ING The porter was awakened by a tremen-

for me, and to know if anything had
been seen of a certain DR.. Williams, who had
ridden out with an insane man the day be-
fors for the purpose Of taking him to our
insl tuition. and had not been heard of since.
Dn meeting them, i informed them what
had occurred how I had locked up Mr..
Hubbard at DR.. Williams request, who had
taken his leave shortly after, and riddenof
alone They demanded to see the patient,
and at once conducted them to him, eau
tioning them not to venture into his apart
ment too suddenly, as he had proved much
more wild and turbulent than had been led
to. expect. The moment they saw him..
however, they all burst into a hearty laugh
and assured me that Z had actually locked

And So it indeed proved It was the
madman who had come to me and made all
the arrangements for entrapping the doctor.
He had overheard the latter planning with
his 6iiends how best to get him into the Asy-

gacity he had counterplotted and played his

)H being released and made acquainted
with the facts, the worthy doctor laughed as

too glad to escape by any means for he had

he hoped to heaven he never should be "a

that an insane man may, under certain CIR

Mr.. Brown laughed heartily wiped his
red face with his redder handkerchief
candidly acknowledged that, on the point of
insanity, he considered himself vanquished
but Immediately added, by way of defence,
that he thought the doctors case an excep-.

suggestions which we wish to make to the
Tobacco growers Of Virginia and North Car

only make their Tobacco more saleable aud
bring higher price, but would be a great
accommodation to the Manufacturer. -
Briefly they are as follows !: q
LIST, Let the plant be fully ripe before
cutting. i.f
I'd. Take the largest plants for wrappers,
and cure them yellow
3d. Cure the other portion Of The crop.
if possible, ID the sun but If forced BY rain
to house it. cure with the charcoal made Of
oak or hickory mot Of pine. Let the wood
be seasoned inthe spring of the year before.
IF theresis much FIRE or smoke, put il out,
and let the Tobacco take two days and
at night crowd it together ete prevent The
dew from falling TOO much on the Leaf. saf
& All planters who do not understand the
management and curing Of Tobaeco, and are
desirous Of obtaining fine prices for their

Man and w OMAN. Man is the. creature
of interest and ambition. His nature leads
him forth into The struggle and hustle of the
world. Love is but the, bellishmsnt Of
his early life, or a song piped in The inter-
walls of his acts. But a woman whole life
is a history of. the affections. The heart is

for empire; tits there her avarice seeks for

a bankruptcy of the heart

The COUNTY NOMINATIONS AND THE TAX
PAYERs.-The system by which nominations are
made at the conventions of the different p0liti-
cal parties, now being held in the various districts
and wards Of the city, holds out but little hope
to the taxpayers that the right kind of men will
be presented for their suilrages from these
sources at the appro aching election. Bullyism
and rowdyism in the lobby, and packed meetings
of Office holders and their dependents within the
convention. seem to be the instrumentalities at
work all round in efccting the nominations In
this event, the taxpayers will have to scrutinize
the tickets pretty closely, and probably will be
compelled. in selfdefence, to nominate indepen-
dent candidates for many Of the county Offices.
Let them look sharp after the nominees of the
conventions

Brown, OF eissippi, il even more irrocious than
Mr. keitt, f. while the latter pledges himself to
the administt ton, the former intends to max
this Kansas h mbug test Of the fidelity Of the
administrator to Southern rights. The impu-
dence of this threat is really sublime. when we
consider the fact that many of these Southern
disorganizers Drown among them> have lately
gone over to the Northern Douglas movement
against the administrations too, notwith-
standing the course of Douglas in Congress, and
his subsequent course repudiating Lecompton,
the English bill, the English restriction, and all
concerned therein.
This treachery Of our Southern fre-eatlng
all further obligations to them. He has risked
his administration in behalf of Southern rights
under the constitution and the law, and now it
will not do for Southern chevalers to cry
treason when they themselves are the traitors.
Thus their empty threatenings concerning this
English bill will go for nothing. The admins
tration will serve them exactly right in recon-
mending and encouraging the earliest regu-
lar admission of Kansas, regardless of her
population. We place these agitatng and gas
conading Southern fre-eaters upon the same
level with our ranting and canting Northern abo-
ltion dirt-eaters; for the Northern drt-eater is
no! more fanatcal or INSCRIPTIONS in the pur-
suit Of his crazy anti-slavery crotchets than is
the Southern fire-eater upon his fimsy and con-
temptble distractions. The administration has
had to deal with both these disorganising fac
tons. 1t has still to contend against them, and
will only have them both fairly under foot with
the admission of Kansas, regardless of the prohi-
biion which Mr.. Keitt says involves the fearful
contingencies of a Southern confcderacy.
When Southern chivalry has degenerated into
Southern trickery, and Southern good faith into
Southern duplici.y and perfdy, and when the
Southern statesmen Of the last generation have
been superseded in the present by Southern Jug
glers and gambling politicians for the Presidency,
the time has gone by when Southern party lead
crs can dictate either the law to the admins
tration or the policy Of The democratic party. Such
are the consequences which the folly and inso-
lence Of Southern fre-eaters have brought upon
themselves and their section; but we doubt not
that. under the reaction of the good sense Of the
conservative Southern people, the reign of their
shallow pated and staggering disunion dema-
gogues is drawing to an end
