astronomy, I must take the liber- hard trials, and I feel intensely their dire

fate and in the midst of all their misfortunes they never lose the native affections of their warm Irish hearts. About the year 1849. I went on board an emigrant ship at the Custom House in Dublin, in order to see the accommodation of the poor emigrants. While walking on the deck, 1 saw a decent poor man from the county of Meath, with the ugliest dog I ever beheld, in his arms. He seemed to be keeping up a kind of private conversation with" this dog, and occasionally he kissed him so affectionately that I was led to speak to him. He told me that the dog's name was Brandy, that he and his mother were in his family for several years, and that he was the same age as his youngest child. He continued to say that, on the day he was ejected, and his house thrown down, Brandy's house was thrown down, too in fact that the poor dog was exterminated as well as himself. That lit! took pity on him. brought him to Dublin, paid fifteen shillings for his passage to America. and that he would support him with his children as long as he lived. While we were speaking, the dog began to bark on which, I inquired what he was barking at. "Oh, sir." said he. -he knows we are talking about the landlord.

She is handsome, but it is beauty not arising from features, from complexion.or from .shape. She has all three in a high degree, but it is not by these she touches a heart it is nil that sweetness of temper, benevolence, innocence, and sensibility, which a face can express, that forms her beauty. She has a face that- raises your attention at first sight it grows on you every moment, and you wonder it did no more than raise your attention at first.

Her eyes have a mild light, but they awe when she pleases they command like a good man out of office, not by authority, but by virtue.

Her stature is not tall, she is not made to be the admiration of everybody, but the happiness of one.

She has all the firmness that does not exclude deiicacv—«he has all the softness that does uot imply weakness.

Hor voice is a soft low music, not formed to ru in public assemblies, but charm those who can distinguish a company from a crowd it has this advantage—you mii£t come close to her to hear it.

To describe her body, describes her mind one is the transcript of I lie other her understanding is not shown in the variety of matter it exerts itself on, but in the goodness of the choice she makes.

She does not display it so much in saying or doing striking things as in avoiding such as she ought not to say or do.

Jffo person of so few years can know tho world better no person was ever less corrupted by the knowledge.

Her politeness flows, rather from a natural disposition to oblige, than from any rules on that subjcct. aiid therefore never fails to strike those who underataud good breeding, and those who do not.

She. has a steady aud firm .mintl, which takes no more from the solidity of the female character than the solidity of marble does from its polish and lustre. She has such virtues as make us value the truly great of our own sex. She has all the winning graces that make us love even the faults we see ib the weak and beautiful iu herSj

By a private letter from Fort Belknap. Texas, we learn that a party of Witchitaw Indians recently stole a number of horses from Fort Croghan, and made good their escape. They were pursued by Major Siblev, who went into the Indian Agency, situated about thirty-five miles from Fort Belknap, where he found a party of Camanches and Witchitaws holding a taik with the Agent. With the approbation of the Camanches, Major Sibley made prisoners of eight of the principal warriors of the Witchitaws. who were immediately disarmed. He then made arrangements to send two of the prisoners back to their village for the stolen horses, and with this understanding, in which the Witchitaws apparently acquiesced, the whole party went to sleep.

About twelve o'clock at night the principal Chief of the accused Indians sprang up, drew a pistol which he had concealed, and shot one of the sentinels through the heart, and was himself immediately shot by another sentinel. tVs the Chief fell, he repeatedly stabbed the man he had shot, and then I uried the knife in his own breast. During the confusion which ensued, the other Witchitaw prisoners made their escape. Upon examining the tent occupied by the Chief who had^thus put'an *nd to Im own existence, it was found that previous to killing the sentinel, he had, with

wliich is supposed to be a true portrait of Mrs. traordinary affairs in the history of crime.-— Burke. It is certainlv a lovely picture, worthy There is more about it that evinces a loug couof the p.» of the authV, or "Th. E.s», «li Sublime and Beautiful. The following pas-, jgj. merely for gain, than can be found in al-j sages are extracts: most any volume of "Remarkable Criminal

ity hat mark it as one of"the most ex-

Trials" that has been published. Less than a year ago, Beat son, the murdered man, Parks, his supposed murder, and a person named Gee, came over together in tho sarau ship from Europe. Beatson aud Parks had comparatively little money, while Gee was known to have had several hundred dollars. With this he came to Erie county, and deposited a portion of it. six hundred dollars, in the Buffalo Savings Bank. The place of its deposite became in .soma maimer known toBoatson. who resolved if possible to obtaiu possession of it but how to accomplish that object w.\s a matter not so easily determined. A plan, however, was devised, and it* execution at onca entered upon. Ascertaining that there wa* iu thecky a young Englishman, who also came over in the same ship with Qee, Beatson. found him outand intratluectth tin Self as Dee's brother, and succeeded so admirably in convincing his new acquaintance that such was tha fact, that he went with Beatson to the bank and introduced him as such to Mr. Howard, the Secretary. Beatson then produced a letter, previously prepared of course by himself.purporting to be written to him by Win. Uee, stating that he (W. O.) had just purchased a farm near Buffalo, had paid three hundred dollars on it. and needed «ix hundred dollars more »«. gold that he was unable to come in person to 13u!falo to draw it from the batik, in consequence of having been injured by a kick from a horse, and had therefore deputed his brother to get it for him. Under this state of things— being properly introduced, Win. Geo being unable to draw a check—the story seeming altogether probable, and circumstances not suggesting any suspicion, the secretary concluded to pay the" six hundred dollars, and drew a check for that amount on Oliver Leo & Co.'s

