Is IT IGNORANCE OR IMPUDENCE!-- The Washington Union says: "ltseems to be yet unknown in certain quarters that the public treasury is under the pro- lection of Democratic Administration" What can be more ridiculous, absurd, or disgusting than such stuff! The inn plication of the Union is that the public money is only safe when the Democrats are in pow CT. And this, too, in the face of the fact, patent, notorious, known to every body, unless it may be the ed itors of the Government organ, tha more of the peoples money was em bezzled and made away with by Demo cratic office holders, from ls3 | 10 164l than the aggregate of all the other losses incurred by the Government from the adoption of the Constitution down to the close of Mir.

gsg@The deadly character of the gas escaping from charcoal fire is well known. An example of this is shown in the following from the Cincinnati Gazette. Persons cannot be too care ful when burning the above coal. The Gazette says, that on Saturday after noon, while a young man on Walnut street, near Fifth street, was employed in kindling a charcoal fire, he was seen to give a sudden leap, and then fall forward as if dead. He was immedi- ately picked up by some men who were passing at the time. He soon recov- cred, and when asked what was the matter with him, he replied that his head and face felt badly, and he sup posed somebody had knocked him down. While kindling the fire he had been inhaling the gas, which, notwith- standing the fire was out of doors, produced this unusual and powerful effect.

WHAT IS AN EDIroR?-The Roches- ter Times answers this question by stating that an Editor is one who reads the newspapers, selects miscellany, and writes articles on all subjects. sets type, reads proof, work at press, folds papers up, and directs papers, and sometimes carries them, prints jobs, runs on errantia saws wootT; vgE-s.5= r4. the garden, takes care of the babies aud rocks the cradle, talks to all the patrons who call, patiently receives blame for thousand things that never were nor never could be done, has scarce time to enjoy the quite of ma twe's restorative,' sleep, and esteems himself peculiarly fortunate t he IS not assaulted and battered by some un- principled demag ogue, who lovespuppet shows, and hires the rabble with glass of brandy to raise him to some petty office. That's an editor.

THE HONOR OF UGLINEss. It is cu- rious to observe that an ugly face is generally the indication of humorous and witty mind; it suggests innumera- ble exhilarating witticisms in the wearer himself, and is the cause of wit in oth- CTS. There is scarcely merry, shrewd, witty fellow in fictitious history but has the honor of ugliness attributed to him. Esop was avery ugly little hunchback ; uglier still was Socrates, no less man of wit, and a man of humor, than a philosopher. The heroes of Rabelias were famous for their personal defor- mity; Sancho Panza, his master, and Rosinante, were, in their several con- ditions, absoutely patterns of this in terestlng qualification. Hudibras and Ralpho were still more conspicuously ugly. Scarron, the favorite wit of France, was the most deformed little creature lovely woman ever allowed herself to be coupled to.
