Hot Quite so Bad ns We Seem.
Wo devoutly believe that mea aw growing more
humane, charitable and tender ii their relations with
each other, Bcarcely a day pastes that we do not see
or hear of some act of klaanoas, self-devotion or char*
ity which adorns the character of the Individual,
White It elowatee that of humanity. Nor do we al
ways look for these beautiful manifestations in benev
olent institutions, subscription lists, generous lega
cies, or rich endowments. The charity which " suf-
fereth long and Is kind," "which vaunteth not itself,"
" which thlnketh no evil," is as frequently found
among the humble and depressing scenes of poverty
—in the "short and simple annals of the poor."
Oharioe Dickins is right in choosing his heroes and
heroines among the poor victims who swarm in the
crowded work-house, in the noisome prison, in the
pestilent atmosphere of St. Giles. From tho lowest
haunts of human misery there wells up unceasingly
a living fountain of goodness to make glad the hearts
of men. Poor little ragged Jo of Tom-all-AIono’s flee
ing timidity from the rigors of society and of the po
lice, yet with a heart full of love and humaneness—
we have only to open our eyes to sec such swarming
on every corner or the streets. Parochial-fed Oliver
Twists, withstanding temptation to the last; gentle
loving souls like miserable Smike; starved “ Marchi
onesses " overrunning with womanly pity and ten
derness—these are no Actions, but pictures—realities
of every day life.
We have no sympathy with the crusty and ill-tem
pered aphorism which announces universal depravi
ty. Hardly a poor emigrant wanders on our snores
but could tell a tale of self-denial, of patience under
long suffering, of good feeling, showing itself in acts
rather than words—which would give the lie to such
ao inhuman doctrine. Let us look at our own circle
of poor acquaintances, and see daily examples which
we might be proud to Imitate. Don’t wo see fathers
toiling manfally, in season and out of season, that
their Tittle ones may have the necsslties of life—mo
thers robbing themselves to gratify the depraved ap
petite .of their drunken or debauched sons; dirty,
bare-footed boys supporting their little sisters, and
leading them gently by the hand through the crowded
street f There ore romances—if wo did but know
them—going on ail around ua, more replete with ten
derness and humanity than any that Dickens ever
wrote. And yet we have been so long taught to be
lieve in unleavened wickedness, that when wo Bee
such things we doubt our own sonscs, and ask—Is
this life, or are we in Utopia?
Even the arid and barren walks of business aro
daily refreshed with little acta of courtesy, and kind
ness,and self-sacrifice, falling refreshingly, like the
gentle rain from heaven, and twice blessing, bless
ing him who gives and him who takes. The hard
heartedness or Wall street is proverbial ; but human
nature is the name everywhere, and always has re
deeming features. " The cares of this life and the
deceitfulness of riches " may cboko the divine seed
for a time, but they cannot kill it. There are always
some Gheerrible Brothers holding out helping hands
to distressed clerks, to strangling young men just
entering upon life. Don't we constatly rely upon the
good offices of others ? Is there a day in the year
that we don’t ask and receive some favor? It was
only yesterday that we heard a tale ofbeneficenco on
the part of a crusty old business man in South street,
that would moisten the eye aud gladden the heart of
a Jew.
The humanizing tendencies of an advancing civili
sation are felt everywhere. Tho good time is com
ing I Mon are growing better because they can’t
heTp it, if they would. Tho humanitary influences of
the day act directly and potently upon every man’s
heart. Even tho law ianeoomfna humane, ond wo
hear no more of the barbarous punishments which
disgraced the enlightened reign of Queen Elizabeth.
The Pilory and the whipping-post, foul dungeons, in
famous tortures of the body before death, and mutila
tions afterwards, live only in books. The poor sui
cide is no longer buried on a cross-road with a stake
through his heart. Even the murderer is allowed all
the favors which humanity can afford, and is accom
panied to the scaffold with tho sympathies of the
whole community. Drunkenness Is beginning to bo
regarded as a disease ; and the idiot and tho blind,
the deaf and tbe insane, are lodged in palaces erected
by the State. Hospitals, churches, free schools, and
benevolent institutions of all sorts, are living rnonu-
meats that all men aro brothors, and that the great
Uw of horaanlty Is Love.
We wish men had more confidence in themselves,
greater faith in their own goodness. Wo gain noth
ing by constantly telling each other of our deplorable
■ and unmitigated wickedness. Theologians apeak iu
vatu to that old tuno of depravity—for we don’t be
lieve them, nor never will. If we thought ourselves
so ignoble we would not chooso to live. It was only
the vain pride of the Pharisee who thanked God he
was better than other men that was condemned by our
Savior. But the charity which "honeth all things,
believeth all things," which cherishes a profound
faith that the discords of life can never drown the di
vine sources of Harmony which God baa placed in
the breast of each one or us, is, after all, the best Re
ligion and tbe beat Philosophy.

