SOMETHING TO LAUGH AT. It is refreshing, indeed, to get a brief respite from the excitement occasioned by military ru mors from the Rio Grande and political gossip from tne capital. With no arrivals from the seat of war and no mails from the North, we have found a half hour to look into literary paper*. The fir-t one we open utlbrds us a laugh. The “Literary World” notices a lile of the late Uev- Richard Harris Barham, the author of the “InJ goldsbv Le'Jends,” and quotes from it some good] stories, which we at once extract. No matter] whether one has seen them before or not, they] are of the kind that will bear repeating : { .V. O. Picayune. j Mr. Barham’s Rkpi.v to ms Tutor.— Hisl reply to Mr. Hudson, his tutor, afterwards prinei-l pal of Hra/.enose, will convey some notion of tin* hours he w. is wont to keep. This gentleman, I who (double's..- discerning, spite of an apparent levity, much that was amiable and high-minded in his pupil)treated him with marked indulgence, sent, however, on one occasion, to demand an explanation of his continued absence from morn ing chapel. “The fact is, sir,” urged the pupil, “you are too late lor me.” “Too late ! ” repeat ed the tutor in astonishment. “ Yes, sir ; I can not sit up until 7 o’clock in the morning. I am a man ot regular habits, and unless L get to !>< < I by four or live, at least, 1 am really lit (or nothing I uexl day.” Throdork Hook’s Hoaxino. —Hook called, and in (he course of conversation gave me an account of his going to Lord Melville’s trial with a friend. They went early and were engaged in conversation when the peers began to enter. At this moment a country-looking lady, whom he afterwards found to be a resident at Rye, in Sus sex, touched his arm and said—“ I beg your par don, sir. but pray who are those gentlemen in red now coming in?” “Those, ma’am,” re plied Theodore, “are the barons of England: in these cases the junior peers always come tirst.” “ Thank you, sir ; much obliged to you. Louisa, my dfear, [turning to a girl of about fourteen] tell Jane [about ten] those ire the barons of Eng land, and the juniors (that’s the youngest, you know) always goes tirst. Tell her to be sure and remember that when we get home.” “ Dear me, ma ! ” exclaimed Louisa, “can that gentle man be one of the youngest ? I am sure he I looks very old 1 ” Human nature could not with- ! stand this; any one, though with no more mis- j chief in him than a dove, must have been excited ! to a hoax. “And pray, sir,” continued the lady, \ “ what gentlemen are these ? ” pointing to the I “i > a good year ! ” “Mo such tiling, my dear mad am, I assure you,” replied Hook, with a gravity that must have hern preternatural: “it has been, 1 know, so reported in the country, but without the least tbundulion ; the tact is, those rascally newspapers will say anything.” The good old gentlewoman appeared thunder-struck, opened her eyes to their full extent, and gaped like a dying carp, vox faucibus haitit, and seizing a daughter with each hand, she hurried from the spot without a word. Attar MI! NT wmi a Materialist.—His per tinent question to a French savan at 11 House deserves men as a favorable specimen of conversational adroitness. The gentleman in question (not, perhaps, in the best possible taste) had been indulging, both before and during din ner, in a variety of free-thinking speculations, and ended by avowing himself a materialist. “ Very good soup, this,” said Mr. Smith. “ Out, monsieur; c'esl exccllentc.” “ Fray, sir, do you believe in a cook ? ” “An Accomplished Young Lady.—The New York “Judy” gives the following sketch, which an intelligent critic says is worthy of “ Punch:” Next to a veritable ghost, or a dreadful attack of nightmare, an accomplished young lady of the boarding-school production is our greatest hor ror, and there are few families nowadays of many daughters in which we do not stumble against one of these monstrosities. We can tolerate a In jus natural of woman-kind when na ture, in an eccentric or humorous moment, be stows a manly intellect, because in such cases we do not look for the kindly and lovely graces of the genuine woman; we expect nothing but philosophy and steam