THE BROKEN HOUSEHOLD.
BY ALICE C VRKY.
Vainly, vainly memory seeks
Round our father’s knee,
Laughing eyes and rosy cheeks
Where they used to be ;
Os the circle once so wide,
Three are wanderers, three have died.
Golden haired and dewey eyed,
Prattlirg all the day,
Was the baby first that died;
Oh, ’twas hard to lay
Dimpled hand and cheek of snow
In the grave so dark and low.
Smiling back on all who smiled,
Ne’er by sorrow thralled,
Half a woman, half a child,
' Was the next one called ;
Then a grave more deep and wide
Made they by the baby’s side. .
When or where the other died
Only heaven can tell, ‘S
Treading manhood’s path of priie
Was he when ho fell;
Kaply tbiitles, blue and red,
Bloom about his lonely bed.
I am for the-living three
Only left to pjay;
Two are on the stormy sea;
Further still than they,
Wanders one, his young heart dim—
Oftenest, most I pray for him.
What-oe’er they do os dare,
Whereso’er they roam;
nave thrin, Father, in thy care,
Guide them safety home;
Home,oh, Father ! in the sky
Where, none wander and none die. -*
Fraud. In Gambling.
The Baltimore Sun gives the following abstract
of a recent lecture ami expose ol the immense
frauds in all systems of gambling, by Mr. Green,
a reformed member of that fraternity:
“ Mr. Green next remarked that the public gen
erally had no adequate conceptions of the degree of
skill which was attainable by persons who made
gambling their business, and that if he could only
succeed in fully acquainting the public mind upon
this subject, he- had that any individual,
well informed in the matter, would lie so simple
minded as ever to attempt an encounter with a
professed gambler. Tins great degree of skill on
the part of professed gamblers, was the result of
some amount of science, strong powers of memory,
acquired by cultivation, an astonishing slight of
.hand, obtained by constant practice,-all aided by
the marked cards in general use, by which they
wereread as easily as if played with the face up
wards.
To convince gentlemen of the nttcr folly of at
tempting to play cards with p.ofessed gamblers,
however amusing might ho their private games
with each other, he would show them how com
pletely lie could control the curds of the entire
pack. The game of whist was called for; the cards
shuttled by those around him, when he immedi
ately dealt himself and partner nil the important
cards in the pack. Ho then explained t:> them
that, knowing every card by the back, lie could
deal the second, third, or even the fourth card
from the top, as well as the first, and this he did
again with a rapidity that defined the elocest
scrutiny to detect it, *and with as much apparent
ease as if he was dealing from the top of the pack.
*• High, low jack and the giyno” wqs next called
for, and the cards thoroughly shuffled. ll<> imme
diately dolt .himself the ace, deuce and the ten of
clubs and turned the jack, and gave his opponent
the king, qneen and tfaw, beneath a seoro of watch
ful eyes around the tabic, none of which could de
tect the cheat or account for the result, until ex
plained by Mr. G. y
“ Kucre” was next called for, the cards shuffled;
&c. Mr. G reen dealt himself the ace, king, j:\ck
of clubs, jack of spades, and ten of hearts,
and turned the queen of clubs for trumps;
discarding tho ten, he insured himself all the
tricks. This lie accomplished by making several
changes in the relative position oftho cards, which
is done, and could only be done, l»y thorough-bred
gamblers. \
“ Bragg’’Was next introduced—the cards shuf
fled an t eiifef a partner selected, to wh<>:n Mr.
Green said he would give a largo-hau I. Ho dealt,
him “two bullets and dagger,” and the third
man the same hand in size—thus allowing that tho
gambler could, in his knowledge of cards, by
marks, deal just such cards as ho chose to deal.
“Blurt - ” was next called for,* and Mr. Green
showed that iic couid deal the cards from the top,
bottom or mi Idle oftlie pack, with so much dex
terity as defined detection.
The “ Faro bar.k ” was next called for. This.
Mr. G. said, might be considered the national
game, and was supposed by the public to be the’
most equal and fair game played with cards. But
his exposition of the many modes of cheating by
marked cards, false shuffling, bending the cards as
they were about to be placed in the box, stocking
them when gamblers “snow” the cards, (a pecu
liar shuffle,)—the “gaff” ns played on the finger
to push out two, (which cheat, he said, is played a
great deal by Baltimore gamblers, (“ strippers ” or
cut cards could be shuffled and put up to lose, all
was startling information to ail present, some of
whom candidly confessed that they had lost their
thousands at this game, but declared they would
never play again, and would advocate the passage
of a law to punish those who had been instrumen
tal in robbing them, and to prohibit to Continu
ance oi gambling houses.
A great variety of tricks with cards was next
presented, showing the extraordinary slight of
hand and powers of memory that could* be attained
by those who make gambling their study, and ex
hibiting the utter folly of the attempt to play cards
with.gamblers, who can rob their victims at their
will, to any extent. Mr. Green’s au iicnco left the
room much wiser than when they entered;
Kat-Catghi.no in London.—At the Guild hall,
James Gardiner and John Hawkins were placed
at the bar, before Sir C. Marshall, charged with
being found unlawfully in the cikv sewers. Police
constable 137 said ho saw tho prisoners coming up
through one of the sewer gratings in Throgmor
ton street; and, having questioned them, as 1A
their object in going into the sewers, he took tlicuL
into custody, when he found upon them eighteen
live rats and a key with which they opened tho
gratings, Sir C. Marshall inquired how the pris
oners got their living, when Gardiner, who under
took tho otliee of spokesman, said he was master
Tat-cateher, and that Jack was his assistant. lie
had been at that kmd of work, catching rats for
parties who supplied the sporting gentlemen at
the west end, for a good many years, but Jack had
only been nine months in tho profession ; they
were, nevertheless, very expert in their hunting
expeditions under ground, frequently succeeding
in capturing as many as from fifty to sixty in an
hour. When they got into the sewers they kept
on running and catching the rats as they ran up
tho walls, and put them into a bag all alive, and
after war. Is sold them at 2s. per dozen to the regu
lar dealers,. whovretaileJ them at Os. per dozen.
They never tho walls, and when they met
the commissioners' men in their ratting excur
sions, they were never interferred with by them.
On the present occasion, they entered the hewers
at tho Custom House, and made their way all
round Whitechapel and buck to Cornhill, when
the officer met them coming out. In fact, they
knew their way all through Loudon under ground.
Sir 0. Marshall 1, as the Commissioners! ofSew
ers or their men did not complain of or interfere
with the prisoners in their extraordinary occupa
tion, he should not do so, and therefore discharged
them.
Marshal Tvky.—Some writer, in one of the 1
American periodicals, undertook, several years
ago, to establish identity between this renowned
warrior and Captaifi liudolph, of Lee's Legisn, in
the revolutionary war. Wo illwavs regarded the
essay as made somewhat in the spirit which pro
duced Whateicy’s famous historic doubts relative
to the existence of Napoleon Bonaparte—as de
signed, namely, to show how easy it was to cast a
doubt upon the reality of any, tho best ascertain
ed, points ot history. In that light it was a very
ingenious and interesting performance. We never
supposed the author intended it to - be taken seri
ously, for there were too many people living at ■
the time, who know Marshal Ney, and had known
him fromjus childhood, in Strasbnrg, where he
was born. His father died not more Ilian ten or
twelve years ago, m Paris, we believe. Wo ob
serve that some persou has revived the story in
Borne of our exchanges, and treated ibseriously.
Captain Rudolph pemrun d the greater part of
his exploits, as recorded by Lee, in the year W
We presume h 6 was not less than, thirteen years
old, as he would hardly have risen to the rank of
captain, in suoh a distinguished corps, at a lesser I
age. Now, in 1781, Ney was but twelve years old
havin ' been born in the same yenr that gave birth !
to Napoleon and Wellington,'(l7o9.) Nothin* is i
better known than that Ney w:m » private in "the
commencement of the revolution, and that ho
fought his way up. It would hardly be supposed
that a man who had been a captain in Lee’s Le
gion in 1781, would have been found a private in
the French army iu 1790. Richmond Dispatch.