Several Interesting letters to tho Secretary, from
Methodist Indian Missionaries, are published. It
seems that in North Carolina there Is a community of
710 Cherokees, who own 17,000 acres. This does not
embrace half of their land, tho other portion bcin,
left out by reason of the deeds not being recordci
They have 1,440 acres improved, which, at tho State
price,Ib worth $8,640. They own 83 horses, 105 milch
cows, 45 working oxen, 135 other cattlo, 416 Bheep,
616 swine. Their farming utensils are valued at
$573. They produce annually 16,366 bushels of corn,
319 bnshels of beans, 343 bushels of Irish potatoes,
1,000 bushels of sweet potatoes. This settlement of
Indians also has $27360 of monoy at Interest They
havetbelrown blacksmiths,gunsmiths, wheelwrights,
and their females have learned to manufacture their
clothing. Tholr grist mill was made by one of them-
selves. Their lands aro situated at tho baso of the
great Iron or Sraooky Mountain, are productive, and
the atmosphere is is one of tho healthiest on tho
globe. Eminent gentlemen of North Carolina say
too Indians are fast improving in tho knowledge of
tbe mechanic art* and agriculture ; and in sobriety

Spioidb op tiir Bishop op Worcester’s Chap
lain.—'Tho Rev. II. J. Stevenson,M. A.. Vicar of Hal
low, and oxamining chaplain to the Bishop Worces
ter, committed sulcido, on Friday morning, under
deeply distressing circumstances. It appears that
the reverend gentleman had beon for some timo past
suffering under severe mental depression, and was In
the habit of getting out or bed shortly after midnight
to take some stimulating draught. This he did on
Friday morning, and in a moment afterwards seized
a razor and drew it across his throat. He expired
before his wife (who witnessed the act) could reach
him. The reverend gentleman held tbe vicarage of
Hallow, with $1200 a year, and was also a prebenda
ry of Worcester Cathedral. It is a remarkable cir
cumstance that no fewer than four clergymen havo
committed suicide during the last week or ten days,
namely, the Rev. H. J. Stevenson, the Hon. and Rev.
A. P. Perceval (formerly one of her Majesty’s chap
lains), the Rev. Humphrey Jackson, B. D., Fellow ol
St. John's College, Cambridge, and rector of Holt,
and the Rev. John Mayor, B.D., of Lincoln’s College,
Oxford.—English paper.
A Missionary Deified.—In 1832, Mr. and Mrs.
Todd were sent out os missionaries of the American
Board to the Tamil people. Mrs. Todd died in 1835,
at Doviapatam. Rev. Mr. Taylor, of the Madison
Mission, being at that placo in February last, visited
her grave to see if the mouuraent was in repair. On
reaching the spot, what was his concern, to find that
lamps aro burned, sacrifices made and prayers offered
to this servant of Christ, and that miracles were
commonly reported to havo been wrought there l Ho
thought ho would put a fence round the grove ; but
then ho considered that this would confirm tho no
tion of its sanctity. lie next thought of having the
remains removed to tho mission cemetery at Madu
ra ; but this would not enlighten tho minds of tho
people. "My conclusion," ho says, “was to lot it
remain, and report tho facts to tho people of God in
America.” __
There aro in tho United States, 36,000 houses of
public worship, capable of accommodating 13,849,896
persons (only one-balf the actual population,) and
valued at $86,316,639. Tiie Methodists have tho
largest number of churches of any other denomina
tion, the whole amounting to.1200; the Baptists havo
nearly 900, and so down to the Swedonborgians, who
havo only 16.—Ch. Cour.
Tho attention of men of scionce, in Paris, has beon
drown to an extraordinary discovery made in a neigh
boring department. A grave digger, in throwing up
Borne earth, came upon a body in a state of perfect
preservation. On examination it proved to do that
of an individual buried thirty-seven years ago. Ho
had died from tho effects of the bite of a mad dog.—
The shroud and the coffin had fallen to dust, but the
body remained intact This la the third exhumation
made within twenty years, of bodies of the victims
of hydrophobia, under similar circumstances; and it
would really seem that they are beyond the reach of
decomposition. The registry of deaths was consult
ed, aud no mention or the embaimentofthe body was