engines, and are not dis appointed. But we have no such forbearance in rclatio i to your boarding-school misses of the “accomplished ’ brand. They are among the nuisances which should be “put down.” Woe betide the unhappy girl who in early life be trayed the least degree of intellect above the true appreciation of a dollar or a stick of candy. Her fate is sealed. She is destined to be the mental representative of the family circle! and heaven knows she will do full justice to her con. ■tituency, if the modern system of training be only brought to bear upon her education. Her range of studies does not include the kitchen, range, and her catalogue of duties does not cm. brace those common-place affairs which belong to the sister, wife or mother. It is pleasant to loiqk upon the accomplished young lady in the incipient stage of girlhood, just when the mother. .tHacoveied beauties of her mind are beginning to sprout, she is such an interesting creature. We are bound with tin “ma"to wonder how •uch varied accomplishments can lx- found in company with such extremely juvenile pantalets, and are bewildered with the thought that a pow. erfnl intellect should select a residence of such infantile capacity. Samplers and albums are very well in their way, and we do not object even to sec the piano tortured liy red angular el. bows and bony lingers, providing always that a due regard la* paid to the philosophy of puddings and eotl'ee. There may he men who ran break, last on had French, dine on musir, and sup on poetry, who would pay couit and even be rash enough to many mi accomplished young lady; (tut for our part wo like the substantia Is, and when we me hungry would rather our wife should give us something more satislhctnry than “the fent of reason and the flow of soul."’ Why is cotton heuouiing distinguished ’ Because it begins to male a great noise in the world. TRY IT ON. The Knickerbocker tells an excellen of Burchard. the revivalist; not of him, exactly, either, but of what happened at the close of one of his meetings. He was in] the habit ol addressing his congregation ii this wise : “ lam now going to pray : and 1 want aft dial desire to he prayed_Jfli^_Hi_iii_JHiXD-aiut-a£ eitement in the audience, that Oziel was a “hard case.” “What is your name, Sir ?—and who is Mr. Thompson ?” “It’s Jim Thompson ; he keeps a tavern in Tompsonville, and I keep a public house a lit tle below him. He is an infernal scoundrel and I want you to give him a lift.” “But,” said Mr. B. “have you faith in the efficacy of prayer? Do you believe in the pow er of petition?” “That’s neither here nor there,” responded Oziel, “7 want you to try it on him!” Babiks. —Somebody not very fond of that class of juveniles'called babies, says:—“We never saw a baby yet, however smart at home, that did credit to itself in a public assembly.” 05” “Come here, you mischievous little ras cal you!” “ Won’t you lick me, father ?” “No!” i “ Will you swear you won’t ?” 1 “Yes!” I “ Then I won’t come, father, for Parson Al- Ivood says, ‘he that swears will lie.” I 05” “Did you report that I was a thief, sir ?” Bngrily inquired Snooks, the other day, to one Bf his neighbors.

Political Thieves. —SomejfeUpvvs in Eng land lately stole, a sheep, which they killed in the field, carrying away the flesh and leaving the skin——attached to it was the following eflu sion: “Potatoes are scarce, turnips are thin, \V e take the carcass, and leave you the skin.” An unfortunate Dutchman. —‘Poor Hans ! he hit himself mil a rattle snake, and vasli sick into his ped for six weeks, in te month of An- j gust. And he coot’nt speak till he complained : of being a little petter so ash he could stand up ! on his elbow and eat a little tea.” * Why is a wine drinker like one who takes otl’ an embargo ? Because he opens the port. When a fellow sets his dog on you, it is probable that ho has no great respect for your good opinion. It is very well to get the good opinion ol pen. pie ifyou can do it honestly—but if it is done dishonestly, remember there may he a day of reckoning when your false smiles will sink you : lower than ever. ‘Sam, and n’t you think Mrs. Joues is a very smart woman ?’ ‘The deuce !

