COURTSHIP & MATRINONY.—This is
the title of a volume from the portfolio of
Robert Morris, Esq., the able editor of the
Philadelphia Inquirer. In these days, it
is gratifying to find a volume, like the
present, wherein taste is tinvitiated and
sense undestroyed ; in which simpliciiy I

passions of our nature, but to inculcate
lessons of wiedem , as well as to draw to
tears and move to laughter. We ore re
minded, in rending these essays, of the
genial.hearted Goldsmith. They contain
the delicate lency, the good sense, and
the quiet humor which characterize Gold.
smith's writings ; and they are moreover
written with like correctness of language.
They treat beside that of courtship and
matrimony, of a variety of subjects, from
scenes and experiences in social lice, and
are particularly adapted for every day
family reading. They are, indeed, such
as will bear to be read aloud about the eve

not only the 'old folks at home,' but also
the 'little folks.' As the work has been
most enthusiastically praised by such men
as John Grigg, it is needless to say that

A INDElfil ALB%ANDER SELKIRK.
In the United States Districts Conn yes
terday, Judge Hervey presiding, was tried
the case of Jeremiah Austin, master of
ship Betsey Williams of New Bedford ,
charged with having lett on a deserted
island John Francis, a colored man, one
of his crew, in the month of November,
1855. The mate of this vessel, Mr. Wes
ton, has already been convicted of an as•
sank upon Francis with a belaying pin, by
.which the sight of one eye was destroy
ed.
John Francis testified to the fact of his
being put ashore. At the time that the
orders were given by the captain the wit
ness was below in irons; his irons were
knocked off, and he was put on board a
boat, the captain instructing them if they
could not land Francis without staving
the boat, to throw him overboard and let
him get ashore as beet he could. He says
that as he was leaving the vessel the cap
tain gave him one or two smart kicks,
an•l said that if he ebou'd live and any one
should ask who put him ashore, he should
reply, "Captain Austin kicked me ashore.''
They gave him a few articles of clothing
and landid him alone on the beach, after
which the ship sailed away, and he was
left the solitary inhabitant of the island.
For txenty•six days he lived on raw crabs
and young birds soskcd in the water, ta
king refuge in a hut, which he made of
sticks, at night, Every morning he was
in the habit of going down to the beach
before sunrise to look for a ship because
his eye could not hear the reflection of
the sun upon the sand. Finally the ship
Old Hector touched at the island, and he
was carried off to Talcahuano, where he
remained for seven mon hs ens a half in
the hospital. There was corraorative evi
dence of his being put ashore, and also
some evidence for the defense, which did
not deny that fact. The case will be ar
gued to morrow.
The island in quest ion is on, of the Ga.
lipagos Group, and was formerly used by
the Peruvian Government as a penal sta.
tion; it was afterward abandoned, but was
sometimes visited b) whalers for the beef
of the wild bullocks left upon the island,
and thls fact probably led to the rescue of
Francis. The trial of this case reminds
us of a somevi!nt similar case many ye ars
ago on board an English man sf war, which

