There ia n family nt sondy Till, New York,
which has very practical way Of viewing
events in life and dealing with sudden
emergencies. The 1+-year-old daughter OF
this family, who has boon Indicted to dine
novels md other sentimental guah, elopcd
with school-boy, got married to him, aud
then returned with him to be forgiven, aftcr
the manner Of the lovers in the lime-nos1ts.
The parents, however, were mot like the
rarents in the tlime-novels, for tho mother
sountl1y spanked the GIRL antl the boy on his
way out Of the house WAS kicked eighteen
times BY thu father. As neither Of them had
ever read anything Of tl!is Rort in novels, tho
dtnouemtnt wns genuine surprise to
them,- The. welcome Of tho fond parents,
however. is said to have worked like char,n,
md both the lovers aro cured Of their folly.
Love may laugh Mt locks,nitll but. whom it

As ths Common Council abolished tho
Board Of Police for tho express purpose Of
pntting tho Department in the hands Of
JAKE REnh, they must have expected req
sonablo amount OF respect and obedience
from that gentleman; but he hna already
takon occasion to show his contempt for
them. The other night the Council possed
tho following resolution:
RAsopsd, That tho Superintendent Of rolice b. and
tho aao Ii. hereby dircta 10 prohibit The burning Of
hFccraekers, and other fireworks, On July s. l. and
next, except In tho public parks And other opea
grounds.
This order, 1t will be observed, was not ii,
rected to tho Board Of Police, but to Supcrin-
tcndont REIN in person. As to two of the
days, July and 4, RnHx has not paid the
sllghtcst attention to the order. Firo-crackers,
torpedoea, pistols, rovolvers, Rhot-guns, and
tho usual silly accessories Of a Fourth.of-July
celebration, were whizzing and banging in tl.o
streeta night md day. Two Or thrce fires,
which threatened to DO serious, were among
tho results. There was apparently no effort
whatever on the part Of the Police supcrin-
tendent to carry out the order Of tho Council
and, II ho manifests to-day tho sams iniiif-
ference to the Councils directions and tho
interests Of the city, VIC may have another

The st, Louis Republican, after paying
tribnte to the gnllaAty Of tho naval conf
mauders Of tho Confoderacy, notices the fact
that 6EMMEa and BUCHANAN "tlo not stnnd In
high favor at tho North, at present." and
ndds: "l'ut II We should chance to become
cmbroiled in m ocean wnr with foreign
power, md the former commander Of tho
Mabnma werc allowed to tako part in it with
q good allip, tho chances aro that ho would
come out Of it with maine that oven New
England people would delight TO honor" :"
The Republican mikes m error in supposing
that the North Is at all exercised about
Mr.. SEMMRa. Tho cont fits the other
way. Mr. sEMMEs is exercised about
the North, his naval bead being filled
with the absurd md silly idea that he caunot
come North without being subjected to hu-
initiation md wearing brand" ns he CT.
presses It. Tho North has no mora interest
in Alr. 6Esntzs than it has in Mr.. SAITH, or
1lr. BnowN, or JEYr DAVIS. Should lie come
North, ho would be simply lot alonc-not
even stared at. It requires considerable con-
colt, by tho way, for Mr.. Sr,tMEs to suppose
that ho cut go large figure in tho War that
the North hns not yet recovered from, llis
naval exploits. Avisit to the North might bo
of benefit to Mr. 6EMs1Es in taking this con.
ceit out Of him, md convincing him that tho
War is over aud forgotten. His sensibi'itios
will not be touched by anything that he will
SEQ or hear relative to the War or his oonnec-
ton with it.

Less than the customary number OF acci-
dents from tho use of gunpowtler aro ro-
ported in Chicago for tho two days which
hnvo thus far been observed aa tho glorious
Fourth, but as the general celebration occurs
to-day there need 10 no fear TINT the average
will not bo kcptup. Tho record of disasters to
fingers, noses, eyebrows, oto., not to mention
more serious casualties, has Jet to be fin
ishcd. BY tue kind indulgence OF tho Chicago
police authorities, the boys will be enabled to
make mp for tho time they lost in Sunday
school yesterday, and burn themselves, set
fire to buildings, md frighten runaway horses
to their hearts, contont today. It's only a
question whether the fro-crackers hold out.

Additional particulars arc received concern
ing tbs terrible earthquake which destroyed
the city OF Cucuta, in the Province Of Pam
plona, South America, near the Venezuelan
frontier. besides Cncnta, there were several
villngos in that region which were literally
wiped from the face Of tho earth. Ten
thousand people wero killed. outright, many
moro thousands were wounded and maimed,
and MI tho inhabitants wero made ho1neless
aud penniless. Whether the catastrophe WIS

which was last hoard from in 1848, or whoth-
