Emperor Is, at present, extraordinary. The

Of clothing, ratiOns, &C., the same as in case of

of Lieut. j. Nugen, U. s. Quartermaster at Stcl.

United States officers is unexplained. The papers
show that they, or some Of them at least, should

We are rejoiced to see feeling so generally
prevalent, in favor of liberal donations from the
proceeds of the Back Bay Lands, for such pur-
poses of Literature and Art as shall rebound to
the honor of the State as well as promote its
substantial interests. The New Bedford Mer-
curry very properly remarks:
We can't expect the Back Bay to go on fur
nishing land forever for such purposes, and the
State will sell it outrapdly enough, unless the
people now demonstrate that they want bit
of this land to convert into valuable purposes
for themselves. In what other way can we
better defend our ancient laws snd customs
against the barbarians of the South and West,
against the slave-trade, Lynch.law, poygamy,
and official plumber, than by the establishment
of public collections in art, science, and litera-
ture. Our new brethren of the States need
our example and they will follow it. They
have gone along in our steps in the common
school and other improvements. The time
has come for US to do something for adults as
well as to help little boys to better cipherng
and spelling. We call on the Legislature like
good citizens to be generous and come to the
aid of the people.

PERSONAL.

Hon. j. Ten Eyck, the newly elected Uni
ted States Senator from New Jersey, is a sound
Republican, and will be an honor to his State
not less as a man than as Republican. He
is about forty-five years of age, and is a lawyer
of Mount Holly, Burlington county. He ranks
so high as a lawyer that Gov. Newell lately
rendered him place upon the supreme bench,
which he declined, although strongly pressed
to accept. Peter d. Vroom, the Democratic
candidate against Mr.. Ten Eyck, has filled
many positions of honor, among them the gov
ernorship and the United States mission to
Prussia under Mr.. Pierce.
Mike Walsh and Dan Sicl1les were once for
midable rivals for the favor of the New York
democracy, and it is odd enough that the for

ADLER and better man of the two. and but for
his eccentric habits might have won honora-

BRISTOL COUNTY.

The Agricultural Society of this county held
their semi-annual meeting at Taunton on the
18th, when the committee on location reported
that they had contracted for about sixty acres
of land, known as the "Sproat Estate" one
mile West of the railroad station in Taunton
A special meeting is to be called to act further
on the subject.
An Irishman in the House of Correction at
New Bedford refused to work on est. Patrick S
