Stevenson & Smith, Proprietors, aii-i'ioiiM Thoutrlita for (iundii) Heading;- ON TIIB OLD SUL WAY. 0 happy home! 0 happy children here ! i,ii,ful mansions or our Father's house 1 0 walks surpassing Eden for delight! llere are the harvests reaped, ouoe sown in tears; Here is the rest by ministry enhanced ; jjure is the banquet of the w ine of heaven, niches of glory, incorruptible. I'rowns, amaranthine crowns of victory, the voice of harpers harping on their harps the anthems of the holy cherubim, the crystal river of the Spirit’s joy, the bridal palace of the Prince of Peace, the Holiest of Holies—God is here ! [Bifixntath. There are no new paths to honor anil ,riory! The fickle indices of perverted minds do not point over the mountains of iliiliculty and plains of danger to the re pose and happiness of the conquering spirit. They point to fields of present pleasure, where fountains of delicious, but failing, waters play iu beautiful ephemeral scenery; where bewitching music ravishes the ear and seduces the ,oul; where Time is euthroued upon a pyramid of flowers, and is crowned per petual youth; when, iu truth, he never appeared more stern audniever turned his sail eyes with so beseeching a piayer up ■on the gay and thoughtless revellers ; .where eternity is kept from view, and the dread tribunal and the august judge of quick and dead. T hey say, “ Let us eat and drink and vise up to play,” and see not the waiting presence of death with the irrevocable warrant which carries all to judgment. “ Life ” say they •• is for pleasure, and youth is but a preparation for it ”; that •• spring must not wear the sombre fashion of autumn, and the young life must have its follies, its intemperate delights, its worldly experience.” Not so the lessons and prayers of reason and conscience, whose rules and precepts the wise and good obey. They point to a future state. They plead for a good foun dation against the time to corue. They point to high and everlasting honors to be won by patient continuance in well doing. They warn of the allurements of sin, the emptiness of earthly pleasures, the deceit fulness of the unreuewed heart; and they commend the wisdom that lays up its treasures in heaven. They also speak of pleasures that perish not, as morning flow ers ; where capacity never fails, nor desire utter its want iu vain ; where nothing withers and nothing dies ! They speak of music from harps swept by angel fingers, balanced and sustained by the chorus of redeemed millions, forever with the Lord. They teach the pleasant lessons which qualify us for the exalted and immaculate associations of a perfect world :—associa tions so glorious that none are found able to present in language even our own conceptions of then). Aye, here end all our thoughts, and here the weary wings of ambition fold them selves, while, |with deep and wrapt devo tion the ennobled soul listens “to the great choral eucharist, the hymn of all crea tion's everlasting praise.” This is the goal to which our reason and conscience, under faithful culture, lead us. It is where the heart unutterably Jongs to dwell. It presents the satisfied aspects of home, and, while nothing seems strange all things are new'. It is home — the home of all our good thoughts ; inspi rations, desires, and resolves 1 Inarenult y of .Hew' York Thieve*. James L. McEwan, a merchant tailor at No. 44 East Twenty-third street, beneath Association Hall, closed his store for the night at 7:30 P. m , on Thursday last, and went home. The same evening a lec ture was given in the hall above, and nnany of the audience went to the building an carriages. In the line of carriages was one that stopped in front of the meTchant tailor’s. Four men got out of the carriage and walked to the door of McEwen’s store, One of the strangers apparently had the store key, for the front door was quickly opened and three of the men entered the store, one of the men remaining on the sidewalk in front ot the open door. Several acquaintances of Mr. McEwen passed the building and saw the strange men inside the store, within which a bright gaslight was burning, but thinking that clerks were making an inventory of the stock, passed on without stopping. In the store were three dogs of Mr. McEwen’s two of which were loose, while the other was chained. The dogs, upon seeing the strangers enter the store, began to bark, and the two that were free attacked the men. The strangers kicked at the dogs and struck them with clubs, and finally drove them beneath the counters. The most savage and largest of the dogs was ‘Chained. He, however, was so savage that the strangers kept out of his reach, and in this way the most valuable goods were saved. The strangers collected a large quantity of goods, boldly carried them out of the store and putting them in a carriage, drove away with the plunder. A private watch man in passing by the building stumbled against something on the sidewalk, and discovered that it was a jimmy. He in spected the stores in the vicinity and found that the door of the merchant tailor's store had been forced open, evidently with the jimmy. Mr. McEwin was at once informed of the burglary, and on examin ing his goods found that clothing worth S4OOO had been stolen. The week in Wall Street closed with an advance in gold to 117, the rise being -chiefly dne to the enormous importations of foreign merchandise, the total for the week having been $13,884,000, or at the rate of nearly $2,000,000 a day. The rumor also prevailed that the April state ment of the public debt would show an in crease. Furthermore, the Bank of Eng land has raised the rate of discount to foul per cent. — Herald. ♦ The Harpers consume 1,500 reaim o; paper per month for their Magazine aloDe This shows where the paper goes to.

