A BEAUTIFUL THoUGHT.-A writer, whose
life has passed his meridian, thus eoquently
discourses upon the speedy fight of time;
Forty years once seemed long and weary
pilgrimage to make. 1t now seems but step;
and, yet, along the way, are broken shrines,
where a thousand hopes wasted to ashes, foot
steps sacred under their drifting dust, green
mounds where the grass is fresh with the
watering of tears; shadows even which we
would not forget. We garner the sunshine
Of those years, and with chastened steps and
hopes push on toward evening whose signal
light will soon be seen swinging where the
waters are still and the storms never beat"

A New Use FOR MUMMIEs-A few Sun
days ago we heard clergyman, in illustrate
ing point in his discourse, state that during
the late war, New York merchant at Alex
andria, in Egypt, having occasion to furnish a
ship with freight homeward, was led, partly
perhaps through fear of pirates, to load her
with mummies from the famous Egyptian
catacombs. On arriving here, the strange
cargo was sold to paper manufacturer in
Connecticut, who threw the whole mass, the
linen cerements, the pitumen and the poor re-
mains of humanity into the hopper, and had
them ground to powder, and from this was
made fair white paper. "And," added the
speaker, 'the words am now reading to you,
are written on this same paper Bunker HUI

MURDER AND ROBBERY ON THE CHESA

and his crew, consisting of white boy and
negro man, who have been engaged in running
oysters from Deals Island to Baltimore, are
supposed to have been murdered robbed and
thrown overheard while on their way home,
by party who came on board at Baltimore as
passenger. Capt. Pritchett had on his per-
son about $4,000 at the time. The supposed
murderer, who is very poor, landed at Nanti-
coke Point, his home, gave his wife $500, his
mother 5000, and bought canoe for which he
paid $780, and Immediately started for West
ern Virginia. Measures have been taken for

A Double-barrelIed PRAYER.

The Rev. Dr. Sunderland, formerly chap
lain of the Senate and late pastor of the
American chapel in Paris, lately opened the
Senate with prayer, in the course of which,
he gave thanks that Thou hast abroad expos
ed and put to shame the hypocrisy of an I'M
just nation, and art taking willy ruler in
the cunning of his own tolls" We presume
that the unjust nation" here mentioned is
Great Britain, and that the "wiy ruler" is the
emperor of the French, but we do not speak
positively on these points, and we respectfully
suggest that when political prayers are pub
lished they should be accompanied with ex-
planatory notes. 1t was once considered
good joke, when Major Russell. in the Sentt-
mel, said that the Rev. DR.. -, on some &C
casion made the most eloquent prayer that
ever was addressed 70 Boston audience, but
such statement has ceased to be joke and
has become very decided reality. Not only
have our sermons degenerated into political
harangues, but the fervent political zeal of
our ministers will find vent and utterances
even in supplications and thanksgiviugs to
the throne of grace rather than not find any
at all. We hope that the Reverend gentle
men, after firing one of his prayer barrels
against England and one against France, felt
relieved in his mind.
Persons of a skeptical turn Of mind might
suggest that in permitting that wiley ru-
Ter" Louis Napoleon to reign so long and 50
prosperously, and in delaying so long to take
him d" in the cunning of his tolls" Divine
Providence has been somewhat reniiss in its
duty, and needed the promptings Of men like
the Rev. DR.. Sunderland Or they might so
further, and come to the monstrous conclu-
sion that the ways of God in the government
of the world are not exactly the ways of the
ex-chapain of the Senate a conclusion which
it is obvious the reverend gentleman himself
has not arrived at, and is not likely to arrive
If the world could only be trusted to the
charge Of committee of American clergy
man, how much better it would go on than
how.-Boston Eoening Commercial,

A MARRIED MAN SENDS THE WRoNG LET

A MARRIED MAN SENDS THE WRONG LET
TER TO HIS WIFE.-We understand that we'll
known business man of this city, who has a
wife and family, has given rise to good deal
of talk by his attentions to a fair and frail
dansel. The gentleman is in New York. and
wrote an affectionate letter to the object of his
guilty passion, urging her to join him, and en-
closing fifty dollars to pay her travelling ex-
penses. At the same time he wrote d loving
letter to his loving wife, deplorins the urgency
of the business which kept him away from the
bosom of his family, and bewailing the tedious
ness and tastelessness of the hours unenivened
by her dear presence, By some odd fatality the
letters got mixed, and the wife got the one in
tended for the mistress. She had scented a
rodent for some time, but now there was nc
room for doubt Pocketing the fifty dollars as
so mueh good out of evil, she placed the fatal
letter in the hands of lawyer, who will pro-
coed to bring suit for divorce Indianapolis

The Fail Election.

