THE SIAMEsE TWINS SURPAssED.-At Ver-
sailles an extraordinary birth has just taken
place. A woman named Pons, wife of man
employed on the Western railway, living at
"a Rue de Chantlers, brought into the world
two female children joined together by the
head, the bone of the forehead of one being
fastened, for a length of about 81 inches, in
the side of the skull of the other. The
consequence is, that when one is seen in the
face the profile of the other is presented.
The two children, with the exception of this
singularity, are perfectly we'll formed, and as
they do not cry or perform their animal
functions at the same time, it appears that
though their skulls are joined, they have two
distinct brains. The children have been
baptized by the names of Olympic and Therese,
and are in good health.

WHY THE CANNON VENT Is CLOSED AFTER A
DIscHARGE.-There are always left in can
non, after discharge, pieces of the cartridge
bag on fire, and if the sponge is passed down
the bore without closing the vent, draft of
air is created which fans the flame; but if
the vent be closed, the smoke is compressed
around the burning cloths and the fire is
smothered. Sometimes, when firing in the
dark, a man cannot find the vent until the
sponge is put in /; then the fame will stream
from the vent, as if the gun was quite full

INFLUENCE or NEwsPAPBRs.-Smalli is the
sum that is required to patronize news
paper, and amply rewarded is its patron, |
care not how humble or unpretending the
gazette which lie takes. 1t is next to i'm
possible to fill sheet with printed matter
without putting into it something that is
worth the subscription price. Every parent
whose son is away from home at school,
should supply him with newspapers. Iwell

was between those of my schoolmates who

papers. Other things equal, the first were
always superior to the last in debate, COM

Charles Dickens.

Twenty years ago, when Charles Dickens
was in the hight of his popularity, his warm
friend Talfourd, an able writer and critic, as
well as good lawyer, frankly told him that
he would be rich man. as well as better
author, by retreating from the entanglements
and expenses of a London life. He suggested
a residence-such as Dickens now has at
Gad's Hill-within convenient distance of
London. This would avoid Sunday dinner
parties, and the extravagances, dissipations
and temptations of Regents Park career,
and alsu give him more leisure to think and
clearer head to think with. But Mrs.
Dickens had a great share of her scx's vanity
at that time, and Dickens parasites, who en-
joyed his hospitality, urged him to remain
in London-a fashionable as well as q lit.
erary man.
A friend of Dickens, who knew him from
childhood, and dearly loves him to this hour,
lately wrote to US thus There does not
live larger-hearted or better-minded man
than Dickens. He is liberal to fault. He
allowed his wife's relations to hang upon
him, to infest his house, and to drain his
purse, for years. The great fault of his
character is ostentation. With all his sa-
gacity, Dickens is entirely afraid Of being
sighted. He never seems to be at ease, not
even in his own house. His restless eve
wanders like comet in a cage, beating the
bars Of his eyelashes to escape. He has
always seemed to us as if he had something
on his mind as we'll as in it, He danced the
tght-rope OF display for years, just managing
to keep out of the claws of the bailiffs. He
has now carried out the plan suggested to
him by Talfourd, and also by Lord Jeffrey,
and lives out of London, but near enough to
enjoy it when he pleases.
'sWhat has become of all his money is
mystery to myself and others. His reign
has lasted full twenty-five years, and am
sure that under estimate his income at an
average of $4,000 year. Here is a gross
amount Of 6200, ,000-equal to one million
of your American dollars. Very little has
Dickens to show for all this. He is COM
PEELED to go back to his readings, which he
now hates. and commenced his season on
the first Monday in March by reading his
Christmas Carol, and the Boots of the Holly
Tree Inn, at St. James Hall, Piccadilly. A
more truly genial man than Dickens does
not live. He likes to see others enjoy them
selves, while Thackeray seems to care only
for enjoying himself. One constantly hears
of kind actions done by Dickens never of
Thackeray in that way. In possession of a
good heart, as well as vast genius, think
that Dickens very much resembles Walter
Scott DR.. Mackenzie.

