telegraphed to Vienna. On this basis
the conference of t!)0 7th January was
held,, at which ft closer agreement (welter?
Verstoiidif/uur/) between Hie envoys was at
tempted. This is the draft of Prince CJoitsehakotFs,
which had previously received the
preliminary approval of the Austrian and
Prussian Cabinets. It is as follows :
1. Abolition of the exclusive Protectorate
of Russia in Moldavia and Wallachia, the
privilege of those Provinces recognized by
the Sultan being placed under the guarantees
??f the Five Powers. -
2. Free navigation of the Danube, according
to the principles established by the
Acts of the Congress of Vienna, in the Article
on Fluvial Communications. Control
of a mixed commission, which would be invested
with the neccssari/ powers to destroy
the obstacles existing lit its mouths, or which
might, at a later period l>e found there. j
3. Revision of the Treaty of 13ili ofj
July, 1841, to attach more completely the
existence of the Ottoman Empire to the
balance of Europe. I do not refuse to come
to an understanding, in formal conference,
for peace, on the means which the three
Courts may propose to put an end to .what
they call the preponderance of Russia in the
Black Sea, on condition that, in the choice
of those means, there be not one of a na

The Paris Constitutionnel publishes news
from Berlin, but without guaranteeing it?
authenticity, that the allies have decided
not to allow Prussia to participate in the
Vienna conferences, except on the following
conditions:
1. That Prussia accedes to the Treaty of
December 2d.
2. That she does not oppose the demand
made*by Aus-tria for the mobilisation of the
federal contingents.
3. That she herself shall mobilise a force
of 100,000.
On tlic other hand Prussia chums a right
to participate in these conferences, in her capacity
of a great European power, and be
cause she was a contracting party to the
treaties which are under revision. Prussia
has therefore sent a protest to the cabinets
of Vienna, Paris and London, against the
validity of any resolutions. that are passed
without her participation in the conference.
Rumoubd Invasion of Ccba.?The Savannah
Courier and Journal states that the
Steamer Albert Dcvereaux, Capt. Aiehron
at that.port from Havannn, with dates tc
the 4th inst. reports that General Quitman

on it with 20,000 men?that the Cuban an

Effects of tho Passions.
Every one knows the influence of the depressing
passions on the human frame. A
beaten army has always more sick (exclusively
of the wounded) than a victorious
one; and in civil life, the effect of losses
and disappointments in destroying the digestion,
and wasting (he strongest constitution
are but too familiar to the commonest
observer. But the picture has a brighter side.
Hope and n cess are finer tonics than
any to bo tound in apothecaries' shops, and
even fear may boast its cures. A (ierman
physician, so runs the tale, succeeding in
curing all epidemic convulsion among the ,
children of a poor-house, by the fear of aj
red-hot poker. The fits hud spread by j
sympathy and imitation; and this great!
physician, mistrusting the ordinary rcme- j
dies in so grave a case, heated his instrument,
and theatencd to burn the first who
should fall into a lit." The t!obvuls>ions did
not return.
A celebrated scholar was once attacked
| with fever at a small country inn. Jle was
visited by two physicians ; ami one of them
supposing, from the poverty of his appearance,
that he would not understand a foreign
language, said to the other, in Latin :
"Let's try an experiment on this poor fellow"

tielit gut out of bed, hurried oij his clothes,
scampered off as fast as lie could, and was
cured of his fever by his fright,
j In England, quite recently, a girl being
i attacked with a typhus fever, was sent to
! the hospital. A week afterwards her brother
was seized with the same disease, and
was sent to the same institution. The
nurses were helping him up the stairs at
the hospital. On the way, he was met by
some persons who were descending with a
eoHin 011 tlwir sln>iilil?'i\? Tlift tl/.l- nmn
quired whoso body tliey were removing,
when one of the bearers inadvertently mentioned
the girl's name. It was Ids sister.
The brother, honor-struck, sprung from his
conductors, dashed down stairs, out of the
hospital gate, and never stopped running
uutil he hud reached home?a distance of
twele miles! lie llunur himself 011 the lioil
immediately, fell into si sound sleep, and
awuk'j next morning entirely cured of his
illness.
The most beautiful instance*, however, that
we have met with, is one in which the cure
depended on the combination ot' the pleasures
of hope and of memory. Dr. Rush,
when quite a young man, was educated in
the country, in a very remote part of which
he was in the habit of visiting, in company
with a farmer's daughter, various scenes of
beauty and sublimity, and among others
the nest of an eagle in a.romantic, situation.
For some time these visits were very frei

Many years after, she had an attack of
typhus fever, under which she lay in acotn,
pletutBtate of insensibility apparently lost
to all surrounding objects. In this state,
liush, then a physician, was called to visit
her. lie took her by the hand, and said,
with a strong and cheerful voice. "The Eagle's
Nest!" The words revived an association
of ideas comprehending the actions
of her youth. She immediately grasped his
hand, opened her eyes, and from that hour
recovered rapidly.?American Union.

