The preparation of the work is due principally to thc discussion arising in the Protestant Episcopal Church In regard to the right of divorced persons to marry again-a right which the author unequivocally denies. -From the London paperrof the 7th of May, we see that at the annual election or louuda tlon scholars of Trinity College, University ot Cambridge, England, Mr. Geo. Lockheart Rives, grandson of the late William C. Rives, ot Virginia, stood first on the list of the three scholars of the second year, then elected after thc examinations.

Mr. Rives graduated in the first class of honor in ISG?, at Columbia College, New York. -The Macfarland-Richardson case has been dramatized in San Francisco at thc new Pacific Theatre. The death-bed marriage is made the chief incident, and ls made intensely humor? ous by Horace Creely giving away the bride, and Senator Revels signing his name as wit? ness. The leading comic rul? is that of Ned Harrigan, who plays and dresses Horace Gree? ley to the life. The d?nouement is a perfect re? conciliation between McFarland and his wife, and the curtain falls upon their second nup? tials, the ceremony being performed by Beecher and- Frothinghnm. -Full particulars of tho killing of United States Marshal Story, at Grautsvillc, Utah, on the 2d, and the subsequent chase ot his mur? derer, read like a chapter from some wild no? vel of the Mayne Reed school. Albert H. Haws thc desperado, was wanted for killing a former comrade named Dunn in August last, and a warrant for his arrrest was Issued by Chief Justice Wilson and given to Story and a Neva? da sheriff named Carrigan, at Salt Lake City. On Monday the officers surprised Haws un? armed at the corral near his house, and, draw? ing their pistols, demanded his surrender. He pretended to comply, but while Story was handcuffing him, sprang upon Carrigan and seized his revolver. Story flew at Haws, drew his pistol, got it to Haw's side, but the latter bent his back, and the ball passed by without touching him. Haws in an instant grappled with Story, turned his pistol apon his left shoulder and fired. Story fell, and Haws shot him again, finishing him, Ilten fired twice at Carrigan, who fled for help. Haws saddled his horse, took his own and Hie officer's revolvers, borrowed a gun ol his neighbor "to shoot rabbits." and got haifa mile start of Carrigan, who obtained a large posse o? Mormons to aid him. They got on a wrong trail the first day, but on the third learn? ing his whereabouts, chased him for some miles toward the mountains. Coming to a precipice he dismounted and roltod himself Lo the bottom, then gained the canon before his pursuers came up. When they arrived he ! began shooting and wounded one or two. The posse replied, and finally silenced his fire, when he was found lo be dead. I with fourteen balls in him. He had a gun, and four revolvers on his person, two of Hie latter being attached lo his belt, . dangling in front of him. They sn^re capped and cocked, and to the triggers of each there was attached a small loose string that was fastened to the sides of his belt. When those who shot him got to his body, one young man stooped down to take off one of the pistols, and the moment he pulled it, off it went, and the ball went through his hand and wrist. Another man standing by received the same ball in his side, and is not likely to recover. Thc results of the fight sum up : one desperado, one officer and two Mormons kilied, and two others wounded. There is great excitement over the affair?t Utah, as Haws liad borne a bad reputation, having, as is supposed, murdered his wife to marry another man's,- with whom he was liv? ing up to his death. The Political Pursfm. But, further-the political parson demoral? izes the Community in which lin " pros " peels." Even when he is eutirely sincere, he mixes up terribly the laws of religion and the expediency of politics. Unacquainted with the sphere he adventures on, he not un frequently blunders as to facts and halts in argument He is wont to regard I113 per? sonal opinions as "principles." Of neces? sity, any one who dissents from them is a heretic and a schismatic. Such a person lie accordingly refers to the tribunal, not of his? tory, but of eternity; and he denounces the short-comings of his dissenting friend with a variety of official perorations and heart searching applications, delivered with a cheerful sense of immensity on the part of the censor. Now, what are simple-minded men to do in such a case? What, when