" touching picture from the last
' lUeak House," is not limited in
r, ' n . on to the latitude of London. —
T ', 3 , ,rr many mothers in this city, (ray*
5 ' :f y York* Times) whose feelings and
ln# " would not be unlike those herein
language
' •\ij who have we got here to night?" says
M-'rV-*el, opening another door, and glar
' his bull's eye. "Two drunken
and two women? The men are
" r i enough," turning back each sleeper's
.' fo !r. his face to look at him. "Are these
your ;"od men, niv dears ?"
' VfF sir," returns one of the women.—
"They are our husbands."
•Brickitiakers, eh?"
••\Vhat arevou doing here? You don't be
:nff lo Lou joo.
••No sr. belong to Hertfordshire.'
• Whereabouts in Hertfordshire ?"
•St. Aibans."
"Come up on the tramp?"
•We waiked up yesterday. There's no
wor ii iio»n with ua at present; but we have
done no good by coming here, aud shall do
tone I expect."
• Thai's not the way to do much good,
s *\s Mr. Bucket, turning his bead in the
direction of the unconscious figures on the
ground.
It an'?, indeed," replies the woman with a
sigh. ' Jenny and me knows it full well."
"The room, though two or three feet higher
than the door, is so low that the head of the
tallen of the visitors would touch the black
ened ceiling it" lie stood upright. It is offen
ce to ciery sense; even the gross candle
burns pale and sickly in the polluted air.—
Th're ate a couple cf benches, and a higher
bench by »ay of table. The men lie asleep
where tney stumbled down, but the women sit
bv the candle. Lying in the arms cf the wo
nian who has spoken is a very young child.
"Why, what age do you call that little
creature?'' .'ays Bucket. "It looks as if it was
born \esitrdnv." He is not at all rough about
it; aulas he turns his light gently on the in
tan'. Mr. Snugshy is strangely reminded of
another infant, encircled with light that he has
seen in pictures.
He is not three weeks old yet, sir," says the
woman.
"Is lie vour child ?"
"Mine."
The other woman, who was bending over it
• hen they came in, stoops down again, and,
ki->~es i: as it lies asleep.
• Vou seem a? fond of it as if you were the
:;,oshi r youi.self,'" says Mr. Bucket.
"I was the mother of one like it, master, and
it died."
Ah, Jenny, Jenny !" says the other woman
to her; "uetK r so: much better to think of dead
tiifcn ithve, Jenny! Much belter!"
"Why,you an I !such an unnatural woman,
1 hope," returns Bucket, sternly, "as to wish
your o» n child dead V
' God knows you are right, master," she re
turns. "I am not. I'd stand between it and
death, with my own life, if I could, as true as
anv pretty lady."
' Then don't talk in that wrong manner," says
Wr. Bucket, mollified again. "Whydoyoudo
it?"
• It's brought into my head, master," returns
the woman, her eyes filling with tear?, "when
1 look down at the child lying so. If it was
never to wake no more, you'd think me mad, I
should take on so. i know that very well. I
was with Jenny when she lost her's—warn't I
Jennv?—and 1 know how she grieved. But
look round you, at this place; look at them:"
glancing at the sleepers on the ground. ''Look
at the boy you're waiting for, who's gone out
to do me u good turn. Think of the| children
that yoiir business lays with often and often,
and that you see grow up!"
"Well, well," Hays Mr. Bucket, "you train
him respectable, and he'll be a comfort to you,
and look after you in your old age, you know."
"1 mean to iry hard," she answers, wiping
her ejfs. ' ilut I've been a thinking, being
o»er ined to-night, and not well with the ague,
c: all the many things that 11 coine in his way.
My master will be against it, and he'll be beat,
and made to f-ar his home, ant!, perhaps, to
stray wild, if I work for him ever so much,
and ever so hard, there's no one to help me:
and if he should be turned bad. 'spite rf all I
could do, and the time should come when I
shouldsit by him in his sleep made hard and
changed, an't it likely I should think of him
as he lies in mv lap now, and wish he had died
as Jenny's child died."
