In a charming little village, situated in a truly romantic country, but a considerable distance from the high road, was Baron H. accustomed lo spend the summer. Mis mansion, built upon an emi nonce, was perfectly adapted to his fortune. 2t was a spacious building, very elegant within and without, and exhibited a good stylo oi urchnec lure, and it was about two hundred paces from the , village. Business obliged the Baron to take a journey of la few days. His wife, who was but twenty ytara ol age, very beautiful, remained at home, lie look with him two of his servants, and the other two were left with the baroness. No violation of the public security had over been heard of in that pan of the country, and as the baroness did not belong to tho timid portion of her sox, (ho idea of danger was far from entering her mind. The evening after (he baron’s departure, as she was stepping into bod, site heard an alarming noise in an apartment near her chamber. She called out but received no answer. The confusion and screaming increased every moment. She was at a loss lo conceive what was the matter, and has tily putting on her garments, went to the door to discover tho cause- A horrid spectacle presented itself! Her two servants, half naked, were ex- 1 ' tended lifeless on the floor. The room was full of strango looking men; the of thom ? and instead of the mercy alio impforeTn she received (he falsi stroke. No sooner did iho door open than two barbarians, with drawnswords, rushed towards it. What woman, or even man, would not have been struck with the utmost terror, and given up lifu and everything as lost 1 A loud shriek of despair, a flight of u few paces, would probably have been tho last resort of many. The baroness, however, conducted herself in a different manner. “And you have come at last V* exclaimed she, with a lone ol hcarMVlt joy, and advancing to wards her assailants, whit u haste that highly as tonished them, they lowered their uplifted wea pons. “Are you como ol lasi 1” repealed she. ‘‘Such visitors as you 1 have tong wished to see." ‘■W tbhed V muttered one of the assassins.— “What do you mean by that 1 But slay, I’ll ” He hud already raised his cutlass, but a com rade averted the stroke. “Stop a moment broth er,” said be, “let us first hoar what she would have.” ••Nothing bul w hat ia your pleasure, bravo com* radca. You are men alter my own heart, uud -neither you ncr 1 shall have any reason lo repeni it, if you will baton for iwo minutes to what 1 have to say." ‘•Speak I apeak l M cried iho whole company. ‘ Uut bo quick,*' added onfc of the fiercest, “for wo shall not make much ceremony” “Nevertheless, 1 hope you may. You grant mo a hearing! Know, then, that although lam iho wife of tho richest gentleman in the country, yet the wife of the meanest beggar cannot be more un happy than I am. My husband is one of the most jealous and niggardly fellows on Iho earth. I halo , him as I halo the , and It has long been tho fervent wish of my heart lo gel out of his clutches, and at the same time pay off old scores. All my servants were his spies, and that follow, whoso business you have done so completely, was the worst of all. 1 am scarcely twenty-one, and 1 flatter myself, far from being ugly. If any of you choose to lake mo along with you, I*ll accompany you lo tho woods or lo the village alo*houso. Nor shall any of you have reason lo repent sparing my life. You are in o well stored mansion, but it Is impossible that you should bo acquainted with all its secret corners. These 1 will show you, and il 1 1 do not make you richer by six thousand dollars, i then servo me as you have my chambermaid. 11 Kobbors of this klndoro certainly villains, but, ueverlhoiess, they are still men. Iho wholly un expected tendency of the bareness 1 address, added to tho moro than ordinary beauty of the female, altogether produced a powerful effect on men whoso hands wore yet rooking with blood. 'Uiey all then slopped aside and consulted together In a low tone for some minutes. Tho baroness was 101 l qullo alone, bul she betrayed not the least wish to escape. Sho hoard two or three thus express themselves, “Let’s despatch her and the game will bo up.” She, however, scarcely changed her odor, for the opposition of the others did not cs* capo her aouto oar. One, who was probably the captain of the banditti, now advanced towards her. Ho asked her twice or thrice whether ho might roly on tho truth of What she said—whether she actually wished to bo released from tho tyranny of her husband and go with them, and whether she was ready to resign herself lo one of them—him self, for Instance—during the few peaceful days they could enjoy. Having replied in the affirma tive to all'these qubstlons; hairing not only suffer ed tho warm embrace of tho robber, but returned It (fqr what will not necessity ofccuso,) ho at length said i , , . . “Oomo along, then, and )oad us, around. Tho d—l trust you ladles of rank but wbMl venture for onco. But lot tob 101 l you beforehand, that If you wore twice ns hahdsotob os you are, this weapon should cloaVb f ddr bkul I tho moment wo saw tho least disposition to cacapo. or betray ua." “Then it will tic safe onpbgh; and If this wero tho only condition of toy being pbl 19 death, 1 would outlive you all, and ovop tho wandering Jew himself.” ..... ~. 1 Tho baroness smiled whenwho pronounced those | words, and hastily caught up tho nearest loipp as C.

