WASHINGTON, March 8.-In the House, a motion suspending the rules, for the purpose of introduc? ing a joint resolution authorizing the Secretary of tho Treasury to invest not over 70,000,000 of the public funds to purchase compound interest notes at par, failed. Tho joint resolution appropriating $50,000 for the Paris Exposition was passed. On motion, members were authorized to draw the stationery allowed for a short session. Tho resolution appointing a Commission to hear the claims of Northern creditors against $219,000 seized from tho Citizens' Bank of New Orleans, and divide the samo rateably, wr.i passed. Tho Secretary of the Treasury was ordered to furnitih information relative to prcperty seized in Louisiana.

Betiolutions expressing sympathy for Ireland were also referred to the same committee. Mr. STEVENS moved tho resuscitation of the Com? mittee on Reconstruction, and asked for a suspen? sion of tho rules, but the House refused to sus? pend by a vote of 86 to 50, not two-thirds. Pending ai attempt to resuscitate the Tariff Bill by a suspension of tho rules, a motion to adjourn until Monday prevailed. .

A 13erlin correspondent writes as follows, under dato of Feb. 13 : Just a few hasty lines to announoo that Count Bismarck and thc fivo great generals of tho war dis? tinguished by a natioual reward-tho Conservative candidates 01 Berlin-havo sustained a signal de? feat .it *.he poll. In each of the ?ix metropolitan wards, the Liberals gained the dav. Count Bis? marck was beaton by Herr Waldeck, the well known Democratic member of the Supremo Court of Appeal ; Herr von Boon, tho Minister of War, by Herr Lasker, an assistant judge, of tho Jew? ish porsuation; General von Moltkc, by Herr Wiggers, a Mecklcnbur. {lawyer, who spent threo yearn in prison on the ehargo of having assist? ed ia tho flight 01 Professor Kinkel, together with some other delinquencies of similar na? ture ; and tho Generals von Falkenstein, von Herwartb, and von' Steinmetz, respectively, by Herron Duuckcr, tho publisher -f thc Democratic Volks Zeitung ; Schulze, the founder of the labor? ing men's savirgs banks; and Rimge, a municipal officer of advanced opinions. From a national and patriotic point of view it is to be regretted that tho men who led Prussia into a brilliant war, and rais? ed her naino among tho peoples, should, by the capital of the State they exalted, have been ref used a so.it in th? t very Assombly which is to crown and completo t JO work of conquest. From what has transpired, it appears that none of them got half as many votes as fell to tho lot of Tho Liberal can? didates oppo.-.cd ?0 them. Such is thc deplorable resu: t of th? domestic policy pursued for tho last few months. In nearly all thc cities from which intelligence has reached us, tho issue has beej tho samo. ON 'CHANGE FOR THE CLEEQ?.-Tho following ad? vert?s ment appears in tho London Guardian : Manuscript Sermons.-Several thousands on sale. Specimens on receipt of twelve stamps. .Good logible manuscripts and lithographs. -A brilliant sermon for Christmas dav forwarded on receipt of 3s. Cd.

