How TO EXCLUDE FLIEs.-Flies are beginning
to be troublesome. According to Spence, the
entomologist, they may be effectually excluded
from a room in which the windows are left wide
open for a free circulation of air. by suspending
a net made of light colored thread to the outside
Of the window, and, although every mesh is large
enough. not only to admit one fly, but several
flies with expanded wings, to pass through at
the same moment, yet, from some nezplcahlc
dread Of venturing across the mesh work, these
insects are effectually excluded 1t is necessary
to state, that in order for this plan to succeed,
it is essential that the light enter the room on
one side only; if there be an opposite or side
window, the flies pass through the net without
scruple

Tho Spanish Mission.

The New York National Democrat does not
seem to like the idea Of having two commission
ers sent out to assist Mr. Soule in his ne
gotidtions with Spain. Hear him.
1t seems to be beyond doubt that the Admin
istration contemplate sending two gentlemen to
aid Mr. Soule IN his negotiation with Spain
The gentlemen selected for this mission are
George M Dallas, Of Pennsylvania, and Howell
Cobb, OF Georgia. Neither Of these gentlemen
have yet signifed whether they will ACCEPT an
Office OF any character under the Administra-
ton Probably they will. Both are competent
and worthy men, and If the country requires
them, will not withhold their services We OBJ

DANGER OF BEAUTY In the attempt made by
Mary Guess of Scots to escape from her impris-
onment in Lochleven Castle, she disguised her
self as laundress with whom she had changed
clothes, and when seated in the boat and put
ting off from the shore she was discovered by
lifting her hand to her head; the extreme
beauty of her hand, with its whiteness, betrayed
her at once, and she was carried back to her
chamber in bitterness and tears.

brought before Hon A. D. Smith a Justice If

charging him with having aided in the escape
from Jail in this city, of the fugitive slave Clio
yer, on March 10, was decided by Justice Smith
this forenoon, at Young's Hall. at length occu-
pylng at least an hour and half The Court
first decided that the mittimu2i9sued- by the
Commissioner was defective and void; but this
point was passed over, MS the petitioner had
waived all objections to the informality and
deficiencies Of the writ The Court next de.
elded that the original writ issued by Judge
Miller for the arrest of Glover, was defective
for several reasons given; and thirdly, that the
act Of Congress of 1850, known as the Fugitive
Slave Law, is unconstitutional and void He
therefore ordered the prisoner to be discharged
from custody. This decision will lead to n con
flct between the State and the United States
Courts 1t is rumored that the u S Marshal