OUR COUNTRY—MAT IT ALWAYS DB RIGHT—OUT RIQUTOR WRONG, OUR COUNTRY.” CARLISLE, PA., THURSDAY,'FEBRUARY 10, m 3. though eho was as noxious as any of them to col lect the plunder and be gone, conducted the whole company through every apartment, opened every door, every drawer and every chest; assisted in emptying them and packing up the valuables; looked with the utmost indifference oyer the man gled bodies; spoke with the familiarity of an old acquaintance to each one of the horrid troop, and willingly aided with her delicate hands in the most laborious occupation* Plato, money, jewels and other valuables were now collected together, and the captain of the ban ditti was about giving the order for marching when his destined bride caught him by tho arm. “Did 1 nol o lell you,” said she, “that you would not re pent making a friend bf rno and sparing my life. Vou may indeed have yourtilng in places you find open; but it is a pity you cannot come at treasures that are a little concealed. Do you suppose'thaj among coffers so full there are no secret places! Look here, and then you will be convinced to the contrary Shu pointed to a secret spring in the baron’s writ ingdesk. They pressed upon It and out fell twelve hundred dollars. “ Zounds !” cried tho loader of tho robbers, “ now I see you are on incomparable woman./Twill keep you for (his as a duchess.” i "And perhaps better still,” she replied, laughing, " when 1 toll you of one thing more.

We have finished above stairs, now we’ll sea what’s to bo done under it. Como'along with me, I say, into the cellar." Tho robbers followed, but not without precaution. At the entrance of the cellar, provided with a strong trap-door, a nun was posted us scnlinol. Thu baroness did not lake the least notice of this. Shu i conducted the whole troop to the vault o| tho farthest extremity of the cellar. Shu unlocked it, nnd in 1 the corner of this room stood the chest she had dcs- 1 cribed. u Here," said she, giving the captain a ' bunch of keys, *• hero, unlock U and lake what you i can find os a wedding gif), if you con obtain the consent of youi tomfininn. aa rr-ndlly as you Uavo < gained mine.” Tho robber tried one key after another, but none would fit. 110 grow Impatient and tbo baroness seamed still more so. " Lend mo them,** said she, “•! shall find the way sooner. Indeed, if wo don’t make haste tho morning may overtake us. Ha ! the reason why neither of us could unlock it Is because 1 have the wrong bunch of keys. I’ll soon obtain another." She ran up stairs and presently they hoard her coming down, but she wont slowly os if out of breath with the haste she had made. “ I've found (hem!" cried she at a distance. She was within throo steps ol the person placed at llio entrance of tho collar when she made a spring at tho wretch, who as little expected (ho dissolution of the world as such an attack. A single push with her strength tumbled him down tho stairs from top to bottom. In a (winkling she closed the trap door, bolted it. and thus 4fJW tho whole company secured in (he cellar. This wAstlio work of a single moment. In tho next she (low across tho court-yard, and with a candle set (ire to a detached pig. stye. The watchmen in the Bi’ve'hie‘Slafm!“TnTnovO“WfTidh!i W'ftiiHMttttlll were out of their beds, and a crowd of farmers and their servants hastened to the mansion. Tho baroness waited for (hem at ilia gala of the courtyard. “ A few of you," said she, "will bo sufficient to put out this fire or prevent it from spread- ing. But now provide yourselves with arms, which you will And in abundance in my husband’s armory ; post yourselves at tho avenues of the cellar and suf fer not ono of the murderers and robbers shut up in it to escape." Her directions wore obeyed, and not ono of them escaped the punishment duo his crimes. If Papa wot Here* ‘Ab soon as the shrieks of itio drowning passengers were hustled, Clio voice of a lilllo boy wua heard, and il was llion first discovered ihul a cliild, about eight years old, was also clinging lo a ropo u short dis tance off.

