Practical Jokes. Although we are all grown so prac? tical, and study how to becomo more so with daily increasing success, yet practical joking is at a discount. Practical jokes are now voted vulgar, witless, stupid, ill-natured and it is really impossible ? to deny that the popular verdict is a correot one; but they aro, nevertheless', often ^ quite amusing-as witness the following: In the year 1778, a nephew of the Emperor of Morocco visited Paris as his unole's ambassador. He -was re? ceived with great pomp at the court, and all the nobility Tied with one another in giving him fetes. Certain young men thought this afforded them a good opportunity for playing a trick upon a very pretentious man named Septouville, a rich horse dealer. .They began by persuading him'that *Tro ?u^ht 'to invite the Moorish prince to a f?te at his coun? try house,, whioh was ode ol the most beautiful in tho environs bf Paris; they assured him that1 they had suf? ficient influence to persuade his ex? cellency to accept tho invitation and honor the afluir with his presence. They pointed out to him that the money it. cost would bo well spent in the end; that a connection of this description would give great notorie? ty to his business, and enable him to extend' it considerably, and that very likely his excellency would, out of gra? titude, send him some Barbs. Sep? ten ville calculated all'these advan? tages, and decided without much struggle to reoeive the ambassador with all the expens? and show proper on the occasion. Some days after? wards, he was informed that his ex? cellency consented to do him the honor of passing a day at his place, to 'hieb, ne would come on such a day, at such an hour. The merchant immediately began doing all he could think of to render his house worthy of receiving such a guest He order? ed fire-works of Torre, the great man of the age in that line; he had his grounds and the front of his house brilliantly illuminated; he engaged the most - celebrated musicians at a great expense; he sent out invitations to all the nobility and people of fashion whose names and addresses he could get hold of, to the court, to the most distinguished foreigners, to all the handsomest actresses. Of course, the arrangements for the banquet were on a scale correspond? ing with all the other preparations. On the appointed dav, after hav? ing allowed himself to be waited for for some time, the ambassador, ac? companied by all his court, arrived in a magnificent carriage. He was received with a flattering address, to which he replied by means of an in? terpreter. He was asked to sing, and consented with the utmost affa? bility. The fete went on capitally, and Septen ville was out of his wit? with joy. At the banquet, he refused to sit at table with so illustrious a guest, but insisted on standing be? hind his chair, with a napkin under his arm. The ball opened, and the {juests enjoyed themselves thorough y, without suspecting any trick, till 3 o'clock' m the morning, when a body of soldiers and police appeared in the ball-room. They had come to take the sham ambassador into cus? tody, and Septenvillo found he had been duped. The man who played the part of the ambassador was the .sou of a;bookseller named Prault. .He was precisely of the samo age and .shape as the Moorish prince, and was so well got up as to deceive every? body. WToO ffJ? The idea of sending innumerable coffins, hearses, wedding-carriages, pictures, beds,' tables, &o., at a given day and hour, to nu unfortunate individual's' houso, waa originally ..French. ' i ? ' {* But, ?fter all, tfa?s? elaborate jokes are not so humorous aa those* which ure spontaneous, suoh ?s tup follow? ing: A young French gentleman, who led a very gay life, going to bed late and getting, np late, lodged. in an entresol. A milk-woman took up her position under his window, and tho chattering of her customers, with the braying of her donkey, effectually destroyed his slumbers. In vain he remonstrated; the milk-w?r?an said she had a right to the pavement, and that place suited her. Ho got up, No good! W?ftV^f^Sf^w??uld she take to select another station? Noth itig; he was an nriatobittt|rftMdi..ahe mado it a point of honor to stand upon her rights. "Well, then,* hs ?id at last, "siuco you will not listen to reason, I must appeal ' to vorjr donltoy;" and he whispered in Ned? dy's ear, the crowd which had gather? ed round laughing at him till ho ran in. Presently, however, the donkey began to kick and plunge, os if it were possessed, spilling all the milk, butter, oheeae, &o. The woman cried out "witchcraft." The crowd took up the cry, and there wns st?ch a riot that the police came. * "What is tho matter?" asked tho commissary. ; 4?A' young man who lives on tho entresol has bewitched my ass, " replied the milk-woman. "Pooh, pooh," said the commis? sary; but tho woman would not bo pooh-poohed, and