We hare but little to aay In regard to the Municipal election on Monday. Two causes conspired to defeat the Citizens’ ticket: First—A large number of thoeo who would have supported It, neglected to obtain certificates of reglatnr In consequence of their discouragement at the state nf things the past summer. Second—There was a re- llgtdus element Infused Into the canYsas which exerted a . controlling influence upon the result. It may becomo necessary to refer to the latter cause hereafter. For the present, It Is sufficient to say, we are In the bands of the Philistines. If those who elected the Democratic ticket, can stapd a continuation of the present system, so can we. It is melancholy, however, to reflect upon the do wn- ' ward tendency of things. Reforms, which could be easily and safely accomplished now,may be attended with vio lence and danger some years henc^ We hare the sat isfaction of knowing that the people Of 8avannah have not had so good a ticket presented them for many, many years, as the Citizens’ticket. The following ta the vote, which It will be 7V the Kilters eftks Betnnnnh Republican—OaMTLk- MBN »-I promised when we left Savannah to keep yon informed of the first day’s proceedings of the Oentennary Celebration at this place. On the morning of the 6th, the detachment of the Chatham Artillery commenced the celebration by firing a rooming gun at sunrise, and at 7 o'clock they fired a salute of one hundred guns, which made the old woods of Liberty ring again. At half past 11 o’clock a large procession was formed, and all marched to Midway Church, where John B. Mallard, Esq., delivered a most eloquent address, upon the settlement of the County. After the address was concluded, the procession was again formed, and marched out upon the green, In front or the Church. Here a cor ner-stone was laid for a Monument, lo be erected by the public-spirited citizens of the county, descendants of the first settlers of Liberty, whose names are to be engraved upon 1U The Artillery first fired a gun, Immediately after which the stone was placed In position. Thus the ceremonies of the day were ended, and all adjourned to Iho numerous tables, spread with an amplo abundance or all the good things of life. The speeches made were like every thing that comes from the natives of old Lib- erty-good models In their way. The song and the toast went round, and— “ All went merry as a marriage bell.” At seven o’clock this (Tuesday) morning, the Artillery again opened their brazen throats—ushering In the sec ond day of the festivities. Yours, BAYANN AH. Savannah republican, Wednesday morning, December 8, m2. 1 ' ’ y ~ ‘ ~ ^ ublican. Anecdote ot Mr. Webeter. Just before Mr. Webster died, and after Us recovery was despaired<* one of Us pbyrieUasapprtachrfAU bed-side, sad asked how he found himself. *1 Milks the Jackdaw In the Church Btcsjde," waa the alranga reply. Tbs physician withdrew sadly IVom the bcd-elde to another part of the room, where some members oflbs family were standing together, end, shaking bis bead,' confessed his apprehensions that tbs brain of tbs dying ~ * Uiatlhe stalely oak was perishing at the top. He could set no method In the answer which his question had received. One of the ladles present, who knew Mr. Webster belter, did not believe hU mind was wandering, and, quietly stepping to the bed-side, •sked him wbat be meant by saying he foil like the Jack* daw In the church steeple. “Why Cowper; don’t you re* member t” was the reply. Bhe did remember Cowper’s delightful translation of oue of Vincent Bourne’s little poems, entitled The Jackdaw. The following are the versos, from which the reader will perceive the perfect fitness and point or the reply:— The Jackdaw. There la a bird who, by his cost, - And by tho hoarsness of his hole, Might be supposed a crow; A great frequenterofthe church, Where bishop-ilke he find* a perch, And dormitory too. Above the steeple shines a plate,, That turns and turns, to Indicate From what point blows the weather. Look up,—your b rat ns begin to swim, Tta In the clouds—that pleases him, He chooses It the rather. Young America—Removals Rom Office. Some things transpired si the Democratic festival In Washington city, last week, that are worthy of notice. We quote from only two of their speakers, Mr Douglass, the little giant, and Mr, Weller, both or them Senators In Oougress. After congratulating his Democratic friends