their judgment tells thom one thing, aud their spiritual di? rector another? What, when they know the facts of the case, and their teacher is quite ignorant of them? What, when they appre? hend that: his politico-pious deliverances are mere clap-trap and nonsense ? If they trust his honesty, can they rely upon his wisdom ? Can they give themselves up to his guidance in the unseen world, when they see lum so lamentably mistaken in regard to tho affairs of daily life? Either they are knaves and fools, or somebody, who has undertaken to teach them policies, is very much mistaken, and has got into a very bad temper, besides. How unfortunate such questions must be, every one eau decide for himself. And what must be their effect upon ecclesiastical min? istrations, where it is of importance that tlie miuister should speak with unquestioned authority ! Thus, everything sacred ?3 jeop? ardized, and nothing but afactitious noto? riety is gained by the cdmounding of the secular with the spiritual, the temporal and the eternal, which makes up thc r?le of the political parson. How much worse when this worthy is not I sincere, when he changes his colors like a chameleon, when his principles rise or fall with his latitude!. But upon this subject we have no desire to enter. The picture ?3 gloomy enough, even when the most favora? ble light is cast upon it. "A Specimen Brick." We were amused in reading, years ago, the story of an old maid, who came to the conclusion that she must have a husband to lean upon, and who, being piously inclined, felt that she might commit this important 1 matter to Providence. She according went J one evening, some distance from thc house where she resided, and beneath an oak, wide and umbrageous, she knelt down and made known her heart's desire. Her prayer was brief, yet fervent and to the point-"Lord," she cried," "I want to be married!" "To whoo !" replied an owl, whom she had dis? turbed; "to whoo ?" And her answer was, "Anybody, good Lord !" Tiie account given by Forney's paper ol' the late Raleigh Convention (Radical) re? minds us of this story. Tho temporary chairman was one William J. Craven. This gentleman, who was a colonel in the Con? federate service, objects to the anti-Radical party of thc Old North State, in Hie follow? ing refreshing manner: "I have but one " name for them, they are thc Opposition, " and they are thc sime, to a great extent, " who hung like a millstone on thc necks of " tho3e who, during the war, loved and " fought Tor t'ne Union !" But, as if this were not cool enough, Colonel Clark goes on to say: "I admire thc Republican parly, "because they have a policy which they " boldly dare to avow, and principles which " they are brave to declaro and defend." But, if so, why doe? the Republican party admire Colonel Clo' .ce ? Forney says that Clarke's remarks bear witness to his Republicanism and his loyal? ty. ? few ycar3 ago, snell conduct would have received quite a ibil.-reut uauic, and such a mau as the loyal colon'l would not have been allowed to preside over any public meeting, or take any other place in the columns of a paper, except among the police reports. It is one of the signs of tlie de? basement of politics under Radical manipu? lation that the ex-Democratic Colonel For? ney quotes approvingly such a speech from tho ex-Confederate Colonel Clarke. No sense of shame remains. Radicalism depreciates character. The only persons whom it disables and disfrun frauchises are men of character. The knave may aspire to any office in its gift. He may sit on the tribunal of justice, with a coward? ly revolver iu his belt. Ile may gu to Con? gress, his pocket jingling with stolen spoons. Ile may denounce thc comrades who shed their blood, to save hi3 worthless life, during the war. The adoption of certain slang phrases will secure to him honors and emol? uments denied to the most consistent and shining virtue. This condition of things cannot long en? dure. The ?igii3 of chango are already ap? pearing. The people are becoming impa? tient ol practices of rascality, poorly masked under professions of loyally. They begin lo say, as we d<* let character have Hie first place, and pooles only the sect ni The Original Carpet-Bugger. The yatton has discovered that the ex? cellent word "carpet-bagger,'' far from be? ing a new invention, is some four centuries older than those who would assert a right of patent in it. In thc third chapter of the Second Book of Monstrelet's Chronicles is tiie following passage: "En cc temps la '. Comtesse de Hainaut, douairi?re, fut de '. Gee d'un pauvre sar?ue main (carpet-bag " ger) lequel etoit nomin? 