Brtioie -vxs--The case of the abju. rant 'is81p of the Diocese of North Carbitia'coritiues 'to excite interest in both hemianphbrs. On the supiect of hi's1 W j sanity, Judge Ives, of C I brother, a man of souid j0ement and Integrity ,writes thus 'tie editor of the "Church Re. 'vieW" "Sir: The statements weich you have readlolnife, had 'which you propose to publish of - constitutional tendenevY to mentardeiangemnent in my fatherfa famIly, anid also of certain facts -in p roofof8Uch tendency, I have no hesitatti~nii'iding,.are fully sustain ed by m own personal knowledge; nor, ave tan' dubte -that the con -Auct a 13ishop Ives, In his late de. feetlo toRome, must be 'attributed, at iast in* part, to that same cause, vizL heieditary tendency to mental derant etaant, aggravated by disease and bf efety great excitencat. I amh , vey respectfully, your obedi ent servant, EBENEZER H IVES." ThiiBishol himself, however, writ ing from Rone, under date of the 7th MaIe, to the Guardian, an English Church paper, declares: "i is not true(thaks be to God's good providence)that I have ever, ex ceplt ,hon under the'lim mediate deliri um oftyphus fever, been deprived of the rii of that measdre of reasdn with whioh God at first was pleased to en do* ind. It is 'tie, - however, that I 1av6 had a brother deprived for a time of that blessing. But how far that oirctrnatauce should be visited upon me as a punishment for following the demands ofdmy conscience, I will leave it with fouiself to determine." With regar to' another charge brought against the Bish4p, that he re cexived a. ear's salary in avanced, he repiie'sby admitting that he drew six inoMhs, pay,'but in his letter of re signation intimated his readin ess to refund. Qirna AcoDENT.-The Paris cor responent or the Washington Repub lic, tells the following: "A' bhoking accident happened here the other'night under the most extra - 'ordinary 'circumstances. A gentle man, at a dinner partty, in endeavor Ing to draw the cork of a bottle of wine, br6ke the corkscrew in the mid die. 'He then tried a method often employed in the South for forcing re fractory corks. He filled up the hol lowLar theibottoin of the bottle with a napkin, and then struck it vigorously with his hand. As this produced no effect; he s ruck the bottom against the fioor. The cork moved slightly, and 'he struck again with greater force. The bottle foil to pieces, and two of the splinters cut the gentleman's hand and wrist to the bone, severing two arteries completely. Blood escaped abundantly, and before the services of a sergeon could be procured he was senseless from exhaustion. He died during the night. We extract the following para graph from the N. 0. Bee, a leading Whag joitenat, in reference to the ap. pointmuent of E. Warren Moise, Esq., as U. 8. District Attorney. Mr. MoIse was formerly of this city. "E. W. Moiso, the U. S. District Attorney, is a Union Democrat--a man of decided brains--the pres out Sgeaker of the House of Repre sentatives, and one of the ablest, most popular and most influential Demo crats in Louisiana. Mr. Moiso is a gentleman. of' 'high character and' standing, and aside from his politics, there are few lawyers at our Bar avho could present stronger claims for the office, on the score of tact, tal ent, energy and professional zeal. We look upon this appointment as ex jrmely judicious." -ThgBaltimore Sun says that Cot ton has-already commenced arriving in that city in considerable amounts over the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, which has caused a demand for Cot ton Presses. One or two have already been erected, of a powerful and eff cient character, for the purpose of pre paring Cotton for shipment toEurope. CALIFORNIA GoL.-Ilunt's Mfaga zine, from reliable sources, puts down the gold dust shipped from San Francisco at $45,559,171. Of thuis $39,007,367 was destined to New -Ydi-k; $470,783 to New Orleans *6,020,027 to London; $40,000 t~ Panama; $15,000 to San Juan. Ta Usa 0, BAD DEBT.-Anu edi tor in Arkansas was lately shot in an affray. Luckily the ball came against a bundle of unpaid accounts in his pocket Even gunpowder could not get through unpaid newspapers bills and the editor saved his life by the delin quency of his subscribers. Surely it is an ill wind that blcws niobody any good. BLUS DAnULas.--The Gardener's Chronicle says that a celebrated culti va~"r of daihlias cxpects in a year or tw~o to produce a b)lue dli, by keep Are FannyFern's Ideas, in relation to a gQod natured bachelor. A pleasant picture, and for which all the elever members of the "rusty brotherhood" should be thankful: "le lifts all the little hchool girls over the mud-puddles, and kisses them when he lands t'hem on the oth er side. Admires little babies with out regard to the shape of their noses or the strength of their lungs.

