These bulls or indulgences of the Pope were
printed on one side of a small sheet; several
bales of them were taken ina Spanish ship,
captured by an English cruiser and sent into
Boston. Fleet, the publisher of the Post, pur-
chased avery large quantity, at n very low
price, and printed various editions of ballads on
the back of them. One side of the sheet was
blank, and the paper very good; one bull an.

BEoADcLoTn TIE ENEMY OF HEALTu.-Profes.
SCR Hamilton, in an able address on hygiene to
the graduates of the Buffalo Medical College,
denounces broadcloth as an enemy to exercise
and therefore to health. His remarks are point
ed and sensible. He says:
American gentlemen have adopted as ma
tional costume, broadcloth-a thin, tight fitting
black suit of broadcloth. To foreigners, we
seem always to be in mourning, we travel in
black, we write i'll black, and we work in black.
The priest, the lawyer, the doctor, the literary
man, the mechanic, and even the day laborcr,
choose always the same unvarying, monotonous
black broadcloth; style and material which
mover ought to have been adopted out Of the
drawing room or the pulpit; because it is fee
BILE and expensive fabric; because it is at the
North no suitable protection against the cold
nor is it indeed any more suitable at the South.
1t is too thin to be warm in the winter and too
black to be cool in the summer; but especially
do VIC object to it because the wearer is always
soiling it by exposure. Young gentlemen will
not play ball, or pitch quoits, or wrestlc and
tumble, or any other similar thing, lest their
hroadcloth should be offended They will not
go out into the storm, because the broadcloth
will lose its lustre il rain falls upon it, they will
not run because they have no confidence in the
strength of the broadcloth; they dare not mount
horse, or leap n fence, because broadcloth, as
everybody knows, is so faithless. See these
young men, and these older men, merchants,
mechanics, and ALL learn to walk, talk and
think sobery and carefully; they seldom ven.
ture even to laugh to the full extent of their
sides.

Hmm n,va.h,as4A..,...,

On any evening may be found at the resi-
dences of Senator Douglas Democrats of all
shades, as we'll every class offence men. On
Friday evening last was quite large gathering
there of politicians of all stripes, by special
Invitation. Prominent among the guests were
Senator Iyel son of Georgia, AIR. Browne, editor
of The Constitution Qhe Government organ
Mr.. Coom's, editor of The Republic and many
other leading Southern and Northern party
men. There was much private and confidential
conversation between Mr.. Douglas and the rep
resentatiyes of5the different factions there as
sembled
Mr.. Douglas appeared to take all by surprise
by the strong and decided opinions he express
sed in the conversation. He said that the
whole Slavery question was momentous one,
and must be fought, and fought now to the end,
and the question whether himself or any other
man. was toibe- nominated for or elected to the
Presidency, sank into insigni6cance in compar-
isonswith the great issue He was very ,vehes
ment In his denuncations, and ridiculed the
idea entertained by many of his Democratic
friends, that by the decision in the bred Scott
case Slavery existed in or went into the Terrific
discriminating that no such decision had been
made; or if made, could have no binding force;
that such an idea was ridiculous in the cx-
IRENE; he wondered that any were found so fool
lsh as to harbor such thought. He commended
that Slavery could not get into tho Territory
except by special local enactment after Terri
torlal Government had been duly formed and
that Slavery did not and could not exist in the
Territories, until then; that all persons who go
into a Territory before an act has been pas sed
for the establishment of Territorial Govern
ment are interopers and tresspassers, and have
none of the rights OF "ctizens of the several
States" and can claim no protection nor obtain
redress for grievances of the general Govern
ment; and hence they can have no legal protec.
ton or claim for any slaves they may take with
them.

TnE Harrisburg Telegraph, Of yesterday,

TnE Harrisburg Telegraph, of yesterday,
gives nm incident that happened during the stay
of President Buchanan at Bedford Springs
Therswas sojourning there beautiful Pennsyl-
vania woman, remarkable for her singing pow
ers, andwho has, on all occasions, almost, been
requested to entertain company in that way
One evening" when Mr.. Buchanan and his cour-
tiers had assembled in the parlor of the hotel, a
call was made for the lady in question, which
she modestly, but firmly declined. The Presi-
dent, supposing that his influence would be all
powerful with her, went to her,
Urgently insisted again that she should COM
ply with his request, adding that the company
were much disappointed at her refusal. She
then turned to him, and deliberately and en-
phatically said: "Their disappointment was
not to be compared to that experienced by the
people in consequence Of the acts of some of
those in the highest government positions"
Now, in all due Difference 10 the Telegraph,
which applauds the refusal and the remark of
the lady in question to the President, we think
that it was very unlady likc-not to say abso-
lutely rude and lew. No American lady ever
yet had cause to offer such an insult, OF rebuke,
if you please, to the Chief Magistrate of her
country. Such a remark would probably be
patriotic and commendable in an Italian lady at
Florence ball, to an Austrian captain, or even
the Emperor, but,in this country it was as alb
surd us it was impertinent.
