There seems to bo a vigor in ;the Anglo-Sixoo brood that triumphs over all obstacles, whether physic*!, political or moral. Twenty-! five years ago Now Ho] laud* as Austra? lia and New Zealand were designated, was dotted with penul settlements, and its white population was only 240,000. The outcast and aondemued criminal classes of Grout Britain were thrown upon its shores, Tbero is now a popu? lation of 2,000,000 of prosperous Britons.' Instead of little habitable land,tas was.then supposed, ono-tbird of its surface (whiob oomprises an estimated area of 8,000,000 square miles) is fit for cultivation. It has thousands of miles of railroad and is DO longer a penal colony. The de? scendants of some of tbo old convicts ooonpy snoh high positions that, as a contemporary remarks, it is dangerous to B?k in the best sooiety who a man's father was. Our own ptlgrim fathers were poor, but, in gauural, honest, whereas the pilgrim fathers of Austra? lia seem to have "left their oountry for their country'a good," und as it tnrns ont, for their own, too. Austra? lia appears to have the advantage of as in this respect, tb?t crime bss been succeeded by honesty there, whereas here?bat perhaps the least said about that the hatter. The population of Australia is nearly no Jorge qq that of thio codDtry iu tbo great rebellion Of '70, Hat itrr wealth is said to be ten times as great. It produces large SuantitHte of jgOld, agricultural pro acts'and manafaotared wares, and next to Hindostan, is said to be Eng? land's most profitable oolocy. It has lines of steamships plying between it and Europe, and is now opening lines of communication with California. The progress of the English-speaking race in America and Australia Beems to 1'ustify tbe prediction of the late M. ?aradol, French Minister to tbe United states, that the Anglo-Saxon would at length become tbe dominating popu? lation of tbe globe. A more important troth than this, and one of more uni? versal interest, has been added by the exporienco of Australia to tbe philoso ptyy-of-history. , It is that even on in? heritance of crime may bo .overcome by Opportunisten to live a novf life, and by increased physical ooraforty.

I A CoLoitA.no Zbphyb.?A letter from Mr. E. S. Nettleton, of Colorado Springs, dated January 21th, whiob we find in tbe Medina (Ohio) Gazette, Gays: "I undertook to. go down to Paebla. When about five miles out, tbe wholn train capsized, exoept the engine, including tbo coaches, the baggage and mail oars and the tender. No one was hart. The couduotor got tbe passeugers in tbe rear coach, and as many as possible on tho sido next' tbe wind. When we got down the valley, where tbe wind had a fair, broadside sweep at as, we again tipped over. Tbe conductor was standing bo side mo, while as a sheet, aud wanted to know what was best to do. I ad? vised bim to stop before crossing a bridge, which was just ahead?the longest one on the road; if we didn't I blow over we wonld jnmp the track, for the wheels were grinding on the side of the rail as if turning a sharp ourve. He palled the bell rope, the engineer put on the steam brakes, nod just as we stopped over we went, piling men, women, obiidrec, baggage, oashions and everything together. For a moment there was quite a scrambling and rattling of glass. About all the damage done was tbe breaking of tbe windowu on the under side of tbe cars. The condnotor and; I walked back to meet the friegbt train which was fol? lowing. It took ns back to the Springs, whore we waited till the wind mode? rated; then took a coach down and brought the passengers book, Some of them were among those Who bad been snowed in ten days on tho Kan? sas Paoiflo Road; They thought being blowed off the track was not so monot? onous aa lying in a enow drift."

Men blubbered as they read ' tbe bulletin boards. An assemblyman was quarter of a. million "oat" on Ophir, but the,' most pitiable cases were topee who had mortgaged their little, proper ties to get the means of speculation, und who now saw it all swept away; There wee a general ou'raing of Sharon, Senator elect, per hape because Sharon was net involved in the down-fell. The magnitude of she orssh may be judged from the faqi that on the 6th, Ophir, which et1 one time touched.d300 a share, was selling at $61, and consolidated' Virginia, which touohed 9715, at $886.