A SKETCH OF TURKISH JUSTICE* 1 Tho Cadi goes out in tho morning without making ( known hie intended route; takes his walk With bis i suitable attendants, and stops at the first Bazaar.— Ho scats himself at random in ono of tbo shops, and examines tbo weights, measures and merchandize.— Ho lends an oar to all complaints, Interrogates any merchant accused of infraction of law, and then, without court or jury, and especially without -delay, pronounces Judgment, applies the penalty, and goes on in search of other delinquents. Ic these cases, 1 the punishment is of a different character. Not- ! withstanding tho identity of (ho criaxj, bo cannot i treat tho offending merchant as a ccmmoa thief; , that would have a prejudicial effect on commerce.- 1 The penally is graduated thus: the mildest,confisca- ’ lion, tho moderate, closing tho shop, tho severest, expo* | sure. This last is inflicted m a singular manner. Tho ; culprit is placed with his back aguins; bis shop, and is compelled to raise himself on his toes until tbo! weight of his whale body rests on them ; his car is * then nailed to tho door or shutter of his shop. This j punishment lasts two, foa'i or six hours. It is truo, the criminal may abridge -its duration, whenever ho ■ chaoses to let himself *£>wn , buv ti.u ,„wi ohant is jealous pr his reputation, and nothing but the last necessity would induce him to resemble a thief by (ho mutilation of his car. 1 stopped in front of ono of those wretches, who had just been nailed up. I was disposed to com passionate his case, but Mahommcd told mo,lio was an habitue , and fiat if I would observe his oar close ly, 1 should it woe like a cullender. This changed the current of my sympathies, and as ho was to re gain some tune longer, 1 ceased to regret his suffer ings, and rejoictd in the opportunity of making a sketch. 1 drew forth crayons and paper, and bugged the rest to continue their roulo with M. Mayor, J leaving Muhomned to assist mo in any embarrass-i merit. But Mayer would not quit me ; so wo three remained, and the others proceeded on their way. My picture was composed ; lire criminal nailed by his car, was standing stiff and motionless on tho ex trema point of his great loos; and seated near him, on the sill ul (he dour, was tho guard, charged with i seeing the punishment duly executed, smoking pipe. The quantity of tobacco in tho pipe, seemed 1 to bo graduated to tie lime the punishment was to continue. Around these two personages was a demi-circle of idlers. Wo look our places at one side, and 1 commenced my tusk. AAcr a lime the culprit, finding ho hud nothing to expect from the crowd—among whom, perhaps, lie .-ougnibuj soma of hi a f'liaimncra—hazarded a word to the guard. “ Brother," said he, " one law of our holy Prophet is, (hut men should help one another.” The guard seemed to >lako no exception of llio precept in tho abstract,and continued quietly to smoko. Brother," resumed the patient, *• did you not hear mo 7" Tho guard made no other reply than a largo puff of smoko that ascended to his neighbor’s nose. *' Brother,” still persisted the mao, one of us can aid (ho other, and do a thing acceptable to Mohom cd." The puffs of smoko succeeded each other with a regularity (hat extinguished the poor fellow's hopes. •• Brother," cried the dependent, with a dolorous voice, put a stone under my heels and 1 will give you a piastre.” No reply. 11 Two piastres." A pause. '• Three Diaslrcs." SipUur piastres. "Ten piastres," said llio guard, quietly. The ear and tho purse of (ho man hold a parley, which was visible in tho countenance. At length the pain conquered, and the ton piastres rolled at the feel of the guard, who counted them with great de liberation, pul them in Ins purso, rested his pipe against llio wall, and picking up a pebble about as large as llio egg of a tom-til, placed it under tho mo n's heels. *• Brother,” said the culprit, “ 1 feel nothing under tny feel." •• A stone is (hero, however,” answered tho guard, resuming ins scut and pipe, “ but it is true. 111 at 1 selected il in reference to your price. Give mo a (atari (five franco' und I will place a stone under you so appropriate lo your necessities, that you shall sigh fur it whfin you reach paradise." Tho result may bo anticipated—the guard had his money, and tho merchant his stone. How tho affair terminated I do nut know. Womnit'i Rights aud Wrongs. There has been so much discussion on these topics recently, that il is worth while to examine precisely what tiio real differences between men und women arc. The following embrace u)I tho enactments in which a distinction is made. Women are not subject lo a pull lax, bat man aro subject to a poll lax. Woman aro exempt from military duty, but a cor* tain class of men ore subject to a military duty. Women are exempt from a draft in tuna of war, but a certain class of men are subject lo a draft in time of war. v Women aro exempt from preserving tho poaoo of the Stale, but men aro compelled lo preserve the peace of the Slate.

