| Marriage 01 the Princes, Royal ol Eng*
land.
We are authentically advised that the Princess
Koval of England, now in the sixteenth vear of
, »* betlirothed to Prince Frederick of
•j 1 l u . s3la . a )' oun g gentleman some nine vears her
, senior, and that they will be married probably in
: the course of the current year.
, It is only a few months since the intended bride
groom visited England, where it would seem he
wooed and found favor in the eyes of the Princess
that day reported how he was conducted to the
paiace by Prince Albert; how he was received in
the most gracious manner by the Queen ; and how !
““ was treated there for some days as a most fa
vored guest. A general impression was created at
ibe time that the vist was not an ordinary one of
ceremony ; and the idea soon got hold of the pub
li*- mind that Prince came as suitor to the Princess
Koval, or rather as visitor to his betrothed wife.
An outery was raised against the projected alli
ance, the Queen was lectured about the mode of
marrying her daughter, and the matter ended at
that time by the departure of the Prince from Bal
-111 oral. It is now apparent that the rov-al families
ot England and Prussia merely deferred the exe
cution ot their project until more pacific views be
* ante ascendant; and the renewal of this subject
at the present moment affords decided proof that
in the opinion of both families, the accomplish
ment of peace is certain, and the contemplated al
liance may have exerted no inconsiderable infiu
nce in securing (lie consent of England to the ad
mission of representatives from the Court as Prus
sia to the Paris Conferences.
Prince Frederick William Nicholas Charles of
Prussia was born on the Ist of October, 1831, and
is consequently-in his gfith year. Ho holds the
commission of Major, a !a suite, of the first regi- 1
ment of foot (Juards, and Chief and Colonel Pro
p/ Ufuire of other Regiments in the Prussian set
;me. He is the eldest son and heir of Frederick
William, Prince of Prussia, brother of the King,
and heir to the throne. Consequently, if the pro
jected marriage shall lake place, it may be antici
pated th:it tiie time is not far distant when the
throne of Prussia wiil be occupied by a Princess
of England.
Tite young lady whose hand is about to bt
made the pledge of renewed amity tvith Prussia.
“ Her Royal Highness Victoria Adelaide Maria
Louisa, Princess Royal of England," was born at
Buckingham Palace, on the “Ist of November,
18 to, and was baptised on the 16th of February
following. She was to be confirmed at Windsor
( ,’astle on Thursday, the “"th ult., and ai a prelimi- :
nary to her marriage, which is likely to follow in
cotm-ment order tiie proclamation of peace, and
swell the popular rejoicings which may be expect
ed to succeed that event. - AVt." Yori Pn*t.
Col. John W. Forney.
Tite following complimentary notice from the
Baltimore Sun, of the .'tit inst., expresses, in such
just terms, our owu ideas of tite late Clerk of the
National House of Representatives, that we copy
the article entire. It is a well merited tribute to
the worth of ail able and popular public officer.
\\ e copy it, not because it is necessary to say a
word in his praise, to the thousands who know
and delight to honor him itt this, his own native
Slate ; but to make more manifest the fact tluit i
die independent press from other States entertain
the same opinion of his ability and many noble
virtues :
Pent.tc Officers. W hil.i we have too often had
occasion to record tiie defalcation, malfeasance and 1
gligenee of public officers, and to comment tip
on the same with deserved severity, it is highly
gratifying to meet tvith a marked and significant
instance of the strictest integrity, sustained bv
cure, diligence and promptitude iti large fiduciary : <
trust. A paragraph in the Sun of Monday morn- t
ing, copied from the Washington Star, is' the in- t
- tance in point which engaged our attention. It I
■- loirs to Col. Forney, late clerk of the House of
Representatives, of whom it is said, that on the
Ist inst., within an hour after receiving an inform- | t
al report of adjustment from the office of the Firs*
Comptroller, he finally closed his accounts bv sint
ply transferring to the United States, the balance *
standing to his credit on the books of the Treastt- I
ry, there being nut '.me. rent of clijfevenee between ; t
itis statement as rendered and that of tite Depart
ment, though his disbursements covered transac
tions running through four years of official service, 1 *
and embraced the expenditure of over two millions |
of dollars. „
Col. Forney is generally known as a politician,
and has been a prominent mark for the arrows ot
party warfare. Indeed, he seems to have had not *
only his own share, but that of half a dozen of his
cotcniporaries. What lie may have deserved of all I
tlii-. w.* cannot tell, for we concern ourselves very ;
little about mere partisan sttife. But when we sec
a mail who lias filled a highly-responsible financial v
office, rendering up his accounts with accuracy w
and an exhibition of strict fidelity, and retiring s
gracefully from his position with the respect which p
itch a career of duty exacts :from all parties, we
cheerfully recognize in such an event an example
worthy ot' note, and entitled to the consideration
especially of youth, whether in public or private I :
life. ' ~
How many tiiere are at this day, who, having
fallen under tite force of temptation, having fully
contrasted with their condition that of a man re- t 1'
tiring from official position so honorably as Mr. ; d
Forney does. How freely would they take upon t(
themselves ten fold the measure of partisan abuse
tfi which Mi. I-'orney. has been exposed, could they e
-xchauge with him the sound and dignified repu
tation he bears with him from the sphere of office,
for tiie shattered ruin which the love of lucre Ims
unhappily .-mailed upon them. There is a useful t
losun in this iucidetual notice of Mr. Forney. It p
presents to the mind the impotency of party abuse,
when it is encountered by stern and inflexible in 8
tegritv. N

