A C'Hjr Pork. Among the late proceedings we notice with much pleasure a movement to en close our beautiful common as a City Park. Too little attention has been paid to the preservation of “breathing 1 places” in all our cities, and the result is that our towns very soon become “pent up Uticas,” unpleasant and un- • healthy, for want of some popular place j of recreation and exercise, where a morning walk or an evening promenade may he indulged tree from the sun and dust and din of the city thoroughfares, and where the children may indulge j their sports, without danger to them-! selves or annoyance to others. We are “in” for the enclosure of the common. A Sleepy Xorvnl. An individual whom we shall desi.g nate as Septimus Morpheus, overcome j by “tired nature’s sweet restorer, balmy sleep,” a few nights since, wrapped himself up in the chilly night air and laid himself down upon a side-walk in Broad street to take his rest. He might have exclaimed with Buhxs— “Blow, blow, ye winds, wi h heavier gust, And freeze, lliou bitter, luting fn st!” for he seemed to heed it not, “O, ye ! who, sunk in beds of down, Feel not a want but what yourselves create, Thinks for a moment, on his \tretchcd late,’' if Philanthropos had not come that way, and striking Septimus on the shoulder, waked him up. "Eh, friend ! wake up ; who art tliou, and what is thy name?” Septimus “started up like one from sleep,” and throwing himself into a highly tragic attitude, exclaimed : “My name is Norval! and lean lick the feller what waked me up, by jingo ?” But Philanthropos had done his duty, and went his way. CiirioiiM Historical Fact. The wife of the celebrate Lord Clavcn • don, the author of the History of the Rebellion, was a Welsh pot-girl, who, being extremely poor in her own conn try, journeyed to London to better her for tune, and became a servant to a brewer. While she was in this humble capacity, the wife of her master died, and hap pening to fix his affections on her, she became his wife. Himself dying soon after, left her heir to his property, which is said to have amounted to between 120,000 and £BO,OOO. Amongst those who frequented the tap at the brewery was a Mr. Hyde, then a poor barrister, who conceived the project of forming a matrimonial alliance with her He suc ceeded, and soon led the brewer 8 widow to the altar. Mr. Hyde being endowed with great talent, and now at the com mand of a large fortune, quickly rose in bis profession, becoming head of the Chancery Dench, and was a', to wards the Hyde, Earl of Clarendon. The eldest daughter, the offspring of this union, won the heart of James, Duke of York, and was married to him. Charles 11 sent immediately for his brother, and having first plied him with some very sharp raillery on the subject, finished ly saying : James, as you have brevvn. so you must drink,” and forthwith com manded thu' the marriage should he le gally rati lien and promulgated. Upon the death of Charles, James II mounted tfcg throne, but a premature death frus ti nted this eir, iableconsummation in the person of his amiable duchess. Hei (laughte s, however, were Mary, the wife of WiVuun 11. and Queen Anne, both gra* a children of the ci decant pot-girl iioru Wales, and wearing in succession the crown of England. Preserving Newspapers. In England three copies of each news pel* printed, signed by the publisher, must be regularly transmitted to the stamp office, which pays full price for them. After the expiration of a year, a complete file of every journal is trans mitted to the British Museum, where they are bound in volumes, and pre served for reference. Alluding to this fact, a cotemporary suggests that it would be un excellent thing if some ac tion similar was taken in this country. Would not a few hundred dollars, ap propriated -by the government for a eopy of each publication issued within its borders, and an arrangement bv which each county should keep, for re ference, files of the papers published in it, be of great service to this country ; — Appointment* by tUe President. lift and with the advice consent of (he Senate. —Collectvr*of Customs.— William ss.