M raw lord, in compiling a Map <f the State of Georgia, on a scale of six miles to the inch. The undertaking i is now nearly completed, and lie flatters himself tie , will receive the favorable patronage of his fellow-citi i zens—sufficient, at least, to have it published and placed in a durable form. I That a revised delineation is called for, of our ex j tensive territory, independently of what exists in the • labors ot St urges and Greene, will not lie questioned. The accumulation and possession, since their times, , of a vast body ol l.iiai designated then as wilderness, I or the temporary domain of the Indian tribes, witli nat i ural objects well worthy “a habitation and a name,” ■ have” been converted into organized counties, present ing a dense population, flourishing villages, and ex tensive public and private improvements. t The Map to be published (so soon as a .sufficient I number of subscribers will warrant.) is 5 feet by 4 and a inches, and is designed to exhibit as well as perpetuate the present condition of the whole topog raphy of the State. In addition to the ordinary metes j and bounds—courses of rivers and ranges of moun \ tains, Railroads, Canals, county sites, post offices, sac . tories, i fact all remarkable places of the past or pre i sent day, will be shown. The attention of the com i piler has been particularly directed to a faithful draw ing of county lines and public roads, and to accom plish such important ends, he has not only consulted the original surveys and the acts of various Legisla ; hires, but he deemed it the hotter plan to make rough sketches of each county and submit to the Justices of the Inferior Court, Post masters, and others equally compeut and obliging, and to ask for such ! additions and corrections as might be necessary, and 1 farther to designate any and all objects of natural cu riosity that might exist. To many, if not all of his ■ requests, kind, prompt and satisfactory answers were received, so that many glaring inaccuracies in the : maps heretofore published have been corrected ; and . the compiler lakes this occasion of returning his ac ! knowledgments to those wiio favored his objects, as j rendering a service not merely to himself, but aiding most m tterially in the thorough and correct develope meiit of the whole plan. To his brother Engineers of the ditleVent Railroads, his thanks are due for the use of maps which enabled him not only to lay down the true courses ol those important works, but likewise to ; make profiles exhibiting the elevation shore-the sea, of every station from the Atlantic to the Tennessee river. The Map will be embellished with views of the State House and Executive Mansion, and will be furnished to subscribers at their residences at ten dol lars per copy. W. G. BONNER, Fell. 18, HM7.

THE TREASURY OF HISTORY, Comprising a general Introductory Outline, if Univer- Ilistory, ancient a:ul modern, and a series if separate Histories if every grind] at Motion that exists, their rise, progress, present condition, tj-c. ij-c. BY SAMUEL MAUNDER, j Author of the “Treasury ol Know ledge, ’ “ Biographical Treasury,*' 11 Literary ud Scientific Treasury,” Ac. including THE HISTORY OF AMERICA, EDITED UY JOHN INMAN, ESQ. Til'', rep'iblication of this valuable Work has been i tin.lrrt.ikvn partly on account of the high favor with which it lias been received in England, hut chiefly in consideration of its intrinsic value, arising from its , felicitous adaptation of the plan to a want that has beet) long and generally felt, and from the judgment ami fidelity manifested in its execution. The idea of j giving in it single work,of no very formidable dimen j sinus, and at a price which brings it within the reach ot very moderate circumstances, a sufficient outline ] of the world's whole history, and similar outlines of the history of every nation, is so obviously judicious and appropriate ns to require no eiiiogiutn. Every j person who cares at all for the acquisition of useful knowledge, must desire to possess such a general knowledge of past events, nut only in hi* own country i but in all countries, us shall enable him to understand the perpetually recurring allusions that are found in almost any course of general reading; because lor want ol such iiuderstuudiug there is always a serious i diminution liotli of pleasure and profit even In the pc* j rusal of such works a* are designed chiefly I'oramuso [ incut. For instance, most of Kir Walter Scott's nev e's arc Imimled upon bisters', and shound with refer. ences to hiwtorial events and personages, a want of j some acquaintance with which detracts seriously fiom i the interest aud delight they are so well qualified to j awaken; and so of most other works belonging