Feb 27—twHm&wtf, ! iVlLsccllamTms. Father Mahony and Fcantns O’Conner. Jesuit Maliony was fond of a grim joke anil 1 occasionally indulged in “philanthropic” sug gestions which were demoniac parodies on all the blankets-uud-bibles for-the-dittle-niggors-ns sociations of that day, In the course of some reformatory essays of his, touching on the sub ject of public cleanliness, lie advised the au thorities to commence by shaving tiie heads of all the female paupers in the Cork work house —a savage joke which Boyle, of the Freehold er, chose to regard as a matter of earnest, and assailed in a copy of verses, the most scorch ing and libellous that ever were directed against the reputation of a public man. Malmny, for getting his sacerdotal character, immediately dispatched a challenge to the editor, politely hinting at the necessity of satisfaction and the propriety of pistols. He waited patiently through the day for Boyle’s reply, hut in vain. Next morning, while the Holy Father was quietly digesting Ids breakfast, claret and a copy !of Anacreontic verses, the door of his room was sudenly opened, and a brawny giant, with a darning “foxy” head, deliberately entered. “Well, sir,” said Maliony, in answer to his , military stilulo ; “what the devil do you i want “Only a word with you, ’’ answered the visit or, with an oily placidity of manner which was irresistible. “I believe you sent a challenge to Mr. Boyle of the Freeholder V* “I did. Do you bring his reply C “No, sir; but I bring myself. You must know that my name is Feargus O’Connor, and that l have lately bought a share in the Free holder, and am interested in its reputation.” “ Merchle ! sir ; what is that to me ?” “V ery little, perhaps, but you may he inter ested in an editorial arrangement which has late ly taken place. Mr. Boyle continues to super intend the literary and political portion of the journal, and my duties are equally defined and explicit.” “Ah ! what are they ‘ ’ “To do up the lighting department with ac curacy and dispatch—at your service !” “ Voile retro Sal lumas /” cried the Priest, as lie made it hasty exit, having had his martial as pirations completely cooled for that day, at all events—though, to do the good man justice, we may remark, en passant, that he fought, bravely since on tho barricades of Milan, in 1818, in the cause of Italian nationality ! A Man with Eight Wives. William YVardle was indicted at the Oxford assizes for intermarrying with Sarah Martin, his former wife, Ellen Wormsßy, being still alive. This was one of the most extraordinary cases, perhaps, that ever came before a court of jus tice. The prisoner was a most determined Benedict, having married no less than eight wives in different parts of the country. At the time of his committal six of these had been dis covered—namely, Ellen Worinsley, whom he married at Manchester ; Sarah Martin, married at Walsall; Elizabeth Perkins, also married at Walsall; Matilda Graft, married at Birming ham ; Mary King, married in tho Isle of Man, and Hannah King, whom he married at Dymock, in Gloucestershire. Besides these, two others have been discovered since his committal—one of whom has herself taken another husband.— All the eight wives (except the last) were brought to Gloucester for the purpose of confronting their faithless Don Juan, and the trial was ex pected with tho deepest interest. The women were placed in a room by themselves, and formed quite a harem of every complexion, front the fair blonde to the dusky brunette; and so great was the curiqsit}’ of the public to see them, that the officer might have added something considerable to his emolument b3 r exhibiting them for money. However, the gossipping public were doomed to disappointment; on the prisoner being arraigned late Tuesday night he pleaded guilty. His Lordship deferred passing sentence for the present. — English Paper. London Chit Chat.—Feargus O’Connor, the ex-leader of tho Chartists, has been former ly pronounced “non compos mentis,” by a lu nacy commission. No hopes of his recovery are held out. Ho never has a lucid interval, but is quiet, easily managed, and plays cricket and whist very well. At one time his weekly journal, The Northern Star, had a circulation of 100,000. Hon. N. P. Tallniadge, formerly U. 8. Senator from New’ York, writes to the National Intelli gencer a letter expressing his firm belief in the ; spiritual rappings and other similar demonstra tions. He says he has had frequent communica tions from John C, Calhoun, Daniel Webster and Henry Clay, and that these communications are 1 all characteristic of the individuals, some of those from Mr. Calhoun being, “both in style and senti | ment, worthy of him in his palmiest days in the United States Senate.*’ Dr. Baker, the U. S. Consul at Genoa, during a recent visit to Egypt, procured the donation i of a valuable block of Egyptian granite, for the monument to Washington. It is taken troiu ; the ruins of an ancient Temple ot Alexandria, supposed to have been the Alexandrian Libra ; ry, and was brought over to Geuoeby the French line of steamers gratuitously, in honor to the memory of Washington. Anew harbor on the Pacific, south of Port Oxford and Rouge River, in Oregon, has been found to be feasible, and is called Paragon Bay, and a city is springing up there called Crescent City.
