Mr.. FLAee, of Halniltons County has
damned the Constitution Of Ohio. The deed
was done in the House, on Thursday. A bill
to build new deaf and dumb asylum was
under consideration. A member raised a
constitutional objection. Upon this, the evil
spirit entered into Mr.. Flagg, and he ejacula-
ted" Damn the Constitutional We are de-
termined not to be carried away by our feel
ings, but to relate this calmly. We would
ask Mr.. Flagg if his constituents sent him to
the Legislature to damn the Constitution;"
and if it is just to represent the pious people
of Cincinnati to the assembled wisdom Of the
State as a Constitution-damning constitu-
ency2 ~ 4's
We would inquire more in sorrow than in
anger, whether, when he took the oath Of Office
as legislator, TO support the Constitution, he
meant to "damn the Constitution To be
sure, Mr.. FIagg said he meant damn in apious
sense; but if we understand what damning in
pious sense is, and we think pious educa-
ton warrants us in saying that we do, we
can not see how that helps the Constitution
or relieves Mr.. Flagg. Damning in pious
sense is the warmest yet discovered.
We are shocked and grieved that repre-
sentative of this city of churches and sabbath
schools, where religious instruction is cried
about the streets, where the Gazette is the
defender of the faith without reason, and the
Sunday Enquirer expounds the exact bound
ing between faith and reason, should, in the
Council of the State "damn the Constitution,
that precious work which bottled up, corked
and sealed the entire wisdom of the State.
Mr.. Hughes, of Butler could hardly believe
his ears when he heard this ''pious' pro-
family; yet Mr.. Hughes, of Butler, ought to
have confidence in his ears. He inquired If
he heard, Alright, Mr.. Flagg damn the Con-
stitution. DOUBTLESS you did, said the dam
mer, "in a decent sense.n Mr.. Hughes, oi
Butler, subsidized, family ejaculating-'It's
worse than Lloyd Garrison" Infinitely
worse, yet, of all the assembled wisdom Of
the State, which is consecrated every morn
ing with prayer, not one seemed to care q
damn for the Constitution, except Mr.
Hughes of Butler. ia-tf

A yIxgNIsu WoMAE oS ADVICE TO HER SEX.
Fanny Fern takes, a sharp stick to male
writers Of "books Of advice to women" She
says ut is as il some store-keeper should cut
out and make quantity of silk dresses with
hooks and eyes all ready to snap round Gus
toners. One won't tmcct at the belt; another
is short in the skirt another drags on the
ground; another congresses the chest to suiU-
cation; till my man of speculation finally
makes up his mind that it would have been
best to let every woman take her own meas
ure, instead of wriggling through life in habits
Of his choosing without regard to the way
the Almighty put her together.
We would suggest to Fanny that now-a-
days the Almighty has less than the millncr
to do with putting women together.

SELLING GooDs, NOT PRNcIPLEs.-New YORK
merchants have not yet forgotten the sensa-
ton produced in mercantile circles, during
the Castle Garden excitement, by the public
announcement made by Mr.. Henry G.
Bowen, (of the well-known silk-house of
Bowen & McNamee,) that the firm had re-
solved to "selI their goods, not their princi-
ples.n A few days ago slaveholding Ken
tuckian, after buying IL bill of goods at this
same establishment, (now Bowen, Holmes &
Co., went into the private office for con-
versation with the leading members Of the
firm on certain subjects connected with the
saving of the Union. The Kentuckian main.
tanned his side of the question with some
earnestness, until he was interrupted by the
sudden entrance of western man, astranger
to both parties who, without waiting to in
troduce himself, said to Mr.. b., n have come
to get a silk dress for my wife" "We don't
sell at retail, was the reply. 81 can't help
that" said the stranger 81 am in from the
West and | want to buy my wife a dress
from the man who sells his goods, and not
his principles" Mr. b. called one OF his
clerks, and directed him to show the gentle
man the finest silks in the establshment.
The Kentuckian put on look of lndierells
surprise, and, on resuming his conversation,
changed the topic of discourse.

