A Coon REooRD.-We cannot resist the desire
to say, as we are passing along in our vocation
of a journalist, that an examination Ofthe books
kept by George @. catrow, Esq, recording
clerk in the Clerks office, are specimens OF neat
penmanship, and evidences of superior knowl
edge OF the duties of his position. Mr.. O. is
not mere ,Oriter; the initiated can tell by a
glance at his work that he understands just
hOw it ought to be done. There is no dificulN
ty whatever In referring to any legal point we
desire to find, for every thing is not only un-
der the proper head, but marginal notes are
made SO clearly that we have but to cast the
eye along the page to instantly "catch" the de-
sired subject of search. We speak particularly
of this matter from the fact that It is unusual
and an important improvement on mos
records.

CHRIsTYs-FAREwELL CoScBRT,-In spite Of
the sultry weather, large audience was pre-
sent at Huston Hall last evening, to see and
hear those clever gentlemen and unequalled
musicians and Ethiopian delineators, the
Chrsty Minstrels. More people could have
got into the hall and we fear some we're kept
away for fear there would be a"jawb," and the
heat would be intolerable. Indeed, several
persons informed us that they were kept away
on that account.
The Christys fully sustained their high re-
putation, and their audience was very agreeably
entertained. It is not necessary for US to re
commend the Christys; their good qualities are
too well known. We heard the frequent remark
last night-"the Campbells are good, but they
cannot come up TO the Christys." We take it
that tells the story" As musicians, vocalists
and actors, they stand without rivals in thcir
line.
This evening the programme will be mainly
changed, and number of novelties and ey
tras will be introduced. The farewell concert
this evening will be bumper, and We hope tc
see the Hall crowded TO oveifiowing. Procure

Mr. Broderick's Acquirem ents.

Few people, even Of those who were on inti-
mate and friendly personal relations with Mr..
Broderick, were aware OF the extent of his read
ing or his varied and thorough requirements
The politician and the ambitions man of the
world, as he appeared to most people, was the
worst side of bis character. His intellect was of
the quickest and most comprehensive order, and
his will was SO powerful as TO enable him to con-
centrate his whole mind on any given subject
Hence in the midst of the most exciting poiti-
cal contest, he could at will withdraw his mind
from it, and give the closest attention to what
ever he was reading. His active intellect COM
PEELED him to read, for he had little relish for
vulgar amusements, and his tastes always in
clined him to be very much alone. He al
ways ascetic in his life and habits. His
passions and appetites were as completely sub
jectto his will as eyerwere Napoleon Bonaparte's.
Accordingly, he read immensely. OF classic
English literature he had read everything, and
what he read he analysed, weighed and consid-
cred. His nights were spent over the works OF
Z" the grand old masters"
No one who did not know him intimately
would have supposed, meeting him in che
street, that he had spent half of the night pre-
yious in reading the most abstruse poetry. Yet
very likely such was the fact. The works of all
the great poets were as familiar to him as house
hold words. His tastes led him to admire the
weird-like, subtle and mysterious. Of all the
English poets, he especially admired the mystic,
spiritual, incomprehensibe Shelley. Tennyson,
too, was great favorite of his /; so was Words
worth. But how few of those who supposed that
they knew him well had any idea of his rich
stores of classic knowledge? He had such
disgust and .aversis7sto TX looking like
pedantry or affectat.5.i,t " .5 very few, and
those his most intimate and trusted friends were
aware how extensive was his reading and how
general his knowledge of hooks and men. He
also felt his want of early education, and
distrusted himself very much when books and
literature were under discussion. Yet as he
grew older. and came more in contact with men,
he more fully appreciated his own powers; and
had he lived, he would have attained high po-
sition in other fields than that of politics.
In speaking of the habits and tastes of the
honored dead, we speak that we do know. We
have seen many men of eminence, and have
looked upon the faces of nearly all the great
men of this generation and in all the qualities
that make up the hero, whom men admire for
courage, nerve, and unhesitating devotion to
principle, we have seen none who equaled David

LON DON
CLUB HOUSE GIN.
TO THE PUBLIC.

TNH CELEBRATED GIN-pretending to
L nothing but what it is, viz a pure and un-
adulterated article, and assuming no artificial
merits of what it is not, as some of its rival imi-
tators do-after five years of public approval
and very extensive sales in California, has been
pronounced by the public to be superior, not on
ly as beverage of general use to any other ar
tcle competing against it, bnt is
UnrivalIed in its Medical Efficiency
in most cases of complaint. Topersons travel
ing in these days of rapid transit from East to
West, North to South, who are constantly chang
ing their water rs well as their climate: who are
drinking, indeed, dozen kinds of water in ev-
cry twenty-four hours, and each draft contain
ing some property acting in chemical antagonism
to the preceding one, thereby causing an unnat-
ural degree of excitement to the stomach-it is
positively and absolutely necessary to use a
counteracting agent. From the fact that the
"London Club House Gino
Is prepared expressly TO meet such exigencies,
and to act as we know it will act, as an anti
dote, we confidently prescribe it as the very best
article in the country. The name of " Aromatic
Scheidam Schnapps" has never been attached
in any way to this article. In first presenting
the
"LOndon Club House Gin"
to the public, my aim was to give them pure
and unadulterated article of Gin, and to call it
by its right name. The success attending its
introduction and extensive sale in California is
sufficient guarantee of the high appreciation
OF the article by consumers.
Various parties have from time to time put up
and shipped to California an article which they
call "Club House Gin" My Gin, which has
gained such a reputation in California is brand

Gen. Jackson's suuf Boz.