PuiLAtiELPiiiA, April 11. About midnight last L
night a tire broke out in the upper part of the Ar- T
tisan building, a vast establishment, five stories in
height, forming a hollow square in the rear ot
Uhestiiut and Fourth streets, occupied by various
branches of manufacture, which, together with (
nearly all tin- contents, was entirely destroyed. , t
Every part of the building was tenanted by work
shops, with valuable machinery driven by an
eighty horse power engine in the basement.
Mr. Duval, the well known Lithographer, occu- r
pied one lioor. Mis loss is estimated at 8100,000, ;

rod manufacturer ; Messrs. I’oi thers, blank book
manufacturers; Busk, cloth nstd satinet printer,
whose loss is $30,1X10 insured for > 1 *’,< I* h and J.
Camp, lithographer.
The total loss is not vet estimated, but it must
prove vet: heavy. The fire was so rapid that
scarcely anything was iuvcd except from the lower
floors.
The rear of the United States Hotel, on Cliesnut
street, adjoined the building, and its destruction
seemed inevitable. Tiie boarders took alarm and
fled for safety, but tiie damage to the building
from fire vvas very slight. It was, however, flood
ed with water.
Robert Pile and M. Hrov, printers, also occupied
tin* building, which was owned by Coroperthwaite,
and valued at Jfin.ooo, covered by insurance.
Messrs. Coioperiliwaitp A Co., booksellers, had
some *12,000 worth of stock among the various
printing and binding establishments, which was
mostlv insured. The aggregate of the loss is sup

leavum their favorite Newfoundland dog inside.
This morning on opening the store, the floor in the ,
back room was found to be on tire, and the dog a as
laboring with his forefeet and mouth trying to

room had been poured down the hole. The faith

stood sentinel and fought down the advancing
flames can only be conjectured —it must ha\ e been
several hours. His feet, legs and mouth were
badlv burned, and it is feared that he is seriously
injured internally by inhaling the hot air. He re
fuses food, and is apparently in much pain. We
trust the sagacious and faithful creature is not dan

J he low er grades ot cotton were reported to he
easier, while the better qualities remained un
changed in price. The market closed steady, and
the sales ol the two days, previous to the sailing
of the steamer were 15,000 bales.
Herman, Cox & Co.'s circular states that tiie
common grades of American cottons are freely of
fered, btti holders find it difficult to effect sales un
less at a further decline. For the better qualities
there is a lair demand at last weeks’ prices.
Richardson, Spun* a A Co. report the market
very dull for the lower grades, and although the
better qualities are freely offered, the quotations
were not lower than those reported on Saturday

