Crawford, Titk Sculptor.— ( lie latest new* Iron) Crawl.>rd, the great American sculptor, is that he vvill shortly leave Paris for London, where a surgical operation vvill he performed in the hope of b< in ; cured of big cancerous tumor by the loss of his eye. It he survives the operation he will pass from the care of his Lon don surgeon to this country where lie is ex pected in a few weeks. It is feared, however, that the case of Craw ford is without hope. The pressure of the tumor upon his brain has already caused para lysis. ilis lite may he spared until ho can again see his native land and look upon his works of art that are to adorn the national capital. rl bese works are now in process of completion at Washington. They are beauti ful and grand beyond comparison. The history of our country will be written in marble fig ures from its aboriginal state down to the pre sent time. The sculptor may not live to see his works completed, but his name will live forever. Upon the capital of his country will stand the noblest figures ever conceived bv an American mind, which, in all ages to come, will tell of the services of Crawford.—Louis ville Courier. Death of Joseph. F. Rrenant, esq.—It gives us great pain to be called upon to record the death of Joseph F. Rrenan, esq., editor of the Times, who expired at half-past eight, last evening, iu the 29th year of his age, leaving a wife and two small children to mourn his un timely loss. This sad intelligence will hardly lake any of his numerous friends by surprise. Rrought low some weeks since, by an unfavora ble turn of his malady, consumption, but few have lately entertained the belief in his ulti mate recovery. Mr. Brenan had been connected with the press of this city for about six years, during which time he had laid up an enviable repu tion as a public journalist. Possessing a genial fancy, an easy, flowing, sometimes brilliant style, his writing seldom failed to afford enter tainment to the reader. He will be sorely mis sed by his associate, and by a large number of friends to whom he had endeared himself by the gentleness of his manner.—JV. O. Picay une. From Porter’s Spirit of the Times. Charley’s Misfortunes; Or, how his Hat Troubled him—A Tale of the West BY HAZEL GREEN, Esy. “When I was a young lad, just beginning to think about the girls,” said Charley, “I was monstrous pious, and went to meeting every Sunday; but I have since come to the conclu sion, that it was not as much for the concern I felt tor the “good of my soul,” as it was for the sake of gazing about the room, and think ing to myself which girl was tiie prettiest, and which one I would rather marry. Well, one day I singled out a girl who I thought eclipsed all creation for beauty; in fact, I was soon head-over-heels in love with her. But a few minutes sufficed for me to form a resolution to sec her home, to pop the question, and, if possible, to strike a bargain immediate ly. I was all in a tremble. The sermon seemed to be a week long, and very uninterest ing. Many, no doubt* were praying for their “ neighbors, and their neighbors’ children,” but with me it was quite different—I was praying for the meeting to break. At length the meeting did break, and I broke with it—for my hat; but, to my surprise and mortification, l could not find it until after the object of my affections had gotten so far the start of me, that it would have required quite an effort to bar e overtaken her. Besides, there was auother consideration—my hat had been underfoot, and was so badly soiled, that I was rather ashamed to bo seen with it on.— Taking all these things into consideration, I resolved to wait for the next opportunity. From that time 1 was a changed chap. [ could think of nothing but the girl I had seen at meeting, except it was that of persuading the “governor” to buy me a new suit of Sun day clothes. The old lady sided with me in this last particular, and between us both, we succeeded in carrying our point. i was rigged out in style—cloth coat, satin vest, cassnnero pants, and, to crown all, a beaver that cost five dollars. *■ This wull tix tilings,” thought I; “could I but see her now, 1 might set her down as mine.” In a few evenings, there was prayer meet ing at “Union Meeting-house,” and I, with my new fixings,"wended my way thither; not, however, until my mother had given me much good advice concerning the management of my new rigging—more particularly the hat, as I had, but a sho^t time before, got nay old one crushed up at meeting. 