"I'here, there!" says Jenny. "Liz, you're
tired and ill. Let me take him."
In doing so she displaces the mother's dress,
but quickly re-adjusis it over the wounded and
brui»ed bosom where the baby has been lying.
"It's ray dead child," says Jenny, walking
up and down as she nurse.", "that makes me
love this child so dear, and it's my dead child
that makes her love it so dear, too, as even to
think ot iis being taken awey froin her now.
While she thinks that, I think what fortune
would I give to huve my darling back. But
we mean the same thing, if we knew how to
say if, us two mothers do< sin our poor hearts!"
Mr. Snagsby blows his nose, and coughs his
cough tf sympathy.
The Fakir of Siva. —The following
amusing occurrence is related by an up-river
paper:
We were standing at the counter of a bank
ing-house in this city, the other morning,
when n genteel little man entered and inquir
ed of :he gedate teller if he received cash on
deposit.
"O, ye*," he replied.
''Well. I've got a small amount that I desire
to deposit. '
The siiunger now counted out twenty ea
gle?, and gure them into the teller's hand.
"llolJ oti to 'em," says the stranger. The
teller turned again to the counter, his face
pallid with Tear and blank with astonishment
—looked up, (iown, around—his eyes sticking
out, his mouth wide open,
"What's the mattei?" said the stranger,
coolly; "are you sick?"
"The m-o-u-e-y-'a c-o-n-e!*' he gasped, trem
lline.
"<«one!" shouted the stranger, "where, in
the name of lieelgebub, is it gone? this gentle
man saw me give it to you."
"I duJo-don't know'," he stammered.
'•Well, you'd better know," replied the
stranger, "you're responsible for it."
"He's got it in his pocket," said a grufl voice
under the counter; "I seed him hide it." Con
sternation and despair now spread over the
face of the teller.
"(iive rue back the money," said the stran
ger; "i'li iind .some safer plate tJian this."
"I've not got it," the teller replied.
-He lies!" again shouted the voice beneath
the counter; "make him pull out his handker
chief." The teller did so and down rolled the
twenty eagles on the floor. Gathering them
-up, he iiandod litem to lite straoger, who quiet
' ly disappeared through the aow congregated
THE DAILY DISPATCH.
crowd The mystery was now solved, as one
of the bystanders burst into a loud laugh, and
informed us that the stranger was no other than
the"Fakir of Bi\a," the conjuror and ventrilo
quist.— A*. O. Crescent.
A Quanuary.—A man returned to this city
last Monday, after an absence of four years,
expecting again to taste the joyaof home and
wedded life, and found, to his surprise and
horror, his beloved had become anothtr'a wife.
In this instance, the lady had not proved frail,
but had been deceived by reports of the death
of her absent lord, when it appeared that
somebody else of the same name had been put
under the sod cf the cold regions. This case
is strictly true, and presents a fine field for
legal argument as to the proper ownership of
the female, which will, however, be obviated
by the expressed willingness of the present in
cumbent to cede all claim to the returned hus
band.—Cincinnati Commercial.
Indian Treaty.—The Minnesota Demo
crat says the Sioux chiefs have signed the
treaty as amended, after considerable persuaj
sion, and thus averted threatened difficulties.—
The Sioux ars to have temporary possession of
the reservation, and will probably remain there
for some yeors. The reservation commences
at Little Rock, Minnesota river, some forty
miles above the Big Bend, and embraces ten
miles each side of the river from that point to
Big Stone Lake.
A Successful Hotel Proprietor.—Mr.
Howard, who has been proprietor of the Irving
House, in New York, fur a period of only
three years, has retired from the management
of (hat hold with a fortune of $300,000 —the
amount of his profits, during that time, includ
ing the eum received for the remainder of his
lease on the premises. His finale as host was
celebrated by a splendid entertainment on
Monday last, at which speeches and senti
ments were delivered. Amongst the orators
were Ex-President Tyler, and Mr. Holmes, of
South Carolina. Mr. Howard, it is stated, in
tends to proceed to Europe and make a com
plete tour of that Continent.
