in taunting remarks towards any one, and re-
member, that the son of poor man, and even
of drunkard, may have sensibilities as keen.

my life passed since then, but have thought
of that remark with regret and shame, and as

end my days there, 1 could not go without

Toombs at length

I shared by the company. Toombs at length
broke the embarrassing pause:
'sW-e-l-l, WE'LL, what was the Issue of this
scene 10
Mr.. Calhoun resumed:
ssThe intruder, as l have said, rose and ask
ed to look at my right hand The truth; as
felt strange thrill peryade me at his touch; ;
he grasped the light, thus affording me full
time to examine every feature. 1t was the
the face of Washington Gentlemen, shud-
dered as I-beheld the horrible dead-alive look
of that visagc. After holding my hand for q
moment, he looked at me steadily, and said in
a qniet way. 'And with this right hand, Sena-
| tor from South Carolina, you would sign your
name to a paper declaring the American
Union dissolved 9''
ssI answered in tho affirmative. Yes
said, 'if certain contingency arises, piH
sign my name to the Declaration of Dissolu-
tion.' But at that moment black blotch ap-
peared on the back of my right hand-an fnl1y
blotch which l seem to see now. sWhat is
that p said I, alarmed, 1 know not why, at
the blotch my hand.''
ssThat," said he, dropping my hand, ''is the
the next world -
'sHe said no more, gentlemen, but drew
from beneath his cloak an object which he
laid on the tablc-laid it upon the very paper
on which was writing. The object, gentle
men, was sl1eleton.''
ssThere," said he, ssthcre are the bones of
Isaac Hayne, who was hung at Charleston by
the British. He gave his life in order to es-
tablish the Unen. When you put your name
to Declaration of Dissolution, why you may
as well have the bones of Isaac Hayne before
you he was a South CaroIinian, and sosare
You. But there was no blotch on his hand.''
ssWith these words the intruder left the
room. I started back from the contact with
the dead mans bones, and-awoke. Overworn
by labor l had fallen asleep and had been
dreaming. Was it not a singular dream 70
All the company answered in the affirma-
tive, and TooInbs muttered: ssSingular, very
| singular" and at the same time looking curl
ously at the back of his right hand, while Mr..
Calhoun placed his head between his hands
and seemed buried in thought.

PAT's DREAM.-Two sons of the green and
glorious isle met day or two since, and thuz
colloquized:
ssGood morning, Pat"
ssGood morning Dennis.''
Dennis. ssHow is it wild ye, Pat sc samo
in a quandry.''
Pat. "Bedad, but it's all right ye are with
out knowing it, for it's in that same am. It's
a provoking dhrame I've had.''
Dennis. ssA dhrame was it a good or
bad one a''
Pat. seBad luck, but it was little of both.
i dhramed was wid the Pope, who was as
great gintleman as any boy in the district;
and he axed me would dhrink. Thinks 1,

wouldn't mind taken wee dhrap of punch.
Cowld or hots says the pope. Hot, says I,
and wid that he stepped down to the kitchen
for the hot water; but before he got back
woke up, and now its disthressin' me to think
1 didn't take it cowld.''

BANCROFT on PoPERY.

The distinguished historian of the United
States is not Calvanist, bnt Unitarian. Let
us hear him describe the manner in Which Pa
pists tolerate Protestants in the only example,
in which they exercised supreme control at an
early day within the limits OF these States.
In the first volume of Bancroft is to be
found an account of the massacre of tho
French Protestants at May river, in East Flo
rida, in 1868, by Melender, who announced
himself in these words: 81 am Melender,
sent by the King of Spain with strict orders
to gibbet and behead all Protestants in this re-
gion. The Frenchman who is a Catholic
will spare, but every Protestant shall die"
Bancroft says: s'The captives with their
hands tied behind them, were marched tow
ards st. Augustine like flock of sheep driv-
en- to the slaughter. As they approached tho
fort signal was given, and amidst the sound
of trumpets and drums the Spaniards fell up
on tho unhappy mon who had confided in
their humanity and who could offer no rcsists
aace. a few Catholics were spared, some me-
chanics were reserved as slaves, the rest were
massacred, not as Frcnchmen but as Calyan-
ists.'' The whole number of victims is said
by the French, to have been about 900.
The Papal power throughout the world may
be traced in lines OF blood. Its monuments
arc the bones of those it has slain in cruel
gore. It's voice has ever uttered maledictions
on those who would not cspouse fits enormities
and submit TO its sensualities. The rod of op-
preston has been one of its most powerful, as
it has been of its most destructive weapons.-
1t has from the first been arrayed against gen.
eral progress. 1t is so now. It's fear is to cd
ucate the masses-its hope and effort to keep
them in ignorance. Even its bishops do nos
hesitate to belle history for the purpose of
misleading its victims.-Presbyfsrfan .4dvoeafc

IMPORTANT FROM CHINA.

