(like too many of our

regular Doctors) are a curse to community Better, far better that nature bo left to her own operations. When we observe physicians of great and enlarged mental powers whose lives have been devoted to earnest, unwearied study, thus enriching their minds with all the professional lore of foimer and the present time, when we .see such men tremble beneath the responsibility of duties in battling with disease, we are struck •with amazement at the rashness of mere pretenders who*e minds have scarcely expanded with a single jdst conception of medical science. The life and health of maif, though but a "span, are far too precious fo bo %htl) or re He ply tampered

with. Fearful, yea, thrice fearful will be the reckoning of that man who deals falsely or lightly with the life and health of his fellow-man. Let all the lights of science which stream brightly and gloriously up from the past 6hine with telescopic intensity upon our professional pathway, yet will the shadows of doubts and uncertainty at times flit around and above us then will the wise and prudent pause, reflect, move on with care and caution but the bold, the daring, the ignorant dash recklessly on dealing blows alike on patient and disease.

In the political world deep games are being played. The subject of the next Presidency is moving upon the minds of the political wire-workers. Many aspirants will appear upon the stage some with strong, some with weaker influence to back them. The friends of Senator Seward are already in the field moving silently but mightily for the prize, yet are there strong currents setting in against him. His friends will seek to carry the next Legislature in New York, secure his legislative nomination, and with this great influence go before the other States. Success in that enterprize will give them great power which may ultimate in triumph, but we doubt the success of the game. That giant genius SAM intends to have a finger in the Presidential pie he has determined in the counsels of his own mind, to preserve this government from the influence of foreign power, to preserve and perpetuate this glorious fabric of empire, and for this noble purpose he will select his own men. Who they will be, is yet unknown. The time has been when travellers would hear the praises of democracy borne on every ^breeze, her triumphs were recorded in every journal, her high destiny predicted by every tongue her mighty men and ruling minds have passed away and their mantles have fallen on no worthy successors the pristige of her invincibility is forevc-r gone.

The America brings advices to the 31st. There has been no change in the a flairs in the Crimea.

Attention is now concentrated on the Vienna Conference. It is represented that there is great deal of difficulty upon the third point, although the demand of the Allies have been much modified. The

Russian Plenipotentiaries referred the matter to St. Petersburg!!. Nothing further could be done until a reply was received, although the fourth point will probably be discussed in the meantime.

The French Minister of Foreign Aftairs had been in London to confer with the English Cabinet on momentous questions.

The latest dates from London are Friday night the 31st, when it was stated that Dohougn doL'hags, French Minister of foreign Affairs had been in London for conference, and left on that night for Paris.— lie will remain in Paris for two nays and then proceed to ienna. He was closeted with the leading Minister for three hours 011 Friday, and subsequently had a lengthy audience of the Queen. He will bear to ienna the irrevocable determination of the Allies 011 the third point.

The Western Powers did not demand the destruction of Sebastopol, but the Reduction of the Russian territory.

The Russian Plenipotentiaries have rib power to act on this point. Ihe matter was remitted to St. Petersburgh. All the Plenipotentiaries had sent to their governments for instructions.

Gortschakoff, on tha 20th, moved for the admission of Prussia. The special correspondent .-of the London Times, at Sebastopol, describes the condition of the army as much improved.

The actual works of the seige make no

progress to justify favorable prophecies,

A formidable Russian force has assem-

bled around Eupatoria, and virtually beseiges the place. But the Russians could not hold it if taken, as it lies completely under the guns of the English fleet.

Lord Raglan's despatches announces that a steady fire had been kept up. No change in the aspect of affairs. Important operations, however, were going on.

The Rusians continued to strengthen the works recently thrown up in advance of the Malakoff tower.'

There were continual night encounters between the French and Russian riflemen. The latter were repeatedly dislodged, but again returned to their pits, nnder co^ ei 0 the Russian batteries.

The British frigate Rifer destroyed the Martello tower £ndbarracks, at Digamitara which the Russian recently erected for the defence of their communication between Anapa and Keshieh.

