and greatly Rstonished. We are happy TO
learn that no one was killed by the mishap.

Those who neglect to advertise lost arti-
cles make mistake. 1t is true that many
things thus advertised are not received; but
many dollars are paid for insurance where
no fire or other loss occurs. Many articles
are thus recovered-for instance, two were
returned through our Office on Saturday,
costing the advertiser but twenty-five cents
each, while the lost property was worth
much more than that amount; and we very
frequently have the pleasure of restoring
advertised articles of value. Pay the trihlng
price always, and regard it as good invest
ment, for all honest people gladly return what
they find, and, if poor, the reward should be
cheeIfully paid them. The trifling sum paid
for "Wsn" often saves the advertiser q
large amount of trouble, and brings the de.
sired article at once. Let those who want
any thing try an investment of twenty five

jim LANE IN PALAETToDoM.-The Chicago
Tribune recommends the Administration to
send Jim Lane to South Carolina, and re-
call that lamentable failure, Sherman" The
Tribune says:
There is field that would suit Lanes
genius exactly. He would there be in his
glory. His presence at the head of our troops
would spread terror and dismay among the
rattlesnake traitors of Palmetlodom. The
twenty thousand Northern soldiers at Port
Royal, into whom Lane would infuse his
magnetism, would become endowed with
the fighting power of fifty thousand men, led
by such an officer as Sherman, and the rebels
would rather encounter one hundred thou.

The Cotton suppIy in KpgInud.

Tho New York World says that at con-
sumption of thirty-fve thousand bales per
week, (which is more than the average of
the past few weeks,) there is enough cotton
now in Liverpool to supply the British spin
ners for seventeen weeks, or four months,
and there we're sixty thousand bales of Su.

above statistics we're made up. 1t needs no
argument to demonstrate that if the pres
ent depressed condition of trade continues
ss it must if the South continues its resist
snce to the authority Of the government,
ErRlsnd's supply of cotton is in no danger
of being exbssuted in year. Indeed, Brit
ish writers have already discovered this
fact. One of them recently said that Amer.
ican cotton was missed ct 6rst as familiar
face, but is now only occasionally recalled
TO mind, and will soon be forgotten alto
gether In the mean time, we are quite un.
able to respond TO the demands of France

the scale required by them would force up
prices in this market to point which would
cause the greatest inconvenience, at the
present junctuIe, to our people, and if 9
moderate advance should not check the ex

Marshal Pelissier, Duke of Magenta, landed
at Spanish town recently on a visit to his
wlfe's relations. Because the General COM
handing there did not put on his Sunday
Globes to meet him, the vulgar, pompous
Duke rated him in the most insoient style
for his want of respect &c. The Spaniard
was equally fiery, but expressed his wrath
in cool irony, SO that the Arab burner shut
up in moment. Louis Napoleon felt it his
duty to apologize to the QGasn OF Spain for
tbe circumstance, but could not reprimand
Pelissier, as the latter represents an ugly
and powerful Orleans interest.

slightly embarrassed male passenger who

SANDSTONE HOUSES CRUMBLIEa TO PIECES
Sandstone has come into general use recently
for the embellishment Of cities, aud the most
pretentious private residences and new pub
lie buildings are constructed of this mate
rial This stone is obtained from the neigh
borhood of New York but it appears by
statement in the Scientific American that
the sandstone buildings in that city are
crumbling to pieces, aud that q ques-
tion-the preservation of stone by chemi-
ca meaDs-will soon come up similar to
that in London regarding the new Houses
Of Parliament which are crumbling in
the same way. The American says:--
Even the stone SO carefully selected for
Trinity Church is rapidly dsintegrating,
and throughout the city, steps, posts aud
sills, as well as the stone Of our brOwn-sto ue
houses, are peeliug Off scales, which fall to
the earth mass of rubbish. Some good
mineIe'oRists say that, as a general rule,
sandstone will not endure exposure to the
weather more than thirty years" There
may be some peculiarly in the atmosphere
of New York which hes more destructive
effect upon sandstone than here. Examiua
ton will, however, chow whether this is the
fact OF not.
