BAss TREATMENT OF A PooR SERPANT i,.L-A few days. ag, a family living jftst across the:river in. Illinois; were ta ken down- with the cholera, and they sent for a faithful servant girl, residing in Bremen, to come over and take care of them during their illness. The girl, im pelled by a sense of duty, left the. place were she was employed, and went over to attend the sick family, with whom she had been acquainted, at their request. The sick persons recovered, but the girl was taken sick, and the ungrateful peo ple whom she had ministered to while they were sick turned her out of doors. The girl, after wandering about without finding anybody willing to take her in, at length came across a kipd-hearted gentleman, to whom she related her sto ry. The gentleman, incensed at the treatment she had received, accompained her back to the house from which she had been driven, and threatned to prose ecute the inmates if they did not take her in and use her wellt The girl was, thereupon admitted, and soon after pass ing the thresshold she dropped down dead. She was tumbled into a box and buried, leaving her clothes and $18 in money, which were confiscated by the parties, to whom she attended during their illness-St. Louis News, Sept. 7. RussiA's 'UTURE PosrrroN.-The Paris correspondent of the London Times, who is generally well informed, states that the Czar of Russia will soon announce, in a diplomatic circular to the various European nations, his future policy. The correspondent also states that this cir cular will be very decided in tone, and will declare that "there is no reason why Russia should be bound by the Treaty of Paris of 1856; that the Black Sea must be free to her again; and that the in jurious obligations imposed on her by a coalition -of the Western Powers are no longer binding," It is also intimated that Russia will fight sooner than give up her projects, and that-war is, therefore, imminent against Prussia and France. Already Russia is preparing forhostilities, for the Czar is gathering an enormous army at Kharkov, which the Times' cor respondent describes as a "good central position, convenient for astart in various directions." Wa&r OUR SOUTHERN GIRLS CAN Do. -The first bale of new cotton sold at Ma rion Station, Mississippi, was brought to that place last Friday, and sold to Messrs. Prewett & Roberts for twenty-seven and a fourth cents per pound-the purchasers paying the tax. Of this bale, the Lau derdale Times (published at Marion Station) says : It was planted, cultivated and picked by the daughters of Mrs. Eliza Puckett, near Push mataha, Alabama. No danger of starving from abject poverty while our women display this sort of industry. We have not the pleasure of their ac -quaintance, but suppose them to be the sisters, daughters, or prehaps widows, of some deceased Confederate soldier, and left without any one to support tnem; and that they, after a sensible survey of the situation, determined that while the -earth should produce something upon which, to live, they would not beg or die fromi starvation. May the Lord prosper them, and when they marry may they -be blessed with good husbands. BROWNLow's BALANCE-SHEET.-Blas phemous Browniow, in his Cleveland speech, last week, discoursed of his future -state as follows: "If God, in His providence, should call me off, I have no fears of the consequences beyond the grave. If the books have been correctly kept in the upper world, as I have no doubt they have been, there will be a small balance in my favor." The "small balance" in his favor in 'cludes, probably, his Philadelphia state ment that he "had rather go to bell with loyal negroes than go to heaven with -rebelI whites."4 SAD AND BEAUTIFUL.-Ex-Governor * Vance, in a recent address before the literary societies -of the University of North Carolina, spoke as follows: "No moments of victory are for us, no national jubilee can we celebrate, no songs ~of triumph can our maidens sing, or gar lands of glory weave ; there is no welcom ing of returning conquerors, nor erecting of triumphal arches for us, to console us for our great iffering. We are all alone with our great defeat and that heavy -sorrow which, "never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting, in our household," and all that we have left for our comfort is the sad yet tender light which plays ~around the memory of those who died to make it otherwise." An English magazine writes, in an es say copied in Every Saturday, speaks of a game which "they play at in France," in which certain members of a company are entirely concealed except their eyes, and the rest of the party h4ave to identify the concealed persons sir 'y by their eyes. The game is known in America as well as ini France. The difficulty of identification is incredibly great, and it is found that the most intimate friends cannot recognize each other by what is considered the r = expressive feature, the rest of the countenance and figure being concealed. One',fourth of Texas is abed with billious fever, and the remainder too lazy to stand up two inuates in the sunshine. One Olive Bratts, of Winchester, Ala., ately -kicked his wife to death. j IMMIGRATION To Tuns STrATE.-The New York Times, of Monday, says that Mr. J. S. Kellery, of Pensylvania, who went to South Carolina1 at therequest of a com pany inbtending to buy land for agricultu ral purposes, gives-a favorable report of the fertility of the soil and of the disposi tion of the inhabitants towards emigrants. He says he finds the people kind-hearted and affable, affording a hearty welcome to all good citizens who come to settle among them, The western papers express serious appre hensions for the corn crop. For six weeks the weather has been cold, wet and unfavors able for ripening it, so that it is still "in the milk," and as frosts must soon come, there is great danger that the crop will be cut off. Such an event is one of the greatest calami ties that could happen, as corn is the great crop of the West. Col. Greene, commanding the 6th regi ment regulars, United States Infantry, and Commendant of this District, it is reported, has been named as Gen Sickles' successer in the Department of the South. "A good-looking, intelligent, well dressed. tidy and prepossessing white girl," of Ohio, has married a big Sambo, about seven degrees blacker than a bucket of coal tar. Mated doves Two souls with but a single thougbt Two colours mixed as one. "Sonny, does your father take a pa per ?" "Yes, sir, two of them. One of them belongs to Mr. Smith and the other to Mr. Thompson. I hook 'em both off the steps as regular as can be." A girl that has lost her beau may as well hang up her tiddle.
