I believe, captain,’ suit! Uie doctor. I never
told you my adventure with a wunmu at njy
boarding bouse, when i was attending the lec
tures.’
• No. let’s have it,’ replied a short, tlahl)%tiii
man about filty, with nervous temperament, and
a very red luce.
•1 boarded in a house where there were no
lemales except the landlady and an old colored
cook— 1
The captain, by way of encouraging him to
go on, said ‘ \Vell.’
• J often felt that want of female society to
(■often the severe labors of deep study, and dis
pel the enui to which 1 wan subject.
•Well.’
•One evening, after listening to a long lecture
on physical anatomy, and after dissecting a large
negro, fatigued in body and mind, 1 went to my
lodgings— ’
•'Well.’
I placed the light on the table, and com
menced undressing. I had already got my coal
oil. when my attention was attracted to a dress
•Hid a (piaiitity of petticoats lying on a chair near
the bed,’
•Well."
‘ And a pair of beautiful small shoes and stock
ings on the floor. Of course 1 thought it strange,
and was about to retire, but then 1 thought as it
was my room 1 had, at least, a right to know
who was in my bed.’
‘ Exactly so,’ said the captain.
‘So I took the light, went softly to the bed,
and, with a trembling hand, drew aside the cur
tains. Heavens, what a sighi! A young girl—
-1 should say an angel—of about eighteen, was
in there asleep.”
• Well ."
‘As I gazed upon her, F thought I had never
before seen anything half so beautiful. From
underneath a little night-cap, rivaling the snow
in whiteness, fell astray ringlet over a neck and
shoulders of alabaster.’
‘\S ell !’ said the excited captain.
* Never dtd I look upon a bust more perfectly
formed; 1 took hold of the coverlid aud softly
pulled it down.’
‘ Ilf///’ said the captain, ‘make haste.’
‘ She had on a night dress, buttoned up before,
but softly 1 opened the two first buttons.’
* WKt.i.!! ’ said the captain, * how now ?’
‘And then, ye gods, what a sight to gaze upon
—a Hebe —pshaw, words fail! Just then —’
‘ WELL!!!’ said the captain.
* 1 thought I was taking a mean advantage of
her, so 1 covered her up, seized my coat and
boots and went and slept in another room.’
‘IT’S? A LIE." shouted the captain, jumping
up and kicking over his chair, ‘ITS A LIE!’
certainly!’
Female Women- —The editor of the Spring
field Republican should be summoned to appear
at the bar ol the next Woman's Eights Conven
tion, for saying such things as the following.
Hear him :
“ We respect, admire and love a female wo
man. We admire her in the beauty of her per
son, her moral presence and position ; we re
spect her simple truthfulness and innocence,
and we love her as the embodiment of the high
est claims and sweetest attributes of humanity.
But a male woman, who can bear ? We cannot
read ol monster meetings, in which women per
form the leading parts ; of lectures on the sub
ject of marriage, to promiscuous audiences, by
female tongues, and of the perambulating female
spouters who go about the country, wi.hout an
involuntary emotiou of disgust. Many of these
women are mothers, who have families of tender
age at home, and husbands who should have
tender heads. Home duties forsaken, and the
misguided mistresses go about teaching other
people their duties! What comfortable wives
they must be ! What kiuc aud assiduous mothers!
How they must hallow a home that is too small
to hold them! Gods of War! We would as
soon live with a hyena or a steam engine. Don’t
come this way, we l>eij of von.”
CF 3 * Paddy was suddenly taken sick with a

A physician was called m, who alter examinin' 1
into the case, gave directions to the person in
attendance as to how much, and how often he
should give to the patient the medicine (?) he
would leave with him, saying, “you may give
him 2 drachms every three hours until he is re
lieved,” and then left. Pat overhearing the con
versation, could scarcely contain himself, and as
soon as the doctor was out of the room, exclaim
ed, “By the powers an’that’s a first-rate doc

towl’d yer to give me two drams every three

Sir John Franklin. —We have only one other
communication to notice, and that is of so curi
ous a nature that we canuot pass over it. It is
a letter from Tromose, dated the 18th of Sep
tember last, stating that the ships from Spitsber
gen have brought home a number of reindeer
skins with cuts (slits) in their ears. To account
for this peculiarity, it is conjectured that the
slits were made by Franklin's party, w ho caught
the deer at the north of Spitzbergen, and libera
ted them thus marked for the purpose of creat
ing a chain of communication with parties at the
South. We confess that this explanation appears
to us mure ingenious than probable.— Athautum.

