A military correspondent of the London Times, who appears to have attentively examined the ca pabilities of defence of Constantinople in cases of attack, gives the following description of them It requires a.very favorable wind or the assistance of steamboats to enable a fleet to penetrate into the Dardanelles. The mail boat takes sixteen hours from the entrance of the strait to the Golden Horn, the port of Constantinople. The fortifications rais ed at the Dardanelles have, moreover, added still more formidable defences to those created by na ture. Two formidable batteries, well armed, are erected at the very entrance of the strait at the point at which the waters of the Black Sea fall in to the Mediterranean. These batteries are called ' Seddil-Balsar ' and Kumkalessi.' The system of batteries on the two sides is continued in the strait itself. These batteries are mounted with four hun dred guns, and served by a brigade of artillery, com manded by a Pacha. A regiment of the brigade is lodged in barracks on each side and well exer cised at handling their guns ; for in is well known the artillery is the best corps the in Turkish army. Among the guns by which the passage of the Dardanelles is defended there is one which deserves _particular notice. Such guns bear the name of 'kemmerliks in Turkey, and cast stone balls of the weight of ten quintals. The charge of gunpowder is nearly one quintal. The battery in which the kemmerliks are placed is called Sulta-mijets,"Bat tery of the Sultan.' It is situated on the Asiatic side, near the residence of the Pacha who commands the brigade. 'it is the largest battery at the 'Dar danellei. It contains one hundred pieces of artil lery. Opposite to it, on the European side, are two -batteries, the Namaia,' placed side by side with the Kilu Bahar,' with eighty-six guns. The lat ter contains the largest piece of artillery in Turkey. It is a kemmerlik which casts stone balls of twelve quintals weight. The point on which these batte ries is erected is the narrowest in the Dardanelles. Any ships which should endeavor to force the strait would consequently have to pass under the cross fire of two hundred pieces of artillery, without count ing all the others which they might meet in their passage. The Dardanelles could stop a. French or English fleet which should endeavor to reach Con stantinople. It is through her that the combined fleets of Great Britain and France must pass to arrive at the capital or beyond it, to protect it on the side of the Bosophorus and the Black Sea. It is through the Bosophorus, which forms the North ern maratime gate, that the Russian fleet, coming from Odessa, would,have to enter. Now, let us see what are the means of detence on the side of the Bosphorus and the Black Sea.— This; is the most important object under existing circumstances. It is the point the most menaced, because it is by that the Russian fleet will arrive from Sebastopol, in case it should make a serious attempt by sea to take possession of the capital of Turkey. The Russian fleet in the Black Sea is composed of thirteen ships of the line, of which six are 120 guns, eight frigates of 60 guns, six corvet tes and twelve vessels of inferior size. This fleet is supplied with a park of artillery of large calibre, but it is deficient in steamboats, which renders its revolutions difficult, and might become dangerous, particularly in the neighborhood of the Bosphorus. The navigation of the Black Sea offers in fact much ' danger. The winds are inconstant in that sea.— They cannot be depended on for many days in suc- I cession. The wind varies from one point to anoth er, and raises such a swell that a fleet at sea could with difficulty escape, for there is in fact no harbor on the Asiatic side, and Varna is the only port on the European side capable of receiving ships of a large tonnage. But Varna is a very strong place belonging to Turkey, and to which the Russinns could not have access easily. Tue Black Sea is, moreover, freqUently 4il suddenly covered with a log, so thick, that it ix impossible to see one hun dred yards ahead, and consequently large ships nav igating together run the risk sf falling foul of each other or of running on the shoals. The banks of the two sides of the Bosphorus are covered through. out the year with the wrecks of ships arid dead bodies the sea has thrown up. Numerous modes of defence have been created, moreover, by artificial means, to defend the entrance of the Bosphorus. There are 21 batteries, well arm ed, on both banks. Each