Romance of First Love-The Banker's
Daughter and the NObieman's Son.

Some thirty years ago there lived in the
city of London an opulent Jewish banker OF
the name of R. AS rich men usually have,
the subject of the present sketch had a lovely
daughter rejoicing in the Scriptural name OF
Sarah. AS Sarah reached the age of woman
hood, her beauty, and coupled with her
fathers wealth, drew to her feet many suit
ers; only one, however, could gain the prize
and that one was H.. the son of rich Polish
nobleman. But when did the "course OF
true love run SMOOTH" II. and his father
became mixed up in one of the many revolu-
tions that have occurred in Poland, their
estates were confiscated, and they were
obliged to flee for their lives.
With the flight of 3. 3 riches r. discovered
that his intended son-in-law would not do,
and so told the young people. The lovers
separated with VOWS of eternal constancy, II.
emigrating to this country, and Sarah re-
mained in London. But as the copy book
says, out of sight, out of mind" and 30 in
this case. The sea had rolled between the
lovers for about year, when rich suitoi
paid his addresses to Sarah, who accepted and
married him. Fl. was almost distracted when
he heard the news, but reflection coming tC

Years passed on; the husband of Sarah dice

The AMERICAN PRAIRIE Doc KILLING
SNAKES IN ENGLAND.-The American prairie
dog taken over to the English Geological
Gardens, by Mr.. Grantley Berkeley, has been
giving an exhibition of his powers by killing
a couple of English snakes. Mr.. Berkley's
opinion was, that the rattlesnake frequented
the haunts Of the prairie dog for the purpose
OF preying upon the young Of the latter, and
that the animal would evince IFS antipathy
TO the reptile. When the snakes were intro
duced to the den, the prairie dog seemed to
take no other notice Of them than furtive
glance or two. He watched his opportunity,
however, gave one of them a bite near the
tail, and again seizing chance took him
nehind the head, and shook him as terrier
does rat, killing him in a very short time.
He afterward served the other the same way.
A snake was then introduced TO an ichneu-
mon. The latter, with much care and eau
ton to avoid being bitten, killed the reptile
with one stroke Of his claw behind the head.
It was thought that he dislocated the spine
at the joint next to the head.

YOUNG BoMBA's ILLNESS FEIGNED.--A Paris
correspondent says; 1t now turns ont that
the young Bomba's illness was all a sham.
When Baron Brenier had forced him to an
interview, and convinced him that he had no
chance but a thorough understanding with
the Sovereign of North Italy, foreign aid be-
ing utterly out of the question, the Juvenile
Bourbon felt a qualm of conscience at any
alliance with an 'excommunicated power,
and feigned sickness TO allow of leave and
license from the Court of Rome, which per-
formance occupied two days. On receipt of
the 'dispensation,' this monarch of. an inde-
pendent kingdom was at liberty to transact
the business of the State, and proclaim to the
world his desire for intimate communion with
a Sovereign under full Papal ban. Such is
the farce as seen from behind the stage"

BeautItu, Balloon Ascension.

