AN AFFECTING INCIDENT.

mot many years since" says Frdzers
Maqa1ine, certain miners, working far
under ground, came upon the body of a
poor fellow who had persisted in the suffo-
eating pit 40 years before. Some chemical
agent to which the body had been subject
ed-an agent prepared in the laboratory
ofnature- effectually arrested the prog
ress of decay. They brought it up to the
surface; and for awhile, till it crumbled
away through exposure to the atmosphere,
it Law there, the image Of fine sturdy
Young man. No CONFUSION had passed
over the face in death-the features were
tranquil; the hair was black as JET. No one
recognized the face-a generation had grown
up since the day on which the minor went
down his shaft for the last time. But a
tottering old woman, who had hurried from
her cottage at hearing the news, came up,
and she knew again the face which through
all these years she had not quite forgot
The poor minor vas to have been her hus-
band the day after that on which he died.
They were rough people, Of course, who
were looking on; liberal education and
refined feelings are not deemed essential to
i man whose work is to get up Goals, or
even tin; but there were no dry eyes there
when the gray-headed old pilgrim cast her
self upon the youthful corpse, and poured
out to its deaf ear many words Of endear
ment unused for forty years. It was a
touching contrast--the one 50 old, the 9TH
er so Young. They had both been young
these long years ago; but time had gone
on with the living and stood still with the
dead"

GARIBALDI IN SOUTHERN ITALY.-The
progress Of Gaibaldi, in Southern Italy, is
So rapid and alarming to the despots Of Eu-
rope, that Austria has about given notice
that she will intervene IN behalf of the King
Of Naples. If so, a war is inevitable be-
tween her and Sardinia. The latter has
now grown SO strong, by annexation and
Italian unity, that it is probable that she
NAV be a match for Austria, without the
assistance of France. In any event, we do
not think that Garibaldi can be stopped
because the people are now thoroughly
with him, and he has at least the moral
support Of France. Austria had already
demanded explanations from Piedmont
concerning Garbaldi's letter to Victor En-
manuel, announcing projected attack On
Venice. There was great activity nantes
ted in the Austrian Marine Department.
A complete understanding between Austria
and Prussia is officially announced.
That the government Of Victor Emman-
uel is popular my be concluded from the
fact that Sandman loan closed with sub
seriptions to the amount Of three times th'
sum needed.

SARATOGA LIFE.-A fast water Gin place
IS Saratoga, aud fashionable. As an IN
stance of the way they do things there, as u
portraiture of life at the springs, we reprint
the following from an Albany paper:
Still another incident, more interesting
than the first. A gentleman ofwealth and
responsibility from New York city mar
ried man,--came to Saratoga with young
nan whom he introduced to his friends as
.sCharIey, bis nephew" Charley was an
amazing good looking young fellow, about
is years old, with black hair and rosy
cheeks, and dash Of froic about him that
won him troops of friends. Tile ladies
were all in love with the little fellow, while
the men were ready to die Of envy. lie
danced elegantly, and talked love with all
the ardor Of a passionate soul. When in
the society Of men he was more than ever
enterts ming. He spoke Of his conquests
and his victims with the utmost sang Jroid.
He had loves at Saratoga, and at Newport !;
on the peaks Of the White Mountains, and
away down among Il , plantations OF the
South. In fact crinoline be- raised to him
its shrina. Besides all this Charley was a
spendthrift He was prodigal Of his mon
ey, and wine in abundance was brought in
at his command. He insisted on payment
for it all, and could tip gobblets with the
best of them. But one day Charley drank
more than his usual allowance. He became
unusually communicative; he said strange
things, Tot the least strange Of which was
that he was a a0onaani Charley was cor
rect; he, she or it, was 4 woman, and the
mistress of the wealthy New York gentle
man, who furnished the s'spclter' with
which Charley was enjoying Saratoga life.
The discovery Of my nephew's' sex neces-
STATED a flight to other quarters, and i IS
more than likely that the old man and Char
ley are enjoying themselves at some other
watering place, where the same fnshaonabte
kind Of life is kept up.

WHEN PARs0N BROWNLOW WILL JOIN

to the latter stating that he had learned
with pleasure upon what che considered re-
i liable authority" that Mr.. Brownlow was
about to join the Democrats, and asked for
the probable date Of that interesting occur
renee. ldr. Brown,ow gave the date, or at
least data for the date as follows:

THAT GREAT srATasM.s.

The New York Times, not unfiequently
quoted as a Douglas organ, has a scorch-
ing review Of the assertion Of Douglas that
''any political creed which cannot be pro-
claimed in any portion Of our Ccnfederacy
must be essentially wrong Says the
Times.
"But it is still more amazing that any
one in this age Of the world, and in this
section Of the country, should dare to make
such a statement. Read it again: "Any
political creed which cannot be proclaimed
in any PORTION Of our Confederacy, must be
wrong" Such a political heresy Is entirely
out Of place in the free North; it belongs
to the land Of the bludgeon and the men.
We have never learned that the right or
wrong is to be tested by the numbers and
the brutality Of its opponents, and Of the
worst Of them. Such a doctrine would re.
duce all our political questions to mere
question oftact, as to the ignorance and sci
|fishness, the barbarisin Of the people in all
parts Of the Confederacy 1t would not
only be the warrant for any action, tie
most arbitrary, on the part Of a majority
lit would make even the viii Of q minor
ity supreme, and yet leave it to be itself
overthrow By any other minority, it would
overthrow all Courts, all laws all Constitu-
tons, and subject our actions, our opinions
and our consciences to the hap-hazard fury
Of a mob, or the despotism of few. 1t is
a doctrine whose falsity must be SO manifest
Ito our people as to render his assertion
hardly Injurious. We should have to give
up too much, to many memories and too
many hopes, too many principles and too
much experience, to adopt that position
We have more faith in Eternal Truth and
in human falIibility than that. We cannot
forget that though for time passion, and
selfishness, and ignorance may have combi-
ned with partial success to prevent free dis
,cussion at the South, yet the time is not
long gone by whom those same doctrines,
whose violent suppression there Judge
Douglas points to without a rebuke, and
even seeks to draw his own advantage from
it; when those same doctrines rang from
the bps Of the South's noblest sons. We
cannot shut cur hearts to the hope Of near
day when the things that have
been shall be again, and the South shall
not fear to discuss her own interests, and
listen to arguments on the Ole side as well
as on the other"
1t cannot be too steadfastly kept in mind
that the man who entertains this most mar
row, bigoted, destructive and false idea,
aims to be President and manage and di-
rect the destinies Of the Great Republic.
TO give him such power would be about as
discreet as to send a monkey with light
ed match in to a powder-house.

SLAVERY AND THE CHURcH.-Is it not

of Christianity, 1860 years after the death
Of Christ, crime executed by the Divine
law under the penalty of death, along with
that OF murder, should have been rescued
from that criminal fellowship and revived

more malignant and extraordinary halu-
eination? The church in which il contin-
iues remains in the favor Of God A
crime gibbeted by the law Of God is taken
by Christian surgeons from the gallows, is
Iexhumed by gospel resurrectionists, galyan-
ised into hideous life, and set among liy-
mo guests at the sacramental feast as a suit
able companion with faith, hope and charity.
And those who undertake to thrust the torch
of Gods flaming law within the skeleton,
and 10 drag it forth beneath the condenna-
ton Of the Gospel, are themselves assaulted
