The Washington correspondent of the
New York Post states that Ex-President
Pierce will settle down on farm in the In
terror of his native State, New Hampshire,
where, for the rest of his life, he will devote
himself to the raising of horses and stock cat
tie. Three of his horses left Baltimore last
week, in the Boston steamer on their way to
New Hampshire.
- Seven years ago there was but little
madder sent from Marseilles to the United
States; now it is shipped by the cargo, and
the demand for it steadily increases. -Four
years ago neither American -four nor Ameri-
can pork were to be found in the French
market, but of late large quantities have been
imported. This importation was not produ-
ced by the war, for it will continue to exist,
and its fluctuations will depend upon the
natural laws of trade.
The White Sulphur Springs, of Green
brier, Va, have been purchased by com.
pany of Virginia capitalists, for the sum OF
s75O,OO0, and are to have expended upon
them, as speedily as possible, some $3.50, 600,
for extending the accommodations and beau
tifying the grounds. The prominent stock.
holders are Messrs. Caperton and Berne, of
Monroe, Macfarland. Of Richmond, and
William Caldwell, of Greenbricr. Mr..
Caldwell is to be continued as the active
manager. .....
Memphis, Tenn, is decidedly great
place in its way. A few days since case
was pending in the Common Law Court OF
that city in which Mr.. and Mrs. Helbing
had sued Phillip R. Bohlen, for breach of
marriage contract in failing to marry Mrs.
Helbing when she was Miss Agnes Hand
werker, and the jury has given the injured
parties 81, $50 damages! The idea of Hell
bing suing Bohlen because he did not mar
ry his wife, is certainly the richest thing of
this fast age!
The following estimate has been made
of the probable amount which it costs the in
dividual members of the different Churches
in the United States to sustain their respec-
tive Churches. The estimate is founded
upon the last United States census A Bap-
tist or Methodist three dollars and forty
cents; Presbyterian seven dollars;a Con-
gregationlist ten dollars; Roman Catholic
fourteen dollars; an Episcopalian eighteen
dollars; Reformed Dutch twenty-five dol
lars; Unitarian twenty-three dollars.
We learn from the Louisiana papers
that at the close of the session of the legisla-
ture of that State motion was made to al
low Mr.. j. A. Warner, secretary of the SEN
ate, $500 extra compensation, when that
gentleman Immediately arose and requested
the mover to withdraw it; said that he ac-
cepted the Office with knowledge of the sala-
~, and wanted no more! Mr.. Warner is q
democratic editor, and rara asis. We
shall look upon the Alexandria La } DEM
ocrat as luminous streak amid the misty
clouds of the political horizon.
"A friendly suit is about to be institu-
ted in England, before referee, to settle
a dispute which has arisen as to the disposal
of the revenues of the fisheries on the coast
of Cornwall, from which coast the Prince of
Wales has, as such, for centuries, received
a large income. A London paper says:
"Some idea of the difficulties which will at
tend the solution of this knotty point may
be formed from the fact that the documents,
which are to be investigated, extend as far
back as 800 years before the birth of Christ"
The decision of the referee, (Sir John Pat
terson, it has been agreed, shall be final.
There is no discount on the truth of
this paragraph: Some men advertise for
short time after they commence business,
and think that is sufficient; others intermit
advertising after they have established a
Aourishing business by its aid. This is
mistake. From the moment house ceases
to advertise, however, large its reputation
and standing, it begins to decline. The
changes are so rapid in this country, the
public mind so constantly occupied by new
applicants for its favor and its attention, that
to be out of the papers where everybody
seeks for information on every subject, is to
be forgotten. The press is daily more and
more becoming necessity, and its useful
ness as an advertising medium is as constant
ly increasing. No man is wise, or just to
himself, who undertakes to do business with
out availing himself, Of its advantage.
"A singular event occurred at Naples
the 4th of March. On the occasion of the
birth of child at the Palace, the eigth roy
al infant, it was hoped that there would be
an amnesty of greater or lesser extent But
there were only few notifications made in
the degrees of punishment of certain priso
ners, and great irritation among the popu-
lace was the consequence. Incendiary bills
and tri-colored cockades were thrown through
the streets for two days, until the police had
been increased to such number that all
such demonstrations were rendered impossi-
BILE. On the night of the 4th the police had
been very active in making its rounds until
toward daylight, when no longer anticipating
q renewal of disturbances, the surveillance
ceased for moment of repose. Immediate
ly, and as if by magic, the walls of the city
