and'many other dangerous' and remarkable,
illnesses; has'Ouffered great poverty, scoffing,
disparagement, spiteful words, fears and great,
reverses. Yet she has never been revengeful.
A year after the day on which she was first
taken ill, that is, in the year 1514, on a Tues
day, the .17th day of May, two hours before
midnight,. my pious mother, Barbara Diirerin,-
departed in a Christian manner with all sacra
ments, absolved ,by Papal power from
pain and sin: She gave me her blessing,
and desired for me God's peace, and
that I should keep myself from
evil. And she desired also before
drinking' ( , he - sacramental wine) St. John's
blessing ; which she had, and she said the was
not afraid to come before God. But she died
bard; and I perceived that she saw something'
terrible, for she kept hold of the holy water,
and did not speak for a long time. I saw also
how Death came and gave her two great
blows on the heart, and how she shut her
eves and mouth, and departed in great sorrow.
rprayed for her, and had such great grief for
her that can never express. God DO gra
cious to, her! Her greatest joy was always_ •
to speak of God, and to do all'• to
His honor and glory. '' And she was
sixty-three years old when she died, and
I buried her honorably, according to my
means.. God the Lord grant that I also make
a blessed end, and that God, with His hea
venly hoSts,'and - rny father, mother anclfriend
be: present at my end, and the Almighty God
grant uS eternal life. Amen. And in her
death she 'looked still more lovely than she
was in her life."
We will now give a characteristic specimen
from Idr.Wm. B. Scott's translation of Diirer's
Autobiographical Papers (Longman & Co.),
showing a bright passage in one of D iirer's let
ters from Venice to Pirkheimer :
' "1 wish you were" in Venice I There are
many line fellows among the .painters, .who
get more and more friendly with Me; it holds
one's heart up. Well-brought up folks, good
lute-players, skilled pipers, and many noble
and excellent people, are in the company, all
wishing me very well and being very friendly.
'On the other hand, there are • some of the
falsest, most lying ? thievish villains in the
- whole world, Ibeheve, appearing to the un
wary the pleasantest possible fellows. I laugh
to' myself when they try it with me; the fact
is, ,they know their rascality is public, al
\ though one says nothing. The good friends I
'have among the painters warn me I should
not even eat and drink with these others, be
cause of their hostility to me and my church
work, abusing me when they have a chance
and making disturbance. They say my art is
not as the antique, and therefore is not good."
Next followS his statement of the pleasure
he felt in , Giovanni Belliffl's attentions, still
in Venice, and then this very interesting
passage, of which Mr. Scott has found the
key ; it had baffled many students :
• "What pleased me eleven years ago does
not giVe me the same pleasure now,l confess.
Then I praised no one but Master acob; but
I now let you know there :are better Painters
bore, though Anthony Kolb swears there is no
better in the world than ,Jacob. They laugh
at him for saying so, but still lie continues.".
Whocan this Jacob be? was a question for
many, who would gladly' learn the name of
the painter whom Diirer so warmly admired
during one period of his studi es.• Our author
'Conclusively shows that it was Jacob Walsh
(the Master ,of the Saduceus), aman of whose
influence Diirer's early work showed traces.
The association with Kolb in the above pas
sage is nearly conclusive, and explains that
enterprising publisher's esteem for the man
who engraved the great :view of Venice which
be published in - 1498 or 1800. As - Mr. Scott
says, it does not appear that Dr. Campe's
statement that Walsh was dead when thiS let
ter was written is Correct. Diirer's mention
of him in his 'Journal in the Low Countries,'
'in 1520, indicates his recent decease.
INFANTILE OP AERVING.
An Electrical Child
The Memorial de 10 Loire, a respectable
'French journal, gives the following details on
the subject of an infant presenting the. most
remarkable electrical phenomena ever yet re
ported :
• "We are not surprised to 'learn that there
will , be given to the Imperial Academy of
Medicine of Paris an elaborate and intelligent
communication of Dr. C—, of Paris, who,
with two others, went to St. Ursula, and had
the scientific satisfaction of, witnessing the
dying agonies, for the chiktis unhappily dead,
of the poor little sufferer.
would seem that the last moments of the
electrical infant presented some truly aston
flitting Phenomena. For nearly two weeks be
fore its death electrical lights manifested them
selves with a vividness that confounded the
scientific men, who 'only saw lire,' according
to the not very respectful language of our cor-
Te.pOndent.
"NO One e,lOl occupy the space aroundthe
cradle, he says, and the shocks were some
times strong enough to knOck down all who
approachi-d it. Two cats and a dog, boarders
in the house, WPM compelled to leave. This
ritate of things was aggravated from day to
day, and from hour to - flour, until the termina
tiou of the malady, which occurred on the
Bth of November, at half-past eleven in the
evening.
"The infant expired without the least pain
or convulsion, sweetly, in perfect repose, and
as if it sank to sleep ; while the furniture and
occupants of the room were seized with an in
describable agitation.
At the laSt moment the emanations of light
from the body of the dying child became three
times more intense than they had ever been
seen before, and lasted for several minutes
after death. All who were nresent, Ido not
except the physicians, went' away deeply im
pressed by the strange spectacle tit which they
badbeeii the witnesses.
"It is not known, at least to. the public, of
what disease the child died. Dr. C— will
'perhaps tell us in hiS paper.. ' •
"The scientific men, of course; desired to
take away the body for examination. But the
relations were violently oppoSed to this, and
the interment took place in the burial ground
of the village with the usual rites and 'bore-
"For instance, the hair of the wonderful
child was cut off close to the head and divided..
among the relatives and friends. It will prove
a powerful talisman, one might suppose,
against. many evils.
should not be surprised," says our corres
pondent, in.conclusion, "If the scamps of the
neighborhood - should make it a subject of
spectdation