QUEER IDEA OF EXCEss-Two young men,
lately, in New York, undertook to see which
one possessed the greatest internal capacity,
and, to test the matter, agreed to eat raw
clans, each to eat until one could hold no
more. The victor ate one hundred and
sixty; the vanquished hero gagging at the
one hundred and forty ninth clam, when he
gave up the contest, remarking that he could
eat more, bnt ssdid not want to make a hog
of himself"

Creditors never annoy a man so long as he
is getting up in the world. A man of wealth
only pays his butcher once year. Let bad
luck overtake him and his meat bill will
come in every morning as regularly as break
fast and hungry children. We say never
plead guilty of poverty. So far as this
world is concerned, you had better admit you
are a scoundrel

CHEAP TRAvELING.-Jas. McCue has, at
last, started his line of stages to Marysville-
the first coach, a first rate one, having COM
menced its regular trips yesterday morning,
under the guidance of that king of whips
and clever drivers, George Green. The fare
by this line is put down as low as it is possi-
;ble for a line to take passengers and live, and
we therefore hope that the travelling public
will not be lured away by any momentary re-
'duction of prices to below living figure, by
any other concern, and thus help to crush
the only line which promises to run steadily
at moderate prices. A man can now, thanks
to the enterprise of Capt Kidd, Jas. McCue,
and Mr. Jeffries. of Orleans Flat go from the
latter place to San Francisco for So, whereas,
under the old arrangement, the same trip
could not be performed for less that $2l-
making a difference of $26 for the voyage
from Orleans Flat to San Francisco and back.
This difference can be maintained if the peo-
pie have the good sense to patronize those
whose enterprise has brought about these
reasonable rates of trayel.-Transcript OF

By the code Of morals which govern the
secession traitors and rebels every act Of tho
general government since they raised the
black flag of rebellion, though designed ex-
pressly for selEdefense and rendered necessa-
~ for selfpreservation, is an outrage upon
the South. On the contrary, their own con-
spiracy to overthrow the government, their
seizure of the government forts their thefts
of the public property, their attacks upon
government vessels, in no cause Of Ofense to
the friends of the Union. The position oc-
cupisd by these braggarts and traitors, is
thus epitomized by the Washington Star;
The seceders marched in armed bodies, and
compelled the guards of the United States
forts and arsenal to surrender them; bat Il
seas not pa.
With arms in THEN hands they captured
millions Of dollars worth Of cannon, small
arms and munitions Of war, belonging to

David Tod an tho War.

The Youngstown Register, in giving an
account of a war meeting held in that place,
says;
Hon. David Tod addressed the meeting in
q speech replete with eloquent thought and
patriotic devotion to the common country
he thought the present no time to indulge
in party reerimination. Our country, flag
and fresides are in peril. Political organi-
cations should be lost sight Of before the fact
that the Government was menaced by an en-
envy pledged to disrupt It's peace, seize upon
the federal capital and dishonor our national
ensign. The President has done only what
his oath required Of him, and It is the duty
of the people TO sustain him when be calls
for support as readily as though Andrew
jackson had made the demand. He hoped
that Mahoning county would not be found
backward In this appeal for men and means
to sustain the Executive in this hour Of peril

he winawih no prize. Just SO with our

borne with meekness the assaults of those
who nov e6meagainst Us under a hostile fag,
that it astouisbes even ourselves that We re-
sent ct last; but we have something more to
do than to stand upon the defensive. We
have the advantage in point Of men and
money; why, then, should we be calculating
only how best to repel the advances of the
enemy? The war has opened, and now the
victory belongs to the side which displays
the best engineering, which offers the most
force, and which best knows how to employ

i've, or terribly ofensi7e2 If the latter. then
let Us seize upon every opportunity that
opens before us,Of dealing deadly blows at our
Enemy. If they would stop our vessels from
leaving their harbOrs, blow their towns to
atoms; il they continue to multiply bate
nes around our forts, let the forts demand a
cessation Of such preparations,a and enforce that
command at the eaanon's mouth; if the
C~oniederacy stops our Mississippi boats, send
down an army Of workmen to cut away the
levees and drown the country ont with a

A few days since a mau named jasper was
arrested at Charleston aa the corrcspon-
dent Of the N. Z. Times, and aspy. The
British Consul interiered, declaring that Jas
per was a British subject and that If he was
not released he would order the West India
aeet to blockade CbarleftOn harbor and would
release Jasper by force. Such q prospect
was not pleasant to tho charlestOnisns and
they released The man atonce.
Jasper states that before the attack on
Sumter there was considerable talk about
making a demonstration against WaahingtoH
that they took the general ground that the
North was divided, and had no blood and
that II would be the easiest thing In The world
o seiza Washington. They, Of course, were
waiting the action Of Virginia to aid them
Jasper saws that since the attack on Sumter,
10 which he was an eye witness, the evidence
that there is no division in the North, but
on the contrary, a united uprising of the
whole North and West and an universal sH-
preston Of indignation and determination TO
put down the rebellion, must strike them IS
an awful reality which they did not dream
Of Jasper says be came through Richmond
a few days ago, and oOnversed with the leader
Of the secossionists there who assured him
that they were only awaiting the order Of
Governor Fletcher to seize the Norfolk Navy
Yard. he reports that the statement was
made to him that the secession ordnance
pissed the Convention in secret session
and that for reasons best known to them
selves the fact has been kept q secret.