ship a mere lad from the West Coast of
England, wh., had been caught in some
trivial theft, and for no other cause titan
this the captain ordered him to be tak en,
with scarcely any food or clothes, to a
then deserted island of the West India
Group, and notwithstandtug the protesta.
dons and tears of the lad, they tailed sway,
and left him to his fate. Afterward the
facts were made public in England and
great interest WAS expressed to know the
fate of the poor lad. So great was the ex
citement that at last the British govern.
sent was obliged to take notice of it, and
an expedition was sent especially to the
island to search for the boy. Nothing
was found there but a skeleton, from which
it was supposed that he had perished. It
was not long however before it was whis
pered that the boy had been rescued and
taken to the American continent. he
nglish Government found it necessary to
send another expedition for the public in
dignation grew hot against the inhuman
captain, and at last the lad was discovered
wilh a family et Marbiehead. a Yankee
yes el having rescued the boy at almost
the last moment from his place of abodon
meat. He was thus restored, after th e
lapse of a number of years, to his mother
in England. So much had the case at
tracted public notice, that as the vessel
reached the shores the greatest curiosity
was manifested to see hint, which coptin
ued as he passerthrough the country, and
in consequence of thin expression of pub.
lie opinion, the inhuman captain was obli
ged to compound for hie cruelty by the
payment to his victim of a large some of
money.
Austin was sentenced to pay a fine of
$lOO. The extent of the punishment
for this offense is $5OO fine, or six months
imprisonment. In a suit brought by Fran
cis for damages, Judge Harvey awarded
hint the sum of 800, to be paid by the
captain. The mate of the same ship was
fined $5O for assaulting Francis with a be.
laying pin.
Dacotah.
According to a letter in the St. Paul,
(Min,) Pioneer, the people cf Dacotah
have completed an independent temporary
organization of their Territory, to continue
until Congress shall give them the
usual form of Territorial government State
officers were appointed, a Legislature con.
vened, laws passed, &c., and the Minneso.
to code of 1857 adopted. The reasons as_
signed for this step are that the people aro
left entirely without laws, except those
promulgated by the Indians surrounding
them, or the still worse code as laid down
by Lynch and Bowie, and that the absence
1 1 of laws kept away emigration, In vindi
cation of their course was cited the exam
ple of California and Orevn under similar
cimutretanco...
The Late Election in Il inoia.
Rock Island, 11l , Nov. 10, 1858.
Some of the Republican newspapers in
this State wish to attribute the triumph of
Douglas, in the recent election, to the
course pursued by a part of the Eastern I
press, hut the party in Illinois find the rea•
sons for it nearer home. It teas apparent
, from the beginning that the large major'.
ties against us in Egypt would not affect
the result, but that the contest would be
decided in a few doubtful districts, where
the vote of '56 was so close as to give no
indication of the result. In these districts,
our organization was Imperfect, and strange
to say, comparatively little work was done. ;
Here was a large American element, which I
I it has been plain would decide the battle.
These men, who voted for Fillmore in '56,
had no pasty ties to bird them anywhere,
hat' no particular objection to the Exten
sion of Slavery, and "did not care whether
it was voted up or voted down ;" but they
generally voted the Douglas ticket, for no
other earthly reason than that they wished
to rebuke the corrupt Administration, The
Republicans are strong in the conscious
ness of having twice in succession elected
their State ticket, by good majorities, and
in the belief that some time our State will
he so divided into districts, that, when we
have a large majority of the People. we
may possibly Also have a small majority in
the Legislatu•e, and that at no election
hereafter will the "Nationals" go about
and make friends for our opponents by
abusing them.
Abraham Lincoln has fully equalled the
exectations of hi t moat partial friends; in
no instance has he varied one hair from the
orthodox Republican doctrine, and to•day
, he is nearer the hearts of the people than
any other man to the State.
; In Stephen A. Douglas, the Republi•
cans of Illinois have no confidence, and
never can hove in any pledge he may
make, public or private; they know his ca
parities for evil and his proclivities in that
direction. BROWN.
Extensive Issue of Fraudulent Bills.
It appears by the New York papers that
some persons in that city have been cluing
a pretty extensive business with pretended
issues of a Maine bank, The Times has
the following:
'The bills—they are all of the denomi
nation of ten and twenties—bear the ina•
press 'New England Bank,' and purport to
be issues of a bank bearing this: natne lo•
cated at Fairmount, in the State of Meine.
Maine, but no such banking institution
t h ere as th a t r:f.tmed. The issues are frau•
dulent, and got up in t';:.* most approved
style of deception, A firm of
note engravers is reported to have execu•
ted the engraving part of the job, and the
amount of bills put in the market is said
to be 6500,000. Of this large sum the
bulk has been taken into the Western
States, and $50,000 is said to have been
found among the Wall street brokers in
exchange for stocks. The bills are capi•
tally executed, and have been taken by the
best judges of money, and are signed by
E. Rittenhous, President, and A. Martin,
;cashier."
One broker in Wall street is said to have
passed off $15,000 of them; another $O,-
000, and still another $3,000. They
were not, it appears, aware of their true
character. The Times adds : •
A t he
"It is not known yet who introduce d
bills into the market, and who issued them
with a guilty knowledge. A young man
named Underhill was arrested at the Inter.
national Hotel, who had $4OO of the mo
ney iu his possession. He gave the pack
age of bills on his arrival at the hotel in
charge of the book-keeper. He gave a
boy an order on the cashier for $l5, in
payment 1:r some purchases sent there,
and through this citcumstance the charac
ter of the bills was brought to light. Un•
derhill was taken before Justice Kelly, and
held to await examination. He says that
he received the money of a broker in Wall
street in payment for some land in Cum
berland county, Pennsylvania.
Contested Seats in the Next Congress.
According to newspaper reports A. J,
Williamson, American, will contest the
right of Hon. Daniel E, Sickles, Demo
crat, to represent the third district of New
York in the thirty-sixth Congress. Gou
verneur Kemble, Democrat, will join issue
with Hon, John B. Hoskin, anti-Lecomp.
ton, for the right to represent the ninth
district of that State. John W. Ryan,
Republican, denies the claim of Hon
B. Florence, Democrat, to the seat of the
first district of Pennsylvania. Alfred W.
Johnsen, Democrat, will endeavor to show
before the next House of Representatives
that he is better entitled to vote for the
third district of Maine than Ezra B,
French, Republican, who has received the
certificate of election Francis P. Blair,
jr., Republican, has announced that he
stands ready to prove that his opponent, J.
Et Barrett, Democrat, in the the first dia.
trice of Missouri, was elected by fraud,
land on that ground he will claim the sent.

