The rifles received are of the latest pattern, with Maynard primers and long range sights, and the sabre bayonet. Altogether they are the most snaky, deadly looking weapon we ever saw.

The poor electioneering slang of the Republicans about Lincoln having onc« "maul* ed rails" for a living, is not only untrue, bat it is a second-hand dodge, that is destitute even of originality as a political device. In 1843, when Judge Douglas run for Congress in the Qaincy District of Illinois, he was opposed by Mr. Browning, of Quincy. The Opposition made the discovery that Browning had been a prodigious rail-mauler in his youth, and rang all the changes upon it. They called hiin, as

The Bureau County (BL) Democrat, published at Princeton, the residence of Owen Lovejoy, says that during his boisterous and abusive speech the other day, he referred to the Mlliog of his brother at Alton a few years ago, and declared he would be avenged. But, adds the Democrat, he was very careful not to mention how he had defrauded the disconsolate widow of bis brother out of a small estate left her by her husband, leaving her dependent upon the cold charities of the world. The sister of the unfortunate widow is also an inmate of the Lee County (Iowa) poor house. Notwithstanding the destitute condition of this woman, this boisterous hypocrite is constantly prating about his charity to the runaway niggers that he takes in and protects, anil exultingly proclaims that the hungry shall never be turned away empty from the philanthropic doors of his home.

Then the steady jar, then the mingled clank as of a thousand shaken chains, and the ears are here. 'All aboard!' and 'all right!' follow each other in quick succession, and we are breathing the close and heavy air of a crowded domitory.— The car "lamps have gone out,-disgusted the little wakefulness of the sleepers has subsided, and the dim snoring outline of cloaks and shawls, and frightened" heads, flccked here and there liken troubled sea, with white, compose the landscape while over all, like pendulums, swing plethoric carpet bags, slowly to and fro, and little satchels, brisk as mantle clocks, and bonnets made of nothing, dance up and down, like blossoms in a rain all timed to the motion of the train. "But the dim grey turns to an old-eyed white, and the breathing bundles begin to stir out of an egg shaped package is hatched a woman, with hair disheveled, like Venus from the sea. A throe or two, and a rougher form emerges from a cloak and shawl, and shakes itself awake. A shapeless heap turns out a man, bearded like a pard. A pair of boots thrust out like bowsprits, goes out of sight as the owner comes into view. One is soothing an irritated hat with gentle touches of his elbow another pulling at his wilted collar. Disordered tresses are smoothed with hasty touches of the hand, and cvumblcd sleeves persuaded into shape. One lady has learned her lesson from Grimalkin, and makes her toilet precisely like a cat. "The cold, clear light of early morning is always trying to human beauty there are no tints to be borrowed, no softning shades to be worn a plain, cold stare that looks one out of countenance. But in a railroad train the ordeal is appalling. If a face ever looked faded it is then if the hair has any grey in it, it is sure "to show wrinkles are read, like a signboard, afar off. If there bo discontent in the heart it comes into the mouth, and everybody looks like people after a masquerade, or Richard after he becomes 'himself again."

HORRIBLE.—A man with an umbrella in his hand called at Senator Sumner's lodgings on Monday and enquired if Mr. Sumner was in? Senator Wilson was immediately .sent for, who, upon reaching the spot, at once asked the man standing in the entry what he wanted ot Mr. Sumner? The man replied that he had a little bill against him for tapping a pair of boots. Wilson examined the bill, said it was correct, and Sumner paid it whereupon the worthy cobbler spread his umbrella and left.— Burlingame soon arrived, but found no blood on the floor.

P. S.—Another man called next day! But no danger is apprehended Burlingame is there.

A Young Girl from New York Deatrted

in Nete Orleans—Afttwrihg Matrimonial Advertisements. [Fran the New Orieaas B*. June llth.] A resident of this city, who is a pwr but industrious mechanic,supporting alarge family in-the First District, was walking on the levee with his little son last evening, when,he observed a young woman, dressed very .poorly, walking eut toward the river at rapid pace. As she nearly crossed his path h? heard her sobbing as if in bitter~distress, and he naturally stopped and looked after her with some surprise. She had not got more that twelve or fifteen paces from him when the idea flashed up on his .mind that she intended committing suicide by jumping into the river. He immediately'ran after her, and grasping her arm tightly in his band, asked her what she was about to do. The girl, who is only about seventeen years of age, and of pleasing, almost beautiful features, exclaimed with great emotion, "Oh, let me go! For Heaven's sake let me go!" Our friend felt convinced by her words and manner that his suspicions were correct, and holding her firmly said, "I know what yeu are about to do,and shall prevent you." The girl asked him if he was a police officer, and thinking he might have more influence over her if he deceived her for a while, he told her he was, and. that she must go with him. He intended escorting her to the Lock-up, where he could have her arrested for safe keeping. On the way she related to him her story, frequently interrupted by bursts of anguish that told how heart-broken she was.

According to her statement, it appears that her parents who live in Twenty-fourth street, in Now York city, are people of good standing and well off, her father being a partner of a firm in the wholesale provision business. She had a happy home, and her parents loved her devotedly they were ever too lenient and trusting, she says. She attended school daily, and her companions were young and thoughtless girls always ready for fun or mischief, so long as they thought it harmless. One day several of the school-girls proposed that they should write an advertisement for a husband and publish it in the "personal" column of the Ilerald, so as to amuse themselves by reading the answers they might receive from silly-pated young men. This girl, in an unhappy hour, entered into the scheme and wrote the advertisment, requesting answers to be addressed to Marj-, at the Broadway Post-oflicc. The first day she got two answers, which she took to her companions, and they laughed merrily over them. The second day she went in the evening to the sub-Post-ofiice and found but one letter.

As she walked on she wa3 reading it.— It opened with a self introduction by the write, and closed with the words: "I am following you now." As she read this line she looked round, and a young man who had been walking close behind stepped to her side. She then saw how foolish she had been, and that the punishment of her indiscretion lay in being so much in his power as to allow him to address her. As a matter of course the first deviation from the strict line of her duty as a properly behaved young lady led to many other acts of indiscretion. She frequently met him by appointment when her school was out, and walked for hours in his company.
