Ludicrous Incident at the Late Operahouse Ball—The Duke of Newcastle Encounters "Jefferson Brick" in a Cincinnati Editor. A correspondent, "Horatio," writing from this city to the Mac-a-cheek JVu, relates an amusing incident, which our local editors leem to have overlooked, at the Opera-house Ball, given in honor of the Prince of Wales, during his recent visit here. Who can the editor be ? " Horatio" writes as follows : Of course, every body who attended the ball, went solely to see, but the editor in question went to be heard; and sight-seers were not a little amused, I assure you, by his Aztec appearance in company with the Duke of Newcastle, upon the appearance of His Grace upon the fashionably-crowded floor of the Opera-house. Every body, as you may suppose, was put upon bis proprieties on that mu h-to-be-remembered occasion, bnt this could not repress the "audible smiles" which greeted the auricular appendages of me iinwmniiDg eauor upon Wis, "fns lirsfc appearance on any stage." He seemed to enjoy the circumstance as much, if not more than any one present, and like Menalcus, laughed louder than all. So gratified, in deed, did the creature feel upon finding such a distinguished occasion and such distin guished company, on which to display bis ape-like qualities, that he rubbed his palms together, like Quilp, until little balls of dirt were accumulated between them, and fell upon the floor. All bnt the envious will see how perfectly natural it was that the great political organ of the West Bbould be represented at the Royal Beception and Ovation, and how bet ter, I ask, could that be done than by its ac companying monkey? His Grace, the Duke of Newcastle, is a gentleman of most dignified bearing and courteous manners, possessing withal, that penetration and shrewdness so eminently woHld be difficult to sny with any degree of accuracy, what effects the conversation of our editor with His Grace will produce upon the political complexion of England in her relations with the United States. I deeply regret, however, that I can furnish but a portion of it, overheard during the pauses in the quadrilles, conducted, too, with that admirable distinctness of tone and utterance only known to the "innermost circle of his most metaphysical friends." For the ben efit, then, of those who were not so fortu nate ns 1 on that occasion, I will repeat the portion I heard: Editor I'd 'n idenr yer lordship (attempt ing to take His Grace by the button-hole, which His Grace happily frustrated by step ping back a few inches,) I'd 'n idear yor lordship was very much s'prized at the effeck 'v my article in the Organ of 'tober fifseven.

This is a magnificent, house; decidedly the hamlsoinest I have ever seen. n Editor Didn't think could be quite uu se vere on the Black 'publans, but ye see people Cincinnati and Hamilton County like strong articles. Duke Ah I But you will excuse me a few seconds, I wish Editor Just holeup, holeup, won't keep you a minnit; got little article here for to morr's Organ, like I read yc see what ye think ovt. Here our editor produced a sheaf of manu script the most execrable ever seen off nn Egyptian sarcophagus. Duke (despairingly and with face a;?hasty I shall be most happy, sir, tosee your article in the Organ to-morrow, but here the or chestra struck up for the next quadrille, and one ot the committee of arrangements ob serving the Duke's embarrassment, conducted him to the other end of the house. There is no telling how indefinitely our editor would have prolonged the tortures to the Duke, and continued to exercise his pe culiar function of bore, but for the committee-man's inteference; even as it was, after His Grace had taken his position at a dis tant part of the house, our editor endeavored to force bis way thither, which the Duke perceiving fled aghast, and after a series of unsuccessful dodgings more amusing than dignified, His Grace at last left the scene of his tortures. Our editor still kept looking for his victim, inquiring of every body, the Prince included, where his lordship had gone, and was about to pursue him to the Burnet House when some gentleman present who had some commisseration for the Duke and some regard for the reputation of Cin cinnati, fortunately conceived the idea of invuing vne editor out 10 arinic, aware mat he was never known to refuse any thing in that line for which he had not to pay. It is only to be regretted that a banquet was not given to -the royal party, that our editor might have bad further opportunity to repre sent the press of Cincinnati, and while sit ting beside ms urace, wallow in nis disu. . ". WONDEBTCL PbBNOMKNOII IN IMDIA A Meteor JCzplodet and llurls a Uasi of Granite Uweivt Jinee.iue great meteor 01 tut zotn Of July was almost coincident with an equally wonderful phenomenon that occurred in the East Indies. On the 14th of that month, at three o'clock P. M., the 'inhabitants of Dnurmsaian. aoout twelve miles to tne soutn of the granite peak of the Dhaoladhar Mount ains were etartled by the nois of a moet . 