This is a beautiful crowd to be affiliated with, truly. The Southern Opposition will, of course, repel the insinuation that they have any affiliation with Northern fanatics. We do not charge them with any sympathy with that class, as regards their peculiar views up on the subject of slavery ; but they cannot de ny that there is an identity of purpose, a con cert of action to effect the same end, to ac complish the same object, and that is to break down the present National Administration.— In this effort they can work together, and thereby achieve, if possible, a common victo- y.

M. Smith was called to the Chair, and Lewis H. Clarke requested to act as Secretary. The company resolved itself into a Light Infantry Company. L.

An accident occurred at the Boston gas me tre works on Wednesday, attended by the most serious consequences, and also by the most miraculous escape from death. From the Bee we gather the following particulars : A station meter ot large capacity, and made of cast iron, for the city of Cambridge, was undergoing the process of examination, Mr. James R. Darracott, the agent of the works and Daniel Eaton and John Campbell, me chanics, being in the room at the time. One of the men let off a small quantity of water from the meter, which created a vacuum in the chamber, which, unexpectedly contained a quantity of gas. This caused a draught through the aperture. Unfortunately a lamp was near the hole, iu the hands of one of the workmen, the flame of which ignited the gas, and the explosion immediately followed. 'The meter was shattered into a number of pieces which were thrown with fearful speed at va rious parts of the room, shaking the entire building like an earthquake, and greatly alarming the inmates. Mr. Darracott was thrown a considerable distance being struck by several pieces of the iron. When pieked up he was unconscious. On examination, it was found that Mr. Darracott’s leg, just above the ankle, was badly fractured. A piece of the iron had also struck the left shoulder, in juring it badly, but fortunately not fracturing any bones. _ Mr. Eaton was also thrown to the other side of the room, and when picked up was nearly unconscio is. It was found on exami- I nation that the elbow bones ot his left arm | were badly fractured—in fact, crushed some ! two inches. 'Hie physicians subsequently took from bis arm several pieces of bone re duced to splinters and crumbs. There was a large gash over his eye, caused by a piece of the flying iron. His injuries are very bad. It is doubtful if his arm is saved. Mr. Campbell was also thrown a considerable distance, and was struck in tin- breast, evidently by a large piece ot iron. The escajic from instant death of all three '• men is providential. The piece of iron which Mr. Darracott upon the forehead, had it not FRIDAY, JULY 1, 1859. An Office Abolished. We are informed that Gov. Brown has abol ished the office of Attorney for the Western & Atlantic Railroad. As most of the litigation for the Road, has been conducted by local counsel, the Governor is of opinion that there is no longer a sufficient reason why the Road should pay a salary of $2,000 per annum, t£ an Attorney. In future, the Auditor of the Road will be required to employ local counsel to attend to the litigation of the Road, ma king in each case a specific contract as to the amount of compensation which counsel are to receive, which is in no case to exceed a reas onable fee, in case of a similar litigation be tween individuals.

ARMORY HALL, | Savannah, June 25th 1859. f At a meeting of the “Chatham Artillery,” held this evening, at Armory Hall, tlie fol lowing resolutions were unanimously adopt ed. Resolved, 'That the thanks of tlie Chatham Artillery be, and they are, hereby, tendered to the Central Railroad & Banking Company, for their distinguished mark of friendship, in pla cing at our disposal an elegant train of cars, complete in all its appointments, and for con veying us, in the same, to and from tlie City of Nashville. Resolved, That our thanks are due, and they are, hereby, returned to tlie ofii ers in charge of the said train, and to all on board engaged in the direction and management of the same, for their uniform courtesy and constant care. Resolved, That we sincerely appreciate the kind reception extended to us, as a Company, by the officers and members of tlie Macon Vol unteers, the Flovd Rifles, the Bibb County' Cavalry, and the Artillery corps of the City of Macon. Resolved, That we will ever remember, with pleasure, the warm reception given us bv tlie Gate City' Guards, of Atlanta. Resolved. That our thanks are due to the officers and Cadets of the Georgia Military In stitute, at Marietta for, the complimentary salute with which we were greeted, whilepas sing through that city. Resolved, That we sincerely appreciate, and will ever cherish, in grateful remembrance, the distil guished reception, the marked cour tesies, and the numberless acts of kindness extended to us by the Mayor and city' author ities. the volunteer military organization, and the citizens of Nashville. Resolved, That our visit to the “City of the Rocks,” our excursion to the Hermitage, and every incident connected with onr sojourn in Nashville, will be cheeiished among the pleas ant recollections of our time-honored corps.

