HoSoR rHEi. FMTHFUL.-The Albany
correspondent of the New York Courier g.
Enquirer relates the following
There died in this city recently at the
house Of one of its worthiest and most re-
vered citizens, colored woman, who had
borne true and faithful service there for fifty
two years. The funeral, with just aPpre-
ciation of Christian intregrty in duty, was
ordered with every appointment of respect
and the corpse was borne out of The house
BY the four sons of the gentleman. Those
who had been borne in childhood by her
care, themselves gave this tasteful and af'
fecting tribute of respect to true, hnt lowly
worth The incident was in such good
taste and dignity Of kindness that il veil de-
serves a record.

Swiss PAUPERs NOT COMING TO New
YokK.-Mayor Wood has received Sc
cond letter -frosas MIR. CHI. Goundie, the
American consul at Zurich, informing him
lha, the $40 people sent from the canton o f
Argovie, switzerland, to the United States
are destined to land at New Orleans, and
not at New York. MIR. Goundie says -
also informed our consul at Havre OF
the fact. He at once entered protest
against their sailing, but the Swiss consul
at Havrc, and other persons, interfering
and they being provided with a draft on the
Swiss consul at New Orleans for fifty
francs (SIO)each-which is here consider
ed as sufficient to prove that they are not
destitute, our consul permitting them to
sail for New Orleans.
All these things will have good ten-
dency and, in fact, it has doEe so already,
by making the governments more cautious,
to whom they grant passports.

Il have seen the early chapters ofIrving's
"Washington," and find that he has sue
ceeded in cleaning many new facts, and
that distinctive feature of the biography

ter career by the peculiar discipline of his

ties Of his constitution.

SPECIE FOR THE CRIMEA.-We were
startled few days ago by the statement
that seventy five tons of coin had been en-
gagged as part of the cargo of vessel now
loading here for Constantinople. We learn
to day that the shippers are anxious to en-
gage torty-five tons more, having one hun
dred and twenty tons to ship. Lest this
heavy shipm mt of coin should alarm the
Wall street financisrs, W. may as well add
tha, it is all in kreutzars, Ohe copper coin

" The city authorities Of Hartford Wis.

" The city authorities Of Hartford vis-
tied the city authorities Of Providence on
Thursday; they we're met at the cars and
escorted to ihe City Hall, where they were
introduced to the citizens They dined at
the City Hotel and spent the evening with
the Mayor yesterday they were itovisit
the public institutions of the city.
The editor Of the Tribune was'not pres
ent at the dinner, but has heard that there
was wine on the table, and that some of the
guests used it freely; he intends TO inves-
ligate the matter, and tell the whole story
in a second edition. We have no doubt
butthere was wine there, and that it was
taken and enjoyed, not only by some of the
guests, but by some Of the Providence au.
thorities also,-for they have sensible men
in both governments who would mol object
TO an occasional glass of wine, "for the
stomach's sake" Certainly the authorities
ofProvidence would not be so heathenish as
to fill up their guests from abroad with moth
ing But cold water, in the shape of liquids
ThelMayor, we learn from the Tribune, gave
them nothing but water, and if the authori--
ties at the dinner had served them the same
way, they probably would have become wat
er logged before night, and, consequent
ly wouldnot have been desirous of making
another official visit to the city, Of Roger

News Of the appointment of Col. Step

surprised the Mormons, but it was thought
no opposition would be made.
On new years day collision took place
between the United States soldiers and the
citizens, at adrinking shop. Seven or
eight persons were shot, but none killed
Two of the soldier, were severely wounded.

modore Mayo, in command Of our squad
ron on the coast Of Africa, who, on the nh
Of February last, was at the mouth Of the
river Gambia with his flagship, the Con-
stitulion. All were we'll on board OF the
Constitution. All the ships Of than squad

home, having served out the regular time
for cruise. The sloop of war st. Louis,
Commander Ingraham, sailed from Spezzia
on the 18th of March, for the Unitod
States. The Cumberland and Saranac
were there at that time. All were we'll on

it is judged that the Merrimack (pnder con.

be ready to be put into commotion as early
as the end of September next, and that the
next one that will be ready to 60 to sea
will be the Minnesota, built at the Wash

Holloway's Pills, an extraordinary Rem
edy for Determination of Blood to the Head.
Henrietta Wright, of Newburg, New
York, suffered mos, excessively for eight
wears and half from termination Of blood
to the head, so badly at times that she
would fall down in crossing room as il
dead. She consulted three different phys-
clans, and s,udiously followed their advice,
which however failed TO benefit her, and
her dissolution was hourly expected. AT
this time she tried Holoway's Pills, which
quickly did their work, by removing from
the system all the noSious matter, carrying
off the bad fluids, an left her in the enjoy
mcnt of perfect health; her friends have all
been astonished at the apparent transfor-
nation, yet oil this has been effected BY
Holloway's Pills.