Flirt Iter by the Cumbria.
The steamship America arrived at Liverpool on
the 28th and the Baltic on the 28th of March.
The deliberations in the Conference at Paris, on
the 27th, were said to have been of a very im
portant character, and it was confidently believed
that the treaty of peace had been signed. On the '
24th it was announced by the Emperor N apoleon
that he expected the final settlement to be com
pleted sooner than the 27th, ntid he had ordered
suitable demonstrations for tite occasion. I
There was a grand le Deurn ordered to celebrate
the birth of the Prince of Algiers,
Prussia's claims were earnestly resisted by
Lord Clarendon, which caused considerable de
lay. The views of Clarendon, however, pre
vailed, and his policy so arranged that the Allies'
were to sign one Protocol, and a second Protocol 1
should be drawn up and signed by the Allies and
Prussia jointly.
The London Times dislikes the demonstrations
in favor of peace, and intimates that the people of
England «ill be discontented with the terms ar
ranged at Paris.
The armistice between the contending powers , j
has not been positively prolonged, but telegraph
despatches have been forwarded to the Crimea not t
to renew hostilities without express orders to that
effect.

arvuv, with a sword last night. Several speeches
u-urj made on the occasion.
The Exposure.—A lesson may be drawn from
the proceedings of yesterday in the Senate <1 t
should be duly reflected on by honest people it the
North who have been led to with the
so-called Free State party in Kansas. A few davs
i ago General Cass presented to the Senate what
purported to be a petition or memorial from the
absquatulating mock State Legislature of Kansa-'
It was referred to the Territories Committee As
• it embraced the usual arguments of those’ who
- sympathize with the Abolition party of the Terri
, ton-, speciously set forth, of course an «>o or t
, 1 to superinduce the printing of a htro-e mim
her -.f extra copies of the pap.-r at the cost of the
national treasury, for circulation throughout the
North. Yesterdao this motion to print was d.■■
. baled in the most animated discussion of ihe ses
sion.., the course of the debate, it became so
manifest that the paper was a forgery, embracing
so gross a fraud, that the vote to commit if was re
considered by a vote of thirty veas to three nays
s political event unprecedented in the history'of
the legislation of either branch of ihe Congress of
the United States. So indignant were the Senate
that instead of either laying it on the table. ,»r
“chucking” it under the table, it was determined
to return it to the person who handed it to (ten
Cass for presentation to the Senate. Or, in other
I words, to kick it out of their chamber.

Religion among the Chinese.—Religion would
appear to he at a tow ebb among the Chinese. The
pries! sits down in front of an attar with a small
taper burning, and with a small matte; in one
hand a string of beads in the other, he begins to
hum or half sing a number of words; this appears I
to he all the worship they have, and their belief is
that the priest can and must do all the i.raviu<-
!:i this latter particular the Chinese are not atone
there is a large class of religion isfs in our onri
country who look to the ministers to do all the 1
praying.
A Happy FamilyWe clip the following from j
the New Haven Register :
“ A fanner says that he ‘found in an old hollow
stump, a few days since, five snakes, three sqnir- i
' rids, and a coon, driven to herd together by the :
winter.’ They had ‘fused’ to keep warm, just as
the opposition to the Democratic party are doing ■
:in Connecticut. It has also been‘a hard winter’!
for such politicians; and a common misery has dri
ven them all in the same burrow.’’
Washington, April So. -A despatch front the '
American minister at Naples mentions in terms of
high commendation the eminent services of Mi- I
renzo I). Aboindo and Capt. Gonzales, in res- i
cuing from shipwreck the American vessels Para
na and Golden Rule; and suggests that small -void j
medals with suitable devices' and inscription” be j
presented them, saying that such testimonials j
would tie valued by those oflicers beyond the deco- !
rations so commonly bestowed hrroyaltvand would I
not only strengthen the relations'and good un
derstanding between the two countries, hut what I
is of more importance, might by encouraging
similar acts prove the means of saving the fives
! and property of American citizens. The doc- j
ument was to-day transmitted to the House by the !
President.

