" Matrimony," said a modern Benedict the other day,
"produces remarkable revolutions. Here am I, for instance,
in ten short months changed from a sighing lover to a
loving sire,"
AFRICAN EXODUS,—The Petersburg (Va.) Express says
—" Our citizens are beginning to observe the unusual
number of slaves that are constantly passing through
Petersburgh on their way South ;• and to the minds of
many the result appears inevitable that it will need but the
work of ten or twenty years to clear Virginia cimpletely of
that part or her population. A company of one hundred
passed through on Saturday.

annoying than a bad pen—every one knows the misery. The pen

what is of the greatest value, it, does not corrode, but will work with

Boca.—One c.f tha greatest domestic zulsances, especially in the
spring and summer of the year, is the prevaleuce of bugs. Many
means have been tried to Tv event or exterm nate them, but all
hitherto ineffectually. Cleanliness may check, but cannot eradicate
them. Mr. IL Greer, late one of the Liverpool sanitary officials,
after intense study and deep research with many practical experi-
ments, in the usual pursuit of his official avocation, has at length
discovered the great deside atom, " Greer's Patent Anti-Bug Lotion,"
is an unfailing exterminator of bugs, fleas, &c. It is 'clean, simple
in application, agreeable in smell, and perfectly innoxious save to
insects. To be had at the AntaVerniin Office, 49, Brownlow-hill,
Liverpool, in bottles at Is, 2s. and 4s each.—Adet.
Emigrants to the UNITED STATES and CANADA, by taking the
Through Tickets of the Grand Trunk Railway Company, are con-
veyed from their port of landing to their destination In less than opts
Qualms OF THE TIME taken by Steam Beat!, and at about the same
rates of fares. Thus a passenger can reach Chicago from Quebec, a
aistanca of 1,007 miles, in less than 2i days, whereas by water it is
nearly doub'e the distance, and requires from 12 to 15 days, with dire
or six changes of Steam Boats, during all of which they are exposed
to the arts and machinations of designing persons. whose sole means
of living is by their plunder. The Steam Boats, especially when
crowded, scarcely afford protection from the e‘ther. Passengers
with Through Tickets are allowed the same amount of luggage. free,
as on board the ship, and it is conveyed from the Ship to the Railway
Station without any charge uhatevvr. The Agents of the Grand
Trunk Company will give Mechanics, Art sans, and labourers, on
their arrival, the best information in respect to employment, the
pl.ces at which it is to be had, and the rates of wages. Intending
,emigrants can have sent to them, free, a Tariff of Pa senger Rates ;
and all their enquiries with regard to the sat ing of both steamers
and sailing ships, Scale of Dietary, &c , will be immediatelyansweied

Loss OF HOGS BY DISEASE.—A writer in a Cincinnati
paper, giving an idea of the number of hogs that have
died this season of cholera, states the losses at the fol-
lowing places, thus : —" At Ingraham's distillery, from the
Ist of August to the 24th of October, 1,285. At the
distillery in Pittsburg since the 18 h of October, 2,576.
Mr. Plate, of Rising Sun, lost 500. Mr. Slumber, of
Covington' 600; Messrs. Gaff, of Aurora, 4,546. "At
New Richmond, since the dis,ase made its appearance,
10,435 have died, and in the vicinity of Aurora, 6,000
have died. Making an aggn gate, as far as accoun's have
been received, of 60,000 hogs, valued at 300 000 dole, and
when fatted would have been worth 630,000 dots. _

You know that in Piris, every theatre has an employed
body of clappers, (called ch-t2tters), who bold themselves in
a great part responsible for iho good or bad reception of a
piece. The claque is in fact an institution, and the chief
regards himself as an artist of the first importance in the
house. He even arrogates to himself, as in the case of
David at the Grand Opera, the title of Chief des Fravaux
de Reception. David sits in the third row of seats in the
pit, on the only seat that has a Nand back ; at his sides
are his son and his second lieutenant ; behind him sits
another lieutenant and all the regiment, numbering on
extraordinary occasions thirty persons. On the flanks sit
the solitaires, poir music-struck individuals and aspirants
for musical honours, who only pay half-price to David
(that is his perquisite) and are not held to claque when
their conscience opposes. According to a theatrical journal,
on days of a first representation David does not dine, in
order to preserve all his sang froid. After the curtain
drops, if the piece is a success, he sups ; if the piece has
been coldly received, if he has had to work his regiment
rudely, he has a fever and goes straight home to bed.
After the first representation of " Marco Spada," David
supped.
