The husband went, with ten of his friends, all armed ‘witb pis. tols, knives and whisky, to tear ber from . his rival’s arms, Said rival was boss of a . flume contract, and his employees, getting wind of the intended assault upon his prem. ises and prize, rallied to protect them.

Sour America.—Dates from Lima and Callao, to November 29th, repreeent that he greatest excitement prevailed in the latter city, on accouut of an attempt atlution which took place on the 23d Yous, The revolationists bad brought over onehalf of a batallion, and directed themselves early in the morning to the house of the President. They disarmed a part of the guard, killed its officer, wounded severely the President’s aid-de-camp, and would probably have succeeded in their attempt, Ir the Colonel of the same batallion, with the rest of his troops, had not arrived to tarn against their revolutionary leaders, and to shoot several of them down—amongst them the son of old General Aparicio and Col, AlarThe others made their escape. President Castilla himself was hidden during the affray, which saved his life. The conspiracy was made by the ultra Liberal party in favor of Gen. Firmin Castillo and of the Constitution of 1856; and therefore the country may congratulate itself that the outbreak did not succeed, for the Constitution of 1856 was the most ridiculous composition for a half savage country that eould be imagined; the abolition ef capital punishment which it decreed was quite enough to make its results pernicious. Gen, Jackson on Nvuuiricatigy.—The following is an extract from Gen. Jackson’s proclamation to the people of South Carot.na, when that State “nnllified:’’ “Tell them, that compared to disunion all other evils are light, because that brings with it an accumulation of all—deelare that you will never take the field unless the star spangled banner of your country shall float over you—that you will not be stigmatized when dead, and dishonored and scorned while you live, as the authors of the first attack on the Constitution of your country! its destroyers you cannot be. You may disturb its peace—you may interrupt the course of its prosperity—you may cloud its reputation for stability—but its tranquility will be restored—its prosperity return, and the stain upon its national ¢ aracter will be transmitted, and remain an eternal blot . last, and sent one of their number, who thought he had some influence with the recreant wife, to reason the matter with ber, She answered his pacific arguments with a vesse} full of hot water, and an imperative orde> to “git”? ; whereupon he ‘got,’’ and all negotiatiations ended. The assailing party, finding that forcible measures would be forcibly resisted, concluded to return whence they came without more ado, A few days subsequently, one of the flume . hands, named Burns, was met by some of “the ten,’? and fired upon in a very cow. ; ardly manner by two persons. He had to . run for his life, and was luckily not hit. He has since lodged a complaint against his dastardly assailants, and warrants are . now out for their arrest. The citizens of Indian Hill are much incensed at the attempted murder. { published at Honolulu, says in its issue of . December 8th : On Saturday evening the weather was fine, the sea still, and but little winda stirring. During the night the sea gradually . rose in the harbor of Kabului to toe height . of eight or ten feet above its ordinary bigh . water level, and spread over the beach, de. stroyiug several fences but doing no other . serious injury. On Sunday morning the . sea, though still very fall, had greatly sub. . sided in height, but throughout the day the . bay was full of tide-rips and the water was . boiling, as ifin a kettle, the weather still . continuing good with but little wind. At . Maliko the water rose up a glen or little . valley, which abuts on the sea sbore, and . washed away a small hamlet, of 10 or 12 . native houses, only one house being left standing. The sea rising gradually, the people had warning, and no lives were lost . CamELs vs. Mvuirs.—Ono this head the . Placerville Califoraian observes : A late number of Hutehing’s Magazine, . gives an interesting history of the Bactrian . camels imported by an enterprising firm of . San Francisco. If 600 pounds is the aver. age cargo, we see no great advantage to be derived in substituting camels in place of . mules. Mead’s train left this city a few . days since with telegraph wire for the Over. land Co., each pack weighing 420 pounds, . and made the usual time to Carson City. . Taking into consideration the great differ. ence in cost, and weight of cargo, we see . no great advantage to be derived by substitutiog camels for beasts of burden in . place of the tough and hardy mule, espe. cially in this latitade. Down South, the . camels would perbaps have the preference. Nep McGoway.—The Amador Ledger . learns that Ned McGowan has taken up his . residence in that county; a later report, . however, says that only bis hat and coat are there, he having left for Congress, Urnvavine or tun Sea.—The Polynesian, . on the memory of those who caused the disorder,”’ tesa’ Earty Piery.—A remarkable case of very “early piety’? has just been found in Brussels. The police, making their rounds at midnight, found an ordinary clothes line hanging near a door, several feet above the ground, and tracing its history discovered that it came out of a garret window above They entered the house, convinced that they were on the track of a daring burglar thoroughly searched all the premises and, at last, on walking into the garret, were horrified to find themselves confronted by a housemaid, in a very easy evening dress who, with many tears, explained that the mysterious clothes-line was attached to her left arm, in order that a young waiter, to whom she was attached, coming early in . the morning, with a jerk might call her to prayers at the cathearal, As this exvlained the clothes-line, and there was not much in the clothes-line before them, the discomfitted and blushing police beat a hasty retreat, enn j Ir people would discern and distinguish, insiead of confusing and confounding, they would see thatthe best way of putting down the abuse of a thing, is to make it useful. Would you lop off everybody's hands, beeause they might be turned to . picking and stealing? Neither is the intel. lect to be shorn of any of its members ; seeing that, though they may all be perverted they may all minister to good. The busy have no time to be fidgety. He who is following his plough, will not be breaking windows with the mob, Littleis gained by overthrowing aud svevping away an idol, unless you restore the idea, of which it is the shell and sedir 2nt. Nor will you find any plan so effective for keeping folks from doing harm, as teaching them to employ their faculties in doing good, and giving them plenty of good work to do,— at Truth. 9) sa Live in tae East.—A late traveler has in a few words described the most striking . features of oriental cities, He writes: “Dir. ty streets, foul gutters, narrow lanes, filthy rags, starved dogs, stately dromedaries, stubborn donkeys, lazy lubbers, eross-lecged Turks, skulkiog Jews, black Nubians, brown Bedouins, suunds unearthly, sights disgusting, smells distressing, grand squares splendid bazars, glittering domes, tapering minarets, and dear and dirty hotels.” ImpupENce.—It is said that Lincoln has received from California numerous applications for office, with requests for replies by Pony Express—at his own expense, of ; course! There’s impudence, Governor Downer refuses to accept the resignation of Brigadier General Cobb. EE I ee
