The prominent symptoms of Consumption are: slight hacking cough, me tly pereeptible on rising in the morning or on going to bed; tickling inthe throat; sensible increase of the cough accompanied by a heavy, yellow mucus expectorations : haemoptysis or raising of blood, which is one of the worst sywptoms. as it indicates that tabe cles have already formed in the lungs: ptinin the chest or sides attended w th difficulty of breathing ; chills ranning upthe back and threggh the limbs ; hectie fever; night sweats; loss of appetite diarrhea, ete., etc. lam satisfied that consumption in its incipient stage ean te cured, but becomes morta by neglect, and hence any one suffer ng from leug dir > should lose No time in seeking the aid of thistreatment. 1 would therefore invite all who are suffering from the above described symptoms to try MEDICATED VAPOR, as the best remedy, It will certainly do no harm, and if you desire to regain health, } assure yon it is the only effectaal and rational treatment ever employed to relieve these deplorable maladies, % N.

Lane, the great leader of the free Stute men in Kansas, we find in the Pittsburgh Gazette, copied from the St. Louis Democrat. Lane’s eard is rather stringent on Denver ; Lawrence, March 16.—Since my return from-a northern tour, my attention has been called to a gubernatorial pronunciamento (said by the hoys te be no, 4060) dated *Lecompton, Feb 6th,” and signed by one “J. W. Denver, acting governor.” By President Pieree and his myrmidons, I was denounced as a traitor and indicted for high treason. They did not dare to test the truth of the charge ‘b an arrest or a trial, and finally admit‘ed my innecence and their idiocy by quashing the indictment. By Mr, Buchanan I have been charged asa rebel, anda “military leader of most turbulent and dangerous character.” That charge also has been answered. One J. W. Denver now steps forward and charges me with making ‘insidious attempts to renew the difliculties and troubles,” and with an intention or de sign of establishing a military dictatorship. By reference to the regulations and commissions of which he speaks? it will be found that “one J. H. Lane” signed them by order of the military board, and as president thereof. A full Vindication of the action of that board will be f und in its report of this date, to wLich I respectfully refer the people of Kansas. As to the charge of “turbulence,” I refer to the people of Doniphan, Geary Jity, Palermo, Wathena, Elmwood, White Cloud, and St. Joseph, and Orehave listened to my speeches delivered within the past three weeks, in all of which T urged the cultivation of fraternal relatiens. and hrotherly iutereourse. It is deemed a sufficient answer to the charge that I desire to establish a military dictatorship, th-t npon four different occasions T have! een invested with tie chiefcommand of the military forees of the people of Kansas. and that immediately after the emergency ceased which called i them into the field, that command was . voluntarily su rendered into their bands. The command I now hold was conferred upon me by the territorial legislature, without solicitation on my pant, . by a unanimons vote of both branches. That legislature has reserved the power to remove me at any time. The moment that the dark clouds which now obscure our horizon disappear, that moment will . my command be surrendered to the ple. The acts complained of in this inselent pronunciamento were of an official character, so signed and published. Its author has chosen to makea personal matter out of these official acts. With him rests the responsibility thereof. + * * a * eoOne J W. Denver, a mere executive officer, charged with the execution of a// the laws of this territory, has arrogantly usurped and ruthlessly trampled under foot the legislative department of the government of a free people, and in violation of his official oath and duty . secks to unite in his own person, and thus control the power of the sword and the purse of the people to crush out their libe: ties. Truth, justice and menhood require that the villain should be unmasked. I pronounce the charges he has preferred against me utterly untrue and caluminous, and his acts towards the people of Kansas perfidious and tvrannical, and I do arraign one “J. W. DENVER” serore THE COUNTRY, AND DO DENOUNCE AND BRAND HIM AS A COLUMINATOR, PERJURER AND TYRANT, To the people of Kansas I have this tosay:—One J. W. Denver, came to Kansas a_ professed duelist—his hands reeking with the untimely shed blood of his fellow man—having won from his friends the sobriquet of *Autcher,”’—a fit appointee of the o'igarchica’ administration which disgraces the nation ty its ermniual efforts to enslave a free people! For these political purposes he has sought an excuse for a difficulty with ine out of a public act, done in performance of my imperative duty, has fasteneda personal quarrel upon me. As a personal quarrel, it is private property You require rest and peace, and I respectfully demand that