bv Mrs. s. p. uoicHrr. Truly lmth the poet said that "Trifle swell the sum of human happiness and woe." Our highest and holiest aspirations, our pur- Wflrmp1 a'iion rc frequently called forth by what in itself maybe rk-niefl of trivial importance.

The fragrant breath ot a flower, the passing stag of a merry milk maid, a soothing word of 'love, will often c.ange the whole current of our thoughts and Mings, and by carrying us hack to the days of our childhood, or bringing to our re-nifnibrance some innocent and happy stats which steals over us like a long forgotten drtam, will dissipate the clouds of sorrow, and even the still deeper shades of falsity and evil. How many of the great events of life have their origin in trifles, how many deep, heart felt soitows spring from neglect of what seems to us a duty of little or no account-something that could bo done or left undt.no as we pleased. Alas! this is a dangerous doctrine. Let us endeavor to impress upon the minds of our children that no duty is triflino-; that nothing which can in any way effect tho comfort and happiness of others, is unimportant. 1 The happiness of domestic life, particularly ot married life depends almost wholly upon strict attention to trifles.

Between those who are united by the sacred tie of marriago nothing should be deemed trivial. A word, a glance, a smile, a gentle touch, all speak volumes; and the human heart is so constituted that there is no joy so great, no sorrow so intense, that it may not be increased, or mitigated by theso trilling acts of sympathy from one wo love. AnVF.RTISIKC A Deitu Wo o. ft tertained, says an English Journal, by the tone of Kpnfimpnf nmtnJ in iiuvertisi ng a Thel'e is frequently a facetious union ot puff and despondency. We will give a specimen of a death.

"Died, on the 11th ult at the shop on rleet street, Mr. Edward Jones, much respected by all who knew and dealt with As a man he was amiable, as a hatter upright and moderate. His virtues were beyond all price and his beaver hats were twenty-four shillings each. He has left a widow to deplore his loss and a large stock to be sold for the benefit of his family. He was snatched to the other world in tiie prime of life, and just as he had concluded an extensive purchase of felt, which he got so cheap that the w.dow can supply bonnets at a more reasonable charge than any other bouse in London.

His disconsolate family will cany on tho business with punctuality." WEEPIITO OVEE FICTITIOTJS DISTBESS. Why do young people, who are never seen engaged in the blessed work of relievino- actual suffering suffering all around thrTm take so much delight in over fictitious distress? Why have they a thousand midnight tears to drop upon the pages of tho last novel, but no day-drops of mercy for tho poor and afflicted in their neighborhood Perhaps you answer, "Excitement is naturally pleasing to the human mind. It loves it like alcohol." True, but why not seek ex. Citcment where there is real suffering to be relieved? The reason must be that fictitious sorrow requires no labor, no sacrifice. It can be indulged at large on tho luxurious couch, or the sumptuously furnished parlor.

But real distress demands for its relief toil and self-denial, and tho opening of the purse strings. That makes the difference, and it is a mighty difference indeed as great as the difference between tinsel and solid gold. Hudson Observer. HAE VESTING TTJEHTPS. Pulling turnips and cutting off the tops by hand and knife, which is an almost universal practice among American farmers, is about KA uiu oi improved Husbandry as digging up the land with a hoe, instead of plowing In England, turnips are almost invariably planted in drills, at pulling times Ihe laborer passes along the row with a light sharp hoe.

CAEEIZE'S AIDEESS! Good morrow now, my frientM huppy New Tear A health I'll drink to you from a fountain clear, And wish yon each a heart brimful ot juy For I'm your kindly-wishing carrier boy. I am "your servant sir," through the year, AvAHght I Rive to friends from far and near For oft, yon I on a Summit stand, And hold a friendly Beacon in my hand. Though "t'nele Sam" gives me no costly farm, Nor splendid home, nor yet a well-stored barn, I ask no beUer offlce nor employ, Than to be your fidthful carrier boy. When Wednesday morning comes, I rub eyes, Ere yet ''Old Sol" doth even think to rise, And with my newsy bundle 'neath my arm, I whistling joy along, and fear no harm. And if you chance just then to napping be, I throw my "Beacon" 'neath your door-yard tree; But if you early rise, your open door, Tempts me to fling it in upon your floor.

