Price, one dollar. Though the author
ess of this work apparently makes her

principles and sentiments which betoken
a pure and generous heart in the writer
The Heroine, Christine, is one of many
who are quietly fulfilling their woman's
destiny, urappreciated and misunder-
stood. With life's best hopes crushed
in the bud; she does not yield to DARK
despair, but rallying the brightest ener
gies Of her soul, passes through the fur
mace unscathed. at peace with herself
and blessing to the world. The book
was written for and read to Miss Curtis
parents, and teaches lesson to heads o
families, which is seldom two we'll learn

THE IEGISLATUIsE.

The Legislature of this State adjourn
edson the ] Ith inst. They would have
adjourned ON the 9th, had itsnot been fn
the factious conduct Of ,he Locofoeo
members who refused to vote for sus-
pension Of the rules so that one or two
important bills could be read a second
and third time and voted upon, which re-
quired concurrence of three iourlhs ol
the House.
The Journal says the bill providing
for the amount of levy OF taxes for the
ensuing year, and the bill providing for
the appointment commissioners TO TX
anime into the condition of the Treasury,
the Public Works, the Public Institu-
lions and The ne y State House, Were to
be considered and acted upon. They
were read the first time, and, ordinary
courtesy, such as has been extended 10
the opposition during the session by
the majority. shonld have secured their
assent to suspension of'the rule SO that
vote could have been taken on their pas
sage. But, they So acted as to make il
imperatively necessary to continue the
session Two days longer, that these bills
might be passed. The people will re-
member these men. They have imposed
an expense OF more thau a Thousand dol
lars upon the Treasury without any pub
lie necessity for it, aa sa 9af aEsst
The object o, this factious conduct was
to defeat the passage ofthe bill provid
ing for an examination into the affairs Of

If the measure could not be defeated,
then to compel the substitution Of some
other name than that of Mr. Brown Of

While the lac Legislature was one Of
the most quiet and unassuming, twas at
the same time l. most industrious body
Of the kind that has assembled in this
State for many years-do,ng more work
in | IS time than is usually accomplished
by an Ohio Legislature. A great many
very important bills have been passed,
and time will determine whether their en-
actment has been wise and judicious or
not. TO err is human, and legislative
bodies, as well as indiyidu; Is, are liable
to make mistakes.
We expected to publish al the laws
having general application, but it seems
there are those. in authority who think it
would not justify the expense. and con-
sequeatly only a small portion Of them
will appear in the Pioneer" and our
citizens, as wen as officers will b. compel

doubt its expediency-we think oil tie
generallaws should be published, in the
different counties as early as possible.
The Bank Bill, in which all are more
or less interested, was passed previous to
the hour of adjournment-in fact there
were quite a number of very important
bills passed during The last two or three
days of the session.
They vii meet again on the first Mon
day of January next.

control the Amazon, the West Indies,

gions. 1t also defends the re-establish

measure of wise and Christian. philan-
thropy,' The Standard thinks that with
Brazil and the United States united in
the common policy of cultiyatine the
tropics by slave labor, the wealth am rs
sed would be SO great, and the power oil
the nation rise to snch a pitch, that the
whole world mi ght be de6ed. The plan
has, at least, the merit of being colossal.
No Roman Emperor, in the plenitude OF
his ambition, ever conceived project
more stupendous. Yet there is nothing
strange in this; for the power which
threatens to conquer the United States
may be expected to attempt the conquest
of the world.

The French Baby.

= The French people are making as much
fuss. over the birth of Louis Napoleon's
baby, as though twas the first babee that
was ever born. In our opinion they are
making great ado about nothing--we
have. "little joker we cali "Kate, y

peror's babies, and was no greatex

this ague cursed atmosphere. We would
not hesitate towager a pine of big pota-
toes that she can .'whale," not only the,
Emperor's youngster, but all the babies
in Nappy's Kingdom. Rsh
But, joking aside, we do think that the
conduct of the rulers as well as the peo-
pie Of France upon tho occasion of the
birth Of the young Prince, was silly, re
diculous-a kind of national farce. s
The latest item on the subject that we
have noticed, is S statement Of the fact
that the Emperor and Empress are to
stand God Father and God Mother to al
the children born On The same day with
the young Prince Of Frogdom, and that
the boys are all to be called Louis Napo
leon, and the girls Eugenia.
France is, emphatically, a Nation oI
fools, and they are generally best con.
tented when they have the greatest foo
