SI A CURIOUS DERATE.-In tho New York Legislature, on Friday, a De? mocratic membor moved that a declaration of Preaident Lincoln, painted with white letters on black muslin, and placed at the West end of the Hull of Assembly during the obsequies of the "late lamented," should te taken down. The words are: "I have the most solemn oath registered in Heaven to preserve, prateot and defend the Government." , Ah4' amnsing Rebate followed, in which the taking down was opposed by more D?mocrate than .Repub? licans. The Democrats completely turned the tables on the Republicans, expressing their desire that the motto 'should remain as a rebuke of ..the Republicans for having deserted the position occupied by Mr. Lincoln. The motion was rejected-two-thirds of the Democrats voting against it. At Aberdeen, Mississippi, a few days since, ? little son of Mr. Bean apparently died. Two young ladies and a servant volunteered to keep watch during the night. At about 12 o'clock, tho servant was noticed to be asleep, when one of the young ladies pricked her with a pin, which caused her to scream. This aroused the supposed dead child, alarming the inmates of the room greatly. Upon examination it was found that the child had become warm, and in a short time it was running about. NOTICE.

AN ascription of praise more worthy the triumphs of art than gilded obelisks, or monuments of stone, is thc voluntary testimony of a grateful people. A thou? sand hearts, and as many ready tongues, yield a willing and a thankful tributo of praise to the merits of that incomparable panacea. HEINITSH'S QUEEN'S DELIGHT. These are the living trophies: "?Snatched from thc curse disease lins brought, To speak tho triumphs bkill has wrought." lu the brief period of twelve mouths, over 3,000 eases have been trented so suc? cessfully aa to entitle it to be the wonder of the nge. For debility, prostration, norvousntss. mental depression, impaired digestion, lots of appetite, rest?eaness, want of vital force ana low spirits, it is more invigorat? ing and Strengthening than all the com? pounds of bark or bitters. Aa a liver invigorator, it is of inentiuiable value. As a stimulant, it is safer and surer than all the rum and whiskey tonics of the day, and if you value your life and health a pin's fee, avoid these quickening stimu? lants to t'ne grave and ute the Queen's Delight.