And then 1 laugh to see (he young folks ra, To catch It, full of laughter and of fun, To see whose hearts by Hymen have been tied, And who hath won a fair, or ugly bride 1 And now, kind friends, on Happy New Year's day, Lot's talk of past events both grave and gay We'll of the future talk a little too, And tell what we this year intend to do. The Swedish Nightingale all through our land Hath been, and cheered full many a waiting band! The blind with joy hare listed to her song The woods have to her carol echoed long. And Father Matthew too kind, pious soul-Hath of his labors given a generous dole To the glad people of our favored land, And taken many a wanderer by Ihe hand, And led him from the haunts of vice away, And bidden him pledge himself no more to stray From home, and wife, and happy children dear! Thus hath he kindly dried the mourner's tear. And he bath bidden us a kind farewell, And gone to his own countrymen to lei! With joy, how God hath here his labors blest thank the Lord for such a noble guest And ask for blessings on his future life, Who by his labors brings surcease of strife May many years of joy to him bo given, And many whom he loves meet him in heaven. And many have to California gone- And ere another New Year's day shall dawn, They hope heap of gold to bring To the dear home to which their mem'ries cling.

And many more expect to (hither go With buoyant hopes, in eighteen-lifty-rwo. While gold is tempting them, they lightly heed, That Borne who've gone before are wilh the dead. Tfeath distant California's turf they sleep, While friends to them most dear, here sadly weep O'er blighted hopes, and deem the gold they sought. Of Utile worth to hearts with grief o'erfraught. And all the world this year hath held a Fair A( dis(an( London town and beauties rare, To the bright Crystal Palace have been brought.

And useful things as anywhere are bought. From distant Asia, to (he turbaned Turk Hath come (he Indian with his 'broidered work The Chinese with his costly silks is here The Italian with his song and minstrel dear. From France, and Spain, and Portugal they come The German, Russian and the Austrian Tho Prussian, Swede, Pane, and Yankee shrewd. And many more both civilized and rude, Like brothers here assemble. Some bring gems Bright as e'er shone in kingly diadems, And some bring farmer's tools, or beasts or birds Oh dear to tell you all, I have not words And I've a better melbod, too, to aid you, paid Which when the year hath closed, you'll grant hath For your trouble and your cash, and wiser made you Just let me brinor my paper Wednesday morn! And crown my labors with a little of your coin.

The "Summit Beacon's" lamp la burning bright, And I'm a friend to literary light, Aud bring you precious fruit from Wisdom's tree, And news from England and from Italy. And local news, and news political I bring, then toll about some well taught scho I A hint or two I give about the weather, And tell the price of butter, cheese and leather. I tell you when a worthy neighbor dios And now and then I bring religious news; And sometimes to your view, I e'en display A poet's dream, which he hath dreamed by day. Sometimes Old Phcebus greets me with a smile Sometimes behind a cloud ho hides awhile, While Boreas plays for me a ttirring air, Aud moans around my head so full of care. Ha, ha, ha, and now comes the sleet and rain, But I am at my duty's post again, And still I trudge along with honest joy, Your ever truly faithful CARRIER BOY.

Secret History of the War with England. Col. Miller of Vermont, who was formerly a representative in Congress from this State, is now a resident of Wyoming. In a speech at Warsaw, Col. Miller revived a charge that has been often made; that our government, though causing much blood to be shed in Canada, did not intend to conquer that territory, because by so doing, the free territory of the Union would he extended.

In proof of this assertion, Col. says that after Gen. Hull was convicted by a court martial, of "Treason and cowardice," and sentenced to be shot," he handed a letter to the president of the court, which proved to be an order from the Secretary of War directing him to surrender his army to the British, Col. Miller added. The Preisdont, Mr.

Madison, stayed the proceedings of the Court, which loft it in such a situation that any President, at any future time, could issue an order for the fulfilment of the sentence of tho Court! Gen. Hull's oath, as officer in the army of the United States, not to reveal his instructions from the War Department, prevented his defence to the public, of this traitorous act! It hung over him up to tho last hour of his life! The fiat for his execution could havo been issued at a moment's warning, even to the day of his death! Dr. Eustis remained at the head of the War Department until tho close of the year 1812, when ho was succeeded by John Arms-strong, who, of course, became acquainted with the above matters. Ho remained in office about two years, when, incurring the displeasure of President Madison, he was removed. Mr.

