residence in the East, and whose knowledge
OF Oriental manners, customs, and lam

with some means apart from his Office
For many years ne has followed up most
laborioas work, In which, however, he tells
mo he has found great pleasure. The work
is dictionary Of pSefxes, sufixes and
roots Of proper names. He has extended
his researches in f1rty-fve different lam
guages, and has abou, 500 pages of manu-
script ready for the printer as soon as he is
ready tGpablish.
A large portion of his manuscript has
already been submitted to several Of the
literary societies and Swans Of Europe,
and the author, beside receiving the most
gratifying encomiums from individuals, has
been admitted into many Of the learned So
cleties He has been strongly advised to
publish his work but he says he is not

sun, at least in dictionaries; and when one
considers that every ones name, even in
English, is not Smith, fancy what an Her
cuIean task Mr.. b. has undertaken. when
he jumps at once into fo.ty-fye different
tongues, collecting all their proper names
AID tracing them to their origin. There is
connection. as he showed me, between
names in different languages, having a
similar sound, and in some cases he ira 'es
names from our mother tongue up to the
Ranic, Sanscrit, Hebrew, and the deadesr
Of all dead languages, with the greatest
ease.

AMERICANA ENeLAND-It is reported
both from France and England that a large
armed fleet of some twenty sail have been
sent, very lately, fom England to Jamaica
and Bermuda, in consequence of some COM
munication made by the American Govern
ment to the English, relative to Cuba, which
was insulting in the highest degree. The
message, it is said, was that, in defiance of
England's interference. they should do
what they pleased with Cuba. We doubt
the truth Of this report, for we do not be-
lieve that Pierce has courage enough to
make it.

q A Mr.. Where. Of Indiana, respect
able and wealthy German, was summoned
on jury. and although he told the Sheriff
he was "too Dutch to sit upon the jury"
he was not excused. After trial Of an i'm
portam case, a motion was made by the de-
faateJ party for new trial on the ground
that Mr.. Where could not understand
English, and the man was brought forward
for examination. The account says:
During his examination, Mr.. Where be-
came very much alarmed, and, in spite of
the assurances of the Cour,, the bar and his
friends, that he had done no wrong, he still
thought he was upon his trial for some
crime he had committed. He inquired,
in his own language, what would become
of his family, and burst into tears Not
being able to reconcile him, he was dis
charged, and immediately proceeded home-
ward. On arriving at home, he remarked
to his family that the lawyers here had
"scared him almost to death, and he didn't
know that he could get over it," He
remained thoughtful and melancholy until
Sunday, the Goth ult., when his family
were horribly shocked by finding him
corpse, suspended by the neck in his own
barn. Not understanding the nature of the
examination he was subjected to, and sup
posing he had committed some great wrong,
so wrought upon his mind as to induce
him to commit suicide.

o. The Convocation of the Clergy of
Litchfield County, held its annual meeting
in st. Michael's Church in this town, on
Wednesd ~ Of last week.
A missionary service was held in the
Church on the previous evening, at which
interesting and practical addresses were
made BY the Rev. Messrs. Scott Of New
Preston, Miller of Plymouth, and Scott of
Naugatuck.
On "Wednesday morning twenty of the
Clergy assembled at St. Michael's, where
services were performed in the following
order-The usual e Order of Morning Pray-
er," and the Litany were read by the Rev.
Messrs. Ried of WATERFOWL, and futile of
Salisbury. The ante communion service
was read by the Rev. and Venerable David
Baldwin, whom the laity no less than the
Clergy were rejoiced to meet again in the
place Of his nativity, and where fifty three
years ago he commenced those labors in the
cause of Christ, which in our times, have
hardly had an equal in faithtulness. The
annual Sermon which was founded upon
the apostolic commission, Sc Go We into all
the world and preach tine Gospel to every
CREATURE" &C., was preached by the Rev
MIR. Nashburn, of St. Johns Church.
Hartford. The aim of the preacher was to
set forth the true relation OF the Church to
schemes of modern philanthropy and her
position in relation to the social improve
ments of modern times. 1t was an able
Sermon, and one well worthy of the dis
tinguished preacher and the occasion.
After the sermon, the Communion was
administered by the Rev. DR.. Holcomb, a
clergyman who has grown old in the
Chufch's service in this County.
The collection made at the Communion,
and appropriated by the Rector to Diocesan
Missions was, We learn. much larger than
any ever made in the parish OH similar
occasion.
In the evening the Church was again
open, when the service was read By the
Rev, Messrs. Jones of Sharon, and Gray OF
Be,hem, and sermon was preached by
the Rev. Dr.. Clark Of Waterbury.
During all the services the weather was
fine, the congregations large and interested /;
and if the Rector and Clergy were as well
satisfied as the Lai.y. all will remember this
meeting of the Convocatisn with pleasure.

No SeuF Houses THIS WINTEG.--We are glad
10 believe that there will be no occasion for
the revival Of the charitable institutions known
az soup-honses, during the present winter. The
causes which made them necessity last year
have been happily removed. The falling of
Of oEe-nalf in the foreign immigration-the
abundant harvest-the low price Of potatoes
the considerable reduction in the price of meats
the demand for labor, which Is consequence
Of renewed prosperty-all act as causes to pre-
vent the misery and Hesitation which existed
here year ago, and which were 50 promptly
met and alleyiated 10y our munifcent citizens.
New York city, with all its faults, Is eminently
charitable, and this covers multitude of sins.
Let as thank heaven that there is Go prospect
Of repetition of the melancholy scenes Of the
hard tines last winter.