there may be no interference on the part of my friends. He bas assaulted me, not fo~ individual action, for IT hare never seen him, but for official action, and as a representative elect of that greatand noble party whom he and_ his masters have soaght toenslave; and in the spirit of that party, as an humble member of it, I hurl back his accusations, and bid him and his masters defiance. J. H. Lane. Tur New Orleans (La.) True Delta savs there isa movement going on in that city. having for its object the introduction of the custom of ladies carrying firearms, small pistols, such as are known as vest-pocket pistols, and which can be stowed, without ineumbranece, in the pocket of the fair shooter’s dress, in order to protect themselves from ruffian violence and insolence. Society must be in a sad state in New Orleans, if this statement is true. ADHEsIVRENESS is a large element of success. Genius has glue on its feet, and will take hold on a marble slab Out of a pine log, a Yankee will whittle a Judzeship, a seat in Congress, a mission te England. The first part of eceromy is todo your peculiar work; the second to do it by system —Evmerson. No one need expect to he original simply by being absurd. There isa eycle in nonsense which ever and anon brings back the delusions and errors of an earlier time. The follies of the present day are transcripts, unwittingly preduced, and with, of course, a few variations, of follies vhich existed a cen. tury ago.—Hugh Miller. Extensive RopBery OF JEWELS.— A robbery, which rivals the famous E}lesmore jewel plunder, and will even bear comparison with that just effeeted by Hanover, has just taken place in Paris; the victim is a Russian lady, the Countess I}linska, residing in the Rue Richepanse, 13. It appears that the Countess, whose husband oceupies the position of Senator at the Court of Russia, lately stopped at Lyons for a few days, when on her way to Paris, with her two daughters, from Switzerland and Italy. Atthe hotel at which she put up at Lyons, one of the porters was particularly active and obliging; and on the Countess’s departure she yielded to his solicitations, and received him into her service. He proved in Paris a very attentive person, and everything went well until a few evenings back, when the femme de chambre of the Countess came to announce to her mistress that a box of plate containing forks and other small articles had disappeared, and that there were no spoons for tea. Onan inquiry being instituted, it was ascertained that not only was the box gone, but likewise the servant brought from Lyons, and that with him had disappeared a mahogany case containing the Countess’s jewels. The plate was fortunately only electro, having been purchased merely to serve the tour, but the jewels were worth between 860,000f. and 900,000f. and had always been remarkable at the Court of St. Petersburg for their beauty. When the robbery was discovered, it was remembered that a few days before, other property of a certain value, though nothing in comparison with what has just been lost, had been taken from the apartment. A friend of the Countess, in passng through Paris, had remained two or three days on a visit with her, and having gone out to make _purchases, without taking the precaution of locking her trunks, found, on her return, that several dresses, a quantity of fine lace and some petty articles of jewelry, had been takeu. ‘The name of the thief is Henri Holls, a meau-tooking man of . nearly forty years of age, speaking Gerjman. French and English. A reward . has been offered fr his apprehension, but. hitherto, allthe re-earches of the police have proved fruitless. Why Cousins should not Marry.—In . In the Annual Report of the Superin. tendent of the Kentucky Institution for the Deaf and Dumb we find the followthe ing conclusive argument against marriage of cousins : From ten to twenty per cent of deaf mutes are the children of cousins. It is greatly to be regretted that the bill forbidding the marriage of first cousins did not pass the recent Legislature. These marriages are a violation of a law of nature, as is evinced by the afflictions vis jited in alinest every case upon their off. Spring, in deafness, blindness and idiotey, and ought to bea violation of human law also. The Commonwealth has the clear right to protect itself against these ill-starred matches, whose offspring it has to sustain too frequently for life. It may be heped that this important subject will not escape the action of our legislators many years longer. It is confidently believed that by forbidding marriages of this kind, and by proper attention and care of infants laboring under the diseases stated, the number of deaf mutes in the community might be diminished one-half in a generation. Political-—Stumpers in Ilinois.—According to the Chicago Times, the following distinguished gentlemen will be engaged duriug the present year in stumping the State of Illinois, in opposition to the administration party :— Gov Wise, of Virginia; Gov.

