it,Habcook and Ingalls knew all aboutand were interested in it.

On my return to the United States,General Babcook told me I had noright to oppose grants and conceptionsof lands, aud that I had injured thecliaoces of annexation by fo doing. Ia*k any friend of annexation to point outone exaggerated or falso gtutcment inany of my correspondence. I simplywished the truth known. I found greatdifficulty ou my return from San Doiniugo to induce any advocate of annex-ation to lieten to it. I soon discoveredthat the annexution of 8an Domingowas to bo rushed through by fiiir meansor foul. The authorities woulJ notlitton to the truth themselves; much lesswould they allow the public to be en-lightened.

If a commission appointed by theUnited States government goea to SanDomingo, it will take a much loneertime tbau three nr four weeks to properly inquire into the true Btute of affairs.Let tho United States puns bo with-drawn ; lot tho people of the island havea free vote, uniotimidated by the bay-onets of Baez's troops supplied from theUnited States arsenal*, paid out of thefundB extracted from the United StatesTreasury, and handed over to the Presi-dent of Sun Domingo by the privatesecretary of the President of the UnitedStates; annul the grants and concessionsgiven ; let Dominicans be sent to Wash-ington to represent the wishes of theirpeople; and then unncxatiou would bemore fairly oonsidered. There are manyintelligent, upright, and influei;ti;»

Good Humor.Can you define good-humor ? Ws

all know what it is. We can feel andnjoy it, but it is hard to pio the thingtown to any formal definition.

The good-humored man is at allvents a happy mm, a man to be envied,. man on whom trouble sits lighlly,

and a mm who confers as much happi-ness as be enjoys. He radiates it, as itwere, and his good liumor becomes anatmosphere in whiob other peoples';ood humor, latent or pined half todeath, comes out renewed, and flour-she s.

Good humor cin scarcely be called amoral virtue. It depends perhaps asnuch on disposition aud the perfect ac-ion of the liver as on anything else. Arood humored mun must bo iptofacto aeupeptic man, a man that enjoys a gooddinner. Now a quality which dependsupon the action of a man's liv«r canscarcely be a high moral quality.

And yet has a man a right to be dyspeptic? Is it not a moral duty not tooe ? Setting aside rure oases of inevita-Die misfortune, is not dyspepsia a man'sown fault generally, the result of bisgluttony, bis laziness, big stupidity, hiscarelessness or his ignorance r And arethese things moral virtues ?

Has a man any right to make himselfwretched, to people the world with hor-rora, to be a nuisance to himself andeverybody around him, because be lacksthe sense to control his appetite or theenergy to take sufficient exercise tokeep his liver healthy 'i One of theseduvB wo shall come to tho oonclusionthat the snarling, fretful, ill-natured orcomplaining and depressed victim is notmerely to be pitied, but deserves to bepunished as be is. He may be very de-votional, in his way. He may makehigh pretensions to piety and religiousfeeling, but be is none tbe less a nui-sance, and, on the whole, dyppeptic pietyin as unhealthy ae any other dyspoptiothing.

Raymond H. Perry on San Domingo.To the Jidilor of Hit Hun :—

SIR—Our pross i« fried with theopinions of various individuals in regardto tho proposed aunexation of Pan Do-mingo, aud in all probability these opin-ions are «>xpressed by persous who iureality know but very little of the mat-ter in niiy of its nspects. I have readthese articles, as well as the reportsfrom Washington, and can no longer refruin from stating a few facts in regnrdto the motives of some of the parlieswho at present are ?o strongly advocat-ing that mefisurc, even at the risk of being considered egotistical or accused ofpersonal feeling. [ write this letterfrom a sense of duty to tho pubHo, and« feeling of indignation that thciuterest-ed motives of a certain ring of politiculspeculators i-hould be so carefully con-ceuled from public observation, and thereal truth of matters so little knownTbe aunexa'ion of San Domingo as LOWmanipulated would be a huge swindleupon the Uuitcd Statts government, en-riching a few friends of the administra-tion and taxing our goveri.ment millionsof treasure. I told an officer attachedto the Executive mansion that GeneralBabcock was a miserable tool in thebands of a set of tricksters, such asBuez, Cazncau, Fabenp, and other par-ties when) I might name, ibat were mis-leading the. Pre»id< ut, Tcis official toldme he knew it, and that it was my dutyto inform the President. The depart-ment of State at Washington also in-formed me that General Babcock badacted very wrongly in this matter, andthat tbe department had frequentlycautioned him against these men (Caz-neau, FubeDs & Co.) as well as othersconnected wilh the San Domingo affairsaud that all the correspondence, &c,&c, relating to the annexation schemehad been carried on directly betweenthe President, through General Bab-cock, and these very parties, and notthrough the State Department, the onlyproper cud legfeiirjato channel.

