Theodore Parker’athurch Abbey Folson),_pfter listening to the discourse, arose in her place near the centre of the house, sud in a clear and distinct voico and animated mannor dcliv ercifthe following discourse: A few yearsemce*l, Abby Folsom,was kidnapped on Boston Common and incarcerated in Leveretl street jail, for addressing tho public mind opon slave ry, intemperance, pauperism and their kindred vices. Yes, imprisoned in Leverett street jail for freedom of speech, in a free laud ; yet no notes were sent to the Clergymen of Boston to pray for my deliverance; no prayers were offered up in tho churches for mo, a poor kidnapped woman hunted on Boston Common bv the bloodhounds ot.tho Jaw, and dragged to Lev* erctl street jail; no, Mr Parker, with oil bis teal for the oppressed nud down trodden ol earth, offered no prayer for me- Henceforward I am opposed to all 1 law, to all organizations at men, whether it be the old 1 organization (meaning tho Garrisonian) or tho new. I 1 g<v gainst stf combinations of men, ail meetings ot men or women when they arc organized with a CttAirman and tfecreisry. They are bad—and their I tendency ib to oppose and destroy r the freedom of I speech. I A few years since a harmless old man whoso white I beard and snowy locksdenuted a long lifo oftotl, and I whose brilliant eye was and is the hsrbingor of gen j iua, was arrested by the myrmidons of the law, and I carried to a Lunatic Asylum. He wav there sur* I rounded by the chains of oppression, and kept from j the light ot day and the free oee of tho organs winch I God had endowed him with. All this, I say, was I done to this moflenstve old man because he was in 1 favor of tho freedom ot speech and sold a ecylho I snathe of his own invention which was not so crook** I ed as the- minds of thoso cruol men who placed him lin bondago. Fam opposed to all such acts of vio** I lenen and perdition. (At thiß momenta young lady I with a charming smile said to Abby, “ Madame, I 1 wish you would stop speaking. lam afraid you will I injure Mr. Parkor and his religious influence in 1)1 is I city.” Whereupon Abby repeated to the audience I what thn pretty lady had said, and then raising her I voice to the highest octave, said,] “I, Abby Folsom, I injure my brother Parker? No I Altnough he did I not pray for me when I was in trouble, I respect j him ond will not hurt the few remain'ng hairs jin his classic and benevolent head.” (Quite a sen* | cation.) {££T The Fennsy/ranian says: We learn from very good authority that Mr. P. T. Barnutn is 00 much enamored ol Philadelphia and its vicinity, that he has purchased a residence hero, and intends after a few months to make it his permanent rcsi dence. He should cage the nightingale hern also. Excepting, perhaps, her native neat m Sweden, she will find no more pleasant resting place in this world. Serious Effect or Waltzing.—Somo highly im» presslonablc young gentleman at the North thus describes the effect hiß waltz bad upon him : : (i At the firet'shrt I thought I was going to hesv* en on a band of music. For tho nest hve nunutoa I appeared to be swimming in a sea of rose leaves with a blue angel. This soon vanished to a delirium of peacock feathers, in which my brain got so mix ed up with low-necked frocks, musk and melody, that I have fed on flutes ever since.” How dizzy the young mao must have been!— It ib a wonder be lived through such a spell. ■ V: .

They were all well, and most of them think that ere another twelvemonth rolls round they will be enjoying the pleasures of home and the luxuries ut the bmoUy City. Jonathan Aitkin intended starting for home in a few days. Ike Old Pittabuigh boys in this vicinity are all convalescent, and are doing as well in the way of mining ns could be expected at this season of the year. They are aveugtm? from hall an ounce to $lO per day. This has been so far a very favorable fill and winter for those engaged in mining on the rivers* but as unfavorable for those in the dry diggings, on account of the scarcity of water. T here has been but very little rain m the mountains this wintor. and from the appearance of the .weather I would Buppo!i6 l tlr>it we will have but very little for months to come.

The following I was not an eye-witnead of, but have it from very good authority that such was actually the case: The inhabitants of a small settlement a short distance from this, like the in«* habitants of moat of the small places,are greatly addicted to the use of intoxicating liquors, at least a greater portion of them. One poor fellow, i by being too intimate with King Alcohol, was called upon to bid farewell to time, and try the realities of another-world. The miners clubbed together, made a rough coffin,, and dug his grave. By the time every thing was ready for the burial (to use a common term in this uncivilized region) they were all pretty well how come your eye out. When they had reached the spot where they iq« tended to deposit the remains of their departed companion, it was thought necessary that there should be a lew words said, and u few verses sung, to-show their regard fur him who was no more. After a few word* were said bv one of them, the song of “ Uncle Ned* was proposed and sung by the company, in real miner style; they then laid their old chum beneath the sod, and adjourned to the grocery, ns they were all getting tolerably dry. But the proceedings of the day did not Btop here. Alter they had returned and got another glass or two ahoad, a quarrel arose between a couple of them, which originated by the singing ..-n ■%* _ \ v ' * FROOI CALIFORNIA. % * V ->v ■ - ■'<' ri «. *. * 1 t l 1 * - ' "s*.'