Mr. Harrv Flash, a poet highly esteemed in thc South, says" tho Round Table, will publish a new yolumo of" poems during the year. .UTE RAR Y. " PARIS-GUIDE, edited by the principal Literal te^rs and Savants of Franco, and illustrated by the first artists. A large volume with twelve hun? dred pages of text and over one hundred plates," is to bo published this month. This will be the most colossal guido-book ever published, and will, in itself, bo no mean contribution to the Paris Ex? position. Nearly ono hundred and fifty of thc most distinguished writers of France aro engaged in the production of this work. Nothing is forgot? ten. It begins with the history of tho city, which department is given to Louis BLANC, EUGENE FEL LETAN, and ED. FOUBNTEB. Next come Scientific and Literary Institutions, " done" by KENAN, ST. BEUVE, BERTHELOT and LITTBE, each author hav? ing a special subject assigned to him ; that, of course, which is considered most congenial. Tho several public schools of Paris have fourteen sa? vants appointed to them, MICHELET, " to do" tho College of France, and FERDINAND BEBTHTEB tho school for deaf mutes ; two writers to describe the public libraries, and M. DESCHANEL to give an ac? count of its learned societies. The museums are in tue hands of eight writers ; the monuments have three ; the palaces seven ; the theatres four, among whom the younger DUMAS, etc., etc. Under the haad of "Life in Paris," Madame G SAND is to contribute a chapter on "Za nature a Paris;" JULES JANTN, a c .apter on booksellers; EMILE DE GIBABDIN, on the newspapsrs; ED. LA BOOXAXE, on the political press; BEBABDI, on tho foreign nowspapers of Paris, and FTBMIN DIDOT, on printing in Paris. Thc Promenades have eight portrayer, among whom CH. PAUL DE KOCK has Les Boulevards Populaires, and TH. DE BANVILLE tbs Quartier Latin. The next department, however, will, perhaps, be the most readable. Mademoiselle EMMELINE BAV MOND gives the "Paris Fashions;" Madame JULI? ETTE LaaiBEBthe provincials in Paris; M. BAM BEBGEB'does the Germans, JOHN LEMOTNNE the English, ?IsKANDEB the Russians, CAABLES ED? MOND tho Poles, and others the Italians and Span? iards. The Americans aro to sit for their por? trait; artist not named. P. BATAILLABD describes the Bohemians of Paris; JOLLTET tells visitors how to live cheaply. ALPHONSE KABB furnishes a paper on the flower market, WALBAS on tho popular Banks, FIGUIEB describes the water of Pans, SEEVIEB tho gas. NADAB'S part is "Paris above ground and below ground;" and TEXTEB devotes himself to tho perambulating merchants {Les petites industries)-and so on all through. JULES FAVBE and BEBBTEB, two of the first lawyers, toll us about tho publio tribunals, and NELATON about the Hospitals. The Morgue, tho cemeteries, tho prisons, the clergy, the environs of the city, nothing is forgotten. Our readers will agree with us in regarding Paris-Guide as tho most completo book of its ldnd ever projected by an enterprising publisher, and calculated to give a thorough insight into the lifo of the city, even to us at a distance, who are unable to "assist'' at the Exposition. GAXABBES PHILIP TJ. has been well reoeivod all over the country ; whioh in itself would nofbo re? markable were it not that M. GATABBE is a Louis? ianian. We hope, however, that this is BU augury of a greater catholicity of feeling among American litterateurs. The Evening Post says : It is a somewhat singular fact that the reign of Philip IT. of Spain has boon moro fully and truth rullv illustrated through the labors of American .iistoriaus than by those of any other country, \Ir. Prescott and Mr. Motley have won high honors n this field of historical research, and have un loubtedly established the place of Philip in his x>ry. There may be new revelations and correc dons of minor errors, but in the main tho unlovely features of the most cold-blooded of despots, as lelinoatod by these master hands, will bc accepted is a true portrait. Now comes Mr. Gayarre, to supplement the work eft undone by two of our great historians. Him? self of Spanish descent, and well known by his faithful history of Louisiana, his book is entitled to a favorable reception, which is also assured by the encomiums of Mr. Bancroft in an introductory letter to the public. The reader will be the fur? ther conciliated by tho modest pretensions of the m th or's prefatory note. Ho presents his work "as in historical essay in its exhibition of results, vhile it really conveys, to tho reader thc most no icoablo facts upon which the various conclusions ire established." He thus entirely disarms cr it:- . siam in the form of comparison with the elaborate ? listones to which we have alluded. Mr. GATABBE has now ready a histor}' of Ken? tucky, in three volumes. There is no longer room to hope that The Reader escaped the fate which our Loudon correspondent : deducted two or three weeks since; three mails ', lave come without bringing a copy; besides, The 1 London Review gives its obituary, so we have seen J he last of one of the kindliest of English critics to ] American authors. Tho faux pas which seems to ( lave boon fatal to The Readeris pretty well known, rho Inet issue contained a savage review of Dr. ; iohnson's preface to his Dictionary, which it sup josed to be by tho new editor. Dr. Latham, and loncluded its remarks upon it by saying : "We do . tot w:sh to kick a man who is" down, but wo do ieg Messrs. Longman to canool this author's pre- 1 ace, and substituto one for it which will do a little ] nore justice to Johnson's work, and put the pre- ( ont editor's in its proper pla^e, as far as they like ?low his great predecessor's." No journal, we lelieve, has noted a coincidence which gives addi- < ional zest to the blunder, although an oclectic ( reekly has, more suo, had among its Foreign ( totes", as jf writton for itself, a paragraph from 1 ho same number of Tho Rcador, in which that ( ournal regaled itself exceedingly ov-.jr a hoax per- ' letrated upon Tho Pall Mall Gazette, concluding 1 nth tho remark : "Tho Pall Mall querulously say?, ] low should we know auy bettor V How, iudeod, J xcopt that editors aro supposed to keep their eves . pen ! 1" It is cruotto laugh at a friend in tho ' tour of his misfortune; but the joke is so rare that j bs victim may perhaps himself appreciate it al- 1 cady, and cannot fail to do so when the first mor- 1 ifica'tion has boon assaugod. Meanwhile, wo ' leartily regret tho domi?e of Tho Roador. New or forthcoming English books worthy of j aention ar? : History of Irish Periodical Litera- * uro, by R.