of those batteries forms a small stone fortress, provided with barracks, powder magazines, and a mosque, and behind each is a small village. The batteries are placed partly in the Bosphorus, opposite each other, so that a ship attempting the passage would be exposed to the cross fire of both batiks. Two others are situated out of the 80 - sphorus, on the European side, and two on the Asiatic coast of the Black Sea. The two batteries erected at the extremities of the points of the Bosphorus are provided with the light houses (feners,) and are for that reason called, that on the Asiatic side of 'Anatoli Fener,' and that in Europe `Rumili Fener.' The Pasha at the head of artille ry of the Black Sea resides at Rumili Fener, and his house commands an extensive view of .the sea. In the Bosphorus itself; close to the entrance are eight batteries, four on each side. Those are the batteries chiefly for defence. They contain one hundred and sixty-five guns of the largest size.-- They are placed in the narrowest part of the strait where the width does, not exceed fifteen hundred yards. The waters of the Black Sea rush through this passage with impetuosity, and its navigation is rendered still more dangerous by the shallowness of the water in one spot - , where the vessels, in order to avoid the shoals, are obliged to approach within two hundred-yards of the Asiatic batteries, so that a fleet which should attempt to force an entrance would be literally riddled by shot. Further on in the strait this system of batteries continues. Some are placed on a level with the ground, so as to sweep the surface of the sea and others are erected on the summit of rocks, plnng ng their fire on the ships. The guns are mounted on a stone platform, in order to obviate the incon veniences occasioned in manwuvering them by the changes in the temperature. Above each battery is a wooden tower of a symmetrical construction, surmounted by a long pole for the flags. These poles serve as telegraphs for the transmission of or ders along the whole line of the Bosphorus. When a ship of the. Ottoman navy passes, the battaries sa lute her by hoisting a flag bearing the crescent and a star. The Sultan sometimes comes to breathe the sea air in one of his palaces on the Bosphorus. All the batteries then hoist a large banner bearing a white sun on a crimson ground. A brigade of artillery is specially charged with the service of the batteries along the Bosphorus and Black Sea, and another is entrusted with the defence of the Dardanelles. It consisted of two reg iments of six companies of one hundred and fifty men each, in all eighteen hundred artillery men,— These artillerymen are well drilled, and were dr ganized by the Prussian Colonel Kuckskowsky, as sisted by a number of non-commissioned officers he had brought with him. It will be seen by this summary description of the fortifications of Constantinople, that the capital of the Turkish empire, even if abandoned to itself, would not be so easily conquered. The• elements, the approach to the Bosphorus on the side of the Black Sea, the dangerous passage of the straits, the fortifications constructed by the Turks, the nume rous batteries erected on both sides of the channel, and the 451 guns mounted on them, served by good artillerymen, are means of resistance against which. in all probability, the Russian fleet would fail. If we add to these the Turkish fleet, 'and, in case of need, the English and French fleets, it will be easily believed that Constantinople is not yet on the eve of falling into the hands of the Emperor Nicholas, even though he should fling away his mask and declare openly his secret designs. The Emperor himself has said one must have strong teeth to crack such nuts; and the question. is, does he believe that he has the requisite set ? He CAI beat answer that question; but my opinion now, as in the beginning of this question, is, that so long as England and France are united to protect Tor key.from aggression, Russia will be powerless to as sail her. It is not alone England and France that are interested in protecting Turkey from ruin.