ARSENIC EATERS. A St Louis paper states that
beautiful, died very suddenly Their dearest
fIiends say they were arsenic caters and that they
died from an overdose of the deadly drng So it
appears that the Hungarian vice has commenced
its deadly work here. 1t is said that arsenic does
all that is claimed for it. It increases the capacity
for enjoyment, it makes the pulse full and bound
ing, it gives luster to the eye, roundness to
each limb, and blends the rose and lily on the
cheek. But what is the penalty! Death--horri-
BILE, terrible, agonizing. To produce the effect
mentioned, they who use it must constantly in
crease the dose. Even supposing we commence
with the thousandth part of grain the point will
soon be arrived at when the increased dose will
kill and the failure to take it will be certain tor
ture and death

BLUNT PREACHER. Here, for instance, is an
anecdote Of old Peter Cartwright, noted Meth
odist preacher, which illustrates his Western pecu
liarity 'While he was preaching some years ago
General jackson entered the church, when pas
tor. seated in the pulpit, gave his brother Cart
wright nudge and whispered that the old hero
had just come in, as much as to advise, Now be
particular in what you say But Peter, to the as
tonishment of every one louder than ever exclaim-
ed, who cares for General jackson? He'll 90 to
hell as soon as anybody, if he doesn't repent
When the sermon-a homemade one--was ended
a friend asked the General what he thought of that
rough old fellow, and received for an answer, Sir
give me twenty thousand of such men, and I'll
whip the world, including the devil'n

THE OTHER SIDE. There are two sides to every
story, and in no instance is the axiom more true
than in that of the political history of Nicaragua
Spain originally possessed all Central America
When her dominion ceased the five States--Guat
emala, San Salvador Honduras Nicaragua and
Costa Rica-succeeded to the Spanish sovereignty
as independent republics From this period the
Nlcaraguan flag waved without intermission over
the river and port of San Juan del Norte (Grey-
town. until, by order of Lord Palmerstons minis
try, the British admiral in 1S4S drove out the MIC
araguan authorities, pulled down their flag. and
hoisted the Mosquito ensign in its stead. Thus
without any warning-without going through the
preliminary of demand nor the formula of a de-
claration of warthe only Atlantic seaport of
Nicaragua was, in time of profound peace wrest-
ed from her by the Palmerston administration, in
style which, if not termed flibuster can not
readily be distinguished from it. The existence Of
protectorate over the Mosquito Indians did not
require that the flag which had waved over San
Juan for more than one hundred and fifty years
should be forcibly displaced to make room for the
drapery OF an ignorant savage. This treacherous
and overbeating act Of powerful nation like
Great Britain, towards weaker State, has left an
lndebe stigma upon the United States which per-
mitted, and upon Great Britain which inflicted the
wrong.
Nor did the English government stop there
They about the same time seized Tigle Island,
which commands the Gulf of Fonseca on the Pa
cific Ocean, and the Bay Islands, which belong to
Honduras. Tuis occurred after the United States
acquired California The government of Ncara-
qua, through fear of the power of Great Britain,
made no attempts to regain the port and territory
Of which it had been so summarly deprived, but
contentcd itself with simply protesting against the
wrong, and relying on this country for redress.
When it subsequently appointed Judge for Grey
town, as one Of the judicial districts Of the State
it was duly admonished to desist by her Majestys
Consul in Central America. In view of these facts,
Cen Walker may be regarded as the iberator of
Nicaragua, for he comes to relieve the State from
domestic dssension and foreign oppression. What
the iibuster Palmerston took away, the flibuster
Walker seeks to restore. If Walker revives the
confederation Of Central America, and resumes
possession of Greytown on the part of Nicaragua,
his adopted country may justly style him both
protector and liberator.--N Y Herald.

SENTENCE FOR LIFE. An old convict in the Ohio
Penitentary has been confined therein thirty years,
and was sentenced for life. He was sent from But

was in Jail some two years before final conviction
and sentence. He is about sixty years of age,
large frame and very portly. He has been man
Of powerful nerve and sinew. Perhaps the strong

years he has been suffered to remain idle, and
amuse himself in taking care of bear deer, and
fowls about the yard. He has been up to this time

fields adjacent to the prison-and carried stone

the State owes him for all the work he has done;

THE PHANTOM.
BY BAYARD TAYLOR

BY BAYARD TAYLOR.
Again sit within the mansion,
In the old familiar seat;
And shade and sunshine chase each other
Ger the carpet at my feet.
But the sweet-briar's arms have wrestled upward.
In the summers that are past,
And the willow trails its branches lower
Than when | saw them last.
They strive to shut the sunshine wholly
From out the haunted room;
10 i'll the house, that once was joyful
With silence and with gloom
And many kind, remembered faces
Within the doorway come
Voices that wake the sweeter music
Of one that now is dumb.
They sing, in tones as glad as ever
The songs she loved to hear
They braid the rose in summer garlands,
Whose flowers to her were dear
And still, her footsteps in the passage,
Her bushes at the door,
Her timid words of maiden welcome,
Come back to me once more.
And, all forgetful of my sorrow,
Unmndful of my pain,
L think she has but newly left me,
And soon will come again.
She stays without perchance, moment,
To dress her dark-brown hair;
l hear the rustic of her garments
Her light step on the stair
o, futtering heart control thy tumult,
Lest eyes profane should see
My cheek betray the rush of rapture
Her coming brings to me!
She tarries long but lo whisper
Beyond the open door,
And, gliding through the quiet sunshine
shadow on the hoor
All! tits the whispering pine that calls me,
The vine, whose shadow strays
And my patient heart must still await he,
Nor chide her long delays.
But my heart grows sick with weary waiting,
AS many time before:
Her foot is ever at the threshold,
Yet never passes DER.

for the zeal displayed by him in sending world