R. • As a Georgian feelir j State, and desirous of seeing her ably repre- resented in the National Councils, anil her present character and position ,as one of the ; Southern States maintained, we feel that it i cannot be better accomplished than by hav- : ing able, bold and fearless men from each j Congressional District. Not narrowing our- i selves down to our own; we would be glad to ! seethe Hon. A. R. Wright renominated by his j party to represent the 5th Congressional Dis- j trict. As a Democrat he is about as honest as i any in his district, and as far as we know, has as much ability' if not more than any' of the j “lior.se lot” full of aspirants that are anxious ; to serve their country from that section. The i purity of Judge Wrights moral character is I unquestionable we believe, and his political ! .acts are about as good as could be expected.— | We do not endorse of course, his political ac- j tious, but we admire the moral nerve he has j shown on svcral occasions when he believes j himself right, and in the late Democratic Convention, he bore himself like a man. As a member from Georgia, ttie State would not I suffer in reputation whenever lie took the | floor. We have said thus much forjudge Wright, i believing that we are unable as an Opposition j party, to carry the Fiftli District. If our ! friends in that district, think it advisable to run a full Opposition candidate, we would be more than gratified to give him all tlie aid and comfort we are able. We would say to them as one feeling an interest in party suc cess, eschew try all means ahybird.-Southern Recorder. Dentil of W. H. Southcott. We regret to learn that Mr. W. H. South- cott, well known as the proprietor of a popu lar eating saloon, of this city, and a very wor thy man, was accidentally drowned, yesterday, about six miles from the city', in a creek lead- into Vernon River. He was spending the afternoon in the country, with his family, and paddling about iu a boat for bis amusement. By some accident unknown, the boat capsized, and lie was precipitated into the water. Not understanding the art of swimming, he imme diately sunk, and upon coming up, Mr. Uriah Cranston, who was near by, plunged into the water and succeeded in getting hold of him ; he was, however, muoli excited and unman ageable, and Mr. Cranston had to break loose from him, in order to save himself. Air. Southcott then disappeared, and his body was found, about an hour afterwards, in the shal lows near by, to which it had been drifted by the tide. Mr. Southcott was a native of England, about 43 years of age, and leaves a wife and one or two small children to lament the sud den calamity that has come upon them. He was a member of the Chatham Artillery, and recently accompanied his corps 11 Nashville. He was a member of the Masonic fraternity', Sons of Malta, and, we believe, other benevo lent institutions of thecity.—[Savannah Re publican. Dentil of n Veteran Missionary. Rev. Samuel A. Worcester, for a third of a century a missionary of the American Board, died at Park Hill, Cherokee Nation, on the 20th of April. He commenced his labors in that part of the old Cheroke country which is now embraced within the limits of Georgia, but when the Indians removed to tlieir pres ent home he went with them.—St. Louis Christian Advocate. Many Georgians well recollect Mr. Worces ter. He may r have been and we hope was a good man—meant different from what he did —but he did not go with tlie Indians, when they went to their present home. He unwit tingly opposed the enforcement of the. Geor gia Laws over the Cherokee territory within her own jurisdiction. He was convicted ot the offence and was imprisoned for near two years in our Penitentiary, declining to accept a pardon from our State Executive, as other persons did, offered <>n condition that they go boyond on. State limits. Finding martyrdom availed him nothing, he ultimately yielded when he followed the Indians; We refer to these facts merely as a matter of history.