CONTEMPLATED SEIZURE OF WASHINGTON
BY TIE SOUTHERN CoNFEDERAoY.-The fol.
lowing is an extract of a letter dated the 2l
inst, and received in New York from gen.
tleman of high position in Washington:
The possession of the seat of Government
by the Southern Oonfederacy is an event
most confidently predicted to take place
within sixty days. The wife of United
States Senator told me an anecdote illustra-
tive of the purposes of the President of the
Southern Confederacy. He holds a very
eligible pew in the Rev. Mr.. Halls church,
and lady, wishing to obtain it, wrote to
him that she would give what he gave for it.
He replied, 'that so far from relinquishing
my (his) pew, l have ordered an engraved
plate TO be affixed to it bearing my name"
A lady Just from Montgomery, in taking
leave of Mrs. Davis, asked, "And what mes
sage must bear from you to your lady friends
in Washington" She replied, "Tell them l
shall be happy to receive their calls at the
White House some two months hence" This
is very elaborate trifing, or unsurpassed
castle building. .# ... ...

INTERESTING ExTRADITIoN CAsE-Arrest of
an E1tensiUe Southern Saoindler.--The Mon
treal (Canada) Gazette says: s.
A tall Southerner, who has been boarding
at the st. Lawrence Hall for the past few
days, was arrested and lodged in Jail on Tues
day morning, at the instance of a creditor
who came on from New York for him, after
tracking him through great part of the
Southern States. The amount which he is
alleged to have swindled his creditors out of
is over $4,000, and was so swindled while
he was residing and doing large business
in Brownsville, Texas, under the name of E.
Karpelas. He is said to defy his creditors,
and offers to commute with them for fifteen
cents on the dollar. On the other hand, it
is stated that the plaintiffs have acted on the
most able legal advice, and feel confident
that the case is one which comes under the
provisions of the extradition treaty. Under
present political circumstances it remains TO
be seen how the treaty will stand with re-
spect to Texas, a seeded State.

THE STREETS OF THE FRENCH CAP1rAL.-l


Paris correspondent writes:
In all Paris there are nearly 500 different
streets. Of these, ls9 owe their designation
to churches, chapels, abbeys, converts,
monasteries, ancient cemeteries and colleges,
and 1873 more were named in consequence of
their proximity to the same institutions or
localities; It's bear the name of landed pro-
prietors, who opened them through their
estates; 81 are named after popular signs and
inscriptions of taVerns and shops; "a in
honor of noble mansions; 76 after their own
principal inhabitants IS are called after
provinces and eities 30 are named in honor
of illustrious soldiers; 60 bear the names of
trade corporations; 45 those of notable ad-
ministrators; SO those of famous magistrates;
% those of celebrated barristers; 2l bear the
names of kings and queens; AZ those of
princes and princesses; II those Of cardinals
and bishops; 80 those of abbots aud priests;
As those Of great battles or victories; 10 those
of eminent admirals 20 those of eminent
ministers and councillors of State &c.
Literature, art and science fare most
scantily in the honors of street nomenclature.
Twenty. three are called after authors; 10
after architects; IL savants; 7 musicians; 6
physicians; 8 engineers; A astronomers; 8
naturalists, and 3 painters. The rest of the
names borne by Partisan streets are either
unmeaning, ridiculous OF vulgar. As ex-
amples, which will be well understood in
New Orleans, | may cite the first half dozen
which occur to my memory: Rues Coq-
Heron, Vide Gousset, Boulets Mauvais Gar

Heavy FOrgerIes In Boston-A Shoe
DenIer swindles Various Parties out of
$4,000 and Deeamps- Assets Of 80 TO
Offset Linbiiities OF $4,000.
Thursdays Boston Journal remarks:
Quite sensation was created in business
circles yesterday, by the Announcement of the
discovery of a large amount of forged notes,
put in circulation by H. d. p. Bigelow, Of
the late firm Of Bigelow h Knight, boot and
shoe dealers, No. 20 Pearl. street. Promis-
sorry notes, the amount of which IL Is impos-
sible at the present moment to ascertain, but
variously estimated at from $4,000 TO $780,
600, bearingth forged signatures of several
of the customers of the late firm, and among
others the name of E. b. Bigelow, shoe
manufacturer of Grafton and brother of
the alleged forger, are held by several WE'LL
known banking-houses and business firms in
this city. Two spurious notes for $500 came
to maturity the latter part Of last week,
which led to an investigation.
About month since Mr.. Knightdisposed
of his interest in the firm to Bigelow, who
has since carried on the business in his own
name. The fraudulent transactions were
entirely independent Of the regular business
Of the house, and were entirely unknown to
his book keeper and former partner. Having
secured the proceeds of the spurious paper,
Bigelow converted all the genuine notes
Of the late firm, and every thing that he
could get possession Of, into money, besides
borrowing several thousand dollars iE sums
of 800, $500 and 81, 600, from various firms
on Peafl-street, and appropriating to his
own use 81, 500, which his brother sent him to
deposit, he fed from the city on Friday even.
ing last and has not since been heard from.
He was traced to the Boston and Worcester
depot, where he was seen with trunk, and
it is supposed that he proceeded to New
York, and embarked on Saturday last for
Europe. His liabilities amount to about
$750 900, to Offset which he left the enormous
sum of three dollars, as his late partner in
formed party who presented a bill, a few
days since. The firm was supposed to be
worth about $4,000.

