IHussratIOn Of two Phases Of
Huunet Nature


The Chicago Commercial Express records
two instances of the coEduct of wealthy mez
of that city, which illustrate respectively the
dark and the bright side of human char
acter: .4..f
The first is a case of landlord in tho West
Division, to whom a worthy widow had
fallen in arrears for rent, in keering board
ing-house. The landlord, by some process
of law, or force, attached her effects, and
thrust her into the street, with her three
children, suddenly, and without mercy, from
the mere wantonness of power, for the Sc
curity of the debt was sufficient and the
commonest humanity would have allowed
the unfortunate woman little time to find
some shelter or some means of sustenance.
Let every body make personal inquiry until
every body finds out who this landlord is,
and then let the scorn of every one be SO
seething that his property will be a curse to
him.
In contrast to this case, we are glad to be
able to mention the course of prominent
firm in the produce commission business
whose confidential clerk, in the folly Of youth,
embezzled their funds. They pursued him.
brought him back, led him to sincere repent
ance, saved him from impending punishment,
and actually restored him to the same re-
sponsible position he had previously occu-
pied. He would be less than human should
he fail, after such demonstration of kindness,
to reward his employers by the most devoted
honesty at the same time that he re-estab-
fishes his tarnished reputation by long years
of Tectitude.

BIRTHS AND DEATHS IN RHODE ISLAND.
The Rhode Island State registration report
for 1859 shows that 4, 800 births. 1872 mar
riages and 2,27O deaths were registered in
that year., Compared with 1858, there were
237 more births, 234 marriages and 346 less
deaths-aquite favorable balance sheet.
There was very nearly an equal number of
native and foreign-born fathers of the chill
dren: and twice as many purely native as
purely foreign born couples married. The
average age at death was thirty-ene to
thirty-nine years, being higher than ever be-
fore; 422 deaths were ascribed to consump-
tion and III to old age. 0fthe two centen-
aTians who died in SO, one was James How
land, of jamestown, the last Rhode Island
slave. ......f DE- ....

SINGULAR Instinct OF BIRDs- Their Sense
Of Ddnger.-This power of judging of actual
danger, and the free and easy boldness which
results from it, are by 10 means uncommon.
Many birds seem to have a most correct no.
tion of guns range, and, while scrupulously
careful to keep Beyond it, confne their care
to this caution, though the most obvious re-
source would be to fly right away out of
sight and hearing, which they do not choose
to do. And they some times appear to make
even an ostentatious use of their power,
fairly putting their wit and cleyerness in an
tagonism to that Of man, for the benefit of
their fellows. a.t' ' $3.50
Anaturalist in Brazil made an expedition
to one Of the islands of the Amazon, to shoot
.spoonbills, and ibises. His design was com.
pletely baflled by wretched little sand piper,
that preceded him, continually uttering his
tell-tale cry, which at ouce aroused all the
birds within hearing. Throughout the day
did this individual bird continue It's self inn
posed duty of sentinel to others, elfectually
preventing the approach of The fowler to
the game, and yet managing to keep out of
the reach Of his gun. n

Discovery OF A PLoT TO AssAssINATE THE
KING OF ITALY.--The Turin correspondent
of the London Neos writes:
Doubtless you remember the rumor about a
fortnight ago, in Vienna, that Victor En-
manuel had been killed at Naples and how
the Viennese politicians were discussing
whether Naples would have a republic or
the natural heir of Victor Emmanuel for q
king, with the regency, or a restoration in
the person OF Francis II, or a French Prince
Well, there was the same rumor at Rome
and Venice. After much inquiry the follow
ing information is what we obtained respect
ing this report A plot had really been laid
at Gaeta and Rome, and it was known, very
well known, at the courts of Vienna and
Madrid but certain arrests made at Naples
broke the thread of the plot in question
accidentally, it seems, for the police who
effected the arrests were ignorant of the
plot itself. AS often happens, some of the
parties arrested thought all had been dis
covered, and thus put the police upon an
other scent, II is, however, true that secret
and reliable Information was sent us here
from Rome as WE'LL so that the police are
now enabled to collect the most importast
information respecting huge Conspiracy,
concocted at Rome, and which is being ex-
tended through Italy and France by means
of the clergy and Others.

PECULIAR HONOR OF THE LoxD MAYOR OF
LoNDoN.-The Lord Mayor Of London, with
his introduction into office, becomes lord
for year, but after the end of his time he
dwindles into plain Mr.. Smith again, unless
the Queen should dub him knight, in the
interim, which is usually done, if the sover-
eign visits the limits of the "city" proper
during his mayoralty. His residence is the
stately Mansion House, which, with its fa-
nous Egyptian Hail. is SO celebrated in the
tant duty Of the Mayor Of London lon to fur
nish forth frequent and abundant feast.
Forty thousand dollars, his salary, does not
suffice for the ordinary expenses of his term,
and he must be a wealthy man who can fill
the Office with credit to himself, and salts
faction to the citizens.

QUEER IDEA OF AN OATH AND ITS VIOLA
TIoN.-At the criminal term of the Supreme
Court, now being held in Lawrence, Mass,
little boy, six years old, was called as a
witness in an assault case. The District
Attorney, having some doubts whether a
boy of 80 tender age knew the nature of an
oath, proceeded to ask him few questions,
as follows: District Attorney-Little boy,
do you know what it is to testify2" Little
boy--"I suppose it is to tell the TRUTH Dis
trict tAttorney--"Yes; but what would be
the consequences if you did not tell the
truth ?" Little bOy-"I suppose should be
sent to jail" District Attorney-'But
would not God punish your Little boy

TYRANNY OF TIN ANCIENT RoMANs.-The
Romans, who boasted so much of their own
freedom, were awful tyrants to their slaves
The LictoTs, who attended the ConsulA, bore
their tdsces, or bundles of rods, for use as
well as for show. Sometimes even free and
high personages were whipped. The cele-
brated historian Sallust, having courted the
daughter of Tullia and wife of Milo, received
a severe hogging, and was then only released
gula used the whip with his own hand, and
even the Vestal Virgins, in case Of breach
of their vow, were not always exempt. For
instance, the Vestal Urbina was whipped bv
a priest, and led in procession through the
streets. -