Wb'lo residing at San Domingo CityI had frequency written to the StateDepartment at Washington, cs wall asthe President's private secretary (Gen-eral Babcock) warning them against theabove-named parties, who had frequent-ly told me that they held Presidentliaez between their thumb arid fiuger,owing to the grants and concessions oflands they hold on the ishu d that Bticzhimstlf had wade (o them for their mu-tual benefit. I have now iu my posses-sion copies of Homo of those grants audcouces-ions, which are almost fabulousin their extent, some having been givensecretly since the signing of the treaty.These I opposed, as they were in directviolation of srticlo tix of the treaty,wiiicti I wan commissioned by PresidentGrant to nitke aud sign ou buhalf of theUnited States; which being done, I wasfrequently requested by Messrs. Baez,Babcook, &o., to keep secret until anaval force arrived at the island to pro-tect Baez aud bis Cabinet, which lcrce,Babcock assured Baez, was ready tosail for San Domingo as soon as thetreaty was signed, which assertion wasin a few days verified by the arrival ofthe United States steamers Nautaukatand Swatara, thereby enabling Mr. Baezfor the first time to annouuoe to hispeople tbat be had s-'ld them and theircountry to the United States. Bae« didnot make this announcement until bislieadqu&rters were well covered by thejunsofthe United States nieu-of-war,ind he had quietly imprisoned or ban-ished many influential people from theisland who he thought would oppose hisschemes It has. been asserted thutthese vessels were to protect him (Baez)from foreign intervention ; but marinesand sailors were offered to Presidentliaez in my presecoe by a commandingofficer to proteot him against the opposere of annexation and Cabral's forces,who were Dominicans, The prisonswere BO filled with Ibis class of peopletbat Baci aud Cazneau asked me to usemy influence with Admiral Poor to havethese prisoners sent to Saru»na, whichbad just been leased to thu UnitedStates, and there confined under theguns of our meu-of war. Tho Admiralreplied to Baez that the United Statesgovornmeut would not approve of this(the Admiral's) making a "Fernando. o" ol SamiitiB.

Senator Morton, among olher erron-eous assertions, slutos that "Cabral hashad no force wherewith to threatenBaez," while Baez has frequently report-ed to me large forces of Cabral's in dif-ferent parts of his territory, and on oneoccasion In' (Baez) told me that CUITBIwas marching on San Domingo Citywith a large body of troops, and unlessa United HtateB ship could be obtainedhe and his staff must leave the island.This report was generally believed, andAmerican citizens made arrangementsto come to my house in case the citywas attacked. The forces were then en-gaged at Azua, two or three day's marchfrom the capital. Having received in-structions from General jiabcock thatthe mc-n-of-war were for the protectionand support of Mr. Baez, I wrote des-patches to Captain Bunoe, of tho Nan-tasket, requesting him to come immedi-ately to San Domingo City, which heoomplied with. On this, as on all otheroccasions, Baez adviied with Cazneauand Fabeos, frequently mentioning tomo as hie reason for so doing that they

were the special agents of PresidentGrant, and knew all hia wishes audplans, being iu direot correspondencewith him.

About this lime these men, not con-tent with th«ir already immense grants,applied to Buez for a concession of twohundred thousand (200,000) aeres ofland, and the Dominican Senate wereinstructed directly by Baez to grant thisconcession to them. This was to havebeen accomplished in secret session.Some of the Senators, friends of aunoxa-tion, oalled upon mo at my house, amongthem a brotherTot President Baez, andwished me to oppose this concession orgrant, as they thought this, us well asother matters I have not yet alluded to,a shnnefiil violation of the treaty. Iwrote and called upon both PresidentBaez and Cazueati in relation to tbi*matter. They denied all knowledge ofit at first; but wheu convinced I knewall about it, they iuformed me that suchmatters were not within the sphere ofmy duties, and that I was workingagainst my owu friends ; that Generals d«ut in Paraguay. That's tbe oouutrv

On the ninth day the great massesfor tbe repose of the soul of the depart-ed are said in the parish church, and alltho friends of the family are erpectedto be present. These masses are themost important and expensive incidentof the funeral. They cost from twoKindred to one thousand dollars, accord-ng to tbe strength and fervor ot the

orisons employed. They are repeatedseveral years on the anniversary of thedecease, and afford a most sure andNourishing revenue to the Church. Theyare founded upon those feelings insepar-able from every human heart, vanity andaffection. Our dead friends must be aswell prayed for as those of others, andwho knows but that they may be indeadly need of prayers! To ehortontheir fiery penance by one hour, whowould not fast for a week ? On 'theseanniversaries a black-bordered advertise-ment appear* in the newspapers, headedby the sign of the cross and tho lie-quicscat in Paec, announcing tbat onthis day twelve months Don Fulano deTal passed from earth garnished with tbeholy sacraments, that all the masses thisday celebrated in such and such churoh-es will be applied to the benefit of hisspirit's repose, and that si) Christianfrietds are hereby requested to commendhia ioul this day unto God. Theseunited efforts at stated times are regard-ed as very efficacious.