SINGULAR INFLUENCE OF TREES UPON Gil
MATE.-Jochim Frederic Sahouw, Professor
of Botany at Copenhagen, speaks as follows
of the influence of forests upon the atnos.
pbere:
We find the most evident signs of it in the
torrid zone. The forests increase the rain
and moisture, and produce springs and
running streams. Tracts destitute of woods
become very strongly heated, the air above
them ascends perpendicularly, and thus pre-
vents the clouds from sinking, and the con +.
slant winds (trade winds or monsoons),
where they can blow uninterruptedly over
large surfaces, do not allow the transition OF
vapors into the form of drops. In the forests,
on the contrary, the clothed soil does not
become so heated, and, besides, the evapora-
tion from the trees faYors cooling; there
fore, when the currents of air loaded with
vapors reach the forests, they meet with that
which condenses them, and change into rain.
Since, moreover, evaporation of the earth
goes on more slowly beneath the trees, and
since these also eyaporate very copiously in
hot climate, the atmosphere in those
forests has high degree of humidity, thi;
great humidity at the same time producing
many springs and streams. ~ Z. f

TIE DANGER OF BRooDING ON ONE
THoUGHT-If you think long and deeply
upon any subject, says a writer in Frassr's
MagGzine, it grows in apparent magnitude
and weight; if you think of it too long, it
may grow big enough to exclude the
thought of all things besides. If it be an
existing and prevalent evil you are thinking
OF, you may come to fancy that if that one
thing were done away, it would be well with
the human race-all evil would go with it.
out mania, without any thing worse than
the workable unsouhdness of the practic-
ally sound mind, one might come to think,
as the man who wrote against stopping
thought. For myself l feel the force OF
this law so deeply that there are certain
evils of which l am AFRAID TO think much,
for fear should come TO be able 70 think
of nothing else and nothing more. 10.

SINGULAR SpIT ABOUT PYRAMID OF Ice
CBEAM.-In the Boston Police Court on Nom
day last we'll known confectioner sued a
respectable" citizen for the value of an ice
cream pyramid. The defendant admitted
that he had ordered the aforementioned
pyramid" of the plaintiff for the entertain-
ment of q party of friends connoisseurs in ice
cream, but that the sable servant of the con-
fectioner--doomed, apparently, to be the
disturbing element in the epicurean as in
the political world--had broken it on the
way to defendants house, and had mended
the fracture with his fingers. e.. .-t
The constructive powers of Cuffee not
being equal to his inventive faculties, de-
fendant contended that the lingering" had
destroyed the symmetry and beauty of the
structure, and had otherwise so marred it as
to render it worthless, and source of morti-
fcation to defendant in the proposed enter
tainment of his friends. The Court failing
to discover in the violated sense of beauty,
or in the outraged pride of the defendant,
any just cause for the non. payment of his
bill, gave a verdict for the confeotioner.

A FEMININE MAcAULAY A CENTURY AGO
Baron Macaulay is not the first English his
torian of that name. About century ago
flourished one Catherine Macaulay. who
wrote and published five volume History
of England, from the Accession of James the
FIRST to the Elevation Of the House Of Hano
ger. The book-clever, piquant and calum-
nious-was an immense success, and brought
the author a profit of several thousand
pounds, which aroused the envy Of both
Goldsmith and johnson. Five years after
Catherine Macaulay published her fifth vol
ume, Gibbon brought out the first of his De
cline and Fall. He did not at the time meet
with the success of his female rival yet to.
day every. body reads Gibbon, and very few
have ever heard of Catherine Maeaulay.1

the way in which his Never Too Late 10
Mend has been ruthlessly dramatized without

Reade, sole author in all its forms of Never

premises that "an author is neither an out

inevitable consequence, a citizens claim to
be sole proprietor of his own production,

A COMMON MISTAKE IN FHEDRG HoRsEs.--
The Southern Homestead says that "Ths
practice of regulating the food of horses by
the amount of work they are required 70
perform, is a good one if properly followed
For example, horse, when comparatively
idle, as in Winter, SHOULD have less solid
food than amid the hard work of Spring and
Summer. Again, if horse is abont to per-
form work of extra labor, il is well to for
tify him with little extra feeding before
hand. But the mistake we refer TO is the
practice Of 0ver-feeding him an hour or so
bsfore patting him to work. If an extra
service is required of a horse on any par
ticulRr day, and an extra feed is 70, be given
him, let bim have it the evening before
hand, rather than in the morning, an hour
or two before being pat to work. Why so 2
Because if be is put to work so soon after