— ’ Southern Recorder. “Some complain of Gov. Brown’s appoint ing Linton Stephens Judge of the Supreme Court. VVell, gentlemen, you are honest,, no doubt, in your opinion, but please wait a while before you sit in judgment, and recol lect how many of us feared Joseph E. Brown was not a man of sufficient ability when he was first nominated. Do we think so now ? I think not. Recollect also that when young David was going against Goliah, his brethren said they knew the naughtiness of his heart, but he slew Goliah. Now, I think Governor Brown made an excellent appointment, for I know Linton Stephens. I have served with him two sessions in the Legislature, and un hesitatingly' say, in my opinion, give him the same experience, and he is but little behind Alex. H. Stephens.” The above was taken from the ‘Empire State,” and appeared over the signature of William Mosely. We would not lie at all sur prised if Mr. Stephens makes a good Judge. Mr. Mosely is a good judge of character, and we would not be at all surprised if the few, who have' abused Gov. Brown, and made lit tle of Mr. Stephens on account of the appoint ment of Mr. S. to the Supreme Bench, will, after awhile, see their mistake, whether they confess it- or not. V. A Christian Governor. Cbrsstianity is adapted to man as man.— There is no station in life, proper to be filled at all which it doesnot the better prepare man to fill. It is greatly to be regretted that the exemplifications of this, especially in positions of public and political prominence, are not Ancient Babylon. Very little is recorded of the early history' of the city of Babylon. Its foundations were laid, it is supposed, by Nimrod, great grand son of Noah, not long after the dispersion of Babel.

Brown. I • An enormous ditch lined on both sides with Trip to Marietta——Marietta Female College, Sic. We have just-returned from our attendance upon tlie commencement exercises of the above named school. Rev. Wm. H. Robert is the President. He has one of the lovliest localities for a school in the State- We did not get to hear the examinations. '1 he com mittee of Examiners reported publicly, very’ favorably and only what was true in their judgment. The Young Ladies performed well at tlie Concert Tuesday night. The composi tions read on Wednesday were well rt ad and elegantly written, 'this is a young school.— We hope Mr. R. will succeed. It is an indi vidual enterprise and as Mr. R. has assumed the expense of purchasing anil fitting up good school accommodations for the public. Lhe citizens of Marietta are under stronger obligations to give him patronage. Patrons of Female schools in many instances, have to spend considerable money to accommodate their children. Ten years ago this month, we lived in Marietta. Wonderfully has Ma rietta improved since that time. Fires have licked up tlie shanties that used to be around the public square and some tolera ble buildings beside and excellent brick build- ngs have taken their places. One burnt corner still remains. Let it tie improved quick if not quicker. It mars the beauty of the town. We were taken by a friend through tlie new Hotel, built aud owned by Mr. Cole, containing over a hundred rooms. It is near ly completed. Boarders have taken some of the rooms already. We doubt whether there is a better arranged Hotel in tlie State. The rooms are large and easily ventilated and are now being nicely furnished. Marietta may- well be proud of her new Hotel. Nichols and Fletcher who have taken the Hotel seem to be fitting up things in a way not only to ac commodate, but to please the fancy of their patrons. Low country people who wish to spend tlie summer in Marietta have now in creased inducements to gratify their wishes. Marietta is one of the prettiest towns in the State, having many elegant private residen ces. We learned that the Military school is at low- ebb. The Trustees had a meeting while we were in town. We heard they intended soon to re-organize the Faculty and try to fix up matters so as to restore the School in public favor. We don’t pretend to say- who is at fault. But we know that something must be wrong somewhere. Such a school at such a place, all right ought to have at least 150 stu- itents. But to return, the valedictory- address of Miss Varner w as No. 1. It was well read.— Of its kind we have seldom heard it surpassed. V. made the concluding address upon tlie subject—“The pioper position of woman, so cially, intellectually’, morally—man’s greatest glory, and society’s best developement.” We must not end this hasty sketcli without writing that we had the pleasure of meeting the Editors of the “Advocate and-Patriot” and found them still sociable anil wearing more smiles upon their faces than we think are generally found upon the editorial coun tenance, Success attend them. V. could not but feel a profound respect for State which had, by- a popular vote, placed such a man at the head of its affairs. This is certainly significant of a high order of general intelligence and virtue, and, with 'many oth er excellencies, entitles her to an unveniable position among the first States of our Union. All this will seem natural enough, when