A luxury of grief, in those who canaflord it, consists in shutting up thohouse where a death has taken plaoo andnever suffering it to be opened again. Ionce saw a bcnutiful house and widegarden thus abandoned iu one of themost fashionable streets of Madrid. Iinquired about it and found it wa9 formerly the residence of the Duke of .His wife had died there many yean be-fore, and since that day not a door nor awindow had been rpened. The gardengates were red aud rough with rust.(Jrass grew tall and rank in the gravel-ed walks. A thick lush under-growthhad over-run tho flower-beds and thelawns. The blinds were rotting overthe darkened windows. Luxuriant vinesclambered over all tbe rnossj doors. Thestuoco was peeling from tne walls ingreat unwholesome blotohes. Wild birdosang all day in the safe solitudo. Therewas something impressive in thisopot ofmould aud eilenoe, laying there so greenaud implacable in the very heart of agreat and noisy city. The Duks livedin Paris, leading the rattling life of aman of tho world. He never would sellor let that Madrid house. Perhaps inhis heart also, that battered thorough-fare worn by the pattering boots ofMabille and the Bois, and the quarterBreda, there was a green spot saorod tomemory and silence, where no footfallshould ever light, where no living voioeshould ever be heard, shut out from theworld and its pleasures, where throughthe gloom of dead days he eould catcha glimpse of a white hand, a flash of adark eye, the rustle of a trailing robe,and feel sweeping over him theoldmagioof lore's ,youug dream, softening hisfanoy to tender regret and his eyes to ahappy mist,

"Liko thut which kept the heart of Men ereenBefore the useful trouble of the rain."

—From the ATLANTIC MONTHLY for^Feh-ruary.

Bayonets have just elected a Pres.i-

gcntlt.-tnen sat down in (heir leatherbottom chaira to lo. k over this matterand to ducide on what they should do.'•Well," says Captain A., "if E. hasfailed I suppose we have, too, haven'twe, brother?" "Why, yes," repliedCaptain E , "I don't tee but we have ;and if we have failed, we must take downour sign, aud not pretend to be doingbusiness in the ordiuary way."

Those points settled, the old gentle-men pioceeded to dismantle their storeof its we».her stained old sign, and thensat themselves down to wait for credit-ors to come in aud attach their goodsand chattels. But to their surprise no-body otimo near them, and they wentthrough the forenoon as usual. Atdinner time they made their way withseriousness to their respective homes,and as Captain E. reached his fine oldmansion on H street, he lookedoautiously an-und, expecting to seestrange faces in his apartmunts. Butseeing cone, he turns to his eldest daugh-ter, and in a solemn voice inquires: ''Isthere nobody here but the family, mydaughter?" "Nobody, father." "Havethere not been any strangers here this'orenoon ?" "No one. Why, did youexpect any one, father?" "Why yes.I have failed, my daughter; at least, Isuppose I have; for E. has; and I ex-pect the sheriffs here and keepers."

But DO sheriffs came, and no creditorstroubled the old men. Everybody knew;hat they would pay their bonest debts,and meet all their engagements if it wasa their power so to do; and that it was

useless and senseless to resort to theusual methods of collecting debts ofthem. So, in spite of all the brothersoould do to fail and have their propertyattached, nobody seemed inclined to dis-turb them; and so they utterly failed to'ail, to the great amusement of theiryounger neighbors in trade, some ofwhom, though now old themselves, con-tinue to laugh over Captain E. & Co.'sattempt to fail.

Ike at (be Opera.Sinoe the night when Ike went to the

opera, he has been, *fl Mrs. Partingtonsiys, crazy, and the kind old dame hasseen fearful least he should become nonirompus mentus, through his attempt atmitating the operations. The morningafter the opera, at the breakfast table,[lie handed over tbe cup, and in a softougue sang,

"Will you, will you, lire. P.,Help ine to a eup of tea !

The old lady looked at him with sur-prise, his conduct was so unusual, andfor a moment she hesitated. He continued in a far more impassioned strain :

Do not keep me waiting.Bo not, pray, be he&itating,I am anxious to be drinking,So pour out as quick as winking.

She gave him the Ua with a sigh, asshe suw the excitement in bis face. Hestirred it in silence, and in his abstrao-:i»ns took three spoonfuls of sugar. Atast he sang again :

Tulik clutlis, «n<l cups and saucers,Good white Dread, and uctive jaws, birs,Tea—gunpowder and souchong—Sweet enough, but not too strong.

" What do you Mean, my boy ?'' saidMrs. Partington, tenderly.

All ri^ht, steady, never dearer,Never loved a breakfast dearer,I'm not bound by witch or wi/.znrd,So don't fret your precious gu>card.

"But, Isaac " persisied tbedame. Ike struck his left hand uponthe table, aud swung his knife aloft inbis right, looking at a plate upon thotable and singing—

What form i» that to me appearing!Is it mackerel, or in it herring ?I-et me dash upon it quick—Ne'er again that n.sh shall kick—Charge upon thorn, loaae, chargo

Before he had a chunoe to make ada«h upon the fish, Mrs. l'artiugton haddaehed a tumbler of cold water in bisface to restore him to "oousoientiounessIt made him catch his breath for a mo-ment, but he didn't sing any more at thetable, tbougb the opera fever still follows him elsewhera.

A man wrote to Horaoe Greeley fora situation, and received the followingletter in Horace's handwriting : ''Thisis the 2,000th application in a week.—Go to the devil. I oant hire everyd—d fool." The document wts signedHoraoe Greeley, but no one oould readit, The mnn presented it to tbe cash-ier, who looked it ovor and hauded theman $'2.0, supposing it to be an orderfor his Bwlary, aud he has been drawingbis salary on that letter regularly for.six months. What a warning this is tothe youth of the country to learn towrite.