-- All Europe is equally so in maintaining its own equilibrium. The success of that aggression would be followed by a general war, and Europe wishes for peace. Little Bessie; • OR MISS PRIM'S MODEL SCHOOL School is out! What stretching of limbs; what unfettering of tongues and heels; what tossing up of pinafores and primers; what visions of marbles and hoops, and dolls, and apples. and candy, and ginger bread ! How welcome the fresh air; now bright the sunshine; how tempting the grassy play ground! Ah, there's a drop of rain—there's another, and an other; there's a thunder clap. - . Just as school is out, how prosoking!" echo a score of voices; anti the pouting little prisoners hudd,e together iu the school house porch, and console themselves by swap ping jack-knives and humming tops, and telling marvellous stories of gypsies and giants; while Miss Prim, the dyspeptic teacher, shakes her head and the ferule, and declares that the tormer will "fly into fifty pieces;" upon which some of the'boys steal out of doors and amuse themselves by sounding the pntldles with their shoes, while others slyly whittle the desks'or draw caricatures, on their slates, of Miss Prim's long nose. ip, drip—spatter, spatter! How the rain comes down, as it it could'nt help it; no prospect of hold ing up." Here comes messengers from anxious mothers, with India rubbers, extra tippets, and umbrellas; and there's a chaise at the door, for Squire Lenox's little rosy daughter; and a wag on for the two little Prince girls; and a stout Irish girl, with a blanket shawl, to carry home little .Minnie May, who is as fragile as a lilly and just as sweet. And there's a servant man for Master Simpkins, the fat dunce, with the embroidered jacket, whose lather owns the "big Hotel and wishes his son to have a seat all by And now they are all gone;—all, save little Bes sie Bell, the new scholar,—a little four-year-old-er, who is doing penance over in that corner for "a misdemeanor." Bessie's mother is a widow. She has known such bright, sunny days, in the shelter of a happy home, with a dear arm to lean upon! Now, her sweet lace is sad and care worn, and when she speaks her voice has a heart quiver in it; but somehow, when she talks to you, you do not notice that her dress .is faded, or her bonnet is shabby and rusty. You instinctively touch your hat to her, and treat her very courteously, as if she were a fine lady. As I said before, this is little Bessie's first day at school; for, she is light and warmth add sunshine to her broken-hearted mother. But little Bessie must have bread to eat. A shop-woman offered her moth er a small pittance to come and help her, a part of every day; but she must not bring her child; so Bes sie must go to school, to be out of harm's way, arid her mother tells Mrs. Prim, as she seats her on the hard bench, that "she is very timid and tender-heart ed; and then she kisses Bessie's little quivering lip, and leaves her with a heavy heart. Bessie dare not look up, for a few minutes;—it is all very odd and strange, and if she were not so frightened she would cry aloud. Bye and bye she gains a little courage, and peeps out from beneath her drooping eye-lashes. Her little pinafore neigh bor, giving her a sweet smile, it makes her little sad heart so happy, that she throws her dimpled arms about her fleet( and says, (out loud) 'I love you." Poor, affectionate little Bessie! she didn't know that was a 'misdemeanor,' nor had she ever seen that bug-bear, a "School. Committee." Miss Prim had; and Miss Prim never wasted her lungs talking; so, she leisurely untied her black silk apron from her virgin waist and proceeded to make an African of little Bessie, by pinning it tightly over her face and head—an invention which herself and the "Commit tee" considered the ne plus ultra of discipline. Bes sie struggled, and said, "she never would kiss any boey—never—never,"—but Miss Prim was inexor able, and, as her victim continued to utter smoth ered cries, Miss Prim told her "that she would keep' her after the other children had gone home." One class after another recited; Bessie's sobs be came less loud .and frequent, and Miss Prim flatter. ed herself now that they had ceased altogether, that she was quite subdued, and congratulated herself complacently upon her extraordinary talent for "breaking in new beginners." And now, school being .done, the children gone, her bonnet and India rubbers being put on, and all her spinster 'fixins" settled to her mind, visions of hot tea and buttered toast began to float tempting. ly through her brain and suggest the propriety of Bessie being released. "Bessie!"—no answer.—"Bessie!"—no reply.— Miss Prim laid the ferule across the little fat shoul ders. Bessie didn't wince. Miss Prim unpinned the black apron, to confront the face that was bold enough to defy her and "The Committe." Little Bessie was dead. Well;—there was a pauper funeral, and a report that a child had been "frightened to death at school;" but Bessie's mother was a poor woman; consequent ly the righteous Committee 'didn't feel called upon to interfere with such idle reports." FANNI Futer. A MAN or TASTE.-A writer in the last Harper gives a thrillitig account of his adventures with Kit Carson over:the Rocky Mountains and through the desert. At one interesting period of the j utney, the party were out of food and had to take to horse flesh. He dais argued the question, horse flesh or no horse flesh," and gives us an account cot how he liked it: To eat, or not to eat, became " the question, " and after due consideration. Hnnger arguing the case on one side, with strong Necessity for an ad vocate, and Fastidiousness taking the opposite, with Prejudice for backer, I came to the conclusion that I would not and could not eat horse flesh. In ac cordance with this valorous decision, although up on our arrival at camp, a horse, (lean, old, and de cidedly tough) was actually killed, cut up, and freely eaten of, I alone stood aloof, and went sup perless to bed. But it was all in vain ; for Starva tion is a weighty reasoner, and Hunger gained the day at last. I stood out like a Trojan for eight and forty hours, and then " gave in " with as good grace as possible, and, more than a week ate horse flesh regularly. Perhaps the reader would like to know how it tasted. I can only say that it was an old animal, a tough animal, and a sore backed animal, and, upon the whole—l prefer Beef. "THAT COUNTRY IS THE MOST PROSPEROUS, WHERE LABOR COMBS I GREATEST REWARD."--Buthanan. CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBERO, 1853. Cecile Gray. Alas for love! if THU BE ALL, And NOUGHT BEYOND, oh ! earth ! "Tie a girl. sir; my lady has a daughter." "Heaven be praised!" said the discontented lath er of sax unruly boys. "Now I have something gentle to love. Small comlort to me, those boys; house topsy turvy from morning till night, with their guns, fishing tackle, pointers, setters, hounds, spaniels, and what not: Tom's college bills per fectly ruinous—horses, oysters and cigars all:lump ed under the head of et ceteras; I understand it all —or my purse does. But this little gentle girl!— climbing upon my knee, and making music and sunshine in the house, with her innocent face and silvery laugh, the little human blossom of my life's rough, thorny way-side, she'll make amends. Am I not the happiest husband in the world; my heart shall find a resting place here. She must be high ly educated and accomplished. I shall spare no pains to effect that. Ah, I see, after all, I shall have a happy old old age." Very lovely was little Cecile! She had her mother's soft hazle eye and waving auburn hair, and her father's Grecian pro file. There was a winning sweetness in her smile, and grace and poetry in every motion. It was a pretty sight! her golden tresses mingling with those silver locks, as she rested her bright head against the old man's cheek. Even 'the boys," could harbor could harbor no anger at her quiet reign! shawound herself quite as closely round their hearts. Then it was a new tie to bind the sunder ed husband and wile together. Something of the old bygone tenderness crept unconsciously into their mannee to each other. It was their idol! and they pressed her rapturously to the parental hearts, for getting she was but clay. Tutors and governesses without limit went and came, before the important selection was made.— Tnen—su many injunctions! "She must not study so much as to spoil her fine eyes; she must only draw a few minutes at a time, lest it should cause a stoop in the shoulders;' she must not go out in the sun, for fear of injuring her complexion. She was told every hour of the day of her rare perfec tion; now her attitude—then her eyes—then her shape; shedancesi like a fairy—sang like a seraph, in short needed wings only to make her an angel. Every servant in the house knew his or tier for tune was made, if Miss Cecile was pleased, and shaped their course accordingly. If "the boys" were doubtful of the success of a request, Cecile was em ployed secretly to negotiate. The reins of house hold government were in those little (airy fingers. No wonder that little Cecile thought herself om nipotent. No wonder she stood before "Psyche," arranging with a maiden's pride, those glossy ring lets. Small marvel that she saw with exultation those round and polished limbs, and pearly teeth, and starry eyes, and tossed her bright curls in tri umph at the hearts that were already laid at her feet. Her mirror but silently repeated the voice of flattery that met her at every step. Cecile was beautiful. The temple was passing (air; but ah, there rose from its altar no holy incense to heaven. 