13 1 . J , a .1 lernnc expioaiun, wtuco uwieu auoui uireo minutes, aud almost persuaded the hearers that the whole of that mocrnificent ranee was falling down. The. solitary cloud that was visible had settled upon the highest peak, and from that, direction some thing was heard whizzine through the air so near the earth, that all ' bands wore- involuntarily raised to shield their heads. ' - i An instant after, a huge black mass was seen to tall in the direction of its path, about a mile away.- The spot was at once visited, and an immense block, apparently granite, covered over with a pitchy substance, had buried itself three feet anil a halt into the crround. When duo- out. it was fnnnH nf an fey coldness, so that pieces broken bom it could cot be held in the hand. Two smaller pieces of the same kind, fell within two miles of it. The structure of the granite corre sponds exactly witn mat or tue mountains, and as they are covered with perpetual snow, the icy coldness of the meteor suggested a conjecture that the explosion tore it from the peak, 1,600 feet high, and carried -it twelve miles through the air. The question was to be scientifically investigated. A Candt Status cf tbi Prince or Walis. A candy ttatue of the Prince of Wales was manufactured by a St. Louis confectioner daring the recent vjiit of the Prince of Wales to that city.

Gurowski, In his "Minor Experiences," con tributes the following to the New York Sat urday Ireti: A hack took me from the depot to the Re vere House. Here I had my first insight into the arrangements of these great caravan seraglios, called hotels, and my first expe rience of genuine American hotel-life. Such sumptuous public parlors were altogether new to me. I could not, at first, see the ne cessity of such luxury, nor indeed the utility of having the rooms at all. Not loss aston ishing to me was the noise pernliar to these hotels; bnt most astonishing of all (though in qnite a different way) were the single sleeping-rooms in the upper part of the house, with the otter nbsence of proper fur niture, such as comfortable chairs, writing tables, window-curtains,- Ac. Other con veniences, such as hot and cold water, gas, Ac, I highly esteemed, but I was then ignorant that American travelers do their reading, writing, Ac, anywhere but in their own rooms. I now saw that the parlor of the hotel was the common bureau. I did not know, before, how little privacy of any kind prevailed in American hotels. Next came the horrid, ear-splitting, bead breaking gong; then the ladies, all in ball dresses, streaming from the parlors into the immense dining-room; then a momentary si lence of expectation; then the sign of com mand by the bead-waiter, the drill of the under-waiters, with their continual maneu vers, marches, counter-marches, and their free fight at the side-board for ordered dishes; then the wonderful bill of fare, mostly in bad French; all this kept me in snch a state of bewilderment for the moment that I quite forgot to eat. From beginning to end it was all new to me, there being nothing in all Europe to resemble it in any way whatever. I could not help thinking how delighted would be the great drill-master of St. Petersburg the Grand Duke Michael, brother of Nicholas, and one of my most unrelenting enemies to know that the iaws of military discipline were rigidly car ried out and enforced among the waiters of our American dinner-tables! Dinner ever, most of the ladies returned to the public parlor, or promenaded tip and down the halls, forming themselves now and then into groups and tete-a-tetes, and presenting a very animated scene, which af forded me one of the pleosantest evenings I had spent in America. The novelty of the thing made it more entertaining to me than any theater, for it was in strong contrast to any thing I had ever seen. Interesting Interview of a French Literatteur with Coleridge's