inches in length, and the immagc as
perfect as when thyewn upon canvas

twenty-seven animalcules taken from
a bee, which measures on paper about
two inches in length. Transverse &C.

similar manner, exhibiting the pours
Of rattan about quarter Of an inch in

THERE 10 STILL SOME HOPE FOR
THE WoRLD.-A great Prophet-(we
have lost bis name) has said, "tbe world
can never come to its end until the
fools in it are dead" On Tuesday
last We we're pleased to find a pretty
lair representation Of this large and
respectable class Of citizens in the
street-small fools. and large. black
fools and white.
We all have veneration for ancient
aud honorable custom; and when Mar
di Gras comes, like to see fools make
themselves manifest, if for no other
good reason, than that it calls the rag
ged, pugnosed generation behind us
together. and offers kind Of gala.day
for them. Besides this good result.
how would it be possible for wise men
to be known from fools, if It were not
for such days IS this; provided for in
that correct and good book, of saints
and martyrs the Catholic Almanac ?
Is man to be accounted wise for do.
ing nothing? Is wisdom manifested
in the cut ofthe coat; and fools known
intuitively ? by no means. Hence
the necessity Of their coming out in
mass, to show their strength in the
Community. Wise men, and good
men are united in societies and meet
to ogle one other every day in the year.
and why not uphold the day, when
fool meets foop' to Interchange the
hand Of fellowship? The questson re.
solves itself into this; are we not bored
to death during the year, by wise
suggestions from the learned; and
does not that great engine Of wisdom
the newspaper press, keep throwing
out heavy articles, ladened to the very
waters edge with wisdom ? It is even
10; and yet the world profits nothing.
Then who would interfere with Mardi
gras and all fools day? No patriot
would do it, because it is known that
were fools interdicted; the|courts would
close, and the occupation Of Othello
vouldbs gone.

SENSIBLE VIEWS.

The Evansville (Indiana) Enquirer in ex-
pressing its views in relation to the Nebraska
bill, uses the following language:
Considering this as Constitutional question,
we have only to ask: Has Congress any right
to exact anything from new State, except
that it shall be a republic, and shall support
the Constitution? Has Congress right to
say to the people Of a territory, you shall not
employ slave labor? Shall Congress say that
California may come in without slavery, and
Nebraska shall not come in with slavery !?
Does the Constitution give Congress tn e right
to prescribe the institutions which they shall
adopt, to the people of a Territory
Indiana came in as a free State, suppose
that the sovereign people should now desire to
adopt slavery, have they not right to do it !?
If Congress may legislate on this question, it
may legislate both ways, and may re fnse to adj
init free States as well as slave st ates. The
only ground, then, for us to take is hat estab-
lished by the compromise Of 1850 that The
people Of the Territories shall decide this ques-
tion for themselves. This is the only constitu-
tional and only common sense grou nd"
Washington sentinel. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1853-1855, 1854-02-16

principle involved in the Nebraska bill in the
adoption of the federal Constitution; in the
approval Of the compromise of 1850; and in
the election Of Franklin Pierce to the Presi-
dency upon platform Of principles embodied
in certain resolutions, among which, are the
following: III ~
"ResolUed, Isl. That the federal govern
ment is one of limited powers, derived solely
from the Constitution, and the grants of power
therein ought to be strictly construed by all the
departments of the governments and that it is
inexpedientand dangerous to exercise doubtful
constitutional powers"
seth. That Congress has no power under
the Constitution to interfere with or control the
domestic institutions of the several States, and
that such States are the sole and proper judges
Of everything appertaining to their own affairs
not prohibited by the Constitution"
The press, too, at this time tells US that the
people are in favor of this measure. Whv, then.
should Congress delay, when delay win allow
the abolitionists and factionists time to get MP
an excitement on the subject? The question,
the constitutional question, has been settled
and it but remains for Congress now to carry
its principles into operation.

ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE.

1t is rare that fiction paints so romantic a
tale as will be found in another column of oc-
currences in California. The arrival and
splendid triumphs Of Miss Heron have scarce
ly parallel in dramatic history. The Lady is
well known in this city, and not less appre-
ciated for her private excellence than admired
in her professional capacity. May she have
health to sustain her in her arttuous duties, and
may fortune as well as fame crown her labors.