found.—Ch. Cour.
Tryino Situation for a Mother.—A few days
since, n daughter of Mr. Isaiah bawtelle, or Belgrade,
Me., about two years old, fell into a well, eighteen
feet deep. The mother was informed ol tho accident,
but when she arrived, tho little one had sunk in four
feet of water. She ran to a neighbor’s, twenty rods
or more, for assistance, but found none. Returning,
she lowered tho well-polo to tbe bottom, aud brought
the child to the surface, the little thing clinging to
the pole with its hands. Tho mother raised it a few
feet, when its hold relaxed, and it ngain sank. Again
she lowered the pole, which coming in contact with
tho little hands, it was taken with a death grasp,and
tho child thus drawn up twenty feet, to its mother's
arras. Notwithstanding it was apparently dead at
the time, by proper exertions it was restored to life.
A Busy Pay Day.—A profligate young fellow, a
son of a lawyer of Borne eminence in Rhode Island,
on a certain muster inspection-day, purchased a horse
or an ignorant farmer, and engaged to pay for it on
tho next inspection-day. He gave a note j but instead
of inspection, he inserted tho word resurrection, ma
king it payablo on tho reBurrcction-dny.
When the inspection-day had come, and the farmer,
unsuspicious of the trick, supposed tho note to be
duo, ho called upon the young man for payment. The
latter expressed great astonishment that lie should
call on him before the note was out.
“ But it Is out," said tho farmer, " you promised to
pay me tho next inspection-day; the timo has come,
and I want my money."
"If you look at the note again,” said tho „ 0
man, cooiy," you will find it has a very long while to
rnn yet."
The farmer was sure tho note was duo or ought to
be; but, on spoiling it over carefully, be fouud, to
bis astonishment, that itwasnot duo till tho resurrec
tion-day. Ho remonstrated with tho young scape
grace ; but all to no purpose, and he finally laid tho
case before bis father, the lawyer. Tbe latter took
his son aside and told him he had better settle the
thing at once.
" For,” said I10," though tho day is far distant, you
aro in a fair way to have business enough on your
hands that day without having your notes to settle.”
Tho advice was taken.
Tragic Scene.—At St. Louis, a few days ago, Mr.
Conrad Sleeter, (a German,) a stonecutter, returned
homo from hi* daily work, and, after a few words
with his wife, called his children, nine in number,
round him, and, taking a pistol, placed the muzzle in
his mouth, and tho next moment fell to tho floor a
mangled corps.
Terrible Stroke of Liohtninq.—We regret to
learn that a brother of Warren Cooley, of this city,
was instantlv killed by lightning, on Tuesday morn
ing last, at Peoria, Wyoming county. The deceased
Francis Cooley, was standing iu his Btore, filling a
camphene can, when tho lightning entered at the
back of the building, struck him near the head, and
passed out through hia heel, entirely stripping him of
his clothes, and causing instant death. Mrs. Cooley
and her sister were sitting at the timo, about a table,
in a room over the store; and tho top of tho table
was separated from its legs in an instant. Two per
sons in the store at the time; one, a young man,
standing near the door, was tossed into tho stroot, a
distance of neatly twonty feet; tho other, a lady, was
prostrated and rendered senseless; bnt neither were
seriously Injured. Tho deceased was about 30 years
of ago, and married, but without children.— Utica
Herald.
Fiust Fruits of the Grabt Coal Fraud.—Tho
mines and effects of tho Brothers Payne have been
seized under a judgment—taken on judgment bond
of Messrs. Newell, Sturdevaut A Co., for forty-six
thousand dollars—4oublo tho amount, wo suppose, of
the debt, the creditors probably anticipating other
claims to pour In from the Injured parties.
Tbe Reading company is understood to havo tho
means of detecting every ton of which they and the
customers ot tho guilty miners have been defrauded;
so that, so soon as the accounts are summed up, there
will be a general pushing of refundment. The trade
aeem to tmnk It the money Ib paid back, none of the
sufferers will prosecute criminally, unless obliged to
do so. Wo trust that crime in high quarters will not
be allowed to escape at so cheap a nUir-Phila. Reg.,