t J IN SENATE, Fob, 15.
The Chair laid befbro the Senate a report ot tho
Secretary of the Interior, on the subject oftho
Mexican boundary.
Mr. Badger said he saw in the newspapers that,
in the Criminal Court of this District, the U. S.
Attorney liatl asked the Court to fix a day for the
trial of the Gardiner case, and that the Court bad ,
expressed its willingness to fix tlio day, but ad
monished counsel that, should the trial bo com
menced and not concluded before tlio commence
ment of the next term of the Court in March, the
jury would have to be discharged and the pro
cecitings set aside.
To prevent tho occurence of such difficulties,
and the delay and failure of justice, the indiciary
committee had directed him to report a bill pro
viding thut in the trial of coses before tho courts
of tho District of Columbia, should one not be
completed before the commencement of a now
term of the court, tho said trial shall continue and
proceed to final judgment in the same manner as
if tho term in which it commenced had not ex
pired.
The bill was thou passed.
Mr. Phelps presented tho joint resolutions of
tho Legislature of Vermont, in favor of the bill
providing for the distribution of the public lands
among the States; in favor of arbitration ns a sub
stitute for war, and in opposition to the reciprocity
trade with Canada.
Mr, Mallory submitted a resolution calling for
copies of the applications made by Great Britain
since 1835, for fishing privileges on the Coast of
Florida. Adopted.
The Senate resumed the consideration of the
deficiency bill. The question penning was on the
amendment of Mr. Gwinu, appropriating threo
hundred thousand dollars to bo paid to California,
out of the civil fund colloctcd there previous to her
admission as a State. After further debuto the,
amendment was agreed to —yeas 21, nays 20.
Mr. Chase moved au amendment appropriating
thirty thousand dollars to enable tho President to
purchase Ilhfiim Power’s statuo of America. After
some debatokm a point 1 of order the amendment
was withdrawn, to be ottered to the general appro
priation bill.
Mr. Borland moved to add to the appropriation for
the extension of the e ipitol a proviso that hereaf
ter all moneys expended on this work shall bo dis
bursed by tlio commissioner of public buildings.
He said it was necessary, from what hud taken
place, thut there should he sorao safeguard placed
over tho disbursement of the public moneys. He
was a member Os the select committee on this sub
ject, before which there was a mass of testimony
showing that there had been a total disregard of
the public interest, and a fraudulent misuse oftho
public money to an extent unheard of before in
this country.
When the first appropriation fur this work was
before the Senate, ho called attention to what he
I considered was fraud in the matter, and yet ho had
j been denounced for it by the special organ
of tho administration. There was ample evidence
> befbrolhecommitt.ee ofl rge embezzlements. Tho
| evidence of the commissioner of public buildings
j had shown that tlio architect when informed oftho
| frauds of the superintendent refused to notice
! them. Large sums had bees embezzled during the
year.
I Subsequently he said that it was shown that the
j architect had made contracts for pieces of marble
J containing over thirty cubic feet at $ 1.93 per cu
| bio foot, and at 05 cents per cubic foot for pieces
containing less than thirty cubic feet. The result
was that largo pieces wero brought here at great
expense, and alter they got hero they were broken
up into small pieces to bo used. In this way sixty-
I five thousand dollars had bees lost.
Mr. Rrcokc protested against this divulging ex
par ) evidence before tho committee.
Mr. Cooper defended the character of Mr. Wal
ter, the architect.
. Tho amendment was agreed to.
Also an item for $20,000 for the Library of Con
i gross.
j Mr. Borland moved to amend the bill by
i striking out the appropriation of $400,000 for con
j tinning the work on the Capitol, which was rejcct
| ed—yeas 23, nays 24.
j Mr. Walker moved to strike out the provision to
i make tho salary of the superintending clerk oftlie
census, (Mr. Kennedy) 000 per annum.
Mr. Davis said in the debate, that this census
would cost more than all the previous censuses to
gether. That 25 good clerks could have accom
plished the work in loss time than the lfiO which
have been employed, will finish it. lle'consiUered
the whole history oftho census made it manifest
that the present superintending clerk was utterly
incompetent to the duty assigned him. He de
! nouncedthe ext ravagaut expenses incurred by tho
I census bureau.
Mr. Walker said that the 100 clerks had been
| mainly occupied in writing a history, which if
; Congress diet not publish would be published by
! the Superintending clerk of tlio census, on his
i private account.
j 'ihe bill \#as postponed till to-morrow.
! The Pacific Railroad bill was fixed for 10-nior
row.