to the better class of what is called light literature. But the difficulty has been to obtain this general knowl edge without going through many books, requiring a j greater expenditure of time and money than most per ; sons are aide or willing to aftbrd; and to obviate sui h 1 difficulty has been the purpose of Mr. Maunder. Ilis plan has the merit of completeness, and is un doubtedly the best that could have been desired. He gives tirst a general sketch of ancient and modern | history— a rapid and comprehensive bird’s-eye view. : as it were, of the rise and progress of nations, the ! most important incidents of their career, and their re lations to each other ; and after this he takes up the I nations separately, furnishing a concise digest of all that is important or desirable to know concerning each, and thus afli.rding a sort ot key to the changes and events that were more briefly indicated rather h\ their re>ults than their incidents, in the general sketch ! or outline. Tims the salient points of history are i brought within a manageable compass; and an excel- I lent foundation is laid lor more thorough and exten- j sive reading in reference to any portion ot the world i or any epoch of which a knowledge may be desired. In the execution of this plan the author has been very successful. His notice.of historical events, tbo’ brie!, are lucid and satisfactory; and be traces the connection of effect and cause with singular acumen and genaraily with most cointneiulable freedom from partiality or bias ; thus supplying a very good idea ot the philosophy of history as uell as os the tacts whic h history records. In a word, the work will be found invaluable to the general reader and a very useful help to the student. Bs"Complete in two Volume*—lure* octavo —with cn ftrsvinge, •I.

While we heurtih re juice at the triumph of the principles which it has been onr constant effort to advocate and defend, and from which no prosperity, no adversity, can swerve us; w* cannot he unmindful ofthe attitude in which we are placed by a re cent vote of both houses of Congress—we allude to the cnntemplutcd withdrawal ol their patronage from the Newspaper press. To ibis decision we cheerfully bow, sensible as we are of the patriotic motives which have led to it. But we trust this decision of Congress increases rather than diminishes our claim to the support of a high er power—that o the People; and to them we conbdentlv appeal to aid us, by their patronage, in sustaining ut the seat of Government u journal that is inflexibly devoted to their interests and the true interests of the country. It is known to every one, that the chief source of sus taining a Newspaper is not the magnitude of the .subscrip tion list,so much ns the advertising patro> age which may he bestowed upon it. In large commercial cities, indeed, the latter is usually the concomitant ofthe former,as it be comes the obvious interest of mercantile men to advertise in those papers which are the most extensively circulated Washington, however, is differently situated. I)ep*ived ofthe advertising patrm age incident to a mercantile com munity. and burdened with peculiar and enormous expen ses which are not elsewhere incurred, nothing hut a very long list of subscribing patrons can sustain a paper in use fulness—if, indeed, even inexistence. The proprietors of the “Union*’ have hitheito spared no pains, and no ex pense, to make tlu ir paper worthy of the metropolis, and worthy of the support of that great parly under whose banner they are enlisted. In publishing the full and most ample debates of the two Houses of Congress, it is believ ed. ever before attempted on this continent in a daily pa per, thev have secured the services of the best Reporters which the country afforded, but at the enormous cost of sl2,ftoo or $15,000 ier year. Their extensive foreign and domestic correspondence is another large item of expense, hut the instructive usefulness of which is so highly com mended and appreciated ns to justify almost any outlay to attain it. Still, it must be evidem that these heavy ex penses cannot he home, unless the subscription li*t is commensurate to tho undertaking ; and although we can boast of 15.000 subscribers, (including dailv, iti weekly and weekly ,) yet this list must he considerably enlarged toennhle the proprietors ofthe “ Union” to sustain all its usefulness, and to insure them against pecuniary loss. In voking, then, again, the aid and support of all true friends of republican government, and pledging ourselves to re newed efforts in the cause <*f the glorious principles we cherish, we offer the following proposals:— (O*The Daily “Union will be published, as here tofore, at $lO per annum, payable in advance.
