A True Bill. Here is a * palpable hit’ from tbd N. Y. Sunday Mercury, at the manner in which lime id often wasted in our Courts V _ A witness was under examination, and it became very important to know what another had said to him upon the subject matter in dispute. The ques tion was there propounded, • what did Mary say to you ?* Thereupon the op posite counsel rose Very much excited, and stated his objections in a speech an hour long, t ■> which the olher replied in one of almost the same length. Then the Judges consulted together, and in a very learned and pompous manner, one of them slated tlfcUreason for consider- ingil a very -proper question, which must be answered. The greatest ex citement was manifested by the audi ence, anti a solemn silence was observ ed as the counsel repealed the question. • What did.Mary say?' To which the witness quietly replied— • She didn't say a toordP Good for Aunt Mart.—Aunt Mary, whilst going along the street the other day, saw at p tailor’s door, a sign bear ing ihc inscription, “ Fountain of Fash ion.” “ Ah !” exclaimed she, “ that is the place where squirts come from,” at the same timecasting a malignant squint at a couple of young men with incipient Tseng Females. BT MRS. Im H. SIGOURNEY. The increasing privileges which an illumination has conferred upon our sex, exceedingly heighten their responsibili ties. Formerly, to be “ faithful over a yho.lhings” was all that their limited sphere required: now they are both qualified and expected lobe made “ ru lers over many things.” The treasures of their own minds are revealed to them, and they are summoned forth as labor ers in the wide field of benevolence.— The temple of science is no longer in accessible to the foot of tyom^p. ^rora its pavilion, whence waJcMislem- j©aJ- ousy she was for ages excluded,‘a voice addresses her, “Enter in and live”— Of treasures which had been from an cient times accumulating, yet strictly sealed from her eye, she is invited to partake. It remains to be proved in what manner this invitation will be re ceived—-this admission vulued. Will she loiter at the threshold of this mag nificent temple? Will she amuse her self in its courts by gathering its deep flowers that spring up where there is deepness of earth ? Will she just t.. ter the gate, and proclaim with the shrill ness of vanity, her own initiation ? her own proficiency in the mysteries of knowledge? Or will she press to the innermost shrine, among those true hearted and meek-soulded worshippers, whose candle goelh not out by night.” Youngfemalcs, these interrogations are emphatically for you. With you it is the time of culture, the day of hope.— Suffer not the allutcments, the tempta tions of indolence, to prevent your di lation on the altar of wisdom. Come while the dews of the morn.ng are fresh, about you. The meridian sun may ab sorb your vigor, or find you toiling in different and/nore sterile fields. May you not be’ constrained to adopt the lamentation, “ my own vineyard have I not kept.” A time will come, should your days be prolonged, when life may seem like a twice told tale, when the present and the future disrobed of nov elty, the mind will turn ’for enjoyment to the past. Lay then, a. deep founda tion, and collect a store of imperishable fruits for this season of retrospection. Convinced that “knowledge ispower,” seek It ndJen if may be <bbtjriw6n,TMid so use it that all within the sphere of your influence, may be prompted by your example to the attainment of moral ex cellence, to the pursuit of “ glory, im mortality and eternal life.” Damascus. That clover correspondent of the New York Courier If Enquirer, “Sig ma,” thus speaks of this orieniial city :— “ Damascus has a population of about 25,000,o(’which about 12,000 are Syrian Christians, 3,000 Jews, aud the remain der Mohoinetans. The city lost last year quite a fraction of its population by the cholera: no less than 21.000 were 8wept off in twenty-five days.

But you are rich, and you may give your self a much greater pleasure by means of this poor man. Put a dollar in each shoe and then we will hide ourselves.” The student did so, and then placed himself with the professor behind the bushes hard by, through which they could easily watch the laborer, and see Whatever wonder orjoy he might express. The poor man soon finished his work, and came across the field to the path, where he had left his coat and shoes.—- While he put on the coat, he slipped one foot into one of his shoes; but feeling something hard, he stooped down and found the dollar. Astonishment and wonder were seen upon his connte- nance ; he gazed upon the dollar, turn ed it around and looked again and again; then he looked around on all sides, but could see no one. Now he put the money in his pocket and proceeded to put on the other shoe; but how great was bis astonishment when he found the olher dollar! His feelings over came him ; he fell upon his knees, look ed up to heaven, and uttered aloud a fervent thanksgiving, in which he spoke of his wife, sick and helpless, and his children without bread, whom this timely bounty from some unknown hand would save from perishing. The young man stood there deeply affected, and tears filled his eyes. “Now,” said the professor, “are you not much better pleased than if you had played your intended trick ?” “ O, dearest sir, answered the youth “ you have taught me a lesson now that I will never forget.

The sentences ot Count Batthyany, Count Stephen Caroly, and the guerrilla chief Fekete were ready’, when a new order arrived to oinit the first sentence, as Batthyany’s execution had been put off.
