GEN. CAss's WAR SERvIcEs.-The Pittsburgh
American says: when the gallant Col. Cass
was told that he was included in the surrender
of Hull he bravely broke his sword. This was
the wisesi thing he ever did. 1t gave him the
reputation of martyr without any pain of suf-
fering or danger of fire so long as the war lasted
II he was called upon to join the army, his an
swer was furnished ready to his hand. 81 am
prisoner of war" II asked to obtain an ex
change from among the many prisoners in ou
hands his reply was no less ready. "What i
the use? My sword is broken" The surren
der of Hull not only made his fortune, blu
kept him with whole skin throughout tn
three years and more of the war. Our wonder
ment is, that he was not thought of for Lieut.
General when that office was carpet making

The CnoLRRA-According to the last ac-
counts from Europe, the Cholera has broken

merchant ships have suffered severely. At
Has Keui (Turkey) the mortality has been so
great that several Jewish families of the vii.

themselves in the plains of Kat Hane and
Ali Bey Keut. II appears that during the
last year 800, 900 persons had been attacked
and about 100000 had persisted in Russia.
In certain towns in Russia, comprising pop

THE KINGS OF THE EARTH GROWING CIV

THE KINGS OF THE EARTH GROWING CIV
1.-the kings Of the earth are growing prodi
siousIy civil, polite and yielding. The &C.
commoda,ing coon that only wanted to be
convinced that it was really Capt. Scott, TO
come down from tree, was mere caution
in civilily to the monarchs OF Europe, who
for wears past have been grinning defiance al
the people from their exalted eminence.-
The great King of Austria with his army OF
200, 900 armed men, knocks under to mere
.mob" Of school boys and bloused laborers,
who throng the streets of Vienna, and in de-
ference 10 their wishes sends away by night
that wise old owl, Prince Metternich, with
out even change Of linen.
Frederic William of Prussia, genial, lib
eral well fed old coon, is disturbed over The
tenth bottle Of Rudesheimer by great out
cry in the streets of Berlin. "Vat dues they
vani," he hiccups to the water. "They want
freedom of the press, q convocation of the
Diet, and liberal suffrage" ale, them
have them ALL" responds the obliging mon
arch, who returns again to his never-failing
solace.
Bang! Bang Drum! Drum! Rattle! rattle!
whats all that luss," again exclaims the
genial monarch. The soldiers have fred
upon the people and killed many Of them.-
"Oh, very bad; let us 60 out and shed some
tears over the dead" Accordingly the easy
King goes forth and walls hideously over the
dead bodies of the slain-says his soldiers
have made great mistake, and he will give
the people every thing they want. But the
Pruss,an and Austrian monarchs can't hold
a candle in point of civility and politeness to
Leopold of Belgium. When the enlighten-
ed king heard of the French Revolution, he
told his Ministers to inform the people, in the
language Of Peter Brush the seedy states
man, mnisterialized by the Charcoal Sketch
es of Joseph G. Neal, ''lhat he wasn't no.

was ready to sink into his original insignii-

KEEPING PossEssIoN.--A correspondent OF
the New Orleans Crescent, at the city of Next
co, says:
Perhaps you are not aware, that notwithstand-
ing all treaties, there are some Americans here
who intend to remain. An old backwoods-
man once made speech of this kind TO me /:
I've not much book farming, but have lived
some years and noticed this much, that our Peo-
pie have never put foot on any soil that they
ever yet have left.
Let peace be made and you will soon hear
that Vera Cruz, Orizaba. and the country around
are held BY Americans.
More OF this in my next. For the present,
rest assured thsta most formidable plan is
in agitation to hold on TO the State OF Vera
Cruz

IMPORTANT SUR AS TO DIvoRcE-A case has
been entered we understand in one of our
Courts, says the N. Y. Express, having for lis
object to dispossess lady and her six chill
dren of an estate worth at least 500, 900 left
BY her last husband, the father of .he chill
dren.
The claim is made by the son ola former wife
Of deceased, whose mother obtained divorce
from his father several years ago-and he now
claims to be the sole heron the ground that
his father not being authorized to marry again
the second marriage was void, and that the la
dy now in possession of the estate, and heI
children, have no legal interest in it whatever
The case, we understand, is a peculiarly hard
one to the second wife and her children, the
latter of whom have been educated. and hav-
ing looked forward 10 an abundance while
their father lived and an inheritance in the es-
tate on his death, have not prepared themselves
by any avocation 10 obtain livelihood. 1t il
said the second wife heard of the divorce pre-
vlous to her marriage, but supposed 1T was in
favor OF her husband, and that her marriage
was perfectly binding and legal. As
the law of divorce separates the parties, and
provides no penalty if the defendant marry
again, question will arise probably, as to the
strength of the law in pronouncing the second
marriage illegal, and furnishing the wife, (who
was married in due form, according TO law )and
her children, by taking from them every dollar
they possess. and which has been earned, we
understand. mostly during the second mar
riage.
Thisis an interestiuGcase but we do not think
the decision doubtful. The court must decide
in favor of the validity Of the second marriage
for the sake of public morals. The law will
never bastardize children, when it can be avoid

PROBABLE SUIcIDE.-A young man cal
ling himself Peter Calagus, took passage
on the steamer Phoenix at Evansville, Ind =.
for this city. Shortly after getting on board
il was discovered that he was laboring under
an alienation of mind. Two stout Irishmen
were detailed to take care of and prevent
him from jumping overheard, he having
made several attempts 10 destroy himself by
this means. On Friday morning last he was
missing, and it was generally believed that
during the night he had thrown himself into
the river and found watery grave. Late
in tile day, however, his body was found w.
ing across beam of wood in the hold of The
boat, dreadlulIy mangled, having no doubt
been caught between the pitman shaft and
wheel, where he was crushed to DEATH

NEWSPAPER PATRoNAGE.-This thing call,

Ii is composed Of as many colors as a rain

pays in advance-he goes home reads il

that il is his own. He hands in an advertise.

is Newspaper patronage.
