A LaughabIe Notice.

We are indebted to the Warrentown On. c.. }
News for the following advertisement, which
was posted up in a tavern in Newbern while the
Legislature was In session at that place.
Mine host, it seems. was an honest we'll
meaning fellow, who had received the idea that
the members were the very salt of the earth,
and had listened to the complaints of some of
them, relative to the doings of a few wilder
characters, who did not belong to their fraterni-
ty Here is the notice which he posted in the
most conspicuous place in the house:
'Look Here The following rules of order
Will be hereafter observed in this Hotel Mem
bers of the Assembly viii go to the table first
and the gentlemen afterwards"
After reading it over he did not exactly like

added: ae s-asr

BSg@The Leicester Mercury extracts the follow
ing anecdote from lecture just delivered by a
Mr. Potter, before the Working Mems Improve
ment Society, Loughborough:
''Many years ago several youths were bathing
in the Soar near Cotes were amusing themselves
by jumping into the water from the parapet OF
the bridge. One of them was melted to repeated
efforts by the companions shouting well done,
Lumley" A merchant of the same name rode
up on horseback at the time and hearing the cry
became much interested with the lad, took hin?
with him and brought him up a gentlem an.
Some years after, in Acknowledgements of services
he rendered to the Crown, the lad was created
Earl of Scarborough, and the present Earl OF
Scarborough, is one of his successors. Some
time ago, (said Mr.. Potter, when the present
Earl was on Il visit at Rempstone Hall, saw his
Iordship looking over that bridge; whether med
itating upon the claims the bridge had upon his

wants repairing, it would not be amiss to remind

Fashions &C.

The fashionable season in New York has COM

are full, and large balls have been called forth
magnifcence Of toilette never before equalled III
this New World Ladies wear gold and silver
brocades costing a thousand dollars and more
a dress, or rich silks trimmed with lace founces
from one to three thousand dollars in value
One lady of high ton recently appeared IN cos
tune partly embroidered with pearls, another
wore dress whose lace hounces were wrought
with seed pearls, at the same fete. Another
wore set of diamonds which cost thirty thou
sand dollars, at grand party, and even the
young bellies are costumed la Pompadour, in
stead of wearing gauze or muslin, thereby ma
king themselves old and matronly in dress at
least, and yielding to fashion the simplicity of
attire so becoming to youth, and which has
heretofore marked the New York girl out from
others in strange cities as being the best dress
ed of all, from her very absence of ornament.
Being in French modisfe's the other morning,
we were amazed at her prices, by the way, for
these airy ball dresses which in reality cost We
rylittle, and are only becoming to the young

and very cheap at that. With flowers it would

A Patriots PRAYER

Many years ago, on a well-remembered occa-
sion, when the Union just undergoing one
ofthose tests which threatened rend it in twain
Daniel Webster closed one of the most sou-stir-
ring speeches he delivered, with the follow
ing glorious sentiments:
"Jghen my eyes for the last lime shall be raised
to Jetold The sun IN Heaoen, may they not gaze
upon the broken fragments of a dishonored, but
once glorious Union; upon States discovered, dis
cordant, belgerent; upon land rent with civil
feuds, and drenched, it may be, in paternal
blood. Let their last feeble and lingering gaze
rather behold the glorious ensign of the Republic,
now known and honored throughout the earth,
still full high advanced-not one stripe erased or
polluted, not one star obscured, but streaming in
all their original lustre and bearing for its motto
no such miserable interrogatory, as sWhat is all
this worth ?? nor those of the words of delusion
and folly, Liberty first, the Union afterwards
but everywhere, spread all over in characters of
living light blazing all its ample folds, as they
float over the sea and over the land, and in every
wind under the whole heavens, that other senti-
ment. dear to every true American heart, 'Liber-
ty and Union, now and forever, one and insepa-
rable''

General Pierce and the Boston Authori-
ties.

BosToN Jan. "a
Mayor Seaver to-day read letter before the
Board of Aldermen from Gen. Pierce, in reply
TO an invitation to accept the hospitalities of the
City of Boston, on his way to Washington. The
letter rectes his previous verbal acceptance of
the invitation when personally presented by the
committee at Concord. The General states,
however. that after the event which has recent
" befallen him with crushing weight, it is his
wish to proceed to his post of duty, as quietly
and privatelya as circumstances will permit. lie
feels deeply sensible of the kindness which has
prompted the invitation, and fully appreciates
the evidence thus afforded of the estimation in
which he is held by the citizens of Boston, but
looks upon them not as due to any personal
claims of regard, but as springing from noble
motive and as a proposal to receive him as
representative of principle, uppermost in all
hearts-the basis of which is the sacredness of
the Union.
A principle that will be cherished by all while
any adequate love of common country exists
in the Republic. Whatever anxieties may yet
be in store for hin-whatsver obstacles interpo-
ses in the way of duty, he has undying faith
that he will never falter in devotion to that OBJ
ject He looks with fearless confidence for the
support of all patriots, of whatever party, IN his
endeayors to preserve the Union of the States,
and the supremacy of the laws, which are the
surest guarantees of our happiness, present and
future.

nlanted

triumphant Trial Of the Ericsson Caloric Ves-
saI-A New Era in Navigation---Steam Sup
planted
The New York Herald of the 7tB gives an in
,orestipg account of the successful trial of the
Ericsson caoric ship in the Bay of New York
on the 4th inst, and INDUCES some interesting
.peculations upon the great revolution in nav
spation that must be the speedy result The
sxperraant has proved beyond all doubt, the
.ficiencv of ealoric as n motive power for YES
ueIs and that it is destined very shortly to sup
rIant steam altogether cannot be doubted when
we consider the following facts
While q steamship of the same size of the
Ericsson would consume on an average sixty to
zeveuty tous of coal in the twenty-four hours,
the latter would be fully supplied during the
same time by six tons, thus effecting saving in
this article of nine -tenths, so that voyage
round the world can be made without stopping
at anv intermediate place for fuel. The space
now REQUIRED for slowing coal can then be ap.
propriated to carrying freight and, not the
least item in its favor, the disastrous accidents
to which steamers are now liable, cannot by pos
sibility occur with caloric ships. Besides these
advantages, the machinery of ship built on
the plan of the Ericsson will be of compare
tive small cost, and will not require half the
number of fremen and engineers.
The Calorie ship, which is named 'Ericks-
son, after the distinguished inventor will short
cross the ocean and astcnish the Old World with
another startling monument of American genius
and enterprise. The dimensions of the ship
are. length 500 feet, breadth of beam 40 feet,
depth of hold % feet, and her burthen 1900
