In another column will be found the prospectus of one of the most splendid magazines in the world. Among the exotic and indigenious tenants of the garden of polite literature, none merit a higher rank than this monthly floral queen. Admiration for its excelling charms is a tribute which the reader, if endowed with a solitary glimmering ray of appreciation, cannot well withhold. The artistic engravings, the diversified prose, and sparkling gems of poesy, enriching every page of this excellent periodical, make it tho mould of fashion, the monitor of the age, and, in a word, the nonpareil of monthly exchanges.
flS" Wo desire to call the attention of our readers to the new advertisement of A con WINN. The Major informs us that he contemplates a change in business, and offers to sell his entire Stock at cost for cash. We advise all our friends to take advantage of this liberal offer and give him call.

For tb« Review.
WILL THE FABXER SELL HIS HOGS ON CREDIT?
MR. EDITOR This ia a question of absorbing interest to the merchant, mechanic, and in fact to all classes as the liquidation of thousands of dollars of debts depend upon the hog crop, and this liquidation cannot be effected if the hog3 are sold on crcdit. The mechanic whose labor has been sold to tjic farmer on a promise to pay Christmas—tho merchant who has supplied tho farmer all through the long year with Groceries and Dry Goods—in good faith that when the pork was sold the debts would be paid—are doomed to meet with a disappointment—a grievous disappointment, if the farmers now sell their pork on a crcdit—and that too, not because there is no money to buy it there is money, good money and plenty of it, but, forsooth, because they can get a liitle higher price. Would this be right Defraud a creditor of his honest dues because it puts a little more money in your pocket? De. cidedly not. *3'"'
But will the farmer be getting' niore for his pork. Speculating in pork is like tossing up for chances-—"Iieacfe you win, tails I lose." The best men and the strongest firms have gone down under the operation. No man or set of men have a right to dabble in pork, unless they have the money, and more especially in such times as these, when the whole monetary world has been shaken to its centre, and no one can tell what revulsions may yet follow. The farmer holds in his hands the means, and has the power to apply those means to the immediate relief of the pressure. It will.be seen whether or not they will do it. I know there arc many, very many farmers who have a high sense of honor in regard to meeting their debts at maturity. Such men, to their honor be it said, are always up to the mark. They never make up a rueful face, and come to their creditors with the complaint, which they wish to pass for an excuse, that the price of produce is so low that they can't afford to sell it— which amounts to nothing more than saying to their creditor, "It makes no difference to us how much you will have to sacrifice on account of not getting what we owe you, but icc dont intend to sacrificc a cent—not wo !.if you never get it." But, if through some accident or misfortune unavoidable, he fails to meet his contracts, he comes forward and states the facts, with an honest conviction that he has done all that a man could be expected to do. Stfch men are an honor to any community, and in a community of such men hard times and a money crisis is rarely if ever seeu. I hope, Mr. Editor, that our formers will sec that it is not to 'their interests alone to sell the present hog crop for cash, but the interest of the whole community is involved.
A MERCHANT.
THE QUEENS OF FRANCE.—The Dublin University Magazine, commenting upon the lives of the royal and imperial wives of France, states there are but thirteen out of sixty-seven on whoso memory there is no dark stain of sorftjw and sin. A cotemporary, in summing up tho statement ays:
Of the others, cloven were (Jivorced, two died by the executioner nine died cry young, seven were soon widowed, three were cruelly traduced three were exiled three were bad in different degrees of evil the prisoners and the broken-heart-ed made up the remainder. Twenty who were buried at St. Denis, since the tiino of Charlemagne, were denied the rest of tho grave. Their remains wore dragged from the tomb, exposed to the insult of the revolutionary populace, and then flung into a trench and covered with quick-
A DREADFUL SPECTACLE.—It will be romcmbcred that the Russian lino of battic ship Lefort lately capsized at noon-day in the Bay of Finland, carrying down twelve hundred persons, of whom nearly four hundred were females. A writer in the London Times from St. Petersburg says: "Such persons as were on deck at the time were at oncc washed away, but the divers found no less than 1,100 corpses in the cabins 'tween decks, and in the hold of the vessel, all clinging to some portion of the timbers of the ship, or to cach other. Tho horror of this fearful sight appears to have been aggravated by the circumstances that tho bodies were already far gono into decomposition, and with few exceptions, the eyes were wide open and glaring. The effect of this dreadful spectacle on the divers was such that one of them was totally unable for many dnys to recount the ghastly scenes he had witnessed down in that hive of putrefying corpses, and on his persistent refusal to repeat his visit there was sent home."
SOMETHING TO THINK UPON.—In Prof. Hitchcock's late work on Geology, he has a chapter upon "The Telegraph System of the Universe," in which he broaches the remarkable theory that "our words, our actions, even our thoughts made an indelible impression upon the Universe." This proposition he endeavors to sustain by an appeal to well established principles of science. He shows by the doctrine of mechanical reaction, that every impression which man makes by his words, or his movements upon the air, the waters, or the solid earth, will produce a series of changes in each of those elements which will never end. Not a word has ever escaped from mortal lips, he contends, but it is registered indelibly upon the air we breathe. And could man command the mathematics of superior minds, every particle of air thus set in motion could be traced through all its changes, with as much precision as the astronomer can point out the path of the heavenly bodies. In like manner, the pictures of every occurrence propagate themselves through the reaction of light on the substances on which it impinges.

