TgE Ono HORSE Tanner IN FRANCE
The Partisan correspondent of the N. Y.
Times says:
Mr.. Rarey, the Ohio horse-tomer is now
the lion of Paris. His performances in the
Emperor's stables are still more wonderful,
(and, you will agree with me, much more
useful,1 than those of the American medium,
Hume, in his Msjesty's par.ors. After Mr..
r arey's first performances on untamed and
unruly horses in the Imperial stables, the
Emperor appointed Il COMMITTEE. consisting
Of Gen. Dumas, Baron &c Pierres, Equerry
to the Empress, MIR. Mackenzie-G rieves, aud
the Count O. Aguado. to examine the sub
ject and make a report. 1t is expected tha t
the Emperor will Mr.. Rarey sui
fciently to allow his process to be made pub
lished in France, or at least to allow the
privilege to be bought for u small sum. The
statement Of the English papers that Rarey's
system is the same as that of the Irishm an
Sullivan in the early part of this century,
u system which was nothing mere nor less
than u breathing into the most rils of the
horse-is publicly contradictedby Mr.. Rarey
himself.

BREAK1Na UP CoNoR Rss.-One Of
the threats frequently INDUCED In
here by Southern members of Con-
gress is, that if one. thing is d~one,orthe
other thing left undone, they will
leave their seats and go home. Ii
was in allusion to this threat that Mr..
Smith Of Tennessee, said in the House
Feb. %:
81 tell gentlemen on all sides Of
this House, that, if the day shall ever
come.when thisUnion shall be dissolv-
ed, it must not be done by me, not by
Congress, but by the act of the States
whose servants We are. If that time
shall ever come-which Heaven for
bid!-I shall be the last man TO leave
my post upon the floor Of. the House
of Representatives. IL the time shall
come-which | do not look for-that
any portion of the Representatives
from the North or the South
shall deem il proper to leave this Hall,
| say, for one, that shall consider it
my highest duty to remain here, until
recalled by the people of my State,
and prevent those who are here from
doing harm 10 the country"
Its evident enough, that Mr., Smith
does not mean 10 make himself Tidic-
fulovs, whatever others may do.
If all the Southern members should
90 off. a quorum would still remain
in each branch, and the Government
would remain entirely undisturbed-
Not a mar Of them viii leave, how
ever, under any circumstances. If
they do, all that Will happen will be,
that their constituents will send bet
Ter men here. There is not a Stats
in which disunion, the moment it
shows itself openly, it will not be
crushed by an overwhelming major
iorily of the people. We had fair

COARSE EPirRETs.-The Pennsylvania
eeithets, with reference to the disgraceful
scene which recently occurred in the United
States Senate, between Messrs. Cameron
and Green, in which the latter called the
former a %'siiaF,' justly remarks:
ssThis language would disgrace the low
est groggery in the country, and yet we find
it employed by the highest deiiberative body
in the nation. Is not this lamentable?-
Should not the Senate, as a duty to itself,
take up the subject, and pass proper resolu-
lions of rebuke upon the offending members!
But it is no: at all likely that anything will be
done. Scenes OF a discreditable nature have
become SO common in the two Houses OF

The Speech OF SENATOR WADE.-
We have received only the telegraph
ic report of the speech OF Hon. B. F.
Wade on the Kansas question. The
correspondent of the Tribune says:
Senator Wade's Speech yesterday
produced a sensation by turning the
tables on those charging aggression
upon the North. He cited examples
the annexation Of TEXTS, the fugi-
tive slave law, the repealo the Mis-
souri, compromise, aud the hast move
ment for forcing Lecompton OIL a re-
luctant people-wherein the South
had assaiied and impaired the rights
of the North. His whole speech was
outspoken and forcible. He march
ed squareIy up to the enemy and con-
fronted him resolutely on every point.
He said hal Ohio had taken her
ground and could not be driven
from it by menace, persuasion or
treachery.

with a grand flourish IN extraordinary in

valued at $50, 600, but having grossly

that city and conveyed the estate to the

negro women, whom be took back with him

CENTRAL LUNATIc AsYLUM.-We took
occasion, during a visit to Columbus last
week, TO pass through this institution and
take a survey of the grounds, for the first
time since it has been under the control of
our esteemed friend and former fellow citi-

fort that pervaded every department of the
interior--and still more SO on an inspection
of The numerous, substantial and highly ad-
vantageous improvements in the grounds and
external appointments. The well known
mechanical genius of DR.. H. has enabled
him to SO dispose of a very large supply OF
water, furnished by a we'll of inexhaustible
capacity, in such a way as to add immensely
to the physical comfort Of all connected
with the institution, patients included, by
furnishing every part of the building with an
abundant. supply, affording almost certain pro-
lection against serious loss by fire; economi-
zing labor; and also adding much to the beau
ty and attractiveness of the grounds. His
| superior taste has also caused the rickety ole

There seems to be a serious difficulty ex-
isting between Gen. J. H. LANE, and acting
Governor DENVER, of Kansas. The Legis-
lature of the Territory during its recent ses-
sion, passed a bill organizing the militia, and
elected LAM Major General, in pursuance
OF which election he proceeded to enroll
and organize those subject to military duty.
This action Denver denounced in violen,
terms through a proclamation, declaring the
action of Lane to be Unauthorized, his orders
not to be obeyed, &c. To this proclama-
ton Lane replies in a card extremely denun-
ciatory in It's language, and as they are both
fighting men, a personal collision may be
the result. The telegraph reports:

terizes his acts as perfidous and tyrannical,
and brands him as a calumniator, p~erjurer
and tyrant, and the fit uppointee of the oil
garchial Administration which disgraces the
nation,
