"We are a butpeople here, kir, anl have no.

men fie were lett, acknowludiugr the departuro
of their other halves by a nod; tuid there was
an end of them.
Onee or twice, when there wa a panne, Mar

ol the time as Colonel Diver, Mr. Jcf-tere-ou
llrick, and others; renowned,, as it ap
peared, lor excellence in the achievement of a
peculiar style of broadside-essay called "a
terminer." ...
'".We are a busy ppople, sir," said one of the
captains, who was from the West, "and have no
time lor reading mere notions. We don't mind

line the peneral, who appeared to quite
prow fiiint at the bare thoupbl ot roaliny any
thing which was neither mercantile nor politi
cal, aud was iiot iu a newspaper, Inquired "if
any pcntleman would drink some?" Most of
the company, considering this a very choice
and seasonable idea, lonneed out one by one to
the bar-room In the next block. Thence they
probably went to their stores and counting
houses; tbence to the bar-room npain, to talk
onee more of dollars, and enlarge their minds
with the perusal and discussion of screamers;
and thence each man to snore in the bosom of
his own funny.
Now, there had been at the dinner-table a
middle-aped man with a dark eye and a sun
burnt face, who bad attractea Martin's attention
by having something very enpatner and honest
in the expreksion ot his features: but of whom
he could learn nothing from either of hie neigh
bors, who seemed to cousider him quite beneath
their notice. He had taken no pait in the con
version round the stove, nor had he pone forth
with the rest; and now, when be heard Martin
tie h for the third or fourth time, he mterpo-ed
with some casual remark, as if he desired, with
out obtrudiup himself upon a stranger's notice,
to eueftoe him in choerlul conversation it he
coulo. His motive was so obvious, and yet so
delicately expressed, that Martin felt really
eratetul to him, and showed him so in the man
ner 01 his reply.
"I will not ask you," said this penllamau with
a smile, as he rose and moved towards him,
"how you like my country, for I can quite
anticipate yoar real feeling on that noiut. But.
as I Bui an American, aud consequently bouud
to begin with a question, I'll abk you how do
yon I ke the colonel ?" '
"You are so very frank," returned Martin,
"that I have no hesitation in saying I don't like
htm at all. Thouph 1 must add that I am - be
holden to him lor his civility in brinsrini? me
heie amt arranging lor my i-tav, on pretty
reasonable terms, by the way," he added: re
men. b?ring that the colonel had whispered him
to that effect, before going out. .
"Not much beholden," said the stranger drily.
"The colonel occasionally boards packet ships', I
have heard, to glean the latest iniormation for
liislournul; and be occasionally brings stranger?
to board heie, I believe, with a view lo the little
percentage which attaches to those good ollices;
and which the hostess deducts Irom his weekly
bill. I ooo't offend you, I hope t" he added,
seeing that Martin reddened.
"My dear sir," returued Mtrttn, as they shook
hands, "how is that possible? to tell you the
truth, I am "
"Yen?" said the gentleman, sitting down
beside him.
am ra'her at a loss, since I must speak
plainly,".ta.d Martin, petting the better ot hi9
hesitation, "to know how the colonel escapes
wq beaten."
"Weill He has hern bea'en once or twice,"
remaiked the gentleman quietly. "He is ono of
a class of men in whom our own Franklin, so
Iole ago as ten years belore the close ot the last
century, loreeaw our danger ana aisgntce, rer
haps you don't know that Franklin, in very
severe terms, published bia opinion that those
who - were tdandeicd by such fellows as this
colonel, havinp no sufficient remedy in the ad
ministration of this country's laws, or in the
decent and Tight-minded leelinp of its people,
were justified iu retorting on such public,nui
sauccs by means of a stout cudgel f" .
"I was not aware of that," said Martin, "but
I am very glad to know it, and I think it worthy
ol his memory, especially" hire he hesitated
again.
"Go on,"" said thf other, smiling.as if he knew
what stucK in Martin' throat.
"Es-pt daily," pursued Martin, "as I can already
understand that it mav have required great
courage, even in his time, to write treely on any
uestion wnictt was not a party one in inis very