Lc ?rinco the right ol' publishing his "Histoire de la levolulion Francaise," with illustrations. The igreement was to last three yours, at the end of 1 which time M. Louis Blanc would i asume his rights. The price agi ced upon waB GO.COOf., which was guarantied by Count Louis de C.'mbaccros, for? merly deputy for tue Aisne.

CHARLESTON, S. C., Dirty Linen. If Mr. LINCOLN wad a saint on earth, and we don't gainsay it, certainly the odor of sanctity did not extend to all his household. From a debate in Congress on Saturday, confined very much to Re? publicans, it seems somebody did take away ninety full boxes from the White House, and ran up bills without authority of law. Mr. FAENSWOBTH, an Illinois member, as in duty bound to an absent and fair constituent, came to the rescue, and made the remarkable statement that "most of the boxes were bouquet boxes sent to officers in the army." But he did not say whether the boxes were full or empty. Then followed the following pleasant col? loquy, which illustrated what a set clustered round the "lamented LINCOLN." Let it be remembered these aro chiefly Republican.? : Mr. Radford said he had not relied on mere newspaper reports, but on the authority of the steward of the White House, who packed the trunks with the different kinds of goods. He said that more than thirty thousand dollars of the amount appropriated had gone to pay for back in? debtedness and for goods that had been carried away in those trunks. Mr. Farnsworth-Not at all. By no manner of means. Mr. Radford-1 assert it hore, andi defy con? tradiction. Mr. Farnsworth-Where did you see the testi? mony of the steward. Mi*. Radford-I had the statement from his own mouth. Slr. Farnsworth-We had tho steward to testify \ before the Committee on Appropriations. Mr. Radford-Yes, and he swore to the fact be? fore the commut?e. Mr. Farnsworth-There never was a greater mistake than that. He never swore to anything . of tho kind. , Mr. Boutwell, in tho further course of the dis- : cussion, made some emphatic remarks in favor of : returning the property that had boen ordered without authority, and letting the disgrace fall on i thosj who wero responsible for it. Mr. Kasson, in reply, said that he regretted that the gentleman from Massachusetts (Mr. Boutwell) should have revived the scandal of last session on this subject. The sum that had been ap- . propriated had been used in large part to pay prior expenditures. He would not go further into this , luifortunate subject, for he did not behave, to use the phraso of a certain newspaper, "in washing : the dirty linen of tho republic m the eyes of the ; world." j One other remark was made, and that related to olean linen: i Mr. Niblack, as a member of the Committee on 1 Appropriations, had been deputed by the commit- 1 too to examine the condition of the White House, 1 and he related how dilapidated and unfurnished it bad been found when the present occupants came into possession, they having been forced to go into ] the city to buy table linen, bed linen, ?c. How EDITORS ARE PUNISHED TN SPAIN.-The i "Fourth Estate" faros badly in Spain. The fol- ? Lowing official notice was lately published by the ] Captain-General of New Castilo : FEBBUABY, 1867-In consequence of the action brought before the ordinary tribunal against the ' 3itizons Thomas Lallego, Manuel Blaaquez, Louis ' Blanc, and Felipe Fernandez, oharged with the j jffonoe of clandestinely publishing the journals 1 Holampayo, Revoluci?n and Alerta, these editors dave been condemned, the first two to twenty i rears of the galleys in chains, and, besides, to a i [ino of four hundred crowns, with suspension from 1 ill employment and political rights during the < term of their detention; and the two others to six- ' Leon years of the same punishment. The person i aamed Miguel Mochialdea, implicated in the same i ifiair, and accused of having had iu his possession i :ouoealed arms, has been condemned to three ( fears of the galleys in chains. JOACHIM DE SOUZA. \ Spain, it should bo remembered is a constiiulional ] nonarchy ; but criticism has long been unpopular < n Spanish castles. We all recollect the fate of the ( renowned Gm BLAS, when, in obedience [to the < lictates of his conscience, he ventured to tell the ' IrchbiBhop of Grenada what he thought of his j mmilies. I THE DOCTORS ARD DOOTBESSES.