THE RIVAL QUEENS OF NAPLEs-A Vio-
lent Quarrel Between WomeB.--It is not gen.
orally known that the immediate cause of
the departure Of the ex-Queen from Naples
proceeded from nothing less than a violent
dispute and personal alteration with the
reigning Queen. The latter is very sensitive
and very frank the former is very proud
and Jesuitical. One day, after the family
council had received unpleasant accounts Of
the state of affairs, the young Queen could
not restrain her feelings, but proceeded to
the apartment of the Queen Dowager, and
after making her acquainted with the bad
news just received, she told her that the
throne of Naples was lost forever, and that
she the ex-Queen, might consider herself
the cause of the ruin of the family, owing to
the bad advice and example which she had
always offered to the late King, upon which
the ex-Queen, without uttering a single
word, rose up from her chair, and report
says, they came to blows. At all events, the
rupture is so decided that reconciliation is
declared to be impossible.

AMUSING JOKE FROM HAYTI.-It is rumored

has recently arrived at Port-au-Prince, and
presented to the Haytian Government a
plan for the overthrow of slavery in the
United States. He is said to have promised

would furnish sufficient money to equip
them and keep them in the field for six
months and to have declared that this num-
Der would be sufficient, with the accessions
of which they are sure in their progress
through the Southern States, to liberate
every slave within the period mentioned.

AN INEBRIATED MoNoMANIAC DAsHEs Our
CHILDs BRAINs.--The other evening the
most horrible tragedy ever our duty to re-
cord, occurred at Richfeld Springs, N. Y.
The perpetrator was under the influence of
BlaRid-d-potls, and had been so violent
threatening to kill some one-that the neigh
bors complained, and he was taken in Gus
tody by the overseer of the poor, a Mr.. Ames,
who, for some unaceountable reason, took
the man to his own home.- Mr.. Ames had
visiting him daughter and infant child
only year old, who, with its mother, was
left alone for short time in the same room
with tho maniac. The latter, in moment
of sanity, requested of the mother the priv
ilege Of holding her infant. She was dis
trustfGl of him, but was finally induced to
intrust him with the child. No sooner did
the crazy man become possessed Of the child,
than, grasping it with one hand in its
mouth, he dashed its brains out upon the
floor. 1t was done in an instant, the unfor-
tunate mother being in the meanwhile trans
fixed with horror. She very soon, however,
found voice and screamed murder, which
greatly enraged the monster, who, had not
help quickly arrived, would, no doubt, have
perpetrated double murder.

CAUSE OF THE PoTAToE-RoT.-J.Q Q. Rum
ball, an English chemist, states that the
proximate cause of the potatoe-rot is "elec--
tricity acting on the moist tubers, enfeebled
by many years of too rich cultivation" and
that it generally shows itself in the leaves
three days after a thunderstorm, although
it sometimes occurs in moist muggy
on Mr.. Lawe's farm at Rothamsted, which
seemed to verify this opinion. He exposed
some tubers in healthy plants, galvanized
some and electrified others, and in every
case the disease was produced, while the
remaining tubers continued sound.

A Cry VISITED BY SHOWER OF FLIEs.-
Pittsburg was visited, the other evening, by
a shower of flies which filled the air like
snow-fakes for nearly an hour, to the in
finite amusement of hundreds of children,
who seemed to enjoy themselves hugely in
chasing and capturing them. The wings of
the insects were white, and their bodies,
which were quite long, of a light flesh color.
They actually darkened the air in the neigh
bor6ood of the river, from which it is be-
heved they were carried off by brisk breeze
which continued to blow toward the city,

AMoDIo AS 'FALsTAFT" IN A CoNCRRT.-A
Montreal paper has the following account of
the operatic part of the concert given in
honor of the Prince of Wales, who, it ap-
pears, left the hall Immediately after the per-
formance Of the cantata had been concluded,
and without hearing any of the Italian
artists: .... l.
The Princes retirement was the signal for
great many of the audience to leave also,
and the continual shifting of places and other
signs of WEAKNESS interrupted, to some ex-
tent, the pleasure of large number of per-
sons who were able to enjoy the beautiful
performances of the Strakosches, Patti,
-Barilli, Susini and Amodio. A good deal of
amusement was created by the appearance of
the latter gentleman, whose size might cause
him to be ranked as lineal descendant of
Daniel Lambert, and the audience, to whom
he was stranger, and who were not pre-
pared for such an apparition, could not re-
strain movement of visibility, which the
Signor, with that good nature which usually
belongs to persons of his figure, seemed to
recognise and to receive in perfect good part

ward the Pope's loan, declared that it would
not subscribe, being ready, however, to con-
tribute largely to ST. Peters pence as soon al
the Pope should resign his temporal PoiOsr.

ACTION IN GERMANY AGAINST GAMBLING
The merchants at Frankfort, Germany, are
at present signing a declaration by which
they denounce public gaming-houses, and
bind themselves to dismiss any of their
clerks who may play therein; also not to
employ any one who may have been dis
charged for that offense. The reason why
they have adopted this measure is, that q
railway is about to be opened, which will
place Homburg within twenty minutes Of

ances that the deck would carry us all
ashore. at length-surely not more thdo
fifteen minutes from the first dIdrn,-the ELgin
began to reel and settle as if for the final
plunge. A few loud screams arose, and a
few frantic passengers jumped overheard in
hurry to meet their fate, Just at thu mo-
ment when the boat went down sea struck
her upper works. and they parted from the
hull and hoated off in several pieces. This
was trying moment. The shock and the
force of the waves swept off several of our
number, but the night was dark, and as all
lights were soon gone, we could not see who
was yet safe, and who was gone.
found myself on piece of the wreck,
perhaps fifteen by thirty-a portion of the
upper deck the boards and ribs, or carlins
to which they were nailed. In company
with me were from twenty-five TO twenty
eight persons, and we had nothing to do but
suffer ourselves to be hoated toward shore.
Among the pieces of wreck we found few
cabin doors. These we secured, and setting
them and our pieces of plank upon an end,
broadside to the wind, made them serve as
sails.
Soon after setting out on our perilous jour-
ney we discovered another piece of the
deck, more deeply loaded than ours. Capt.
Wilson was on it, with two or three others.
He came to our float, and continued with us,
keeping US in heart by his words of good
cheer. After daylight he busted himself in
providing for the general safety, by fasten-
ing loops to the carlins, by which we might
hang on when we came to the surf
There were with us four or five women.
One of these had child about six months
old, for the safety of which the Captain was
exceedingly solcitous. He held it when moi
otherwise employed. He had given it up but
a moment, to attend to some matter, when 6
wave swept it out of the arms of him tC
whom he handed it, and it was gone. The
child and man and woman were all VIZ
lost. We spent the night in comparative
comfort. The storm was severe, but we die