it is stated that Gov. Brown is a man whom any true Christian and Baptist would delight to hail as a brother. I had personal and pleas ing evidence of his consistent maintainance of this exalted character. At a general Sunday choolcelebration, on a Sabbath afternoon, in Savannah, he made the dosing address; and a most appropriate and excellent address it was. in which he took occasion to let it be known that he was a Baptist, and that lie had l»een both a teacher and a superintendant in a Sab bath .school. I had the pleasure a few da vs after, of accompanying him on a visit to the Bethesda Orphan Asylum, which is situated about 10 miles from Savannah, an which was originally established by the celebrated Geo. Whitfield. Here he made a capital speech to the little boys, and proposed to present to each one of them a coppy of the Bible, on their promising ti read it through,- which they- all promised to do. But I was particu larly struck with his noble consistency’ and ex emplary conduct as a Christian; in declining, as is his habit, to drink anything stionger than lemonade, when invited by a large circle of friends to do so. And I am told that on the occasion of his inauguration, while assuring his friends of his cordial desire to receive and entertain them as usual, (when a ball hod been the custom) he yet insisted upon his right to govern his family as before, and would therefore by no means allow either drinking or dancing in his house. What an excellent commentary is this on the passage, “Be not confirmed to this world.” In this world but bricks, and filled with water, encompassed : the whole city —the size of which may be near ly estimated, from the fact that the walls of the city, were composed entirely of clay taken out of it. The city was entered through the walls, by one hundred gates, twenty-five on each side, composed of s >lid brass. Between every two of the gates, were three t were, ten feet' iu height, also one on each of the four corners, and three between the several corner towers, and the first gate making in all, three hun dred and sixte -n. From the gates on one side of the city’, to those on the opposite side, went streets one hundred and filty feet in width - — These fifty’ streets crossing each other at right angles, divided the city into six hundred and seventeen squares. The houses stood on these squares, a short distance from each other, lac ing tlie streets. The central parts of these nu merous squares were laid out in gardens, walks, and yards, and occupied for many eth er useful, and ornamental purposes, so that from the many vacant spaces, not more than half the garden was built upon. Next to the wall on each side of the city, was a street two hundred feet wide, and fifteen miles long, (the extent ot tlfo city) in length. Tlie houses were built only on one side of the street—-on the squares fronting the wall. The river Euphrates, or rather a branch of it. ran directly across the city, from North to ►south. A wail of the same thickness, anil not of it. Such a man is the true “salt of the ‘ ' u m i slln °unded the city, earth.” Long may he live to wear the lau- was built on e ich side of the river. In these reds so freely accorded him, and to exemplify walls where the river was intersected by the streets, were massive brazen gates. From the tlie noble virtues of a model Christian ruler. J. M.

General News. The war news :s unimportant. The Austrians were retreating, and all the Sardinians advancing. The French troops were being concentrated for a decisive attack - A battle was expected within % week. A naval demonstration was to be made in the Adriatic sea. It was expected that Lord Palmerston had formed a strong Cabinet including Russell, Gadstone, Elgin, Cobdeu, Gibson and Gran ville. Gen Ginlay had been superceded in the com mand of the second Austrian army by Gen. Solick. Tlie Austrians report that Gen. Urban had repulsed Garibaldi. The latter was at Bes- cia. Additional Austrian troops were moving to wards Italy, aud Napoleon had called for an additional bundled thousand troops to be siege the fortresses. The Austrians are said to be preparing at Mantua for an attack on the allies. The mobolization of the Prussian army and the more hostile attitude of Germany created uneasiness. Kossuth had passed through France for Italy. Prince Napoleon’s corps had commenced moving. The Austrians are reported to have the Val- teline, (the upper valley of the Adda.) The English Parliament had re-assembled, hut Lord Palmerston had postponed his pro gramme. The Paris Bourse was depressed. Further by the Arabia.