-Many are the 1 rreen things sent forth by Spring; not among the j cast of them are the annual crops of full-blown < Doctors, ushered into this American world with jvery returning March. "Medical Commence nenta" Btare us in the face in every country paper umost that we take up; and the "local inteUi- j renee" of thc Metropolitan journals bring us whole i jolui^ns of "graduates." J Tho Women's Medical College of New York had ts fourth coron icu cornent, on Friday last. Diple-i nas wore bestowed upon niue blushing beauties. ( V Mrs. C. S. LoziEB, M.D., it appears, is the Dean. ( Seven of the graduates have the Mrs. prefixed to ( heir name, and two only have thus far missed it. < Tho New York University Medical College grad- j lated seventy-five doctors last week. Among them j ve per?oive the names of J, CHUHKBAYN, K. YU- j JOZYAN, X EULINYE.VTJ, and J. WABTABET, all four 'rom Syria. Almost every State in the Union was ? cpresented in the catalogue, except South Caro- ] ina. Wo are glad of this evidence of the appre- ( siation in which our own college is held by the i nodical youth of the State. J. P. BENJAMIN IN THE ENGLISH COUBTS.-The J aumorous friends of this gentleman will peruse vith much satisfaction tho following reference to j iis great success as an advocate in the English 1 souris. Wo copy from a Liverpool journal : j Very Gratifying.-In a case in the Court of Ex shequor last week, tho Lord Chief Baron (Kelly) iomplimentod Mr. Benjamin (formerly Secretary J >f citato to the Confederate States, and but lately ! idmittod to the English Bar) o" 'ri? very able ar- ] ,'umont, and remarked that itv. .a very satisfactory o tho Court to find that tho view which they took , )f tho question entirely agreed with the opinion of . dr. Justice Story, who was so well acquainted with 1 he cotton trsdo of both North and South America, 1 Clio case was that tho defendant had ordered from I ho plaintiff one hundred bales of cotton. This } lumber was sent, with tho intimation, however,that 1 ive were not according to order, and that if ho >bjectcd to thoso five, they would take them off \ iis hands, and ho would have to pay for only 95. j rho defondaut rejected the whole, on the ground ( hat his order had not been complied wich; but at , ho trial the jurv found fer the plaintiffs, damages j 14431. SB. Gd. Tho verdict was subsequently Bet isido. Mr. Quain, Q. C., and Mr. Benjamin now mowed causo against the rule. They contended hat there had been a faithful complianoe with the ' irdor, and Mr. Bonjamin referred to a dictum of Hr. Justice Story, in which that eminent authority supposed a case of this sort, and hold that th 3 irdor had boen fulfilled, though the exact amount if cotton had not boon supplied. Tho Court unani? mously found for the plmntifis, and the rulo was lischargcd. A compliment from a Lord Chief Baron of the i Hourt of Exchequer, aid especially from one BO 1 liatinguiahcd as Sir FITZBOY KELLY, is a rare and . heroforo a very high tribute to a lawyer. AMERICAN RAILWAYS.-The Railroad Journal ia* compiled ai: interesting statement showing ho number of miles of railroad finished or iu pro? teas of construction in the United States. From this table we learn that tho total number jf miles of railway built and in process of con? struction is 51,606.54, of which 36,89?.26 aro com? pleted. Of tho number of miles completed, Penn? sylvania has tho largest number, 4,037.19; Ohio is second in rank, having 3,402.93 milos; Illinois third, having 3,2 0.05 miles; New York fourth, having 3,025.30 miles; Indiana fifth, having 2,490.47 miles. Orogou ranks lowest iu the number of miles of railway completed, haring but 19.50 miles. East of the Rockv Mountains, Rhode Island contains tho fewest miles of railway, having but 119.24; Del? aware has 150.40 miles; Arkansas 191 miles; Itansas 240; Nebraska 275. Tho lotal cost of these internal improvements is put down at $1,502,464,085-a vast sum invested to keop us in motion and move what wc produce and consumo. It is alono a significant comment upon tho development and magnitude of our domestic conimorce. Tho average cost per milo of tbcBe railwavs is $29,330.37. Tho average coat per mile of the'railwavs of Pennsylvania ia $45,186.91; of Il? linois. $37,538.13; of Nebraska, $19,334.88; of Mis? souri, $30,167.CJ; of Texas, $62,002.15. A FUNERAL PIIOCESSION STOPPED BY THE MILI? TARY.