Those appalling clouds or fogs, which
quently herald the coming of the . plague;al
- most noted for the darkness. which
they produce, sometimes give' sensible indica
tion of their morbitlc influence. In the plague
in the year 262, when •five thousand persons
died daily at Rome, kusebius states , that the
air WW 3 so corrupt, as to, royal oik ottieqt*
would. rifernkling, the, "tur b id 'dew. ,on dead
'bodies.' Impressions of serious ligures op,
doors, pritteMs and other articles were ori
tied during the plagues pf 6 . 42 and 600; and,
of like nature were the crucicu/ce, which were
beheld with tuperstitious 'horror in the pesti
lence of 146. A astinking mist" wad noticed,
during the visitation of the Black Death ; the
fatal Angina kialigna among cattle in 1662,
was attended by p blue mist of dew ,on the
herbage and pastures ; and the cholera mist at
Dantzle, in the present century, had a dis
agreeable smell and taSte, so that those who
were ,exposed- to it were forced to wash their
mouths with water.
_ _ _
In the ease , of these. fetid mists and deposi-
tions of mould, the air evidently contains dele
terious matter—tither from its own. diier
ganization or decomposition, or from Mairions
exhalations -which are given forth 'froin the
earth. It is well-known that various exhala-
ODB occasionally take place during earth-
,
quakes. , states that
.a vapor caused.by
an earthquake in Calabria, destroyed six
thousand sheep. During the eruptions in
Italy, in 1329, every 'species of ,animals, in
chiding the birds in' the air, Perished in great
numbers. In like manner the earthquake
in Jamaica in 1690 produced a general
sickness; so that three thousand per
sons, of those who bad survived the earth
quake, perished' by the ; subsequent pesti
lence. Among other well-recorded instances
of . this , escape, or belching forth of
vapors frointhe - earth during earthquakes, it
is, stated, tliat'.4 Qpcirto; during the earthquake
of 1755, the river, opened and seemed to dis
charge an immense quantity of air—manifestly
gases which , burst :forth from the earth by
momentary crevices in , the 'bed of the river.
Previous to the earthquake in Calabria in 1698,
the sea wore a very unusual appearance ; those
Who Italie seen a lake during a viblent shower
of rain, says rather Kircher, May have an idea
of this very extraordinary agitation of the sea's
surface. As there was neither wind nor rain
at. the — finae, the phenomenon could only
,be
ascribed to an escape of air or gaseous,
Vapors from the bottom of' the sea, A similar
phenomenon has been observed during visita
tions of pestilence, the surface of ponds be
corning mottled or bubbling .from an escape
of vapor, which would be invisible when
eking place on solid land. An instance of
this kind was observed at Havre, in August,
1832, when the cholera prevailed in France.
The citadel of Ila.vre is surrounded by a deep
ditch or fosse ; and it was observed by many
persons that the water in the fosse suddenly
changed its odor and became muddy, while
bubbles of air rose' to the surface, causing an
appearance ofebullition. At the same time the
fish, chiefly eels, which usually remain at the
bottom,' were seen to spring above the surface
of the water with a convulsive moietrient, and
then to drop again languid and heavy; and iu
a few hburs the surface of the fosse was
covered with , dead flsli. The - adjoining sea
was likewise affected lay this poisonous influ
ence, for the shore was covered with a quantity
of dead fish. It was immediately after this
phenomenon that the cholera broke out in
Havre.
When the scourge of a great pestilence falls
on the human species, it is often the case that
the beasts of the field, the fish of the sea and
rivers, andeven the plants and crops of the
earth are afflicted to an unusual extent with
disease. • Webster baStemarked that pestilence,
murrain and faniine occur simultaneously.
This was certainly_ Jhe case as regards the
earliest great pestilence of which •we have a
record; for as stated in Scripture, the plague
of blotches and blains; murrain of beasts, and
the blight producing a dearth of cern, all
visited Europe in close succession. • Let
us note some other instances. In A. D.
1222, a pestilence which destroyed
one hundred thousand persons raged
in Scotland, and simultaneously, multitudes of
dead fish were washed ashore on the British
coasts. "In 1240," says Webster, "mortal dis
eases prevailed," and authors relate that the
fish 'on the English coast had a battle, in which
eleven whaleS and a multitude of other fish.
were slain and east ashore. "The cause, to
which this phenomenon was ascribed," he
adds, "althotigh ludicrous enough, ; is import
ant; for it strengthens modern cbservation
that when, pestilential diseases . prevail on the
surface of the earth, fish often perish beneath
the waters." During the Black Death, espe
cially, a pestilential influence affected all
kilid,clf the lower animals, as well as man. A
fatal iiittr,rain broke out, and in England three
thousand - deep died in one pasturage alone ;
and in this case, as also during the murrain in
West Africa, it is said that both the birds and
beasts of prey refrained from touching the car
casses. At the same time immense quantities
of dead fish were cast ashore; whose bodies
were found to be covered with blotches. The
birds of the air likewise 'died.. And Dimer
broeck also states, as a fact'which he freqUently
observed, that whenever the birds confined in
cages died, the inhabitants of the house were
invariably attacked shortly after by the plague,
It seems as though the cause of the grand
epidemics that from time to time desolate the
world lies beyond the sphere of human action,
and is to be found in a morbific disturbance, or
sickening in the earth itself. Unquestionably,
those great plagues, like common diseases, are
intensified in their severity by defective sani-
Lity arrangemeut.s, and are propagated by con
tagion to some extent beyond the actual zones
or region of morbific telluric action; but still
unlike smallpox, typhus and some other dis
easeswhose origin may be ascribed wholly to
vicious conditions of human , life—the occur
rence of those great earth-born epidemics is
wholly beyond the control of man. They are
deadly influences, of cosmical origin—mala
dies which swoop down upon mankind as
from a higher world almost beyond his ken—a
morbific breath which sweeps over the face of
earth, and which, although exhaling from our
globe, has its exciting cause in the varying
movements and conditions in the far-off world
of orbs which surround us.

