e THOMAS BUCHANAN READ, the Poet and
Painter who has been residing in Cincinnati the
past Winter, is now in this City. He leaves about
the first of June for Europe intending to spend
year abroad, partly for the sake Of his health and
partly in the exercise Of one of his arts, though
the other will hardly slumber after he has reached
Italy.
"CUr BEHIND !"-This exclamation, familiar to
the ears of all who ride in stages, will soon become
obsolete. There has been, for some time past,
conspiracy among the proprietors Of stage lines to
prevent boys from riding on the steps, but all me-
thods hitherto tried have failed The imps, whose
sole object in their free trips was TO provoke the dr.
vers, rW hang on, wherever there is resting place
for the sole of their feet. We were shown yester-
day, however, the model of stage on which they
can no more hang than shad can climb smooth
barked spple-tree. There is no step, except when
the door opens. The step is under the stage, and
is thrust out by the act of opening the door. The
pressure of the drivers foot upon spring closes
the door and pulls back the STEP so that the rear Of
the stage presents perpendicular line, ON which
ton should be adopted by the stage lines the boys
will no doubt call grand Indignation meeting
~ Mr.. Robinson, at whose store we stated
some stolen goods had been found, says that it is
a mstake-that the goods were found at another
store. We believe the paragraph did not imply
knowledge Of the goods being stolen on the part Of
the owner Of the store.
A DANGEROUS PoLE.--A correspondent writes

FIREs-At o'clock Wednesday morning, the
dwelling of John O'Donnell, in Hudson-st.
near Horatio was slightly damaged by fire.
AT IL o'clock Wednesday morning the house of
Michael Rowntree, 392 West st. was discovered
to be on fire. The fire was got under before much
damage was done.
At 81 o'clock A. NJ. yesterday fire was discovered
in the thread, needle and fancy store of Mrs. Rob
inson, No. 534 Grandst near the intersection
of Henry.st. The whole Of the stock and fixtures
were destroyed, and the building was much injur-
ed. The loss is not estimated it may be $1,000
or over. We believe there was no insurance.
THOSE CoCKRoAcHEs
Mr.. EDITOR: A correspondent in The Tribune
ridicules the Magnetic Powders and their effect on
cockroaches. 1t frequently happens that phloso'
piers come to Lyons Depot and sit down to have
properly explained to them, for the fftieth time,
how the Powder is to be usedl' Frequently it
happens that they have objections and doubts
"Tbey do not see why the Powders should be
thrown so that the dust hies-why they would not
do as well when put down on a plate y they do
not understand why it should be used dry" "why
should it not do as well when wet" etc. etc. l
have no doubt the Brooklyner who found his cock
reaches refractory of those who do not see
why they should MT have their own way in using
the Powder. Hundreds, thousands, and hundreds
of thousands have tried these Powders, and come
again and bring their friends, 10 whom they declare
they were astonished at the wonderful effect pro
duced within few minutes after the application.
If the disappointed philosopher who does not
