OBITUARY..

Died, at her residence, in this City, after long
and protracted illness, on the 18th inst, MARY
RHODUS, consort Of EUGENE CousISARD, aged 10
years.
Thus, at the sweet age Of nineteen, and in tho
prime Of life, was taken away the form Of an A.
fectionate mother and dear and beloved wife,
Again, and how soon was this father draped in
mourning and called to mourn the loss-the IRE
parable loss, Of the idol Of his heart the compan
ion Of his life-who was ever and anon ready and
willing to soothe his suffering pillow, to calm his
trouble breast, to Danish the clouds Of despair
from his brow, to speak words Of hope and Of
sweet consolation to his despairing and sinking
heart, to make home cheerful and happy. But,
alas, the fire side companion, wife and mother 10

INDIGNANT AT LAsr.--That some
action has taken place in New Or
leans, of an official character, in ref
erence to the mail service, pleases us.
The public press has been long and
loud enough in its anathemas. We
have been .mad enough to call the
Post Master General and all bis subs
hard names. and would have done so,
but looked upon it as a work Of super
ogation. Everybody knows, because
everybody can see and feel the evils
complained Of. The True Delta says
on this subject:
Alderman Durell deserves we'll of
this community for the resolution he
offered in the Board of which he is
member, last night, to have commit
tee of the Common Council appointed,
in conjunction with the Mayor, repre-
senting the public generally. to cores
pond with the Post. Master General in
relation to the disgraceful manner in
which the public mail service is per-
formed in this neglected section Of the
Union. We cannot believe that the
Post Master General is actually in COL
fusion with the enemies Of New Or.

to ruin her commerce, but certainly
the work could not be more efectual.

An uncomfortable Dos;ti;on. :

An uncomfortable position .-Sp1R1.
rvALrsM.-The Philadelphia Argus
says: The last, and one Of the boldest
foIlies we have ever heard, occurred
last week in the upper part Of the city.
The spirit Of a murdered man has
been for months in tribulation, but
finally, few days since, succeeded in
communicating the fact that having
been murdered some ten years since,
his body was placed in a dry well in
a sitting posture, and the we'll having
since, been filled, the position was
inconvenient, especially as the place
had been built upon, the spirit wants
the body taken up and decently inter-
ed. The precise location was indicat-
ed directly beneath the steps Of GER
tam house in Hutchison street, be-
tween Poplar end Girard avenue and
since then the laborious excavations
have been going on to find the body.
while the story has afforded abundant
food for gossip.

A correspondent Of the New York
Post, states that French sevant as
cribes the unusual rains and atmos-
pheric disturbances over a great part
of Europe, to the prolonged and terri
bic cannonade in the Climea. This
same topic was recently discussed in a
scientific circle in Boston, and it was
observed that the fact just named was
strictly in accordance with the cele-
brated theory Of Prof Espy, and was
assented to by Arago and some of the
most accurate metcorologists in Eu-
rope.

Well may the citizens Of this ma
ton pause, and such as are working
in Under currents Of politics for pecu-
mary benefits alone raise their heads
above the common drift wood in the
stream, and ask the Sentinel on the
watch tower Of liberty Waterman,
what's the hour ?" It is time all
good men and true, were united in
solid phalanx, to work on the deck Of
the vessel of State. and guard against
the lowering clouds and breakers
ahead. Look about US in what direc-
ton we will, and Notwithstanding
clouds are geathering head, to dash
the ship Of State on the strands Of
sectional prejudice and pillows Of ia
naticisin. Men meet now days; not
as patriots of old, to consult one Other
about the public good, but as conflict
ing parties of "banditti " to quarrel
over the spoils Of Office. Imaginary
lines have been drawn, for no other
purpose than to call out the factious
elements of mans nature, and bring
about q fancied conflict of interest, in
a family Of freemen, where all should
alike exult in the glory Of a common
country. The thread-bare political ell
ements of the old world have become
so entangled in the policy Of the new,
that nothing but the purest native pat
riotism united with reason, and the
religion Of Jesus Christ,
can extricate Us from exotic fanatics,
and the meshes Of native demsgogue-
ism.

10 The Jews are divided into
two general sects the Karsites, who
refuse to receive either tradition or
the Talmud, or anything but the
pure text Of Scripture; and the Rab-
binists or Talmduists, who besides
this, receive the traditions of the an.
clients, and follow the Talmud. These
latter, arc again divided into two
sects; pure Rabbinists, who explain
the Scripture in its natural sense by
grammar, history and tradition and
Cabbalists, who to discover hidden
mystical senses which they suppose
God to have couched therein, make
use of the Cabbala and the mystic
rules and methods above mentioned.
There are Missionaries among the Jews,
who believe Jesus Christ, wrought
his miracles by virtue of the myster-
les of the Cabbala. Some learned
men are Of opinion that Pythagoras
and Plato learned the Cabbalistic art.
Of the Jews in Egypt, and fancy they
see evident footsteps thereof in their
philosophy, others on the contrary say
it was the Philosophy of Pytbgoras
and Plato that FIRST furnished the
Jews With their Cabbala.

This city-which is in many things, q

From the San Francisco Evening
News Of the Goth, we extract the fol-
lowing:
The most exciting event since our
last has been the State election and its
glorious results. All that Federal,
State and Municipal patronage could
do, was done for the enemy; but
Sam" unaided and alone, met the
enemy and they routed, horse
foot. and Dragons" The recapitu-
lation, which will be found below, is
somewhere imperfect, but the official
canvass will not vary it much. J.
Nicely johnson, the American candi-
date, is elected Governor by 5000
majority, which is the highest ever
given for the Office and with on excep.
ton the highest ever given any office
in California.
