ry known either to our law, or Texan la W
for coming to this determination, Mr..
Webster charges the President with hav.
ing committed an "impeachabIe offence"

GETTING AT A SECRET.-The French
are drOll people; so their newspapers
contain the queerest reports. Here is the
latest -
Mad'lle de A. became indisposed,
so her father called in the family doctor,
and lett them together.
The doctor was curious and SUSPICION
as to the cause of the young Iady's sick
ness. He drew lancet from hls poke
TO bleed her, but a, the moment he press
ed the vein, he exclaimed
"Ah, mon Dieuv'
"What is the matter, Monsieur2'
SMILE, hal nearly killed you"
skilled me2"
Lis'en!' here he drew lancet from
his pocket; "here are two lanceis; IN,
first is for wives, the second for maids
You see how necessary it is IL be ca-efu
in the use Of surgical instruments. Yo,
are maiden, OF course"
"Certainly, Monsieur"
SWELL, if bleed you with the wives

Gr We make the following extract

idea of the interesting points and places OF
the captured city.
After passing Arista's Palace, do you
see, to i6e west, that venerable looking
old pile upon high hill? That is called
the B shops Palace. The enemy occu-
pied It. Towards the town some two or
three heavy pieces were mounted In par
bette. Ii is quite large pile, and gives
one quite good idea of some OF the small
err castles in Spain and merry England.
Some 70 or 80 years ago it was the Arch
bishops residence, and many gay caVa-
ller and lady fair has been entertained al
his hospitable board. 1t is now rum,
fast crumbllng away, more interesting 10

AN ALABAMA LEGIsLAToR-A cores
pondent of the Montgomery Journal tells
the following good anecdote ON "Fat
George, the member from Henry" con-
nected with his first visit to Mobile. Col
D had persuaded George to go with
him TO Mobile, where the "nember from
Henry" for the first time saw ''sights"
calculated to excite emotions of wonder ia
the unsophisticated mind:
They stopped at the "Waverly," and on
the day after their arrival, the colonel en-.
quired as to the state of George's general
health, and especially as TO how he had
rested the previous night.
"ToIlaute, Bob. losvl1' uun chunk of n
scare got last night"
"As howP" asked Bob.
"Why, you'll take notice." said George,
''the room the bar-keeper allotted for me
to have, | took particular notice of it

and brass lock handle-and | wouldn't

O'Clock come home, with about a halt

We were not manv-we who stood
Before the iron sleet that day
Yet many a gallant spirit would
Give half his years if he out could
Have been with US at Monterey.
Now here, now there, the shot, it hailed
In deadly drifts of fiery spray,
Yet not single soldier quailed fed
When wounded comrades roun nd them wall.
Their dying shout at Monterey.
And on-stiil on our column kept
Thro' walls of fame its whitening way
Where fell the dead, the living slept,
Still charging on the guns which swept
The slippery streets of Monterey.
The foe himself recoiled aghast,
When, striking where he strongest lay
We swooped his thanking batteries past,
And Drawing full their murderous blast,
Stormed home the towers of Monterey.
Our banners on those turrets wave,
And there our evening bug!es play;
Where orange boughs above their grave
Keep green the memory of the brave
Who fought and fell at Monterey.
We are not many-we who press'd
Beside the brave who fell that day;
But W no of us has not confessed
He'd rather share their warrior rest,
Than not have been at Monterey!

Good Night.


FROM GERMAN OF KoRNER.
Good night.
Let troubles pass away with light.
Day declineth, fades away:
Till breaks forth the new morn's ray
Busy hands shall cease their toll:
Good night.
Go TO rest;
Let the eyes in sleep be press'd.
All is silent in the streets;
The Waterman alone the hour repeats
And Silly night doth beckon all,
Go to rest.
Slumber light;
Of Paradise your dreams be bright:
Let glorious visions giId thy dreams
Fancy thou feelest loves warm beams
Though waking love is cold to thee,
Sumber light.
Good night;
Slumber till the day is bright;
Slumber till the morning fair
Brings its trou bles and its care;
Fearless slumber-God is watching;
Good night.

Capt Fremont and his party, who had ar
rived there "A few days previous overland.
The lieutenant and some Of his brother
officers visited the captains camp, when
the following amusing incidents occurred:
Capt. Frem 'nt's party arrived here on
Sunday last; his force has been swellsd
10 300 strong by the addition Of two CON-
lanies OF volunteers, American California
settlers. For few DAYS they were the
graad attraction. not only 20 the officers Of
our own squadron bat more especially 10
the Officers OF the Coingwood, an En-
glish 30 gun ship. They are indeed fine
specimens OF the bone and sinew of our
country, with The bold and reckless bear
ing which you would expect to meet with
i in men engaged in so hazardous and dar-
ing enterprises. The effect of this is
greatly increased by their dress-being
entirely of buskskIn-hunilng shirt, trow-

no exagperatIon; and you are at liberty
to make the positive assertion and give me
as your authority.
