DECLINE OF BORDER RUFFIANIsM.--Of all the
recent political phenomena, this was the most
notable and monstrous-the ism which Moloch
himself might have cxulted in begetting. 1t
was the organization of a conspiracy bound by
ouths, and was distinguished by deeds which
have left an indeiblc stain upon the character
of this State Yet we will say that it was more
of temporary ebullition than the manifestation
of ineradicable peryersity. Violent, but tempo
rary, it has left no lasting result but the red
blot on the page of history. The border coun-
ties, where it mustered its hands, are now tram
quill. The Missouri river is as free from its vi
stations as the Gulf of Mexico from pirates. 1t
is thoroughly tanned, and dispirited, and disor
ganizcd. II secs with the lcthargy of despair
Kansas ripening into free State. 1t has cow
cred before public opinion, and remains quies
cent under punishment, acknowledging by its
silence the Justice which it defied in the day of
its swash-buckler reckessness. The South fail
ed to supportit with the sinews of war, MisSou-
ri rebukedit, the world denounced it, and it has
shrunk into impotency and imbicility like ma
MAC when the fury of madness has departed
It's great leader Atchison, is heard of no more
in the haunts Of men. Its less distinguished
champions will follow him TO the grateful obscu-
rity which such ponitents covet. Who speaks
a border ruffian' for Senator? Sterling Price is
buried with his face downwards, Naptcn has
the choice of idleness or pcttiEogging, String
fellow is ham-strung, and Green alone has sue
cecded in getting into position, which will be
chiefly remarkable for showing his want of cha
racter and talent Allah is great

a MYSTERIOUS PERsoNAGE-lnto q certain
we!l-known restaurant in Park row, Says the
New York TribGnel every day, punctually at
q p. m, walks an elderly gentleman, who pro-
cecds straight to private box No. Z, which at
this time of day is always reserved for him.
There he draws down the curtain and busics
himself reading one ofthc morning papers until
his dinner, which is invariably composed of the
same dishes, is prepared for him. His gold
headed cane, with black silk cord and tassel, his
rul1led shirt, his queue, and his white neck
cloth, and more than all his precise and lofty
polite demeneanor declare him gentleman of
the old school, When his dinner is ready, it
is set before him, and two bottles of claret wine
are uncorked, and with two wine glasses are
placed on the table. The old gentleman then
Systematically proceeds to finish both his din
ner and the wine, and his manner of disposing
of the latter is what causes him to be regarded
with unusual curiosity by the frequenters of the
house. He fills two glasses drinks the contents
of one himself and then spills the other on the
floor. and thus continues until both bottles are
emptied What invisible friend he imagncs to
be present with himselfto enjoy the feast; what
unknown deity he propitiates by this prOfuse
libation no one can tell. Certain it is that for
more than three years has he persisted in this
curious custom, and during that time has not
spoken to any one connected with the establish
ment one single word. His first order was
written on slip of paper, with instructions to
duplicate it every day until the order was coun=
demanded. WHO the individual is who perse
veres in these strange whims, the proprietors of
the restaurant does not know, and he has too
much respect for his pocket to interfere with
the peculiarities of the mysterious customer.

FAuIr FINDING HusBANDs.-We are in tho
daily receipt of letters (says an exchange) from
and Respondent wives, who state
that their husband continually scold and find
fault with them, no matter how hard they try to
please; and the writers also ask what they can
do to satisfy the reasonable men, and gain lit
tie peace and comfort2 To all these unfortunate
wives, we can only say-You will have to look
for peace in the grave. A man who habitually
scolds his wife, and who is given to constant
fault-finding at home, is beyond thereach of re
formatory human influence. A scolding wife is
bad enough, but fault finding husband is alto
gethcr disgusting and disgraceful: he is an ig-
noble tyrant "a nuisance pest, and ought to
be extinguislied like bed-bug or cockroach.

DOUGLAS JERRoLD.-Thc National ltdgaziRe
has sketch of Douglas Jerrold, from which
we clip the following interesting extract:
"By this time it is no secret that he is repu-
ted in London literary circles to be the wittiest
man going. In grave, downright or discursive
conversation, or in eloquent and varied monolo-
que, there may be others of our metropolitan
men of letters who come up to him or suTpaSs
him; but in the one quality of wit, and, above
all, in the facility of instant, pungcnt flashing,
blasting retort, he is believed to have no equal.
Not that he is peculiarly argumentative and
combativc man, far less that he is really cynical
or ill-natured. His ordinary or spontaneous
talk is bright, free various, anecdotic, fanciful
and often very earnest, though still characteri-
zed by a play of wit But the fashion of wit
colnbats, even among friends has not yet gone
out and often where there is no difference atall
OF where, if there is difference, tits perfectly
amicahle one something will be said by some
one present containing withinit the element by
possibility of jest-a jest confirmation, jest
critical, jest sarcastic, jest disSolvcnt, jest
personal to the speaker or Jest purely arbitra-
ry and fantastic. Then is Mr.. Jerrold's moment
a fash. and it is out! Away somewhere among
the atfnities, one could count two: the thing
has been caught; word has been doubled up,
an analogy seized on the wing; two ideas that
had iain apart since chaos are suddenly brought
together; the quickest henrer has it first; the
laugh goes round like cracker; and, just when
the rest are done, the metaphysical Scotchman
at the end of the table cries ont, Il see it, and
sends round the laugh again. When the jest is
confirmative or fantastic. all are pleased; when
it is critical, or sarcastic, or dssovent the spea
ker may go on Mt the peril of another; when it
is personal and no harm is meant, good fellow
will keephis temper There is, perhaps, no con-
yersation in which Mr. Jerrold takes part,
that does not elicit from him half dozen of
supremely good things of the kind described"

An AFFECTING scESE.-A Washington cores
pondent of the Montgomery Advertiser and
Alabama State Gazette, describes truly touch
ing scene that occurred over the dead body of
the late Mr.. Brooks.
No one having even the common sensibilities
of our nature, can read what follows unmoved !:
About ten minutes after his death, the vencra-
Bile old Senator, whose lucks are now white with
the rosts of age, came into the room, and upon
seeing him cold in the embrace of death, threw
himself upon his bosom and wept as if his heart
would burst from its bounds. Judge Butler had
lavished the attention and affection Of many years
upon Mr. Brooks, and he seemed to. be the i'm
portant object of his solicitudc and existence,
and while the death sweat still stood upon the
brow of the Immortal sleeper the old man cal
leditothe fleeing spirit in tones ofsorrow, that
moved the pitying hearts of those who stood
round to tears-"My boy, my boy, my boy!"
andssuch scene Of mourning and sorrow, as
was witnessed there, cannot be comprehended,
g much less repeated here.
