For the benefit of those who fail to discern the motive of the caption of this piece, 1 will merely statc.it was written | especially for young girls, and I thought this the surest method to catch their eyes, anil exclude those of the gents, for you all know that anything written ] for the girls is read first and most eager ly by the other sex, and vice versa. Now, girls, what’s the use in making such an awful fuss because a man has deceived you? Havn’t all celebrated divines told you, “that man’s heart is | deceitful above all things ? And, hasn’t the prince of modern poets said, “Man’s | love is of man’s life, a thing apart.”— j And havn’t you read that, “were man | but constant, lie were perfect?” Ac.— And now, can’t you believe what every- j body, ancient and modern, Jew and Gentile, Christian and heathen, men and women, heroes, statesmen, sages, divines, poets, philosophers and a host of others, tell you ? It really is strange! Then he has proved false, has he?— What more could yon expect ? 1 am sure I should have been disappointed if he hadn’t! Do use as much as a tea spoonful of common sense. Be kind and sensible, anil not get so many ro mantic notions into your head, and then, if your true love does tell you just before you get to tlie altar, “that he won’t marry you,” do you suppose I'd ; rave, and tear ray hair, or sorrow, or go j into hysterics, or do any' other such marvelous things? No, indeed! noth But I’ll tell you what I would do—l'd jump up and down for joy, to think I ■ hail found him out before the slipping noose got ’round my neck. Hearts were not made to break, and if you can keep them from being jammed and bruised, , well and good. But few can oven do that long, and when it comes in. contact with such hard substance as a | deceitful man’s heart., if the collision is , very unexpected, it may prove danger- OUS, but bind it tightly with the icy • bains of indifference, and my word for it, it will not prove fatal. If I was only young again, wouldn’t I show you?— Bo you suppose I would trust a man that had deceived another, if I knew it, as some of you do ? If he lias broken one engagement, he may two, and I think with a certain old maid, that 1 -you should never believe a man before marriage, nor trust him afterwards.”— ; Suppose he should tell me he loved me better than any one else on the face of the earth, do you think I’d believe him ? Don’t he tell every girl the same thing ? and isn’t one’s lips as sweet to iiim as another’s. Then what does a man know about love, till he gets a good wife to teach him. Their hearts were not made like a woman’s. M. M. Who Po|S the Question 111 Cohul. A most extraordinary custom prevails among the Vizfecs, a most powerful tribe, occupying"an extensive district of Cabul among the mountains between Persia and India. The women choose their husbands and not the husbands their wives. If a woman be pleased with a man, she sends the drummer of the camp to pin a handkerchief to his cap with a pin which she used to fasten her hair. The mail is obliged to marry her if he can pay her price to her father. The Bell—A Sad Accident. We are pained to announce that Mr. William Reed—of the firm of Lacoste & Reed, Riggers, of this city -was killed this morning about 11 o’clock, while standing at the foot of the sheers or \ scaffolding erected in the Orphan House i yard for the purpose of raising the Alarm Hell to the cupola of said build ing. A piece of scantling fell from a 1 distance of about 40 feei above him,and striking upon his head, killed him al most instantly. The Bell itself had not beeu raised from the ground at the time of the accident. Mr. Reed was an esteemed man and a valuable citizen. He was between 35 and 40m years of ag e.—Charleston News, VHh inti. Good Rkply.