An Apt Illustration.

The Hon. Peleg w. Chandler in his recent
speech at the Wing State Convention, told
the following amusing story, the moral Of
which may be readily Comprehended;
"Many years ago there lived on the banks
of the Penobscot, just at its confluence with
the dark waters of the Kenduskeag, an ec-
centric old man by the name of Bodge.--
Misfortune and rum had reduced him from
a position of considerable wealth The
people there, especially those who had known
him III better days, had a sympathy for this
decayed old citizen, and We're not disposed
to criticisc his somewhat erratic conduct
with much particularly. Moreover, what
ever other taiIingS lie had, Old Bodge "
was a man of truth. There was a theory
that he would sometimes steal but he scorn-
ed lie. This was distinction upon which
he stood with something like pride. One
summer afternoon there came up on the lazy
tide the old schooner, which was then the
chief means of communication with the
metropolis and among the crowd Of men and
boys waiting her arrival on the shore, was
our friend.
4 worthy deacon of the village church
took him aside, and informed him with
husiness-like framkness that he had a large
variety Of merchandise aboard, particularly
fine lot of salt fish, and he proposed to
give Bodgc five of the latter with the under
standing that he was not TO touch anything
else. Bodge hesitated . 1t was hard case;
bu. if the deacon would allow him to select
nine OF the best fish on board, he would
pass his word : and so the compromise was
made. / was a larger cargo than BOdge ex
pected. The shades of evening began to
fall before it was half landed, and opportu-
nifty seemed to serve better than he had sup
posed He repentcd his bargain, but never
thought Of breaking his word, He left IA
course like this to his betters. but deliber
ately brought back the fish he had received,
laid them on the wharf, and said: Deacon,
I've brought back those fish. The fact is,
Think lean do bcttcrr Loud laughter.
Now the fact is, this course is honor and
honesty itself, compared with that of men
who after having the advantage of bar
gain for thirty years, now refuse to keep it,
and who donot promise to return what they
had taken und r that bargain. Less honest
than Bodge, they keep the fish and break
their faith In any court of honor upon
earth this old man would bear the palm from
those at the South who have been parties to
this gross wrong.

STATE HOUSE ON FRF.-Last evening,
about half past seven o'clock, the roof OF
the new State House was discovered to be on
fire. but owing to prompt assistance and
but little wind stirring at the time, it was
extinguished before it got fairly under head
way. The fire originated from the soldering
cans which had been carelessly left standing
upon the pine sheathing, on which the work
men are now fastening the copper. If the
fire had caught little later, or the wind
had been blowing al the time, the whole roof
and the great scalfolding built for turning
the arches of the rotunda, would have been
destroyed. We would suggest to the Com
missioners the necessity of employing watch
men to guard this fire e-prOof building against
the ravages of this devouring element, as we
would regret exceedingly to have this evi-
dence Of Locofoco folly and mismanagement
burned before it was fnished.-IO. S. Jour.

UNEXPECTED ELEvATIoN.--Ihe vlclssi-
tudes of human life are very strange. In
1880, President Taylor, then Colonel in the
army, wrote letter to Gen. McNiel, who
had just been appointed surveyor of Boston,
from which we make the following extract:
am fully aware that it is impossible for
us to pursue any rofession-particular
that Of arms-for Is or 20 years without
forming strong attachments to it in various
ways, and of course, must abandon them
with considerable reluctance, but there are
circumstances which should reconcile us to
doing so, and to justify us, not only in our
own eyes, but in that Of community. Could
| get civil appointment as respectable,
with half the emolument attached to it, as
there is to the one you have received, and
where could be located, so as to superin-
tend the education of my children, I would
resign forthwith-for, after serving % years
and upw ards in the army, all of which time
on duty, with the exception of few
months, without being stationed two years
together at one post, during that time, be-
gin to think that | need repose, but as do
not possess influence enough to procure a
civil appointment of any grade, | consider
my doom fixed.
Here is plain modest officer of the U. S.
army, who, in 1880, expressed sincere wish
that he could retire from his labors with
half the emoument that Gen. McNiel re-
ceived, and declared that he did not possess
influence enough to procure civil appoint
ment and yet this same man became a
world renowned General, and President of
the United States, in less than 90 years from
that Portland, (Me.)

THE SANDWICH lsLANDs.--The present
condition and prospects of the Sandwich
Islands would, a very few years since, have
been deemed incredible. We perceive that
the principal business men of Honolulu are
projecting a regular line of steam communi-
cation between Honolulu and San Francis
co. One steamer, the Polynesian, has al
ready been built for that purpose. In rela-
tion to her financial progress, the fact may
be mentioned that application has been made
to the Legislature for bank charter, the first
application Of the sort ever made. A new
steam saw mill commenced grinding wheat
in June, and fine article was turned out
from the crop then just harvested. This re-
suit marks an era in the history of the
islands of no small magnitude; for indus
try, and agricultural enterprise will be pro-
NOTED, and collateral branches of business
Correspondingly benefited.
But who, in the widest dreams Of pro-
gression, says the Polynesian of the 29th o!
July, would have dared to predict, twenty
years ago, that our streets would be placard-
I'd with the name of an artist who has
delighted the fastidious taste of European
courts, and the equally appreciating assem-
blages of the more modern Republics Of
America Ana yel, Impossible as II might
have appeared, the citizens of Honolulu
have enjoyed this privilege during the past
week. Our eyes have seen the name of
Catharne Hays, and our ears have heard her
charming voice.
Miss Hays arrived here on the 22d inst,
in the bark Fanny Major, en- route for Aus
tralia, and on Tuesday evening gave con-
cert, assisted by M. Coulon, to full house.

