SIR JOHN FRA Kiln.

The opinion is entertained in some quar-
ters both 10 Eugiand and America, that
individuals OF Sir John Franklins party
may still survive. This is the view eN
pressed few DAYS ago By Capt. Parker
Snow twno was second in command OF the
Prince Albert discovery ship, which ell
gagged in the search fer Sir John Frakln
ia the year lS50,) in public lecture De
lvered in Loudun. He stated that It was
his conviction at that time. as recorded by
him IN the Blue Book published in 1850.
that the ships would oe found where they
were lately discovered, and subsequent
developments only served to c,ntirm him
in the belief that some Of the party
were still living, probably in captivity.
among the E>quimaux. This opinion is
supported by the fact, elected through Capt.
McCliutock interpreter. that when the
E.quimaux meet with stangers who can
be of no use to them, they give them food
and desire them 10 60 away; bu, II the
men are mechanics aud useful, AS many of
the Franklin party were. the natives re-
tain them, and will not let them go. The
lecturer is represented as having given n

already mentioned, CLEANED from one Of
McCiatock's men now in England:
Edward, the ship carpenter, was the one
who discovered them, aud, hastily calling
his companions, he proceeded to remove
the snow and Joe. He describes it as the
most awful moment Of his lite. and states
that he could hardly help falling on his
knees and returning thanks to the Al
mighty Father who had guided him thus
successfully on bis search. Caa.rneath
the head of one of the bodies was found
the open prayer book. and il was necessary
to chop away the book from the head, so
hard was il frozen. On the hand Of the
other body was mitten, and on attempt,

should be made to discover the navigators
This feeling is entertained by many intel

fraugh, with many perplexi,ies, England
will scarcely refrain from making one
more effort.

Bungay Oh Cards.

CIV, BUNGAY, Etlitorsof the Central
Independence, at Utica, n. Y, and a
poet Of no mean repute, gets off the fol-
lowing good hits in referance to Cards
and Card playing in railroad cars:
In front of us four men. will dressed
and of middle age, are playing cards. We
have nothing to say, just now, Of the NOR
atty of this kind of amusement; but we
protest against the bad taste displayed by
these gentlemen. 1t is a lovely afternoon
and Nature is beautiful as as bride in
her wedding robes; indeed, the cards she
holds in her hands are guifcent, and
should excite the wonder and admiration
Of these stupid men. She shuffled the
pack last night-Aolding the stars and
moon before us-and this morning the
sun turned up trump; and every time we
look abroad a new card is played for our
qualification. The trees beckon with
their boughs to these men; the river
shouts to them in the liquid Language of
its waves the hills, wrinkled with gorges
made by the recent rains-the tears
which excoriate their cheeks-invie their
notice indeed, the panorama of tho Nc
hawk valley which seems to unwind from
this spool of cars, is lost to them. They
handle spades with which no man can
dig an honest living; they WELD clugs
with which they deserve to be beaten;
they hold hearts that never throb with
emotion; they display diamonds that
never CLEAN with beauty: their jack is
iaekanapes-their ace is fool--their
kings and queens are exceedingly yul-
gar.
If people will play cards, let them do
so in a remote corner, where there IS moth
ing to see them. The pack and the bot
tie are so closely allied, that thoss who
play at the one are likely to take a pull at
the other-aud, finally, stake their souls
for the devil to win.

Byron Paine.

The Wisconsin Patriot, in an article
on Paine, while it violently opposes his
doctrines, pays the following tribute to
bis honesty and consistency:
"Mr. Paine, it is well known, has ever
been consistent and radical abolitionist
he never acted with either of the old
national parties; but with a devotion wor-
thy of q better cause, adhered to that
small faction which for years bore the
contumeIy attaching to unsuccessful effort
against the popular sentiment of the coun-
try. When an abolitionist was regarded
as fanatic and public d;sturber, who
might be pelted with stale eggs, or drawn
through a horse pond with IMMUNITY in
any town Of the North, as well rs the
South, Byron Paine was an abolitionist.
What he was then, heis now; his honesty
of purpose, bis boldness and zeal, cannot
be questioned. Now, as then, he hates
with the whole force of an ardent nature
all alliances, all compromises with sla-

IT is a favorite trick of tle Democracy
to charge Republicans with holding Know
Nothing sentiments, and affiating in pc
litcal action with the members of that
party. No welI-informed man believes
this to be true, but tie Prescott Demo

:sOf the Know Nothing faction and
their principles, our opinion is this-that

buying, rum-guzzling, mad-cat democracy
Of the present day, that Democracy which
the Irish patriot, John Mitchell, say IS has
but one principle, and that principle is
D lblic plunder-we say next to this,
Know Nothing.sm is the most soulless,
the most unjust, the most inhuman of all
political notions which ever found an adj

What! denounce, prescribe, ard in fact
enslave man because he was born Ger
many, Hungary. England or Ireland in
stead of the United States? Such disre-
gard Of right, such usurpation of the hel-

twin sister, counterpart of that sum of
all vllianies-American Slavery. Before
we would knowinglyadd feathers weight
to the influence OF success of the latter, or
its legitimate and natural offspring, the
former Of these ungodly causes, we would
see the United States blown from the
bosom of the earth, its fragments hurled
to the antipodes of the universe, and on
the Northwest point of Wisconsin we
would take our chances"
We would suggest to CHARLEY that
warm weather is coming Cd, and he had
better "cool himself" We are not so
ready to see the United States blown
from the bosom of the earth" Such
" happen- stance" would doubtless greatly
disarrange the intestinal organs of this

pitch printing offices into Cpl" We re-
peat that we prefernot to see it done.

Library law.

The rather too vouminous remarks OF
Mr. DRAPER, will sufficiently explain this
law to our readers. We are gratifed BY
its passage, and know that much credit is
due to Mr.. Draper, in bringing about this
result.
We trust the law may be so amended,
that the books shall be selected by each
town for itself instead of being furnished
to it, without its having any choice. The
State Superintendent might prepare ca
talogue Of publications and send copy
to each town, from which the proper au
thorities could make selection Of what
they wish, and the Superintendent pur-
chase books for the State.
d But a great good is accomplished in the
enactment of the law. 1t will doubtless
receive such notifications as may be he
cessary.

TOO Tre3e.

Henry Ward Beecher well says:
There is many and many rich mans
house where it would not be safe to ask
for the commonest English classics. A
few garish ANIMALS on the table. few
pictorial monstrosities, together with
the stock Of religious books of his "persu-
aston" and that is all n 0 range Of poets,
40 essayists, no selection of historians. no
travels or biographies-no select fctions
or curious legendary Tor |; but then, the
walls have paper on, which cost three
dollars roll, and the floors have carpets
that cost four dollars a yard! Books are
the windows through which the soul looks
out. A house without books is like a
room without windows. No man has q
right to bring up his children without sur
rounding them with books, if he has the
means to buy them 1t is a wrong to his
family. He cheats them! Children
learn to read by being in the presence of
books. The love of knowledge comes,
with reading, and grows upon it. And
the love of knowledge in a young mind.
is almost warrant against the inferior
excitement of passions and vices.
