Notwithstanding the rumors of his decli-
nation of the mission. President Pierce,
it is said, after an interview with him, in
Philadelphia, obtained Mr.. BIS aceep-
lance of the important trust. An anus
ing incident occurred at the starting of
the train from Camden, on Wednesday,
with General Pierce and his Cabinet Off
GERS. Mr.. Buchanan was present, taking
leave of the President, when the admoni-
tory whistle of the locomotive announced
that all was ready for starting. Still Mr..
B. fingered, having a few more "last
words to communicate to the President,
and cordially shaking his hand, bidding
him, repeatedly, good BY" The reluc-
lance to leave, combined with the reported
doubt of his acceptance of the mission,
chimed so well. that one of the Cabinet
Officers, in his hurry, loosely cried out,
"Well Mr.. Buchanan, if you intend to
60, why don't you 60" The effect was
irresistible, the accepting minister made
up his mind and left Immediately, amid
a burst of merriment, in which he hearth

The happiest man in the world is said
to be "a niger at dance" In our
opinion this rule is too limited. A "nig-
ger" is not only happy at a dance, but in
every other position. A darkey may be
poor, but he is never lowspirited. What
ever he earns he invests in fun and devil
try. Give him dollar, and in less than
an hour he sill lay seven shillings of it
out in yellow neck-ties or cracked violin.
There is something in the African that
sheds trouble as a duck will water. Who
ever knew collud pussun" to commit
suicide The negro is strongly given to
love and jealousy; but has no taste for
arsenic. He may lose his all by betting
against roulette, but he don't find relief
for his despair as white folks do, by re-
sorting to charcoal fumes or new bed
cord, but by visiting ode fair SEX" and
participatingin themany influence of ode
occiputal convolutions of der clarinet"

Low RATES OF FOOD IN FRANCE.-It is
astonishing at what low rates good and
clean food may be afforded. when it's
production is effected by the division of
labor, and when it is sold at cost price.
An institution has been founded at Gren-
oble, for the supply of food to the work
ing classes. The building and utensils
were purchased with the subscriptions of
some wealthy citizens. Each member of
the society pays an entrance fee of forty
cents, and the following prices for the
principal articles composing meal:
quart of soup, 2 cents quarter of
pound of meat, roast or boiled, 4 cents
a third of a pound of bread, cent; half
8 pint of wine, II cents plate of veg
etables, 2 cents. A plentiful dinner may
be, therefore, had for ii cents. The
same would cost more in Paris, probably
Is cents-which is often paid by the
workmen for much less copious meal.

BASE IMPosTER.-The Arkansas True
Democrat, of a late date, introduces to the
public a vile hypocrite and imposter, as
follows:
1.-THE Rev. DIR. J. F. Minor, came to
this city last June from Montgomery,
Alabama. He had just married an anna
bic young wife, and was in search of a
home. He was, we understand, a regular
accredited clergyman in the Methodist
Church, over the signature of Bishop
Andrews. He preached here repeatedly,
and as he bore himself like true Chris
tian, and possessed an agreeable address,
he readily ingratiated himself into favor.
After contracting many debts, and be-
coming involved, he took his departure
for Florida, leaving his wife here, with
the avowed purpose of returning with
some negroes he owned in that State. He
had not been gone, however, more than
month, before his wife received a letter
from Mobile, enclosing ring he had taken
from her, and announcing his Death
Through the exertions of the Rev. A. R.
Winfield, we learn that means were raised
which enabled Mrs. Minor to return to
Alabama where she now resides.
This heartless villain, we have been in
formed, is not dead. He was seen by one
of our citizens, few weeks ago, in Phila-
delphia, in company with another lady,
no doubt another victim of his deception.
DR.. Minor has his left hand off, Just above
the wrist, is tall and slim, quite delicate
and well calculated to deceive"

DAILY EVENING STAR.
The Suspicious Man.

This kind of individual is ALWAYS smell.
ing continuous line of rats. He sees.
hears, nor dreams of anything in which
he does not smell rat" The most
harmless action of his neighbor, under his
suspicious and inquisitorial disposition,
is made matter of serious investigation,
because he knows there is something in
the wind, for he saw his neighbor, Mr..
B., speaking confdentially to Mrs. S.,
that very morning in the market He
puts that and that together, and connects
this whispering in the morning with
something he heard in the BARRIERS shop,
some weeks before, and he is satisfied that
his neighbor B. is either going to fail in
his business, or abscond without giving
his creditors due notice.
The most terrible part of such mans
character is, that he places such faith
upon the corollories he draws from his
false premises, that he does not hesitate
to give wing to the base suspicious of his
mind, and frequently is the means of
bringing about disaster which never
would have happened but for him.
Many happy fireside has been rem
dered desolate-many prosperous young
man brought to ruin-many a virtuous
and amiable girl been driven to despair
by the fiendish inuendoes of the Suspi-
cious Man. No man, however upright
and honest-no woman, however ire
proachable-no maiden, however pure, is
safe in the neighborhood of the Suspicious
Man. He has all the curiosity of Paul
Pry, without his good nature, and the
malignity of the devil, without his talent.
If ever Lynch law is justifable in a
community, it is when exercised on the
Suspicious Man. Rotten to the core of
his heart himself, he has no faith in the
virtue and honesty of others. He exists
In state of continual doubt of the mo-
tives and actions of others, and in conse-
quence his life is, at the best, but pro-
longed misery.-N. 0. Delta.
