THREE THURSDAYS IN ONE WEEK. Let a
vessel sail east round the world, and arrive on
Thursday, according to their reckoning. On
the following day, let the crew land; they will
find it Thursday on shore. On the next day,
let them board a vessel which has just arrived
from cruise round the world, sailing in
westerly direction, they will again find it
Thursday on board that ship. Thus they will
find three Thursdays in one week. So says
contemporary.

BABIES IN CHURCH AND PUBLIC Places
The editor of the Pittsburg Chronicle-for
ought we know bachelor-thus discourses
of the improperly of taking babies to church,
"Babies are fine things-in their places
We like them at home in the nursery-the on
ly proper place for that class of juveniles,
coming under the denomination of babies
Bet in church babies are nuisances. Now crow
ing, now crying, constantly keeping up some
noise or other, they distract the attention of
the audience and disturb the nerves of the
speaker. Gingerbread will sometimes keep
them quiet, but not often. Babies never sleep
in church-not they They are as wide awake
as weasels, but by no means as still Some fond
mothers take their babies to church for the
purpose ofshowing them. This is a bad policy.
No body, except the doating parents, ever. sees
any beauty in babies at church. We never saw
a baby yet, however smart at home, that did
credit to itself in public assembly. 1t would
be sure to do something to make everybody
hate it before the meeting was half over. Mo-
theirs, therefore, who wish to preserve the
characters of their babies, for being well behav-
ed and quiet babies, should never take them to
church, or-into stage COACH"

BALTIMORE MONEY MARKET. The money
market, says the Patriot, may be considered a
shade easier than as last reported, several of
our banks having, during the past week, dis
counted very literally; the demand however
for money continues, and is greater than the
supply, and will continue so until our indebt-
edness to the Eastern cities is settled, which
we understand will be done between this and
the fourth and seventh of this month, when
drafts for specie will close. The causes, there
fore, for the scarcity of money at this time are
entirely disconnected with any matters, foreign
or political, as all apprehensions in regard to
the effect of the Sub Treasury bill and the
Oregon question, seem to be entirely alayed,

MEXICAN TRAVELS. A remarkable case is thus
mentioned by the Paris correspondent of the
Boston Atlas:
Another instance of his astonishing recol-
lection of the persons he knew in America, &C.
Cured few days afterwards, at the presenta-
ton of Col. Todd, our late minister at st. Pet
ersburg. No sooner had he welcomed the
Colonel to his court, than he remarked: "And
pray, are you any connection Of u Miss Mary
Todd, with whom | was acquainted in Ken
tucky-a great heiress, if mistake not?" 1t
may not be amiss to add that the lady in ques-
ton was the mother of Mr.. Wickliffe, our
late Postmaster G. General.

ANECDoTE OF AN lNTEMPERATE ACTOR
Frederic Cooke, the great English performer, land
the contemporary of John Kemble, was a notori-
GUS inebriate, and to procure the exciting
draught he would resort to any subterfuge or
contrivance 1t is of him that the following
anecdote is related:
His passion for drink was so great, that when
he was without money, or means of raising it,
he had been known to go to certin pawnbrok-
er'Iwhere he was in the habit of applying, and
to sav-'I want five guineas; but have moth
ing to pledge but myself. Give me the money
they'll be sure to redeem me when am want
ed.' And having sent word to the theatre ofhs
situation, he has frequently been found seated
on the pawnbroker's counter, with duplicate
pinned to his buttonhole. On one occasion
when the manager, Elliston wished him par
tcularly to be quite correct, he invited him
to dinner, and afterwards begged he would OBJ
lige him by submitting to one thing, which
Fred promised. He, however, looked rather
funny when Elliston, drawing him into small
room in thel theatre, told him he must content
himself there till it was time to dress. As
there was no getting off, Cooke consented; but
after being locked in for some time, he began
to long horribly for punch. BY and by, he
heard a noise of broom on the stairs Hope
revived-he called "Mary, Betsy! whatever
your name is, come here for Gods sake!" and
he contrived, while curiosity made the maid
pause in her labor, to push crown-pece be-
tween the door and the floor, "There that's for
you: and Mary Gushing through another) go
like good girl, and get me pint of brandy
and clean pipe with this"
"Oh, sir, dare not! Master desired that |
shouldn't come near the door, sir, nor speak to
you upon any account"
"Pshaw! Go, do as tell you, and you shall
have another by and by"
The girl was not proof against the bribe.-
The brandy and pipe were both brought, and
the tube of the latter being put through the
keyhole, the bowl was filled on the outside, and
in this way the liquor was sucked up as the A
mercans drink sherry-cobler. 1t is hardly ne
cessary to say, that on Elliston's coming to let
him out, Fred was found on his back; but a
plentiful supply of soda water enabled him to
60 through his part.

