be obvious to all.
Having had about fifteen years experience

two years residence in mining region,
thereby becoming familiar with the wants OF
the mining trade, and not being interested in

THE ALPS.

My first view of the Alps was at Berne.
| had taken walk towards evening to
the "Engischo Promenade" as it ia
called, mile or so from the city: Thence
fac view of the city is obtained, with
its towering cathedral steeple, and the
ambergris- colored Aar winding around
it as almost to insulate it completely
from the main lard. / head seated nv
self, taken cup of coffee, and bread and
honey, was observing the people and the
scenery, and occasionally casting my
eyes in the direction of some huge white
clouds, which seemed to hang heavily oa
the eastern horizon. The thought oc-
cured to me if those clouds were but
mountains how magnificent would they
be; they would be beyond all concep-
ton or all description they would sat

hour, sauntered around under the trees,
and then strayed along the promenade
little farther on, away from the crowd
but my eye still continued, from time to
time, to faSten itself involuntarily in the
direction Of those white clouds. They
were the most unchangeable clouds [ had
ever seen; and the impression gradually
grew upon me that there was some hing
unnaturally hard and angular in their
outline. Can these, then, be mountains?

into my mind, occasioned kind of trem-

PETER rusKs IN TROUBLE.

Numerous have been the complaints
recently preferred against mock auction
eers by strangers in this city, who have
been taken in and done for. Since the
present Mayor came into Office, these COM
plants have been of much more frequent
occurrence than before. and in most cases
the money has been returned to the vic.
tim by the interference of the Mayor and
police.
In some instance :, however, the funks
have objected to giving up the money to
the victims where they have though pro-
per to prefer complaint, as above stated.
A case of this kind was developed at the
Mayors Office, shert time since, the
particulars of which are stated to be as
follows:
1t seems, from the affidavit of John
kirkpatrick, of Newark, N. j., that he,
in company with John Murphy, CT the
same city, were walking through Chat
ham street, and hearing seine person

store IN Chatham street opposite the
Park, they were induced to step inside.
Upon entering the store some person an.
peared to be offering for sale certain
watches. upon which he (Mr. Kirkpat-
rick) was induced to bid, whereupon one
Of them was declared his, for SO, which
he paid to another individual, who was
acting in the capacity of q clerk to the
auctioneer.
While IN conversation with the sup
posed clerk, he 1.-THE clerk took the watch
for which Mr.. K. had paid bis SO, and
handed it to the auctioneer, who resoId
1t for 81, and upon being demonstrated
with for such conduct, they told him
Mr.. K. that the watch was not worth
more than 81, and desired him to pur-
chase q good one for $40. To this pro-
position MIR. K. objected, and demanded
either the watch he had purchased, or
the return Of the money, neither of which
propositions the auctioneer or his clerk
would consent to give him, unless he
would at once purchase the $40 watch,
ana also that he would give them S28
additional.
Upon swearing to the above facts be-
fore Justice Osborne. a warrant was is
sued for the arrest ef the parties impli-
Gated, who were speedily brought before
the Justice, There the defendants gavO
the names Of Charles Toppan and Alonzo
Waterman.
They were held to bail for further ex.
animation in the sum of $500 each and
IL order that The matter should not be
settled by compromise between the
parties, whereby the ends of justice are
often defeated, the witnesses were required
to find security in the sum of two hun
dred dollars, to appear and prosecute the
case. From the zeal manifested lately,
We judge it to be determined to root them
out.-N. Y. Express.

BEAUTIFUL ExrR.cr.-The following
beautiful paragraph we extract from the
address delivered before the graduating
class of Rutgers College by the Hon.
Theodore Frelinghuysen, and commend
it to the perusal of the young:
"Resolve to do something useful, hon.
orable, dutiful, and do it heartily. Repel
the thought that you can, and therefore
you may, live above work and without
it. Among the most pitiable objects in
society is the man whose mind has learned
how to think, and the value Of bis immor-
tai powers, and with all these noble
faculties cultivated and prepared for an
honorable activity, ignobly sits down TO
do nothing; with no influence over the
public mind with no interest in the
concerns of this country, or even his
neighborhood ; to be regarded as drone.
without object or character, with no hand
to lift and no effort to put forth to help
the right or defeat the wrong. Who can
think with any calmness Of such mis-
erable careerl And, however it may be
with you in active enterprise, never per-
NIT your influence to 60 into hostility to
the cause of truth and virtue. So live
that, with the Christian poet, you may
truthfully say that
"Tf your country stand moi by your skill,
Al least your follies have not wrought her fsii.

