oUT-oF-DooR EXERCISE.

There is probably not another people to be
found, that take so little exercise out of doors,
as those living in cities and large towns Of the
Northern States. This in door confinement is
the direct occasion Of two great evils impair
ed health and destruction of vivacity. To
be beautiful and cheerful, much time must be
passed in the sunlight, where oxygen may be
inhaled without stint. Stay in the house, shop,
store, Office, study, sanctum, or other confne-
ment, where carbonic acid gas and other impu-
rites are hrcathcd and breathed again and
again. and it would be very extraordinary il
such persons always maintained cheerful spirits
and enjoyed good health
Among the Germans in fatherland, land it
may be true of them here.) theit constant
cheerfulness and gayety would be a marvel to
our sad, grumbling people, out of temper, be-
cause out of health, and out of spirits. Early
in the morning, from four o'clock until ten in
the evening the tboroughfares in and about
the cities in Germany are thronged with lads
and asses, vending their way to the public
gardens and other places of resort, where so
cial pleasures are freely enjoyed, and the heart
made glad and the health and vigor of the
body improved and preserved.
When the men and women have finished
their work. or business, they, too, go forth fol
amusement And what is worthy of note, the
ladies are not afraid of being Drowned by the
suns rays and the health giving breezes.-

Operations Of a Gipsey Fortune Teller
IA southerner swindled out of $1,000.

Z During the early part of the present year, a
tafi respectable appearing woman, known as
Elizabeth Trail, GiIds Waters alias the . Clip
sey Queen, Travelled over several of the South
ern States, telling fortunes and making herself
generallys useful In her peregrinations she
fell in with Mr.. Heze1iah Farjs, planter of
Winchester, Tenn; and finally persuaded him,
as he alleges, that an immense treasure
was buried on his plantation, and that
she would if he followed her directions obtain
it for him. Faris Was all alive to the glorious
prospect, and by direction of the woman, pro-
cured $4,000 in gold, and deposited it i'll
strong chest, of which she was to retain the
key for twelve days after which tins she would
return to his house, open the chest, and in it
would be found q paper showing the precise
spot where the treasure was buried After
the money was deposited in the chest. the for
tune teller kneelud beside it, and offered up a
prayer that the adventure might prove success
ful, and while thus engaged, silly removed the
god from the chest, and placed bag OF lead
in its place. She then left promising 10 re-
turn at the end OF twelve days. but failing to
do SO, the planter took the liberty Gf opening
the chest and soon found out how he lad been
swindled. Search was made for the gipsey
and reward Of 81 900 offered for her appre-
hension. Recently the planter learned that
she was living at Bellevillc, \. j.. and his son
came to this city, and procuring the services
of Serg't Dickson, of the detective force, pro-
ceded to Belleville where they found tie lady.
She had been indicted by tie Grand jury of
Tennessee. and a requisition from the Cover
nor of that state upon the Governor of New
jersey had been issued. On her arrest yester-
day, she was brought 10 this city, and is now

BEAUTIFUL FIGURE.

Rev. Mr.. Barnes, in his sermon on Life
at Three Score" illustrates the magnitude of
eternal things as he approaches the end of life,
compared with those which ordinarily occupy
the attention of mankind, by the following
beautiful figure: ..1.. .....
The earth, as it moves in its orbit from year
to year, maintains its distance of ninty five
millions Of miles from the sun; and the sun
except when seen through hazy atmosphere,
ut its rising or its setting, seems at all times
to be Of the same magnitude-to human view
an object always small, as compared with our
world. But suppose the earth should leave its
orbit and make its way in a direct line towards
the sun. How soon would the sun seem to en-
large its dimensions. How vast and bright
would it become How soon would it fill the
whole field of vision, and all on the earth dwin-
die to nothing So human life now appears
to me. In earlier years eternity appeared dis
tant and small in Importance. But at the pc
riod Of life which have now reached in seems
to me as if the earth had left the orbit of its
annual movements, and was making a rapid
and direct fight to the sun. The objects of
eternity, to which | am moving, rapidly en-
large themselves They have become over
poweringly bright and grand. They fill the
whole ield of vision, and The earth, while all
which is the common object of human ambi-
ton and pursuit is vanishing away!

MANLINESS.

The purpose of life is to form a manly char
acter, to get the best development of body and
of spirit-of mind, conscience heart SOUL
This is the end all else is the means. Accor-
dinghy, that is not the most successful life in
which man gets the most pleasure, the most
money or ease, the most power or place, honor
or fame; but that which man gets the most
manhood, performs the greatest amount of hu-
man duty, enjoys the greatest amount of hu-
man right, and acquires the greatest amount
of manly character. 1t is of no Importance
whether he win this by wearing hod upon his
shoulders, or crown upon his head. 1t is the
character, and not the crown, I value The
crown perishes with the head that wore if, but
the character lives with the immortal man who
achieved it and it is of no consequence wheth-
er that Immortal man goes up to God from a
throne or from gallows.-THEoDoRE PAR

Awful shipreek at Australia.

