PI.O.
Flo has f: e wickodest, whiningeet way with her,
Merriest ?yo and the sauciest hp;
Boys should be careful whenever they play with her,
O'er her if they'd have tho hand with tho whip.
If some light chan* you would caro to disseminate,
Testing the platitude "woman is fair ;' '
Watch her lip curl as she calls you oflcminate,
Seeing you part in the middlo your hair. *
First for its sate, or for mere notoriety,
She'll look you playfully up and then down;
Ko sharper tongue will you find in society,
Nor firmer woman lor holding her own.
; Mon who are senoiblo will not play false with her,
If they don't caro to be treated with scorn;
Mind and be careful whenever you waltz with her,
Laugh, if you dare, when her "gathers" are torn.
Flo flashes eyes full of love for tho fun of it.
Breaking her hearts Uko a box full of toys;
As to sincerity she will havo nono of it- *
. Girls they are often as careless as boys.
Happy as long as tho silly ones sigh for her,
Proud whon tho flattery falls on her ear;
Florence con kUl; but no boro may die for her,
If he can't reckon his thousands a year.
Ono of theso days-it has happonod before, you know
Flies are entrapped by the sweets they have gorged
Light-hearted Flo will be happy no more, you know,
Fast in the fetters that Florence had forged.
There'll come a time when her cupful! of jofli?y
Some one will snatch, with a pitiless laugh I
Then she w?l see the sad fate of frivolity
Know there is nothing so cruel as chaff!

NEW YOBK, February 7.--The long-talked of
aerial bridge proposed to span Broadway at the
corner of Fulton street, has at last been begun,
the foundation having boon laid yesterday.. Four
posts of cast iron, each fifteen niches in diameter,
and with ornamental bases, will support the struc?
ture, and tho bridge will cross Broadway at right
angles opposite Fulton street; there w?l be a flight
of stairs at each corner, five feet wide, and with bron
railings at the sides. Tho bridge will be sixteen
feet in height from the curb of the street to the
under wall of the bridge itself, which will be strong
enough to support a weight of one hundred tons.
When the structure ?B completed, we will all be
able to walk over the stages and other vehicles ba?
ste ad of having them run over us, as they now do
Verily a great age, and a great city, where it is ne?
cessary, to connect the opposite sides of a street by
a costly and magnificent structure, such as this
"bridge will be.,
The Executive Committee of the Southern Be?
lief Commission held a meeting yesterday at thc
office of Messrs. Brown Brothers & Co., and reports
that tide subscription receive deo far amount to
seventeen thousand dollars. This, however, is
rather small, when it is taken hito consideration
"that A. T. Stewart gave five thousand towards it,
and. Brown Brothers themselves a liko amount.
- The afiair, however, is hi good hands, and there is
much probability that a very respectable sum will
he realized ere long, which will be immediately
applied to the charitable purpose hi view.
The temperance movement ?B gaming ground
here, though, pf course, there are hundreds of
thousands who are determined noe only always to
look upon the. wine when it is red, but to drink it
too, no matter what be the color of its blushes. A
grand auti-imbibing meeting was held last night
at Plymouth Church, in Brooklyn (Beechor's),
the meeting being opened with a prayer so
lengthy that it is a marvel that the preacher could
get through without taking a drink, at least of
- water. The prayer had a good effect no doubt on
.the audience, but a song which followed seemed to
'take-hetter, for,-it. was given in fine style by a
rather pretty young lady. The burden of the song
was ':. ''I will not marry a man who drinks."
A poor newspaper clerk named Hope, but for
. whom'thero is no hope, was arrested yesterday on.
"acharge of having embezzled, in the last two
years, tho. sum e/ Uve. hundred dollars from his
employers. Had the innocent thief been anything.
but"a seedy newspaper man, he would have seen
the absurdity of selling his soul so cheaply, and
would ti least have arrived at five thousand in?
stead of as many hundred. Two hundred and fifty
dollars per year is a poor business for a thief.
Every now and then one or another of the Black
Crook actors appear in Court. -Yesterday one of:
the male ; actors was arraigned before Justice
Dodge on charge of having abandoned his lawful
.wife.. Tho man endeavored to dodge justice, but
Justice-Dodge was too wide awake, and as his de?
fence was not satisfactory, he has been held to bail
to await trial. ?
A grand masqherade and fancy dress ball is to be
. given at Irving Hall next Wednesday hight by the
i Theatrical Mechanical Association. This associa?
tion'^ composed of men who construct and ar?
range the scenes in all the theatres of this city. It
'wilfbe a lively afiair-a feast of theatric al tobe and
a flow of good spirits of all kinds.
An ingenious individual here has invented what
purports tobe a process bywhichit maybe proven
whether or not there be any truth in tho doctrine
of spiritualism, and aotnally ap plied for a patent.
The ghost-seeker contends that spirits can not be
seen through tho medium of common fight, hut
that; the ught must be filtered and refined, and
also confihbd in a close room,which it is by his in?
vention; The patent has peen refused^ on the
ground, that when the room ia so prepared that
the spirits could be seen if .there,'it would not be
possi bio -for five people to breathe therein j and
that the ghosts, therefore, would have all the., fun
to themselves, and, besides, have their numbera
reinforced by the ghosts of those who had desired
to seo them. The main feature of this new ghost
room, invention is' that .the room is painted with
spirits of turpentine.
. -A fery curious 'case came up in court yesterday,
in which the prosecutor was a young lady boaring
the romantic name of Philopena, ana tho de?
fendant a wcalihv merohant. It appears that the
man of business had fallon in love with Ph?opena
and proposed marriage, but that ho had fallen ont
of love again, ' and then in once moro, but this
tune with another, a younger and a prettier lady,
whom he forthwith married. .
Ph?opena -began an action for breach of promise,
but-compromised the matter by receiving sixty
.dollars in cash, a six months note for one hundred
and fifty, and an agreement to pay her five dollars
per-*eek for one-year thT the.wound in her heart
sh. cl heal up. Long before the, wound healed,
however, the base man who had entered her house
and stolen her heart, entered the house again and
stole the note and the agreement; wherefore; he
has been philopenaed and brought into court by
her whom he once courted. MOULTRIE.

