While l y ing the celebrated sewing-machine case efore Judge oodhurv, 1 heard him re uest a friend to go to the Athemeniu and et him a volume of a set published by harnbers. The article he wanted wuter is completed.’’ He drew himself up o his full height, and laying his hand on civ shoulder, he said: “.Sir.--, as Hive, lot a word of that eulogy is w ritten."

He was very careful of the wordings of hi- motions before the higher ■ourts. His phraseology was always pe :uliar.

Our national del it is undergoing reduc ion in other ways besides those indicated n the nionthlv debt statements of the Sec •etary of the. Treasury. The various forms >f paper money issued by the government n the process of circulation are worn out, o>t, burned or destroyed in other ways, ■o that a very considerable percentage of hem will nev er lie redeemed. Of the old loslal currency, the first issue of paper noney, in denominations less than one lollar, more than four millions and a half lave never been presented for payment, md it is estimated that at least one half of his amount never will be. Of the second ssue, three and a half millions are out standing, and not less than a third of this s supposed to have been destroyed. Ot he third scrit s, nearly seventei n millions ire yet unredeemed, and about a fourth of his. probably with it. Altogether, more ban seven and a hail millions of fractional .iirreney have disappeared, and to the gov ernment are tlie same as paid. More than eleven millions of the demand votes issued under the acts of July, lMil. ind February, ISO:.', are standing upon the books of tile treasury, and not less than aalf of this amount,’it is estimated, had 'cell lost bv tire or shipwreck, or other iisaster. In the same way the legal tender lotes of the early issues which have been u (in itiation lor seven years or more, have tillered so that live millions or more of hem will never be presented for rcdcmp ion. In addition to all tluse there are nore than one hundred thousand dollars it the funded debt of the vv ars of the revo utiou and of 1812, which are still comput ed as a part of the national debt, although not a dollar of it lias beeu presented for payment for many years. The process of Jestruetion >lill goes on. and the treasury s relieved by it some millions annually.— Worcester Spy. 4I.L FLESH IS (iti.tSS. A man named Andrew Hupp came into own with a load of hay. Hu desired to ■vhat an unlucky transaction for llupp! How unfortunate it was that just at that lime there were several persons standing •lose by, naturally looking toward the hav, md, still more unfortunate, that, while limy were thus looking, the load of bay should insist on upsetting, llut it did, md, lo and behold! from the midst there if tumbled a female form of the partuer if the joys attu sorrows of said Andrew llupp. Yes, there was the veritable Mrs. llupp, iu all her pristine majesty and love liness but, in less time than it takes to say "Jo Mowers,” she dodged behind a lumber pile, thinHag perhaps, that her little episode had not been seen by any body. The hay v. as reloaded, taken to its destination, and llupp returned to get his ■(•ale certificate. It was handed over to iiim with 17 j pounds added to the tale, at which he never muttered a single Wold of objection.—Lansing (Inca) Mirror,