'Those bright eyes opened and closed like the flow ers, and like them drak in the dew and the sunlight, regardless of the giver. It was Cecile's eighteenth birth day. The most extensile preparations had been made to celebrate it. She was to electrify the beau monde with her debut. A gossamer robe, fit for a Peri, silvery and light, floated soft as a fleecy cloud around those matchless limbs. Gems and jewels would have been out of place beside those starry eyes. Nature's simplest offering; the drooping lilly, blended with her tresses. The flush of youth and hope were on her cheek; her step was already on the threshhold of that brilliant, untried world which her beauty was to dazzle and to conquer. Other sylph-like forms there were, and bright laces that made sun light in happy homes, but the peerless Cecile quench ed their beams on that happy birth day. The proud father looked on exultingly. -Beau tiful as a dream,' echoed from one end of the sa loon to the other. His eye followed her, noted ev ery glance of admiration, and then he said to him seli, "the idol is mine." Say you so, loud father? See, her head droops heavily—her limbs relax—she has fainted! They bathe her pale face and power less hands, then they bear her to the dressing room, and she lies on that silken couch like some rare piece of sculpture. The:revellers disperse; the gar 'ands droop; darkness and silence reign where mer ry feet tripped lightly. The physicihn sits by the bedsidd of his fair patient, and with mistaken kind ness he says to the frantic parents—" She will be easier soon—she will be free from pain to-morrow;" and then he leaves her with the anxious watchers. Morning dasi-ned. "Yes, Cecile was better," so her father said; and she sat up, and put her fair arms around his neck, and called him, "her own dear father r and he smiled through his tears, and parted the bright damp locks from her brow, and said "she should have another ball, gayer than the last, and look lovelier than ever;" then her mother laid a bandeau of pearls across across her pale fore. head, and said that they became her passing well." Cecile smiled faintly when she replaced them in their case, and then her mother came hack again to the bedside. Ah what fearful shadows in that momentary in terval, bad crept over that sweet face? 'Cecile ! Cecile!' said the bewildered woman, shivering with an undefinable terror, 'speak to me Cecile! what is it! 'Am I dying mother?' 'Oh mother! you never taught me how to die!' In the still grey dawn, at sultry noon, in the hushed and starry night, long after that bright young head was covered with the violets, rang that plain tive, reproachful voice in the parental ear, 'You never taught me how to die' GOOD-DrE.—The editor of the Albany Register comments thus upon this simple word, so common and yet so full of solemn and tender meaning: "How many emotions cluster around that word. How full of sadness, and to us how full of sorrow it sounds. It Is with us a consecrated word. We heard it once within the year, as we have never to hear it again. We spoke it on an occasion such os we hope never to speak it again. It was in the chamber of death, at the still hour of night's noon. The curtains to the windows were all closed, the lights were shaded, and we stood in,the dim and sol emn twilight, with others at the bed of the dying.— The damps of, death were on her pale young brow, and coldness was on her lips, as we kissed her for the last time while living. 'Good-bye, my daugh ter,' we whispered, and ' Good-bye, father,' came faintly from her dying lips. We know not if she ever spoke more, but 'Good bye,' was the last we ever heard of her sweet voice: We hear that last sorrowful word often and often, as we sit alone, busy with the memories of the past. We hear it in the silence of night, in the hours of nervous wakefulness, as we. lay upon our bed thinking of the loved and the lost to us. We hear it in our dreams, when her sweet face comes back to us as it was in its loveliness and beauty. We hear it when we sit beside her grave in • the cemetery where she sleeps alone, with no kindred as yet by her side. She was the hope of our life, the prop upon which to lean when age should come upon us, and life should be running to its dregs. The hope and the prop are gone, and we care not how soon we go down to sleep beside our