"romantic
As the Yankees (that term is up lied to
all Americans here,) are proverbially .eg cu
rious," and fond of relics of antiquity,they
find many objects of interest here. Prof.
Pillens remarked the other day, that on vis
iting Holyrood Palace and Arthur's Seat,
in company with an American, he looked
with much more iutereat'on a little old di
lapidated house standing, on the side of the
hill, than on either. •of the others; the
reason of which is cinite
We have in, our own country, palaces
equal or even superior to Holyrood, and
hills much loftier than Arthur's Seat, but.
we have not the very ancient buildings.
Americann; thOugh by no means partial to
Kings and Queens, look with interest npon
the golden crown, and the ancient &Offish
regalia;which: are to he'seen in the old cas
tle at te top of High Street. There also
is a very ancient piece of' artillery, called
"Mons Meg ;" curious from being made of
hoops of wrought iron, and intended to
throw stone balls, speciinens of which are
lying by; and judging from their size, I
would conclude that -Mons Meg was not
intended to be loaded by one man.
Going from the castle down High Street,
we pass St. Giles' church, and the .c(pies
trian Statue of Charles 11., close to which,
it is thought, lies the mortal remains of
John Knox. Then on the left we pass the
room which was occupied as a study by the
late Hugh Miller; and now we cometo an
old-fashioned house, with nothing prepos
sessing in its appearance, but to, me the
most interesting relic in the city—the house
of the reformer, John Knox; There is the
identical window from which lie f , who
feared not man," was accustomed to warn
and entreat the' people. The sash, I be
lieve, has been renewed, but the original
style has been preserved.
In repairing old buildings in this coun
try, the original design is rigidly observed;
and I trust the same will be done in 're
pairing the Washington residence at Mt.
Vernon.
The monuments, of which there are a
great number, and many other objects of
interest, we must leave unnoticed.
The news is unimportant. The topic
which engaged the attention of the editors
and of' the people to some extent last week,
was "The Great Social 'Evil." On this

Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne, and Chicago Railroad,
The earnings of this road, in January, Feb
ruary, and March, this year, are $64,93/3 in ad
vance of •those of last year. This affords • a
'brightening • prospect.. By good management
and a patient perseverance, the Company may
overcome all difficulties. The road is a public
necessity. Its directness, as a continuation of
the great Pennsylvania Central, attracts a large
amtkunt of travel and freight.
The Crops
In the early opening of Spring, the 'indications
of an abundant harvest were exceedingly favor
able. The dry weather and high winds in March,
and in the first week of April, somewhat blighted
the husbandman's prospects. The
.late rains,
however, have greatly recovered the failing
grain. Early sowed wheat looks very fine, and
that 'which was late sowed is, for the most
part, commencing a hopeful progress. Our ex
changes speak very encouragingly.

DROWNED, in the Conemaugh River, near Salts

Miss Esther Elizabeth King, members of the

they bo found, any information sent to their
friends through the Post Master, Saltsburg; Pa.,
will be thankfully received. .
Congress.
Our national counsels are often the scenes of
things very unbecoming. Such are, however,
indicative of public sentiment. - Not that every
outbreak is justified; but public sentiment tol
erates things - very unbecoining, and even
plauds while it excuses, and thus there are repe
titions, time and again., If revilings and
personal outrages, on the floor of Congress, were
Visited with stern and persevering and general
disapprobation, they would soon, instead' of
abounding, become extremely rare.
Recently, Mr. Lovejoy, a man , of violentliel
ings and -strongly abolition sentiments, from
Illinois, made a severely denunciatory speech, in
the House, esusing, of course, much excitement
and some disorder. Mr. Potter, of Wisconsin, and
Mr. Pryor, of Virginia, took parts on the occa
sion. - Each' of these made corrections for the
press in the report of the proceedings prepared
for the Globe. These caused a new difficulty in
the House. Mr. Pryor sent a challenge. Mr.
Potter accepted, declaring that the duel' was, a
barbarity, and that he would use a barbarous
weapon—the Bowie knife. Mr. Pryor declined
this, as not being recognized in the "code of
of honor."
The "code " gives a decided advantage to
Southern, over Northern men. Not only do they
train themselves to the use of weapons, but. they
accustom themselves to the thought of the cony
filet, and nourish an approving conscience.
Then they are sustained as heroes by public sen 7
timent at home. The Northern man is unaccus
tomed to the weapon. His conscience condemns
him when he agrees to fight. If he fall, no
honor cleaves to his memory, and if he slay his
opponent, the home public still look upon him as
a transgressor, whose hands are stained, indeli
bly, with his brother's blood. We regretted the
acceptance of a challenge by Burlingame, though
his'opponent backed out: We regret the accept
ance by Potter. He may prove a want of real
courage on the part of his assailant, but he shows
a want of true moral principal in himself. 4
truly noble spirit will despise bullyism.
Kansas has been admitted, by the House, to
possess the right to a State sovereignty. The
Senate . still refuse to approve of the.bill. Legis 7
lation is not always equal. Oregon, with a less
population, was admitted. Possibly, after the
Convention at Charleston shall have determined
upon the Presidential nominee, Senators may feel
more free in the casting of their votes. . -
The "Homestead Bill, which passed the House
by a vote almost perfectly sectional, but three
Southern votes being in its favor, and three
Northern ones against it, still lingers in the
Senate.
Right of Way knitted.
RICHMOND, April 2.—The Bill giving the Pitts