Bank. Before delivering tho check, however, the Seoretary wrote a receipt for the money, whrWi the supposed "brother" was requosted to sign. This Beatson declined doing, alleging that he could not write. He did, however, make his mark, which was witnessad by the person who introduced him. Putting the check in his pocket, he proceeded to Oliver Lee fc Co.'s Bank, presented it to Mr. Mercor, the teller, saving he desired to have gold. Mr. Mercer replied that he could not pay gold on tho check except at the usual premium, or unless Mr. Howard should request it. The cool individual said ho would take it back and have Mr. H. do so. Back ho went to the Savings Bank. Mr. Howard assented to his request, and inserted in the check "pay in gold," and with this Beatson returned to theO Lee bank, obtained the. gold aud took his departure. The next that wa heard of him was that he had been murdered and that Parks was arrested for the crime.

Another curious incident in this singular history is that there was found in Beatson's pocket, after his murder, a paper stating that the gold belonged to Wm. Gee but uot more extraordinary than what follows. After Parks'* arrest this paper came into tho hands of tho district attorney of Summitconnty, Ohio,where Parks is now undergoing trial. That officer immediately wrote to Wm. Gee, making inquiries with reference to Beatson as to the truth of what was stated in the memorandum but just before the letter was received, Geo was kdled hpthe accidental discharge of a yuit. When the latter arrived, it was opened by tho landlord where Gee had bean staying, who at onco hastened to the city to ascertain the facts.

Strange imlaed is the web of human life Of those three persons who a few short months beforo were fellow passengers on the voyage to this country, one robs a bank of he in turn is murdered by a companion, and the third, whose money was the cause of it all, is hurried to^another world by tho accidental discharge of *a gun. The supposed murderer is now on trial for the offence, and tho evidence against him is said to be very clear.

Mr.

VELAXO—DEARRAT,

Certainly, sir, know all about the eervice have been Postmaster three weeks, have nothing else to do than to tell you all about it. Well then. There are a great many Ruilroads iu Ohio, nnd more are making. There are Mail Agents on nearly all of them, sometimes more, sometimes less. They all get pay, some four, some five, some six and ao on up to $1000 per year and board themselves. Their duties are multifarious. First they should look out for themselves when there is a two year old Bull under the cow-catcher and leap the cars—government expects tho agents to

For long marches, where the labor of carriage requires the greatest fcconomy of weight, a condensed and portable food bocomes a paramount importance. Until very Intelv the r[fle was thy larder of the frontiersman, but we are now in the midst of a great exodus. Men. women and children strike out into our Western deserts, and the vast inter-spjxce between our Atlantic and Pacific civilizations, is a mass of moving life. We think that a valuable practical lesson might be taught to such emigrants, by the preparation of this littlu Arctic party.

We devoted a morning to an inspection of their resources. They lake out with them, the meat buscuit of Borden, the desicated vegetables of Cholet, the impacted milk cake Of the Messrs. Abbot, and the Pemican of the Indian voyageurs.

The meat biscuit has. after careful experiment. been adopted by Dr. ICane for his sledge journeys. It combines the essential elements of flour and beef, and six ounces a day have been proved sufficient to sustain life, while in active exercise.— Sir Lyon Playfair, who analysed this arto W a re or in qualified terms as to its value. The vegetables are dried by rapidly changing atmospheres, and compressed by hydraulic power so as to occupy an inconceivable «mall bulk. The milk, which is destined to do away with passenger cows, was as hard as brick-bat, but with the aid of a little water, was hardly distingyi»liab]e re a as re am

But the great stand^btj, the sheet anchor of Arctic voyages, was the Pemican. All our Northern Indian tribes, but especially the ec*. and G'hippewyans, use this preparation for their long marches. It consists of the pounded meats of ihe moose or buffalo, carefully dried by fire and sun. and incorporated with fat or marrow.— The word Perait, which, in the Algonquin,, signifies fjr6a*t% is probably the origin of the term

CLK-

SIR:—I

am desirous to

learn what Railroad Mail Agents there nre yet to be uppointed in this State, and particularly in this part of Ohio and al?o what are their duties and the salaries attached to them, aud I do not kndw of anyone that would be more likely to know these particulars than yourself. I will be. therefore, much obliged to you if you will write to mt in answer to these inquiries immediately. Yours, &c.,

through" whether the mails

do or not—other duties there are, such as going when the cars do. As for appointments we do not know of but one being made in the State since the 4th of March and that was in a case where the applicant had spent seven weeks in Washington to obtain it. We thus write in detail, knowing that other applicants than the one above will read.

But from the above, the people will see that after a faithful service to the gouty old gentleman, "Uncle Sam," '.here will be but littlfc tirrie left the Postmaster to try

No 1 horses," investigate "Mangel Wortzel." and do the agreeable lo the numerous list of patriotic gentlemen who are willing to risk their necks on railroad routes in the public service. Besides, the Department has furnished us no blanks indicating the amount of communications chargeable dn this kind of Mangel Wortzel business, and there is no danger of its boing neglected on the ground that it forms no part of our "quarterly returns." Our patriotism proper hastto appear on paper, so the Postmaster General can properly appreciate and credit us. However, so far as we can, we are willing to serve the people in any capacity useful to them, or crediable to us.
