docketed by the clerk.
1t has transpired that Capt. HOwgate, on the
morning of his departure ,Tuesdayweek, appeared
to be quite nervous and impatient to get off and
anxiously looked for carriage; that he went to
the Baltimore and Potomac depot in company
with Hon. Jere Wilson (Of his cOunseD, being
assisted by that gentleman to the cars, which
moved off just as he stepped aboard. This hav-
ing been reported to the government officers as
also the fact that he had transferred this prop
erty to protect his suretes, the attachment case
was hurriedly prepared and entered and the at
tachment made by 6 o'clock the same day. and
the deed to secure the sureties was not put on
record until the following day at 10 o'clock.

TRUE WOMAN.-Every man of sense
admires woman as woman, and when
she steps out of this character, thou
sand things, that in their appropriate
sphere would be admired, become dis
gushing and offensive. The appropriate
character of woman demands delicacy
of appearance and manners, refinement
of sentiment, gentleness of speech, mod
esty of feeling and action, shrinking
from notoriety and public gaze, aversion
to all that is coarse and rude, and in in
stinctive adherence of all that tends to
indelicacy and impurity, either in prin-
ciple or action. These are the traits
which are admired and sought for in
woman.