Bishop Ives.—A paragraph is going tho rounds of
the nowspapor press, and which wo have also oopied,
to tho effect that Bishop Ivsa had notified his wife,
that being about to outer tho Catholic Priesthood, she
must regard their coujugel bonds henceforth and for-
evor dissolved. In copying tho paragraph wo sup
posed the separation to bo consented to by Mrs. Ives,
in order that tho marriage relationship should be no
Impediment to tho chosen courso of tho late Bishop.
Wo are now satisfied tho whole statement is incor
rect, inasmuch as by the rules of the Catholic Church
a wifo caunot bo so put away. Nothing but the death
of the wifo caunbsolvo tho husband from his mar
riage obligation, aud until so absolved ho cannot be
allowed tho orders of priosthood. A further ruloof
tho church is that oven in the case of lawful dlVorco,
for cause, neither party Is again allowed to marry.

Weilcynn Female College.
Macon, Ga., July 15th, 1853.
Messrs. Editors .-—Presuming a short notice of the recent
commencement of tho Femnle College here, would not be
unluteresting to your reader*, I hereby give you a ihort
account of the more prominent parts of it:
The attendance was amaller than is usual, and tbe bright
faces and sparkling eyes that wo were wont to behold in
such largo profusion, were, for the most part,absent, giving
to tbe spectators, however, more opportunity of admiring
those who graced tho occasion by their presence.
The examination of the classes was, as usual, attended
by a brilliant throng, who seemed much interested in the
advancement of the girls; but, on Wednesday, tlio gradu
ating clai* road their compositions in tbe Methodist Church,
and as this is regarded as tho trial tost of their accomplish
ments. many a heart beat rapidly, and many a throb of
restloss anxiety roso within tho b.-easts of tho fair young
graduates. The salutatory was a vory flue composition,
and wsb road with a liquid closr voico. Tho composition
of " Woman’s Rights ” was a most excellent thing, and the
claim which the fair orator preferred for tho free and inde
pendent exercise of woman's judgment, and her rights in
tho scale of social civilization, was warmly responded to,
although tho fair and Blunder form of tlie speaker was proof
that Woman’s Right was Man’s Protection: at the conclu
sion she remarked, that 11 Woman’s destiny was onward—
that she would yet wield tho broomstick as scoptro, and
bind tho fragments of this glorious Union together with
apron strings.” The loud applause with which this was
followed was peremptorily sllonced by tho President, who
evidenced great fear of applause, because, I presume, he
recolvcs so little of it. although tbe trustees of tho church,
ns he stated, had only consented to its uso on that condi
tion. I know not tlie reason that induces men to such
starched views, aVfor myself, I cannot boliove it eithor con
trary to scripturo or morality.
Tlie compositions were all good, and generally well read;
and the graco and action observed, showed their training
to be not only mental, but also for tho propor development
of the natural gracos.
On tho socond dny’s reading, there was less timidity
shown then on tho preceding day, and finely written com-
positions, ranging from " grave to gay,” wore read with
great clearness. Tlie sunny land of Florida being beauti
fully represented ; and indeed wo may not wonder at the
brilliant beauties that deck our collcgo halls from that
loved land, for tho sun of heaven never unfolded a lovellor
blossom within her borders than some of the fair and radi
ant beauties that havo been nurtured beneath its rays:
•‘the world without tho biblo” would be no loss sad a pic
ture than Florida without such flowers. “ Old Bachelors ”
was denounced as unprofitable, by a smart young girl, and
mony on old fellow might hare joyfully exclaimed :
“ If thy hand lay mo low,
Then is pleasure in tho blow ! ”
But a Tew minutes had scarco elapsod ere an advocate, as
eloquent as Horienala, and as bright as tho daughter* of
Delos, roso up to praise him; oh, how tho withered heart
must hare leaped in felicity at the swoet cadonce of such
an advocate. A very boautiful composition was road on
“ Woman’s Relation to tho Temperance Cause,” by 11 bril
liant star from tho Columbus constellation. Tho Valedic
tory was fino in its conception and delivery; seldom liavo
we heard a production of more merit j it was chaste in dic
tion and ornate In style, without profusion; full of tho
moat thrilling pathos, that melted In harmony from the
lips of tho speaker.
Tho exercises closed hy an addresH from Hon. H. V. John
son. It was a finished production, and bore tho impress of
a master hand. Tho duties and responsibilities of woman
Were eloquently and graphically delinlated—tho relations
she boro as mother and wifo chastely nnd beautifully drawn
—philosophy and belles-lettres sparkled in every sentiment
—and marriage as the aim of happiness, and the necessity
for a choice, not originating in sordid views of wealth or
distinction, but in congeniality o'f sentiment and tastes,
forcibly impressed. Mr. Johnson is not an orator, but for
force and perspicuity, brilliant thoughts and chastely fin
ished metaphors, delivered in a strong, impressive manner,
imbued with enrnostness and zeal, ho stands unrivalled ;
he lacks tho Impassioned fire and kindling fancy, the free
dom and the fluency, which tho truo orator hath,
Tho sermon of l>r. Cross was a very excellent production
—abounding with the liveliest imagery and the gorgeous
docorations of a classic mind.
Tho whole affair was one long to bo remembered by the
spectators for its interesting incidents; and by the young
girls, who havo just launched on life’s voyage, after years
have sped over them “ ns the greonest spot In memory’s
wauto,” mav the world for them be unclouded with care,
nnd may it be radiant whh joy, and hopo glitter along tho
waters over which they glide :
“ And may their llfo forever prove.

