Parson BRowNLow, sermonizing in his
last paper upon Democratic stealing"
says: For the life Of us we can't sec
that the stealing of negroes, or property,
by the Abolitionists, is any better, in a
moral point of view, than the stealing OF
larger amounts in money. by the Democ-
racy. All the negroes stolen in year,
by the Abolitionists, sold at high prices
in the South, would not amount to one
half of the amount Of money stolen from
our Government by the party in power
There is this redeeming trait in the Dem
ocratic ranks They steal in every Gus

Their forgeries and robberies are in all

pension claims, and Government works

A Peculiar Husband.

The case of the Hon. Hugh Rowley
against his wife, for perjury, has still
continued to create much merriment in
England. She obtained a divorce from
him on the ground of brutality. He
says she swore to untruths to obtain it,
and that he was not quite such brute as
she represented. He also objected that
she had a fault, which was that of" show
ing her legs" in crossing cutters and
getting in and out of carriages To re-
but this grave charge the lady's counsel
put in one of Sir Hugh's letters TO his
wife, in which he said +:
All, Tit, if you only would believe
| love, adore, and dote on you. you
would, am sure, try and love me in re-
turn a little. Do love me and you shall
not repent it. l love the very paper YOU
write on, my own treasure, and may
- blight me for the future if l do not
behave as an affectionate, doting and fond
husband. l know you will be careful in
getting out of the boat and railway not to
show your legs"
What laughter this last line created
But the letter concluded in this wise:
"Adieu, Tit, and believe in the unal-
terable devotion Of your sincere, atfec-
tionale, attached husband,
ii. RowLEY."
"P. Ste your trousers down. my
own darling Tit"

The Coming Fight.

A very large class of our fellow citi-

the great "mill" about 10 come off in
England between the two champions,
Heenan and Sayers. In fact, the fight
is now the main topic in all of the sport
ing houses and gambling saloons in the
city. Fast horses, and matters of that
order of importance, are scarcely spoken
of, so thoroughly engrossed in the fight
have sporting men become. The betting
here is most decidedly against Heenan,
Notwithstanding talk to the contrary. al
though rather improved in its first state
II was said in Frenchs yesterday, that
five thousand TO three thousand had been
laid on Sayers by two gentlemen living
up town; but nevertheless. Heenan' 5
friends are confident that he will win the
battle without extraordinary eXertions.
The next steamer will carry out John
Morrissey and James Hughes, who each
have large amount of money to invest.
Hughes is Heenan's particular friend,
and wagers heavily that the Benicia

Should he win, he is determined that

BY WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT


The stormy March has come at last,
With wind and cloud, and changing skies
hear the rushing of the blast,
That through the snowy valley flies.
All, passing few are they who speak,
Wild, stormy month, in praise of thee !;
Yet, though thy winds are loud and bleak
Thou art welcome month to me.
For thou, to northern lands again
The glad and glorious sun dost bring,
And thou hast Joined the gentle train
And wearst the gentle name of Spring.
And in thy reign of blast and storm,
Smiles many a long, bright, sunny day,
When the changed winds are soft and warm
And heavenput on the blue of May.
Then sing aloud the gushing rills,
And the full springs from frost set free,
That, brightly leaping down the hills,
Are setting out to meet the sea.
The years departing beauty hides
Of wintry storms the sul lien threat:
But in thy sternest frown abides
A look of kindly promise yet.
Thou bring'st the hope of those calm skies,
And that soft time of sunny showers,
When the wide bloom on earth that lies,
Seems for brighter world than ours.

time he made no further efforts, but TO

Whether he died natural death, COM
mitted suicide, or emigrated, | cannot
say. But the scamp that swindled him
out of his best and only suit, | saw a
twelve month after. He had grown con-
siderably, but was easily recognized by
his clothes fitting "too mooch, too mooch
intirely," as they say in Chatham street.
