American Humor.
Tha “Library of Hnmorone American Works,”
consisting of thirty volumes, with illustrations ex
pressiy designed by Darley, has been out of print
for some time, but T, B. Peterson & Brothers haye:
commenced a re-Irene, with Illustrated oovers, the
first batch of wbloh is just out., These six volumes
oonelst of “ The Big. Bear of Arkansas,” by T. B,
Thorpe, with, other stories;. “ Western Scenes, or
Life on the Prairie,” by John S. 110 bb-5 - ’’ -Siajor
Jones’ Ocmrtehlp j” “ Adventures of Oaptain Simon
Suggs j” “ Odd Leaves from the Life of a Louisiana
Swamp Doctorand “ Major Jones’ Sketohes of
Travel from Georgia to Canada." These six volumes
contain sixty-four of Darley’s most amusing designs,
and will be followed by Neal’s “ Oharooal Sketches',”
“Sol Smith’s. Autobiographical Skstobesj” &«. If
any one wants half an hour’s genuine amusement:
at any time, let him forget oare over oho of these
racy volumes, containing that exaggerated fun
which provokes the laugh, even against the reason.
American Mtoatines. ( j
The Atlantia Monthly and- Our Young Folks , botii
for March, have come to hand, through Mr. T. B.;
Fogh, Sixth and Chestnut streets. The Atlantic k
Monthly openß with the tot part of « The* Story of
a.Year,” a new novelette, fall of promise.; There -
are luither portions of “ Need Wand Garden,” a
domestic tale, told In a very natural manner, by j
Mrer Stowe, of “ Dr. Johns,” by Ik Marvel, and of
" The Chimney Oorner.” We find some 'readable
poetry, too j a clever dissertation on *< The' PopultiT
Leotnre,” and a most Interesting paper'on “Ail-',
elent Mining on the Shores of Lake,Superior.” Mr.
S, O. Hall,gives the third (Moore and ijjoloridgej
came before) of his “ Memories of Authors,” the
subject being poor L. B. L. His wife, whose, recoil
lections are Introduced, mentions, of Miss i.lndon’tij
personal appeoranoe, « you saw these defects at th«
tot glance, just .as yon did. that her nosh was rfei
trousse, and that Ebe was underhung, wbloh oughfe
to have spoiled the expression of her mouth, but l£
did not.” This is awkward verbiage, and after *
dozen queries, we have been pnable to asoerta® -
what “Underhung” can mean. The second portl®-
of Gottsohalk’s “ Notes of a Pianist” Is a remarlrabiw
production, glvlugan account of bis turning
on an extinct volcano, (In company with a? poor my
natlo, whom he found on what Daniel O’BoureM
would have called “a dissolute Island,”) a®’
a piano. Considering that Mr. Gottsehaim:
strong thumplog pots a piano hors de comtU ‘ ;
In a few hours, .hts amusement, as: a couobrai'-
mnßt have been of limited oontinnance’, • ■
also had with him a few hundred pounds, .or
. various-sized wire to replace broken stxlngß, ,m£m
Gottschalk shows, in his writings, that Ms!
talent, confessedly great, is smaller‘in ijuaaKs. .
than his plaeld seir-cenoelt. We hope- to
more of hl^amusisg”Notes.” W. :
The third nnmber of Our foung Folks: IS JBsh
better than Its.predecessors; more' carelptlwXW'
causeless familiarly, written. It is liberally»§£ '
trated, with good wood engravings. The’bewpar
pers are by J. T. Trowbridge, “ Oarleton,” HbsC
Stowe, and Bose Terify. The “Lessons IpM®e”-'
will Interest many young people. Thelf astrabh
ment, however; wUI expand Itself on “AfloafiM.the
Forest,” a tale of adventure by Majne Reid, Sfore
whose invention most pale the lnoffootnajl mw of
Mendez-Pinto, Longbow, and
we believe, he relates nothing that has not ocAned.
“ The City Girl,” by GaU Ha:mUton, desSblng
how a little girl danced the Highland Fllngjn oos
tume, kilt Included, Is at once feeble and oSmmon
plaoe. As a whole, “Our Young Folks” deserves