The resolutions on tho subject of the Tehuante
pec grant were taken up.
Mr. H de addressed the Senate in opposition to
the resolutions, and Mr. Brooke commenced a re
i ply. The Semite then adjourned.
HOUSE.
The bill authorizing an issue of small silver coins
was again taken up.
Mr. Shelton, of New Jersey, concluded his re
• marks in favor of the bill, aud demanded the pre
vious questian.
A motion being pending to lay the bill upon the
table, the yeas and nays were taken, and the mo
tion was negatived—yeas 54, nays 109.
A motion to lay the hill on the table was again
| negatived—yeas 05, nays 111.
I Thq bill was then pussed as it came from the
j Senate, the amendments of the committee having
I been negatived; among which was one making
silver change to the amount of five dollars a legal
tender, only in payment of sums clue the govern -
ment.
A bill was passed which came from the Senate,
extending the present sitting of the Criminal Court
in the District of Columbia, on account of a trial
which is at present pending.
The bill to prevent frauds upon the treasury of
tlio United States, with one or two amendments,
was then passed.
Ti e Honst: went into Committee of the Whole
on the state of tho Union, and took up the post
office bill, which was ordered to bo reported upon
favorably.
Tho civil and diplomatic bill then came up, and
Mr. Venable, of North Carolina, spoke at much
length with reference to the neglect of public
business, which lie attributed to tho numerous
and conflicting rules of the House and the means
adopted by tlio majority to carry measures by
which they wore suspended.
After he had concluded, Mr. Cobb, of Ala., rose
to make a personal explanation, allusion having
been made to him by Mr. Venable; but that gen
tleman assuring him that ho meant nothing offen
sive, Mr. O. resumed his scat.
Mr. Stephens, of Ga., said it was not the rules of
the House which were to be blamed, but tho mem
bers who were sent there to legislate. The rules,
hs said, wero thoso which had been in existence
! since 1789.
Mr. Stuart, of Michigan, entered into a detail of
the modes by which business is protracted, when
some sharp firing took place between Mr. John
son, of Tenn., and himself. lie considered that
it" the rules were administered in their letter aud
spirit, the evils would not exist that had been
complained of; and was in favor of the abolish
ing the one hour rule, when a member, who un
derstood the subject under discussion, could c.m*
plain it fully, and a vote could bo taken.
While ho was speaking, several members rose
to make explanations relathe to proceedings in
which they had taken part.
Mr. Jones, of Tennessee, said he had frequently
seen time unnecessarily consumed, but never
more so than at present; and therefore should
move that tho committee rise, in order that tho
House might pass a resolution concluding debate.
Mr. Newton, of Ohio, However, had tho floor,
who made a speech on the homestead hill.
The committee then rose, and the House ad
journed.
Cuba.—Mr. buffer, of the New York Mirror in
a letter from Cuba, states some iutorcsting facts.
He gives the population of the island at about one
million, one half being slaves. There are also
about one hundred and twenty thousand free
blacks. lie says :—“ The number of slaves in tho
Aifonso family, including all their estates, is about
five thousand. They are well fed and humanely
treated. The lash, though always present, is
seldom used; and then the most cruel and vin
dictive whipper is the colored * mayoral,’ not the
white overseer. The Planters themselves have
little or nothing to do with their negroes. Some
of them allow their slaves to come to them per
sonally, with tbcirVants, wishes, and grievances;
and these humane gentlemen find that nothing is
lost in fulflllirgtho universal law of kindness. "As
far as 1 have seen, the proprietors are anxious to
promote tho comfort, health, and happiness, of
their slaves. No doubt there arc exceptions to the
general rule ; but they are much rarer than cer
tain persons would have us believe.
The great and increasing scarcity of slaves in
Cuba, renders it a matter of self intintt with tho
planters, to keep them, not only in good working,
but a healthy condition. To this end they must
be well fed and not over tasked, particularly the
lemalcs. A negro boy, four or five years old, is
valued at three hundred and fifty dollars, and is
decidedly worth raising. A few years since the
Cubans obtained permission from Government to
import Cnmcse laborers; and there are probabiv
*F ht thousand on the Island,
if tiff « r d th ® n J? s,ve » to work eight years,
at tlie ra.e of four dollars and a half a month At
the expiration of the time they are permitted to
return or remain in Cuba. The demand for labor
is increasing so radidly in the Island, that orders
for vertr large importations have sent to
China the present year. The Cabans would pre
fer to bring over laborers from Spain: but the
Government will not permit.”