Thursday was a gala day at Waterford, N.
Y, the village being thronged with strangers
from all parts of the surrounding country, to
witness the ascension of John La Mountain
in his celebrated balloon Atlantic" 1t was
inflated in Troy, and was conveyed up the
river by the means of four-oared yawl, and
landed safely at the skid landing. The
mouth of the balloon was closed, and by
means of cords it was easily managed, the
weather being calm. Preceded by the Me-
chanicsville Brass Band four men guided
the balloon through Second-street success
fully until they reached Broad-street, when
the rope came In contact with the telegraph
wires. La Mountain was then seated in the
basket and the balloon was then on line
with the top Of the houses. La Mountain
speedily got himself out of this dilemma by
hauling up the chords one after the other
and throwing them over the wires, when the
men renewed their march through Broad
street until they reached the Morgan House.
The balloon was then drawn down to the
street, when La Mountain commenced prep
aration for his erial voyage, taking in pro-
visions, clothing, instruments for taking OBJ
servations, &c. In the mean time hats were
passed about in the crowd and very hand
some collection taken up, and the money
handed over to Mr.. La Mountain.
Every thing being in readiness, the cords
were cut, when the Atlantlc ascenoed amid
the cheers of vast and almost countless
throng Of human beings, La Mountain in re.
turn waving his hat and flag. The balloon
rose steadily but rapidly upward, distance
of full mile directly over Broad-street
when it was borne in anortheasterly direc-
ton. 1t was the most successful as well as
the most beautiful and satisfactory ascension
he has ever made, and was witnessed by from
5000 to 10000 people. For an hour or more
he was seen from the village, and the passen.
gers by the evening train from the north
stated that he passed over the Saratogt
Springs.
The balloon continued in a northeasterly
course for two hours and half and at eigh
o'clock, La Mountain landed in Pownal, Vt.
having Travelled thirty miles and enjoyed ont
of the most pleasant arial voyages ever per
formed. The landing was successful anC
accomplished with no damage to the At
lantic."

SINGULAR CHINESE F uNERAL CusroM--In
the lively account by the Marquis de Moges,
of Baron Gross Embassy to China and Ja-
pan, recently published in London, there are
many curious incidents related of the people
with whom he sojourned. Among other
things he relates a custom prevailing at Chi
nese funerals, which is said not to have been
mentioned elsewhere, and therefore deserves
to be noted now. Along the roads leading
to the native cemeteries at Canton there are
strewed about myriadsof little bits of silvered
paper. These are thrown on the ground as
the funeral procession passes along, and their
object is ITO keep the devil employed, and
prevent him from devouring the soul Of the
deceased, when body is about to be depos-
tied in its last resting place. The devil is de-
ceived by these glittering slips of paper he
mistak es them for coins, and keeps STOPPING
TO pick them up In this way the evil spirit
has his attention diverted until the body is
fairly placed in the tomb" 500 fE 'u

oosp1r,oN OF SLAVERY IN NEW ORLEANS

CONDITION OF SLAVERY IN New ORLEANS
II is not little surprising, says the New Or
leans Bulletin, 10 know the odd conceits which
frequently fill the minds of our Northern and
Western friends about this same peculiar Sin
stitution." five should tell them that it is a
common circumstance for slaves in New Or
leans to carry gold watches and sport gold
watch chains about their persons on Sundays,
and frequently on other days also, they
would, doubtless, suspect us of an attempt to
play off hoax upon them, to practice upon
their credulity. And should we tell them
that there are some eight or ten African
churches here, where our servants meet en-
tirely by themselves, and from choice, reg
ularly every Sunday, and are preached to by
both white and colored preachers, some Of
the latter being themselvesslave they would
scarcely credit our statements. In addition
to this, many servants attend church with
their masters and mistresses in the various
churches of the city--the galleries or other
convenient portions Of churches being appro-
priated for the purpose. Many of these SER
wants present not only descent and re-
spectacle but an elegant appearance--being
better dressed, and perhaps, we might add,
better behaved than multitude Of those who
waste 80 much breath in talking and fretting
about what they know so little OF.

AN EXTENSIVE FIRE IN THE WooDs.-A
gentleman who left Atlantic City at a late
hour yesterday afternoon brings us the in-
woods near Egg Harbor, supposed TO have
originated from the burning out of a coal pit.
The flames seemed to have extended in
length and breadth some twenty-five miles,
and were rapidly approaching the line of the
railroad. Two houses are known TO have
been destroyed, and.tbe smoke along the line
ofthe road for a short distance was SO dense
that scarcely any thing could be seen. Egg
Harbor is some twenty miles distant from
Atlantic City, and about forty from Camden.

RICE ONE CENT.
Dark Picture Of Domestic Life-FalI Of n
Family from Wealth and Prosperity to
Prostitution and Misery.