-On Thursday last tho Franklin Fire Corn pan v of Mobile, Alabama, turned out as an escort to tlic remains of a former memtor of the compa nv, William D. Smith, who was killed at the battle of Murfrecsboro', and whose remains were being removed to tho cemetery of that city. The proces? sion was also accompanied by a band and by a number of friends of the deceased. The Btreet which leads to thc cemetery passes also by tho camp of the Federal soldiers. On coming opposite (o this camp tho procession was ordered to halt by an officer, and after learning that thc deceased had belonged to the Confederate army, he refuBod to allow it to pass. Tho procession was, therefore, forced to turn back, and bad to proceed to tho cemetery by another route, so as to avoid passing the encampment. The Mo! ile Tribune says: "We arc at a lo^s to discover any reasonable ground for this action on thc part of the officer, as tboro waa no military display whatever, the pro? cos-ion being composed mostly of firemen-com? rades of tho deceased." THE FRENCH ARMY.-La Pairie says that the par? ticulars o? !ho law for tho reoga?ization of the military service in Franco have boen definitely set tied in'tbo Council ol State. The president of the section on war and marine was charged with the duty of reporting tho project to the legislature. The time of active service is fixed at rive yeais, after which thc soldier must serve for four years iu (he national guard (mobile). Young men uot in t hc active army will servo four years in tho re? serve and fivo years in the guard. In the guard will also be enrolled all young men who have ob? tained exemption from service under tho law of thc 26tii August. 1855. Mrs. Jane Auatiu, of Concord, has completed a novel. SATURDAY MORNIKGK Reconstruction In Alabama. The Virginia and Georgia papers are filled with discussions on tho Military Bill, and with accounts of public meetings held to consider the same. North Carolina also seems to be stirring, and even Ala b ama is now being heard of. For the jpforma tio:i of our readers we copy the following from the Montgomery Advertiser : It will be seen byreforence to our ' i snatches that, notwithstanding the bold and powerful veto message of tho President, both houses of Congress have passed the Military Bill by tho requisite two thirds majority for the measure to become a low. This action puts an entirely new face upon affairs, requiring the calmest consideration and wisest ac? tion on the part of the Southern people to avart even worse calamities than tho passage of this bill would indicate. The responsibility for a measure so fraught with evil to the country does not lie at our doors, and we should bs careful that we do all in our power to pluck the flower Bafely from the nettle danger. There is hope, and barely a hope, that the Supreme Court of the Unit? ed States may declare tho law null and void before its pernicious principles become engrafted upon the body politic-and no means should oe left untried to have it so decided -but let us not forget that it is now a law of the land, and that if we expect the protection which the law itself guarantees it is our imperative duty to yield a graceful if not cheerful obedience to its provisions until repealed or set aside by compe? tent legal authority. To submit with the best grace we con to what we cannot help and make the most of circumstancea which wo cannot avoid, is, it seems to UB, the only alternative left us; and, as ?fin initiatory movement in the right directicn, we suggest that Governor Patton at onoe call the Legislature together to take such action as the oc? casion demands. Now that tho bill is a law. and will, in all human probability, be put into operation with or without our co-operation, it would ?ooh like sheer madness for the true people of the State to stand back and let their places be usurped by those unfriendly to them. Prompt action of the regular authorities of the State may prevent much confusion and do great good. State Items. THE UNIVERSITY. -The .contributmg editor of the Yorkville Enquirer learns that Professor Sach tlebon (of modern languages) will be able to reach Columbia some time in June. He is now in Europe. As the present University year ends with Jun?, it is to be presumed that bis regular labors will not be commenced before tho opening of the ensu? ing term-rthe first Monday in October.