VERY NATURAL ARM.


The now noted despnt of Austria, who has r.-
voked upon the head of european misrule the
exccrations of an indignant world in the ruth
lessncss of his attempt to rise above all the
obligations of religion and morality, whenever
there was question of royal interest, although
only in the second year Of his reign, is growing
alarmed at the consequence of his tyranic poll
cy, upon the population of the Germanic States.
"The "Imperial G,zotte," published at Viena,
declares that the emigration to America, from
the German States, is, of the most alarming
nature, when considered, with reference to the
weIlbeing of the sccpte According to its
statements, the number that migrate annually
to the New world, cannot fall short of 81, 900
souls. The mere fact of depopulaton would
not be so seriously regarded, were it not th1t,
amongst this number, there are, in many instan-
ces, persons af no inconsderable means, where
by millions of money are drawn from the Ger
manic trade.
But this is not TIE only feature, in which, the
Gazette cause for alarm. There is another,
and to use the language of the Imperial organ,
a worse than this, in the reflection that, with
this depopulation and transit of capital, there
goes with these manufacturing agency, which
has always been regarded by the Government,
as Of leading importance to the public treasury
Speaking on this subject, the Gazette holds
the following language:
"The so called Black Forest manufactures,
shaI ~, Il,
ted States, as also Nnremburg wares. But
since such masses of fcmigrans have gone from
the Swabian Highlands and Francon,a, their
peculiar manufactures have rome over with,
them, and Black Forest Watches tn ware cook
ing utensils, and wooden nick nacks, are made
as we'll, and better, on the banks Of thr Olin
and Nj ssisspni, as in their naive valleys and
mountains. Yes, thy succeed even already
in exporting so that those who have emipratrd,
are able to compete with their brothers in the
homo market.
Also in the great industrial branches Of spin
ming and weav;nr, the United States advance
rapidly, as the Exhibition at London has suff
ciently shown.
In cotton they spin twice as much as Austria
and Germany.
Whether the German emigrants devote
themss Ives to agriculture or manufactures is
quite the same. In both ways they increase the
production of raw materials, and by degrees
help to drive our manufactures out Of the mar
ket.
This is the effect of our opinion of German
emigration to America
NV, although we cannot suppress emigra.
| lion yet we think it lies in the interest of on,
| home manufactures that it should be directed i
possible I, countries which are not themselve.
ndapted t" be manufacturing countries Wha
countries thrsa are, and how FAR Austrian nav
CATION may be directed to them, we Will SPEAK

DUBUQUE MARBLE FAcroRY.-Passing the

Mr.. Tanning has splendid stock Of Du

A MIscREA<r.-Mrs. G.. B. Morrison was
shot at few nights since, by some miscrean'
who ought to be ferreted out and severely pun
ishcd for his dastardy act
The circumstances Of this case as related to
us by DR.. Scott, the brnthcr-in.law OF Mrs Nor
rison, are as follows
Late in the evening Mrs. NJ. was startled by
the fierce barking Of the dogs, and supposing
that i, might be her hHsband,' whom she was
hourly expecting from California, she went cut
and passed behind hay stack, which stood
near the house in order to get view Of the
road and as she approached the hay stack the
dogs became more fierce. Suddenly man
emerged from the hay, drew a pist"l from his
pocket, and deliberately 6rcd at her, the charge
passing SO near her face, that the force threw
her down. In her fall she gave scream, which
together with the onslaught of the dogs, induced
the miscrcant to make his escape. The f,thcr
of Mrs NJ. when he heard the alarm, immedi-
! ateIy went to her relief and found her on the
ground and conveyed her TO the house. Every
cxertion was made to discover the scamp,
but thus far, all Efforts have proved fruitless.

where the defendant IS arraigned for cutting
timber some three years ago, although the de
E.ndant bought the same land OF the govern

is before thu court, where the p1rty WIS an in.

timber having been taken from government
lands.
The SC procc ,dings are instituted by the L.
s. District Attorney, by virtue of an order from
the Treasury Department, and under the pro-
visions Of law passed by Congress many years
ago, to restrain the cutting of Live Oak in Flor

Hope ever shines with smiling ray,
Through clouds of grief o'crcast.
Though pain and troubles round us grow

Many sweet flowers around them blow,
Where we may honey find.
If al around us blossom'd bright

We should MT know the worth of hight,
Nor contcmplat its ray.
Sickness and sorrow, pain and care,
Which gain'access by stealth,
Teach us TO know how weak we are,
And how to value health
Though fees oppose On every side,
And slandcr tants the air
Contentment, like an angel bride,
Win vanquish every care.
Though loved ones from our sight arc cast,
Who to the soul were dear,
Let us not ponder DER the past
We may find friends as dear.
Who'd cultivate a haneful flower
Tapoison where it grew,
Or who would sip at carly hour,
The nightshad 'epearly dew!
Then let MS wire our tears away,
Nor ponder or the past,
Though clouds Of sorrow shade to-day,

When the manufacturers of this country make

any more complaints about ruin. But the truth
is, the manufacturing interest of this country,
is a bloa.ed mon;ed monopoly, elevated to its

unjust egisla,ion-taking the sweat and toll of
millions 10 appease the greedy appetite of a few

where he can obtain the cheapest, and then the
