~ Miss t, known on the turf at Paris aS
the fair Amazon of Washington. was So bril-
liant at the races on her horse. jet black, save
a white star on the forehead, that her appear
ance was hailed everywhere with admiration
and applause. A more lovely person cannot
be imagined; she guides plsyfully the most re-
dOubtable cOurser. Beizebub, the name Of
Miss T. horse. il so untameable and ferocieus
that no rider can mount him, no groom guide
or stall him. He has already killed al Eng
lishman, named Thomas Dixon who undertook
to groom him in the stable. Rarey was pow
erless to tamo this terrible animal. Three
persons only can approach Belzebub, the first
is Miss T. herself. To her Belzebub is IA plant,
gentle and affcctionate a. a King Charles span
iel. He follows her, he fawns on her, and
kneels that she may mount him. He ncighs
when she approaches. He is proud and happy
tO carry her. lie pawns, he caracoles. he cur
vets. he never tries to unseat her. lie obeys
her word without ever exhibiting the least i'm
patience. Miss T. reciprocates all the atfec-
tion which her beautiful horse exhibits, and
loves him US a friend. Tho two other persons
who can approach Belzebub, are two young
ladies' of sixteen and eighteen years, Jenny
and Kitty Wilkinson. But BelZebub only suf-
fers them. and shows them no attachment
Jenny and Kitty act as grOoms to Bel2ebub;
they feed and curry him, and walk him in the
morning. Jenny, the youngest Of these sisters
is not yet developed, is dressed a a groom,
and follows Miss II. every time Miss 7. pays
visits on horseback. for no other person can
hold Belzebub by the bride when his mistres:

girl of the happy age, of fresh. brilliant and

She breathes all the life and FIRE of twenty y-one

demand for the NEW YORK WEEKLY in every

"AZAEL KAHN" is full of episodes aud Incl,

omdh upon The woshingion cor.
respondent of ihc bib P1ny'tmaa, Con
having ,lnrcd 10 speak in commendalory
terms Of the man they all both haze and
fear We publish The following extract
from his letter Of tho 9TH inst, referring
to the speech Of Senate, lioLEH, on thc
Tariff delivered in the Senate a short
time since. This Is q mcritcd compliment
to Senator b. which will bc endorsed by
every man who has listened to his speeches
upon the stump an d elsewhere.
"Alr Toombs, Of Georgia, delivered an
able speech to~day on the subject of re-
renchmcnt and tho tariff, in reply TO Mr.
Biclcr. But, notwithstanding the merted
reputation of that distingu shed Southern
chapion of low duties, it is not probable
that the fair fame of your own worthy
will be impaired by the CON
test lie has taken II manly stand IN Ia
vor of the recommendations of the Presi
dent, and in support of the interests OF
Pennsylvania; aud it may be gratifying
to his numerous friends to know, that, IN
doing so, he has more than sustained his
former eminent position.
As a speaker, Mr. Bigler is second to no
man on the floor. His enunciation is clear
and distinct. Each word that he utters
is heard with case in every part Of the spa
cious galleries of the new Hall. His apS
pearanco is dignfcd and commanding,
and his action graceful. I'm point of elo-
cution alone he is far superior to Mr..
Toombs. Those who have heard him when
addressing vast crowds from the stump.
will remember with what ease to himself
and pleasure to his audience, he could
sustain an argument for hours. 1t has not,
however, PROBABLY occurred to them, that
the man who can hold park full Of peo-
pie on their feet, without wearying either
them or himself, for two hours, must pos
sess at least some Of the elements OF genu
inc oratory. 1t is not, however, "voice
and nothing else" in Bigler's case. His
reasoning is clear and close, His speeches
are characterized by great unity. He new
er wandcrs from his subject, nor involves
himself in contradictions, but pursues his
theme steadily and with heartfelt pur>
pose to the end He is perhaps deficient
in imagination. His argument is seldom
intersrersed with figures Of speech, or with
brilliant illustrations. But without the
aid Of these desirable advantages, he COM
mands attention, and carries conviction to
the minds Of his hearers"

PLEASING VISION PITTsBURGH CONsUM-
ING HER OWN SNoKE.-A correspondent of
the ~ J.. Times who looks at the world
from an engineel' point OF view, writes
thus from the Iron City:
For example, am lool ing out from
my window upon halfa mile of anboats.
every one of which, together Will several
hundred others all the way from here to
New Orleans are throwing away untold
tons of fuel from their chimueys. For al
least four years, hundreds ofengineers have
seen this absurd sacrifice OF coal, daily,
and would have been only too glad to
have made such alterations in the turna.
ces of these steamboats,, at a moderate
cost, as would have totally prevented this
waste of fuel, and this intol rube nuisance
Of smoke. There is no mistake about the
possibility, the absolute convenience of
entirely preventing the smoke OF bitumin-
Gus coal, and of increasing t. calorific ei>
feet at least one quarter. 1t has been done
regularly for years on n great many steam
boats in other counties, and III stationary
boilers and locomotives at home and abroad
It merely consists in giving the carburet-
ted hydrogen and the SMALL amount OF
carbonic oxyd which pass from the fire an
intimate mechanical mixture with air, and
ample space, time and heat for the cheni-
cal mixture"
One cannot help ancying how odd it
would look to see Pittsburgh without that
eternal cloud hanging over the streets,
hills and rivers-but such a vision is too
bright to be permanent The correspon d.
ent adds
The railways are doing better. Many
Of them are Burning up their fuel, singu-
larly enough. The Pennsylvania Roilroad
Company are about TO institute a careful
system of coal burning experiments, aided

The results will be duly gwen to the pub
