In a recent letter (torn Passed Midshipman I. Yotrao, to some of his friends in this place, bearing date of Jan. 8, 18fit, he speaks of the late revolution in South America, between the Liberal and Aristocratic parlies. Talcuhuano, and Valparaiso, being tho tiro contending cities. Two Ladies, residing in the latter place, descendants of the great Cortez, look an activo pert in favor of the Liberal party. These Ladies were both rich Mid talented, and from their own resources supplied this party with several thousand dollars to prosecute the war and by the aid of a Printing press, which
had in their own house, they were enabled to strike off and distribute placsrds over the city.— The Aristocratic party being in poipr Ordered their arrest. They hearing of this, sought protection from the French frigate Penelope, one of the ladies having married a Frenchman. The French refused to give them the protection, which they asked for. They then applied to the Americans, and were kindly received on board of the frigate Baii tan, whore they remained until within a day or two of the close of the revolution. Before leaving the Americans, they wrote the following complimentary note, whioh is taken from the Valparaiso Merourian of December 10th 1861, with the remarks which accompanied it:
We insert with pleases, the following tribute of gratitude, from the Ladies of the Cortes family to the Americans. We have indeed taken the lib* orty of omitting some sentences, in which the fair proscribed on«s have given full expression to their resentment. Whilst the^lfercury considers it a duty, at this time, to inculcate clemency and generosity, we cannot give pl^ce in its columns to fadings less worthy: "The Ladies Cortes to the Americans."

The Paris correspondent for the ''Republic" Is a careful and diligent purveyor of the press, and as far as we can judge from his seeming candor, he does not sutler his own opinion to give color to any of the incident) or facts, he relates. His list letter was very long and lull of interest^ jHe raises the curtain of European politics, and discloses estate of thing*, whioh we did not suppose to exist. The friends of freedom everywhere upon the oondnant, have either been driven into exile, or cowed into abject submission and the iron despotism, tramples ia the dust, with remorseless feeling, the honest and simple hearted people. Kossuth's mission it is prndicted, is over, so far as Europe is concerned and the torrent of eloquence, he is pouring out in our country, to the admiration of the immense crowd* that assemble to hear him, only excites ridicule there, lie thunders but in vain, so long its the despots am on their guard and can prevent bis stirring appeals from reaching the people. Louis Napoleon is deified and impiously compared by the French jto our Savior, A picture has been hawked aboOt Paris, representing htm with the Ho* ly Ghost, above bis head, the Father on his right, and the Son his left, all pointing to htm with a smile of approbation and aeboir of angela at bit feet chanting his praise.

•'Before leaving these shores, upon which we are forbidden to land, we deem it a sacred duly at parting to express our gratitude to the noble American people, who through their representatives on btonrU of the Rnrltan, have given us generous hospitality and protection. May their lives serve as a protest against any malignant rivalry, which will over impeucli the virtues of this great and free people. Let them be an evidence to the world, that there still exists hearts, for whioh gratitude l» a sweet bond, and not a humiliation or ohain.

The joint resolution, re-affirming the policy Of non-intervention, hail been under consideration ftr the Senate, and given rise to a very interesting de bate. Gov. Cass explained himself clearly and Ail ly upon the sobject, and bis views can no longer be misapprehended or misrepresented. Whilst he was opposed to Ihe use of,menaces towards other nations, and interference with their national affairs he was in favor of the expression of a frank and decided opinion upon infractions of national laws It becomes as, he thought, to prove our fealty as well as profess it, to the great code of public mor ality. The Governor discussed tbe question with his usual ability, and was very instructive and elo quent. Mr. Clemens followed in the debate, in vigorous speech against intervention. He renewed his assault against Kossuth, and dealtHipon him some heavy blows! "'Kossuth has somewhat impair ed his influence, by issuing certificates of loans which no one believes will ever be redeemed.— Democrats will not oountenance thin plattert, em anating from any source whatever. What they may feel disposed to contribute to the cause of Hunga ry, they will freely and cheerfully give? ^They want no irredeemable "promises to pay,'** in return. srws

The latest accounts from England represent, that great apprehension is entertained that Louis Napoleon designs making an invasion upon that country; and that the government has consequently ordered twenty-five thousand troops into London, and recalled the three principal ships of war stationed at the Tagus. This certainly looks a little warlike and you must not be surprised, if, before many months pass away, you hear that France and England are measuring swords.
The recent insult offered to Chevstier Hulse mann, the Austrian minister, by a mob of Germans and other foreigners, in Mobile, on his arrival in that town, en route for Havanna, bat excited great indignation, as it will subject the country to the mortification of disavowing and making an apolo gy for the act. Foreign ministers are under the protection of the Government and consequently the Government is responsible for any Indignity that may be offered them.

