Shameful Crueltles In the Navy.

Charges of cruelty have been preferred
against Commander A. A. Semmes, of
the United States ship Portsmouth (now
on the Brazil station), in the North At
lantc Squadron, about nine months ago.
The records of courts martial, in the
cases Of several of the men on board the
ship, for refusing to do duty, came to the
Navy Department. and as these men,
claimed in defence, that they had been
cruelty treated, court Of inquiry was or
dcred.
The records of the court, embracing
600 or 700 pages OF manuscript, came to
the Department in September, and from
these it appears chat nearly every man
aboard the ship had been subjected to
punishment These punishments consist
ed of mailing men up in boxes for days,
tying them up by the thumbs, &c. One
Of the ships writers was coguizant OF all
these crueltes, and had entered returns
of the punishment in the log-book The
officers, thinking that he know too much
Of the way in which things were man
aged, reduced him. lie aftorward re
fused to do duty, and was eourt-maltialIed
and sentenced to the penteutiary for
several years Though there has been
much delay, it is reported that the Com
mander and hisexecutiye officers are now
to be tried.

The Board Of Public Charity.

In the early part of the session, Gen.
Kane, the President of this board, made
a report to the Legislature on his own re-
sponsibility, taking the balance of the
board to task for neglect of duty, and
winding up with recommendation
that the law authorizing such commits
sion be repealed. The tenor Of the whole
document would at once convince the
reader that the writer was vexed because
he had been unable to control the actions
of his colleagues, and that they had form
ed opinions in conflict with his. Since
then the board have made report which
shows that their actions have been for the
best interests Of the State, and that the
only reason why Gen. Kane was dissatis-
fed, was because they had refused to re-
commend the appropriation of money
in accordance with his desires The fol-
lowing paragraph, quoted from the last
report explains the matter:
:" A small but deserving charity, COM
paritively unknown, which asked for
State aid, aud whose expectations did not
exceed 81 900, had the recommendation
of our President for SO, 800 an other, of
similar character, had his voice for S5,-
coo; and for third, which asked and
obtained the recommendation of the
Board for $4,000 he proposed $50, 900
A scheme, which was rejected last year by
one of your committees, he desired to re.
yive, with a recommendation Of $4,000
To this, the members of the Board were
unanimously opposed

Married for Fun.

The quiet community ronnd about Ben
Bow, a small town in Marion county,
Mo-, about twenty miles from st. Louis,
was thrown out of its customary even
channel two or three days since, and set
in social agitation, by the extraordinary
matrimonial freak of a highly esteemed
young couple, in which pluck had more
to do than mutual attraction. The sensa-
tion consisted in that the parties did not
want to marry, and had no idea Of what
they were doing until the wedding was a
fact.
The bride was engaged TO young man
in that vicinity, and was to have been
and expected to be married to him in
May. The bridegroom was, as stated
betrothed to another lady, and the nup.
tials were to have been celebrated in o
few weeks The banter which led TO the
unexpected wedding was made at party
at which were the bride that should have
been of the bridegroom, and the bride,
groom that should have been Of the bride
thinking at the the time it was a gooC
joke. CONSERVATION prevails among thu
four most interested, who do not at pres
ent see their way out of a disagreeablt
embarrassment. The married coupl,
have not as yet treated the marriage as
reality, and are waiting at their respect
i've homes until some way shall be tounC
to release them from their difficulty. =
The marriage was regular and legal, an'
so far there appears to be no help for tn
parties, who are sorely distressed.

