QUEER World THIs--Thc editor of the
Boston Mailhas been shown letter from CAL
ifornia, bearing some very agreeable Informs
ton. The writer--son Of the gentleman re-
ferred to-was such an incorigibly bad boy,
that the parent had to ship him off to sea in a
New Bedford whaler, over years ago. The
boy ran away from the ship at Tahiti, lived
with the natives year, then shipped in another
whaler, and one day while pursuing whale the
boat was stove and all hands perished, as was
supposed, but this young chap hung by piece
of the boat thirty hours-was picked up by a
Brazil vessel, and finally got into SLAYER, and
eventually landed and ran off at San Francisco,
about the time Of the gold discovery; went to
work, dug gold, succeeded, and after every body
at home supposed that he was dead and gone'
.turns up" with snug little fortune Of $780,.
600, and is coming home to enjoy his money
and experience.

NEwspAPERs.-W. c. Bryant, speaking Of
papers, says: sBooks are the precious metals II,
masses newspapers coin them for general f,se
pass them from hand to hand aNewspapera, :
know when a book was published but for the
friendly information of the newspaper" He
added, "that he had been sometimes tempted
to regret that the wise, witty or eloquent things
which appeared in these 'folios Of four pages,' -
as they are called by Cowper, should not be
inscribed on more durable tablets, instead OF
going the next morning to wrap up parcels or
light kitchen fires; but he was fully satisfied
with their fate, when he reflected that they had
first been read by thousands, and whatever was
good in them had passed into the general
mind"

THE PREss.-Nothing is so easy as to edit
an immoral press. Nothing less difficult than
to obtain subscribers for it. The mere dolt can
almost be witty, or rather be considered so by
the depraved, if his shafts are leyeled against
morality and religion; while all the numerous
classes ofstIse vile, dissolute and Indifferent
eagerly patronize journals of an immoral de-
scription, because, in such newspapers, some
thing may always be found to pander to a base
curiosity, or to worse feelings. There is no
duty, therefore, more imperative on the moral
portion of the community, than to sustain all
newspapers which are the friends of virtue
Much Of the demoralizatien which has Of late
years oyerrun the land, has arisen, as Dr. Wit
liams well says, from the increase of vicious
journals To stop the torrent, we must choke
up the fountain head. Every father of family
should as rigidly exclude an immoral newspa-
per from his house, and from the companion-
ship Of his children, as he would thief, a SIAN
derer, murderer. Pha Bulletin.

Fatal MIsrAKE.-A gentleman by the name
Of Hall was recently killed by the taking of
corrosive sublimate instead Of calomel. The
mistake was that Of the apothecary. We sub
join the prescription Of the physician for calo-
mel, with one for corrosive sublimate It will
be seen that there is some resemblance, bul
not enough to excusea careful man from fall
ing into such terrible error:
Prescription for Calomel Sub Muriate.
TO-" For Corrosive Sablimate. Muriate Hy-
dar. Fost"
In England, such cases are considered in the
light Of manslaughter, and in one instance there
Of very gross carelessness, resulting IN death,
an apothecary was sent to Botany Bay.

JOSEPH HuME-Thc Paris correspondent of
the Philadelphia Ledger tells the following an
ecdote:
The history of the celebrated Joseph Hume
is curious. His mother, considerably more
than half century ago, sold crockery at a
STALL A rich young peer, on drunken frolic,
ran upon her stock and broke it. Lord Pan
mure was his name. She claimed and receiv-
ed damages. "And now, my good woman, is
there anything else can do for you?" says he.
She replied she had son, sharp little fellow,
than she could give him. The peer being
pleased with the boy. sent him to an excellent
school. The boy in Parliament will have con-
tributed to upset and smash the crockery of
privilege more than any other Englshman.

The PARRor.-In small family in the south
part Of this city, there was . parrot which had
found home there for years, and had become
part Of the family. A childfwas taken sick
this spring, and was not seen by the parrot for
some days. The bird had been used to repeat
her name; and in the child's absence kept re-
peating the name SO incessantly as to annoy the
family. The child died; the repetition Of the
name was kept up, until one of the family
took the parrot to the room where the corpse
lay. The parrot turned first one side Of its
head and then the other towards the corpse,
apparently eyeing it, and was then taken back.
He never repeated the name again, was at once
silent, and the next day d.-Portsmoulh, N.