[Fronp the st. Pan] Prose of Nov, 24,1
It is surprising bow many invalids who come
to Minnesota to get relief from , pulmonary
troubles, think that the fact of being in the
State is all-sufficient to cure them. They sit
over hot 'stoves in poorly ventilated, smoke
clouded rooms. They sleep in air-tight apart-
Merits. They play billiards till late hours.
They talk theniselves hoarse. They take long
rides 'at the most unfavorable hours of the day.
They are irregular about their meals. They
call upon a doctor once and neglect him there
after. They eat food that ruins their ktom
achs. They soak themselves with whisky, and
generally end up with a terrible hemorrhage.
How utterly useless to come to Minnesota
unless one expects to. breathe its pure, tonic
air. The invalid whois fit to come here at all,
ought to be, in the open air at least live,, or,
six • hours each day. Walking may be too
'severe exercise, but riding always does good.
Oxygen, oxygen, oxygen is what the consump
tive needs. It is for the want of this that he
wastes away and dies. By day and night the .
diseased lungs or the weak lungs demand pure
air. It is in vain to call upon Minnesota to
help one in poorly ventilated, over-heated
apartments. One may as well stay at home,

THE NEWSBOYS' HOME ASSOCIATION.—The
following circular has been issued by the
Managers of the Newsboys' Home :
This association, recently incorporated by
the Legislature pf the State of Pennsylvania,
has purchased the houses No. 913 , and 915
Locust street, andfitted up the building in ac
cordance with the objectdesigned ; and being
- now ready to open the institution for the re
ception of the inmates,' the managers present
an appeal to all who feel interested in the sub
ject for pequniary aid to enable them to carry
out their undertaking.
There are many boys in our large city, who,
through loss of parents, or other causes, are
left without suitable homes and with no one
to care for them, and are thus exposed to many
temptations. These boys fall almost neces
sarily into vagrant habits, and a largo number
of them become idle,. thriftless, and profligate
men, furnishing continual recruits to the ranks
of these human "Wings who are a burden and
a curse to the community in which they live.
'With this evil our association proposes to
deal, by providing for newsboys, and others
who are homeless, a comfortable and well
regulated dwelling-place, where they will be
brought under good influences / and so ...aiued
and'instructed as to. tit them for a better and
more useful life. ~
The institution i fitted up with, school
rooms, dormitories, bath-rooms, and all other
requisites for a comfortable home. We do
not propose, however, to make it an entirely
gratuitous one, thinking it better to encourage
feeling of independence and seit-respect in
the boys by repiring a small payment from
them for meals and lodging,'which will also
aid Somewhat in defraying the necessary ex
penses. As 'the receipts from this source,
however, will be inconsiderable, the support
of the "Home" must depend mainly upon
contributions and subscriptions, and it is in
view of this fact that we now make our ap
peal to the public.
An annual subscription of three dollars
constitutes the subscriber a member of the
association s and the payment of twenty-five
dollars a life member. Larger donations are
of course, greatly needed at the outset, anti
will be therefore additionally , valuable if
promptly given. Contributions May be sent
to the treasurer or to any of the
,inatiagers,
list of whom is subjoined.
The borne will be open to visitors on, Tues
days and Thursdays,. after January 1, 1870,
from 12 M. to 21 1 . M., .

A MATCH AT FRENCH CAuoms
A return game of 200 'points, French three

between Victor Estephe and 'James Palmer
against R H. Nelms and William Rockhill. ,
The first game last week was won • by the
former players by a score of mato 153, and it
is probable that a close and ex - citing contest
will take place to-night. The players are