MELoY's STATION, March l7.-Daniel Hay
den, resident of this county, was arrested
to-day, charged with an attempt to poison
one Ashworth and family. The attempt was
made about a year ago, by putting red pre-
cipitale, corrosive sublimate and arsenic in
cornmeab which, however, was not taken by
the family, owing to the peculiar smell of the
poison. A few days since Hayden, in state
Of intoxication, disclosed the affair. A for
mer wife of Ashworth died a few months
previous to the attempt at poisoning, and it
is supposed she aspoisoned., A deep malice
has existed between the parties for years.

THRILLING INCIDENT At MURDER TRIAL.
A singular incident occurred in the Ohio
(Va.) County Court, recently. 1t appears
that Mrs. Mast was placed upon the stand
to testify in relation to the murder of her
husband, aud that after giving her evidence,
she turned to the prisoners, and in voice
trembling with. passion and emotion, cX-
claimed; "You bloody villains, you muir
dered my poor husband!' The impassioncd
speech of the woman, proceeding from the
deepest grief, was too much for theassembled
throng, and rnanyRn eye was moistcned with
tears. The incident produced a profound
sensation and must have had its effect upon
both counsel and jury.

Horrible FATE--A MAN BURIED ALIVE.
Last week, while engaged in removing the
coilins from the German Lutheran Cemctary
in Albany, N. Y, the men came across one
containing the body of man named Wcrtz,
who died and was buried about eighteen
months since. From some cause or other,
persons present were prompted to open the
coffin, and when they did so, imagine their
surprise on beholding the body face down
ward, and the fingers of the man grappled in
his hair. From this it is evident that Wertz
had been buried alive, and in his agonies Of
distress on becoming conscious of his en-
tombment, had tortured himself into the po-
SitiOn described.

A FEMALE FASHIONABLE TnIEF.-Lastw week,
in New Orleans, young lady of respectable
connection, and wealthy, was detected in the
iewelry store A bill for the article was sent
to the hotel where she was living, when she
denied having bought anything of the kind,
and even assumed an air of indignation., The
proprietor of the store then called upon a
gentleman relation of the lady's, underwhose
protection she was and explained the cir
cumstances of the affair. He went up TO the
ladys room, and quite scene followed, re-
sulting in her confessng not only this but
also a number of other similar pecadilloes,
returning all the stolen articles and stating
from whom each was taken. They were all

The bill Judge Keys to authorize the
Commissioners of Hamilton County to take
the boarding of prisoners out of the hands of
the Sheriff passed the House on Friday,
and now that the responsibility is on the
Commissioners, to cut off the perquisites,
they must expect to be looked after sharp.
The people of Hamilton County will not
stand mere transfer of profits from one
party to another, but the cost of the support
of prisoners will be watched, and WITH be used
in the election of Commissioners. -.
The bill to change the compensation of
County Auditors from fees to- salaries, was
killed in the House. This was a bpll-headed
measure, aiming at retrenehtisaft, pf0hab15 4
but without the capacity or industry to re-
wise the fees and reduce them, therefore pro-
posing to sacrifice the system of payment by
fees, which is indispensable to the admins
tration Of the Office, and substitute that of
salaries, graduated by the population of the
counties, with salaried clerks at the discretion
of the Commissioners. The House did well
to kill it, and one would be tempted to think
that one who would load his retrenchment
bill with a measure so utterly uncalled
for as Il change in the system of payment,
from definite fees to salaries indefinite in
number, could not have been very anxious
for its passage. -
A bill was introduced in the House, Fri
day, to lease the entire public works for ten
years, to Messrs. Nugent, Miller and Robin
son, who offer to keep them in repair and
pay 5000, 900 bonus for the revenues.
On Saturday bill was introduced in the
Senate to provide for purchasing and distrib-
uting the fourth volume of Curwih's Re-
vised Statutes, and the general appropriation
bill was engrossed. The House passed a bill
to provide for levying tax to build bridges
on turnpike roads, and INDUCED in consider
able miscellaneous legislation.