or 1'iiiLiDFLriii a. A stated meeting of this
Socirty was held on Thursday evening last, at
its Hall, No. 624 Walnut street, Vice President
Chandler in the chair.
A number 01 donations were made- to Ihe So
ciety, Including one very tine Calcutta rupee,
dated Awno Hcpirle 1131, which was presented
B'y Mr,,-tTlgh.ton. ,
. Mr. Hart con.iiiunlcateu an account of a recent
discovery ol Itomau gel coins Id Parts.
Mr. Phillips read an article relative to niw
Kpypt an postage stamps aud recent archieolo
gital discoveries in the West.
A very interesting original communication
was made by Dr. fanlcl (i. Uriuton, iu relation
to the newly discovered alphabetical key to the
OutrHl American inscriptions at Pulenque, etc.
He showed clearly the phonetiB character of
those Inscriptions, and traced the origin of all
wilting, which he divided Into two clases,
"ideographic"' and "pictographies," which lormcr
if derived Irom aud is a modification and devel
opment ol the latter. Words bear two relations:
1. Ideas relating to outside things. 2. Ideas
relatirg to interior things.
. Of the first class is picture writing, and can
never represent ideas of absolute things. Pure
picture writing cannot exist without symbols,
which are the beginning of ideographic writing.
The tpjptian ideographic writings are rich in
concrete Ideas, but are unable to express ab
stract oues. Hence, there are many symbols
for women in their various relations, such as
wire, virgin, and widow, mother, etc., but none
lor womaD In the abstract. To such an alphabet,
where no ideas are expressed, but only things,
the key once lost is pone forever; only a general
idea remains from which we can guess at the
meaning. The tiausposition from ideographic
to phonetic writinp, from symbol to sound,
occurs for the hrst time in proper names, which
all had once a meaning outside ot the indi
vidual who bore them, and had reference to
some external object or quality. For example,
Jones, John-son; Hobcrtson, Kobin-son, etc.
The earliest names ot which we have record
are compound words. Amnemonic sign was
oilcn aoopted for a portion of the name, an
ii'statce whereof is shown in eaily heralcry of
articles taken together and combined like a
rebus. Thus, Bolton arms were a cask or
tun pierced by a cross-bar bolt.
Similarly in the most ancient alphabets the
un dies of the lelters were taken from some
word, and with which thev began. The case In
Oiihara, Hebrew, etc. Thus in Hebrew the letter
A Is named Aleph, B is Eet, from Bayit, a house;
G is Gimel, a camel, etc. M in Gothic is
called "Jucm," a wotd common to that stock
ol languages, and of most frequent occurrence.
ir. Brintou then proceeded to explain the
new found Maya alphabet. The Maya race was
the most civilized aud cultivated race in
America. The ruins of their palaces, etc.,
Hinply prove it. Their language doubtiess par
took in Fome degree of civilization and of a pho
netic character. Carloiiebes lound that the
Central American figures bear resemblance In
object to the Fgyptian ones. Abbe Brasse de
uourooiry has Deeu able to icad several mss.
ty means ot a Mapa alphabet found in a Hna-
nirb convent. The al habet consists of t went v-

source of trouble in interpreting the inscrip

aroitrary symbols for others, variable at the

IntlOETANT AKREPT BY DETECTIVE GEORGE II.
Smith. About a week ago. Detective George H.
bmith lett the city In search of one Stephen
Allis, w ho, it is alltged, stole $20,000 in Govern
ment bonds from the residence of the late
Patrick O L'onncll, in the upper scetion of the
city. The theft was committed In May last,
immediately alter the decease of Mr. O'Uounell;

lound by the Grand Jury, aud all that remained
to be done was the arrest of the defendant.

and yesterday returned to this city, having in
his custody the accused, who was found com
fuitablv located on a (ami iu Parkcrsburg, Va.,

wife was in some way related to the late Mr.
O'Doiinell, and, of couise. Allis was a frequent
visitor, ltwaskuown that the deceased was
iu possession of Government bonds; but on a
search be ing ma.de for them they could not be
lound. Other circumstances connected with the
diKflppeaniTice' ot the money pointed to the guilt
of Allis. He will no doubt be at once taken into
Court and tried for the alleged oUVnsc. Detec
