were almost unanimous in favor of liberal
appropriations to clear out the rivers. The
cnauge may be owing to the stride railroads
have made in the Lone Star States.
A new crossing had beeu discovered on
the Rio Grande, which it was believed
would shorten the distance between San
Antonio and Chihuahua, three hundred
miles.

POLITICAL.
The aspect in Eastern affairs is unchang
ed. Every thing remains quiet since the
announcement that the Porte had accepted
the note of the four powers. The Molda
vian Divan had been convoked and the
llospodars solicited to remain. The Czar
gave them permission to remain or go to
Constantinople.
Redschid Pacha had notified the Austrian
government that the occupation service
would be regarded as a declaration of war.
The Porte in the meantime undertakes
to preserve order in the Principalities.
ENGLAND.
The debate in Parliament on the Eastern
question was regarded as unsatisfactory.
Consols fell, but subsequently revived. Lord
John Russell stated that the Musquito ques
tion was in negotiation, and he hoped, a
satisfactory result.

Washing Clothes of all Hinds
Made Easy.
I have a small family—my wife, myself,
and two small children; and altogether, we
have two grown women, two half-grown
girls, and a negro'-fellovv, to serve us as lot
servants. Ihree days of the week used to
be wasted by the women in washing, and
the other three in ironing for our little fam
ily; and often when the service of the girls
I was needed, they were found drawing wa-
1 ter or replenishing the fire for the washers.
Judge then our joy, if you can when a kind
old friend instructed us how to have our
washing doue in six hours by one hand. I
feel like proclaiming it to the world, and I
want every paper in Georgia to copy this,
and hope it may reach the ends of the earth.
But here is the modus operandi:
1st. On the night preceding the day, in-
‘ tended to be set apart as wash-day, have all
your clothes white and colored, coarse and
fine, put in tubs of clear water (we have one
made large enough to hold all the “wash
ing”) and let them remain there all night.
! 2nd. Put on your boiling vessel, (we Lave
one that holds sixty gallons, got for the ex-
| press purpose of boiling all at once,) fill it
, half full of water, and raise the water to
j boiling heat, after which put in a vessel of
the size of the one we use,

Narrow Escape of a Missonery.—Rev.
John A. Butler, of Boston, a missionary of
the American Board in South America, had
a narrow escape from a horrible death a few
mouths ago. It appears that he attempted
to ford the river Umkomazi, on horseback,
and when about tvvo-tbirds of the way across
his horse suddenly kicked and plunged, as
if to disengage himself from his rider, and
the next moment a crocodile seized Mr.
Butler’s thigh with his horrible jaws. Mr.
Butler, wheu he felt the sharp teeth of the
crocodile, cluug to the mane of his horse
with a death hold. Instantly he was drag
ged from the saddle, and both he and the
horse were floundering in water, often drag
ged entirely under, and going down the
stream. At first the erocodile drew them to
the middle of the river; but at last ihe horse
gained shallow water and approached the
shore. As soon as he was within reach na
tives ran to his assistance, and beat off the
crocodile widi spears and clubs.
Mr. Butler was pierced with five deep
gashes, and had lost much blood. He left
ail his garments, except his shirt and coat,
on the opposite shore with a native who was
to follow him; but when the struggle com
menced, the native returned and durst not
venture into the water again. It was now
dark; and without garments, and weak from
loss of blood, he had seven miles to ride. He
borrowed a blanket of a native, and alter
two hours, succeeded in reaching the sta
tion, more dead than alive. His horse al
so was terribly mangled; a foot square of
flesh and skin was torn from his flanks. For
ten days Mr. Butler remained in a danger
ous condition, being seized with fever and
threatened with lockjaw; but in April, wheu
last heard from, was recovering.

Uncertain Property.—Two gentlemen in
one of the southern states, owned a slave
together. He was a valuable servant, a
smart, industrious, and withal, a genuine
darkey. One of the owners becoming
straightened in circumstances, was obliged
to-sell his share in Tom. He was accord
ingly set up at auction, and after some at
tempt to sell him Tom made a bid on his
own hook, and the auctioneer knocked him
off, (or rather half of him,) to himself. Tom,
evidently very well satisfied with his bar
gain, stepped down from the auction block,
when one of the bystanders accosted him:
“Tom, what did you buy half of your
selffor?,the other half belongs to somebody
else, and you will be just as much a slave as
ever.”
“Oh,” says Tom, with a grin, “pretty
good nigger-thought I’d have an interest
n him!”
A few days afterwards while Tom was
sailing :in a dory, the boat capsized and
sunk, leaving him in a very critical coudi
tion. Being a strong fellow, he made for
the shore, a lbng distance off,-after a hard
struggle he reached it, almost exhausted.
He scarcely gained a foothold when he met
the same person who 'questioned him at the
sale. . The first salutation was.—
“Come, Tom, now tell me how r you came
to bid off half of yourself the other day ?”