BACKING OPT or A POSITION.—A somewhat ecoentrio lawyer, being engaged in defending a hard case, and not being altogether pleased with the rulings of tho president judge remarked that he believed the whole court oould be boughfWith a peck of beams.
The Judge of course took this remark in high dudgeon, and ordered the lawyer to sit down, and demanded of him an opology for this contempt oi Court, threatning him with commitment for the offence, if be did not apologize.
The lawyer after a little reflection, remarked thst he had said, he believed, that tbe oourt oould be bought for a peck of beans: that he bad said it without reflection, aud wished t* take it back, but said be 'If 1 had put at it a half^bushel 1 never wowld have taken it back in tbe world.'—Springfield Republican.^

All his opinions are supposed to take their color from the prospects they seem to indicate of becoming popular not that he really values the good opinion of the people, but becsunse be can by no other means reach the goal to which bis "high vaulting ambition" aspires. Be #ants to be the candidate of the wbigs, four years hence, for the Presidency and st there area number of gentlemen who stand much higher in the favor of the party, and would be preferred to him, he thinks his only ohsnce of getting ahead of theoi is to tske advantage of some sadden outburst of popular enthusiasm and hence, he is constantly striving to identify himself with every question that is started whioh promises to attract attention, and receive the approbation and support of the people.

FKMAUK GOLD Dweaas.—(The California goeaip describes "two American ladies and a gentleman," as follows:—] ,* "While the gent picks and sbovekf one of the ladies—whose costume a silk dress covered with a man's coat, as near, we suppose as she can imitate the Bltemtr in the mines—carries the dirt to the rocker, where the other lady sits working with all the assiduity of an old miner. We wish California were well supplied with such tadios as these, who, instead of barrassing their husbands about 'Woman's rights' and 'Turkish costumes,' JfOtttd work hard as well sis rock the cradle.