GP“ The Czar ut Russia owns twenty-two

The following extract from a speech deliver
ed in the California Senate, by Frank Soule, is
touchingly beautiful The subject was a bill
authorizing women to act as sole traders. There
are married men out of California, as well as in
it, who may look in the glass and see them
selves;
“ When I reflect upon the conduct of many
married men in California—their faithlessness
to every vow which they made at the alter how
c -mpletely they fail in the performance of their
duties—how virtuous and industrious, faithful
and patient women are imposed upon by worth
less brutes of husbands, as great tyrants at home
as diunkiirds and debauchers abroad my re
spect for the sex prompts me to do all within
my power to protect her right and seoure her
happiness.
1 love woman, I have loved her all my life,
and dying hoj.e to be faithful to the same high
and inspiring sentiment. For amid all the va
ried scenes, temptations, struggles and hopes of
existence, one star, brighter than all others, has
lighted and guided me onward ; if I ever had
any high and noble ambition, the exciting ener
gy has been in the approving smile coming from
the eye of woman. And 1 judge her influence
is thus upon others. Gentle in her affections,
yet mighty through her influence, her medium
rule is as powerful as the ballot box, and she
only needs the protection of law against those
vv ho have no law in their habits and propensi
ties. She has lulled me from my boyhood with
the soft and winning influence of her virtues aud
beauty.
1 remember my first love ; my baby affections
at four years of age. I have been in love nearly
every mouth since—save the dark and raylesss
days and years which succeeded the desolate
hearth and made the heart too desolate. And
never, sir, while J remember my mother, long
since in the grave—l remember the night when
she died never while 1 recollect my sisters
and the abuses which might have been theirs—
never while 1 hold in memory one other—aud
her memory is ail that is left to me—shall I re
fuse to give my voice and my influence, and my
vote, lor any measure necessary to protect and
cherish the w eaker and better portion of crea
tion against the oppression, neglect or abuse of
my own sex. I hope the hill may pass.”
A Startling Picture.—The London Times
thus describes the hapless condition of thousands
ol young females who drag out a miserable exis
tence in the great Metropolis. The fate of the
poor fragile creatures here desdribed is horri
ble :
‘‘From 6 o’clock till 11 it is a stitch, stitch.
At 11 a small piece of dry bread is served to
each seamstress, hut still she must stitch on. At
1 o’clock 20 minutes are allowed for dinner—a
slice of meat and a potato, with a glass of toast
and water to each workwoman. Then again to
work —stitch, stitch, until 5 o'clock, when 15
minutes are again allow ed for tea. The needles
are then set in motion once more, stitch, stitch,
until 9 o’clock, when 15 minutes are allowed
Inf supper,—a piece ol dry bread and cheese,
and a glass of beer. From 9 o’clock at night un
til 1. 2 and 3 o’clock in the morning, stitch,
stitch ; the only break in this long period being
a minute or two—just time enough to swallow a
cup ol strong tea, which is supplied, lest the
young people should ‘‘ feel sleepy.” At 3 o’clock
A. M. to bed ; at 6 o’clock A. M. out of it again
to resume the duties of the following day.
“ Even during the few hours allotted to sleep,
