SEVEN DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE.

The British Steamer Canada arrived at Halifax
on the 81 inst, with news seven d1Y> later from
Europe. She brings no tiding> u the Atlantic,
which is now generally supposed TO be lost. Tor
news from England is without interest, and that
from France is scarcely less 50. NnP7"on IS
said to have triumphed over Gen. thnIarmor
and the National Assembly IN their late dIihcul-
ties. Whilst Lamarine is defending the Pres,-
dent the Assembly has no confidence in the
new Ministry. We have news from Germany
to the effect that the lI1lseiners have mnde an
unconditional surrender 10 the King of Denmark
and that the army has been dnbanded. The
markets are without much alterat n except that
Cotton has declined from haH TO one cent, and
Indian Corn about y cents per quarter The
money market is without change, and yet change
seems to be plentiful.

, Advertising WIFE.--J. F. Wood.
riff, Of Van Vert County, who appears
TO be one Of the model husbands, adver.
tives 'his wife, Nancy, as having left his
bed and board without just cause OF
.provocation, says he'll pay no debts, but
ends with inviting her home, &c. The
said Nancy, by herself or next friend,
'Tepliesiin the Democrat, in not very mild
terms. She informs her said husband,
a. for home, he has none for her, except
a shan.y open to all the winds and rains
Of heaven-as for bed he'can provide no
covering, notaeven house roof, and as to
her Just cause of'ieaving, she cites sun
dry whipPings and kickings out Of doors,
inflicted by her said leige lord, when
swelled with whiskey he had waxed
fghy and kickish and was gust man
enough 70 strike woman; and last Of
oil, about her paying no debts on her
scconnt, she thinks if he will omyretum
the funds which mas been provided by
her and her children's industry, for years
hack, to maintain him, she will get along
without asking the help of his credit
We do not know whether Nancy des-
eribes her husband right, but those who
advertise their wives are at least half the
time guilty Of drunkenness, violence,
neglect and meanness to their wives, that
would Justify any separation whatsoever,
and in most Instances fancy ride on
rail road for the human brute that had
wronged wife's weakness, and abused
her trust.

mensions that would forever tarnish the

upon the back of the head; straight hair;

cold, but, from morning till night, by a
lump of tobacco; lips stained yellow by
the juice Of the same plant; black coat,
with narrow skirts, tumbled shirt, the
