An Outraged Husband Pursuing tile
Object of Ids Vengeance.
On Wednesday last, Mr. Woodworth,
of Newport Kentucky, suspected an im
proper intimacy between his wife and
Mr. Piner, aHsSnkci , whom he has con
sidered one of his friends, so upon meet
ing Mr. Piner on Monmouth street, lie
he struck him a blow with his list. Ti
ller whipped out a revolver, iirqd four
unavailing shots at his assailant, drop
ped his hat,and ignominious!}- tied. Mr.
Woodworth maintained the field, and
carried off the hat as a trophy. On
Thursday the injured husband entered
suit against Mr. Piner for $25,000 dam
ages, and during the afternoon again
met Mr. Piner on Monmouth street,
near his bank, and being armed, he
drew his revolver for the purpose of
shooting, when Piner again ran, flying
up thestreet likcaqnarter horse Wood
worth followed as rapid as his infirm
state of health would permit, keeping
his revolver levelled at the fugitive,but
had not yet got near enough to the en
emy to make a dead shot, when he was
suddenly, brought to by the Sheriff, who
arrested him. He was subsequently
liberated. Meantime he swears double
vengeance against the violator of his
domestic hearth—pocket and pistol ven
geance. Mr. Woodworth is aged thirty
six years, and the youthful Lothario

THIRTY-FIFTH CWTURRSS.
Washington, Hay 19, 1858.
SENATK.
k large amount of uninteresting busi
ness was disposed of. An Executive
•communication was reoeived enclosing a
report of the Secretary of the Navy on
the subject of British aggression in the

however, one field where tb-_ corn-bug

The Yazoo Banner, of the ;Ath inst.,
says :
have just returned from -.a pleas
ant visit to Sunflower county. We were
happy to learn, while there, that tire
frost had not.materially injured-the cot
ton. We saw several large planters
who told ns they had good stands of
cotton hut thatitfce corn would be set
hack a little.
The Kosciusko Chronicle, of the filth
inst., says:
The fruit crop in Attala county was
never better. The heavy frosts we have
had lately seem to have been an advan
tage to it, causing the unhealthy por
;ion to drop off.

