Consuls are commercial agents. Gppoin-
ted to resi- IL in the scaPorts OF foreign
countries, with a commission to watch
over the commercial rights and privileges
OF the nation deputing them. By the
laws of the United States, consuls are
specially authorized to receive the protest
of shipmasters and other relating to COM
merce. 1t is likewise made their duty,
where the laws of the country permit, to
administer on the personal estates of Anne
rican citizens dying within their cousu-
lates and leaving no legal representative,
and to take charge of and secure the eff
fects of stranded American vessels, in the
absence of the master, owner, or consig-
nee ; and they are bound to provide for
destitute seamen within their consulates,
and to send them at the public expense,
to the United States. 1t is also made their
duty to reclaim deserters, to discounte-
nance INSTRUMENTATION, to lend their aid to
the local authorities for that purpose, and
to discharge seamen cruelty treated. Be-
sides these, there are other duties imposed
on them not only by statue, but by com
mon usage and the laws of nations. Min
isters represent the power sending them,
and act under confidential Instructions
Their duties are of higher grade than
those performed by consuls. The latter
attend to the details of commerce, the
rights of individuals, ect., while the for
mer take charge of the general interest of
the nation which they represent. A resi-
dent minister, by virtue of his extraordi-
nary powers, might lawfully exercise au-
thority over a consul residing in the same
country. This, however. is rarely done
except in cases ofaagrant error, incapaci-
ty, or neglect on the part of a consul.-N

take in the education of their children
A large number of these children crowd
daily around your humble servant to ac-
quire knowledge of reading. writing,
dc. Several of them also attend the
Sabbath school every Sunday morning.
The Irish women in this neighborhood
are really circumspect, tidy and modest
to admiration. In connection with their
native graces, many of them possess per-
sonal charms of captivating character.
Though doomed. from the manner of life
selected by their husbands to wander
from State to State. yet it may be said in
great truth that many carry along with
them pretty forms, lovely countenances,
pure hearts and charming daughters.
Good health prevails .'distressingly."

ton, and not single white female. ,Thi:
Is fact worthy OF record in the annals o
our State. In number there is scarcely
any disparity between the men and wo-
men of the State /; and the laws which
apply to one apply to the other. in all
criminal cases. Consequently. the fe-
males may claim to be e64 times better
than the males.
We feel inclined to make a compari-
son between this and other States of the
Union, on this subject, more particularly
in reference to he Northern penitentiaries;
but as comparisons are sail to be odious,
we will only remark. that no other State
out of the thirty one, can we believe make
similar boast

THE LATE ADMIRAL SIR GEO. Cock
BURN.-Tne London Times devotes two
columns to the genealogy, the exploits
and public honors of this hero, whose
death occurred recently. 1t recounts
with much Boosting the marauding in the
Chesapeake Bay, and glorifes Sir Geo.
Cockburn for his share in the destruction
of between G9,OOO, 900 and $4,000, 600
of public property at Washington, which
it calls ''splsndid achievement" For
this, more than all his other exploits, ad-
miral Cockburn was loaded with nonors
by his sovereign and by successive par
liaments /; and for this. more than for
anything else he will be honored with a
place among the great in Westminster
Abbey. On this side of the Atlantic,
however, he has long since secured an
Immortality of infamy for his wanda
deeds at Washington and for the cruel.

WITHOUT SH1LLEs.-The Washing
ton Evening Star relates the following in
cident:
mot long since. the President, in an
afternoon ride with his estimable lady
and a female friend, were brought up by
The gate upon the Columbia turnpike on
the opposite side of the Potomac. His
coachman searched his pockets in vain
for the requisite shilling. The President
searched his, but alas not solitary
shilling had they among them. The toll
gatherer, who was Mt times ANNOYED by
the pranks of "fast' folks passing his cato
on their way to the trotting course, with
out "holding up 10 pay toll, began to
think of closing the bar upon them when
the driver informed him that the gentle
man inside was the President of the Uni
ted States. and the gentlemanfnside made
1t all right by promising to pay the shil-
ling when next he should venture 10 ride
on the Virginia side"

SINGULAR CAUSE OF DEArH.-On Satur.
day last, q young man, son of Mr.. Bond
of the firm of Bond Il Tidd, Woburn,
died. Gu Thursday he was called to re-
move some hides from wagon, he had a
slight scratch upon his face, and during
his work he incautiously touched the place
with his hands Immediately redness
and swelling was observed which extended
ever his face although he had the best of
medical aid, the poison which he had re-
oeiyed by incubation from the hides was
leo active aud too powerful to Weld to
medical treatment. This is the third Sfestli
which has occurred in North Woburn
Within year from similar cause.

ATTEMPT TO BREAK JArL.-On Saturday
last. while man was engaged in white
washing the cells of the Jail in this place,
as he removed the coats, hats, &C., of the
prisoners from the pins in the wall. ra-
Their open looking place lead to further
investigation, which proved that the NOR
tar had been picked out all around one OF
the large hewed stones which compose the
wall. The coats &c. had been hung over
the Work to hide it. The cell was well re-
viewed, and on taking apart the bed. a
chisel, square, wood saw, and case knife,
were found between the bedticks. The
prisoners of course, did not know how
they came there. But had they not been
discovered, there would doubtless not
have been so much business in the court
this week.-PruntytoUn Gct=.

INTERNAL IMPRovEMExrs.-E. j. Arm
strong, Esqr., Commissioner of Public
Works, visited our town last week. and
spent day or two in enquiry into the
condition of the public Improvements Of
this part of the State. We observe from
the Western papers that he has been on
a tour of inspection in that quarter also
There as here his visit has given much
satisfaction. Mr. Armstrong IS a practical
man, having been early connected with
State improvements in the North Western
Section /; he is also man Of business;
and we are confident that the interests Of
the Third District, as well as those Of the
whole State, and the fund for intended
improvement, will be safely and judicious-
ly managed in his hands.

BS-"In the mean time there appears 10
be general falling away fom the Presi-
dent."-N. y Courier.
Yes !! Virginia has "fallen away so
far as to send to Congress an unbroken
democratic delegation. Alabama has just
" fallen away" after the same fashion.
Tennessee, too " has fallen away into an
unprecedented majority for democratic
Governor and the election of a democratic
majority in Congress, in the face Of a most
atrocious Wing gerrymander. And, f.
nally, Kentucky and North Carolina have
so far fallen away" as TO put the
Wing party in those States in the worst
plight they ever have been. These " fall
ing away from the President, in the Wing
strongholds give token that the whole
country is falling away from him
SO fast that soon there will be no one
State left to oppose his administration.
