BACHELORS HA1A.-Read this ye miserable
forlorn old bachelors:
Bachelors Hall, what queer looking place IL Is :
Kape me from such all the days OF my ne
Sure, but think, what a burnin disgrace IL -
Never at all to BE- getting wife.
See the old bachelor gloomy and sad enough
Placing his taykitle over the hre'
Soon il tips over-St Patrick he s mao enough
(If be were presenD to fight with the squire
Now. like hog in a mortar bed walowing,
awkward enough to see him kneadng Dis
dough,)
Trotb. if The bread be could ate without swol-
lowing.
How it would favor bis palate you know.
His dishcloth is missng-the pigs are devourng
it;
In the pursuit be has broken his shin;
A plate wanted washing -grmaikin is securing it;
Thunder and turf, what pickle he's in!
Pots, dishes and pans, such greasy commodities,
Ashes and prate skins kiver the floor;
His cnpboards a storehouse Of comica oddities,
Things that had never been neighbors before.
lis meals being over, the tables left sitting so
Dishes take care of yourselves if you can,
But hunger returns, then he's foaming and fret
ting So
Och let him alone for baste Of man
Late in the night he goes to bed shiverin',
Never Bit is the bed made at all ;
lie crccps like a terrapin under the kiverin'.
Bad luck to the picture Of Bachelors Hall.

A RABBIT on A BATTLE FTEID-AN INCIDENT
OF THE FIGHT AT MELvERN HILL-A full grow n
rabbit had hid itself away in the copse Of a
fence, which separated two fields near the cen
ter. and most exposed portion Of the battle
groand. Rabbits are wont to spend the day al
most motonless and in seeming dreamy medita
ton This one could have but little thOught-if
rabbits think-wben choosing its place of re-
treat at early dawn, that ere ii was eveniide
there would be such an unwOnted and ruthless
disturbance During all the preparation for bat
tie made around its lair throughout the fore
noon. it nevertheless remained quiet. Early,
however. in the afternoon, when the rage Of
battle bad fairly begun, and shot and she'll were
falling thick aud fast in all directions, sh II
chanced to burst near the rabbits hiding place,
that he evidently considered it unsafe to tarry
longer. So, frightened almost to death, out be
sprung into the open field, and ran hither and
thiher with the vain hope Of finding a safe re
treat Whichever way it ran, cannOns were
laundering out their smoke and fire, regiments
of men were advancing or changing position,
horses gallOping here and there, shells bursting,
and solid shot tearing up the ground. Sometimes
it would squat down, and lie perfectly still, when
some new and sudden danger would again start
it into motion. Once more it would stop and
raise itself as high possible on It's hind legs,
and look all around for some place of possible
retreat
AT length that part Of the field seemed open
which lay in the direction opposite from where
the battle ragged most fercely. Thither it ac-
cordingly ran with all its remaining speed. I'm
observed by it, ho@ever, regiment was in that
direction, held in reserve and, like Wellington's
at Waterloo, was lying fat on the ground, in
order to escape the flying bullets. Ere the rab
bit seemed aware it had jumped into the midst Of
these men. 1t could go no fun ther, but presently
nestled down beside soldier, and tried to hide
itself under his arm. AS the man spread the
skirt of bis coat over the trembling fugitive, in
order to insure it all the protection in his power
to besow. he no doubt feelingly remembered how
much himself then needed some higher protec-
tion, under the shadow of whose arm might be
hidden his own defenseless head from the fast
multiplying missiles Of death scattered in all di-
rectOns
1t was not long, however, before the regiment
was ordered up aud forward. From the protec-
ti0n and safety granted, the tmid creature had
evidently acquired confidence in man-as the
boys wont to say, " had been tanned" As
the regiment moved forward to the front Of the
battle, it hoped along, tame seemingly as
kitten, close to the feet of the soldier who had
bestowed the needed protection. Wherever the
regiment went during all the remaining part of
that bloody day and terrible battle, the rabbit
kept close beside its new friend. When night
came on, and the rage of battle bad ceased, it
finally, unmolested and quietly hoped away. in
order to find some one Of its old and familiar
hAunts.

PARsoN BRowNLow ON EMANCIPArIoN.-The
Parson writes from Detroit to the Philadelphia
Press, and in his letter makes this significant an
uouucement:
"If the policy of the President is, as under
stand it, to free the slaves Of rebels in ms, and
to compensate loyal men for theirs, | am with
him allowing, does the proclamation, all re
beliOus States three months to come back in,
and thus secure their slaves. The measure is use
less in the revOlted States il can't be enforced
because the most simple post Office law can't be-
enforced. | think the measure useless, as | do
much Of the legislation of the last Congress, but
it will quiet the consciences OF that class of radi
cal men among you who are afflicted with that
incurable disease | call nigger on the BRAIN
The only point in the whole thing is this a.: The
rebels intended when pressed to The wall, as they
will be, to issue proclamation freeing all the
negroes themselves, as a last desperate means OF
inducing England to acknowledge their ndepen
dence. This done, they would have placed the
United States Government in the false attitude
Of fighting to perpetuate slavery. Aud all there
is Of the matter is simply ibis Mr.. Lincota has
takeH tie StdJt Of JeF DdUiS."