At sundown we reached Gaeta This place abounds in historical interest, ana ic was here that the Pope found refuge when he fled from the Republic in 1849. Among the legends of the place is one to the effect that he and the King of Naples, whe had come to visit him in his exile went on board of an American frigate. ‘The commander welcomed them in these terms: ‘Pope, how are you? King. how d’ye do?’ “Here, Lieutenant Comes, you speak French, parley vous with the Pope, while the King and . go down and have a drink. King, come on!” The Science of Murder.—Dr. Quincey wrote an essay on Murder as one of the Fine Arts, which was very well for England, but in Cincinnati a member of the City Council has promoted it to a science. He presented to that body an argument iu favor of appointing uuskilful physicians to the city and county jails, on the ground that poor doctors would kill their patients, and the community be gainers. Tue following laconic prayer was delivered in the lowa House of Representatives on March 10th, by the Rev. Mr. Shine: “Great God, bless the young and growing State of Iowa, her Senators and Representatives, her Governor and State officers!) Give us a sonnd currency, pure water, and undefiled religion, for God’s sake. Amen.” WHOLE NUMBER 39, Jupee Dooty anp THE LaANpLoRD. —Harper’s Magazine has a correspondent in Georgia who overflows in guod things. He gets off the following anecdote : Judge Dooly, an eminent jurist in Georgia forty years ago, wasa great wag as well asa great Judge—witty as well as wise. His gravity gave effect even to his jokes, and these were more frequent than his decisions. One of his faneies was to “take people . own” who were im the habit of exaggerating. The way he used np Austin Edwards, keeper of the hotel at Elberton, is a caution to all story-tellers, of whom Austin was the.prince. He always told the whole truth, and more. “It was material,” he said, “he liked uncommon things better than common ones—’twas a heap more amusin’, anyhow. One morning, at -breakfast, this long-bow landlord had-been relating one of his extraordinary yarns, and Judge Dooly being at the hotel, and listening to the story, sat in solemn silence until it was over, and then remarked that he had an awful dream in the night and was very much depressed this morning. The landlord was awake in a moment, and begged the Judge, if it would be no violence to his feelings, to eelate the dream, as all would like to hearit. The Judge still declined, as it might hurt the feelings of others. “Oh, do tell it, Judge—we must have it,”’ urged the landlord, and the company joining in, the Judge proceeded as if he were about to sentence a criminal to be hung : “Well, 1 dreamed last night two lawyers and myself had retired to a private room to divide among us a fee received from a hard case, which had been carried through with a mighty deal of lying on all hands. While we were settling the division, in steps the devil, wha, without any formalities, said he had come for us—we had told lies enough, and if he left us any longer we might repent, and su he’d lose us. We did our best to persuade him te let us off, but he was inexorable, till at last I ventured to ask if he would take a substitute. ‘Whom do you offer ?” he asked. “Austin Edwards,” I said, “keeper of the Elberton Hotel.” “Good! he'll do,” said he, “send him down. I'll take Aim for all three of you!” The table was in a roar, and the landlord was cured, for a time at least, of his habits of overdrawing. He passed away years since, and Judge Dooly is gone, too, sothereis no harm done in telling the story. A Russian Basy.—In the life of a Russian peasant there isa period anterior to all tunics, mantles, and even sheep skins, during which they lead a kind of mummy life, only unlike the Egyptian, it is the first instead of the last stage of their existence ; for the youngest children are always swaddled and rolled up tight in bandakes, so that they may be conveniently put away without risk of getting themselves into mischief or danger. On entering one of their houses, an enthusiastic trave'er thinks he has come upon some pagan tribe, having their idols aud penates, with the heads well carved out, and the rest of the body left in block. He looks curiously at ove laid up on a shelf, another hung to the wallon a peg, a third slung over one of the main beams of the roof, and rocked by the mother, who has the cord looped over her foot. “Why that is a child!’ cries the traveler with a feeling similar to that experienced on treading a toad which was supposed to be astone. “Why, what else should it be?’ answers the mother. Having learned so much in so short a time, the inquisitive traveler wishes tu inform him self about the habits of the creature ; but his curiosity being somewhat dampened by the extreme dirt of the little figure, he enquires of the parent when it is washed. ‘Washed !’’ shrieks the horrified mother, “washed ! what, wash a child! You would kill it.’ . Diseouraged alike from personal investigation of the subject, and from inquiry, he turns to the elder children. When freed from its bandages, the child’s education begins at once, and is wholly of a practical character. He—or she, for it is the same with both sexes—makes his first struggles in life by floundering in the sand or mud in front of the house, clad in a coarse, ragged shirt, aud nothing else. Being taught by stern experience to shun, if possible, the Charybdis of mud, he falls upon Scylla, in the shape of a lean, long-legged pig, which is always prowling about on the chance of something toeat. Looking upon an occasional tumble as one of the natural evils of life, and therefore bearing no malice against his heavy and sometimes inconvenient companion, he begins to imitate the pertinacious diligence with which that animal takes everything into his mouth, rejecting only what is absolutely impossible. JJaving so far finished his education as to distinguish between the evil and the good, in matters of the palate at least, he is promoted to the privilege of the family meals of black bread and “stchi,” or cabbage soup, and to the dignity of an old sheep skin. A Numerous Proceny.