A TRIPOD OF DIFFIcULTIEs.-An account is
given of tripod of difficulties which occurred
lately at the office of the Deputy Superintendent
of Police in the city of New York. 1t seems
that scoundrel, formerly a member of the
police, a married man, deceived a young girl,
assuming for the accession the name of one of
the detectives. Having failed in his attentions
to his victim of late the girl called at the Depu-
tvs Office to see her swain she was introduced
to the genuine owner ofthat name, the deception
was discovered and scene enacted. The de-
tective, whose name had been borrowed, went
with the young woman to the house of the man
who had deceived her, and revealed all to his
wife. Another scene was the result. But the
most strikingly effective tablaux occurred when
the vagabond Lothario came home to tea, and
encountered his injured wife, the deceived young
girl, and the wronged detective. If the way of
the transgressor was not hard on this occasion,
it was because he was too great scoundrel to
have soft place about him, which was likely
the case.

A CONVERTED ABoLrIoNIsr.-Th New Lisbon
(Ohio) Patriot says
Mr.. Joshua Coppie Quaker gentleman OF
Butler township, in this county, has always
been warm Abolitionst He is an uncle of
Edward Coppie, who was hung for his compile
ity..with old John Brown, and went on to Yir-
ginia for the purpose of bringing home the re-
mains of his nephew for interment. On his way
home he was detained at Wellsville for a couple
OF hours, and there had conversation with Mr.
D. 7. Lawson, in which he said, :" / come home
a converted man. The Virginians are as kind
hearted and Christian people as ever was
among. Our anti-savery agitation at the North
is all wrong. lam satisfied it has put back the
cause of the slave, and l am going home to do
what can to put it down, and hope thee will
do the same. ] am satisfied all Virginia wants
is Christian treatment, and at the proper time
she will do more for the slave than we ever
cam Mr.. Coppie never before had opened his
eyes to the disastrous consequences of northern
fanaticism, but now having learned them, like
an honest man, be will endeavor to put down
agitation. There are great many people of the
same class, and when they get fairly to under
stand where they are drifting, they will cut
loose from the rampant Aboitionists, and set to
work to create a healthy conservatism.

AboitiOnism---R epublica nism.

We know of a small number of Republicans,
and, by the way, very clever fellows person
ally-who deny that the Republican party is
at all aboltionized. They even deny that the
Republican party has taken ground against the
admission of any more Slave States, but claim
shat they are in favor of popular sovereignty
Vow we ask them if their views be true, to ex-
plain the following portion of the proceedings
of the U. S. Senate on the goth of March last:
Mr.. Sumner presented a memorial of Samuel
May, distinguished and venerable merchant
of Boston, and 400 other citizens of Boston,
praying for the repeal of The fugitive slave law
Of 1850, the abjuraton of slavery in the District
of Columbia, the prohibition of the Interstate
slave trade, and the passage of resolution
pledging Congress against the admission of any
more slave States into the Union, or the acqu-
sition of any slave territory or employment of
any slaves by government contractors, officers
and Department of the Federal Government
He moved its reference TO the Judiciary Com
mittee.
Mr.. Davis moved that it lie on the table
Carried, yeas so, nays II.
Here we find all the Republicans in the Uni
ted States Senate on that day voting in effect
for just those things which the Republicans
have been fighting for, for years. The fact is,
eastern Repulicanism and AboIitionism is fast
becoming synonymous. This is so apparent
that it will shortly be useless to deny it, and
such Aboltionists hereabouts as are hiding their
true sentiments under the name of Republican
ism will be compelled TO uncloak and stand forth
in their true coors

EXTRAORDINARY DISCOVERIES IN THE EAST
DR.. Graham, who was sent by the British Gov
eminent to explore the great desert on the
eastward of Jordan, has lately returned and re-
ported the most extraordinary discoveries. He
lately read paper before the Royal Asiatic So

Of the district Of Hanran, in region unvisited
before by any European traveller, are five an

had just left them-the houses retaining the
massive stone doors which are a characteristic

cities is remarkable for large building like a
castle, built of white stone beautifully cut
Further eastward other places are found where
every stone was covered with Inscriptions in an
unknown character, bearing some apparent
likeness to the Greek alphabet, but probably
referable to the ancient Hamyaritic alphabet,
formerly in use in Southern Arabia. Copies and
impressions ofseveral inscriptions are presented,
and WILL no doubt, engage the attention of orr
entalists.
We saw, some few weeks ago, a letter from
Lady Franklin to a friend in New York, in
which she related very interesting conversa-

A NOVELTY FOR SNoKERs-One of the novel

invention designed for the use of smokers
This is small apparatus for the manufacture of
paper cigarettes, by means of which a smoker
may make his own cigars of such tobacco as he
chooses. 1t consists of a small wooden mould,
within which is placed a thin paper tube, which
is quickly rammed full of tobacco by means of a
little funnel and hammer inserted at the large
end. The cigar is then pushed out complete
and ready for smoking The papers, which are
very thin and light and are colored to resemble
common cigars, accompany the apparatus in
neat little packages. To those who dislike the
strong flavor of clay pipes and bogus meer-
ohaums, well the bad tobacco used in the
manufactured cigars, the novelty will be accept

possession of large estate left to him under
peculiar circumstances. Some years ago, n
beautiful Jewess became enamored of him at

and on her death bed recently, she bequeathed
to him her entire estate. Another story is, that