A. then presented to the Gov ernment a claim of some S30.000 the pay ment of which was refused. Mr. Armstonir then published a "Astounding disclosures," containing tho foregoing in relation to Gen. Hull: tho eovernment im mediately purchased the suppression of the work, by tho payment of Mr.

claim and ordered tire whole edition to be destroyed. This, it was supposed, was done; three copies of it still exist one of which is in tho possession of Col. Miller, another in that of Allen Stewart, of Utica, and the third, a mutilated copy, is in the hands of Judge Hutchinson, oi vvoousiock, Vermont. We have lonir entertained stronir suspic ions that the conquest of Canada was no part ot the plan ot tho Administration, in 1812. At the commencement of the war, England was engaged in a mighty conflict with Napoleon.

She could snare but a small force to defend the Canadas. Gen. Hull could have marched triumphantly thro' the Upper Province. But there was either imbecility or treason at Washington. Perhaps the Free Soil movement may bring out important truths.

There are those engaged in it who know all. Political. From tlnKew-York Tribune. vtrginia-a iessoit. The StateW Virginia has recently held her first Elfcction for State Officers under her Reformed Constitution, which has greatly elr-largcd the number of her voters extending the Right tf Su'rTrage to nearly evey white male adult citizen.

The Vs of Virginia, though almost unitormly beaten in tormer hlcctions, went into this contest with considerable hopes) )f success. The Whig National AdministraScft has rtainly aeservW Southern popularity iflfiSother; and flrwas recently calculated thiStcVirginia would seize the opportunity to expriss ner connaence ia Messrs. illmore, WeMer, and their assocunes in the Cabinet, including her own Stujaa-t. Then tho Whig candidate for Governor, 6e6rge W. Summers, is decidedly and manifoflly Jtio intellectual superior of his competitor, Joseph Johnson, and had powerfully aided in the Convention to secure the triumph of the West in the apportionment of Kepresentatives in the Legislature.

Virginia is essentially a conservative State more so than almost any other and the Administration is conservative the Whig party tried to show itself more conservative than its antagonist and even Mr. Summers, doing violence to his own sympathies and convictions, was induced to vaunt himself a better champion of Slavery than his competitor. This proved what Talley-. rand characterized as worse than crime a blunder. Slave-breeding Mecklenburg and Halifax went as strongly as ever for while non-slaveholding Brooke, Lewis, Doddridge, were disgusted and repelled.

So Mr. Summers is beaten some Ten Thousand votes, and the grasp of sham Democracy on the State is rather strengthened than otherwise. The prospect of a Whig ascendancy therein is asfaintand distant as atany former period. Now we do not say that the State could have been carried by a different line of conduct; we only urge that nothing was gained but probably much lost by the course actual- ly pursued. The platform of the Whig party of Virginia presented no point of decided and palpable advantage to the Forty Thousand new voters just admitted to the Right of Suffrage.

Now party 'Democracy' is but an empty name in Virginia as elsewhere, but it is an attractive name, and has the farther advantage of being generally a winning one. A mere name certainly is not much; but it is better than nothing. Now suppose the Whigs of Virginia had gone into the late contest on such a platform as this: 1. Free Common Schools in every neigh-; borhood where twenty scholars can be found within an area of three miles square and a free school on every inhabited area of six miles square at all events', 2. Tho termination of Slavery in the State on or before the 4th of July, 1876, either with or without Colonization as tho People shall decide: 3.

The full and prompt development of me mineral weaitn ana manumctunng capacities of the State by the aid of Specific Discriminating Duties on Imports, and or an active Mate pride, with alt possible Legislative facilities What then? 'Why, they would have been beaten that 's says an objector. Well, perhaps they would have been. But the; wottW have been beaten in the advo cacy oj Reforms vhic't mast ultimately prevail. It is morally just as certain that Virginia will cease to hold Slaves, will establish Common Schools, and will become one of the most populous and extensively Manufactur ing Slates in the Union, as that the world won't get burnt up before 1809 by aMillerite conflagration. Virginia is one of the largest of the Atlan tic States.

She has some waste land, (mainly mountainous,) but very much of excellent quality. She has one of the very best climates in the world. She has immense and diversified Mineral wealth. She has unexcelled Water Power. She ought to have far more Direct Foreign Trade than she has while for Manufactures generally no other State is so well situated as she is.

She can afford ample employment and subsistence to Ten Millions of thrifty, intelligent and happy people. Nay, within three or four generations she will. If her Whig politicians had but the courage to take a step forward and plant themselves immovably on the platform of Universal Emancipation, Universal Education and Universal Employment, through a full development of her Mineral resources and employment of her Water-power, they might in a few years have the State on their side. They have but to sow good seed, and in due season they will reap a plentiful harvest. But if they insist on keeping a days march behind, why then they will do so, that is all.