—Mr. Samuel Wright is a farmer who resides in Jefferson township, Washington Co., Pa.— He is a hale oid gentleman of over 80 years, and his good ladyis uearly of the same age. He made full time, and a full hand in the harvest fieid last year. Mr. and Mrs. Wiight are the parents of 18 ehildren, grandparents of 111, and great-grandparents of 45—mating an aggregate of 174 children. The old coupleare still enjoying excellent health, and are surrounded by their childrei and children’s children No money is better spent than what is laid out tor domestic satisfaction. A man is pleased that his wife is dressed as well as other people, and_ the wife is pleased that she isso dressed.—Johnson. Tae Rep Perricoat CoxrnvusiaLiy WuhiP-vP-arive.—We see that this new fashion, after all, turns out to be a piquant stimulus, used by Queen Victoria to reawaken the flagging take-noticeism and dormant conjugal susceptibility of Prince Albert. The history of its rise and progress at court, and consequent transplantation to the still more backward husbandry of America, is thus spicily given in the Boston Courter : “Every one knows that her Majesty Victoria indulges annuaily in a pleasant autumnal exeursion to her Castle of Balmoral, in Scotland. Itisa pretty enstom for a bevy of the fairest maidens to assemble on the estate and bid her weleome—arrayed, of course, in their pieturesque holiday attie. We have spoken of the art-sympathies of the gentle Albert. The effect of the looped petticoats, last year, on his sensitive soul was extraordinary. He recognized here a new principle of art before unknown to him, aud gave himself up to its study, until his watchful spouse, thinking that perhaps not art alone, but a little touch of nature might also combine thus to absorb him, resolved to afford him the opportunity of indulging his taste in the domestic circle. Tu short, adopted the scarlet petticoat herself, and no doubt gratified the Prinee beyond expression by this mark of disinterested devotedness “And the Queen carried the red petticoat to London with her; and Eugenia saw it and fell in love with it; and all the ladies of rank were seized with a violent scarlet fever; and Lady Gore Ousley transplanted the exotic to this country, causing it unexpectedly to bloom forth at Washington, to the delight and wonder of every one, including the administration and both Houses of Congress; and leaders in the female fashionable world at home have awakened to the practicability of creating & new sensation, and have boldly seeonded Lady Gore; and very soon tl e searlet skirt will cease to be an exotie, and will flourish here as freely as if ‘native and to the manner born.’” For the enlightenment of our readers, we copy from the same editorial of our Boston cotemporary a description of the original breaking out of the new epidemic scarletina : “The peasant maidens of parts of Ireland and Seotland have a holiday dress, an important particular of which isa crimson petticoat, of coarse texture, to be sure, but worn with grace, and neatly looped up at one side just sufficiently to reveal bright glimpses of snowy stoeking, but never a shadow of anything like garter, for such revelations, as every woman knows, bring into shockin conflict the poetic ideal with the blunt practical and material. Symptoms of the Chivalry.—The honorable Mr. W. Swith, of Virginia, anneunced on Saturday that he should make publi use of auy private conver. sation which any person might hold with him upon publie affairs, if he thot’ it conductive to the public welfare, unless it was expressly stated at the time that it was confidential. We suspect that this frank but slightly sneaking declaration will render Mr. W. Smith's acquaintances a little cautious in their private conversations with him upon polities. After this, he will probably hear nothing worth retailing. Some men find it impossible to be patriots except by becoming spies—N. Y. Times. Sale of Liamas.—The thirty-eight llamas imported into the city of New York last fall from South Ameriea were offered for sale at auction in the suburbs of that town on Saturday. When originally shipped there were seventy-two, bit some eighteen or twenty died at Panama, and eight or ten on shipboard, so that only forty-two reached New York alive. Since they weie landed four of the weakest have died. The auction was unsuccessful. At private sale afterwards three were disposed of to be sent to Australia. The cost of the adventure has been such as to fix the price asked far too high. Apt.—A young gentleman of a dozen summers—a pupil in one of the public schools—who is sadly adicted to playing truant, was severely flogged for a delirquency of this kind the other day. On the conclusion of his punishment, the teacher was greatly astonished and the school vastly amused, to hear him break out in a snatch which he had probably picked up during the recent revival at the M. E. Church : “Prone to wander—Lord I feel tt.” Governor Denver testified as follows before the legislative committee on the election frauds in Kansas: “I asked Calhoun, the next day after the count, how long he would continue to receive returns; he replied, until Congress shall act un the Lecompton Constitution.” The difference of understanding between a young lady and her admirer, was simply this: Byron Collar thought Crinoline took an interest in his welfare, while Crinoline knew she took an interest in his farewell. The above is the production of two authors. Santa Anna on his way to Mexieo.— Ex+President Santa Anna, accompanied by his family embarked on the 12th ult. at Carthagena, on board the British mail steamship Clyde, for St. Thomas ard Havana. He was, doubtless, en route for Mexico. Breyonp the river of time, walk the brave men and the beautiful women of our ancestry, grouped in twilight upon the shore. Distance smooths awny defects, and, with gentle darkness, rougds every form into grace. It steals the harshness from their speech, and every word becomes a song.—G. W. Curtis, ~

