TUESDAY MORNING, SEW.
Odd Ptiwwiair in Indiana —It appears. savs
the Lafayette Journal, by the las'. published report
of the Orand Lodge of Odd Fellows in Indian.*,
that H ere are under its jurisdiction 89 chartered j
s uliordinate Lodges In these Lodges, during tl.e j
six months ending with December, 1850, there was ,
paid for the relief of numbers and widowed fanrn- |
lies, and for the education of orphans, $5311. At
the time above named sanl Lodges reported an ag
gregate revenue of $40,739 20; number of con
tributing members, 3916: owraher of initiations
during preceding sis months, 352; number admit
ted by card. 111; deaths, 12, or only about one
per cent of the whole number. This, together
with the fact that there were during this term but-,
eight expulsions, speaks volumes for the tempe
ra:; and morality of the Order.
Far the B'mnrr.
TO MARTHA.
I think of thee when morning shineth.
Arrayed in‘ diamond dew-drops bright;
And when gray sandaled eve rCclineth
Upon the lap of dusky night.
When the fierce day-god’s burning fire
Baptizeth all the weary land—
When night displays her starry tire,
Thou art ever at my right hand !
Wiien o'er rule ocean's sleeping waters
The moon her lambent chain doth bind,
Or wnen old neptune’s wave-born daughters
Piay with the tresses of the wind !
When spring's first flowt-rs were wreathed 1
around me.
Or winter howled along the plains,
Thy presence like a spell hath bound me—
Thy presence held my soul in chains.
■ ,
I think of thee when lonely straying,
1 wander forth, sad, mournfully—
And when to Him :nv soul is praying,
That soul doth pause—to think of thee !
But pain and sorrow, grief and sadness.
May never more my spirit see;
For .thou hath wreathed inv soul in gladness.
And ever more I'll think of thee .’

forth a colt of any value, because it would pos

ply as well to other amnisls, I observed that i
spotted cow of the native breed produced her firs1
calf, whose sire was a deep red, of a similar coiu
to the male parent, and for live or six subsequent
years, although she was covered by a spotted,
brmdie, and a dark brown bull, yet her calve
were all of a deep red.
I made many similar observations at the time

purpose to refer to them except as it relates t<

physician lo the Aberdeen Royal Institute, saxs
“A young chesntit marc, seven-eights Arabian
belonging to the Earl of Morton, was covered u
!si6 by n quagga. which is a species of wild as
from Afr.ca, and marked soiTiewnat after the man
ner of a zebra. The mare was covered but one.
by the q iagga, and after a pregnancy of eievei
months and four days gave birth to a hybrid, wide I
bad d-stmct marks of the quagga in the shape o
its head, black bars on the legs, shoulders, &c
In 1817, ’18 and ’21, the same mare, (which ha.
in the meantime passed into the possession of Si
Gore Oaseley) was cohered by a very fine blacl
Arabian horse, and produced successively threi
foals tba' bore unequivocal marks of thcquagga.’
Bes nes the instance already quoted, there i
another similar case recorded: “A mare, belong
in; also to Sir Gore Ouseley, was covered by ;
zebra, and gave birth to a stnpxd hybrid. Tin
year following she was covered by a thorough-bre:
horse, and the next succeeding year by ari ithe
horse. Both the foais thus produced were striped
that is, partook of the characteristics of the zc
bra.”
In both these instances the- mare Lad produce:
offspring from males of a different species frou
themselves. Walker, Baker, and Halier stall
that they have made’ similar observations to m
own in regard to the ass and mare.
Mr, McGillivray gives two instances of simiia
results where mares h.’d only f>een covered b

several mares had bred from the horse Colonel
and the next year, although the foals had beei

