couple of soldiers of the Barracks, as we are
informed, to break into the confectionery
store of Mr.. Brazzelario, on the corner oi
Bellevue and Isabella streets. They gathered
up q large rock and threw it against the door
thinking to force it open, but they were dis
covered in the act by Mr.. B., who was jus

CONVICTION NEWS.

A NOVEL IDEA.-It has been seriously pro-
posed, by some of our most respectable citi-
zens-at the first sight, though a novel, it
wonld seem very good idea--that when the
vote is taken, to. morrow, for the amend
ment of the City Charter, a vote should also
Be taken for Postmaster. The proposition
suggests that all aspirants for the Office shall
announce their names to day or to morrow,
the name of the one who receives the high
est number of votes, to be sent on to Mr..
Lincoln, is the one chosen by the people for
that position.
PREsENTATIoN.-The friends of Mr.. T. D..
Davis, formerly master mechanic in the
machine shop of the Kentucky Central Rail-
road, met at the house of Isaac Sutton, cor
ner of Madison and Fifth. streets, night or
two ago, and presented him with beautiful
gold watch. Those friends were employees in
the same establishment in which Mr.. Davis
had been engaged, and it was, most GER
tainly, a beautiful compliment to the merits
of the man.
NEWPORT AND CovINaToN BRIDGE Con-

who have the "blessedest babies" and who
regard it as a settled thing they are too
bright to be long for this world, ordered the

houses any more; and one man who had

SHIPMENT EXTRAORDINARY - We were
somewhat surprised yesterday on seeing a
shipment of carriages TO California from this
city. The sequel is, that some four years
since gentleman of Sacramento City, Cali
fornia, was induced, by the apparent supe-
rior workmanship of the carriages manuiac-
tured by our well-known citizen, ]. W. Cos
ling, Esq, to purchase buggy for his own
use In California. The result of the expert
ment has been so entirely satisfactory that
he and some of his neighbors have ordered
some five more frst-class articles, which
were shipped, as above, Vid New York. This
not only speaks we'll for the reputation OF
Mr.. Gosling, but also for the reputation OF
our city ss a manufacturing community

PRESENTATION OF BEAN PoLEs.-Take three
pints of chloride of zinc TO half a barrel or
about sixteen gallons of water. Set the
poles upright in this liquid, and they will be
ready for use in about week. A person
who had tried this with good success, states
that the poles he used were of maple, white
birch, poplar and walnut about an inch in
diameter; they were cut eight years ago,
and after being used several summers, stin
remained sound. Fence posts, spouts, shin
giles, &C., are benefited in the same way.

Rev. NJ. D. Conway will this evening deliver
his lecture on "Bohemianism," which there
is much curiosity to hear, and which he has
been for some time preparing, at the First
Congregational Church, corner of Race and
Fourth. streets. Bohemianism is an in-
stitution in America, and in our city.
we think of photographing it here one of
of these days-and, we presume, the audi
epce will be large; while the discourse, we
feel confident, will be able and interesting.

OpenIng of the British Parliament.


This description of the opening of Parlia-
ment by Queen Victoria is given in the
London Chronicle:
There are uniforms of all colors-the fs-
miliar scarlet of the Hanoverian, the light
blue of the Greek, the dark blue of the
French, the dark green Of the Austrian, the
plain ahd unasuming black of the American.
Over these there are red ribbons, and blue
ribbons, and amber ribbons, and there are
stars, and crosses, and medals, and all man
ner Of decorations. There are some
who have none of these baubles-Mr. Dallas,
the American Minister; the Secretary, Mr..
Dallas, jr, and the Assistant Secretary, Mr..
Moran. The most picturesque in the gronp
is the Persian Embassador-his black flow
ing beard, his tall hat and Eastern robes
make him a prominent member Of the coTpg
diplomatique.
At last even the Commons are silenced,
and the Lord Chancellor has advanced to
the throne, and, kneeliDg, hands the royal
speech to the Queen. This her Majesty, in a
| clear and distinct voice, reads to the assem-
| bled Lords and Commons. The most per-
feet stiffness prevails the foreign Ministers
| listen anxiously fer the passages that relate
| to their profession, and Mr.. Dallas and Mr..
| Moran show intense interest in the passages
relating to the threatened disruption of the
Union; and when her Majesty expressed
'her heartfelt wish that their differences
may be susceptible of a satisfactory adjust
ment," the venerable Minister of the United
States gave something like "Burleigh'i
nod" which seemed to say he hoped so, too
but evidently had some misgivings on tn
subject.

PREPARATION OF BoSEs FOR MANURE-The
best and cheapest method of preparing bones
for manure, says the Country GentLerlon, is,
first to boil them in strong ley few hours,
to extract from them the animal matter; or,
what would be more convenient, perhaps,
break them as fire as convenient, aud put
them into q tub of ley, to remain there
during pleasure, until the animal matter is
all extracted and incorporated with the ley.
The mineral part of tine bones will now be
found very friable and easily pulverized.
They should be rinsed clean, pulverized, and
put into another tub or trough.
Apply to them some diluted sulpburic
acid in the proportion of one of acid to i've
of water. Stir them frequently, and in a
short time they will be entirely decomposed
and fit fer use. These two masses, being
equally rich in the elements Of fertility, the
one of ammonia and the other of phosphorus,
are equally valuable as fertilizers and adapted
10 any and every variety of soil that may be
deficient in these elements, are equally neces-
sary for the healthful maturity of every
growing plant, whether of grain, grasses,
fruits or roots. / now advise a mixture Of
these two masses with the general compost
to secure a general diffusion of them upon
the different fields to be manured.
My reason for the general diffusion OF
these masses upon the different fields is, first,
every Diapt needs them. Secondly, the
farmers resources in this line will be mainly
within himself. This will be true Of those
that live at distance from villages and
cities. Their resources must be small
| Thirdly, the elements of the bone, both AMI
NAL and mineral were taken from the differ
ent fields, and should be returned to thu
same fields. To keep up the fertility Of eacl
| field, it is necessary to return TO it annually
| the same elements that are taken away. TIT
| farmer may secure large crop Of any kline
ON any field, by robbiug other fields of thu
same elements Of fertility TO enrich that one
But such policy would not only be bad
hut ruinous, If pursued.
