A FEDERAL USIoS FOR CANApa.-Mr. CALI, a
prominent msmbeT Of the Canadian Legislative
Assembly. now Ia session at Toronto, has pre-
pared and published series OF resolutions three
IN number, which he is about 10 offer In that
body, In favor Of Federal L MON for the two
CaLadas, in lieu Of the Leg islan .eS MON now
listing; and contemplating also general confed-
Grafton OF all the British No. tn American Prov
inces. The FIRST OF Mr.. Galt's resolutions recon-
Inends. in view Of local and ic ulties
that Canada East and Canada .s.,est should each
have a Legislature OF its own, and that there
should be genera al Legislature and Government
for both Provinces, to which all subjects of ma.
tioDsl and common Importance should he refer
red. The idea, borrowed from our system, il
sensible aud practical. Thereean be- no harmony
between the diverse populations of the two Can
adas 50 long az all their local Legislation is trans
acted in one common body. Each can better
manage its home affairs for itself, as is done by
each several State of the Ame<iean Union.
The second resolution recommends local gov
ernments for the Northwest and Hudson's Ray
Territories and the third is devoted to urging
The establishment Of a gensral confederation Of
the Provinces Of New Bry~-i.yick, Nova Scotia,
Newfoundland, Prince Edwards island, with
Canada and the Western Territories, as calcu-
lated among other things to - add TO their ma
fional power al consideration.
These topics are regarded with interest in Can
ada, and well they may be. The chain Of prov
inces stretching across the continent, and en-
bracing nearly half of North America, Is a mas
cent empire which the world must ere long take
notice Of.

The siamese Twins Nowhere.

a correspondent Of the Louisville Jour
nal, writing from Henderson, KY, gives the
following account Of ''lusus nature" in
that place, that surpasses all the freaks of
that occasionally whimsical lady, Dame Ma
ture, that we ever heard of:
have just returned from visit to ono OF
the most extraordinary curiosities ever
known in the history OF the human race
A negro women, belonging to Mr.. Samuel
Sites, of this place, gave birth, eight days
ago, to four living children, Joined together
by pairs in still more peculiar manner than
the Siamese Twins. The two boys are con-
nected at the shoulder, and from the hip t
the knee joint, leaving the lower joint o
the legs and the feet of each perfectly free
The girls are joined at the shoulder, will
this difference from the boys, that they have
but one arm issuing from the Junction Q
their shoulders. They are joined from tn
hip down to the foot-the two legs ending
in one foot.
In regard to the color Of the children. Ma
ture seems to lave been quite as eccentri
as in their formation, one OF the boys bein
black and the other us white as the child Z
white woman; and SO with the girls
They all seem to be perfectly healthy, an
the mother is doing uncommonly well.

.g Col. Forney, of the Philadelphia
Press, TO put an end to the ISLANDERS of the
Lecompton presses, that his opposition to
the adm Illustration was caused by the refusal
Of Mr.. Buchanan to make him member OF
his cabinet, or to give him some other i'm
portant post, boldly declares, "explicitly aud
briefly, and once for all, that tho editor OF
THE Press rds nerer candidate before
President buchanan for any office ~hdterer;
and that the movement to place him in the
Cabinet was entirely in the hands of others,
and was made not OILY without his co-ope-
ration, but in the face of his declaration to
the President himself, that lie was not an
aspirant for any such position, or for any
Office, high or low. On the contrary, some
Of the most important positions were tender
ed to the editor of the Press by the Presi-
dent-positions doubtless far above our am
bltion or our deserts-and were respectfully
and repeatedly declined. For the truth oil
this statement he can refer these ready SLAM
derers to no higher authority than Mr.. Blu.
chanan himself"
The common slender applied by the Lc
compton Press to every independent Demo
crat that opposes the Kansas swindle, is
"that he is sore headn-a disappointe,
office seeker.

The Crescent City Bank.


