laundresses in house opposite the spot
where Fieschi had concealed himself
When the Royal procession went by, one
Of the girls ran out to see the sight; the
other was too much occupied at the mo-

The unfortunate laundress who ran out
was shot by the explosion of the internal
machine, and killed. She was buried
with all the funeral honors accorded to
the unhappy victims upon the same occa-
sion, and with great pomp and show
Her friend on seeing her thus conducted
to the grave, burst into passion of tears.
1t may have been supposed to have been
grief for the loss of her deceased compan-

exclaimed with bitterness. 81 might

The editor of the New York Times saws
OF kossuth's personal appearance: " He is
not tall, but robust, with a calm, clear,
and somewhat distracted countenance,-
fine, mild eyes, high forehead, small,
hands, not heavy beard, and a great dig
nifty and ease of manner. He speaks Eng

but with idiomic accuracy and great
strength. His manner in speaking is su-
Perb. Every gesture is graceful and ef-
fective-his voice is sweet and strong
there is no monotony in manner or in mat
ter. He speaks with great power and
with perfect grace. His whole soul is in
his cause.-and he therefore exerts COM

FAIR WARNING.-Here are two or
three hits for juvenile tobacco smokers
and chewers, which we extract from the
Boston Olive Branch:
Tobacco has spoiled and utterly ru-
ined thousands of boys, inducing dam
gerous precocity, developing the passions,
softening and weakening the bones, and
greatly injuring the spinal marrow, and
brain, and the whole nervous fluid. A
boy who early and freely smokes, or 9TH
erwise largely uses tobacco, never is
known to make man of much energy of
character, and generally lacks physical
and muscular, as well as mental energy.
To people older, who are naturally ner-
vous, and particularly the phlegmalic, to-
bacco may be comparatively harmless, but
even to these it is worse than useless
We would particularly warn boys who
want to be anybody in the world, to shun
tobacco as deadly poison"
SENSIBLE LApIEs.-The young ladies
Of Damariscotta, Maine, have recently
formed themselves into society for mu-
tual improvement and protection. Among
the resolutions adopted at regular meet
ing, we find the following
"That we will receive the attention of
no so styled young gentleman, who has
not learned some business or engaged in
some steady employment for livelihood.
For it is apprehended that after the bird
is caught it may starve in the cage.
"That we will promise marriage to no
young man who is in the habit of tipling,
for We are assured his wife will come to
want. and his children go barefoot.
"That we will marry no young man
who is not patron of his neighborhood
paper, for we have not only strong evil
dence of his want Of intelligence, but
that he will prove too stingy to provide
for his family, educate his children, or en-
courage institutions of learning in his vi
cinity."