clares that an increasing tendency towards mental

sumption of spirits; and an official report lately

?mz CONGRESSIONAL MUDDLE-THE NEW SESSION
OP CONGRESS-ITS EMBARRASSING EFFECTS ON
THE DEPARTEMENTS-AN ABSURD DILEMMA-ABOUT
THE PRESIDENT'S SIESSAGE-THE MILITARY SA?
TRAP BILL-RAYMOND'S SPEECH-A FLANK MOVE?
MENT BY BANKS-EXCITEMENT IN THE HOUSE
THE BILL POSTTONED-A CRISIS CULMLNATDTG.
WASHINGTON, February S.-Hie disastrous effects
of tho revolutionary action of Congress, even upon
tho ordinary public business, aro beginning thus
carly to bo dovoloped. Thc only law passed at tho
Eresent session having as yet any practical bearing
as already croatcd consternation in thc Depart?
ments. With a view to a perpetual lmrrassmcnt of
the Executive, tho Legislative branch lately altered
the timo of tho commencement of the session of thc
Fortieth Congress-requiring it to assemble on thc
4th of March. Tho charlatans were not awaro, or
wore unmindful of tho fact, that by law tho hoads
of Departments, particularly that of tho Treasury,
whose duty it is to report directly to Congress, are
required to make thou* anfhial reports "at the be?
ginning of each session." Ol* course thia per emp?
tor}- requirement cannot be complied with nndor
tho now order of tilings, as tho Departments will
not possess tho first inkling of data upon which to
predicate thoir calculations or estimates, none of
tho bills upon which they are to be based having
yet become laws, nor aro they likely to be finally
acted upon beforo the very day prccoding the com?
mencement of tho next Congress. "When it is con?
sidered that the information contained in those re?
ports forms tho basis of all useful legislation, tho
absurdity of tho chango referred to will become
still more patent. Tho intel1 ^nt reider will easi?
ly perceive the confusion whit., this departure from
a log established practice must necessarily pro?
duce.
"With respect to the course of the President tho
case will present less difficulty. The ConstituHon
simply imposes upon him the duty of giving Con?
gress "fron time to time" "information of tho
stato of tho Union, and recommend to theil' consi?
deration such measures aa ho shall judge necessary
and expedient." It is not at all legally obligatory
upon him to send Congress a ''message" at the
opening of tho session next March, and it is to
be hoped that, unless ho has something par?
ticular to say which may possibly be heeded, ho
will permit tho new body to "peg away" ni their
bimgling revolutionary schemes without any
vain attempts to convince th?m that they aro
hurrying the nation into bloodshed and ruin. The
prataco of addressing Congress ab tho beginning
of each session grew out of that pursued
by British sovereigns in opening Parliament
by a speech from tho throne General Washington
addressed Congress orally, as likewise did the el?
der Adams. Mr. Jefferson so far deviated from
their example as to substitute tho present
mode of communicating by writing, ? which has
since-boen called a "message." This was done,
confessedly as savoring less of royal preroga?
tive and dictation, butis nevertheless objectiona?
ble in the scoro of aping royalty-and although it
has been practiced by every President, as in tho
case of removals from office, the present incum?
bent has had proof enough that such a plea upon
impeachment would not DO available 80 let lum
ponder upon tho propriety and safety of venturing
another address to Congress, especially on this oc?
casion, and if it is intended to be a mere - reitera?
tion of whas he has often enough said in very ex?
cellent English, but which has not boen followed
np by equallv emphatic action.
Tho discussion of tho bill proposing to subject
the Southern States to military rulo was con?
tinued this morning. The few Democratic and
Conservative gentlemen who wero permitted to
speak did remarkably well; but the eloquence of a
Henry or a Webster would havo been wholly in?
adequate to such an occasion. A total siienco
on inc Constitutional side of tho Chamber would
have boon a far moro effectivo and sublime warn?
ing against this enormous crirno against public
liberty. It is regretted by a decided majority of
tho Conservative members that this course was
not pursued, but tho suddenness and stealthi?
ness with which tho measure was sprung
upon them precluded concert of action. As
things tend, tho people of the North, it is to bo
hoped, will bo mt,de to appreciate that this violent
overthrow of tho constitutional liberty of a people
they now regard as enemies will ultimately recoil
on their own heads. In tho short space of ten
years the South will bc ,in a condition far better
fitted for the proposed fundamental chango in the
form of the Government than tho North. In tho
nature of tilings comparatively few Trill over in?
habit that region of country of tho class to whom
forms of government will be of vital personal con?
sequence. The North is filled with a population
who, when they sholl havo lost their political
rights, will have lost their all. The Southern pco
