upon the fair Elgenie, who was fain 10 pause

steps by which the dock was reached from
the Imperial barge and her Majesty grew
even paer than usual before she reached the
top of the ladder, and was obliged to stop for
few seconds The Due de Malakoff, who
followed close behind, was of signal service
in securing the crinone which prevented
the Empress's dress from being blown to the
four quarters of the compass by the unman

Of his great anxiety and its beautiful results
The two soldierly camp.kettle hands of the
marshal were taxed to the utmost by the re-
bellious spirit displayed by the crinoline and
their owner joined in the hearty laugh to
which his unwonted perpexity gave rise.

A TERRIBLE VIsITATIoN.-The following
graphic account of the plague in the Barbary
States, taken from the London Times, will be
read with painful interest;
For many years past the States of Barbarv
have been free from the visitation of the
plague, and when it was first reported about
three months ago, that several deaths had oc-
CURED in the district of Bengazi, attended bv
symptoms similar to those of the plague, peo.
pie were unwilling to believe that it could be
that fearful malady, and they were confirmed
III this disbelief by the opinion of the medi-
cal officers of the Santa de Bengazi, who de
clared it to be the typhus, and not an cpl
demic. The disease first broke out among an
Arab tribe, about six hours distant from Ben
gazi, and a report of the dreadful ravages it
was making reached that city on the 25th of
last April
The British Vice Consul, Mr.. Grove, being
convinced by all he heard of the nature and
rapid progress of the disease, that it was ac-
tuslly the plague, strongly urged the Bey,
the Governor of the province, to take meas
ures for the preservation of the public health,
recommending that military Gordon should
be placed at proper distance from the city
to prevent communication with the infected
MOhammedan fatalism or natural Incidence,
wsuld do nothing.
The fatal conduct of his neglect of the Vice
COnsurs suggestion, soon appeared. The dis
ease soon found its way into the unguarded
city, and its first victims were the women
and children of the poor. But it soon spread
with fearful rapidity, attacking with fatal
virulenee rich and poor alike Entire fami-
lies perished miserably. Then ensued gen
eral panic, and of a population of 5000 souls,
more than half abandoned their homes and
fled TO the desert
OF those that remained forty or fifty died
daily, sometimes more Night and day the
bodies of the dead were cast hastily into their
shallow graves, and the cries of the Moorish
women, the howlings of the Jews, and the
dismal tolling Of the bells of the Catholic
chapel were terrible to hear. At length the
Ottoman Government, in consequence of Con
sui Groves representations sent a steamer
from COnstantinOple with two physicians
who, Immediately after their arrival, declared
the disease to be a plague of the
most virulent type, and in consequence OF
their circulars to that effect, Bangazi and al
the ports of northern Africa have been placed
in strict quarantine.
Mr.. Consul Grove remained at his post dur
ing all these horrors for ten mortal weeks
until he had lost all his servants but one, anC
was SO much affected by the dreadful effluvia
from the neighboring cemetery that his sto-
mach rejected all he ate or drank. Ther
feeling that he could no longer be of any ser
vice, he sailed for TripOli aud, after passing
seventeen days in the lazaretto was wei
coined by his friends as one escaped from
death

SMUT FROM CRACKED WHEAT,-Mr Myers,
of Tehama county, once advanced the idea
that cracked wheat would invariably be
smutty The editor of the Red Bluff Bacon
who has had experiencein farming as well as
editing, says;
We very much doubt whether the fact of
grain being cracked causes it to smut. With
all due Difference to the opinion of Mr.. Myers
who first advanced this idea, we beg leave
to differ with MIN in his deductions Our
experience teacaes to the contrary Last
January and February we sowed one hun,
dred and five acres with as badly cracked
grain as ever we saw come through thrash
ing machine The grain raised was almost
entirely free from smut, probably not twenty
grains, or rather smut balls in quart 1t
must evidently be from some other cause
We think there is great deal in the kind of
seed The seed we used on the piece of
ground above named, we got originally of
Mr.. w. G. Chard, ofTehama A great many
others who used the same seed, agree with
us, that there is much in the kind of seed
used, as theysall say they had little or no
smut this year.

TuE SUFFER- TITLE.-Gen. Sutter publishes
n letter in the Union, in which he states that
he was waited upon, in January last, by a
Committee of Sacramento City and County
Settlers, who desired to obtain from him a
relinouishment of his title to the lands lying
south of the junction of Sacramento and
Feather rivers. He agreed to their PROPOSE
tion upon the terms expressed in the follow
ING portion of his letter;
After rejecting upon the matter conclu-
,led to do SO, provided they would relieve me
N some extent of my great pecuniary wants,

,,referred they should be punished. The
committee agreed to pay me sum which
considered sufficient for the above purpose,
and satisfied me of their ability so to do, and
Of their good faith. therefore gave pow
er of attorney, authorizing my attorney in
Washington to appear for me in the Supreme
Court, and disclaim for me location of any
tcnds that might be granted me south of the
junction of Sacramento and Feather rivers
He then goes on to say that the action of
the Settlers convinces him that, if they ever
intended to fulfil this obligation, they have
long since abandoned the idea, and declares
his intention to take steps to nullify every
thing that has been done towards carrying
out his part of the compact. He deems this
explanation necessary, for the sake of those
friends who may have misnterpretcd his
conduct. As to what others may think he is
Indifferent.

GOING DOWN WITH THE CABLE.-An English
paper relates the following curious incident
in connection with the laying of the Atlantic
Telegraph;
The splice had been made, and the cable
was being lowered over the sterns of the
vessels, when, little before it touched the
water, sea-gull, fatigued, no doubt, after a
long fight, perched on it, and his claws get
ting fast in the tar with which the cable was
coated, he was unable to extricate them, so
that he was dragged down under water and
was drowned, He made desperate efforts to
save himself, but to no purpose, as he stuck
last, and when he found himself going down

waters. The strangeness of the occurrence,