The Hath limes •ays the largest amount of ice yet taken out ia by B. 8- Wright of Boston, whose opera tions are at Kiclimond. He has cut already 19,000 tons. On Monday morning, 14th inst., the dwell ing house, stable and out-buildings belonging to L. Merrill of Caribou, were destroyed bi fire. Thu loss is estimated at not less than threo thousand dollars, upon which, we are sorry to learn, there was no insurance. By this uiiaforiuue Mr. Merrill, an industrious and worthy citizen, is left penniless to begin anew the battle of life. A road has been made across the ice-jam at Hallow ell, by the citizens of Chelsea, who wished to go town. The road is emphatically a higkxtty—being at least ten feet above or- dinary low water. The damage to the stock of dry goods in the store of Messrs. E. J. Uersey A Co., by the great inundation at Hai lowell, amounts to nearly 81000. The pro prietors are now selling the damaged goods by auction, and doubtless great bargains can be ■eeured by bidders. Michael Leary of Vassalboro’, has been charged with stealing a watch, on the 17th of January last, from Isaac Jenkins, jeweller, of Vaasalboro'. Ho was arrested the other day ia Dover, N. II., and the watch recovered. On Tuesday an examination was had beforo Judge True in this city, Leary was adjudged guilty and ordered to recognize in the sum of 8900 for his appearance at the March term of the Supreme Judicial Court. Ho obtained sureties. A correspondent in Vassalboro’ makes tlie j following inquiries which he desires answered through our columns: “Your mention of the quantity of roofing •late now being carried into market over the Piscataquis 11. 11. leads me to inquire, how the first cost of covering a roof with slate compares with that of best of cedar shingles. Will sonic one familiar with the subject give the desired information? Several parties in this vicinity are desirous of knowing the “figures,” and if this information can be had t through the columns of the Journal, wc shall receive it with favor and be very thankful.” A correspondent write* to us from Thonias ton that in looking over the statistics of that town “I find we have one hundred and fifty four widows to help make up our little com munity of about a«00 inhabitants. Many of them are amongst our largest property holders and tome of them own and occupy the most j expensive private residences in the place. At a recent meeting of the stockholders of the old Thomaston Hank, a majority of the shares J were represented by women, and in the choice of officers their vote elected the entire txiard of Directors. Who can say that women have no rights that are respected The field of ice has extended to the dam, form ing a complete but uneven mass. A few more cold night* will ensure a safe passage to heavy teams across the lrcc bridge. Tlw fall of snow on Monday lias given the ice and ruins of the railroad bridge and buildings embedded in it an appearance not unlike that of looking at a pictnre through the medium of a stereoscope. Wc understand tliat the debris ol the railroad bridge will soon be brought on shore, as there is much valuable lumber uud iron in the ruins which may be made available in ths opera tions of the railroad company. The water has gradually subsided uhtil yesterday, when from some cause it rose, by measurement in this city, some three inches. If the cold weather continues no further damage need be appre hended from the mass of iee. It would be well for our citizens, however, to be on their guard and prepared for whatever may come. A violent rain would give a repetition of the disaster of Sunday last. A wise man will forsee the danger and if he cannot flee from it, pfepare to meet it. Care should lie taken to make more secure buildings exposed to freshets. The cellars of stores on the river side of Water atect should be kept clear of everything that may be injured by water. We learn from tht* Muchias Union that par ties from Boston have purchased the “Farns worth Mountains” so called, in Jonesboro; also are negotiating for the right of way for a road and land and flats for wharf prn ilcges, at tidewaters, with the view of cutting and ship ping granite to the city markets. The above Mountain is made of granite. Quantities of it shipped last season was pronounced the best ever used in Boston. The Union is glad that there is a prospect of those granite built hills being made to contribute to labor and trade. The Bangor Whig says Messrs. Wm. Swazey and J. 1*. Ames of Bueksport, have taken a contract from parties West to get from Great l’ond 5000 tons of ice, more or less. They are preparing by building ice-houses at the Fond and on Swaaey’s wharf, Buck-port, where it will be stored until it can be shipped. A correspondent of the Freequc Isle Sun rise says that in townships No’s. 7 8, lhtnged, •‘are inexhaustibly and easy working marbles quarries," and that in connection with the ex-1 tensive working of these quarries, good lime could be made by the 10,000 casks for50 cents per cask, to go from thence wherever its de mands would carry it.

In haste yours. (Signed) Hamilton Fish. To Hon. N. P. Banks. Mr. Banks addressed the Housu on this subject. He said, “Mr. Speaker—Although Mr. Burlingame hnd rendered great services to this country he was not officially connected with this govern- 1 nu nt at the time of his death. It is not prop er, therefore, to interrupt the proceedings of this House, at tiiis time, by anything more than a statement of this sad occurrence. Vet j I crave the indulgence of this House to say that a fitting and proper opportunity will he presented in regular course of business to ex- press our appreciation of his character and great service. He wished to be remembered in connection with these services. I prom- iscd him at the last interview that I had with him that his name should not be forgotten. His mediation between the great ancient em pire of the East and the civilized nations of the West, is one of the grandest services which any man in modern time lias performed. That service Mr. Burlingame had carried nearly to its complete success.” Messrs. Geo. E. Harris, J. J,. