humbug in the afternoon went to cock

evening the theater was open, and of course
the crowd attended. Money is their idol.
Three years ago, you could hire native
all day for Is cents, now you must give
him a dime to smile the migger-pertume on
you as he passes, and everything else in the
same ratio. The place is very dilapidated
and is constantly creeping down. The
situation of the place makes me think of
Newport. Yesterday | saw two natives
shot-they being a part of the gang en-
gagged in the murder and robbery of man,
his wife and children, that took place last
April. The Governor had put off their
execution from time to time, intending to
let them 90 uninjured when he could do
so with safety to himself But there are
some five or six hundred Anne ricans here
who were getting rather impatient, and
talked of taking the matter into their own
hands. So the Governor, to save his own
credit and also to save the place, (for there
are americans enough mere to take the
place and to hold it ; and it is hard to tell
where mob would end here, thought it
best to shoot them, as he saw no other
way of safety.

Nfs- Andrew Jackson Davis, the Poughkeep-
sia seer, has broached theory which we think
must be new ; at all events it is so to us. He
claims that boards and bushes are one and the
same thing, differently devcloped-thus the
hairs of the beard are combinations Of merDes,
which, in men, come to the surface-in ,conien,
thev are Juried in the cheeks, and have much
to do in controlling the phenomenon of dfush-
ing This is part of an argument in favor OF
the wearing of boards, which Mr.. d. publishes in
the Hartford Times He says, also, that the
uaustache is connected ,cih the membranes Of
the eye, and the shaving of it is productive OF
the diseases of that organ. 1t must be the
sympathy existing in these nerves which causes
many young ladies to set their faces so resolute-
IL against whiskers.

To MY Wife.

The autumn winds are signing, love,
With melancholy sound;
The yellow leaves are lying, love,
Upon the frozen ground;
The frost has nipped the pretty flowers,
And robbed them of their bloom;
But in this little cot of ours
Shall enter naught Of gloom.
The sky is darkly bending, love,
For clouds its face o'ercast;
The rain is fast descending, love,
And fiercer howls the blast;
But oar fire blazes cheerily,
In spite of wind and storm,
And, though Nature looks so drearily,
Here all is close and warm.
Our little babes are sleeping, love,
Upon their little beds,
And angels watch are keeping, love,
Above their guileless heads;
Then let us kneel in fervent prayer,
And lift our hearts above,
And thank God for his holy care,
And his redeeHling love.

Jzis-The Alta California gives the intelligence
that vessyl had arrived at San Francisco,
which was on the 3lst Of August boarded by
the whale ship John Wells, of New Bedford,
Captain Cross, who reports the following vessels
as being totally lost this season Ajax, Of
Havre Aramatta, of New London; Arrabelll b.,
of New Bedford; New Bedford, of New Bedford !;
America, of New Bedford Cosmopolite, OF
France; Mary Mitchell, of San Francisco. 1t
appears that the whole whaling feet had win
tered in the Gulf of Anadir, in the northern
part of the sea of Kamschatka in Russia in Asia,
and, on the coming ON of Spring, had set sail
for Bhcring's Straits but in attempting to pass
through into the Arctic Ocean, the fleet was
environed by ice, and the above named vessels
were totally wrecked. The crews of the de-
stroyed vessels are reported to have reached
the main land in safety; but it is said that in
some disturbance afterward with the natives,
eleven of the whalemen lost their lives. 1t was
supposed that some sixty more vessels had shar-
ed the fate Of those mentioned above; and it was
quite impossible to tell how many more would
be likely to be lost in their attempts to escape
from the ice. The general result ofthis seasons
whale fishing is set down as q total failure.

Childhood.

1t is pleasant to look back upon the
days Of childhood and call up, one after
another, as they may rccur to our minds,
the many pleasant and happy scenes in
which we have participated-scenos which
are ever remembered with pleasure. AL
though our earlier days of recollection may
seem, as they come family up before us,
almost like dream, yet there are many
bright spots in them-many little incidents
which, though they may be trivial in their
nature, have left impressions upon our
minds that time can never e6ace. Who
does not remember with pleasure the sports
of his childhood and the companions, the
brothers, the sisters, or, perhaps, the mo-
ther, with whom he enjoyed them? AL
though at times there may have been little
differences, and perhaps little quarrels.
yet they lasted but for moment, and
were settled and forgotten in love. Those
were the happiest days of our lives, thougl
we knew it not, Sr then we thought
when we had grown old enough to share
the pleasures and amusements of tht
world, our enjoyment would be perfect
alas it is not SO, for happiness is alway.

lefs~ A patent has been taken out by Mr..
Seawall, of New London, Conn, for new
method of constructing window sashes, and fix
ing the glass therein without putty. Hereto
fore, when a pane of glass became broken, a
glazier was Immediately summoned, who, in re-
moving the hard putty, frequently damaged the
properties of the sash ; but by this new arrange
ment, any one can remove the broken pane OF
glass, and replace it with whole one, by merely
small screw inside the sash, which,
when unloosed, detaches the bars of the sash,
which hold the glass against small strips of pre-
pared India rubber. As a sash constructed on
this plan is subject to no chisellng by the putty
knife, it may remain permanent fixture for
years, and may be more highly ornamented.
This invention Will prove highly advantag-
eous in the construction of hot-houscs, light
houses, sc.
