Washington National Monument.

We have seen it stated somewhere, says the
Washington Sentinel. that the salaries of those
who officially conduct the affairs of the WASH
ington Monument Society are extravagant; but
the truth is, not one of the board of managers,
including the secretary; receives a dime for his
patriotic services. With the exception of the
salaries of the mechanical superintendent and
the clerk, not one cent is expended for purposes
other than those connected with the building.
The monument has attained a height of one
hundred and sixty feet.
The Fort Greene Guards, of Brooklyn, New
York, have recently sent a granite block to that
city, for insertion in the column to Washington.
1t was quarried from a boulder found on the
entertainment, where Putnam and his troops
were encamped on the eve of the memorable
battle Of Long Island, and which at that Pc
Rod was known as Fort Putnam, but has since
been changed to its present appeIlation, in hon.
or Of General Greene, of the revolution.

We perceive that considerable alterations and
improvements have been made in our court house,
which cannot fail to prove very agreeable to our
amiable Judge, TO our posse of good-looklng and
learned Lawyers, TO impatient and matter-oi-tact
Jurors, and TO the lazy, Ioaing, lobby members
everybody's comfort is taken into consideration
in these Improvements, even the criminal him
self: for that hateful box, which threw disgrace
and gull; upon the accused before he was found
guilty. has been tumbled out with the other trash
which Progress has consigned 10 oblivion. What
wonders this spirit of progress is creating, and
what i, is yet destined to create!
Besides the alterations already to be observed
in our hall Of justice-alas how many there are
who think otherwise of its ~jus'ice-we under
stand that Venetian blinds are to be made, the
floor to be covered with mating, and a seven foot
sofa TO be furnished for the District Attorney to
spread himself" upon. Lay on your taxes

E'Iaauc.ninc College.

1t will be seen by a notice in another col
umu, that a Day School will be opened at this
hourishing institution on Monday next. The
third regular session will IN on the
25th of the present month; and within this
short space of time this college has grown
with a rapidly, and extended its influence, as
none other has ever equalled here. This is no
idle remark the condition OF the college at
this time, the number of its scholars, &c, are
evidences sufficient Of its prosperous state. In
fact, scholars are becoming so numerous, that
the Rector has been obliged to build another
two story building, which will be finished in
December. The friends of learning, and par
~ticuIarIy of this institution, must give credit to
the industry and energy of the Rev. Rector,
c. CuAmDosT, and his admirable assistants, for
the rapid strides which Education has advance
ed since their advent amongst Us.

A kissing Affair.

The Brennan Enquirer contains three col.
umns of interesting dialogue, developing all
the particulars Of an assault; by kissing. charged
to have been committed by Rev. J. F. Walsh,
upon the "fair forehead of an innocent love-"
at the residence of her mother, near Chappell
Hill. The following is ne testimony of the
aggrieved fair one, given before Justice w. H.
Sherman:
"When mother left the room. Mr.. Walsh
asked me totake a chair and sit down BY him,
or near him. | told hin / would rather sit
where | was. He said no, come and sit there
he had something to talk to me about. then
went and sat in achair, about one yard from
him. He then mentioned a certain young mans
name, and asked if he was not coming to see
me! told him no. He then asked if he had
courted meg answered no. He then asked
me who did love! told him I did not love
any body. He then asked me if | did love him!
Isaid | like you well enough, sir. He then
took my hand in his and kissed it. He then
placed his hand upon my bosom, and kissed
me upon my forehead; and then placed his arm
around my waist, and called me his "sweet sis
ter" | then went to the kitchen, to my mother"
This occurred in Texas, and the brother of
the fair innocent cowhided the Rev. gentle.
man, which brought the matter before court.

We were quite enlivened 4 day or two since.
by one of our old original subscribers walk
inc into our office, with 4 face of good nature
and encouraging smiles; and looking around
and apparently well pleased with the appearance
of things and the manner in which our BUSH
ness was progressing, hauled out 4 rusty pouch
aud gave us the amount of his subscri ption for
the volume which has just commenced. This
incident was the more cheering TO Us, from the
fact, tha. it was the first time in Il long season
that he has paid Us 4 visit-and being one Of
our most prominent Wings, and among those
who extended US a helping hand at the outset
of our career here, we felt satisfied that our
course was still approved, that he had not lost
confidence after an acquaintance Of six years,
and that it was useless for our enemies, through
se!ishness, and to extend their power and in>
fuence, TO attempt to put our old friends against
us. and thereby effect our destruction. Such
evidence of continued good feeling and conf
dence, as displayed by the citizen and planter
of whom we speak, is Of better cheer to the
heart of the editor, than five times the amount
of his subscription. A long life and happy flu.
ture attend him and his.

The Cincinnati correspondent of the N O
Crescent, gives the following daguerreo,ype Of
that classic city:
"fiere | an in the meancst place in the Uni.
ted States, and rs far as my experience goea
the meanest place in the world. | have no pa,,
tIcular objection to a mans being mean, bro,
vided he is wise withal, but when he combines
insanity with meanness, then, | think, he be.
comes emphatically, unutterabIy contemplate
lind the people here particularly partial to that
species of operation which is figuratiyely DIES.
crIbed as biting Oft your nose to spite Won,
face. Owing to the decline Of meanness in tho
Southern States, Cincinnati, | fancy, has been
established as an institute for the cultivation
and propagation of meanness, and the perfec.
ton they have arrived at in the science wouL
utterly astonish even a Jew. 1t is an odd thino
that they should rear so many hogs here, for /
verify believe that if such a thing as Il hog had
never been seen for a hundred miles round. the
resemblance of the people in moral character
to that beast would at once strike the most IN.
analogically.disposed man. You are, or are
not, perhaps, aware, that if one out of a drove
OF hogs happen to get stuck in a fence firmly
and securely, ms companions will fall to and
eat him up. In like manner do the Cincinna.
tians behave to a fellow citizen if he gets into
any difficulty; they will be civil enough to him
so long as he is in a position to retaliate, but
once helpless, and they cry, "Pitch into him.
Give it to him-he's got no friends" is their
motto on such occasions. The hotels here.
and ! have been to most of them, are abomina'
bly, dirty: bad food, bad walters, stupid Irish
and saucy niggers, indifferent appointments
and impertinent clerks and proprietors. There
is only one hotel where | have met with de-.
Gently civil treatment, and that is the Gibson
House."

Ever since our Daily stopped, our neighbo'
over the way has been running around town
like a mad mule, and singing its requium iT
the following manner, and in true timber hecl
and Yankee style:
Thank God! Brad's Daily s gone to hi!
Glory, hallalujah.
May Brad go there, too, soon, to dwell!
Glory, haIlalujah!
O.! line me in a horn, boys, dew!
For the Daily IS dead and | am 'bluew
Oh! glory hallalujahw
Yes, dead as a herring, my condoling friend.
and no mistake; my right hand darkey, John,
brought me at the end of the week just five
dimes less than what was calculated upon, one
of which too was like your pewter quarter, and
of course our daily had to go by the board.
We have no doubt, that besides the requium
he has been believing about the streets, as we
learn, that a most piquant article, respecting
our daiIy's demise, will also grace the columns
of his paper to-day. He had nothing to say
when it started-but, oh ! what a sauce to his
delectable stomach has its suspension been!
Just hear him now, across the way mad
dening our brain with his internal symphony !
ooh! whoop! do-dah-do-dah!
l Jump up twice and l crack my heels!
For no one knows how glad l feels!
Oh! glory hallalujah!"
