The Trial efJefreIson Davis.

It will hereafter be a cause Of con-
slant regret If the trial Of JEFFERSON
DAVIS shall take place in the local
court Of tie District of Columbia.

cult, it is easy 10 penetrate the rea-
son Of. But since his political aslil-
atoms forbid him to occupy his con-
spicous and appropriate place in a
great historic drama, as Chef. Justice
MARSHALL did at the trial Of AARON
BURR, one or another of tie associ
ate justicesmightf far better discharge
the duty which conflicts wilhtthe am
sbition Of their chef than the District
Of Columbia court, which Whateye,
the ability Of its judges, has no rres
tige, no history, no venerable associ
ations no national fame, which can
determine nothing, decide nothing
and must, after all its labors are en-

of the trial Of Mr.. DAVIS in plecisel,
the unsettled state wherein they nov
rest. with no argument more convin

Have gone along smoothly and quietly, for
the past week, save here and there, the blus-
tering and reeling Of o few yotaries Of Tan
glefoot, who have, we are glad to know, been
duly attended to in every instance We
hear it limited that several Shanghai depots
have been disturbed in their night vigils
and came up missing, and few pailiDgs
winged themselves to unknown parts. But,
we are assured, that time and attention will
5rectify these little human frailties and grad.

their good behaviour, strictly attending to

BARBARoUs STYLEs.-No sooner does
the Southern breeze begin to watt the
perfume Of warmer and SUMMER
CLINE to our nostrils, than our feme-
nine friends begin to bud and bloom
with the vagaries and fanoies of spring
styles OF course all innovations upon
established usage are regarded at first
with ridioule, but at last are adopted
as beautiful and becoming. 1t would
go beyond our purpose to mention all
fanoiful changes in dress but we
met with a miraculous achievement in
hair dressing few days ago that
astonished all our preconceived ideas
of beauty, symetery and fitness
Indeed, it was the most magnificent
erection Of hirshute architecture ever
witnessed by the White man in
America" 1t consisted Of an exquis-
ito Africo American frizzlo Of the en-
tire front hair, arranged in squatty
wad upon the top of the head, and
had strange resemblance of Poland
ROSTERS top-knot, made of genuine
African wool. 1t gives additional
height to the form, shows more phre-
biological development, and gives to
the eyes the appearance Of having a
job of gazing to do by the thousand.
We do not advise our lady friends to
try this process, as they are more
likely to get their eyes opened beyond
shutting than they are to attract at
tsntion of any but some country fellow
whose whole admiration will be lost
in wondering how they achieved so
fine kink. A similar arrangement
of the hair, with the addition of SPLEEN
did specimens of tattooing upon the
face and forehead appeared in Har-
per's Monthly some years ago, but
the style was lcredited to Fejee Is
lander or some other barbarian. 1t
is easy to sec, however, that the editor
made an egregious blunder.

On Monday morning, March 18th,
at about o'clock fire took in the

more wooden buildings and large
amount of other property. The fire
caught from stove-pipe running from
Bardine & Smiths Grocery and Pro-

anos in the sleeping rooms of the
Exchange Hotel above, out of which
some of the guests had so to hasten
their exit as to leave little time for
securing their effects. The structures
in the vicinity all being of wood the
flames spread with great rapidity and
at one time threatened the destruction
Of the buildings in the block to the
East, and the Everett House, on the
north of the burnt district, they were

EeiehbOrhoOa News,

CoLUHBIAEA CoUNTY.-The Wellsville
Union says that on last Saturday, Mrs.
Charles Montgomery, who is living near
the mouth of Yellow Creek, attempted to
commit suicide by taking arsenic and sugar
of lead. She took the poisonous drugs at
the Railroad Depot, and started for the
residence of the person with whom
she was living, about mile distant. On
her way she was taken with such pains
that she screamed, attracting the attention
of some person near at hand. Medical as
sistance was sent for, and her chances for
recovery are fair. She had taken too much
poison. She stated that she was led to the
rash act by the bad treatment she had re-
eeiVed from her friends.
