a WlFE's DEVOTION TO HER HUSBAND. The
heroic conduct. says the st Louis Express, Of
Mrs j. w Mcdonald who, with her hus-
band was travelling South on board the i'll
fated steamer Pacific. at the time that boat
was destroyed by fire, at Uniontown, Ky, is
a subject Of general admiration. Mr. Nc
Donald, who was in an advanced stage Of
consumption, was going South to benefit his
health, waen death, which had pursued him
in "consumpton's ghastly FORM" overlook
him, and cut short his earthly career in the
most terrible of all shapes. The Louisville
Courier, referring to Mrs. McDonalds noble
conduct, says:
The announcement ofthe conhagration was
too much for his delicate nerves and the
poor man swooned and died amid the excite
ment. The wife refused to leave the corpse
of her husband to the merciless. frey ele-
ment, but stood bravely by his death-6ed un.
til the flames licked the panels of the state
room in which the corpse lay In vain she
offered almost fabulous sums ofreward to any
oae who would convey the body to the
shore; and in sheer desperation she caught
up the liteless form and bore it to the guards
OF the boat. 1t fell from her grasp, however,
and was destroyed it is presumed. with the
boat. 1t was only by force that the mates
who had returned to the burning boat with
the yawl, succeeded in dragging Mrs Me-
Donald from the deYouring element such was
her devotion to her husband She remained
in UniOntown after the disaster, in the hope
of gathering up the ashes Of her deceased
husband.

ODD FELLOWS HALL.-This elegant build
ing, VIM. n. Cook contractor, is very nearly
completed, and it shows in every part fin
ished workmanship On the first floor, there
are four large stores, all Of them engaged
but one, and that one probably soon will be
On the second floor, there is a number of ele-
giant and airy rooms, the most of them al
ready engaged. There is one very fine room
which there has been some talk Of renting for
the Marysyille Library. 1t fronts upon ID
street, with large windows, and would be
convenient as we'll as pleasant place of resort
for both ladies and gentlemen. AT present
the library is situated in locality difficult OF
access to the ladies, whose convenience, we
think, should be particularly consulted, for
they cannot wade through difficulties and
mud, like men. We understand that there
are persons who oppose the library atogeth-
er and desire to have the city give it up
Such individuals, we hope, for the credit Of
the intellect of our city, are few. We think
it would hardly be worth while to talk to
thas class of people about anything, outside
of mere dollars and cents. The room can be
had for $25 per MONTH or $500 year, and
it would be worth while for the City Coun-
ell to consider the propriety Of locating the
library in that room.
The third story of the building rs TO be oc-
cupied by the odd Fellows exclusively. From
its windows there is view of vast extent
Of country. On the west, you may see the
Buttes and the snowy erests of the Coast
Range On the north, Lassen's Peak and its
brother heights, and on the east the long
line Of the Sierra Nevada, and the white
fcamy looking rim of the great Utah Basin
The lodg room is the largest in the State
and larger than most halls in the United
States 1t will be highly finished ard deco
rated. The library room for the Odd Fell
bows is an elegant apartment, commanding a
western prospect most beautiful to behold.
The building is situated so as to command
the breeze from every quarter, at some point
in the structure, and the circulation is so gem
eral that, from whatever direction it may
come, a current of air viii be felt we'll nigh
throughout the building. The external ap.
pearance Of the structure is striking. and i.
an ornament to our principal street, already
so well lined with elegant buildings.

PRoCLAMATIoN BY NICroR EMANUEL TO THE
NEAPoLIrANs AND SICrLIANs.-king Victor
Emanuel has published the following proc
lamation TO the Neapolitan and Sicilian peo-
pie, accepting the sovereign authority of the
Two Sicilies conferred on him by universal
suffrage:
To THE NEApoLfrAN AND SICtLAN PEOPLE;
Universal suffrage gives me the sovereign
power over these noble provinces ! accept
this solemn decree of the national will, not
from any ambition to reign, but from the
consciousness of being an Italian. My du-
ties increase with those of all Italians More
than ever a serious accoyd and constant at
negation have become necessary. All par
ties must vow with devoutness before the
Majesty Of Italy, which God has rescued
Here we must establish a Government guar
anteeing line of freedom to the people and
strict honesty of purpose in the face of pub
lie opinion. | rely upon the effcacious CO.
operation of all honest men. Wherever a
law imposes a curb on power and secures Lib
erty, the Government can do as much for
public good as the people for virtue. We
must prove to Europe that if the Irresistible
force of events has conquered the treaties es-
tablished for the secular thradom of Italy,
we know how to restore among the united
nation the empire of those immutable princi-
pies without which every nation is diseased,
and every authority meeting with opposition
Is unstable. NTCroR EMANUEL