— A line in one of Moore’s songs reads thus : “ Our shall be roses bespangled with dew." To which a sensible girl, according to Lan dor, replied : “’Twould give me the rhumatiz. and so it would you. ’ The Atlantic Telegraph It is said that this line of Telegraph. < which our Government was to subsidize to the extent of $70,000 per year, to as sist in laying down and to guaranty for all time—by a trick of British manage inent has been made the most effective weapon of war upon ourselves that 1 could be well conceived. The Company 1 were acting under a general charter. — Afterwards a special charter was obtain ed bv which the Company permits a a special director to be appointed by the Crown who shall have power : “Iu case he shall be of opinion that : any course proposed to be taken or act proposed to be done by the company, will, or may be prejudicial to, or incon sistent with, the due fulfilment of their contracts witli the Government, or the 1 regular, speedy, and impartial transmis sion of messages and signals for the public, or otherwise disadvantageous to the Government or the public, to veto the ta king of such course or the doing of such act, and to require that the matter shall be submitted to the Lords Commission ers of Her Majesty’s Treasury for their ' decision ; and the said Lords Com mis sioners shall thereupon decide whether 1 or not the objection of such ex-officio director was well founded, and wheth- j er or not such course shall be taken or act be done, and the decisions of the said Lords Commissioners thereupon shall be final and conclusive upon the company.” But if the directors are dissatisfied with tbej decision, the mat ter, within seven days after notice in j writing to the Commissioners, shall be | referred to two judges of her Majesty’s superior courts of common law, whose decision shall be final and binding. The election of all the directors of the com pany is also made subject to the appro val of the Lords Commissioners. “All messages and signals sent or for warded for transmission and delivery for j Her Majesty, or on Her Majesty’s ser- J vice, shall have priority over all other j messages whatsoever, and it shall be j 'imperative on the company, their offi- I cers and servants, to transmit and de j liver such messages and siguals accord ly, and to suspend the transmission if all or any messages until the said mes sages and signals shall first have been j transmitted. i “But should the United States Govern jment grant a subsidy equal in rate with that of Her Majesty’s Government, the messages of the said Government shall have equal priority, and be transmitted iand delivered in the order of time in which they are received. It is also pro i vided that after twenty-five years ‘the British Government may take absolute : possession of the line, fov the purpose lof preventing any communication being I made or signals given, save such as shall be directed and authorized by any jsuch Secretary of State,' (meaning any | | ‘of Her Majesty’s principal Secretaries j lof State, ) ‘and this possession may be J held from week to week indefinitely.” { | As Inith ends of the telegraph are to :be on British soil, the importance of the (reservation will probably arrest the at j |tention of Congress, which ought not to ; permit the United States any longer to lend itself to this one-sided arrange ment. - Richmond Dispatch. Ell7.nt>eth Bowleg* and Her Intended. An item of gossip has lately been going the rounds of the press, to the ef fect that Billy Bowlegs’ daughter is I soon to be married to a young New 1 Yorker, whom she met during her re | cent visit at New Orleans. As many interested persons are doubtless anx ious to know who the lucky individual | is, it may be a relief to them to know i that the gentleman alluded to is no less | a person than the New Orleans corres ! pendent cf “ Harper's Weekly” —though the facts of the case differ materially i from the current report. It appears (from the gentleman's j own statements) that he has been busi- j ly engaged in obtaining the history of I ! the Seminele chief, together with pho tographic likenesses of sundry mem bers of his.fainily, and sketches of their : adventures in the Crescent G:ty, for i publication is Harper—all of which he mccessfully accomplished. Os course his intercourse with the Bowlegs lami jly was necessarily somewhat intimate. |But let the gentleman explait. He jsays: 4 My object was attained; butfn the | mean while my zealous devotion to his Majesty of the Everglades, had exposed me to no little misapprehension on the part of my friends. This is a censorious world, very loth to believe in disinter ested attachments of any cort. A plau sible motive for proceedings was easily suggested. “ Billy, as I hav3 said, Is no beggar ly German prince, without money to I support his hereditary dignity. He has, moreover, a marriageble daughter, whom.it was currently reported, lit? was anxious to bestow upon some ‘ white brother* with the com for table* dowry of ten thousand dollars in bard cash, besides ‘ expectations’ for the future. It was reported that I was to he the hap py man. I was overwhelmed with con gratulations, pronounced a lucky fellow and forced to * stand ’ cocktails and ju leps without number. “ It is due to all parties to.say, that the matter should be properly represent ed. It is true, then, that King Billy did me the honor to propose an alliance between myself and his eldest daughter. I Betsey,’ he said, ‘ good squaw—nev jer married—you have her —come with i me—l make you great chief—next af ter me.’ I was forced to decline this ■ flattering offer for private reasons, which I am not at liberty to explain at present. : Suffice it to say that they were perfectly i satisfactory to His Majesty, who was graciously pleased to present me, in • token of iiis perfect consideration, with i his own royal autograph, a sac simile of , which I send you.” i - «#►- —-■ ■ Why there arc mote Pious Women than Men. The reason there are more pious wo men than men is, not because women I are weaker, or their passions less power ' ful, hut becausea feeling of dependence 1 is native in the female heart. It is be ; cause the pride of independence has lit tle or no place there. It is because the ! female mind lias to undergo compara- j ! tively a small revolution to become re i ’ ligious. One powerful barrier that I | stands before the path of every man in j ' his approach lo the valley of humilia ‘ tion, does not oppose the passage of the ; true woman. It is very rare that those ; who are denominated “strong-minded' women ” become religious. The pride 1 ) ,as personal independence prevents this. 1 So sweet and so natural a thing is! ’ piety among women, that men have! come to regard a woman without it as „ strange, if not unhealthy, and godless I men often select pious wives, because j ■j they see that piety softens, and deepens I and elevates every natural grace of per , son, and every accomplishment of mind. [From the Mobile Register.] Outrage on the Schoonrr General Tay lor nt Tampico. Our readers will remember a few weeks ago the accounts of a nnmber of . high handed outrages committed upon American vessels by that notorious ras cal, Garza, the chief of the foices be- f sieging Tampbo, and that our govern- \ merit despatched the U. S. steamer Ful- f ton, Lieut. Alray, commanding, to that J port to see to this business, and to pre- J tect our commerce and citizens there « from these unwarrantable and insolent j aggressions. The schooner Gen. Tay-i lor, belonging to this port, was one of ■ the vessels which suffered from the un- - paralled violence of the scoundrel Gar- 1 za. This vessel returned to Mobile the j day before yesterday, and we were call ed upon yesterday by the master and owner, who furnished us the protest and an affidavit of a passenger, and the ! former of whom also gave us a state- 1 * merit in addition, of the conduct of Lieut. Altny, of the Fulton, which we j publish, in order that the government at Washington and the country at large f* may know how our naval officers dis- j I charge the duty, which they are ap ! pointed and paid to perform, of protect - ' |mg our commerce and the rights of our citizens in foreign ports. Captain Frisk informs us, that when the Fulton arrived there he was in “du rance vile” and under detention by Gen. Garza, who would not suffer him to go up to the city of Tampico, and i that Lieut. Almy, instead of promptly i rescuing him from the guns of Garza, : | and inflicting condign punishment upon Garza for the outrage, desired him(Capt. Frisk) to leave at once and without, even getting a clearance! The captain answered, by asking the Lieutenant how! he could go to sea without his proper' papers, when he would be certainly sub-; jected to forfeiture of his vessel andj cargo. The Lieutenant wished him to; ■go any how- go any where—go to Mo- j j bile or to the d 1, so he, this lieuten ant of * Hwr gallant navy,” would be saved a.ny trouble with an infamous robber Mexican chief who had already perpetrated numerous of the most un heard of outrages upon American ves-| sels, and robbed and pillaged their car goes with the highest hand. Again, while this patriotic Lieutenant thus basely and cravenly forebore his proper ! duty in defending and protecting Cap-! tain Friskls vessel, and chastising the'; piratical depredator on our commerce , and while lie