BURNING OF THE CApIToL In ALABA

BURNING OF THE CAPITOL In ALABAMA.
From the Montgomery Advertiser and
Gazette we learn that the State capitol
in that city was consumed by fire on the
18th inst, and nought is left of that once
beautiful building but the crumbling
walls. Every possible provision was to
be Immediately made for the convenience
of the Legislature and State officers
The clerks of the two Houses saved all
their papers; and the archives of the State
in the Offices of the Governor, Secretary
of State, Treasurer, and Comptroller
were also saved. Most all the furniture
and the larger portion OF the different H.
braries were likewise preserved from the
flames, so that the great loss is the bull
ding. The State House at Montgomery
was beautiful edifice, built in lS47, and
has never been occupied only once by
the Legislature. previous to this season.
II was erected by the citizens of Mont
gomery, at their own expense, and pre-
senied to the State, in consideration of
the removal of the seat of government
to their city from Tuscaloosa. There
was good deal of difficulty in obtain
ing the location even on those terms, and
it is TO be apprehended that the loss OF
the State House may effect another re-
moval TO some other spot.

SINGULAR INCIDENT IN A MAD HoUsl

SINGULAR INCIDENT IN A MAD HOUSE.
Some months since, an incident occur
red in our city Lunatic Hospital, of a
very peculiar character. A mother and
daughter both became inmates. and were
placed in the same story of the building,
where they had access TO the same hall.
They met, and recognized each other,
though one had left the other years ago,
in Ireland. Both had crossed the ocean,
become residents here, and lost all knowl-
edge of the others history or fate; both
became bereit of reason, and came upon
the public for support, and in a mad
house, surrounded by those who were
hopelessly insane, the child aud parent
met, and though reason was dethroned,
and each was there with '.mind diseas-
ed" yet nature triumphed over the cloud
ed intellect, and, for brief moment, the
parties talked of the land of their birth,
and when they had separated from each
other. This incident is of romantic in.
terest, sufficient to suit the most anx.
ious inquirer after exiraordinay adven-
,urcs.-Bos. Herald.

TANNING FRAcTlous HuRsE.--The
very widest of the most incorrigible oil
bad horses, was suddenly tanned in Bos-
ton the other day, by simply taking a
cord about the size OF common bed
cord, putting it in the mouth of the
horse like bit, and tying it tightly on
the top of the animals head, passing his
left ear under the string, not painfully
tight, but tight enough to keep the cord
in its place. The horse obeyed, per-
feclly subdued, and as gentle and obedi-
ent as well trained dog. This is worth
knowing.

The circumstances which induced th
writing Of the following touching an,
thrilling lines are as follows. A young
lady of New York was in the habit o
writing for Philadelphia paper on tn,
subject Of Temperance. Her writing
was SO full of pathos, and evinced sucI
deep emotion of soul, that friend o
hers accused her of being maniac or
the subject of Temperance. whereupol
she wrote the following lines:
Go feel what have felt,
Go bear what have borne
Sink meath the blow by father dealt,
And the cold worlds proud scorn
Then suffer on from year to year
Thy sole relief the scaldng tear.
Go, kneel where have knelt,
Implore beseech, and pray
Strive besotted heart to melt,
The downward course to stay;
Be dashed with bitter curse aside,
Your prayers burlesqued, your tears defed
Go, weep as have wept
Ger loved fathers fall
See every promised blessing swept
Youths sweetness turned to gall
Life's fading flowers strewed all the way,
That brought me up to woman's day.
Go, see what have seen;
Behold the strong man bow,
With crashing teeth-lips bathedin blood
And cold the livid brow;
Go, catch his withered glance, and see
There mirror'd his souls misery.
Go to thy mothers side,
And her crush'd bosom cheer;
Thine own deep anguish hide
Wipe from her cheek the bitter tear,
Mark her worn frame, and withered brow,
The gray that streaks her dark hail now,
With fading frame, and trembling limb
And trace the ruin back to him
Whose plighted faith, in early youth,
Promised eternal love and truth,
But who, foresworn, hath yielded up
That promise to the cursed cup,
And led her down, through love and light,
And all that made her prospects bright,
And chain'd her there, mid want and strife
That lowly thing-a drunkard's wife!
And stamp'd on childhood's brow SO mild,
That whitening blight--thc drunkard's child
Go--hear, and feel, and see, and know,
All that MY SOUL hath felt and known,
Then look upon the wine cups glow
Seeif its beauty can atone
Think of its flavor you will try
When all proclaim, otis drink and die"
Tell me HATE the bowl