Daughter. M. Pichot, the French literateur, has pab- iri. J 1 r : ' , ijsueu n tuiuuju ui uiisuciiaiiicg suu remin- iscences, which, from the city of Aries, his birthplace, he calls Arlesiennei, "chronicles, legends, tales, and biographical and literary recollection". M. Pichot has done much to familiarize English literature in France, and dates from 1822, his first introduction to the English soil. In that year he was for some time the guest of Southey at Keswick, while there were under his roof two charming' visitors the daughters respectively of the poets Coleridge and Wordsworth. His first glimpse of the former lady is very Frenchily described In a pleasant little glimpse of the poet's household. "I shall never forget," says Mons. P., "when, in the evening, as we were all sitting round the tea-tnhlo, my host, a little surprints' t the acquaintance-with English literature displayed by a young Frenchman of that day, asked me whether I was acquainted with Coleridge's writings. For answer I wm rather proud to be able to repeat the first stanza or his 'Love,' and had scarcely got beyond 'all thoughts, all passions, all delights, fee, when Soutuey in terrupted me with, 'Here is Miss Coleridge.' 'Good heavens, I fancied I knew the poet's masterpiece,' I exclaimed, as I gazed on that delicate yet blooming countenance, an ideal impersonation of tho weird witchery of her fatbei's muse, with a pro'onged look of ad miration, and to continue the quotation, 'She forgave me that I gazed' 'Too fondlj In her faco.T " This lady was, of course, Sara Coleridge, who so nobly devoted herself with her cousin aud husband, Henry Nelson Coleridge, to the care of her father's fame by collecting and editing his works. Miss Wordsworth, afterward Mrs. Quilliman, is described by the enthusiastic young foreigner as a beauty of a more dignified and stately caste. Extraordinary Abduction of an Heiress— Romantic Incident in Rio Janeiro. The Rio Janeiro correspondent of the New York Timet say t: . Some month or two since, as a Senor Luis Antonio Carvalho, one of the wealthiest men in Rio, was returning with his family from the opera, his carriage was forcibly stopped, and a young man presenting a revolver, de manded that his daughter should follow him, which was complied with. The young man then took her by means of a small row-boat across the bay to Praia Grande, stating his intention to compel her to marry him when they should arrive at a certain place in that city, where he had made his arrangements therefor. The young lady, apparently very docile, suffered herself to be led along, and after proceeding a few hundred yards shammed a fainting-fit and declared her in ability to proceed further. Under the cir cumstances the abductor was obliged to carry her to the nearest dwelling, threatening her at the same time with instant death if she were to disclose his intentions to the occn- f onts. By some means, however, she con rived to inform the masterof the house, who turned out to be a friend of her parents, and who caused the arrest of the young man and returned the young lady to her father. Yes terday the abductor was tried and sentenced to ten years' imprisonment with hard labor for the offense. The restorer of the daughter was rewarded handsomely by the wealthy parent, and the girl herself obliged to marry one of ber father's clerks in order to save herself from a future similar annoyance. Thus ends a small tragedy which might have formed a good basis for a James's novel, and which has been the town-talk of all Rio ever since its occurrence. t Medical Pbopikties of tbi Carrot. Stewart, in his excellent work on stable economy, says 1 N Not only do carrots give strength and en durance to sound horses, but also give re covery and health to such as are sick. There is nothing better, perhaps none so good. When first given they are strictly diuretic and laxative, but as the horses become ac customed to them, these effects cease to be Produced, They also improve the aiate of be skin. Tbey form a good gubstituta. for grass, and an excellent alterative for horseg out of condition. To sick and idle horses they render corn unnecessary. They are beneficial in all chronic diseases connected with breathing, and have a marked inHu mce on ehronic cough and broken wind. They are serviceable in diseases ef the skin; and in combination with oaW, restore a worn horse much sooner than oats alone, f Naples Eqcalid im St. Lodis. The keeper of the ht.

