AN IMPORTANT ADMISSION -lu the Fe? bruary number of tho Galaxy, Mr. Thur? low Weod virtually admits that he was the author of a famons article iu thc Al? bany Journal which gave the kcy-uoto to the war against tho South. Tho aim of this articlo was to disguise tho real ob? ject of tho war, viz: Northern absolut? ism through tho abolition of slavery, un? der the falso pretexts of "Union, Consti? tution, otc." It is positively refreshing to rend the confession of this old mon? ster, und fairly to seo in overy word of his writing a chuckle at the consumma? tion of his deceit. We can now nuder stand how so many Democrats, hitherto trno, wero drawn iuto tho vortex and powerless afterward Jto go back from the j whirlpool.

Tho principal one, however, is i this, that under tho present Badieal administration, tho farmers, (uor no: nue else for that matter,) can pay thu [iresent enormous tuxes.

On Saturday night, while the Jv.ist-j wird bound traiu on the Central Pacific] Bailroad was stopping at Alto Station, near the summit of the Sierra Nevada, the mail car was npeucd with false keys and robbed of ?ill the registered letters and a package containing $10,000. The passengers and mail agents wore at. sup? per when tho robbery was committed, and a guard in tho next car says ho heard nothing. As tho mountains are covered with snow, it is believed that tho robbers must bc captured. Father Hyacinth, in his London lec? ture on the war, displayed his usual independeuce of thought. Ho recog? nized tho blunders of France. The loss of Alsace and Lorraiuo would not bo fatal to Frauee. As to the results of the war, ho declared that Germany would become a centre of civilization; while France, again free, would carry to thoir legitimate end tho ideas of the great revolution, aud put au end to the coun? try's threatened ruin. DlSTllESS AMONO COIJOUKD PKOI'??E.-A writer iu tho National Standard, (Wash? ington,) gives a pitiablo account of the squalid poverty prevailing among many of tho blacks of Washington. Thou? sands of them, it seems, are there with? out employment, and tho writer calcu? lates that it would require $1,000,000 an nully to reliovo thc wants of tho indi? gent colored people. The JncksouviTlo (Florida) Union, of j tho 21st, says: Tho construction train went through a culvert, seven miles from Tallahassee, yesterday morning.

A Boston firm saved $35,000 iu gold duties by the arrival, nt New York, of two carg?os of wool, on tho last day of December. The captain of one of thc crafts spoiled two suits of sails iu his anxiety to renell port before the new tariff beeuino a law. A gentleman spunking of the happi? ness of the married state before his daughter, despairingly said: "Sho who marries docs well, but she who does not marry does hotter." "Well, then," said the young lady, "I will do well; let those who choose do bettor."
