The LEGISLATURE (" Warrington the
Springfield Republicans Boston correspondent
writes as follows:
1.-The House are in the midst of constitu-
tional reform, or constitutional tinkering
again. T. ese Know Nothing tinkerers are
the clumsiest of all thinkers, making at least
two holes where they mend one. Just think
OF Devereux of Salem, and John Littlefeld
of savory Nunnery memory, undertaking to
determine who the people Of Massachusetts
shall elect to office for the next twenty years
or more. Why, there never was foreigner
chosen to the Legislature In this State, who
was not infinitely superior in honesty to the
first, and in intelligence to the second named
of these orators. Devereux's speech was a
dismal Sahara waste of words and bombast,
varied with an occasional oasis of dirty stories
and stale quotations. One of his prodigious
arguments consisted of one of these stories.
He told Of settlement of Dutchmen in Penn
sylvania, who were a dreadfully ignorant set
of people, and to prove their ignorance and
unftness for taking part in government, he
said that one of them was asked his age, and
he replied, Mine wife IL dirty, and I'm dirty
too You will be able to appreciate the
strength of an argument, Of which this was
one of the strong points. l venture to say
that Devereux never gave an answer to a
question half so honest and unequivocal as
the answer the Dutchmau made"

PERHAM's CONCERT The concert given by
the Misses Hall on Friday evening was very
agreeable and satisfactory one, and number of
the pieces were warmly encored. One striking
feature of their performances-and tits what gave
the Hutchinsons their great popularty-is, their
clear enunciaton, and distinct articulation, so
that the words of every piece could be distinctly
understood in every part of the hall. Notwith-
standing mistake or neglect, by which INSULT
cient notice had been given, the hall was nearly
filled, and we believe the wish is very general,
among those present. that the accomplished ar
tstes may soon visit us again.

A USEFUL ARTIcLE.-In calling the attention

dard, in this paper, particularly the one relating
to Spectacles, we avail ourselves of the opportu
nifty of saying, that we have used those made of
the Scotch Pebble" and find them to excel any,
thing of the kind we have ever tried. The con.
slant and severe use of our eyes, from morning
till late at night, much of the time in readingvery
small print, well as in proof reading, which
tries the eyes severely, makes Unnecessary to avail
ourselves of all the aid that the best glasses can
give; and we conceive of nothing superior to
the Scotch Pebble for that purpose, it is so per-
fectly clear and transparent and so free from the
slightest color, to interrupt the rays of light It's
hardness, also. presents perfect safeguard from
scratching or defacing, by the toughest usage, so
that after beng for years, they are still as
perfect as when first used. We believe there is
but one opinion as to the great superiority of
these spectaclcs, among all those who have given
them trial

This is remarkable work by an author un.
known to public fame, but yet whose success, in
this instance, impresses the mind with a convic-
ton that her pen is no Impractical one 1t is a
work of power, of thought. of deep and abiding
interest. There is no commonplace about it 1t
is as fresh and reviqinf the air of fine morn
ing in May. The sympathies of the reader are
intensely excited during the trials of Christine,
and we therefore rejoice the more heartily with
her in her trumphs. But it is not Christine
alone that interests us. There are other and
striking portraits in the work. The plot is we'll
managed, and yet does not fall into the old, com
mon, and long beaten track. The work will COM
mand success from its intrinsic merits and I'M
doubtedly have wide circulation. 1t is for sale