Our friends are about going into a
canvass for the purpose of selecting a
District aud County ticket to be supper
ted at the Fall election. The various
candidates will, doubtless, have their
friends, who will urge their respective
claims with more or less Warmth This
is all right, but we would advise all tobc
temperate in their appeals, remembering
that we have another canvass to attend
to. One in which all will take a deep
interest. The fact that our whole ticket
is sure of success, from Governor down,
is no good reason why we should not
make grand rally. We can easily it,
crease our vote all round, and we must do
it. /, Let us go to work in good earnest
andIroll up an old fashioned majority for
General Geary, and, our word fer 1t, the
rest Of the ticket will 60 along. '. Il !

THE MEXICAN QUESTION. Sever.
al questions temporarily dropped dur.
ing the more exciting discussion OF
Freedmen's Bureau and Civil Rights
bills are now being again agitated in
Congressional and other circels. A
mong these are the Mexican question
and our relations with Frapce.-
There appears to be growing con-
viction in the minds of all who have
given any attention to the. subject that
Napoleon has no intention of withdraw
ing the French troops frem Mexico so
long as our Government maintains its
present wavering attitude. That the
vital interests of our Republican Govern
ment are endangered by the establish
ment of an empire on the American Con-
tinent is generally known and felt. The
project of guaranteeing the fifty millions
Mexican loan for the purpose Of helping
the Liberal Government, is certaily gain
ing favor among Congressman.

JUDGE TRIGG AND THE FREEDMEN s
BUREAU.-The executor of the estate Of
John S. Heron lately applied to the
United States Circuit Court of the Dis
trict Of West Tennessee; for an INDUCTION
against Gen. B. p. Runkle, Superintend-
ent of the Freedmen's Bureau, to re-
strain him from enforcing upon the per-
sonal property of the estate a judgment
in favor of a freedman. Judge Trigg
decided that the Freedmen's Bureau was
war measure, unknown to the laws !;
the exercise of military power, which
ceased with the end of the war; that
the tribunals it set up could not be rec
ognized as courts in the legal sense, and
that however valid their judgments or
DEGREES may have been during the war,
or by war measures, the Termination of
the war abrogated the courts created by
it, and that the recent proclamation of
the President of the United States. de-
>claring that an insurrection no longer
exists, is declaration of peace, which
sweeps from among us everything which
savors of military constraint upon the
rights of citizens and restores them the
ordinary and peaceful channels for the
assertion and enforcement Of those rights.

PERSONAL.

We copy the following complimentary
proceeding in reference to our esteemed
fellow citizen, DIR. A. W. Crawford, from
the Sic Precurseur," paper published
in the city Of Antwerp, where DIR. Craw-
ford har been residing for the last five
year, as Consul from the United States.
1t speaks well for;ths Doctors high posi-.
ton as gentleman aud officer.
Many of our principal merchants hav-
ing business relations with the United
States, gave a parting complimentary
dinner on Saturday last, at the restaur-
ant of "Rocher de Cdncaie" to Mr.. A.,
w. Crawford who has been discharging
the duties of United States Consul, at
Antwerp, for the last five years, and who
is now about to return to his own coun-
try. This ovation was very compliments
ry to the Honorable Consul Toast were
drank to the services he had rendered
to commerce, to his character, to his ur-
banity, and to his willingness always ex-
pressed, to oblige any one who had need
of his official Intervention. These
qualities SO highly appreciated, have
made him the object of meritorious
praise. In his reply the Honorable Con.
sui, said, he had accomplished but few
ofthe many things he wished to, and
spoke in eloquent terms of the great
struggle of which his country had been
the theatre for the last few years, of the
unheard of efforts that had been made
to attain this supreme result, the total alb
clifton of slavery.
lie thanked the commercial circle Of
Antwerp, for the kindly and sympathet-
ic welcome he had received, and assured
them that his successor would do no less
than he had done to favor the CONNER
cial relations between the two countries
He closed by saying, his every wish
was for the prosperity of the commerce Of
Antwerp arfl all its inhabitants.
We return our sincere thanks to the
Honorable Mr.. Crawford who leaves in
Antwerp many pleasant recollections.