Pf 7 ooden Cannon Botts. —A Russian
corresspondent of the Radie,ter Union re I
hated the following anecdote of the Czar,
which shows that no , e , en Emperors are
exempt from the operatbns of sharpers :
' , Th, Emperor Alexander gave a large ,
order for the manufacture of cannon balls
to some concern at Ildsingfors, a port on
the Gulf. They completed the order, stac
ked up and delivered the bulls, received
their pay, and put the money in their
pocket. The Einpero. being there one
day, lie took it it into his head to inspect
the balls. Taking one up, he discovered
it to t e exceedingly het for iron, and to.
king out his knife scraped it, and behold
it was a wooden ball painted black ; ns was ,
the entire lot. He caused the arrest of
the swindlers, and they were transported
for life to Siberia."
Supposed Insanity of the President.
A writ de lunatic,' tbquirendo in the
case of James Buclinnan, would be well
timed just now. There have, for some
months, been doubts as to the sanity of

elections must have still further damaged

56 The administration party in
is completely broken up. The votes' re
ceived by the candidates ore so few that
they are not thought worthy of being re

is more galling to the President then the
success of the Republicans would hove
been, and his friends must be opprelien
sire of the worst effects from it upon his
disordered mind. If the President is re.
ally insane, as his course since his inaug
ration wool I indicate, some measures
ought to be adopted to prevent further in
jury to the country and its interests from
his madness, The Constitution makes
no special provision for the emergency of
a crazy Chief Nlagistrate. though there is
a provision for his “inabitity to discharge
the duties of his office." This einergeo

a CONVICTED —As will be seen by our
court reports, "E. L. Snow, Esq.," of New
York. has beon e nvicted of receiving tho
avails of many robberies committed in phil
adelphin, know:ng the circumstances un,
der which said 'merchandise was procur.
ed, The arrest of Mr. Snow was an im
portant one, his offence was a grave one,
and his sentance will probably be propor-
'innately severe. Mr. Snow's case is a
hard one, yet it is the case of every man
who sets a rat trap to catch bears. Mr.
Snow undertook to find a short cut to for
tune, yet in following it up came to a
dead halt at the doors of the penitentiary.
Mr. Snow was the proprietor of a dry
goods store to Brand street, New York,
and olso of an establishment. Herkimer
county, in the same state. Although os
tensibly the proprietor of a dry goods stole
where great bargains were to be had, the
police knew perfectly well that he was in
reality the head of a "fence" establishment
where burglars could securely dispose of
their plunder. When the heavy robber
ries at the store of Barcroft Beaver & Co.,
and other establishments in this city ,
were committed, Snow was telegraphed
f ir by the robbers, came on to this city
and purchased the goods for a tenth of
their value Silks and rich laces were
pocked up in barrels, as though they were
so many apples, and in that way were sent
to New York, without suspicion, and de
pcmited in Snow's stole.
In course of time the burglars were ar
rested, and one of the members of the gang
of burglars, not being entirely destitute of
honesty, told the whole story. This story
was confirmed by Tout Walker, the mas
ter spirit t . f the party, when he felt that he
was dying, in prison. Snow wss arres•
ted and held by the ltecorder in *lO,OOO
bail to answer. With his subsetibent re
lease upon bail. his escape to Canada, and
his re-arrest by some rather sharp prac
tice our readers are already acquainted.

community. while It commiserates the

self that for once an example has been
made in bringing tm justice a noted one