Hc-unlon of the Democracy.
At a recent meeting of the two wings of the
Demoeraey, held in Koine, Floyd County, a series
of resolutions were passed os the basis oi a re
union and organization of tlio Democratic party of
this State. These resolutions contemplate and
proprose an organization upon the basis of the
Baltimore platform, adopted by the National Con
vention lust year, leaving the Constituent mem
bers, to occupy independent positions on the
question of Secession. Tlio proceedings have
been generally very favorably received by tlio
press of the party in the State, and the prospect
for a re union seems auspicious. The C issvillo
StanJai'<t nnd the Athens Banner, we believe form
the only exceptions. The former wo believe bus
us yet expressed no opinion, while the Banner,
in the following paragraph declines as yet to give
in its adhesion:
The Floyd County Meeting. —As a part of
the political history of the times, wo publish the
proceedings of a Democratic re union meeting
held at Rome, Floyd County, Ga., on tho Ist
inst.
This meeting was premature to say the least of
it. The Cabinet of Gen. l’ierco has not yet been
made known, and although we believe that it must
necessarily bo composed of men of National or
Union principles, in contradistinction to those of
a sectional character, we are not willing to commit
ourselves, in advance, to the support of whatever
Cabinet administration may be announced. Our
fulvioo is to “ watch and wait”—not t > move one
inch until wo shall see the materials of which the
now Cabinet shall be composed.

