The PEasas OF eRarIRsaI6i

w hat then are the projects of Carl
baldl and the revolution which he per-
sonifies ? From the subordinate posi-
ton of partisan leader, clearing the
front of the French and beating up the
quarters of the Austrians, he has raised
himself by his gallantry and enterprise
to position in which he may fairly be
ranked among those influences which
dispose of the destiny of that country
which he has loved so well and served
SO truly. He is fettered by no treaty
obligations, by no dynastic traditions.
The nature Of his position relieves him
from the necessity of following anything
but the dictates Of his own Judgment
and the suggestions of his own genius.
Kings and Emperors are small indeed
beside a man who, with nothing to rely
on but his name, his intelligence, and
his courage, has found means to raise
himself to position which places in
his hands, as we can easily show. the
future destinies of Italy.
We know not what are Garibaldi's
intentions, but if we are to Judge of
them from what reaches us, we regard
them with more apr ehension than
nope. He is said to view the conquest
OF Sicily only as stepping-stone to the
conquest of Naples, and the united
force of Sicily and Naples as means
tor working out the deliverance of the
patrimony of St. Peter, if not Rome it.
self, from the sovereignty of the Pope.
Thus lord Of Southern Italy, he purpo-
ses, it is said, to attack the Austrian
empire, probably by creating revolu-
tlonary movement in Hungary, and
never to sheathe his sword till Italy,
including the province of Venetia, shall
shall acknowledge the single sceptre Of
Victor Emanuel. London Times.

How Flies helped on the Cause Of Amer
lean Liberty.

In the last volume Of Randall's Life
of Jefferson, the following annecdote
is given as related by Mr.. Jefferson:
Whilst the question ofIndependence
was before Congress, it had its meetings
near a livery stable. Its.members wore
short breeches and silk stockings, and
with handkerchief in hand they were
diligently employed in lashing the flies
from their legs. So very vexatious
was this annoyance, and to so great an
impotence did it rouse the sufferers.
that it hastned, if it did not aid, in in
ducing them promptly to affix their sig
natures.
''The anecdote I had from Mr.. Jeff
erson at Monticello, who seemed to
enjoy it very mnch, as wellsas to give
credit to the influence Of the flies. He
told it to me with much glee, and seem.
ed to retain vivid recollection Of the
severity Of on attack, from which the
only relief was signing the paper and
flying from the scene"

at banquets were crowned with them

whenever they wished to throw beauty,

they cast flowers.

So lately dead SO soon forgotten. -
IT'S the way of the world. We flourish
for awhile. Men take us by the hand,
and are anxious about the health of our
bodies, and laugh at our jokes, and we
really think, like the fly on the wheel,
that we have something to do with the
turning of the earth. Some day we die
and arc buried. The sun does not stop
for our funeral everything goes on as
usual; we are not missed IN the streets
men laugh at new Jokes; one or two
hearts feel the wound of affiiction, one
or two memories still hold our names
and forms !; but the crowd moves in its
daily circle ;and in three days the great
wave of time sweeps over our steps and
washes out the last vestige Of our lives.

There was a profound study among

The Excitement OF Enaoxieataom,

The love ofnarcotics and intoxicating
compounds is SO universal, it may al
most count as an instinct. Every nation
has it in a greater or less degree; some
in the shape Of opium, some Of smoking,
some in drink, some Of snuff; but from
the equator to the snow line, it exists
"a trife changed in dress, according
to the climate, but always the same
need, the same desire. Kings have
decreed punishments on the secular
side: priests have anathemized on the
spiritual; lawmakers have sought to
pluck out the habit, root and branch,
from their people; but all to no good
man still goes on smoking, snufing
and chewing; putting an enemy into
his heart to steal away his brains, and
finding immense satisfaction in a prac-
tice that makes him both an invalid and
a mailman, and never quits him till 1t
has laid him fairly in the grave