on the re suit of the election, Mr. Douglass proceeded to apeak upon our foreign policy. He would like, (aooordlng to a correspondent or the Baltimore Sm*,) to see a decree put forth that no European power was either to found a new colony or extend an old one on the North American ConUneuU There was no danger of war about IL Eng- _ gland had executed a mortgage on Canada, Nova Scotia, is an extremely small I Jamaica and her possessions in America, that she would keep the peace toward! tho United 8tatee. Speln was In about the same position, and all tho other European nations had enough to do at homo. The time had come when the title or an American citizen should be a pro' teetlon to him in the enjoyment of hts rights everywhere 5 one of which was, the right to carry on tawfol trade with any nation with which vie are at peace. With regard to Cuba, some thought that as long as she chose lo remain a subject of Spain, she ought to be permitted to, but whenever the people of Cuba showed themselves worthy of freedom by asserting and maintaining it, and should apply for annexation, she ought to bo annexed. The same persona thought that whenever Spain should be willing to sell Cuba to any other power on earth than the United Stales, we ought to take her anyhow. If that yens filibustering, they would find a good many/Wiias- ters in the democratic ranks. Mr. Weller said he would take one step In advance ofthe Monroe doctrine; that whenever a nation on this continent was struggling for republican liberty, and show* ed the ability to maintain It, bo would secure It to them, not only by moral but by physical aid. As to removals from office, If he were President, ho would cut off the beads or all at once. Ho would not have this constant squealing among office holders. George Law in Search of a Revolution.

Under the superintendence of Marshal Fleming, aided by the vigi lance of the committee, every thing went off well and ■ happily. The services In the Midway Church were commenced with prayer by the Rev. Dr. Wihn, after which the choir sang a hymn composed for the occasion. This was fol lowed by a piece performed by Ruckkst’s brass band, and then came the discourse of Mr. Mallard, which ( ; was Invaluable as a history of the county of Liberty.— . After this, the corner-stone of the monument wsa laid ■ after prayer by the Rev. 0. C. Jonzs, and then dinner was annpuncod. At the table, several beautiful and well considered speeches were made by gentlemen of Liberty r and others. Thus ended the proceedings of Monday.— ' Yesterday Judge Law was to deliver his address. Among those participating in the festivities of this happy occa- - slots, were twenty clergymen, many of whom bad come from a distance, and even from other 8tales, to make an . offering of their affections on the ancient soil where they drew their birth. The detachment of the Chatham Artillery, (14 men,) - commanded by Lieut. Stxoks, were received and enter- ' tallied with the greatest consideration and kindness. They left Midway yesterday morning, after firing a second salute of 100 guns, and arrived la town at a seasonable hour last evening. In going out, the Ogccchee Causeway . .presented rather a formidable obstacle to tho passage of their guns. It was quite covered with water, In on«s ■ unbroken aheet,whlch It took the detachment more than < an hour to get through—the water in many places com ing up to their saddle-girth* One of the guns stuck in the min Just beyond the bridge, and U was found necessary to send back extra borsee to disengage It.

Jn spite of all difficulties, however, the detachment were seasonably at their posts, and have returned with the assurance that they have contributed something by their • presence to the interest ofthe celebration. Loss or tbs Sntr Geoeoia.—By reference to our tel egraphic bead, ii will be seen that the ship Georgia, of I this port, CapL Brodie, has gone ashore anti will proba bly be a. total lose. ‘ The above Information Is confirmed - by a private despatch received yesterday from New York by C. F. Mills, Esq., which stated that the Georgia was lost, and the passengers and crew saved. The Georgia, at the time of this disaster, was bound from Liverpool to this port eta. Staten Island, where she was to 'stop and land passengers. She had on board a cargo of salt, and a quantity of pig Iron. 8be was owned • In this city by C. F. Mills, Esq., bis brother, CapL Jab.

