AN EXTRAORDINARY CAsE.-Mr Weber has
reported bill in the Senate of Maryland, Eek
planatory Of the act OF l7l7, chap g. relating
to servants and slaves,n to meet u most sincu-
lar case, the particulars of which correspond
ent of the Argus thus relates:
at appears, by the law referred TO, that any
white person found guilty of marrying what is
commonly termed a colored person, the parties
are liable to be sold, the man and woman for
term Of years Il believe seven) into servitude,
and their issue, If any, AZ slaves for life The
case referred to is somewhat after this fashion
narrated white citizen of this State, some
years ago married female whom he believed
to be of pure white descent The woman is
said to be handsome, of excellent qualities, and
does not bear in any way the slightest marks
indicative OF her being otherwise than of the
purest Anglo Saxon race. The man has &C
CURED fine property and is held in great re-
spcct by all who know him and his family.
They have three children. Some person, having
undertaken to trace out the pedigree of the
wife, alleges that her blood 10 tainted-some of
her grand or great grand parents probably
have been of the colored speces-and the par.
ties have accordingly been indicted in one of
the Circuit Courts of this State. A tainture of
blood works the serious penalty mentioned
The indictment is said to be the result of NAL
ice. The neighbors, all who know the family,
have taken deep interest in their behalf 1t
Is said that Governor Lowe, upon due repre-
sentaton OF the case, has offered to grant a
noHe proseqm, which would relieve the parties
OF the process OF the court but the parents
feeling anxious to redeem their offspring from
all stain in public estimation, have preferred
standing trial, and hence the present action
Of the Legislature. This is not only novel,
but most severe caseo

The spirit Of the age must control the lltera-
,ure, the reading Of the age When science is
universally cultivated. scientific books will be
universally read. New and better books on
science will be furnished, coming out in quick
succession, to meet the demands of society, and
TO supply the wants Of business. Scientific
reading will be the fashionable reading OF the
day. Even now the fashionable science OF
Europe is agriculture, as well it may be, being,
as il truly is; the science of all sciences.
From the statements of booksellers, this
change has already commenced, in good earn
est. The iiashy ANIMALS, recently all the fash
ion, say they, are dead and not one-thlrd OF
the trashy light reading. of various descriptions,
called for five years since, finds at present any
demand. II books of the most substantial char
acter are not yet in general demand. those the
most light and trhing are greatly in dsuse.
WORLDS FAIRS" and fairs" all over the
world, are becoming, have become, the fashion
OF the age. AT this moment, not less than three
Worlds Fairs are in the process of preparation.
There NAV be many others. In aid Of " Indus
trial Exhibitions" for farmers, mechanics, and
other classes, the public press is brought largely
into requisition the more such exhibitions are
extended, the more the attention of the press
is absorbed by them. The more scientific sur
veys are extended, the more the press will be
come an engine Of science. Let scientific sur
veys become the regular exercises Of schools,
and newspapers the organs of those surveys,
and the schools will have new vehicles of know
ledge, always fresh, and papers new fields OF
labor, always charging. Who does not see
that such time is near, and. when il comes,
scientific literature will be the fashionable lite
nature Of our country and the world2

DEMOCRACY OF sCIENCR.-No. 22.
ny JOSIAH HoI.BRooK.

Two great facts are manifest. and every day
becoming more so-the legislation OF our coun-
Try, and our whole couniry, is directed promi-
nently TO the promotion OF practical science, and
the literature OF our country is changing from
light 10 solid from trashy to substantial.
BY legislative action--State and national
hundreds of millions have been expended. with
in few years past. for the development and
application of our natural resources. Half a
million has been expended on the geological
survey Of New York alone, and large sums in
other States, aided by thorough and greatly ex-
tended surveys under the General Government
Some five hundred millions have been expend-
ed on railroads; nearly as much, perhaps, on
canals and very large sums on telegraphs
by many of the States "bureaus of agricul-
iure" have been established and agricultural
societies, both for States and counties, are com
mon through our entire country Some Of our
colleges are provided with professors of agri-
culture, and agricultural departments, in some
cases, added to academies and several institu-
tons are proposed-perhaps in operation--for
the express purpose OF instruction in agriculture
and mechanism. Even in common primary
schools, elementary Ueatises on agriculture are
used as class books, aided by cabinets Of geology
and other specimens, both Of nature and art.
Some schools are provided with surveyors in
struments, used on excursions by the pupils, 10
render more thorough their surveys for explor-
inc the general resources Of the surrounding
country. The time is not distant when sur
yeyor's compass will be considered an essential
appendage TO every school, and excursions for
using il an indispensable exercise for pupils
eyerywhere in The country, The elements of
agriculture and mechanism, evidently embrac-
ing the elements Of nature-animals, yegeta-
bes, and miperals--are coming to be recognised
as the most essential subjects of primary in
slruciiop, and that more by experiment aud
observation, than BY abstract theories from
books.