The prominent symptoms of Consumption are: slight hacking cough, me tly pereeptible on rising in the morning or on going to bed; tickling inthe throat; sensible increase of the cough accompanied by a heavy, yellow mucus expectorations : haemoptysis or raising of blood, which is one of the worst sywptoms. as it indicates that tabe cles have already formed in the lungs: ptinin the chest or sides attended w th difficulty of breathing ; chills ranning upthe back and threggh the limbs ; hectie fever; night sweats; loss of appetite diarrhea, ete., etc. lam satisfied that consumption in its incipient stage ean te cured, but becomes morta by neglect, and hence any one suffer ng from leug dir > should lose No time in seeking the aid of thistreatment. 1 would therefore invite all who are suffering from the above described symptoms to try MEDICATED VAPOR, as the best remedy, It will certainly do no harm, and if you desire to regain health, } assure yon it is the only effectaal and rational treatment ever employed to relieve these deplorable maladies, % N.

Lane, the great leader of the free Stute men in Kansas, we find in the Pittsburgh Gazette, copied from the St. Louis Democrat. Lane’s eard is rather stringent on Denver ; Lawrence, March 16.—Since my return from-a northern tour, my attention has been called to a gubernatorial pronunciamento (said by the hoys te be no, 4060) dated *Lecompton, Feb 6th,” and signed by one “J. W. Denver, acting governor.” By President Pieree and his myrmidons, I was denounced as a traitor and indicted for high treason. They did not dare to test the truth of the charge ‘b an arrest or a trial, and finally admit‘ed my innecence and their idiocy by quashing the indictment. By Mr, Buchanan I have been charged asa rebel, anda “military leader of most turbulent and dangerous character.” That charge also has been answered. One J. W. Denver now steps forward and charges me with making ‘insidious attempts to renew the difliculties and troubles,” and with an intention or de sign of establishing a military dictatorship. By reference to the regulations and commissions of which he speaks? it will be found that “one J. H. Lane” signed them by order of the military board, and as president thereof. A full Vindication of the action of that board will be f und in its report of this date, to wLich I respectfully refer the people of Kansas. As to the charge of “turbulence,” I refer to the people of Doniphan, Geary Jity, Palermo, Wathena, Elmwood, White Cloud, and St. Joseph, and Orehave listened to my speeches delivered within the past three weeks, in all of which T urged the cultivation of fraternal relatiens. and hrotherly iutereourse. It is deemed a sufficient answer to the charge that I desire to establish a military dictatorship, th-t npon four different occasions T have! een invested with tie chiefcommand of the military forees of the people of Kansas. and that immediately after the emergency ceased which called i them into the field, that command was . voluntarily su rendered into their bands. The command I now hold was conferred upon me by the territorial legislature, without solicitation on my pant, . by a unanimons vote of both branches. That legislature has reserved the power to remove me at any time. The moment that the dark clouds which now obscure our horizon disappear, that moment will . my command be surrendered to the ple. The acts complained of in this inselent pronunciamento were of an official character, so signed and published. Its author has chosen to makea personal matter out of these official acts. With him rests the responsibility thereof. + * * a * eoOne J W. Denver, a mere executive officer, charged with the execution of a// the laws of this territory, has arrogantly usurped and ruthlessly trampled under foot the legislative department of the government of a free people, and in violation of his official oath and duty . secks to unite in his own person, and thus control the power of the sword and the purse of the people to crush out their libe: ties. Truth, justice and menhood require that the villain should be unmasked. I pronounce the charges he has preferred against me utterly untrue and caluminous, and his acts towards the people of Kansas perfidious and tvrannical, and I do arraign one “J. W. DENVER” serore THE COUNTRY, AND DO DENOUNCE AND BRAND HIM AS A COLUMINATOR, PERJURER AND TYRANT, To the people of Kansas I have this tosay:—One J. W. Denver, came to Kansas a_ professed duelist—his hands reeking with the untimely shed blood of his fellow man—having won from his friends the sobriquet of *Autcher,”’—a fit appointee of the o'igarchica’ administration which disgraces the nation ty its ermniual efforts to enslave a free people! For these political purposes he has sought an excuse for a difficulty with ine out of a public act, done in performance of my imperative duty, has fasteneda personal quarrel upon me. As a personal quarrel, it is private property You require rest and peace, and I respectfully demand that there may be no interference on the part of my friends. He bas assaulted me, not fo~ individual action, for IT hare never seen him, but for official action, and as a representative elect of that greatand noble party whom he and_ his masters have soaght toenslave; and in the spirit of that party, as an humble member of it, I hurl back his accusations, and bid him and his masters defiance.

