Governor CHASE, of Ohio, in his recent
message to the Legislature, thus alludes to
JOHN Browns invasion 4: " While we will
avow just admiration of noble qualities by
whomsoever displayed, We must not the less,
but rather the more, earnestly condemn all
nroads into States not merely at peace with
US, but united to us by the bond of political
union, and all attempts to excite within
their borders servile insurrection, necessarily
tending to involve the country in the calam,
tiles of civil as we'll as servile war;" Gov.
BANKS, of Massachusetts,, in his message
makes this allusion to BROWN " No one
who is connected with the administration of
justice. and witnesses the strength of sym.
pathy for hardened offenders, will be sur
prised that the public judgment should be
momentarily swayed by the exhibition in
any man of the highest qualities-a love of
truth as rare as it is beautiful, an integrity
as unbending as his spirit-one in whom
great suffering had perverted judgment, who
accepts the responsibilities of his acts
without complaint, and meets death as
sailor doubles CAPE"

An interesting article in Blackwood on the
fight at the Peiho, has the following pas
sage:
An American boat visited one of our
vessels, and, on wishing to leave her, the
officer found all his men had got out of the
boat. After some delay, they were found,
looking very hot, smoke begrimmed and
fghtiM. "Holloa, sirs," said the officer,
with assumed severity, don't you know
we are neutrals; what have you been doing?"
Begs pardon" said the gallant fellows,
looking very bashful they were very short
handed at the bow gun sir, and SO we giv'd
them help for fellowship's sake" They
had been hard at it for an hour. Gallant

that day to bind England and the United
States together than all your lawyers and pet
tifogging politicians have ever done to part

The Brooklyn Daily Times tells a story
about certain DR.. S., who being
called to visit sick man, undertook to kiss
the sick mans pretty wife. A few days
later, the Doctor, thinking no doubt of his
patients pretty wife, called again. In the
meantime she had told her mother and sister
of the Doctors acts, and they resolved to
summarily punish the Doctor for his i'm
proper conduct.
The wife and sister had supplied them
selves with couple pounds of -four apiece,
and a good strong cowhide. The Doctor
entered the apartment where they both were
sitting, and commenced casting sly chances
at the young wife, when she said to her
sister, ''are you ready?" sister replied

of the young wife, whose arm was strength

The Doctor yelled furiously and tried to
escape, but no go-the front door was

and tried the yard gate, followed all the
way by the wife, who was numerically ply

gate was locked also, and it was not until
his coat had been we'll busted that he sue
