The peculiar social characteristics Of some

body else, in New York society every body
gossips about every body else, in Philadcl-
phia society every body attends to the morals
Of every body else, in Baltimore society ev-
cry body fratcrnzss with every body else,

We are told that = c"Iurcd man named
IIrn-on, livinE in this town, has not slept
for three mouths. lie labors under some
nervous disorder. No pain is experienced
by the unfortunate fellow. The pin, s;cians
are treating this novel phenomenon.
We suggest for the good Of science, that
tbs patient be watched. as it might he pos
s;blr he iahorS un,ler some form Of mania.

have interviewed bs this time, and yet his
mind is clear and he ahorS every day.
DIABoL1cAL Acr.-Wc learn that on
Thursday night last. tie stable Of Capt. J. &.
S Brown, living about nine miles from New
berry, was set on f.c- at least so supposed,
rs no other conclusion can be arrived at
death Five of the horses belonged to Capt.
Brown, and two 70 DR. Bates. The loss falls
heavily on these gentlemen, in that the one
had hardly recovered from the burning of
his residence some few years since, and the
olher is just starting in life. The pcrpctrator
of such IN act is ticnd, and should be hung
as high a. IIaman.
THE ADMINISTRATIONS oldest inliahitant"
saws that this nrcr is the SevcreSt expe-
rienced here in fifteen years: Five snow and
sleet storms, inclusive, with II great amount
Of rain and unifo rmly cold weather Those
who believe in signs Say that it is inlca-
tive OF a sool crop yc,r. We hope so.
But as all signs are sid to fill in fair
weather, nigh, rot The same rule prevail
in foul weath"rs However, rs the Law OF
compensation i. II good law. We trust that
the present incl-,ncnt mii.ter is TO be fol.
lowed by bland and early spring and a
borntiful harvest.
In an editorial which appeared in the last
issue OF this paper on the Court, the conc!ud-
ing sentence reads, "iS it that the hopes
raised at the last term of Court were raised
merely TO bc blasted, and are VIC to hc the
obj"cis Of Il miserable chcn;?' Since lis ap-
pcarancc We regret to learn that Juisc Mo.
scs is pnincI inasmuch as he thinks his
frenis abroad may infer that the aiiusion is
made to him. We here take occasion to say
that no such intention was designed on orr
part. We are free to say that no personal
or special reference WAS had TO any Of the
officers of the Court. Our remarks were
! general. ard referred TO the general business
| OF the Court, which, in this day and slime,
| owing 10 the chect OF some cause. produces
