and manufactured at Chester, Pennsylvania,
by Messrs. Short and Duer. The success at

of the Elizabeth river, just one year ago,
the barracks of the enemy were burnt down
BY these shells. and he was compelled to
evacuate his position. Their use at Malvern
Hill caused the greatest consternation and
destruction among the rebels. Itis believed

NEXT to " a woman with grievance,
woman with lawsuit is a perpetual bore to
her friends and acquaintances or, rather, TO
her acquaintances alone, for she never has
any friends. One Miss Fag, of Landon, is
such person. Some years ago she brought
an action against certain nobleman in whose
family she had lived in some capacity; the
ground of the action being her unlawful dis
missal from his service. The Court decided
that she had no cause for action, and the
matter was settled by her attorney. She then
brought an action against her attorney for
improperly settling the case in this action
she failed, and thereupon commenced suit
against her last lawyer for mismanaging that
case; when half through with this trial her
counsel threw up his brief, satisfied that the
suit was groundless; then came an applica-
ton for new trial, which was dacided ad-
versely by the present Chief Justice Black

to bring an action against the Chief Justice

he then governed had never existed upon
the earth before. The city of Rome number
ed four million of inhabitants, and its cir
cumference was fifty miles. -
The character of the conqueror underwent
a remarkable change, developed a spirit Of
pure patriotism. He commenced n series of
vigorous reforms Barbarous customs were
abolished, the rights of the citizens protected,
and the welfare of the community promoted
in innumerable ways. He then assembled
the Senate and resigned his imperial power,
expressing the wish to retire o'private life.
The Senate unanimously besought him to
withdraw his resignation. He consented,
with apparent reluctance, to retain the cares
of empire for ten years. All parties now

Senate voted that the name August should
ever be attached to his name of Caesar. From
that time Octavius was dropped, and he has
been hencefoEth known TO the world as Cae-
sar augustus. In honor of him the eighth
month in the year was named August. Ca-
sar Augustus was thirty-six years of age
when he commenced his legitimate and un-
disputed reign, which continued. with al
most unbounded popularity, for forty years.
Fourteen years before the death of Caesar
Augustus, our Savior was born in Bethlehem
of Judea. During the last ten years of Ca-
sar's reign he associated with him Tiberius,
his adopted son. With advancing years he
displayed additional gentleness, courteous
ness and philanthropy. When seventy Six
years of age he accompanied Tiberius to
Beneventum, about one hundred and fifty
miles from Rome. Here he was taken sick,
and returning slowly in his carriage died
peacefully at Nola. at three O'Clock in the af
ternoon of the 10Th of August. His last
words, addressed to his wife, were "Fare
