of imports since then, and the con-

‘ I can do it in two or three hours, and it
will cost forty dollars.’
* Do it.’
Within the given time the diamonds were
substituted, and Mr. A returned to Har-
olem. On his arrival he found the two broth
ers and several New York bloods assembled,
lie was greeted with alow whistle, and sundry
and divers gyrations of the fingers were per
formed by tho gentlemen present.
‘How about the ring V asked John.
‘A very pretty ring,’ said Mr. A , ‘ and
a great bargain.’
4 A great bargain."
'Yes, the stones arc diamonds.’
‘ Diamonds!’
‘Yes.’
* I’ll bet you & hundred dollars of it.’
‘You know, perhaps V
‘No, but I don’t believe them to be diamonds
and I’ll bet a hundred dollars of it!’
1 Done!
‘ Done!
The bet was taken by Mr. A on the one
part and by the two brothers on the other.
How shall we decide?’ asked the two broth
ers.
•We’ll leave it to any jeweler in New York,
replied Mr. A .
The party immediately set off for the city.
On arriving at the jeweler’s the stones were
pronounced diamonds. The brothers were
not satisfied—they wished to go to another
jeweler. It was agreed.
‘ Are these diamonds ?’ asked John at the
next store.
‘I think they are, hut I cannot tell witbont
filing them.’
* Ob,’ said John, ‘you must ask that gentle
man : he is proprietor.
Mr. A gave a ready consent.
‘Smash it to pieces, by Jove!’ said John
The ring was filed.
‘First water diamonds, said the jeweler.
^ The mortification of the brothers was great.
Not so much at the loss of their wager, but at
the fact of their parting with a diamond ring
on such cheap terms.
When the money was paid, Mr. A told
the brothers how he had turned the table upon
them, and tbeir mortification was none the less
at finding that the doers had been done.
A witness in a liquor case recently gave the fol.
lowing testimony: “Sal soda is ice and water, and

From Liberia.
We learn from the Baltimore Sun that the
colonization ship, “Caroline Stephens,” which
left Hampton Hoads on the 12tn of November
last, fell in with the brig Hannah, from Mon
rovia, bound to Sierra Leone, she not having
found a market for her cargo in Monrovia.—
No produce of any kind to be obtained, and
no demand for provisions, and but little for
goods for the native trade. This is rather bad

.. of Cuba is excellent. Its situation,
j;v of the toil, and the short distance—
than thirty miles—from any points in

rial prosperity; and, if the many in-
drinking bad water, which is almost universally the
causa of them, it operates as a sure preventive.
The distressing effect upon the stomach, bowels
and biadder, of traveler!, or new residents, and al
persons unaccustomed to them, produced by the wa

Ohio, -Mississippi, and Alabama, and from the large
quantity of decayed vegetable matter contained in

about in this Union, for some half a dozen
men own nearly all the property in the conn

the thumb of one of them. He docs not ad
vance much in intellectuality, for even the on
ly newspaper published in tae Colony has
been stopped for want of patronage; and the
“Civilization” has not been extended to the
surrounding tribes, for the native Africans
laugh at them for their notions in reference to
the holding of slaves. These are some of the
facts tbat have “leaked out” in spite of the ef

Tlie Fracas in the House.
We find the following in the Washington
Globe’s report of the proceedings in the House
of Representatives on Monday ;
Mr. Keitt, by unanimous consent of the
House, made a personal explanation. He as
sumed all responsibility for the violation of the
dignity and decorum of the House on Satur
day morning. He, said, he was the aggressor,
and he alone. He expressed his profound re
gret for the occurrence.
“Personal collisions, especially in a legisla
tive body, were reprehensible, if possibly
avoidable. He’could not say whether or not
a blow was directed at him. He was not con
scious of having received one. He wished to
make to the House whatever reparation be
could, by this expression of his regret for what
bad occurred.
Mr. Grow said tbat he had been taught in
his vouth that fights among men were dis
graceful. Yet the right of self-defence was
dear to him. .
On Saturday morning, for the first time m
his life, he was engaged in a personal encoun
ter, He expressed his regret at it3 occur

Thoughts Suggested by the Early
DEATH OF MRS. SOPHIE L. HAUPT.
Death has been in our midst. His muffled tread »
Again ha* passed adown the beaten way
That leadeth from the chamber to the tomb.
Awed by his *olemn mien, the human soul
Forgets its coveting*, its jealousies
It* panting* after earthly vanities.
And contemplates the inevitable hour
When it must p*ss the gateway of the grave,
Hung with the funeral drapery, and stanu
Naked before the awibl bar of God.
Death hath been here, to gather from the earth
His daily feast of thousands, and depart,
Not with the benisons of stricken hearts.
But followed by their sigh*, and groans, and tears.
Alas! alas! such is the «te of map.
Hope, like* mirage, flatters to deceive;
And, its career ofjoy or sorrow passed.
Tho heart, like murmurs from the ocean shell,
Give* but the echo of its iormerlife. , . .
And she is gone, the young, the fair, the loved, _
The earthly idol of a mother'* heart,
To enter on her glorious destiny.
Yes! missioned offlerGod, she c*mo to earth •
To twine her chords of love about our hearts
And gently draw them with her back to heaven.
Mysterious are thy ways, oh God of love .
And could wo draw aside tho mystic veil
That shrouds thy purpose from us, we might see
llow every providence is blent with love.
Rocked with the keenest miseries of disease.
She boro her sufferings with Christian meekness,
And when the host of sorrow pressed her hard.
Like a crushed flower, her soul dispensed more richly
The holy graces which adorned her life.
They hid her in the shadow of the tomb,
Whose brief career thus fraught with purity,
Had gained so many hearts; ajealou* God
Reclaimed her angel spirit hence to heaven,
And yet, there came a murmur from the grave:
“She is not dead, but sleepeth,’’ and a prayer
That he to whom her flitting spirit said,
“Meet me in heaven,” may heed that gentle bidding
And consecrate his future year* to God,

Causes.
M R. J. M. KAHN, late of Paris and London, wish
ing to call the attention of the inhabitants of
this City, to an inspection of his large stock of
BRAZILIAN -PEBBLES,
Ground upon the most approved and unerring prin
ciples. Lamentable and irretrievable are the effects
caused by the use of improper spectacles, yet unfor
tunately tne natural anxiety to be properly snited,
instead of inducing the public to apply at once to
skilful and experienced Opticians, too often renders
them the unsuspecting dupes of pretenders.
The attention Mr. K. has paid to the nature and
ihysiology of tho eye, joined with the pr-.ctico ho
las had in this department of science, renders him
capable, upon examination and inspection of the eye,
to give the greatest assistance that art can accom
plish, in renovating and restoring the natural bright
ness of visionary sensation, which has been injured
by the usa of defective or improper Glasses, or by
ly known cause.
Mr. K. would also respectfully call the attention of
c public, to an inspection of his large assortment
of Stereoscopic Views. Among the latest inven
tions of Optica, there is nothing more instructive or
amusing than the
COSMORAMIC STEREOSCOPE.
The Stereoscope Views are impressions from Na
ture, representing tho finest Sceneries, Cities and
Monuments, which, viewed through the instrument,
show these objects in bold relief, actually as they are,
and those are the best models for Artists, give the
best idea of Foreign Countries and make the finest
parlor ornaments.
Mr. K. may be found in Wnthingion it lode,
rooms over S.-iulsbury’s Store for a few days on
ly, with a fine and large assortment of Pebble Spec
tacles, and Eye Glasses, set in Gold, Silver andtiteel