THE BEAUTY OF THE DEAD.

That celebrated painter, @. r. Leslie
K. A., in one of his lectures, q volume Of
which has recently been published, re-
lates the following singular facts:
81 knew a man Of the highest order of
mind, man of fine feelings, but of great
simplicity, and, far above all, affection,
who standing before the corpse of his
wife, said, cit gives me very pleasurable
sensatlors." And yet he had truly loved
her. The lines to "The Glacour," in
which the present aspect of Greece is
compared to beautiful corpse, are ia.
mlllar to- every reader. Lord Byron, in
a note to the passage, remarks that this
peculiar beauty remains but few hours
after death" But l have been told by
those who are in the habit of making
casts that on the second day the express.
sion IS generally improved, and even on
the third day it is often still finer. I
have, in several instances, been asked to
make drawings of the dead; and though,
in every case, 1 have entered the room
where the body lay somewhat reluctant.
ly, yet have invariably felt reluctant TO
quit it. At Kreutzborg, near Boun, there
is q church, under the pavements ofwhich
lie, Ia one vault, the bodies of twenty
tiye monks in open coffins. The dryness
OF the air has preserved them from de-
cay, though the last buried has lain there
more than century. Visited the church
with party of ladies, who at first hesi-
tated to descend into the abode of death.
We all went down, each carrying light
ed taper, and such was the fascination of
this singular scene that we fingered in
it for some time. The air was perfectly
pure, and We seemed to be in another
world, with its own eternal interests ef.
facing for some time all other interests.
1t seems to us mistake that death
should be represented by poets or paint.
ers as a hideous phantom. We could
not contemplate those withered faces of
old mentor they seemed all old-and
think of death otherwise than as a gentle
friend. Their attitudes were varied, and
all had kind of grace, which, though
we knew it to be arranged by their
friends, seemed perfectly natural. One.
the gardener, had chaplet of withercd
leaves round his head. All were clothed
in the dress of their order: and their
clothes as well as their bodies, though
the last were dried to mummies, appear.
ed to be little destroyed. The cast, very
imperfectly taken, by DR.. Antonomsrchi,
from the face of Napoleon, is more hand
some than any bust or portrait of him,
and, indeed, has the look of o much
younger man than he appears in the
l.
ed for. 1dleness had reduced the super
abundant fleshiness of the lower part of
his face, and brought it back to the con-
dition of an early period; and death, by
leaving the mouth slightly open, had de-
stroyed that expression of selfish deter
mination which the thin, compressed
lips give to every portrait of Napoleon.
The profile of the cast is the most per-
fectly beautiful profile of a mali ever
saw.

THE JAPANESE.

Two japanese went on board the flag
ship of Commodore Perry, while at the
port Of Simods, Japan, and requested
that they might be carried to the United
States, which request was refused. Some
days after, an officer in passing through
one of the streets, saw two men eaged,
one of whom called the attention of the
officer to their condition, and thrust
through the bars a board upon which
was the following, as translated by the
interpreter to the exhibition. 1t was
supposed that they were the same ipdi-
viduals who were afterwards, it was said,
executed at the capitol.
"Whef hero fails in his purpose, his
acts are then regarded as those of viii
lain and robber. In public we have been
seized and pinioned, and darkly impris-
oned for many days; the village elders
and headmen treat us disdainfully, their
expressions being ggrievous, indeed; there
fore, looking up while yet we have no.
thing wherewith to reproach ourselves,
it must now be seen whether hero will
prove himself to be one indeed.
Regarding the liberty of going through
the sixty States (of Japan) as not enough
for our desires, we wished to make the
circuit of the five great continents; this
was our hearts wish for long time.
Suddenly our plans were defeated, and
We find ourselves in half-sized house,
where eating, resting, sitting and Sleep

PATENT ICE PITCHER.

I HIS PITCHER Is similar in appearance, and
i equally convenient TO those in common use, but
is constructed that when the is down every
part of its contents is dOuby encased from the at
mOsphere the effect of which is that one and half
pounds of ice placed in three pints of water will
last nearly seven hours, whereas, the same weight
ef ice in like quantity and temperature of water
in common pitcher, only lasts about two hours
Being composed of metal, it is of course more du-
rable than the ordinary china pitcher. This taken
N co lneXion with the cORvt nience and luxury of
always having ice water on hand, and the immense
saving of ice, renders IL decidedly the most eco
nomical pitcher now in use.
