Chasers Of the hides of the beef in the

ny butchers do not use proper care in

TEXT AND CoMMEST.-Greeley saws

"The defeat of Mr.. Roebuck is an indi-
cation that no statesman who makes ami
mostly toward this country the cornerstone
of his policy can now look for popularity
in England. American influence is ra-
pidly spreading and roofing itself among
the masses of the Old World, and the
growth of liberal sentiments must be freely
recognized by any one who would hereafter
become leader in English politics."
Per contra, the English correspondent of
the New York Times says:
"The temper of the people of at least
some portions of England was shown the
other day at political meeting in Birken-
head. One of the speakers alluded to an
objection made to Mr.. Laird, their repre-
sentative, because he said he was proud OF
his connection with the Alabama. Well,
said the speaker, q for the matter Of that, |
think we were all of us proud Of it = He
struck popular chord that instantly vibra-
ted into tumultuous cheering"

The never-ending discussion about mar
riages of consanguity has recently &C
ouired new interest by the position OF
several prominent scientific men against
the theory of these marriages being always
injurious. The most recent utterance on
the subject is by an eminent English ply
siologist, DR.. Child, of Oxford, in new
work entitled "Essays on Physiology cal
Subjects" After discussing the various
opinions now held, and the statistics that
have been adduced of the bad results of such
marriages, he concludes that there is no
evidence the existence ofany law of nature
distinct from the ordinarylaws of inheritance
which would be infringed by the union OF
blood relations. Attn same time ne admits
that in the present state of the health OF the
human race these laws ofinheritance would
generally discourage such unions in the same
degree in which they are forbidden by
positive enactment.

CLEVER RCsE OF 4 BOSTON STORE
EEEpER-THE "MoURNING DoDGE.-Some
months since young man opened dry
and fancy goods store in small frame
huildinr on Winnisimett street, Chelsea.
He had on hand quantity of hoop skirts
and other minor articles used for ladies'
wearing apparel. and did a small business
in his line of trade. On Monday last o
large piece of mourning Grape was found
tied to the door Of the store, and the shut
tiers closed. This caused inquiries If the
proprietor was dead, or was there death
in the family; but no person could give
the desired information.
The Grape remained on the door until
Wednesday, when it was discovered that
the proprietor had been inside all the
time-not dead, but packing up his stock
in trade-and on Tuesday night the store
was " cleaned out ;" entirely, team taking
the stock out Of the rear part of the store,
the proprietor with his wife and furniture
leaving for parts unknown, the Grape still
hanging out as a mourning sign to one per
son in Boston, who is out to the amount OF
81 900. Other parties in Boston are no
doubt sufferers also. 1t is said that the
Young man hailed from the vicinity of
Townsend, Me-, but has probably gone