Tbe Saa Domingo Commission.Prof TYLER, of the Michigan Univer-

sity, writes from Washington to theBrooklyn Union, uuier date of January14th , as follows :

Tho notable event of to-day has beentbe preaenoo in town of President Whiteof Cornell University, the youngest andhigheet man on tbe San Domingo Com-mission. He arrived this morning andtook rooms at the Arlington. Imme-diately ufter he paid his respects toPresident Grant, with whom be had along and satisfactory interview. As towhut passed betweeu them I am at lib-erty to state tbe subst«noo, and I have itfrom very high and absolutely reliableauthority. It wt.s the first time thatPresident Grant had ever seen White;and it is greatly to the honor of thePresideLt thnt in making the appoint-ment he did not know, nor does he nowknow, what may be Mr. White's privateviews upon San Domingo, or"aiaiiifestdestiny" in general. He selected himas he did Mr Howe, simply boeau.-e hehad evidenoe that both of them are high-minded men, cunscientious and strongmen, who will K-nd themselves to nojobs, aud whiso conclusions will cora-macd the confidence of tho country.—Mr. Whi'e himself haii felt much reluc-tance about undertaking the task whichwas offered to him. Ho ki,ew its deli-cacy and difficulty. Moreover, for thomany charges and insinuations of cor-ruption which have been made, hefeared lest he might be onteriug openan extremely unpleasant employment.—In tbe interview referred to, the Presi-dent went over the history of the wholeaffair, and expressed very candidly hisviews as to what should bo tbe matureand extent of the investigation to bemade. He spoke quietly, but earnestly,and with a sincere and siinplo-heartedfrankuess of manner that could not besimulated, and that impressed thosewho heard him with tbe conviction thathe really desires to have the whole truthcome out—no matter who may be hurtby it. Again and again the Presidentsaid : "I want you to probe matters tothe bottom. Investigate everythiug.—Find out and tell t-quarcly the entirecase, just as it is. I don't wish to in-fluouce you to make a report on one sideor the other. I am ready to be con-verted, by the anti-annexationists, justas I hope they are ready to be convert-ed to favor annexation. What I wantis just what the country wants, and thatis—the real facts, Especially investi-gate tbe evidence as to jobs and land"rants, aud any money making con-tracts. Don't hesitate to expose any-body and everybody whom you may findguilty ol dishonest dealings."

This was the substance and verynearly the language of what PresidentGrant said; aud it is due to him andto the country that it should be knowniu how honorable and magnanimous aspirit he has given his instructions tothe Commissioners. The President has

ne further, and has explicitly statedLo these gentlemen, in the most sincereand earnest manner, that they a~e notto be trammeled or bia»ed iu any way.In tbe course of his interview with thePresident, Mr. White suggested that inorder to accomplish the utmost goodwhile iu the island, it would be desira-ble that tho Commissioners should havethe assistance of several energetic mo aof science and linguistic learning, whocould aid them by pushing out in everydirection, and bring in results as to soil,uliin»te, manners and customs, popularfeeling, eto. The President acceptedpromptly this suggestion, and authoriz-ed Mr. White to carry it out. Accor-dingly he immediately sent telegrams tohis own University, to Yale, Harvard,Rochester, and elsewhere, and summon-ed to meet in New York just the menwhom be requires, and who will attendthe expedition without any pay otheriban that of their expenses. Beforehe left his home, Mr. White also gaveorders to his bookseller iu New York,Mr. WeHtorniann. to collect for him,aod have iu readiness by the day ofsailing, every book and pamphlet, inany language, in any way relating to thehistory, climate, material resources, orpopulation of San Domingo. Uponthese books he means to set himself andhii< secretaries to work as soon as theship starts, and to gather from themand classify all the knowledge that basyet been published upen the subject.

All these statements show how earneetly the Commissioners have gone towork. They mean business. The Presi-dent means business. Tbe San Domin-go Commission is not composed of automatic or soft-heads. Its work will beno sham,_whiobever conclusion it reach-es.

An i:\iinct Family.It is a curious fact that there are no

known deccendantsjof Christopher Co-lumbus. He bad two sons, One of whom,Don Diego, rose to distinction as an ad-miral, aud the other, Fernando, as ascholar. Fernando was a great traveler. He not only thrice visited Ameri-oa, but subsequently traversed tbo wholeof Europe, aud every accessible portionof Asia aud Afrion. He appears tohave been a profound scholar aud athoroughly good man. In his will hestipulated that bis library, containingtwenty thousand volumes, whioh he gaveto the Cathedral of Seville, should befree to the people, and it is to this day.From books in this collection the lateWashing'on Irving obtained a consid-erable portion of tho information onwhich hia " Life of Columbus " wasfoanded. The following quaint epitaphalmost obliterated by time, appears onthe table whioh marks tho site of histomb : "What doth it profit to havesprinkled the whole world with mysweat; to have three times crossed theNew World discovered by my father ;to have embellished the shores of tran-quil Guadalquiver, and preferred mysimple tastes ralher tbun riolics, o thatI have assembled mound thee tbe di-vinities from the source of Castalia, andoffer to theo the riches gathered byPtolemy, if pasniug iu si'cuce over thisstoin'-, thou rhouldcst fuil to address asingle fsalutation to iny father's memo•7." • .

Elbe Rogers .Harder Oyster; Solved.AtBURs, N. Y., Jan. 14.

