THE New Brunswick Legislature recently passed a law abolishing imprisonment for debt, but, greatly to the disgust of the people, the Supreme Court has stepped in and granted an injunction restraining the Sheriff from releasing prisoners from custody, holding that, under the British North American act, local Legislatures have no jurisdiction.

JUDGE WINANS does not correctly represent the Republicans of his district in advocating Free Trade, and will probably be superseded at the coming election.— The Springfield Republic expresses surprise aUhe repetition of the demagogue cry of "rich, richer, poor, poorer," by Mr. Winans, when *'we might fairly have expected of his judicial mind a candid investigation of the facts, antecedents to th's cheap begging of the question."— The Repubtie also gives him this gentle hint, which may be useful in case he should take up the Tariff theme again:

Mr. Winans declares that a protective tariff "discourages marriage and stimulates and promotes speculation and gambling, vice and immortality." This is putting the case very feebly Why does he not hold the tariff chargeble also with the

growth

or infidelity, the prevanence of

urglary, the equinoctial storm and the Texas cattle disease?

THE American Colonization Society Had quite passed out of memory, along with the rest of the tosewater accompaniments which were used to disguise the evil odor of slavery, and we had supposed had duly collapsed, until we saw the report of a nteetlng of its7 remains in New York recently. «From thence we learn that it is still running, and that, as its managers proudly boast, it has during the last four years sent twenty four hundred American citizens, of dusky complexion to the wilds .of Liberia. At the same rate, incase the world doesn't go to smash tdo soon by the end of time, a township in South Carolina or Mississippi might be depopulated—that is, if the natural increase of the colored population could be checked, and provided the aforesaid population would consent to make the voyage. But s'nee, this country, they are afforded an equal chance with the rest of God's creatures even unto holding seats in Congress, who of them wants to be exported? How ever, if those who feel that tb's country is not broad enough for both the negroes and themselves take satisfaction

send

ing four hundred colored per annum to Liberia, and paying out several hundred dollars for every one who goes let them continue the "work." It is entertaining and quite harmless. The society want funds and will gratefully receive the con tributions of all such. ok V. v?

"PAP'' Thomas is'the caption of an excellent article in the Chicago RepUbli can. The editor quotes the proverb, "A good conscience is a continual feast," and remarks that if this is true the Agamemnons who are putting forth such prodigious exertions to haul "Pap'' Thomas over the ooals must be undergoing the tortures of a moral famine. Meanwbile the object ef all these unsoldierly persecutions treats his detractors very much as the moon treats the baying of the dogs— while they contemn, defame, or undervalue, insult, scoff, slander,' nbnse and wrong, he comforts liiuself with a good conscience, and vindicates himself by contempt alone.t-•t According .u Shakspeare, 'here is such a thing as vaulting ambition which falls on 'tother side, and we think those- who-are so keenly anxious to pluck away from the brows of the "old man inflexible'' the larrets which a grateful people have placed there, will find that ,they have succeeded only in exalting where they intended to debase in purifying the reputation tkey intended to smirch in concentrating anew the popular gate upon the great man they hope to rtfurualt into„$nd in compellipgf the politicians, in 1872, to nominate Ma-jor-General George H. Thomas -for the Presidency^ as the Standard-bearer of the Republican party, as the only man whose heroism, achievements, popularity and nobility of nature, tempered with a woman's modesty his own behalf, can make assurance doubly sure—can make of that campaign against the Democracy.^ JiashJ ville fight.

THE Indianapolis Journal anxiously inquires, will the Democracy please settle upon their tariff platform? The Indiana Democracy refioi^d in favor o£/ree sugar, tea and coffefe b#fo?|a*ia edal, iron and lumber. T» dUcaijf times is fo| cheap!} Fj iron, co#a&ui^ei^d fort«xed tigfee, tea and sugar.

THE BOX

TUJVPTEL.

HOW THE CAPTAIN WON HIS BET.

AN OIiD BUT GOOD STORY.

