Hon. Arthur Bingham, late State Treasurer of Alabama, has bought the Montgomery Journal, and will take entire management of the paper, which is the leading Republican journal of the State.

Ex-G v. Chamberlain has declined the Presidency of the Maine State College of Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts, and has under consideration an offer to take charge of a literary institution in the West at a salary of §5,000.

There were twenty-three battles during the late Franco-German war besides there were forty-nine engagements and combats, which had almost the proportions of battles. There were twenty sieges, comprising the three immense strongholds of Strausburg, Metz and Paris.

Gen. Beauregard's only son has gone to the West, and the Mobile Register compliments him highly for it, saying that iie realizes that there are no longer such opportunities for getting along in New Orleans, his native city, as there formerly were, and that he proposes to establish himself in Kansas City, Mo., and, unaided make, his own way in the World.

A traveler was relating that he saw, in the course of his travels in Japan, a church a thousand feet long. A friend checked liim as he was going on, and the traveler added, "and two feet broad." Everybody laughed at this absurdity, when the story-teller flew into a a passion, aud exclaimed: "It's my friend's fault if hadn't been for him, I'd have the ehureh square.

An inveterate

On one occasion, shortly after he had "broken off for good," he was seen taking anotherchew. "Why," said his friend, "you told me you had given up that habit but I see you are at it again.

"Let not the Democracy lay the flattering uuctiou to their souls that they are to encounter Grant in 1872.

COPYRIGHT.—The act of Congress has provided that all the old records of copy-

in the office of the Librariau of Congress and also that all applications for copyrights must be rqade to that officer. Hardly a day passes, we are told, but some one sends papers for copyright to the Clerk of the United States District Court. Would it not be well for the State press generally to call attention to the law as it is

FAILED.—S. M. Bartons, who formerly owned a distillery at Hazleton, Gibson county, on the E. &. C. lliilroad, has failed. Last Monday, the Government officials took possession of the distillery, as we learn, because of non-payment of Government tax. The officials gave him until Wednesday of this week, to meet his liabilities to Uncle Sam. When the days of grace had expired the officials took final possession of the distillery and its appurtenances.

CHURCH SOCIAL SUPPER.—There will be a church social supper at Asbury Church Tuesday evening of next week. It is being gotten up by the young ladies of that church, who know just how to get up something to eat and we will assure them that there will be any number present who know how to get down something good to eat. The collation will be spread in the basement of the church. After the supper, the young ladies will clear away the remains and give the old ladies a chance to llirt, thus endeavor to reverse the order of such entertainments. A capital idea.

THE TIGER.—Thelocal tiger is a sneaking animal, he generally selects for his lair some back room or garret, where the light of day seldom enters. There he lies in wait for his victims. Unlike the wild animal, however, he does not crush their bones and tear their flesh, but sucks aud saps the foundation of their moral sensibilities, and destroys their self-re-spect and manhood. The domestic tiger, like the wild animal, is an epicure he loves the young and tender in years, for his victims they more readily fall into his wiles and snares, and can be held longer in his power.

AN ELEGA&Y'^TOCIT.—L. Giodman, No. 6 Main street, has just returned from New York with one of the finest stocks of ready-made clothing, merchant tailoring and gents' furnishing goods that has ever been brought to this city, which he is rapidly disposing of at bargain prices. Mr. G. has recently cansolidated his own establishment with that of L. Goodman & Co. and is now going to run an establishment of the first magnitude, and will be pleased to see his numerous friends and acquaintances, as would Mr. Simon Herschler, who is still with him and who is so well aud favorable known by nearly all of our citizens.

GEORGE FRANCIS TRAIN.—Don't let our citizens forget that George Francis Train, that man of all others who dares to speak his sentiments despite jails and armed men, will be at Dowling Hall tomorrow evening, and will tell us just what he thinks, despite the terrors of the Vigo bastile, which would terrify any other man thau that stranger to terror George

Francis Train. During the course

of his remarks to-morrow night, he will tell us about how he was incarcerated in a Chicago jail for not paying a bill for which he was not liable. His remarks will be interesting to all. Who is there in this broad Republic that has not heard of this luminous "genius and who do^s not wish to see him?

A NEW CATECHISM.—Whom did Adam marry, aud when did he marry her? One Eve.

What was her bridal dress? Barely nothing. Not even a ribbon? No she had no need of one, she was a rib b.nie herself.

When Adam and Eve were in the gardening business what timedid they commence picking apples In the fall.

