Mrs. Laura A. Robinson, of Foxboro',
Mass, has been arrested on a charge of adul.

age, the widow of Abiathar Robinson, who
died after sickness of one week, on the Ist

cumstances connected with his death have
created suspicion against the accused. A

II know great, over-grown , first rate man

suliorv letter to the editor, "engaged in the
mercantile. business, who is much troubled 10
recolleet names, and who, one morning, with
pencil in hand, and quill behind his ear, called
out to his partner: Billy, what is John Sup.
plebeam's first name 7" And he never discoy
cred his mistake until he began to write it, when
ne forgot his last name; and with the same un-
CONSCIOUSNESS sang out: "Excuse me Billy, bu,

MASSACHUSETTS LEGIsLATURE.-In the Sc.
nate of Massachusetts on the 23d, the Special
Committee on Mr.. Walkers Liquor Bill sub
mitted TWO reports-the majority expressing
the opinion that it was inexpedient to legislate
on the subject, and the minority expressing
the opinion that the bill ought to pass. There
seems to be fierce struggle going on in the
minds OF the wise men of Massachusetts as to
whether they shall deprive themselves Of spiri'
tual privileges or not. The House, on Tues
day, rejected the resolution providing for the
erection Of monument to Webster, and the
Senate rejected the Hoosac tunnel bill.

THE FLOATING DoCK-FAlLURE.-Itw will be
recollected that few years since, some three
or four floating docks were constructed at diff
ferent navy yards in this country, by order Of
government, at an enormous expense. The
one at Pensacola cost $950000, and up to the
10th of this month remained without ever hay
ing been put to any practical use. On that
day, however, an attempt was made to dock
the frigate Columbia, which proved unsuccess
full. A correspondent of the Pcayune, who
was present, gives the subjoined account of it,
But to the docking of the Columbia. 1t was
not safe to attempt this outside of the bar,
understood. Early in the morning the water
was let into the lower cisterns, and up to near
ly noon the engines were kept at work, trying
to sink the dock 10 twenty three feet, the Co.
lumbia drawing twenty two feet at the stern,
but in vain. One corner was Brought down
to twenty-three feet, then the opposite one
but no efforts of the busy engines could lower
the other end 10 u greater depth than some
fourteen TO fifteen feet, and about noon il was
made known that the ship would not enter the
dock for the present!
| was told that the dock was sunk to a suffi.
cient depth some days ago, by the aid of bal
last and that then the greater part of this
ballast was removed. In fact the dock has
only two.thirds Of the buoyant capacity con
uacted for and even if it could be sunk so as
TO receive the Columbia, have great doubts
ifthe buoyancy is sufficient TO raise the ship
out Of the water.
Should the floating dock, which has been
regarded an important invention, prove to be a
failure, it will produce quite convulsion in the
world of naval architecture. 1t may be, how
ever, that the fault in the case noticed above
lies with the contractors. The "old gray
heads" of the navy have never, we believe.
looked upon the floating dock with a favorable
ave.