DIFFICULTY AT HoNG KoSG.-The steamer
America brings intelligence OF the arrest Of
Capt. Nichols, of the American ship Reindeer,
by the British authorities, for an alleged as
sault on one of his crew. 1t seems that fine
was laid on Capt. Nichols, which was paid by
Mr.. Edward Gassett, against the wishes of the
Captain, the L. S. consul, and many other A
mericans, and in consequence the feeling a.
gainst Mr. Gassett was very strong. The
American citizens at Hong Kong are unani-
mons in their approval Of the action pursued
by the United States Consul, james Keenan,,
Esq, and have addressed to him a letter to
that effect From this letter, which we find in
the Boston Courier OF January 22d, we make
the following extract :
a brief review of this may be impor-
tant An American ship arrives in the har-
Dor Of Hong Kong in the lawful pursuit of her
business. One of her crew-lawfully shipped
in the United States-signing the articles to
make the voyage and return to the United
States-deserts the vessel and after an absence
of some days, comes on board, behaves in a
mutinous and outrageous manner towards his
superior officers, is placed in irons, and, ne
cessarily, from his resistance to the proper au-
thorities, treated with severity. Suddenly, in
the absence of the captain, an armed police
force boards the ship, takes from confinement
the person spoken of, and, without exhibiting
sswarrant or authority" conveys him on shore.
Then warrant is issued for the captain for
assault and battery against this rescued priso-
ncr, a suit Instituted, and judgment, under a
protest of the United States consul. given,
sentencing the captain to pay fifty dollars to
the Queen and twenty-five dollars to the plain
tiff, or the defendant to go to Jail.
Under these circumstances the United States
consul places the Captain under the protection
of the United States steam frigate Powhattan
and we cordially support him in his course of
action. we consider that the American prin-
ciple of the denial of the ssright of search,''
and that the 'sAmerican flag and American
law" protect the American citizen when on
just and lawful occupation, has been ably and
patriotically carried out by the United States
Consul in this matter. We also solemnly and
firmly protest against the assumption of for
eign power which assumes to take from and
protect the subordinate of an American ship
against his superior, when that superior simply
performs his duty in discplining his ship un-
der the United States laws-and he protests
against foreign power setting at naught the
laws of the United States, and assuming to
control the internal regulations of an Ameri-
can ship, and we respectfully appeal to our
country to protect us in so serious position.

ANEcporE OF THE New CHArLAIs.-Tho

ago was q resident of northwestern Virginia.
While preaching one day at church situa-
ted a few miles from Fairmount, he was an
noyed by the inattention of his congregation
as manifested in turning their heads to see all
who came in.
"Brethren,'' said he's it is very difficult to
preach when thus interrupted. Now, do you
listen TO me, and I will tell youthe name of
every nah as he enters the church,
OF course, this remark attracted universal
attention.
Presently some one entered.
ssWilliam Satterfeld 20 called out the prea-
cher, while that ssbrother'' was astonished ba-
yond measure, and endeavored in vain to guess
what was the matter.
Another person came in.
s.Brother Joseph Miller !'' bawlod the prea-
cher, with a like result and so, perhaps, in

however, from the pen of that famous sci.

II devoted two days 20 the examination
of the operation of Boydell's traction steam
engine AS a locomotive and tractive power.
and have come TO the conclusion that il
is n great success This success is owing
to the endless and wide railway attached
to tue circumference of the wheels, which
gives fulcrum for the lever, and a bearing
sufficiently wide to carry great weight on
soft ground without imbedding in the soil.
Hence the avoidance of friction and clog.

sink IN, and thus render his power una

pieces of board, the pressure is diminished

OF Mr.. Boydell's machine, although il
weighed nine tons, its impress was scarcely
perceptible, where horses foot left deep

The engine walked from Camden.own 10

When on the soft turnip field, after a

from the cogs OF the driving wheel; and
the power thus suddenly released is carried
