of $780, agreeing to cancel the Indebtedness and pay
the balance Of fifty dollars by the middle of the next

The plaintiff denied that he ever purchased the
wagon. He said that upon calling upon the defend
ant for the amount due defendant told him he had
money but would let him have the wagon for
5000; that he (the plaintifD told defendant he was
about to purchase piece of land and if the party of
part payment he (paintiD would buy it, and that he
would see about it, that the sale completed
and the wagon never delivered.

Seymours modesty is again to be outraged by
the unscrupulous New York Democrats.
Late advices are 10 the effect that the senate.
rial nomination will ultimately be forced
upon him, and that like Dona Julia, he will
consent even while refusing. If Mr.. Sey-
mour's stern virtue is overcome again, he
will be in much the situation of the girl
whose betrayed confidence provoked so much
sympathy. "And so the villain abused your
confdence?" asked the plying spectator.
La, yes, said the girl anxious to excite still
more sympathy, 'but he isn't the first man
who has betrayed me, have been ruined

THE remarkable facts in regard to Mar
garet, 1.-The mother cf criminals" which
have appeared in the New York papers, are
exciting much attention and contain food for
hard thought. The illegitimate descendants
of this woman and of her two sisters count
up 4SO criminals. These have intermarried
with 143 others of like wretched character,
and the total number of descendants now
known number 623. Thus nearly seven hun
dred criminals have plagued the world as
result of the shame and neglect in which
this woman was suffered to grow up by
Christian community.

ABOUT as ridiculous a teapot tempest as
has been noted of late is the disturbance at
the Boston & Lowell station in Boston. The
railroad company has made certain rules in
regard to the presentation of tickets at the
gate of the station which seem eminently
wise and proper; but certain 70 olsh persons
who live in the suburbs of Boston have seen
fit to object have seen fit to evade the rule,
Lave tried to mob the officers at the gate,
and have conducted themselves much like

latter part OF this year that his first lecture was de-
livered in fremont Temple, Boston, before the Fra
ternity course, and the city papers were SO full Of
his praise that the said lecture called tor and de-
lvered in over one hundred cities Of the Union dur
ing the same year. The year following he opened in
fremont Temple his full course of Physiological Lee
lures, and that immense hall was crowded for thirty
three consecutive nights, at the conclusion of which
some three hundred citizens made him present of
bust of himself, and thousand of his hearers
petitoned the Lowell Institute to make sure OF his
lectures in that highest American Literary lnstltu-
ton. After giving his Course of Lectures in Frov1-
dence r. l.. the audience en- n,GSse made him pres
