Chart Birds. —-V writer in th« Boston Gazette ,
give the following excellent advice in regard to the
election and management of these popular house
hold pets, which have become bo plenty, That in’he
larger cities a home is scarce considered complete
which lacks a canary :
AH healthy bird* at this season are sprightly and
vigorous, and so full of song that there is no tear of
' any mistake as to The male birds, when
j singing, in a constant, state of motion, dancing
; along their perches. The females simply “jabber,”
j and show no particular signs of liveliness. If you
i want a good Kongfttftr, you will sometimes have to
j dispense with beauty. The brightest colors are
fr. quently the most delicate. Never cbo >se a bird
whose feathers are rough, or ey-s dim. If the bird
be trim and joyous, he may be regarded Ui in good
health. Be especially careful where and with
whom you deal ; and always see that you Lave the
bird you select Borrow the <-. tge, leave a deposit,
and never let the dealer touch the bird you have
purchased.
While making your selection, lake plenty of time
for decision. Exercise yonr taste, and you may be-
I '.iTie j os-.m s-< dos a really “musical” bird There
is, of course, a great difference in the powers of the
various performers. Some are shrill and noisy ;
other* sing piano, and rejoice in the dulcet notes ot
harmony.
Your bird selected, and placed in a nice hand
some-cage (l shall have something to s«y shortly
about showy cages,) enrol iff m immediately as one
of th * family, and ever after consider him as such.
It- will then be “yours for ever.”
Hang your bird low and ui a cheerful situation,
always protecting him from heat, cold and draught..
If you have more birds titan one, suspend them ,
above each other. They may hear, but Humid not
bo permitted to see each other. Maintain the
Htriotect cleanliness in their cages, and always sup
ply them with ’lie best seed—canary', tlax and rape,
mixed ; the fir.-d in excess. Give them clean water
twice daily, and let their perches be cleaned at
h ast ow *a ue k. Provide them, too, with plenty
of course red gravel, changed every other day, and
let some wel: bruised old mortar be mixed with it.
Now for “ luxuries.” Tuese consist of hard boiled
yolk »f li>fth egg, a morsel of sweet cake or mealy
p>i at", and crumb of bread moistened in the mouth
* i'ii brown sugar. Let them see you preparing
tiffs, and then watch their movements. Add un
occasional hempseeri. Lettuce, shepherds’ purse,
groundsel, biantain, chick wee d mul warter cress —
tiieK*- are the salads in which they delight.
Always present some one or all of the above,
lovingly with the linger and thumb. At the same
time make a ’gracious l*ow byway .of courtesy.
The effect of that* bow is magical. It possesses a
rare charm, as is fully verified in my own pets.
Try it,and mark the droll result.
A Beautifyi. Classical Allusion.—Mr. Win
throp, of Massachusetts, in his late address at the
Musical Festival iu Boston, last week, alludes to the
c. ntomplatetl subinarine telegraph in these words :
“On Christina.’ Eve, in the year IS 14, the Treaty
of Peace between Euglaud and the United State
tvas signs il at Ghent —ji v. oi ’liy commeinoiatton of
tiiut bhv.3- ■! t.'Vciit, when the Herald Angels were
beard singing to the sl i pherds ou the plains of Hetb
iei- -m, ‘iVin c on i #( i., good will tow ards men.’—
But that treaty was uc*t known ou this side of the
o-'eah for six or seven weeks after its date. The
gn at battle oi New Orleans, as you well know’, was
l >ught at least two weeks after that, treaty of
peace wfty signed. Our modem system of rail
roads and steamers and telegraphs might have
saved that effusion of fraternal blood, might have
deprived individual heroes, might have deprived
cur country and its history, of all the glory which
belong*d to that really great victory. If thatgigan
tic Ocean Harp, which is at this moment in pro
- es of being strung, whose deep diapason is des
tined ti» produce a more magical music on the sea
than mythology or modern table ever ascribed to
siren, mermaid or Arion ; it the mysterious gamut
of that (Moiound submarine chord had been in suc
cessful operatiob then, as we hope il will soon be,
between St. Johns and Valencia Bay, these cotton
bag vauiparts at Netv Orleans might never been
celebrated m histOT) ; while of those who so gal
lantly detruded them many would not have beer,
laid so low. uud some perhaps would hardly have
risen so high.”
The Pillory and the Lash in Delaware. —
We find iu the Court proceedings at Wilmington,
l >el., the following :
“Joseph Newn a i, tried for prrefiaaing property
from boys who bad purloined or sto’en it. was oou
vi ted. The Court : nteiie« d him to pay a fine of
siff,ar.d to stand iii the p.Hury one horn <*n the 25Jd
inst.. to l»‘‘ iuiprisei ed fix imr.iths, and wear the
rt> vict’s jacket six months following hU li' erattou.
B<*ode v, ..o was « rvicted of ter.T’ig fT >m
i : - m re of Samuel Ritcl.ie, was seutenceff \b pay
jj*‘U*> 78 as restitution money, to be whipped on the
; Id d.tlant with Id lashes, and to be sold for- a pe
riod not exceeding seven years.”
Vert Curious.—We find the following very
singular statement of facts in the Pennsylvania
2'imcs :
Olympia, April 26, 1857.
Mu. Editor : My ful’u . and mother-in-law were
married on my grand mother’s birth day ; my futller
and motlier were inar led ou the birth day of my
husband l was married to my husband on the
J>irth-day of my youngest aunt, February 7,1849.
1 am now the mother of four children, that were
bom on the 16th. 17th, 18th and 19ihof February .
M.nvh, April and May, IS.iO, *54 and *56. This
is something which I regard as very singular—a
thing probably without a parallel in the United
Slates ; nt least I challenge any mother to produce
a like record of facts.
Yours, truly, Nancy J. Rogers.
A Hole Through the Alleghany Mountains
—The Lew isburg. (Va.,) Chronicle says :
\Ye have the extreme satisfaction of being able
to announce this week, tha: the heading of the Al
leghany Tunnct was driven through on Thursday
last, iff that on Friday some of our fellow-citizens «»f
(4 reen brier passed through the Alleghany mountains,
llolcs were board through on Tuesday, we believe,
aud so accurate hud been the calculations, that the
centres met withiu halt a . inch, and the levels with
in the* third iff an inch By Thursday . the heading
was driven through and light allowed to pass iu.—
The delay predicted this Tunnel would occasion,
,'can no longer be urged as an objection to th- Gov
ingjton and <>:.to ndlroad. The tunnel though nut
co nplete, is far advanced. One third perhaps has
been cleaned up, and is ready for arching.
Tins Timnei being opened fbr a double track
road, and it is'now n well ascertainetkfiact that the
o»t of arching and all, will not exceed theoriginal
cstui :ttes of the chief engineer.

