AlD>PoR kANzAs.-The bold, manly. and
patriotic efforts, of the freemen of Kanzas to
sustain themselves and the institutions of
freedom against the invading hordes OF out
side baarbarians from the slave States, has
awakened the generous hearted freemen of
Massachusetts, and the material aid will not
be wanting to enable them to maintain
the difficult position they have TAKEN
From one of the small towns adjacent to Wor-
cester, a hundred dollars was received on
Friday last, by the agents of the Emigrant
Aid Society, to be added to their funds for the
relief of the settlers in the territory, and we
hear of many other towns in which liberal
contributions are being collected by the vol
untary exertions of those who feel it ineum-
bent upon them, at this time to manifest their
love for the cause Of liberty, by deeds as well
as words. We also learn from authentic
sources that the emigration from the New
England States, the coming spring, will be
very much larger than in any previous year.
Several towns in Connecticut are organic
ing a company Of two hundred emigrants,
which win leave at the earliest practicable
moment. Worcester county will send again
its scores and its hundreds, and other parts of
the State will send their due proportion of
the pioneers of Freedom. In the town of
Salem, New York, a company of twenty five
is already organized, which will be increased
to fifty by the first of March, and every man
will, in addition to other necessaries that will
come in play in new settlement, be provided
with Sharpe's rifle. Vive la Liberte. Let
the Shareholders hurry up their invading
hordes, the actual settlers from New York
and New England alone will outnumber them
six to one before three months have passed
away. and there will be peace upon the from
tier and Freedom in the Territories, which
Atchison, Stringfellow, and Frank Pierce will
find it hard to disturb.

WAUGH's 1TALIA.-To those who have seen
Waugh's Italia" it is entirely superfuous for
us to say word, for the work has spoken to them
in stronger language than pen can do. But there
are many of our citizens who have not, as yet,
seen it, and it is to them that we would say, by
all means go and see for yourself and our word
for it you will not regret the time spent in SO rich
an entertainment. To those who have not seen
this painting, VIC would say, it ia not what you
usually seein panorama, but rather acollection
OF landscape and marine views of very high or
der of merit, and full of the truth and beauty of
finished easel pictures. In the architecture we
have all the finish which we could ask, giving us
the grandeur of those magnificent European pal
aces and churches, and even the delicate gothic
tracery of the cathedrals is most beautifully por-
trayed, with richness and truth that gives the
whole the appearance of nature. We do not hes.
itate to say that in opinion. this is by far the
best painting Of the kind we have seen in our
midst, and we are happy to say that the artist,
whose fame in other works has long been known
to u.s. has in this series of paintings, fully sus-
tanned his reputation as man of high merit
We therefore commend the same to the atten ton
of our citizens, as pictures from which they can
learn much and enjoy more.

From fifty to two hundred pounds per day,
have been taken for some days past, in the SUIT
ton ponds.-"Singletary,' "Manchaug,"

and the largest have weighed four and five
pounds; average about onepound. We saw
the other evening" nice string weighing for
ty pounds, caught during the day, by young
lad, on singletarypond. They would weigh
from one. half to two pounds each. A party
on Manehaug took upward of seventy pounds
on the same day.

SINGULAR OCCURRENCE. Some timei in Sep
temher, 1851, while at play, George L. Ten
neyi then about eleven years Of age, son OF
Daniel A. Tenney of Sutton, trod on some
broken glass, crushing piece to pieces in the
hollow of his foot Subsequently it was sup
posed to have been entirely extracted, and
the sore healed up. Some few months after
this, the boys health began to decline ;-oc.
slonally he has suffered severely from nervous
difficulties, been troubled with severe pains
in the foot and leg, and no relief could be
found. A few days since, a small sore made
its appearance upon'tle upper edge of his foot
the one heretofore afflcted-and. on exam
nation, his father discovered the point
of a piece of glass protruding, which
he succeeded in getting hold of with pair
of nippers, and in extracting. 1t was seven
eighths of an inch in length, and about half
that width, and Of irregular shape. The
piece, it would seem, had worked through the
foot, distance of about three and half
inches from where it entered, more than four
years ago. Since this, the boys health has
rapidly improved.
Glass is, we believe, a bad poison acting
through the blood and upon the nerves; and,
as cuts from glass are frequent, great care
should be taken to extract every particle from
the wounds which are made by it.

excellent character, and her testimony was so
explicit and minute ana fitted so perfectly To
the known circumstances that apprehens;nps
began to be entertained that the accused ,vere
actually guilty, although their general char

was nearly concluded when suspieions woro
excited that the woman was not exactly in
her right mind and subsequent deyelonmeots

TO exclude all suspicion Of her actual condi.

acquitted and think they had very marrow
