Th* Prohibitionists made conaidarable gains in the Connecticut election, but not enough to produce any marked result up- on either of the two leading political par ties. ltzDiurn has not backed down from bis assertion that Sumner told him that floar was opposed to the Civil Rights bill. On the contrary he refers to a witness, who, bo says, will substantiate his assertion. A question of veracity is involved. The controversy does not appear to havo made many changes of votes. Tin Mississippi Legislature has at last adjourned. The prioipal acts passed by it were the following : Ttao establishment of a central board to equalize taxation the repoal of tbo Supply Lien law, and of the next November Funding aot; and a bill providing that no more liquoi censos shall bo granted nnloss upon the recommendation of a majority of residents over eighteen yoars of ago. Tot New York Tribune publishes a npooch which Senator Sumner preparod in March, 1871, whon bin disaffection with tho Administration began to be manifest, but which speech he was then dissuaded from delivering. Wo lmvo not road tho speech. Tho propriety of its publication at this time Is very questionable. Tho JJerald says of it, that “it discloses tho hurt pride, tho wounded vanity, tho shocked egotism of . tho Massachusetts Honator rather than his riper sonso A Republican writes from Knloigh to the Now York Time*, that his party in North Carolina will not hold a Stato Con vention for the nomination of candidates, booanso “tho question of civil rights wonld no doubt bo introduced, and any notion tho convention might take upon it would be hurtful at this time." lie adds that the local candidates of tho party will be allowed to make their fights upon iHtns that may ho peculiar to tho different conn ties. Tho Wilmington Journal says that the moaning of this is that in wliito ties tho Radical party will fake tho white line, and in colored counties they will take tho black linn. Tho hesitation of tho North Carolinn Republicans in taking a position upon this civil rights issue goes to confirm (ho opinion exprossod that it must injnrn the party, however decided. Mam. ADVictcs from Sari Domingo to tho 110th tilt, report that the Rritish Consul at Port-au-J’rince lmd visited Hsu Domingo with propositions for a treaty with tho Haytion Government. Among tho condi tions of tho treaty are said to bo the ces sion to Hayti of disputed frontier terri tory, and the iinnuliuout of (lie Samaria J3ay Convention with citi/.ons of tho Uni ted States. On tho acceptance of thoso conditions by tho Dominican Oovnrnniont, Hayti or Kuglnml was to lend it a consid erable sum, payable at eonvenicnco mid without iutoreat. This measure caused great anxiety throughout tho island, and tho Provisional Government had declared tho Baniann Bay Convention null and void. Tho special commission of the Samaiin Company protested agaiust this action as illegal and demanded arbitration. Mean time, tho company will ask protection of tho United States against any violonoo on the part of the Dominican authorities. rwK to roll it r.H i'ohukmti. will make a thick paste, and will unite, glass and metal as firmly as the otfginii) materials. You wiil find the latter a good recipe for cementing metal or glass-ware that may be broken. Worried.—because you and your wife have a little misunderstanding now and then, if must not make you wretched. Look upon it rather as the spice of mat- rimoney. The bishop of Durham, la menting the death of his wife, said to tho great Dr. Paley, “We have lived nine teen yoars together, Doctor, and never had two opinions about anything, what think you of that?" “I think, my lord," repliod Paley, “it must have been very WASHINGTON. flat.'

The plainest girls aro often sought for or the best wives, remember »'TI« beauty, that doth ofl make women proud ; Tie virtue, that doth mako thorn most ad mired ; 'Tla modesty, thatmakoa them eoera dlvino.” Henry writes to ask “which we thiuk the best of Dickons' novels ?" Ourohoioe is not tho popular one ; but we have, after roading ull his wonderful productions, oomo to tho conclusion that, for power, artistic arrangement, and dramatic situa tion, nothing that Dickens lias written will compare with “Tho Tale of Two Cities."