RUBSIA—NESSELnODR'S CIRCULAR.
The following is the note addressed by Count Nes
selrode to Reschid Pascha, to which we have already
referrcl:
St. Petersburg, May 31.1853.
Sm-The Emperor, iny august master, 1ms just
been irforraed that liis ambassador has been under
tho neiessity of leaving Constantinople, In conse
quence of the peremptory refusal of the Porte to take
towards the Imperial Government of Russia the
smallest engagement of a noture to ro-ossuro itjol the
protective intentions of the Ottoman Government,
with rejard to the orthodox worship and churches iu
Turkey
It is After a fruitless sojourn of three months—after
having exhausted, by word of mouth and by writing,
all tho: truth, benevolence, nnd a spirit of concilia
tion could dictate—it is, finally, after having endeav
ored tomeet (teenager) all the scruples of the Porte
by successive modifications to which ho had consent
ed in tie terms and the form of the guarantees which
ho wasinstrnctsd to demand—that Prince Mcnschi-
koff win compelled to take tho determination which
tho Errperor learns with sorrow, but of which ho
could bit entirely approve.
Your Excellency is too enlightened not to foresee
tho conseqnenco of tho interruption of our relations
with tho government of his highness. You are too
devoted to the true and permanent interests of your
sovereign and his Empire not to feel a profound re
gret in prevision 0!' tlie events which may follow, and
tho respjnsibllity of which must rest entirely on
those wiD provoke them.
Thus, in addrcss.np this letter to-day to your Ex
cellency, my only object is to put it in your power,
in so far as it is still possible, to render a most im
portant service to your sovereign. Place once more
the real situation of afiaira before his highness: ex
plain to him the noderation and tlie justice of the
demand of Russia; the very great insult done to the
Emperor by oppsing to hia intentions, which havo
constantly been friendly aud generous, unfounded
mistrust and inexcusable refusals.
The dignity of hi* Majesty, the interests of hia Em
pire, tho voico of bis conscience, do not permit him
to accept such proceedings in return for those which
he baa had, and itlll wishes to entertain, with Tur
key. He must leak to obtain their reparation, and to
provide agninai their recurrence in future.
In a few weeks the troops will receive tho order to
cross the froitiers of tho empire, not to wage war,
which it ia rqiugnant to his Majesty to undertake
against a Sovereign who it has always pleased him to
consider a simere ally, but to obtain tnoBe material
guarantees uitil the moment when brought to more
equitable son intents, tho Ottoman Government will
give to Rnssil the moral securities which she baa in
vain deraandtl for two years her representatives at
Constantlnopo.nnd in the last instance, by her am
bassador.
The draft tf the noto which Princo Menschikoff
I iresented to Jou is in your hands. Let your Excel-
ency hasten,after having obtained tho consent of
bis Highness .ho Sultan, to sign that note, sans van-
antes, aud to ransmit it without delay to our ambas
sador at Odcsn, where ho still sojourns.
I earnestly lope that at this dccissive moment the
counsel which I address to your Excellency, with tho
confidence wih which youv enlightened views and
patriotism incites me, will bo appreciated by you
and by your olleagues in tho Divan ; and tlmt, In
the interest o! peace, which wo ought all to bo equal
ly desirous ofmaintaining, it will bo adopted wituout
hesitation, anl without delay.
I am, A?. Nesselrode.
TURKEY.
The rumor #mt a loan is to bo negotiated for Tur
key under theauapicca of England and Franco in not
correct. Tho dfficulties that havo sprung up between
tlie fort and tlie Netherlands had been promptly ad
justed by the French aud English ministers at Con
stantinople,
The Turkish fleet is concentrated at tho northern
extremity of tie Bosphorous, from Thempia to the
Black Sea, anl consists of thirty-five ships, two of
them three-deckers, three two-deckers, two frigates,
four corvette,eight brigs, and eight steamers. This
force will be increased by eight ships recalled from
other stations, and eight others which are in course of
equipment at \hc arsenal. The preparations by laud
do not cease far a moment.
The correspondent of the London Morning Chron
icle says that tho Porte, emboldened by the presence
of the allied fleets, had followed up Its rejection of
the Russian ultimatum by a demand for armed inter
vention addressed to the other four great powers of
Europe. Thil statement wants confirmation.
From Viema, June 28, it was stated that on tho

board the steamer that was to convey him to Odessa.
By a dispatch from Trieste, Juno 29th, received at
London, July 1st, announcing the arrival of tho Lloyd
steamer from Constantinople with news to tho 20th,
M. Baibine’s leaving is confirmed.
The finnan guaranteeing the rights and privileges
of tho different religions bodies, was read on the 12th

thanking him for the protection, offered to liberty of
worship.
Merchant shipping is more wanted than ever at