Tho murderer of Mr. Rogers, in NewYork, on the morning of December 31,1868, bas just been discovered in theperson of a convict in the Auburn SlatePrison, named Francis E. Pintow. Thedetection of the murderer was broughtabout by the shrewdness and vigilanceof keeper N. V. B. Hoffman, whose at-tention was first attracted to the mur-der«r by bis peculiarly nervous appear*ance in tbe State shop where he badbeen employed. The man is a trans-ferred prisoner from Siag Sing, to whichprison he was sentenced from NowYork ou the 3d of February, I860, tofive years' imprisonment for graudlarceny. He was transferred to Auburnlast spring. And noticing his peeuli»ri«ties Hoffman was struck by remarks byhim to a fellow convict iu rotation to tbeRogers affair. Pintow was afterwardsdrawn out by a comrade at Hoffman'sinstance aod made a clean breast of thecircumstances conneeted with the rob-bery and murder. Pintow's confessionie not yet given in detail. He is now insolitary confinement in a dungeon formisconduct. The efficers of the prisonsay his disclosures are in every wayconclusive of his guilt. He is refusingfood at present, and declares he will yetcheat the gallows by starvation.

A CONTRADICTION DOMES.Piutow, the self-accused murderer of

Chas. Rogers, turns out to be only play-ing a trick to be relieved from a darkoell to whioh be had been consigned formisconduct as a prisoner in the Aubnrnprison. His confession is a lie from be-ginning to end. He was confined in thuTombs at the time of the murder.

Civil vs. Ecclesiastical Courts.SI'RINGKIELD, I I I . , Jan. 24.

The Supreme Court this morning an-nounced the decision in the oase of Clioney r». Chase and others, reversing thedecree of the Superior Court of Chica-go, dissolving tha injunction and dismis-sing the bill The decision is ununi-mous. Tho opinion of the court is byJudge Ihorut'iti. Chief Justice Law-rence and Judge Sheldon filo a separateopinion. The court decide.* that tho ec-clesiastical ooui t had jurisdiction of thesubject matter of the charge ugainst theaeoueod, and also of his person ; thatthe commission to the prosecutor* con-stitutes no p>>rt <>f the jurisdiction andis not before the court; Unit a suGiuiei.tpresentment uud the attendance of the•ccuted o'ergymaa to answer it, with orwithout citation, conferred jurisdiction00 the ouulesiantical court. The courtdecides thbt the presentment was suf-fioient uiider the canons of the churchand the rules of law, aud Mr. Cheneyappearing in obedience to a proper cita-tion, duly served, the occk'sinstical courthave full jurisdiction of the proceeding,and uo objection can be made in a courtof equity to any rulings hereafter made.The court reviews the decisions of theecclesiastical court on the material ques-tions presented to them, and approvessuoh ruliug*. The dooree of the Supe-rior C jurt is held to be a violation ofthe fundamental principle ricguized iuthis (country by the Constitution thatohuroh and State will be kept separate.A court of law will not interfere withthe administration of discip!i:io or theadjudications of a church court unlessproperty is involved. A clergyman hasa penuniary vnlue but by the constitu-tion and laws of the Protestant Episco-pal Church its enjoyment depends onoBedicuco to the regulations of theeburch and submission to its judgment?.The majority of the court decides thatthe docinion of the ecc'esias'.ical courton its own jurisdiction is conclusive, andno inquiry will be miule as toils correctnoes in a oourt of Chancery. On thispoint Chief Justice Lawrence and Jus-tice Sheldon disagree with the majorityof the onurt, ihoy holding that suchquestion muy be examined and if juris-diction does not exist i^judament willbe void. Upon all other points all theJudges concur.

I t will be remembered that JudgeJ»me-on, of the Chicago Superior courtgranted an injunction discontinuing thotriit 1 by the ecolctias!ical court. Thopresent decision overrules Judge Jame-sou'd judgment and opens the way forthe resumption of the trial in questionbefore the church tribiina .

CHILDS presented the "inemorii.l of theSuporvis«s of WashUnnw county forthe abolishment of the office of Super-intendent of School*." Similar memo-rials have been presented from othercounties.

Without entering at length up.in thediscus8i«« of tlie proposed measure, wera-ay express a hope that the Legislaturewill "make haste slowly," and that itwill hesitate long before taking the back-ward ttep prayod for. Wo believe inthe County Superintendent system, be-lieved in it long before tho adoption ofit in 1S67, and hsvo seen uo good roasons, to our mind, for going back to theold law.

It is no doubt true thai the pay ofthe several boards of Township Insdec-tors did not equal tuo salary of iho bu-peiiutendcnt, and it is equally true,—with no disrespect to any who may be,or who m»y have been School Insjieotors, having enjoyed that honor onceouraelf—that msuy of tbe Inspectorswere selected without any speoial reference to qualifications, but merely to tiila ticket, while in many other cases theTownship clerk's, ex officio Inspectors,were notoriously unqualified for the du-ties assigned to them. Therefore, ifmore money is paid under the present system, it is with a view to morethorough and compete t supervision ofthe schools.

— Sinoe the roport Dr. SHANNON, thoAdrian abortionist, has been pardoned.We have not seen the reasoa9 assigned,but if there was not wholesale perjuryat his trial,—and we dou't believe therewas against him—he ought to have beenpermitted to servo the State the-fulltimo of his sentence.

ThePatriot says : "Everybody seems to besatisfied that there wore strong mitigat-ing features of tho prisoner's act, andnot one, that wo have heard, has saidthat tbe prisoner deserved more than hreceived.