Cantonment, belonging to the estate of James Frew, were sold at • Sheriff’s sale yesterday for the stun of $11,493^0. The • Iota were 00 by 105 feet each. • '• The barque Lady Suffolk, CapL Gray, which has been seized at Havana on suspicion orhaviug been fitted out , for the slave trade, was owned In Baltimore. ' Goon Dividends.—The Marino and Planters’ Banks ( have each declared dividends of six per cent for the list z. six months. The dividend was No. 51 of the former, ' and No.74 of the latter Institution. l Rev.

King, or N. York, and James G. King, brothers, were members of the last Congress. Moses H. Grinned, of N.'

We have observed it upon the arrival or every steamer from Havana for _^,cr*l month! past some Inflammatory story about Cu ban affairs was communicated to certain presses In this usly devoted to the Interests ot Law, and by them exaggerated with all Ibe eloquence of typograph ical rhetoric, for the sole purpose or creating nnd diffus ing an impression Hint the people of tho Untied States were habitually treated with disrespect by the Sptnlsh authorities Id that Island. Those who scrutinized these statements found there was nothing in them, that the Imputed wrongs were ei ther no wrongs In themselves, or the reports of their perpetration were false; but the object in making them was attained, for the multitude do not scrutinize newspa per storiee, and the Impresslou has been sown we have fio doubt quite extensively, that the Governor Generator Cuba has committed some inexpiable offence against the Untied Slates, for which there is no adequate reparation to bo made, except by extinguishing tho Spanish title to the soil oT that Island.” • • • • As soon as the contest shall have been felriy begun, (he Pott observes, that Law’s “ships will at once be wanted by the government, and by Uie terms of his contract they will have lo bo paid for with len per cent, advance upon their appraised value, which will doubtless be twenty- five per cent, above the real value; his 150,000 muskets bought or the goverumentfor $314,465, but never paid for, will find a market at an advance of at least half a million of dollars, and tha great benefactor or cub* will doubtless be permitted, under the new government, to enjoy such privileges for himself and his steamers In the ports or the Island, as may be deemed a suitable acknowl edgment of his patriotic services lu their cause.” The Baltimore American remarks upon the foregoing And thus, the revolution or Cuba may be turned to ao- count as a profitable Investment, which will exhibit a beautiful result in the annual balance sheet and dividends ofthe patriotic steamship company I ITIctliodist Protetant Conference.

We observe that certain young men of New York have formed a “ Young Men's Christian Association,” for the purpose of Improving the spiritual, mental, and social condition of each other. The object of this asso ciation is no leu than the prevention of the ruin, physi cal and spiritual, which overtakes so largo a portion of the multitude of young men constantly arriving In that capital, who are destitute of Christian aeajclates and connections. There was a time, says one or our New York exchanges, alluding to this Association, when the young stranger was welcomed Into the fsmlly of bis employer, hut that time has passed, and he Is now left during his own hours exposed to the seductive Influences of a gay and popu lous city, and If his mind Is not as unbending as Iron, he is allured, In common with the young and old, into the .various paths or vice. How many a youngman arriving lirour midst fresh from tha parting ambrara hf a mother and slater, and followed with the prayers of the pious fother, haa been thus left exposed to the the temptations of this populous city alone, with no kind voice to warn him of bis danger and whisper words of encouragement and consolation, and has thus been Insensibly and grad ually drawn Into every species of vicious haunt, to bis Irreparable ruin. It appear* to us, that such assoctatIonswould,in nearly all our cities, enter upon unoccupied ground. Of all the numerous affiliated' societies so rife In this country, we fear that there are very few which have such high objects as these In view. Young men have a certain