Nearly half an hour thus passed over until the officers returned, bring ing with them aud carefully guarding Ba ron Pregli, whom they took to the pn on usually assigued to politcal offenders. From the action ot the police, no one cau tell what is the otfence^which he is charged with : he had uo hearing and probably may have none; his friends may see him again or may not, just as it suits the despotic will of him who rules over Austria In spite of the precautions which are al ways taken in Austria to keep secret the of fences of the nobilty, the story in regard to Baron Pregli’s career has leaked out. It appears that it is he who, in "connection with several devoted servants has for years past rendered the highway to Vienna insecure, as he could carry on these depre dations from his country residence without in the slightest measuie, incurring the sus picious of the authorities. It is a remarka- Methodist Episcopal General Con fereiice. This body, which has been in session at Boston for twenty-seven days, adjourned on Tuesday to meet at Indianapolis, Ind., in May, 1856. The session was a very har monious one, and the hospitalities and cour tages of the city geuerously extended to the members. The Traveller thus sums up the prominent business transacted: The long contested questions concerning pewed churches, has been definitely settled, so that it is now at the option of a majority of any and every congregation to decide as to whether the pew system or the free seat system shall prevail in their respective churches, and whether the sexes shall sit apart or not. No change has been made in the regulations concerning the presiding eldership, and the various petitions for the authorization of lay delegations in the sev eral quarterly and annua' conferences have met with a negative response. Four new bishops have been elected, two from the East and two from the West, one of whom ble fact, that the Baron had actually stood \ fakes the place of Bishop Hainline, resign- in the pay of the police, a situation which ; ed on account of ill health, and another he probably coveted only for the purpose j the late Bishop Bedding.

She hath fallen very low ; Thou, who knew’st her long ago, Little, little, can’st thou see Of her girlhood’s purity ; But though sin hath left its trace On her once sweet, happy face, And that guileless maiden brow— Though life’s glory all hath fled, And life’s shame is her’s instead, Love her still! Love her! let no harsh, cold word, Man, from lips of thine be heard! Woman ! with no lifted eye Mock thou her deep misery ; Weep ye—tears, tears alone, To our world-forsaken one— Love her still! Love her! let her feel your love; Summer showers that fall above Fainting blossoms leave with them Fresh’ned leaf and straignt ned stem ; Sunshine oft doth give again Bloom, the bitier storm hath taken; And this human love of ours, By the world’s poor faded flowers, May be found as dear a boon As God’s blessed rain and sun, To restore their native hue, And their native fragrance too— Love her still! Gather round her, weep and pray! Clasp her, lead her from the way She doth journey—tenderly, From the wroug and misery, To the better paths where Peace Wailed her, wiih sweet release, From life’s heart-ache ; so once more In her breast the hope of yore May be lit—that blessed hope, That with early loss doth cope, Earthly sin and earthly shame, Till earl-1 is but a name, And the rescued Soul is given With its treasure unto Heaven. Oh ! bethink you of the bliss That will fill your heart with this, Loving friends, what time ye see Shadow after shadow flee From her pale, sad face—what time, Soaring in a thought sublime, Ye shall know the while ye pray, To his angels God doth say, Love her still! to staunch the blood, which flowed in tor rents from the ghastly wound. For some minutes the highwaymen looked upon this mournful sceue, until a low moan trom their leader reminded them of the necessity of giving him that attention which his con dition peremptorily called for. A few min utes sufficed to prove that he was not dan- gerouely wounded ; the bullet, alter fractu ring the slender arm of Miss Perry, had spent itself against his chest, causing what the Germans call a Prettschuss, and though it did not penetrate the tiesh, had still suffi cient force to break a bone or two without any other outward sign than a small black spot on the place where the messenger struck. The chief soon recovered and was able to ride otfi while he had left his followers in charge of the carriage, giving strict orders however, not to plunder the Englishman and his family, but to give them every as sistance to enable them to reach Vienna as early as possible, that the young lady might obiain medical aid. The orders were exe cuted to the letter; Mr. Brooks saw his horses put to the carriage by his late assail ants, who exhibited the most respectful bearing towaids him, and seemed rather to wish him good than evil. So much indeed was he taken by the conduct of the men, that on parting he gave a diamond ring of great value to him who had been left in command by the chief, with orders to hand it over to his master, as a token of his grat itude for the consideration which had been extended to the suffering lady. The occurrence caused extraordinary sen sation at Vienna. Apart from the bold ness of the act, the standing of Mr. Biooks Brooks had sent bun, as the leader of high waymen, three years before, aud appeal to her to become Ins, since she had once been chosen to be the instrument to save his life. So far from tins confession having the effect of soiteniiij^her feelings, she became all the more prejudiced against him, but pro mised faithfully to keep the secret, if he would not repeat the offensive proposals. Pregli d.d not come near her for a week, but at last attempted to carry her off by the aid of his satellites, and being foiled in this information was given, which led to the ar rest, a» before stated. Three of the Baron’s men have since been arrested, and at his country residence a large quantity of articles were found, ail of which were identified as having been sto len. A True Story.—A lady from the far, far West,’ was with her husband, awakened on the night of their arrival in the city of Penn, by an alarm of fire, and the yells of several Companies of Firemen, as they dashed along the streets. “Husband! husband!” she cried, shaking her worser half into consciousness, “only hear the Injuns! Why this beats all the scalp dances I ever heard!” “Nonsense,’ growled the gentleman, com posing himself to sleep, “there ain t no In dians in Philadelphia.” The next morning, on descending to breakfast, they were saluted with the inqui- ry— “Did you hear the engines last night? what a noise they made!” Turning to her husband with an air of triumph, the lady exclaimed '■'■There!

