CIVILIZATION WEAEExs AS WE'LL AS STRENGTH
ENS.-Soclety never advances, il racedes on one
SIDE as 1t gains on the other 1t undergoes con
siderable changes; it is barbarOus it is Christian
ized, 1t Is rich, it is scientific, but this change is
not amelI0rated. For everything that is given,
something is taken. Society acquires new arts,
ana loses old instincts. What contrast between
the well.clad, reading, writing, thinking Ameri-
can, with watch, pencil and bill of exchange
IN his pocket, and the naked New Zealander,
whose property is club, spear q nat, and an
undivided twentieth Of shed to sleep under But
compare the health of the two men, and you will
see that the white man has lost his aboriginal
strength. f,the traveller tells us truly, strike the
savage with broad axe, in day or two the flesh
shall unite and heal as if you had struck the blow
INTO soft pitch, and the same blow shall send the
white man to his grave.
The civilized man has built coach but has
lost the use of his feet. He is supported on
clutches, but lacks the support of muscle. He
has q fine Waltham watch, but he fails of the skill
otell the hour by the sun. A Greenwich nautical
almanac he has, but being as sure of the informa-
ton when he wants it the man in the street does
not know star in the sky. The solstce he does
not observe; the equinox he knows as little, aud
the whole bright calendar of the year is without a
dial in his mind His note books impair his memory;
his libraries overload his wit; the insurance office
increases the number of accidents; and may be a
question whether machinery does not cucumber
whether we have not lost by refinement some
energy, by christianity entrenched in forms and
establishments some yigor of wild virtue.

Of eleven Northern States, in PHILADELPHIA,
Immediately after the adjournment Of the
southern Loyalist' convention, is regarded
by the New 4 ork-Hera1d as one of the most
alarming and significant signs of the times.
It's understood that a revolutionary pro
grarnme was entertained by them, in order to
prepare arms and efficient organization against
the conservative party and the President in
case the radicals should be ia danger of losing
the reins Of power through the result Of the
fall State elections. In such a contingency
their policy would BE to impeach and remove
the President, and to put Senator Wade. or
some other violent partizan in his place. They
would also resist the power Of Mr.. johnson

Interesting Divorce Case.

I A divorce case, which has been lately
pending in our courts, and to which has at
tached something of interest, was decided on
Wednesday by Judge Meredith, who issued
a decree in favor of Mrs. Jessie B. Harvie,
plaintiff, absolving her from the matrimonial
bonds formerly existing between herself and
Robert Harvie.
The suit was prosecuted by a. Noise, Jr.,
counsel for the plaintiff, who is we'll known.
pretty and popular ex.actress aud danseuse,
having formerly figured on stage under her
maiden name of. Jessie Warner, aud, rumor
says, that, undaunted by the unfortunate ter
mination of loves first young dream, the fair
divorced. proposes soon to link herself in hy-
mental bonds with some other daring spirit.
The husband found consolation in the loss
of his wife by the unexpected gain of a for
tune, for on the very day on which the divorce.
was granted he received a letter,from his faith
er (who was supposed to be dead) }, announcing
his return from foreign parts, and Offering
his son the sum of Sl2. 900 with which to
commence .business.-R Richmond Enquirer.

RI ON the St. Louis Democrat, 18TH
Suicide o. IN Editor of the atlanta Era,

About week ago, DR.. B. L. seago, as
sstant editor of the Atlanta Era, arrived in
this city, and took room IL 'he Atth story
of the Southern Hotel. He appeared quite
melancholy, and had but little to say :" any
one about the hotel. On Thursday, b''is
were sent to the Office from an apothecar,
for one ounce of morphine and three pre-.
scriptiOns composed OF morphine and chloro-
form. The last seen of him was on FRIDAY
night. At o'clock yesterday Sunday his
room was entered through the transom.s and
his dead body found lying on the bed.
Coroner O'Rcilly was summoned, and an
inquest was held Several letters written by.
the deceased short time before his death
were found on the table, showing that he
had taken his own life. No money was found
among his effects, nor had he deposited any
at the Office of the hotel. He was about
thirty years of age. Several letters, written
in pencil, were found,

! a Remarkable Case,

~ -. H-ss sfssia ~ = 7
{ A remarkable case, in which Boston lady
is now on trial before the superior Court at
Hartford, Connecticut The particulars are
given by the Hartford 1ast, as follows
A lady, Mrs. Deshon, now Mrs. Mary Jane
R8nd, residing in Boston, had boy by her
first husband The boy had several singular
marks on his person, and slso a serious i'm
pediments in his speech. When the child
was five and a half years oldit died suddeu-
~ while its mother was asleep. The singular
appearance of the boy led her TO have an au-
topsy made, and she afterward prosecuted the
attending physician and apothecary who had
furnished the medirine. Rufus Ghoate was
her counsel at this time. Some two OF three
years after Mrs Rand Observed a child in
Bostonswkich resembled hers so closely that
she followed it for some time, but finally lost
sight of itsandsits attendants. Two wears or.
more elapsed before she heard of it again, and
found that it was in the Asylum for The Deaf
and Dumb in this city, being charity pupil
from the State of Massachusetts, A picture
of her husband, whom She claims was the
father of this child, was shown TO him; when
he instantly exclaimed. as well as ihescould,
and in the presence of several witnesses,
That's my father; he lives in Boston,
A careful examination has been made of
the boy by physician who attended him du-
ring three months sickness, and he says
that "God might have made two persons SO
near alike, but that this was the first instance
ofthe kind that had come to his knowledge
The marks of the boy now here correspond
exactly to the one he attended, and w1o was
afflicted with "a serious rupture; which the boy
at the Asylum had also: Mrs Rand,s testi-
mony occupied the court during the entire
day, Tuesday. and her counsel, Mr.. Eaton,
has considerable more testimony to introduce;
which, he thinks, cannot fail to convince any
reasonable person that the. child of Mrs.
Rand was taken away whilst its mother slept
and another one substituted.
On the other hand, the putative mother,
Mrs. Phillips, Staples, Wilder and Frost she
having married several times, claims to be
able to substantiate her claim to the bow, who
she says is hers, by Mr.. Frost He was ad-
mitted to the Asylum some four years ago,
under the name of Edward Frcst, and is now
thirteen years of age, and, as we have said
before, as charity pupil of Massachusetts,
but during this time his mothe, or she who
Claims to be such, had paid little or no at
tention to him.
The case is one of the strangest on record.
and will probably last for several days, and a
great deal of interest is manifested in the re.
suit. sa,,Sea assE 4-
