GEORGE HEARsl,--We notice, by an item
in the Transcript Of this morning, hat our
old friend and former partner in the quartz
business, George Hearst, has lately been
arrested in ST. Louis for seditious language,
Hearst made a lucky strike in WashOe,
and went home TO astOnish the natives OF
Pike, but undoubtedly finds himself greatly
estonished at the turn affairs have taken.
II appears be has been trying to act the
difficult character Of neutral, but his SYM
pathies were with JeK Davis & Co., aud he
was probably betrayed into expressions,
which, under the operations of marsha law,
we're deemed sedltious. II lie not likely,
however, that be would ever have furnish
ed any laid and comfort to the enemy.
and bis running at large would not serious
ly have intertered with FremOnps grand
expedition down the Mississippi. We hope
be will soon be set at liberty.

FRIGHTFUL MURDER.-A woman, the wife
of Mr.. Kelly, residing near Guadalupe in this
day of last week. When discovered, her little
child, nine months old, lay asleep by her side,
literally covered with blood. The mother had
received no less than thirteen stabs and cuts
at the hands of some demon in human shape.
Her husband was away from home at the time.
She had testified against Spaniard in "a suit
for grand larceny about a year before, which
resulted in his conviction and imprisonment.
The term of his sentence lately expired, and
he was seen in the neighborhoOd but few days
before, and has not been seeen since.-[San

native cotton. consisting of thirty bales, was
shipped from Nicaragua to Panama few weeks
ago. The cotton was grown by an American
named Russell, who expects to have a large
crop next year. The soil and climate of Cen
trail America being shown by this experiment
to be suitable to cotton culture, it is not unlike
ly that the region named may yet become an
important source of supply OF that material
which has exerted, during the last half century,
a very decided influence on the social and po-
litical fortunes of the world.

THE STEEL PEN DIsRAsE.-Some of our
readers will probably recollect notice which
appeared last February, relative to a theory ad-
vanced by President FELTON, of Harvard, that
the facilitating, and sometimes paralytic affeC-
tions Of the hand and arm experienced by those
accustomed to write much, were attributed to
the use of steel pens. Since the appearance Of
the notice in question, there has been good
deal of speculation regarding the theory it de-
scribed, and many practical tests of its reliabil-
ity have been instituted President FELTON, has
received great many letters proving the effica-
cy of resorting to the old goose quill in curing
partial and almost complete paralysis of the
hand and arm, caused by using steel pens. One
instance is very remarkable. An eminent pub
Usher in this city some two years ago found
himself unable to steady his hand to write. His
hand and arm swelled so that he was forced to
employ an amanuensis and such was his neces-
sity, only at very brief intervals until he hap
pened to see description of President Felton's
theory. He adopted the goose quill instead of
the steel pen, and in month thereafter was
able to do his own writing, which he continues
to do without any trouble.-[ Boston Paper.