Prostitution and Misery. .. .
A few years since, says the Albany IN. "
Knicksrbocker, there dwelt upon the banks
of the Norman's Kill Creek, short distance
from this city family named B., whose
future promised TO be one Of greatness. II
consisted of a mother, two daughters and a
son. The mother was a very respectable
appearing old lady, possessing considerable
intelligence, and occupied the position Of
Matron at our County Asylum. The son
was remarkably smart young man of bis
age, and was looked upon by all as perfect
criterion Of propriety and decency. The
girls were not only industrious, lady-like and
smart, but were especially remarked for
their beauty One of them, in particular,
was more like wax figure than human
being--mild, gentle and unassuming-pos-
sessing none of those airy pretensions that
now 60 80 far toward making up large
portion of the American females.
This family was possessed of some cQnsid-
cradle property, and their home was sur
rounded with all the luxury and prosperity
any one could desire. This was the case not
two years since. From some cause or other,
the Evil One shot destructive bomb-shell
into the midst of this peaceful and happy
throng. It burst aud its bad influence seemed
to take possession of every member of the
household. The mother took to drink. The
son became reckless and turned a thief. The
girls also became afflicted with the dire
malady Just then prevalent in the family.
They mingled with low associations, and soon
fell victims to the apparently bright promises
of the seducer. All were now on fair road
to destruction. What property they pos
sesessed was squandered by them with great
rapidity. The mother became a regular tip
pler and disposed of every thing she could
lay hand on for rum.
The young man was soon under arrest on
charge Of embezzlement, and the girls be-
came inmates of house of prostitution.
The mother, Mrs. B., came to this city and
took up her abode on Delaware-street. Her
house was a resort for all kinds of charac-
ters. 1t became nuisance to the neighbor-
hood-was complained of and she was ar
rested as the keeper of disorderly house.
This charge could not be established, yet she
was held as disorderly person, for the
neighbors proved sufficient to have driven
her out of the community. She was sent to
| Jail and her case went TO the Special Ses-
sons 1t was tried on Tuesday last before
that Court. Mrs. B. was convicted and SEN
fenced to the Penitentiary for six months
| The son of this woman has become wan
derer. The girls are now inmates Of house
of assignation, and the ruin of that once
happy family is consummated.

Breaking Up of the Galway steamship

Line.
Among the intelligence by the Africa, we
have the fact that the Galway Steamship
Company has been sold. According to the
statements in the London papers, transfer
has been made of all the interest, right, title
and mail contract to Aliens Canadian line
The ships and plant of the Galway Com
pany have not been TAKEN but the new man
ayers are bound to run from Galway to Que
bee. They already get 100000 a year from
the Canadian Government and this, with the
Galway and Newfoundland subsidy, will
make them up G240,000 year ($700, 000) for
O weekly service, W hich can be carried on by
screw steamers. And they have paid f200,-
900 ($l,0e0,OOO) for the contract, without
taking one single ship, piece of property, or
liability. What the Galway Atlantic Royal
Mail Steam Navigation Company will do re-
mains to be seen. Undoubtedly they will
wind up-go into liquidation. But they have
100000 cash and three or four frst-class
steamers, besides Some older boats.
Then they have pocketed loss, as shown
by their balance-sheet, of El25, 900 (univer-
sally believed to be far greaterl, and they
have no subsidy. Mr. Lever has had nothing
to do with the management since the COM
pany was formed. The present Government
having very large majority in the House of
Commons, are hostile to the contract made by
Lord Derby's Government with the Atlantic
Company, and opposition being threatened
by very powerful Government and Liver
pool interest, it was thought best to compro-
mise the matter, and, with the consent of
Government and all parties, make a transfer.
1t has not yet been formally ratified by the
Government, but it will be without doubt.
1t is stated, however that steam communi-
cation between this country and Ireland is
only suspended, and that Mr. Lever and other
gentlemen will start another line between
New York and Galway, over which the Brit
ish Government will have no control.
