The [c husband, wno ls also .9 member of the same js theatrical company, thought his wife was too 18 ' "realistic" when playing lover's parts, and hence his Jealousy. 1 -There Is something new in railroad M brakes. The London Times describes one j t used ip Bavaria, which has Important quail-1 \ ties. The engine driver and the guards are I provided with a bell-rope, which, on. being 11 pulled, "applies the brakes to the engine and I c tender and front and rear break-vans and j r carriages,-stopping tbe train In about elgh- j 1 teen to .twenty seconds, without any nnpleas-1 s ant jerk, and even without the driver shutting I ? off steam." I * -The famous silver statue, "Peace," pre-11 seated to Napoleon upon the ratification of j < the treaty of Amiens-which statue stood in j t the pataoe of the Tuileries, and gave Its name I . . to the saloon In whlcn lt was placed, Salle de I j la.

The next report] ] was thal Courbet, the artist, had hld lt. He 11 certainly had lt removed from the Tuileries, ! f and he indicated ita hiding place to the gov- ] t ernment. IC -Ad improvement in telegraphy is report-1 r ed, whereby lt is claimed that. messages can I ? be transmitted with infinitely greater rapidity I v than under the existing system. The words j r. to be dispatched are embossed in the usual I ti hieroglyphics upon a thin strip of copper by I n means ol a registering machine, and the metal 10 strip thus prepared ia passed through an 10 electrical a poa rut us so arranged that a steel I a point touches only the raised dots and dashes I h as they move under lt, thus making and I f< breaking the electric circuit automatically. I t In this way telegrams nave been Bent from ld Louisville to Memphis at the rate of seventy-1 ti five words a minute-as fast aa the human ear c ean recognize their receipt-ard it Bald that I fi this speed may be greatly exceeded if a method 1 ?an oe devised for the automatic registration t of messages at the further end of the Une. I t -The one thousand seven hundred and I f eighty Immigrants who arrived In New Tork I v Wednesday, Included another batch of six j c hundred Italian lazzaronl. All the immigrants seemed to havj Buffered very much from want of food and proper accommodations in a rough passage. In the two vessels, the Smldtand Columbus, Irom Bremen, thirty persons died and were thrown overboard. It Is staled that Tor'twenty'days the immigrants were fasten? ed down in the hold with very little to eat. The Mew York Sun says: "The Italians are of the poorest classes of Borne and Genoa, many ol whom were not able lo pay their paaaage. Some fifty of this lazzaronl class who arrived In the first load have slept ever since their arrival In the galleries around the rotunda. They are fed by the commissioners, and as soon as they get their breakfast leave, employ their time begging In the streets, and return in the evening. An attempt was made j to take th?m to Ward's Island with the others, but they would not go. Every attempt to get them employment has failed. It was thought that they might be used In removing the enow irom the street?, but no ooe would engage them. The men aro lazy, and even refused to assist the persons employed about the Garden In clearing away the snow yes? terday." ? _ Fighting the Bine Ridge Scrip. It ls many a day since the taxpayers of | Sooth Carolina have beheld so cheering a Bight aa the determined stand taken in their behalf by Comptroller-General H?ge, against levying a tax for the payment of the Blue Ridge scrip. It is piala enough that the j Comptroller is thoroughly in earnest. Con? vinced that the whole scheme for the isaue of the scrip was, from beginning to end, an iniquitous conspiracy to defraud the State, he i J evidently bent upon exhausting every j expedient known in the courts to save the people from the consequences of a silly and unconstitutional enactment of their Legisla? ture. In his plucky resistance to what every? body knows to be a great public wrong, the Comptroller has the zealous and efficient support of Attorney-General Melton, and tho eminent abilities of the Hon. C. G. Memminger have also been enlisted in the same good canse. -We trust and believe that the contest will be kept up to the end in tbe spirit in which it has been begun. It ls the People's fight; and the People will dot soon forget the services of those who have been their willing champions in so jore a strait. Tho Louisiana Case. The tone of the entire press of the North- j Lbe New York Times always excepted-in regard to the outrageous treatment to phich the people of L^gislana have been mbjected at the hands of the Federal an :n ori ties, is cheering, and indicates a healthy wakening of popular indignation. We rive some extracts, chiefly from Administra ion journals, which will serve to show oar ?eaders the drift of Northern public opinion The New York Independent-& polttico eligions paper-which has been a thick md-thin supporter of Radicalism in every- ? hing, says : "We are not alarmists, and certainly not lostlle to the President; yet the prlnelples in? volved In this Louisiana dispute go to the ^ery life of our system of