- Phoniz. SAIE DAY.-A large number of persons were in attendance on M' nday. A few sales were made by the Bheriff. Land sold very low. Several tracts, sold by order of the Ordinary, went off at a mere 3ong. Cotton brought 22 cents per pound. [Lancaster Ledger. BELIEF FOB THE DESTITUTE.-We are happy to learn that our esteemed fellow-citizen, Dr. J. J?. G. Mittag, who has been exerting himself for the relief of the destitute ot this district, and who is now at the North operating in their behalf, has awakened a sympathy in that quarter that promises ?rood resulta. A friend informs us that about two bunched and fifty bushels of oom has arrived at Flock Hill, destined for the poor of thia district. (Ve understand that this is a donation made by the ?itizens of Newborn, N. C. [More upon thia point iieroafter.l Besides this corn, we aiso learn that a meek for $800 from the citizens of Boston, Mass., oas been received by Dr. II-. Ibid. AWARD OF PREMTUMB.-On Monday laBt, the pre ninms offered by the proprietor of the Enquirer for the largest lists of subscribers, were awarded ? the successful competitors, The total number }f subscribers returned in olubB amounted to 576. rhe first premium, a patent Cotton Planter, was warded to Captain John F. Workman: the second, i patent Corn Planter, to Major A. A. McKenzie; md the third, a double-acting corn-she. 1er. to Captain Samuel G. Brown.-[ Torko?te Enquirer. SALES-DAY.-Notwithstanding the inclemency of he day on Monday last, a considerable number of portions attended the Sheriff's sales. A few tracts if land were disposed of under the Sheriff's ham ner, bringing exceedingly low figures. One tract )f about ninety acres brought in the neighborhood >f seventy dollars; another of one hundred and. sight acres was bid off at one hundred and five lollara, all cash, in specie. These Bales were hard y a test of either the marketable value of the property or the state of tue money market, as here was no effort made, in either case, to carry he property above the amount of the debt for ?vhicn it was levied; and it is reasonable to Bup }ose that friends intervened to purchase the prop? erty for its former owners.-Ibid. Georgia Items. IN A H?BET.-Tho Atlanta Intelligencer says that ibout seventy-five negroes, dressed out in their jest "bibs and tuckers," attended Gov. Brown's neeting. They applauded ovary thing said about :hemselves vociferously,' but otherwise behaved hemselveB quite as well as their white brethren. At the same meeting a motion wn? made to keep ?ll Citizens present from Voting who ware disfran shised by the military bill. IMPORTANT.-The Macon Telegraph learns that Governor Jenkins will leave MlUedgeville in a day MT two and proceed to Washington, with the view >f informing himself more nilly with reference to fis duty in the present condition of public affairs. Ibis is' a step in the right direction: and now let he people of Georgia bo quiet, and they will hear rom him in due seaBou. The Bainbridge Georgian says thai the people il Jackson County, FLrida, nave raised some noney to build a railroad to connect with the Atl? antic and Gulf Road at Bainbridge, and the Geor? gian thinks that it will not be long till the road viii be running through to St. Andrew's Bay. Temperance is reviving in Southwestern Geor ria. An association has been formed in Thomas? ine, has elected officers, and obtained many sig? natures to the pledge. The Atlanta New Era says that the workmen lave nearly completed the erection of the granito iront of the new Masonic Temple. When com? pleted the brethren will have the handsomest bmld?ig in the city. The City Council of Borne has appropriated fifty lollara for tho purpose of transplanting shade ;reeo in the now desolate cemetery. This example s worthy of being followed in other cities. WHEAT CROP PROMISING.-The editor of the athens Watchman says that from personal obser? vation, as well as information from reliable sources, ie is aple to state that the growing wheat crop in hat section looks very promising. It is somewhat jac'kward in growth, owing to tue coldness of the viuter, but the stand is generally good, and it has jeen growing very rapidly in tho past two woeks. The editor of tho Cuthbert Appeal has just re? armed from an excursion through several counties n Southwestern Ge or ci a, and reports a great want )f laboring bands. Planters ore putting in large jropB of corn and small grain, being determined to raise provisions instead cotton. MURDER.