The English reading public is very wrathful
just now on ascertaining the fact that Ma
cauly's new volume, over which he has been
laboring for years, covers so little time. One
Of the correspondents gives the following
account of the state of feeling:
~ history of the reigns of Anne, and at
least three of Georges? Oh dear-and dea,
indeed it is-nothing Of the sort; but for q
history of four years of William and Mary.

rative to within memory of men still living.

large octave pages Of letter press for chron-
icle of four years century and half ago
If that be not the romance of history it is diff
icult to say what is. Opiumeating has surely
bemudded Bab's brain, and caused him to be
oblivious of the admonition of his old friend
Sidney Smith, who used to entreat long winded
writers to remember the food, for since Noah's
day century made rather serious hole in a
mans chronology. Why, at the rate 7. NJ B

A terrible Railroad accident occurred at
Pittsburgh, January l, near Darlington, in
Beaver country, on the Ohio and Pennsylvania
railroad. The three o'clock train going west
came in COLLISION with the fast train coming
east at Darlington Summit. The accident was
quite disastrous in its effects. Four persons
we're killed-Mr. Stokes, the agent Of the New
castle and Erie Stage Company, man named
Johnston, and two other men whose names
are not mentioned. About sixteen we're
wounded, among them the engineer of the ex.
press train and the fireman, the latter having
one arm shattered. The locomotives and cars
were badly shattered, both trains being under
full Roadway. The accident was caused by the
watch of the conductor of the fast train being
thrss-quartsrs Of an hour slow.

The year just commenced is the latter part
Of the eighteth and beginning of the eighty
first year of the Independence of the United
States the 6569th year of the Julian period I;
the latter part Of the SCI 9Th and beginning of
the 56l7th year since the creation of the world
according to the Jews the 2609th year since
the foundation of Rome according to Varro
the 2632d year of the Olympiads; the latter
part Of the l272d and beginning of the l273d
year OF the twelve lunations since the Hegira
or fight Of Mahomet, which took place on the
10th of July, A. d. 622.
The Alphonsine tables make this year the
7089th from the creation the Greek church
the 6362d, and some eastern churches date it
sixteen years later than the Greek church.
The Chinese adopt the Sexagenary cycle, of
which sixty cycles have now elapsed, their era
commencing 200 B. c., so they now deem
themselves in the year 4555. The Talmud
makes this year 1900; the Septuagent 1851 (;
and the Samaritan Pentateuch 6565.
Amid All the abstruse and painful cacula-
tons which have been made relative to the
chronological progress of the world, the Christ
ian era is undoubtedly the most correct and
authentic. According to that the world was
created $3.50 years ago the deluge swept the
earth 35ll years ago, and 234s years before
Christ; and we are now living in the year
1856, dating from the Christian era.

Yesterday, Governor Johnson's official term
expired; today, his successor will be installed.
The retiring Governor will carry with him to his
mountain home the best wishes of his many
warm personal and political friends in Eastern
Virginia. Governor Johnson's term of SER
vice has been eventful and laborious, but he
has never once tagged in the discharge of
duty or hnched from just responsibility, no
matter in what garb it was presented. The
opposition press may attempt to cast ridicule
and reproach upon his official acts, but their
efforts will only endear him the more to his
political friends, particularly when it is seen
that all their specifications are Of the fimsiest
and most contemplate character. Abuse never
sullies when unsustained by truth. The Go
vernon will have the proud consolation Of con-
scious recttude of intention, and may look
back upon his career with the confident assn
rance that no interest Of the Commonwealth
has suffered by any neglect or want of a,ten-
ton, aud that her rights, principles aud honor
have been fully guarded and sustained. His
communications to the General Assembly and
his public acts reflect upon his mead and heart
They are worthy of commentator, and will
compare favorably with the messages and acts
OF his predecessors. We sincerely wish hin,
every blessing in his retirement, aud hope his
we'll spent life may be happily be prolonged

Many persons may suppose the river of this
name to be an imaginary stream, up which de-
feated politicians are sent by sort of figure of
speech. Indeed, it is doubtful whether one in
q hundred ever thought of inquiring into its
length, breadth, depth, or locality. From the
description which follows, it is certain that the
exile has not much of a journey to make:
This river, (says Bayard Taylor) where it
debouches into the Ohio river, is not more than
sixty yards in breadth, but very deep. 1t is
never fordable even in the dryest season, and,
being navigable for fourteen miles above: has
not been bridged at this point. We descended
its steep and difficult banks, embarked our car
riages on fat ferry boat, and we're conveyed
across. The view looking up the river was
very beautiful. Tall sycamores clothed the
bank, dropping their boughs almost to the
water, and forming vista of foliage through
which the stream curved out of sight between
two wooded hills. longed to be rowed up it.
While on the spot took occasion to inquire
the derivation of the slang political phrase,

achievements in the pugilistic line. Hence it
became q common thing for the boatmen on
the Ohio, when one Of their number became
refractory, to say to him, "We'll row you up
