The Domestic TYRA>T Iii, to me
a disgusting sight to see, as we sometimes
do, the wife and children of family kept
in constant terror Of the selfish bashaw at
the head of the house, and ever on the

his whims and fancies Sometimes, where
he is hnrdwrought and ANXIOUS man,

bread, and whose life is the sole STAY, it is
needful that be should be deferred to in

aud the overs strained nervous systeu,

self, leaving them to the joy less routine Of
their unvared life. 1t is sad to see tho
sudden hush that falls upon the little things
when he enters the house; how their sports
arc cut short, and they try to steal away
from the room. Would that l were the
Emperor Of Russia, and such man nv

Ihat would be his suitable punishment; for
he would never feel that worthier mortals
would regard as the heavier penalty by far,

longer of this state of things will bring
about a result one way or another. It is
impossible that the treasuary of the United
States can meet, and continue to meet this
state of things sixty days longer, and an
ignominious peace must be submitted to
unless we sec to it that the credit Of the
country is sustained, and sustained too by
the conviction going forth from this hall
to the people Of the country that VIC will
treat as traitors, not only those who Aro
bold and manly enough to meet us face to
face in the field Of strife, but all those also
who clandestinoly and stcalthily suck the
il.ea!ood from US in the mighty struggle.
Whatever measures may emanate from the
Committee of Ways and Means to meet
and retrieve this state Of things, they will
but fall like dead pail upon the public
unless they give this assurance, that these
extraordinary and extreme measures to
resusclate, revive and rcplentish the treas
ury, are not made to fill farther and lon.
ger the already gorgcd pockets of the pub
lie plundcrers. How then are we to con-
tribute in this matter to retrieve public
confidence in our public men here, If it be
not when these appropriations come up
that we probe them, that we ascertain
whether there be anything in them that at
this moment can be spared Our press
ing duty now is to protect and save the
treasury from further wholesale or other
system Of plandering. In conclusion, he
argued against paying for printing the
Treasury notes, on the ground that the
contract was improperly obtained.

his weekly visits, after the entire vocabul-

can approciNto, had become completed,
exhausted, he brought up the character OF
young female friend Of his-with whom
he being the bctrothcd Of another, was on
terms OF intimacy not exactly according
to Gunter. He spoke at some lcug h, and
with warmth of feeling by no means
pleasing to his companion in laudation of
the merits Of his particular friend, and in
conclusion observed
"She is noble, generous, hearted girl
and one who is all right here"
The remark was accompanied with a.
gesture which brought his hand in close
proximity with his heart.

BY DR.. I. Clay Maddux, who WAS called In to
see the wounded man. The doctor thinks
that either the mnske, ball or buckshot which
came ont above the sliam wonld have proven
fatal. We learn that another tugacious sar-
key was SHOT ct oy Il soldier yesterday morn
iug near St. James Church, BIZ. luckily with
out fatal resnlt---ths carEey's heels proving
more nimbls than the ballet. IL seems that
there should Is some limit set to the unbrIdled
iicsnsr now allowed to soldiers.