now arraifged. A glance at any recent -map of the
Arrtic regions show.» that nearly the whole area
East and West of the outlet of the fTub river has
been swept by Government oearching exj>editious.
Apart, then from the fact that Esquimaux reports
point to a very limited locality where the great
Arctic mystery lies c<»»K*caled, we are warranted in
hoping ‘ ha* u search within an area embracing net
ir.rr t; an 37U miles of coast, may be rewarded by
d V-oveiyof the Erebus and Terror. Captain
M*Ciintock proposes te make his way down Prjcce
litgeiif’s luiet, and thence through Beilot'a Strait to
i lie field of search ; or should the ice permit, to
pr**ceed direct toil by gc eg aown Peel Sound,
which be has good reasons for believing to be a
strait.
J. prevented by the ice from passing through Bei
h*r’a Strait, or going down Peel Sound, he will
abandon the idea ot taking his ship through these
ebaxmels, and, leaving her in safety in Price
Il enf’s Inlet, will proceed to search Erebus
and Terror by slec'ging partly, ko successfolly

recently transmitted from the United Stales, pray
ing our Admiralty to send the Resolute out on a

with a cauae now stirring ail England.

The Capture of Mo ham me rah. —The Times’
coi respondent writes from the camp before Moham
merah. Much 29:—“Tue English farces have again
proved victorious, and Mokummerah has been cap
tured with the loss of ab >ut ten in killed and
wounded. The whole affair was admirably ma
naged, and the greatest credit is due to all con
<• rued in it. On the rJlst inst., Sir James Ouiram,
with the war steamer and sloopq joined the ship
ping that had preceded him to the Hioutb of the
Shat-00l Arab, aud preparations were immediately
on loot for au advance up the river. On the
ii cruing of the 21th, all the steamers with their
tows got under weigh, aud steamed up uie stream.
The Arabs, on the Persian side, came down the
banks and greeted us as we passed, with shouts
of welcome. The four guu battery the
P ivians had constructed at Buerdeh, had been
removed, so that our vessels passed on without
opposition, and came to anchor before the Arab vil
lage of II urtoh, about 4 miles below Mohammerah.
At Bp. m. a boat was despatched to reconnoitre
a small l®w island iu the centre of the river, lo the
west of the northern fort, with a view of planting a
mortar battery there ; but they found the spot so
swampy tha tthe project was abandoned Next day,
however, a strong rail was made, and during the
night was towed by the Comet and planted in
position, with three 5$ inch and two 8 inch mortars,
under the command of Captain Worgan. At day
break of the 26th, the mortars opened fire, and
great must, have been the consternation of the
enemy, who could s*e nothing before then to give
notice of such a “ good morning,” but a boat load
of pressed hay, moored so as to piptect the raft.
W ithin an hour the war steamers moved up one by
one, two of them taking the Clive and Falkland iu
tow, and;as they came within range, the batteries
opened a raking fire upon them. This was not re
turned till the vessels had got into the best position
t or commanding their works ; then they blazed away
in earnest, and, at the distance of two miles the
scene looked like a grand display of fireworks.
The enemy fought bravely and well, but in about
two hours* their fire slackened, and the signal was ,
hoisted on Commodore Young’s ship for theadvance
< f the transports. One of our shells now fell upon a
magazine near the northern fort, which exploded
amid the cheers of our crews and soldiers. As the
t roop ships and steamers moved onward, they were
fin d up*, n by two field pieces which the enemy had
planted in ttie date groves below the southern
t«*rt, and also by bands of matchlock men. A
ball from the latter came in close contact with Sir
James Out ram's foot, but a lucky hookah saved
it. One native, however, was killed by a round
shot on board the Soindian—where Sir James and
his staff' were. The troop-ships and wteamers now
I assed the forts, and anchored (dose to the
banks to the south of Jaber’s fort, and the disem
barkation oft he men, artillery and horses was effect
ed with great dispatch and without any opposition.
A party of Scinde Horse, only forty five m num
ber, under Capt. M. Green, then proceeded to re