NEWSPAPERS AND ADVERTISING ACCoUNTS-A
large number of business men--or. at least, men
who are in basin, ss-look upon newspapers and
newspaper bills as secondary matters for serious
consid, ration For instance, if man sells out
aud quits business, he will repulse the printers
bill until the very last moment, and then, if he
can get away without paying it at all, be is sure
to do so. lie seems to think that there is no par
ticular harm in this lille swindle" it is only a
newspaper bl-it don't amount to anything -
Another error which some men fall into: they
send, or bring, advertisement to the Office,
order it in, and depart without any instruction
whatever as to the number OF insertions or the
! length Of time they desire it to continue in the
paper. The publisher fulills his portion Of the
contract, inserts the notice, and there it remains
until bis particular time for collecting arrives ;
! be makes out bis bill at regular prices (he ad
vertsement has been in say one, two or three
mouths,) presents it, aud is greeted with look
of astonishment, and the averment, "Oh, only
intended my notice to have two or three lnSer-
ti0ns- -phaw, | can't pay this bill" Many men
change their location aud say nothing to the pub
Usher, aud their newspaper is continued until the
time comes to collect, when he is Informed that
" that fellow left here six months ago yOu had
better stop his paper" During all this time
some other ''feller" has been taking the run
away's paper from the place where it is deiv-
cred, and boastng that be had a " good thing on
that editor" These are all very uce tricks, but
they are regular swindles, and far beneath a
square out thief! The above incidents have oc
CURED to the unfortunate TIegraph within the
last three months, perpetrated 10y men who
claimed respectability and fraterna friendship
Hereafter we shall publish the name of every
man who swindles US, or attempts to swindie us,
in any such manner, without respect TO his stand
ing in society or any where else. We shall in
varably fulfil our contracts, or shOw good reasons

THE SUEZ CANAL.-lt is well known that the
lStbmus OF Suez is a neck Of land which separates
the Mediterranean from the Red Sea. The dis
lance from one to the other is thirty leagues.
The Canal of Suez will thus be about eighty
miles in length, one hundred and forty feet wide
aud twenty-four feet deep, a depth sufficient for
vessels of 5000 tons. 1t will cost 500, 600, 600
and will probably be finished within three or four
years from the present time.
On the route of the Suez Canal there are three
lakes The first, near the shores Of the Medter
ranean, is Lake Merzaleh the second and
largest, is Lake Timsah, located about midway !;
and the third is the Bitter Lake, about twenty
miles from SueZ, near which city will be the ter
minus Of the canal.
The navigation through the Suez Canal will
shorten the voyage for ships going from ports OF
the Mediterranean to India $4,000 miles /; for
those going from the European ports of the At
lntic, 5000 miles from northern ports of the
United States, 1000 miles. Consequently the re-
ducion of expenses OF ships passing through the
short cut will be about so per cent.
From the statistical reports published in 1855,
the tonnageof the various ships igating from
ports of Europe to India was, in lSj3 1000, 900
tons The navigation between the United States
and Iudia was 100000 tons. Total, 2,280000
tons
The capital which will be spent in the con
stTuciOn of the canal is estimated, as we have
sad at $50 900, 600. Vessels going through will
pay at The rate of ten francs per ton Qess than
two d0llars), which, on 22S0 900 tons, give an
annual income of near Sc 100000. In addition
TO this the culture of 100000 acres OF land
granted by the Viceroy of Egypt to the com
pany. aud the toll paid by boats navigating on
the fresh water canal, will amount to $4,000, 900
Total, 100000
Thus the annual income will be ten millions of
dollars, or about l6 per cent. on the capital.
ILLUSTRATED FRUrr.-A German journal pub
fishes the following:
At Vienna, for some time past fruit dealers
have sold peaches, apples, pears, apricots, etc,
ornamenled with armorial BEARINGS, designs, mi
tals, aud names The impressions of these
things are effected in very simple manner. A
fine fruit is selected at the moment it is beginning
TO ripen-that is to take a red color-and paper.

Alter while the envelop is removed, and the
part OF the fruit which has been covered, is bril-.
lantly white. BY this invention the producers

Amusing Incident.

The Cuban Messenger, the En-.
glish paper at Havana, has the follow
ing:
As drayman was fnrious!y beating
his lanl, half-starved mule, near Gov
eminent Square, Havana, he was as
founded to hear the animal exclaim !:
Enough! yon brute!'
The drayman looked aghast, and
searched under his dray and around
his mule to fad the origin OF this sep
ulchral voice, when he was horrifed
to hear from the animal to all appear
enccs:
"You are brute ~
The drayman was dumbfnunded'
and trembled like an aspeL leaf, and
dropped his whip as if stung by an ad'
der. Tie blessed himself, ani was
about falling on his knees when he
again heard:
81 was your mother once upon a
time ?'
This capped the climax, ami q gen
tleman from the crowd that hal gath
cred around, endea,ored to explain
to. the terror stricken drayman, that
sometimes disembodied spirits return
to the world in the form of animals
Just at this moment, Signor Blitz, &C.
companied by his two friends, who
Had been looking on the strange scene
and enjoying the fun, adjourned to the
Union Coffee. House, on the neighbor-
ing corner. and left the crowd endeav-
oriny to induce the animal To speak
again and the drayman embracing the
mule il a most filial manner.
