a SINGULAR FAMILY.-ln a small village
in tho Bouclics du Rhonc, (France,) there
is a family of three persons-husband, wife
and daughter-who have made a solemn vow
to preserve the most profound silence. A
traveller who lately passed their dwelling
fnding it necessary to make some "inquir-
les" respecting his way, applied TO these
eccentric people. Not receiving any answer
to his questions he repeated them, when to
his great astonishment, they, in a tit of ex-
ASPIRATION, seized a eudgeI, tongs and turn
spit, and threatened him with summary cas-
tigation. This extraordinary conduct is ex-
planned by the factthat the parties had be-
come dupes ofa clerical impostor, who has
taken advantages OF their credulity by hold
ing out to them the acquisition Of a great
treasure on condition Of their maintaining a
strict silence. They have formed a rcsolu-
ton to keep such silence for tho space of
nine years, only ene-half of which term has
yet expired. But as so complete an inter-
diction Of the use of the tongue could not
fail TO become intolernble to the female por-
ton of the family, the impostor granted them
permission to indulge their natural propen-
sity anywhere beyond the limits of their
Commune. In order to avail Themselves OF
this privilege the two women regularly re-
pair every market day 10 the little town of
Belfort, where they enjoy the conversation
Of their n%eighbors and mitigate, in some de.
gree, the privation which they voluntarily
endure Courier deS Flats Unis.

SoMH CAsH.-Thc Now York Herald says:
from the Mount Alexander and Ballurat dig
gings, in Australia, it appears, amount to
nearly seventy-four tom of gold-that is to
say, about thiity-two millions of dollars
but the total export from the island since
October last rises 10 an aggregate OF nearly
forty-five millions, with perhaps ten millions
awaiting expectation, or in the hands of the
miners or escorts to the seaports. Upon
these data we may safely assume that the
sum total Of the yield of the Australian gold
mines, during the last twelve months, will
exceed in value the cnormous aggregate OF
soven,y-fvo millions dollars"

REsuLT or CHEAT FAREs.-It IS stated
that since the reduction of fare to Albany on
the Harlem road, the receipts for through
business have increased 80 per cent. This
is another practical demonstration Of what
has been SO often asserted and proven, that
low fares almost invariably briSg an increase
of revenue. Many railroad compa2ies now
charging exorbitant rates, and doing little
more than paying current expenses, we.have
not a doubt would be astonished themselves
at the increase Of their receipts, were they
to evince a little more of the spirit of the
age, and reduce their fares just one half.

0VL0NAbOSf W. - NOSc'
EDITOR GAzE-TE:-Alier infinite toll and
incredible Neutrality-suspicious., the Senate on
Tuesday succeeded BY the bare constitu-
tional majority in passing through the old
stager that haunted the State Treasury. AZ
ter being so wofully emaciated aud emascu-
lated by the cute tactics OF Gen. Wilson,
that even its old friends became indifferent
TO its success, il was carried through amid
jibes and jeers by the most unfaitering
strength Of eighteen Senators. Its chance
Of passing the House has long been hope
less and is growing smaller bv degrees and
beautifully less. Breslin and his men arc
laughing heartily at the impOtent malice OF
his enemies and chuckle over the blightcd
hopes oithose immaculate "democrats" who
with sc much pUmp aud cirruinstunc nee came
up to the doors Of the State Treasury, hick-
ory broom in hand, "iU sweep ont the Gal
phins," and who now disappointed and chop.
fallen retire from the contest, the images Of
despair and as they think the victims oil
'rcaehery.
Yesterday it was whispered about that
the Senate had made mistake. A proVIs-
ion had been incorporated in the bill pro-
hibiting the State Treasurer from accepting
for dues to the State any notes OF banks re-
fusing to pay the tax levied upon them o,y
the law existing at this time ond It was SAID
to have been the subject Of much c0ngratu-
lation in the bank parlors ofthe CapltalCrty,
for that of all provisions this was the most
desirable to them. This report gnlned cur
rcncy and spread like contagion. I.ocofo-
coisrn was nstouished The tin-pan was
astounded. Was il possible that that "Dem-
ocratic" Senate had pampered to the vora-
cious a~ppetite OF these blood suckers and
lleeches! 1t must not be. If this be true,
the thing must be undone.
Accordingly the vote by which the bill
passed was reconSidercd yesterday after
noon, and the gentlemen who were two days
ago 80 ~fiercoly in favor OF the bill now sneak
ingly backed out from a position that they
we're frightened from by a bug bear, OF the
Imagination only. The bill was reconsid-
cred and referred TO a select committee Of
five, with instructions TO strike out tho Of
~fcnsive clause. Before anothe week has
elapsed, they will doubtless be frightened
back again and possibly be moved to reject
the whole bill as a pIunderins scheme Of the
bank buccaneers. Who knows!
The House is considering the school bill.
The code still lies on the table and is await
ing the action Of the Senate on the bill to
provide for the publication of the laws. The
bill for tho relief Of the poor has passed the
Senate. Also the bill TO authorize Sheriffs,
observation-disclosures and COroners TO make
return of sales on any::day during the spring
term of court for the year 1853. A resolu-
ton was passed to-day authorizing the Board
Of Public Works to examine into the claim
OF Joseph Walton of Tuscarawas county
for damages sustained at thcTrenton feeder.
It is understood that the first Monday Of
March will be fixed upon as the time OF the
final adjournment. Let il come.

Columns, Feb. IL, 1853.
EDITOR GAzErrE:-The resolution 10 ad-
journ sine die on the aIst inst, having been
reported backby the House select commit.
tee, it was promptly laid upon the table and
sleeps there undistutbed. This, for the frst
few days OF its tendency, had a marked ten
dsncy to facilitate the business Of the leg
i'laturc, but after being buried in the
'Jreeches pocket" Of Mr.. O'Neil, it lost its
charm and the assembled wisdom relapsed
into the old gait of mulish o~bstinacy and
stupidity.
The School bill introduced by Mr.. Rice
and which passed the Senate sometime since,
has been the subject ola long and weary
discussion in the House. and has been a.
mended in an infinite variety Of respects,
the most unfortunate Of which was striking
out a provision that every educator is anx-
ious to retain and which has received the re-
commentator and approval Of the very
highest literary authority in America-that
is the clause authorizing the trustees of each
school district at the public expense to pro-
cure n copy of Webster's unabridged die
tionary. This provision will be insisted on
by the Senate and that most important bill
may yet thus be defeated. If this should
" - iOouieb "hut hbJlC iloStCN VI COuBIdNu-
lation upon the success ofthe "adjourned ses-
sion" that its friends might have been able
to dig up from the offensive mass of folly and
ignorance which it has ~spanned, would no
longer remain 10 redeem them from their iso-
lated and unique character for imbecility.
The bill for the reorganization of the State
Treasury is still under discussion in the Sem
ate and the bad feelings it engendered in its
primitive state, have been merged into a
smooth stream of Indifference by the partial
success Of the Breslin mea in pruning il
down to their own views. Nobody now
feels any interest either in its success or de-
feat and either will happen on the mere cas-,
Of a die.
A long bill has been introduced BY Mr..
Cradlebaugh to define tho jurisdiction and es-
tablish the mode of procedure before Justic.
es of the Peace under the new code and was
read the first time on Saturday. The Sen
ate adjourned at noon till Monday.
The code is on the table in the House and
will pass without amendment whenever it il
taken up. Several bills are pending to a
mend the tax law Of last winter, but none o.
them make any material change. The exemp
ton clause will be repealed and fixed at moi
more than se~venty-fve dollars.
The Legislature will not probably ad.