The vessel was enmmanaea iy Antonio Alendez, an Ola slave smuggler: "Our schooner was loaded bevoni ca pacity, and the deck had to be fitted with temporary platforms, or shelves, as high as the tnffrail. Above these, stiff netting was drawn to prevent the shackled couples from leaping overboard, to commit suicide. In walking the deck, we some times trod on a band or foot, thrust out from the lower tier. Such was the condition of the Poncheeta't cargo, when we left the Bight. "On our last night out, there was a fright ful battle among the slaves, for room and air, although our hatches were off. The crew and overseers restored order by the use of whips and handspikes, but not till seventeen negroes had been choked to death, or so badly gnawed in their throats by their neighbors, that we were obliged to drown them. 80 tightly were the wretches wedged below, that the sailors had to draw the dead ones out by main pulling of their legs. "About a week out, we encountered a se vere gale, which drove us furiously before it, all our canvas being taken in. I had, up to this time, kept to my resolution of abstain ing from drink while on shipboard; but the close, sultry weather, and the stench of the negroes, sickened me, so that I indulged that night pretty freely in potations of Jamaica spirits, until I dropped off to sleep. I was awakened by a crash, as if the skies were tailing, and a yell like a thousand tigers. Springing from my bunk, near the aTter pangwny, I heard Captain Mendez calling to his mates, while the men were running to and fro like mad. Nothing was to be seen; no light apeak or abeam; and the night rainy, aid as dark as a wolf's mouth. I ran toward the binnacle-lamp, and found the helm Bwinging loose, and at that moment a vivid flash of lightning, by which I saw Captain Mendez. with a face like his shirt; 'Save yourself, doctor!' cried he, 'the brig is sinking!' "I ru.-hed to midships, and heard the ne groes screeching on both sides, then back to the stern davits-where our men were lower ing the boats. How I got in with the rest I never knew, but ten minutes after this I found myself with Captain Mendez and half the crew, in one of our boats, the rain dash ing on us; we rowed about for an hour, be fore day appeared. "The gale had lulled, but the heavy rain was like a water-Bpout. All this time we could bear the slaves screeching on board the Poneheeta. When morning broke we saw her a-Ieo, her decks almost level with the water's edge. We did not dare to pull nearer, but lay by till she went down, a little over two hours after the collision that caused her to founder. " She had been struck on the beam by a large vessel, which tore away ber starboard rail and netting the whole length, crushing our chained blacks on their shelves, which occasioned the dismal shrieks we had heard. The Poneheeta sprung a-leakand filled grad ually till she sank, with nearly 400 liv ing human beings manacled on her slave decks. One of our boats must have found ered, with several of her crew. We were picked up bv the vessel that had run us down, and which had lain to during the fog. It was an armed East Indiaman, the Mcrtei, bound for Zanzibar, and by her we wero landod at dhenda, on the Guinea caaet.' Unique Financial Transaction—A French Dramatist's Mode of Paying a Bill. 4 Paris correspondent writes in a recent letter Martairville was an intimate friend of a manager who, atone moment, found himself on the point of being ruined. The journal ist, in the incredibly brief Bpace of three days, wrote the Pied de Mouton, which had an immense vogue and made the manager's fortune. But, as usual, the author remained poor, in all save riches of intelligence. He was sometimes reduced to straits, when mother-wit served hiin instead of bard cash; and one anecdote ot this readiness is worth repeating. Martainville frequented the Cafe Coste, a sort of journalistic headquarters, where all shadeB of political opinion met, on neutral ground. With the carelessness char acteristic of literarv Bohemians, the Bourbon journalist ran up aVillof nearly 1,000 francs, at this establishment, and the account was one morning presented to him, by the pro prietor ef the Cafe, with the intimation that there was "no hurry," but it was as well for Monsieur to know the amount of his indebt edness. "You can pay," said the landlord, "by small sums at a time, to be credited to your account, until the whole is canceled." Martainville turned the bill over and over in bis hand, with a puzzled air, which lasted but a moment. Turning toward his creditor, he said "My dear Dufils, you know vary well that, if left to myself, I Bbould