no. A rather romantic history has been
developed by the trial of suit in New
Orleans court for the property left by a
certain Henrietta Newsham. This person
came TO New Orleans from Vicksburg on
a Aatboat during the war, ar,accompanied by
her cousin, who was said to be also her
lover. Upon the arrival of the twain in
New Orleans, Henrietta adopted the garb
Of boy and became a newsboy. She
continued TO sell newspapers, and dress in
male attire, unsuspected by her associ-
ates, until an order from Gen. Banks or
dering draft in New Orleans induced her
TO resume the habiliments Of her sex.
She thereafter became known as the girl
newsboy. In 1864 she died of small pox.
In the following year her cousin died Of
the same disease, and in 1865 her aunt,
with whom the two lived, also died. Some
thousands of dollars were left by the girl
newsboy, and the suit now brought is by a
person assuming to be the mother of Hen
rietta, and who claims her estate.

gsa- A pack of cards lies conveniently
around in the jury room out in Wyoming
territory, and when the jury retires to
consult, the members always take a hand.
The fascinating game of euchrc is found
greatly to relieve the tedium of waiting
for obstinate members to come around
The following scene is usual: "Well,
gentleman, guilty or not guilty ?'" | pass

you ? Very well my deal right bower,

psG- The Ebcnsburg Adeghonian says,
it is well-known fact that wild geese on
a dark night sometimes loose their reck-
oning. On such occasions they have
been known to descend to the ground
near any bright light burning probably
to see where they are and take q fresh
start. Last Friday night was a very dark
night. A man who lives in the suburbs
started home about ten o'clock. He
stopped by the way to light cigar His
burning match must have seemed light
house to flock Of passing geese, proba-
bly, 20 in number, for they came to the
ground and swarmed" on and around
the man. He was considerably aston
ished---in fact SO much astonished that
he failed to capture single goose.

Eay' Although every member Of the
Delaware Legislature is Democrat, a
Democratic caucus was held and strange
to say, the three candidates before it

result of the four ballotings, the fourth
and final one electing Eli over Cove by a
voth Of l6 to IA.

say- A German living in Sharon Ohio,
while on his way home from nights
debauch, recently slipped and fell on the
sidewalk. Being unable to rise, he was
carried to his home, where, on being un-
dressed, it was found that pencil which
he carried in his pocket, had penetrated
his side, near his heart, three or four
inches He died in about an hour

uaa-A A Hartford man was recent y
awakened from his slumbcrs, by distinct
rapping on his bedroom window. lie
seized his repeater, and cautiously ad-
vanccd to the window, and discovered
instead Of robber, a pct cat, which had
been locked out, and took this method to
attract attention, rather than remain all
night in the cold The gentleman kept
awake the remainder Of the night, vainly
endoavoring to solve the problem Of how
puss managed to do that knocking. We
have little black and tan dog, who de
string to be let in the house, goes to the
low window, and raps with her paw on
the glass as naturally as any human If
that fails to attract attention, after two
or three definite knocks, she adds whine,
and is let in, If the outside window,
blinds are closed, she inserts one of her
paws between the stats, and if gentle
rattle of them does not effect the object,
she will increase the violence ofthe shake
until somebody is glad to open the door.

AN ACT giving $4,000 in aid Of the

State Senate on Wednesday last No
doubt there are many persons who badly
need this assistance, but it is a bad prece-
dent to establish, as there are fires every
week in which persons lose all they are
worth, and who can, with equal propIie-

Religious Amendment Of the Constitution.
A NATIONAL CONVENTION to consider
this subject met in Philadelphia on We'd
nesday, Jan, 10th, at 2 o'clock, P. NJ,
and continued in session until Thursday
night. Two hundred and nineteen dele
gates were in attendance, representing
eleven states Of the Union.
The object aimed at is such an amend
ment to the Constitution of the United
States as will adequately express the
fact that this is Christian Nation, and
form sufficient legal basis for all our
Christian Institutions Usages and Laws
The Convention was influential and
enthusiastic. Judge VIM. Strong, of the
U. S. Supreme Court is the President of
the National Association, formed to Sc
cure this object, and was expected topre-
side at the Convention, but his attend
ance was prevented by official duties

vention. Addresses were delivered By
DR.. Jonathan Edwards, of Baltimore,
and by Prof j. II. McIlvaine, late Of