1 plo may be made present sufferers, but will finally
profit by the insane revolution inaugurated by
their inf uriated adversaries.
As th o hour approached appointed for taking the
vote the interest became mtense to ascertain to
what oxtont the Radicals had become weakened by
the refusal of so-called "moderates" to tako tho
perilous lean r.ow required, and at this point Mr.
Kurmond miado a most effective and unanswerable
speech against the Bill. As much os this gentle?
man has been damaged by his many vacillations it
is but sheer justico to say that ho on this occasion
did much to make Conservatives charitable to his
occasional failings. ' His speech was unquestiona?
bly able and vastly disconcerted the extremists.
At half-past three o'clock Mr. Stevens rose to
close debate by domanding tho previous question,
when Mr. Banks requested a postponement of tho
voto for a day or two. He announcod, amid un
I paralled excitement, every member rising from his
i seat, that a measure was now maturing whioh
would receivo tho sanction of tho Senate, and pro
I bably that of the President, and ho desired tho
suspension of proceedincrs upon tho present' bill
until that could be brought to tho consideration of
! Congress. Ho accompanied the annoimcomcnt by
holding out tho throat that if tho President
should not yield his assent to tho plan he alluded
I to, that then it would become necessary to doal
promptly with another matter, and accomplish tho
purposes of Congress by other and moro direct
means. This of conrso referred to the impeach?
ment and immediate ejection of the Executive.
Just beforo closing this letter tho House look a,
vote (Mr. Stevens peremptorily refusing to with?
draw his demand for tho previous question), and
the demand was not sustained, by : voto of 9S to
62. The refusal of Stovohs to withdraw' his mo?
tion, coupled with his defeat, is looked upon as a
favorable indication of tho character of tue meas?
ure alluded to by Mr. Banks.
This has been tho most exciting day in the
Houso I ever witnessed. Matters aro evidently
culminating. It would bi folly to predict results.
Great ones aro in the imm?diate futuro. X.
An Unnoticed Revolution.
Tho London *T(legraph says that tho lelo of
Man, which is only thirty miles long and nino wide,
and contains about fifty thousand inhabitants, lits
juBt been the sceno of a revolution quito as re?
markable for its effective character as for the
bloodless and quiet manner in which it has boen
brought about.
The government of the island is vested in two
bodies. The upper house is called the Council,
and consists cr the two Deemsters, or judges, the
Clerk cf tho Bolls, tho Attorn?j'-G?meral, the
Vicar-General, the Water Bailiff, and the Bishop
and Archdeacon of tho Diocese. This Council is
presided over by tho Lioutenant-Govemor of the
island. Tho lower house is quaintly designated
the House of Keys. This body is so ancient that
i it is now impossible to assign a dato to its origin.
It consists of twenty-four members and a ?speaker.
Its most-enrions feature is the fact that it has
been, until the last year, a elose. corporation, fill?
ing all vacancies by a vote of tho House. This
anomalous government, existing under tho British
crown, and within six hour's sad of Liverpool, had
of late years become very distasteful tc th?> island?
ers, and repeated efforts had beon made by local
reformers to bring about a reform. These, how?
ever, wero unavailing, and the Manxmen owe
their present enjoyment of the franchise to an ill
advised act of the Honso of Keys itself. That
august body took offence at somo criticisms in a
local newspaper, and sentenced tho -unfortunate
journalist, without any trial, to six months' im
Srisonment in .the old Danish fort, known as
astle Rusken. This matter was taken up by tho
English press, and thc journalist was released,
after something moro than a month's imprison?
ment, by a writ of habeas corpus from thc Queen's
Bench.
The Lientenant-Governor, who had long desired
to bring about areform, promptly availed himself
of this opportunity. Ho introduced, some months
ago, into tho insular legislature a bill tho object
ot which was to effect a complete change in tho
constitution of the house by importing the electivo |
franchise into the island. Tho Keys and their few
friends stood aghast at this sweeping measure;
but, notwithstanding their determined opposition,
the bill has passed through its various stages, and
has now boconio tho law of the island, having been
formally promulgated. This promulgation must
be a curious ceremony. All thc constituted au?
thorities assemble for divino s?nico in the Church
of St. John tho Baptist, in thc centro of the island,
and at the termination of tlip service they form
into procession, and march to a very ancient arti?
ficial mound coiled Tynwaldhill, said to have boon
constructed hundreds of years ago by the Scandi?
navians. From the top or this mound tho act is
read hi tho English and Manx languages, and then
it becomes a law.

