a Singular Casc.-A negro named Jo-
seph Martin was some days since arrested
in the Second Municipality on the charge
of being in the State in con,raven'ion of
law. Ii was remarked by the officers
that he appeared very intelligent and ac-
ted rather strangely, but no inquiries were
made. and he was locked UP in the usual
place for free negroes, to remain until he
could prove lis freedom. He gave no salts
factory account Of himself, aud as the arres,
Of negroes in the State in contraven'icn

tin was incarcerated with little thought as
to who he was. II subsequently came ou',
however, that notwithstanding the color OF
the individual, he was a parsonage of con-
siderable importance in his native country,
France. He left his home in cons equence
of some family difficulty and went into
voluntary exile. He has been claimed
by the French Consul as a French sub
ject, and will be sent back to France

.4mtA Visitation of Proridence.-We
record upon nnimpeaciable testimony, one
Of the most singular incidents noted in the
history of crime and punishment. On las,
Tuesday, Happy Jack, notorious char
ac,er, and - Rice, under the pretence
Of changing some money attempted to rob
a coun'ryman of twenty dollars. The al
tcmt was made on the Arkansas side, OPP
posite to this city, the parties standing
within few feet Of the river. BY agree
ment, Happy Jack quietly got into the
skiff, whilst Rice was occupying the al
tention Of the countryman. This confed-
crate, then in possession of the strangers
money. rushed down the hill to the boat,
which Happy Jack, as soon as Rice had
got in, pushed out into the stream. Rice
had fallen upon his face in tie boat the
moment he got in, and lay in that position.
A gentleman on shore called to Happy
Jack that his confederate was dead, and so
it was. The robber of his fellow man had,
in the very act of successful crime, been
called by God to his final Judgment: The
survivor, Happy Jack, alarmed aid horri-
fed, returned to the shore, and was i'm
mediately arrested.-[ Memphis Eagle.

New Lords and HaM I.a,ys

The Rev. Mr. Wiley, PRESBYTERIAN
missionary at Monterey, California, wri-
ting to the Congregational journal, under
date Of August 24th, relates the follow
ing:
a few weeks ago was requested BY
an officer Of our army to marry him to a
young lady of California, she being Cath
ollie, While he was true son OF Profess
tan, New England. OF course | had no
reason to refuse, any more than should
have had in New Hampshire, for either
there or here it would be no part of NV
business to inquire into the faith of the
| parties. When it was known tina, the
marriage was to take place, the Alcalde
came TO me i'll very genteman|y way.
saying that he did not speak as Judge in
the matter, but before married the conp1e
he wished me to be aware Of the re,non-
>ibllity was taking, aud at the same time
showed me an order issued by Gov. Mas
son, prohibiting any one 10 marry but a
priest, and iorbidding marriage between
Catholics and ProtestautS.
lhis however, was merely military
order, issued during the war, and ceased
TO be OF lorce when the Constitution Of the
United States was extended over this
country. That Constitution Of course re-
peals all laws Inconsistent with its, II. and
such laws as restrict marriage in this way
are Of that kind. This being explained

marriage took place was considered the

mothers declared they would sooner bury
iheir children than see them marry so,
And what should be done with the unlaith-
i"i daughter of the CAarch that had wan
dcrcd! Some decrcei one punishment,
and some another and for some time il
was thought she would tie publicly ex-

priests met III con>ultation on the affair.

INFORM him that he had nothing 10 do with
it.
~ long paper, purporting TO be kind
OF permit, was then given to Capt.
as the easiest way OF getting round the
matter. But this the Captain and hl, wife
refused to accept, or have anything 10 do
with.
Then the priest told the lady, if she
world repent of having broken the rules
OF the Church, he would pardon her. She
need nc, say she repcnted of having been
married "a she was; but only, that she
had broken The rules of her church. -
"Now," said Capt., "vou may talk

like, but You know too much to do it to
me or my wife; we will have nothing o do

We learn trnm the Cincinnati papers
that there are upwards of thirty large es-
Establishments in that city employed in the
manufacture Of lard OIL, which is accom-
plisiled by divesting the lard of one OF its
constituent parts-stearine. The largest
OF these, whose operations are probably
more extensive than any other in the Uni
ted States, has manufactured heretofore
into lard oil and stearine lao, ,OOO pounds
monthly, all the year ronni, and the great
increase Of hogs, for the present season.
will probably enlarge that business this
year fifty per cent. II is calculated that
ii .O0O, 900 pounds OF lard will be run in
TO lard oil this year, two-sevenths OF which
aggregate will make S,earine, the residue
oil, say about 1900 barrels Of ~ gallons
each. Much the larger slare of this is Of
inferior lard, made OF mast fed and still fed
hogs, the material, to a great extent, COM
ing from distance-hence the poor quail
ity of western lard oil. Lard oil, besides
being sold for what i, actually Is, is also
used for adulturating sperm oil, and in
France serves TO materially reduce the
cost OF olive oil, the skill of the French
chemists enabling them TO incorporate
from sixty 10 seventy per cent. OF lard oil
with that Of the olive. There is also an
establishment in titat city which, besides
putting up hams, &c., is extensively en-
gagged in extracting the grease from the
rest Of the hog, and will probably this
year operate in this way or ,OOO hogs.
Ii has seven large circular tanks, six Of
capacity TO hold each $4,000 pounds, and
one 5000 pounds. These receive the
entire carca>>es, with the exception of the
hams, and the mass is subjected 10 steam
process, under pressure Of 20 pounds to
the square inch, the effect of which opera
ton is to reduce the whole to one con-
si>tence, and every bone 10 powder. The
fat is drawn of 10y COCKS, and the resi-
away for manure. Besides the hogs
which reach this factory in entire carcass
ses, the great mass Of heads, ribs, back
bones, tail-pieces, feet, aud other trim
minss Of the hogs cut up at different pork
houses, are subject to the same process,
in order to extrac, every particle Of grease.
This concern alone is expected toturn out
this season B 600 900 pounds of lard, five
sixths which is No. l. Six hundred hogs
daily pass through these tanks one day
with another.
The stearine expressed from the lard is
used to make candles by being subjected
to hydraulic pressure, by which three
eish,hs Of it is discharged as an impure
oleine this last is employed in the manu-
Iacture of soap; 100000 pounds of
s,earine have been made in one year in
candles and soap in these factories, and
they can make 5000 pounds of candles
per average a day throushont the year.