Wo find In the Liverpool Times the annexed state
ment of English Protestant missionary, troubles in
Turkey:
The attempts mafia by various English religious
societies to extend the Christian faith in Tut hey
have recently created some excitement among the
Moslem population, and compelled thednterventlon
of the English ambassador. r-The immediate result
Is a long correspondence just presented to Parlla
meet, it Is doubtful whether tuose whohavo caused,
.the agitation are under the’direct-oontrol of the
Protestant societies who have omploycdmlsslonarles
In Turkey, as It appears to have orlgraat'ed In the
conduct of'some native converts, who nave ventured
to preach their adopted oreed amongtheir own coun
trymen, at the risk or disturbing the public peaoeln a
dangerous manner. The agitation commenced In
July last, when Sir H. Bulwer, In a deßpatoh dated
the 18th of thatmonth, reported that “ a case of some
dlfficultyand danger had arisen, which would proba
bly cause a disagreeable Impression in England.”
Pour or five converts have beenpreachtngta Constan
tinople, In the “ khans ” or Inns, to travellers Irom
the interior of Turkey, who are the most fanatical
portion of the population. The attacks publicly
made on their faith by those who had renounced it
roust d great indignation among the Moslems of the
eapltal also, as they considered It a public Insult.
The people will not tolerate from a renegade what
they will listen to calmly from a foreigner born In
the creed he professes. The interference of the po
lice became necessary to protect the llve3 of these
converts, and some ot them were arrested. The
shops where Bibles were sold have been dosed, as
well as the places where the preaching took place.
1 he Government Itself has no apprehension of the
religious consequences, but dreads any excitement
of the public mind in such a city as Constantinople,
where, as Sir H, Bulwer statOß, “if any- afflray oc
curred, and any blood were shed, It would Wim
posSlble to foresee the consequences.” Hi pro
mises to obtain the release of the converts, and
E emission for the quiet sale of the Bible, Jut he
ad told an English clergyman, intimate with
these converts, that “they had hatter mmala
quiet for a time.” The subjeot has, of courfe, ex
cited great interest among the English rellgMus so
cieties. They have interposed in behalf of tbk con
verts, who, as It appears by a despatch date the
4th of Ootober, have been released. This, however,
has by no meanß closad the question, which Is
very fully stated by Sir H. Bulwer in aThport
addressed to the committee ol the EvangtUCal
Society. The question, he says, narrows ltsilf to
this: “ The Ottoman Government is willing to al
low all Christians to exercise their own religion
quietly, as at home, hut it will not allow Mahoiune
danlsm to be publicly assailed. Its policy Is tdprd
teot all religions, but not to allow persons-of ora re
ligion to attack those of another.” His argument
applies more or less to all missionary vocations) It
may be sufficient to say that he considers their son
duct neither “ prudent nor-politio.” On the ether
band, the Archbishop of Canterbury, as PresUent
of the Society for the Propagation of the Gomel,
expresses to Lord John Russell Sis belief thatfthe
faots proved ‘‘justify the strongest representation
to the Government of the Sultan.” As the discis
sion of the whole subject fills ninety-nlnedespatoSs,
It 1b Impossible to follow the-details. But as fie
converts have been released and-the depot for me
sale of Bibles has been reopened, it Isto be horad
that agitation will not extend. Lord Russell ap
pears to have summed up the whole controvert ‘
In his despatch of December 18, where he says, “If
the missionaries will hereafter show somewhat more
prudence and the Turkish Government sotra
what more friendly forbearance, a recurrence
of these painful scenes may he prevented.” 1
With regard to the Catholics, the Levant Bemu