among ,the best in the state, and as the 'French
game will be played in the , approaching Penn

is an excellent opportunity to judge of their
respective merits.

on Saturday. A gentleman from Philadel

the murderer, was dining at the Herbst Ordi

THE COURTS.
Nisi PI - tins—Justice Williams.—Sainuel H.
Mellinger and Elizabeth Mellinger, his wife,
in right of said Elizabeth, vs. Andrew G.
Cochran,
Joseph Gieserman, William . Sloan,
Samuel Sloan, Sr., and Thomas Campbell.
This was an action to recover 'damages
for an alleged malicious- proseenttott.
Kri. Mellinger alleged that at the In-
Aane,4 Of the defendants , was arrested
and tak e n bgere Alderman 3.10( 711 14"key, and
charged with being a common scold ; that she
was held to answer at Court. A writ of habeas
mlus was then obtained, and upon the hear
ing' before Judge Ludlow she was discharged
after the defendants had been heard.
Mrs. Mellinger was examined this morning;
and testified :that the defeudanot appeared
against her at the. Alderman's and preferred
the charge, alleging that she was
in the habit ofi coming out of her house and
abusing the defcndants,calling them "chuckle..
heads," "smugglers," &e.; that at timed her
tongue went so fast and her voice was so load
that it drowned the noise of the machinery in
the neighborhood. Mrs. Mellinger denied the
truth of all these allegations, asserting that she
never used this language to the defendants or
to any. one else.
At. the close of the plaintiff's cafe the de
fence asked for a non-snit as to all the defend
ants except Mr. Cochran, the others merely
-being witne:ses; , Mr.Coehraii having obtained
the warrant.
For the plaintiff it was contended that the
defendants could not protect themselves under,
the plea of being 'witnesses, AS they were.
volunteers, not bring subpoenaed.
The Cuba refused the non-snit, suggesting
that as all the defendants could be examined
as witnesses, nothing was gained by the non
snit, with reference to witnesses.
The defence set-up that the prosecution was
without malice ;. that it was commenced for
the purpose of securing Kite peace of the neigh : -
11°11100d. She was, in tact, a common scold,
walking up anti down the street - abusing
everybody, espeeially Mr. Cochran, her con
duct tom arils him and those iu his employ in
terfering with his bust
Mr. Cochran - was called as a witness, and
testified that his place of business was 'on
Lombard street, above Third, opposite to Mrs.
Mellinger's house ; he had been informed by
the men in •his employ in the thstillery that
she annoyed them ; that when they went to
the windows they were assailed by her in the
use of offensive language; this continued for
almost a year ; on one occasion the witness.
was met on the street by. Mrs. Mellin
ger and called a thief and a scoundrel;
on another occasion,on a Sunday morning, he
.was standing in front of the distillery, with
the otherdefendant, (except Campbell);
Mrs.
Mellinger came upon her doorstep and made
such a noise as to attract the attention of pee , -
ple in the neighborhood; she Used abusive
language; she said: "you scoundrel, I'll put
you away from there; you are making
fun of me." She had called him
"a loafer." On another occasion, when
the witness was at Front and Walnut, where
Mrs. Mellinger Was standing with her sister,
and remarked, "there is Andy Cochran." She
has the reputation of "being very busy with
other people's business." The witness also al
leged that Mrs. Mellinger on one occasion
followed a dray, containing whisky, from his
distillery to Front and Walnut, at six o'clock
in the morning.
The cross-examination of Mr. 'Cochran was
directed to showing that a suit was
. pending
in the U. S. District Court, involving. Mr.
Cochran, the counsel stating that, his object
was to show motive for the prosecution
against Mrs. Mellinger, Mr. Cochran thinking,
that she was interested in the prosecution
against him, and he therefore wished to put
her away.
The case is still on trial.

