Losses Of Territory by Spain.

At one time the Spanish Empire occupied
the eighth part of the known world compri-
sing a space of 800,000,000 square miles, with
population of 70,000,000. OF this vast ter
ritory more than two thirds have been lost
In 1865 Spain gave up the isle of Malta to the
order of st. j ohm. In 1920 the Lower Ma
varre and Bearne were yielded to France, and
in 1649 the Russelton. In 1640 Spain lost
Portugal and her colonies. In 1648 she rec
ognized the sovereignty of the Netherlands
In 1926 the English wrested the Barbados
from her, in 1855 Jamaica in 1904 Gibralter,
in 1718 the Luccas, in 1867 Trinidad. In the
seventeenth century, France took possession of
Martinico, New Granada, Gaudaloupe, and the
half of the isle of San Domingo, and in 1900
Louisiana. In the 18th century, Spain yielded
up Sardinia to the Duke of Savoy, and to Mo
rocco her rights on Mazelquiver and Oran.-
She ceded Parma, Placintin and Lucca, with
other dominons in the North of Italy, to Prin-
ces of the house of Bourbon, and in 1850 Ma
piles and Sicily were emancipated from Span
ish government. In 1919 she sold Florida to
the United States; in 1921 she lost half of the
isle of San Domingo; and before 1925 all her
vast possessions on theAmerican continent were
lost to her forever. Her only foreign posses
sions now are the isles of Cuba and Puerto
Rico, the Philippines and small African colo

Coal Oil in Coshocton.

The Progressive Age says that great excite
ment exists in Coshocton county, with regard
to the manufacturing of coal oil and that many
persons are going into the business. The best
camel coal Of the State is to be found there,
and the people are determined to develop their
resource in that way. Five companies on one
FIRM turn out 1000 gallons day; another man.
uGactures $500 gallons; another 1900; anoth-
er ,5O0-in all, II 900 gallons day. These
works will all be in operation in less than three
months
The profits of the manufacture of this oil are
enormous. Ten cents per gallon will it is said
cover all the expenses of manufacturing it, and
it finds ready sale all over the country, at 4C
cents per gallon, leaving the nice little profit o.
80 cents per gallon.
These mines, it is considered by competent
Judges, contain the best coal in the country
yielding, as it does, so gallons of superior ligh
oil to the ton.
1t will require about 500 men-coopers
miners, teamsters, retort tenders, &c.--to rul
these works. May we hope those of our citi
zens who are idle and want work, will there finC
it?
Arrangements have been made to ship larg
amounts of the coal to Newark, New Phila
delphia, and Steubenville, to supply the retort
now in operation at those places.
The capital already invested, exclusive c
lands, amounts to $4,000.

DEVOTION HEnPs 1NTzxIncT.

All knowledge relates more or less directly to
the character and works of God. All the sciences
aredevelopments of his attributes. Astronomy,
mathematics, natural and mental philosophy,
&C., are but SO many ways in which the laws of
God Is great empire are made knwn to The
child at school learning the simplest combina-
ton of numbers, and the philosopher who scars
to the sublimest height of science, are alike
.conversant with the works of God. The intel
lect of the one may be to the other half a
dozen rays to the full beams of the sun; but yet,
it is what God is, or what God has done, that
occupies the attention of both.
Now, as it is Gcd S works that occupy the in
teiIectuaI powers, so it is most reasonable to
suppose that those who come to the study OF
these works, or, in other words, engage in any
intellectual pursuits, if they bring right state
of heart towards God will enjoy peculiar ad-
vantages for success The mind being in
happy harmony with Him will move with
vigor and power A cheering sense of his favor
viii animate it. Each intellectual attainment
is new discovery of being chosen already as
the hearts supreme good; it is the perception OF
some new and lovely feature in the face of a
friend; Blessed are the pure in heart, for they
shall see God