1 had not been in the meeting-house long, before her whom I most anxiously expected, came in; ami from thence until the services were concluded, 1 was in a sea of trouble, lest some fellow should cut me out, or something of the kind. _ As soon as the congregation wfis dismissed, I “yoked her,” and off we started. When we reached her home the sun was just setting, and so to be mannerly, her old dad asked me to “stay all night.” I had no objections, and alter supper was over, I told Betty (for that was the gill’s name,) that I'd like to chat with her a little more. She had no objections, but said we must go to the kitchen, as the old folks didn’t like to be disturbed by a light in the “big room,” when they were to bed. To all this I consented, ol course, and so we were soon on the very bestot terms. I should have been extremely happy, but for one cause—the stamp ot plenty, iti the lorrn oi grease, was abun dantly impressed upon everything in the room, excepting the chairs upon which we sat, and consequently l was much troubled about mv new hat. What should I di* with it? I did not want to have grease upon it—no, that would never do! Finally, 1 resolved to keep it on my head, judging that to be the safest place. Being thus relieved of my greatest embarrassment, I went about the work of court ing in real earnest. After many tine things had lieen said, and a marriage contract had been partially entered into, 1 proposed a kiss. You maybe sure gho refused, but 1 insisted—a scuffle ensued, which lasted until she was completely exhausted._ Being unable to hold out longer, she turned up her pretty lips, and said: “ It you must kiss me—here, but don’t you ever undertake such a thing again—you brute.” I stooped over to perform the operation, w hen, all of a sudden, 1 telt an unusual light ness about my head. Before I had time to think whether I was going to faint or not, I heard a kind ot splashing about my feet, and casting my eyes downward, I saw—^reat Hea vens! what did I see? There lay mv five dol lar beaver, completely immersed in a filthy compound of dish-water, cucumber peals, “titter” skins, and the lord knows what be sides, that had been accumulated in a tub, un der the fascinating cognomen of “swill.” This was a predicament for you—what should 1 do? It Betty had observed it, the matter would not have been so bad; but sho had not—could I tell her? No, Heaven for bid! At first I thought of lifting it out, but imagining the spectacle it would [.resent, my courage failed me. “ But then,” reasoned 1, II she will be sure to see it ere long, and then how she will blush. Already she is looking at me, as if she is wondering w hy I don’t kiss her—perhaps I had better not stay any longer;” and, suiting the action to the word, I made a leap for the door, and was otf like a comet.— From thence all was darkness, all was confu sion, until I found myself at home—bare-head ed—receiving a raking fire from the old man and the old woman at the same time. This is bad enough to think of, but it is not the worst. There is one thing that now rings in my eats, and will continue to do so as long as 1 live_it is the last words of Betty. Poor thing, suj> posing that I had taken offence at her resis tance, she called afier me as I shot out at the door: “ Oh, Charley! come back, I was only ia fuu —come back, do! Oh, Charley!” An Eagle and his Quill. A fine specimen of our glorious national bird, measuring G feet 10 inches from tip to tip and weighing over nine pounds, was shot on the 5th of last month at Gill in Massachusetts, bv a Mr. Martin Kenny, a staunch democrat, who did not consider what he was doing until it was too late. Since the result of his shot it is said he has worn a solemn expression of countenance! A gentleman took the liberty of forwarding one of the eagle’s quills to Mr. Buchanan with an accompanying production, of which the following is a copy: The “ PEASANT BARD” to JAMES BUCHANAN, by the grace of God and the will of patriots, President of the United States. [With the tjuill of an Eagle.] Now. like to tire my heart is stirred! Plume of my country’s glorious bird, Fail not to trace the living word, The glowing line; And deeper be the debt incurred, 1 owe the nine. That living word,—what shall it be! The spirit saith, " Write Liberty!” The glowing line,—bond of the free,— “ And Union, ever!” Ay, and forever! curs’d be he The twain would sever. How, since the fathers fell asleep, Wild faction rages like the deep! The sires of ’76 would weep Her useless battle; Their very bones in slumber leap, And grimly rattle! O. never shall this pen invite To Discord's deeds, and Faction’s fight, But. guided by a hand of might, A mind of power, The patriot’s path of truth shall light In vlarkest hour. And there is one to whom I owe it, V Who thus can guide it,—well I know it. On thee, my Chieftain. I bestow it; And am. sir, duly, A ploughman, patriot, and poet. And. yours most truly, Jusiaii D. Cannino. A Just Sentence Pronounced.—Says th« Louisville Democrat: “ When Know-Noth ings seized, with unholy hands, upon the Wash ington monument, they proclaimed thus: Th« sum ($1,000,000) must be raised by the council of our order, or we must suffer indelible disgrao# and become a by-word. ” Well, the sum is not raised, and the directors have scandalously abused their trust. Let this sentence pronoun ced in advance be executod.