The AVf.st Point and Atlanta Ea!Lroad. —We
learn from the Montgomery, Ala., Journal that the
Railroad from Atlanta to Lagrange whs completed
and opened on Saturday, leaving but 17 miles—
the break between LaGrangc and West Point—to
bo completed. Tiiere is now but 17 miles of stag

The Ericsson off fob Norfolk.— The Cel ric
ship Ericsson sailed from New York, Tuesday.
Her commander has received orders to make a
short cruise, tho morethoroughly to test her en

it discretionary with him whether to proceed at
ouce to Norfolk or so to prolong his cruise as to
reach that port a week hence, Besides the per? ; a
immediately interested, Capt. Sands, U.S. Navy,
is on board. On her arrival she will bo inspected
by the Secretary ,of tho Navy. The Journal of
Commerce states that live of the Ericsson engines
are now building in that city, and that application*
for about four bundled lu.vo Leon received, but
as they cannot be built now, it is intended to have
stereotype plates made, from which any number
of copies can be takju.
A volume lias just been published in I/'-ndan
which attracts considerable attentioh. li is entitled
“Notes and Emendations to tho Text of-el. dt

long since Mr. J. Payne Collier, the editor pm
chased for thirty shillings a copy of the edition of
tho “second folio, 10 ;g.‘’ On examination he
found it to be full of MS. notes or emendations.—
These had all the appearance of having been made
by a prompter or some person intimately connect
ed with theatres. The greater portion of the emen
dations touch the text. They vary from tho correc
tion «f a comma to the insertion of whole lines.—
They are counted by thousands, and show that
this unknown annotator possessed great industry
and a striking degree of editorial talent. Excel
lent literary authority pronounces these emenda
tions and corrections to be the best yet made; they
confirm the happiest made by the commentators:
and elucidate, by very simple alterations, passages,
whoso obscurity had so far defied the most diligent
researches and profound learning to make them
plain.
New Line or Kaii.way. — It is reported that tho

Tho editor of the Express, who has examined
the plan, says it reads very well in print, and
even the theory is by no means objectionable, but
the practicabilities is tho great question that has