hardihood and bravery, which induces them lo despise wholesome restraints^ as something unbecoming or humiliating. But this hardihood and this kind of bravery are uot natural impulses. They are false sentiments, borrowed from unworthy companions, and stimulated to an Indecent and absurd excess, by artificial standards of conduct, set up for Imitation by thoso already far advanced on the road to perdition. In these cases, as In many otbet s, the few lead the many. A band of young men requires but’ little leaven to corrupt the whole mass. Under tho artificial view which obtains, U la consid ered to be unmanly and chicken-hearted if one should chance to forswear evil company, nnd live according to the laws of God or the dictates of his own sense of rlghL Comparatively few young men are capable of aucb high determination when actiiq; by themselves alone. And It la thla circumstance that renders valuable the principle of association. It were much to be desired that the well disposed young persons of our Southern cities would sever the bonds which unite them to Arise opin ions, and take a bold, free, and onward step in the plain path of duly. It would rejoice ua exceedingly to know that there were young men Id thla city, capable of enter ing upon a course or life so fraught with happy oonae quencea to themselves and comfort to their friends. The path Is an easy and Inviting one to tread when once fair ly begun. Wartid.—Twenty Independent Yankee men, under thirty yeara of age, who dare wear tbelr coals In the street, with a patch the size of a cent and a half on the elbow. Wartid.—The aaroo number of native-born Ameri cana, in good standiug in society, who dare wear their bats, though eound as a well-conditioned life-preserver, If the nap Is a little short, and the rim half an Inch nar rower than the latest ftuhlon. Wanted.—Tho same number of gentlemen who are members or “the three learned professions,” or In tho mercantile line, that would prefer wearing an overcoat three winters in succession, to running In debt for a new »e. Wanted.—Twenty spruce dry-goods clerks within the City limits, who would be satisfied to dress no richer or more fashionably than their employers. Wanted.—Twenty gentlemen of strong and robust body, who could help their brother* carry a trunk four blocks on Broadway by dayllghL Wanted.—Twenty, ten, or even flvo gentlemen, re spectably connected, and enjoying an extensive circle of acquaintance, who dare saw a stick of wood before the door or tbelr City residence. If the above-named gentlemen will meet at any con venient gathering place, something may turn up for their mutual beneflL They may bo sure of honorable Intentions In this call. It is not to offer proposals from BARRUM,or any thing of that sort. Young mon of com mon sense, rally.—AT. Y. Times. brated Siamese Twins, who Mill reside at Mount Airy, Burry county, In that Mate, surrounded by their wlvee and children i Eng haa tlx and Chang five children, all of whom are S tacbotara and remarkably well behaved,maalftating a strongest possible desire to learn tbelr lessons and secure the good will or their teacher. They all partako strongly of tha moat refined Siamese cast of oountanance, form, and manner of deporting themselves. In truth, they are a credit to their parents and tha community In Chang atxMBng are alike remarkable for tbelr Indus try and bellgereut dispositions. They are strict and thorough-going business men, and woe to the unfortu nate Wight who dares to Insult them. Formerly they resided In Wilke* oounty, but In con sequence ofthe numerous actions for assault and battery brought agalntUheram the county, they romovedlnto the adjoining'county, shortly after which th*y wtre fined its and oosta, at Rockford, the county seat, for splitting a board Into splinter* over the bead of a man who had Insulted them. As regards the supposed sympathy existing between them, It may be stated that their most Intimate acquain tances deem them to bo entirely independent of every thing or the kind, and give as Instances to sustain their opinion, that not long slnco they attended an auction sale or hogs, and bid against each other UU they ran up the prices altogether above the market rates. Also, that on one occasion Eng or