said to us, one, day, that in his eyes - the human
race was divided'into two classes—the leaders and
the led—those who are always masters everywhere,
and those who, on the contrary, wait for anther's
impulse to act; the objects and reflection's, the
shepherd and thq
,sheep, the °inst.:pea and the
Pyladeses. This man added, that ,the art of, go

16., woman of wit, Or, at least, a woman who
thinks herself a woman of wit, has discovered, for
r part, a now way of dividing society and of
im periodical disorders, by an Ingenious
two great nations who make war uponistragh
ineessantly, who hate and despise ea& eatery
and who will hate and dedpise eadh other eter
nally. It is in vain for you to make laws, to
give liberties, to grant charters, to suppress duties:
these two nntionO will always be enemies. Who,
then, aro tisOse people for ever rivals? The good
and the had? No. The groat and the little The
rich and the poor ±(o. The etrong and the
weak? The dupes and the rogues? No. %hese
two irreconcilable people—who, in short, are
they? Those who wash i their hands, and those
who do not wash their hands. There is the whole
question.
For fifty years, the polities of our oountry are
nothing else than the oombat incessantly renewing
between these tiro hostile nations, We repeat it,
this war oannot end) those who do not wash their
hands will always hate those who wash their
hands, and those who wash their hands will at
ways dbajilse thosb who Aid not wash their
int& au never can reunite them; they never
can live together, because, as we hail' latkily had
the honor to tell you, because there is 080 thing
that we cannot overcome, that is disgust; because
there Is another thing that we cannot bear, that
is humiliation, and that in this great quarrel there
is disgust for the one part, and humiliation for the
other, You will never compel a dandy to live
with a rag-picker: you never see an ugly and en
vious woman loving to surround herself with hand
some women. Thus, you will never see those who
wash their hands living in good understanding
with those who do not wash their hands. This
system, this singular way of classifying individu
als, seems at the first glance an unseasonable piece
of pleaaantrj ; but when we examine It, it ap
pears less absurd , it may oven be that with wit,
It would not be impossible to maintain it serious
ly ; but that does not Concern us.
fLAOZTB, do
Hero now is a fourth and last elassidoation which
the no* ballot has naturally celled to our mind,
and for *hi& we haios believed that We ought to
spook of the three others.
It is quite a long time since they classfied men
according to the rank of animals. Hach of ns,
they say, takes after some beast, more or less fe
rocious, more or less intelligent ; each of us has in
his face a remarkable characteristics trait which
corresponds to the characteristic trait of some ani
mal. You take after the eagle, Mr. takes after
the monkey. Madame resembles a polecat, Miss
resembles a squirrel. This opinion Is consecrated,
and many persons have a right to share it; but
one of our friends, starting from this principle,
has laid down the question-in a snore absolute
way. According to him, the human species is
composed of two great species, quite distinct—
namely, the dogs and the cats. He does not mean
to say by that that wo live together like dog and
eat; on the contrary, he admits the sympathy be
tween the two races—they aro different, but they
are not hostile. Ile thus explains himself: The
individual belonging to the dog race has all the
qualities of this animal—the kindness, the
courage, the devotion, the fidelity, and the
frankness; but he bps also its defects—the
credulity, the want of forethought, the good-ma
ture—alas ! yes, the good-nature—for good-nature
which is a virtue of the heart, Is a defect in the
character. The man-dog, properly speaking, is
full of solid qualities; but, in general, he wants
address and attraction. Tho man-dog is rarely a
seducer; he is destined for serious employments;
his vocation leads him to the callings which re
quire courage, frankness, and honesty ; the man
dog always makes a good soldier ; the race of nm.
