MATILDA HERON,

As chaste and classic delineator of
every character she undertakes, Miss.
Heron may have her equals somewhere in
Christendom; but she certainly has no
superior. During her present visit to the
sage-brush, she has appeared in some OF
her best characters, and the public COM
mendation has in each case been univer-
sal. Her "Medea" we have already lauded
in heroic song. But there is no character
in which Miss. Heron shines more brilli-
antry than in 1.-THE Patriot Lady" As a
demonstration of her power in this role,
we will state that the magnificent National
Ensign now waving on Mountain David
son was purchased by Matilda Heron.

BY her. Proudly it waves above the
Silver Cities of Nevada, and our prayer
as we gaze upon its cleaning folds, is
that the histrionic fame of the fair donor
NAV be as worldwide and as everlasting
as the honor of "Old Glory" We have
no doubt that if the officers Of the SAM
.ary Fund, would, at the conclusion Of
Miss. Heron's engagement make arrage-
ments for the use of the theatre, that lady
would eheerfully contribute her attractive
name to the bill for the benefit of that

Henry CLAW and Edward Everett.

1t il related that Gen. Harrison, while
President, nominated Edward Everett for
Minister to England. The nomination
was referred to the Committee on Foreign
Relations, Of which VIM. R. King, of Ala
bama, was chairman, and who years after
wards was elected Vice President on the
ticket with Franklin Pierce. When the
question came before the Senate, Mr.. King
made long and vehement speech against
Mr.. Everett's confirmation on the ground
that he was ga New England Abolition
ist." During this speech Henry Clay
left his seat and walked up and down
the Senate Chamber with his hands be-
hind him, apparently in deep meditation.
Mr.. King said: II tell the Senate and
the country that if a, gentlemen holding
the abolition views which Mr.. Everett
holds shall be confirmed by this Senate to
represent this Government in one of the
highest courts Of Europe, that the Union
will be dissolved" Mr.. Clay. stretching
out his arm and saying Mr.. President"
almost without an intermission or break
in the debate, spoke out in his clear and
sonorous voice, "And ! tell you, Mr..
President II gentleman Of the ability and
standing of Edward Everett, of Massach-
sets, shall be rejected by this Senate for q
position which he is 50 well qualified to
gil and adorn, for such reasons as are set
forth BY the Senator from, Alabama, that
this Union is already dissoyed.,

THE BELLS.

We regretted, yesterday. to be called
upon to chronicle the fact that two clergy
men in Virginia City had hesitated and
sranmered about allowing the bells of the
churches over which they preside to join
in the peal of Joy which announced to the
people the downfall of the rebellion, and
the return of peace to oar long distracted
and suffering country. We do not know
what special creed or whether any creed
owned that ancient bell in Philadelphia
which on the 4th day of July, lI76. obey
ed the injunction inscribed upon its rim,
and Proclaimed Liberty throughout the
land and to all the inhabitants thereof"
We imagine. however. that if either of
these Virginia priests had been alive and
at the christening of that bell, they would
have objected to its Inscriptions heretical.
There is something about this matter that
requires explanation; and it may occur,
some day, that the people will demand
chat explanation in terms that will admit
Of neither denial nor equirocation. The
occasion Of this rejoicing was, firstly, the
triumph Of the constituted authorities of
the United States over long existing and
powerful rebellion. Secondly, it was the
triumph of human freedom over human
slavery. Thirdly. it was a triumph Of
free government over despotism. For
these triumphs, the people rejo:ced; but
their joy found no response in the bosoms
of these Amounted of the Lord. And
whys That is what we desire to know.