A FRENCH WILE STOItY.
“ Is she dead, then !”
“ Yes, madam,” replied a little gen
tlemen in brown coat and short breeches.
"And her will ?”
“ Is going to be opened here immedi
ately by her solicitor.”
"Shall we inherit anything?”
" It must he supposed so; we have
claims.”
" What is that miserably dressed
personage who intrudes herself here ?”
" Oil, she,” said the little man sneer
’ ing—“ she won’t have much in the will:
she is a sister to the deceased.”
" What, that Anne who wedded in
1812 of man of nothing—an officer.”
“Precisely so.”
"She must have no small amount of
impudence to present herself here, be
fore a respectable family.”
“The more so as Sister Egarie, of no
ble birth, had never forgiven her that
mesalliance."
Anue moved at this time across the
room in which the family of the deceas
; ed were assembled. She was pale ; her
line eyes were filled with tears, and her
face was furrowed by care witli preco
cious wrinkles.
“ What do you come here for !" said,
with great haughtiness, Madam de
Villeboys, the lady who, a moment be
fore, had been interrogating the little
man who inherited with her.
‘ Madam,” the poor lady replied, with
. humility, " I do not come here to claim
a part of what does not belong to me ;
1 I come solely to see M. Dubois, my poor
sister’s solicitor, to inquire if she bad .
spoken of me at her i.-iat hour.
“ What! do you think people busy i
■ themselves sbouc you?” arrogantly ok-.
• served Madame de Villeboys; “ thedis-1
grace of a great house —you who wed
ded a man of nothing, a soldier of Bona- j
parte's!”
"Madam, my husband, though a
i child of the people, was a brave soldier,
and, what is better, an honest man,”
observed Anne.
’ At this moment, a venerable person
[ age, the notary Dubois, made his ap
. pearanco.
“Cease,” he said, “ to reproach Anne
. with a union which her sister has for
! given her. Anne loved a generous,
. brave and good man, who had no other
crime to reproach himself with than
Ids poverty and the obscurity of his
[ name. Nevertheless, had he lived, if
, his family know him as I knew him, I,
i his old friend, Anne would boat this
time, lmppy and respected.”
, "But why is this woman here?”
“ Because it his her place to be here,”
, said the notary, gravely; "I, myself,
requested her to attend bore.”
I M. Dubois then proceeded to open the ’
.! will:
“ 1 being sound in mind and heart, ;
• I Egerie do Damfreming, retired as a
: j boarder in the convent of the Sisters of j
; the Sacred Heart of Jesus, dictate the j
•! following wishes as the expression ot I
, my formal desire and principal clause of j
. my testament.
, “After my decease there will lie found
, two hundred thousand francs in money
. at my notary’s, besides jewelry, clothes
. and furniture, as also a chateau wwrth
, i two hundred thousand francs.
| “In the convent where I have been
| residing, there will only be found my
! book, ‘ Henres des la Vierge,’ holy vol
c j ume, which remains as it was when I
t! took it with me at the time of the emi
r\ gration. I desire that these three ob
s jects be divided into three lots.
- “The first lot, the two hundred
i j thousand francs in money.
' j “ The second lot, the chateau, furni
: i ture, and jewels.
"The third lot, my book, ‘Henres d«
' la Vierge.’
" I have pardoned my sister Anne the
i grief which she has caused to us, and I
> would have comforted her in her sor
s rows if I had known sooner of her re
, turn to France. 1 comprise her in ruy
- will.
“ Madam de Villeboys, my much be
) loved cousin shall have the first ctwice.
s "M. Vantry, my brother-in-law,shall
1 have the the second choice.
5 “ Anne will take the remaining lot.”
r “Ah! ah!" said Vatry, “sis tec Egerie
- was a good one—that is rather clever
- on her part!”
“ Anne will have only the prayer
book 1” exclaimed Madam de Villeboys,
laughing; aloud. The notary ’interrup
ted her jocularity.
“ Madam,” he said, “ wlsir.h lot do
you choose ?”
2 “The two hundred thousand francs
1 i in money.”
1 “Ha- o you quite made cpyour mind?”
3 “ Perfectly so.”
3 The man of law, addressing himself
then to the real feeling Os the lady,
' said ; “ Madam you are rich, and Anno
’ ; has nothing. Could you not leave her
tliis let, and take the bool: of prayers,
. w.bio! the eccentricity of "be deceased
1 ; has placed on a par with the other lots."
3 1 “ You must be joking, M. Dubois!”
• exclaimed Madam de Villeboys; “you
■; must really be very dull not to see the
I intention of Sister Egerie. in all this. —
1 Our .honored cousin foresaw full well
3 that her book of prayers would fall to
: the lot of Anne, who I Sad the last
1 'choice.”
“Afid what do you-conclude from
s ; that!” inquired the notary.
3 ; “Iconclude that she meant to inti
-3 mate to her sister that repentance and