Private letters from the American fleet in the Chinese waters, give a some- j what different version of Judge Reed's . correspondence with Gov. Yeh, from that published by the London journals. Mr. Heed, it seems, sent a communica-: ;tion to the Governor of Canton, in! t ; which.he informed him of the objects j of his mission, and requested an inter ’ view within the city. The reply of • Yeh was that he would receive the : American minister Reed without the ; walls, as there was no instance on re cord of the reception of a foreign envoy ! I within the city. Mr. Reed, moreover, . had, in conformity with his instructions, tendered through the Governor of Can ton the mediation of the United States Government for the pending difficulties with the British, 'ibis was tendered , before the ultimation of Lord Elgin had. , been sent to the Governor. The offer I j was not noticed, and no interview had '; occurred between Mr. Reed and the Im-I perial Government. It is stated, that, in a dispatch from i Yeh, which the British had intercepted,! he spoke very contemptuously of the; ; American offer of mediation. Mr. Reed has also had a correspon dence with Lord Elgin, upon the sub ject of the insti actions of our Govern ment, and the position which Mr. Reed I was to take in regard to the war. Lord Elgin expresses much disappointment and chagrin at the determination of the . United States to keep aloof from the I conflict, or from any course which would tend to coerce the Chinese Gov ernment into a change of their policy to wanls the commercial and Christian ! world. —Jv r . Y. Express. ».«► - . Thieves’ Implements. An account appeared in the London 1 papers some months ago of a very com* ,' p’.etc instrument found in the posses ! sion of a thief in the metropolis for boring holes into safes Since that • ■ time a much more complete instrument j of the kind has been found in the pos session of a returned convict at Man i Chester. The instrument found in Lon -1 don could simply drill a small hole through the iron door of a safe; that • 1 seized in Manchester cuts out a piece of , ; iron at one operation through which a man’s hand may lie inserted. The in , vention and workmanship are such as| might have been turned out only at onej of our first rate machine shops. The instrument has been tried by Messrs. | Chubb : the iron safe makers, who found j that it would cut a piece out of a quar ter-inch iron door in four hundred rev-j ’ ulutions of the lever by which it is l ’ worked, or in an hour ; and it had cut! out a piece from a plate half an inch in thickness without being in the least in ’ jnred or rendered inefficient for further use. A singular fact in the case is, that in the thief’s valise, in which the lat -1 ter instrument was found, was also dis -1 covered a cogwheel belonging to the in -1 strumeut seized in London, aqd con " netting the person having the one ma ■ i chine with the owner of the other. The ' j person in whose possession the machine 1 was found in Manchester escaped pun .: ishment because he was in a dwelling ; house with it when taken ; had he been | taken with it in the streets he could i , have been reached by the law.

Mr Doolittle, of Wisconsin, made a speech in reply to Mr. Hammond, of South Carolina, and in opposition to the Lecompton Constitution. ■ Mr. Foster of Connecticut, followed. The Senate then went into Executive 1 session. • HOUSE. Mr. Taylor, of Louisiana, introduced 1 a resolution inquiring into the facts at tending the seismic of the bai k Adriatic s by the French government. It contem -1 plates redress to the owners of the bark and the prevention of similar proceed ings hereafter The Printing Deficiency Bill was ‘ then buken up and passed. This bill 1 appropriates 8340,000. 1 The House adjourned, after discussing the Consular Diplomatic and Kansas J bills. *.*».

Waggery. ; Some time ago, on the Sabbath day, we wended our way to one of our I churches, and instead of a sermon heard an address upon some missionary or other benevolent subject, the ad dress was concluded two brethren were sent round with the baskets for contri butions. Parson L who was one of the basket bearers taking the side upon which we sat. Immediately in our front and upon the next seat negligent ly reclined our friend Bill II , a gen tleman of infinite humor and full of dry Jokes. Parson L extended the basket and Bill slowly shook his head. “ Come, William, give us something,” said the Parson. Can’t do it,” replied Bill. “ Why not ? Is not the cause a good one?” “ Yes ; but I am not able to give any thing.” “ Poh! Poll! I know better, you must give a better reason than that.” “ Well, I owe too much money—l must be just before I am generous, you know.” “ But, William, you owe God a larger debt than you owe anyone else.” “ That’s true, parson, but then he aint a pushing me Idee the balance of my credi i tors. ’ * ' The parson’s face got into rather a curious'condition and he passed on. Painful Reti ibntlon, If True. The Newport Spectator says there is ; a young man in a town of Veimont, who j cannot speak 5 : to his father. Previous to his biith some difference arose be tween his mother and her husband, and | for a considerable time she refused to 1 ! speak to him. The difficulty was sub-1 sequently healed —the child was born and in due time began to talk—but when sitting with his father was inva • riably silent. It continued so till it ! was five years old, when the father, 1 Laving exhausted his powers of persuas ion, threatened it with punishment for its stubborness. When the punishment was inflicted, it elicited nothing but sighs and groans, which told but too plainly that the little sufferer was vain ly endeavoring to speak All who were present united in this opinion, that it was impossible for the child to speak lo his father-' and time proved their opinion to be cor ! rect. At a inaturer age its efforts to ’ converse with its parents could only | produce bitter sighs and groans. «•» Nebraska is our largest Territory.
