WASHINGTON IRvING's BURIAL PLACE
Washington Irving's burial place, in the
Mount Pleasant Cemetery, OF Tarrytown, was
designated by himself some four or Eve years
ago. The Irving family had q vault in this
city, in the graveyard that surrounded the
old Brick Church in Beekman-street When
the widening of that street was decided upon
Mr.. Irving secured the large lot in the Tar
rytown Cemetery, and It's cost was officially
allowed to him as the value of the city vault
which had to make way to the demands Of
commerce.
This fact accounts for the peculiarly new
appearance Of tho mortusry slabs in the Itv-
ing lot at Tarrytown. On the removal Of the
remains Of the deceased members Of the family
from the Brick Church vault, Mr.. Irving
caused them to be buried side by side at Tar
rytown, and had uniform grsve-stones erected
at the bead Of each grave, 50 that tho stones
marking the resting place of those members
of the family who died twenty or thirty years
ago appear as new and fresh as that erected
by the grave Of one who died only in 1858
Washington Irving's grave will probably b.
marked In q similar manner, and II any more
pretentious monument be erected TO his
memory, 1t must be placed in another portion
of the lot, and not directly over his last rest.

THR FRENCH EMPREss AT THE CouNGIL OF
MIsIsrERs.--The behavior Of the Emprsss at
the Council Of Ministers is worth observing.
The most abstruse and driest questions are
listened to by her Majesty with the greatest
apparent attention. She always comes armed
with pencil and with paper, and takes down
notes with the prettiest pedantry in the world.
It's true that the fair and snowy hands, as If
rebellious against the thankless Office, are con-
tinuslIy occupied in sliding to and fro the
rings upon her fingers, and in turning and
twisting the bracelets on her wrists, whose
pretty little Chinese jingle formed so funny an
accompaniment to the reading Of the report
upon the Peiho expedition the other day, that
the grave seignors all laughed aloud, and the
Emperor joined good humoredly in tho msrri-
mcnt, and, seising her Majssty's hand, kissed
it rapturously, making the funny little bells
with which the bracelet was hung all around
ring out more joyous peal than ever. ~ h

No, we must distinguish here, and must
say-that, however much we may dislike the
system of slavery, we should look with mex

and upon any man that would open the door
to such inofable miseries. This must be the
prevailing sentiment of the North, and il

public meetings convened for the purpose.

SINGULAR ANRcpoTx OF JOHN BRowE AND TIE
MEsMERIsr.--In one Of our exchanges we nnd,
without authority curious anecdots told in
letter, dated Springfield, Mass, which may
or may not be true;
Some ten or dozen years ago old Brown
was 9 dealer In wool (sheep's) in this place,
and was then noted az an iraseible old cur,
continually growing and swapping at every
thing that did not smell Of Niger or come up
to his standard Of black equality. A certain
itinerant juggler in the mesmerio art chanced
30 visit this place about this time, and gave
exhibitions Of his wonderful skill at Hampden
Hall. Among the exhibitors subjects was q
woman, over whom he seemed 70 hold abso-
Lutte control, as all efforts from the outsiders
proved Intellectual to awaken her when under
the influence Of the mesmeriser. Old Brown
repudiated the doctrines of Mesmer In toto,
and In pretty round terms pronounced the op-
orator and his subject both arrant humbugs,
would prove them such on tho following night,
If allowed to test the matter In his own way.
The mesmeriser, full offaith in his own power,
accepted the challenge, provided Brown would
use no means to awaken the woman that
would prove injurious to her health.
Brown offered to submit himself to the same
test, If the audience were not satisfied. Hamp.
den Hall was greeted with goodly house or
the night Of the trial. The woman was duly
put to sleep, and old Brown, having supplied
himself with quantity of oowhage, mounts
the platform, and sprinkles the lsguminoui
plant over the neck and shoulders Of the fair
sleeper. 1t failed in its effect of awakening
her to consciousness, but no sooner had the
devotee of Mesmer withdrawn his influence
than the most piercing, agonizing shriekt
burst from the woman, as she tore her flesh, in
hor efforts to allay the fiery itching, The au
dience we're indignant, and rushed forward to
fulfil the compact " putting the dealer in
wool to the same ordeal. Old Brown stood al
bay, however, and vowed vengeance upon
the first man that touched him. Regardless Of
threats they seized upon the old sinner, and
gave him most thorough rubbing with the
vile stuff. With the stubborn, mulish will, sc
natural to him, the now famous man, walked
of, declaring that 1t did not effect him; bu
once within the privacy of his own house, h,

more than q match for the strong nerves Of

ARE TURKS OF AFRICAN DnsosxTi--This
question has been decided in the negative by
the Supreme Court of California. About q
year since murder was committed in Stock
ton, for which Jacob Elyes was tried, found
guilty, and sentenced to be hung. An appeal
was taken to the Court of last resort from the
judgment, on the ground that one Martin, a
native Of Turkey, and q Mahometan, was al
lowed to testify against the prisoner. The
error, for such il was claimed to be, was dis
posed of by the Supreme Court affirming the
judgment Of the District Court, and holding
that the statute which precludes negroes and
Indians from testifying either for or against
white persons, does not necessarily depend
upon the indecision Of color, except when the
color is 80 decided as to leave no doubt as to
what race the witness belongs. In this case
tho witness belonged to nation in which the
Caucasian type largely predominated.