connoitre, while our small force, consisting of not
more than 4000 men of all arms, advanced to meet
the enemy. We passed two standing camps full of
public ami private property, but the enemy was
nowhere to be seen. The Scinde Horse had come
upon their rear guard in rapid retreat, aud found
the ground literally covered, with cast away proper
ty, of all kinds. Not having cavalry to pursue the
fly it.g Persians, our troops bivouacked for the night
ou the banks of the Karoom, aud, learning from a
second reconnoitre that the Persian army was still
retiring, we returned to the enemy’s encampment,
which we are still occupying.”
The loss of the Persians in killed and wounded is
estimated at 200, among whom was Agha Jan Khan,
a Serteep, or Brigadier, whose death from the ex
plosion of a shell in the northern fort, seems to have
sp ead a panic among the Persian soldiers. The
Slmadah, on hearing of it, is said to have immedi
ately prepared .'or a retreat. Agha Jan was a brave
soldier, and the enemy’s artillery was fought Tell ;
they stood no chance, however, against the heavy
fire of our ships.
In addition to tho above loss the enemy have left
18 guns and one mortar in our possession ; one of
the former bears an inscription to t lie effect that it
was presented to Shah Abbas by the Emperor in
1848. They only succeeded in taking away five
pieces with them. Seven or eight large magazines
of ammunition were blown up by the enemy, over
and above those which were filed by our shells.—
Large stores of wheat, barley ; and flour have also
fallen to us. besides two standing camps, which in
their precipitate retreat the Persians could not re
move.
Later from the “Sixth ” —We have taken
much interest in the affairs of the Sixth Congress
ional District, and for several reasons : First, we
“know’ the parties” who are figuring so prominent
ly in their present political wrangles; Secondly, Mr.
Cobb’s vacancy is au impoitant one, aud not only
we, but the whole country are looking with interest
to the manner in which it is to be filled; Thirdly, the
war there waging between the two wings of the
Democracy is but a faithful exhibit of the condition
of the party throughout the South. The “overt
act” may be. wanting elsewhere, but the same feel
ing of mutual repulsion exists throughout our bor
ders, and needs only the circumstances that have
transpired in that Distrl't to bring them to light
and put them in motion aa elements of political
strife.
'The Athens papers of last week have come to
haxri and furnish us with our usual budget of infor
mation In regard to the struggle. The “Irish In
anrrrecfion’ is waxing stronger and bolder and the
Unfortunate Cobbites, whose manipulations have
raised the d—l, are sadly puzzled for a plau to allay
the troublesome monster. The Banner canvasses
the pretensions of McMillan with as much freedom,
and in about the same spirit, as would be brought
into requisition t* unhorse a disciple of detestable
“Sum.” T’.e editor broadly hints that the Haber
sh in Colonel is no democrat, under the revised aud
now prevalent acceptation of the term, aud that if
nominated there are sundry doubts about his politi
cal complexion that would have to be cleared up,
before the Democracy could vote for him.
There is a’eo, in the same papers, a long and well
writteu article (in which we are greatly mistaken if
we do not recognize the pen of au ex-judge of the
Northern Circuit,) in which all the grounds alleged
in favor of the election of McMillan are taken up
and thoroughly dissected, while the writer makes it
appear that each one is au unanswerable argument
against his election. Among these reasons set forth
by the friends of the Irish leader, there are two
rather unique in their character, considering the
present political relations of parties to whom they
refer. It ift a feather in Mc’s cap, they say, that he
“scalped” Mr. Jenkius in the contest fortbe judge
ship. and belabored Mr. Toombs in a campaign for
Congress. The writer maintains that he served the
country in neither of these exp’oits, and that conse
quently they give him no claim to promotion. He
laughs at the idea of Mr. Toombs’ having anything
to “boast ot” in the defeat of such au antagonist!
Such is a specimen of the war, and we predict it
wffll not end this side of the polls.— Sav. Rep.