THE Prosident wrote to members oitho Nebraska Legislature, endorsingSenator TIIAYKR and asking his re c-leo-tion. It killed him.

Believing in Lifo Insurance not onlyas a privilege but as a duty, a duty whichshould not be shirked by the man of linilttiimeans with a family dependent upon him, bthe artisan, trader, fanner, or professionalman, a duty which the man of larger meansremembering the trite ami truthful say log"Hichcs take unto themselves wings andfly away,1' will hasten to discharge, andpracticing for ourself what we believe, wecheerfully ea!l attention to the attractiveadvertisement iu this Issue, of tbe "NationalLife Insurance Company," chartered by actof Congress, with a cash capital of $1,000,-000 and a surplus of over $G00,000, andmanaged by some of the best known andablest financiers of the country. Com-mencing business in the latter part of 18G3it has established itselt in the confluenceof the public, and already is able to make-a better showing tlian some of the oldercompanies recognized as first-class. A re-cent number of the Insuranet Timm creditsit with an Issue of 4,000 policies during1870, insuring in the sum of f3,700,000 orau avei age of $2,125 each. It issues policiesupon the regular life tallies, twenty, fifteen,and ten year tables, endowment tables, &c ,at the lamest safe cash rates, the insuredthus getting his dividends in advanct.

The Episcopal ltegUUr, high authority,says of i t :

The National Life Insurance Companyof the United States, chartered by Con-gress, is an institution which has taken afirst rank among the insurance companiesof the country. The experiment of its pro-jectors In investing $1,000,000 us its joint-stock capital has proved a brilliant suc-cess. The company now sj;ows an ac-cumulation (in addition to the capital,) of$(507,000 in solid cash assets. Its incomeis wholly in cash, and a recent valuation ofits policies shows that the National liasavailable assets, aside from its capitalsufficient for a reserve fund. Its financialcondition (an all-important Item) is knownevery month by actual examination, amiits policies are valued twice a year. An-other of its distinctive features is, its prcmiums are definitely fixed at a reducedrate. By this plan the assured receives his"dividends" in advance, and has no linger-ing anxieties on the subject. Those whoare in mutual companies, some of whichare diminishing their dividends, and otherspaying not at all, will appreciate this featine. It offers no opportunity for misrep-resentation on the part of seductive solic.t-ors, and the insure'! knows beyond a peradventure just what he has to pay and justwhat he will get. In conclusion we maysay that the high character ot the officersof this company for business sagacity andhonesty justifies the confidence reposed inthem by their large body o( patrons.

We commend Life Insurance to all whoare not as certain as they are that deathis on their track, that without it they willleave a liberal provision lor their families—a loved wife and helpless young children ,aud to all to whom we commend Life In-surance we advise an examination of thoclaims of the National.

"With tbe new year tlie Company extends its protection to itsrons by issuing a more liberal policy than heretofore, containing fewer re-strictions on occupation, residence and travel, which is designed to m«:the demands of the times—Americans being proverbially a traveling peo-ple. The insured are by its policies perm it tea to travel or reside in ujpart of the world within the Temperate Zones, without the troublesnecessity of procuring a permit, or the imposition of an extra charge.-No restrictions are imposed upo:i occupation*, except upon the few whieiare recognized as specially hazardous.

The new Special NON-FORFEITING features just adopted will still ramincrease the well known popularity of the NATIONAL. It is a modificatifflof the Massachusetts Law, but shorn of its disadvantages. A few a®ple6 will show the difference between the Massachusetts non-forfeiture!»»and the Flan adopted by this Company.

By the Massachusetts Law a pol:cy, issued at age 45, premiums for liftafter 5 annual payments, will remain in force 4 years and 306 days atethe payments cease; but the unpxid premiums with interest atif*cent, are permitted to be deducted from the p<>licy if it becomes a claimbefore the expiration of the Term Insurance.

By the Special non-forfeiting plan of the NATIONAL, the same kindipolicy at saint ago, after 5 annual payments, would be exchanged fo['paid up Term Polky extending i years and 73 days ; and should tbe;:sured die before the expiration of that time, the fuU amount of the p ^would be paid.

In the case of a ten annual payment Ordinary Life policy, issued at if40, after 5 annual payments the Massachusetts Law gives Term Insurr"for nearly 14 J years—subject to deductions of unpaid premiums as b<stated.

Suppose the insared dies just before the Term Insurance expires;premiums, $01.68 (on $1,000) at 6 per cent. int. for 5 years (to the end;the ten years) and interest continued till the fourteen years expire, *(;amount to $560.40, which, deducted from the amount of the policy*'leave $439.CO actual insurance.

The same kind of policy, in the NATIONAL, at the same age, and « ^only $46 45 per $1000 for the ten years, after 5 annual payments, win*be exchanged for a paid up Term Policy, for the full amount of the oWinal policy, extending nearly 12 years.

The same Special non-forfeiting features applied to Endowmentance, results still more in favor of the policies issued by the NATI(See examples of the workings of this plan as applied to Endowmentthe Company's Rate Circular.)