A few days ago It was announced that the au-
thorities at Nassaurihad: refused permission to the
commander of the United States gunboat Honduras
to anchor that vessel In the harbor. A-correspond*-
ent of tho Now York tierald says In a letter dated
16th ultimo: ,
“ The captain came ashore in his smallhoat to get
permission to anohor,.which.was refused ;■ that.he
was obliged to return tff his "Ship -through a heavy
Burt spend the nlght at sea, ahd return to Nassau
to the morning to, transact his business with the
consul. It seems that the faot of htslandtog at all
gave great umbrage to tbe authoritieß bf the place,
and a eommunloattoniupon tho subject was sent to
to the American consul, Thomas Kirkpatrick, Esq.,
censuring the conduot-of. the commander of the
gunboat to coming ashore. The consul declined
entering into a discussion with the authorities here,
and with great good judgment referred the matter
to the Department at Washington.”
Gov. iuasdell, of the new State of Nevada,
takes a different view of some things &om that en

tog .that *90,000 of the first mozuiyß received Into the
treasury, “'not otherwise-sjpecially appropriated,”
should he set aside to create a " State Legislative
Fund,’”«id “ an act to prohibit tho payment of cer
tain warrants.” In consequence of the Governor’s
veto, the Legislature is “down upon Mm.” The
press thinks he Is right; and, if that be tile oase, of
course, be ought to “go ahead.”
When Solomon W. Roberts was superintendent
of the Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad he Inva

form. Tie aid not give a one-sided or partial narra
tive, colored to suit the interests of the company,
but a statement of the toots as they reaUy occurred;
an d he maintained that this was the true Interest of
every railroad company, Inasmuch as the public
would learn the faots sooner or later, and It was
better that the information should be gathered from
the railroad company at ozxje, Instead of being
picked up through those likely to distort It to its

to-give a-word of warning to the'engineers to*
charge of them. The boilers of a''steam oar are as
liable to explosion as bollers any whore else, and are
liable also to tofiiot great damage','for to most of the'
cars seals are arranged for the passengers within a
few inches of the bollers. whteh are separated from
them by a thin and flimsy partition. When these
cars are crowded, as they often are, an explosion
would undoubtedly be fatal, not only bj the Injiiry
Inflicted by flying pleoes, but by the steam wMoh
would penetrate among the passengers with soald
toghotness. A very little care by a oompetent en
gineer Wonld avoid such horrible effects, and we
trust that all toe street railroad companies who
own-steam engines employ.none bat competent per