Goil made tlie country, man made the city. Cain went out from tlie presence of the Lord and ‘nuilded a city.’ Nevertheless, we love cities. We love their bustle, tlieir throb bing life, their mighty influences. To them we look for the developement and praeticil application of great ideas. In them we find tlie liest and worst of humanity. Learning anil ignorance, wealtli and poverty, virtue and vice are there in strange contrast. Y'et cities would die out from the destructive agencies at work within them were they not replenished by an influx of life from tlie country. Civilization, like Antaeus of old, is really strong and enduring only when it touches the earth. Its robust and manly vir tues spring from the soil. Tlie enervating vices of cities have done more to cover the I e Rg r states th it its earth with their ruins than pestilence and the j .. . ,, sword of the conqueror. But cities are not f our theme. Nor will we attempt- to prove just now that the axis of the earth and tlie hub of the universe protrude through tlie island of Manhattan. In consideration of its age, however, the Knickerbocker, the Maga zine of the Knickerbockers, in tlie beginning of the Fifty-fourth volume—equally removed from the vanity of youth, and growing old only as the best wines grow olil—may perhaps be allowed a tew remarks on the Collection of houses at the embochurt of the Hudson, know n to our ancestors as ‘New Amsterdam,’ and to whose Patron-Saint- we used to chant tiie night before Christmas, in addition to our prayers : ‘Saint Nicholas, good, holy man, Put your best Tabbard on you can, And in it go to Amsterdam.’ etc. While a student of medicine in Vienna, be fore it was onr (and onr readers’) misfortune to lay aside the scalpel for the pen, we remem ber counting on one occasion in the great au ditorium of the University - the representative of twenty-five different nations speaking as many languages and professing almost as many re ligions. Yet no city fn the world is so cosmo politan, is so perfect a mosaic of nationalities as New York. Every langvage, every faith, and almost evary custom and costume of civ ilized Europe are here represented. The pent- up streams of emigration in in the olil world, like the fabled fountain of Arethusa, have found new channels hitherward ; and the long welterring billows, pursuing eaeli other with even march over the broad Atlantic main cast into this mart of the nation the best and the worst of her swarming millions, witn tlie treasure and the refuse of her ancient civiliza tions. Pashas hold soirees at our hotel, and the expected Japanese envoy will be a lion, while pig-toiled Chinamen, the less fortunate representatives of the Flowery kingdom, chin- chin for alms in onr streets ; and dark-eyed gipsies wander unnoticed in the midst of us, though thej r speak a dialect of the Sanscrit, believe in the transmigration of souls, and re tain in their shadowy faith traces of tlie an cient Fire Worship. To a foreigner New York is a standing or rather an ever-va.ying wonder, that has risen like a phoenix from the waves. Change is stomped on everything. ‘Let us pull down our ware-houses and build greater,’ is the motto of her princely merchants. Boasting of | the best government in tlie world, we have scarcely any ; jealous of our repni lican equal ity, the off-scouring of European nobility finds ready acceptance in our society ; proud of our material achievements and our industry the names at least of many articles in com mon use with us are manufactured abroad.— ‘Enterprisehath herean everlasting cirnival; fashion is often rampant; financial crisis sweep away fortunes ; reputations are made and lost with magical facility ; friends come and go : life and death, toil and amusement, worth and folly, truth and error, poetry and matter of fact, alternate with more than dra matic ccleritv. ” V. several streets, there were gradual descents to the river, which was crossed in boats. Through these gates which were incautiously left op en. ( yrus and his army entered, having turned the course of the river, and took this splendid city. Such are some of the particu lars which have been recorded, relative to the once “golden city,” and “glory of king doms.” While her walls were echoing, and Hinds of mirth and fes- all human appearance, re-echoing with th tivity, and when i they were destined to stand to the latest gen erations, Jeremiah prophesied, “that it should become dntabded. tli.it it shout I net be inhabited, that the intd he ists of the field should l>e there." History lias since conlimred the prediction the prophet. Long before the Christian era, we are told th it it had became a place of “sol itude.” and tint it was “lying waste, and neglected.” In the fourth century, wearein formed that “its walls served as a fence, and thecity as a pirk. in 'riiich the Kiny of Per sia, kept iri/d luaits for hunting.” A traveller in the twelfth century, found it overrun with serpents, and scorpion*. In 1743. another trav- ruins were so effected, hardly anv vestiges of them, to point out the situation of the city. By one who has recently visited the spot, we are told that “there is not now, a stone to toll whore Babylon was situated. T. B. L. Atlanta. Ga.. June 20th. 1859. I COMMUNICATED. | Messrs. Editors: Among the names suggest ed for Congressional