Curious Anecdote.-Thef Cuuntesso6f
Orkney died lately at the advanced age
Of se,en,y-six. She was the daughter
Of Marrough, fifth Earl of Ichiquiu, and
afterwards first Marquis of Thomand By
Mary. Countess of Orkney in her own
right, Of whom the following curious an.
ecdote is related. She was deaf and
dumb, and was married in 1853, by
signs. She lived with her husband, who
was also her first cousin, Mt his seat Ros-
.ellas, on the harbour of Cork. Shortly
after the birth Of her first child (ths la
dy laiely deceased) the nurse, with con-
siderable establishment, saw The mother
cautiously approach the cradle in which
the infant was sleeping, evidently full of
some deep design. The Countess, hay-
ing perfectly assured herself that the
child really slept, exposed an immense
stone which she had concealed under
her shawl, and to the horror of the nurse
who, like all persons Of the lower orders
in her countries, was fully impressed
with IN idea of the peculiar cunning and
malignity of" dumbies," lifted it with
ar intent to throw it down vehemently.
Before the nurse could interpose, the
Countess had flung the stone, not, how.
ever, as the servant had apprehended,
at the child, but on the floor, where, Of
course, it made n grent noise. The
child Immediately awoke, and cried.
The Countess, who had looked with ma
ternal eagerness to the result of her ex-
pertinent, fell on her knees in transport
If JOY. She had discovered that her
child possessed the sense that was want
ing in herself.

WEpNA, PRrNcEss OF POLAND. This
princess was of surprising beauty, of
grent talents, and of still greater am-
biiion. Power she deemed too sweet to
be divided with another, and she ihere-
fore resolutely refused all offers Of mar
riage. Incensed at her haughiiness, or
in the hopes of accomplishing by force
what persuasion had attempted in vain,
Rudiger, one Of her lovers, who was a
Ger nan prince, adopted n novel mode
of courtship. At the head of an army
he invaded her domini0ns. She march
ed against them. When the two armies
met, Rudigcr again besought her to lis
ten 10 his suit, and thereby spare the eff
fusion of blood. The maiden WAS inex-
orable she declared that no man should
ever share her throne that she would
never become the slave of a husband.
since, whoever he might be, he would as
suredly love her person much less than
her power. Her answer being spread
among the officers of Rudiger, produced
an effect which he little ioresaw. Filled
with admiration at the courage Of the
princess, whom they perceived hurrying
from rank to rank in the act Of stimulat-
ing her followers to the combat, aud
convinced that all opposition TO her
! will would be worse than useless, they
surrounded their chief, and asked him
what advantage he hoped to gain from
such nm expedition. "lf thou shouldst
defea, the princess, will she pardon thee
the loss Of her troops' II thou art sub
dued, will she be more disposed 10 love
thee J" The passion of Rudigrr bind
ed him 10 the rational remonstranee Of
his followers: he persisted ia his resolu.
| tion uf fighting: they refused to ad-
vance; in utter despair he laid hands IN
himself, and turning his dying looks to-
wards the camp of The Poles. Wenda.
We are told showed no sign Of sympathy
nt the tragical news, but returnod triun,-
plant to Cracow.- Her own end wus
no, less violent. Whether, as is assert
ed, to escape similar persecution, or as
is equally probable, from remorse at her
own cruelty, having one day sacrificed
TO the gods, she threw herself iu,o the
waters ofthe Yistula, andthhere perish
ed.

Russell (as was then sad) which spoiled all, as his
effort resutodin an abortion. Upon another occas-
ion similar occurrence took place, which seemed
as if his evil genius was determined to thwart
him. The gentleman adyerted to, it has been said,
has foi time had him in leading strings, and per-
haps the cords no,o arc only drawn little tighter,
which has resulted in a somerset. However,
another cause has been stated as operating upon
Mr. Booth fol changing his politics, which he may
perhaps justify on the score ofinterest and which
has assigned to the Jackson party, more exertion
in getting.up memorials to the Legislature, for the
removal of the courts TO Wilmington, than has
been used by the Clay party and which is believed
not TO be the case,) and as Mr.. Booth is opposed
to the removal he may suppose he can exert grea-
ter influence with the Clay party being new
convert, than he could, had he remained in the
jackson ranks, yet even in this he may be mistake
en-, as il is confidently said that, the lower counties
will not oppose it. Yet after all this, even the
detection OF Mr.. Booth, will not change the fiat
the American people will pronounce in favour of
tho old Conceal, as he will be reelected just as
certain as he lives, sa FAREWELL,

MAJOR BENNETT.

We understand that the opposition circulating report
that Major Bennett declared that tho Sabbath ought to be

bly, unworthy of notice. further than they show to what
few desperate and mprincpled leaders will for in
Auencng election Major Bennett needs not the rcfa

useful life regulated by the most correct and moral princi
peund uctuatcd by the puret motives of benevocnce and
philanthropy have endeared him the citizens of this city
and county, and the polls the coming election will tell in
what estimation he held by all parties where he is known
He is believe member of no particular sect but his life
and acts have exhibited him friend to ALL We acknow

Richard BoyardWe observe that the opposition have
already commenced venting their spleen against this gentle
man. in the malicious and uounded accusations As
Mayor of this city Mr. Bayard has thus far filed the Office,
we believe. with entire satisfaction to the candid of all par