They need not thank us for telling them where they blunder, but they must excuse us for not blundering with them. The pro-Slavery bigots will be against them anyhow, and will always believe them too intelligent and concientious to be heartily favorable to a system which enables a part of the people to live indolently and extravagantly on the proceeds of another part, who are annuflly sold by the former into foreign bondage. It takes whited-sepulcher Democracy to go this right heartily, and the slave-breeders know it and act accordingly. So long as the Whig party shall try to out-Herod its antagonist in pan dering to this class, it will get beaten, and will deserve to get beaten. If a little sense shall be beaten through its thick skull, the chastening, though for the present grievous, win in uiecnu prove salutary.

POLITICAL ASPECTS. The able and observing editor of the Boston Atlas, in a late letter from Washington, thus speaks of political matters and pros pects 1 lie political elements are rapidly combin ing this city. Tho Union party scheme is abandoned as hopeless, and the southern democrats, who were the first to lead off in it, have given in their adherence to the democratic party, and expressed their determination to stand by tho nominations of the Baltimore convention, nnd upoa the platform e-rected by tho convention which mot in that city, in 1848, and nominated Cass and Butler. Chief among the originators of the Union par-ty movement, was Senator Foote, of Mississippi. Tho report was that ho expected to be tho Union candidate for the Vice Presidency, but has deserted the cause of party Unionism, and has returned to the fold of democracy.

As proof of this. I refer vou nar. ticularly to the speech made bv him on Fri day evening, before the Jackson Democratic Association, in this city, and which is reported in the Washington Union of this morninu. As a party name, or a rallying cry, Unionism is dead. There is not a member of Conifress in this city, that will now suffer his name to bo used in that connection, unless it be Messrs.

Toombs and Stevens, of Georgia, and from what I learn, indirectly, they are din. posed to abandon the causo as soon as convenient. Tho old party elements are fast finding their original gravitation; and before six weeks, you will lind the wliigs united as one man, in support of the principles and URages of tho party. A national convention will be held, and the whig, of every State will be therein represented. Nominations will be made for the Presidency and Vice Presidency and they will receive tho support of the leaders, and of tho rank and file, from Maine to California and I have a strong abiding faith that tho good cause will be victorious.

I have never known a greater, and certainly never a more gratifying change take place in the whig ranks, in so brief a tpacc, as in this city within the last fortnight. Men who were then desponding, now glow with hope, which day by day is becoming stronger. I say to the wliigs of New England, be of good cheer, "the clouds which lowered 'on our bouse," are fast dispelling and the dawn of apright-er day is fast approaching. Wno the Whig candidates will be, I shall not even venture a surmise; although no man acquainted with men, or who will open his eyes to view the signs of the times, can hesitate or doubt as to who one will be. The Whigs have an abundance of patriotic and able men from whom they can choose.

It is mir country, and not men, whom we are dispsfcl to serve. MB. CLAY'S EESIGNATION. The following admirable letter from the great Kentucky statesman, to the Legislature of that State, communicating his resignation as Senator, will bo read with mournful pleasure by every true American citizen Washington, 17th December, 1851. To the General Assembly of Kentucky: When you did me the honor to confer on me the annointment of a Senator from Kentucky, which I now j-i l-.

uoiu, in aicuitg in i uiu nut intend or expect to serve the entire term of six years. I had previously retired, finally, as I supposed. from that body. But out of the territorial acquisitions, resulting from the war with Mexico, momentous questions arose, seriously menacing the harmony and peace, if not the integrity, of the Union. I felt it to be my duty to return again to the Senate, and to contribute my humble aid, by an amicable settlement of those Questions, to avert the calamities with which we were threatened.

Such a settlement was attempted during the last Congress, is now in progress of execution, and I trust and hope will accomplish all the good that could be expected from any great measure adopted to heal national divisions and animosities, which had risen to such an a-larming height. On the approach of the present Congress, it was with much hesitation.proceeding partly from my feeble state of health, that I con cluded to return, for the last time, to the Senate. But I have no thought of ever again taking a seat in that body, after the close of the present session. Having come to this determination, I consider it incumbent on me to place it in the power of the General Assembly to appoint my successor during its present session. I do, therefore, hereby resign the office of Senator of the United States from the State of Kentucky, this my resignation to tane enect on tne nrst Monday of September, In dissolving this official relation, in which I stand to the General cannot forbear renewing an expression of my great obligations, and my profound gratitude, for tho many distinguished and gratifying proofs which it bas given to me ot its confidence and attachment.