darling, be neath the shadow of the trees in the city of the dead." A PHOPEINCI—The subjoined extract Irom o'- Meara's "Voice from St. Helena," will be read with interest at the present juncture of affairs between Russia and Turkey "In the course of a few years, "said Napoleon, " Russia will have Constantinople, the greatest par t of Turkey, and all Greece. This I hold to be as certain as if it had already taken place. Almost all the cajoling and flattery which Alexander prac ticed towards me was to gain my consent to effect this object. I would not conaeht, seeing the equi librium of Europe would be destroyed. In the na tural course of things Turkey must fall to Russia. The greater part of her population are Greeks, who you may say are Russians. The powers it would injure, and who would oppose it, are England, France, Prussia and Austria. Now as to Austria, it will be easy for Russia to engage her assistance by giving her Servia and other provinces bordering on the Austrian dominions, reaching near to Con stantinople. The only hypothesis, that France and England may be allied with sincerity, will be in order to prevent this. But even this alliance would not avail; France, England and Prussia cannot prevent it. Russia and Austria can at any time effect it." Gethsemane. [The places which our Lord consecrated while on his earthly mission, have a peculiar interest to the modern traveller. On a visit to the Dead Sea, we have the following account of the Garden of Gethsemane. We copy the following beautiful de scription of it from the Puritan Recorder.] " We spent much time in visiting over and over again the interesting ldcalities in and around Jeru salem; Above all others, the spot least doubted, 'and very tar from the least hallowed, was the Gar den of Gethsemane. It is enclosed by a high stone wall; and when we saw it, the trees were in blos som, the clover upon the groudd in bloom, and al together, in the aspect, and its associations, was best calculated to soothe a troubled spirit. Eight venerable trees, isolated frdm the others, and less imposing ones which skirt the bate of the Mount of Olives, from a consecrated grove, High above on either hand, towers a lofty mountain, with a deep yawning chasm of Jehosaphat between them. Crowning one of them, is Jerusalem, a liv ing city; on the slope of the other is the great Jew ish cemetery, a city of the dead. Each tree in this grove, cankered, and gnarled, and furrowed by age, yet beautiful and impressive in its decay, is a liv ing monument of the affecting scenes that have ta ken place beneath and around. The Olive perpet uates itself; and from the root of the dying parent stem the young tree springs into existence. The 1 1 trees are accounted a thousand years old. Under those of the preceding growth, therefore, the Sa viour was wont to rest; and one of the present may mark the very spot where he knelt and prayed and wept. No cavilling doubts can find entrance here, the geographical boundaries are too clear and dis tinct for an instant's hesitation. Here the Chris tian, forgetful of the present, and absorbed in the past, can resign himself to sad, yet soothing med itation. The few purple crimson flowers growing about the roots of the trees, will give him ample food for meditation, for they tell the suffering life and the ensanguined death of the Redeemer. On the same slope, a little below Gethsemane, fa cing the city, are the reputated tombs of Absalom, Zachariah, St. James, Jehosaphat ; the last, giving its name to the Valley. Some of them are hewn bodily from the rock, and the whole from a re markable group. That of Absalom, in particular, from its peculiar tint, as well as form. it' style of architecture, reminded us of the sepulchral monu ments of Petra. It is eight feet square surmounted by a rounded pyramid, awl there are six semico lons to each face, which are of the same mass of the body of the sepulchre. The tomb of Zacha riah is also hewn square from the rock. and its tour sides form a pyramid. The tomb of Jehosa phat has a handsome carved door! and a portico with lour columns indicates the sepulchre where St. James, the apostle, concealed himself. It was in the Valley of Jehosaphat that Mel chisedec,' king of Salem, met Abraham on his re turn from defeating the five kings of the Valley of Siddin. In the 'depth of this ravine, Moloch was worshipped beneath the temple of the Most High, which crowned the summit of Mount Mo riah. In the village of Siloam, the scene of Solomon's apostacy,.the living having ejected the