MONEY BECOMING EAsY.-The financial intelligence
from New York shows that money is becoming quite
easy, in consequence. no doubt, of the prospect Of
continued peace in Europe, and the abundant crops
in the United States. Some produce is going abroad
though at low prices, and the shipment Of gold from
this country to Europe. will be arrested The cot
ton and other manufactures in New England, are
when capital and labor in the Southern States were
in general, more remunerative than now The Pre-
sdent IN his message TO Congress at the opening Of
the session now at hand may have good occasion for
CONTEMPLATING the country upon the unparalleled
degree of prosperity which it enjoys. Peace, health
fitness and abundance are great national blessings
and will concordance of the political evils
which are the subject of so much crOaking.
The Franklin Reris,r, in notice of the recent af

of business or pleasure, come among us and ENJOY
the hospitality which our citizens always extend to
strangers while they secretly melting our slaves
TO rebellion say let the fullest rigor of the law
be visited upon them. In fact the law has no pun

his hate be unfounded; but the sneaking villain who,
under the guise of friendship, and sheltered by the

for the Presdency-the Southern Opposition
necessarily preeluded from taking sides with those
who demand that territories shall be free Upon
that issue there is but one voice in the SOuth-the

are too insignificant to waste thought upon. 1t is
best for Northern men TO understand this now They
must not calculate upon divided South. Upon this
great issue which involves constitutional rights

GENERAL SUMMARY.

Mr.. Lamartine, the elegant French scholar
and imperial beggar, has been presented by
the city of Paris with handsome hyuse and
extensive grounds in the Bois de Boulogne
This was done in consideration of his services
to his country in 1913.
AT the close OF the Paraguay negotiations,
on the night of the 9th of February, the mu-
nicipal authorities of Conception gave ball to
President Urquiza and Commissioner Bowlin,
who opened the dance with the Presidents
lady Upon retiring to his quarters, each
American guest found a bottle of brandy at his
bedside.
1t is estimated that the loss by fires in the
woods of Lynn and Saugus the present spring,
has been not less than $4,000. The owners
of woodlands in those towns propse to have
meeting, on Saturday, at the Central station
in Lynn, to adopt measures to prevent such
destruction of property in the future.
A notice of recent steamboat explosion
ends as follows: "The captain swan ashore
SO did the chambermaid. She was insured for
$4,000, and loaded with iron"
The flood on the Mississippi River is said
to have left everywhere its mark of desolation.
From Memphis down, scores of plantations and
villages are either overffowed or rendered al
most uninhabitable by the mould with which
the surrounding moisture has covered every
dwelling.
The Columbus Gazette, Wing journal in
the days of the Wing party, and latterly occu-
pying an independent position comes out for
the following Presidential ticket in 1860 -
For President, Salmon 7. Chase of Ohio
Vice President, Edward Bates of Missouri
The founder of the Order of Odd Fellow
ship in the United States, now 80 years of age,
at the late national jubilee in New York, gave
sad evidence of his second childhood by pro-
posing this sentiment: "Nlay the enemies of
Odd Fellowship be rammed damned and
jammed into 74-pounder, and blowed out of
the touch-hole."
The friends of John b. Cough in England
recently paid his lawyers bill of f34S in the
libel suit with DIR. Lees, and presented to him
Gl00 besides, as a mark of continued conf
dence and esteem. Mr. Cough declined the
f100, and announced his intention to pay from
his own pocket the expenses Of his antagonist,
DIR. Lees, so as to save him from jail.