We call attention to the advertisement
of the Crescent City Bank, in which the
directors offer to pay interest on time
deposits. They do not specify any min
imum sum. and will, we presume, open
accounts with small depositors, and sup
ply in this way, the great want, which
exists here, of a savings bank. There is
large amount Of money in the hands OF
laboring men, now useless, which, if it
could be collected into the Golfers Of a
savings bank, would increase the busi-
ness facilities Of the community. We
hope the offer will attract the attention
Of persons having small sums in their pos
session for which they have no imme-
date use. The habit Of saving is very
much improved by the practice Of depos
its the surplus earnings. The character
Of the directors Of the Bank is guar
antee Of its safety. There has been al
idle rumor afloat, that The Bank sus
tanned considerable loss by the failur
of Willard Carpenter. We are assured
that the Bank has not lost dollar b,

The latest accounts from Utah arc by
the way Of California, and embrace dates
from Salt Lake City to February 9Th. On
the 10th of January Brigham Young issued
an order that the people should have boxes
made to contain $50 pounds of grain each,,
which they were to bring to the elders of the
church, who would "cache' or hide them in
the mountains. A regiment of q thousand
men were ordered to be ready on the 18th OF
February, to operate in cutting off the sup
plies expected for Col. Johnson's force.
Forty wagons loaded with supplies had
reached Col. Johnson's command from Fort
Laramie. The Army was in good health
had plenty Of provisions and good tents, and
was engaged in rebuilding Fort Bridger.
The authorities of Salt Lake City are re-
presented as being incliscd still for war;
Measures are being concerted for defeating
the United States troops, or, at all events
keeping them outside the city till the crops
are gathered and secured.

CAyApA.-Canada has just adopted De-
cimal Currency. The new coins have been
prepared at the English mint, and the first
consignment is daily expected to arrive
The silver coinage consists of five, ten, and
twenty cent pieces. Cents have also been
struck. AS yet no quarters have been coin
cd; but the convenience attending their use
will soon add them to the list. This change
will be an accommodation, not only in Can
ada, but also in our frontier States, between
whose inhabitants and the Canadians large
and increasing business intercourse exists
An independent currency of their own will
be an important step in its influences towards
political Independence. The progress of the
Canadians in population and wealth is I'M
equaled except by the Western portions OF
the United States. A Legislative union OF
all the North British provinces, under gen.
eral constitution, would make them ga pow
er" on the American Continent, and embrac-
ing-as they soon will-the vast territory OF
the HudsonlBay Company, they will soon be-
come important rivals or integral portions Of
eur Union. Our destiny and theirs is closely
allied. There is growing sympathy be-
tween the people Of the provinces and the
United States, which intercourse and trade i:
fostering and which common currency will
help to promote.

A MELANCHOLY SUICIDE occurred last
week, few miles South of Chicago, In
the f.mily ola farmer. Some years ago,
a very beautiful young girl-prompted
by some unrevealed motive-stole sum
of money from her father in England,
and came to this country alone. -Four
years ago she went as "help" into the
family Of Mr.. Cottrell. They soon be-
came so much pleased with her beauty,
her frsnkness, and many excellent points
OF character, that he adopted her as a
daughter. She lived happily with them,
and during that time Joined the Metho.
dist church.
Of late Mr.. Cottrell has noticed that
she was melancholy, often talked OF
her home, and wished to so there. Mr..
G. kindly offered to furnish her money,
but she did not dare to go, although her
own father had written to her, having
discovered her whereabouts, Offering to
forgive her If she would return. lleI
melancholy continued to increase, and
within few weeks she threatened tc
hang herself. Mr.. G. talked with her
and tried to reason such gloomy notions
away, but in vain. On Sunday nigh
she left the house unknown to the fam
lily, but was soon missed and wher
searched for, was found suspended to I
beam in an unfinished barn. She is rep
resented to have been eminently hand
some, and universally beloved by thos'
who knew her, for her amiable qualities
These are phases Of life more sombr
than were ever drawn ill the pages Of fic
ton.

Late Discoveries i'm Pathology show that very
many OF the diseases which aifct mankind arise from
impurity of the blood. This has long been suspected
but is only lately known. In consaption tubercles
are found to be sedimcntary deposit from the blood.
Dropsy Gout, Cancer Ulcers and Erupons, all arise
in disoriered deposits from the blood. Bilious dis
eases and fevers are caused solely by its deanged
healthy sta.e and the decline of life olows the
want vitality in the blood. In view Of these facts
