JAPHET IN SEARCH OF FATHER.-A young
gentleman of this city, while wandering out on
Common street yesterday afternoon, in the
neighborhood of the swamp, that region where
the streets dwinde away and the dwelling of
man disappears caught q strange sort of sound,
which at first he took for the whine of diseon-
tented goat but imagining something peculiar
in the tone he proceeded to the spot, and found
a fresh, fat, healthy looking infant, apparently
about week old, wrapped in q few austin
cloths and slowed away under the panels Of a
fence, in the midst of vacant lot and u con-
siderable distance from any dwelling. The
child was squalling Justify and appeared to be
sadly in want of his dinner, and although our
friend was oyerrunning with the milk of human
kindness, that of course was not exactly the sort
of thing upon which to suckle a newborn babe.
He accordingly started for the police office with
the young chap in his arms On Heyia street
he met gentleman of his acquaintance,
! accompanied by his wife. whose baby, little
| older than the one our friend had SO unexpect-
eddy found at his breast, was borne behind
by servant, and might have been taken, so far
| as physical resemblance went, for twin brother
of the young stranger. The lady, and she was
indeed one in every sense of the term, interested
herself in the case, proceeded to the police office
and finally obtained possession of the helpless
little outcast and carried him away, declaring
her intention of adopting, protecting and rearing
him up to mans estate.

A CANDID TRArroR.-The editor of South
Carolina paper in allusion to the passage of the
Nebraska bill, remarks that he never believed
it would prove of any practical benefit to the
South since slavery would never find its way
into the new territory; but he rejoices never
theless at its passage, inasmuch as itmay bring
about dissolution Of the Union
1t is against this darling project of South
Carolina politicians that we have eve set our
faces. We repeat what we said few days ago,
that the legitimate fruits of such victory might
have been anticipated and we have no doubt
they were, since every disunionist from the
South went in for the measure while many
Southern men, who were friendly to the Com
promise and the Union, opposed it.

The Nebraska Bill.


The Delta says that when the Crescent speaks
Of the author Of this measure as demagogue
it means Douglas; and yet it has been the
constant cry against that gentleman that he
in roducedsthis bill for political, personal aims
His demagoguism certainly is not very profta-
Bile one.
So far we coincide with our neighbor. II is
not the first instance in history where yaulting
ambition has oyerleaped ITSELF
But the Delta proceeds to remark:
1t has very much the appearance Of that sors
of patriotism( perhaps the newspapers o. tle
day styled him a demagoguel OF the homah'
who leaped into the yawning chasm WHICH
threatened to engulf Old Rome
Now we are not sure that the Delta,s aiiusion
to Curtius is very happy one; unless It can
be shown that lie aspired to reach the consul
ship through the Z yawning chasm'' into which
he leaped.
Whether, as the Delta suggests, the +" news
papers of the day" styled him a demagogue
we are entirely in the dark; inasmuch as oul
6les are somewhat defective and don't extend
so far back

treated by Dr. Elliott, the well known veteri-
nary surgeon, and we advise all those who
would avoid "quack nostrums y in dangerous
disease to place their animals in his hands in

:" rheumatism" DR.. E. insists that it has as

The Floridian and Journal says that an ARRAY
occurred near Tallahasse on Monday evening,
between Thomas Gaskins and Troy Ferrell, both
citizens of that equity, in which Terrell was shot
by pistol ball through the breast. At last
accounts the wounded man was alive, but little
hope was had of his recovery. Gaskins gave
himself up and is now in the hands of the
Sheriff We forbear comments, as the matter
will undergo judicial investigation.

F1REs.-At about three o'clock, yesterday
morning, fire broke out in bakery on Race
street, near Magazine, entirely consuming the
building and contents, together with three or
four small frame dwellings adjoining. The fire
lasted until daylight The property, We under
stood, belonged to Mr.. Lewis Feltz, and was
mainly covered by insurance.
While this was yet burning, another COM
menced in grocery store, belonging to Mr.. A
Thompson, at No. 80 Commerce street, one door
from Lafayette street. The building was saved
through the exertions of the fremen, but its
contents were pretty much destroyed by fire and
water together. The most unfortunate part of
the affair was the falling in of the second floor,
carrying with it two brave fellows, John
O'Rourke, of Fire Go. No. 13, and a man named
Fisk, of No Is, who were buried beneath a pile
of baggng and other material, and were badly
bruised and burned before they could be extri-
tricated. Fisk was for some time considered to
be in critical condition, but we understand
he is likely to recover. Later in the day q
portion of the walls of this building fell, and
number of iremen, who were at work upon the
spot had a very narrow escape.

zinc Paints.

In consequence Of our market having been,
heretofore, so sparingly supplied with this arti-
Gle, it is not to be wondered at that the many
advantages it possesses over lead is not SO well
understood as at the North, where it has been
thoroughly and extensively tested for the past
four years.
The initiative step has been taken by the New
Jersey Zinc Paint Company of appointing an
agent for this State, whom they will keep con-
stantly supplied The New Jersey Zinc is the
oldest company, and, we believe, the only one Of
any extent in this country. The reputation of
their paints is firmly established, and the No.
or snow white will compare fayorably with that
manufactured by the celebrated Montague Com
pany Of France, while the price is much lower.
In directing public attention to the introduce
tion Of the zinc paints in our market, We pro
pose to point out o few Of the benefits to be de-
rived from its general use, when it will be seen
Shat it is of more Importance than it would ap-
pear at first glance
On the score of health, which has more weight
in our mind than all else, it is entirely free
from poisonous properties, and apartments just
painted with white zinc may be slept in with
impunity. Lead, on the other hand, is known
to be destructive of health, and often life, and
sleeping rooms painted with lead paints, accord
ing to the best authorities, should not be used
for weeks after. White zinc retains it's brill
! lianoy and Wilderness, becomes exceedingly hard
and durable, and is easily cleaned by washing
White lead turns yellow, requires frequent
securing to be kept clean, which soon removes
the paint.
White zinc will cover SO per cent more sur
face than the same weight of white lead, thus
rendering it more economical, to say nothing OF
the greater durability and beauty of the nc
These are few of the advantages of the zinc
over lead, and sufficient, we should suppose, to
induce at least trial We have examined into
the matter to our own satisfaction, and hope the
result of our convictions will cause others to
regard it worthy of consideration. Among the
numerous testimonials before us, We notice re-
port Of special committee appointed by the
tNew York Board of Assistant Aldermen.
wherein it was recommended, and resolution
adopted, that the Commissioner of Repair
and Supplies, and all other officers and agent
of the city, be instructed to use the New Jer

Mr.. PRENTICE AND MOB LAw.-With sur
prise and regret we have observed that many of
the newspapers of Louisville, and of other por-
tions of Kentucky, have recently INDUCED IN
the fercest invective against and vilest abuse OF
George D. Prentice, for pursuing course OF
conduct which too few editors observe under
similar circumstances, and which, when %
served, should entitle him who adopts it to com
mendation and respect. 1t is difficult to under
stand how a person, possessed OF reasoning
powers and the ability to judge between right
and wrong, could assail the editor of public
journal with torrent of abuse and SANDER
because, from considerations of duty or other
wise, he had chosen to remain silent upon the
merits Of a case pending In q court of justice
until it had been pronounced upon, or because
he had, after the decision was given, denounced
in severe terms the conduct of q riotous and
lawless mob.
Kentucky has reason to be proud of such q
citizen as Mr.. Prentice, one of the most gifted
poets and powerful and piquant prose writers Of
the day and we are much mistaken if the gene
raj sentiment Of the people of that State re-
spends to the calumny and blackguardism which
have been cast upon him, except with wither-
ing rebuke or contemptuous disregard.

ofLafayette county, which commenced its session
last week, empanneled a jury TO try the case of
the State Us. Jones, indicted for murder The
trial closed on last Thursday, and it was soon
ascertained that the jury could not agree. They
came in and informed the Court that there was
no possibility of agreeing, and asked to be dis
charged. But the Attorney for the State and
those for the defence were inexorab1e. They
would not consent to their discharge, and CON
sequently the Court ordered the sheriff to take
them to their room again, and there to keep
them until they agreed; and that they xere not
to be permitted to dispense. etc Alter being
kept under lock and key for seyefal DAYS, one Of
the jurors nude his escape about taybreak on
last Monday morning, leaving tile other eleven
absconding juror has not been heard of since
and it may be that he has fled from the State.

The CUBAN FnBusrER MOVEMENT N
Y. Express of the 10Th says:

In pursuance of call, addressed to the off,
GERS of the " Expedition for the invasion of
Cuba" meeting was held on Saturday evening
at No. 324 Broadway. Among them we recog-
nized several who had served in the Mexican
war, in the New York and other regiments OF
Volunteers, and, be the case as it may, there
were certainly those among them very capable
of being in earnest,
The proceedings of these parties are of course
quite private, and, having apparently merely
used this public room as place for meeting to
gether, they repaired to some more retired
quarters to hold their counsel of war.
