Great Bore and t.anI,.,I So,

The Cincinnati Enquirer, one Of the aeknowl.

following good one on the leaders congreaated
IN the General Assembly:

UNCLE Tom IN RUssIA--A correspondent of
the London Daily News, writes from Moscow
as follows:
"The celebrated Uncle Tom,' that remark
able negro, who has already encountered so
many strange adventures, continues its course
through the world. In Russia he is becoming
known through the medium of very negligent
translation of Mrs. Stoves book, and enjoys
great reputation The police do not interfere
although the circulation of the work remains as
yet unauthorized. In Russia, you are aware,
enfranchisement is the order of the day; per-
haps this has something 10 do with the non
interference of the officials
AS soon as the first copies of the work ar
rived, there were so few of them that they made
the tour of the town; being let out to hire for
two hours at time, and thus passing from one
hand to another of the Muscovite aristocracy.
Trusty servants were sent from house to house
with them wrapped up in silk, or bastLe, with
as much care as a newborn infant, and hidden
in little portfolio. To-day thousands of I'm
Gle Toms circulate in the capital, and am in
formed that very distinguished man is at this
moment engaged upon good Russian trans
lalion."

Fanny Perm on Widows.

Fanny is going il on high figure this morn.

L hate widows. They are the very d-l
I've heard the heather called benighted
they've sense enough 10 burn widows when
their husbands die, and that's a step further in
civilization that we have taken. There's no.
thing like 'em. II they make up their mind to
marry man it's done. know one that was
terribly afraid Of thunder and lightning, and
every time storm came up she would run in
to Mr.. Smiths house, (he was a widower) aud

man was half distracted for fear she would get
Killed, and the consequence was, she was Mrs.

Then there's that little blue eyed Widow
Wilkins. Didn't she drop her prayer book
coming out of church, for my handsome hus-
band to pick up ? And didn't l see him squeeze
her hand when he handed il back to her
And when told him long rigmaroe of a
story, going home, to divert his mind from the
little mink, didn't he answer yes and no at

didn't he the next morning put salt in his cof,

tell Samivel it is my request he should marry
her when | am gone, and that will pull wool
over the eys of the people, and save his credit
for he'll have her if an earthquake should be
the consequence.
It's astonishing widows should BIZ so indeli-
cate as to doff their weeds. It's nothing moro
nor less than a walking advertisement for an
other husband. Mrs. Lee was spending short
time at the sea shore in her new regimentals,
when one of the ladies at the tea table, struck
with sudden thought, said, very innocently-
by the way, Mrs. Lee, where is your hus-
band | should have been very sorry to
have told where l thought he was, for the way
he used TO swear when he talked was awful to

Now, what glorious example I'd be to the
sex if Providence should see fit to make me

but I'd do it, and wouldn't so much as look
at a man unless it was Tom King Wonder

SHOOTING OF YOUNG MAN BY YOUNG La
DY, IN A BALL RooM.-We are informed of the
following particulars of shooting case which
occurred at Grey's tavern, at Pea Cove, in Old
town, last evening. The company had assem-
bed for dance, and had gone through sever
al dances, when, as one William Bowman, of
Upper Saltwater, was dancing down the side
of the hall, where young lady of Upper Still
water (whose name we suppress and her
brother, were sitting, she rose and discharged
both barrels of double-barrelled pistol at him,
the ball of one of which took effect in the back
of his shoulder, and the other entered the
wall. The young lady who was dancing with
him was somewhat burnt in the face by the
powder. A great excitement ensued. The
young lady was perfectly calm, and stated that
she intended to kill him-that she came for
that purpose. She said the reason she did not
shoot him in the drawing room was because
she could not get near enough to him. The
reasons for the act, she said, were we'll known
to all present. If she could only have killed
him, she said she would have been perfectly
satisfied We are informed that the impellng
cause of this desperate attempt TO take life and
wreak vengeance, is well known in the vicinity
where the parties reside, and is the one which
almost always lies at the bottom of such acts.
We understand he was arrested the day before
for breach of promise, and obtained bail. The
young lady is said to be reputable, and the SYM
pathy of those who knew her is decidedly in
her favor. After the act she went away with
her brother, and no attempt was made to arrest
her. How seriously the man is wounded we
cannot learn. The ball was broken up in con-
sequence Bangor (Me,) MercTg

The Bible.

How comes it that this little volume. com.
posed by humble men, in a rude age. when
art and science were but in their childhood, has
exerted more influence on the human mind and
on the social system than all the other books
put together? Whence comes il that this book
has achieved such marvellous changes in the
opinion OF mankind-has banished idol worship
has abolished infantcide-has put down DO
lygamy and divorce-exalted the condition Of
Woman-raised the standard of public morality
created for families that blessed thing chris
tan home-and caused its other triumphs by
causing benevolent Institutions, open and ex-
panslve, to spring up as with the wand of en-
chantment? What sort of book is this, that
even the winds and waves Of human passions
obey 1t? What other engine of social improve
ment has operated so long, and yet lost none of
its virtue? Since it appeared, many boasted
plans Of amelioration have been tried and failed,
many codes of jurisprudence have arisen, and
run their course, and expired. Empire after
empire has been launched upon the tide of time,
and gone down, leaving no trace upon the wa.
ters. But this book is still going about doing
good, leavening society with its holy principles,
cheering the sorrowful with its consolation
Strengthening the tempted, encouraging the
penitent, calming the troubled spirit, and smooth
ing the pillow of death. Can such book be
the offspring of human genius Does not the
vastness of its effects demonstrate the excellen-
cy of the power to be of God

AWFUL ACCIDENT AND DEATH.-We have a
verbal account of an awful accident, at or near

Mrs. Kyle got into chair in front of the fire
TO wind up the clock A small bottle of tur-
pentine was standing in the clock or on the
mantel near it, which fell to the herth The
turpenLine took fire, and at once communicated
the flame to every part of her clothing. She
ran to the chamber in which her mother Mrs.
Fogle was lying sick. Mr.. Kyle, the husband,
was out of doors, and upon hearing the screams
of both wife and mother-in-law, came in, and
discovering the carpet on fire supposed that was
the cause Of the alarm, and proceeded to put
out the fire. On going up stairs he found his
wife enveloped in flames, and her mother also
seriously burnt. He succeeded in extinguish-
ing the flames, but not until his wife was burned
almost to crisp. and her mother also serious
ly. Mrs. X. lived but a very short time. Mrs.
Fogle and Mr., Kyle we're both very much in
iured.- Marietta Int.
