FLoRENCE NIGHrINGALE's NEW Book
One of our medical friends, on whose judg-
ment we place great reliance, has handed us
the following notice of a new work, which we
believe from the recommendations we have
had of it, ought to be in the hands of every
person. who has occasion to have care of the
sick. More persons perish Cor want of proper
nursing than from almost any other cause,
and the book under notice, supplies want
that has been greatly felt, in almost every
family:
FLORENCE Nightingae's Notes on Nursing
ought TO be carefully studied by every human
being. No one is exempt from certain duties
toward the sick, and so far as regards their
proper fulillment it matters little whether
those duties be positive or negative. To know
how to leave an invalid alone is next in i'm
portance to knowing how to watch over him.
These "noles" are full and clear on many of
the important points of nursing, and contain
also most valuable sanitary suggestions. The
world wide reputa ion Of the author was es-
tablished by her noble services among the
sick and wounded of the Crimean war, but
the real foundation of her fame was laid far
back of that war, in years of faithful service
as hospital nurse. Thus it is her long and
broad experience among the sick that enables
this honest English woman to lay before us
such thoroughly correct thoughts on nursing,
1t is gratifying to know that many of our cit.
liens already possess this little book, and it is
to be hoped that this additional notice of the
work may stimulate others to benefit them.

Rev Daniel Worth in North Carolina, Tor cir.

n0unced. The incidents of the trial, reported
in somewhat redundant style in the journals Of
that vicinity, are worthy to be placed on re-
cord. The Raleigh Standard of the 7th inst,
gives a summary Of the hial Of which the fol.
lowing are the leading facts "The prisoner
was brought into court, with white bandage
around his head and rather complaisant, de-
fiant expression of countenance. The court
room was densey crowded. and as Mr.. Scott,
counsel Tor the state, read the bill of indict-
ment in a clear and solemn tone of voice, in.
dignation began to grow upon the sea of hui

upon the prisoner, who covered, cast his eyes
to the floor and hung his head. Mr. Scott re-
marked to the jury, if they failed to convict.

it would uot be long until our fair land would
be deluged in blood. The darkness of mid
night would be lighted up with our burning
buildings to see the massacred bodies of our

rise ere long upon the dead bodies of slave
holders with their threats cut. This eloquent
touch electrified the court room, and brought
down upon the prisoner such a torrent of
indignant looks that he seemed to sinl,

her young friend and said, "Mattie, come

Political.

The editor of the Taunton Gazette suggests
the name OF Caleb Gushing in connection with
the presidency of the Charleston convention.
Undoubtedly a filter representative of the ele-
ments to be gathered in that body could not
be tound-at least if no mischief-maker were
to suggest that he was once among the most
seditious OF New England abolitionists.
The evening edition of the Boston Courier
is to be suspended after Saturday next. In
taking this step, its conductors announce that
they are actuated in no small degree by the
extraordinary claims upon their attention
which must result from the coming political
canvass. Having nothing to do but to rise
with the sun and the lark the Courier can at
ford to take more benignant view of public
questions than it has during the last twelve
months.
The Washington correspondent of the Phil
adelphia North American writes that all the
recent developments go to show more conclu-
sively than ever that Mr.. Douglas will be put
aside by the combination of the whole south
ern vote against him. Georgia, North Caro-
lima, and Maryland, are claimed for him, but
in the face of their positive declarations TO the
contrary and in defiance of the well known
opinions of the delegates.
The cases of Isaac H. Shepard and Geo. P.
Burnham have been continued till the May
term. Gen. Butler, who is senior counsel for
both of them, has been retained in worse
case than either of them, and leaves for
Charlestown, South Carolina, in a few days to
attend to it.
Since tile excitement consequent upon the
expulsion of ant-slavery men from that state,
a republican club has been organized in Jack
son county, Kentucky, At a meeting held in
Mckee, on the Doth ut., three delegates, and
as many alternates, were appointed to repre-
sent that state at the Chicago convention.
Out of seven hundred and twenty su-
pervisors elected in various counties OF New
York state at the recent elections, five hun
bred and ten are republicans. This is large in
crease over the last year and the year before In
1859. out of seven hundred and thirty-three
supervisors, the republicans had four hundred
and seventy six. In 1858, out of six hundred

"THE KNIGHTS OF THE GOLDEN CIRCLE"

respondent of the Charleston Mercury, writing
from New Orleans, March 81, says
"There is trouble among the X. G. C.s.
The lodges were in session till late hour last

by the non-appearance OF Gen. Buckley, the