M. Pereigny, the Minister of the Interior, summon
ed tho proprietors and editors of the Paris jonrnals,
to a conversation lately. In courso of tbe interview
tho minister stated that tho government intended to
relax rather than increase tlie restrictions of tho

with satisfaction. It is necessary to odd, that tho
consorshlp of the pre*9, which Formed one of tho
branches of the late police department, is now at

Admiral Laruase has been saporseedod la tho com

although not large, resulting in estimated satos of 7.000

advices gave a check to tho operations of Tuesday, which
were limited to 6,000 bales,holders evincing more anxiety
to realize. Tho transactions on Wednesday wore increased
to 8,000 bales by tbo tempting Inducements held out to

The question of the boundary of New Mexico Is a
continual aubjcct of discussion. The rumor that
Col. Gadsden, Minister Plenipotentiary, boa been in
structed to offor a pecuniary indemnity to Moxioo for
the Meallla Volley, does not seem to give much satis
faction. Moxioo appears thoroughly determined to
claim the Manilla valley. Mr. Jalazar Harregul.ohiof
of tlie Mexican Boundary Commission, has, wo learn
from tho Trait D'Union, sent to the Supreme Gov
ernment a long and interesting work on tho subject,
in which lie maintains with great ability that the
claim of Mexico to the territory in dispute is incon-
testiblo, and results from tho stipulations of tho trea
ty of Gundaloupe. Ho says that iio will resign Ids
commission forthwith, it the Mcxioau government
yields a single tittle to the pretensions of Gen. Lane.
On the Southern portion of tho Republic, near Gua

three thousand fugitives have passed over into Guate

A publication has beon made of tlie import and
export trade of Mexico with the United States, from
1829 to 1851. It has fluctuated greatly, and lias in
tho main steadily abated. In 1829, for instance, tlie
imports were $5,926,761 and the exports$2,231.151.—
In 1832, tho former reached nine and a half millions,
and the latter nine millions; in 1851, tho importa