The CHINA AND INDIA OPIUM Trade
Patna, one Of the wealthiest towns IN In
dia, and the second in rank, is the great
opium district, especially of Bengal. There
is q large factory for making it up, and
packing it to send to China, which must
receive it, no!ens volsns. The Idian Gov
eminent must sell its opium, or it cannot
exist. Thirty-fve and forty thousand
chests are made annually. 1t all belongs
to the Government, and is raised by the
authorities, the natives being paid fixed
prices FOR making it, the whole being
under charge of official agents. The poppy
is brought in during February and March,
in pulp, leaf. or stalks, as may be. The
pulp is worked TO certain consistence,
and looks like a thick black paste or
dough. It is then rolled into large balls,
eight inches in diameter, then covered
with thin poppy paste, and over that, q
cover of poppy leaves is pressed and dried
until it is quite tough. When dried, it is
rolled in oil paper, and put up in small
boxes, one ball in each, for China. II
produces revenue to the Government Of
over S22, 900, 900. Thus it appears that
opium is the death of the Chinaman, but
the very life of the Indian Government.

About Pens.

Pens of some sort have been in use from
very ancient times, adapted to the materiai
upon which the written characters were 10
be impressed. Upon stone or me'aic
plates gravers of steel served Tor wiring
and such are referred to BY Job in speak
ing of "an iron PEN" For the waxen
tablets of the ancients metallic stylus was
employed, one end of which was sharpen-
ed for marking, and the other was Hatten-
ed for erasine the marks and smoothing
the wax. 1t was also the practice IN an
Gent times, as it is among the Chinese at
the present day, to paint the letters With
a fine hair pencil. Pens of reeds also were
made at a very early period, tor the use OF
q fluid ink upon papyrus. The reed Sc
lected for this purpose is described as small
and hard, and about the size OF a swan
quill. II was found in Egypt and Arme-
MIA, and Cairo and Alexandria were IA
nous markets in which it was sold.
Along the shores of the Persian Gulf reeds
are still collected for this purpose, and are
distributed throughout various parts Of
the eastern countries, being better adapted
to the ink and paper employed in those
regions than any other kind Of pens. The
introduction of common writing paper
rendered necessary pens of finer charac-
ter, and caused demand for goose quilts.
A great trade grew up in these articles,
which even the more recent introduction
of steel and gold pens has not materially
diminished. Poland and Russia are large
" engaged in it. In a single year St.
Petersburg has furnished England over
$1,000, 900 of quilts. Within the last fifty
years steel pens of various kinds have
been manufactured in Great Britain, and
the number made annually in Birmingham
has been estimated at one thousand at one
thousand millions. The attempts to es-
tablish this manufacture in the United
States have been found difficult on account
of the competition of the manufacturers of
Birmingham. The art of making gold
pens has, however, been carried to the
highest perfection in New York. The
machinery used for this purpose is curious
and elaborate. more than twenty distinct
operations being required in the produc-
ton Of single pen.

MORE BRITISH NEUTRALITY. - Many
intelligent foreigners resident among our
selves. who profess to be neutral, speak
admiringly Of the heroism of the rebels in
resisting so long the power of the North !;
but they do not seem to take into consid-
Grafton that the rebels from the commence
ment of the war down to the present time,
have had nearly the whole commercial
class of Britain for their active allies, the
whole British empire for base Of sup
plies, and British ships, British seamen,
British cannon, British munitions of war,
and British falsehood arrayed against US.
As fast as we have destroyed one British
pirate another has been firred out in Eng
land to take her place. We have captured
the Georgia and Florida, and sent to the
bottom of the English Channel the Ala
bama but their places were Immediately
supplied by the Tallahassee, Chickamauga,
Olustee and Sea King alias Shenandoah
all British built, all armed with British
cannon, and all manned by British sea-
men. The Sea King slipped out of q
British port, was supplied with her arma-
ment and crew by another British steamer,
the Laurel, which was'also converted by
Britons into pirate, and all this the
British call strict neutrality! The Sea
King burned the whaling bark Edward, Of
New Bedford, near the equator on the 4th
of December, and the schooner Lizzie n.
Stacey, Capt. Archer, from Boston for
Honolulu, on the l4th Of November, and
landed their crews at Tristan d'Acunha.
whence they were taken by the United
States steamer 1roquois, and transferred to
the Cape Of Good Hope. The Sea King
had destroyed several other vessels, ard
received supplies frum England to enable
her to continue her work of destruction.
We hope foreigners, who speak Of the
"heroism of the South" will not omit
awarding Great Britain the credit due for
her part in this war.-Boston Commercial