From the Boston Traveller.
MARLBORO HOTEL.
MsssTs. Editors

Mssus Editors
An up-country resident Graves the loan Of an
unappropriated corner in your paper, to speak
to your country readers brief word of COM
mendation in behalf of your quiet orderly, and
most deserving Hotel, the Marlboro.
To the traveller, next to his own good home,
which he cannot carry with him, the best thing
is good hotel which he is often destined to
seek, but never find And it is the highest
praise of the public house, when it can be tru-
iy said Of it. that the name of Traveller
Home" so often displayed outside upon the
gn-board, is found by the traveller to be felt
and constant reality within the house itself
And it is but simple justice to say that the
Marlboro, under its present management, John
A. Parks deserves such commentator. And
in recommending public house to the patron
age Of those who know how to appreciate the
quiet and temperate joys of virtuous and
peaceful home, it is not enough that we can
speak OF spaoions apartments and costly fur
nture, and loaded tables; of these, indeed tho
Marlboro has a due proportion in common
with many others. But the upholsterer and
the steward alone, though exhausting the ut
most resources of their ingenious and indspen-
sable art cannot make Travellers Home
There must DO q good genius Of order, of quiet
ude, of courtesy, which draws the cautious
stranger at once within the circle of its subtle
influence, and holds the permanent resident
still under its charmed power, ruling all with
out constrsint and cheering oil without in
sbriating"
Such spirit is radiant upon the countenance
Of "mine host Of the Marlboro, and it speaks
in the cheerful yet quiet voices, and acts in the
becoming yet unconstrained department of his
numerous guests.
A glance at the rows of faces ranged up and
down the long-extended tables, is enough to as
sure stranger, the first time he takes bis seat
among them, that the intoxicating draught
never passes their lips, that the profane Jest
will never be heard in their company, and that
the boisterous sound Of midnight mirth will not
disturb the weary sleeper beneath the roof that
shelters them. With reverent countenances,
they join in thanksgiving for the divine boun.
ty which has laden the board with the "good
things" Of the earth and of the sea- And even
as in the Christian home itself when the hour
of rest comes, the same apartments which have
bsen the seenp Of common intercourse and So
cial enjoyment during the day, become sa.
cred temple for united praise and prayer TO the
great Father of oil, and for commencing the
beloved ones of many distant homes to His holy
keeping.
There are thousands of the friends Of tenn
perapce, and virtue, and religion, throughout
the country, who would DO glad to be assured
that when they come rs strangers to the Me-
topolis Of New England they can find pub

GENTLE EVA.
BY MRS. X. s. NICHOLS.

Have you heard the touching story.
Told SO sadly, of that cline
Where the rose, in crimson glory,
Brightens all the summer time'
1t tells us Of n maiden
Golden haired and starry-eycd-
Young in years, by thought oerladen.
Who in angel beauty died.
Gentle Eva, loving Eva,
Sleeping by the obbing wave;
Wall or WOO shall never grieve her,
Shrouded in her messy grave
Onoe she wept Ter wrong and sorrow,
Childish tears so wisely she'd
Birds of Eden, on the morrow,
Warbled dirges DER her head;
Velvet leaf and snowy blossom
Crowned her young and radiant brow;
Der her white and heaving bosom
Little hands are folded now
Gentle Eva, loving Eva,
Sleeping by the moaning tide,
Never more shall sorrow grove her,
Who in angel beauty died