dogs supplies us with the best husbands and the
best domestics, the sincere friends, the good com
rades, the sublime dupes, the heroes, the poets,
the philanthropists, the faithful notaries, the mo
del grocers, the errand-boys, the water-carriers,
the cashiers, the boys of the bank, and the post
men; in short, the man-dog always ohooses in
preference the callings in which it Is possible to
remain an honest man.
The man-dog is esteemed by all who know him,
but he to eeldom loved. The man-dog is born ;or
friendship ; he is capable of feeling love keenly, but
be is not born to inepire It. The man-dog almost
always marries the young girl who hoe seduced
him. The man-dog lends his money to young au
thors of faroes who refuse him tiekets for the play.
The man-dog almost always has a coquettish wife,
whom he adores, and ungrateful children, who
ruin him. Socrates, Regulus, and the virtuous
Oahe, belong to the race of the man-dog.
The man-oat, on the contrary, is never the victim
except of an unsuccessful trick. He professes none
of the qualities of the man-dog, but he has all the
advantages of his qualitiee ; he is selfish, avari
cious, ambitious, jealous, and pernicious; but ho
is prudent, but he is adroit, but he is coquettish,
but he is graceful, but he le persuasive, but he is
endowed with intelligence, taut, and sednotive
noes. Ho possesses infused experience ; he divines
what he is ignorant of ; he aom 'Prebends. wit's
concealed from him ; he drives away, he abse,
by a marvellous instinot, everything that can ht: rt
him. The man-cat despisea only the useless , . i
toes, he knows how to acquire all those whifth' c
profit him, The raoe,of the man-oat supplieti t' e
great diplomatists,, the Stewards, the
no ; we musknot offend inybody. It supplies Id.
most all the sedwiers, and in general; all the pen
whom the' women call perfidious.' Ulysses iatld
Hannibal, Pedalos and the Marshal de Richelieu,
belong to the race of the man-Cat. We are in
debted to it for the greateepart of our fashionable
men and .moSt ot our Statesmen. For exaniple,
Mr. de ---,but no; we. must not flatter any
body.
This is not all yet: this ingenious system ad
mits of all the shades which editcation can pro
duos. Thus a man-dog, carefully brought up
among hieri-eits, may, by dint of Willy and per
severance, •acquire some of the useful defects of
his masters, and lose some of his own pernicious
qualities. He will become suspicious, and 'will
make himself less generous; he will learn to dis
semble, to calculate ; he will preserve his natural
kindness, hut he will know how to repulse adroitly
HMSO who would wish to abuseit ; he will train his
heart and hie:Mind—that is to say, be will be de
voted with moderation; and conscientious without
Sacrifice ; and finally; he • will acquire many bad
sentiments, which *ill perfect him, The man-dog
brought up among the oats—the man-dog brought,
up in Normanby—furnishes a superb quality of
prefoots, bankers, manufacturers, and great mon
of business. They are men of honor, who know
the world, who are never dupes and never rogues;
in short, they aro men honestly ekilful--they are
seductive—for they have acqUired elegance of
manners and noqiietrY of 'apeeolt:' ' They 'know'
how to please, Imam they know what is displea
sing; they are, at the same time; sincere and flat
tering, simple-minded • and cautious, • gracious
and morose; they have what : is called original
ity; they are ,amiable, and are often very much
loved. ,
Bat the most precious of all the "
species, the
variety pre-eminently the most admirable of re
sults, is the character of the man-eat brought: up
among noble dogs; the man-tat brought up, for
example, in Brittany ! There is the irresistible
being, the superior man, the model mind, the
real type of perfection; he preserves all his nista-,
ral qualities which, are indestructible; he pre-
Serves his address, hie profound intelligence, ;his
infallible instinct, his grace, his suppleneis; his
mildness, and hie subtlety, and he acquires Millie
virtues of Ms mutters, for virtues may be acquired
by the will. Our qualities some to us by nature,
but our virtues are the fruit of our education an

