the preservation of our liberties. Yesterday,
for instance, was accosted by q fine, hale,
handsome man, whose hair was closely shaved
and who was dressed in the blue blouse Of one
of the numerous regiments quartered in this
city. At first could not recognize him, bu
after a few moments study of his face discov-
cred that was talking to Thomas Francis
Meagher, the great Irish orator, one OF thu
captains Of the splendid regiment commanded
by Colonel CorcorAn, fourteen hundred strong
| quartered in the building of the 'GeorgetowI
| College, near this city. Animated by the cam
spirit that fred him against the British govern
ment, he has come here to offer his sword to hi
adopted country-that sword which he 30 elo

10 The style in which many of the Repub

the only weapon they intend to use in the lonl
and tedious conflict, in which, II may be, we ar

than the quill, the South might secede unit
doomsday. atgse ~ s.3 tsssr7 -sf
They do not intend TO 60 into the army, ant

who are enrolled for the service. Indeed th,
latter have perfect contempt for the whole
brood Of "irrepressible editors" and pay nj
attention to the nonsensical articles which issu'

The secessionists will find that the Northerr

Federal Union, and that they regard it as th'
first duty of good citizen to protect, defend ant

OF those who would destroy the fair fabric o.

This is the mission of our Volunteers, and they

Fate of a s.m.ls Gambler "A Dsp.rato Suicide

We learn by foreign papers, that lady,
somewhat noted in German society, made
desperate attempt to commit suicide, few
weeks ago, under the following circumstances:
It seems that the unfortunate woman, though
connected with some of the first families in
Germany, has long been constant visitor to
the most noted gambling rooms In Europe, win
ming snd losing immense sums. Not long ago,
she took up her residence in Hamburg, and pur
sued the career of a gamester, until one night,
not long ago, when luck went against her, and
she lost every thing. On the following day she
informed her acquaintances that business called
her to neigbboring city; but, instead of going
thither, she proceeded to the village of Kirdof.
about three miles distant. Ascending the tower
of new church there, she took advantage of
the momentary absence OF her attendant to tie
her feet together and cast herself headloDg from
the dizzy hight! The distance from the summit
OF the tower to the ground is over one hundred
feet; yet the fall did not Immediately kill the
would be suicide; and when found she was etill
able to speak, though in frghtfully mangled
condition. She was conveyed to the hospital oil
| Hamburg, and still remains there in deplorable
state, though il is not improbable that her in
juries may be partially cured. She is said to be
strkingly handsome woman, and says that
she was influenced to her mad career by power
stronger than her will.

How swlsa Cheese is Made.

The manner in which Swiss peasants combine
to carry on cheese making by their united eff
fort deserves to be noted. Each parish in Swift
zerland hires man, generally from the district
of Gruyere, in the canton of Frayburgh, to take
care Of the herd and make the cheese; one
cheeseman, one pressman or assistant, and one
coWheId, are considered necessary for every
forty cows. The owners OF the COVE get credit
in book for the quantity ofmilk given by eacf
COW daily. The cheeseman and his assistants
milk the COWS, put the milk all together, ant
make cheese OF it; and at the end Of the season
each owner receives the weight Of cheese pro-
portionable to the quantity Of milk his cows
have delivered. BY this co operative plan, in
stead Of small sized, unmarketable cheeses
which each owner could produce out of his thre,
or four cows milk, he has the same weight IL
large, marketable cheeses, superior in quality
because made by people who attend to no othel
business. The cheeseman and his assistant
are paid 30 much per head Of the cows in monej
or cheese; or sometimes they hire the COWS, snd
pay the owners in money or cheese. A similar
style exists in the French Jura Notes Of ,
Tfapsller

From THE PACIFIC souADRos.-Advices from
the Pacific squadron record the resignation OF
ten officers Of the feet. The commander-in-

Mr.. Charles Murray, had arrived, and taken

that there is little likelihood Of any moro being
