The famous Sickles case seems to have bro ken up the great deep of lechcry. and a flood o equally obscene but less tragic occurrences has 'el uged the land The very latest affair is that of d wealthy merchant down town, who found deficit of $lO coo in the account of one of his clerks He called the defaulter to account, and told him that if the money was not at returned he would ar rest and expose him. The clerk mildly informed his employer that he reckoned he should not re- turn the cash, and that he further concluded that he fad sufficient offset.

The New York Post tells good story of the trial of Jas. Glass for shooting Richard Owens through the heart The lawyers questioned a physician as to whether or not such and such bruises, received in such and such manner, upon such and such parts of the body, would be likely to cause death, till court and jury were weary. Judge Gould took up the examination as follows:
 Judge. You have now, Doctor, answered the counsel what might have killed Owens Will you tell me what did kill him ?'
 Doctor-"Ihe bullet, sir"

 Doctor" Not the least, sir.''

BY ALBERT sro DDARD. 5 His harp ie unstrung on the willows; .. His soul has ascended to God! T He has safely passed over ffe's pillows,
 And now rests in heavenly abode! The pen and the harp are now resting Iheir words and their music are hushed! And friends are their sorrows attesting.
 Not in words-but in hearts deeply curushed. His spirit here, filled with devotion
 To the Creator, the world and his race His pen fired with kindly emotion,
 Was used with effect and with grace! PoEsY mourns his transition, Fol his was the bright path of song :s=---s= Now, he trcads the fair fields of elysian
 Why weep that our brother has gone? HIsToRY grieves that his labors are ended,
 ART mohfns that his efforts are Der; Our sorrows with gladness are blended,
 The record he left was all pure! He has passed from our midst. but his nmbcrs Will enliven the hearts saddest thrill! While the grave claims humanity's slumbers,
 His memory is green with us still Though the wheel was broke at the cistern,
 And death loosed life's silver cord Though the golden bowl failed at the fountain
 His spirit now rests with the Lord! Iowa, July, 1859.

In his Grafton delivered on the Fourth of July in Elwood, Kansas, the Hon. F. P. Stanton argued that while Slavery was a providentiai phenomenon in mans history, and had been of great use and advantage in this country as well as elsewhere, it must in due time disappear from American society as it has disappeared from among other nations. The necessary condition of the passage from barbarism to civilization, it must go out of ex-
 stcnce when the necessity for it is over. Then it becomes an obstacle instead of an auxiliary to progress, and cannot be preserved without evil consequence. The difficulties connected with its removal, will, he maintained, be obvi- atcd and smootlfed away hy the peculiar po- litical constitution of the American people. which leaves the subject to the independent decision of the people of each State, and thus Missouri, South Carolina, and the other States can act upon it each for herself As for the re-opening of the African slave-trade, MT. Stanton docs not believe that the people of the South can ever hesitate "bctwccn that policy which would fill our country with white men, or that which would people it with can nibal Africans" With regard to the dispn- ted question in the Territories, he contends for leaving it there as elsewhere to be settled by the people " even if t..is be not matter of absolute right" he urges, " it is a small con cession to be made for the sake of peace and harmony. Especially. it is insignificant. in view of the great historical facts showing the gradual tendency of Slavery to go South, and 6nally disappear forever" Mir. Stanton con cluded his oration by expressing, in eloquent language, his sympathy with the cause of 1tal- ian independence.

HoL1owAY's OINTMENT AND PILLs.-For injuries resulting from fre steam. or hot water, Holloway s Ointment is indeed a healing balm It not only re- lieyes the pain and inflammation. but prevents the superficial sores from deepening and extending No steam or railroad train should ever start with out supply of this great external remedy. Cuts, bruises fractures, burns, discoaions, etc., are all equally within the field of its curative influence, and
 there is no variety of eruptive ulcerous disease which it is- incapable of controlling. In nineteen out of twenty of the fatal "camphene cases record ed by the press this peerless connter-rritant would have saved the victim. The Pills equally po- tent in internal disorders.

thority that the enterprise of editing Mir. Cheate works has been undertaken by his owa family, fer the benefit of the estate, and that complete col lection of his various literary productions will be published at as early date possible in connee- tion with biography.

THE REvENGEs OF NAPOLEON uI.-An editorial signed "C." and we suppose from Caleb Cushing, in the Boston Traveller, concludes:
 |" Napoleon, by the actual aid of Great Britain. has balanced the Russian success of Moscow by the 1eduction of Seyastopol. He has, with the passive countenance of Great Britain, balanced the Austri- occupation of Paris by the victory of Solferino The debt to Prussia remains to be paid off ; but above all that to Great Britain. Trafalgar and Wa terioo are memories of rage and shame in the hearts of all Frenuhmen, and especially of all Bonapartcs And if in this respect the turn of Great Britain is to come she will only have herself to thank, for the present powerful and proud position of Louis Napo- leon, is her work quite as much that of his own genius. Certain we may be, that of this great dra- ma of the Second Empire, the Fourth and Fifth and greatest of its acts are yet to come.'
