to large bodies of valuable land, were, by the
order of the Assembly, taken into custody.
The Assembly were melted to take this action
by petition sent up by thirty.nine citizens OF
Granville county. Cooper appealed to Chief
Justice Wright, by whom he was released.
The Assembly declared that the writ ofhabeas
corpus did not apply to persons committed by
the Assembly, and resolved that mo writ Of
habeas corpus lies in favor Of any person COM
mitted by the house, and that the messenger
attending do yield no obedience to such; and
that the Chief Justice be made acquainted
with these resolutions" The Chief Justice
complained that the resolutions of the Assem-
ely had a tendency to subvert the principles Of
the government. His views we're neither IA
vored by the Governor nor by his Council,
who concluded that the lower house possessed
the same power in this particular as was pos
sessed by the House of Commons in England.
The Chief Justice was not without strong
friends. They were, however, individuals who
were influenced by selfish ends, prejudicial to
the general welfare. The Assembly were not
to be baulked in their course. A resolution
was passed that Chief Justice Wright had
conducted himself unworthy of the high and
responsible Office which be held, and that it
would be for the benefit of the province to sus.
pend him from Office: The conduct of the
Surveyor General was censured. He, in or
der to make his Office more profitable, had en-.
couraged unscrupulous individuals in loca-
ting lands. The result was that St. John was
forbidden to survey any land unless he had
first received warrant from the Governor.

However short we stay;
There's wisdom in merry heart,

But give me the philosopher
That's happy with straw.
Iflife but brings us happiness,

What's hard to buy, though rich ones try,
With all their heaps of gold;
Then laugh away, let others. say
Whate'er they will of mirth,
Who laughs the most may truly boast
He's got the wealth of earth.
There's beauty in the merry heart,
A moral beauty, too;
It shows the hearts an honest heart
That's paid each man his due;
And lent share Of what's to spare,
Despite of wisdom's fears,
And makes the cheek less sorrow speak,
The eye weep fewer tears.

The tempest wrath begin;
It finds spark to cheer the dark,
Its sunlight is within

the settlers, respecting the manner in which
lands were taken up. Grasping individuals
run out large tracts of land, to the great det-
riment of the colony. This was especially
the case in the region bordering upon Port
Royal. Some individuals, with the expecta-
ton of making themselves the owners of vast
tracts of land, had unjustIy laid claim to
tracts of land which had been laid out as
baronies under the proprietary government.
All these empty titles had been abolished by
the royal government. Still, some indiVidu'
ais endeavored to enforce their claim to large
tracts of land, to the great detriment Of the
colony. All the best lands on the water
courses, in the direction of Port Royal, had
been marked out for no other purpose, it would
seem, than to secure the foundation for Ger.
tain individuals, in time, to become mighty
landlords.
St. John, the Surveyor General Of the
province, so far favored these individuals as
to mark out for them lands contrary both to
the law of the colony and to the general well
fare of the country. 1t was matter of vital

on the poor and unproductive lands, or settle
on the rich lands in the capacity of tenants.
This was, in part, what brought them to the
New World. They had been mere serfs in
Europe. They came to America that they

The Nipcnchin Skirt.

A case of agony occurred, yesterday,
at the corner of Charles and Canal
streets, which makes the heart sad on
contemplation a young lady came
along hcrmeticaly sealed up by bat
terry of pms in one OF the new style Of
walking dress, which, by the way, has
the quality of prettiness to recommend
it. whatever may be the physiological
objections to it. At the corner she hap
pened to drop her handkerchief; and q
man near BY, who the sequel will show
to be verltabc beast in disguise, made
n forward movement to pick 1t up. In
the act of doing so he reconsidered his
resolution, and stood stately up, leaving
the handkerchief where it was. The
Young lady made an agonizing appeal
with n pair of brilliant black eyes to
the tantulizing male, but he ungallantly
remained obduratc to the mute request,
and laid his spine against the lamp post.
She then made three efforts herself to
pick it up, but failed. Finally she
made a kind OF scmi~circular spring
such AS men make when they run races
in sacks, and picking up the handker-
chief, she left rapidly, while the bushes
went away back TO her hair.-Nc0 Or

