GREAT ExCITEMENT.-Tn ARTEsIAN WELL
ON FIRE. -S SINGULAR PHENoMENoN.-The
neighborhood of Canal Street was in terri
BILE state of excitement yesterday morning,
owing to a report that the Artesian Well, now
being bored on the neutral ground, Lad taken
fire. Various were the speculations on this
singular phenomenon. BY some of the geo.
logists who FASTENED to the spot, after the oc-
currence, it was asserted that the augur had
penetrated into volcanic strata, and that an
eruption would in all PROBABILITY soon follow !;
others equally learned, suggested that the au-
CUR had struck q coal bed and the friction
caused it to ignite. While the philosophers
were celebrating on the question of whether
or not we should soon have Vesuvius in our
midst, a bystander made the practical sugges-
ton of sending for Young America" the
steam fire engine, and trying what effect the
big squirt would have on it, The suggestion
was promptly carried into effect, and in a
short time the great Artesian bore, with all
its volcanic adjuncts, was completely washed
out, and the timid fears of all who supposed
that the Crescent City was about to blow up,
finally quicted.-New Orleans Delta, llM

MARRIAGE AND GENIUs.-Somebody says
all women no matter how schooled or what
their attainments, have yearning desire to
love and be loved again. The head can never
be educated at the expense of the heart, con-
sequently if they cannot obtain such as they
could most veneratc and respect they unite
themselves to those who tender them the love
they have the need Of they dream of happi-
ness, and awake to disappointment. They find
themselves unappreciated, their tastes shocked
their sensibilities derided, and drag out lives
Of misery and wretchedness. Not alone are
women of genius unhappy. Men, too, are
made miserable by uncongenal minds. Who
can doubt that the life of Byron would have
been {; better and happie: one had his wife
been one who could have sympathised with
and understood him. Millions domestic afflic
tons sat heavily upon his heart. Shelly's first
marriage was fraught with consequences terri