The 10:15 train glided from Padding ton, May 7,1847. In the left compartment of a certain first-class carriage were were four passengers of these, two were Worth desciption. The lady had ajsmooth white delicate brow, strongly-marked eyebrows, long lashes, eyes that seemed to change color, and a good-sized, delicious mouth, with teeth as white, as milk. A man could not see her nose for her eyes arid mouth, but her own sex could and would have told us some nonsense about it. She wore an unpretemi:ng, grayish dress, buttoned to the throat with lozengesliapetl buttons' and'a Scotch shawl that agreeably evaded the responsibility of color. She was like a duck, so tight her plain feathers fitted her and there she sat smooth, snug and dilicious, with a book in her hand and a soupeon of her snowy wrist just visible as she held it. Her opposite neighbor was what I call a good style of man—the more to his credit, since he belonged to a corporation that fre quently turns out the worst imaginable style of young man. He was a cavalry officer, aged twenty-five. He had a mustache, but not a repulsive one not one of those sub-nasal pig-tails, on which soup is suspended like dew on a shrub it was short, thick, and black as a coal. His teeth had not yet been turned by tobacco smoke to the color of tobacco juice his clothes did'not stick to nor hang on him they "sat on him he had an engaging smile, and, what liked the dog for, his vanity, which was inordinate, was in its proper place, his heart, not iu his face, jostling mine and other people's, who have non in a word, he was what one oftener hears of than meets—a young gentleman. He was conversing in animated whisper with a companion, a fellow-officer—they were talking about, what it is far better not to do, women. Ojir friend clearly did not wish to be overheard, for he cast, ever and anon, a furtive glance at his fair m-rt-i'w, and lowered his voice. She seemed completely absorbed in her book and that reassured him. At last the two soldiers came down to a wlr'sper, and in that whisper (the truth must be told) the one who got down at Slough, and was lost to posterity, bet ten pounds to tb-ee that he who was going down with us to Bath and immortality would not kiss either of the ladies opposite upon the road. "Done! Done!" Now I amjorry a man I have hitherto praised should have lent himself, even in a whisper, to such a speculation but "nobody is wise at all hours," not even when the clock is striking five-and-twenty and you are to consider his profession, his good looks, and the temptation—ten to three.

After Slough the party was reduced to three at Twyford one lady dropped her handkerschief Captain Dolignan fell on it like a tiger, and returned it like a lamb two or three words were intercharged on that occasion. At Reading the Marlborough of our tale made one of the safe instruments of that day he bought Times and a 'Punch the latter was full of steel pen thrusts and wood-cuts. Valor and beauty deigned to laugh at some inflated humbug or other pucrtured bv Punch. Now laughing together thaws our human ice long before Swinden it was a talking match—at Swindon who so devoted as Capt. Dolignan—he handed them out —he souped them out he toughchickened them— he brandied and chochinealed one, and he brandied and burnt-sugared the other. On their return to the carriage, one lady passed into the inner compartment to inspect a certain gentleman's seat on that side of the line.

Yon have se6n dogs meet an unknown female of his specie how handsome, how cmprcsse, how expressive he becomes such was Dolignan after Swindon, and, to do the dog justice, he got handsomer and handsomer and you nave seen a cat conscious of approaching cream—such was Miss Hay thorn she became demurer and demurer presently our Captain looked out of the window and laughed this elicited an inquiring look from Miss Hfivthorn. "We are only a mile from the Box Tunnel." "Do you always laugh a mile from ,tlie Box Tunnel?" said the lady. '-Invariably.c "What for?"

'uWhy!

hem! it's a gentleman's joke."

"Oh, I don't mind its being silly if it makes me laugh." Captain Doglinan. tlii's encouraged, recounted to Miss Haythorn the following: A lady and her has band sat together going through the Box Tunnel—there was one gentleman opposite: it was pitch dark after the tunnel the lady said, "George, liowabsnrd of you to salute me going through the tunnel" "1 did no such thing!" "You didn't?" "No! Why?" "Why, because somehow I thought you did!" Here Captain Doglignan laughed,and endeavored to lead his companion to laugh, but it was not be done. The tiain entered the Tunnel.

Miss Havthorn—"Ah!" Dolignan—"What is the matter?" Miss Havthorn—"I am frightened." Dolignan—(moving to her side) "Pray do not be alarmed, I am near vou."

Miss Havthorn—"You are near me, verv near me, indeed, Captain Dolignan. Dolignan—"Yon know my name!"

Miss Havthorn—'T heard your friend mention it. I wish we were Out of this dark place."

Dolignan—"I cculd be content to spend hours here reassuring you, sweet lady." Miss Hay thorn—'Nonsense!"

lolignan-t"Hpreep!"

Miss Haythorn's scream lost a part of its efiect because the engine whistled forty thousand murders at the same moment and fictitious grief .makes itself heard when real can not.

Between the tunnel jmd Bath your i|ig friendliad jtimft^p afik himself •ffihfcli i» pwndnft. had Beewmarked by that dd$cate reserve whiejiis supposed to distingtigh the perfect gentleman.

WitKa long face, real or feigned, he held open [the door—his late friends attempted to escape on. the other side—iui"ossible! they must pass him. She whom had insulted (Latin for kissedL deposited somewheri&st his fSet ail&olreflgeotle, blushing reproach the other, whom he bad nor liwnlted, darted *red-hofcdag-gers at^ijgiji fepmj^r jiyfs, and so they parted.

It was, perhaps, fortunate for Dolignan that he had the grace to be friends with Major Hoskyns, of his regiment, a veteran langhed at by the" youngsters, .for the Major was to look coldly upon billiard balls and cigars he had seen cannon balls and linstocks. He had also, to tell the truth, swallowed a good bit of the messroom poker, but "with it some sort of moral "poker, which made it as impossible for Major Hoskyns to descend to an ungentlemanly word or action as to brush his own trowsers below the knee.

Captain Dolignin told this gentleman his story in gleefnl accents: bnt Major Hoskyns heard him coldly, answered that he had known a jnan to loose his life for the same thigg. 'That Ls nothing," continued the Major, "but unfortunately he deserved to lose it."