LAWTSIIU
A worteaet than half dosenyoutm dismples of Coke and Bladcsume, for a victim to fall into, cannot be found in the sublunary sphere and I defy any one to deny this statement, and produce evi dence fo tbe contrary. But sometimes, though not often the case, it will happen diet, oven 'lawyers instead of catching a victim, lay hands on a tartar and are aware of that startling fact, only arheu they find themselves "sucked in.**
Court was setting in the shire town of in the pine tree Slate, some few years since., and host of "limbs of the law** from the surrounding neighborhood here did congregate.
One bitter cold night, some half dozen of the1!1 having obtained full and complete possession of tbe bar-room of the village tavern, detenmined otir having a time as is a time* Gin slings, hot todies, etc., etc. were in abundance, and right merrily those worthies did partake. Without it was blustering cOld within, a blazing fire, and a spirit to keep the inards** warm was plenty.
Why, then, could they not be cheerful, and in spirits for, recollect reader, this was before die great temperance movement came up.
The night was going on apace, and stHTwitli all their cheerfulness, there seemed to be certain something wanting. Cards were voted (ores, end dice and checkers were voted in the same category *Oh, that we had some mercy,' exclaimed Clark as he tbre# a pack of cards into the fife, and stretching bis legs, giving, as he did so, a prolongation to the word oh I
Scarcely had he given vent to the expression, ere tbe sound of horses feet iand the raiding of a wagon were heard upon tbe frozen ground, rapidly approaching. In a moment, a stout-built, good natured looking person—one of the class known as Yankee pedlers, entered, and desired his beast might be taken care of. He followed the hostler to tbe stable to see that job performed.
In luck,* exclaimed Clark, as the Yankee left •Just the thing I was looking for. We'll have rare spbrt now, or 111 never make another plea,'
regular green one he looks like, don*t he Brown?' exclaimed Smith .and Jones, Colt and White declared themselves ready for the* sport •But how shall we work him!' asked Clark. 'Leave that (hicj to me,* Smith replied. 'I'll drink him drunk (hie)-—I'm the most sober of any one in the room and then we'll fix him, and leave him to gather (hie) his scattered sense**' ^'Smith, you're a trump!' was exclaimed.^ *Go ahead, we're with you.' »^Mr. Pedler,' said the hostler to the Yankee as they had concluded their business, and were aliout entering the bar-roont, 'them ere lawyer chaps have been looking all evening for some one to make sport with, so you'd better keep your eyes open. 'Keep dark, then, my dear fellow, andlet .them work,' aaid the Yankee as they entered.
Probably a more innocent, and I may add green, looking personage than the Yankee pedler, when he entered the room and reaohed out bis hands to the fire, could hardly b« found. 'Tia dreadful cold out,' said Smith, 'and you'd better take something to warm you up,* and he handed an overflowing glass of hot toddy to the Yankee. -sttJist as much obliged to you as though I took It,' said the Yankee. *But you see jist afore I left hum, Parson Smith got me to put my nama to a piece of paper saying, *1 abstain from all intoxicating drinks, and wine and cider,.' ftndi bpsjdfilj, never drink anvthinor oftan.'1 get
never drink anything Often. So much the better, all Whispered, we can him drunk the easier.
It required not a great deal of persuasion to get otte glass into the Yankee for Smith assured him that he Was a namesake of the Parson's and tbe pledge only meant for him while at home.
One glass went snd another followed, fhO Ia^rirl partaking, the while. The first glass made the Yankee chatty, ihe next two foolish, and the next two did the business, and declared him aa drunk as a fool. By dint Of hard labor, with tlie assistance of the hostler, they msnaged to get him up stairs and into bed. His clothes were taken o!f and placed so as to be easily .accessible to, and then the lawyers extinguished the light and reUred. 'sife
All this time the Yankee had been laying with his eyes half open, wstchlng the manoeuvers of the catd. He had, of eours% feigned the drunkenness, fo? ba was one of those who did lova a giant sionally, and bis equal at.drinking was not to be found every day.
As the lawyers retired, he leaped from the bad, and amid their ntoanings and hiccups, which prevented the possibility of their bearing the least noise, he secured his own clothing, even down to boots, aod selecting a single article from the clothes of each of the rest, distributed them around where hi* own had been^This done, be retired, and by snoring, soon satisfied the lawyers that be was fast in the arms of the sleepy god, Morpheus.
A short time elapsed, and the sprigs of the law catted the name tbe Yakee. He answered not and they felt assured be was too drunk sad sleepy
A moment after, and Smith came forth, fie would not be so bard on the Yankee, so ba only severed one leg from his pants, and opening the window, threw ii out.

[We have seen enough of life an tbe "rural dlstriots" to believe the following story pottibht. If our readers can not share in our.credulity, they may givs the credit of its invention to 0le Boston Post:—] "A few evenings since, the-passenger" train on the railroad, arrived at a small village, and, stop.

But John was in a hurry, and the minister, thinking he could make a short oase of it, consented to tarTyt but the bridegroom was not quite ready. His trunk was out on the platform, *and' stfid he, addressing the minister—

Purely such a request could not be denied. The lsdy was dressed and her toilerduly made as she was about to decend, she bethought herself that John's wedding 'rig' was in her trunk, and she wOuld thank the young ladv if she would take it into J6hn*s room, and call htm to get ready.
The rig was aooOrditigly taken Into an adjoi^ifftg chamber, and the bridegroom ahowed 'where he might get ready.' This occupied time, But: at length the parties decided, end taking their etations, the service was about to commence. At this instant John filed to a distant part of die room, where the young lady was sitting, srid said to her. |Coma, now, spose you just

andthe bridegroom was in rapttfrei. WNever heard saob a downri^t good thing in atf my Hfo and now apoae you go through it again.'

THE WHEEL BARROW EMIGRANT RETURNED.—
Many of our readers will remember the account published in all the newspapers nearly two years ago, of a California emigrant, who crossed the the plains 'on foot and alone,' with a <wheel barrow> conveying all his earthly goods, that is, his provisions, clothes, tools, &c., in that humble vehicle, and outstrepping [sic] in his march, numbers who started for the land of gold with more showy and expensive appointments. His name ass Brookmire, and he is an Irishman by birth. His residence is at Warren, in Pennsylvania, where he left a wife and family of children in very indigent circumstances when he went over the Rocky Mountains to 'try his fortune.' Brookmire has lately returned from California, with about $15,000 of dust, all of which he dug and washed out with his own hands. And as it is very apt to pour when it rains his wife received legacies during his absence to the amount of $10.000, falling to her upon the death of relations in Scotland.-—<Syracuse Journal>. -----
