Outrageous. If the accounts wo have been re
ceiving lattterly from Now Washington be true,
the conduct of two or throo locofocosthcro towards

highest degree. We are only awaiting full par
ticulars, upon good authority, to show them up in
the manner they deserve.
A floral curiosity. There si now to bo seon at
Savannah, Georgia, an aloe tree, otherwiso called a

FROM WASHINGTON.
Washington, July 14. Mr. Wheeler, the

"Sam's" Oricix and IIistohy. One of the
speakers at a recent American meeting in
Kentucky, said that "Sam" was an immacu
late conception, lie was born inPhila&o'phia
on the 4th of July 177(5. He was lorn talking.
IILs first words are found in the Declaration of
Independence, which shook the thrones of
Europe to their center. King George, while
lie was young, undertook to whip him Invjause
he was "sassy." With the help of G-?orgj
Washington he licked tho King's forces, and
took as much land as he wanted. -Sam" mar
ried an American woman named Constitution,
and has had by her thirty-one sons and daugh
ters, all of whom are now living, and occupy
ing lands from the Atlantic to the Pacific
ocean. Constitution has five or six young
ones still at the breast. Sam's family, how
ever, are peculiar. They all focd, fatten, and
thrive upon Constitution's republican milk,
and obey their mother. Sam protects his fam
ily by throwing around them .a proat lbg,
flittering with stars and red with the blood of
the martyrs of liberty. "Sam"' and his family
arc now the greatest people 071 the face of the
earth. They are known "and respected by ev
ery nation in tbe world.
Old Hickory a Prohibitionist. Tbe weil

The honor or imprecation should be heapx-.l

" Great is Humbug, and Baejeim is its
Prc.fi.'' New York correspondents notice a
new humbug of Barnum, which, appealing to
the vanity of the female sex, cannot fail to pay.
The American Museum is to be metamorphos
ed into a vast daguerrean saloon, fi!lc-i with
the portraits of the most beautiful women in
the land. Each visitor is, on leaving tho mu

most handsome in the collection live thou
sand dollars in premiums are to bo divided
amongst thos'j having tho largest vote, their
portraits in oil are to be taken, and forwarded
to Paris, where a volume of steel plate en
gravings of the beauties of the world is to be

"CP" Fruits of all kinds (says Mr. Fred. J.
Cope, an intelligent citizen of V"estniorcland
county,) can be kept perfectly sound and
fresh by .a very simple process. It is thij :
Gather the fruit carefully, and put it into
suitable vessels thoso of glass are preferred,
as the fruit can be vi without opening them.
For the smaller kind3, such as cherries, cur
rants, raspberries, blackberries, eic, comma::
bottles with large necks, will do. Fill the
vessels and then irurnerso them in warm water,
np to the mouth or opening ; letting them re
main twelve or fifteen minutes; thcu cork
them tightly, melt wax or rosin over the top of
the cork, and when cool, put them away in
a dry cellar, or soma other cool place where
they will not freeze. Peaches, plums, apri
cots, nectarines, &c, &c, are kept in this way
quite fresh, a whole year.
A Great Compliment. At the Dorchester
celebration on the 4th inst., Col. Aspiuwall,
late U. S. Consul to London, and an oCicer in
the war of 1312, who lost his arm in the ser
vice, stated in his speech that the lato Duke of
Wellington, (no mean authority) styled the
march of Gen. Winfield Scott through Mexico
"tha military miracle of the age." :

VCT" The Pope has had the opinions of the
dignitaries of tbo Church about the dogma of
the Immaculate Conception published. Wo
see that Cardinal Diej.enI.ioch, Archbishop of
Breslan, and many German Bishops, dissented
from the views of the majority. Archbishop
Sibour of Paris belongs likewise to the non
contcnts; but all the southern and western
Bishops recommended the enunciation of the
new dogma. Xol cr.e cf 'ho Irish, Italian,
Spanish or Irish-American Bishops is found
among the non-coi.tects. They formed an
overwhelming majority against the protest cf
some few German and French Bishops.
Singular CotxciBKsc s. ThcEomney (Va.)
Intelligencer, speaking cf the murder of Orn
dorli by McDonald, a fjw weeks ago, in Ilari
shire county, relates a strange coincidence.
3IcDen:iil was . robbing Loekraillor's house
when Orndorff came up, and he shot him for
fear of being detected.
Fifty yei'rs ago McDonald's grandfather,
near tlio identical spot, was rolbing the house
of a Mr. L;'. ton, when Lupton's three little
children come upon him, and for fear cf de
tection, he murdered, as lie supposed, all of
them, but fortunately one lived to testily
against him, and ho wa hung.
American Gkatitudk. During the admin
istration of Sir Robert Walpoie, the transpor
tation of Convicts to this country proved a
very great grieveaace. Dr. Fkanuxin wrote
to fho Minister the thanks of the colonics for
the maternal care cf Britain to the country,
strongly manifested in this instance ! and as a
satisfactory proof oi" American gratitude, sent
him a collection of J2?i!ir.sr"k. which he ad
vised him to have introduced into his Majes
ty's gardens at Kew, in order that they might
propagate and increase assuring him that
tiiey would be as beneficial in his Majesty's
Englioh dominions, as th
Brit
an an
t Irish
fOid o'i v.-v.re u America! Thus it would ap
pear that in tho eves of Franklin, the transpor
tation to this country cf cam-ids and f.iupsrs,
was considered as crying an evil as it is at the
present day.
I'aoscHii tion. Talk about proscription, and
then look at tho course cf President Fierce.
Man after nmn falls before his arm, simply be
cause he would exercise i:!:? rights as a free
man because he would veto as ho pleased
and entertain the views he felt. Talk about
the toleration in Cuthouc.s, and point to the in
stance. V.'e know a young man who lived in
Freemat. Ohio, who dared to write an article
for the F re era on t Jir.irnrl holding up to scorn
tho holy (?) (--'her of that place, who had com
mitted a brutal ass iult and battery on a tvomnu.
This young man was a clerk in a large stove
where all the Catholics and Irish dealt, a-:d
Mr. Priest marched to tho proprietors, 'l
them he must b j discharged or loose their cus
tom and off goes his head. This is only one
instance out of many. Americans, do you not
feel your nation and your people insulted?
The evil must and will be put down.
The Bini.E ti t out or a Wayland School.
A low weeks sinco several of the scholars
(Roman Catholics) in one of the Waylar.d
(Middlesex cour.ty) schools, refused to read,
as had been the custom, from the scriptures.
They of course acted from directions outside
the school. The teacher (a female) insisted
upon tho system and discipline of her charge
being carried on. The matter was taken iu
hand by the School Committee, a majority of
whom two to one sided upon the Roman
Catholic side of the question, and accordingly
the Bible was banished. The people of the dis
