ETThe editor of the Rockport Democrat
pronounces statement of ours "a base, wilful
and corrupt lie" Yet this statement was
made by us in full belief of its truth from IN
formation given US, and with nc motive what
soeyer to deceive others. A gentleman would
simply have charged US with being mistaken
"a backyard could not well help illustrating
his nature or the unhappy home neglect of his
youth, by using the language of his class. If
the editor of the Democrat cannot better ap-
preciate the courtesies of gentlemanly inter-
course, or if his past life and connections have
afforded him no opportunity of becoming ac-
quainted with the language and manners OF
gentleman, we hope that hereafter he will not
make us acquainted with the habits of black
guard by insisting upon perusal of his paper.

OF A writer in the Enquirer calling him
self "Fair Play' is much grieved that the ed
itorial in the Journal alluding to the boat yard
meeting did not mention the names of all the
gentlemen whe figured at the meeting, even
emitting the secretary's name. We were I'M
able to attend that meeting, and the report OF
it for this paper was made by another
person. We have much more cause of com
plant against the editor of the Enquirer, than
he has against us. As Secretary of the meet
ing he should have furnished US with copy
of the proceedings for publication, as we have
repeatedly furnished his office on similar oc-
casions. He did not do it nor has be done it
yet. We did not copy the proceedings from
the Enquirer simply because our Report gave
a much fuller and better account OF the pro-
ceedings-

o. John Petit is now engaged in making
Old Line speeches about Lafayette, unfolding
the Pierce Administration and its slavery ex-
tension principles. Yet this same fellow vo-
ted for the Wilmot Proviso, and in speech
made in 1847, used the following emphatic
language:
with MY VOTE, AND WITH MY
VOICE, / SHALL NOT SUPPORT ANY
PROPOSITION THAT WILL TOLERATE.
EVEN FOR MOMENT, A FURTHER
EXTENSION OF SLAVERY, BELIEVING
AS DO, IT is A CURSE-A CURSE TO
MANKIND; A CURSE TOTHE WORLD
So then believed the whole Democratic par
ty of this State. Let it be remembered.

A QUEER PLACE TO FIGHT.-Some years

and his corps Of divers were employed in clean
ing the wreck of the Royal George from the
anchorage at Spithead, two privates in the
Sappers and miners at work under water
squabbled and had a set to in the briuy deep.
One of them succeeded in breaking window
in his antgonist's helmet, and the unfortunate
diver was dragged up to the surface half
drowned.

A MURDER TRIAL-APPEARAHcE OF THE
MURDERED ONE.-The Cleveland Plaindeal.
er says:
"On Saturday m examination took place
before Esq. HessenmuelIer of Michael VIVID.
gert, for the murder Of his wife. This pros.
ecution was induced by the sudden disap.
pearance of the woman about nix weeks since.
and it wns supposed, from the habitual i'll
treatment to which she had been subject, that
she had been murdered. No trace of her
could be found and the statement of the de-
tendant confirmed the suspicion. The ev-
idence had been heard, and though il was
clrcumstantial, the probability of the murder
was strongly sustained: At this juncture-
the court room being crowded by excited
speciators-the woman alleged to have been
murdered made her appearance, to the great
surprise and qualification of all, and especial.
y of the culprt on trial. The woman Ind
abandoned her liege lord and sought the asy-
lum for the poor ut the infrmary, where,
sick and forlorn, she had received care and
cure. She, OF course, was totally ignorant
OF the charge of murder against her hus.
band and il was only by accident that the
Intelligence came TO those who were cogn-
zant Of the trial, and she was sought out and
produced at the court, to the pleasant aston.
ishment Of all concerned"

STARTLING PHENoMENoN.-The Atchison
(Kansns) Squatter Sovereign says: Mr.. Par.
ker and son were attending some fish lines on
the river about three miles above here, when
they were surprised by continuous, unusu-
al roaring toward the middle of the stream;
the night was without wind. Owing to the
darkness, no effort was made to ascertain the
cause of this strange noise until daylight,
when 1t was seen that Whirlpool of large
extent was in active operation some two
hundred yards from the Missouri shore, " hich
still continues in operation, drawing in n
great body of water; so much, indeed that the
volume OF the river below is sensiby lessen.
ed. Driftwood and large floating logs 60 in
md disappear totally. Many hundreds
went up to see this strange sight. Unless
this immense chasm soon fills up with water,
the effect upon navigation will be calamito US
indeed, for il would seem that the bottom Of
the river was really fallen out.

WoMAs's LovE.-A young man, formerly
of this city, who was arrested last Spring and
condemned for bigamy, was released one day
this week, having served out his time, and
WINS met at the depot by his first wife, who
had not seen HIM before for several years.-
The meeting was of very affeciionue char.
acter. The young wife iorgave his indiscre-
tion, and took him t" n clothing store, where
she purchased II nice suit of clothes for him,
which he donned, when she placed in his
hands purse of three hundred dollars, that
she had earned since he had left her bed and
board. The next day the reunited and happy
couple took the cars for New Hampshire,
where, among the pure air of the Granite
Hills, we trust their cup of connubial bliss
may always remain full. For such an ex.
preston of affection as this, the words of the
poet are altogether too tame.-Newburyporl
Herald.

FUN.-The Sierra Citizen, edited in spirit.
ed manner, among the mountains of Caiifor.
mia, has the following little chapter on fun:
awe like fun. 1t is great institution"
fit was to come to that, we should vote for
it with big ballot Fun! 1t is what keeps
most of us from getting sour-it adjusts the
equpois of lite-it melows the flesh, oils the
bones rosties the brain-sets one risht wher-
his tendency is another way. Blessings on
the man, woman, or who or what else, invent.
ed fun. How much has it done for YOU rea
der, yourself, Smith, Brown, Jenkins, and the
rest of the folks! What n monster-what n
"trute." Dark, sour, gloomy, scpulchral,
cold. Bali! Everybody avoids him. And
women who recoi from or repuse fun. Con.
science and the Crimea, what beings! Her
countenance is an appalling coud--her voice
as of the tomb-her disposition cross be-
tween the lost ship of lemons and Il dcmiion
of suphurc acid! Ugh! Turn your feet,
your eye, your hand from her. She's either
spoiled in making, growing, or keeping. Fun
What would the world do without it! Mo-
mus and Joe Miller forever. What sunshine
and roses are to nature, SO is fun to man and
woman"