IMPORTANT ARREST OF PIcKPocKETs-On
We dnesday last, four light-ingered gentle
men came to this city, and registered them
selves at the City Hotel as from Boston and
Lowell. On that day they pursued their art
with fine success. Mrs. j. H. Rouse of Clapp-
vile had her pocket picked of $50 or more in
front of Chamberlin, Barnard & Co.'s store.
On the circus grounds, Alden Thay er Jr., lost
$50; John w Healy, $40; Geo. C. Taft,
$50; Mr.. Cobb of Winchendon, S45; John
Brooks, Jr., of Princeton $50, and others,
smaller sums. The whole amount of the
pickings and stealings of the thieves on that
day was about $780,
The police were at once put upon their
track, and three of them were arrested Thurs
day. The fourth was arrested Friday morn
ing, in birmingham, by the Marshal They
gave the names Of Miller, Davis, Hogan, and
Simpson. They resorted to various ingenious
devices to escape observation and detection, af
ter they learned that suspicion rested upon
them. On their persons were found about
5000 altogether. Simpson, alias Sampson,
who was arrested in Framingham, had ex-
changed considerable sum of money at the
bank in that town.
They were brought before the Police Court
yesterday, but their case was postponed for
one week, and they were removed to the
House of Correction. While in the Police
Office their statements were contradictory and
their conduct was unaccountably suspicious,
three of them positively refusing to recognize
the fourth, though all of them claimed to be-
long in Philadelphia. They were all supplied
with partial changes of dress. In Simpsons
valise were carefully concealed a pair of silver
salt cellars, the cups Of which were shaped like
scallop shell, and covered with yellow gild-
ing. They were probably the fruits of some
burglary which has not yet been brought to
light

FAMILY HIsToRIEs.-A deep interest seems
to be manifested throughout New England,
we believe, has extended to the other older
States, for the collection of family memorials,
and particularly of genealogies. The Rev. G.
S. Newman of Pawtucket, has collected and
printed those of the Dexter and Padelford
families, and is engaged in collecting and ar
ranging the genealogies of other Rhode Island
families. Mr.. Sylvanus Bliss of Boston has
nearly completed genealogy of the Bliss fam
lily. The Rev. Ashbel Steele has in prepara-
ton one of the Brewster family and there has
just appeared in Albany genealogical history
of John and Geo Steele, who settled in Hartford,
CT, in 1635-36, with notices of other branches
in the United States. The latter work is by
Dan1 Steele Durrie of Wisconsin. But the most
important book on this subject is that upon
which Judge Savage of Boston has been oc-
cupied for the last twenty years; genealogy
of the first settlers of New England, extending
to three generations. This is to be in four
large octave volumes, two of which will be
issued during the present year Mr.. s. G..
S0merby of Boston has devoted his whole
time during the last ten years to genealogical
researches, in the United States and England
and is the collector of many of the family
genealogies which have been published in
New England. This gentleman was in Proyi-
dence few days SINCE hunting up particulars
regarding old families which first settled in
Rhode Island, and in few weeks goes to Lon
don, to pursue his researches. Providence
Journal
Worcester daily spy., 1859-04-30

PRESIDENTIAL HoUSEKEEPING.-A Wash
ington letter says Much has been said of the
large expenses connected with the White
House, and the cost of keeping up the dignity
of the Presidents position. There never was
greater mistake. Mr. Buchanan must save
at least $4,000 year from his salary, as will
be readily seen by comparison with his more
recent predecessors, most of whom retired
with very comfortable provision. Mr.. Tyler
is believed to have carried away $4,000 or
$4,000. Mr. Polk took home a much larger
sum. MIR. Fillmore, who served something
over two years and half, was quite up to the
mark of Mr.. Tyler, and Mr.. Pierce, who lived
more Hospitality and generously than either of
those named, saved about S30'000 All these
Presidents incurred some expense from which
Mr. Buchanan is entirely exempt. The White
House is now heated and lighted entirely at
the public charge. A large kitchen garden is
cultivated, which furnishes all the vegetables
required, and more. A fine green house has
been added, which is found both useful and or
namental. Just before the inauguration of
Mr.. Buchanan, the Private Secretary of the
President was made a salaried office, with
S25O0 per annum, and cerkship attached to
it. The steward, who was previously paid out
of the Presidents private purse, was also sal
aried at $l2O0 year, and messengers were
added, to reduce the outlay for servants. The
only serious cost now incurred is for the Of
fetal dinners during the sessions of Congress,
and it is well known that Mr.. Buchanan has
been prudent beyond all example in this re-
spect His ordinary household consists of
three or four persons and the servants, and
there are fifty gentlemen in the city, who
maintain more style and spend more money,
without any appearance of extravaganza Mr.
Buchanan has always been a careful manager
and now finds plenty of time his market book
amid all the cares of State, and the pressing
demands for office.