-Tho ??outhern Georgian, of the 21st (published at Bainbrigde), says : "We learn that 3, man named Baaders was most brutally murdered it the house of Judge Hodges, on Spring Croek, in ibis county, on Tuesday evening, while sitting at the supper tab! ?, by persons on the outside of the house; tho contents of two guns, discharged at aim through a click in tho log house, passed through his be..d, causing instant death. APOTHECART WOMEN.-Taroo young women re? cently passed the preliminary examination in arts it the Society of Apothecaries in London. No al? teration in tbe usual arrangements waa made in their behalf, the candidates taking their placos in tho examination room with somo thirty or forty of that yex which bas hitherto on joyod almost exclusively tho privilege of becoming apothecaries. Tho Lancet says: "Two out of tho three ladies passed the .writtou' so satisfacto? rily that no further tesu of proficiency was requir? ed! Tho third, however, was asked to favor the examiners with a tete-a-tete on tho following day, and the invitation having been courteously accept? ed, a passage of Virgil was translated, to the satis? faction of all parties concerned. And so tho inter? esting proceedings terminated; and we may look forward, we auppose, to the time when these young ladies will be admit'ed into the ranks of the medical profession, to take their places by tho side of Miss Garrett, at present the only representative of her sex in the 'Medical Directory.' Wo Bhall require a new title for these fair votaries of science. They will not bo 'physicians' or 'surgeons,' 'Licen? tiates' is strictly correct, but not pretty. Shall we have to call them 'apotheeorrsse? ?'" OILING THE SEA.-An experienced sea captain writes to the New York Herald that he has boen at sea for twenty-eight years, and master of a vessel foi the last ten years, and during that time ho saved the vessel under his command twice by "oil? ing the sea." Ho writes that '"when the master of a ship cannot got out ol a storm-that is, when a ship is disabled and he has to tako the heft of the gale if be has oil on board start two or three gallons dver tho sido of the ship. This will give the slip smooth water to the windward, and then tho oil allowed to run drop by drop is all that is required, for as soon as tho sea comes in contact with the oil it breaks, and tho ship is in smooth water as long as the oil is allowed to run. lu 18G4, in the heaviest gale of wind I ever saw, I lost all my sails, then the rudder ; and I know the vessel could not have ridden the sea for an hour if I had not had oil on board, lave gallons ol' oil lasted mo fifty-six hours, and this savod the vessel, cargo and Uves on board. Lot ?hips of bea vy tonnage have two hon tanks of forty gallons each, one on each side, with faucet so arranged that the oil caa be storied at any time ; small vessels ten gallon tanks, and all fhip's boats tanks of five gallons each, well rilled, so that in case tho ship founder or burn, tho boats will have oil to smooth tho sea in case of a gale. With these tanks of oil on board of ships, and a goud man for master-ono who knows tho laws of storing and handles his shin so as to get it out ol' ibo centre of the storm, you will have no more foundering of good ships at sea. ii: j loss of many liv.'s aad millions of money." DELUDED.-About forty thousand Austrian uni? forms, captured at Kouiggmtz, were recently sold at Berlin. They wero eayci iy nought up by'spoe ulators, as ifc was thought Uuit thu Austrian gov? ernment would pay :uiy price to recover these monuments of its defeat. But unhappily it is a point of Austriau et'??..ette: :evertouso anything which has been in me liaii is of an enemy. The /speculators arc represented as stupefied at their mistake. LIBERALITY OF A LANDLORD.-At the leceut half-yearly rent audit of thc Tadcaster, Ulleakelf, and Scor?by estates, in England, belonging to Lord Londesborough, the tenantry who had suf? fered from the cattle-plague were reimbursed to the extent of one-half of the actual loss sustained.
