The retirement of Humphrey Marshall, of the

position party of one of it* most accomplished tao
tioians.. My own belief is that- ho left tho Held
precipitately, and regretted the Btop immediately
after he had taken It. Certain * it is - that I have
| seen few men more capable of am eying and confu
sing his adversaries. ( Apparently indifferent to the
-doings of the House, eminently social in his nature
and so constantly, seen-in society aa.to lead t© the
impression that he scarcely ever- read a book, he
was. always ready for every emergency as it arose,
qlwqytf eloquent, and never, r 'takerj aback. r Who
will be the leader of the general Opposition—in
pther words, who will organise end apeak for a Na
tional Opposition party—remains to pe seen. Ben
jamin Stanton, of : Ohio, is unquestionably one of
the first men of his party in the House, and in-say
ing this I do no discredit to eij|i|r Messrs. Grow,
Sherman, or the Washbarnaa./Jfijhen I speak of a'

has for some months prevailed of the probability:
that Commander. Maury, in .charge of tho National,

Nowspapers and men of soionoe in this and other

source, it is ascertained that' at no’time, has Seore- ■
tary Touoey ever thought of detaohing him from

■ purpose; 1 '
! Lieutenant Ives, the arobiteot and engineer in
I oharge of the Washington Monument, has made an
I offioial report to the society, in which he says that
[ when.rpipedjto the height of six hundred feet, the
entire weight of the shaft and foundation will ho
seventy thousand tons. The weight of the struc

He has been unable to detect any appearance of
settling or insecurity. By scientific calculations,
he has arrived at, the, conclusion that; tho .weight
alone of the moriudont/at its full height,-' would
offer a resistance nearly eidfit times greater than

The London Times-of. August 9 has tho
following:
'Mr. Spurgeon, in preaching' at Norwich, Inst
week, indulged in some of his characteristic humor.
“ Content,’* hosaid ( , madeonVcuprun ovor, whilo
discontent knooked .the bottom out.” The, story
wliloh had-rfebently appeared-in the papers,'about,
his having a large fortune left him was a com*
pletb hohxV 1 if he‘wore to have a guinea for
every falsehood told about him, ,he could build
his great chapel very soon, and probably have
enough left for a cathedral. Qr two. Christian
men sometimes fell terribly foul of each other,
diko tbe two'English ships which broadsided each
other for two hours, in a,mist .without knowing
that the British flag was flying at their mastheads..
Tho lazy man was one of the biggest sinners oh
earth; if ho.didnothingelso,hobrokeoneofGod's
greatest cdmmahdmGnts.’ Thbrb w'as avery <strict
Sabbatarian gardener, who was vory hard upon his'
master about the''observonoo of tho Sabbath.
His master said to him, “Why. you break the
commandments younjalf!V ;MHow’?£?: said the
gardener, “I don’t work on Sunday.” “No, n ‘
Juoth the master,; “nor on any other d^Y.
ust repoat'the commandment.” The gardener,
obeyed, and when he came to “six days shall;'
thou laßorkdd dd all tfcgt thou ;hasf fo : do,” his
master said. “Thore, stop thero; that'ls as much
a part of the commandment as that “ tho seventh
day isVfcbe'.'Sabbath.*- Tho for
sectarian distinctions was as absurd as if a hungry
man,, about to oat. Fomp,bread., were told by a
. Churchman, U -Nd bread Hko the tin loafor by
aMethodist, “ You must eat twists.” Thehungry
man would say. “Giye me somo:brcad,-ftnd I will',
settle the«shape’hfte'rwards‘’. ,, i lt jars, somehow i
upon the feelings to sea tho copious reports which -
the country papers give ;of Mr, Spurgeon’s
raons,” curiously interlarded with •• laughter.”'

speech mado by It! W. Thompson, of that State, at
