Norton Of Minnesota. The outgoing
Senators are all Republicans, except
Salisbury. McCrsery and Norton. The

UPPER AND LOWER CLASSES. In
discourse entitled, @The Misery Of
the Masses and how to resch It," the
Rev. w. N. Taylor says-aYou re-
member the touching story of the
daughter OF SIR Robert Peel. Her
father give her, as birthday present,
gorgeous riding habit and went out
with her the same day for an airing in
the park, his heart swelling with pater-
nal pride as he rode by her side.
Shortly after she sickened and died of
typhus fever of the most malignant
type; and when inquiry was made as
to how she had caught the infection,
it was discovered that the habit, pur
chased from one of the London West
end tradesmcn, had been made in 4
miserable attic, where the husband OF
the seamstress was lying i'll of fever,
and that ii had been used to cover him
in his shivering fits. Thus, whether
we will believe it or not, the safety oil
the highest is bound up with the con-
dition of the lowest; any if we neg
lect their material, moral, and spiritual
interests, there will come dreadful
Nemesis to mark the Divine displeas
ure on our conduct, and we may per-
eeive our guilt all too late, when the
vast temple Of our liberties a shapeless
mass Of wreck and ruin lics.-Eagli&l

PERPETuAL INDUSTRIAL ExHl

PERPETUAL INDUSTRIAL ExHIBI-
TIoN.--A bill incorpe rating "The New
York Industrial Exhibition Company"
has just passed the Legislature in this
city. A perpatual exhibition of all
that relates to the arts and sciences can
hardly fail to be of great benefit to the
public ut large, and the city and COM
panY that undertakes it. 1t is under
stood that the necessary capital. 81
900, 900, has all been subscribed, and
we hope hat the execution of the. pro.
jeot will not be delayed. 1t is well
understood that there are no means
better adapted to promote general ma.
tional education, than industrial exhi-
bitions, In which the products of agri.
culture, the master pieces Of great ar
fists, the results Of our best engineer
ing talents and the goods of our manu-
tacturers may be inspected, studied and
compared, and if an industrial school
could be combined with this institu
tion--a school in which the scholar
would grow up among the instruments
he is to use, and the machines he is te
construct and operate. SO that he might
study them in operation, work them
himself, make drawings Of them and
evenssbnild them, the resulting benefit
could hardly be overrated.-1echaolo

A correspondent Of the Cincinnati
Gazette makes the following remarks In
answer to the questions of another cor.
respondent. in reference to the running
out of the best varieties of fruit:
I answer, by suggesting that many
Of our old and valuable varieties OF
fruit trees are in the state of old age
and decay, and will not produce good
fruit.
Many orchards recently planted,
made mp of selections of our old and
excellent varieties. grated on thrifty
and healthy seedlings, are in the de-
cline of life and decay of old age,
simply in obedience to the laws of ma
tire, as there is limit to the age OF
all trees. It must be borne in mind
that the graft is only nourished by the
sap of the root of the tree upon which
it is grated; its properties are not
changed by it, and therefore it partakes
of the age and oil the infrmities of the
tree whence the variety originated. Il
is from this cause that all of our old
and favoritc varieties of apples, peach
es, &C., are disappearing; and it is use
less to continue to gather these old va
rieties, as we only multiply o siekly
and exhausted variety. Our only rem,
edy is to raise new and valuable varie-
ties from buds, and then multiply these
varieties by grating while they are
young.

ECONOMY IN HTGH LIFE.-A lady
who had been spending some days at a
hotel at Saratoga, where a son in law
of Commodore Vanderbilt and family
aro staying, tells the following story :
t.Calling in the room Of the Commo-
dore's daughter one day, she found her
giving her little daughter some lessons
in the homely work Of darning stock
ings. The visitor expressed surprise
that she should bother herself or her
daughters with such work, when the
Commodore's daughter replied there
was no telling what woman would be
called upon to do in this country, OF
what fate awaited her, and she believed
in instructing them ia the useful arts
asTa prepasation for any reverse tha,
might overtake them"

The report of the Superintendent of
Common Schools for the State of Ohio
for the year 1860, represents the cause
of popular education as making marked

any other State in the Union. The

In our obituary of the late Mr.. e. n. Thayer we
alluded to rumor that had been current during
his life to the effect that during the action be-
tween the Chesapeake and Shannon he being
midshipman on board the former vessel, he hid
himself in the hold of his ship. After our article
appeared we thought that it would have been
better if such an allusion had not been made,
and our excuse must be the haste in which we
were obliged to collect our material and write
the notice. Mr.. Thayer was gentleman for
whom We always entertained q most cordial
esteem, and in referring to the above mentioned
rumor we had no desire or intention to say any
thing but in kindly spirit. We regret how
ever, that anything was said on the subject, and
we very gladly publish the following letter from

duct as mdshipman on board the Chesapeake