‘ , prayer were the only help that she had
' j to expect in this world.”
As-mi e finished these words, Madam
|de Villeboys made definite selection of
the ready money for her-chare. Mon
sieur '—try, as may be easily imagined,
) selected the chateau, furniture andjew
' els, as his lot.
“ Monsieur Vatry,” tad Mr. Dubois
■ to that gentleman, “ even suppose it
■ had bean, the intention of the deceased
3 to punish, her sister, it would he noble
> on your pa t, millonaire as yon are to
' giv-: up at-1 east a portion of.your share
to Anne win wants it so much.”
i “ Thanks.for your kind advice, dear
sir,” replied Vatry : “ the mansion is
" situated on :be very confines of my
i woods, and suits me admirably, all the
3 j more s® that it is ready furnished. As
' to the jewels of Sister Egcrk, they arp
‘ reminisoences-whioh one ought never
' to'part with.”
" Since it is co,” said the notary,
“my poor Madam Anne, here is the j
1 prayer-book that remains to you."
. Anne, attended by her son, a hand- j
, some boy with blue eyes, took hei cis
. ter’s old prayer book, and making fcsr j
. son kiss it after her she said :
“ Hector, kiss this book, which be
longed to your poor anut, who is dead, ;i
but who would have loved you well had
she known you. When you have learn
-1 ed to read you will pray to Heaven to !
make you wise and good as your father
| was, and happier than your unfcrtun-,
, ate mother.”
The eyes of those who were present
were filled with tears, notwithstanding i
i their efforts to preserve an appearance
of indifference.
j The child embraced the old book
with boyish fervor, and opening it after
ward—
“o! mamma,” hesaid, “what pret
ty pictures !”
“ Indeed !” said the mother, happy
in the gladness of her hoy.
“ Yes. The good Virgin, iu a red
dress, holding the infant Jesus in her
arms. But why, mamma, has silk pa
per been put upon the pictures?”
“ So that they might not he injured,
my dear.”
“ But, mamma, why are there ten
silk papers to each engraving ?”
Tile mother looked, ami uttering a
sudden shriek, she fell into the arms of
M. Dubois, the notary, who, addressing
those present said :
“ Leave her alone.it won’t he much;
people don’t die of these shocks. As
for you, little one,” addressing Hector,
“ give me that prayer book ; you will
tear the engravings.”
The inheritors withdrew, making vari
• ouse onjectnres as to the cause of An
ne's sudden illness, and the interest the,
notary took inker. A month afterward!
they met Anne and her son, exceeding- j
ly well, yet not extravagantly dressed,
taking an airing in a two horse chariot.
This led them to make inquiries and I
they ascertained that Madam Anne had
recently purchased a hotel for one him
dred and eighty thousand francs, and
that she was giving a first rate educa-1
tion to her son. The news came like a
•jthunder bolt upon them. Madam de
; Villeboys and M. de Vatry hastened to;
| call upon the notary to ark for explana
tions. ’i lie good Dubois was working
I at his desk.
j “ Perhaps we are disturbing you !”
said the airold lady.
; “No matter. I was in the act of set-,
I tiing a purchase In the Statu f or
Madam Anne.”
“What!” exclaimed Vatry, “after;
purchasing house and equipages, she;
lias still money to invest.”
“ Undoubted so.”
“ But where did the money conic
from ?”
“ What! did yci not see ?”
“When!”
“ When she shrieked upon seeing
• what the prayer book contained which I
; i she inherited.”
; “We observed nothing.”
j 11 Oh ! 1 thought that you saw it,” ;
j said the sarcastic notary. That prayer
i j book contained sixty engravings and
leach engraving was covered by ten
! notes of a thousand francs each.”
“ Good Heavens !” exclaimed Vatry,
! thunder struck.
} “If 1 had only known it ?” shouted
• I Madam de Villeboys.
| “ You had the choice,” added the nc
jtary, “and I myself urged you to takel
! the prayer book, but you refused.”
“ But who could expect to find a for- j
| tune in a breviary,”
j The two baffled old egotists with-;
drew, (heir hearts swollen and passion
ate with envy.
Madame Anne is still in Paris. If you;
pass by the Rue I-afitte on a fine Sum-j
i mer evening, you will see a charming
i picture on the first floor illuminated by j
the pale reflection of wax lights,
i A lady who had joined the two hands |
• of her fair child of six yours of age, in!
■ a prayer before an old book of 1 Henres j
! de la Vierge,’ and for which a ease in'
■ gold has been made.
“ Pray for me, child,” said the moth-;
er.
“And for who else,” inquired the
child.
“ For your father, your dear father, j
who perished without knowing you, j
without being able to love you.”
“ Must I pray to the saiut, my pat-i
i ron ?”
“Yes, my little friend; but do not!
• forget a saint who watches us from Hea-!
ven, and who smiles upon us from above!