I have the honor to be, With the highest respect, Your faithful and obedient servant, H. CLAY. From the Cincinnati Gtuettc. COTJETS OF PEOBATE. The new Constitution of Sec.

7, 8,) provides for a Court of Probate in each county, which shall be a Court of Ko-cord, open at all times, having jurisdiction in probate and testamentary matters, the appointment of administrators and guardians, the settlement of the accounts of executors, administrators and guardians, and such jurisdiction in habeas corpus, the issuing of marriage licenses, and for the sale of lands by executors, administrators and guardians as may be provided by law. This is an important provision. The entire jurisdiction of matters relating to probate. guuiuiuiisiup, is conicrreo. upon a uourt established for the purpose in each county Manybf the States have had sepunie Courts oi ine Kinu, unuer tne name ot Surrogates, Orphans' Courr, but in Ohio this busi ness has hitherto belonged to our" Courts of common neas.

Jivery one knows the inconvenience of transacting probate business in that Court. In its regular terms, its time is occupied with the matters, civil and crimi nal, belonging to its general mrisdfction. Applications relating to probate matters must, tneretore, almost ot necessity, bo brought to its notice, by an attorney, in the counties where two or three short terms are held in a year, it often become necessary in vacation to call together associate judges from distant parts of the county, at no little trouble and expense, to appoint'anJadminis-trator and approve his hond. The change from this to a Court havina jurisdiction of probate and kindred matters and none other, seems to us a good one. The Court will be accessible at all times; not thronged with adverso litinants and their retinues, but open for the disposal of probate business, promptly on personal application.

This is quite as important to the community as the contests more obstreperously waged in the Courts of general jurisdiction. It will demand not only a knowledge of the law, and mode of procedure on the part of the Judge, but patient and careful attention, vigilance and discretion. Not the least of tho benefits of the change in our opinion, is mai tne intervention ot lawyers in this business will be generally dispensed with. The Judge, familiar with tho requirements of the law, will bo able to ad-vise parties as to the performance of their general duties, and to render them precisely the aid which they need. Under the new system, we believe estates will be settled with far less expense, trouble and and delay.

The accounts of Administrators and guardians can be examined, scrutinized and ad justed more promptly and efficiently than unuer me present. The records of Probate Courts will ronuire care on the part of the Judge who is obliged to keep them, but there can hardly be more liability to omission or irregularity than ex ists in ine present, system. An enumeration of tho cases within the knowlcdire of any lawyer where titles have been questioned or litigated by reason of technical or other informalities in the proceedings of administra tors, would show the importance of knowledge and care on tho part of tho Court which direct such proceedings. On the other hand as tho judicial duties of Probato Judge are limited to two or three classes of matters, they may bo performed with such system. accuracy and exactness as to givo confidunco to me community in tne auministrators ot estates, and to prevent many of those irre gularities which have been a prolific source of mischief and litigation.

John 11. Warden has been elected Judge of Probato in this county, and will enter on the performance of his duties when the old Court of Common Pleas expires. A New Application or the Fitoitive Law. Two apprentices ran away from the service of John Uussell, filo manufacturer, at Smg Sing, New York. They escaped into Connecticut, and Mr.

Russell brought a complaint before Commissioner Ingcrjoll for their return," under the fugitive law.

Who has not heard of theworld-Tenowned Mr. Theysay? 1 presume his name is familiar with all men every-where.

'flip high and low, rich and poor, bond and free, blade and white, honored despised, and learwedand illiterate, civilized and barbarian. Catholic and Protestant, Mussulman and Christian, all nations, kindreds, tofrgufs have beard of Mr. TheVsny. Urn nalne is almost a household word, familiar alike to the lisping infant and the man of fourscore. But whohas -ever 'given the world a history of this eminept personage! Iumerous as biographers arc, nirmeriftis as they have been in times past, no one lias ever yet written and puhlished the life of Mr.

Theysay. Pardon me if I undertake the task of writing a brief history of him. His His fathers name was Slander: his mother's Tattler; of his genealogy nothing more is known. He was born in the town of Evil Report, in the kingdom of Sin. In what ago of the world he was born, tradition does not inform us and as this is not a matter of much importance, we let it pass now, to give our opinion when we speak of His We said it is not known in what precise age of the world Mr.

Theysay was bora. It is my opinion that he was born soon after Adam and Eve were expelled from the garden of Eden, though I do not deem it necessary to give the reasons on which this opinion is based. If am correct in this o-pinion, he must by this time be very far advanced in life, and we should naturally expect to witness in him all the evidences of feeble old age gray hairs, sunken eyes, and palsied limbs. But he is really as strong'and active, as fresh and fair, as hale and hearty as he ever was. Remarkable old creature His Education.

