A KEEN REroRT-When "Jcss;o Fremont

A KEEN REroRr.-When "Jcsso Fremont the peoples "Jessie"-wcnt on to Washington to ferret out if possible the source of that bitter, sneak king hostility which was being pursued to-. wards her husband, she very naturally came into collision with the Blair family. At one inter- view with the President, Mir. Blair, ST., father of the r. M. General and Frank Blair was present, when the following sharp as briar conversation occurred,
 Bair.-" Mrs Fremont allow me to say to you that in my judgment, Madame, your proper place is at the head of your husbands household in St. Louis, and this intermeddling with affairs of the State, to say tie least of it, is very bad taste on your part. And, in conclusion, wish you to understand that here is where we make mon and unmake them.'
 To which beautiful specimen of egotisn and impotence Jessie" drawing herself up to her full height, the old Benton blood tingling through her veins replied as follows:
 Mr. Blair, permit me to say to you that, have seen some men of yon~ ma;i1g, a'tl1 Hey gre hle best you do, dtlcise you to qs>t tae business.

The lady of the house, (she being the only one present, and rightly judging his errand ] when she perceived him approaching, seized the Bible. and when he enterei was to all intents engaged in perusing the volume. He noticed, reversed or, in other words, upside down. After what she was reading.

 It is very ediIying to read about the suffering and death of Christ said the minister.
 And so that good man is dead-is he ? asked the nlatron. evidently getting interested.
 Certainly he is.'
 Well, that's just the way. I've been at John long time to take the newspapers, but he won t. Everybody in the world might die and we not get to hear a bit bout it, said the woman in a rapid tone.
 An, woman, you are in the dark said the preacher with elongated face.
 Yes, know we are. I've been at John a long time to put a window in the fur eend of the house, but he won't do that either

KENTUCKY BEAUTY AT TEE CAFiToL.-A
large party of ladies from EddyvilIe and
Princeton. KY. accompanied by number of
gentlemen, came up to the city on the My
duke Monday evening on a pleasure excur-
sion. They visited the Capitol yesterday
morning, and looked in upon the law-making
machinery of the State. They spent ten or
fifteen minutes in the gallery of the Sonata
1t i not an uncommon thing for the ladies
to look down from the galleries upon the de-
alterations of that august body; but there
were some of the fairest types of Kentucky
beauty in this party, and their presence shed
a soft and delicious light over the assembly
that was seen and felt by all, save the unfor-
tunate Senators whose desks happened to be
Immediately under that part of the gallery
occupied BY this troop of fairies from the
Dark and Bloody Ground. They too felt the
spell of sweet presence, and saw the eihe-
real radiance which pervaded the chamber.
bat could not see the source whence the
spell and the radiance emanated. There
were eyes there black as midnight and eyes
"darkly, deeply, beautifully blue"-who
could stand unmoved beneath their glanced
The urbane and handsome Speaker subdued
the dignity of his position with gentle
smile; the gentleman who was discussing an
amendment to the Convention Bill suffered
his thoughts to turn from the barren paths
of logic and augmentation and wander off
20 the slumbering sea upon whose bosom re-
pose the green isles OF poetry and fancy; the
Reporter OF the BannT adjusted his cravat
and moustaches in pocket mirror, while the
Reporter OF the DeHocTat ran his fingers
through his hair and Strengthened up the
side OF his collar that had fallen a victim to

informed, alone remained unmoved. Calm.

peared, and the Senate settled down to

Alas and aIaek a day!

We are in the midst of perilous times!
South Carolina, Florida, Alabama, and Mis-
sissippi have put their feet upon the cOnsti-
ago in the nostrils of the Carolina chivalry,
and declared their intention to set up shop
on their own account! Before the moon
which showed her horns Saturday night fills
them. Georgia, Louisiana and Texas will fol-
low their example. What, on what must Ten.
Kentucky, may set up for themselves too,
and then oh, what then? If Tennessee don't
do the same thing, will she not be hemmed
in, on all sides, and without the means of get
ting her products TO market? Will not the Cum
berland, and the Tennessee, and the Ohio, aud
the Mississippi rivers be dried up and mary
boat ever plough their waters again freight
ed with the products of our teemlng soil, our
Jacks and our jennies. Will not the iron
rails upon which the iron horse goes a cavort-
ing, dragging along after him long trains of
loaded cars North and South, be melted up,
and moulded into cannon balls to batter
down our cities, or at any rate to keep US and
our loaded cars at home! And these things
being so, without the labor of the negro in
States South of US, will not our farmers, our
mechanics, our merchants, our doctors, our
lawyers, soon be reduced to starvation? Yes
stree, without cotton pies, and rice pud-
dings, how could they escape starvation? 1t
is the money paid for cotton, that buys all we
produce, and if Tennessee does not go out of
the Union, secede, vamose the ranch, no
more cotton will be raised; no more money
paid for the staple, down South, and we shall
not be able to dispose of anything we pro-
duce or sell. Terrible thought! But terri
bier still, without cotton we should be in a
worse condition than the beggars of Italy!
Shades of the mighty dead, preserve Us from
such fatel Oh, Tennessee, will you permit
Yourselves to be ''cribbed, cOfined and con-
fined" and thus dry up your rivers. tear up
your railroads, stop the production of cotton
in the South and beggar our wives. our
children, our mechanics, our lawyers, and
our dear DOCTORS Oh, it is too horrible to
think Of Do not do it,