True Delta savs there isa movement going on in that city. having for its object the introduction of the custom of ladies carrying firearms, small pistols, such as are known as vest-pocket pistols, and which can be stowed, without ineumbranece, in the pocket of the fair shooter’s dress, in order to protect themselves from ruffian violence and insolence. Society must be in a sad state in New Orleans, if this statement is true. ADHEsIVRENESS is a large element of success.

Extensive RopBery OF JEWELS.— A robbery, which rivals the famous E}lesmore jewel plunder, and will even bear comparison with that just effeeted by Hanover, has just taken place in Paris; the victim is a Russian lady, the Countess I}linska, residing in the Rue Richepanse, 13. It appears that the Countess, whose husband oceupies the position of Senator at the Court of Russia, lately stopped at Lyons for a few days, when on her way to Paris, with her two daughters, from Switzerland and Italy. Atthe hotel at which she put up at Lyons, one of the porters was particularly active and obliging; and on the Countess’s departure she yielded to his solicitations, and received him into her service. He proved in Paris a very attentive person, and everything went well until a few evenings back, when the femme de chambre of the Countess came to announce to her mistress that a box of plate containing forks and other small articles had disappeared, and that there were no spoons for tea. Onan inquiry being instituted, it was ascertained that not only was the box gone, but likewise the servant brought from Lyons, and that with him had disappeared a mahogany case containing the Countess’s jewels. The plate was fortunately only electro, having been purchased merely to serve the tour, but the jewels were worth between 860,000f. and 900,000f. and had always been remarkable at the Court of St. Petersburg for their beauty. When the robbery was discovered, it was remembered that a few days before, other property of a certain value, though nothing in comparison with what has just been lost, had been taken from the apartment. A friend of the Countess, in passng through Paris, had remained two or three days on a visit with her, and having gone out to make _purchases, without taking the precaution of locking her trunks, found, on her return, that several dresses, a quantity of fine lace and some petty articles of jewelry, had been takeu. ‘The name of the thief is Henri Holls, a meau-tooking man of . nearly forty years of age, speaking Gerjman. French and English. A reward . has been offered fr his apprehension, but. hitherto, allthe re-earches of the police have proved fruitless. Why Cousins should not Marry.—In . In the Annual Report of the Superin. tendent of the Kentucky Institution for the Deaf and Dumb we find the followthe ing conclusive argument against marriage of cousins : From ten to twenty per cent of deaf mutes are the children of cousins. It is greatly to be regretted that the bill forbidding the marriage of first cousins did not pass the recent Legislature. These marriages are a violation of a law of nature, as is evinced by the afflictions vis jited in alinest every case upon their off. Spring, in deafness, blindness and idiotey, and ought to bea violation of human law also. The Commonwealth has the clear right to protect itself against these ill-starred matches, whose offspring it has to sustain too frequently for life. It may be heped that this important subject will not escape the action of our legislators many years longer. It is confidently believed that by forbidding marriages of this kind, and by proper attention and care of infants laboring under the diseases stated, the number of deaf mutes in the community might be diminished one-half in a generation.

At sundown we reached Gaeta This place abounds in historical interest, ana ic was here that the Pope found refuge when he fled from the Republic in 1849. Among the legends of the place is one to the effect that he and the King of Naples, whe had come to visit him in his exile went on board of an American frigate. ‘The commander welcomed them in these terms: ‘Pope, how are you? King. how d’ye do?’ “Here, Lieutenant Comes, you speak French, parley vous with the Pope, while the King and . go down and have a drink. King, come on!” The Science of Murder.—Dr. Quincey wrote an essay on Murder as one of the Fine Arts, which was very well for England, but in Cincinnati a member of the City Council has promoted it to a science. He presented to that body an argument iu favor of appointing uuskilful physicians to the city and county jails, on the ground that poor doctors would kill their patients, and the community be gainers. Tue following laconic prayer was delivered in the lowa House of Representatives on March 10th, by the Rev.

