~ Col. J. M. Wesson, Of that
ilk, in an article in a Mississippi paper
recommends that persons who neglect
home insurance companies because
they have no standing, should give
them some of their own standing by
patronage. The suggestion is a
pertinent one and applicable to other
institutions as well-to newspapers,
manufactures, great and small, trans
portation lines, school books, &c.
To some extent, the people, we be-
lieve, are disposed to act upon it,
and if they are ever permitted to
have another crack at constitution
making, will prefer domestic ar.
ticle to one from Vermont, and
Southern workmen to carpet-bag-
gers for putting it together.

sa- A new swindle is said to have
been started in New York city, which
is we'll calculated to deceive persons
In the country. A circular is sent
out with samples Of prints which are
represented to be manufactured at
print works whose owners have an Of
fee in New York. Enclosed 10 the
circulars are samples of goods, of
which twelve yards will be sent on
the receipt Of one dollar, or ten yards
for eighty-fve cents. A few days
ago Postmaster Kelly, of New York,
received letter from lady, with an
enclosure of eighty.five cents, asking
hin to send her ten yards of the goods,
If they were as represented. A mes
senger was sent to the office named,
when it was found that the place was
in charge of boy, and that no bust
ness was transacted there beyond re-
ceiving letters, which usually number
from thirty.fve to forty day

70 Some terrible stories are told
of the ravages Of the famine in Al
giers. One Of them is Of an Arab
woman, who killed her daughter,
twelve years Of age, and gave the
flesh to her other children and par
took of it herself. The legal au-
thorities at once proceeded to the
spot, and on entering the hut found
the mother occupied in sailing the
flesh, cut up into pieces, as if it were
so much pork.

Ivy The fashion plates in Godey's La

LEY The fashion plates in Godey's La
dy's Book for May, though beautiful as
usual, as specimen Of the engraver's art,
represent the most horribly outre and ugly
styles Of dress that have come to light in
our day. The figures are like bean poles
variously surmounted with coiffnres Of the
haystack, pancake or grandmother night
cap patterns; and the other habiliments
with but two exceptions, looking like
coffee sacks, "long drawn out" closely
fastened up nearly to the armpits and
spreading out with a full sweep below.
From their crumlped appearance one
might imagine they had been closely
packed in carpet-bag and just taken out
in haste for display, without giving them
time to 'smooth their wrinkled fronts"

PEACHES WITHOUT SToNEs.-It
is stated that an agriculturalist has
tried with success the following
method Of making peaches grow
without stones:
Turn the tops of the tree down,
cut off the ends, stick them into the
ground, and fasten them so with
stakes. In year or two these tops
will take root, and when well rooted,
cut off the branches connecting these
reverses and rooted branches with
the tree proper, and this reversed
peach tree will produce fine peaches
without stones. The same expert
ment may be tried with plums, cher
ries and currants.

THE Reform League of England, or
rather itsEXecutiye officers, denounce
ReNerdy Johnson, whom they charge
with having snubbed every liberal
leader who has approached him. If
he be statesman and philanthropist,
Mr.. johnson could not do otherwise
than turn his back upon workers of
political iniqulty, no matter in what
guise they present themselves.
Mr.. Johnson must have discovered
that Radcalism hero IL merely the
advanced stage of liberalism In Eng
land. Andhavlng seen, with his own
eyes, that Radicalism has overturned
the government he represents, he can
not avoid the inference that liberal
ism promises to overthrow the gov
ernment to which he is accredited
For the honor of his own country, for
the sake of good government every
where, he dare not foster doctrines
abroad which have proven destructive
of liberty in his native land.
The speeches of Bright and Mil, II
delivered in New England, would be
applauded rs the qulntcssence of
American Radicalism, and Reverdy
johnson is too much Of philosopher
not to know that the same cause will
produce the same effect, regardless OF
locality or arbitrary differences in