Why did not Cain make good sugar? Because lie wasn't Ab^l. Spirit as well as sugar comes from cane what evil resulted from Cain's spirit? Abel got slewed.

What reason have we to suppose that Cain also got slewed? He went immediately to the land of Nod.

W7lio was the wisest man? Knower. What did he know? He knew enough to go in out of the wet.

FOR the benefit of those who keep late hours by going to balls we clip the following from the Herald qf Health

The cry for rest has always been louder than the cry for food. Not that it is more important, but it is often harder to get. The best rest comes from a 9ound sloep. Of two men or women, otherwise equal, the one who sleeps the best will be the most moral, healthy and efficient. Sleep will do much to cure irritability of temper, peevishness, uneasiness, It will restore to vigor an overworked, brain. It wilt build up and make strong a weary body. It will relieve the languor and prostration felt by consumptives. It will cure hypochondria. It will cure the headache. It will cure the heartache. It will cure neuralgia. It will cure a broken spirit. It will cure sorrow. Indeed, we might make along list ot nervous maladies that it will cure. The cure of sleeplessness requires a clean, good bed, sufficient exercise toproduce weariness, pleasant occupation, good air and not toowarmaroom, freedom from too much care, a clean stomach, a clear conscience and avoidance of stimulants and narcotics. For those who are overworked, haggard, nervous, who pass sleepless nights, we commend the adoption of such habits as shall secure sleep otherwise life will be short, and what there is of it sadly imperfect.

Military Commander of Pari*, has issued an order positively forbidding all processions and masquerades to-morrow.

Another Radical journal has been seized by the police. The Orleans Railroad will be redelivered by the Germans into the hands of the French.

The Rouen Independent, for advising the people to display emblems of mourning during the recent review of German troops in that city, has been suppressed, and its proprietors subjected to a fine of one thousand francs.

LONDON, March 1G.—The Journal des Debates, commenting on the result of the conference on the Eastern question, makes a bitter attack on England. It declares that she had lost every advantage gained by the Crimean war. France is now helpless and her sword broken, but when it is unsheathed again, its aim will not be so distant as Turkey.

Paris journals speak of England in a similar spirit. The Count of Paris renounces any intention on his part to compete with other Princes of the royal house of France for the throne.

SAMANA BAY, February 23.—The United States steamer Nautask?t has arrived here from S into Domingo city, bringing news five days later than that brought by the Tybee on the 13th.

Commissioner Audrew D. White left Santo Domingo city on an overland trip to Puerto Plato. At the latter place he will be taken on board the Nautasket and proceed to Port au Prince, the capitol of Hayti, where, by previous arrangement, he will have an interview with General Jose Cabral, former President of Domiuica, and now leader of the forces opposed to Baez. White is accompanied by Samuel H. Hazard,,-.Jr., of Philadelphia, aud Black well, of N^ark, New Jersey.

Much excitement has been caused in Santo Domingo city by the official announcement that the inhabitants of Bani and San Christoval had pulled down the Dominican colors aud raised the American flag.

Commissioner Samuel G. Howe has gone to Bani to investigate the matter. A revolutionary force, composed of adherents of ex-President Salnave, were about marching against Hayti with the object of overthrowing Sagat, the President, and placiug Leconte at the head of the Government. Leconte, accompanied by Major C. G. Megrue, of Cincinnati, had visited the command.

We expect now, uuless delayed by the Nantasket, to reach home by the 28th of March, or at farthest the 1st of April. A delay of one week, from this cause, is possible, and if the ship is not heard from for two weeks, it should not cause anxiety. The mail from the Commissioners leaves for New York to-day, the 7th, by the steamer Port au Prince.

Wade is preparing a short preliminary report, which he hopes to get off on the steamer this evening. He has also sent a short letter to the President.

Howe has arranged for a pretty thorough exploration of this section of Hayti, but Wade insisted there was no authority for it, and it should not be done.

The second day after our arrival here, Messrs. Wade aud Howe called, by previous agreement, upon the President and his Cabinet. The meeting had no reference to the annexation. All the Cabinet were present.

They w'iil wait here for Commissioner White, who went overland from San Domingo to Puerto Plato. He is expected in the steamer Nautasket by the 10th, bringing with him the two scientific expeditious, under Professors Blake aud Ward, that crossed before him.

The Tennessee will then start immediately for home, touching at Santiago de Cuba and Key West for coal.

The questions of debt and disputed boundary are the most important raised since last dispatches. The Haytiens are utterly opposed to annexation. The Commissioners, however, were received