were observed unequivocal marks of the hors

The Earl of Suffix-id bad a colt got by the hors

Mad Muuia?ar.
Under the head of Naval Items, we had oca
Sion to mention in the •' Albion,” three weeks ag
the circumstance of Lard Cochrane taking bis flu
ship, the Wellesley, through the Needles passage
W'e had not time, however, at the moment, toad
to the instances then quoted, that ol an Admin
or Captain, familiarly known three-Court hs_of
century ago as Mad Montague, of w hom we bav
heard ar. old officer relate that he once earned
line ut battle ship through the Needles with noth
mg set but hts siud<l,ng sails.
Two anecdotes of the same eraek-bramcd ind
Vid‘ia, we also call to mat, and doubt w in- •
they have ever been in pr.nt hitherto. Captai
Montague's ship was lying at Spilhead. and t.
wroie to the Admiralty asking permission to ptv
eced to London on urgent private aiTu.rs. Hat
u war • 111 then, an! Mil':,it t•• •’ till
nbsi a, ; so that the offi ;al reply rntimate-l It;
the Captain was “only at liberty to proceed win i
his barge eouidcam hun.” Two days alterwar
Mad Montague presenud himself at the levee i
the Kii.t Lord o! the .'.(’miralty, and was gn-ew
wi n “ How’s this, sir—did you not receive o,
ins:ructions "
•‘A ay, my Lord,” was the a. -wir. "and
• line* ia my barge—there sheas ” Mad HU .-itagi.
pointed to the window winch overlooks’ll tlweon
yard of toe Admiralty, and there sure enough ws
the Cap a a s barge set on wheels, with post holm
attach I, hut the crew all in their p ace.-,, wit
U«.<;ed oars, in true man id-war sty,.. It may 1
presumed that hit Lordship could not find it i
los hear: to gi.e the Captain a very a.vere repe
the knuckle*.
On another occasion, Mad Montague, who wi
knowu far an I wide through Portsmouth and Go
ju-ii. strolled into a barber's shop at om. of liu*
resorts of the amphitnous. Throwing himself in
a chau, and then pulling not a pist. 1 and cochti
it, be asked the barber if i*e knew him.
“ To be sure 1 do—-who dota l!" was the repl
“ Shave me then. 1 said the era k brained *e
dag. “ sud inmd what you're aboi t, f. r if yc
draw blroA), MI shoot you tbrongh toe bead.”
The barber went coolly to work, and perform,
the operation* w '.trout flinching us sfcelent -
struck by the fellow's collected manlier, the Ca
I tarn complimented him 'bflwn, asking him. bow :
ever, whether he did not feel afraid, stuce he knew I
: that his brain* would have been blown out, if his
> rnxor had chanted lo slip. “Afraid." returned
tbe barter, “ not n bit of it. sir; for, if ! had un ,
I fortunately drawn your honor’* blood, you msyi
j depend upon it / tooaiil km' f«i tratr tkroat!"
Ueltinsi .Married.
Some of those old writer* were curious fellows,
I and had strange ideas of matrimony, not at si! at
' tractive to n* oldbachoto*. It is t .id > f Sir John |
Moore, the father of the famous Sir-Thoitias. that
i he used to coin pare gett i ui; married to a man thrust- :
mg his hand into s hag which contained twenty!
! snake* and one eel; it was twenty to one he did ]
not catch the eel. We strongly suspect, from this
definition of matrimony, that Sir John at least
must have caught a snake. About a hundred
years after, Thomas Hasted, E*q.. fellow of New
College, Oxfbrd, penned the following epigram on
, his three wives;
Though marriage i*y some is reckoned a curse.
Three wives did 1 marry, for better or worse.
The first for her ,pers >a—the neat for her purse—
The third for a warming pan. dee.tress, and nurse.
The New York Atlas souk-time since related the
' story of a clergyman wb >ue tir.n wife was very rich,
hi*second very beautiful, and the third, whom he
married m hi* old age to nurse him and te his
, ho use-keeper, proved to be a perfect Xaolippe in

“ Pat” is oneof the greatest dogs out;rtrong as
a lion, but gentle as a lamb, fie leaves nothing
aiive upon which he is tairiy “set,” but he would
nut rutile the feather* of the smallest chicken, un
, bidden, for his right paw. He will drag the children
in a cart, as long as lie can drag himself, and never
utter a word of complaint; but woe betide the
, being who comes within his reach when duty calls
him to a sfrrnct mood. A very useful dog is
i • Pat." too. He wiit “carry and fetch” anything
intrusted to him, and makes himself very g< nerai
I j ly useful m the way of errand going. He divides
. his time between oneof our neighbors and a farm a
mile off, and saves many a journey hack and forth,
. of th se who w uld matte mure -fuss about it.—
The other day he was sent to the farm with a has
i ket, for eggs.
It was observed that he did not come bach so
, promptly as usuai, hut the circumstances excited
. no special attention. He came in at last looking
I as though nothing at all had happened. He was
■, giad to set the folks, a .1 appeared very much at his
. ease, perfectly satisfied with hrii.se;f, with no
. goading* of conscience to in-ir his happiness. In
the midst of his apparent hapiness, however he
i was m!< rrupted with the inquiry, "Pat, where are
i your eggs’” His tail fell about six degrees in
. staidly, and with a look perfectly iinfeligiilc, hi
turned and was off. Going tc a pile of timber riu.
far away, he found his basket of eggs, and bringing
, them home, made the best apology a dog count
, i make, and gave them into the hand-, of hi* ima
’ tress. ‘ >n inquiry, it was ascertained that ou his
iwsyhor.e he met some other dogs, and feeling a
[ little •xa ial, he put fus eg.s in a safe place, and
i stopped for soc ial chat with his friends, iiid*fina.ly
; went h me, forgetting to take his eggs along We
believe this is the firs; instance in which a dog hav
. I been shown to have ftrgatUn anything.

proposition came to the House it was strenuously
opposed by the 80 f hern or Dem<>cra:tc member*. 4
on the ground that ir was a stamp of royalty, and
calculated to won ml the feelings of republicans
