The recent defection of Senator Trum? bull from tho Republican ranks, upon the Ku Klux bill, is moro mourned over than the secession of either Schurz or Sumner. Mr. Trumbnll hos the reputa? tion of being more conscientious than most of his fellow-Senutors, and wields an influence accordingly. He is, moro j over, known to be among tho most far? seeing and politic statesmen of tho day, and tho bold, defiant position he has taken in defence of the Southern poo plc, and in behalf of n general peace policy, is supposed to be indicative of a marked change of sentiment among the people he represents. The natural identity of I commercial interest between tho West and South has always boon oousidered ] by the Radicals a source cf danger, until the present time negatived by n miuority j representation at Washington. The next apportionment will go fas, tow i equalizing tho respectivo strength of il ?J West and East, when a revolution against the thraldom in which the for mer is now held by tho latter will be I imminent. In view of this crisis, a de I feotion, so marked and important as that of Mr. Trumbull, is not without signifi? cance, and deadly significance at that, as far as Radical rule is concerned. It is generally admitted that the hedge be I tween Democracy and Mr. Trumbull's Republicanism is one. of the narrowest, and as a general ton don cy toward conser? vatism IB now being manifested through? out the country, he is likely to be brought into uncomfortable prominence for the echemos now meditated. When such men, whose high standing and de? voted loyalty gave color to the advocacy of many questionable measures, with? draws from further association, it is a plain intimation that the extremes medi? tated are not only generally distasteful to a very large class of citizens, but that they will not be tolerated. Deprived of j this power, tho tiger loses its teeth. Unless means and ways are speedily de? vised to bend the broken broach now so rapidly widening, even the blindest of I the Radicals must foresee destruction as inevitable. The hatred of Germany and every? thing Gorman, which has been engender od in Franco by tho recent war, shows itself in a variety of ways. The hardest thing which the Paraisiuus can bring themselves to bato with sufficient cordi? ality, is tho boer of Bavaria. Now this is most decidedly a Gorman production and ought not to hove the love of any patriotic Frenchman, but to bato Bava? rian beer is a test of patriotism too rigid for unman nature, especially French na? ture, to bear, so it is proposed to do away with the difficulty by presenting ti still stronger motivo of patriotism for drinking tho beer. Tho Figaro has pro? posed a duty of five centimes per glass on nil imported German beer, tho pro? ceeds of the tax to bo accumulated for the expenses of a future war against Ger? many. Nothing could bo moro ingeni? ous and satisfactory thou this pinn. It is thereby made a merit as well as a plea? sure to drink Bavarian beer, patriotism is nourished by every glass, and then there ia poetic justice in using the Ger? man beverage for the accumulation of funds and fury to avengo tho wrongs of 1870-*71. AFIUID OF FITJUDUSTERS. -Tho Austra? lian people seem to havo been hoaxed with reports of filibustering expeditions or designs on their country from tho people of tho United States, and a de? spatch from Melbourne, March 28, says that all tho colonies are fortifying their ports to prepare for a descent of this kind. Mrs. Kneas, of Cleveland, had more bod-bngs than she had room for, so tdie soaked the bedstead in benzine.

MANUFACTURING NAILS.-An,English inventor has taken ont a patent for a new method of making nails. From his specification, we learn that the method is substantially as follows: The inventor forms flat bars or strips of wrought iron in the ordinary way, and by tho nae..of ordinary machinery'.' While the bars or strips so formed is still hot, he passes it between a pair of shaping rolls... .One of these rolls ia plain cylinder, .and the other roll has the general figuro bf a cy? linder, with a series of incline or steps made on its cylindrical surface, the.said incline or steps of the roll having such a conformation that the bar roiled between it and the plain cylinder roll has,in-long? itudinal seotion the figure of. a aeries of headless nails joined together shank to point., While still hot, the shaped' bar or strip is slit into nail rods by a series of oiroular slitters, the whole bar being simultaneously slit up by the said slit? ters into nail rods." These ' nail" rods when cold are fed into a beading ma? chine, by which the nails are beaded'and cutoff from the nail rod. -The heading and cutting off maohine which ho em? ploys differs in no essential respect from other machines commonly used for head? ing and cutting off nails. THE NARROWEST GAUGE YKT. FOB A RAILROAD.-A new style of railways will shortly come before tho public in Eng? land under the title of tho Pennier sys? tem. A single row of piles . carries a continuous girder, on which tho train runs, the carriages hanging ' dowh on each side to within a short distance of the ground. The carriages are BO arranged that inequality of weight on one Bide to the.extent of a ton will not affect the action." The.small quantity of land'required, cheapness of construction, and speed, are 'advantages claimed for iL Portland, Me., can boast of ono smart woman if no more. In 'order to save her husband's taking the poor debtor's oath, he being in jail on a debt in favor of an illicit liquor dealer, she visited the saloon where she purchased and drank a glass of whiskey. After she had paid for the liquor she demanded, with con? siderable fire, the rel?ase of her hus? band, and the crest-fallen dealer did so as aa alternative to a liquor seizure and prosecution. A citizen of Kentnoky beibg unex? pectedly called upon to.address aSunday school, ros? to his feet in some -confu? sion, and after some desperate but vain efforts to say something appropriate, hoarsely murmured, "Dear children, never fool with powder." A fellow got permission to leave a bag of potatoes in a New York grocery over night, and when the grocer went home a burglar got ont of that bag and helped himself to the pennies and scrip. Moro than 200 murders have been committed within ten years in. a single County of Nevada, and only two mur? derers have beeu hanged. Auction Sales. Undtt''Joritera* Sale. BY JACOB LEVIN.
