An Australian Dinner Pnrt,.

The public as we'll as private dinner par
ties became too much for me. They some
times resembled what one reads of the
convivialities, after days hunting among
the Irish squirearchy ofa century ago. On
one occasion, when the mirth was growing
fast and furious" being inspired by ban
tering Joke on the feather-bed horsemen OF
"Charing Cross" followed by tri1ing bet,
bent the steel poker by a blow upon my arm,
which so enchanted stalwart squatter at
my side, who had never seen the feat before,
that he snatched the poker out of my hand,
and without considering what muscle he
should present, he struck his arm so violent
a blow that the poker instantly broke, and
the upper part flying across the table cut of
the heads Of two decanters, and knocked over
a branched candlestick. The delight and
excitement which ensued exceeded all
bounds.
The door was locked, the table was jumped
upon, and down it went with all upon it in
rolling smash. Single combats took place
with mahogany chairs, the broken arms and
legs of which flew about in all directions.
While was trying to force open the door,
a gentleman came with the steel fender in
his hands to demolish the window, and his
first blow not only smashed the glass, but
half the framework. / Immediately leaped
out on the yerandah. made my way home
ward over Princes Bridge, which seemed 80
desolate and silent, and thence up the rising
ground, broken by great struggling water
course, till regained my lonely tent, where
| found my two dogs standing in the moon
light, anxiously awaiting my return.-Aus-

The Increase and soureos ofsllver.
The New York Independent says in its last

A The discovery ofthe continent Of America
led 70 that Of the great silver mines Of Mexico
and Peru, which threw into shade all the
European silver mines, and supplied the
world with silver to such an extent as 10
diminish its relative value more than one
half.
, Mexico Is still the chief source Of supply Of
silver for the worlds use; but the discoveries
Of goldin California and Australia have led to
the substitution Of gold for silver in the cur
rency Of many countries, including our own.
France has, IN addition to England and the
United States, practically demonetizcd silver,
using II only in payment Of very small sums,
so that the decrease in the production Of late
years has been in some degree compensated
by the decrease in the demand, owing to the
preference given to gold for currency.
There is, however, one important excep-
tion--the East still the East has from time
immemorial used silver only as money in all
ordinary payments. The process still goes
on. India and China receive silver in large
proportion for their productions, giving back
none. What has the East done with all the
silver IL has received from Europe and
America3 There must be boards Of II some
where. The British Government in India
used silver rs currency exclusively, the
revenues of the state being all payable in
silver. Holland alone Of the European
countries makes use of silver in the same
way. The well-known absence Of security
for property in the East accounts for the dis
appearance Of silver in India, in those parts
not subject TO British rule, and in all China.
IL was concealed for safe keeping; and what
was concealed was often lost. The shipments
to India and China are on the increase.
Years ago when the tea imported into this
country was entered at Boston, whence
ships were sent to China, silver dollers were
collected and exported to exchange for tea
direct. Now il is more economical to settle
by exchange on London for our tea imports,
mostly received at New York; but the same
result obtains, for China requires still
dollars for her teas and silks and only few
wanted and shipped is obtained in London,
where IL is sent chiefly from Mexico and
partly from the Continent Of Europe in ex-
change fOr gold,

An Execution in nAlabama-Sanguinary Re-
creations on the Occo sion.

James Aiken, found guilty of the murder
of Mike Hibbetts, suffered the extreme PEN
atty Of the law at Kingston, on Friday. A
large number of people assembled to witness
the horrible spectacle of his execution, and
several fights ensued, which were rather
serious in their character. Three brothers
by the name ofThacker assaulted and severe
ly--perhaps mortally--wounded man by the
name of Wainwright, who resides near that
village. he was stabbed with knife several
times in the hip and the shoulder, and his life
is despaired of byhis attending physician AT
ter this fracas, two or three others occurred,
which were not so serious in their nature
Another innocent party unfortunately, in
attempting to restore peace, was stabbed with
a knife, although not dangerously.
Judging from the particulars we have
gathered, says the Montgomery Advertiser: it
must have been a desperate melee. There
were a large number of participants, and
doubtless many a man went to his home,
sadly out Of joint" These difficulties did
not grow out of anything connected with
the hanging of Aiken; but it was doubtless
Thoughts fitting time for the settlement OF
old fueds, and hence the disturbance.

Tho Act ofLivins on One's Self

The Paris correspondent of the New York
Times remarks:
Among the curious documents lately pre-
sented TO the Academy Of Medicine, under
the head of new inventions, was one with
the following title: Der Autophdgs Spon-
tanes ct Artifcieile. What would the read
er suppose lay hidden under this title2
Nothing less than an exposition of the
manner TO live on ones SELF or, in other
words, cannibalism reduced to civilized and
humanitary institution The world has
already learned how to live upon one an
other; let us see how NJ. Anselmier, the
author of the treatise in question, proposes
that man should live of his proper self.
he supposes that a man b lost at sea in a
boat, and without provisions, and he then, in
his argument, starts from the principle that
the body deprived of ailments, nourishes
itself rs long as it can at the expense of its
proper substance. In proportion as this sub
stance diminishes, the interior temperature
of the body diminishes until death ensues.
He proposes to combat the consequences of
inanition by practicing light bleedings from
the body, and drinking the blood. he tried
the experiment on two animals of the same
age, and the same size and condition. He
deprived them both of all nourishment; the
one died in the usual period from starvation;
the other, which he bled and caused to drink
his own blood, lived several days longer than
the first. From this, NJ Anselmier draws the
conclusion that the system would be useful
in preserving the lives Of shipwrecked indi-
viduals, to such point as to increase i'm
mensely the chances of being saved. lI.H

Ru,r,o, an N,,ure. man and Mind.

