Southern Pets. While many families possess several pet children, few are so fortunate as not to Lave at least one. Generally, "our pet" has iuherited a constitutional infirmity, which renders it puny and peevish an infirmity which, while it doe3 not prevent the youngster from getting into mischief, exempts him from punishment. Every member of the family is expected to offer a ready excuse for all the pranks of which " pet" is guilty. Pet can't possibly, in the nature of things, do wrong. Is the sugar bowl tampered with, or the cream pitcher emptied of its contents ; do the cakes and tarts mysteriously disappear the older brothers and sisters are soundly scolded, notwithstanding their protestations of innocence, and imprecations unnumbered are vented upon the bead of guiltless pussy. Does the little rascal, in his migrations about the house, catch hold of the corner of tlin table cloth, and giving it a twitch, pile the. dishes on the floor a broken mass "Poor little fellow," says the mother, as she sorrowfully gathers up the fragments, " he didn't know it was any harm." Pet usually Hies into a raga if everything doa't move to suit him. He screams like a young hyeua.tosses his playthings about in the wildest confusion , scratches and bites kicks and squirms and the whole household are at their wit's ends to know what on earth to do to prevent the dear child from going into spasms. The ingenuity of a mother rarely fails her in such trying seasons, and a sugar plum or a nice bit of cake is administered with its usual soothing and quieting effects. At school " Pet " is fretful and quarrelsomo, breeds difficulties among his companions, and, as he is never known to bo in the wrong, not unfrenuently precipitates a quarrel between his parents and the teacher, because the latter chastised him when he didn't deserve il. Our government is the head of a family' that numbers not a few peU amongits members. From the discovery of the cotton gin which so largely increased the value of slave labor to the present year, the Slave States have been basking in the warm sunshine of government favor, and they have ruled the country pretty much after their own way. The favored children of the favored clime have held the most influential positions under the government, both at home and abroad. Out of twelve Presidents which have administered governmental affairs since the adoption'of the Constitution, seven came from the Slave States; and what is a little remarkable, while no President from the Free States has been permitted to hold the office two terms, no less than five of the seven Southern Presidents field their position two terms in succession. While Presidents from the Free States held office for twenty years, those from the Slave States held the position for forty-eight years. The Departments at Washington, the foreign embassies all have swarmed with patriots from the pet section. Even the Supreme Court had to be so constructed as to give the favored portion of Zion a majority of its members. Not content with filling most of the offices the vry vocabulary of the nation is ransacked to tind terms that will designate the chosen children of the Southern clime a3 superior to their plebian brothers of the North. "Chivalry" and "chivalrous," as applied to one, sound iu pleasing contrast with " mercenary " and " cowardly," as applied to the other. Ts it asked how such a state of things has been brought about ? Precisely a3 "our pet" gets control of the family household. If anything the Southern pets ask for is denied, they fly into a terrible rage, threaten 10 break things generally, and are only pacified by the other portions of the family submitting to their demands. Years ago, one of the most fractious of Uncle Sam's pt-.ts gave the old gentleman to understand that she didn't think any too much of him anyhow; that she intended to obey only such of his rules and regulations . for the government of his household as she chose; that if he didn't like it, he might help himself. Of course the family was in an up roar, but the child wa3 only pacified by changing the obnoxious, regulation to suit her. This was doue in order that the rumpus might be quieted before it occasioned talk among the neighbors. But, notwithstanding the precautions used, the neighbors have noticed the conduct of the spoilt children. The whole family, however, are prompt with an apology : " Poor things ! they are constitutionally diseased with slavery, and we have to humor them for fear they iay ily into such a passion as to go into spasms and destroy the peace of the family." A parent who has permitted his children to have their own way until they have arrived at years of maturity, can't expect to change their dispositions or habits, by an application of the birch. Having commanded when children they are not likely to obey when men. So, our government having permitted the Southern people to hold its principal positions of honor and trust for a' 1 .n term of years to both I make and administer the laws cannot ex- ! pect them at this late day, to become promptly obedient, however energetically it ' may apply the rod of correction. The North- ! ern people, too, are so accustomed to the i frantic and passionate conduct of their j Southern relations, that they are slow to j take any steps towards compelling them to obedience. Not a small number, we have no doubt, would prefer the old remedy of j sugar plums and cakes, if they felt assured j that any moderate quantity would pacify j the eoragea children and restore peace. Calmly and dispassionately the great North has witnessed the frantic and insate

