A BEAUTIFUL belle never thinks of hiding any

THERE are calm, tranquil pieces, even in the cav

THE colored citizens of New Orleans own real es

a daily newspaper, the Tribune, printed and edited
by colored men.
THE construction of the Government arsenal on
Rock Island, Illinois, will be commenced immediate

dollars, and will be one of the largest structures of

A PLEASANT, cheerful wife is a rainbow set in the
sky, when her husband's mind is tossed with storms
and tempests ; but a dissatisfied and fretful wife, in
the hour of trouble, is like a thunder cloud charged
with electric fluid. At such times a wise man will
keep clear, if possible, in order to avoid the shoek.
BOMBAY is in a state of much excitement over the
great sucsees of East India cotton cultivation. Men
who a short time ago were possessed of only
moderate means, have suddenly become million
aires, and the manner in which it is said fortunes
are being piled up there rivals the wonders of our
own oil regions.
STRIKES OR ENGLAND. —Strikes are the order of
the day among the mechanics in the middle counties
of England. In Birmingham about eight hundred
carpenters are on a strike ; in Coventry about four
hundred men, comprising all branches : in Walsall
about four hundred of all branches ; in Nottingham
about seven hundred ; in Malvern about one hun
dred, and about one thousand in the other towns.
A FEW weeks ago, near Southampton, the gate
man at a level railway crossing incautiously opened
a gate to let a donkey and cart, with a man and wo
man in charge of a child in the cart, pass through,
when a train, then due, came up, and swept every
thing from the line, killing the three human beings
and the donkey, and smashing the cart into atoms.
TWENTY TWO young ladies lately graduated at the
Framingham (Massachusetts) Normal School. The
exercises with the examination, occupied two days,
aud were atten'ded by Governor Andrew, ex-Gover
nor Washburne, and President Stearns, of Amherst
College. Governor Andrew presented the diplomas.
This is the oldest Normal school in America, hav
ing been established in Lexington in 1830, removed
to West Newton iu 1844, and to Framingham in 1858.
A WARNING. —The Pungolo , of Milan, has the fol
lowing: "A young man of good fortune, inscribed
on the conscription lists for the present year and be
trothed tj a handsome girl, was lately declared unfit
for service. Delighted at what he considered a
lucky escape, he hastened to convey the news to his
intended bride, but was sadly taken back when she
informed him of her firm resolution never to accept
as a husband a man who was not fit to serve as a
soldier."'
A PLEASANT story is told of a rather aged lady who
was recently married to a young and fast man, quit'
ting him at the station when he was en voyage on
some important private affairs. After an embrace
of the most loviug character, she pnt her head into
the carriage and said :
'"Dear Charles, remember you are masried."'
To which he replied :
"Dear Caroline, I will make a memorandum of
it," and once tied a knot in his handkerchief.
POPULAR SENTIMENT AT THE SOUTH,-— The Rich
mond Enquirer frankly admits that there is, or has
been a large party at the South willing to return to
the Union, and that it would have certainly become
tbfc dominant party if the peace commissioners had
been proposed generous terms by Lincoln and SewJ
ard. This is the first time that any Richmond jour
nal has admitted that reconstruction was possible—
The Mobile Register and Adrertiser says the peo
ple at that end of the Confederacy are willing not
only to come back, but consent to a gradual aboli
tion of slavery.
A BAD PRACTICE. —Many persons who use kero
sene lamps , are in the habit when going to bed or
when leaving a room for a short time, of turning the
wick down low in order to save the consumption of
oil. The consequence is that the air of the room
soon becomes vitiated by the unconsumed oil va
pors, by the gas produced by tha combustion, and
also by the minute particles of smoke and soot which
are thrown off. Air thus poisoned is deadly in its
effects, and the wonder is that more persons are not
immediately and fatally injured by breathing it. Ir
ritation and inflammation of the throat and lungs,
headache, dizziness and nausea are among its effects
—Boston Journal.
THE MARCH OF EVENTS.— Time is pretty certain
to bring its compensations at last. A gentleman
recently from the valley of the Mississippi, says
that at St. Louis, in a building formerly occnpied as
a slave pen, he saw large numbers of rebel prison
ers over whom colored soldiers were standing guard.
They went to war to rivet closer the chains of the
black man ; to-day the black man is master of the
position. Says a correspondent : —"Campbell's
slave pen is now a rebel prison. 'Get in dar yer
self," said a colored woman, as she saw the rebel
prisoners filing into the old pen. Use to put us dar.
Get dar yerself now. De Lord's comin sure.'
CHINESE PROPOSAL OF MARRIAGE. —When a gen-,
tleman feels desirous of taking unto himself a wife
he sends to the paternal head of some family con
taining daughters, for specimens of the sizes of their
cet, with the prices attached. One foot is valued,
at perhaps two thousand dollars, the next smallest
at five thousand, and so forth, according to the mar
ket. After the foot (or the lady to whom it belongs)
is chosen, she is sent in a sedan chair to the intend
ed husband's house; he meets her at the door, looks
into the vehicle to take a view of the fair one ; and
if she suits his taste, he admits her. As soon as
she passes his threshhold she becomes his lawful
wife ; but if he likes not the lady, he shuts the
door, and she is carried whither she came.
THE transmutation of sounds is one of the most
curious mysteries of the air. A word spoken in the
focus of our ellipse can be heard in the focus of an
opposite ellipse hundreds of yards away. Such a
principle was oddly illustrated in the great churtlt of
Agrigentam, in Sicily. The architect, very probably
intentionally, built several confessionals of an ellip
tical form, with corresponding opposite ellipses, in
which, whoever stood, heard all the secrets whis
pered to the priest, A horrible amount of scandal
immediately sprang np iu the city ; nobody's inns
were safe from getting into unaccountable publicity.
The church soon became such a temple of truth that
nothing was left to be hid in it. At last, by chance,
a discovery was made of the tale-telling tones, and
the walls had their ears stopped.