Mr. Theysay's education is very limited, as he never was admitted into any of the institutions of learning. What knowledge he has, he obtained principally from hearsay: hence, he does not have any correct knowledge of any thing. His deficient education has ever been a serious embarrasment to him; for he never dares to make a positive assertion, but guesses it is so, hopes it is so, and so on. His Personal Appearance.

I have spoken of him as being as strong and active, as he ever was. But who has ever seen Mr. Theysay? Have you? Has any one? Has the oldest man living? If any has, I have not. If any one has, I know not the man. In my opinion, he is as intangible 88 Professor Bush's resurrection body, which we can neither see, handle, analyze nor describe.

-But we know he because every body is talking about him. And I have come to the paradoxical conclusion that he exists and docs not exist; is every-where and nowhere is responsible and irrespon-isble a sort of 'wil-o-thc-wisp, jack-with-the-lantern' kind of being, whose personal appearance can never be described.

Theysay in your family? Drive him hence. Harbor him not a moment. Listen not to his vile slanders. He will involve you in trouble, while he will escape. Christian brother, has he visited your little religious community? Beware of him.

He will cause 'divisions to spring up among Already he has caused you to treat brother E. with cold indifference. Let him influence yon, and your once prosperous society will be destroyed. I would say to all men beware of Mr. Theysay.

What hurt does it do for me to throw stones at the fenco?" 'You do not know, my young "friend, who may be behind that tence, out ot your sight; and the stone you throw for sport may glance 'and put out somebody's eyes, or break his head." 'I shall throw stones as much as I please.

It's none of your business." 'I am very sorry to see you persist in do ing a mischievous tlung.and.add bad manners a bad habit I havo just seen accounts of two sad accidents from throwing stones, which ought to be a warning to boys against indulging such an evil and pernicious habit. A young man in Boston was riding on horse back when a stone thrown by a littlo boy hit the horse and frightened him, so that he started and threw the young man violently on the ground, injuring him very seriously. The horse, however, did not stop to see what he had done, but ran on through tho street, and struck a woman knocking her senseless upon a curb Btone. She was seriously in jured in the head, and so bruised that it is uountiul wneiner sue win recover, seemed, a very small thing for the little boy to throw a stone; but tho consequences wero dreadful. If the woman should die do you suppose that boy will ever forgive himself for throwing tho stone? 'But the other story is still moro snd.

A eon of Capt. Edward in Wilmington. was returning home from school. Just as ho was entering his father's gate, heard a sound in the street and turning his head was struck by a stone thrown by another little boy, which hit him in the eye, and instantly destroyed his sight. Now, that poor boy must go all his days with a disfigured face Rnd a blind eye, just because the other mischievous fellow would amuse himself by throwing stones.

These two cases met my eye the same day, in the newspapers, which shows that such things occur very often. And probably if, in the last case the stone had hit the boy on his temple, it would have killed hire- fiont throw tl.r IffiAKSFTSloS ElOODI A Paris corrfpondent of the N. V. Tribune gives the fcfkAviug particulars of a bold experiment: An interesting, anfl th (is far Successful, experiment irprm the transfusion of blood, was made some duvs go at the Hotel Dieu of Lyons. A wowan was brought into the hospital who had been seized with violent the consequence of a premature delivery.

Her condition seemed dosperale it presented all the symptoms of the agony that follows great loss of blood entire absence of color in the skin, paralysis of the limbs, almost complete blindness, but extraordinary rapidity of the pulse. Death appeared imminent, inevitable. Doctor Dolorme suggested transfusion. This was at first combatted by the oilier physicians as offering no chance of success, but was finally assented to, as, the ease being a desperate one, it could do no harm, even if it did no good. One of the young aspirants, residing in the hospital, offered to furnish the blood necessary to the operation.

A syringe was immersed in water and kept there till it became of a temperature a little higher than that of blood in circulation. The proper vein in the arm of the sufferer was then o-pened, and a fine canula, or tube, was then introduced to some length. The other end of the tube was then fitted to the syringe, which was enveloped in warm towels, and in which was the necessary quantity of pure human blood. The operator then gently forced into tho veins of the dying woman the reviving fluid. At this moment, as she afterwards declared, she felt a grateful warmth spread over her body, without having the reasoning faculty strong enough to trace it to any cause.