If the Planter or Farmer has not yet bought the Rural Accountant, a book for simple furm ac? counts, let bim do so ut onou. They ulso have a New Agricultural Lease whioh gives the Landlord a lien on orop of tenant. This is very valuable. F12f Consumptives, Take Notice.? Every moment of delay makes your cure more hopeless, and much depends on the judicious choice of a remedy. The amount of testimony in favor of Dr. Sohenok'a Pulmouio Syrup, ub u cure for consumption, fur exoeeds all that can bo brought to support the pretensions of any other medioino. See Dr. Sobonok's Almanac, contain? ing the certificates of many persons of tho highest respectability, who have been restored to health, after being pronounced incurable by physicians of acknowledged ability. Sobeuok'sPul? tnonio Syrup alone has oured many, as these evidences will show; but the oure is often promoted by the employ? ment of two other remedies whioh Dr. Sohenok provides for the purpose. These additional remedies are Sobonok's Sea Weed Tonic and Man djake Pills. By the timely obb of these medicines, aocording to direc? tions, Dr. Schenck certifies that most any oaae of consumption may be oured. Dr. Sohenok is professionally at his principal office, corner Sixth aud Aroh streets, Philadelphia, evory Monday, where all letters for advice mast be ad? dressed. Feb 12U9f3 The Public Confidence Well Placed.?Although the world hoB been seeking specific* for disease for many centuries, few indeed have been found. Promiuent among those few is Hub tetter's Stomach Bitters, whioh, years ago, received the undoraomout of the medical profession, aud was bulled by the press and public as the great reno vant and preventive of theuge. Aud with good renson, since to tho weak? ened stomach it gives strength, to the torpid liver activity, to the disordered bowels regularity, and to the ahakoned nervous system firmness aud tone. Under its benignant influence health? ful vigor returns to tho debilitated aud wasted frame, the fliccid muscles beoome compact, the wan aspect of ill-health is replaced by a look of cheerfulness, tho mind ceases to de? spond, and flesh is developed upon the attenuated frame. There is no exag? geration in this statement. It is as true as that the system is subject to disease. Were proofs required to sub? stantiate tho reality of the comprehen? sive effects of the Bitters, there is pro? bably not in existence a medioice in favor of whioh such a mass of concur? rent testimony, from the most respoot able sources, could be adduced. Bnt the efficacy of the nation's alterative and invigorant has been a matter of nniversul knowledge too long to need any such oorroboration. The foot that it has itslargest sales in thoso portions of the North and South Amerioan continents, Mexioo and the West Indies, in which atmospheric influences prejadioi.il to health exists, proves what oottUdenoe is felt in its remedial and protective virtues. In localities whore fevers of an intermittent type prevail especia?j, it has come to be regarded as an in? dispensable necessity. F19f3?l That Beautiful Girl.?Diseases of the blood are legion, the whole body suffers from the slightest impurity, as ia soon by thousands every day. Look at that beautiful figure, m yonng girl, whose graceful form bespeaks a lace as fair as she is beautiful, with blotches, boils, pimple* and sore*. Thesa are nataro'o benoon-ligUfco, to warn you that yoni* blood is fall of fever and hu? mor. Aud yon would be wise to heed the admonition fa frime.

The weather on Sunday was spring? like; yesterday u little more seasona? ble. Washington's b'.rth-day passed off quietly in this city. "Not a dram was beard."

Tbe sale of reserved seats for Mrs. Maas' Gomio Opera Troupe begins this morning, at tbe Wheeler House.

The "time" of a number of the sol? diers attaobed to tbe garrison expires this week; but a detachment of 150 will more than fill ap the vacancies. The Legislature having knocked the obnoxious "official organ" Aot iu the head, County officers and others can now publish their legal notices where tbey please. The gun-boat, yolept market, came near being destroyed, yesterday. A stove-pipe from one of the stalls set fire to the roof, but a fireman disco? vered it and pat oat tbe flames. Tho third fire alarm in tho last twenty-four hours occurred last night, about 0}4 o'clock. It was a false one, however, and merely served to keep the "fire laddies" alive. Allspice is said to be a 'sovereign remedy for the croup, catting the phlegbm almost instantly, and induc? ing free breathing. Lota of people add a little sugar and corn juice. Another male performance, yester? day morning, near the Phcrnix offioe. Spurs and a whip were all-powerfal, and the man finally conquered. A go a-hcad ox attaobed to a load of bay also afforded considerable amusement. The tooting of the looomotives on the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad, at an early hour in the morn? ing, frequently disturbs sleepers; bat yesterday it was particularly annoying ?the blasts being load, sharp and fre? quent. Somebody says some men think tbey are sober because tbey forswear ardent spirits. Many people get fuddled with love, more get drunk with vanity, while passion trips one's heels, and transforms him into a beast. Reason is your only teetotaler. He who has not been compelled to suffer has probably not began to learn bow to bo magnanimous, us it is only by patience and fortitude that we can know what it is to overcome evils, or frei the pleasure of forgiving .hem. &,The Close gas-burners, of whioh Mr. Samuel Qreen, of this city, is act? ing ns temporary agent, are attracting considerable attention.