should we not rather say to a feverish cessation
from toil ?—their miseries continue. They are
cooped up in sleeping pens, ten in a room,
which would perhaps be sufficient for the ac
comniodation of two persons. Not a word of
remonstrance is allowed, or is possible. The
seamstress may leave, no doubt, but what awaits
them on the other side of the door ?—starvation,
it they be honest—if not, in all probability, pros
titution and its consequences. It is idle to use
any further mystification in this matter. The
scenes of misery we have described exist at our
own doors, aud in the most fashionable quarters
nt luxurious Loudon. It is in the dress-making
and millinery establishments of the ‘ West End’
dial the system is steadily pursued. The con
tinuous labor is bestowed upon the gay garments
in which the ladies of England love to adorn
themselves. It is to satisfy their whims and ca
prices that their wretched sisters undergo these
days and nights of suttcring and toil.
Charles Wesley thus felicitously uses a
pretty similitude:
Here in this body pent,
A pilgrim sad I roam.
And nightly pitch my tent
A day’s march nearer home.
And unconsciously thus suggests Longfellow’s
incomparable “ Poem” with its concluding stan
za—the climax of perfection :
And the night shall be filled with music,
And the cares that infest the day
Shall fold their tents like the Arabs,
And as silently steal away.
And, speaking of Night, here is a “ Good
Night” from She i ley ;
Gootl night! ah no ! that hour is ill
Which severs those it should unite;
Let us remain together still—
Then it will be good night.
Retenge. —The following is from “ Revenge”
—a new novel by the author of the “ Smiling
Axe,” and the “ Sanguinary Crowbar —“ His
eyes were ript from their sockets, and melted
lead poured in—and the fiend yelled again :
‘Ha! Tophet’s furies ! wretch! fiend! demon!
blood! daggers! frenzy! parricide! fraticide!
marticide! suicide! murder! villain! pirate!
robber! rascal! scoundrel!—Revenge!! Ha!
ha !—he ! he !—ho ! ho !—oh ! oh !o —o —o! !!’
and he died.”
Timely Preparation. —“ John,” said an an
gry parent to his sou, who had committed a mis
deed, “John, go to the next room and prepare
yourself tor a severe flogging.” The boy de
parted, and when his parent had finished the let
ter he was writing and sought the offending
youth, he was surprised at the swollen appear
auee of the young rascal’s back. “What does
this mean ?” he asked ; ” what is on your back ?”
“A leather apron,” replied John, “three dou
ble. You told me to prepare myself for a hard
flogging, and 1 did the best I could!”
The hard-set features of the father’s counte
nance relaxed, as also did the muscles of the
hand which grasped the whip, and he let John
off", “for that once,” with a gentle admonition.
Religion —There are those to whom a sense
of religion has come in storm and tempest; there
are those to whom it has summoned amid
scenes of revelry and idle vanity; there are
those, too. who have heard its ‘‘still small
voice” amid rural leisure and placid retirement.
But perhaps the knowledge which cansetb not
to err, is most frequently impressed upon the
mind during the season of affliction ; and tears
are the softening showers which cause the seed
of beaveu to spriug up in the human heart.
Scott.
“ Papa, what makes mother kiss yon so
much?” “Why.it is because she loves me,
my little daughter.” “ Well, theu I guess she
loves the Doctor, too, for she kissed him a heap
of times when he was here to see Jim t’other