The “Tract Society of the M. E. Church,” centering at New-York, and the Sabbath School Work, have each been reorganized on an independent basis, with a view to greater efficiency. With the same intent alterations have beeu made in the constitu tion of the Missionary orgsuization. On Tuesday three resolutions were adop ted, one requiring pastors to catechise chil dren in Sabbath schools and at special meetings; another giving all male Sabbath school superintendents, who are church membeis, seats in the quarterly conferences by virtue of their office; and a third provi ding for the publication at New-York, of a new edition of the dicipline. It was announced previous to the ad journment, that $217 had been collected toward erecting two monuments to the Bishops whose remains lie in Mt. Olivet Cemtery, Baltimore. A Serious Mistake.—The Houston (Tex as) Beacoftsaysasomewhatamusing though rather serious atf’air occurred not long since near Spring Creek, in the lower part ot Iowa, who had been peddling about the country, and who had realized some $3DO or $400, were met by a wag who told them that the country was infested by numerous bands of robbers, aud they should be care ful how they exposed their cash. This exci ted their imagination, and shortly after they met a respectable citizen attired in Texan hunters’ costume, cap, red flannel shirt, tin horn, rifle, <fec. He inquired if they had seen two young men with whom he had been hunting, and by some means had lost trace of. On receiving an answer in the negative he left them. As soon as he got out of sight, the peddlers, firmly convinced that he was the chief of one of the gangs of robbers, left the road and struck into the woods. They had not gone far before they came upon another rough-looking customer, one of the companions of the hunter they had previously met. Taking him for a rob ber, and fearing that he would shoot them if they attempted to retreat, they immediately drew their revolvers and commenced firing at him. The hunter retreated, and endeav ored to explain, but they would listen to nothing, aud kept shooting away. He blew his horn for his companion, who came up just in time to hear a ball whistle close by his ear. The hunters finding remonstrance useless, and being excellent shots, brought the peddlers down the first fire. The mat ter was then explained, and the hunters con veyed them to a house, where their wounds were dressed. Women’s Rights Convention. West Chester, Pa., June 3. The convention met at 9 o’clock. The business committee reported for considera tion of the convention a series of resolutions congratulating the world on the on the ad vance made in the doctrines held by the convention; denying the right of Legisla ture to endow institutions whose advanta ges women were precluded from enjoyihg ; asking for an alteration of the laws, where by the wife may inherit the estate of her husband, as he inherits hers, and be regar ded as the guardian of her children, and de manding that remuneration for equal servi ces may be the same to women as men. The consideration of these resolutions was postponed for the present, to hear a letter read from Mary Mott, of Indiana, and to allow Ann Preston to give an expo sition of the views of the convention. The addresses set forth that women de mand and equality before the law; that the property of the husband should descend to the wife, as his only heir; that women should be permitted to hold offices of trust and profit, and so trained to unfold her na ture that very path should be regarded as her appropriate sphere, wherever duty pointed. These views were ably maintained by Mrs. Nichols, Mrs. Gage. Mrs. Rose, Lucre- tia Mott, and adopted as the sentiments of the convention. Mrs. Nichols maintained that the slow advancement of all reforms heretofore, was owing to the want of women’s personal co operation, and predicted that in less than ten years women would be free. A committee was appointed to advance the legal and political rights of women, by preparing and circulating petitions, and ac ting in such other way as might be necessa- ry. After pointing a committee on publica tion, the convention adjourned at 5 o’clock sine die. 28T A colony of sixty persons, gathered from Northampton, Mass., Brooklyn, and Auburn, New York, all firm believers in what is termed the Spiritual Philosophy (announced by A J. Davis, et al.,) have pur chased 9000 acres of laud in a splendid lo cation, about 40 miles from the head of steamboat navigation on the Kanawha, and 50 miles from Charleston, Va., upon which they have settled. They do not have a community property, but each man is stew ard of his own substance—“maintaining unity of Faith in the bonds of Peace.” On the property purchased, are mills, a tavern stand, post-office and store. Among the emigrants is Rev. T. L. Harris, of N. York, wh(Tis to edit a weekly puper, soon to be established by the Society.—Springfield Republican. The Sense ef Being married. Lord Campbell says that in Scotland a man can scarcely tell whether be is married or not. How different is the caise in this happier part of the kingdom! Here, every moment of» husband’s domestic life is : al sensible assurance of the fact, that he is blest with a wife. When he comes down in the morning—if he can possibly have forgotten that fact—be finds ins newspaper aired for him, his egg and toast ready, his tea ma^e, and the kettle, simmering on the fire, AU these preparations for his comfort have been made by her. And there she sits, ready either to divert him with pleasant observations, or if be is inclined to read, to busy herself with the arrangements of the table and not only to remain silent herself, but also to keep the children, if there are any, from disturbing him too. Should he have committed a slight im prudence overnight, and have a headache in consequence, she condoles with him, and administers his soda water. Wheu he ri ses to go out, his boot hooks are at hand, so are his boots, probably warmed; when he returns, the best dinner the house can afford awaits him. If he expresses a wish he finds that it has been anticipated; if he makes a remark it is assented to. The stocking be puts on, has been darned or marked by her; every change of linen reminds him that she sewed on the buttons. Yes; well does the Englishman know that he is married, by feeling at every turn, the sweet pleasure of the conjugal tie.