========

actions of" the extreme South. The government has hitherto received the blows of its infuriated ruembers.with the calm sorrow that a parent would submit lo' a stroke from an enraged, misguided boy. But its forbearance may be exhausted. When it becomes conscious that reason among its Southern children, instead of being likely to return, has been permanently dethroned, it may feel the necessity of SO confining them as not only to prevent them from damaging others, but from destroying their own live3. Already in their madness they have inflicted wounds upon themselves that will take yeara to heal over, and if their madness becomes more formidable still, we doubt not, Mr. Lincoln, as head of the family, will call on other portions of it for assistance, and so restrain and confine the disobedient, as to render them harmless, if it fails to restore reason and bring about repentance. Washington Items From the Cincinnati papers ot Monday : I am informed by good authority, that Secretary Cha3e will make drafts upon all the defaulting Southern Collectors and subTreasurers for all the Federal monies in their possession, in the course of the next few days, and that immediately after their return, steps will be taken for the collection of duties by men-of-war:.' y .. .: H. R. Helper, the author of " Impending Crisis of the South," is an applicant for the consulship at Manchester, England.. Although Mr. Holloway of Indiana is appointed Commissioner of Patents, the office was first tendered in writing to Hon. Thos. C. Theaker of Ohio, but Secretary Smith insisted on the appointment of Mr. Holloway, and the President recanted. Mr. Theaker will be appointed one of the Board of Examiners provided for in the new Patent law, at a salary of $3,000 per annum. The confirmation of Col. Sumner for Brigadier General, vice General Twiggs, expelled from the service, was unanimous on the part of the Senate. D. P. Holloway of Indiana and John D. Defrees of the same State, were to-day duly nominated the first for Commissioner of Patents and the second lor Superintendent of Public Printing. - ' Hon.

Francis Adams, of Mass., Minister to England; Geo. P. Marsh, of Vermont, Minister to Sard inia; James Watson Webb, of New York, Minister to Turkey; Wm. L.Dayton, of New Jersey, Minister to France. The last named nomination was confirmed, the rule requiring it to be referred, having been suspended, as Mr. Dayton was formerly a member of the Senate, and his character sufficiently known without a formal investigation. This is the usual ; courtesy in such cases. The Senate also confirmed Benj. W. Bumbull receiver of public money at Omaha, K. T., and ex-Congressman Wm. A Howard, postmaster of Detroit. Wm. P.

We are indebted to Ephraim Brown, Esq., for the particulars of a fight, which occurred or Monday night of this week, at Bridget Creek, between Mrs. T. C. Higgins and about a dozen wolves. Early in the evening Mrs. Higgins heard an unusual noise at the calf-pen, and upon going out found that something like a dozen wolves were contemplating an attack upon the calf. Upon her approach they retreated a short distance, Mrs. H. is a good shot with a rifie, and shefirst determined to shoot at least one cf the intruders with her husband's loaded rifle ; upon reflection she concluded to put strychnine upon some meat she had in the house, and give it to her unwelcome visitors. She did so, and upon th return of her husband, who was absent the fore part of the evening, he found twelve wolves lying lead within a few rods of the house. Eau, Clair ( Wi.( Free Presx. "StS?"

THAT ELK.—Does the proprietor of the above named animal, know that there is serious complaint among the country people visiting town, and the citizens of the city, about that Elk. A span of mules attached to a wagon, took fright the other day at it, ran off, a lady and child were thrown from the wagon, breaking the child's leg, besides bruising both it and the mother. To-day my horse took fright at it, and but for some timely assistence [sic] rendered me, I might have had both leg and buggy broken. The enquiry is, which is entitled to the street, that Elk or A.

He feels confident that he will entertain all who will come out to hear him to-night. The lecture, bear in mind, is to be free—no admittance charged or collection taken up. ———<>——— A New Stove. We were called to look at an improved Cooking Stove yesterday, at the Pavilion Hotel. It is designated by the patentees, Messrs. Brown & Kent, as " the Southern hot air draught oven, and complete Cooking Stove." It is claimed to be superior to the ordinary cook stove in the saving of fuel and the perfection of its baking facilities. Mr. Diggina of St. Louis has one of the stoves put up in his room at the Pavilion Hotel, and invites any one who desires to examine his improvement to call and see how it operates. Don't fail to visit the $1 store. Cook & Lanqley have become celebrated for their enterprise in procuring all the luxuries of life so soon 83 they are to be had, and for keeping their establishment filled with an assortment of choice groceries. We noticed, yesterday, that they have just received some of the finest looking oranges and lemons ever brought to the city, and was not surprised to hear that they are going off like hot cakes. ———<>——— ——>The Savings Bank, No. 4 First street, <to-day> will take Illinois and Wisconsin money at 5 per cent discount, Missouri 4 per cent discount, Old Banks of Tennessee 3 per cent, discount.

P. Bvbke, W.BAKEB. Clerk. mar20 Mayor. AYER'S A compound remedy, designed to be tha most effectual Alterative that can be made. It is a con centrated extract of Para Sanutparilla, so combined with orher substances of still greater alterative power as to altora an enevlive antidote lor the diseases Sarsaparilla is repnted to cure. It is believed that such a remedy is wanted by those who suffer from btrumons complaints, and that one which will accomplish their cure must prove of immense ser vice to this large portion of our afliicted fellow citi zeus. How completely this compound will do it has been proven by experiment on many of the worst cases to be found ot tne xollowing com' plaints : Scrofula and Scbofulocs plaints," buptions and Eruptive Diseases, Ulcers, Pimples, Blotches, Tin orb. Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Syphilis and Syphilitic Affections, Mebcirial P'Sf.ase, Dropsy, Neubaloia ok Tio Doloubei'X, IIehilitt, Dyspepsia and iNniOEfTiow, Ebyipkias, Bose ob St. Anthony's Fib., ar.d indeed the whole clues of coniplainti arising from Impubiti or the E-ood. This componnd will bo found a great promoter of health, when taken in tnesprinir, to expel the tout humors which ster iu the blood at that season of the yoar. By the timely expulsion of them many rankling disorders are nippod in the bnu. Diultl tildes can, by the aid of this remedy, spars them selves from theeadurance of foul eruptions and ul cerous soros, through which the system wi'l try to rid itself of corruptions, if not assisted to do this through the natural channels of the body by an alterative medicine. Cleanse out the vitiated blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through the skin in pimples, emotions, or sores : cleanse it when yen find it is obstructed and sluggish in the veins ; cleanse it whenever it is tonl, and your reel ings will tell you when. Even where no particular disorder u felt, people enjoy better health, and live loneer, for demising the blood. Keep the blood healthy and all is well ; but with this pabulum of life disordered there can be no lasting health. Sooner or later something must go wrong, and the great machinery of lite is disordered or overthrown. Sarsaparilla has, and deserves much, tne reputa tion of accomplishing these ends. But the world has been egregiously deceived by preparations of it. partly because the drug alone has not all ths virtue that is claimed for it. but more because manv Tireuarations, pretending to be concentrated extracts of it, contain, but little ot tne virtue ot sarsaparilla, or anv tiling else. During late yeirs the public has been misled by large bottles, pietcnding to give a quart of Extract of Sarsaparilla for one dollar. Mosttf these have been frauds upon tho sick, fir they not ouly con tain little, if any, barsaparilla, but often no cura tive properties whatever. Hence, bitter and pain fill disappointment has f liowed the use of the va rious extracts ot Sarsaparilla which nood the market, until the name itself is justly despised, and has become svnonymons with imposition aud rlieat Still we call this compuud Sarsaparilla, and intend to supply Burh a remedy as shall rescue the name from the load of obloquv winch rests upon it. And we think we have ground for believing it has virtues which are irresistible by the ordinary run of the diseases it ' intended to cure. In order to secure their complete eradication from the system, the remedv should be judiciously takan according to directions on the bottle. PREPARED BY Dr. J. C.
