PROPER TINE FOR SLAUGHTERING
ANIMALs.-ll has lately been discover
ed by French chemist that the flesh of
animals, which are killed in the latter
part of The night. will keep much lon,
ger without sailing, than il will when
killed in the day time. This proves
that the flesh is better fitted for keep
ing, when the life and blood are taken
from the animal, at the time the tenn.
peraturc is the lowest, and the respira-
ton is the least active. Hence the
reason that the flesh from animals that
have been highly heated, or hard dri.
ven, will scarcely keep at all.
At recent discussion ofsome points
in Biblical history, il happened TO be re.
marked that there was no account of
the death of Eve.
Nor of Adam either" said one of the
company.
Il beg your pardon, sir" replied re-
I!gious lady, who began to think there
was too much of scepticism in these re-
marks, "Ifyou read yor Bible carefully,
you will find that Adam was gathered
to his forefathers."

The Weak Administration"

The efforts of the whig press, in their despo-
Of the utter hopelcssness of the present aspect
of their affairs by such startling announcements
as that "niomentous periods are approaching"
and attributing the result to the slavery agita-
ton, are futile and shallow in the extreme
The slavery excitement originated in and is
confined principally to Congress, and the inef
fciency and weakness of the administration is
developed by it, and its unpopularisy may be
traced to this rather than to the slavery agita-
tion," as our ncishbors of the Tribune would
make it appear. ~E'sa. 80 a.-. -r-.-
The old defunes Tariff ghost is also "dug up
again as a escape goat upon which to cast

lating so thick and fast, ard which seem des-
tined to sweep away every vestige of whiggery
with the strong tide of floating rubbish" so
recently set in motion by the .fresh-et admins
ration.
If the evil is traceable to the "ruinous Tariff
of 1916" why did not the wing party discover
the operation of tho Tariff in lS4s, and make it
an issue IN the presloehtiai "hP"Sh "a 'ha'

self on the platform of protection to home in
dustry," and make it the great issue in the last
strife for power, if, as our Tribune contem-
porary would have US believe, it is the great
evil, to which all the minor evils are traceable !:
Repudiated by the people and deserted by
the great lights Of tie party, the administra-
ton is indeed weak-but the most cutting con-
duct of all must be that of Mr.. Bulwer, the
British Minister, in the following letter to Mr..
Chatfeld. In less than two months residence
in Washington, Mr.. Bulwer discovered the
weakness of the administration, and we sub

That great efforts have been made to produce

HEARr-RENDING ACCIDENT A young man
named Titcomb was shot dead at Dunn's Cor
ner North Yarmouth, on Tuesday afternoon,
by his own brother. The two had gone to the
upper story of the building for the purpose o:
laying some article away. While there one of
them took up gun, not supposing it was load
ed, and spoke in bantering way about his
skill at shooting; at the same time he levelled
it at the other, when it went off and shot him
through the heart, killing him instantly.
This is another to be added to the long list
of accidents cared by the foolish practice of
aiming firearms at friend or companion in
sport. We never witnessed such kind of sport
without feeling an involuntary inclination to
catch at brickbat to hurl at the numskulrs
head. Such foolhardincss cannot be too strong