We not cn!y have humanitarian congresses and
■ displays of universal industry, but we make war
on the same principle, hud go to fight the Chinese
in the caara••rer of associated international philan
| thropiets. Yet, however much we English draw
t near to any continental nation in policy, whatever
of sympathy, or admiration, or onfidence we may
! bestow on the various races with whom our geogra
phical position links u.s we cannot help feeling that
j between us and them there is a great golf fixed. The
1 trails of Dover roll between two worlds. It is
j no exaggeration to say that in manner*, inhabits

La iees difference from J.isb- n to Vienna than there

| W hen the traveller comeg back he throws off

converse is equally true; if we take little from our
} neighbors, they seldom model themselves on our
i standard. lie|»reHentative Chambers controlled by
artillery and a public press tempered by the police
i are the terms in which our chief institutions are
found abroad, and beyond these jge meet with little
that is English **u our travels, except an occasional
parody of a steeplechase or a cattfo show.
But, in recompense for this, Britain ha* create ad
a world of its own. which is rapidly rising into an
equality with that European system which has its
centre of thought and influence at Paris. Lan
guage, law, and literature f. rm the chief bonds be
tween sections of mankidd, and these, in spite of
political differences, differences of climate, and dif
lerencea from the iutermixtuie of foreign blood,
| will always unite the people of the Anglo-Saxon
stock. The United States are the home of a race
which, in spite of many external and some internal
diversities, is one with our own. Climate may
change the physical type and make the children of
the broad shouldered emigrant into a lithe and
slender race of more nervous activity than muscu
lar power. The brightness ot the sky and the dry
ness of the air may encourage a more out-of-door
life and a freer social intercourse than prevail with
us. Finally, the large infusion of foreigners, and
the spirit of imitation which belong to a new peo
ple, may have introduced some of the continental
manners and habits. But still the substance of the
two nations is the same, and in the great woiks of
government, colonisation, or territorial extension,
the resemblance between the mother and daughter
is sufficiently striking How, then, should no. ad
vancing intelligence lead to a better feeling between
the two countries ? If England find in the devel
opment cf the United States, as well as of her own
colonies, the surest means of establishing a world
wide influence and a great historical position ,if
the Americans learn to recognize, in spite of the
calumnies of ignorance and malevolence, that En
gland has ben for centuries, and still is, the only
supporter in tie Old World of the principles which
make mankind happy and worthy of happineso ; if
they perceive that this country, after fighting bat
tles’ from which other communities would have
shrunk, after slaying dragons in the shape of every
kind or abuse and iniu«t;ce which have brooded
amid the darkness oAhe past, in spite of a narrow
territory, debt and pauperism, taken a new start in
the world, and made a progress of Jsfo years which
even the States can hardly surpass, surely there are
reasons why mutual respect and good will should
take tlue place of bitterness and distrust.
On these grounds we cannot help expressing our
satisfaction at the speech of Lord Napier, at the St.
George’s Society, New York, a* given in our im
pression on Saturday. On responding 10 the toast
of “Her Majesty’s Ministers and Representatives on
the American Continent,” Lord Napier expressed
himself in language which is considerably above
the average of diplomatic, and even of Parliamenta
ry eloquence. As the toast itself was of unusual
courtesy, our Minister did not confine himself to the
formalities of official banqueting, but told his hear
ers in warm terms of the pleasure which his Gov
ernment, his countrymen, and himself felt iii the be
lief that old causes of dissension and dislike were
passing away, and that the future promised well for
the unity and mutual regard of the two peoples.—
It is now more than forty years since the last war,
and the settlement of r rec*ent disputes, shows that
with common good feeling and forbearance there is
no reason we should ever have another. The
Maine boundary, the Oregon boundary, the Cana
dian disturbances, the fishery dispute, have all been
arranged without a resort to hostilities ; and Lord
Napier in ght well say that “we have in the expe
rience of the past the best grounds for believing
that there can never be a question so difficult or
Complicated that it may not meet with a prompt, a
peaceful, and honorable solution.” Nor did the
speaker less represent the feelings of his country
men when he declared that up class of Englishmen
looked with jealousy on the expansion of the Union
and the increase of its inhabitants. Some such
feeling may have had ail exist ence in the last gene
