Prussian Brutalityg
AN AMERICAN IN A PRUSSIAN PRISONI-
A letter from Basle, Switzerland, dated
Aug. 13, to the Philadelphia Pennsylvu.
nian, says that a citizen of Harrisburg,
Pa., named Beck, is now imprisoned in
the Fortress of Rostatt, by the Prussians
for some political offence; and that they
are ready to relieve him on his giving
guarantee that he will ituimediately leave
for the United States, and never return
again to Continental Europe. The same
writer also adds :
"Only yesterday morning, in this
neighborhood, in Frieburg, a young, in
telligent, and literary man, named Neff,
personally known to me, was shot, hav
ing been found guilty by a Prussian court
martial of exciting, by writing, the pdo
ple of Baden and Germany to be dissat
isfied with the present form of govern
ment ; and last, but not least, of being
in correspondence with the democrats of
France, Switzerland and America !
Upon these grounds, the man (only 27
years old, and only support of an aged,
widowed mother,) was condemned and
shot. He died like a man. When arri
ved at the place of execution, he swung
his hat, and exclamed in a loud voice,
Long live German Liberty—long live
Vie German Republic !" These were
his last words, and eight bullets enter
ed his breast at the same instant. The
executioners were as pale as death,
Whilst Neff looked cheerful.
LAMA SHEEP FOR AMERICA.-Mr. L. T.
Brown, of the U. S. Legation at Bolivia
has written to Managers of the Amer--
tan Institute offering to procure alpacca
Vicuna or Lama sheep for America Ag
riculturists. Their Cost in Bolivia is
from three to five dollars each, but on
account of the difficulty of transporta
tion, they would be worth $75 each de
livered in New York.
Sleep.
We term sleep a death; and yet it is
Waking that kills us, and destroys spir•
Its that are the house of life.
It is indeed a part of life that best
expresseth death ; for every man truly
lives so long as he acts his nature, or
some way makes good the faculties of
himself. Themistocles, therefore, who
slew the soldier in his sleep, was a mer
ciful executioner, It is a kind of punish
ment the mildness of no laws hath inven
ted. It is that death we may literally
be said to die daily, a death which Aduin
died before his mortality; a death
whereby we live; a middle and moder
ating point between life and death. In
fine, so like death, I dare not . trust it
Without my prayers, and a holy adieu
unto the world.
THE NUMBER OF DOGS IN TILE UNITED I
STATES.-If it bo within the power of
those who are to give directions about
tile next census, we hope they will tuke
measures to ascertain the number of dogs
ina:e and female in every county in the
Union, and if it could be done, it would
be useful, also to have a return of the
number of sheep killed by dogs. At
two cents a day, it is probable that the
cost of dogs is equal to the value of our
exports of grain arid provisions this year
and it is not impossible that our sheep
husbandry would add as much more to
Vie wealth of the country, if it were
not for the fear of having the sheep de ,
stroyed by dogs.
We are no enemy of clogs, of genuine
blood kept and used for their legitimate
purposes-all such will ever find in us
strong friends and defenders.-13ut we
have a great aversion to idle useless,
whelps, born only to consume the frnits
of the land. Whether they go on four
legs or two I—The Plough the Loom and

pain in the aide and shoulder, Weariness of body,

life has become a burden front the racking parox

been the situation of thousands who are now