Money versus Husbands

A correspondent of a Worchester paper re-
lates the following incident:
Just as the train was about starting for
Greenfield on Friday morning, on the Vermont
and Massachusetts, Railroad, a sprightly
little woman with child took seat in the
car near where 1 was sitting. The cars were
beginniog to move, and the little woman look
ed anxiously through the end window of the
rear car for her missing husband, who was in
the depot attending to the purchase of tickets,
sc. The speed of the cars increased, and the
woman looked more anxious. The husband
now appears, and commences to run. He
gains on the cars at first, but they are too far
ahead of him, and soon are leaving him behind,
although he did run well for a season." 1t is
now the wife's turn to try what she can do. In
agony she inplores the conductor that her hus-
band is left, but he can't help that. Il am
starting on a journey, and can't get along with
out my husband "'Then let him attend to his
business next time," was the cold answer
"But,' says the keen Yankee woman, "I have
no money with me-" The brakes were applied
and the cars brought to a stand still, and ii,
painting husband enters the cars, to tie deligh
of all the passengers especially his wife. Nor
| al-Money will stop train of cars mucl
quicker tnan husbands.

ssHo,e ;s the balm of Iif

Hope is the balm of life 1t sustains in
the dark hour of adversity-it gives new life to

the future may yet be bright and cloudless.

with unretiring energy-the present is dark and

ardurous task to perform? Though We may fail

our journey through life we meet with trials

the Revolution We live by hope and desire
we see by glad light, and breathe the sweet all

1T rs BEST TO GET MARRIED.

Mr.. Farr, a statistician, connected with the
Registrar-General Office in London, has re-
Gently read paper, which was afterward prin-
ted in the Daily News, on 1.-THE Influence of
Marriage the mortality of the French Peo-
pie" He says: "A remarkable series of OBJ
servations, extending over the whole of France,
enables us to determine for the first time the
effect of the eonjugal condition on the life of q
large population. The result confirms the
common opinion of the evil consequences of
marriage in many cases under the age of 20,
before the growth of the individual man or
woman is completed" The married from 20
to 60 have a lower death rate than the unmar-
ried. Among the widowed higher mortality
prevails than among the married
DR.. Farr sums up-"This is the general re
suit. Marriage is a healthy state. The single
individual is more likely to be wrecked on his
voyage than the lives joined together in natri-
mony." To the question "Is any part of
the excessive mortality of the single in France
referable to vice ?' DR.. Fairs answer is de
cided. ''Yes; to vice and its attendant irregu-
larities,' which he tells us, induce s.half the
sickness, and indirectly, some OF the mortality
of the army, which in this respect fairly repre-
sented the unmarried population"

Romantic Murder in Spain.

A Strange affair is related in the Gazette des
Trtbeaur: "a nobleman of Fuendalajou,
Province of Saragossa, was four days ago with
his two daughters, taking a ride on horse back
on the road to Borja, followed by three servants
young man fashionably dressed but with his face
covered with mask, galloped up, and without
saying a word, fired from double.barreled pis-
tol two shots at the elder of the young ladies
after which he continued his route and disap-
peared. The young lady being mortally wound
ed, fell from her saddle and expired. On ex-
animation, it appeared that she had been struck
by two balls, one of which had penetrated the
heart the other near the shoulder-blade. 1t is
not doubted that the assassin was a rejected
suitor of the lady, but as she had refused more
than one applicant for her hand, it not know

CHURCH ETIQUETTE.

We think there is good sense in a suggestion
made by an American who thus writes from
London:
''In the churches whoever comes first, whetn-
er gentleman or lady, takes the further seat in
the Slip and those that follow fll up the remain
ing seats, and thus prevent the awkard disturb
ance which occurs in our churches here, in the
process of filing out and in by men, in order tc
Isolate women at the further end of the pew
1t is said the habit so universal among us, orig
mated with the early settlers, who sat near the
doors of the pews, so that in case of an at
tack by the Indians, they might be ready fol
action. In many instances this marching ou
and in, like parcel ofsoldiers, is perfect nui
sance, and the custom might well be changed.