government. They aise an issue in respect to which we cannot >e Indifferent. If the results of State elec-1 Ions can be determined In the way In which hey were determined In Louisiana, and il the J txecutive power ot ihe President may be in? voked to sustain these results, then. Indeed, ve have reaohed the end of State Govern-1 nen ts. They exist only by sufferance. The rery provision ol the Constitution whloh was mended for their protection In an extreme ase, becomes the Instrument of their de- j traction. We can have no sympathy with, md lend no support to, such a fatal centran-1 allon as this implies." And the Golden Age (Theodore Til ton) ixpresses the same ideas in equally forcible j rords : "The policy pursued by the administration oward Louisiana IB not only in violation ot he Constitution and a marked departure rom the traditions and spirit of iheGovern nent in Its dealing with the States; it is a langerous one. It the President can make ,nd unmake a Slate Government In Lou siana, what shall binder his making a gov- ? irnmeat for Missouri or Now York ? If these ecent usurpations In New Orleans are sane toned by Congress, and allowed to go unre inked by tbe people, what shall hinder almi? ar and even ? greater usurpations In aoy and .?very State In the Union ? Admit the right ot he Federal authorities to unmake and make ?tate Governments at will, and the republic ls Irtually at an end. Doubtless President ?rant did not propose at the first to Interfere vllh the legitimate authorities and local af alrs of Louisiana. But the spirit of his ad nlnlstratlon ls military, and he insensibly In-1 illnes to arbitrary methods and acts. He ls nore of a commander-in-chief than a Pr?v? ient, and forgets that the nation ls not un nmy, of which the States are merely corps | md detachments." The Herald, which gave powerful aid to j he re-election of Grant, and promised ns a | vorld of good things from his second term, hos comments on the Casey-Packard tale, mt forth by Herron : "The weakness ol Mr. H erro n's case shows he outrageous usurpation of Judge Darell's toort. Under the cover of a law whloh con? ers upon this court special jurisdiction to give ellet to a person who, being a candidate for my office 'except elector for President or vice-President, member or delegate in Con grefB, or member ot the State Legislature,' s defeated In the election and deprived of his < tffice in consequence of the denial ol the right o vote of any citizen 'on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude,' rodge Durell Interposed to prevent the regalar ? kate Returning Board from declaring tbe re? mit of the election, to give a pretended legal? ly to the existence of the bogus Herron 3oard,'and to place In office such members of he State Legislature as Herron and hie a ?so? llate?, without a single official return to guide hem, chose to declare duly elected. To ac? complish this flagrant usurpation Judge Du? ell, with the co-operation of a partisan United States marshal, surrounded the Statehouse vi th cannon and Federal bayonets; held armed lossession of the balls of legislation, seized ipon the State armory, disarmed the State Qilitia, and thus assisted In the displacement >f the Governor.of the State, the breaking up f Independent State courtSythe suppression of j . free press, and all the other outrages whloh tave followed in the wake of Federal in ter? rence. It is these felonious assaults upon he constitutional rights of a State-these in? dentions that the liberties of the people may ie held at the mercy ot any partisan Federal ourt, backed up by Federal bayonets-that iave startled and alarmed the people. Apart I rom this they care nothing about the squab iles ol the Louisiana scalawags and carpet iagg;rs, and would be only too glad if their I Ight could have a termination similar Ut that i vhlcb. resulted from the battle ot the histor!- t al cats ot Kilkenny." < Tbe same paper, speaking of the action of j the bogus State Court, bas the following: "The State Government, defeated by the people, but forced Into power through the orders'of a Federal Judge, backed by Federal bayonets, havlug abolished adverse courts, driven from the bench all Independent Judges and filled their places with, partisans, now de-1 sires to create the belief that its cause is in the h and 3 of the State Judiciary. The people will not, however, iorget that Louisiana bas been revolutionized by Federal power, and that the Federal usurpation consummated In that State, If suffered to pass unrebuked, may be practiced la New York lour years from now." The Express bas the following OD the out? rage of subverting a State by arms and fraud: . "Wheo we see a President of the United States allowlDg the soldiers ol the United States to be used as ours lu Louisiana are, (and very likely to be in Alabama and Arkansas,) we cannot help uttering this prayer from the very depth of our heart-'God save the Commonwealth'-tor God alone can save the Republic, now gone beyond man's preservation. By an immense majority forty millions of people bave Just reinvested General Grant with the Bxecutlve power, and his first use of lt ls to subvert States, Sute Judiciaries, State Governments, State laws, State elections. 