sir A fern days since, a tdr*..lacksott,
resident of Cincinnati, wishing to get rid of a
troublesome dog, strewed around the and
of her dwelling several hits of meat ,priok
led with strychnine. Fier little daughter.
unfortunately, picked up a piece and ate
it, when she was instantly attacked with
vomiting, followed by terrible ,pamus,
.which, after four or fire days, terminat,4l
in death. We do not env) the feling4 of
the mother who perpetrated this piece of
culpable carelessness.
The Kansas Constitutional Com en
tion.has made sundry concessions to the
fair sex, or otherwise have imporod upon
them new burdens and responsibilities. A
provision has been adopted giving fennel ft 4 an
equal voice in all mattery pertaining to the
common schook They are also allowed
equal property rights with males, and equal
authority In the management of children
during their minority is granted to hull anal
and wife. Much of this reform 1. due to
Xrs. *Aar Gort litcnozs, who has been
very active in the lobby. The experiruetas
thus made are not very hazardous. and au.,
in the main, comment with just idea,- of
the sphere of woman.
MIL Dr. Prank Royal, an intemperate,
physician of Chicago, and formerly an army
-surgeon, cut his wife's throat on Wetin(i.-
day night. The wound IQ not likely to
prove fatal. Mrs. Royal, says the Prrie. had
got together a little money by her needle.
which the miserable husband to get
possession of,hence the quarrel and v Mien eo

fatal issue.

PREMENT BCCUASAN.— The Washington
correspondent of the Philadelphia Ameri
can (opposition paper) in announcing that
President Buchanan will return from Bed
ford Springs early next week, thus speaks
of his untiring industry and regular habits :
Few men could have stood the wear and
tear so well during the last two years, and
but for his excellent habit, which some of
us envy, of sleeping. a given number of
hours, whether the u n ion was safe or not
at night fall. he must have fallen a victim
to his high office as others have done in

constantl than any ilruds . e in the public
service, and pursues details even to their
trifling oonclusiotts. It might be assrted•
with some degree of confidence that all the
Presidents in twenty years have not read
as many papers, cfr heard as many cases as
he has done, and, iwhat is more, appears to
have gained strength by it.
