Por-1prvTI,L STATISTICS The Gin
cinnati Enquircr complies some interest
i,q Presidential Statistics. Since the
formation of the Constitution OF the
United States. the people have elected
twelve persons to the Presidential chair,
AL Of whom are now dead with the ex-
eeption of Martin Van Bnren and Generai
Pierce. During the same period OF time.
thirteen persons have occupied the posi-
ton of Vice President. bu. four Of whom
are now living: Martin Van Buren, john
Tyler, George NJ. Dallas and Willard
Fillmore. The President who lived
longest after vacating the Presidential
chair. was John Adams who survived that
period twenty five years. His son John
Quincy Adams and James Madison. rank
next TO him in that respect, both living
nineteen years. Mr.. Polk died within
three months af er he eft the sect OF Gov
eminent, aud General Washington lived
but little over two years after he re-
turned 70 the shades Of Mount Vernon.
Among the Vice Presidents. Aaron Burr
lived over thirty years after his term oil
office hal ex PRED, aud John Adams was
survivor about the same period OF lime.
1t is singlar coincidence that three CT
orr Presidents who figured IN the days of
the Revolution, expired on the 18th OF
July: John Adams. Thomas Jefferson, and
James Monroe. the two first named both
diving on the same anniversary, being the
fifIieth one from the time independence
was declared IN l776 Samuel l.. South

he was elevated to the Chief Magistracy

THE PoPE AND HIS PoLICY.-We learn
from very intelligent gentleman who
has means of information on :he subject
winch we have not, that change i'm the
policy of the Pope more in accordance
with the policy of the age than that which
he has recently pursued. is rumored in
some of the diplomatic circles of South
ern Europe. 1t is stated that he has re-
Gently made his confessor and compan-
ion Cardinal. This man processes lib
eral views. He is Clpuchin, and is re-
puted to possess much talent. He has
been long opposed to Antoneili and 9th
FRS of the relrograde faction in the Sacred
College. 1t is believed that his Holiness
will soon make him prime minister. In
this case. new cabiaet will be chosen.
and more liberal course will be pursued.
The Pope will then 60 to Paris, and crown
Louis Napoleon measure TO which he
is entirely favorab bic, but which has been
much opposed by Austria and some other
powers. as well as by the adherent of the
Duke of Bordoaux.-Jour. of Com.

A New MEDIUM "A gentleman was
met in the street, the other night, who
had evidently taken in too much of the
ardent for convenient storage. and was
rather unqdietly resting himself against
lamp post. when an acquaintance came
along. anu observed that the afflicted in
dIvidual had on a new overcoat.
"Well, Bob" said he. "guess you've
been indulging in new overcoat."
Coat replied Bob. giving his hat a
knock back and eDdeavoring to gesticu-
late, ''this amt coat"
''Isn't a coat, ELI? Well, Bob, what
is it,"
Bob elevated himself to tottering per-
pendicular. and exclaimed:

The Turkish Generalissimo.

Omer Pacha, commander-in-chiefo of the Turk
ish Army. is said to be much beloved by the
soldiers, although he conforms very little to Ma
hommedan customs-among other things, openly
drinking wine at the table. He has no harem,
but one wife, an Austrian lady, from Transyl-
vania. A letter from Shulma says of him:
Sc He is most frank, disinterested and loyal
mana Jealous friend to the land of which he
has become a subject, and to the army which he
commands, and which he has brought to a state
of great perfection. His personal appearance
is handsome, and he possesses very great per-
sonal courage. His age may be about fifty two.
70 this you must add great military instruction
and experience, and a natural instinct for mill
tary affairs.
with such qualities, he has, as you may
easily imagine, an irresistible influence over the
forces he commands possessing their full conf
dence. By origin, Croat, he was educated in
the military schools of his country. When yet
very young, he left the Austrian service, and re-
paired to Constantinople, where he made him
self master Of the Turkish language. He was
appointed to situation in the War Department.
The Sultan Mahmoud created him major in the
army as recompense for his services whilst
thus engaged. He has since risen to the high
est posts. He owes his present position to his
sword, and has been marshal for several years.
He successfully commanded the Turkish troops
in Syria, Bosnia, and Montenegro"

ONE KIND OF "HELp."-A tradesman was

female, whom he politely addressed and de.
Sired to know what commands she wished
to honor him with. The lady, after lifting
her veil, which hid not unhandsome face
intimated, in style corresponding with hei
dress, that hearing there was vacancy in
the genteman's home, she desired to be en-.
gagged by him as housemaid, The gentle.