'God save the Com mon 'wealth,' then, we utter lo prayer, with a fer? vency we never felt before In matters purely political and social. What most distresses us In this great exigency ls not alone the subver? sion of the civil government by military power, but the comparative Indifference of the Republican lawyers, and the Republican scholars and scientists of the country, to this great Revolution tn our Republic-all the more perilous, we may add, for the FUTORE because of the tame acquiesence of the PRESENT. Re? publican men ot eminence have little to say against lt. Some of them, to be sure, leellngly remonstrate, but the great body of them' demonstrate that when party is concerned the love of liberty and of constitutional and civil law ls very subordinate." Good Cooking. A contemporary very clearly states a truth whloh bas often been impressed by practical experience, that the good health of the com? munity depends more upon good cooking iban upon anything else. Better, it says, wear Ill fitting clothes, tight boots, live In houses that Bhrlnk, and crack, and tumble down, use urnlture that comes to pieces, and travel over roads like most of our city streets, than to eat ill-cooked food. Cooking ls the only art that 1B no ivhere systematically taught, and great waste of materials ls the result, as well as disease. The waste of fuel, also, ls enormous, from the ignorance of women lo regard to the management of ranges and cooking steves. More o? practical lessons in our private schools for girls in this line would bean advantage. Home education, by com? petent heads of families, on the subject ls also very desirable. Ii a large portion ol the at? tention which ls given to dress, of which Lhere ls an over and silly abundance, was di? rected to the careful study and practice of Hooking, so as to attain to excellence and Beonomy lu the art, good health would be promoted. Good dispositions would naturally follow; for dyspepsia, engendered from badly ;ooked food, would no longer beget bad tem? per, and the peace ol the household and the Happiness of the family would be generally Improved._ _ _ Tb? Fuel Question In England. Some substitute lor coal as fuel would be particularly acceptable to England Just at present. The miners there threaten to strike, the mines themselves are becoming dally more expensive to work, and the price ol joal ls consequently becoming a serious mat? ter. Wood, of course, there ls none; and the iee of charcoal, so common in France, would ie Impossible to an English cook. So, lat? terly, the use ol chalk bas been mooted, "halk ls known to burn well; and limestone throws out a fierce heat. It retains combos Lion also for a considerable time. This fuel England can obtain in any desired quantity. The "White Cliffs of Albion" are formed ol lt, ind would last many years. Even if a mix? ture ls made of chalk and coal, there will be a raving. It may appear strange, but li so common au article answers Just in time so valuable a purpose, lt will be only tbe case Df those "hard, black stones," as coal was at drat called, over again. For many years they were known, but it was only after repeated axperiments and much ridicule that they were used as luel. Railway Meals. The New York Observer lu anxious to have the European plan of taking meals on railway trains adopted In tbls country. The writer gives an Incident that happened in Europe. Beooming hungry, a friend advises him to order dinner : The telegraph carried the order ten miles ahead In a moment, and when the train drew np at the next station, the door was ?pened, and a circular basket, three leet high and one foot la diameter, waa put into our compart? ment. Upon the lop were kDlle and fork, speoo and napkin, a bottle of waler and a flask of wine and a glass; a little Bait and pep? per, and a large roil. Opening a door In the Bide of the basket, we Baw lour shelves; on each shelf a dish. The first was a hot soup, the second a slice ot a Ia mode beef, the third vegetables, and the fourth bali a chicken and salad. A bunch of delicious grapes was also tonnd on one of the shelves. At the next stopping place a porter received the basket and the pay. There really is no reason why travellers should not enjoy a quiet dinner or lunch ll they please In this way. Everyone who in travelling has taken a well-filled basket, and felt himself Inde? pendent of the "twenty minutes tor reireBh "mente" bawled tn bis ears, knows the comiort of the fashion. If the neatness and skill of the French ia getting up an appetizing little repast could be transported over here, wlih the custom Itself, it would be a most delight? ful Innovation. We fear that our Mugby Junctions are as yet lu little danger of annihi? lation. _ _ Stanley's Book. How I FOUND LIVINGSTONE : Travels, Adven? tures and Discoveries lo Central Alrica, in? cluding an Account of Four Months' Resi? dence with Dr. Livingstone. By Henry M. 8tanley. New York : Scribner, Armstrong A Co. This Is the book for which the reading publie bave been on the tiptoe of expectation for months.