neglected the duty and ic-j variable custom also of sending his boat; i ashore for the American Consul to come; i aboard, we are informed by Capt. Frisk ! that he sent his boat for and received the scoundrel Garza onboard the Ful-1 i ton, with all the boners and ceremonies! due to the most distinguished and hon-: lorable foreign official! And this the; II man whose hands were reeking with the j ' violences upon and robbery of our law-j ! ful commerce and our citizens, and v/hoi at that very moment held several ofj .; our vessels in durance vile. | It absolutely sickens us to hear these! ,! accounts of the disgraceful and darana ,; ble conduct of the officers of our Navy,! . whose special mission is to protect our i j commerce, and who are maintained at ! the expense of the people of our ccun-: | try, as it seems, only to stand by and ' | see them trampled upon and outraged j 1 ! with impunity, where they have no ■ (other dependance for their protection ;! * j or, as is generally the case, to unite; ’ | with their enemies against them. If i ■ jour Government at Washington, doesn’t! ' icall this Lieut. Almv to account for; ■ | his conduct as here detailed, and if the! 1 facts stated shall be found, upon cxr.mi-j r nation, to be true, dismiss him at once » from the service, then it will deserve to! share in all the disgrace and odium of' 1 the affair. And this Lieut. Almy is one | !of the officers of “our .gallant Navy,”] ! sent, with his steamer Fulton, to cruise »I in the Gulf, and protect our commerce! ; from the British gunboats that have; ! been outraging cur vessels and our Bag!! i He'll never be any where?about, rest I assured, when the Styx or the Buzzard; ' I overhauls an American ship. ' | We talk about a war with Great Eri-i ! tain, with a Navy composed of such ! | creatures as this Almy and Paulding and 1 •jCbatard. and such like Miss Nancies | and liunkies, toadies and ools! Before ■ Iwe think of going to war, we had bet-! | ter think of reforming our Navy—j “; which is a tiling more needing reform s | than perhaps any other interest in our! I \ country—purge it of all the abundant' ! good fornothingness and flunkcyiSns 5 1 that it contains, and put into it men of '! the right grit and with the true Ameri ■l can national spirit ? ■ [Arm the Savannah News, Vith in*/.) Supreme Court. t i The Court delivered judgments in two : cases yesterday morning : 1 i John B. Whiluen vs. The Sta£e. John CB. Whilden was tried for Assault and ’ i Battery. Upon the trial the prosecutor , introduced a witness wLo testified t« the assault, aad stated that the parties had ’ |a difficulty about thirty minutes previ ously. Defendant’s counsel, in cross examination, asked the witness whether' , I prosecutor did not stab the defendant in the first difficulty. Prosecutor's coun sel objected, on the ground that it rela . ted to a separate and distinct transae- j ' tion, and the Court below sustainen the , objection. J The case being closed, the defend ant's counsel asked the Court to charge,! that if they believed the defendant ’ guilty of stabbing, there could be no ! conviction for assault and battery. The ’ Court refused so to charge, but charged that the Attorney General might waive 1 ; the felony, and the Jury might find ; defendant guilty of Assault and Bat , Itery. The Jury foetid the prisoner guilty. The Court sustained the decision of the Court below, holding that the Court did right in refusing to allow the ques-1 tion, and in charging the Jury.

M HARDWARE—-Our market is now v eil sup- M plied with every description of Hardware, and ;: every assortment of Iron. We will venture the • j assertion that there is no article in this line that ?| can be purchased in New York, but the bill can M be duplicated by w.r merchants, and at good H living profits.

It is more simple and easier kept in order than any other Machine. 2d. It makes a seam which will not rip or i ravel, though every third stitch is cut. 3d. It sews from two ordinary spools, and thus > ! all trouble of winding thread is avoided, while j : the same machine can be adapted at pleasure, i by a mere change of spool, to all varieties of work. 4th. The same machine runs silk, linen thread, 1 and common*ispool cotton with equal facility. sth. The seam is as elastic as the most elastic . fabric, so that it is free from all liability to break in washing, ironing, or otherwise. 6th.
