(Bcning STA. G A: SalunUy Evening, Fib. c . wSB - Sonthwwd. The state of things in Centj-al Araeri-1 ca and in Mexico, is attracting a very large share of attention in this country as well as abroad. Mexico is called a “sick man” and there are a number of parties ambitious to administer on his effects. General Wacker, once recognized as the legiti mate successor to Central American do minion, having abdicated, there is a still wider field for expansion amid the tropics. These have been regarded the natural “outlets” for slavery ; and our. leading statesmen— among whom are; the President aud Hon Wacker advo cated the annexation of Texas as open-. ing the door for such expansion. But the Freesoilers, having a keen scent for anything that relates to Sambo, are waking up to the necessity of meeting ; this movement, and are getting up Col- j onization Societies for Central America. ; They have so many elements of coloni zation as to render hopeless any eftort j to cope with them by legitimate South ern expansion. We have tried it in Kansas with a doubtful result; we have been trying it ever since the confedera tion , and from a very large majority of slave States, they have gradually gained upon us, until we are already at their mercy in Congress. Where this is to -end, it is impossible to foresee ; but it would seem to be time for the South to begin to look about, before Ehe is hedg ed in by the tide of free labor, now at- 1 tractcd to her Southern, as it hits long been to her Western borders. Yellow Fever at Norfolk.

[POOR PILLICODY. —o —■ I founded on the rorccAß theatrical PLAY OF THAT NAME. Mr. Fillicoddy ! Mr. Philliooddy !” exclaimed that gentleman's spouse, i hastily entering the garden, as he closed the gate behind him. “Why I thought i lie w : as here; I'm sure I heard a voice,” I she continued, looking about her in sur ! prise. “ Who am that lady he coming 1 down the road ? As I live, it s my sis ter thilia!” . , , , “Anastasia PillicoddyJ” ejaculated ; sister Julia iu a tone of voice that show ed something out of the common was to. I pay, as with a carpet-bag in one hand i and a big green umbrella in the other, she charged into the garden and at her ;sister, “Anastasia Pillicoddy, look me I in the face and tell me if I don’t look I the picture of misery ?” “ Why, Julia, what can be the mat ter?” said Mrs Pillicoddy, anxiously. ; “ Sit down and explain.” , “ I will ” ictuvned sister Julia, seat i ing herself on a bench by the side oi I Mrs. Pillicoddy. “ It's just four years (ago, Anastasia Pillicoddy, since you and II got up up one cold, frosty morning and walked to Gosport church, where we were severely united in the bonds of matrimony to the men of our hearts ; .'you to Captain Fitzpatrick O'Scuttie, |and I to his second cousin, Captain ' jFitzgerland O'Scuttie. At the end of three years, your husband disappeared jin a gale of wind, and left you a widow. 11 wish I could say the same of mine.” -1 Mrs. Pillicoddy intimated that she • was shocked. “ You think the expression too ener getic; wait till you have heard the atro ’ l cious particulars. When my husband sailed on his last voyage, a year ago, I f requested as a particular favor, to be al; . lowed to accompany him. He objected j the Lively Polly sailed without me, and r my huslnmd said he should return in , I six months ; at the end of that time, i I got a letter from him saying he should j not he back quite so soon. Three i j months more passed, and I got another . i letter, saying that he had been detained jby contrary winds and strong currents ! —very convenient things, these contra ry winds and strong currents. A whole | year passed, and I was gradually becorn | ing tolerable comfortable in my inflict ed state, when yesterday morning at } breakfast, news was brought me that the Lively Polly had been signalled off the port. Os course I went into exta cies, hut they didn’t last long; I had no sooner heard of the Lively Polly’s! j safe arrival, than in came the mate of j vessel, whom mv husband had sent on j j shore. He had two letters in his hand j ! one forme, and the other for an itimate I friend of my husband's. I offered to j j deliver it ; I took it and —” I “ Opened it ?” interrupted Mrs. Pilli-1 coddy. j “ Decidedly opened it! The contents j paralyzed me ! There’s tho letter —de-| jvour its contents ?” ! “ Dear Tom,” began Mr. Pillicoddy, J | taking the letter from her sister, and | reading aloud. j “ Yes, the letter’s addressed to Cap tain Thomas Trumpet—some marine monster I never hear of. But never j mind the first part ; come down to yhe P. S.” “ Postscript,” continued Mrs. Pilli j coddy. reading. “ I forgot to mention that I have brought Jenny with me— the dear creature I told you about.