never succeed in squaring affairs with you. Still, you shall be paid, and I am about to tell you now. You are aware that I am invited, at least twenty times a day, to drink. In fu ture, whenever I am the object of such cour tesy, I shall ask for gin. Yeu will keep a decanter of water, for my use, and each time I take my pretended glass of gin, you will give me credit for the cost of the genuine article." The proposition was accepted, and in three months, Martainville's debt was paid. Tui IUisiNo of Stock. From an article upon this topio in the Field and Fireside, we make the following brief extract: . . It is choice cows, sheep, horses and mules, that yield the greatest returns to skillful husbandmen. The production of scrubs, or mean stock of any kind, is rather a mean business, in a pecuniary point of view. Raise superior animals, on rich perennial grasses, if you seek a good income from your farm-stock husbandry. Such animals may obtain part of their living from ua im proved old fields, particularly sheep; but tbey want good clover and pea-hay in the winter, or hay made from the English grasses. The most prominent error in stock growing, is the attempt to rear fine hogs, cattle and sheep, on scanty and defective food. Some want a great deal of meat, milk or wool from little or nothing. They ask nature to make them rich, while they lie in the shade in summer, and sit by the fire in winter, and leave their poor animals to nearly or quite perish from neglect. Thk Rabet Pbinoiplb Applisd to Uh bclt HoBsxa. Among the new inventions on exhibition at the Fair in Toronto, Canada, was an application of the Rarey prinaiple to unruly horses when driven before a vehicle. A line is attached to a strap at the fetlook of we toreiooi; it passes up tne leg, being con fined by an elastic baud above the knee; then passes through a fastening at the back-band to the driver s seat. It is here attached to a lever, either fur the hand or foot, which completes the apparatus. If the horse, when In harness, attempts to run or kick, the ap plication of the lever lifts the foreleg and confines it a la Rarey. . .

These islands are 211 in nnmber, and oc cupy 40,000 square miles in the South Pacific Ocean, about 1,000 miles distant from New Zealand. They are various in character, bnt generally very productive. They are mostly inhabited by Cannibals, who, to this day, sometimes roast and eat the bodies of their enemies, and even of their friends. The Fi jian is large and finely formed; he has re markably amiable qualities; nowhere in the world is more ceremonyoretiquette practiced than in these islands; the houses are large aad neatly built: the canoes are of a beauti ful model; and tne people are luxurious in their habits, but warlike and perfidious. The language is remarkably rich, and full of con versational power. A small trade with Europe began, in 1800, In sandal-wood. They now export cocoa-nut oil and tortoise shell, witH the beche-de-mer, a sort of a sea-slug, much valued by the Chinese for food. The cocoa-nut is their staff of life, affording them food, light, cloth ing, utensils, cups, cordage, fishing-tackle, wood, oil and carpeting. Of the latter, al though they nse a great deal. 700 yards were sent to America in 1859. The female turtle is mosv prized for its shell. They are first entangled In a set, and then captured in their own element, frequently after a labor ious struggle. The thirteen plates, on the back and sides, are the tortoise-shell of com merce, are called "a head," and weigh from one to seven pounds. The Fijian exports amount to nearly $1,009,000 per annum. Missionaries have been laboring here for many years, and with signal, though unboastful success. The cus tom of cannibalism has been much abated, and not a few of the natives have been con verted and saved. The principal king, Tbakonebran, has offered the sovereignty of his islands to Queen Victoria, a remarkable fact, showing the progress of civilization among his people. The Invention of the Spinning-Jenny, and How it Obtained its Name. James Hargreaves was the inventor of the spinning-jenny. It is related of him that one day, will deeply engrossed with the idea of bis invention, he suddenly dropped upon his knees, and rolled on the stone floor at full length. He lay with his face toward the floor, and made lines and circles with the end of a burned stick. 