Chang was taken 111, and took to hla bod, where bo lay complaining for some time, although his brothor scolded him severely all the while for detaining hint in bed when he ought to havo been attending to the business of their plantation. On another oocaslon, as they were passing up the road, a gentleman Inquired of them where they were going— whereupon Eng replied, u ( am golug over the Blue Ridge In the stage;” at the same Instant Chang, looking over his shoulder, replied with an arch smile, “I nm go- bnckhomotolookaflerourwlvesandchildrcu.” When questioned about their mother some time since by an acquaintance, they stated that they had formerly received letters from her, but latterly they had heard no tidings of her, and even If they were to receive letters from her written in the 81amcM language, they would not be ablo to read them, as they had forgotten tholr mother tonne. They are excellent hands to carry .up a corner of a log house—exceeding all tholr neighbors In cutting saddles and notches In cornsr log*—both of them wielding the axo with a power and dexterity superior to any of the most expert wood-cutters in this wooden country,— When they chop or fight, they do so double trauaed; and In driving a horse or chastislug tbelr negroes, both of them use the huh without mercy. A gentleman who purchased a black man a short time ago from them, Informed Uie writer he was “the worst whipped negro be over saw.” They aro Inveterate smokers and chewera of tobacco—each chewing his own quid and smoking his own pipe; It has been remarked, however, In sup|>ort of the sympathy supposed to pre vail throughout their systems, that as a general rule, when one lakes a fresh quid, the other does the sume. It U also gmerally admitted that there Is a marked differ ence In the systems and temperaments of the gentlemen, but still they almost Invariably draw tho same Inference from topics lubnillted to their consideration, and arrive at similar conclusions. Eng not unfrequehtly gives seri ous offence to Chang, by Jesting him about his having one more child than ho has. When shooting, (a sport they are very fond of,) ono sights or takes aim, and Iho other, It is said, pulls the trigger; now if this be true. It would go far,lo prove the doclrino of supposed sympathy existing betveen the brothers, but It Is questtoued by most ortho solghbors. They readily admit and acknowledge themselves to entertain a strong Christian folth or belief, and aro regu lar nltcudands at church and other religious meetings, where they deport themselvea as becomes good citizens of tho lsnd 'of their adoption. They are strong politi cians, nnd take a lively Interest In all elections (hat occur in tholr district. Aa tho writer was Informed by a lady or Mount Airy, “they are mighty stay at home pcoplo,” rarely ever going from home, unless called away by business. Chang and Eng have published a card In reply to the above, In which they give a flat contradiction to tho chargo that they were compelled to leave Burry county, for the reasons alledged above, and deny, as Infamously Arise, that they bad inhumanly chastised a slave. They admit that one Is blessed with more ” little responsibili ties” than the other, but the Ikct was never n enusoof any unpleasant fooling between them; and to show that they have conducted themselves as orderly, honest, and peaceable citizens, they produce the certificates of a number ofthe residents of Surry county, to that effect.

The victim of circumstances nnd of a false social state, there was ever in him a manly and respect able element, and nono who knew him as he was aud as be might have been, will refuse a tear or pity for bis memory.” Durkino by the Acre.—An Irish gentleman, resi dent In Canada, was desirous of persuading hi* sons to work as backwoodsmen, instead vt frittering away their constitutions and money in luxuries aud pleasure; and as champagne cost In America something more than a dollar, whenever the old gentleman saw his sons raise the bright sparkling wine to their lips, he used humor, ously to exclaim to them, “ Ah I my boys, there goes an acre of land—trees and all.” The 8prlngfleM (51ass.)

Spectators lined the whole or the way. 8uch vast numbers have never before assembled In these times.

