CoURAGE.-A few months since, a lady be-
longing to this city went to N. Y and put up at
one of the Broadway hotels. After going to her
room for the night, she took out her pocket book
and watch, laid them ON the table, and then sat
down to read.
While engaged in reading she thought she
heard breathing from some one apparently near
by, but finally concluded it was imagination
Soon after, she commenced making preparations
to retire. and in adjusting her hair she dropt one
of her hair pins. While STOPPING to pick it no,
she discovered hat under the bed, and closer
observation revealed to her sight the full length
figure of man. Without evincing any emotion
she threw a shawl over her shoulders, went out
of the room, locking the door after her, and step
ping into the hall, rang bell, which summoned
the assistance of the proprietors, who called in
the assistance of police-ofieer, and the intruder
was arrested. There was found on the prisoner
bottle of chloroform He was convicted on the
testimony of the lady, and sent to the states pris
on for six months.-Nc,o Haren Register.

The Republican Association in Washington invite 4
Mr.. Blair, who lives farm that city in Ma
rylapd, to accept the Presidency of the Association
In reply, while Mr. Blair declines the honor tender
ed for entirely apart from any political opin-
lone, he endorses fully the object of the republican
party and warmly recommends the movement.
He shows clearly and conclusveIy that this doc
rine of squatter sovereignty, with reference to the
territories modern nnov alton in violation of the
obligation imposed Congress by the constitution,
and was gotten up by Shareholders and their dough
face allies for the purpose of extending and perpeu-

the ground occupied by Calhoun--which was the pr-
mary Importance of slavery over all other consider
atoms, extending to the dissolution OF the I'M

questions should be dropped, and men should take
ground distinctly on this overshadowing issue.
Mr.. Blair takes thorough Republican ground and
the source from which the opinions come as well as
the argument by which they were sustained, will give
them great weight.

MELANCHOLY PREsENTMENT OF DEATH BY
A LADY, AND IT'S SAD FULFILMENT.--W have
to record most melancholy instance of the po-
wer of hailucination over the mind and health of
highly respectable and intelligent young lady
of Undertook, in this state, who some years
since, while in the enjoyment of robust health
was visited one night at her bedside Gas she af
tirmed at the timc) by an apparition. which in
solemn accent informed her that at the age of
Ia she would be an inhabitant of another and
better world She made the incident known to
her mother, who yainly tried to erase the circum-
stance from the mind of herdaughter, by treating
it as the hallucinaton of dream. The daughter
however, averred that she was in possession of
her faculties and wide awake at the time of re-
ceiving her spiritual visitor; and such was the
effect it had upon her mind that, girl full of
life and glee, she became thoughtful and reser
we'd, and gradually sank under its depressing
influence, p;ning gradually, until recently she
became tenant of the graveyard just as she
was entering upon her eighteenth year.-Kin-

fire at that place supposed to be the

copy from the Patriot:
Last night, about IL o'clock, a
fire broke nut in the building situated
at the corner Of Main and North
streets, belonging to Mr.. J. Conret.
and before the flames could be ex,in-
gnish.d, said building. together with
another, adjpining. the properly of Mr..
uonofe Jalian, was entirely con-
sume{l.
Mr.. Cour-t was about opening a
cofee-house, and had Just received
from New Orleans a large stock of
fine liquors, etc, which were total
loss.
The other building was occupied by
Mr.. Peiferkorn. shoemaker, and Mrs.
Pigeon. m;lliner, both of whom expe.
iienced heavy losses. The building
was insured.
The total loss is estimated at $500.
1t is positively believed that this
fire was the work Of an incendiary. y