A fine steamer, the Admella, of about six
hundred tons, and three hundred horse power
running between Adelaide and RIelbouine.
was wrecked on the 9th August by striking on
a reef thirty miles to the west of the nlagilla-
ry line separating Victoria from South Aus
tralia. The details are the most frightful of
any shipreck that ever occurred on the Aus
tralia coast. The sacrifice of life, althoue b
large, upwards Of fifty persons having been
lost is not the most horrible part of the ca
tastrophe. The sutfarings of the unfortunate
survivors exceeded anything described in the
history Of suffering and disaster at sea. For
seven days they We're on the wreck during five
of which they were without food of any de-
scription. The ship struck at haIEpast four in
the morning. In less than ten minutes after
the appalling shock the ship parted in three
pieces. About forty people continued to cling
to the bow portion for nearly two days, when
they were nearly all washed off and lost with
the exception of about fifteen, who were
brought to the after part Of the vessel by
means of a rope. Some very narrowing scenes
of separation among the families of the fore
cabin passengers occurred at this time. All
the provisions that were saved in the first in
stance was one filter full of water a small bag
of almonds, about twenty pounds of cheese,
half ham, ten pounds of beef eight bottles OF
porter, and one bottle of whisky, but a por-
ton of these was afterwards washed away
The surf dashed over them night and day, yet
all appeared composed and collected. The
chief mate (James Hutchinson.) in describing
the scene, says each night carried off It's vic
tims-about twenty died Tuesday night from
cold-it was bitter night deaths were SO fre-
quent as to lose all terrors to the survivors
who looked callously on. Captain Harrison
of the Waitemata did all that man could
do, diving for provisions; he suffered SO much
from the exertion that he died from exhaustion
on board, He relates other acts of hereisnl
and self denial which to an extent relieve the
pain of the melancholy narrative.

The Hero of Harper's Ferry.

James Buchanan, if we believe his organ,
has won immortal renown, by his conduct in
the great battle of Harper's Ferry. True,
pressing engagements prevented his leaving the
Capitol, OF approaching within unsafe distance
of the scene of action, but mastery was his
generalship, prompt and energetic his meas
ures. brilliantly triumphant his success Great
be his glorv, and great the honor of the nation
of which he is the head on account of these
results, of what the Constitution felicitously
calls "tlie actual exhibition of Repubcansm
in its overt acts at Harper's Ferry" We
cannot do better than to keep on copying
from the same eloquent and exalted source:
" The heart Of The peopie is sound. There
is one universal voice of congratulation that
at the head of the National Government there
is such a man as James Buchanan wise in
council, deliberate in Judgment prompt in ex-
ecution, and who, looking to the interests, the
opinions, and feelings of every part of this
great Republic, acts for the permanent honor
security, and happiness of all"

oenteetea Seats.

The Republican candidate for Representa-
tive in Congress from Oregon, Mr. Logan, has
given notice to Mr. Stout, who has received the
certificate of election. (having nominal ma
iority of sixteen,) that the seat will be contest
ed. The friends of Logan claim to have infor-
nation sufficient to make out strong case in
his favor.
Mr. Ryan, who proposed to contest the seat
of Mr.. Florence, for The First District of
Pennsylvania. has decided to withdraw, aud
leave the latter in undisturbod possession. The
Philadelphia Press intinlates that this step is
the result of a compromise toi what nature is not
particularly stated between the two gentle
men more immediately Interested. The strong
probability, however, is that Mr. Ryan was
unable to find conclusive testimony to estab-
ish his claim.
There is some prospect that the seats of
Messls. Scott aud Burch, Of California, will
be contested by the two ant-Lccompton men
who were elected last year, with the view Of
testing the validity of tue law under which the
late election was held. The State has never
been districted according tolaw, and there are
other technical Irregularities aiiording grounds
for a contest.
There are severa! other eases Of contest,
with which the pubic is familiar Among
these are the claims of Blair in the St. Louis
District, Howard in Detroit, Williamson
against Sickles) in one Of the New York
Districts, and of Andersen in the Fourth Dis

question to Capt. Simms, although there

BEAUTIFUL EXTRACT.

Men seldom think of the great event of
death until the shadows fall across their own
path, hiding forever from their eyes the traces
of loved ones whose living smile was the sun
light of their existence. Death is the great
antagonist of life and the cold thought Of the
tomb is the skeleton of all feasts. We do not
want to go through the dark valley, although
its passage may lead to paridise; and, with
Charles, Lamb, we do not want to lie down in
the muddy grave, even with kings aud princes
for our bed fellows. But the fat of nature is
inexorable. There is no appeal or relief from
the great law which dooms us to dust We
flourish and we fade as the leaves of the forest
and the flower that blossoms and withers in a
day, has not q Trailer hold upon life than the
mightiest monarch that ever shook the earth
with his footsteps. Generations of men appear
and vanish as the grass, and the countless null
titude that throng the world to-day will to
morrow disappear as the footstepsin the sane
on the sea shore"
