Az UNEXPECTED Observation-Disclosures IL REAL
LrFE.-On the 23d ultimo passenger came to
Portland, by the steamer Anglo-Saxon, and took
lodgings at one of the city hotels. Next NOR
ming he took the cars for this city in company
with gentleman who had remained at the
same house with him over night, with whose
countenance he, some how other, imagined
himself familiar. They got into conversation
in coming down the eastern railroad, but moth
ing transpired to elicit the fact whether or not
they had been old acquaintance. When they
arrived at the depot and had attended to their
luggage one of the gentlemen, inquired in the
hearing of the other, for cab to take him to a
certain street in Charlestown. The other said
he purposed going to the same street, and the
two engaged the same conveyance. On arriv-
ing at the street in question, it appeared that
they both designed to call upon the same indi-
viduaL This strange series of condolences
greatly troubled both but their mutual surprise
and delight can be imagined but in degree,
when they found they were brothers, and that
they had thus singularly met at the house of
third brother One of them has been in the SER
vice of the Pacha of Egypt for twenty years:
the other had spent sixteen years in the East
Indies, while the third has been in this country
during nineteen years past. The brothers are
natives Of Scotland, and have not seen each other
for twenty-four years.-Boston Ledger, March 8.

ANOTHER DREADFUL CALAMITY.

Another sorrow has fallen upon Salerno. No
sooner had the panic occasioned by the earth
quake begun to cease than the population are
again alarmed by another sad event. The tooth
of st. Matthew the Bishop one of the precious
relics of the Church, has been stolen 1t dis
appeared during the agitation consequent on
the late disaster, and this incident is only
another proof of that moral disorder which is
often perceptibe in times of great social distress
The Bishop has ordered the accommodation
OF the sinner, but to no effect professions with
torches have been made, all equally useless :
the precious relic, which has saved Salerno
Rom so many mlsfortunes, is not to be found.

THE EARTHQArAKE AT NAPLES.

A letter dated the 10th says: ait is nearly
certain about 10000 victims is the result of the
earthquake. In Basilicata hundreds have per-
ished from hunger and by lockjaw Two other
Shocks rather severe ones, happened in Gala
bria, and one near St Germano, announced bv
rumoling noises, but causing no damage. The
Pope has given 5000 ducats for the unfortunates
of the earthquake and the club of the horse
races, at the head of which is the Conte d.
Aquila, gave the sum of 1000 ducats that was
to have been spent for the next spring meeting.
The sum subscribed by the English here is about
$1,000. After much discussion, it was settled
that DR.. Strange and two other English gentle
men (residentsl should go to distribute the
money themselves, instead of giving it into the
hands of Government"

CONDITION OF THE TREAsuRy-It has been
favorite theme with the opposition press and
partisans, that the late Legislature was reck-
lessly extravagant in its drafts upon the public
Treasury. The cry has been constantly made
that the expenditure of the funds would leave
the Treasury empty by the time of adjournment
These charges, made in ignorance or malice,
are sufficiently refuted by the fact that, at the
close of business yesterday, after paying off the
last dollar of the expenses incurred by the Le-
gislature, there was in the Treasury nearly
S400,000-a sum not excelled if equaled by
any other State in the Union. The liabilities of
the State are paid in cash on presentation or
maturity-a fact not claimed, we believe, for
any other State. Altogether, the financial af-
fairs of the commonwealth are in healthy,
prosperous. and highly satisfactory condition.
THE NICK OF TIME.-As the late Earl Fitz-
hardlnges rent-roll is supposed to have been
ABOUT t4o,o0o year, nice point, it is re-
marked, may arise on the question of the precise e
hour OF his death, which is announced as hay-
ing taken place about midnight between the
10th and lth ultimo. His rents were PAYABLE
at old time that is, Old Lady-day and Old
Mchalmas- day. Old Michelmas- day fell this
year on Sunday, the 18th ultimo, and the day
begins at midnight. Now, the rent is due upon
the first moment of the day it becomes due, so
that at one second beyond twelve o'clock of the
10th ultimo, rent payable at Old Mich@lmas-
day is in law due. If the earl died before twelve.
the rents belong to the parties taking the estate,
but, if after twelve, then they belong to, and
form part Of his personal estate, so that the
difference of one minute might involve u ques-
ton as TO the title of about f20, ,000-a nice
question for lawyers.-Gndrdian
A BENGAL PRIScE.-A correspondent of the
New York Commercial Advertiser says he has
Just returned from a visit to the palaces and
grounds of the Rajah of of Bushwan. This estate
OF this petty prince, fne-looking fellow, 80
years old, gives an annual income of about S4,-

OPPosrTtoS MAJoRITY rs PExxsY1yA.
MA.-The Philadelphia North American
says
The aggregate Opposition majority on
Congressman is much greater than on Su-
preme Judge. Some Counties are VEGA
tiously slow coming in, but taking the
actual majority in the first nineteen dis
tricts, calling Montgomery's district bal
anced, and taking the vote for Judge in
the two Pittsburg districts, with Stewards
and three OF. four single Counties in other
parts of the West. we have a clear ma
jority against the Administration of ST.
500. Including Montgomery's, ami that
for other Anti-Lecomptou Depocrats, the
total majority thrown in the face of the
free trade and Lecompton policy at WASH
ington, will come very near to 10000.
The President and his partisans know
what such majority in this State means,
and we doubt not it will be understood in
Congress and elsewhere.