The Death or Bishop Chase.—The Bish
op Chase, whose demiss was announced
yesterday, was the Right Reverend Philander
Chase, D. D., Bishop of the Protestant Epis
copal Church of the United States in the dio"
cese of Illinois, and the senior Bishop of that
denomination. He was ordained in St. James
Church, Philadelphia, on the 11th of Feb
ruary, 1819, and has, therefore, held the epis
copal office for more than thirty-three years.
He was the eighteenth Bishop,in succession, of
the Protestant Episcopal Church in this coun
try, and at the time of his death, president of
Jubilee College. The Bishop of Connecticut,
(Brownell,) is now the oldest Bishop.
The Eruption or Etna.—Letters from Cas
tiniaof the 30th August describe the damage
done by the eruption of Etna. One stream
of lava had flowed towards Zafiaroni, fifteen
miles from the crater, and, another towards
the ftjila, devastating the vineyards in both
directions. Prayers had been offered in all the
churches, by way of averting the evil.
Q?~The great India Rubber case of Good
year vs. Duy was decided by Judge Grier, of
the U. S. Circuit Court, at Trenton, N. J.,
on the 28th. The court awarded the injune'
tion prayed for by Goodyear, and referred the
case to J. S. Green to state the account be
tween the parties.
The Hon. Beu. Hardin, a distinguish
ed politician of Kentucky, and formerly a
member of Cangress from that State, died at
Bardstown on the 24th inst.
Bishop Meade administered the rite of
confirmation to some thirty persons, in Lynch
burg, last Sunday evening.
Philip I. Cohen, Esq., the newly ap
pointed postmaster of Norfolk, died on Wed
nesday of an attack of paralysis.
I3P The President has appointed Hiram H.
Baber to be Marshal of the United States for
the District of Missouri, in the place of John

Messr* Mortimer k. Mowbray—Gentlemen • it U
with real pleasure that (am able to attest to the gen
era] healing and curative power* of Dr Hampton'*
Vegetable Tincture. Sometime during last Novem
ber I wa* taken with a very bad and aeriou* cough.
I wa* advised to take Cod-Liver Oil, and did ao;
but getting no better, I wa* induced to try jour
Tincture. I got one bottle, and before I had u*ed
it all, my eough left me. Permit me al*o to *tate
that, for the last fifteen year*, I have suffered very
much from Acute Rheumatism and Vertigo, con
fining me at time* to my bed. lam fully convinc
ed that I owe my preaent good health to the cue of
the Tincture, and a kind Providence.
You are, my friend*, at liberty to u*e thi* aa you
may think proper; and believe me, your*, very
respectfully, G. DUNAN.
N. B.—l can be *een at any time at the Mayor'*
office. G. D.
Cure of Cough, Consumption, great Debility.
JUltmoib, July 6,1852.
Me*srs Mortimer ft Mowbray—Gent*: La*t Sep
tember 1 wa* attacked with erysipelas, from which
a dreadful ulcer formed on my nght leg. Getting
better of thi*, la*t November I took a deep cold,
which ied to what my physician told me wa* bil
ious pleurisy, which left me with a constant, deep
ly-seated, and painful cough, having no re*t day or
night, and constantly throwing up from my lung*
a thick matter. I became much emaciated, grow
ing weaker every day, and keeping my bed the
greater part of the time. My friends thought I had
the consumption, and at time* I wa* also of the
same opinion. At this stage of my di*ease,after hav
ing tried many and various remedies, without suc
cess a friend advi*ed me to try Dr Hampten'sVeget
able Tincture, and I procured me a bottle, which I
now pronounce the greatest medicine 1 ever took.
Before I bad taken half the eontents of one bottle,
I felt much improved; aad now, having taken but
two bottles, my cough »nd pains have entirely left
me, and lam enabled to attend to business. I can
truly say that, with th- blessing of God, I have
been restored to the health 1 now enjoy by the use
of this most invaluable medicine.