Wimss.
The Bachelen Bridal—.A Parady.
Not a laugh was beard nor a joyous note
Fur our friend to the bridal we harried;
Not a wit discharged bis farewell shot
At the bachelor just to be married.
We married him quietly to save bis fright,
Our heads from the sad sight turning;
And we sighed as we stood by the lamp's dim
light.
To think be was no more discerning. *
To think that a bachelor, free and bright,
And shy of the girls as we found him,
Should here by the altar, at dead of night
Be caught by the snare that bound him.
Few and short were the words we said,
Though we heartily ate of the cake;
Then escorted him homefrom the scene of dread,
And thought how awfully he’d shake.
We thought as we hollowed his lowly bed,
Of the birch, the beech, and the willow,
How the shovel and tongs would break o’or his
bead.
And the tears he would shed on his pillow.
Says he, “ They will talk of their friend who has
gone,
And every old bach will upbraid me,
And nothing I'll seek if they’ll let me sleep on,
’Neath the coverlet, just as they’ve laid me.’’
But half of our heavy task was done,
’Ere the clock tolled the hour for the other.
And we left, with the hope that the fate he had
won
Would never be won by another.
Slowly and sadly we marched us down,
From the top of the uttermost story,
Ami we never have heard from, or seen the poor
man
Whom we left, not alone, but in his glory.
‘ Virtue is the highest proof of understanding,
and the only solid basis of greatness.’—Ben
Johnson.
• Virtue is that quality in our actions by which
they are fitted to do good to others or to prevent
their harm.’—Rutherford.
• There can be no happiness without virtue.’
—Seneca.
‘The Christian religion hath ascertained the
precious quantity of virtue necessary to salva
tion.’—Palsy.
‘An action, though honest, is not therefore tru
ly virtuous, unless it be out of choice, and with
a good will.’—Cicero.
• Virtue dwells not upon the lip or the tongue,
but in the inmost temple of a just and purified
heart.’—Seneca.
‘ Virtue presented singly to the imagination
or the reason, is so well recommended by its
graces and strongly supported by arguments,
that a good man wonders how they can be bad.’
—Dr. Johnson.
‘ It is utterly impossible there should be any
virtue unless it is disinterestedness.’—Cicero.
‘ Virtue is beauty.’—Shakspeare.
‘ Virtue makes men on earth famous, in their
graves illustrious, and in Heaven immortal.’—
Cliilo.
‘ Such as have virtue always in their month
and neglect its practice, are like a harp, which
emits a sound pleasing to others, while itself is
insensible to the music.’—Diogones.
‘ Every thing great is not always good, but all
good things are great.’— Demosthenes.
‘ Virtue, the law and ordinance of men, is the
rule of a wise man.’—Antisthenes.
‘Virtue is bold, and goodness never fearful.’
—Shakspeare.
Panama. — On the night of the 16th May, we
were visited with a heavy rain, which lasted for
an hour or two, and was followed by a stiff
breeze from the southward, that by ten o’clock
had increased into quite a gale. This lasted all
night, and the greater portion of the following
day. So violent was it that the departure of the
steamer Golden Gale was necessarily postponed
until to-day.
The wet season having thoroughly set in, we
now have daily heavy rains. For the past week
or two, the travel has been entirely across the
Cruces road—that to Gorgona having become
impassable.
The average price for passage mules between
Panama and Cruces is $18; and for the trans
portation of baggage, the average charge is about
17 cents per pound.— Panama S/ar, May ] Blk
“And Pi'rr ’ns, ’ns True.”— The Philadel
phia Sun has this paragraph :
A private letter of recent date expresses the
conviction that one-half of the youug men who
visit California are ruined in consequence of the
neglect of friends to keep up a familiar corres
pondence with them, thereby leaving them un
restrained by home influence, to be drawn into
temptation, and ultimate disregard and forget
fulness of all social and moral obligations. The
suggestion has undoubtedly much truth on its
side.
The Palmer Journal man thus winds oft'
an affecting notice of the death of his Shanghai
rooster:
“ His voice, when heard amidst the crowing
of other roosters, wag like the trombone in an
orchestra of violins, or the bass of rumbling
thunder amid the hum of a dozen spinning
wheels :
Farewell, faithful servant, a lasting farewell;
From thy fate let all roosters take warning—
No more will thy voice in a long and loud swell.

half-past five o’clock in the morning.
A Motel Valedictory. — The most singular
valedictory address on record was delivered by
Sidney Smith to a young English missionary
who was about to proceed to Van Diemau's
Land. It was as follows:
“ Farewell, my dear friend, farewell! You go
to a country where it is the custom of the abo
riginals to have a clergyman on their sideboards
every morning for breakfast; but let us hope—
let us earnestly hope —that yon trill prove very in
digestible to the savage who eats you ’’
Big Lump.—A speciman was exhibited to ns,

near German Bar, Middle Yuba, and is valued
at $2OOO.