We see it stated that the gold suuff-box, de-
signed by Gen jackson to be presented to the
American soldier who should acquit himself
with the most valor in the late war between the
United States and Mexico, and which, it will be
remembered, was some time since awarded to
Gen Ward b. Burnett, Of New York, was, at
recent day, to have been formally presented at
the City Hall, Nashville
We do not understand why it is that Gen.
Burnett has been awarded the distinguished
honor of having acquitted himself with the most
salor in the war with Mexico. What did he do
to, entite him to such high distinction ? Where
are the valorous acts recorded in the pages OF
our country's history? Where were the parti-
cular acts of valor displayed? Upon what
fields? and when? We confess that, in calling
to mind the names of prominent actors on the
fields of Mexico, we do not find the name of
Gen. Ward B. Burnett among the number. For
our life we cannot remember that such a man
fought in Mexico at all. And yet we presume
our memory is at fault Gen. Burnett must have
been the hero of the Mexican war, otherwise
even the trckery of New York politicians would
never have secured for him this distinguished
honor. OF course Gen. Ward B. Burnett, by
his deeds of extraordinary daring and valor,
completely oyershadowed the acts of Scott,
Shields, Hays, McCulloch, Pillow, Harney,
Twiggs, Wool, Fremont, Cadwalader Black,
May, Bragg, Braxton, Davis, Wright, Pickett,
and a hundred others that we could name OF
course he was the Washington or the Marion or
the Morgan of the Mexican war. But what
astonishes us is, that we never heart of it be-
fore, or if we did, have completely forgotten it.

A story with n Moral.

Mr.. Bones, of the firm of Fossil, Bones & Co.,
was one of those remarkable money making
men whose uninterrupted success in trade has
been the wonder, and afforded the material for
the gossip of the town for several years. Being
of familiar turn of mind, lie was frequently in
terrogated en- the subject, and invariably gave,
as the secret OF his success, that he minded his
own business.
gentleman met Mr. Bones on the Assanpink
Bridge He was gazing intenty on the dashing
foaming waters as they fell over the dam. He
was evidently in a brown study. Our friend
ventured to disturb his cogitations.
:! Mr.. Bones, tell me how to make thousand
dollars"
Mr.. Bones continued looking intently at the
water. At last he ventured reply.
"Do you see that dam, my friend ?"
Certainly, do"
"Well, here you may learn the secret of max
ing money. The water would waste away, and
be of no practical use to anybody but for the
DAM That dam turns it to good account, makes
it perform some useful purpose, and then suffers
it to pass along. The large papermill is kept
in constant motion by the simple economy

the land on the sheets that are daily turned out
and in the different processes through which it
passes money is made. So it is in the living of
hundreds of people They get enough of money.
1t passes through their hands every day, and at
the years end they are no better off. What is
the reason? They want dam. Their expen-
ditures are increasing, and no practical good is
attained They want them damned up, so that
nothing will pass through their hands without
bringing something back without accomplish
ing some useful purpose. Dam up your expen-
ses, and you will soon have enough occasionally
to spare little just like that dam. Look at that,

ia OF late years an ingenious process has
been discovered by which gliding is performed
by means of electricity with the greatest facility,
and which possesses many advantages over the
process ofamalgamation. Indeed, electro -gild-
ing and plating is of the most interesting
discoveries of the present time. When current
of electricity is made to pass through a solution
of metallic salt, the salt is decomposed, the
metal passing to the negative, and the acid, or
solvent, to the positive pole of the gavanic bat
terry. By means of this principle, it is found
possible to coat metal with another by plung-
ing it into a solution OF the latter, and employ
ing a galvanic battery or apparatus. 1t is GER
tainly most wonderful and valuat lie process.

The DuEL-FALsE Issue RAisED.-If the sur
vivor of the late duel escape the peEalty of the
law, it will be owing to the course pursued bv
a certain class of politicians and preachers in
raising false issue, making sectional matter
of that which is purely personal Iti not Judge
Terry, but the people of one entire section of the
country they have arraigned. This is injudicious
as it is unjust. Fighting politicians stand on
their own merits, it matters not where they hap
pened to be born or raised The conduct of the
politicians mentioned, is contemplate, that of
the brawling fanatic in the pulpit is douby dis
gustins and reprehensible.-Pa Methodist