ration, when the memory of our feds was fresh, and
when it was the plan of even well-informed states
men to raise up in the Spanish race a barrier against
the predominance of our supposed rivals. Butin
English society at the present day we can trace no
remains ot this fee ing.
In the first place, we have learned that no Span
iards or other continental people are capable of
holding their own against the energy and enterprise
of a nation of Anglo-Saxon blood, and to suppose
that the Americans * can be arrested by a set of
Spaniards and half-castesps to suppose that the laws
of nature can be set aside at the bidding of the poli
tician. Hence, if even any jealousy etill existed,
common sense would teach us its uselessness and
absurdity. But, as Lord Napier justly observed,
the feeling of Englishmen is rather one of pride and
gratification, that in so signal a manner and by a
course of events which our lathers judged calami
tous, our language, laws, history aud institutions
should be made the heritage of a new world which
is gsowing up to such high destinies. We may trust
then, that with a more complete appreciation of
each other's part in the world, former animosities
will die away, and that, whilp we look with satisfac
tion on the legitimate extension of the Republic’s
power in the New World, the Americans will see
with equal good will the development aud increasing
grea'ness of the British Empire. There is certainly
room enough lor both wlnin each has a he uisphere.
Long may it be, then, before the friendship of the
two nations receives an interruption. If any were
to ask why it is that of late days there lias sprung
up in this country so favorable a leeling towards
the United Mates, we should be inclined to answer
that one of the chief reasons is the utter failure of
Liberal institutions and what we may call English
ideas on the continent of Europe. In despair or in
disgust we maj have turned from the contemplation
of those countries where om political usages have
been copied only to be made ludicrous or revolting.
T l 'e events of the lass 10 years have taught us how
little comparatively these nations have in common
with us, and have drawn closer the bonds which
unite us to a kindred people without whom we Bhould
be alone in the world.
Great United States Circus. —This is the
closing day of the great American company from
the United Skates, whose success in this town has
been unexampled within our memory. Owing to
illness, the celebrated American rider, Mr. Robin
son, was unable to appear until Monday last; but
the laurels which he has achieved during the pre
sent week, although purchased at the expense of
much personal exertion, for he is as yet hardly him
self, have throwu the efforts of all previous com
petitors in his own art into the shade. His riding is
marvellous, in its beauty and daring. To throw a
succession of soinmersaults on the back of a horse
running at full speed, without saddle or bridle, is a
novelty, we presume, in American equestrianism,
and has never been attempted before, as far as we
know, on this side of the Atlantic. The grace and
ease of Mr. Robinson are only surpassed soy his in
trepidity Messrs. Howes and Cushing carry with
them the respect ai d best wishes of the Liverpool
public. They intend, we hear, to extend their stay
over twelve months, and during this period they
will visit most of the leading towns andoities in

will meet wi.ti tne same amount ol encouragement
which has attended them in this- community. This

Important Decision. —fudge Pettit, of Indiana,
recently made a decision in an important case on a
bill of exchange, at Lafayette, which, if sustained
as law, will have a material effect on the exchange
business of banks and bankers. The case was
founded upon a bill of exchange drawn and accepted
by parties in Toledo, and discounted by bankers in
Lafayette, for the accommodation of the holder at
a considerable shave, the holder's endorsement
being required to the bill, as a condition of its be in#
taken. The bill was not paid at maturity; the
bankers came back on the endorser for payment,
who set up the plea of usury for defence. The
Judge charged that the fact that the plaintiff re
quired.the endorsement of the holder of the bill—
now the defendant in the suit—made the transaction
a loan of money to him, and not a sale of the bill,
and consequently usurious if more than six per
cent, was taken, and that they could not in any
event find lor the plaintiffs for a greater sum than
the amount paid by them upon the bill, when they
received it, and a'so that a verdict must be ren
dered against the plaintiffs for costs. The result of
the trial was a verdict for the platntiffs for the
amount advanced by them upon the bill and with
out any interest whatever, aud against them for
costs.

to doubt her lunacy, and allege that the “manager”
had her committed to the asylum in order to frighten
her out of certain conveyances of real estate, which
he had transferred to her whe?T in a more loving
mood. The case will probably give ri§e to litiga

