THE AMERICAN CENsUs.-The Americans. who
always go ahead in every thing, have gone
ahead of us in their census for instead of limit
ing it as we do to human beings, the United
States have prepared statistical account of all
their cattle. We are rather surprised that the
Great Republic should have officially re sognized
the animal kingdom, and admit it to the same
tables with its own citizens. We should have
hardly thought it worth while to ascertain the
number of asses in America, and, indeed, if it
were proposed to do the same in Great Britain.
we should set the thing down as absurd, if not
impossible. One meets so many donkeys every
day of ones life, that to calculate the number
would be an endless task, and indeed the animal
is not always to be recognized. [Punch.

PRESIDENT WALKER NOT OVER
COME.

The last accounts from Lower California, re-
ceiyed by the Northern Light, are much more
favorable to the success Of the expedition com
manded by Captain, or Colonel, or President
Walker than those Immediately preceding
them Indeed, it was the general belief that
Walker and his band, after achieving remarka
BILE but temporary successes, had been entirely
" crushed OUT by superior Mexican force
1t was supposed that considerable portion Of
them had been cut off in detail and that the
balance, after a siege Of few days; had been
overcome and taken.
But the news brought by the Northern Light,
and published in our paper ofto-day, represents
the fibusters as having been eminently sue
cessful After having met with some reverses,
they were besieged by about one hundred Mex
leans and Indians, in an adobe house, from
which they made several sallies, which resulted
in no considerable success to the one or dam
age to the other. Finally they availed them
selves Of cold and rainy night, (the l4th,
and made a successful attack on their besiegers,
who were benumbed with cold. The latter
fled, leaving arms, horses, a brass feld-piece,
and all their camp equipage.
1t is also said that another band of two hun.
dred and fifty, who went out in the barque
Anita to join Walker, have made landing,
and in all probability have formed junction
with Walkers force, by which he will in all
likelihood be enabled to maintain his supre1
macy We have already expressed our opinion
as to the character of this expedition, and it is
needless to say anything more on that subject.
We refer our readers to the news which will be
found in detail in another column.

A TOUCHING INSTANCE OF MoTHERLY AT.
FEcTIoN.--Mary, Countess Of Orkney, was deaf
and dumb, and married in 1853 by signs. She
lived with her husband, Mnrrough, first Mar,
quis of Thomond, who was also her first cousin,
his seat, Rostellan, on the harbor of Cork
Shortly after the birth Of her first child, the
nurse, with considerable astonishment, saw the
mother cautiously approach the cradle in which
the infant was sleeping, evidently full Of some
deep design. She having perfectly assured
herself that the child really slept, took out a
large stone, which she had concealed under her
shawl, and to the horror Of the nurse-who,
like all persons Of the lowest order in her coun.
try, indeed in most countries, was fully i'm
pressed with the idea of the peculiar cunning
and malignity Of "dumbies' seized it with the
intent to fling it down vehemently. Before
the nurse could interfere, the countess had
flung the stone; not, however, as the servant
had apprehended at the child, but on the floor.
Of course it made a great noise. The child
Immediately awoke and cried. The countess
who had looked with maternal eagerness to the
result of her experiment fell on her knees in a
transport Of joy. She had discovered that her
child possessed sense that was wanting in
herself lE-Aneclotes Of The Aristocracy.

refuge in Spain. But if the Duke of Alba
should be elevated to the throne, il win be
necessary to provide fund to enable him TO
maintain his power, his position, and his royal
state. The sale of Cuba 10 the United States
would immediately provide that fund. AT pre-
sent there seems to be this difficulty in the way
Of the transfer of that island to us: the Co,tes
will not, under the present administration, con.
sent to it.
The whole matter, in nutshell is, that
successful revolution in Spain, brings about the
immediate acquisition of Cuba.

WASHINGTON IRVING.