dent of tho Cincinnati Commercial, writes :
Probably there io no moro activo political worker

in these cold January days, trudging it afoot up

Boston Boot and S hoc Market
There is a fair demand for goods with a portion of the
boot and shoo trade, and some considerable more movc
movcinout is noticeable than during tho first titree weeks
in January. Tho demand is not so activo as it was last
year at this time, or brisk enough so that anything in the
shape of boots and shoes put up iu cases will be accepted,
yet for first-class work of known and reliable manulac
luro there is a fair request from the Southwestern and
Eastern markets.
Tho buyers in market do not seem in haste to com*
plcto their assortmcu ts, us they find the supply on the
market ampio for the spring trade, and tho quality of
goods arc more carefully considered thau when the stock
is short or prices advancing. Wre leam from several
sources that manufactur?is aro working slowly, and are
not disposed to crowd thc market with un sal cable goods,
which is tho beat remedy to apply to a sluggish demand,
especially now that boots and shoes can be produced so
rapidly. With thc home trade business is very duH and
manufacturers aro morely keeping their workmen em?
ployed bocause of tho difficulty of securing competent
ones when wanted for the trade season.
Tho shipments^of boots and shoes for tho month ol'
January have been 37,238 cases; last year thoy were 51,
993 cases, showing a decrease of 14,756 cases. Some al?
lowances must bo mado, however, on account of the in
terruptiou of freight fines during the last two weeks by
unusually severe weather and heavy fall of snow. Thc
clearances for the week by Bea and rail liave been IO.U'21
cases, among which we notice 2000 for San Francisco.
Total silipnionts by rail 8342 capes. Total shipments of
boots and shoes by rail and sea for the week 10,121 cases.