Amen.” WHOLE NUMBER 39, Jupee Dooty anp THE LaANpLoRD. —Harper’s Magazine has a correspondent in Georgia who overflows in guod things. He gets off the following anecdote : Judge Dooly, an eminent jurist in Georgia forty years ago, wasa great wag as well asa great Judge—witty as well as wise. His gravity gave effect even to his jokes, and these were more frequent than his decisions. One of his faneies was to “take people . own” who were im the habit of exaggerating. The way he used np Austin Edwards, keeper of the hotel at Elberton, is a caution to all story-tellers, of whom Austin was the.prince. He always told the whole truth, and more. “It was material,” he said, “he liked uncommon things better than common ones—’twas a heap more amusin’, anyhow. One morning, at -breakfast, this long-bow landlord had-been relating one of his extraordinary yarns, and Judge Dooly being at the hotel, and listening to the story, sat in solemn silence until it was over, and then remarked that he had an awful dream in the night and was very much depressed this morning. The landlord was awake in a moment, and begged the Judge, if it would be no violence to his feelings, to eelate the dream, as all would like to hearit. The Judge still declined, as it might hurt the feelings of others. “Oh, do tell it, Judge—we must have it,”’ urged the landlord, and the company joining in, the Judge proceeded as if he were about to sentence a criminal to be hung : “Well, 1 dreamed last night two lawyers and myself had retired to a private room to divide among us a fee received from a hard case, which had been carried through with a mighty deal of lying on all hands. While we were settling the division, in steps the devil, wha, without any formalities, said he had come for us—we had told lies enough, and if he left us any longer we might repent, and su he’d lose us. We did our best to persuade him te let us off, but he was inexorable, till at last I ventured to ask if he would take a substitute. ‘Whom do you offer ?” he asked. “Austin Edwards,” I said, “keeper of the Elberton Hotel.” “Good! he'll do,” said he, “send him down. I'll take Aim for all three of you!” The table was in a roar, and the landlord was cured, for a time at least, of his habits of overdrawing. He passed away years since, and Judge Dooly is gone, too, sothereis no harm done in telling the story. A Russian Basy.—In the life of a Russian peasant there isa period anterior to all tunics, mantles, and even sheep skins, during which they lead a kind of mummy life, only unlike the Egyptian, it is the first instead of the last stage of their existence ; for the youngest children are always swaddled and rolled up tight in bandakes, so that they may be conveniently put away without risk of getting themselves into mischief or danger. On entering one of their houses, an enthusiastic trave'er thinks he has come upon some pagan tribe, having their idols aud penates, with the heads well carved out, and the rest of the body left in block. He looks curiously at ove laid up on a shelf, another hung to the wallon a peg, a third slung over one of the main beams of the roof, and rocked by the mother, who has the cord looped over her foot. “Why that is a child!’ cries the traveler with a feeling similar to that experienced on treading a toad which was supposed to be astone. “Why, what else should it be?’ answers the mother. Having learned so much in so short a time, the inquisitive traveler wishes tu inform him self about the habits of the creature ; but his curiosity being somewhat dampened by the extreme dirt of the little figure, he enquires of the parent when it is washed. ‘Washed !’’ shrieks the horrified mother, “washed ! what, wash a child! You would kill it.’ . Diseouraged alike from personal investigation of the subject, and from inquiry, he turns to the elder children. When freed from its bandages, the child’s education begins at once, and is wholly of a practical character. He—or she, for it is the same with both sexes—makes his first struggles in life by floundering in the sand or mud in front of the house, clad in a coarse, ragged shirt, aud nothing else. Being taught by stern experience to shun, if possible, the Charybdis of mud, he falls upon Scylla, in the shape of a lean, long-legged pig, which is always prowling about on the chance of something toeat. Looking upon an occasional tumble as one of the natural evils of life, and therefore bearing no malice against his heavy and sometimes inconvenient companion, he begins to imitate the pertinacious diligence with which that animal takes everything into his mouth, rejecting only what is absolutely impossible. JJaving so far finished his education as to distinguish between the evil and the good, in matters of the palate at least, he is promoted to the privilege of the family meals of black bread and “stchi,” or cabbage soup, and to the dignity of an old sheep skin. A Numerous Proceny.—Mr. Samuel Wright is a farmer who resides in Jefferson township, Washington Co., Pa.