Natural Gas.— The Holmes County (Ohio)
Fanner ebttes that a wonderful natural curiosity
has been discovered in that county, in the shape
of natural gas. The discovery was made on the
farm of a Mr. Purdy, some eight or ten rods south
of the house, in a curious kind of earth, resem
bling dark sawdust. The owner for some years
has been aware of the existence of some wonder
ful phenomenon. The place on which tlio' discove
rv has been made l as been cultivated for a num
ber of years, and it lias been observed tipit in a
number of places, everything planted or sown, and
all kinds of vegetation would dwindle and die
and seemingly turn tip. After the late rains the
water was discovered to be agitated, and to bubble
ii)> in a number of places, which led Mr. Purdy
and others to experiment, by collecting a bottle of
! this gas and setting it on the : when life instant a
j lighted match was touched to it, tho vapor ignited
| ami sent tiio bottle whizing through thelunse.
The Nrw Coinage and Seigniorage Bill, which
! had previously passed tho Senate, has also passed
I the House of Representatives. All the amend*

! Baltimore Sup, arc tin-reform as follow*: To. re
• the silver ball'dollar from 20014 grains. to
i I'.'2 gnu its, ami alike reduction of the quarter do!-
; Uir, dime and half dime, the reduction being f*
; oi-lco. A charge of '• -j of 1 per cent, as' a scignior
-i age, 1 ji* coinage ."it silver deposited at the mint.
To the alteration off the woig' t of the silver coin.
. | there seemed to be no essential opposition—but to
I the seigniorage pert, a p ■ i deal of opposition
i was manifested, though it is claimed that th.c seig
-1 uiorage is barely sufficient to meet the expense.
The bill is u very important one, making in efleet
gold the standard of value, and silver sub.-ervh nt
’ to it. Tills is done without its really fixing a new
relative value between g id and silver, but by
! se> king, through a reduction in the actual value
iof onr silver coin, expressed »n its face, to reu-
I dvr it no longer a more desirable export than gold.
. Under the Operation of tin law, while the value of
the .present silver coin is not loticlio<l, it is pro
sumed it will si. n disappear to he re-prod need in
the new coinage.of less value.

A Rich State.—The St. Louis Evening News
announces the fact that Missouri has more money
than she knows wliat to do with. The editor says:
“Missouri has no State debt, no incomplete and
abandoned works of internal improvements, and
no harrassiug‘semi-annual’ instalments of inter
est to pay. Tho State Treasury is full and over
flowing, and Gov. King, in his late message an
nounces that the revenue of the State is larger than
the wants of the State Government require, and
he suggests a redaction of tiic taxes.
Mr. Hubard, the artist, having obtained permis
sion of the Virginia Legislature, is engaged in
taking a cast of Iludon’s celebrated statue of
Washington, new in the Capitol at Richmond.
This statue, it is stated, was modelled, after due
consultation with Franklin and Jcflbrson, in the
actual costume which the great man wore, and
from casts taken of Ids head by the artist himself,
then considered one of the greatest of living
sculptors. Washington, Jcflbrson and others re
garded it as an excellent likeness, better even than
Stuart's picture, and any other picture which has
been made.
N'AroLEoN 111. and THE Jkws.—We find in a late
number of the Archieves Israelites, published nt
Paris, the following interesting account of a cere
mony at Bordeaux:
“The circumstance accompanying the decoration
of the Grand Rabbi, Mona. Marx, of Bordeaux,
with the legion of honor, makes the occurrence a
matter of general importance. He had received an
invitation to breakfast, and after breakfast the
Prince President (now Emperor) banded the
Grand liubbi the < >rder of the Legion of Honor, in
th 3 presence of his cortege, tho muuici|al officers,
etc. In expressing his thanks for the f distinction
conferred upon him, the Grand. Rabbi added, ‘this
is again aconfirmation of the principles ofreligions
liberty, which your Highness has already promised .
us to maintain and defend.’ ‘ You may rely on
that,’ answered the Prince General d Uiuitpou!,
Grand Relerendar of tho Senate, who emphati
cally announced on this occasion, that the rights
and liberties of the Jews shall never be infringed,
in conformity with the pricipies of the age, aim
which are likewnso those of the Prince ; and more
over the Jews had shown thorn-elves worthy of
theso privileges. All the inhabitants of Bordeaux
sympathised with the Grand Rabbi, and even the
Cardinal Archbishop of Bordeaux paid dcongratu
latory visit to Mons. Marx.”