At a quarter past twelve, the Bishop of London and the Dean of St. Paul’s, leading tbo clergy and the choir, >roceeded slowly up the nave, from tho orgun to tbo on- ranee, to receive the remains ofthe great Duke. Clothed n while, with black bunds and sashes, tho proconslon. thus headed, moved in two streams of two and two through the dignified and richly attired assemblage, till they halted at the door, where they drew up In column four deep. A considerable delay took placo in removlug tho coffin from the funeral car, which tended aomuwhat to Impair the effect ofthe solemn ceremonial. For nearly an hour this untoward stoppsgo excited the anxiety of the spectators, who could not understand the cause of It; but at length there was a universal hush, and. aa ir moved by ope mind, the whole of the vast assem blage stood up In respectful grief, as the coffin which con tained tho remains of the great Duke appeared In sight, preceded by the choir with measured tread, as they chnunted too beginning orthe burlul service by Dr. Croft. When the cofflif was borne In the wind, It stirred tho feathers of the Marshal’s liat placed upon tbo lid, and produced an Indescribably sorroYful effect, in giving an air of light and playful life to that where itii wai deal And thus with tho hoarso roar or the multitude with out, as they saw tholr hut of Arthur, Duko of Welling ton, with the grand aud touching service or our Church sounding solemnly through the arehad dome and rUIm of the noble church, with the glistening eye and hushed breath or many z gallant as well as of many a gentle soul in that vaatmultitude-wlth toe bell tolling solemn- r the knell of the departed, taken up by the voTco or Uie distant caunon, anld toe quiet waving of the bannerol and Hag, surrounded by all the greatness of the land— with all tbo pom* nnd glories of heraldic achievement, escutcheon, and, device—his body was borno up SL Paul's. v The foreign Marshals and Generals stood at tho head of the coffin; at, the south side of It stood his Koval Highness Prince Albert, with his baton of Fleld-Slarslml n bis hand, and sttired In full uniform, standing a little In advance of a numerous staff of officers. At each side of the coffin were British Generals who had acted as pall bearers. After ihe psalin and anthem, the Dean read with great solemnity and impresstveuosa the lesson, 1 Cor. xv. 20, whim was followed by tho Jfuuc Dimiuu, Md a dirge, with toe following words set to muslo by Mr. ooss: “ And tho Kllg said to all the people that wore with him, ‘ Rend yot# clothes and gird you with sackcloth and mourn.’ And tho King Itimseif followed the bier.

The correspondence Is brief aud buslneas-llke. Mr. Everett, under date of November 16th, summarily recalls Uie past negotiations on ik» auhJect,. and. then goes on to state that the transmission by Mr. Clay, our Chargi at Lima, of certain documents and communtcv Uoua which throw much tight on the history of the islands, had incllued the President to think fovorably of tho UUes of Peru to the sovereignly of the Lobos. Mr. Osrna’a reply Is couchod in the most courteous and friendly terms. Wo quote: “Tho undersigned cannot but express to his excellen cy, Blr. Everett, tho satisfaction wllh which ho has learnt the resolution which has been made known to him, and which, in his opinion, proves Uie impartiality of hts government In tne examination of the question, whllo, attbe samo time, It Justifies the confidence with which that of Peru appealed to Its Intelligence, and its respect for the rights or a friendly nntion. In theso circumstances the undersigned would fear that he did not acknowledge, In a proper and befitting mannor, the scntlraenta con tained lu tho note of hiiwtr" ** “ -*•-**-- not. In hla celves the r ..... made to him, In fovor or the vessels dispatched by the citizens of the United States to tho Lobos Islands,under tho Impression that they could freely take guuno.” Mr. Osma thou goes on to "offer to Hon. Mr. Everett, In tbo name of hla government,” the terms on which Iho Peruvian government would, on Its own account, freight tho vessels of the United States that might have been dispatched to the Lobos Islands—and on which terms the afialr was happily adjusetd. Louis Napulron.