avarice, may home generous; a coward maybe-

cent from pride; but an awkward man is always -
cluvini, vilely man is strrays useless. The man
cat, among the dogs, acquires then the nobility
which he needs, the generosity, the frankness; he
even exaggerates all these acquisitions, because it
is difficult to preserve a proper medium in the vit. ,
tilos contrary to nature; the converted man-oat
is mush more generous than the man-dogs rhe goes
farther than all others, he overwhelms his ene
mies with benefits ; he has so great a fear of be

himself in all his calculations; he always

Von are danger and mystery—is it not so?, Well,
these two, forces of attraction belong to him. Why
have false persons so great a charm ?, It is because
we are drawn towards them by danger and mys

the greater portion of the • iron rain, ties, coil;
etc., will be shipped direct from Pennsylvania to
the head of Lake Superior. I also knelt that the
distance from Lake Superior is several hundred
miles shorter than by any other route ; that the
grade is mtbah leis ; that the road would pass
through a rich stgrioultural coda try, partly of
level prairies, watered by noble riven), and
abodndlng with bitffalp ; that for summer traffic,
over four thou-rani mute of this track have been
already laid by the same Great flnglneer who
built the lofty ramparts which choke up access to
San Francisco from the East. First division is from
Quebec to head of Lake Superior, via St. Law
rence river and the Lakes, over 2,000 miles of
ship navigation; second division, from Brecken
ridge, on the Bed river of the north, to Port Ed
mondlon on the Saskatchewan, near the Beaky
Mountains, 2,000 miles of steamboat navigation—
total oter 4,000 miles of inland navigation. Prom
lily knowledge Of the Lake Superior country, I
believe that the Northern Pacific Railroad
should Commence ttt the month of the St.
Loots river, or bay of Superior. This bay is
about sir miles long, and one wide, affording
the finest harbor on Lake Superior, and Ido not
hesitate to say in the finite) States, for the pur
pose. A few Piles hdve been driven neat the en
trance of the Nemadji river, into this bay, for a
large railroad pier. The United States military
road presents great facilities for laying the rails;
it is level, requiring scarcely any grading. At
the Lakes, twenty-two miles from Superior, con
tractors are now at work cutting out a stage
road to Crow Wing, on the Mississippi, 135 miles
above St. Paul. It will be completed, and stages
running, by the 10th of Jane, 1859. Now, here
is nearly 100 miles more, nearly a dead level, and
over which a railroad could bo laid at a compara
tively small cost. Besides, the freight alone on
iron rails, eta., from Pennsylvania, to head of
Lake Superior, would be trifling compared with
that paid for rails for the central or southern
route. There are now ever 260 English engineers
eurveying fbr a Paoltio road in British America,
near the Pft9iflO. I have no doubt but that Eng
lish capitalists would gladly assist in the northern
route. The fact is, the English will build their
road if we do not anticipate them. Let the Go
vernment appropriate sufficient land, and the
Northern Pacific road will evidently be completed
first. It is proved that snow never falls to as great
a depth there, neither is the force of the wind as
great, as along the central route lam constantly

chasers from other States. At St. Albans, in
three days last week, $4,000 were paid for horses
by buyers from Philadelphia. Prins range from
sixty to one hundred dollars.
DIAMONDS.-11 is said that Brazil sends
yearly into the trade about 30,000 carat weight
of uncut diamonds. During the two years after
the discovery of the diamond mine at Sinews, in
Bahia, 000,000 carats were sent to Europe ; but
in 1852 the quantity had fallen to 130,000.

for that of the community. The wards named com
prise all of the city between the Delaware and the
Schuylkill, below South street. It was the revolver
which brought the " killers" to terms when the mar
shal's police was established. The cowardly rascals
who skulk and conceal themselves, and then tire at the
unwary passer.by, defy the policeman wbo is armed
only with his " billy ;" but with a revolver for his
companion, the policeman can allow them that shooting
is a game that two can play at, and we sincerely hope
that the present arrangement will have the effect of
euppresslogODY attacks the villainous page may have
in contemplation.
Rum, AND-sO.EORTIL—About noon yester•
day two men, known as James G. Johnson and Wil
liam Campbell, while in a state of intoxication, got
into a tight at Third and German itreetri. during which
Johnson bit a piece out of the cheek of hie antagonist.
Both were taken Into custody and sent to prison by Al
derman Fernington..
Another inebriate, named William whitecar, a gen
tleman of color wee also arrested yesterday, on the
charge of committing a violent aseault open his wife; at
their residence, No. 80 Bedford street.. William we!
drank, and best hie wife on the head with an iron bar,
Waring her no severely that It was necessary to convey
her to the Second district station house, and call in the
sarriege of Dr. Benner.' The boisterous William was
sent below to reflect and to repent.
THIS WEarmra.—Yesterday was a dreary,
drill, disagreeable, drizzly day. Not a pleas of blue in
the heavens above—not a gleam of grusehirie to gladden
the soul. Not even a shower—that would have been
exciting, if nothing more—but a slow, uneven drizzle.'
Muddy streets, muddy pavements, we might say muddy
skies—one great pall of mud and fog hung, during the
live-long day, like the pillars of Egypt, over our beau-,
Mut metropolis. Oh ! for a day of the glorious atun--'
mer—a "day of the verdant spring, or what would be
more seasonable, if not quite as agreeable, a good old
fashioned winter , a day. We learn from an afternoon
cotemporary, that the citizens of Pottsville have been
enjoying tine sleighing for the past few days. The tem
perature in that region meat present quite a contrast to
that of ours.
