The following bit of fun we find in the last U $. Gazette
 The London papers mention the death tin that city) of lad named Paul Dombcy, son of the senior partner Of the long established house Of "Dombey & Son.' The fad was of feeble physical constitution, and was a sufferer from his birth He was remarkable for mental development, and had attracted considerable attention. Apprehensionsa are ea- teriained that the lad was disposed of sum- marily, with some ulierior views. Suspic- ions have fallen upon one Dickens, whose friends. however, say that if he the accused dId use any violence towards the remarkable child. il must have been in self-tefeuce, as Il had been evident for month past that fl Dickens did not kill littIe Dombey, little Dombey would kiA Dickens.

The Maid of Athens, so poeacalls made famous by Lord Byron. Is thus deseiihed in prose by the Athens correspondent, of the Boston Atlas:
 There met Mir. Black, who manied tue Maid of Athens He is professor of Flu glish a, the Gymnasium, and occasionally corresponds with the London papers, fur nishing a sensible, well written le,ier-- abused him, and rather conveyed the idea that Theresa was an unhappy wife, bu, from what have seen of him, l can but feel disposed to take up the opposite side of the question. Though not handsome, he IS as good looking specimen of Humanity as one commonly meets with, conyerses with ease, and is well informed, particularly on all home subjects She is ugly, ignorant, and had no, Byron drawn inspiration from the wells of her heart, would never have altrac- ted notice any where. Really, l pity Mir Black. or any other intelligent, man with such wife, bus understand that he is the kindest of husbands, and that their life is most unPoehcally happy.

The candidate of the wings, las believe they have
found at last,) Mr. John Phipot of Baltimore coun-
ty of the most vrulent wings in the State has pub
lished address the voters of the third district in
which he modestly asks them discard Mr. Lyon from
their confidence and elect himself in his stead Verify
the third district would be eternay dsgraced ii such

he wishes to make of General Tayor's potent name

OF the old hero know their drift TOO well to be humbug-

TIE charge that Mr. Lyon voted to censure Gen.
Taylor incorrect Previous to the vote in question, his
name stands recorded twce the journal OF the house,
in voting thanks to General Taylor for military services
That resolution introduced for political purposes by
wing, and required general endorsement OF the affair

the resolutions, with the amendment added There was
not democratic member IN the House that in reality
wished TO censufe Cen Taylor; and the resolutions, as
passed, conferred deserved honor him. and awarded to
nm a gold medal by way of distinction. Mr. Lyon, in
lac voted IN favor OF every resolution OF thanks offered
anu as the wings had taken Gen. L. under their parcu-
lar charge they very prose their favors The
charge IS then, all wing trick-periect moonshinean
no sensible man can believe for moment that Mr..
Lyon mas not more respect for Gen Taylos character
than ever Mr. John Phipot had
appears also that Mr.. Lyon is to be denounced be-
cause he voted for tariff duty tea and coffee 1t is

tariff OF 1876 has saved immensely the people; and