A young negro hoy, about thirteen years of age, was caught iu tlie act of setting fire to the house of ])r. A. C. Malliews, in Elbertou. one night last week. The negro had already set fire to a parcel of bed clothing, and they were burning when the boy was discovered applying the torch to the house. The fire was suppressed with out any great damage being done. The Arkwright Cotton Factory, of Sa vannah, made its first shipment of goods on Saturday—eight bales of yarns—to Philadelphia.

NINE TIMES MAIUUED—FROM AN EARL TO AN AUAH One of the strangest current of modern times just teruiinatod in the death of Lady Ellenborough at Damascus. Forty years ago he was one of the most noted women in Europe, and her residence in the East has lang been a sort of scanda lous romance. The daughter of the late Admiral Sir Henry I)igbe, beautiful witty, and rich, she married in 1834 the Earl of Edinburgh, who was afterward Gov ernor-General of India, and who at that time was one of the most brilliant men of the day. She was about seventeen years of age at the time of her marriage, and Ellenborough who was a widower, was thirty four. They lived together some six years, and her dissolute conduct was a cause of scan dal for some time previous to the catastro phe of her elopement with Prince Felix IScliwarzenberg, a celebrated roue, then Austrian Minister in London. The event caused an immense sensation in the world of aristocracy and fashion. Ellenborough procured a divorce from Parliament, and never married again ; but his runaway wife soon separated from Schwarzenberg, and in 1832 married Baron Veuniugen, a Bavarian. Tiring ©f him presently, and with her great wealth and personal fascinations having little difficulty in procuring di vorces under the easy laws of Germany, she was married in succession to five other individuals ; but as none of these unions met her expectations, they were all dissolved after a short duration. In 1848 she was living in Athens with her eighth husband, a Greek Colonel, Count Tlieo doki; but without waiting to become a widow, she had this marriage also dis solved, and set out for the Levant. Dur ing a journey from Beyrout to Damascus, she found anew affinity in the person of an Arab camel driver, known as Sheikh Abdul, whom she married after the Arab fashion, and who was the ninth and last of her conugal partners. For a whole year she accompanied him on his journeys between Beyrout and Babylon, faithfully fulfilling all the duties of a camel driver’s wife, even to milking the camels. Tiring of this nomadic life, she built for herself a charming palace in Damascus, where she has since lived in her own style, a great subject of curiosity to all European, travelers. Abdul, con tinuing in business as a camel driver, was always hospitably entertained by her whenever he came to the place. And now she is dead, having completed neaily three score and ten years, leaving a colos sal fortune to her relatives of the Digby family in England and a memory of warn ing and of shame. The Farrigut Prize Claims. —Yes- terday, iH the District Court, before Judge Humphreys, the case of the Farragut Claims for prize money for the destruction of rebel vessels in forcing the passage to New Orleans, of which the arbitrators a day or two ago filed their report awarding $268,000 was up, and Mr. Corwine, lor the Navy Department, moved that the arbi trators file the evidence taken. Judge Humphreys overruled the motion and General Butler, for the claimants, moved a decree on the award. To day the hear ing was resumed. Mr. Corwin filed ex ceptions to the arbitrator’s report. These exceptions were not argued, but were overruled by Judge Humphreys. Mr. Corwine then renewed the mo'ion to 1 direct the arbitrators to send up the evi ; dence on which their award was based. I This motion was overruled by the Judge, ! and thereupon the counsel for the captors, i etc , moved that the Court do enter a I deeree confirming the aw ird of the arbi trators and ordering the payment of the money, which was done.