1'Escrcmot-Catel, " natif de Ligny en Cambrais, pour hrs " capitaine de la tour de Beaumont."^ Tho parallel is exact. Escremot-Catel (an unsav? ory name) was an adventurer from abroad, for the time being in a post of some conse? quence, and making thc most of his oppor? tunity by pillage, a.s presently appears. At any rate, there is the very word "carpet? bagger." _ Reviews. Mrss VAN KoirTLiKDj_a Novel by the Author of | - Mv Daughter ElajBfc," New York: Harper ft Brother. CharraMbn : John Russell. The author of "My Daughter Elinor" has tried the dangerous experiment of a second book-with somewhat questionable success. The fault3 of "Miss Van Kortland'' are even more prominent than were those of her elder sister. Too great a disposition to car? icature,, and au apparent inability to grasp the finer shades of thought and motive which differentiate character, are grave defects in a novelist, and these are very evident in the book. "Dan," "Harriet Lucy," "Aunt "Hilda," "Turner," and " The Prophetess," are all simply absurd ; and the latter bears a suspicious resemblance lo "The Idol" of | the eather novel. Nor are tho main charac? ters of the sftry much les.? exceptionable. "Noel Seaton" is.one of those heroes that lady novelists delight to honor, and whom male critics most utterly abominate. We are introduced to him as " wearing his most " delightfully fatigued insolent look, barely " enduring ?tis hostess, wearily oblivious of " his host; not condescending to be bored " by the rest of the world, and showing "plainly that he was too indifferent to^ make a pretence." Thi3 languid swell is in love with the heroine, a model young lady, who describes herself as "llirting as outrageously with women as I do with men." There i3 another innocent maiden who varies the monotony of existence by dressing now and then in boy's clothes; and there is a Mr.' Prescott, who i3 nothing in particular. The book is cleverly, but unequally writ? ten-slovenly and epigrammatic altrost in a breath. In chapter XI. the authors ambi? tion to emulate "foreign books" m ikes her decidedly objectionable; and there re sev? eral other vulgarisms which we shall not quote. We dislike thc use of "retiracy" for " retirement;" and we would recommend a somewhat closer study of the Script un?, as likely to guard the -author in future against such a blunder as attributing to Agrippa Felix's famous excuse. Thia is nearly as bad as the confusion between Plalu and Piuttis in " My Daughter Elinor." In spite of all this, however, there is power in the book-power of dialogue, of passion and of purpose, though sadly marred by the faults we have hiuted at. In short, "Miss "Van Kortland " (the book, not thc lady,) is so good that it is a wonder it ?3 not very much better, and so bad that it is a wonder that it is not very much worse.

QUALITY STILL FURTHER IMPROVED. Wc beg leave respectrully to call the attention or the public to our Superior Flavoring Extracts. As ten years have now elapsed since we first in? troduced them to the notice or the American pub? lic, wc deem it unnecessary at present to enter into a lengthy description or their merits, Ac. There is hardly a city or town or any note in the country into 11luca they have not found their way. The reitwn or this widespread popularity ami dally increasing demand is owing entirely to their peculiar excellence and intrinsic worth. Being dficrmuieil to make them the Standard Ex? tra?is ?1 lite day, wo have still further improved their quality, ami now we firmly and honestly be lleve Gua iiioy stund without a rival. Our Vanilla Extract cannot be surpassed for richness and delicacy nf ilavor. lt is a strictly pure and high? ly concentrated Extract of Vanilla Beans. In sliort, we think it the best that ls made, at least, this ls the decision of the best Judges in thc coun? try. Wc don't pretend to compete in price with many of tim so-called Flavoring Extracts of the day, whicn arc really but worthless compounds, undeserving of the name. For uuaiity and style, we defy competition.

Many dyspeptics, who cannot tolerate fresh, light cakes when made with yeast, can eat them with Impunity when raised iu this way. When used according to directions, it is war? ranted to make rich, sweet, light and nutritious Bread and Biscuit, Mullins, Wallies, Corn Bread, all kinds or Griddle cakes, also Boiled Puddings, Dumplings, Pot Pies, Ac.