Cases of hydrophobia continue fearfully frequent.
Y’esterday the death of a Mr. John Syser was re
corded. He was bitten by a dog a month or six
weeks since, and died within a week from the time
the paroxysms were first manifested. A coachman,
in the employ of ex-Alderman Alvord, also died last
evening from the same cause. The case-of Mr.
Beach, of the Fifth Avenue, mentioned as having
been lorn by his dog, is the occasion of the utmost
anxiety on the part of his friends. —Cotrespoyidence

Mail Robbery at Matoon, Illinois.— -The twa
largest mails passing over the Terre Haute and Air
ton and the Chicago Branch of thttflfeois Central
Railroad, werestdfen from the depotTn this place dur
ing the last week and robbed of their letters, being
carried about one quarter of a mile fronrthe depot
into.the tank house, there rifled, and then thrown
into the well of the Illinois Central Railroad "Com*
pany, where they were found by one of the hands
engaged at work there.
They are n< w in the hands of the Postmaster,
who is using every means to at ve what little matter
that was found left in the sacks, but owing to their
being in the well some eight or ten days, it requires
very careful handling, the matter being entirely
pasted and run together. ,
They evidently have oeen large letter mails, and
no doubt important ones, as they are the mails from
Chicago to Terre Haute and Indianapolis, contain
ing mail matter for Charleston, Paris, Marshall and
Vincennes; the other from Indiauapolis, Terre
Haute, Paris, Marshall and Charleston, to Chicago,
being mostly business letters, &.C.; of importance.'

TluT New Cent.
Monday hist toe 25th met , was set apart by the
officers of the Philadelphia Mint, for the issuing or
the u* w coin, and f*s the event forms an era iuu
our cimrency, we give below an-interesting &c
count'ot the" matter, taken from the Bulletin of that
date
Nine o’clock this morning was the hour fired for
—as Mr. Tittlebat Titmouse elegantly phrased i‘
“scattering the shiners’’—but wnen-thc- morning sun
first reached tiie’csps of the marble columns ot the
Mint, nine o'clock, be cast his benight
ed rays upon a numerous crew of person? who were
gathered under the portico waiting for the doors to
open. r that they might get their small silver and
th eir large ? rof per eschar gtd for the bright little
Granger* wfcl»’were*etranxiously looked for. E very
mair add bov*m the crowd bad his package of 6 in
with him.* Some had their rouleaux of Spanish c- in
donelip jxrbitsfof Newspaper or wrapped in hand
kerciaefe, wjjile others Lad carpet bag?,
and ol hey carrying contrivance-, filled with ct»p
pers-^-“very cheap and filling.” like boarding house
fare., - *
The officiating priests in the Temple of Mammon
had this*grand rush arid crush, and every
poss fok-' jtftjgferatk.L. whs m ole in anticipation of it.
Conspicuous among the*e arrangements was the
erecfcfcoifvi* a neat w«»odea building in the yard of
the Sent for the special accommodation of the great
crowla of ffeoney changers. This temporary *tru“
ture«jwa| furnished with two open windows, which
faced the south. Over one of these windows w«?
interbed the words “cents for cents, ’ and over the
other “cents for silver.” Inside the iitrie office
were scales and other apparatus for weighing and
testing coin, a goodly pile of bags containing the
newly struck compounds of Die ke! and copper, and
a detachment of weighers, clerks, A e.
The bags containing the “ Nicks ” were neat lit
tle canvass arrangements, each of which had five
hundred of the diminutive strangers, and each of
which bore upon its outside the pleasant kiscrip
tion “ $5.” Justus the Slate House bell had tiu
iahed striking ui&e o’clock, the d ers of the Mint
were thrown open and in rtished the eager crowd—
paper pefeels, well filled handkerchiefs, carpet
hags, kaiikets and all. But those who thought that
there was to be a grand scramble, aud that the
boldest pusher would be first served, reckoned
without their host. The invading throng was ar
ranged into lines which led to the respective win
dows - thoce who bore shyer had the post of honor
assigned them and went to the right, while those
who bore nothing but vulgar copper were con
strained to take to the left.
These lines sown grew* to an unconscionable
length, and to economize space, they were wound
around and around like the convolutions of a snake
of a'whincaic al turn of mind. The clerks and the
weighers everted themselves to the utmost to meet
the demands of all comers and to deal out the little
canvass bags to all who were entitled to receive
them: but the crowd grew apace, and we estimated
that at one time there could not.have been less than
one thousand persons in the zigzag lines, tveighed
down with small change, and waiting patiently for
their turn.
Those who were served rushed into the street
with their money bags, and mauy of them were im
mediately surrounded by an outside crowd who
wer f to buy put in small lots at an advance
on first cost. We saw quite a number of-persons
pn tne steps of the Mint dealing out the-new favor
ite8 J at an advance of from thirty to a hundred per
cent., and some of the outside purchasers even
huckstered Out the coin again in smaller lo’s at a
still heavier advance. The great majority of those
wao came out “made tracks” with their bags of
money, aud not au omnibus wen: eastward past
the Mint, for several fours, that did not, like the
California steamers, carry “specie in the hands of
the passengers.’
1 hose who made their way homeward afoot at
tracted the attention of p vssers-by by their display
ot specie bags, and we doubt much whether, in the
history of the Mint, there was ever so great a rush
inside the building, or so animated a scene outside
ol it. It was in effect at once the funeral of the old
coppers and of the ancient Spanish coins, and the
giving of a practical working existence to the new
cents.
In the course of a few weeksthe new coin will be
plentiful enough at par, the Spanish coins will go out
ot the hands ot the brokers just as they already
have disappeared from ordinary circulation, and as
regards the old cents there will be “nary red to be
seen, except such as will be found in the cabinets
ot com collectors.
The Roux or the Filibusters.— On the Ist
of April, a force of the National Guards, by Capt.
Lurei'Zoßodnguez attacked the filibustus in the
village of Caborca.
Besides Captain Rodriguez, the NationafGuard