Gentlemen. — Having stated it verbally to you. I have
no hesitation, in writing the faet, that I experienced mark
ed benefit from your Hoofland's German Bitters. During
a long and tedious session of Congress, pressing and oner,
ous duties nearly prostrated me. A kind friend suggest
ed the use of the preparation I have named. I took hi*
advice, and the result was improvement of health, renew
ed energy, and that particular relief I so much noedod
and obtained. Others may be similarly advantaged if
they desire to be. Truly your friend,

lam the recipient from you of one of the greatest fa
vors that can be conferred upon MAN, viz: that of health.
For many years have I suffered from one of the most an
noying and debilitating complaints that the human fami
ly can be afflicted with. Chronic Diarrhea.
During the long time I was suffering from this disease,
I was attended by regular physicians, giving MC but tem
porary relief. The cause seemed to remain uutil I was
induced to try Hoofland's German Bitters. After the use
of a few bottles of that valuable medicine, the eomplaim
appeared to be completely eradicated.
1 often inwardly thank you for such a valuable specific
and, whenever I have an opportunity, cheerfully recom
mend it, with full confidence in its reliability.
Truly yours,

Messrs. Jones A Evans — Gentleman :— My mother-in
law has been so greatly benefitted by your Hoofland's Ger
man Bitters that I concluded to try it myself. I FIDDIF to
bean invaluable tonic, and unhesitatingly recommend it
to all who arc suffering from dyspepsia. I have had that
disease in its most obstinate form — flatulence — for many
years, and your Bitters has given me case when every",
thing else had failed. Y'ours truly, Jl'Uls LKE.
From the Hon. JACOB BROOM,
Philadelphia, Oct. 7th, 1863.
Gentlemen : In reply to your inquiry as to THE offee
produced by the use of Hoofland's German Bitters, in
my family, I have no hesitation in saying that it has been
highly beneficial. In one instance, a ease of dyspepsia of
thirteen years' standing, and which had become very dis
tressing, the use of one bottle gave decided relief. HC sec
ond affecting a cure, and the third, it seems, has confirmed
the cure, for there has been no symptoms of its return for
the last six years. In my individual use of it 1 find it O
be an unequalled tonic, and sincerely recommend Us use
to the sufferers.
Truly yours, JACOB BROOM,

Messrs. Jones A Evans — Gentlemen: j I have recently
B. en laboring under the distressing effects of indigestion,
accompanied by a prostration of tha nervu.- system,
num erous remedies were recommended by riends, and
some of them tested, but without relief. Your Hoofland's
German Bitters were recommended by persons who bad
tried them, and whose favorable mention of the Bitters
induced me also to try them. I must confess that I bad
an aversion to Patent Medicines, from the '-thousand and
one quack "Bitters whose only aim seems to be to palm
off sweetened and drugged liquor upon the community,
in a riy way: and the tendency of which, I fear, is to
make many a confirmed drunkard. Upon learning that
yours was really a medicine preparation, I took it with
happy effect. Its action was not upon only the stomach,
bat upon the nervous system, was prompt and gratifving.
I feel that I have derived great and permanent LA-nefit from
the use of a few bottles. Very respectfully v § s,
' W. D. SEIGFRIED.

friend to try a bottle of your German Bitters. I did so. and
