BITTER REWARD OF CoNJUGAL INFIDEIITY.
"A wretch named DIR. Peake, known by ma
ny persons in Memphis, he having spent part
OF last summer here, was recently killed in
Columbia, Arkansas, by Lieut. Wilcox, of the
United States Army, under the following cir
cumstances Peake several months since, en-
ticed the wife of Wilcox to elope. with them
an interesting little daughter of hers, about
three years old The injured husband scarCh h.
ed for them until he found them.--~fie walked
into Peaks house, told him his business, saying
to him he was welcome to the woman, but he
wanted his child and although threatened by
Peake, took his little girl and went into the
tavern.--Peake soon followed, went to Will
cox's room and threatened to Kill him if he did
not give him the child back. Wilcox told him
not to enter his room door, or he would kill
him -Peake rushed his hand into his bosom
for pistol, when Wilcox, being quicker, drew
his and shot him down, afterwards run him
through with a bowie knife. He went before
"a magistrate and was acquitted. Pcake deser-
we'd his fate, and more lasting and painful
punishment. Wilcox and his wretched wife,

From IIAM,LTos's RESEARCHES IN ASIA MINOR.
Uss OF CHAIRS IN ASIA Minor. This was
bazaar or market day; affd as we rode through
the town On our way to NIksar, we saw exposed
for sale maay dccenty manufactured four-leg-
ged chairs had never seen them used in the
houses, and it was long before ascertained the
purpose to which they were applied by the
peasants. Corn is thrashed in Asia Minor, as
in some other parts Of the East by dragging
heavy board stuck full oi sharp filnts over the
straw, on which, in order TO increase the pres
sure, a man or a ccurle OF boys generally stand;
but, besides the difficulty of keeping their
balance, this is tatiguing operation, and there
fore they sit on chair whenever they can pro-
cure one,
FL,rrERERs DIT.- Many anecdotes were
current at Smyrna respecting llussen Bey, the
Governor, who had the character of being the
most notorious and rapacious oncy-maker in
| the empire, Some OF his nxpeGicrts are worth
| recording as instances Of Turkish manners
He possesses a large house and garden, near
| Burnoubat, which produces excellent fruit, and
| in which two years ago he had most abundant
crop of cherries Anxious to sell them 10 ad-
vantage. he sent for the principal truiterers to
value them /; who were all equally dcsirous Of
pro2tiating the Governor 10y prsisng his fruit.
They We'd with each other in estimating the
quantity as well as the quality, and ended by
congratulating llussem Dcy on his good fortune
and success, But they did not know whom
they had to deal with; for no sooner had he 20,
1 them to declare unanimously that his cherries
were worth some highly preposterous sum,
than iie nailed them to their bargain, and de-
clared they should not leave his house until
they had bought his fruit at the price they had
named. Remons,rance was useles, and they
were compelled TO pay the penalty of their
hattery.
| PAYMENTS IN TuRKEv.--H is contrary TO al
the habits and practices of Turkish society ol
domestic life to pay an inferior he is merely
lodged and fed, and occasionally receives pre-
sent. The usual mode by which Pacha Agha
or Governor rcmuneates his followers, is BY
sending them TO some neighboring town or di
strict, to convey an order, to receive taxes, o
to se,tlea dispute; in these cases the town
village, or district, is charged with the pay
ment OF a certain sum to the bearer, accordin!
to the distance and Importance of the business
the amount being generally written on the or
der This explains how the Turkish Govern
ors are enabled to support so many and sue
large establishments.

How TO CLEAN KID GLovEs,-Take a piece
of flannel, moisten it with a little milk, rub it
on cake Of nice hard soap, and then apply it
to the soiled part of the glove. AS soon as you
have removed the dirt, rub the kid with dry
piece of flannel. Care must be taken not to
make the glove too wet In these hard times
people scour upand make every thing go as
far as they can.

The New York Mercury has the following
brief chapter on the peculiarities of language
which mark the difference between an English
man and an American.
When an Englishman wishes to offer wa

SrRAps.-We commend the following to the
attention of such of our fair readers as find fault
with gentlemen who will not use straps DR.
Smith, of the Medical and Surgical Journal
says tigh, straps under the feet, when the leg
is flexed, press the knee-pan so forcibly into
the cavity of the joint, that it is by no means
strange that there are numerous instances OF
weakness, rheumatic pains, and soreness OF
