Hon. J. N. t. Richardson.

1 From an article in another column, taken
from the Opcousas Courier. it will be seen that
Judge Richardson is not alone in bis defeat as
a candidate for the State Senate. Detection
and trcachery has brought about The defeat Of
some Of the Lcstregular Democrats in the State,
a circumstance deeply TO he regretted by all
genuine aud faithful Democrats. When such
men as Emile LaSere, Richardson and others
of like calibrc are defeated, we feel like put
ting up feryent prayer that. God would de-
liver lis from the professions Of some who pre-
tend to worship at orr affairs. Tho defeat of
these gentlemen is now the subject of regret

When DR.. Hutton was Bishop Of Durham.

was travelling over CAM Wensleydalc and m
glelol, he suddenly dismountcd and, having
delivered his horse to servant, walked to a
particular place, at some distance from the
highway, where he kneeled down, and continued
some time in prayer. On his return, one of his
attendants took the liberty of inquiring What
was bis masters motive for so singular an act ;
~ answer to which The Bishop Informed him
that. when lie was poor boy, without shoes or
stockings, traversing this cold and bleak mount

disturbed a rcd COW, then lying on that identi
cal place, iii order to warm his. feet and lers

DISTANCE OF ANOTHER STAR AScERTAINED.-
A late number of the 1aronomische Naclrichttn

the purpose of asccrtaing its distance from our

This star is one of the brightest in the, right
shoulder of the constellation of Ophinchus, and
has long been regarded with interest by astron-
omcrs on account of its being one of the first
class binary stars-the smaller revolving around
the larger in about eighty years, and having
nearly completed one revolution since its mo-
ton was first detected The principal star is
of the fourth magnitude. of pale topaz color