AmNNHNA " NNaAMNNg AtAeAa aAt NAA@-~-~
Ralph Waldo Emerson read a remarkable
essay. In Roaton, recently, upon the rrelated-
ness of man TO nature, and the insensibility
Of mankind 70 fhe glorions Heritage they
possess. In this world, the greatest wonder,
to every thoughtful person, is that he is here.
Il has been said that we're Il not for the
phenomena Of sleep, we should oil become
atheists as by the temporary suspension Of
our own will we are reminded of the exist
ence Of supreme viii. Everthing in nature
Is perfect, and the whole force Of noture
seems to be directed TO every single object.
The history of a single grain Of sand con-
tains the chronicle Of the world. Man leans
downward upon every animal, even TO the low
est forms of creation, while each species of
animal life gravitates upward to man. So
far as humanity Is concerned, the earth itself
is o tomb, in which petrified races, converted
into statues of stone, are their own monu-
ment. L.f.t l..i
It is impossible to conceive the littleness
Of man as compared with infinite space, yet
how splendid is the furniture Of his mind.
BY astronomy worlds aud systems are
weighed, but what puny thing is the astron-
omer. Men are endowed with the diving
bell of memory, to explore the farthest re-
cesses of knowledge; with the balloon of
fancy, 10 soar into the empyrean; but most
mems memory yconsists Of arecordof thrilling
incidents--on such day paid note, or the
COW calved, or l cut my finger--and the fancy
gropes amid the most groveling object. Life
becomes a mere pleasure hunt, men are shop
worn, and all resistance is resolved into a
struggle to put something between the upper
and lower mandibles. And this is a creation
where every thing is attuned to the incest
harmony. The race has not yet taken pos
session Of its own. Mankind is only afound-
ling at the gates of Gods great temple.

l remark upon the nature Of this peace that
Il is profound aHdreaL. "The peace Of God"
saith an apostle, "that passeth all understand
ing" This peace not only fills all the senses
to the brim, till every power is satiated
with delight, but the understanding which
can take in the whole world, and understand
many things which are not within the range
of vision, even as the understanding can not
take in the length and the breadth of this
peace. And not only will the understanding
fail to compass it, but all understanding is
outdone. When our judgement hath ex-
erted itself TO the utmost, IL can not compre-
hend the nights and depths of this profound
peace. Have you ever imagined what must
be the stiffness of the caverns in the depth of
the seas, thousand fathoms beneath the
bosom of the foods where the mariners
bones lie undisturbed, where pearls are born,
and corals that never see the light where the
long lost gold and silver of the merchants lie
sprinkled on the sandy hoor-down in the
rock caves, and the silent palaces of darkness
where waves dash not, and the 'intruding
foot Of the diver hath never trodden1 So
clear, so calm is the peace of God, the placid
rest of the assured believer. Or lift up your
eyes to the stars. Have You ever dreamed a
sweet dream of quietude Of those orbs2 Let
us mount beyond the realm of noise and riot
Let us tread the noiselcss highway Of the
silent orbs. The thunders are far below u.s.
the confused tumult of the crowd defiles not
the sanctity of this wondrous quiet. See
how the stars sleep on their golden couches
or only open their bright eyes to keep watch
upon that stormless sea of ether, and guard
the solemn boundaries of the reign of peace.
Such is the peace and calm that reigns in the
Christians bosom. Sweet calm, one calls
it; Perfect peace David styles it; another
calls it 'Great peace.p "Great peace have
all they that love thy law, and nothing shall
offend them.p Last year--I tell you now a
secret of my own heart--I had one text
which thrust itself upon my recollection
many times n day. dreamed of it when /
slept; when awoke it went with me, and | |
verified it, and reioiced in it: "His soul shall |
dwell at ease" 1t is my promise now. |
There is such an ease-quite consistent with |
labor, with agony for the souls of men, with
an earnest desire for yet greater attainments
in Divine life; there is such an ease-it is not
to be gained by all the appliances of luxury,
by all the aggrandizement Of wealth-an ease
in which mot n wave of trouble rolls across
the peaceful breast but all is calm, and all
is clear, and all is joy and love. May we
evermore dwell in that serene atmosphere
and never lose our hold ofthis peace.-Spur-

Toll In the North-Comparison Between
Free and Slave Labor.

Toll In the North-COmparisOn Between
Free and Slave Labor.
The Concord IN. H.) Standard has the fol-
lowing:
Many tender-hearted, fanatical Abolition
lists, who have Travelled South, have been
shocked, or pretended TO be, at the sight of
female slaves working very lazily in the
corn and cotton fields of that section of the
Union. They think nothing AT all of white
females laboring in the fields in the North.
In fact they never take notice of such
scenes. But we have seen them often. Dur
ing the past summer we have witnessed the
following scenes in New Hampshire, and in
one of its wealthiest and most enlightened
counties; We have seen white mother
holding helpless infant in her arms while
she was loading load of hay, her husband
pitching the hay on the cart, and the wo-
man, with the child in her arms, trampling
it down. Next we saw an aged white man.
very near seventy years old, bent over with
infrmity and decrepitude, with one arm
amputated to the very shoulder, pitching
bundles of wheat on cart, while his wife,
nearly as old, was on the cart catching the
bundles, placing them properly, and tramp
ling them down. We have been much in
the South, but we never saw scene so
touching among the slaves. There such
old, decrepid people among the slaves are
relieved from labor, or put to light and easy
tasks. The truth is, poor humanity has
sad destiny every where, and the white
mans destiny is fully as hard as that of the
black man.
