4 Funny Incident.

George Lascelles, in a letter 10 the
New York Clipper, relates fnnny in.
cident which happened at the old Al
bary Museum, in the good old times
when the drama, wax figures and other
curiosities were in vogue at that place,
On the Fourth OF July, 1852, patr:
otic addition to the show being desired,
Charles Salisbury, a comical genius
notorious for his comical jokes, was
chosen to represent George Washing
ton, and, Of course. was dressed in the
traditional costume. The doors had just
been opened for the evening performance
and visitors had commenced throngIny
the curiosity rooms, when a mischioy-
ous idea struck Mr. Salisbury, who
opening the door OF one of the wax
work cases. unobserved, took a position
among the figures and tried TO look i'm
movable as possible \ countryman.
his wife,and daughter, young miss Of
eighteen, were the first who entered. As
the young lady approached Washington,
he bestowed on her a most unfatherly
wink. Good gracious, ma, exclaimed
she, that figure of Washington winked
at me" Nonsense. child, exclaimed
ma, You are so conceited you think
everybody is in love with you .
But at this moment she was almost
speechless herself for the venerable
Washington had applied his fingers to
his nose in very suggestive manner
"Oh, William" she exclaimed, grasp

that" What is it? asked William /;
why believe YOU women folks are
crazy" At this moment General Wash
ington struck bellgerent attitude and
uttered terrific veil In an instant
the whole party tumbled down stairs,
pell-mell, and related the wonderful
story, while Washington quietly slipped
off to his dres.ing-room, laughing in
his sleeve at the joke he had practiced

BALrINoRE, August 4.-The steam
ship Leipsic, from Bremen via South
ampton, arrived.
There were rumors, yesterday OF an
over-issue of the stock of the North
western Virginia Railroad Company,
commonly known as the Parkers-
burg branch Of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, which is leased
and worked BY the latter.
company The over.issue is stated in
the morning papers TO amount TO three
hundred thousand dollars, made by the
Secretary of the company. John L.
Crawford, who has resigned. The
amount at which the over-issue is fixed
is supposition merely, as no statement
has been made by Crawford, and the
Directors have not concluded the exam.

The over-issue is all hypothecated in
Baltimore at about fifteen dollars on
the share, the par value OF which is
fifty dollars.

NORTH CAROLINA ELECTION,
The Legislature Conservative.
DemOerntic Gain Of q Con-
gressznAn.

RALEIGH, n. c., August 5.-Turner
the editor of the Sentinel, was waylaid
on his way from the depot at Hills
boro, Orange county, and arrested by
Holden's militia. Orange county has
not been declared in q state Of insurrec-
ton, and no disturbances have occurred
there. Both parties have denounced
the outrage.
The vote is very cloa in this county,
with heavy Conservative gains The
Republicans confidently expected 1000
majority in the city, but received only
$50. 1t is thought now that the two
Conservative candidates for the State
House of Representatives have defeated
the colored Republican candidates, and
that Harris, the negro candidate for
Congress, has lost the county by a small
majority.
The vote for Senatorial candidates in
Franklin county is very close with the
chances in favor of the Democrats.
Rowan, Mecklenburg, Cabarrus, Orange
and Guilford counties have gone Demo
cratic. 1t is said in Alamance county
the Conservatives were so intimidated
that they did not vote. The county
went largely Republican.
RICHMOND, August 5.-A dispatch
from Raleigh says the Conservatives
carried the North Carolina Legislature
and that Judge Brooks, of the United
States Court, will issue a writ of habeas
corpus for the Caswell county prisoners.
The Conservatives gained Congressman
in Rockingham District.

John Real, whowas executed at New
York, Yesterday, for the mnnder OF u
policeman, has written an appeal TO the
public, in which he reviews the cir.
cumstances of his trial and the evidence
and character Of the witnesses against
him. He alludesto the excited state
of the public feeling at the present
time, ON account of the Nathan mur-
der, and charges that he is sent to the
gallows for political reasons. The
document also attacks several prominent
politicians. Before the trial one Of my
friends met Peter B. Sweeney in the park,
Sweeney said: "Real must be hang
ed. He has got to be hanged. The inter
est of Tamany Hafldemands it" The
document was evidently prepared by
his counsel, and produces a decided sem
sation.

The Judicial election at Nashville,
Tenn, Thursday, resulted in the defeat
of the Republicans by two thousand
majority. Colonel Eaton, United States
Marshal, arrested the officers OF the
election liz the Sixth Ward for viola
ton of the law in enforcing the l4th
and 18th amendments. They will be
examined before United States Com
missioner Smith next Monday. There
Is great dissatisfaction among the Re,

proportion OF the Republican tickets
were thrown out BY failure TO state
from what division Of the State the

the state funds in one or more banks in this
state, at the best rate of interest that can
be obtained, but not to put more than one
fourth in any one bank at any one time
We fear from the tenor of debate in the
Senate that there is very little desire to pass
the bill and that it is merely designed to
keep up the discussion to conciliate public
opinion and finally let it go over with the
unfinished business Such disposition of
the bill will not answer The people de-
mand honest, straight-forwa action from
their representatives, and nothing less will
satisfy them. We demand a vote on this
bill and we hope the yeas and nays will be
called so that every man may be forced to
show his hand. The Republican party is
IN earnest in its demand for retrenehment
and reform, and will set its seal of condem
nation on every Senator or Representative
who fails to come up to the standard Let
us have the names of all of this class, so
that We may have an opportunity to leave
all sneaks and pilferers at home another
session Tricksry in our legislative bodies
is becoming entirely too common; and the
trick Of discussing bills, the passage of which
the public demands, and then letting them
go over among unfinished business, or lay
ing them on the table is becoming entire
ly too common. Representatives who have
neither honor nor decency enough to respect
the wishes of their constituents should be
promptly retired by an indignant and out
ragged constituency. No other remedy will
answer. If constituencies permit drones
and pilferers to be renominated and sent
back to misrepresent them, they are no bet
ter than their representatives and deserve
no sympathy. They are simply disgrace
to a Republican government If we have
bold, intelligent wide awake constituencies,
they will not long tolerate such miserable
noaendties as make up large portion of
the Representatives of both parties. A
pressing want Of our times is that of good.
able, upright, industrious men in our legis
iatlve bodies. 1t behoOves both parties to
make an earnest effort in this direction.
When that is done We may look for more
efficient legislation aad less official corrup-
