In looking through Webster's dictionary, u
few days since, We run against tho following
item Of local interest
"NEGus, a liquor made OF wine, water,
sugar, nutmeg and lemon Juice; go called,
it il said, from its first maker, Colonel Ne.
gus"
Now we should like to know whether this
has anything to do with our friend and fell
low townsman, @. Negus Was he named
after this liquor, or the liquor after him p
MIR. Webster has left this point obscure. 1t
may be fairly inferred from the obscurity
thrown around this fact, that the author
committep a blunder in writing "Colonel."
1t may be that having seen u. Negus, he
thought all C.'s in that connection were
abreviations of "Colonel.o IL this were
the case, we are satisfied that Mr. Webster
committed an error; for we do well know
that it is not every &C." before Negus that
means "Colonel.n However this may be,
the liquor is strange oompound-water,
wine, nutmeg and lemon juice. We cannot
understand why Mr.. Webster chose to put
lemon Juice in closest proximity to the term
Negus, in bis definition. Why could he not
just as well have put ''sugar" in that place,
and ''lemon juice somewhere else ? We
hope he did not intend to be PERSONAL

esT'i am sorry to say that Italian wives
are not very happy. Their husbands rarely
trust or honor them; they treat them like
children, and are as jealous as Turks. An
Italian wife rarely knows the price Of any
thing, not even Of meat or vegetables, for it
is the man who buys, even in the middle class.
A Roman wife told me that when she mar
ried, she could not have Eve baioceh without
her husbands knowledge. lie was kind and
fond of her, but mistrustfal and jealous. In
Sorrento, and in all the south, it is still a
rule that peasant women. though taught how
to read, mnst not kndA how to write; the