— Now, my dear Tom, you must take charge of her for the present, as mv j wife must be kept entirely in the dark ■ you understand ?”—Well, Julia, I must confess that your husband's conduct is ' suspicious, and I should advise you to I I return to Portsmouth immediately and i demand an explanation !” j “ You advise me to see the wretch I again !” exclaimed Julia, vehemently, i How, I should like to inquire, do you suppose he.can satisfactorialy explain I such a thing as this ? No, I’ll not go i back !” ! “ But lam afraid you cannot remain 1 ! here. Mr. Pillicooddy’s notion of fe male propriety are so scrupulous, that I'm sure he would severely blame your oouduct in leaving home. I think,how ever, 1 can find the accommodation yon require at the house of a friend of mine. ” “ 0, thank you !" returned Julia.ein hracing her sister. “Ha! some one is ; coming. ’ ’ j “ Then step into this room, and I’ll j rejoin you immediately,” said Mrs. I’il | licoddy, showing hev sister in at one | door and herself out at other, about j half a second before the somebody that was coming actually did come. The new arrival was a large man of! rather salt appearance, dressed in a rough pea-jacket, hell muzzled duck I breeches, a tarpaulin hat, and armed | witii a long spy-glass. He entered on j j the run. took aim with his telescope, j looked earnestly and carefully about j the garden, and began pacing rapidly j to and fro on one of the walks. “ I can’t he mistaken !” he muttered to himself. “ No, I saw a female enter this house ; a smart, rakish-looking lit tle craft, just the same build and rig ging as Mrs. O'Scuttie ; hut for the life of me I couldn’t distiguish her figure head. However, I've traced her to j Southampton, and, by the powers, I'll j j not give up the chase till I discover her j | latitude and longitude. [Suddenly he j (aimed his glass again.] Hullo I—stop !, (1 11 trouble you to shorten sail aud I bring to.” ’ , j ” Bring two!—two what?” asked Mr.' i Pillicoddy, who was the person hailed, j • as he returned to the garden. I “So, sir, it seems I’ve found you at I | last?” growled the stranger. "I be j lieve your name is Pilli—something or ! other?” j “ No, sir, it is not Pili-something or ! other—it's Pillicoddy—John coddy ?” “ Very well, sir; listen to me,” re ' turned the stranger, in a voice of thun jder. ‘She's here.” “ There is no neccessity, sir, for exer cising your organ in that manner,” said Mr. Pillicoddy, rather taken aback by the stranger’s peculiar style. > “ I repeat, she's here!” continued the stranger, very rapidly and fiercely.— j“You can’t deny it. Don’t speak;} | you have hot a word to say ; don’t in-; ! terrupt me! How did she come here ? When did she come here ? Why did she j corns here?” “Really, my dear sir, tne pronoun! »hr being applicable to the entire fe male sex, I must trouble you to clearly l define the particular she you mean by she.” ’“ My wife, sir!” yelled the stranger, louder than ever. “Your wife, sir?” echoed Pillicoddy, considerably staggered. “ Your wife, pooh, pooh! I beg to observe there’s nothing personal in my pooh, pooh ; therefore, as I said before, pooh, pooh, I know nothing of your wife; how should I? There's only one marrid fe ' male in this house, and she happens to j ’! be my wife.' “ Don’t trifle with me Pilli-whatov -ler it is.

It has never failed to turn the white liuir hack to the natural color, where the directions' have been strictly followed, and in nu • erous cases it has restored the hair upon heads that had been bald for years. It is not pretended that it will make the hair grow in ev ery case, but where it fails there is certainly no remedy.