An aggregate ol $llO,OOO has been pur chased hero, and thus remitted during the present year. |, There is something worthy of a pissing thought in such 'exchange operations,’ as these.

AGRICULTURE IN PENNSYLVANIA* This subject is attracting more and moro atten tion every day in Pennsylvania. Fur a lung sonco ul years, as the common saying is, every farmer worked on his own hook, but a change had taken place recently. Within the Ipal two years a B. ale Agricultural Society and same twenty County Suci. dies have been organised. Highly creditable exhi bitions have boon hold by both Siulo und County Societies, and everywhere the subjeot is attracting the attention of intelligent and able men. These exhibitions have brought to (ho notice uf (ho farmers ol Pennsylvania (ho lines! slock, tho most approved machinery, and (ho best grains, seeds, roots, &c.~ The articles exhibited or others like them have gen erally been purchased, and taken into diflercal sec tions of iho Commonwealth, than that from which they come. Thu of itself lends to great improve ments 5 but whilst this has been done wo still have failed in Pennsylvania, to soma extent, iu applying scionco lo tho pursuits of agriculture. Guv. Bigler, in his Into message, has called alien* tion lo (Ills subject in a very |iuppy manner. Hu points out thethat our soils Hive boon exhausted oi; their productive elements to extent, und suggests tho propriety of appointing a scientific man to analyze them, and suggest remedies lo cor rect tho rapid exhaustion that has been going on ■inco tho discovery of tho country. Other States have doao this with marked success, and it is lime that Pennsylvania, one of tho*,greatest agricultural States of tho old thirteen, should lako stops upon this subject. Wo (irmly believe that moro money Is spent annu ally iu a misapplication ol munuics und supposed restoratives to Iho soil of our State, than would pay all the Stnto (axes. How Ircquuntly do wo hear fur mors say that they have applied sixty, eighty or a hundred bushels uf lime to the aero, of their land, without its producing a visible effect. Tills has been dune by agriculturalists iu uur immediate neighborhood not long since. Now u litllu scientific knowledge would guard farmers against errors of this kind, and poinlout the kind uf restoratives no* ccssary for that particular soil, A few yours ago, tho Hon. fteverdy Johnston, of Baltimore, purchased a tract of land near that city, that would not produce fivo bushels of wheat to the aero, although It hod tho appearance of being land susceptible of high Improvement. Noticing able to produce crops upon it, ho employed the State Client* Ist of Maryland lo anulyxo it. when il was found that it needed bat ono ingredient, (the phosphate of lime.) to. make It produce wheat. Ho, therefore, gave It a good dressing of phosphate, sowed it In wheal, without any ulhor manure, and obtained a crop of thirty bushels to the aero. Hero was a practical il lustration oftho importance of scientific knowledge In agriculture. Hundreds of like examples might bo given, but they would only (end to extend our brtlolo. - | Wo trust, therefore, that tho Legislature may odopt tho suggestions ofGov. Dlgior, and provide for tho appointment of a skilful Agricultural Chemist, and wo fool welt assured that Ilia greatest good will rcaulllo (ho agricultural interests of our State, from tho examinations and imblioatioas to bo mado by this officer.—//arrfsburg Union.