It is said that this world-renowned author,
who has done more to illustrate the literature
Of his country than any other author that
America has produced, is now engaged in pre-
pairing for the press the two concluding vol
umes Of his works. The purity of his style is
only equalled by the purity Of his sentiments.
His conceptions are full of truth and full Of
poetry He has written some of the most
finished and beautiful books in the language.
Nor are his productions such as create tran
sient interest and bring Aeeting and tempo
rary fame. When such books as "Uncle
Toms Cabin" shall be forgotten, the good,
pure, true books of the accomplished and amia-
BILE Irving viii be read and valued.
We cordially unite with the Detroit Daily
Times in the sentiments which it thus exposes !:
"We are delighted to learn that the world
will receive the entire writings of this truly
great man, revised and published under his
own eye. Happy old age, to be spent in pre-.
pairing for the press the fresh thoughts Of his
youth, the early pieces that gained his first
laurels, and the works of his mature years, that
have placed him in literary position which
few men either in England or our country have
ever attained But happier still seems, the
duty when we remember that in his delightful
review he Will meet with no bitter controversies,
no angry words of contention. No impurity
will be there to make him blush. No severe
sarcasm will remind him of having planted a
thorn even in the bosom of an enemy. What
writer, either in the old world or new, can look
over the productions of lifetime and see so
little that he could wish to erase? Through.
out the entire seventeen volumes, we presume
the eye cannot discover line at which modesty
could blush, not a single coarse Jest, not a
single wilful misrepresentation, not an ungen-
erous sentiment, not malignant sneer for the
same kind heart always guided his pen, the
same pure spirit ever directed his genius"

"WHo MADE YoU?"--One Of the ladies con-
nected with the methodist Five Points Mis-
sion" who has under, her charge some thirty
little boys, called them together on the morn
ing Of Christmas, TO perfect them in their an
swers to questions she intended to put to them
before the visitors during the afternoon. After
arranging them properly, the first boy on the
right, in answer to the question, "who made
youT was TO say, "God;p the next "of
what were you mado 2" to reply, "the dust ofthe
earth, and so on through the catechism. The
all-important moment having arrived the little
shayers" were told TO stand up. The little
head boy, it seems, was missing but the fact
being unnoticed by the teacher, she proceeded
with the question, "who made your" which
ELECTED the following laughable answer: 1
was made out Of de dirt Of the 'ert; but the
little feller what God made has got the belly
ache and gone home.--N, ], Mirror.

The Story OF A BoNNET.--When at Paris,
| had purchased one of the bonnets Of the sea-
son, which, as every one knows, are small be-
yond precedent, without rejecting that was
bound for country where the ladies display
in nothing their characteristic modesty and re-
serve more than in bonnets--at least for the
ordinary promenade-retiring into profound
depths Of Leghorn and lace, and sometimes
clustering themselves in the shades of huge
"uglies."
The Partisan millner of whom ] purchased
the aforementioned bonnet who was re-
duced comtesse and had her arms blazoned on
the plafond Of her showroom, was so complai.
SAINT as to go into ecstacies over the effect when
tried it on, crying, C'est .joli! cha,mant,
parfaa!" saw that it was becoming, pecu-
liarly so and she assured me it was not dear;
so took it, with no fearful looking for of cock
ney Indignation, surely. Well as descended
from my chamber, equipped for my expedition
into town, noticed that the friend who was to
accompany me looked little struck up; but
concluded it was with admiration at the ton
of the thing and perhaps it was. At the sta
ton, while waiting for the train, / had strong
suspicion that a remark / overheard of My
eyes them is poppies,' referred to triAe il
the decorative way belonging to my bonnet
In the railway carriage found myself an OBJ
ject of rather curious regard but this attri-
buted to certain foreign air may havepicked
up on the continent and it was not till was
walking down Regent street that / was con-
vinced as to the cause of the sensation pro.
duced. "The head and front of my offending"
was my unfortunate bonnet. 1t was stared at
and commented upon without mercy; shop
boys pronounced it the last Paris stunner; Y
shopgirls lifted their eyebrows and said "Oh,
myl" and an impudent young footman, rs he
passed me, looked up into my face with q shrll
significant whistle. AT last, in very desperar
ton, rushed into o shop and purchased
black lace veil, with which quite extinguished
my "stunner," poppies and all.
