the

municipal elections in Coving

ton, Fountain county, on Tuesday, the Republicans made handsome gains. The town has hitherto been ten to one in favor of the Democrat®. Now the Republicans elect the Marshal bjr twenty-four majority, one of the five Coumcilmen, and one other of doubtful politics and lose the Clerk by only four votes.

At Shelbyville,

nese labor, made by Mr. Sampson of North Adams, after about a year's trial, has turned out satisfactory in all respects The Chinamen make good shoemakers, and the manufactory turns out woik as rapidly and of as good quality as before the strike. So well pleased is Mr. Sampson with the labor of the Chinamen, their close attention to business, and quickness to learn, that he is now arranging to biing from Sari Francisco another supply Of these laborers.

on Tuesday, every

Republican candidate was elected by majorities ranging from forty-two to two hundred. Allen, Republican, is elected Mayor over Robertson, Democrat, by one hundred and ninety-seven majority—a Republican gain of ono hundred and ninety-three over our majority ttTo years ago. j«

At Connebsville,

on Tuesday, the

Republicans elected their entire city ticket on a square political issue. Every Ward is Republican by a handsome majority, and we have elected a Republican Mayor by eightyeight majority. Last May the Democrats elected a Mayor by ninety-four majority, giving a Republican gain in the neighborhood of one hundred.

The case does not appear to have occupied the attention of the jury longer than if it had been a simple matter of petty larceny, and a man who was certainly a homicide and may have been a murderer, and whose offense was considered of sufficient enormity to justify the denial to him of liberty on bail by the committing magistrate, was discharged, as if the matter were not of importance enough to deserve a formal in at on 1

very grave over affairs in Algeria, and all of them disposed to fear the worst, towit: the unseating of the present Government, and the complete throwing off of the allegiance. At the outbreak of the insurrection there the Governor deemed a foiceof ten thousand amply sufficient to restore order, but his ideas have swelled with the increase of rebellious turbans, and fifty thousand is now the call. Where these fifty thousand are to come from, when every effort of the Versailles Government is unable to quell the Paris disturbances, is a matter of grave question. In the meantime, from Morocco to Tunis, the Arabs are rising like the sand storms of their own deserts, knowing well that the old war-dogs of Armand are no longer guarding them. The troubles of poor France come thick and fast, and ruin, both at home and abroad, seems her inevitable portion.

TJie excruciating fun of this mirthprovoicing cognomen haa no doubt reached even the ears of the ex-Impcrial recluse of Chiselhurst, who would no doubt like to be laughed at on the same terms that his Imperial brother of Berlin affords sport for the facetious Londoners. He may also ponder on the peculiar tastes of the English people, who, like spoiled chil-^ dren, "make faces" at the stronger person who incurs either their envy or displeasure.

cot jsm for A

inclines to the opin-

inn that it will be a great many years before Idaho is ready for the millenium, despite its soft-sounding name. The latest political dodge there puts the East quite in the shade, and we earnestly commend it to our importunate place seekers. A certain lawyer took umbrage at a certain judge, and thereupon took the slight liberty of writing his Honor's resignation, signing his Honor's name, and forwarding it to the President. Its langnage "had not that repose" which stamps the caste of 'Vere de Vere,' and the judge's successor \vas immediately appointed, to the intense astonishment'of the former cumbent. There was war in Idaho, and finally in Washington, where both parties now await the return of the President, while the lawyer chuckles at home.'5

Literature as a Profession. Silting in the pleasant spring days in the Century Club, in Clinton. Place, Thackeray used to say, as he wrote more than once, that literature had now become a distinct profession that it had its few great prizes, like other professions and that whoever entered it onght to expect to work diligently and faithfully as he would in any other calling. This is a doctrine very different from that of those who hold that a literary man is to write "when he feels the inspiration," and that there can be no real literature in a conntry and at a time when authors, instead of meditating and elaborating great books, are content to write regularly for magazines or newspapers. The disciples of this school are inclined to sighsometimes over the decay of authors in the country, as Charles Lamb mourned the decay of beggars in the metropolis. But it is because they do not see the facts correctly. Literature lias, indeed, become more of a distinctly recognized profession, as Thackeray said, and the forms of publication have somewhat changed, but tne changes do not substantially, affect the value of the literary product

Those who hold that an author should write, as they say, only when he feels the inspiration, forget that genius and talent are perpetual powers that they are symbolized not by a mountain stream,, which is now swollen by showers to a torrent,and is then dry, but by a perpetual spring. Thomas Hood is the familiar modern example of the'author grcund todeath in the terrible mill of regular work. But we have Thackeray's own word for it that Hood made an agreeable living without excessive labor, and if there were a friction which wore away his life it Was the result of ambition, temperainent, and carelessness. His regular industry certainly did not blight exquisite results. His memorable poems—the "Song of the Shirt," the "Bridge of Sighs"—were not injured by his work upon the "Comic Annualand if he had had an income pf ten'thousand pounds a year, he would hardly have written afresh "Song of the Shirt" iqateadof a joke every time that he took up his pen.

finds a species of moral gymnastics, not devoid of pleasure, in watching the theological wanderings of the Rev. Henry Ward B. On Sunday before last he endorsed the Darwinian theory, from inverted dorsal appendage to useless brain rudiments, and last Sunday was wonderfully warm in scouting the theory of the resurrection of the body, maintaining his point both in sermon and prayer. Upon the precise manner, however, in which the soul should reach Heaven, he "regretted his ignorance." It is kind of Henry to keep the Lord informed of what he does know, but a little modest to be ignorant of the "precise method." Has he not the correspondents' column of the

An Artistic Revenge.