ho had to take her up to the gentleman's apartments and confront him with tho complain? ants She told her story at length. The ?oung mau waited patiently till she ad quite done, and then said: "Sir, this woman has spoiled my night's rest for this month post. I have complained, I have entreated; she hW scorned my requests arid my prayers. I could not revengo my? self upon a woman; but her donkey, who is masculine, had no such claim npon my forbearance; besides, the peculiar eries of the animal are what is most distressing to me. This ass, as avaricious os his mistress, has a Bister upon whoso succession he counted, but who is going to marry again; it was this news, whispered by mo in his ear, which exasperated him to such a degree, that he conducted himself in so violent a manner." The commissary, who could hardly keep his countenance, said that tho young man had better pay for tho mild that was spilt, and advised the milk-woman to move her station be? yond the reach of a man who had such a peculiar power of convers? ing with animals. Both assented, and the woman took the money, crossed herself, and went. "And now, then," said tue com? missary to thc young man, "how did you do it?" "I dropped a lighted fusee in tho brute's ear," said he. A French auditor of accounts in tho seventeenth century was a great practical joker all his life, and even played a trick after ho had lost tho power of enjoying it, for he left four large candles to be carried at his funo ral, which had been burning fifteen minutes before they went off as fire? works. When a lady condescends to a practical joke, it generally is ajvery neat ono. M. Boncour, tho rich financier, was very stingy to his wife in the matter of pin money. One day a lady, closely veiled, and very anxious not to bo recognized, called npon him and borrowed a largo sum, leaving her diamonds as a pledge. It was his wife. The ancients used to indulge in practical jokes to a considerable ex? tent. For instance, tho Thraciaus, at their drinking parties, sometimes played the game of hanging. They fixed a round noose to the bough of a tree, and placed underneath it a stone of such a .shape that it would easily turn round when any ono stood on it. Then they drew lots; aud he who drew the lot took a sickle in his hand, stood on tho stone, and put his neck into the halter. The st ono was kicked away; and if ho could cut himself down with his sickle, well and good; but if he was not quick enough, he was hanged outright; "and tho rest laugh, think? ing it good sport." Then there was somo old gentle? man-I forget his name and nation who pretended to mako friends with his enemy, and asked him to dinner; and for tho last course, a largo dish was brought in, which proved, when uncovered, to contain the heads of tho guest's wife and family. This was cariying a joke rather too far. Nero's jests were likewise vory practical. "What a fat fellow that senator isl" he observed one day to a oourtier; "see mo cut him down I" And he did it in the most facetious manner. Indeed, in the early stages of civilization, practical wit is apt to be grim; as society advances, jokes at other people's expense are not quite so heartless; when we reach a certain pitch, of refinement, nothing gives us pleasure which causes pain to another, and then thero is a ebance of practical joking dying out altoge? ther-except in the case of boys, who will probably never be human? ized.

Be canse of ItJfrhr^ynffidfjggt upfjfifr the health of his troops, the Roman po liao made a general raid upon tho frail sisterhoou, and swept the whole body into prison orontof tho Bonton States,' and boasted that they had not left one frail woman in Borne. The condition of the poor creatures, thus driven from the city, is said to be deplorable. A monster named Lyon, in Logan Countj, Kentucky, a few days ago, beat his wife unmercifully, and then stripped his daughter, a beautiful young lady of about eighteen years old, and was whipping her unmerci? fully, when she seized a pistolfwhich the brute had io hie baud, aud with it blew his brains out.

Immediate restoration of all thc States to their right? in the Union, un lor tho Constitution, and of civil government to tho American peoplo. 2d. Amnesty for all past political offences, and tlio regulation of tho elective franchise in the States by their citizens. 3d. Payment of tho public debt of tho United States as rapidly au practicable; all moneys drawn from the people by tax? ation, except eo much as is requisito for tho necessities of tho Government, econo? mically administered, being honestly ap? plied to such payment; and, whore* the obligations of the Government do not expressly state upon their face, or tho law tinder which tbey wero isBiicd does not provide that tbey shall bo paid in coin, they ought, in right and in justice, be paid in tho lawful money of tho United States. 4th.

