Carriers Addresses are generally magnificent
eEusions but that which the Hartford Courant
presented to It's readers tins season, is the rarest
specimen OF the sublime. We give an extract
"But 10 Palmeto's chvarous zeal
Her bottled ire burst cork and seal
She loams and raves, in rampant spunk,
Like dog distraught or monkey drunk
Swears she'lhitch on a red-eyed Dragon,
To dire Belonas carnage wagon:
And pull, slam bang, wars dreadful trigger,
Ere she'll give up one single niger"
The extract can only be exceeded by the

You sneaked behind bunch of ihlstles,
And shooted him dead with a pair OF hoss pls'

MAHoNEDAN VIEWS OF AMERICAN PofITfts
"A learned friend, says the Picayune. who
speaks of getting up polyglot upon the prn-
ciple Of Ercsson's propeller, has furnished u1
with free translation, from our Constantinopio
files, of an article upon the subject Of the lato
Presidential election. The followers of Allah
and the Prophet have taken some interest in A.
merican affairs since Ecktord, the ship Con-
structor, visited their country and built ships for
the Sultan. The progress made in the know
ledge Of our concerns may be gathered from the
following extract. The barbarians have not
quite got the hang of things yet; but all due
allowances considered, they are as well in
formed as some Christian folk who descant upon
Uncle Sans business with great freedom and
selfsatistacton
"Of the three candidates" says the Constan-
tinople editor, ''now seeking to be Caliph of
America two are men of remarkable endow-

Southern States. In the North, where there

close one between Mr.. Kai and Mr.. Pulk but

THE BLoop FisH.-Our Indians caught with
a hook the fish knowR in the cOuatry by tha
name of caribe or carabiio, because no other
fish has such thirst for blood. 1t attacks hl-
theirs and swimmers, from whom it often carries
away considerable pieces OF flesh. The lndl-
ans dread extremely these carbes, and several
of them showed us the scars of deep wounds in
the calf ofthe leg and in the thigh made by these
little animals. When person is only slight
ly wounded, it is difficult for him to get out Of
The water without receiving severe wound.
The blood-fsh lives at the bottom Of the river.
bat if once few drops o blood be she'd upon tho
water, they arrive by thousands on the surtace.
When we reflect on the number of these
fish, the most vnracious and cruel of which are
only four or FIVE inches long on the trianCn-
lar form Of their sharp cutting teeth, and on the
aptitude oftheir rrtracte mouth, we need 60t
be surprised at the fear which they excite in
the inhabitants of the banks Of the Apure AMI
Oronocn. In places where the river was very
limprd, and where not tish appeared, we threw
into the water little morses OF flesh covered
with blood, and in a few minutes cloud OF car
ibes came 10 dispute the prey. The belly OF
this FISH has a cutting edge Indicated like saws
its body, towards the back is ash colored, With
tint of green; but the under part, the gill'co-
vers and the pactoral fins are of fine orange
The carbito hasa very agreeable taste. As no
nue dares 10 bathe where it is found 1t may be
considered as one of the greatest scourges Of
those climares in which the sting Of the mos
qutoes and the consequent irritation ofthe skr'
render the use of baths so necessary.-IfHa.-