SARATOGA
rlE WATER OF THIS SPRING IS BELIEVED TO
be unequalled by that of any olhor in the far-famed
valley of Saratoga Its virtues aro such as have secured
it the high encomiums of all who have used it, possess?
ing, as it does, in an eminent degree, cathartic, diuretic,
alterative and tonic qualities.
From SAMUEL HENRY DICKSON, M. D., Professor
Practice of Physic, Jefferson Medical College, Phila?
delphia, formerly of Charleston, S. C. :
PHILVDELPHIA, November 15, 1865.
1 havo been for a year or moro post in the habit ol
taking tho water of tho "Excolsior" Spring of Saratosn.
Accustomed during tho great portion of my invalid Hie
to use tho different waters of the several fountains which
boil up aloug that remarkable valley, depondent, indeed,
upon them tor much of tho comfort I enjoy, I sm satis?
fied that the Excelsior Water is as well adapted as any
other among them, if not more to, to tho purposes for
which they %rc generally employed. It is very agreeable,
strongly impregnated with tho carbonic acid, lively and
sparkling. * * * I can heartily and conscientiously
recommend it to all who need a gent?o cathartic and
diuretic. SAMUEL HENRY DICKSON, M. D.
Tho Water is put up in Pint and Quart bottles, and
packed in good order for shipping, Pints in boxes ol
four dozon each, and Quarts in boxes of two dozen each.

A FEW WORDS OF COMMON
SENSE.:.
. How few there ore who are not subject to some affection
of the lungs or respiratory organs, who, by neglecting
premonitory symptoms, aggravate the complaint, until
disease- Btr?kes its- shafts, causing inexpressible torture
of the patient, and anxiety and distress to friends. "Only
a cold I" "A slight sore thro.it I" ls tho heelless nimarlr
of many when so affected. Yes ; "Only.c ??old," wis thc
thoughtless expression of thousands whom Death has
marked for his prey. . ' ; ":
Forewarned-Forearmed ! should he the motto forever
in the minds of all subject to Coughs, Colds, Catarrh, or
Influenza. Words of advice should be heeded by an sui
ferlng from Asthma, Bronchitis, Consumption." -Relief ia
within their reach; and, if neglected, fatal consequences
enano-a lifo of misery-a daily, hourly struggle for ex?
istence. A contest to which'there can be but ono vic tor?
-Doathl ' . . : .:
Does it not appal the strongest mind, to think of the
result caused by neglect? Then why delay? Whatex
cuso can be offered, when timely warning i3 sounded ta
your ears? When tho danger is pointed out, whynot
avoid it? MAnsnEJt's PECTORAL BALM bas been used
with success, ta nearly a million of casos, and is endorsed
by the Medical Faculty as the most i -rompt and effica?
cious remedy that 'scionttfl'c resear-'n'has oUscovered,;to
relievo and cure all cases, of Co ighfl, Colds, Influenza,
and Consumption, if . the caso is not beyond all hope.
Even when the Bufferer ls iii tho lest stages, he will find
relief by using this prop i ration. One- bottle will- con?
vince the most incredulous, that the merits of this prepa?
ration are by no means exaggerated ; in fact, fall far short
of tho eulogies bestowed upon it by thousands who have
been cured by it3cimely use. A guarantee accompanies
each bottle and dealers are instructed hi every instance
to refund the : money when this preparation fails to re?
lieve. . .. y' . . -