l find that by putting it in ihe form
of a Soap it gives ii a decided advan ilnli
tage over any Balm, Salve, Liniment. :
m Oinimeut that can be made for the cure of dis- |
eases herein enumerated; it also prevents its vir- |
tues from being impaired by age or climate, and !
renders it very convenient for use.
H-s action is prompt, and at the same time harm
less. as it contains no mercurial or other prepara- |
turn injurious to the patient. This article, there
fore, being highly medicated, will cure Ulcers, j
Cuts, Flesh Wounds, Ring mid Tetter Worm, Piles, ;

preventing premature baldness. It is also one of ,
the best remedies for Burns or Scalds, and will
cure lac Fistula and Scratches in horses ; extract
tar, paint and grease from clothing, and is also a !
superior dentrifice to the teeth. For shaving soap, j
it forms a rich lather, softening the board, and
curing such sores as may be 011 ihe face.
Inthe cure of all the enumerated diseases, and i
particular old sorts, this oup has proved a balm '
indeed, by its wonderful healing powers.

H, G. FARRELL S
CELEBRATED ARABIAN LINIMENT j
IS well known to possess the most wonderfully |
healing, penetrating and stimulating properties, 1
and by its promptness in effecting cures,Which
previously had resisted ail other medicines, ad j
ministered to the most scientific physicians, has
placed it far beyond any similar remedy ever in j
traduced to the people of the United States. It !
- titnulaii'S the absorbents to increased action, and !
thus enables nature to throw off disease —it pent- 1
trotes to ihe h -ms, adding strength and activity to ;
the muscles -it is powerfully anodyne and thereby j
aHay* n< rears pimiaiion, producin'.r a ddigh{fidtp j
, s, ' satum to, .too. th ' irl.fi' frant. Owing '
to its remarkable anticeptic properties, il purifies |
and neutralizes that poisonous, corrosive principle
which rend"ts old ulcerous sores so difficult to heal; !
it therefore is peculiarly adapted to their speedy i
cure. This Liniment from its penetrating’ anil
m-cngthenuig qualities has been found to be a spe
--ilie* tor Paralysis *r Pals/-, Whitesweilings and
diseased joints, and in fact all complaints iuvol
\ ing the muscular system, it has cured eases of :
Rheumatism of twenty to thirty years' standing, ■
and affections of the Spine wherein the entire spi
nal column was so crooked and distorted, that tin
patient could not walk or stand without artificial
support. Numerous cases of Palsy have been 1
cured when the flesh had withered, leaving nothing j
but the dried skin and bone, and the limbs totally :
without use or feeling. For Children with Crovp j
it is of inestimable value, rubbed and bathed over
tlie throat and chest. If applied freely on the chest |
it never fails to give relief in the severe Couyhs at- ;
l* 'liny Con.tuinyti■ n. Asthma. 11ml Colds. It heals
wounds speedily—will ern e Scaldhead, Mange, etc.
Planters and Farmers will find it a most valuable
medicine to be applied to Horses mid Cattle for
Sprains, Bruises, Lameness, HI HI Joints, Sweeney,
Dry Shoulder, Wounds, Burns, Splint, Chafes or
Galls, Hardened Knots on the flesh, etc.
Lookout for Counterfeits!
The public arc cautioned against another coun
terfeit, which has lately made its appearance, called
\Y. li. Farrell's Arabian Liniment, the most dan
gerous of all the counterfeits, because his having
the name of Farrell, many will buy it in good
faith, without the knowledge that a counterfeit ex
ism, and they will perhaps only discover their error
when the spurious mixture has wrought its evil
effect s.
