LADY SNOUTED. The G Acini Whipping in Public of Al. esasdrian Knooowits—The Penalty af Sympathy with Itehcls. At a gathering of Poles in the little vill tge of Kernst on the South ern Nnieman, on the 29th of July laaU tri>en all thought themselves secure from the intrusion of any of the numerous spies who keep the Knnian officials informed of the malcontents among them. Alex«- andrina Kossowitz, a young lady whose father, the younger son of a formerly noble Polish family, was killed in the recent troubles at Wuaaw, expressed her sympathy with the nnforttinates whom Rush sian severity had murdered or sent into exile. The meeting was a purely social one, and none dreamed that anything said there would reach the ears of spies, for all pre sent were known to be Poles, and firm haters of the harsh rule under which they then lived. Still, as the jam* girl^ in her passionate res membrances of a father’s love, de*. plored bis death, expressed her sympathy with rebellion and her detestation of her oppressors, she was cautioned lest her load tone would enable people at the window to hfTt her. WUh a hasty glance as though to read in the* faces of thpae about her who should betray bar, the young lady relapsed into silence: When ten o’clock arrived, the latest hour of Polish gatherings, the company separated, and the young lady, accompanied by her affianced, 'Julian Temensky, went to her home. If, in passing from the house of the gathering she had been more observant, Alexandrina would have seed <bb' toidiriously triumphant S aiMMUfftafter her by Catherine erkofT, a woman of about thirty five, a Pole by birth, and a sym pathizer with ner unhappy country women whenever her own passion was not concerned, and, from the rufbfry^fct^ Jrh|idMh| it seems that in tliis case she nod been suV peneded in the affections of the young Dr. Temensky by the more beautiful and younger Alexandrina Kossowitz. On the following day, shortly after rising, Alexandrina was seized in her own home, a short distance from Kernst, by two Cossacks of the guard at the garrison, and taken bofiwetfcepetty judge. .

In the hands of an experienced nlan the piece of raw hide Can be,made to cut like a knife. As the executioner stood feeing the scaffold Alexandrina KossowitsS was brought to him by her guard, and in a fer moments*her clothing was removed to the waist, despite her almost mute appeals to be spared the shame. As she pleaded she was bent on the plane, her hands strapped to the two upper corners, and her ankles secured at the feet of the structure. One of the exe* cutioner’s assistants held her head, and the petty judge gave the order for whipping to commence. Twirl ing the long lash in the air the exe cutioner stepped suddenly back wards, and with sharp crack the thong fell on the back of the sob* bing girl, catting a livid streak from her nght shoulder to he* waist A terrible tremor passed over her, and a low cry escaped her lips, but it was the only sound she uttered, and were it not -for the blood which commenced to flow,- might have seemed that the whipping was being done on the naked back of a corpse. When the lash had been given, the young lady was unfasten ed, and, with her clothing rudely thrown over her, she was taken to prison, and there, after thanking the judge for bis mercy, according to the necessary formula, she was delivered over to her friends. Five days afterwards, the Gazette of Wilna contained this announce* ment: “The Polish criminal, Al> exandrina Kossowitz (daughter of the rebel, Peter Kossowitz), who was knouted for seditious utterance on the 29tb of July at Kernst, while submitting her lacerations to medical treatment, in the house of the physician, Kemensky, stole a vial of prussic acid, with which she ended her days.” TiieLong Branch.—The Long Brancbers are doubtful of Grant’s reflection, and in order that the place may not lose the prestige of the Presidential presence, they pro pose to buv a good-sized plot of ground, erect upon it a magnificent cottage, furnish it from top to bot tom in the highest style, and then cede land and establinsment to the United States, as a summer resi dence for the Chief Magistrate. Tbe Long Branchers may as well defer the execution of this little project for fouryearaUt least Presi dent Greeley will require no sea* side establishment ue will spend' summer and winter in Washington, attending to his legitimate duties.

In the third degree of this uman misery, customers i have ta take their meals out of a hole made in a wooden block, beside wbich^an iron spoon is chained; cases of kleptomania are thus impossible. The price of a repast it next to nominal—from three to ten sons. At tbe Dalles Centrales is an out- of-the-way shop having for a signs board Tbe Changed Chemise. The man who wants a change of linen E uts down half a franc, and darts ehind a screen. A colloquy ensues between client and shopkeeper as to the largeness of neck and length of arms; finally, a white chemise is tossed over the screen, and '• the member of the sovereign people departs in due course, leaving his soiled garment behind. Hard on Editors.—An editor relates how a colored barber made a dead-head of him. He offered him the usual dime for shaving, wheh the fellow drew himself up with uoftaderable promposity. and said: “ I understand dat you is an editor?^ “Well, what of, it?" say we. “ We nebercharge editors naffin.” “ But, my wooly friend ” we continued, “there are a good many editors traveling nowadays, and such liberality on your part would prove a ruinous business." “.Ob, neber mind,” remarked the barber; “we make it np off de gemmeiL* What The People Pay Foil— Miss Nellie Grant's purchases of niillineiy, dry goods, etc., in Paris, is. set down by aTribune^corres pondent at a sum exceeding her __ ^ ^ lather’s yearly salary, whereupon idtifet hSSuon/utteram^ that “ fflh * «*»«**“ “ —•* might ka«| warranted Irina in send T | ing her before a higher tribunal, where, the penalty would be death; but in view of her yonth and cot * trition. he should merely order her to reoeive thirty-five lashes of the knot*.
