DURABILITY OF HUMAN LIFE.--An able wri-
ter in Chambers Edngburg Journal, on the
natural decay of the human frame, arrives at
the conclusion that the average of human
life has much increased in modern times; in
proof of which he quotes the following para
graph:
"In the time of the Romans, the expectancy
Of human life was not more than 25 years pur-
chase Great changes have since occurred.
The Geneva tables show that from 1850 to
1900 the mean duration of life in that town was
81 wears and half In 1892, it was as years
and 30 days At Paris, among the classes in
easy circumstances, the mean duration Of life il

Of Mr. Finlayson it is now 80 years; 40 that
the expectancy Of life, the number Of years
which child may expect to attain, is double
what IT was at the commencement Of the chris
tian era.

ARRIVAL OF THE AMERICAN FRrcATE ST.
MISUNDERSTANDING Thursday, March
l3.-The United States frigate St Lawrence,

about o'clock this afternoon, after passage
of % days from New York She is the bearer
Of the long expected freight of American contri-
button to the Great Exhibition of 1851 in Hyde
park The St Lawrence has anchored in Cowes
roads for the night and will probably come up
to Southampton tomorrow, when she will cx-
change salutes with the town and immediately
commence dischargng the articles intended for
the transmission to London. We understand
that she brings much larger quantity than was
at first expected, there being upwards of 500 ex-
hibitors in all and there are between 1000 and
1000 packages, extending to total of nearly
1000 tons Of general products ofindustry, many
ofwhich are Of great interest and Of considerable
value.

the Legislative mechanism Of the omnibus bills
have developed its monstrous injustice--its
sweeping sacrifice Of the rights Of one section,
and its wholesome surrender Of everything val
liable in dispute to the capacious and varacous
NAV of the other. Another important fact
breaks on the Southern mind. 1t is that all
these sacrifices by The South cere gratuious and

| CORRUPTION IN The NEw YoRK LxoisL AruRr. =
Considerable excitement has been created in AL
bany by the discovery of some apparently sue
cessiu attempt TO corrupt members Of the State
Senate. The facts are as follows:
| II seems that very stringent bill for the snn
preston of gambling was before the Senate and
! IN the hands of a committee. Mr.. George w.
Bull, sergeant-at-arms of the Senate, undertook.
according to certain documents made public bv
Mike Walsh, to have this bill defeated, expecting
to be paid for his trouble by the propristors of
certain gambling houses in New York, whose
business would be injured by the new law. He
Is said to have received several large sums from
various members Of the gambling profession, but
one person on whom he depended for aid-Mr.
Samuel A. Suydam-refused to go into the busi-
ness, and divuiged the whole matter
From the letters published Mr.. Bull appears to
have operated with some effect on the members Of
the Senate committee These names are C.. D.
Robinson s. FL. johnson and A. c.. Stone. The
matter was brought before the governor and the
enate, and the matter was talked over by the lat
ter body, yesterday, with closed DOORS The men,
bers of the committee are said to have each made
explanations, but their nature has not transpired.
Finally, select committee consisting Of Messrs
Mann, Of Utica, Dimmick, Of Broome, and Nor
gan, OF New York, was appointed, with power to
send for persons and papers. The sergeant-at-
arms, Mr. Bull, got wind Of the exposure and dis
appeared suddenly, before he could be taken. It

The mails by the steamer Canada were re-
ceived this morning Our London papers are
of the l4th of March and Liverpool Of the 18th.
We are informed that large portion of the
newspaper mail intended for the South did not
roach the depot in Boston in season to be for
warded by the mail of last evening. Owing to
a very strong wind, the ship did not reach her
dock at South Boston until late in the after
noon. A small steamer went alongside of the
Canada, and took off the letter mail and n por-
ton of the passengers; both reached this city
this morning. The bags of newspapers, &C..
will probably arrive this afternoon by the New

