JOHN B. GoUaH.-The friends of this dis
tinguished advocate OF temperance will be
glad TO learn Of his success in the old coun
try. The crowds that flock to his lectures
are beyond all precedent He has spoken
many times in Exeter Hall, and that great au-
dience room is full to overAuwing whenever
he lectures. Mr.. Cough has the confidence
OF the temperance community as a man and
Christian, as well as an advocate Of temper
ance. We alluded some time since to con-
troversy in Great Britain among the temper
ance men, relating to the efficiency of the
Maine Law in this country, based upon the
statements of Mr.. Cough. to the effect that
the law was dead letter up to certain time.
We stated at the time that he was correct in
his view OF the matter, and have seen no rea-
son to change our opinion. This controversy
was quite exciting in Manchester and other
parts of England, owing to the strong efforts
that are making to secure the enactment Of n
prohibitiye law. We notice that the London
Times speaks in the highest terms Of Mr..
Cough as an advocate of temperance.
Inquiries are often made for a temperance
paper in Massachusetts,. 1t NAV not be
known that there is now published a paper
devoted to this cause, which meets with the
appreciation Of temperance men generally, al
though it is not the organ of any committee
or society. 1t is called the temperance Hfs.t
or. The publication office is at 81 Washing
ton street. 1t is judiciously conducted and
is undoubtedly doing much good.-Boston

Judge Ingersoll remarked that he was salts

ing. lie received the verdict as though it was
entirely anticipated by him. Mrs. ruekerman
was not present. The government has the
most satisfactory evidence that she has been
stranger to the course of crime pursued by
her husband
Tuckerman had the assurance of his conn.
sci that if he would plead guilty at the com
mencement, an arrangement would he made
by which the terms of Justice would be great
ly moderated. His usele course has COST tho
U. 5. government about tive thousand dollars
and he will be fortunate if Judge Ingersoll
gives him less than fifteen years imprison-
nent. Postage stamps to the value Of $500.
hVe hundred foreign letters and 500 in coun.
terieIt money, were found in possession of
Iuckerman after his arrest. large number
OF the letters Tor foreign countries were from
New Orleans. The Havana mail due at Port
land on the 2lst of November, was burnt by
Tucker
Tuckerman kept in memorandum book
sums Ct money taken from the mails at diff
Ierent times, aid credited himself with the
discounts on the bills thus taken. In the

bags from the New York ferry boats. Ofthe
thirteen mail-bngs lost on the route, neither

AN ORIGINAL CLocK.-A curious electric
clock has been invented by Mr.. Balm, 1.-THE in
ventor of telegraph which conveys commu-
nications to any distance by the discoloration
OF saturated paper by eleetricity.J There is
no visible power that actuates if. but in a
garden or other piece of ground is dug hole
tour or hve deep, and into this hole is thrown
a layer of coke, then a layer of earth and
then few zinc plates. A feeble but con-
slant galyanlc current is generated by the
contact of the earth with the coke below it.
and the zinc above it, without the aid of anv
other battery and this current is conveyed
IN doors by copper wires The wires form
coil round a magnet, and the electro. magnet
TINS formed is made to constitute the hob of
the pendulum OF the clock, and by machin-
cry the electric apparatus gives vibratorv
motion to the pendulum, and the pendulum
in Its turn gives motion to the two Lands of

and the neighbors summoned to look for the
missing child, who is about twenty-one

The MOZART CoNoERr.-A crowded house
greeted the "Mozarts," at their second concert of
the season, on Thursday evening. The pro.
gramme certainly presented great variety of at
fractions, both vocal-and instrumental and al =.
though too extensive for one evenings entertain
ment seemed to satisfy the large and enthusiast
tic audience, for whose various tastes it was gen.
erously provided
The choruses Of the Society were, as usual, very
successfully performed, comprising selections
from 'Haydn's "Creaton," compositions 10y their
talented conductor, Mr. Hamilton, and a variety
oipteces illustrating the peculiar psalmody of our
ancestors The solos were very creditably sus.
tanned By Mrs Field, Mrs Allen, and Miss Whit
ing, and BY Messrs Hamilton, Stocking, Sum.
ner, and Whiting, either in connection with the
choruses or in songs and Duets of various mer-
it. Where so much was excellent, it would be an
invidous task to compare and crilicise the sever
al solo performances, and we would rather COM
mend all diligent and deserving efforts to improve
home talent, in that particular direction.
Several pieces for the String Band were inter-
speised through the programme, and fine duet
OF kUcken's was played by Messrs Arbuckle and
Patz-the former also giving us the famous sad
elalde' Of Beethoven, as a cornet solo.
Dl The accompaniments upon the piano and organ
harmonium, were by the Messrs Allen. The
latter instrument, from the mandatory of Mr.
WILCOX. was we'll tested in this, as in the former
concert, as very superior reed organ, rejecting
much credit upon its builder
The public entertainments of the evening hav-
ing concluded with the singing Of "Old North
field, in primitive style, the "Mozarts" repaired
to the adjoining rooms in the Mechanics Hall
building where bountiful table was set for those
inclined thereto, and this was in turn succeeded
by an agreeable hour or two of social festivities
May this, their eighth anniversary, be in due
time followed by as successful a concert and fes-
tival, another year. B.