Iteform of abuses in the administra? tion, the expulsion ot' corrupt men from office, tho abrogation of useless offices, tho restoration of rightful authority to and the independence of tho executive and judiciary departments of tho Govern? ment, the subordination of tho military to the civil power, to tho end that tho usurpations of Congress and the dot pot ism of tho sword may cease. Sth. Equal rights and protection for naturalized and native-boin citizens, at home and abroad; tho assertion of Ameri? can nationality which shall command tho respect of foreign poners, and furnish an example and encouragement to peoplo struggling for national integrity, consti? tutional liberty and individual rights; and the maintenance of the rights ot natural? ized citizens against tho absoluto doctrino of immutable allegiance and tho claims of foreign powers to punish them for alleged erinn: committed beyond their jurisdic? tion. In demanding these measures and re? forms, we arraign the radical party for its disregard of right, and tho unparalleled oppression and tyranny which havo mark? ed its career. After the most solemn and unanimous pledge of both Houses of Con? gress to prosecute the war exclusively for the maintenance of the Government and the preservation of tho Union, under the Constitution, it has repeatedly violated that most sacred pledge, under which alono was rallied that noblo volunteer army, which carried our flag to victory. Instead of restoring the Union, it has. so far as is in its power, dissolved it, and subjected ten States, in times of profound peaco, to military despotism and negro supremacy. It has nullified there tho right of trial by jury; it has abolished tho habeas cor? pus, that most sacred writ of liberty; it has overthrown tho freedom of speech and tho press; it has substituted arbitrary seizures and arrests, and military trials and secret star-chamber inquisitions for thc constitutional tribunals; it has disre? garded, in time of peace, tho right of the peoplo to bo freo from searches and seiz? ure*; it has entored the post and telegraph offices, and evon the privato rooms of in? dividuals, and seized their private papers and lotter?, without any specific charge or notice of affidavit, as required by tho or? ganic law; it has converted tho American capitol into a bastile; it has established a system of spies and official cspionago to which no constitutional monarchy of Eu? rope would now dare to resort; it has abo? lished tho right of appeal on important constitutional questions to tho supremo judicial tribunals, and threatens to cur? tail or destroy its original jurisdiction, which is irrevocably vested by tho Consti? tution, while tho learned Chief Justice has been subjected to tho most atrocious calumnies, morely because ho wonld not prostitute his high office to tho support of tho false and partizan charges proferred against tho President. Its corruption and extravagance havo exceeded anything known in history, and by its frauds and monopolies it has nearly doubled tho bur? den of the debt created by the war. It has stripped the President of his constitution? al power of appointment even of his own Cabinet. Under its repeated assaults, the pillars of the Government are rocking on their base, and should it succeed in No? vember next, and inaugurate its President, we will meet, as a subjected and conquered peoplo, amid tho ruins of liberty and the scattered fragments of tho Constitution; and wo do declare and resolve that, ever since the people of tho United States threw off all subjection to tho British crown, the privilego and trust of suffrage have belonged to the several States, and havo been granted, regulated and con? trolled exclusively by tho political power of caoh State respectively, and that any attempt hf Cougroaa, on any pretext what? ever, fo doprlvo any St ato of this right, or to Interfere with its "exercise, is a flagrant usurpation of power which dan fled no warrant in the Constitution; and, if sanc? tioned by the pooplo, will subvort our form of Government, and can only end in a singlo centralized, and consolidated Go vernment, in which the separate existence of the States will be entirely absorbed, and an unqualified despotism be -established in plaue ui a F?deral Union of co-oqnal States; and that we regard the reconstruc? tion Acta (so-called) of Congress as such are usurpations, and unconstitutional, re? volutionary, and void; that our soldiers and sailors, who carried the flag of Our country io victory against h-tooftt gallant and determined foe, must ever foe grate? fully remembered, and all the guarantees given in tboir favor muet be faithfully car? ried into elocution. That tho publio landa should bo distri? buted aa widely as possible among tho pooplo. and should bo disposed of either under th? pre-emption of homestead lands, and sold in reasonable quantities, and to none but actual occupants, at tho mini? mum price established by the Government. When grants of tho publio lands may be allowed, necessary for tho encouragement of important publie improvements, tho proceeds of tho Salo of such lands, and not the lands themselves, should bo so ap? plied. That tho President of tho United States, Andrew Johnson, in exercising tho power of his high office in resisting the aggrea aiona of Congrees upon tho constitutional rights of the Stiles and ibo people, 1B en? titled to the gratitude of the whole Am cri can people, and in behalf of tho Democra? tic party, wo tender him our thanks for bia patriotic efforts in that regard. Upon this platform, the Democratic party appeal to every patriot, including all tho conaervativo element and all who de? sire to support tho Constitution and re etoro the Union, forgetting all past differ? ences of opinion, to unite with ns in the preaent great struggle for tho liberties of thc pecpie; and that to all auch, to what? ever party they may have heretofore be? longed, wo extend the right hand of fel? lowship, and hail all such co-operating with ua SB frienda and brethren.
