The arrival Of Japanese Norman ia au-
nounced in the San Fraueisco papers, a. one Of
the passengers BY the last vessel from the land
of the No-Kamis. The AIsa Calijoraiaa says:
We were yesterday permitted, in dreadful
secrecy" to witness the opening Of the box.
The lid was removed, and the Norman sat re-
vealed in all its contorted hideousness. No de-
sc1iption could do it Justice, but though ne de-
spaif at the outset, We will attempt it: The
norman is about three inches taller than the
mermaid be sits squatted lfe superaunuated
digger Indian, and appears like skinny. dried
up mummy. The body, legs and arms are long
and bony, and here and there appear little totts
of hair, though tue body is nearly deauded Of
such covering. The creature is provided With
hands something between the human appendsge
and the dippeFs Of al otter, and terminate IN
three fingers and sharp claws. It appears to
have been aphibious, aud muat have propelled
in the water with great B1litne"s- The ribs,
underneath the skinny covering, are apparent,
and look like those Of human being. The
most curious part of all is the head, which con-
meets with tbs body by 4 arrow, skinny neck,
and its shape is like that Of mermaid, but out
Of the top Of it grow two verl'able horns, giving
to the creature singular appearance a. he
grlns from between bis shining rows0f diuolou-
tiye teeth. Little tufts Of ha1r appear on The
spot " where the hair ought to grow, and a1so
about the ea1s- Had his Satanic Majesty ever
taken it into his noddle to hecome asnd incar.
nate, and yet preserve his identity, he could
scarcely have studied ont more appropriate
shape than this.

{ Visible Admixlures - in Virginia.,

Oar benevolent Democrats in Illinois, who
have so repeatedly signalized their zeal In car
rying out not only The Dred Scott doctrine that
the negro has "no rights which the white man
is bound TO retpect," but also in maintaining
that the least mixture of African blood mikes
one negro, should send missionaries where
stdtutt exists in strict accordance with the
"visible admi1ture" decision Of our Supreme
Court, which has 20 provoked Democratic de-
nunciasion. The following is from the Alexan.
dria (Va) Ga:ate Of the 9th inst; :-r,-
1t the recent session of the County Court two
men Of mixed blood appeared before the court,
aud havlrK proved themselves octoroons, or
possessing but one eighth Of negro blood, asked
the court 10 cerufy that they we're no negroes.
The court having heard the evidence, granted
the certificate atked for. The object of this
process is to release the parties applying from
the obligations and penalties attached to free
negroes By the laws Of this commonwealth.
The application was founded upon the following
section OF the Code Of Virginia:
"The court OF apT county earooEaion. upon .at'sse
tn,y pr o by While pes;on the fact may grant any
fra p+rsoa ased Gtot tes.deot there certificate
thai rot negro which certificate <hl pf-tect such
petton a.Ant The penalt and diaAGtes to which fire.
neEr-ea arc subject Is auth."
This is, We believe, the first application for
the benefit Of this provision Of the State LAM
erer made in this county.

NThc Country Safe.''

The Missouri Htpu1liedn has changed its
mind. It now believes that the Democracy will
not dissolve the Union in consequence Of the
election of Lincoln 10 the Presidency. Hear it:
1t must be confessed as somewhat remarka.
ble, that the more imminent the election Of a
Black Republican President and the incoming
Of Black R~pu ,lican Administration. the less
violent is the disunlon outery which has 50
stunned the ears OF the people for few years
past. Should Lincoln come in they
(the Democrsts) will be law-abiding citizens;
taking good Offices from the dispenser OF exec
utive patronage, whenever there happen to BE-
no Republicans 1t hand to step 10, serving their
couutrJ patrioticaiiy and peacefully. Notwith-
standing their former bravsart boaata aud the
furious din and uproar they ret up against the
Union, which they awo1e would go to pieces,
whenever Black Republican WAS elected, the
dulce: notes they NOW emit are like the cooling
heard ia = dove cote. As they raised the cry Of
"wolfl' when the danger was distant end are
row fairly composed when the danger is near,
we may possibly conclude that they really never
had any Tears, nor any intention Of aching on
the fears they feixned. 80 re suppose that No
may end Is We begun, BY remazklng that the
country Ii safe"