honors in the 5th Dis trict, I wish, without tlie slightest disparage ment of any one of them, to propose the name of Col. J. T. Taylor, as a suitable candidate to represent said District in the next Congress. Unlike as he is to a great many keen-scented aspirants of the present day, having been a Democrat from principle—being found at all times in thickest of the tight whenever anil wherever the principles needed an advocate— and believing, as I do, that true devotion to principle should be rewarded, and that genu ine merit should not be overlooked : and when the time arrives to put- a standard bearer in the field, should the party be at a loss to know which one of the many worthy and welt qual ified to promote, that the claims of this young and talented Democrat will receive a respect ful hearing. CHATTOOGA. From tbe Southern Cultivator. Tree Peddler* from the North—Caution III Editor Southern Cultivator :—I deem it my duty to inform you, and through you, the agricultural public, of a gross which a party of Fruit Tree Peddlers from the North are at tempting (and I fear but too successfully) to practice upon our people. The whole coun try has been carefully districted off and then closely canvassed by these gentry, whose style of operations is something like this: They prepare strong glass jars or cans, filled with the best specimens of northern fruit, preserv ed in Alcohol, and exhibit these to the ignor ant and unsuspecting, as samples of what may be produced here, from trees which they will furnish. These fruits (seen through such a medium) are greatly magnified in size, and well calcu- ted to deceive and humbug people. Now I will lay down a few propositiems which you, in common with all experienced Southern horticulturists, know to be correct: and then if our people are foolish enough to invest their money in worthless stuff, let them suffer the consequences: 1st. None of the leading varieties of North ern fall or winter apples aie worth planting anywhere South of Virginia. Our seasons are so long anil warm that they ripen premature ly in July or August, and fall off the tree rot ten aud worthless. 2d. The only late keeping apples of any val- ule whatever for the South, are Southern Seedlings, raised here. Of.these, our South ern N urserymen have now at least 50 varieties that cannot be obtained from the North, and the best of which are superior to any grown there. I include in this list, the Man- gum (or Carter^ the Shockley, Equinitely, Stephenson, Oconee Greening, Ralph, Nicka- jack, Green Crank, Limbertwig, and many others—all of Southern origin, ami better in every respect.than the Newtown Pippins,Spys, Swains and Spitzenbergs of the North. A few of the early Northern Apples do very well here ; but, in procuring these, always get trees grown in the South. 3d. Our Southern Seedling Peaches, in their soason, are also better adapted to our climate and superior iu other respects to the Northern and European varieties. This is the prop r climate of the Peach, and onr trees are far more vigorous any healthy than those of the ‘ North. Therefore, do not purchase any peach trees from the North. If you want the Nor thern varieties, get those that have been graft ed er budded on Southern stocks. 4th. The same caution will hold good in re gard to all other varieties of fruit trees, such as pear, plum, apricot, Nectarine, Quince, &c., &e. And in planting a vineyard, get South ern grown grape cuttings and roots whenever it is possible. 5tli. Do not be fooled out of vour money by fancy-colored pictures of Currants, Goose berries, &c. These fruits are not adapted to our climate—they have been tried a thousand times, and always failed. We have a tetter current than any cultivated at the North, viz. the Amalanchier, or “Currant Tree,” [Ame- lanchier Canadensis, or Botryapiuin] some times called “Shad Flower” or “May Cher ry.” This delicious fruit can be raised on any soil and bears profusely. It may be pro pagated readily from suckers, and I hope our Southern Nurserymen will, hereafter keep a larger stock of plants on hand. 9th. Southern Nurserymen are now fully prepared to supply all desirable varieties of fruit and ornamental trees, vines, roses, &c.— grown with especial reference to our own cli mate ; and tlie Southerner who sends or gives his orders to Northern Nurseries or the ped dlers (while he is, perhaps, politcallv advoca ting disunion and non-interconvsel can hard ly be considered a consistent man or a true patriot. 7th. Tlie cause of Southern Horticulture and Promology has teen sadly damaged by our failures with Northern fruits ; so much so that many of our people arc afraid to plant trees at nil: not knowing the difference be tween those which are and which are not adapted to our climate. This retarding of the natural progress of our country in fruit cul ture lias already cost us thousands if not mil lions of dollars, and stilt we are sending our money to the North for trasn not worth half tlie cost of freight ? Was there ever such “moonstruck” folly and inconsistency? 8th. To succeed in growing fruit in the South, get from Southern Nurseries, trees of Southern varieties, which are known by expe rience to suit onr climate, and let the intiner ating venders of Northern trees plant their “scions” in “free soil. - ’ What say yon Mr. Editor ?