Here's hoping that matrimony may never undeceive him !" A FRENCH CAssiUs.-A singular sort of fantasy has been la'e exhibited by a young Frenchman, named Bel lemar, a native of Rouen. He went vol. untarily to the Parisian authorities and desired to be placed under arrest. Ile stated that he had been employed as a clerk in various commercial estab lishment but was at heart devoted to the enfranchisements of his country. He had fought for freedom at the barri cades; and had, by a formal docu ment, doomed Napoleon Ionaparte to death, and had sent copies of his decis ion. to the various public Minis ters. All this smacked of insanity; but the Court saw considerable method in his madness, and sentenced the ama teur hero to two year's imprison. Inent. PRTTY GoOD.-The Western Times tells a story of a "distressed agricul turist." A farmer poped in here on Wednesday last to pay his rent, put ing on a long face to correspond with the times. On entering the house he said that t:mes being so hard he couldn't raise the money at all, and, dashing a bundle of bank notes on the table, "there," said he "that's all I can pay." The money was taken ip and counted by Mr.-,the landlord, who said "why, this is twice as uueh as you owe !" "Dang'ed give it to me again," said the farmer' "I m dashed, if I aint took it out of the wrong pocket." AN INDIAN a JOKE.--In the time of Indian troubles; a friendly Indian visi ted the home of Governor Jenks of Rhode Island, when the Governor took occasion to request him, if any strange Indian should co.ne to his wigwam, to lt him know it. This the Indian promised to do, and the Governor told him that when he should give such in formation, he would give him a ma~g of flip. Some time after the Indian came again, and on meeting the Govern or, said 'WVell, Mr Gubernor, strange In dian come to my house last night' 'Ah,' says the Governor, "what did he say." 'IHe not speak,' replied the Indian.' 'What! not speak at allp' irnquired the Governor. 'H-e not speak at all.' 'That looks suspicious,' said his Ex cellency, and inquired if he were there still. Bleing told that he was, the Governor ordered the promised mug of flip. When this was disposed of, and the Indian was about to depart, he mildly said, 'Mr. Gubernor, my squaw have child last night,' arnd the Gov ernor finding the strange Indian was a new born paposse, was glad to find there was no cauise of alarm. Porrs.-Dr. J. V. 0. Smith, of Boston, says that immense crops of poppies are raised in Switzerland, not for opium, but .for the oil extracted from their seeds.' This oil is beauti fully transparent, extensively used in house painting, colorless as water, and when mixed with white lead, leaves a beautiful surface that never becomes yellow. Now that linseed oAl is i-is ing in price, and as much of our soil is unfit for the cultivation of flax, he ad vices the attempt at cultivating the poppy here, which does very well even on poor sandy soil. He says too thma. the oil is quite palatable for salads. Into a tumbler, three parts filled with water, drop two,.or three lumps of phosphu ret of lime; a composition will take place, and phosphuretted hy drogen gas be produced, hubbles of which will rise to the surfatce when they immediately take fire and ex plode. terminating in becautiful ring lets of smoke. This is the same kind ofgas which is generated at the ltot tomn of shall ow pools of slagnat water, in boggy and marshy places, and in graveyards. It becomes ignited by contact with the air, and is called ig nis fatuus, or Wih-o'-the-Wisp.
