In this atti tude the little band of Squatter Sover- eignty protestants and seceders from '.he Milledgeville Convention stand be fore the country. Their presence in Baltimore will be in opposition to the wishes of at least four-fifths of the pet nqqoratie party of Georgia, and their en dorsement of Squatter Sovereignty will be no more binding of the-party than- would be the vote of the delegation' in the same Convention from Massachu- its, and would exert no more influ ence on the vote of the State in the ap- nroaching Preudontif-l elsudon.-sSw. 'Newt. \ SIwoui.a* Cause and Eifeci.—A sin- Igular suicide was committed near (Liwrunceburg, Indiana, lust week, by a I Air. Joseph Grimsley, the cause of which appears to have been depression produced by the report of a dying I orother, who stated on his revival from la trance, believed to be death for a | time by all who were about him, that I he had been to heaven and seen there I all his family who were dead, and learn- led that all would go there except I Joseph. This announcement coming | from a dying—almost a dead brother, I seems to have disordered the poor fel- I low’s mind. He acted strangely for |several days afterwards, and finally dis- ppeared on Monday, week before last, ie was not found till the Saturday ■following, when two men in search of ■game accidently discovered him swing ling by the neok to a pole which crossed la deep ' ravine. The sick brother died | the same day the body was found. IUltoiox or the JavaS’is*.— 1 The or- I thodox religion of Japan is Sintoo—all I worship the sun. Their belief is that, Ithe world was regenerated through- the ■instrumentality and appearance on ■earth of a female, and after having per- |formed this great and good work, for Vhich by God she was ordained, she as- sended to heaven and became; embodied [in the sun. Their national flag is em blematical of their religion, displaying Its it does the sun in all its purity upon lthe white field. There are other .sects, Jind among them the most numerous ■would appear to-be followers .of Buddha. ■Many suppose that Buddhism is the ■principle creed, from the toot that its ■followers number three hundred and ■twenty millions; this and the Mahome- Idan religion being the principal creed lor religion of the nations of the East. ■ The founder of ilie Buddhist religion I was a man called Sukya Sinha, who was born, as was supposed, two thousand four hundred and twenty years before I Hie Christian era. It is not knowp for I a certainty when Biiddhism was ' first; I introduced into Japan. The statement. I so often made that Christianity is not I at the present in any way tolerated, is a I mistake, for the Government is far I from being intolerant in religious mat- Iters. The people of Japan attend very I little to religious matters. Religion is a ■matter of business, which is attended to Itogether by the Makado and his priests. Some of the Japanese attach- d to the Embassy worship Buddha, orae Sintoo, some Mahomet, and some vorship nothing. The two Ambassa dors and one of the interpreters are Buddhists; the Censor has no particular -oligion; the Vice Governor is partly biintoo and partly Buddhut. Abduction of Little Ella Bubnb.— This remarkable little girl, who excited Iso much attention in Philadelphia not ■long since, is missing, and a reward of ■one hundred dollars is offered, for her ■discovery. It will be remembered that I the child, pending some litigation be- I tween her father aud Mrs. Burns, to I whom she was indentured; was placed I by the Courts under the custody of a I New York lawyer, who in turn caused I her to be sent to a school kepjby^acler- [gyman in this city. From: this '.school ■little Ella—whose real name is Eva Bell' |W hit ton—was on the 21st of April in veigled under false pretences by. Mrs. [Burns. The child was dressed'ht/boy’s clothes, and Mrs. Burns, in comjiany with a man by the name of Dodge, were graced to the Delevan House,. Albany, there they registered their names as Mr. Dodge, Mrs. Burns and ton. They tore next traced to Buffalo, and there , track of the party was lost,—Pkla, .1. I *r* a- ~ __“Ain’tit curious, squire, weddin's i never out of women’s heads T They |iever think of nothing else. A young .1 is always tbinkin’ of her own. As on as she is marrried, she is match ma in’ for her companions; and when she i a grain older, lier darter’s waddin’ is Uppermost agin. Ob, it takes a great Itudy to know a woman. How cunnin’ hey are 1 Ask a young gal the news, lie’ll tell you of all the deaths in the llace, to make you think shedon’ttrou- llo herself about marriages. Ask an |ld woman, she’ll tell you of all the images, to make you think she’s -.dn’-an interest in the world that heaint. Tlioy certainly do beat all, |o women. Siward Shot Classically. — Mr. bombs, referring to Seward’s, defeat at hicago, said it .was “Acteeon devoured U his hounds l” Most apt and happy lustration 1 And the bi&est nound in lie pack—and the most cowardly—was loraoe Greeley I The Code of Honor. A writer in a Richmond journal gives some interesting details of the customs andmanhers of our present visitors.— What are regarded as acts of extreme politeness here, are deemed as acts of savage rudeness in Japan. To spit in the presence of a Japanese is a mortal offence, and “spitting,” like “whittling,” is an American “institu tion.” Imagine, therefore, the feelings of indignation, horror, and amazement with which the Japanese ambassadors will regard the expectorating perfor mances of a committee of the Common Council of New York, or a deputation of Congressmen. As the Japanese resent all the degradations and insults, not by killing their enemies; but by committing suicide, we fear that the blood of the whole embassy of unhappy strangers will be upon the hands of toe first tobacco-chewing committee into whose hands they may fall. The Ja panese teim for suicide is “happy dea- fi&tch.” The method of committing the “happy despatch” is regulated by a code of honor, to which all Japanese gentlemen Conform. If ti Japanese of good sooitil position is insulted, he at once selects a long, sharp knife, drives it up to the hilt in the region of the “upibilioal cord,” and rips himself up to the diaphram aud falls dead. The Japanese code of -honor requires the party who gives the insult to do precise ly the same thing, and, as a consequence of this invariably la al custom, the gentlemen of Japan are proverbially the most polite ana urbane men in the world. If the cot-e in this country was based! on sneb grounds, it would be u long time, we imagine, before this city would be excited over a duel, and Con gressmen would become the most cour teous people towards each other in their official intercourse. Militabv.—“Did the guard present arms to you, Mrs- Partington ?” asked a commissary, as he met her at tho entrance of a marquee. “Yqji mean the century ?” said she, smiling, “I have heard so much about the tainted field, that I believd I could deplore an attach ment into line myself, and secure them as well os an officer. You ask me if the guard presented arms. Ho didn’t; but a sweet little man, with an epilepsy on his shoulder and a smile on his face, did, and asked me if I wouldn’t go into a tent and smile, I told him that we could both smile as well outside, when politely touched his chateau and left me.” fteto fldbeHlgetpeofg.