'He roae, and went to the fire to burn his stick. He took hold of bis bristly hair with one hand, and rubbed his forehead and nose with the other and the blackened stick. Then he sat upon a chair, and placed his head between his hands, and his elbows on his knees, and gazed intently on the floor, then he sprang to his feet, and replied to some feeble ques tion of his wife (who had not risen since the day she gave birth to a little stranger) Jby a loud assurance that ht had it: and taking ber in bis sturdy arms, in the blankets, the baby in her arras, be lifted her out, and held her over the black drawings on the floor. These be explained, and she joined a small, hopeful, happy laugh with his high toned assurance, that she should never again toil at the spinning-wheel. She leaked some questions, which be answered, after seating ber in the arm-chair, by laying her spinning wheel on its back, the horizontal spindle standing vertically, while he made the wheel revolve, and drew a roving of cotton from the spindle into an attenuated thread. "Our fortune is made when that is made," he said, speaking of his drawings on the floor. "What will you call it?1' asked his wife. "Call it ? What an' we call it after tliyen. Jenuy 1 They called thee "(Spinning Jenuy afore I bad thee, beqause thou beat every lass in Stanehill Moor at the wheol. What if we call it 'spinning-jenny?' " Wonderful Power of Endurance—An Italian with a Charmed Life. We take from a work on health and his eose the following remarkable case, cited as aii instance of the wonderful recuperative power of nature: Prof. Feresti. who died but two years since in Genoa, had been, for twenty years of his life, shut up in one of the dreariest dungeons in Venice He says of himself, "that goaded by desperation, and waiting for death, which might come at any moment, at any Btep, for he was passing under a guard of soldiers the long line of magnificent rooms of the ducal palace, leading to the famous 'Bridge of Signs,' through which many a prisoner had passed before in wonder, whether to the bosom of his family, to the wheel, the gal lows, or the stake; not knowing but that such a fate might be bis within the very hour, the very next five minutes, he stabbed himself in frenzy, but not skillfully, for it was so fiercely done that he was only a wounded man; then seizing a bottle he broke it to pieces, crunched the glass of it in his mouth and swallowed it, in hopes thus to make death sure; bnt living still, he gath ered np the pieces, and severed artery after artery, until he had not strength to sever another, and then, all in his gore, he was sent back to his prison: a plank, a mattress, and a blanket were all the bed for him in that low, noisome, one-window, double barred dungeon; an iron chair, an earthen jug. His bill of fare for breakfast was broth made of burned flour, and bacon put In warm water; supper was tne same; dinner, a dump vessel, and to be eaten with the fingers. But in spite of all, nature cured Foresti to die thirty-six years later." iaw -' 1 Tbi Bist Oil fob Boots and Habniss. . Some practice, and a good deal of reasoning from analogy, has proved that the very beet oil for all applications to leather, is the com mon castor-oil (from the bean of the Palma Christa plant), and identical with that with which careful mothers sometimes nauseate their children. Oue of the reasons of its value, is that it has less affinity for water than any other oil, and less tendency to harden or thicken the leather, as neats-foot and other animal oils do. Leather that has been frequently saturated with any kind of animal fat, and exposed to water, as boots and harness are, instead of remaining pliable, becomes hard and dry, losing its elasticity, and finally becoming brittle and worthless; but that which is oiled with the extract of the Palma Christa haan ftnil In a Inaa itAirpaA uritli fl. i.....t nil appears to retain its fibrous toughness a greai deal longer.. The oil is natural viscid, con taining some glutenous matter, which serves a oeiwr purpose tnan animal oil to exclude the water, which, when absorbed by leather, is the real cause of its non-elasticity. Cas tor oik if bought by the gallon, is not ex pensive. It was manufactured, a few years ago, in Illinois, and Bold at fifty cents a gallon, and the beans were grown as a field crop, at fifty cents a bushel. It is well worth the while for tinners to give castor oil a trial as a lubricator of leather. , , A Inkocijit ViOTrst or bb Last Vib flixiAB FBiauTvIt is alleged that Michael Flyun, who was shot by the patrol in Nor folk County, Jast week, was a man of harm less character, and not likely to be connected with a negro plot; that he had no negro in bis shanty at the time of the shooting; that the gun which he pointed at the patrol was not loaded; and that he was shot while sit ting up on his bed, after belug roused out of Sleep. . t :!.