that she has been troubled 'with worms for some
three years, and that she used one vial of Dr. , '
M'Lane's Celebrated Yermifuge, prepared by'
Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh, Pa., which
brought away over fifty large worms. Her usual
good health immediately returned.
Mrs. Quigby, No. 182 Essex Street, New York,,

Ile had visited the South, accompanied by, his wife, in the
lope of at least some tothporary benefit to his 'disease, but
lived only two days after reaching his destination. ,While
seeking benefit from a change of climate, he was not forget
ful of a preparation for that more important dhartge---a
change of worlds. Early in the progress of his disease, lie
bedtime convinced that he was not to recover; and then it was
that the religious training of early life was, under the
blessing of God, made to bring forth, its legitimate fruit, in
leading ltini to his Saviour., In the midst of a midcessful
with a brilliant future before him, lie gave up all without a
murmur or word of repining, and in the dignity of manhood
humblyenbmitted himself to the pivine will. As hie worldly
hopes faded away, he was graciously permitted by the eye of
faith to look upward to a heavenly prospect.: In the study
and contemplation of the word ofbodi and in secret 'Prayer,
he found joy, peace, and consolation. As le . journeyed
South, the messages that from time to time were.sent back .to
his friends. gave full evidence that as he was becoming sep
arated fp an them, he was in spirit and in theught approach
ing nearer and nearer his heavenly home.. And now they
have the assurance that united wills a mother and brother he
is singing the song of the redeemed. . • T.

TESTIMONIALS 01? THE CLERGY.
"I have given Nemo attention to the .'"Biblical Benson
Why," and feel bound to say that it seems to mo to contain a
vast amount of information on Biblical subjects, conveyed in
a clear manner, illustrated by many valuable wood-cuts, and,
printed on good paper. It constitutes a valualbt-additiop to
the apparatus of the Teacher. Parout.,and private ChrudAn."
Right Rev. ALONZO POTTER. A.D., LL.D.,
Bishop of Pennsylvania
.
.
" have examined the 'Biblical Reagan 'Why," 111141.8.nd ft
to be a repertory of facts on Biblical subjects, set foith in a
,plain and intelligible way. Indeed, I am surprised at the
amount of matter that . is compressed into this volume. For
nee in families and echixils I consider it the best look of the
kind I have seen."
Rev. JOHN MoCLINTOCH,'D.D., LL.D.,
President of the Troy University. and Pastor of St. Paul's
Church, ()Indic:dist Episcopal,) New York.
"I hove examined the useful "Band-Book for Biblical
Students," entitled The Biblical Reason Why. It condenses'
within a stnall comp .e and at a trilling cost, a ♦sat• amount,
of information on Scriptural subjects, which could be ob
tained elsewhere only by the labor and expense of eijalitiiing ,
many large Tribunes of Biblical lore. I can confidently
recommend the work, as a cafe and useful comps lion to the
Biblical Student, whether Minister, Sabbath School Teacher,
or private, Christian." Rev. JOTOI DOWLING; D.P.,
Author of "History of ROMaIIiRM." kc &c., and Pastor of
the Bedford Street Baptist Church, New York.
•" I should rejoice to have the hook in the hands of all the
children of our land. Young ChriMians and Bible Chases
would find more valuable Instruction in this brief volume,
than in any other of Ha size in our language, except in the

During the last fourteen years, some font. hundred patents
have been granted •.ort inventions designed to lighten thfr
drudgery of family sewing, and at the same time to prodnee
machine that could be profitably- used for Manufacturing
purposes; but,; strange to say, out of this' ler7S number of
Sewing Machines, only some half dozen havelo.7m,proven to
be of practical value; and of this small number, not one has
in it combinedthe advantages of O fanrily and iitentifitetaring
machine. There, are large, Leavy. noisy, cumbrous. ~and
complicated maCinnes, designed for heavy work, that linvwer
the purpose , very well; . while there are ethers , of 'light
mechanism and delicate adjustments, which perform on light
work to ativainage; and while the former are ticiu
sively confined to heavy work, the latter.are, of little value,
except on light fabrics. Therefore I take great Plearitire in
stating the important, fact .thot:Mr“Rown, the originalyin. ,
ventor of Sewing Machines; has Iw:witty-perfected his Shuttle
Machine aci as to combine, in nmuch emallet spaie and with

The public aro cordially invited to call at my rooms, NO.
