praises of that which is strongest, the
victory ives given to / i'm who declared
the truth to reign supreme; and all the
people cried out as he closed threat is
1.-The truth and She surpasses, and with rea-
son, for under the whole heaven there Is
nothing so mighty" Her progress is
slow and sure, hut mighty, irresistible,
inyincible. Dungeons and bolts, and
letters, and chains, and fleets, ana armies,
and EXAMINATIONS of authority, both point
| ical end ecclesiastical cannot hinder her
final progress. Her chariot wheels roll
steadily on Ike the bright orbs OF heaven,
and lring salvation to her friends and
crush to the dust those WAC oppose them
selves to her progress. She Judges the
poor of the people She ''saves the
children Of the needy and "she breaks
in pieces the opprcSsor." Herself, IN
s,inct with immortal energ.', and like her
great author, indistructa ble. She strikes
with her IRON rod all systems OF error and
they are broken in pelces like potter
vessel. The pillars OF heaven trenble
and are as,onshcd al her reproot. She
shakes all things and is herself mistaken.
That stability which the poet beautifully
describes as belonging to tie the throne
of God while under the burning wheels
of the chariot Of heaven.
"The steedfas, ernpyrean shook thronghout~
al bat the throne Itself Of Cod"
belongs also to her.
The mighty energy of truth, might be
illustrated by great many familiar ex-
amplcs. Why does the rciigiousiy m

INTERESTING DEcISIoN.-Judge Livingston, OF
the Fifth District Count, New Orleans, recently
made decision of great interest to steamboats,
navigating the western rivers, Action brought
by Hardness & Son, against Church, owner and
q master of the steamer Bulletin No. 2, 10 recover
the value of quantity of merchandise shipped to
New Orleans, and thence on the Bulletin No. O. to
Napoleon Arkansas. The goods were landed on
the wharf boat at The place of delivery, and freight
paid for them. The steamer left, and soon after
The wharf boat and the goods were entirely de-
stroyed by fire. Suit brought by plaintiffs,
who reside in Philadelphia, 10 recover $685., 31,
The value thereof, alledging that no delivery had
been made. 1t was shown by the testimony, that
the custom on the Mississippi river was to deliver
goods TO the master of such wharf boat, and the
Court held that this sufficient to discharge the
defendant. "The moment the freight is deposited
in safety at the place of destination on the river,
that moment the carriers liability is terminated,
and that of the warehouse man commences; pro-
videj the place is well known, and the usual
place of deposit. His duty is to carry safely.
which duty is performed by delivering at the place
OF destination" Judgment was rendered for the
defendants.

1.-THE alleged slave instruction at New Or
leans is pronounced to be humbug by the papers
of that city. 1t is said the report started by
drunken slave, while laboring under mania potu.
He imagined in his fit that he had command ofan
army, and so. told free colored man, WHO inform
ed the police. When arrested, he was armed to
the teeth, having about him all the appointments
of complete arsenal. His accoutremenis con-
sisted of an immense cavalry sword, that glanced
like comet in the fitful light, six barreed re-
volver, large and ponderous knife that might
have cleft Hercules at blow, small magazine
of powder and ball, military chest containing
eighty dollars, and other articles scontraband O
war; On the next day, however, with the aid OF
morphene, he was restored TO his senses, and then
he knew nothing about it. The most intense ex-
element ensued; all the police and military were
ordered out, and even Gen: Twiggs rendered the
aid of all the U. S. forces on that station. The
whole city, in fact, active and noisy with al
the pride, pomp and Circumstance ofglorous war,
and had it not been for the effect of the mo pheme
on the drunken negro, there is no telling what
might not have happened.

INrERMExr OF ARTHUR srRINo.-The Pbiladel-
phia Bulletin contains affdavits from several per.
sons, who assisted in burying Arthur Spring, who
state that the coffin was given in their charge al
the medical college, by the physicians, who assu-
red them that it contained the body Of Spring. One
man testi6es that he washed the body, placed ii
in the coffin, screwed down the lid, and delivered
it to the undertaken. The latter, on account OF
the stencil, had previously left the room. The
man, who drove it to the ground, also testifes to
the disagreeable smell emitted from the,cof6n on
the way 10 the grave. As the coffin was SUISSE
lyopened. and is said to have contained only a
logof wood, the presumption is, that the body was
stolen after burial.