dead, there are as many dwellings in tombs as in houses. Be neath it, and at the base of the Mount of Offences` is the great burial Ground, the desired, final resting place of the Jews all over the world. The flat stones, rudely sculptured with Hebrew characters, lie as the tenants beneath were laid, with their, fa ces towards Heaven. In ti,e village above it, and in the city over against it, the silence is almost death like,, as in the grave yard itself. Here the voice of hilarity or the hum of social intercourse is never heard, and when man meets his fellow, there is no social greeting. The air here never vibrates with the melodious voice of woman, the dearest ap proach to the celestial sound; but shrouded from head to foot, she flits about, abashed and shrink ing, like some guilty thing. This profound silence is in keeeping with the scene. Along the slope of the hill above the village, the M aster on his way to Bethany, was wont to teach his followers the sublime truths of the Gospel. On its acclivity, a little more to the north, he wept for the fate of Je rusalem. In the garden below he was betrayed; and within those city walls he was crucified. Ev erything is calculated - to inspire with awe, and it is fitting that except in prayer, the human voice should not disturb these sepulchral solitudes. The impression from such scenes, cannot fail to interest every reader of the Gospel narratives.— We gaze upon the daguerreotype, and only wish it were our privilege to tread, in the footsteps of the . Saviour, every inch of ground which is hallowed by some sacred association. SMUGGLING IN CALIFORNIA.—The San Francis co Herald of a recent date relates the following: A vessel had arri'ved from China with a large number of Celestials on board. A revenue officer was as usual placed on board to see that no cargo was landed without authority. Among the pas sengers on board, one jolly-looking old fellow at tracted attention by his extreme portliness. He had, in fact, a stomach of almost Falstaff propor tions ; but somehow or other he did not seem easy. His movements were ungainly and constrained, and the officer approached him and began to poke him jocosely about the paunch, when to his surprise a hollow sound was given back. He repeated his punches, this time for an object, and found John to have a prodigiously hard and unyielding stomach. Here was a discovery. A custom officer on the scent of a smuggler, is like a cat in pursuit of a dainty mouse. John was soon divested of his tu• nic apoprtenances, when Jo! he appeared to have a tin stomach! and further—that it could be detach ed without seriously interfering with his digestion. A post martens examination was held upon the tin corporation, and strange to say it was found full of opium. Whether John insisted that he had eaten it, and its disagreeing with his natural func tions of digestion had compelled him to resort to an artificial receptacle, or whether he " acknowl edged the corn," we now not. At any rate, his entire tin stomach with its contents, were confisca ted as contraband, and will doubtless be sold at auction for the benefit of Uncle Sam's coffers. EARLY MARRIAGES.—EarIy marriages, like pre mature fruit, generally turn out anything but pro ductive except in a race of children which, the pa rents are generally incapable of taking proper care of either through the head, heart or purse. Frank lin was a philosopher, and recommended early mar riages; but the girls and boys of those days were made of different metal from the,how-a-time pro ducts. A cotemporary, who married a "sweet sixteen,' thus gives a daguerreotype:— " She stood beside the altar, when she was six-, teen. She was in love; her destiny rested on a creature in fashionable clothes ; with an empty pocket. lie "came of a good family," and blood you know is something. She looked love as she pronounced the vow. Think of a vow from au burn hair, dark eyes, and pouting lips only sixteen years old. She stood beside the washtub when her twenty sixth birthday arrived. The hair, the lips, the eyes, were not calculated to excite the heart. Five cross young ones were about the house crying; some breaking things and one urging the necessity of an immediate supply of the lacteal secretion. She stop-. ped in despair, and sat down, and tears trickled down her once plump and ruddy cheek. Alas Nancy, early marriages are not the dodge. Better enjoy youth at home, and hold lovers at a proper distance, until you have muscle, limb and heart enough to face the frowning world and a family.