Impoktant . Railroad IMPKoVEiii'NT. —The Wash
ington Union notices, in the following terms, the
last railroad improvement:
“ From the daily working of a model engine and
railroad in tho rotunda of the Capitol, it seems to
bo very generally agreed that this invention isdes
tiijed to works wonderful change in railroads, it
is the plan of James S. French, of Virginia, by
which, using tho driving axle of tho engine for a
fulcrum, he gives to tho engine unlimited adhesion
ami graduates the required quantity to a pound.
The facility with which this is produced, or entire
ly thrown off, the engine then differing in no wav
lVom those on the common plan, is the great fea
ture of the invention ; and the means by which it
is done is auioiur the. most simple of all mechanical
contrivances. The effective power ofthe present
locomotive engine is limited bv its weight; on Mr.
French’s plan it is limited by its capacity to gene
rate steam, and is always ready to work up to that
opacity. Possessing a certain supply ot adhesion
at all times, and being almost impossible for the
machinery to get off tho truck, it not only renders
certain, and easy, the working of grades never be
! fore thought ot, but must lead to the introduction
of fur cheaper roads, and fur lighter machinery,
even to railroads not exceeding in cost the common
plank road.
This invention is conceded to be entirely ori
ginal and is remarkable for its simplicity. It meets
with great favor, and attracts great attention.—
The most practical and scientific men in both
houses of Congress have pronounced in its favor;
t lie practical men of the North were the first to
give it their unqualified approbation.
“Grace Greenwood,” in one of her late letters
to the National Era, speaking of St. Fetor's at
Home, says:
The works of Bernini and his disciples, marked
as theynearly all are by the wild, extravagance and
boisterous strength with which this master seemed
to boil over—bushy-hcaded saints, who look as
though they had just alighted from riding on a
whirlwind and directing a strom— angels in such a
state of disheveled discomposure, with their drup
■ ery in such a crazy flutter ol bid zy folds, and with
their very wing feathers so on end, you could al
most believe them just escaped from some celestial
insane asylum—these arc simply detestable. ‘
There are here a few inon ttmental works by Thor
waldsen and Canova, which go far to make you
forget these sculp e r ed abominations. Many figures,
originally fine, are utterly spbiled by an atrocious
addition of drapery, consisting of sheets of tin,
painted in vile imitation of marble. The modesty
of Holy Mother Church hasevidcntly had an alarm

Attioc tors Murder. —A murder of the most atro
i pious kind was committed in this comity on last
j Saturday, by Mr. Armstead Stokes, on "ho body.
of Mr. James Ilcnlv. We give the particulars as

Mr. Stokes invited Mr. llenly to his house to as
; sist him in the raising of a building. After the
| raising, he then invited him to dinner. Imrnedi
, ately after dinner, lie asked llenly to take a short
1 walk with him ; they had not proceeded very tar,
when Stokes drew a knife, and without a mo

; causing instant death. Mr. S. was under the in
j ilu nee of liquor. He was immediately arrested
| and brought before the Magistrates cl' the district,
j ami after a careful examination, was committed
! to jail to await his trial at our next Superior Court.
The deceased was a man of large family, and
j highly esteemed by all who know him. hi this
sad event eight children, six girls and two small
boy.--, have been bereft of their only source of sup
port. May He who feeds the young ravens, watch
over and provide for those afilicted orphans.—

Hermetically Sealed Provisions.— The busi
ness of putting up provisions in hermetically seal
ed cases, has become quite an important one in
our city. There are five large establishments en
gaged in it. Beef, mutton, lamb, lobsters, clams,
neats and sheep’s tongues, with green corn, green
peas, green beans in their season, <fec., «fcc., are put
up in immense quantities. But a smnll portion of
the articles are used in the city—much the greater
quantity being sent to New York and Boston,
where they are sold to vessels bound to Califor
nia, and on other long voyages, and likewise for
home consumption. When taken from the cans
they are generally in good order, and retain much
of their original flavor, although months and even
years may have elapsed since they were scaled up.

A Mi.ne.sota Night.— One is not filled with a
perfect sense of tho charms of our climate until lie
witnesses one of our moonlight nights. In winter
they are nearly as bright as tho day. The hills
round about our meridian thrown strong reflec

ing its every feature, rendered more charming in
the softness of the light. The trees of the forest
bespangled with frost, set off the scene like a fairy
land. The air is silent as death. The only sound
thut breaks the silence is that of an occasional
owl, perched in the woods of the bioux side.— St