WASHINGTON, April IA, ls59.-The greatest
sensation of the day was the production of the
lock, which was fitted by two keys found in
the pocket of Mr. Key after his decease, and
which were in Court. When the ocksmith tes-
tilted that ho took the lock off the door of the
assignation- house hired by Key, and was en-
ployed to do so by the brother-in-law of Key,
Hon. Mr.. Pendleton, the effect was indescri-
bable. So damaging was this to the prosecu-
ton, that Carlisle rose, amid profound silence,
and stated that he had no knowledge of the
transaction. 1t is strange that this lock was
discovered in the attic room of some house
in Washington, where it had been sold by the
locksmth.
The defense have succeeded in proving-First,
that Key was in the habit of making signals to
Mrs. Sickles for two months and upward.
Second, that he carried about him keys Of the
house, that it is alleged, he and Mrs. Sickle,
visited. 1t remains to prove that Key and
Mrs.Sickles frequented the house candestinely
and this will be sufficient legal evidence to sat
isfy the jury of adultery. If the jury are con
vinced of this, the acquittal of Sickles 10 Ger

The THIRD CITy.--Cincinnatian must cease
their crowings if the St. Louis Democrat speaks
truly. No longer is Cincinnati the great GEN.
ter of Western trade and manufactures--it is
already eclipsed by st. Louis. If, however,
she must retain the appellation of Queen City
of the West, which her loving sons have given
her, St. Louis is henceforth to be regarded as
the King of Understanding alone in all his
majesty without city at his back to back him.
The Democrat says: "St. Louis is, in fact,
the third city in North America, prospectively
speaking. We yield the palm to none but New
York and San Francisco-the one on the At
antic and the other on the Pacific. St. Louis
will ever be the great CENTER or, in other words,
the commercial heart of America" There is
one drawback, however, as the Democrat con-
fesass: "There is not a singletkty in the world
as large as St. Louis, which has no towns back
of it, except st. Louis. Now, for men to imag-
inc that our city, numbering now nearly two
hundred thousand inhabitants, will 60 on i'm
proving year after year, and that there will be
no towns of importance in the interior, is, to
say the least of it, perfectly preposterous. The
history of every other city in the world proves
it to be so." Right, old friend, it is not good
for you to be alone.

PRICE ONE CENT.
Mrs. Sickles' COnfessiOn-HOwi IL Was
Made and How It was Published.
New YORK, April 16, 1859.
To tho Editor of the New York Times.

10 Jno EullOI OF Ine new 1Ork lllnob
In justice to an unfortunate woman, allow
me to state that the confession of Mrs. Sickles,
apparently written with cool and almost
heartess deliberation, was indeed the result of
a long and severe effort at self control. She
bad previously made three several attempts at
its composition, and failed through the rio-
lence of her emotions. Only by resolute
nerving of herself to the task was she finally
successful. Written, too, for her husbands
sake, and with truthful spirit of repentance,
she thought of no one and nothing else but her
own guilt, which she was willing to put in the
darkest hues. Like Adam, she might have
said, az was tempted, and therefore did eat"
But she chose to be her own accuser, and thus
make no attempt TO palliate her own guilt by
throwing it upon the author of her ruin. These
are facts, and they place her in an attitude Of
truthful heroism which may claim for her
some kind consideration.
The publication of thet confession has filed
Mr.. Sickles' heart with the most poignant grief.
Repeatedly he refused urgent solicitations for
q copy of it. While the counsel were pleading
for it Us evidence, it was laid on the table, and
there copied surreptitiously, without the know-
edge of the defense or their client. Mr.. S.
heard soon after that it was being reported to
New York, and sent word to tho telegraph
Office for its suppression; but it was too late
Thus the public will exonerate him from an np-
parent unkindness to his wife, whom he has
thus far treated with unparalleled tenderness.
CHARITY.
rive publish the above because it comes to
us from gentleman of the highest character,

stances of which he writes.--ED. TINES.

A CHALLENoE.-Mr. Hall Colby, of New
York, does not believe that the sun is 5,OO0,-
900 miles distant from this world of ours.
He now challenges the scientific world to prove,
by any mechanical or mathematical mensura-
ton, or law of angles and of planes, that the
SUMS distance from the earth is one-fourth part
Of the 95 900 900 miles claimed in the common
astronomical theories. He adds, there is an
other error whichha been taught in relation to
the earth's motions to the sun, namely the
maximum angle of the poles of the earth to
the plane of the eeliptic through the year.
This error is so palpable that it would seem it
could not stand without correction for a single
year in any college or school where boys reason
on the common laws of trigonometry.
