Fivu Hundred Editors to Vibit Wash
INUtom. Anion;: tho many attractions, says
tl- Washington States, which the ensuing
session of Oongro.-s will be mnro novel or
inturesfino; than a proposed visit of five
liumlri"! veteran editors to the metropolis
to witness Congress in session during the
winter. We understand that the suprin
teiulont of the Baltimore nnd Ohio rail
road has made this proposition to them :
has ofTonvl them a free rule over the road
from Wheeling to Washington. The idea
is a goood one ; it will benefit the editors,
the ro.nl, the city, and the country, to say
iinthing of the original correspondence from
Washington which will follow.
Look. Out. A letter from a gentleman
ir JJr-ndy Station, Culpepper county, Va.,
nays, tlm lVterslmrg Intelligencer states,
that 'on lust Sunday night week, it was as
certained that three white men. strangers.
armed, visited the uogro cabins (belonging
v u citizen living in mat neighborhood,; at
late nnur, asking questions of the neirroes
as to the names of the proprietors of adjacent
iiirins, wiictner lliey were at home, the num
bvr of negrnrs on each place, and fnallv, if
nicy inn run wish to go otj under tlicir,es
cort." The facts are stated in order to in
duce prnj-er inquiry and proper caution.
A Turnip that is a TuRHir. Mr. Dan
lei Adams, living near Decatur, Newton
County, has sent to our oflice a Turnip,
gathered from his patch, which if it be a
lair sample of his crop, shows him to under
stand well the art of raising this vegetable.
It measures in circumference 18$ incbss,
and weighs, with the top cut off, a fraction
less than four pounds. A bushel of such
sent to the State Fair at Jackson, would
give a good impression of the capacity of
nim Mississippi as a vegetable raisim' sec
tion. c
A capital reply to the Douglas article in
Harpor's Magaziuo,; has appeared in the
lioston Post, which is attributed to Mr.
Lovejoy, brother of the notorious member
of Congress of tha same name. The spicy.
caustic and able letter which he addressed
not long miico to bis brother on the agitation
ui uic slavery question, secured him many
uumiiers, arm was trie more remarkabje,
coming, ss rt did, from tho very hot-bed of
abolitiouism.
It is said of Lady Franklin that sho has
expended nearly every shilling she possess
ed, to tho amount of 30,000, in various
endeavors to ascertain her husband's fate,
and that unless something be done for her
who appears destined to pass her remaining
days in penury. If the British Government
will not avert that, it is supgstcd that the
women of England and the United States
utiito in a subscription to raise a fund for
her luturo support.

A General Cowhided. Gen. G. W.
IJixou, formerly Duke of Yiu-atan, and now
Larl of J'oydms Market, New Orleans, was
cowhided in said market on Friday evening
by a woman who insisted that he had twice
insulted her in the markot aforesaid. The
wflman went at him like a tigress; and
ufter he had received a few licks, he g:.l
limtly got out of tho way, making neither
lesisUncc nor .subsequent complaint,
A German, was robbed in the town of
Franklin, Conn., by a mere boy, whom he
took into his wagnrt for a ride along the
road; (he boy asked him to smell a fine
perk ro, from a bottle; he smelled, and
iho next thing lie knew he was sitting
alono in his wagon tlm boy, a watdi, 815
in imiiiey, and a buffalo robe gone. Tho
little scamp had chloroform in the bottle.
A eonple of journeymen printers, in
New York, named Wilkins and Hughes,
exchanged "leaded matter," from pistols, in
French's Hotel, a few days since in a qu.ir
rel. Uughes got a "quod" in the breast,
and his "form" was taken to the hospital.
Wilkins "distributed" himself as rapidly as
possible. "A foul case."
A new drink has been invented, which is
thus described by a cotemporay :
It is made of diluted alcohol, nitric acid,
bootlegs and tobacco, and will upset an
individual, at a distance of four hundred
yards from tho demijohn containing it.

has not been quite two yenrs in operation, yet,
has succeeded beyond all expectation ; owing, no
doubt, to its being an individual enterprise,

its owners a fact well known where interest is
concerned, work is likely to bo done.
Camden is noted for its healthy location, being
within four miles of the Artesian Springs.

si'enis ready to spring from the arms of itt fond
