How LIFE is LOST.

A man died the other day at the
Bellevue Hospital, after being sick over
two years. On opening the chest, there
was scarcely single inch ofsound lungs
on one side; the organ had broken
down in one mass Of corruption; and
the yellow matter Of consumption was
dipped out with skull, the most con-
venient cup at hand. He had been
working, in the garden one summers
day, and feeling little tired at noon,
went round to the shady side Of the
house and sat down to rest. A little
wind was blowing, which was so CRATE
full to him that he indulged himself in it
for few moments, when he was taken
with chill and never knew we'll mo-
ment afterwards.
Only two days ago, one Of the sweet
est possible pair Of black eyes came to
inquire, with all the shrinking and diff
dence inseparable from the occasion,
what we thought Of the case of a young
gentleman who had applied for advice
within week, stating as reason that
they were engaged to be married.
The young man in question had aris-
en- one morning in early May,and dress
ed in very light clothing, but was sol
much mistaken in the temperature of
the weather that he soon chilled, with
out the means Of changing his position
for some time that is, he felt chilly for
several consecutive hours, and had
been an Invalid ever since.
The disease had made such fearful |
progress, Chat two-thirds Of his lungs
were useless to him, and emaciation
night sweats, harrassing cough and
swollen feet made it useless to afford
the encouragement Of even prescribing
for the case.
These two eases involve the same
principles, getting chilled; one after ex-
ercise, the other by remaining cold for
hours, Su,e it is not hard to remember
the lesson. Let every parent impress
it upon the mind Of each child Oh the
instant, and it may prevent the great
calamity Of dying childless, than which
uot many are harder TO the heart to
bear indeed, it often fails to bear
them, and breaks under the burden

MARYLAND ELEcTloN.-Thc Con-
cressional elections in Maryland Thurs
day seems to have passed off quietly,
resulting in the choice Of the following,
all Union men:
lst. District-John w. Chris6eld.
ed District-Edwin H. Webster.
Sd District-Corn's L. L. Leary.
4th District-Henry May
5th District Francis Thomas.
9th District-Charles b. Cavert.
The only thing to regret in the result
is the defeat Of Henry Winter Davis in
the 4th District. 1t is true, his succsss-
full competitor, Mr. May, pretends to be
an earnest Union man, and as such had
the vote of the majority ofthe wealthy
and respectable Union men, who tad
come to regard Mr.. Davis an active
Republican. Many Of the seeessioniss,
also. who had no candidate Of their own
voted for Mr.. May, to vent their extreme
hatred of Mr.. Davis. As 9 whole, tho
DELEGATION seems to be Of high ohar-
acter. M. Webster is the only Old
member. Ex-Gov. Thomas and Mr.,
Calvert are men likely to win national
reputation.

From tho Provinces.

Within the past week General Williams,
the commander of the forces in Canada, has
been summoned to Quebec to confer with
the Governor General upon the military
defences of the Province. 1t is said that as
the result of the council, it has been deter
mined to prepare for emergencies, by plac-
ing the frontier of Canada in a state Of
defence. 1t is rumored also that it has been
resolved to call out ten thousand volun.
teers.
The Montreal Herald and Gazette, of
9th, fully discussing present aspects; re.
veals full sense of the dangers of Canada
in the event of war between this Govern.
ment and England, which it does not deem
likely. 1t says truly:
There is but one cause which would be serv.
ed by the war between Great Britain and the
United States. That is the cause of the South
in other words the extension of slavery.
The New York Herald, therefore, is stimulat.
ing the war feeling in the United States just
as the Southern sympathizers in Canada
would; If theg could stimulate it here.

Failure of the Hudson City Bank,

We regret to announce the failure of this
old and respected institution, which for the
past elk years has been credit to Hudson,
as well as great benefit to our citizens,
during that time. But since 1856, circum.
stances have been continually against the
Bank--losses one upon another in quick
succ' ssion until it has finally been COMPEL.
ed to 60 down. 1t withstood the great
crash of 1857-the robbery of l858-the
depreciation of its Southern Stocks, and
the great loss on Illinois currency, at the
greatest sacrifice to its officers-Only to
meet more untimely end.
j. s. Gibson, Cashier, who has had
charge the past two years, has done all that
any man could do, to sustain the credit of
the institution, until better times should re.
lieve him--and up to Monday morning, we
can safely say that no banking house in the
State stood better than the Hudson City
Bank.
We are assured that depositors are all
secured, as the liabilities are only about
$4,000. Mr.. j. o. Henning, President,
and j. S. Gibson, Cashier, have assigned to
I'll. L. Humphrey everything they have
which can be converted to the payment of
depositors. Bill holders are secured accor.
ding to the comptroller's report, at 81 cents
on the dOlar.--Hu1son Times, December 4.

A Christian Commodore

The Philadelphia North american bore
the following testimony to the moral and
Christian character of Commodore Dupont
before bis late brilliant achievement at Port
Royal harbor:
He entered the navy as a midshipman
when just twelve years of age, and be is
now IN the prime of bis physical life. With
more than forty years. experience in bis
profession, and well disciplined and cult
waited mind, be unites every quality which
can distinguish great naval captain. It
does not, in cur estimation, detract from
his abilities, that he walks humbly be,
fore bis God as a Christian soldier
and gentleman. No one has ever sailed
with him who does not honor and love
him; while no ships ever exhibited better
discipline than those which be commanded.
He was always firm, but kind rigid, but
lenient. No profanity ever polluted his
lips, and no carelessness of living ever set
a bad example to younger men who were
serving under him.

What HoOsier thinks of Gen, Sigel.

The army correspondent OF the Indianap
oils Sentinel, writing from Missouri says:
The Grand Army of the West, which so
recently settled like locusts upon the devo.
ted city OF Southwest Missouri, Springfield,
is no more. 1t has resolved itself into its
original elements under the commands of
various division Generals. BY the by, that
reminds me!of tribute due one of these dig
nitaries which l shall feebIy pay. General
Sigel is unquestionably the best General in
this Department. III give you my reasons
for this conclusion. His physiognomy bears
Enthusiastically the impress of genius. You
can readily, without previously knowing
him personally, pick him out of any crowd
of officers in this Department. When you
look at his broad massive forehead, his
clear, flashing eye, and that popularity of
expression den0tiDg will, concentration,
and powers of rapid combination and an
alysis, you are satisfied that you see great
man, one especially fitted to lead an army.
He, is the only man I've seen out here who
looks the General. True, we have men
sporting whiskers and stars, who look fierce,
starchy and even talented but that some.
thlng beyond, which now and then IN the
worlds history, stands prominently out at
tracing all eyes and battling description,
is wanting.
Everybody except envious regular
officers loves Sigel. The soldiers of
his command adore him. Thoroughly con.
versant with all the details of modern war.
fore, he preserves order and all necessary
discipline, and yet retains the enthusiastic
love of his men. His commands are obey
ed not through slavish fear, but because
nobody doubts, their propriety. "Sigel said
So" stops all debate. The dispute is ended.
An emanation from superior being has
settled the controversy. The esprit du corps
is a fixed institution in his division. 10 be
able to say I'm nit Sigel," is the pride
with US, and when said is accompanied with
look of pity to the listener, saying intel
Lightly, " Poor fellow, I'm sorry for you
that you are not NIT Sigel!'