— He is a hale oid gentleman of over 80 years, and his good ladyis uearly of the same age. He made full time, and a full hand in the harvest fieid last year. Mr. and Mrs. Wiight are the parents of 18 ehildren, grandparents of 111, and great-grandparents of 45—mating an aggregate of 174 children. The old coupleare still enjoying excellent health, and are surrounded by their childrei and children’s children No money is better spent than what is laid out tor domestic satisfaction. A man is pleased that his wife is dressed as well as other people, and_ the wife is pleased that she isso dressed.—Johnson. Tae Rep Perricoat CoxrnvusiaLiy WuhiP-vP-arive.—We see that this new fashion, after all, turns out to be a piquant stimulus, used by Queen Victoria to reawaken the flagging take-noticeism and dormant conjugal susceptibility of Prince Albert. The history of its rise and progress at court, and consequent transplantation to the still more backward husbandry of America, is thus spicily given in the Boston Courter : “Every one knows that her Majesty Victoria indulges annuaily in a pleasant autumnal exeursion to her Castle of Balmoral, in Scotland. Itisa pretty enstom for a bevy of the fairest maidens to assemble on the estate and bid her weleome—arrayed, of course, in their pieturesque holiday attie. We have spoken of the art-sympathies of the gentle Albert. The effect of the looped petticoats, last year, on his sensitive soul was extraordinary. He recognized here a new principle of art before unknown to him, aud gave himself up to its study, until his watchful spouse, thinking that perhaps not art alone, but a little touch of nature might also combine thus to absorb him, resolved to afford him the opportunity of indulging his taste in the domestic circle. Tu short, adopted the scarlet petticoat herself, and no doubt gratified the Prinee beyond expression by this mark of disinterested devotedness “And the Queen carried the red petticoat to London with her; and Eugenia saw it and fell in love with it; and all the ladies of rank were seized with a violent scarlet fever; and Lady Gore Ousley transplanted the exotic to this country, causing it unexpectedly to bloom forth at Washington, to the delight and wonder of every one, including the administration and both Houses of Congress; and leaders in the female fashionable world at home have awakened to the practicability of creating & new sensation, and have boldly seeonded Lady Gore; and very soon tl e searlet skirt will cease to be an exotie, and will flourish here as freely as if ‘native and to the manner born.’” For the enlightenment of our readers, we copy from the same editorial of our Boston cotemporary a description of the original breaking out of the new epidemic scarletina : “The peasant maidens of parts of Ireland and Seotland have a holiday dress, an important particular of which isa crimson petticoat, of coarse texture, to be sure, but worn with grace, and neatly looped up at one side just sufficiently to reveal bright glimpses of snowy stoeking, but never a shadow of anything like garter, for such revelations, as every woman knows, bring into shockin conflict the poetic ideal with the blunt practical and material. Symptoms of the Chivalry.—The honorable Mr. W. Swith, of Virginia, anneunced on Saturday that he should make publi use of auy private conver. sation which any person might hold with him upon publie affairs, if he thot’ it conductive to the public welfare, unless it was expressly stated at the time that it was confidential. We suspect that this frank but slightly sneaking declaration will render Mr. W. Smith's acquaintances a little cautious in their private conversations with him upon polities. After this, he will probably hear nothing worth retailing. Some men find it impossible to be patriots except by becoming spies—N. Y. Times. Sale of Liamas.—The thirty-eight llamas imported into the city of New York last fall from South Ameriea were offered for sale at auction in the suburbs of that town on Saturday. When originally shipped there were seventy-two, bit some eighteen or twenty died at Panama, and eight or ten on shipboard, so that only forty-two reached New York alive. Since they weie landed four of the weakest have died. The auction was unsuccessful. At private sale afterwards three were disposed of to be sent to Australia. The cost of the adventure has been such as to fix the price asked far too high. Apt.—A young gentleman of a dozen summers—a pupil in one of the public schools—who is sadly adicted to playing truant, was severely flogged for a delirquency of this kind the other day. On the conclusion of his punishment, the teacher was greatly astonished and the school vastly amused, to hear him break out in a snatch which he had probably picked up during the recent revival at the M. E. Church : “Prone to wander—Lord I feel tt.” Governor Denver testified as follows before the legislative committee on the election frauds in Kansas: “I asked Calhoun, the next day after the count, how long he would continue to receive returns; he replied, until Congress shall act un the Lecompton Constitution.” The difference of understanding between a young lady and her admirer, was simply this: Byron Collar thought Crinoline took an interest in his welfare, while Crinoline knew she took an interest in his farewell.