Soon after, she recovered in a great degree her senses and eyesight. A few hours later, a reaction manifested itself S3 violently, that the physicians were seriously alarmed. It seemed as if death might result as well from too much, too active vitality, as from vitality too much exhausted and enfeebled. But a calming potion soon diminished this unnatural action, and the patient has since been regularly improving. The last intelligence from Lyons states that it is now hardly possible that a relapse can occur, and that the cure may be set down as complete.

EULES FOR HEALTH Of all parts of the body, (says Dr. Robertson.) there is not one which ought to be attended to as the feet. Every person knows from experience that colds and many other diseases proceed from the 'wheel of tho and that the circulation of the blood may be very easily checked there. Yet, for all this, although every person of common sense should he aware of the truth of what we have stated, there is no part of the human body so much trifled with as the feet. The young and would-be-genteel-foot-ed, cramp their feet into thin-soled pinching boots and shoes, in order to display neat feet, in the fashionable sense of the term.

There is one great evil, against which every person should be on their guard, and it is one which is not often guarded against we mean tho change of warm for cold boots or shoes. A change is often made from thick to thin soled shoes, without reflecting on the consequences that might ensue. In cold weather boots and shoes made of good, thick leather, both in soles and uppers, should be worn by all. Water-tights are not good, if they are air-tigiit also; India rubber overshoes should never be worn except in wet, splashy weather, nnd then not very long at once. It is hurtful to the feet to wear any covering that is air-tight over them, and for this reason India rubber should be worn as seldom as possible.

No part of the body should bo allowed to have a covering that entirely obstructs the passage of the carbonic gas from the pores of the skin outwards, and the moderate passage of air inwards to the skin. Life can be destroyed in a very short time, by entirely closing up the pres ot the skin, irooa warm stockings ana thick soled boots and shoes are conservative of health, and consequently of human happiness Scientific American Satistics of Hi ngarv. Hungary has a territory of square miles, and popu lation of 14,000,000. It is divided as follows: 1. Hungary proper, including civil Scla vonia, Croatia, and the Heyduke districtsv 2.

Transylvania. 3. The Military Frontier. All those countries are legally, parts of the Kingdom of Hungary, and are subject to the King of Hungary, who, merely by chance happens to be tmperor ot Austria. He is not necessarily so any more than a King of Kngland is necessarily King ot Hanover.

The following is a more accurate description of the whole Kingdom of Hungary: Hungary proper comprehends: 1 Eleven Comitats or Counties beyond or west of the Danube, containing 2,000,000 of 2. Thirteen counties or this side to east of the Danube, with nearly 3,000,000 of people. 3. Eleven counties on this side of the river Theiss and Tibiscus with 2,000.000. 4.

Twelve counties beyond the Theiss, including the Ranat, 5. Sclavonia, with three counties, Syrmia, Vcrooz. and Posega and 500.000. 6. Croatia and Separate Districts.

Thus making Hungary Proper to consist of of people and 87,000 square miles. II. Transylvania, including tho Magyar, the Rechlcr, anil Saxon Districts, 2.000,000 of people, and twenty-five counties, on May 30th, 1848, was incorporated with Hungary. III. The Military Frontier, intended to guard against the Turks, includes six gene-raltz of Carlstat, Ban, Vnrndin.

Sclavonia, Banat. and Transylvania, which are divided into twenty regiments, and the same number of communities; with 2,500.000 of people and 15,000 miles.

7ru(A is strange stranger than fiction. Under this heading tho Long Island Star publishes an interesting tale, for tho extended details of which we cannot find room, (says tho exchange,) hut must content ourselves with giving the leading facts in a condensed form, for the benefit of our readers. A young grocer of good character and correct habits, commenced business in a good and improved neighborhood. His stock was small, as were his means, wnd his stock of customers was still smaller. His sales hardly met his expenses, and he was evidently going down hill," and an old grocer on the opposite corner predicted he would soon be at the bottom.

That the yoiwg grocer had reason to regret this opinion of the old grocer will appear. The latter had a daughter who had won the heart of the former. He offered himself her od was rejected. It was done, however, with the assurance that he was tls man of her choice, but that she acted in ohedience to her father's commands. Assured of the affecti ons of the woman of his choice, he set himself about removing the only obstacle in the way of their union the father's objection to his pecuniary prospect.