short story for tne Girls

4 bright little girl WAS playing GRO
1uet, and knocking her ball with the IN
tcution of placing it in position :" that
she could pass through the wicket when
her time to play should come again, was
somewhat displeascd to see 1t roll too far,
So that She was still out of position
Without uttering word of complaint,
however she walked quietly to the ball,
and with her foot rolling it to the place
where she had endcsvored to have it stop.
Another engaged in the game saw il, and
kindly rcproved her; told her it was
wrong, and if she learned to do things
which were wrong in small things, like a
came of pleasure, she would bc more like
~ 10 do 50 in large things when she
should BE- thrown into the greatest strug-
gles If life. To this she readily respond
ed, "Why, saw grandma place her ball
before the wicket the same way awhile
uror And no argument seemed to con
vince her but that it was right to thus
take advantage of her playmates, because
she saw her grandmother do the same
thing"
Thus an innocent little girl CHANGED to
be the observer of an act by one OF whom
she looked for an example, and thus u
little mini was poisoned which was per-
haps as pure as the fresh fallen snow. In
this way seed is often sown in the child
which must sprout and bear fruit. con!
what must the harvest beY'
How careful we should be to AVOID the
appearance of evil, and remember that in
the smallest deed the eye of some person
looking to Us for an example may be up
on us.

a male of the same breed was thrown
into the rapids, also near the middle OF
the bridge. Ia less than an hour he
came up the ferry steps very wet and not
at all gay. The reason why the animals
are not killed is that the water pours

nate enough to fall in this way, aided
also BY the repulsion Of the water from

that some strong man, in light strong
boat, may thus, at some future time, go
over the Horseshoe Fail, and not be

Robert Dale Owen-The Probable

In publishing the dispatch announc-
ing the insanity OF Rober Dale Owen the
Chicago Tribv"c says:
after long life of earnest, unset
fish effort for the good Of mankind, this
terrible affection comes. The cause of it
probably does not lie many months back

tations of these rascals with implicit
faith. lie lived some time in Philadcl-
phia in order to miss none Of the seances.
The repeated apparitons of Katie were
to him conclusive proof of immortality.
He pinned his faith in the life hereafter,
in reunion. with his father and his wife,
on what Spiritualism, and especially up
on what TINS pretended spirit showed
him. Readers of this article in the
Atlantic Monthly upon Katie King will
remember the syllogI>m which the good
old man painfully constructed thereon,
by which, he proved, to his own per
feet satisfaction TINT his visitor was indeed
discmboljed bit of supcrnaturalism
The day before the article appeared the
fraud was exposed. Mr.. Owen wept
bitterly, it is said, when Il conviction
that he had been made the dupe Of Il
trio of l,nuvcs forced itself upon him.
He tclcgraphed to Boston to cut out the
article. but it was too late. The mag
azine was already printed. a tim
slip of paper disciaimins any editorial
responsibility and thus ruthicssly in
crossing that OF the author, was predxed
to the sketch. And thus it came to pass
that Robert Dale Owens syllogstic
proof that Katie King was spirit and
'Katie's' own confession that she was a
fraud were published together. The
mind that was once so vigorous could not
stand the blow that shook the faith OF
half a lifetime. The insanity feared at
that time has at last come. The sun
that rose in splendor sets in gloom.

a Phase orFrench LIE.

A Paris correspondent of the London
Datly Ne,os writes: "a curious case
illustrating one of the many delicate
phases of life in Paris has just come be-
fore the civil tribunal Of the Seine. NJ.
Georges Violet retired gentleman,
died a few days ago, at q comparatively
early age from consumption. On at
tanning his majority, he formed an
acquaintance of q young lady named
Leonie Viteau1, who became his mistress
and was eventually received into the
family Of NJ. Violet on the same footing
as if she had been his wife. She at
tended him during his long illness, ac-
companied him 10 various watering
places, and drove out with his mother in
her carriage At length the case OF NJ.
Violet became hopeless, and seeing his
approaching end he made his will, by
which he made his mother universal
legatee, on the condition that she gave
an annuity of G40 to his mistress as
reward for the care and attention she
had bestowed on him. The poor fellow
died and was duly buried, and Nine.
Violet, his mother, continued on the
best terms with Mdlle. Viteaux, until the
latter finding that Mime. Violet did not
proceed to execute the will, preached the
question of annuity. Thereon Nine.
Violet refused point blank to entertain
the matter, and MdIie. Viteaux was
obliged to 60 to law. The respective
counsel for the plaintiff and defendant
gave as WAS natural under the clrcum-
stances, a very different account of the
young lady. According to one she
was everything that WAS good, barring
her living under the protection OF NJ.
Violet; according to the other, she was
All intriguing little serpent, who made
other victims than NJ. Violet However,
the will was there, and executed it must
be. But after paying debts and funeral
expenses, it WAS found that N. Violet had
not left enough to insure an annuity OF
$40. SO the court decided that the &C.
count should be sent before notary and
that Mdlle Viteaux should receive an
annuity in proportion to the sum tina
remained to the good. 1t may appear
strange to the English readers that Nine
Violet should have elected to wash such
dirty linen in public, but they manage
these things, as you see, very differently
in France.