As the matter of a canal across the Istllllll3B of Darien
was pa rely a matter of great commercial interest, it had
been thought better to carry it to the. Committee on
Commerce.
Mr. Lynch suggested that that part of the President's
west age referring to navigation interests belonged prop
erly to a Select Committee on that subject.
Mr. Schenck said he had two reasons for preferring its
reference to the Committee on Commerce—tirk, because
that was a standing committee, and preference was'
usually and properly given to such committee; and
second. because he understood a select commit tee to have
beemereated for the, purpose of looking into the causes
of the oedine of shipbuilding and navigation.
Mr. Wood inquired whether Congress could begin n
consider the question of the inter-beeanie canal until
there was a treaty made, and whether the Committee on
Foreign Affairs was not theproper committee for the
considerution.of a, question of that character.
Mr. Schenck supposed Congress might consider the
subject before any additional treaty stipulations were
entered into other than those now existing.
Mr. Wood desired to have read the resolution referring
to the inter oceanic canal.
The resolution was read as follows:
Resolved, That so rune hof said message and documents
as relates to commerce and navigation, to an inter
oceanic canal, to the regulation of passenger shipe, and
to the protection of passengete, be referred to the Com
mittee on Commerce • •
'Sir. Wood suggested that the subject of the inter
oceanic canal should he , referred to the Committee on
Foreign affaint, as it involved the question of a treaty,
Mr. Schenck said that in preparing that resolution it
with a subject of eomg thought as to what committee
that. particular question should go.
Thero was new a sufficient understanding and agree
ment between the Government of the United State+ and
the countries on the Isthmus for the authorities of this
Government to send out a surveying party, which had
already sailed, or was about to sad.
Mr. Wood said ho understood that there was an agree
ment so far as a survey was concerned, but there was no
concession of a right of way.
r. O'Neill expressed the opinion that all the subjects
embraced in the resolution came within thejurisdiction
of the Committee on Commerce, and that in feet the func
tion of the Special Commitfee ou Navigation interests
were ended or should be. There had been no necessity
for the erention of that committee in the first
instance the Committee on Commerce being ready and
anxious et all times to perform its duty,
Mr. Lynch replied that the special committee had been
created with the assent of most of the members of the
Committee on Commerce, mid that by Om terms of the
resolution it was not required to report before the se
cond Monday iu January.
Removed the reference to that special committee of
that portion of the Presidents message relating to navi
gation.
The motion was rejected.
Mr. Jones (Kentucky) inquired of Mr. Schenck,
whether the subject of the recognition of belligerent
rights. to the Cuban patriots had been specially re-.
ferred.
Mr. Schenck replied that it went with all other mat
ters relating to foreign affairs to the Committee on For
eign Agairs. Ile knew of no other committee to which
it could be properly referred.
The committee rose and the resolutions wore reported
to the House and were adopted.
Mr. Dawes introduced a bill to reorganize tho Trea
sury Department and dx the pay of its officers, remark
lug thatlve did not consider himself committed to its pro
vision, but introduced It at the request of others, Re- .•
ferred to the Committee on Appropriations.
Mr. Butler (Mass.) Introduced a bill to repeal, the
tenure of office 'act. Referred to the Judiciary Coln.'
Mr. Rill Introduced a bill abolishing the franking
privilege. Referred to the Post Office emmitittee.
