A CURIOSITY:—We were shown, last

count,y,• a piece of cloth which was a
part ot a wrapperlon the body or mum
my of Tantus, the just one." There was
nothing left of the body but the bones,
and some of the soft parts.. It was bur
ied 1,425 years B. C., and was taken
from the sepulchre in Thebes by pro
fesSor Anderson, the historian, in the
year 1848, but has just recently arrived
in this country, and was opened in the
Cooper Institute, New York, in Res
. ence of the Historical Society. 'The
cloth was the middle wrapper of twen
ty-five which were around his body.—
It shows that even embalming will not
f.;i keep the body from turning into"deist,
and that the materials 'in which it is
I wrapped will long outlast the body.—
The only way we can vouch for the age
of the mummy is by the translation of
the inscriptions on the Sarcophagus,
which shows that it is 3,289 years old.—
The material of which the cloth Is com
posed and the manner in which it is
made shows conclusively that the peo
ple of those days knew nothing of the
art of making Shoddy. Elegantly wo

such legislation the Legislature cannot
accom pl ish ;so much evil in a continuous
session of live years as it does ow in a
session of thret months. Du lng the

bills passed, or were conside ed, and
not more than fifty general la a appear
to offset,them. So, it i safe a ough to
say, • that the legislature co ld pass
all the necessary general lawr for one
year in a session of one month at a cost
of not more than $3OO per member.—
This would be a saving of,at least

should go Republican, this would give
the Republicans 15 majority, with the

tract. James and Rachati Paylor lived
together husband and wife, maintain

,than that of a mutual agreement, which
they have maintained honorably
°neatly. In all the legal instruments
executed by-them, the 'legal relation: of
man and
- wife was acknowledged.' Re

children surviving. Relatives under-.
took to deprive hen'of her, right ofdower
on the ground that they were never
lawfully married. The Court decided
the facts, as proved, establishing her
wifehood Sufficiently under the laws ;of
the State of Ohio. • • •. •