Ih.vs been weary Of the earth-fof Time
Has passed with blight and sorrow over me,
And in his steps came moaning misery;
And have woven in my grief, sad rhyme,
Drawing my thoughts out from their dark abyme,
The heart, until they startled me. had
No friend to lean on-I was all alone
A stranger and Wanderers sad
And lonely man The multitude passed on,
And did scorn them with wild and mad
And burning scorn-and now, how changed am l
The fond expression Of one lovely eye,
The pure devotedness of one dear heart,
Have wrought great changes with their mighty
art.
Mary, how proud am Of thee How proud,
That could win the love of thy pure heart !
Oh, am rough and rude-I have no art,
To gain affection and my feelings crowd
Around my heart but never to my tongue
And yet thou lowest me. Like some bright star,
Parting the night, thou hast dispeled the throng
Ofcars and sorrows: and live among
New, brighter, better thoughts-which ever are
Ofthee, thy beuty, thy devotedness,
Thy guileless heart--than which no richer gift
Had ever man his toll of life to bless.
To thee, as to a star, mine eyes lift,
And no more, cheerless, on lifs's waves | drift.

BRITISH PARLIAMENT.


In the house Of commons on the evening of
Friday, the l4th, Sir G. Grey gave notice that
on the ecclesiastical titles, bills being read the
second time, he should, in committee, propose
the introduction of clause to the effect that the
act should not be made to extend or apply to
tie assumption or use, by the bishops of the
Episcopal Church of Scotland, of any name,
Styles or titles to which they were now entitled
but that nothing in the act should be taken to
give any right to Scotch bishops to assume any
name style, or title to which they were not enti-
tied by law.
Lord Palmerston, in answer to question
from Mr. Urquhart said that the evacuation of
the Danubian provinces by Russian troops had
been ordered, and would very shortly take place.
In reply to Mr.. Plumtree, Lord J. Russell said
that if the debate upon the ecclesiastical titles
assumption bill was not concluded this evening,
he proposed to proceed again with it on Monday
next He might take the opportunity of stat
ing the course he intended to take with regard
to the financial measures of the year.
As ccnsure was impending over the head of
the government, he did not think it would be
right to propose the financial arrangements of
the year until that question had been decided
He should therefore move that the financial state
ment be postponed from Friday next till after
this question had been disposed Of
Mr.. H. Moore complained of the delay Of
public business which this course would pro-
duce, and intimated that he should propose pro-
cecding with the papal aggression bill
Upon the order of the day being read for the
second reading Of the ecclesiastical titles bill.
The Earl of Arundel, in moving as an amend
ment that the bill be read that day six months
denied that there was any reason for complain
ing of the presumption of the Papal See in maxi
ing the late arrangements without the perms
sion of the British povernment.-The conduct
and expressed opinions of Lord John Russell
induced the Pope to believe that no objection
would be made by the British government to
the establishment of the herarcy.
He vindicated the use Of the word "govern"
in the pastoral, in the Interpretation which he
would put on it. and entreated the government
of England not to revive an intolerance which
WAS now unknown in the other countries Of
Europe.
After speeches from several members, in
cludng Sir Robert Peel, who made his maiden
speech in st. Stephens, and was warmly re-
ceived the motion was adjourned, on the motion
of Mr.. Moore, until Monday.

Much uneasiness is felt among the foreign CON-
missioners in regard to the want Of protection
from invasion of patent rights, which will be felt
the moment those rights nre upon English soil
The subject has been up before Parliament and
at meeting of the commissioners, this evening,
it has been agreed to petition, in behalf of all the
foreign nations represented, that bill protecting
foreign patents may be passed at once. Then
too, it is said, that the jures Of awards are un-
fairly constituted, too great proportion of the
members being Enqishmcn. | think there is
good reason for feeling that this is 40, though
have little doubt that the evil vii! be remedied
by the Royal committee, when it is fairly stated
to them.
! Russia is here in fuller force than she pro-
missed, and her Nicholas il TO be one Of the lions
of the summer. France has a staff of distin-
gushed sapans to represent her interests. Tur-
key is here in her turban and Algeria in her
modernzed capolet Spain has her comm r.
sloner IN one of the best mansions in Pic

mark, Greece, and even Egypt, have each dis

Italian States, so has Norway, 80 has Sweden,
and to the astonsbment of every one so has
Brazil. In all this competition of the world up
on single PLATFORM, citizen of the United
States cannot but feel some solicitude for the
honor of his country. In relation to this hear
but one wish among Americans here, and that
is that Congress has not failed TO make some
appropriation to meet the necessary expenses OF

side by side with other nations, we make no beg

small sum.
