struck by his ball, and there found rich

PmEE-RocIous.-A late number of the
Richmond Wing, formerly submissionist,)
says:
Nobody seems to doubt but that the Yam
KEGS will speedily be routed, if our boys can
only get = fair lick at them The public i'm
patience is intense, that the blow should be
dealt. No more delay, but put the Yankees
to rout at once, that Maryland may have an
opportunity to rise, as one man, and crush
her foul oppressors The rout once begun, it
will never cease till peace is dictated in New
York. The people crave an Italian campaign,
like that of the great Napoleon to scatter
old SCOTS anaconda folds and bring the
Yankees to a sense of their nsigniicance.-
This is the tone of the popular pulse, quick
and feversh but not at all inconsistent with
fixed determination to conquer. and with
every confidence in the military skill of our
commanders.

For CoSGnEss.-H. 7. Barber, one of the
Secession nominees for Congress is, from what
we hear, of the same status morally that
Charley Scott was when he was chosen to
Congress. The S. 7. Call refers to the .sb-
ject, saying:
"Of his moral character we will allow the
eympathizer of his party, the Bulletin, to
speak; promising only that with him on their
ticket the Secession organs will be wise if
they touch lightly on the moral or personal
peccadillos of any of their opponents"

THE Loss OF TIE PAclFlc.-The Portland
Advertiser, of July Goth, speaking of the
loss of this steamer, says: "She left here
on Wednesday night, about eight o'clock,
with very light cargo, and about midnight
struck on Coffin Rock, in the Columbia. AT
that point the channel is narrow and crooked,
and at the present high stage of water very
rapid and full OF whiripoois. II is alleged
that the quartermaster at the wheel mstook
the order of the pilot a a critical time, when
the course of the ship had to be changed, in
order to make the channel around the rock,
and the sad result was that she struck, STAY
ing hole in her bows. Canvas wac at once
passed down, covering the leak, and every
effort was made to keep her afoat without
success and she was beached on the right
bank of the river some ten niles below
where she struck.

A Model Autobiography.

Perhaps the briefest personal memoirs ever
written, were the memoirs of Count Ropto-
phein, written in ten minutes. We subioin
few paragraphs, each of which constitutes
" chapter .:
My Birth.-On the 18th day of March,
1865, merged frcR darkness into the light
of day. | was measured, was weighed |
was baptised. was born without knowing
wherefore, and parents thanked Heaven,
without knowing for what.
Ny Educdtion.-I was taught all sorts of
things, and learned all sorts of languages
BY dint of impudcnce and quackery | some
times passed for a savan. My head has be:
come library of odd volumes, of which
keep the key.
Ny S"ferings.-I was tormented by mas
ters; by tailors who made tight dresses for
NE; by women; 10y ambition; by sclf-love
by useless regrets and by remembrances.
Memorial Epoehs AT the age of thirty
gave up dancing; at forty, my endeavors TO
please the fair sex; at fifty, my regard to
public opinion at sixty, the trouble of think
ing and have now become a true sage, or
egotist, which is the same thing.
Respectable Principlfs.-I have never med
died in auy marriages or scandal. | have
never recommended cook or physician, and
consequently have never attempted the life
of any one
Ny Dislikes-I have dislike to scts and
fops, and to intriguing women who make
game of virtue; disgust of affectaton; pity
for made-up men and painted women; an
aversion of rats, liquors, metaphysics and
rhubarb and terror of justice and villa
beasts.
Analasys Of Ny Lite.-I await death with
out impatienoe. My life has been bad melo-
drama on a grand stage, where have played
the hero, the tyrant, the lover, the noGleman,
but never the valet.
My Epitdph.-Here lies, in hope of reposo
an old diseased man, with a worn-out spirit
and exhausted heart, and used dy.-La-
dies and gentlemen, pass on
Daily national Democrat., 1861-07-28

SENATOR LATuAM-Simonton writes to the
Bulletin that Latham was in his seat at the
opening of Congress, in excellent health and
sprits and that his wife's health was much
improved. lie adds:
Mr.. Latham declares himself emphati-
cally and unequivocally in favor of support
ing the Government of the United States,
and maintaing the integrity of the Union, at
whatever cost may be necessary to that end"
California is rot misrepresented at the Fed
eral Capital now. Scott and Burch are out
of place, and true men VIII succeed them
JUST three days after the death of Senator
Douglas, at Chicago, Count Cavour the able
Prime Minister of Italy, died at Turin. Ca
vour has been the life of the late struggle for
the freedom, independence and unity of Italy.
Garibaldi may rank in history as its hero, but
he compares with the great civilian only as
Wellington compares with Pitt In fact, the
place vacated by the death of Count Cavour
can hardly be filled as well again. He died
at the age Of 50.

SuICIDE.-The Butte Record learns that .
man named SmiAh committed suicide near
the Forks of Butte Creek, on Thursday of
week before last, 10y shooting himself with n
rifle. The deceased moved to that locality
with large family about q month since.
On the day OF his committing the rash act
he was employed in splitting out clapboards
in the vicinity of his residence. Nothing
unusual about his demeanor was noticed,
until he went to lis house, took down his
rifle, and threatened to shoot some of the fe-
males about the house. Not attempting that,
however, he attempted to shoot himself, and
started off into the woods The report of
the rifle was soon heard few hundred
yards from the house, when The women gave
the alarm TO the neighbors; search was made,
and the body found, entirely lifeess. lie
had evidently planed the muzzle of the rifle
to the pit of his 0tomSeh' and fired it off by
means of the ramrod. No cause has been
ascertaned for the commission Of the despe-
rate act.