A year had elapsed and -lo, what a change The young grocer was now going up hill with the power of a steam locomotive; customers flocked to his store from all quarters, and even many had left the old established stand on the opposite corner, for the younger favorite. There was a mystery about it which puzzled the old grocer sorely, but which he could not unravel. He at length became nearly sick with the losses and asrtrravations. and vain attempts to discover the secret of Ins neiglibor's success. js4? At this juncture, Aneelica for that was the daughter's name contrived to bring a-bout an apparently accidental interview between the parties.

After the old man had become, through the intervention of the daughter, tolerably good humored, he inquired with great earnestness of the young man how he had contrived to effect so much in a single year, to thus extend his business and draw off the customers from the older stands. The young man evaded an answer but inquired if he had any further objections to his union wilh Angelica. None," replied he, provided you reveal tho secret of your success." This the young man promised when his happiness was complete. The old man commended his prudence on this point. The affair was all settled and the marriage soon took place.

The friends of tho youns counlo were all assembled, and among them many of the customers of tho two stores. Angelica and Thomas looked as well as could be, and the old gentleman was, if possible, happier than they. The bridal cake was about to bo cut, when the old man called out for the se cret." "Aye, the secret," the secret," exclaimed fifty voices. It is a very simple matter," said Thomas, "I ADVERTISE! The old gentleman was very, verv old fash- ioned.and while he shook Thomas heartily by the hand, and kissed Angelica fifty times o-ver, he merely muttered Why the dickens didn't I think of that THE FTEE AX THE CAPITOL. The fire was discovered between sevon and eight o'clock in the morning, and entrance to the Library was effected by breaking a panel of the door.

A table in the room was found in flames, which extended to the shelves on the northeast side. By the time assistance arrived, the room was so densely filled with smoke, that little could be done. The flames soon darted throught the ceiling which was of wood, and extended to the roof. The National Intelligencer says: We have stated above that about thirty-five thousand volumes of books were destroyed; this is estimated from the supposed number saved, of the Library being about tifty-fivo thousand volumes in all. The contents only of the principal hall were consumed, the North Room Law Library not having been visited by the fire, owing to the thickness of the intervening walls.

Besides the books, a number of superior paintings, hanging around the Library walls and between the alcoves, were included in the destruction. Of those we can call to mind Stuart's paintings i the first five Presidents; an original portrait of Columbus; a second por trait of Columbus; an original portrait of reyton nanaoipn; a portrait of Kohvar; a portrait of Baron Steuben by Pyne, an English artist of merit; ono of Baron do Kalb; one of Cortez; and ono of Judge Hanson of Maryland, presented to the Library by his family. Between eleven and twelve hundred bronze medals of the Vattemare exchange, some of them nearly ten centuries old, ami exceedingly perfect, are amongst the valuables destroyed. Of the statuary burnt and rendered worthless, we recollect a statue of Jefferson; an Apollo in bronzo by Mills; a very superior bronze likeness of Washington; a bust of Gen. Taylor by an Italian ar tist: anu a Dust ot Lafayette by David.

We have only heard of three books saved from tho Principal Library, namely, the Librarian's Register, an Account Book, and an odd volume of Lord Kingsbury's magnificent vu biiu Aliliquiucs oi jviexico. we must say that we consider tho system adont- ed by the Government for the protection of tho public buildings and property as essentially defective, as tho various conflagrations which have taken place first of the War Office building, next of this very Library part of the Capitol in 1825, then of the Treasury building, next of the General Post Office edifice, and now the Congressional Library again must prove The First Lesson. No teaching like a mother's! no lessons sink into tho vmrin soil of childhood so deeply as those learned at a loving mother's knee; the seed sown thus and then, may be hidden for years but it still lives, and influences the life nnd actions of the learner ever thereafter. Ill fares it with the man who has no remembrance of kneeling, as a child, beside his mother's knee, and learning his first lessons from her lips. He knows nothing of life's holiest memories; and groat is tho responsibility of that mother who confides her child's first teachings to another who allows a stranger to write on the tablets of her child's mind that which will bias its whole life-career, and be as indestructible as the mind itself.

The lives of the great men of history, most of them and when we say great men, wo understand good men prove this. They havo looked back to tho time when their teacher was their mother, and thence have traced a silent influence that was ever about them a "still heard amid the loud turmoil of busy life though 'Chances mocked and changes tilled tho cup of that chiefly led them onward, and set them in high places in sight of their fellows. And all great men have loved the memory of those mothers; other loves may have possessed them he love of honor, of fame, of woman: but the love of her who framed their childish accents, and formed their transcended all; set as a star apart, and worshipped when they looked to heaven.
