Of the then Administrations:
"AlI the Departments Of the Government a2-
peared tn great advantage IN the personal char

HoRRIBEE CASE or MADNESS IN HoRsE.-
On Sunday evenIng Mr.. Barney went to drive
his horses into the stable, when one, that had
hitherto been very gentle, refused to enter the
stable. After running her about until he was
perfectly exhausted, he concluded to leave her IN
the yard.
About midnight the neighbors were alarmed
by an awful believing and groanIng, ana com
ing to the yard where the mare was confined
found that she had attacked calf in the yard
and had literally stamped it INFO the ground
She had also bitten one or two cows, taking as
much as a pound OF flesh out of one. The men
now succeeded in driving her into the stable,
when she commenced tearing the flesh from her
own foreeg, and stripped it completely OFF to the
pasiern joint, when the owner, having procured
gun, put an end to the creatures misery.
The owner, examined the other horses, but
found no marks OF any biting.-KsOkuk Post,
18th.

LANARrME.-A Paris letter says that Lamar
tines beggary disgusts everybody. He inher-
tied large patrImony; he has always been well
paid by the public for his literary productions;
he did not lose fRrthing by the Revolution; he
he has no children, while his mental powers sre
unimpaired. Why then these continual appeals
to public charity: II his reckle<sness has
brought him into difficulties, he ought q. least
20 have maintained his manly pride. Even now
he might live in honorable poverty: but he pre-
fers the gilded drawing rooms OF Paris 50 much 60

ition he once held, he soIiclss aims, not only in
France but even IN England.

WHAr MAS BECOME OF rive are frequent
ly nccosled with the inquiry-What has become
OF the nrerminable Kansas question:; IL is the
result of the fact that 1t was dead an tn hslls OF
Congress for nearly two months before the close
Of the session, in all which time even the bell
wea,hers of the slavery agitation hardly spoke
the word "Kansns" above their breath, so, also,
has the discussion of Kansas affairs been uban-
doned by four out of every FIVE newspapers
heretofore apparently living, moving, and hav-
ing their being wholly by and through agitatins
it. True some of the opposition papers in New
York-those VIGOROUSLY chemically afflicted
with the abolition understanding to publish
column on column of Kansas letters and dis
matches which few read; none, with the gus;o
(for mares nests) of SIX months ago. Yet the
public interest in the question has evidently run
out entirely. lf the settlement e9scied Under
the English bill consummaies nothing more
than has already been realized from it, its adop-
ton will have proved very GOd-send to the
country.
