.Not sucb a darncd foo, as that~

A young lady was recently arrested in
New Orleans, on the levee, where she had
been observed by an officer, for several days
in succession, walking and weeping bitterly.
Her forlorn and anguishing appearance, ex-
cited the suspicion of the officer, she medta-
ted suicidal plunge into the bosom of the
Mississippi, and he accordingly took her be-
fore the Recorder, to explain her singular
conduct. The amiable Recorder informed
her, that suicide was very wicked, and ASKED
why she wanted to drown herself. A smile
came over the face of the maideL, when she
replied that she was female and lover,
with all the endearing instincts of her sex;
that the object Of her affections had gone
up the river, and that her only objects in vis-
iting the wharves were, that she might look
upon the course taken by the steamer Cd
which her lover departed, weep for bis alb
sence, and pray for his speedy return; but as
for drownding herself. said she, with empha-
sis-Io'Rt think Tn such a drrned foo, as that.
The Recorder could not doubt the genuine
ness of the explanation, and was so much
affected thereby that he with few words of
consolation, such as bachelors only can give
in such cases, "toli her to CO." The reader
must not doubt for a moment, that this melt
ing scene did actually occar, nor that the fe-
male heart is susceptible Of feelings an 4
even stronger emotions Of affection for the
coaser sex; but as for US, we would prefer tc
"see the papers" first. Such scenes gener-
ally occur at least thousand miles from
any place.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22nd.

The ca'oric ship Ericsson arrived at Alex.
andria yesterday afternoon from the mouth OF
the Potomac, where she had lain at anchor
tor twenty-seven hours, during the late
snow and thick weather
Captain Lowber weighed anchor at half.
past 9 O'Clock last Wednesday morning. at
Sandy Hook, and in pursuance of instruc-
tons, stood to the eastward in the face of a
strong gale and heavy sea. He kept his
course for eight miles, when the wind shifted
to the northwest. He then stood in shore in
face ofthe gale. During these two gales
the ship stood the test nobly, and though she
pitched her bowsprit under water, with her
lee guard immersed, her engine performed
with the utmost regularity, the wheels ma
king six and 4 half turns minute with en-
tire uniformity.
Not the slightest motion was perceptable
in the frame work and bracing of the engines.
After the ship and engines were thus fully
tested, Captrin Lowber shaped his course for
the Chesapeake, and in going up the bay,
against gale from the N. N. E., encoun-
tered heavy snow storm. On approaching
the mouth OF the Potomac, the weather be-
came SO thick that the pilot declined to 90
further, and the ship came to anchor at 10
O'Clock this morning.
Inc engine had then been in operation for
13 hours, without being stopped for moment
OF requiring any adjustment, only one fireman
having been on duty at time during the
whoie trip. The consumption of fuel was
under five tons in the twentv.iour hours.
capt. Sands, of the U. s. Navy, who was
on board to witness the performance, is de-
lighted with the result, and saws that he
would willingly go to Auetralia in her
Thus the great principle of the new motor is
a demonstrated reality.

MARRYING IN FUN-The oft-repeated drama
OF marrying in sport to repent in earnest was
reenacted to an interested audience at Haw
kinsvile, y. Y, few evenings since. At a
social party. the conversation turned on matri-
muny, when young gentleman said he would
get married If any one would have him. A
young lady present accepted his proposition
in the same spirit of testing, and after some
preliminaries they stood up and Justice uni
ted them in the usual manner. They separ-
ated when the party broke up, and the next
day the lady was drought to-" by receivino
from the justice certificate of marriage, duly
executed. The young gentleman, OH learn
ing how sthings was working" said in man.
" way, that though he had no thoughts al
such termination, yet if she was willing
he would abide by the bargain made in
sport, and make her as good husband az
possible. At last accounts this was the posi-
ton of the matter.

JUST LIKE HIM.-The notorious John Petit,
has made one speech in Congress at last
which with the exception of its brevity, is
John Petit all over. When the Pacific Rail
road Bill was under discussion in the u. s.
Senate, few days since, Mr.. Petit arose
and said
Mr.. Speaker. l shall vote against this bill
because The Wings are for it,
He would ask no other reason for opposing
a God in heaven, than that the Wings were
known to be for this God. Probably this is
the reason Petit has, for opposing religion
and religious sects, and everything decent in
society-because the Wings favor these
things. Probably it is the reason he is con-
tinually making dirty BLACKBOARD of him
self - because he knows Wings are op-
posed to dirty blackguards.

T OT We had most delightful earthquak
last week. Every body pleased with it.

Cry OF CAIRo.--The few people OF the
world who have never seen Cairo, are scarce
ly aware that, world renowned as it is, il is
made up of about a score of houses and a few
fat-boats, occupied by two or three hundred
human beings. Its wide spread reputation,
however, is not the result of its size, nor bus
mess, but of the great advantage of its po-
sition. IL the reader will take proper map.
observe its centrality, the number of navga-
bic rivers whose waters here concentrate, the
railroads in course of construction, pointing
towards it, he will not wonder why its name
is familiar, through our own and many other
countries. Why the city, the Importance of
the site seems to demand, has not been built,
is because the public could not get foot
hold-monopoly prevented. This enerva-
ting influence will soon cease, however, and
give capital and energy as the world choose
to use it, a chance to preform their part, to
whose wealth and Importance, our country
nov can turn their eyes, ultimately, as one
without an equal in our prosperous Union.

Railroads,

The last number of the American Rail-
road Journal contains the annual reports OF
several ofthe leading companies in the East
showing a general prosperity and healthy
condition of all. The affairs of the Erie
road vet remain somewhat mixed and embar-
assed. owing to the want of competency in
the early managers of that great work.
Their credit in market however, remains I'M
impaired.
The Terre Haute and Indianapolis road
exhibits highly fattering business during
the past year, portion of which time it has
not been in full operation. The Company
sustains high credit, and both its stock, and
bonds command a large premium in market
>. The stock of the five companies const.
tuting the Albany and Buffalo railroad line
commands in market, on an average, pre-.
MUM of thirty-seven dollars share, thus
showing a steady advance since the opening
of the Erie and other competing roads.

Though in our opinion the British possess
ions in Honduras are not worth a squabble;
thoughw we think Sir John Packinton, when
he constituted it, July last, the island of Ro-
atan. Bonacca, Barbaret, Helena, and Morat,
lying in the Bay of Honduras, into British
colony, committed an act of very great folly;
and though we have always condemned our
absurd protectorate of the Mosquito coast,
nevertheless, to see the Senate o. the United
States attempting to pervert the obvious Ian
guagc OF most useful treaty, and to wriggIe
ou' OF its obligations, is, in our judgment,
the most deplorable of all sights. For, if on
the Senate ofthe United. States, the break
water of their government foreign nations
cannot rely, where can they seek security
for any engagements they have interchan-
ged!-(LOndon Ne,cs:
