This sneaks weH for our people It shows that they are an unusually quiet, peaceable and in iff n.ivn race, attending to their own business, and nit indulging in the pastimes common to other localities, such as fighting, getting drunk, suing and being sued, seeking for divorces, contesting elections, etc , et v Tn's is greatly to our credit, showing, as it ci. tniuly docs, that wo are exempt from the too common weaknesses that nfdict man

The two gentlemen who appear as our attorneys-at-law are Marshall A Moore an 1 Mai Jonathan Ilirch. In their isolated condition they must feel somewhat lonely, but being so fortunate ns to possess jovial dispositions an 1 industrious habits, they manage to kill time very satisfactorily to themselves end their clients.

seven per cent

The Jewish residents are busy with measures for the relief of the refugees from Rnumania. Large numbers are expected here in the next few months, and arrangements are being mado for their employment. The managers of the affair say they are promised railway tickets for these refugees at greatly reduced rates. The apparent impossibility of punishing any murderer by legal process in New York is a text treated in till journals, and a peremptory demand is made for reform. Tho Fust says: "We are not sure that a few doses of lamp-post justice, administered by indignant dtizi ns, would not have had a goo t rtl ct dut iog the decade through which we have just passed." Even the Tribune goes in for hemp, remarking: “While bunging is a penalty for murder, murderers should be hong. When blood is not uyenged at all wo are very near social disorganization.” Of nearly thirty murderers now in the Tombs, some have been locked up for n arly two years. Many witnesses have been bribed tn leave the city. The slipshod method of prosecution was exemplified Inst week in the trial of the Fren .'linian Audrin, for killing his alleged unfaithful wife. The prosecutor asked for an adj nirnment, because a certain woman hail left the city, and there appears to he a difficulty in finding any hotly else that knows the person killed was Mrs. Andrie. fwo ot the most hardened assassins in the Tombs, Foster and Murphy, were sentenced to dvulli, but have beeti granted new trials. In tbe cases of Stokes and LT>ggi, the alleged poisoner, the juries disagreed. Tbe others have not been tried, hut relying on the insanity dodge, ore ready for the

Minna llcrzlieb, the original of Oitilie, lie had a profound passion for, in spite of the disparity of their years. Tho sonnets lie addressed to her, and his warm painting of her representative character in the VVahlvcrwandtschaf ten,” prove the fervor if not the depth of his feeling. Surely no man has been bettor qualified by his intimate sell knowledge and varied experience to write such a book, in which Eduard and the Captain merely illustrate the quality of his own nature. Falling in love became by long indulgence u fixed habit with the great Gerraiiri, and we see him in his seventy-fourth year glowing and throbbing over Fraulein von Lawoiow, whoso grandfather lie might have been. He was happily constituted for a lover, since he enjoyed tho pleasures of love, and very few, if any, of its pain*, llis heart was as elastic us hie temperament, and when it was breaking—its chronic condition almost—he mended it (until the next time) writing a poem from his griefs. Like so many of his sex, he loved women rather than woman ; was loyal to
love, but inconstant to lovers.