A I Dec. 2—A- 31.
Tho royal mail steamship America, Cap tain Long, with Liverpool advices to the 21st ult., three days later than those fur nished by the Fulton and Kangaroo, arriv cd here early this morning.
The America passed the Persia going in to Liverpool. The Cotton market closed dull and prices were nominally 4@^d. lower.
BreadstufFs were very dull, and slightly declined. Provisions closed dull at a slight decline
The English money market was not es sentially changed since Wednesday's ad vices.
Consols closed at 89A-. ... Several heavy failures have occurred in England, and an eminent American house in London lias been in serious difficulties but succeeded in sustaining itself.
The money pressure in England is undi minished. The continental markets, were improving. -i
Another attempt to launch the Leviathan steamer has failed. The political news is unimportant.
The America brings $250,000 in spc cic. The Banking house of Mr. Peabody has been relieved by the Bank of England to the amount of .£1,000,000, and its difficul ties are over.
The attempt to launch the Great East ern was made on tho 19th ult., and it was found impossible to move her. Some riotous proceedings had taken place among the unemplo3'cd operators at Nottingham. The windows of some of the provision shops were broken. Meetings were interdicted and special constables sworn in to keep the peace. All was tranquil on Friday.
At a meeting of the bond holders of the Erie Railroad, confidence was expressed in the intrinsic value of the line, and a committee was appointed to raise further sub .script:on3 of capital, to prevent the foreclosure of the property.
The powder mills at Maycnce had exploded, destroying a portion of the town.— Thirty persons wore killed and five hundred wounded. 1
Damage estimated at £80,000. A groat fire occurred at St. Pctersburgh on tho 5th ult., during which many lives were lost. No particulars arc given.

A Carlist Republican conspiracy had detected in Barcelona, tho ramifications of which extended to France.
FROM KANSAS. ST. LOUIS, Doc. 2.
At a meeting held at Lawrence, on the I9th ult., for the purpose of considering tho Action of the late Constitutional Convention, resolutions were adopted declaring the* Lccompton Constitution a gross violation of the expressed wishes of the people of Kansas—a fraud begotten of a fraud— and solemnly pledging themselves to resist to the last all attempts to thrust it upon them repudiating the election proposed to bo held the 2lst of December suggesting that if the Territorial executive does not immediately call a special session- of the Territorial Legislature, Gov. Robinson shall call a special session of the State Legislature at tne earliest moment.
A resolution recommending the appointment of local Vigilance Committee and to sustain that Committee, was also adopted,
E. B. Whiteman presided. Speeches were made by Messrs. Lane, Robinson and others.
Several Pro-.Slavery papers in tho Territory have taken strong grounds againsc the Constitution.

