'lTus FIRsT FUGITIVE SLAVB Law.-..
rhe Boston Post has the following bit o
Political history:
"Thte Fugitive Slave Bill of 1792 was
drafted by George Cabot, of Massachu
seltts, in Novemher, and it was passed by
the Senate on the 18th of January unani
hmously, fourteen from free, and thirteen
from slave States voting for it.' The
House committee, Theodore Sedgwick and
Sheerjashuh Boune, of Massachusetts, and
Alexander White, of Virginia, reported
that bill to the body, which it was passed
hn the 5th of February, without discussion.
Eight Free States were represented by
thirty-one votes, six slave State by twenty
four votes; free State majority, seven. The
bill received forty-eight yeas to seven
stays. Massachusetts gave six yeas to one
-nay. This record shows that the free States
gassed the first Fugitive Bill."
JAMES AND CooPER.--A London paper
says, facetiously, that Mr. G. P. R. James,
u'n his arrival in America, backed himself,
Ifor a large sum, to write ten novels in less
tirae than Mr. Fennimoro Cooper would
take to write five. At the end of the first
wveek, Mr. James had completed four, and
had got as far as the two travellers on the
ae summer's evening, n the fifth, and was
still, when the accounts letn, in wind. At
the-same period Mr. Cooper had finished one
only and but just arrived at the discovery of
the hero's lost grandmother, in the tribe of
Esquinmaux, towards the middle of a second;
the severe weight of the material besides,
was beginning to tell, and he showed visible
signs of punihment
VILD CAT AND THE ARKANSAS SLAVES.
-This Seminole Chief having failed to
prsuade his own people to emigrate with
hin to the Rio Grande, induced a large
party of slaves to run away with a view of
seeking freedom under his protection.
The Creeks and Seminoles followed the
hand, fought them with a loss of one killed
on each side, took their women and chil
dren to the nnmher of sixty, and carried
them back. Their masters camne fordird
and reclaimed their property, by paving
Ilhe rewards otered, and disposed of such
as were considered unprofitable stock to
them. After this piece of ill luck Wild
Cat went to the Rio Grande again.
A CUnRIoUs CLoCx.---An ingenious
townsmnain of Dudley is engaged in con
structing a very curious clock, which is
intended for the Grtat Exhibition of 1851,
its chief peculiarity being the length of
time it runs withont winding. The clock
occupies, in standing, only eight superfi.
eial inches; the motive poweor is only 28
lbs., and yet the machinery is so nicely ad
justed .hat it will take 426 days to run
down. Consequently, the- second-hand
will make 613,441 revolutions, and the
balance 147,225,t300 vibrations, in the
e time.
tio H'tAGE OF WEATHERL.-A descent of
temperature of London thirteen de
grees (of the thbermometer) kills an are.
rage of three hundred people! The statis
tical account, from which we gather the
fact, adds; they wey not all dig In tile very
next week the loss of warmth takes place,
but the number of deaths is found to in
crease -to that extent, over the previous
average with a short perio I after the
change. Thme fall of temperature, in fict,
kills themn as certain as a well directed
cannon shont. This shows the necessity
of guarding caretully against exposure
to excessive chan-es of temperature.
Plannel is one of the beat protections,
and anm additional garment wvhen the
cold increases is another. It imatters not
how the wveather is, wvhen the body is in
active exercise, but every one should guard
against sitting" in a half-warmed room and
tooling a senisat ion of chilness, or of going
out into the cold while that feeling re
mnained.
A Paragraph for the Ladies.
We recommend the following parag raph
to the attention of our lady readers. It is
from, no less authority thani the grave
London Quarterly Review:
1low To WEAR A SnAwr.--f a lady
.sports a shawl at all, and only very few
should venture to do so, we should recoim
iiends it to be always either falling off or
putting on wh'ich produces pretty actin.
Or she should wear it upon one shoulder &
down tihe other or in some way drawn irrog
ularly, so as to break the unmformiity. One
of the faits of the present costume, as
every real artist. knows, is that it ofl'rs
few diagonical lines. Nothing is mnore
pieluresque than a line across tihe bust, like
the brouod ribbon of tihe order of the garter
as worn by Queen Victoria, or thme loose
girdle, sloping across the hips in the cos
tunme of tihe early Plantagenets. On this
very account, thme long scarf shawl is as
,limtmesqiue a thing as a lady can wear.
Vith the broad pattern sweeping over one
shoulder. and a narrow one or none at all
onm time other, it suipplies thme eye with that
irregularity which drapery requires; wvhile
time slanting formo and colors of tihe border,
lying carelessly round time figure gives that
.eastern idlea which every shawl mere or
less imiplies. Whait Oriental would ever
.wear one straight up anmd down, anid umform
-on both sides, as otir ladies often do!
Singular Testimony.
During the last monthm thmere was a sin.
ugular instance exiibited at l Air, in
Maryland, of time working of the law, which
forbids a second trial of a person for a crimme
aif wvhich he has once been acqumited. Somie
time ago, the body of a man nmamned Iham.
mnand was foun~d hearing evident marks of
tis having beenm cruelly murdered. Sus
picion fastened upon two persons inmed
ktump amnd Griffith, who were accordingly
,arrested and brought to trial. Stummp was
tried first, and acquitted, thme jury not think
-iung theo evidence sutlic:ently strong to
wvarrant them in hanging him. Griffith was
next put on trial, anid on the 2lth ul., a
verdict wvas retturned of 'mnot guilty," omn the
iollowinig singular testimony'
Stump having been acquitted of the
murder, his evidence wtas of Course adlimissi