broken aud eight of his men killed.
In the mean time intelligence was brought by
scouts that another party of filibusters were ad
vancing byway of Tubutama.
On the 2d, the invaders were besieged in two
houses, in front of the church, where they were sur
rounded by a force of from 250 to 300 men, but the
boDorians were without a commander.
On the 6th, about nightfall, they set tire to one of -
Two barrels of the powder belonging
to the filibusters exploded, by which rnuuy of them
were killed and wounded. At 11 they surrendered
at discretion, in number 50, and among them Crabb,
the chief. According to the reports they were to
have been shot on the oth.
I he party mentioned as having advanced by Tu
butama turned out to be only 25 strong.
Reports estimate the whole force of the filibusters
at 1 o(), 'from which 59 prisoners and 14 fugitives be
deducted, their loss-in killed will amount to nearly
iO. No other part yof the filibusters had been heard
ol; only a suspicious looking Vessel had been seen
near Lobos, and scouts had beens.ntto watch her
movements.
Accounts from Mazatlan, of the 21st ult., repre
sent that four ships had passed Cape St Lucas, with
direction towards the north, which were supposed to
belong to Crabb’s expedition, and to be waiting tlie
course of the events.

A Chemist Blown Up.—While Mr. Zencker, I
one of the chemical assistants in the New Stork n

filling a large India rub er bag with oxygen gas, t
an explosion ensued from its too rapid generation.
The bag had already received two charges of oxy- s
gen, prepared from the cholorate ot potash. I) .iring
the passage of the third charge the gas generated i
with such rapidity as to distend the hag to its utmost
capacity, aud then violently burst it. Tue concus- t
Sion was so forcible as to break every window glass 1
in the Laboratory, and nearly deaten the experi- 1
menter. The strong copper generator aud the Doc- 1
tor's spectacles, strange to say, were uninjured,
though the Doctor was urged at lightning speed t
through an unopened door into the Faculty-room. I