OUT OL' TUNE.
The Black Republican papers arc making a great ado,, just now, because the Kansas Convention did not make provision for submitting the whole constitution to the people for their approval or rejection. They think it a monstrous outrage on the rights of the people, and they are correspondingly indignant Now, we don't think they have any right to get into a passion on that acsoant."Thoy have'all along been opposed to the people deciding ibr themselves whether- they shall hav.e slavery or not. They have been insisting that Congress, should determine that, and not the people. The Lccompton Convention seems to have acted on the Black-Re-publican idea, and are going to ask Congress to decide the matter without the people having had their say. Wc think the Black-Kepublicans had hotter dryTup.-— This sending the constitution to Congress, without the people who are to be governed by it having had an opportunity to say whether it suits them Or not, is but carrying out the Black-Republican idea. While Democrats may have a right to complain, tho Black-Republicans have none. The people of Kansas have a just reason and right to be indignant—not so the BlackIie^ublicans in the States, for they opposed their having anything to say in the matter. We supposed it would not" be long before tlicy would try and occupy our ground.— Cin. Enquirer. iei m—ii-V'-' ftofln undertaking to raise the submerged portion of the transatlantic telegraph cable, the shore end has been broken. This will very seriously embarass the enterprise of securing it. It was carried oa under the superintendence of Mr. Bright, the late engineer of the company.

AN INFERNAL MACHINE. The Montgomery (Alabama) <Mail>, having previously given some account of an infernal machine recently invented by a gentleman of Alabama, says:
We saw it at the fair grounds yesterday. There is no doubt but that it can be adapted as an instrument for immense destruction of human life in time of war. When steam-power shall have been applied to it it will send bullets in such quick succession that the different reports cannot be distinguished one from another, and the leaden messengers of death will go on errands of destruction in a stream, rather than one at a time, not unlike a volume of water from the nozzle of a fire-engine.— We do not mean that will send molten lead but that the bullets, dropped into the machine one at a time, will flow out with tremendous velocity in a stream. ———<>———
FACILITY OF OBTAINING DIVORCES IN INDIANA.—The Fort Wayne (Ind.) Jcffcrsonian of the 24th inst., speaking of the Circuit Court being held in that county remarks "There are thirty-four applications for divorce, twenty of which have already been granted, .The case with which diTOrces can be obtained under our laws wc regard as a premium offered to matrimonial infidelity and family disruptions. Indiana is fa3t becoming the Botuay Bay of bad husbands and frail wives. Our laws should be reformed, or the marriage state will become a mere experiment, or tho occasion for gratifying temporary lust and passion."
WIIAT 11E irllGHT HAVE BEEN. J5hn G. Holland, editor of the Spring-fieJd-Jlepublican, has" bccn^r^ticaTJng in Vc'randrit^lookirig around among the farmers, .and.writes to that-sheet asjfollows:
Imagine your correspondent imagining the life he might have led (and camc very near leading, for that matter,) among the hills as a farmer. lie would have grown up stalwart and strong, with horny hands, and a face as black as the ace of spades.— lie would have taught school winters (as he did), worked on the farm summers, and gone out haying for fifteen days in July, at a dollar a day, and taken for pay the iron-work and running-gear of a wagon.— At two-and-twenty, or thereabouts, he would have begun to pay attentions to a girl with a father worth two thousand dollars, and a spit-curl on her forehead—a girl who always went to singiug-school, and 'sat in the seat," and sung without opening her mouth—adarnation pretty girl any way. It would have been a strife between him and Tom Butts to see who should have her. Well, after seeing her home from singing-schooHor two seasons (Tom Butts being triumphantly "cut out,") and taking her to the Fourth of July, and gctting about a hundred dollars together, he wo.uld have married her and settled down. Years would ptfss away, and that girl with tho spit-curl Would have eleven children, just as sure

you live—seven boys and
four girls. Wo should have had a hard time bringing them up, but they would aoon be able enough to do the milking, and help their mother washing-days, and J, getting independent at last, and feeling a little stiff in "the joints, should be elcctcd member of the Legislature, having been assessor and school committee for years.— In the evening of my days, with my pipe iu my mouth, thirteen barrels of cider in the cellar, and the Springfiel Republican in my hands, (weekly,) I should sit and look over the Brighton market,,through a pair of gold-mounted spectacles, and wonder what you put such a strange silly letter as this in the paper led. Ah,well!— There are worse lives than that led by. those ho despise them.