(Juniors Facts aiiout the Presidents.
?Tlio Boston Transcript presents to its
readers the following compilation of curious
/ rtifUMilpntc lti tin* nnmott on<l livnc r\C fltn
first seven Presidents of the United States
?Washington, John Adams, Jefferson,
Madison,Monroe, John Quinr.y Adams, and
Jackson:
"Four of the seven Wero from Virginia.
Two of the same name were from Massachusetts,
and the seventh was from Tennessee.
All but one were sixty years old on
leaving office, having served two terms and
one of these, who served one term, would
have been sixty-six years of age at the end
of another. Three of the seven died on
the 4th day of July, and two of thein on
the same day and year. Two of them were
on the sub-committee of three that drafted
the Declaration of Independence, and these
two died on the same da}' and year, and
on the anniversary of the Declaration of
Independence, nnd just Lalf a century from
the day of the declaration. The names of
three of th$- seven end in son, yet neither
of these transmitted his name to a son. Of
the first five, only ooe had a son, and that
son was also President."
^nother curious fact may bo mentioned
in tlus connection. It is,. that)* neither of
the Presidents who had a son was elected
for a second term.
Short chedits.-^The New York papers
state that a mo^i|?ht has been made by
the wholesale jobbers of that city to reduce
, the term of credit to six and eight months,
the notes given not being subject to renewal.
It is urged that dealers generally would
consult'their own nermanent interests bv re
solving on tlie shorter credit without renetv
als, and those who do this business only will
t hrtv? flre-acfrantago over those who give the
longer credits. Aj^arge business of thisex'
tended credit need not be onvied. It re.
.quires a large rate of profit on all the busii

Natural Curiositt in* Nebraska.?
On the Upper Missouri, there exists a tract
of county named the Mauvaises Torres, or
'Bad Lands,' which at one time seems to
i hare been the bottom of an immense lake
i in which thousands of peculiar animals perj
ishod. It appears as it' the waters of this
lake were removed by some great convulsion
of nature, and the sediment indurated,
after which the whole country was swept
by an immense wave of water, which carried
away the soft parts of the straits, and
I let! the hiuler parts standing in a scries of
irregular prismatic cohunnar masses, frequently
capped with irregular pyramids,
extending from one or two hundred feet in
height. Viewed in the distance the rocky
piles resemble a massive city in ruins. The
valley is about 90 miles long and 30 feet
wide and some parts of it about 300 feet
below the level of the surrounding country.
So thickly are the natural towers studded
over the surface of this region, that the traveller
threads his way through deep confined
passages, which resemble some oi' the narrow
streets of the old towns on Coutinentiil
Europe. At the foot of these columns the
remains of the ancient animals which existed
thousands of years ago (long, it is said,
before man's advent upon this earth,) are
found in such abundance as to form of this
tract an extensive ceinctry of extinct animals.
This region was brought in notice
bv a few fossil remains nroetired tlnnnrrb
the agents of the American Fur Company,
and the Smithsonian Institute furnished
?200 to T. Criberton for exploring it. All the
remains of these ancient animals which
have been found arc completely petrified.
Some are very perfect specimens, others are
much broken, having the appearance of being
at one time subject to violent action.
They all belong to the classes 'mammalia,'
and 'turtles.' With a single exception, all
the mammalia belong to the great order
of hoofed animals, and a great number
of species have been brought to light.

existing ruminants, an exceedingly
aberrant form of the snme family, now extinct.
One fossil of a wild cat has been
discovered, and the valley abounds with
fossil turtles, It is altogether a wild and

The Washington correspondent of the
New York Ilerald, under date of lGth ult,
isays:
The Navy Department has issued rdura
to New York, New Orleans and Boston to
keep in-a state of preparedness certain steam
vessels chartered by government some two
weeks since to meet a hasty demand. Two
private steamers have been chartered bv trov
| eminent in New York, one in Boston, and
two in New Orleans. In the navy yards at
these several stations every thing is in ustate
of readiness to meet the demands from this
city, yet so quietly managed that but few are
in the secret. It is supposed that twentyfour
hours' notice would be all suficient to
get these vessels oft' on their missions.

some private expedition, will not be permitted

The Grapeshot, of notoriety, is understood
to be in tlie neighborhood of the Narrows,
freighted with her old cargo of muskets, &c.
The brig-of-war liainbridge is instructed to
"speak her," for what end can only bu guessed
at. These active preparations are all inado
with a view to Cuba. The telegraphic report
that reached here yesterday, of the exnedi
tiou having sailed from New Orleans, is not
believed in. Tlio government look upon it
as a ruse put forth by the leaders to get important
information of the force that would
be likely to meet the expedition, and of tho
material on hand by Concha to defeat it.
It is, however, believed that the filibusters"
designed taking immediate advantage of
the Cuban army's return to set sail for their
selected parts of the island, where, comparatively
speaking, they would bo likely to
meet with littl? opposing force, the first
aiarm Having proved a eouuierteit.
This new conceived military movement^
it' attempted, will prove a certain failure;
the government has its reliable informants
in every suspected- spot in the Union, and
no expedition will be allowed to leave without
encountering the full furce of the government.
It will turn out that a member
of the Cabinet, an ex-Senator, member of

be done with a gentleman wbo engages
the affections of a young lady, and then
leaves her?
Answer.?Bless liim, ami let him go.?
We always think, in such cases, that a
young lady lias abundant cause for congratulation,
and, instead of whining and
crying over "spiltnffectiou " lot her put on her
sunny smiles, and" endeavor to captivate a
more worthy beau. You may depend upon
it, that a man who has no more stability
of mind, or honesty of purpose, than to
act in this way to a young lady, is not worth
a tear of regret; on the contrary she should
be especially happy that she has so luckily
got rid of a person who, throughout his life,
in whatever he undertook, would unquestionably
exhibit the same unfixedness of purpose
and the same irresolution of mind.
Love is like every thing else ; a man who
is not to bo trusted in that, is very likely to