At this the blood mounted to the yoiinger man temples, and his senior ad ded, "I mean to say he was thirty-five you, I presume, are twenty-one."! a .-«i "Twenty-five." ':h"That is much the same thing you will be advised by

4me?"

"If yon will advise me/' "Speak to no one of this, and send White the £3, that he may think yon lost the bet." i, ,. "That is hard, when I won it. "Do it, for all that, sir "Let thedis believers in human perfectibillitv know that the dragoon, oapable of a blush, did this virtuous, action, albeit with violent reluctance, and this was his first damper. A week after these evertts he was.at a ball. He was in that state of :factitious, discontent which be longs to us amiable English. lie was looking'in vain for a lady equal in personal attractions to the idea he had formed ofGeerge Dolignan as a man, when suddenly there glided past him a most delightful vision! a lady whose beauty and symmetry took him by the eyes— another look: "It can't be! Yes, it is!"

Miss Haythorn! (not that he knew her name!) but what an apotheosis! The duck had become a pea-lien—ra-diant, dazzling, she looked twice a* bean tiful and almost twice as large as before. He lost sight of her. He found her again She was so lovely she made him ill—and he, alone, must not dance with her, speak to her. If lie had bec-n content to begin her acquaintance in the usual way, it might have ended in kissing, but having begun with kissing i: must end in nothing. As she danced sparks of beauty fell from her on all around, but him—she did not see him ii was clear she never would see him— one gentleman .was particularly assiduous she smiled on his assiduity! he was ugly, but she smiled oh hi nr. Doligna was surprised at his success, his ill,-taste, his ugliness, his impertinence. Dolignan at last found himself injured. "Who was this man? and what right had he to go on so? He had never kissed her, I suppose'" said' Dolly. Dolignan could not prove it, but he felt that somehow the rights of property were/ invaded. He went home and' dreamed of Miss Haythorn, and hated all the ugly successful. He spent a fortnight trying to find out who this beauty was—he never could encounter her. again. At last he heard of her in this way a la wyer'fr clerk paid him a little visit and commenced a little action against him, in the name of Miss Haythorn, for insulting her in a railway train.

The young gentleman was shocked endeavored to soften the lawyer's clerk: that machine did not thoroughly cotnpre hend the meaning of the term. The lady's name, however, was at'last revealed by this untoward incident from her name to her address was but a short step and the same day our crestfallen hero lay in wait at her door,-and many a succeeding dav, without {effect. But one fine afternoon she iSstied forth-qTtitB naturally. fTl^-day, and walked briskly on the nearest parade Dolignan did the same lie met and passed her many times on the -parade, and searched for pity in her eyes, but found neither look nor recognition, nor any other sentiment: for all this she walked and walked, till all the other promenaders were tired and gone—then her culprit summoned resolution, and taking off his hat, with a voice tremulous for the first time, besought permission to address her. She stopped, blushed, and neither acknowledged or disowned his acquaintance. He blushed, stammered out now ashamed he was, how he deserved to be punished, how he was punished, how little she knew how unhappy he was and concluded by begging her not to let all the world know the disgrace of a man who was already mortified enough by the loss of lief acquaintance. She asked an explanation he told her of the action that had been commenced in her name she gently shrugged her shoulders, and said, "How stupid they are!" Emboldened by this, he begged to know whether or not a life of distant unpretending devotion would, after a lapse of years, erase the memory of his madness—his crime.

She did not know!

He made acquaintance with her uncle, who liked him, and he saw at last, with jov, that her eye loved to dwell upon him, when she though he did riot observe her.

It was three months after the Hox Tunnel that Captain Dolignan called one day upon Haythorn, R. N., whom he had met twice in his life, and slightly propitiated bv violently listening to a cutting-out expedition lie called, and in the usual wayasked permission to pay his addresses to his daughter. The worthy straightway began doing quarter-deck, when suddenly he was summoned from the apartment by a mysterious message.

My reader has divined the triith this nautical commandpr, terrible to the foe, was in complete and happy subjugatioh to his daughter, onr heroine.

The attention, of Hardware Dealer, Car and Haute Builder* and otanert i* respectfully invited to the PATENT ST!TEE FAlLIN'fi SELF-LOCKISfl cWINDOW FAST."

This is decidedly the begt and meat important invention of modern times. Its simplicity and wonderful adaption both for HOUSE and CAR WINDOWS is perfectly astonishing accomplishing everything that can possibly be desired, and yet being cheaper than any other window fast. For house windows it dispenses with weights and pullys, operating equally well on top and bottom sash, allowing either to be raised or lowered as much or little as wished to secure ventilation, and yet be locked secwely at every point, from the intruder or burglar, and will never get out of order. It has the peculiar element of locking itself in whatever position yon leave it. For steam or horse car windows they are finished in a variety of styles, making an elegant finish to the ear windows, and the only arrangement ever introduced that can never fail.
