No MAN.-Miss La Grange, of the
Santa Barbara Press, puts one OF her
editorial grievances in the following
light: "A sense of insufficiency and
iittleness stole DER us, when. in con-
tempt, that stranger rose and tow
cred up before US, and said with
such an injured look and tone OF
stuffed thunder. lis there no man
about the place, no editor, l Won
der?' Were editor, We meekly said
sof feminine creation, but fain would
be man or two, for your accommo-
dation, and as relentless fate forbids
so sudden transition, Well try and
find man who'll do, to take your
deposition. We found him stand
ing on the street, the mountain top
surveying, and sent our eager guest
to him without the least delaying.
Two days have passed, and still that
man, that citizen, is boring--a cease
less flow of eloquence upon his sem
ses pouring; while we enjoy sweet
revenge upon our ancient foeman,
and thank our friendly stars that we
are nothing but woman"

In THE reign of the late King OF
Siam, the currency of the realm con-
sisted of lead and zine coins. Cop
per coins were subsequently intro
duced, but these were so easy of imi-
tation that counterfeits were soon in
general circulation. Cowries were
then used, and the copper coinage
was withdrawn. The heads of gam
bling houses - privileged institu-
tions in Siam-put in circulation a
crockery currency, which they re-
call at pleasure. This crockery cur
rency, is now to be recalled by the
Government; and paper notes of
small denominations are to be gen.
orally used, until proper coinage
is decided upon.

A WOMAN in New London, Conn.,,
saw her husband carrying lady's
satchel, and she tore the lady's dress
off her before discovering that it was
her mother, who had dropped down
on the evening train to surprise her.
Every husband in the land who is
out evenings should read this little
item to his wife, and hold up the
dangers Of her becoming suspicious
without the best of cause.

If we look at ourselves, what are
we but mysteries ? What are our
souls d? Who ever saw a human
soul, and yet who is there that de-
MES its existence ? We know it is
an unseen essence, and yet existing
and governing our bodies; and yet
who can understand its nature, and
the mode of its connection with the
body? And what is life in action;
We see how it gives animation to
each fiber, and holds this frame
work of the body in existence; and
when this mysterious essence has
gone, the whole structure falls into
corruption and mingles with dust.
And wherein is the doctrine of the
union of three persons in one God.
head more marvellous, mysterious
and inscrutable than this union of
our souls and bodies in one person d?
