TOUCHING AFFECTION OF A WIFE.-A
touching, though thoroughly Frenchy, case OF
crime and affection is recorded in the French
papers "A young man named Victor aged
&c, was tried at the Assize Court of Paris, for
attempting to murder his wife vi torine aged
Is. He stabbed here in nine places. The dc.
fence was that the prisoner was drunk at the
time. 1t appeared he was much attached to
his wife, but got on badly with her mother-a
very common case. The wife, who had suf-
Fl :iently recovered TO appear in court as a wit
ness, said everything she could for her hus-
band aud some letters, written to him while
he was in prison, so moved the hearts of the
jury that they pronounced a verdict of acquit-
tai. In one of these letters, referring to the
fact of her having a child eight months
old, and being again eaciente, she thus
eloqu .ndy expresses herself Ten times
over | would wish myself dead, were it not
for three voices which | hear, and which say,
Courage !--you shall be happyP Which is
the first of these voices On! it is the voice
of my husband, whom have meyer ceased to
love. The second voice is that of my little
Marie, who says, Courage, mother II will
love you both, and you shall both be happy 7
And what is the third voice Obi that is a
very little one, indeed-one that scarcely
breatlles as yet we see that "Victorine," by
the use Of the word "Lreathe," is not an adept
in physiology but still it gently heaves in
my bosom, and whispers that l am again to
become mother!

The KNIcKERBoCKERs IN BATTLE,-When
the Berks county and other interior troops
were on their way to Camp Curtin, the Off
GERS had a conference over the news of the
taking of Fort Sumter, and the fact that after
SO hours cannonading, no life was lost One
honest Dutch officer could not understand how
this could be done; but another officer, better
posted in modern warfare, assured him that it
was all owing to the astonishing improve
ments in modern science, which had made the
art of war SO perfect that forts might be batter.
ed down, and cities be bombarded, and yet not
a single individual be killed. The honest
Dutch son of Mars listened attentively and in
surprise at such remarkable results. Sudden.
" lis face Redeemed, and with blow of his
fist upon the table, which sounded like the
discharge of a colum6iad, he exclaimed, "Den,
by tam, dey had better not pring town our
Dutchmans, for dey are so tam shtupid mid
science, dat dey could not go into fight nit
out killing somepoty."

LIBRARY OF THE LATE KING OF PRUSSIA.
The private library of the late King of Prus-
STA, Frederick Wilhelm the Fourth, is valuable
and extensive. 1t comprises about Sc 900 vol
umes, and contains, for the greater part, works
OF history, archaeology, and Christian art.
The library fills six large rooms of the royal
palace at Berlin. Humboldt's works formed
special compartment, called the Humboldt
Press, aud are found in greater completeness,
from the large work ON America, which costs
5000 thalers, to the smallest pamphlet, than
when Humboldt himself possessed them.
This library has been left by will to the pres
ent king, with the exception of the artistic
works, which have been bequeathed to the
queen dowager. A question arose, il all the
illustrated works with wood cuts, &C., were to
be understood among the artistic works, "
which question has been decided in favor OF
the queen

FIDELITY TO THE CoNsTITUTGoN.-We shall
secure peace for ourselves and our children in
the only method possible for US, by restoring
to he national government dominion over ev-
cry inch of its territory. The federal union
and the southern contederacy cannot live to.
gether on that territory in any other relation
but that of war. The institution OF slavery,
so far from rendering separate governments
wise or expedient, really torbds the existence
Of but one. The everlasting conflict within
the government will he merely changed 10
everlasting war without. The only peaceable
solution Of the difficulty is in fidelity to the
constitution of the United States.-Judge

THE OLDEST VoLUNTEER.-Indiana can
probably claim the honor of furnishing the
oldest volunteer of any state in the Union.
Mr. Bates of Pendleton, ninety-t years old,
volunteered with company from Madison
county, went into Camp Morton on Saturday,
and remained several days. OF course he was
rejected, on account of his age. When asked
why he volunteered, he replied, that he want.
ed to show young men that old men were not
afraid to fight, and expressed his determine
ton to remain with the company if permitted
to do so. Men ninetytwo years old are sci.
dom found, and especially in a military camp.
Mr. Bates is said to be the father of twenty.