The Circassians menanced by land the earth batteries, renewing but failed to attack as promised.

They, however, took and burned a small fort at t'he head of Saugak Bay. The death of Menschikoff is reported.

Reports have been received of the French division in Besarbia. Galina had been occupied by a strong Russian garrison, and the export of corn from Besarbia prohibited.

The Paris Presse says that the statement is contradicted by the other papers that the Allies had assented to a truce.

A manifesto from the Holy Synod of the Russian Church, incites the Russian nation to defend their faith,

ENGLAND.—The Sardinian question was being discussed in the British Parliament. England engages to borrow,money at 5 per cent., or to loan the same to Sardinia at 4 percent.

The Roebuck committee still continues their inqviry. .. Certain papers connected with Admiral Dundass' conduct before Odessa were refused by the commons.

There is a motion on the books, to render the Indian army available in the European war.

Parliament adjourned over Easter till the 16th inst. Nine ships of the advance British squadron sailed from Deal'on the 28th.-

Mr. Buchannan attended a dinner at the Seamen's Hospital, London, where he returned thanks for the aid rendered to 1500 sick American sailors. Lord Palmerston presided.

Forged bills of lading appeared in the Liverpool market to the extent of £14, 000 sterling. All shipped at Charleston S. C. by James E. Nicholas.

Hie fraud was accomplished by inserting the word "hundred" after the units in the body of the bill.

SPAIN.—Vienna papers state that Spain and Portugal had acccded to the Western Alliance, and signed a treaty at Paris on the 21st of March. The report, wants, cpnfermation.

Espartero resisted the demand for a democratic modification of the Constitution. Madrid was tranquil.

PRUSSIA.—The difficulty between Austria and Prussia is increasing. The Prussian Cabinet retorted upon the Austrian Circular of March the 18th, by sending the circulars to the Prussian representatives at the German Courts, respecting Austrian integues with the German diat. The language of the circular is quite hostile to Austria. The circular further charges Austria with dissimulatiQli, threatening Prussia with military dangers, while to ihe rest of iiurope shs talks confidently of peace.

Notwithstanding the declaration of neutrality by Swecden, she is fitting out a fleet with provisions for three months.

CHINA.—Shanghai dates to Feb. 6th, state that the French attacked the city, and were repulsed with loss by the insurgents.

The country around Canton is in the hands of the insurgents, who officially notify their intention to maintain a strict blockade.

There were rumors of another repulse of the French. -yW:v

to leave the church, and while

the priest's order was being carried out, the friends of the excommunicatad man, a lar^e number of whom were without, including a few within the building, and the party who favored the priest, pitched into each other.

The religious exercises were suspended and a general fight ensued outside the buildin0-. It is proper to state that those who espoused the cause of the delinquent member were not Catholics. No one was killed, though seven! were very badly bruised.

To-day there was great excitement, the case came before the authorities, and the priest and a large number of those concerue'l were held to bail in one thousand dollars each. The priest was subsequently arrested for private damages done to the excommunicated member. At the last accounts the excitement was intense, and several oil 1 anests were reported to have been in 11e More fighting was expected.

The object of his love appears to have been the daughter of Mr. Eberhard but whether her conduct toward him justified the rash act, we have no further evidence than is contained in his letter. She was in the house that evening, but he did not see her, as she was visiting a lady who occupied the rooms 011 the second floor.

Death of a Great Man.

We deeply regret to have to announce the death of the Hon. Joseph G. Marshall, of Madison, Ind. He died at the house of Mr. R.K. White, on Broadway, between Third and Fourth, whence his remains are to be taken to Madison at 10 o'clock this morning. He had been afflicted with bronchitis for about five years, and the disease, being much aggravated by a long speech which he made before the Supreme Court in February last, became consumption. He left home two or three weeks ago on his way to the South in the hope that his health might be benefitted by a genial climate but, on his arrival in Louisville, he found himself too ill to go further and remained here to die.

In the death of Mr. Marshall, Indiana and tfie West have sustained a most serious