MURDER IN COLUMBIA, S. c. A negro fel-

had lived for many years as man and wife.

A MINISTER IN DILEMMA. The Mexi-
can Republican of late date says;-"We
have learned that Mr.. Caro-, our Minister in
France, is lying dangerously sick; but yet such
is his state of poverty, that he has scarcely
been able to get the necessary means for his
cure. 1t certainly is great dishonor to our
country, that one of our representatives in
Europe, and of the merit which Senior CAIRO
possesses, should be in such situation; but
certainly he is not the first example of the
carelessness Of our Government

INTRODUCTION OF Corn INTO ENGLAND
The New York Express makes the following
remarks in relation TO the introduction of In
dian corn into England:
The movements in Great Britain, for the ge-
neral use of Indian corn, attract great deal of
attention in this country, and are, indeed of
great Importance to all our agricultural States,
but more particularly to such as are on the sea.
board Maryland, Virginia, and North Caro-
lima, too far North for cotton, but in the very
best Of the corn growing region. Whenever
our conal tolls can be reduced, the supply of
this article can be ilimitabe from Illinois, In
diana, and the North Western States general
ly; but 1t cannot be laid down at the price
which was assumed in Parliament of eos. per
quarter. On the contrary, after all allowance
Tor increased production resulting from increas-
ed and permanent demand, it cannot be safely
assumed, that it ian be laid down in England
IN ordinary years at a price under 26s to 29s;
but even at that it would be the cheapest food
that could be obtained in England"

SOMETHING IN THE EAR. A gentleman in
this city, on Thursday night last was aroused
from sleep by voice, as he said, ''louder
than thunder" and springing from his bed, he
raved through the house like maniac, the
thunder still continuing. The inmates of the
house being aroused, it was found that the
thunder" was caused by something which had
found its way into his ear. He was taken to
physician, and, on the way, the pain in his ear
was so agonzing, that he sent forth the most
heartrendlng shrieks. On arriving at the
house of the physician, it was necessary to hold
the unfortunate man until his ear underwent
the necessary examination The physician
finally introduced his instrument, and extracted
a large Glack cOckrOach, when the man was inn
mediately relieved.
1t Is said that ,car in PERSONS ear will pre-
vent insects from entering it. If that be the
case, people would do we'll not to be too nice

[For the Baltimore Clipper.l

observe that the Patriot of yesterday after
noon is down upon you for saying, in reference
to the case Of Charles J. Ingersoll, ''we should
like to see the lawyer who would not docket as
many suits as the law would allow"
do not pretend to become the vindicator of
Mr.. lngersoll, though will venture the asser-
ton, that if the friends of Mr.. Webster cannot
defend him better than by vil(ying Ingersoll,
they had better say nothing at all, 1t looks too
much like ttunt, as military men say, to draw
attention from the delinquencies of Webster,
which instead Of wipng out, will only deepen
the stain; and instead of strengthening the po-
sltlon of Webster, will only expose his weak
ness.
But will ask the Patriot one question. Sup
pose one copy of his paper would answer the
purpose OF 65l persons, would he be satisfied
with one subscription for all, or would lie in
the Tgor Of his morality be willing to receive a
subscription from each of them? What is good
morality for printers and editors, suppose is
good for lawyers, unless there is something out
OF the covenants of grace in attacking the god :
like Daniel. We should like 10 see The editor
'oho wOuid not pocket as many subscriptions as
the lalC wOuId alLOV. A.
We did not consider the article in the Patri-
OF worthy of reply; but as our correspondent
has thought proper to notice it, we publish his
communication-agr with him, that at
tacks Oh Mr.. Ingersoll are no defence of Mr..
Webster AS documents are to condemn or to
acquit Mr.. Webster, we do not consider al ex-
animation of the character of his accuser as
pertinent to the issue. Ed. AM. REP.
