HUMANITY IN WFE.-One really pities
the poor carver of favorite dish. Not only
has he all the trouble, but he is Obliged to
send all the best bits TO bis friends. What an
angel of wife has our acquaintance Smith
He helps her, of course, as is lady's due,
namely, TO the very choicest morsels; and
when all the other people at the table
are served (not before,) that great mind
ed woman has the pluck to say, with a
well-teigned mpatience:-"Dear, dear, Mr..
Smith, you have sent me woodcock Tor orto-
Ian, or phoenix, or whatever it I'D when you
know l never touch it-a husband never con-
descends TO remember bis wife's tastes" To
which Smith has the meekness TO reply
well, well, my love, beg your pardon, !
really quite forgot. Send it round to me, dear;
send il round 20 me-" And be gets the best
of them all. We have seen this ieat at Smiths
twenty times. Let us hope that he remem-
bers bis confederate when it is the time 10
make presents.

e4 The Philadelphia Bulletin says that the
serious attention of Queen VICTORIA was first
drawn to the scarlet petticoats of the Scotch
girls, by observing the degree to which they
absorbed her ALBEIT as "srt Studies" Conse-
quently the Queen had one of the petticoats
brought to her and put it on, whereupon AL
bert put up his quizzing G ass and admired the
effect. Hence the fashion. The Bulletin closes
brilliant article concerning the new style of
feminine indispensable, with this paragraph:
In Bavaria the peasant women wear petit
coat which is yellow inside and red without,
consisting of one hundred folds Ike those of a
fan, resembling strange flower reversed. The
red pettcoat also reminds one of beautiful
tulip upside down, OF which the wearer's shoe
tips are the pistils. "Oh!" as Bayle st John
says of the Pyramids, "indeed they are very
lovelyl" All right hurry them up! We have
wanted something new ever since crinolne has
been overdone, and now we've got it. So hur-
rah for the Scarlet Petlicoat, aud rice ie jupon

the President should declare Utah in state oil

1t is thought that this movement, and espaciali~

Adyices Just received by this Government from
Mexico represent the condition OF that country as
terrible, and formal overtures have beep made 10

cred extravagant, anu will probably prevent any
action on the subj ct at present.

A DEVOTED WIFE.-A correspondent of the
Boston Post related the followingin referring
to the recent accidental death Of Col.
Wynkoop:
With his wife, who is an invalid, he was
visiting the interior of Pennsylvania for recrea-
ton and change of scene. The country is wild
there and sparsely settled. One morning he
went out with his servant to shoot game for
his wife. In handing him the gun the servant
by accident discharged it; the contents took
effect in bis leg, severed the artery, and be
lived but a few minutes. An absurd supersti-
ton prevails among the ignorant inhabitants
of the region against touching a dead body
before an inquest has set upon it. The servant
had been sent at once for aid to some distance,
end in vain did Mrs. Wynkoop endeavor to
induce, by supplications, by promises, by ffers
of money, the stultified neighbors to shelter
and care for her husbands body. 1t was night.
He still lay where he fell, and there, in that
bowling wilderness, with the clammy damp
ness of midnight gathering on her garments,
did that delicate woman, frail as the wild
flowers aronnd her that folded their petals to-
gether in that weird solitude, sit alone on the
chill turf, supporting on her knee the head of
her husband, and there remained, keeping her
lonely vigil until the breaking of the gray
dawn, alone with her dead husband and with
her bleeding heart.

solved at meeting yesterday of the Presidents OF

whilst this step will restore the character of the

Whatever may be the result. the Banks will con-

Tho REPRESENTATIONS.

The National Era in article touching the con-
dition of the Bauxs, &C., remarks:
Prices, generally, We have doubt, have touch
ed bottom. Real estate and produce are as low ss
they will believer, we think. Panic, as well
necessity, compelled a contraction of the currency.
The panic is disappearing. and the necessity abat
ing-money boarded is reappearng. That there

indefinite period, essarily keeping up if not
ryng up prices, is certainly true. California and

CE- The Mendoza Press states that the Illinois
Central Railroad have been setting a snow fence
from Galena to La Sale. The portion of the road
from Duuleith to the former point does not require
that protection owing to the nature of the surface
The fence has been set for seventy miles, on
an average about ten boards high, and will cost
when completed in the coming summer about one
hundred and thirty Thousand dollars. The posts
are OF oak very heavy, set three feet In the gronnd
and the boards put with regard to perma-
nency. 1t is believed that the fence will stand
for forty years.

sanity of the Hon. Thos. Slidell, Ex-Judge of the
Supreme Court of this State. 1t seems that
upon hearing of the financial crisis that had
taken place here. and fearing the effect it
would lave upon certain stocks in which he
had large interest, he became completely 10
sane. This is but one instance OF the effect
upon the minds of men, produced by the late
crisis, and it is more than probable that many
Others have similarly suffered. An incident
of the kind has taken place here recently. A
member Of large house, by an unfortunate
investment in cotton, has, it is supposed, lost
his senses, and sor the past few days he has
been missing and no one knows his wherea-
bouts, and great fears are entertained for his
safety.

The Richmond Inquirer says that on the goth
the Richmond statue of Washington was com
plely unlocked, and the statue, in its original
canvas-coveriBg was safely elevated to frame
work on the upper circular pedestals. The
tall masts being moved nearer to the monu-
ment, the statue will, doubtless, be promptly
aud securely raised to its place on the summit
of the monument.