toe boiler or a steam oar on the Hoboken and West

whilst standing In the depot. .The engineer was

An English paper states that a Manchester mer
chant, now resident In Mexico, wrltlngfrom Guana
juato, en January 20 th, says:
“ Tranquillity Is maintained In onr district, and In
other parts the country Is bßlng gradually brought
under the dominion or the Emperor, who Is governing
with great prudence, employing both Liberals and
Conservatives, and I feel convinced that at lastwe
shall have peace and progress. The Emperor Is do
lng his best to promote the formation of railways,
and the scheme I published In February for a rall
- way from Leon to Queretaro, with branches to Gua
najuato and Mlcoacan, Is to be carried into effect In
accordance with the ideas I then expressed, and
other lines are In treaty. The mines here arepaor
er than ewr, but probably a largo company will bo
got up hero and In the district to work some" good
mines, which, with a comparatively small outlay,
are likely to give excellent results.”
As to the Sonora question, the Memorial Diploma ■-
(I9«e,'in adding Its voice to the official denials of
the reported cession of Mexican provinces to'
Franco, rotors to the “ truth.at the bottom of these
reportsthe near realization of a plan for the
colonization of the State or Sonora, the principal
features of which were indicated In the Memorial of
the 4th September laet.' It states, In fact, that at.
Gwlnhad the Initiative of the plan; he had sub
mitted It to the Emperor of the French, who un
proved of it,.and presented him to the Archduke
Maximilian at the time of his sojourn at the Totle
rle?inill?,lnontll of March last year. The project
of M. Gwln, who, having lived a long time In Cali
fornia, knows the countries perfectly, would consist
In the establishment upon the territory of Sonora of
a colony of workmen, the number of whom, accord
ing to hla calculations, would reach In a given time
- the figure of 84,0Q0, and who, to clearing the soil and
working the mines, would be organized so as to de
fend the country. M. Gwln would naturally be
oharged with this organization and the direction of
this colony of workmen. “ There Is here,” says the
Memorial . “something .-very remote from a vice
royalty, especially for the benefit of France. The
development of the mines of Sonora hy capitalists
can only a private affair, subjeot to the author!-
zaUcnof the Mexloan Government, and It is only
just In that Government'to grant the .protection
and guarantees of seeurity which grand enterprises
receive to every civilized community. Such m the
explanation of the despatch of Imperial troops,
French and others, into a remote province which
may be considerea-as not yet t efficiently pacified, to
which the relics of resistance have fled, upon the
supersets of which wander Indians, leadinganomad
and savage life, and at times showing very little
sympathy with the white race; a province, to a
word, which hitherto has only bean nominally under
the authority of the Central Government sitting at
Mexico. The putting forward of the name of M.
Gwln, as viceroy of Sonora, &0., would be alone
sufficient to prove the absurdity or the rumor, if it
should ever become true that a part of the Mexican
territory feu to be ceded to Frauto, it Is not totoS
foreigner that the Emperor Napoleon would go to
seek a governor for his new There are
.among us plenty of ‘devotions’ to reward; plenty
of men Invested with the confidence of this country,
and more worthy or representing France.”
A private' letter from a Philadelphian now to
Paris, dated the 19th ult., says that a well-known
American resident of Paris, who Is on the most Inti
mate terms wiiu the Emperor, positively assured
the writer that the reported cession of the five pro
vinces to France, by Mexico, was entirely and ut
terly false; adding that this was direct from the
Emperor himself.

eruption of Mount Etna has taken place. It being
an extraordinary spectacle, and a phenomenon only
repeated at long Intervals, I went to the mountain at
toe first reeelptofthe news, and stayed there two days
notwithstanding tho excessively bad weather. The
lava is not abundant at Its source, and Immediately
divides itself Into two principal branehes; neither
are the two torrents very wide. That which I have
seen, and toe largest, was about 16 metres high, and
of A width of 260 or 300 metres.: It Issues on the east
Bide of Etna, and hardly reaches toe border of toe
cnltlvated vine districts, bat it has overwhelmed two
cottages, and If It continues It will probably destroy
toe milages of MasoaU and Fledlmonte; at least
it is likely to take that direction, for it Is imjiosslble
to. establish too laws by which these enormous
masses of red-hot liquid matter arc guided. The
other branch runs down the northern side, and
threatens toe village of Llngnagrossa. This
is toe smaller torrent, and it Is already
subdivided into several ramifications,, which
tend to take a course la the direction of the tmcultl
vated region.” A letter from Catania; of toe 6th
tost., on toe same subjeot, says: “We arrived here
on toe 2d tost, and oame from. Bronte by piedl
monte and Glarre, to get a view of toe eruption.
The daylight prevented our seeing much, hut alter
dusk we saw one of the principal streams of molten
matter, and all day were stunned by the tremen
dous noise. Cannonading. lafnothlng to it. There
are five craters hard at work and various streams.
No accommodation Is to be had near, so It Is not ao-,
cesslblo to ladles, or I would make an effort to go.
Foreigners and Sicilians are pouring towards toe
spot. lam afraid to give particulars, as rumors are
conflicting; hut he certain that there Is muoh to see
awfully grand, and more to hear than most people’s
tympanums wlUbear.— Malta Times, Feb. 9.

On Friday last he was refused permission, to go

It was.toought to be a boyish threat, and no atten
tion was paid to it; bnt, on going to toe barn shortly
after, bis employer found toe boy hanging to one of
the beams by the neck, and before he.was able to
out him down life had become entirely extinct.