—'The New-York Coarfsr d- En quirer thinks the world has boon greatly mistaken In the character of Louis Napoleon, and (hot the world is be ginning to find it out. In tho course of Its remarks, the CoNrfersays: "It so happened, that when in the winter of 1830 he landed In this city from Brasil, where lie hod been ex iled by Louis Phflllppe, wo were the first ncqualntanco he made In the country: and his first evening In the Uuited States was spent at our table, In company with General 8cott and other guests. This clrcumstaDce waa tho cause of our seeing much of him whllo lu this coun try; and we subsequently saw a groat deal of him In London. The result or our Intercourse wnsn conviction that he was a man of for greater talent than the world gave h m credit for, and that considering the peculiar chnracter of tho French pcopto, It was Impossible to predict his future. There was ono man in England, how ever, who foresaw and predicted tho future of Louis Na poleon; nnd that matt was the late Sir Robert Peel. Ho saw more of the exile than any of the statesmen of Eng land; and he declared him not only to bo a man of ex traordinary talent, but boldly predicted that If ho lived, ’lie would inevitably bo at the head of tho French nation.’” The Courier goes on to stale Its opinion that there Is great danger In tho future to England, of an Invasion by France, and to show that the creation of tho Empire Is with the.fUll sanction of Russia and Austria, although they pretend to deprecate IL A Novel and Interesting Case.—A ease which presents some novel points, Is now under consideration by tho authorities of New York. Tho circumstances are In brief, as follows:—The British ship Fitzjamcs, Capt. Hoyt, arrived at quarantine, on Wednesday night, having on board among other passengers ono wounded man, a Jew named Dreslncr, a native of Poland, and .fliwM Mamet AuguBitne Durr, it appeared that those men, when tho ship was about thirty miles from Sandy Hook, had a discussion on religion, nnd thnt In the excitement nurr stabbed the other with a dirk knife. Tho wounded man was sent to the Hospital on Staten Island, and tho other given Into tho custody or offleor Keefe, one ofthe chiefs aids, who now holds him in tho Third Word Station Houso. The U, States authorities say they have Hojurlsdlctlon in Iho cose, as Ihe murder, If It shall prove to be, wua committed under tbe British flag. There aro two other passengers In cus tody as witnesses, Patrick O’Sullivan and Hugh Savage. This case, It Is thought, will Involve some new questions of International Jaw. In tho meanUrao the British Con sul has been notified ortho Imprisonment of those three persons, and we supp<Me that ho will take measures to have the prisoners sent back to England. Tho Presbyterian says that that venerable and useful servant of God, tbo Rev. Jour &IcIntyre, rested from tils labors on tho 17lh ulL, at the residence of hla son-in- law, Blr. Alexandre Purcell, In Robinson, North Carotins, In tbe ono hundred and third year or bid age. It is comparatively seldom that wo hear or a Bllnlster of the Gospel reaching his three-score and ton; but here was venerable man or God who had been spared to wear the harness for more than a century. JAFAR.-Thero are two Emperors of Japan; the tem poral Emperor has the seat of his authority at Jeddo; the Ecclesiastical Emperor reigns at Bfacao, at descendant of the Sun Goddess, the tutelar deity of Japan. No Ja panese born dare go out of the country, nor any ship or boat or Japan sail from tbelr shores. All Japanese who return home from abroad are liable to suffer death. ■A Female Operator.—Bliss Susan R. Sutherland, of Newark, Wayne county, Now-York, a handaomo young lady, is tho regular operator or the Moan tele graph lino at that placo. Sho was taught by her brothor Ihe mysterious dots and dashes, who is also an operator. There are, wo understand, several female operators In the country. Ono at Washington, on the Western lino, Is stated to be a very accomplished lady. TusDpRR Troubles in Rhode Island.—Col. Dls- pean, ono of the officers under Gov. Dorr si the time of the troubles In Rhode Island, and who was arrested un der marital law by Col. Olney, brought suit against the latter for trespass soonaftor. A few days ago Uie trial took place, and a verdict was rendered In fovor of the defendent, Involving tho plaintiff In costa to the atnounL of $1,500 or $2,000. Places to Imoide in Cotiiam.—There are 8,000 ho tels, drluking saloons nnd dram shops in New-York, aud the amount oxpended In thorn Is amazing, almost ex- ceding belief, iftbe dally salea average $10each,which Is a very low estimate, Uie amount will be $80,000 a day, $9,400,000 a month, and $20,000,000 a year.