Fashion kills more women than sorrow.— Obedience to fashion is a greater transgression of the laws of woman’s nature, a greater inju ry to her physical and mental constitution, than the hardships of poverty and neglect.— The slavewoman at her tasks will live and grow old, and see two or three generations of tier mistresses fade a- il pass away. Tlia wash erwoman, with scarce a ray of hope to cheer her in her toils, will live to see all her fash ionable'sisters die around her. Tlie kitchen- maid is hearty and strong, while her lady lias to be nursed like a sick baby. It is a sail truth, that fashion-pampered women are al most worthless for all the great ends of hu man life. They have but little force of char acter : they have still less power of moral will and quite as little energy. They live for no great purpose in Jife ; they accomplish no worthy ends. They are only doll forms in the hands of milliners and servants, to te dressed and fed to order. They dress nobody, bless nobody, and save nobody. They write no books, and set no examples of virtue anil wo manly life. If they rear children, servants and nurses do all, save to conceive and give them birth. And when reared, what are they ? What do they amount to, but weaker scions of the stock ! Whoever heard of a fashionabe woman’s child exhibiting any virtue or pow er of mind, for which it became eminent ? — Read tlie biographies of our great and good men and women. Not one of them had a fashionable mother. They nearly all sprang from strong-minded women, who had ateut as little to do with fashion as with the chang ing clouds - -[State Press.

THE SIXTH WEEK OF THE WAR—THE GREAT BAT- g§f“ An editor in the Northern part of the State recently took a cotemporary to ask for copying choice scraps from his editorial col umns and not giving ‘ ‘credit’ ’ for them. The cotemporary replied by saying he “did not do a credit business.” Slander.—Let no one suppose that by act ing a good part through life he will escape slander, There will be those even who hate them for the very qualities, that ought to pro cure esteem. “Ma, is aunt got honey in her mouth ?”— “No ; why do you ask such a question ?” “Cause that leetle man with a heap ’<> hair on his face, cotched hold of her and said he was going to take the honey from her lips, ri nd she said, ‘Well, make haste !’ ” ‘*I>ulIii»K” the I.a«ly’s Lap-Dog. It is state 1 that some twenty men in Lon don cam their livelihood by ‘‘duffing’’—viz : painting common birds to represent some rare and foreign sort, or who invent non-existing breeds. The more outlandish a bird is made to look, the more chance there is of selling it. A vulgar rat was once transformed into ail el egant microscopic dog for a lady’s pet. For a few weeks tlie little quadruped enjoyed the cares anil caresses of the admiring mistress, till the growth of its claws enabled it to take a promenade, by means of the curtains, to the ceiling, and so the workmanship of the “duf fer’ ' stood confessed. It is calculated that in London there are two hundred thousand cats, and it is estimated that to support them and the dogs, fifty-two thousand horses are annu ally boiled down and served out by one thous and men, at a cost of one Hundred thousand pound sterling per annum to the city. Another ATctim.—Hon. D. F. Robinson, cx- memter of Congress, from Chambersbnrg, Pa., district, died.-Frirlay from a disease con tracted at the National Hotel in Washington iu the spring of 1858.
