LOLA MoETEs IN CUsToDY.-The London pa

created 50 much noise on the Continent by her con
necton with the King Of Bavaria. who created
her Countess Of Landsfeldt, and was married late
ly 70 British officer Of The Life Guards, has been
arrested on charge Of bigamy. The examination
took place on the 9Th ut at the Marlborough street
Police Court, in the presence Of a great crowd
The following description is given Of her appear

with seat in front of the bar Mr. Head afso

IMPORTATION OF IRoN.-The importation Of iron
into the port of Baltimore on Saturday, the 2Sih
ult, was about 1900 tons, including 9OI tons rail-
road bars from Wales said to cost in Baltimore, in
GLIDING freight and duly the low price Of S35 per
ton. The Baltimore American computes that under
the tariff of 1912 all this iron would have been
manufactured in Maryland. Irthe American could
tell us at what rate the tariff of 1912 would have
enabled the manufacturers TO furnish this railroad
iron, we could estimate the sum that would have
been saved or Lost The State by the change in the
tariff. If the Marylanders could manufacture as
cheap and as we'll as the iron could be imported,
they ought to have the market, in spite of the
foreign article, which has contributed to the rev.
enne of the country besides. We observe it mem
toned in the New York Express, that the contract
which the Hudson River Railroad Company had
with Peter Cooper for supplying part of the rails
from Poughkeepsie to Albany has been cancelled,
the Company giving Mr.. Cooper bonus Of So, 600.
1t will be recolected that the Company contracted
for this iron at $67 so per ton, 1.-THE price which
they have paid for the iron from New York to
Poughkeepse,) but now that iron has fallen SO
much the Company have made good bargain
with Mr.. Cooper in being let off with the S54, 600
What pity that there was no law in force to keep
up the price to S67 so per ton, and make Mr..
Cooper and the Company pay it to some m ,nu-
facmrer

GARIBALDI.-The correspondent and artist of the
London Illustrated News, writing from Rome, gives
the following description Of Garibaldi and his ne
gro: 81 was fortunate enough to see Garibaldi
the day he left Rome, and had good sight of him.
l sketched him, and send you the result. l have
been very particular to get it like him. He is re-
markably quiet-looking person, but wonderfully
with red, and having green velvet collar; it had
plenty of bullet holes in it. There was no opening
visible in the garment, ] imagine he puts it on
like shirt, over his head like the poncho or South
American cloak. His trOwsers were common gray,
with green stripe, and black slouched hat and
feather complete the costume. | send you also a
portrait of Garibaldi's negro, (now dead.) He was
a fine fellow; his dress red loose coat, and a
snowy silk handkerchief tied loosely his
shoulders. The poor fellow was shot in the last
fight"

RAILROADS. IN RUssIA.-Maior Brown, of the
Erie Railroad, is appointed Engineer-in- Chief to
the Emperor Of Russia, in place of the late Col.
Whistler. The road in Russia is four hundred and
twenty miles in length, and is to be 90 constructed
as to cross il in twelve hours, most difficult feat
we think. A double FIVE feet track is TO be laid
upon an emhankment four hunded feet wide, and
over six feet above the level of the country for the
whole distance. The estimated cost is $40 OOO, 600.
Harrison, Winans & Eastwicb, of Baltimore, have
already supplied 1852 locomotives, y passenger
cars, and 25SO freight ears-aIl done in Russian
workshops. Their contract is Eve millions, and
they are 70 instruct Russian mechanics to take
charge of the engines.

The Charleston papers contain an account Of a
public meeting held in St. Peters parish of that
State, TO try the question, whether Dr. T. D. Mat
thews, of that parish, had deported himself in a
particular matter, as becomes a true South Caro-
linian. Dr. Matthews appeared, made his defence,
and was regularly acquitted by resolution, duly GER
titled by the Chairman and Secretary.
The cause of offence arose in this waV Last
year, the Rev. DR.. Brisbane, of Philadelphia, but
originally from the South, who is neaE relative of
DR.. Matthews, was a visiter in ST. Peters parish
-Four years before he had also been there, and on
his return to the North, had published articles on
the subject of slavery and South Carolina, which
are pronounced to be slanderous, and of abolition
tendency. On his second visit, the people were
offended with him for what he had published, and
for what he had avowed in conversation; and they
held an indignation meeting, at which they APP
pointed committee to wait upon him, and to warn
him to quit the State within forty-eight hours or
abide the consequences. He had, however, started
for the North the day BEFORE and has not returned
An account of this meeting, which was very of
fsnsive to the parties, was published lately in North
ern papers, and Dr. Matthews was summoned as
the author before the sOvereigns Of ST. Peters. He
appeared and explained that the article published,
Is not what he wFoie-that he sent long document
to DR.. Brisbane, with request to have it published
in one of certain papers named-that DR.. Brisbane
kept it eighteen months, altered it by striking ou
two.ihirds Of the original, and inserting his OIDH
statements, and then, without the knowledge Of
consent Of the writer caused it to be published il
the Cincinnati Globe, a free soil paper. DR.. Mat
thews accordingly pronounced Dr. Brisbane's con
duct ungentemanly, ungenerous, and unchris
tian"-dscaimsd all the sentiments in opposition
to the meeting, which had been imputed to him
These explanations were accepted as satisfactory
and DR.. Matthews was voted to be l." true to tn
South" who had been misrepFesented by DR.. B., 70
the purpose Of alternating him from his home

Mr.. Poe ON THE PoETIC PRMCPLE.-Ihe
Richmond Times of the 2lst gives the following
notice of lecture recently delivered by Edgar A.
Poe in that city; eve do not know when we
have enjoyed a more delightful evening-barring
the heat-than in listening to Mr.. Poe's lecture on
the Poetic Principle, last Friday night Mr.. Poe
set out with the somewhat novel proposition, which
he maintained with very considerable ingenuity,
that no long poem had ever been composed, or in
other words, that as soon any metTical compost
ton began to tire, it ceased to be poem, and that
a long poem was, in itself, paradox-a eOntradie-
tion in terms. The Paradise Lost, said he, is but
a succession Of brilliant poems strung together, as
gems in a circlet Mr.. Poe then considered and
cOmbatted the popular iallacy 10 which the Quar-
terly Review first gave rise-that poem must, Of
necessity, advocate some moral or religious tenet,
and entertained the audience with some striking
reflections thereupon. In passing TO an analytical
examination Of the poem proper, he pointed out the
faults which most commonly mar the finest efforts
Of genius-undue expansion or brevity-and recited
in illustration of his opinions some OF the choicest
nlOrceduE OF the nineteenth centurys world Of
song, in the productions Of Bryant, Willis, Long
fellow, Byron, Moore, TennysOn, Hood, Pinkney
and others. These reeitaIiOns were exceedingly
well received by large and appreciative audience
AT the conclusion of his lecture, in compliance
with a request, Mr. Poe recited The Raven,
that singular and vivid fantasy of his imagination.

ASTRONOMICAL Discovery Mr.. KiFkwood, of
Pottsville, Pa, has recently discovered law of
rotation among the planets determining the length
of the days in each, hich is as fixed in its rea
tons as the law of Kepler determining the length
Of the years. The series of calculations by which
he has arrived at this result, have been submitted
to the most eminent astronomers of the country,
and they are unanimous in verifying the correct
ness of the figures and the great astronomical value
of the discovery in determining the existence Of
new law in the solar system The calculations
assume as true the Nebular hypothesis of Laplace
and as that assumption harmOnises with all the
computed and observed results Of The law the effect
on the mind of the is to establish the
Nebular theory Of the construction Of the system.
