NATHANIEL P. BANKS.
. Mr. Banks, the present Speaker of the House
of Representatives, was born on the 13th of
January, 1816, in the town of Waltham, near
Boston, which is still his residence. The pov
erty of his family deprived him of any but the
most ordinary advantages of education, and
these were necessarily narrowly limited, or ut
terly withheld, from bis twelfth year, when
he betook himself to a factory in his native
town, therein to cam a livelihood. At a later
period of his youth, he worked as a black
smith. He was nearly thirty years old, when,
throwing aside his blacksmith's apron, he
commenced in Boston the study of the law,
in the Bce of Hon. ItobertjRantoul, Jr., then
IT. S. District Attorney for Massachusetts,
and he was more than thirty two years old
when, in 1818, he was admitted to practice,
and opened an office for himself in Boston,
still residing with his family at Waltham.
Mr. Rantoul was probably the ablest man in
the Democratic ranks in New England, and
Mr. Bank's views upon many subjects are iden
tical with those of his legal teacher and per
sonal friend.
3fr. Banks had been an earnest and active
partisan as early as 1810, when he supported
Van Burcn and the Sub-Treasury. He stood
tip for Folk in '44, and for Cass in '48, when
he was for the first time chosen to the Legis
lature of Massachusetts from Waltham, though
his political opponents were a decided major
ity in that town. It is said that but twenty
Democrats were that year elected to the Mas
sachusetts House, which consists of somcjthrcc
to four hundred members.
In 1800, the famous "Coalition" between
the Free Soilers and tho Democrats wrested
Massachusetts from the control of the Whig
party, sent Charles Sumner to fill the seat of
Daniel Webster in the U. S. Senate, and elec
ted Mr. Banks Speaker of the Massachusetts
House. In 1853, Mr. Banks was elected
Speaker of the Constitutional Convention, of
which the ablest men of the State were mem
bers.
Mr. Banks first took his scat as a Member
of Congress in December 18-33, having suppor
ted General Tierce for President in the pre
cceding canvass. He acted with his party
through that session, except on the Slavery
Question taking ground against the Repeal
of the Missouri Compromise, against the doc
trine of "Squatter Sovereignty," and contend
ing that it was the right and duty of Congress
to act as the guardian of the infant Territories,
and establish therein such institutions as were
most in conformity with Republican princi
ples, and best adapted to promote then intel
lectual, moral, and material growth.
In 1851, Mr. Banks was re-elected to the
House, having the support of both the "Amer
ican" and Democratic parties in his District,
and receiving a majority of some seven thou
sand votes. In December last that Congress
assembled, and, after a two moths' struggle,
was elected Speaker by a plurality of three
votes. Mr. Banks is gene-rally acknowledged
to be an admirable presiding officcr having
muchexperience, and great natural coolness,
promptitude and dignity.
He is now forty years old, rather below the
medium size, with a firm, erect carriage, and
an earnest physiognomy that seems as though
it had been pinched and shriveled by facing
a keen New England March wind. His dark
hair is thickly sprinkled with gray, indicative
of the anxieties of an active trenchant life.
He is understood to be still in very moderate
circumstances. He was married some years
since, and his wife is now with him in Wash
ington, though their children in part remain
at school in their New England home. Con
trary to the general rule that "a prophet is
not without honor, save in his own country ,'
Mr. Banks has always been most popular in
his native town, and there the long struggle
for the Speakership was watched with the
liveliest anxiety on his behalf. When the ti
dings of his success at length arrived, the
bells were rung, cannon fired, a procession
formed, and all the clergymen assembled with
their flocks to rejoice over the success of their
townsman.
Fuesextatioxs arc getting common. The
Captain of a canal boat out West has just been
presented with a service of fivo years in the
penitentiary, in consideration of the distin
guished ability with which he plundered a pas
svnger and kicked him overboard.
Commodore Fekht obtained, while in Japan
a pair of dogs, from which the breed of "King
Charles Spaniel" is derived. They cost him
one hundred and eighty-one dollars, and were
kept in Japan as imperial pets. A high price
for bark, that.
At a recent exhibition of a menagerie, an
elephant was seen to pick up the loose hay
with his trunk, when an Irishman exclaimed :
, "What sort or a baste is that atin' hay with
his tail"
Lodgisgs are so scarce inAustraliathat men
ray a dollar for lying in the gutter, and fifty
cents extra for resting their heads on the curb
stone. Cellar doors reserved for ladies.
A client once buist into a flood of tears af
ter he had heard the statement of his counsel,
exclaiming : "I did not think I had suffered
half so much." '''" ' .' '
There abb to be nine hundred and thirty
four hotels, and two hundred and thirty-one
eating houses in Philadelphia, under the new
license law of Pennsylvania.
The osts out in Iowa live so long that they
have to put sticks on their horns for the wrin

ent Air-Tisht Stlf-Sealin? Can and Jars, for
Preserving Fresh Fruits, &c This invention for
wnicli a patent has been obtained, commends it-
self to the attention of Housekeepers and others,
on account of iu great simplicity, and the effectu
al manner in which it accomplished a very desi
rable and useful object
The cans and jars are constructed with a cRan
ncl around the mouth, nerr tho top. into which
the cover fits loosely. This channel is filled with
a very adhesive cement, prepared for the purpose
and allowed to harden. Iu order to seal the ves
sel hermetically, it is only tie.cees,rry to heat the
cover ttghtly,atul press it into pi zee. It may be
opened with as much ease as it is closed, by slight
ly warming the top. The ordinary tin cans, used
for the game purpose for which this is intended,
eannot be closed, as is well known without the aid
of a tinnsr; are difficult to open, and are generally
so much injured iu opening as to-be useless for
future service.
By this simple contrivance, the process of her
metieal sealing is placed conveniently within the
reach of every individual; and fruit, vegetables
and butter (if properly prepared) may be kept,
with their natural flavor unimpaired, lor au in
definite length of time. For sale by
