t,; 4 Nllseeltaneous News Items. r Jo ' MAIM IN Nuw Youit.—The New Yor correspondent of Carl Sohurz's new pap the Detroit Post, in a recent letters sways :111 "There are, at present, strong effort, tnadelto give to the radical party a cheap, poptilve organ, representing the policy of the *dodo majority in Congress. The r leads of the Radical party at Washington, .Phila phia, Boston, and New York, favor this p . The new daily morning paper is to be ed The National Press. A company has ben formed, the capital stock of which - will bettloo,ooo,:in shares of SlOO each: Mr.J. Winclibster, the old associate of Mr. Greeley, in the foundation of the New Yorker,in 1834 and for; a time his co-laborer in the Tribune, .will bethe treasurer and managing director. Be haatransferred to the company the ma chinerp and apparatus necessary for the busine4s, and the journal will start with a daily usue of 30,000 copies. Mr. Lorenzo ISherwciod, a citizen of high and influential positioa, is President of the Board of Tras tees. 'hie name of the editor-in-chief is not - yet officially given, but I understand that 461eneral Cluseret, the former editor of the _New Nation, will take that position. The paper will be a folio, half the size of the N. - Y. /farad, and be sold for two cents a copy. The very clear and positive programme laid down for it, begins with the following words: "It is desirable, first, to organize the =asses; secondly, to instruct them politi cally, third, to interest them in the present policy of Congress. To give to the masses a cheap, able, independent paper, in order to counterbalance the influence of the De mocrats, so . carefully exercised, especially on foreignersas a commanding study of the -radical party, and will be a powerful ele ment of success and strength. - THE WIFE OF MR. THOMAS CARLYLE, the eminent author, died on the 24th ult.,under very peculiar circumstances. She was taking her usual drive in Hyde Park, Lon don, when her little favorite dog,which was running beside the brougham, was run over by a carriage. She was greatly alarmed, though the dog was not seriously hurt. Sne lifted the dog into the carriage and the man drove on. Not receiving any call or direction from his mistress, as was usual, he stopped the carriage and dis -covered her, as he thought, in a fit or ill,and drove to St. George's HospitaL When there, it was discovered that she must have been dead for some time. Mrs. Carlyle's health had been for several months feeble, but not in a state to excite anxiety or alarm. Mr. Carlyle was still in Scotland. Mrs. Carlyle was the daughter of Dr. Welch, of Haddington, and a lineal de acendant of John Knox. "'"A. HUMAN CURIOSITY.—The Berlin news papers have the following curious pars „graph "A Hungarian girl, born at Oeden burg, without hands, now twenty years o sage, has been giving some curious represen tations in the Prussian capital. She per forms with her mouth the functions of hands. She sews, embroiders, executes the most delicate work with pearls, even threads her needles and makes knots, all with the tongu, apparently without diffi culty, and certainly without the assistance -of any one. Part of the works thus exe cuted are destined for public exhibition.” Most people will hesitate to believe such marvels until they witness them. 818 ISAAC NEWTON'S HOUSE.—On the .25th ultimo, at the Sheriffs' Court in Lon don, a compensation case, Williams agt. the Metropolitan Railway, was heard. A claim was made for the house in Kensington, - where Sir Isaac Newton 'died on the 18th of March, 1727. The claimant had carried on a school called. Newton's House. The claim was between £4,000 and £5,000; the jury gaye a verdict for £2,110. The same rail way company took Milton's house at. Crip plegate, and now hold Newton's house at Kensington. SiverunAß,.—A most extraordinary occur rence took place along the line of the Nash ville and Decatur railroad, between Col umbia and Pulaski, Tenn., during a thunder storm Friday night. A half mile of the tel egraphydres was-melted, and dividedover that whole distance into small fragments, irregular in shape, and many of them no larger than a buckshot, or a small rifle ball. A 'Yoram man 'and wife arrived• at St. Louis by one of the Mississippi steamers one day last week, with neither baggagenor money to pay the fare. The clerk of the boat seized the wife in payment, and kept her on the boat as security. Whereupon the husband took out a warrant against him for kidnapping. -- A COLORED waiter, named Benjamin, died in a singular manner in New Haven, Con necticut, on. Thursday last. He had a trou blesome corn on one of his feet to which he applied one of those advertised "in fallible salves" and some turpentine. The result was inflammation of the leg, fol lowed by amputation and death in a few bolus. A FOOLISH AraasT.--Disappointment at having two pictures refused by the jury of the Paris Salon has led an artist named Jules Holtzapfell to commit suicide. He wrote to his brother: "The members of the jury do not know me; I have neither friends nor enemies amorist them. So I've no talent, and when a man hasn't talent at forty it is -time to die." A MEMORIAL CATHEDRAL.—About .£17,000 has been subscribed towards the Itotnan Catholic Cathedral which is to be erected in London as a memorial to Cardi nal Wiseman. A subscription of £2,000 has been given anonymonsly;- but it is .generally understood that the donor is Dr. Newman. SENTENCE OF BANK ROBBERS.—The three menwho recently robbed the bank at Cadiz, 'Ohio, have been tried and convicted. Two ; of th.em=-Richard Roe and B. M.

Lately a Chinese mer vbant of that district gave a ball to the Russian inhabitants, which was vary sue 4ceastul. A CURIOUS AccunErrr.—ln Birmingham, England, the other day, a woman acciden tally killed her infant by pressing its head against the front of her dress, in which a needle was sticking. The needle entered the thiid'a head, and caused fatal injuries. PrsoATour.—The value of the fresh fish *sold annually at the various French sea ports is estimated at £1,400,000, but, by the lime it has paid the octroi and other duties, its coat to the consumer is more than quad rupled. THE POPULATION: OF •BOSTON AND ITS ITEIGHEIORHOOD.—TheBoston Traveler says that within a circle of twenty miles of Bos- ton there now lives nearly One-third of the population of Massachusetts, or consider ably over four hundred thousand souls. A TRADE REVIVED.—An Antwerp letter states that the ship Duo de Brabant has just arrived there from India with 3,500 bales of cotton. For the last eight or nine years not a single bale has reached that port direct. CHICAGO WREAT.--An immense quantity of wheat is being shipped from Chicago to Rochester, New York, thus disproving the statements that the huge stock of grain in Chicago was unmerchantable. Wmrmu suffering from severe mental depressiolt, a widow named Egan com mitted suicide at Nashua. N. H. t on Mon day last. Coal Statement.
