RoUrb JoIkc by Accident.

Near the Louisville railroad depot is the
Office of a gentleman whose time and at
tention is occupied in curing the ills that
horse-fesh is heir to. In this Office are
two skeIetons-one, all that remains OF a
deceased horse, the other the framed bones
of a defunct donkey. A party of gentle
men we're yesterday curiously inspecting
the latter, the first collection of the kind
thew had ever seen on wires. The sight
solemnly impressive, and seemed especial
" SO in its effect on one of the spectators
who had given the frame most careful ex-
animation. After completing his work of
inspection, having fully viewed the donkey
skeleton. he seriously and quietly re-
marked to friend, I'VE are wonderfully
and fearfully made" They laughed, and
became offended at their levity on such a
solemn occasion, and don't know now what
there was in his innocent remark calculated
to amuse them.

The Empfre is Peace.

Two women, who neither believe nor
practice the teachings of the French En-
peror as to what constitutes empire of any
sort. whether domestic or national, and
who certainly do not obey the INDUCTION OF
that great and good man, Gen. Grant,
on the peace question, assaulted and bat
tered each other until legal interference
became absolutely necessary. The hus-
band of oUe of the belligerents, whose
patience was exhausted In the vain effort to
have peace restored between them, applied
to W. H. Wilkinson, Esq, for the legal
process necessary to bring about that re-
suit, and peace warrants against the female
shoulder-hitters We're accordingly issued and
served. The husband can fight "a parcel
himself when necessity requires, but says
he intends to have peace in the empire of
his own home, even if it takes until late in
the summer to inaugurate it. He went on
tbe peace bonds of the fighting women,
saving that if either or both be forfeited,
he will sell his house to pay the damages.
His conduct throughout the unhappy affair
illustrates his opinion that tie empire OF
women is peace.

Church Attendance.

Last Sabbath was an exceedingly beauti-
full, quiet and lovely one. In the morning
the sun burst out, beaming and etfulgent
as when its rays first kissed into warmth
and teaming life the bosom Of virgin earth,
or glowed where shepherds fed their focks
on Judea's hills. The children of the city
wended their ways to the several Sabbath
schools, the nurseries of their morals and
the musterfelds where their young minds
are disciplined for the rude battles of life,
and prepared for the blissful beatitudes OF
a life eternal. Thousands of them move
there. drinking in wisdom and inspiration,
to aid in laying the foundations of their fu-
tire characters. The churches were all
well attended. Rev. DR.. Young, of the
McKendree Church, from the passage OF
Scripture found in the nineteenth and
twentieth verses Of the eighteenth chapter
Of Matthew, delivered a discourse replete
with thought, earnestness and christian
sincerity He had a large and instructed
congregation. The other churches were
well filed, and the discourses at each
we're highly commended

The schools of Nashville are said to
have been been once very good; but they
have now a school-board which began bust
ness by turning out all the Yankee teach
ers and putting in their places native
pedagogues. One of these, little while
since, on being asked, could not explain
the causes of day and night; and upon
this the pupils rebelled, the seminary was
in an uproar, the police were called in,
and the great business of teaching the
young idea how to shoot was, for time,
suspended. There was incredible stupid
ity in supposing that any teachers could
be better than Yankee teachers, for the
Yankees invented the business. No Won
der they talk in Nashville Of selling the
public property to pay the city debts
The above is from the New York Tribune
of the 18th, and although there is but one
truth in it, that which says our schools
81 are said to have been very good, 1t Is
about as near correct as the reports which
are generally sent from this place to the
Radical press Of the North.