The foregoing illustrations are based upon cash premiums—theurns in the NATIONAL are always cash ; most of the Massachusettspanies allow a choice of all cash or part note or loan. Had the wtions been calculated upon the loan plan (varying from 30 per cent-t°1per cent note) the result would have still further favored the all-cash,»*participating rates of tho Stock Plan of insurance as practiced byNATIONAL ; the outstanding notes, with interest, in addition to the unppremiums being deducted from the amount of the policy.

In addition to this Special non-forfeitinar plan, the NATIONAL stilltains its former plan of non-forfeiture of giving paid-up policies for F.portionate amounts of the original policies. The insurer must elect a^time of making his application, upon which plan of non-forfeiture b®have his policy written. The choice cannot be made at tho time 01render or change.

The Medical student* turned out enmasse yesterday to escort Prof. CROSBY tothe depot. Headed by the Zouave Bandthey midc a fine appearance.

Saline were responsible for the expresseMntlmeutB of L., and It is as much in just'llcation of the people of Saline who seeineito appreciate the ycrong men and treatecthem kindly, as for the young men's sakwe would have the matter understood as ishould be.

The Y. M. R. U. Ass. gave an entertaininent iu Ypsilauti Friday evening, Dec. 30for the benefit of the Heading Uoom. Thaudience was drawn from the respectablepeople of Ypsilanti, and the eutertainnie."twas well received by them. The entertainment was'-eprateci the next evening, andthe hall was as full again as on the firstevening Seme ol the Saline people wished Io have it repeated In Saline. Theyoung people according); went Dp thereand gave the entertainment for the benefitof the "Ladies' Piano Fund." The peopleol Saline were to share the proceeds withthe young men for the benefit of the Y. M1{. R. Ass. The Piano Fund receivedover thirly^dollars, the Y. M. H It. Ass.netted ten dollars, and had not the youngmen paid their own livery bills it wouldhave received nothing.

The yotiiif; people who took part In theentertainment were from our most respect-able families, nnd belong to the YpsilantiAmateur Dramatic Club.

We arc unwilling to accuse the people ofSaline of being In sympathy with L. iu thismatter,1;'"'! \vl arc willing to believe thatthe dissatisfaction of L. arose fron> his in-ability to appreciate the entertainment. Heprobably understands nothing about dram-atic performances, and ignorance, notmalice, miy have given rise to his veryaucourteuua letter.

Yours respectfully,DAN. R. Sifir.u.

None -The communication from Saline came froma respectable and resjionsible person, and by a well-known citizen, who stated fioine things which led us tothink the complaints not groundless. That's all weknow about it.—ED. AEOUS.

We regret t'o bear that GKOKUB S.FREER, of Lima, one of the most prominentcitizens of that town, and for several yearsits Supervisor, died on Wednesday of lastweek. Mr. FREER, while putting a cowinto his bnrn was thrown or crowdedagainst a rick of hay or straw, and had arib broken. Inflammation resulted causingdeath. The deceased was 42 years old, andthe youngest of six brothers. A large circleof acquaintance, extending throughout thecounty, sympathize with his bereavedfamily.

It will, therefore, bebtst to adopt tbe plan of deep cultivation, but to kci-p the manure und vegeta-ble matter fis near the surface as possible. There « always some loss byevaporation, but much le*s tlrui by in-filtration. Hut it should be a leadingidea with farmers to be close observer?of such na'ural operations, in the grow hof eiontarje, us and cultivated vegeta-tion, and accommodate tluir practice a >to imitate nature as nearly as possible.— Cor Journal of the I'arm.

Hcallb from Good Living:.As a natiou we don't wont any loen t»

Rather, wo want all the varietythat can bo gathered, from tbe salmonof Vancouver and the deers' tongues ofAlai'kn to the wine of San Dolores, thef*t herds of Texus, aid Ihi pecan nutsof the Gulf, [fa, litt of the resourcesof the continent for supplies were tnudew« should ail grow irnpa;ieut cf ourpresent meager provisions. To thinkwell and wi h vivacity, to work surelyand r.iifily, we neod a diet aa varied andpleasing as the country can furnish. Ifwa eat Southdown mutton and Dovoubeef, we will think nnd work mutton•t;d beef in return. If we taste piquantmeat and epiced ragouts, the blood willfly fa tor and ideas wi 1 throng thebrtiLn.

There was philosophy in tbe sayfog ofNinon do 1'KIIUIOK, that her soup intoxi-oated her; for. as the French make it, itU the most stiniula'insir, form of i o i ishm«Bt, the essence of food ndapted toprore the essence of thought iu thobrain imtaxed with the labor of digestion. If the Yankee is brought up ondried fish and s.-ilt meat, his compositionwill bo lough and lastiug, but lack tine/flavors ; good for a long war, or pioneerJDg and framing new States, but not•killful in diplomacy, nor discriminatingin »rt.

Th« country needs more cooks thaneither po'itioians or divines to-day, forstatesmen have the water brash andtheologians tbe dyspepgia for the want oftulinury ove'sight.— Chicago Tribune

The Causes of Dyspepsia.Merita! anxiety and pecuniary embar-

rassments, such as loss of property byfire, by failure iu business, or by baddebts, und also domestic troubles, disap-pointed affections, and the loss, or thetreachery, of friends, will frequently•nuse dysp'psiu ; too close and too activeintoilec ual labor in also a frequent cause.Editor?, »u'hors, and literary person*often engender dyspepsia in this way.

