A Fivtu. Kjvwirr.—At the lead of the'list of the Knights of the Legion of Honor, lately treated by the President of the Punch Republic. k a widow by the nance of Bruion, who was bom in ITU, and is now an officer in the Hotel des Invali ded where she ha* lived for the last fifty-two year*, enjoying the esteem ar.t? veneration of the o'd com panions in aim-. She was the daughter, sister, and wife of military men, who died in active ser vice in Italy. Her husband died in Ajaccio in f 1791, after seven years' service. In 1792, at the age of 21, she entered the I2d regiment of Infantry, ! in which her husband had server), and made her self so remarkable by her honorable conduct, that shf was permitted to continue in the service not ' withstanding her sex. She was attached to the regiment several years, and performed seven r am paigns as private soldier, corporal, sergeat, and ' sergeant-major. She was wounded at the setgeof Calvi, and being rendered incapable of service, was admitted into the Hospital des Invalidcs. In October, lt*22, she was promoted to the rank of i Eustgo. j &' The wildest of on American annexationists ; have not yet conceived half of the “destiny” that ! the English press assigns to us. Cuba they give | up, taking it for granted that, fairly or foully, we are to grasp it. Next, they protest that Hayti and Jamaica will become ours. Being temporarily i checked in our western march by the ocean barrier, * one paper says we will now run down the latitude, and take every thing as far south as Panama.— Another paper says that we have fixed an evil eye on Japan—sending out a fleet to threaten her into commercial intercourse. Yet another winds up an article on tbe character of our population on the Pacific, by saying that “some more fortunate > Aaron Burr, or more sagacious Lopes, will plant ! his standard on the shores of China.” It is to be I hoped that the British will not eutirely exhaust the East Indies before we have a chance there.—Bo* i timnr* Sun. < KiiL Roaus.—A writer in tire Vicksburg Sentinel is urging tie State of Mississippi to give active aid to railroads within her limits. There are four lead* | in? lines that have been canvassed in that State and approved. Three of these are partly within the State; the fourth, which is the Memphis and 1 Charleston Railroad, will run almost entirely through the State of Tennessee. Of the other three, one, the Vicksbuig, Jackson and Montgome ry toad, crosses the State Iron east to west, and the other two are intended to traverse the State from north to south. One of these is the Mobile and Ohio road, and the other is the Jackson and 1 New Orleans road. The writer proposes that the public lands given by the general government for j internal improvements should be appropriated to i the purchase of railroad iron, to be laid down on ; those portions of these roads which lie within the State. He calculates that the State will, by the end of this fiscal year, have accumulated a surplui of oue million of dollars in the treasury, derived from the appropriation to her own use of the five hundred thousand acres of land dented from the federal government; and that being a trust fund for purposes of internal improvement, the State 12 under an'obligation to apply it to such uses. The plan suggested is that the State should furnish the iron to all these roads as fast as the grading and superstructure is ready for potting it down; requir ing that private capital shall bring the works u[ to that degree of progress. The contribution qf the State to be treated as a donation, or stock sub i scriptwn or loan, as may be decided on, when the ' principal is settled; with precautions to enable tnt State to a*oid imposition and reclaim the sum in | case the enterprise should fail. The project is a bold one, and will, if adopted, have a very decisive influence in favor of rail *oad improvements—some of which are of much direcl interest to the city of NevNfilesns.—I’toiyuiu. Shout Srutona—Oooa t’w/iiH.—luil^e Dun can, in a recent address delivered at Clarksburg, Va , on ha return as commissioner from the great London Exhibition, thus refers to his visit to the British iiar',lament and the courts of Justice ; J. was present on one occasion in the House ol ! Commons, when a measure came up, which involv ed the whole financial policy of the government, -and the state and condition of all the industrial clas ses. It was debated by the prime minister, Lord John Russel; the chancellor of the exchequr, Mr. D’Israeli; and a great many other of the leading members. The debate opened at su o'clock and closed at 12, when the vote was taken and the question settled. Thus, in a debate of six hours, a great measure was disposed of, after a discussion so foil, that every one present was satisfied that ai! had been said, on both sides, that the subject re quired. Yet a measure, of a similar character, in the American Congress, could not have beeh din posed of under six week’s constant discussion. '1 was forcibly struck with the close adherence of the English speakers to the subject of debate. There was nothing extraneous or redundant; no flourish or ornament; but that which seemed to character ise thespeak-ug particularly, was their plain, prac tical good sense, snd an ability for condensation. Yet they are in some resiiecis, not good speakers. Their manners are cold, without action at fluency. They hesitate sad stammer, and frequently seem to he at • .0*1. In the eourtri of justice the tame brevity and condensation prevails, in the speeches of the Bar rulers, that distinguished the speaking in the House of Commons; and the Judges, who se-.ictd to be a learned, dignified and hard working set of men, deliver their ..ptwions so concisely ^nd veljo dis tinct apd y-cat, jhat the m,a ,s of tip* most ordinary p-rsons j/r-sent tan understand them.” Were this example adopted in the Am-Tt'ea Con gress and American Courts, it would be of the must inestimable value to the administration of govern ment and of justice. : , "Do you tai. a newspaper'” ... •What oner “Any one I esa lay rav hands cm.” The shove, though food, is not quite so good as its original. “Take a wife, Tom,”a*id Richard Brinsley Sheri dan. h» hi* wihlsoo Turn, the father of Mrs. Morton, i “take a wife and reform." “With all my heart,” replied Tom, innocently, > “wkc*e wife shall l take."* Srnuinwi or the Nnmocm Cdwroat.—At a distance of about one-bail mile from the village of the Shakers in Canterbury, N.

When the melted mass bods, the fire is i " be so regulated as to keep the butter at a gent! boil, for about two hours more the stirring ben j continued, but not necessarily so frequent as befor i The vessel is then to be removed from the fire an j set aside to cool and settle, s.ill gradually; U> . pr -vest of cooling is supposed to require about tw j hours.

Thia feed is in perfection at a season of the year when the poweTsof the horses are often taxed the most, by hard and rowtant labor and also by the pcrtpifatiun freely induced by heat: and, as frequently oats cannot readily be obtained at this time, at any price, this addition to the variety of food for the horses se on especially worthy of at tention. iJy giving the corn in this manner, the necessity of turning the horse out to grass will be obviated; and mv experience for some years past has proved to me.

A Nrw SwniMixii JKacwiv*.—A Hans letter of the tat inst., in the Washington Republic, says: “ There have been some interesting trials made in the Seine, of a new swimming machine and life preserver called the togurur. Th^beauty of this invention is that it doea not in the least embarrass the movement* of the wearer, who may take any position he tikea, and may be snre of staying in it. Thus a person maywalk in the water, stand up, .sinking perpendicularly a little below the wa.st, drink, eat, smoke, sleep. With the common life preserver—a Wow-up girdle, blow-up. indeed, by the new discovery—the wearer was as often drown ed as saved. For if it became entangled in the feet the head at once sank, and thus suffocation <ri> inevitable. But the simplicity of 'he new contrivance is such that a man may arm huoseli with his gun and his powder horn, take a walk ol a mile or soin some lake where the shooting is good, and make a dreadful havoc among the wild ducks of the locality. On Sunday last a party ol experimenters walked a couple of miles in the Seine, accompanied by a crowd of spectators on the two banks, a fleet of small boats, and a brasj band. The invention really looks as if it might make a revolution in navigation.” The shop Girls of Pans.
