No SARBATH-In Z" Prize Essay on the Sab
bath" written by journeyman printer in Scot
land there occurs the following striking passage;
" Yoke-fellows! think how the abstraction Of the
Sabbath would hopelcssly enslave the working
classes with whom we are identified. Think Of
the labor thus going on in one monotonous, and
continuous and eternal cycle-limbs forever on
the rack the fingers forever playing, the eyeballs
forever straining, the brow forever sweating, the
feet forever plodding and brain forever throb-
bing, the shoulders forever dropping, the loins
forever aching, and the restless forever schemng.
Think of the beauty it would efface, of the mer-
ry -heartedness it would extinguish, of the giant
strength i would tame of resources of nature
that il would exhaust, of aspirations it would
cr;sh, of sickness it would breed, of The projects
it would wreck, of the groans it would exort, of
the graves it would prematurely dig. See them
toiling and moiling, sweating and fretting,
grinding and hewing, weaving and spinning,
sowing and gathering, moving and reapng
raising and building, digging and planting, un-
loading and storing, striving and struggling-in
the garden and in the granary and in the barn,
in the wood, in the city and in the country, on
the sea and on the shore, on the earth in days OF
brightness and Of gloom. What sad picture
would the world present if we had no Sabbath ~

THE SUGAR DUTIEs.-The amount of duties
paid on sugars imported into this country, to
protect the interests of Louisiana, has averaged
more than S7,000,O00 per annum for the last five
years, and during the decade closed have amount
ed to fully s57,000000 In 1860, the value of
sugar imported was S2S,93l 900, the duty on
which ga per cent? amounted to $6,943,000.
OF the total consumption of sugar in this coun
Try, it is estimated that 40 per cent. is the pro-
duct of the Louisiana plantations, the whole of
which would become worthless in week. except
under protective tariff. The capital invested
in these is probably not less than $50, 900, 600,
and may exceed that figure considerably. Dur
ing the last quarter of century the sugar pro-
ducts Of that State must have reached the sum
Of $25Q,000, 600.

How LOLA MONTEz DIED.-Poor and almost
friendless, LOLA died at the house of friend
who had known and loved her when school
mate in Scotland. The New York Esening Post
makes the following affectin mention Of her
death:
Far from the members of her family, and repu-
dated by those who had been the friends of her
youth, she was far happier than she could have
been had she died in the midst of the palatial
splendor which was so long her glory and her
shame
The merciful Providence who so constantly
sends His blessings alike into the good and the
evil, threw this poor outcast, during her last
days, upon the kind charities of a Christian lady,
who had Glanced to be her schoolmate in Scot
land, but who was for many years ignorant that
the Lola Montez Of the newspapers was the inno-
cent school girl of thirty years ago.
Though disabled by sickness, and deprived Of
all claims, according to worldly principles, upon
any such association, she here found a self deny
ing friend, who sOothed her dying moments, and
led her to take refuge in the consolation of the
consolation of the Christian faith. The Rev. Dr.
Hawks, on being requested to attend her, was
frequently at her bedside, and gave her the bene-
nj OF his pastoral instructions. as if she had been
one of his own flock He officiated at her funer-
al, on the 18th inst, and Mr.. Brown, who has at
tended so many funerals, and weddings in his
day, (may he live many years. was seen to wipe
the tears from his eyes as he heard the clergyman
say that he had never known a case of more sim
cere penitence than was evinced in the present
instance. "Let him who is without sin cast the

An ARKANSAS LEGIsLATOR.-A member elect
of the lower chamber of the Legislature Of Ar
kansas was persuaded by some wags of his neigh
borhood, that if he did not reach the State House
at 10 o'clock on the day of the assembling, be
could not be qualified. and would lose his seat
He Immediately mounted, with hunting -frock
rifle and bowie-knife, and spurred tin he got to
the capitol, where he hitehed his nag.
A crowd was in the chamber Of the lower
house. on the ground floor, walking about with
their hats on, and smoking cigars. These he
passed, ran up the stairs into the Senate chamber,
sat his rifle up against the wall, and then sang
out:
Strangers, wbar is the man that swears me
in ?" at the same time taking ont his credentials.
"Walk this way" said the clerk, at the same
time igniting principe-and he was sworn at
once, without any further inquiry
When the teller came TO count noses, he found
there was one Senator more than enough present
The mistake was soon discovered, however, and
the huntsman politely informed that he did not
belong there.
What !" roared he, "fool who ? you can't
funk this child with your corn bread, no how you
can fix it. I'm ected to this ere Legislature
and I'll 60 agin all banks and Internal improve

floor this two legged animal, hop on just as soon
ms you like, for, though I'm from the back coun-
try, I'm little smarter than any quadruped you
can turn out of this drove"
After this haranguc, he put his bowie-knife
between his teeth, and took up his rife with a
"Come here, old Suke, stand by me-" at the
Fame time aiming at the Chairman-who, howev-
er, had seen such people before.
After some expostuation, the man was persua-
dcd that he belonged to the lower chamber, upon
which he sheathed his knife flung his gun on his
shoulder, and with respectful congee, remarked:
"Gentlemen, beg your pardon, but if didn't

THE SPoHs OF WAR.-The spoils of war are
exciting great attention in England and France,
on account of the large stories reported in the
advices from China 1t is stated that the share
of the booty falling to Gen. Montauban from the
sacking of Pekin, will amount to $250,000. The
Summer Place of the Chinese King, at Pckin,
was a rich prize for the allied army, as il con
tained silver treasure valued at Sl40,000 and
the French handed over to the British valuable
articles which were disposed of by auction among
the officers for $4,000 These articles will
probably be sold at large advance, should their
owners live to reach hame with their spois.
Mr.. Russell in his Diary in India" gives a
very graphic account Of the sacking of Kaiser
bagh, by the British soldiers. The men were
wild with fury and the lust of gold-literally
drunk with plunder The booty consisted of
shaws, rich tapestry, gold and silver brocade
caskets of jewels and precious stones. One
soldier broke open silver jewel casket in the
presence of Mr.. Russell, and drew out an armlet
OF emeralds and diamonds and pearls,so large that
their genuneness was questioned. The soldier
offered to sell these jewels for less than twenty
dollars in cash and bottle Of rum, on the SPOT ;
hut as those present had not the ready money
about their persons, and the soldiers thought It
was not "safe to have any but ready money
transactions" as he "did not know where he'd
be this blessed night" the bargin was not made.
These very jewels were afterwards purchased by
an officer, who sold them for S37 900!