Seconds being chosen anda couple of , pistols procured,.which were loaded with powder □nd ball, they proceeded to the place, where the supposed bloody scene was to take place. After they had arrived there, and the ground had been measured.off, at the distance of twelve feet apart, they both toolr their respective places, At the moment the word was given they both pulled trigger, but as good luck would have it, but one of the pistols went off, the ball going directly over the head of the person aimed at. The other, enraged at the missfire of his.pistol* turned round to take revenge on his second with the butt of it, hut -was prevented by a person standing close by, who caught his arm ere any damage was done.— After a short consultation, they concluded that thev would both as soon live as-.die—so they dropped the subject; and after it bad been moved, i seconded and earned that they should adjourn trom the.field of battle ime die, they proceeded to the grocery to bury the .past in a bottle of brandy.

NUMBER US HAnnisncno, April 9, 1851 My Dear Post: The bill taxing freight anil travel on the Vori: anil Cumberland Railroad has passed the Legislature, and gone to the Governor. The tax fixed on passengers is ten cents per capita, and on freight three mills per mile.perton. All Pennsylvania aericnltural products are, however, to be free from any tax at all. Ihevv-hole mat* ter contained m this measure was arranged in the House to the entire satisfaction of all concerned, and the bennte. concurred. The Pittsburgh ami Erie Railroad and the Franklin Canal Company had a hearing m the Home today, but the hour of adjournment came * down upon them before they had any filial, vote. I The Senate amendment, which gave. the .right of j i wav along the Latte shore, exclusively, to the Pittsburgh and Krie Company, has been so amend ed in the House as to prevent either company from huddine this road or connecting twill any Ohio improvement. It is quite likely that the Senate will concur, and this will produce the re mit which often follows a fight between two rival interests, to wit. an interiereuce in the btnfe, and an arrest of the partis; up in equal ground, and a stay against luither proceedings; or what is the same thing in most cases, and particularly in this, a total annihilation of botn. Uus result is taken | to portend good fortune for thn .V.ilib'.try and Erie ] 'enterprise- Indeed this company will have the i hone of eonteution between these two dead dogs, to wit. the right of way from Erie to the Ohio line given to it, before the Legislature adjourns, if it can possibly be done. 1 hr- will be tbc final result of the whole matter.

It was his hr*t■appearance at one ol thane places, and from the treatment In? received it will probably he the last. We give the story in lull; M Lardoche, a respectable tradesman appeared vesterdav hciore tribunal of Correctional Police to relate a misadventure which had befallen him at tliehal masque, and to complain of the person who had caused it. He bad, he said, arrived at the a»e nl fitly without ever having been at the bjl masque, and he determined to see the last which took place at the Opera. To disguise himself: so as not to compromise the gravity ol his character, he put on a false nose and a large pair of green spectacles. He was at first bevvil. dcri d by the noise, and when lie .had become some what accustomed to the scene, wondered greatly at the style ul dancing, which was so different to that which was in fashion in his youthful days. Whilst die was encaged ill quiet contemplation, a line woman, disused as a shepherdess, aecosted him. Struck by her magmlicent stature, he courteously replied, and they soon got into a very interesting conversation, She at last asked him la have a dance, mid he consented. The dance concluded.he gallantly offered an ice or a glass of lemonade; hut the ladv scornfully replied, "Lem onade' No! (live me a bowl ol punch! They went Id the cate, and the punch was produced. The lady, he observed, took glass after glass with all the snnt/liam of a trooper, and for hts part he did unt spare the liquor. At laGt he got into such good humor that he, ventured to give the lady a IcvC'i'cjJlle caresses, which she permitted with a sort contusion, w hich was inexpressibly' charming. ‘■Oh!” said he, "my angel! You ate exceeding ly beautiful! Tall as a drum-major, and strong as Hercules'’' “ All, Narcissus! she answered, for he had told her his Christian name—"l feel, tor you a strange sympathy'—your image is forever engraven here)" and. with a languishing look, she placed her hand on her heart. d.I ought not,” 6he added, "to make such a confession; but what, Narcissus, cau a poor weak woman do, when fas cinated ,by such a man as you?’ And, ub she spokeyshe became more languishing than ever, and fell into her adorer’s arms. All at once she cried, "You have adiomond ring* Give it me, Nar cissus; I am sure some woman gave it you, and I should die of jealousy il y Oll " ere 1“ wear it!” Am! she, half-playfully,half-angrily, pulled it from lus finger, and placed it on her own. fn return, however, she cut off a huge lock of her uatr, and said, “I here, Narcissus, take that,and pet er, never forget me.” As the ring was worth 1,200 francs, Narcissus by no means approved of the exchange, but. il. spite of his repeated requests, the lady de. dined to make restoration Narcissus at length got seriously angry, and the.lady deemed it pru dent to faint in his arms. The poor man shouted for sails, or vinegar, or hartshorn, but no one had any, and a fireman eventually restored the patient by pufnng the smoke of -his pipe in her face. In doing this her mask fell off, and the unfortunate Narcis is was astounded to see.a big pair of "bis kersalida large moustache— the charmer was a man! : Narcissus at once gave the -fellow into custody, ami it was subsequently ascerta.ned tha lus name was Lahure, and that he was a well known thief.
