THE New York correspondent of the Phil.
adclphia Mrcmy, in a notice of Morphy, the
great chess player, says queer incident oc-
Cured to him soon after his arrival in New
York.
A carriage drove to the St. Nicholas, in
which was seated Il splendidly-dressed lady
She sent up a card, and requested an inter-
view with the chess champion. The inter-
view was granted, when the fair visitor de-
manded the privilege of playinga game with
Mr.. Morphy. Mr.. NJ. looked at the magni-
licent eyes of the stranger, and said "Yes,
certainly" The chess-table was brought tc
the window, and Mr.. Morphy placed the men
The lady. OF course, was permitted the first
move. Half dozen moves were made on
either side, and Morphy found himself inter-
ested-his visitor promised to prove the most
formidable antagonist he had had for long
time. Being absorbed in the game, Morphy
directed the servant to admit no one else un-
ill it was completed. The game lasted two
hours, and was drdrn. The lady was then
satisfied, and bushingly took her leave Nor
ply himself accompanying her to her car
riage. The moment she had gone, Morphy
and his friends set at work to ascertain the
identity of the beautiful visitor, not doubling
that the name upon her card could be found
in the directory. This, however, proved to
be a mistake, and though every endeavor was
was made to ascertain precisely who was the
visitor, the gentlemen are as much in the
dark as ever. Whoever she may be, she
played the best game of chess in which Nor
ply was ever a contestant, and she probably
adopted this means Of matching herself with
Morphy in order to assure herself of her own
skill.

True ELoQUEScE.-The following anec-
dote is told of an individual who listened to
the splendid argGment of Sheridan against
Warren Hastings. At the expiration OF the
first hour he said t, friend: "All this il
mere defamation" when the second was fin
ished, "this is wonderful oratior:' at the
close of the third, ''Nfr. Hastings has acted
very uniustifably; ''at the fourth "Mr. Has
tngs is an atrocious criminal; "and at the last
''of all monsters of iniquity, the most enor-
nous is Warren Hastings"
gSyn Mrs. Partiugton says that just before
the last war with England, circumstances
were seen around the moon nightly, shooting
stars perambulatng the earth, the desk Of the
sun was covered with black spots of ink, and
comets swept the h.rizon with their operate
tails. Everybody said it profiigated war, and
sure enough it did come Its costiveness was
felt throughout the land, but the bravery Of

But out ofall that brilliant brood
Produced by Luna pale,
There was but one poor little chick

In the French translation of Paradise Lost,
I"liail, horrors, hail y is rendered thus: Com
ment uous po1tez uouS, les horreurs, comment
rous portez !' that is, How dye do, horrors,
how dye do?"
A Welsh curate being asked how he man
aged to preach sermons 50 far above his own
powers of composition, replied a have q
volume of sermons by one Archbishop Till
olson, which l translate into Welsh. and af-
forwards re-translate into English, after which
the Archbishop himself would not know his
own compositions.

The French make awful havoc Of John
Bulls English in their attempts at transla-
ton. They seem never to reflect that En-
glsh words have often many and remote
Specifications. Voltaire translated some of
Shakspeares plays. Shakespeare makes one
OF his characters renounce all claim to a doubt

carre for himself fortune with his sword
Voltaire put it in French which re-translated,
reads, "What care for lands? With my

While Eliot was engaged in translating the
Bible into the Indian language, he came to
this passage 1.-The mother of Sisera looked out
at the window, and cried through the lattice, y
etc. Not knowing and Indian word so sig
nifty, latttce, he applied to several Of the ma
tives, and endeavored to described to them
what lattice resembled. He described it as
a framework, netting, wicker, or whatever
else occurred to him as illustrative; when
they gave him a long, barbarous, ard unpro-
nounceable word, as are many OF the words
in their language.
Some years after, when he had learned
the. dialect more perfectly, he is said to have
laughed outright upon finding that the Indi-
ans had given him the true term for ea-pOt-

THE ToMATo.-Dr. Bennett, Professor oi
some celebrity, considers the Tomato an in
valuable article of diet, and ascribes to it very
important medical properties:
/. That the Tomato is one of the most pow
erful aperients of the liver and other organs
where calomel is indicated, it is probably one
of the most effective, and the least harmful
rcmedlafagcnts known to the profession
2. That a chemical extract will be obtain
ed from it, that will supercedo the use Of cal
omel in the cure of disease.
8. That he has successfully treated diar-
rbea with this article alone.