— If a chap really cares for you, he can wait two or three years, make presents, take you to concerts, and so on, until the time comes. Early marriages and early cabbages are tender productions." OUR MEIICART RELATIORS.—The New York Times states that orders have been received at Gov ernor's Island, from the War Department, for the immediate transmission to the Rio Giande frontier, of a very large quantity of artillery, ammunition and ordnance stores—more in amount than Gen. Taylor had during his whole campaign. This step, says the Times, has undoubtedly been taken in coo. sequence of the movements of Santa Anna, who is concentrating on the same frontier a very large mil itary force, and . supplying it very largely with the munitions of war. parke & Baker.--Attorneys at LAW.—Samuel Parke and Daniel G.

OFFICE, No. 7 ' 'South FREDERICK Street, BALTIMORE, Md., on the left hand side, going from Baltimore street, 7 doom front the corner.— Be particular in observing the name and number or you will mistake the place. DR. JOHNSTON, Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon- don, Graduate from one of the most eminot Col leges of the United States and, the greaterlsart of whose life has been spent in the Hospitals of Lon don, Paris, Philadelphia, and elseurhere,, has affect ed some of the most -astonishing lures' that were ever known. Many troubled with ringing in the ears and head when asleep,great nervousness, being alarmed at sudden sounds, and bashfulness, with frequent blushing, attended, sometimes, with de rangement of mind, were cured immediately. TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE - - -• Dr. J. addresses all those wlio have injured themselves by private and improper inclulgencies, that secret and solitary habits, which ruin both body and mind, unfitting them for either busbies or society. These are some of the sad and melancholy ef fects produced by early habits of youth, viz Weakness of the }Rick and limbs, Pains in the head, Dimness of Sight, Loss of Muscular Power, Pal pitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous Irrita bility, Derangement of the Digestive Functions, General Debility, Symptoms of Consumption, &c Mentally.—The fearful effects on the mind are much to be dreaded: Loss of Memory, Confusion of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil of Forebo ding, Aversion of Society, Self Distrust, Love of Solitude, Timidity, &c. are some of the evils pro duced• NERVOUS DEBILITY Weakness of the system, Nervous Debility and premature decay generally arises from the destruct ive habit of youth, that solitary practice so fatal to the healthful existence of man, and it is the young who are the most apt to become its Victims front n ignorance of the dangers to which they subject tnemselves. Parents and Guardians are often mis. led with respect to the cause or source of disease in their eons and wards. Alas! how often do they ascribe to other causes the wasting of the frame, Palpitation, of the Hea•,, Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Derangement of the Nervous System, Cough and Symptoms, of Consumption, also those serious Mental effe cts, such as loss of Memory, Depres sion of Spirits or peculiar tits of Melancholy, when the truth is they have been caused by indulging Pernicious bin alluring 'practices, destructive to both Body and Mind. Thus are swept from ex istence thousands who might have been of use to their country, a pleasure to their friends, an orna• Men, to society. WEAKNESS OF THE ORGANS immediately cured and full vigor restored. Oh, how happy have hundreds of misguided youths been made, who have been suddenly resto red to health front the devastations of those terrific maladies which result from indiscretion. Such persons, before contemplating MARRIAGE, should reflect that a sound mind and body are the most necessary requisites to promote connubial happiness. Indeed, without this, the journey thro' life become* a weary pilgrimage; the prospect hourly darkens to the view • the mind becomes shadowed with despair, and filled with the melan choly reflection that the happiness of another be comes blighted with our own.

TO STRANGERS The many thousands cured at this institution within the last ten years, and the numerous im portant Surgical Operations performed by Dr. J., witnessed by the Reporters of the papers and ma ny other persons, notices of which have appeared again and again before the public; is a sufficient guarantee that the afflicted will find a skilful and honorable physician.