PRESENTMENTS.
In Burke Snperior jCourt, Mny Term,'
1857.—Present, His Honor, W illiam W. Holt, Judge.
We, the Grand Jurors, chosen and sworn for tho May
Term, 1857, Superior Court, Burke county, beg leave to
present the following:
Ist. W r e find the Records in the offices of the Ordinary,
Superior and Inferior Courts kept in a neat and faithful
manner, reflecting much credit to the present incumbent
of those offices.
Od. We find the ro«d leading from Waynesboro’ to tin
ninety mile station, C. R R , by Hollins' Bridge in bud
order, no* having been worked; the road leading from
W’aynesboro’ to the uincty-five mile statiou.in bad order;
the road leading from Waynesboro’ to Alexander, anil
from Waynesboro, to Walker s Bridge in bad condition ,
also, the road lead lug from Waynesboro to Louisville,
especially the hil! on the east side of Rocky Creek, and
v, e think the Commissioners on the several road* above
specified have not discharged their duties. Hollins’
Bridge ovijr Buckhead Creek, ar.d the bridge this side,
over Rocky Creek in bad condition ; Noah Smith’s bridge
over Rocky Cieck, on the j-oad leading from Wmker’s
Bridge to Louisville iu bf d order; the bridge over Briar
Creek, knowu as Pughesly’s Bridge in very bad condi
tion. The roads and bridges in general in bad condition,
requiring immediate attention.
31. We have examined the poor school list, and find
over 300 children entitled to its beneiits. We find the
present rate of taxation insufficient to educate this num
ber, and as there are outstanding claims yet unpaid, we
recommend a tax of 15 per cent, for Poor School pur
poses.
Th rgeeipts for 1856 we find to be $1204 Ob
•Vouchers 1194 20
The balance in the hands of the Treasurer is $45.i*5
cent*. We find an ace< unt rendered in but not paid,
which we recommend to be paid for S3O 39 cents, aid a
second for $lO 00. There are other accounts not render
ed., We further reeommend that future rates of tuition
be fived at bj cents per day or $5 00 per quarter.
4th We have examined the Insolvent list of tho Tax
Collector and find it $l9B 00. We recommend the amount
.be allowed; also, that the executions be sold as the law
directs.
sth. We are much pleased with the arrangements
adopted by the Justices of the Inferior Court in issuing
bonds upon which the funds have been raised to pav for
the building of our Court House, the amount of which
we find to be $12,500, payable by 18G2, and commend the
policy that has been adopted in levying a tax of one huu
dred per cent., feeling confident that the amount raised
therefrom will be sufficient to meet the ordinary eJUien
ditures of Ihe county, the claims of the poor, amf' allow
15 per cent. lor educational purposes, and if continued in
wi«l redeem the bond* m the time they fel due.
We commend the manner in which the Building Com
mittee has discharged its duties, and only suggest that
the seats in the Court room, on wh ch we set, b<j. cush
ioned, aud that our room be furnished with hat racks and
spittoons.
In taking leave of His Honor, Judge Wm. W. Holt,
we beg leave to tender him our thanks for his courteous
deportment, toward our body. Also return thanks to the
Attorney General for his urbanity and attention.

AUGUSTA MARKET.
Weekly Report Tuesday, P. M
COTTON.—The market was active for two days suc
ceeding our last report and full prices obtained. On re
ception of the Arabia’s account-, which wore less fa
vorable than hoped for, the market relapsed into a quiet
and inanimate state, and the Canadian’s accounts, more
recently to baud, have tended to confirm this depression.
There is some demand for the best class of Cotton, which
is very scarce, at 14c.; but running lots oi quali.
ties, which comprise the bulk of the stock, aro in no do

LIVERPOOL, May 15.— Cotton —The animation aud
confidence wliich characterized our market at the close
of last week were further stimulated on Monday by the
accounts brought by the Arabia, w hich proved to h»
fully confirmatory of those previously received, both as
regards the injury suffered by the young i lant from
frosts and there being but little probability of the last
crop reaching 3,000,(90 bales. The sales to the clos <>i
Monday, viz. for three days were consequently arge.
beiug estimated at 30,000 to 35,000 bales, one-thira ot
which was'taken for speculation aud export, and an ad
vance of id per lb. on Friday’s quotation heo
in American do. oriptious, and l-6d t ■ id iu Surat— lb;
zil aud Egyptian Commanded full rates but no d« finite
advance. Since Monday, however, the market lias bee
comparatively dull and tame, trade being oppressed in
Manchester by the high prevailing value of money, ami
in fact beiug such as to excite apprehension that short
time will soon be- f'oreed upon consumers. The sale.-
since Monday may be es.imatrd aj an average of O', (J<
bales per day, the business of the week amounting to
51,390 bales. 32,710 of which have beeu taken by the
' Trade, 6,930 lor speculation tad 5650 for export.
The subdued feeling still prevailed to day, but as
holders d * not lose confidence prices must yet be con
sidereil abo<>t i-LCdper ID higher in American andSuvnt
than on nday last. Tho business ot the day (iududi j
LoOOSurats, chiefly saw ginned) is estim&Ld at 7UOU
bales, 1000 of which have been taken for speculation and

that your Electric Oil is among the most wonderfhl reme
dies of modern times At tin* earnest request of ix lady
who alleged she had been relieved ut a most poinfu* af
fection by its use. 1 was induced to tty a bottle, th o.gh
at the time of purchasing, I fully belie ved ii to be a quack
medicine and a catch penny humbug. But .a trial con*
vinces me that it does posses ; a magic power, ami its use
will prove a blessing to suffering humanity.
1 recently took a cold from sleeping in damp sheets,
and Uiy neck became so much swollen and painful, that I
could not turn my head
After using, without success, everything prescribed by
my physician. 1 last evening ti u d your Electric Oil.
This morning 1 am well, the relief having been as com
plete as it w as instantaneous.