The tree is not more certainly known by
its fruit, than town or city by its newspa-
pers. A growing city, with an intelligent,
enterprisng, thrifty population, will send
out well-conducted, well-printed newspa-
pers, crowded with advertisements, saying
to every stranger who picks them up: "See
how sleek, well-fed and fat our people make
US, and infer, hence, how prosperous, full
handed and liberal our people themselves
must be- How different a story is told by
papers of another kind. When you open a
dull little sheet, that looks as if it had been
printed with sour apple-butter for ink; with
six lines of editorial matter, preceded by an
imploring notification that "The publisher
now calls, for the last time, on those who
wish to pay for their subscription in wood;''
with few paying advertisements but those of
the Sheriff, offering to sell real estate " at
two-thirds of its appraised value;" when
you open sheet of this kind, coming from
town you never saw, what is your conclu-
sion? Is it not that the place has "gone to
grass" and had better be fenced in for pas
ture? Would you be likely to think of 60
ing there to invest money or to do business?

EXPERIMENTAL FARM AND AGRICULTURAL
'CoLLEGE.-It it stated that the plan devised
under the auspices of the Maryland State
Agricultural Society, for the purchase and
outfit of an experimental farm, and for the
erection thereon of an agricultural college,
proposes to make it joint stock concern,
in which all the citizens of the State can
participate if they feel so disposed ch
share of stock, when full paid, to amount to
$25, to be applied to the above named pur-
poses. The holder or combined holders of
forty shares of stock will be entitled to be
represented always by pupil free of all
charges for instruction, &c. The subscrip-
ton of stock is not to be binding upon sub
scrbers unless four thousand shares shall be
bona tidc subscribed. The exclusive control
of the property, and the government Of the
college, is to be vested in officers to be cho-
sen by the stockholders.

slaveholding Choctaws is in full force in al
most every slaveholding State in the Union.
Within twelve months, lady was impris-
oned in the city of Norfolk, in the State of
Virginia, for the crime of teaching slaves to
read. Such are some of the features of
slavery, as it is exhibited in this country, at

The American Board of Missions has de-
termined to withdraw from the Choctaw In
dians. This tribe has instituted Slavery,
and. within a short time, has passed law
prohibiting the teaching of the slaves to
read the Bible. The debate was long and
very able, and the majority against having
any farther connection with tribe that
would resort to such step, was decided.
We cannot find fault with this decision,

pill of the Kansas and Nebraska bill, and to

croachment of slavery. Let us see how
popular sovereignty is protected in the bill

governor appointed for four years by the

The first brood Of minor offices are all

The executive and judiciary are not only
appointed by an authority alien from the

IMPORTANT INFORMATION SUPPRESSED. -
The new constitution provides that [" an &C
curate and detailed statement of the re-
ceipts and expenditures of the public money
the several amounts paid to whom, and on
what account, shall, from time to time, be
published. as shall be provided by law
A law was passed in March, 1858, pre-
scribed the manner in which the statement
required by the Constitution shall be report
led by the several officers and agents to the
Auditor of State with the proper vouchers
This law also directs the Auditor of State
to cause the reports made to him to be
transcribed, classified, and arranged, so as to
present. in detail, an accurate account of the
public revenue for the preceding year."
The Constitution took effect in Septem-
ber 1851, three years ago, and yet ''no de-
tailed statement of the receipts and expen-
dtures of the public money" has been pub
lished, as required by the Constitution and
law.
This is subject Which should excite the
attention of the people of the State. 1t is
important that they should be informed
which of the officers and agents of the State,
have neglected their duty, and violated their
oaths of Office in this particular.
Were the reports regularly made to the
Auditor of State? If such reports We're
made as required by the Constitution and
laws, and the oaths of the officers and
agents of the State, why did not the Auditor
of State present them to the legislature, so
that they might be published for the infor-
nation of the people.-lO. S. Jour.

San Francisco The United States brings
100 passengers and 100000. She left AS
pinwall on the 18th. Great fires have oc-
Cured throughout the State since the sail
ing of the last steamer. The losses sum up
nearly 81 100000. Mokulme Hill has been
entirely destroyed and the loss is estimated
lat $500,000 The town of st. Louis has
also been destroyed, inv diving a loss Of $780,
900. Camp Seco has also been consumed
and loss sustained of $l25,O0O. The ac-
counts from the mines are of the most fat
tering nature. Agricultural pursuits were
also fourishing finely.
There was hardly question but that the
wings would sweep the State at the next
election, as the democratic party appear
hopelessly divided.
The French consul at San Francisco had
given notice that all vessels of marque
would be treated as pirates, and dealt with
accordingly.
Walter Sherwood, of San Francisco, had
committed forgeries to the extent of $l7,-

Great preparations were being made for

LOUISVILLE, Sept. 2l.-By the arrival of
the Santa Fe mail yesterday at Fort Inde-
pendence, we learn that body of \. S.
troops arrived at Fort Union on the I'd of
August last, having lost 6 horses and 90
mules. Their headquarters will be at San
ia Fe.
The Indians were quiet, and the officers
and non-commissioned officers at Fort
Leavenworth were ordered to leave for the
States, and will depart about the middle of
September, under the command of Col.
Cooke.
Aubrey's death was the result of an alter
cation with Weightman as to an article
published in the Amago del Pays. The lie
was frequently exchanged, when Aubrey drew
a revolver, and while in the act of raising
it one barrel was prematurely discharged
Weightman drew bowie knife and stabbed
Aubrey in the abdomen, causing his death in
ten minutes. Weightman then surrendered
himself, and was held in $4,000 bail. He
regrets the occurrence very much.
