NOVEL LoDGINGs IN NEW YoRK.- A New York correspondent of the New Haven News says-e A novel mode of securing lodgings is practiced by considerable number of person $ when they happen to be out late at night and ln consequence are locked out of doors at home, or, more likely. who have become inebriated and do not want to disclose the fact to their families. Many such will jump into the city cars, which run all night, and ride back and forth over the line. Many of the roads are from three to four miles ill length, and consume two hours in making round trip. Thus person can ride from l2 at night until 6 in the morning, at an expense of tEirty cents This is cheaper than lodging at an hotel, besides the additional advantage of being up early in the morning."

A PLEASANT WIFE TO LIVE WIrH-In the inves- tisation of the Valley Falls poisoning case of the witnesses testified that three four years ago Mrs. Studey intimatcd to her how she could dispose of her husband The following was Mrs Studley S (thcn Mrs. Jones) advice:
 "Mrs. Jones then said, I would not bear it he is not able to do anything, and if you in danger why do you put up with it give him something to still him down, and don't let your right hand know what your left hand doeth. let my right hnnd knor ,ehat the left hand doeh by this course could get along very well. Give him something that would still him down you would not be plagued with him but little whle-for it z nobody's busi- ness what we do should never get along so. If there friends of his here so much the better there would be nobody to q"cstion I did not
 The jury returned verdict to the effect that Mr. Studley to his death from poison administered by his wife, and warrant was immediately issued for her arrest.

NEW CANNoN.-The Ordnance Department has been making experiments with new rife cannon, the invention of Sylvanus Sawyer, of Fltchburg, Massachusetts, and great delight is expressed at it's success. At the distance of one mile, the body of an ordinary sized trve would not be missed once in fifty times, So ex- act are line shots. In seventeen shots at 8 distance of one mile, the fartherest was not over three feet from the centre of the tree. Such shooting was never known before.
 The cannon has groove like the rifle, which forms circle in twenty feet. The gun now heinz tested is a small one, carrying only abont a six pound ball, and has been fired over two hundred times, without the slightest injury. Thc ball is shaped like the Minnie rife bail and is filled with powder, which explodes after striking and entering an object. The great discovery of Mir. Sawyer has been in adapting the cannon ball to grooved gun. To effect this, the iron ball is first timed, and then coy. cred with coating of lead near quarter of an inch thick, with leaden ridges on the sur face; fitting exactly.-Register.

ANEcDoTE OF GEN. WAsHINGTO,

ANECDOTE OF GEN. WASHINGTON,
 In l796, Isleard respectable farmer mar rate tue following incident =
 Said he, when the British army held pos session of New York, and Washington, with the American army, lay near West Point. one morning l went out at sunrise to bring home the cows cn passing clump of brush-W ood, l heard moaning sound-lke a person in dis tress on nearing the spot, heard the words of a man at prayer. 1 listened behind tree 1; the man came forth-it was GEoRGE WASH INGToN, the Captain of the Lord's host in North America.
 This farmer was member of the Society of Friends who, being opposed to War under any pretext, and in some cases opposed to the cause of the country he was tory. How ever, having seen the General enter the camp, he went to his own house, and said to his wife, {" Martha, we must not oppose this war any longer ; this morning heard the man George Washington, send up d pray to heaven for his country, aud I know it will be heard" This friend dwelt between the lines, aud sent Wash irgton many items concerning the movements of the el.emy, which rendered good service.
 From this incident We may infer that Wash ington rose with tue sun to pray for his coun- try. He fought for her at meridian, and watched for her al midnight his bible was his chart of independence, no liberty without it. In Til, when the Goddess of Liberty was babe in the cradle, she was rocked to maturity ill the bible shops of Massachusetts !; the sowing machine, the hoeing machine aud the moving machine, were first put in motion by men who read the bible in the district schools of New England
 James Watts, the son of a Scottish peas- ant and Robert Fulton, born ill PennsyIva- nia. were the first that applied steam to any useful purpose the bible was their chief school book.
 Benjamin Franklin, S. F. B. Morse and Cy- rus w. Field, all read the bible in their schools as soon as they had learned the A.. $. c. GRANT THoRBuRN, Sen'r.

STRIKING AND SOLEMN PRovIDENCEs.-A very ex- traurlinary illustration of the uncertainty of life oc cured in Philadelphia last week. One of the fire companies was called out by an alarm on Thursday night and whilst engaged in their duties of their humber fel from the wharf at the foot of Shipper street, and drowned. His funeral took place on the Sabbath, and whilst the minister was standing over the open grave addressing the comrades of the deceased on tle uncertainty of life another member of the company suddenly fell, and expired in few minutes. The same hearse which bore the corpse of to its last resting place. carried back that of other to be prepared for burial This event, may be supposed, produced deep impression. It was made the topic of most solemn appeals to the crowd ed prayermecting at the house of the Diligent Con- pany on last Sabbath evening. It is to be hoped this admontory event may prove, in the hands of God, the of extending the work of grace in progress among this important class.

MIR. BAcoN's LEcrunEs-Mr. Bacon, by his recent Lectures in this Village on China, Japan and Siam has left good impression upon the public mind, We think he bids fair to becon one of the most popular Lecturers in the country. Ills descriptions are remarkably vivid and graphic, his enunciation clear and impressive, and his manner modest and dsnihed. We can say for ourselves with truth that we never before had the pleasurs of listening to more interesting series of Lectures on sub- Jects Of the same class Other writers have treated geographically upon the subjects but they fall behind this young Lecturer, in fe-lke portraiture pleasing imagery, and eloquent delineation There is freshness and beauty of coloring in all his descriptive efforts, which we may seek for in vain, in the works of many prctcnt:ous writer. Mr. Bacon has best and warmest wishes for his suc cess and prosperity through all the coming periods of life.

 Gov. nenver of Kansas has decided that the new legislative election in the Territory must be held under the old apportionment, and that the iniqui- tous apportionment can only be changed by the Legislature itself.
 Advices from Vermont inform us that the Supreme Court of that State have declared the law passed by Ahe Legislature giving the bondholde,s in actual possession of railroad property the right to elect Trustees of the same, unconstitutional The de- cision was made in case of the Rutland railroad, but applies equally to the Vermont Central railroad The English of this decision appears to be that the poor deluded bondholders of these two roads have no right to the management of their own property
 TIE STATEN ISLAND MYSTERY. An investigation into circumstances brought to light respecting the mysterious disappearance of Mrs BRENNAN, wf o has been missing since the 20th of last month, was com menced before Justsce of the Peace at Tompkins- vlle Staten Island, yesterday. will be recollec ted that the missing lady seen to enter a car riage at Tompkinsville the evening of the 10th Since then no trace of her has been found notwith standing every exertion has been made to discover her The brother of Mrs. Brennan caused the arrest of several drivers of public carriages at Tompkins- yile and it was to find out from these drivers what knowledge they had of the matter that the investi gation was instituted. The testimony, however. 30 far fails to throw any satisfactory light upon this mysterious affair and the evidence did not in any way implcate the parties arrested.

The Price of Wales, who is only IT years of age, bids fair to become fit successor to the last Prince of Wales-the very fast George ". The Prince, it is reported, to the horror of his mother, the Queen, has been detected in an intrigue with one of the ladies-n-waiting to her Majesty. The result was the immedi ate sending of the precocious youth on a visit of penitences to Ireland. This incident will perhaps delay the establishment of the youl.g Prince in his own house--a measure to whicl, her Majesty had given consent, and which was soon to be realized.