The Vicinity of the Crystal Palace.
A New York correspondent gives the following
glimpso at the surroundings of the Palace:
This is Crystal Palace week—that is to say, this is
the week the Palace is expected to “ open." Ac
cordingly, ail is hurry ond bustle up in that neigh
borhood. Tho boarding houses arc in a state of great
oxcitemont, fixing up accommodations, and tlie city
railroads every trip are literally loaded with humans,
from tbo country, going up to get a glimpse of " the
elephant.”
The man that exhibits the pig with six legs, is
making money fast, while his neighbor, the clmp that
shows tlie mammoth oxen, in a “ ranch " near by,
says lie has made moiomonoy the few days past than
tho original cost of the miinmls. Tlie rattlesnake
monger is also in ccstocics, as is also tbe woman who
Bhows up the " giant babies ’’ at three cents a peep.
Grog Hows in little oceans all around and about, as
if in opposition to the Croton water reservoir, near
by. Then there aro dance houses, and places where
the little joker is going all the while, relieving the
green ’uns of their ready money, and laughing to
scorn tho praiseworthy exertions of tho American
Society for the Suppression of Gambling.
As tor tho Palace itself, a gentleman of tho Press,
who visited the interior this morning, soya tho pic
ture presented is ono of superlative confusion and
chaos. Boxes and bundles are piled up from pit to
dome, nnd the trumpery “ from all nations ’’ that lie
scattered all about the entrances, makes one wonder
where they are going to put it—and to wonder tbe
more especially, how they aro going to create any
sort of order out of so much disorder, by tho 14th.
High Price of Negroes.
Wo know not to what cause to attribute it, but bet
ter prices have been oU'ered by traders for this de
scription of property, than we havo ever before
known. Negro fellows of very ordinary appearance,
are bringing ono thousand dollars very readily.—
Women are selling for very largo prices, varying
from Heven hundred to ono thousand dollars. Boys
weighing about fifty pounds, can be sold for about
five hundred dollars. This is tho time for selling, if
any one is so disposed.—Anderson Gazette.
We would also remark, that about tho samo state
of things exists in this town, aud the prospect is,
that negroes are going still higher. We know of ono
broker, (Mr. M. Co dy,) who sold a number of no
groes last week, men and women, at prices ranging
from $825 to $1,200; and wo learn that lie has also
sold men, without any trade, as high as $1,300- II
realy seems that there Is to be no stop to the rise.—
This species of property is at least 20 per cent high
er now, (in the dull season of the year,) than it was
last January, when every body seemed to bo In the
market making preparations for the present year.—
What negroes will bring next January, it is impossi
ble for mortal man to say. An intimate acquaintance
of ours had occasion on Saturday last ot buying a