" What is name of that saint, mam-j
■ ma, dear ?”
The mother, then watering the fair
l child's head with her tears, answered :
“ Her name is—Sister Egerie.”

THERE’S NOTHING LOST.
There’s nothing lost. The tiniest flower
That grows within the darkest vale.
Though lost to view, has still the power
The r r -tt perfume to exhale ;
That perfume, born on zephyr’s wings,
Ma visit some lone, sick one’s bed,
And, like the balm a flection brings,
’Twill sc»tt< r gladness round her head.
There’s nothing lost. The drop of dew
That trembles in the rosebud's breast.
Will seek its home of ether blue.
And fall again as pure and blest.
Perchance to rev 1 in the spray,
Or moisten the dry, parching sod,
Or mingle in the fountain spray,
Or sparkle in the bow of God!
There's nothing lost. The seed that’s cast
tty careless hands upon the ground,
Wih yi.-t .uke root, and may at last
A green and glorious tree be found ;
Beneath its shade, some pilgrim may
Seek shelter from the heat of noon,
While in its boughs the breezes play,
And song-birds sing their sweetest tune.
There’s nothing lost. The slightest tone
Or whisper irom a loved one’s voice,
May meet a heart of hardest stone,
And make the saddened heart rejoice.
And then, again, the careless word
Our thoughtless lips too often speak,
May touch a heart already stirred,
And cause that troubled heart to break.
There’s nothing lost. The faintest strain
Os breathing from some dear ono’s lute,
la memory’s dream may come again,
Tho’ every mournful string he mute.
The music of some happier hour—
The harp that swells with love’s own words
ay thrill the soul with deepest power,
When stil! the hand that swept its chords.

has lost the power of duly converting food into a!
life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single!
course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastrin j
fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude
nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
the sufferer, while his digestive organization was 1
paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the!
wholesome revolution created in the system, the I
basis of activity, strength and health.
The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the
•v '.!e. physical agony of Neuralgia. Tic-.ioloreux
or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter
rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with
paralysis, fborne down and dispirited by that
terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of
nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
or disability arising from the unnatural condition
of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
ery member with the source of sensation, mo
tion and thought—derives immediate benefit
from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms,
invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous
organization.
females who have tried it are unanimous iD
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
woman has ever received from the hards of
medical men.
Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im
mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite.
While it renews the strength of the digestive
powers it creates a desire for the solid material
which is to be subjected lo their action. As an
appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia.
If long life and the vigor necessary to its en
joyment arc desirable, this medicine is indeed of
preciou- worth
Its beneficial effect- are not c- nfined to either j
sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing i
wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn l
man of business, the victim of nervous depres- i
sion. the individual suffering from general de i
biiity or from the weakness of a single organ j
will all find immediate and permanent relief from j
the use of this incomparable renovator. To|
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it I
will proven complete and unfailing safe-guard i
against that terrible malady. There are many;
perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu- j
tion that they think themselves beyond thercach
■of medicine. Let not even those despair. The!

r t*r Oxygenated Hitters,
L ’ A SURE CURE FOR DYSPEPSIA —Tlio history
e of this icraarkable medicine, and its astonishing
success in ■obstinate cases of Dyspepsia, Astfnma,
; and General Debility of the System, places it
u among the most wonderful discoveries in medi
cal science, and has given it a reputation far be
yond any remedy known for these complaints,
in all their various forms. •
r The Oxygenated Hillers contain nothing which
can intoxicate ; and the medicine has no simi
larity whatever to the various alcoholic mix
tures disguised as •‘Bitters,” being purely a
medicinal compound, in which are combined the
most valuable remedial agents, and a peculiar
oxygenated property, hitherto unknown, but
highly efficacious in all complaints arising from ;
weakness and derangement, or prostration of
the stomach and system generally. It is a mild
and agreeable lonic, removing all disagreeable
symptoms, and assisting nature in her efforts to
restore th- impaired powers of the system.

B*T Coloring Fluids for the
Hair are Dangerous.—Prof. Wood's Hair
t Tonic restores the color, not by the nitrate of
silver process, but by a restoration of the,
healthy functions upon which the
. natural color of the hair and its
loss, its life, and consequently its original j
beauty depended. Prof. Wood, at tho age of
, thirty -seven years, was as grey as a man of
• eighty, and his hair was dry. thin and dead
Now he has not a single grey lock upon his
crown, nor is his hair thin or dry, but soft, pli
able and moist as that of a child of five years.
j This preparation acts upon the roots, for after j
! an application that portion of the hair nearest
the scalp is found restored to the original color, j
whatever it was, while the ends ot the hair are |
gray. Try Wood’s Hair Tonic, and do not ap-;
ply any other till after you have this. With
this resolution will never have occasion to use a I
hair dye.