The following anecdote is told-of M. Wiertz, the celebrated-German painter, who was sometimes called the crazy artist: After having finished a portrait of the old aristocratic Countess de who pretended fo be only thirty when nearly sixty, she refused to accept the painting, saying that it did not look anything like herself, and that her most intimate friends would not recognize a single feature of her on that piece of canvas. Wiertz smiled kindly at the remark, and as a true knight of old gallantly reconducted the lady to her carnage. Next morning there was a grand disturbance in the Rue de la Madeline. A big crowd was gathered before a window and the following words were whispered from ear to ear "Is the Countess de really in jail for her debts?" Wiertz had exercised a little vengeance towards his noble but unfair customer. As*' soon as She had refused the portrait, he set to work and painted a few iron bars on the picture, with these words, "In jail for debt." He exhibited the painting in a jeweller's window, in the principal street of Brussels, swd the effect was instantaneous. A few hours later the Cuntess "was back in Wiertz's studio, pouring invectives on him at high pressure,—to have exhibited her likeness under such scandalous, &c., &c. "Most noble lady," was the artist's reply, "you said the painting did not lookanything like yourself, arm that your most intimate friends would not have recognized a sin-

fle

one of your features in the picture, waqted simpJy^ttf test the truth.of your statement—that is all!" The portrait was taken away, the city laughed, the artist charged double price, ana gave the amount to the poor of the city.

What

would follow upon the execu

tion of the parliamentary threat that the words of an honorable member Should be "taken down," or that he Bhould' be "named," has long been a mystery to Englishmen 4s well as others.: A ciirii oub extract from the news columhsofIhe Exeter

Gazette

of the 8th pf March 1810,

enables us to describe what did folio# upon an occasion when both those direful threats were fulfilled. On the' 6th of March, 1810, the House of Commons sat in Committee to hear evidence in the inquiry into the Walcheren Expedition: The Earl of Chatham^was under examination, and one -o£ the? members of the House, Mr. Fuller conceived that several questions he had put badnot met with that attention which their importance justified. Accordingly when the Earl of Chatham withdrew, Mr. Fuller, rose, grid complained of the slight put upon hiiu, adding with an oath 'fl nave as much right to be heard

:as

It i&. a hard fate, yoti say, that a poet should be forced to coin his brain into guineas or dollars, to write not what he would, bat what-he can sell. He must make himself a motley to the view. Instead Of writing his "Paradise Lost," he must string quaint and jipgling rhymes which will tickle the ear ot the ordinary reader of the- paper or magazine. But is it, or can it be, wholly a matter of choice? Milton like the rest of us, must live. He will probably also love, and there must be Dread and butter for the family. Now, if he abandons the field, and resolves that as-tbere is no-*market for epics, he will fall to making shoes for which there is a' tnarket. he will yet as certainly write his epic as the bookkeeper in the India House wrote the "Essays of Elia." Shoemaking will riot silence- Milton. There is no mute Milton. But because he has genius, and is penniless, and wishes to be married, and to have a comfortable horned-must he .starve Shall he Btarve? Shall Jie, say that he will hot harness Pegasus 'to &" dust-cart, nor. plow a potato field with his horses of the 8un?«or shall he say that, his genius is to be a genius that is to serve his love and his life that it is a power which he will turn to noble and humane uses?

any. m^n who has

paid for, filling the place he holds." The Chancellor of the Exchequer- (Spen cer Perceval, afterwards premier) moved "That the words of the honorable member should be taken down." The Committee assenting, the words were taken down, and when the House resumed,'. Sir John. Anstruther, chairman of the com-

mittee, -reported the expression. The Speaker then "informed the House", that it had "come to his knowledge", that a member had used unparliamentary,languag$, which was a breach of the privileges of the honorable House. He felt deeply grieved, but it would become his duty to name him. Here the irrepressible Mr. Fuller cime "to" fiis assfstarfce of the Speaker by shouting but, "Oh! you need not,be diffident! It's me, Jack Fuller." This did not tend to lessen the gravity of Mr. Fuller^ position, and the Speaker sternly, ordered him to withdraw. He declined, and it was only at the earnest solicitations of his friends that he eventually consented to leave the Ifouse. The Chancellor of the Exchequer then ttio^ed that Mr. Fuller he taken into Custody by the Sergeant-at-Arms. The Hojlse cordially agreed with the motion, 'arid the Sergeant-at-Arms vyks fully instructed to take the honorable member into his custody. But ttfe'TIbtise, as it presently discovered, had reckoned without the honorable member. 'Mr. Fuller was found ih the lobby, and Upon the Ser-gea(nt-at-Arms communicating to him the nature of his delicate mission, he rushed past him into the House, and,' interrupting the proceedings, declared in aloud voice that the Speaker had no right Or authority toeirder him into custody. Who was the Speaker And what was the Speaker? Why, he was the servant of the members, and by their habit of sab' mission to hiin they had made him their master. In order that there should be no mistake as fo wlom he referred to, Mr. Fuller, who appears to have been a gentleman of characteristically frank speech, added that hie meant "the insignificant little fellow, in the wig over there." This is the last of the observations offered by Mr. Fuller upon this interesting occasion that have come to us. A free fight between the honorable member and the Sergeant-at-Arms, who had the assistance of four messengers, followed, and eventually Mr. Fuller was carried out of the House. "'Tia sixty years ago but we feel sure that.no member of the present House of Commons can read without shudder that the Right Honorable the Speaker was once publicly referred to in the House as "the insignificant little fellow in the wig." .il i— ifoafa
