TUESDAY MORNING Oct. 2, 186* Nobility in Trouble.—One day, when the flag-ship of an English Com modore was lying in the Bay of Naples, she was honored by a visit from the late king and royal family, with suite, who came out in gilded barges and the fnll parade of royalty. She was dressed from deck to truck in holiday attire ; side-boys were mustered at the ropes, the marines presented arms, the guns thundered forth a royal salute, and the Commodore welcomed his guests to the quarter deck with the politeness befit ting an officer of rank. One of the suite, a spindle-shanked and gaudily attired Neapolitan, strayed away from the party, and cruising about midships, espied a windsail, an object he had never seen before. As it was fully expanded by the air, he took it for a pillar, and, folding his arms, leaned against it, when it yielded to his weight, and he disap peared below, heels over head, with a velocity that was actually marvellous, ns was his escape from any injury. The mishap chanced to have only one wit ness. This was a veteran tar, who, ap proaching the quarter-deck, and touch ing his hat, said respectfully, “I beg pardon, Commodore, but one of them ’ere kings has fell down the hatchway. A Roman Street Discovered in England.—Near Basingstroke, in Eng land, the ancient Roman and British capital of Southern England, some ex cavations have recently been made which have laid bare a Roman street, with another smaller one running from it. Two large Roman houses, with tesselated pavements, the site of an amphitheatre, and a portion of the walls surrounding the ancient capital, have also been dug out. Several coius of periods anterior to the Christian era have been found, and a brick with parts of an inscription upon it. Eng land has, in many parts, relics of the Roman rule in that country, and the exposure of an entire city will, it is thought, soon be added to the other curiosities of the days of the Caesars. The walls of the city, a portion of which have been exposed, are said to have been three miles in circumference. Something of the Past.—Thirty two years ago, remarks an exchange, when Senator Douglas left his Green Mountain home for Illinois, his great rival, Lincoln, was keeping a post office, fresh from the glories of the Black Hawk War; Andrew Johnson was Mayor of a little town in Tennes see ; Jefferson Davis, a Lieutenant of Dragoons, was chasing the. Indians; Seward was grieving over his defeat as Governor ; Breckinridge was studying the orations of Cicero against Cataline, at a Kentucky College; Chase was en deavoring to gain a law practice in Cin cinnati ; Sumner was entering the Bos ton bar; Broderick was cutting stone; Grant was a School-boy in his teens; and Farragut watching the.honor of his flag on the torrid coast of Brazil. Austria in Troublk. —lt is an nounced that Austria is at present suf fering from the troubles that always beset a nation in times of defeat. The Emperor finds his Cabinet constantly quarreling, and the difficulties caused by the many jealousies of races that the Austrian Empire has always felt are now increased tenfold. Austrian finances, too, are in a ba 1 condition. The Gov arnment is endeavoring to negotiate Treasury notes and loans amounting to $245,000,000, but the various species are all at a discount, being quoted at from 46 to 69 cents on the dollar. In many quarters the people, impoverished by the war, are demanding Government aid, and $10,000,000 have just been ap propriated for the benefit of the Hunga rians, whilst the Vienna tradespeople ask for $1,000,000. Political Change in Illinois. —The Washington correspondent of the Balti more Sun says: “A dispatch just re ceived from Springfield, Illinois, states that at a municipal election held in that city on the 20th instant, the con servatives carried Congressman Cul lurn’s ward by 64 majority. Last Spring the Radicals carried this ward by 17 majority. Tho council elected re cc ntly is Democratic, which, the writer o the dispatch says, ‘is a just rebuke to the present council for its refusal to receive the President on his late tour.’ ” Up on Down? —Mr. Jones met Mr. Smith, as he was going on board a SCISSORS. —Simpson, the actor, would never take any medicine, and his medical man was often obliged to resort to some strate gem to impose a dose upon him. There is a play in which the hero is sentenced, in prison, to drink a cup of poison. Harry Simpson was playing this charac ter one night, and had given directions to have the cup filled with port wine ; but what was his horror, when he came to drink it, to find it contained a dose of senna. He could not throw it away, as he had to hold the goblet upside down,, to show his persecutors he had drained every drop of it, Simpson drank the medicine with the slowness of a poison ed martyr; but he never forgave his medical man, as was proved at his death, for he died without paying his bill. —Recently, when conversing with Mr. Henderson, of the Prince of Wales Theatre, Liverpool, and one or two other gentlemen, Mr. Matthews said, incidentally : “By the way, it is exactly sixty-two years since I first made my first appearance in Liverpool.” A look of surprise passed over the features of those present, and at length one of them said : “Dear met in what char acter was that?” “In the character of a baby,” was the reply; “I was born in the next street just sixty-two years ago.” —Miss Fawcett, the actress, was one evening dressing for a part, when a hoy attached to the theatre knocked at the dwor. “Please, miss, there’s a woman at the back door, who says she wants two orders to see the play.” “What is her name? Go and ask her. I promised no orders.” “I did ask her name; but she said it was no use telling it, because you didn’t know her.” “Not know herl and she expects orders 1 Has the wo mon her faculties about her?” “I think she have, ma’am, for I see her have a bundle tied up in a pocket hand kerchief under her arm.” —A few days since a lady ascended to the top of a big chimney iu Ludlow, Vermont, just built for the new factory, which is one hundred and two feet high, and there had her photograph taken. Just think of a lady with a waterfall one hundred and two feet high 1 —A paper in a neighboring city re ports that there is a grocer up town who is so meau that he was seen to catch a fly o!T his counter, hold him by the hind legs, and look in the cracks of his feet to see if he hadn’t been stealing some of his best sugar. —“ Ah Sam, you’ve been in trouble ?’> “ Yes, Jem, ves.” » “ Well, cheer up, man ; adversity tries us, and shows our better qualities.” “ Ah, but adversity didn’t try me; it was County Judge, and he showed up my worst qualities.” “He has ‘honest man’ written in his face,” said a friend to the late Douglas Jerold, speaking of a person in whom Jerold’s faith was not so great. “Humph,” replied Jerold, “then the pen must have been a very bad one. —“The wind is getting round,” re marked Bibbs to his friend Buggius, the other day, when it changed from East to West. “Glad of it,” replied Bnggins; “it has been sharp long enough.” —“Hallo, Mr. Page,” said an Express agent, “I should like to know if all the people on the Express line go bare foot?” Part of them do,“and the rest on ’em mind their own business.” Si lence ensued. —“ Husband,” said an exasperated wife, “ 1 can’t express my detestation of your conduct.” “ Well, dear, I’m very glad you can’t,” was the cool reply. —“When does mortification ensue ?’> asked an examining physician of a med ical student. “When you propose and are rejected.” —One act of beneficence to the needy, one act of real usefulness, is worth all tho abstract sentiment in the world. —There are three things that never can become rusty : the money of the be nevolent, the shoes of the butcher’s horse, and a woman's tongue. —An old man, when dangerously sick, was urged to take the advice of a phy sician, but he objected—saying—“l wish to die a natural death.” —A wag says, and truthfully too, that one half the lawyers live without a cause and die without effects. —A loving couple up country have had a pipe made with two handles, so that they can both smoke together. —There are three miseries of a man’s house: a smoky chimney, a dripping roof, and a scolding wife. —An apothecary in Salem has written over his door, “All kind* of dyiny stuff for sale here.” —“Mrs. Dobson, how’s your hus bamf? ingJ.maFfu, and 1 . *7?