houso girl, and the price was only the small sum of
$1,000.— Wilmington Journal, 12th.
The Physical Condition of JUIncks North and
South.
Tho Richmond Examiner publishes an interesting
statistical article, contrasting the physical condition
of tho free blacks of the North, ana the slaves of the
South. The Examiner Bays :
In Maine, there are 1355 free blacks, of whom 94
are insauo—one to fourteen! In Louisiana, there were
45 insane out of 103,194 slaves—one in every four
thousand three hundred and ten. In Massachusetts,
the ratio of iusaoity among tho free negroes was one
to every 43. In Virginia, 1 to 1286. In Missouri, 1
to 979. In Illinois, 1 to 47. Tho census of 1850 show
ed that there was one blind person to every 2445
whites, 1 blind to every 2645 Blaves, whilst among tho
free colored persons of the Paradise of tho Abolition
ists at tbe North, there is one blind to every eight
hundred and seventy. There ia one idiot to every
1040 alaveB, and one idiot to every 436 free blacks ut
tho North 1 The total of afflicted, of blind, deaf, dumb,
idiotic, and insane among slaves at the South, is one
to every 1057—while .these horrid maladies are en
dured among tho free blacks of tho North, tinder tho
care of Gerrit Smith, Garrison, Aunt Harriet, and
Douglass, in tho ratio of one to every three hundred
and eleven!
A Good Toast.—" The Ladies—Our stars before
marriago, and our stripes after."
It is not a good toast, and tho fool who gave it
ought to bo hustled out of society. The ladies are
our stars always—before and alter marriage. They
are tho stars that lead us on to tho brighter, bettor
deeds—stars that throw gleams of joy and happiness
over life’s dark pathway. What ir one now and then
does-disappear amid tho clouds of prido, or dimmed
by tho mist of fashion, they only make thoso that re
main tho dearer to ns. Stripes indeed 1 Possibly
the chap who gave that toast is so infernal ugly and
cross-grained that hia wife has to become a stripe—
to bo even with him.—Villager.
Dobbio Bays tho Devil is an allegorical character,
and means debt. To debt ho traces ail tho prido aud
troubio in the world, and a large portiou of crime.—
Running in debt leads to imprudence ; imprudence
to dissipation ; and dissipation to night brawling,
low spirits, ugliness and assault and bnttery. Going
on tics has ruined more men than gin aud sugar. It
kills Industry, and checks economy. The man who
pays cash for his purchases will make a dollar go as
far again as any other person. Btriko ledger* out of
existence, aud the world would once more return to
tho golden nge. There would bo no more law suits,
no more endorsements, no deputy sheriife, no sealing
wax, no red tapo, no aolf-murdors—in short, no noth
ing but industry and perseverance—high spirits aud
receipted board bill*. Great invention, that cam.

is no Ill-considered assertion. Figures and facts bear it out.
Tho sales nverngo a million of bottles a year: the receipts,
