committed upon emis rants by passenger agents,

gently loaded" mt ! he is at last induced to pur
chase ticket to Buffalo, for example and ia
provided with what processes to be sealed con-
slgnment TO an agent at that port At Buffalo this
seal7d package is oFened, and the victim learns
that his luggage is subject to heavy charges and
retained for payment
So many complaints of such shameless imposi.
Mons have been made that, al last the City Coun-
Gil OF Buffalo has taken the matter in hand. and a
resolution was offered. authorizing The Mayor to
visit Albany, or send officer thither for the pur.
pose OF breaking up The nest of rascals. We hope
that the corporation of Buffalo will not be remss
dealer. ''''''

Reversal Of a Long Sentsncs.-John Perry ba,
been pardoned out OF the Massachusetts State pri.
son, where he had been four years, having been
sentenced TOR life on conviction of breaking into
the house OF farmer in Dartmouth, being armed
with bladgeon, and committing a robbery to the
amount OF nifty dollars or more. Some time since
a convict at the prison informed the Warden and
Chaplain that Perry was innocent of the charge
Tor which he was suffering, the deed having been
committed by himself and another party. This
communication coming as it did from a con vic ted
party, was not deemed sufficient to disturb the YER
dict OF jury. 1t was not long, however, before
another party concerned in the robbery was brought
INTO the prison. He, also voluntari stated that
Ferry was innocent, and confirmed the first state
ment in every particular. The Governor and Coun

disposed to repose hm elf from the faiiaues of his
devastating labors of the last years Pompsii is

Iaoofens are Kept at work, who manage to get off
carload of earth a day from the subincumbsnt
city,. Not one half of the entire city is vet exca.

exceedingly beautiful and rich vineyard, with
houses Of peasants scattered over lis surface A
earthed which goes to confirm ne I,i,.ion tha, the
walls Of Pompeii. ''' '''' '''

Book Binding in the Oiden Time-It was not
to gold and precious stones alone that the bindings
OF books in former days indebted for their
beauty. The richest devices of the needlewoman
were often wrought on the velvet or brocade which
became more exclusively the fashionable material
for binding. This seems to have been a favorite
occupation OF the high-born danes about Eliza
beths day and, indeed, if remember the new
born passion for books which was at its height
about that time, shall not wonder at their indus
try being displayed on the covers as well as the
insides. But, unhappy, the fragility of the work
was equal to its beauty, and these needleworked
covers have, doubtless, in many instances, been
replaced by more substantial binding. Art of
Needework.

Rain! Rain! Just when our farmers were
about to give up to despair, we have been visited
by two or three refreshing rains, which we trust
have come in time to save the corn crop. From
the apprehension, which had become general, that
not more than half crop would be made, as well
as an absolute scarcity Of the article has ad-
vanced in this market to 81 10 per bushel! In
deed, every thing in the shape Of produce has been
extraordinarily and very oppressively high here for
the last ten or twelve months. We hope that the
late rains and the unusual yield of wheat this year
may bring prices down somewhat. ATHENS, Ga,

The Cotton Crcp.-The Edgefeld Is. co. Ad-
vertiser, of the Sd inst, says: In notice Of the
crops last week, we observed that cotton was very
promising. We have since learned enough to
warrant us in saying that the appearances Of fine
crop are really extraordinary. In this immediate
neighborhood, Col. F. w. Pickens and Avory
Bland, Esq. two Of the largest planters in this
section have such crops as they never had before.
The plant is at the time large and well boiled.
We hear similar accounts from all quarters.

The Costume Reform-The following appears
in the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, over the sig
nature of "One who has tried it." 1t contains
some new ideas, and its simple and unaffected style
will commend it to our lady readers:
The great bug bear in the way of adopting the
short dress and panalettes in the minds of sober
minded, modest women, is their dislike of noto-
riety. 10 be the subject Of newspaper comment
and street remark, a. one must be who appears in
public with short dress on, in the present crisis
Is sufhcient to deter most women from the move
ment In this dilemma, what is best to do? To
attempt to storm the fortress Of public opinion is
not womanly or becoming, and savors Of fanaticism
On the other hand, to adhere to our cumbersome
skirts, now that better way is opening to u.s. for
want Of courage-waiting for one another-is not
wise. think there is middle path between
these two extremes, which can recommend to nv
sisters who are DESTROYS Of reform.