Much brain lubor requires much bloodat the brain, and an ever-working in-tellect UBOS up so much of both bloodand nervous force that there is notenough remaining lo do the work of di-gestion.

On the other band, dernngod diges-tion is sometimes produced by too littleexercise of the braio. Persons are fre-quently met with who have been in ac-tive business life and, having accuniulatcd enough to satisfy their ambition,have retired from business. Now although the brains and bodies retire fromactive life, yet the poor stomachs veryofteu have their tasks increased. If aman has been for a long time accustomedl» eating heartily and working hard,•ither with body or brain, be bad betternnt relax his working hubits without atthe same time huv>ng a correspondingrelaxatioo in bia habit of eating. " Hewho will not work neither shall he eat,"» n o t only a Bible injunction, but a lawof tbe human constitution, the disobedi-ence of which is often attended with suchderangement i f digestion, and otherbodily infirmities, «.i to render eitherproreity or life of but little value.—Dr.Altller on Dytpepua.

Acute Indigestion.Dr. Chamber, a celebrated physician

of Loijdun, advocates the followingtreatment: Give the stomach completere«t, administering only liquid food;•weak beef tua i« a good diet. Rest thelimbs-, to secure rost of the abdomen.Avoid alcoholic drinks; use poultioesand fomentations to the epigastrium (theupper part of the ubodomcu), to relievethe pain. Use emetics only when ne-cessity becomes absolute, and then mus-tard and warm water are the beet.Mild purgatives er« required when thedisease term:Dutcs, as it naturally does,in diarrhoea.

JarkMonvUlc, IlihtMiiia, Qreen Core, and many uihcrplscesln various paris of Florida can bo ssiely recom-mended to consumptives in winter. My reasons for say-ing so are, that patients are less liable to lake c M i In rethan where there Is a less even temperature; and It innot nee weary to say, that, whero n consumptive personetjuiM's himself to frequent c<»]d«, bt- 1* certain to dloshortly: therefore mv advice is. K° 'well down Into theBute, uutof the reaeh of prcvailinn en-a winds and fops.Jacksonville, or almost any other of the loeulities 1 faaVonamed, will benefit those who are troutried with u torpltillTer,a disordered stomach, deranged bowels, aorc throat,or cough; but. for those wliu&e IUIIK* ire dlocased, a luor*southern point fs earnestly recommended.

For fifteen yeans prior to 1869, I was professionally inSow York, Boston, Baltimore, and rinladelphia everyweek, whero I saw ami examined on an average 11 vohundred patients a week. A practice no extensive, em-bracing every possible phase of lunj< disease, has enabledmo to understand the disease fully; ami bence my cautionInrc-Kard to taking cold. A person may take vastqoastl-ties of " Sch*nek's rulmonic Syrup, Seaweed ToniO, andilandrako i'llls," and yet die 11 ho dyes not avoid takintfcold.

In Florida, nearly overybody is u*lnc Schenck'sMnn-flrako I'IIIB; for tho climate Is more likely to prudncobilious habits than more northern latitudes. I l l s a well-established fact, that natives of Florida rarely die Of con-sumption, especially those of the BOH them pan. On theother hand, in New England, one-third at least of thopopulation die of this terrible disease. In tho Jh.iiikStates, it does not prevail so largely; still there are manythousands of cases there. What a vast percentage oflife would be. saved If consumptive* TVCIV ns easily alarm-9& In regard to taking fresh colds as they are about sear-let fever, emall-poxrstc.

My advice to persona whose lungs arc aflcott-d, evenfclit'htlv. is to lav in a stock of Schenek's Pnlmonlc Syrup,Scnenck's Seaweed Tonlc.andSchonck'sMandrakerilis,and goto Florida. I recommend these jwrtieuirir medi-cines, because I am thoroughly acquainted with theiraction. I know, that, whore they are used In strict ae-cordance with my directions, they will do Uie work thatlsruqtiired. This accomi.-li-hcd. nature will do the rent.The pliyslclnn who prescribes i<r c->)il, couth, vr nightsweats, and thenadvisos the patient to walk »irrlde cuteveryday, will be sure tu have a corpse on his handsbefore long*

A Coolie Tlntlov.Tue Chfna correspondent of tho New

York Times gives the particulars of flmutiny by oooiies on the Freuoh shipNouvello Penelope, which clearod fromMaono with 350 coolie ou board.Soareely had the bhip got out upon thebroad ocean ere the coolies arose, killedthe captain and a portion of the ore«v, afew oDly escaping to tell the tule. Thecoolies navigated the ship into the har-bor- of TienpaU. The French consul atCanton hug started for Ticnpak with aGoit»er»e gunboat, with a view of recap-turing the vu-nel and reuouiog the sur-Tivoro of the crew. The coolie trade,it seems, is flourishing with as great avigor ns ever. It is a pity that thetrealy powers do not combine to pre-»««t the Portuguese from continuingtha traffic.

There is a man in Decorah, Iowa, sopenurious that when shelling corn a ker-nel flew into a wood-pile and he moved•even oordn of wood to find it.

A neighbor standing near dropped akernel near where the searcher was look-ing, but when he found it he said:

In fact, they are excellent in all caseswhen* a purgative medicine is required, i f you havopartaken too freely of firult, and dlarrliu.1;* ensues, adosoufthc Mandrakes will cure you.
