THE PNIENoDIENA OF TIIC BRnAIN. One of the most inconceivable things in the nature of the brain is that, al. P though the organ of sensation, it should itself be inrsensible. To ont the brain gives no pain ; yet in tho brain resides the power of feeling pa.in in any part of the body. If the etirv. which loads to the injurod part be divided, we become instantly un con$cious of suffering. -It is only by communication with the brain that any kind of sensation is prodned ; yet the organ is itself insensible. But there is a cirotumstance more wonder ful still. A certain portion of the brain itself may. be removed.without destroying life. The aitnal lives nint performs all those functions which are tecessary to simple vitality, but - it has no longer a mind. It. cannot think or: fuol. It requires that the food shoul be pushed into its storn nch ; on0C there it' is dligested, and the aninal will even thrive and grow fat. We infer, therefore, that a part I of the brain is simply intrended for the exorcise of the inrtolhetni fntniul ties, .whetber:. of the lower degree, called.-instinot, or of that exalted kind besto.ted On man, called reasoin. .

Mr. Burie went on to Wash ington to see the inaiguration of the new President, bliut without the slight est. tloupht or desire of a call to the Cabinet. Ile called on the new Pre sident on the afternoon of the 4th of March, and found hin at work in his office. "Al, Mr. Borie," said Grant, "have you come on, too, to spy out the Cabinet ?" "Not -it all," said Mr. Boric ; "I come only to see you sworn in as President, and have call ed to offer my friendly congratulations before returning home ?" "When do you return?" asked Grant.. "To morrow, in the noon train," said Bo rie. "Well, good-bye," said the Pre aident, "make my regards to your family." Mr. Iirio bowed himself out;,t,nd did not suspect that he was the "man from Pennsylvania," until the next aftnrnoon, when the train ,stoppcd at Wilmington, and he heard his name road out to an eager crowd at the depot, as that of the Secretary of the Navy.--N<to Tork P) ost.

Governor MeWillio was a native of 8oith Carolina, and a prominent poli tician of that State, but removed to Mississippi twenty-five years ago, and was soon elected to Congress on the general ticket of the Damonratic par ty. In 185.1 he was elected to the Senate of Mississippi from Madison and Scott counties, and succeeded Governor MoRae as Governor of the State. Governor MoWillie took a warm and active interest in all public improvements; ho left his mark as one of the pioneers who.started and push ed forward the various railroads now so important to the welfare of the peo ple of Mississippi.

We hope soon to report the sum subseribed suif flolent for the purpose contemplated nand a contract made for putting up meo line.

AnrenAy AT TilE PINE loUsE DEroT.--.On Thursday last, several meon of the Pine House section met at. the Pine Hlouse Depot, and an affray arising-or, more properly, a con fu sion or commotion, caused by liquior -Luthor Toney was -killed by a ball from a pistol in the hands of Bonjamin Boothie. These men, it seems, were going in a body to molest, in some way, a certain neighbor, or his freed meni, against whom they had a grudge. And the upshot of tihe matter was that Bloothe, in brandishing and flour ishing his pistol, shot Tonoy and kill ed hinm. As to whether the murder was intentionalo net, there is great difference of opinion. Bootho, togeth er with a brother, has been arrested andl lodged in jail at this plae. (A'dgefleld A dverthser.

It is a great advantage to advertise sales of property, houses to let, &o., in the newspapers, of your District, in addition to having handbills printed. A newspaper is read by hundreds who never see the attractive bills which ate posted in our streets. Every subsori bor to a country paper reads all such advertisements. lie knows who are selling out and exactly what is offerod for sale. No money is sd sure to re turn a good profit as that spent on printer's ink. A single additiunal bidder on a single article will pay all its costs to advertise a sale of proper ty in a newspaper.

As tihe officers of the South Caroli na Railroad Company think that the qiuestions at issue between that comn. pany and the Columbia and Augusta Railroad Company are not' generally understood, the South Carolina Rail road Company, with a view to the full presentation of the controversy, re tained a skillful stenographer to at tend the session of the Supreme Court in Columbia, at the argument of the prohibition ease, in which all the issues between the two companies were, by nature of proceedings, brought dip for the decision of the Court. The arguments of the coun sel for the two companies are alike, we believe, presented to our readers in the supplement we issue to-day. Without enter'ing into any commnen. tary upon the merits of the many questions raisedl in the argument, two points, it is conceded, appear worthy of considjeration: 1. That the South Carolina Rail road Company do not contest the right of the Colum~bia and Augusta Railroad Company to construct their road, but simply their right, to con.. struct it upon the land of thie South Carolina Railroad Company. 2. That the questIonl of tight be tween the two companies has never received judicial determination. A reference to the argument will show that all the questions have been keenly discussed. It is claimed by the 8outh Carolina Railroad Company ~hat they endeavored to avoid the p.rotracted litigation )y the proposj.

An Excellent Idea An exchange says : "A method employed in Germany to keep rose buds fresh in wiuter, consists in first covering the end of the recently out stein with wax, and then placing each one in a closed paper cap or cone, so that the leaves do not touch the pa per. The cap is then coated with glue to exclude air, dust and mois ture, and when dry it is stood up in a drawer in a cool place. When want. ed for use the bud is taken out of the cap and placed in water, after cutting off the end, when the rose will Lloon# in a few hours.P' Hope. "A bright and beautiful bird ti Hope ; it will come to us amid the darkness, and sing the sweetest song when our spirits are saddest ; and when the lone soul is weary and longs to pass away, it warbles its sunniest notes, and tightens again the slender fibres of our hearts that grief has been tearing away." The New York Express says : It is estimated that the. new-fashioned spring bonnets will be very small, very elaborately trimmed with flow ers and lace, and, as a matter of course, very expensive. Cold Victuals. We commend the facts contained in the following as being eminently true and worthy of constant practice : "It is not long ago since, in this country, cold mean was looked on as the symbol of everything impoverished and stingy and squalid. In many parts of New England the same preju dice exists yet, and 'mean as cold vic tual' in a qtie common expression to denote anything or anybody that is beneath contempt. In large cities like Now York many thousands of peo ple live more upon cold meats than upon hot, and the food seems to agree with them. Germans live half of the time upon cold ham and saussage ; and they are much given to salad and un cooked vegetables of various kinds. Cold veal is always to be found on the counters in German "estaurants. Fol lowing the English fashion, mnuny re staurants in New Yorlc make a spe ciality of cold meats, and there is a great demand for thern in general, many persons considering thetn more wvholesomo, as well as more palatable, than hot meats. "Cold roast pork Is infinitely better than hot, as well as more digestible. In certain villages of France where the culture of the silkwvorm gives em ployment to most of the inhabitants, while the season is at its height the women are all too busy to prepare hot food regularly, and so the people dine peependicularly, on such cild victuals as may be at hand. They are report. ed as~ being very healthy and 'robush under this regimen, It i.n quMgIQI open for discussion *hy fdod and drink should be taken hot- under any circumstances. Sonme phyticians think that the premature dceay of tooth is owing to the. habit of hot meats and drinks, with frequent .anti thesis of Iced water. Mani, being the only an1mal that cooks, is th. only one that eats hot food, and Is miore liable to disordere of all aorts, than the lower creature.."
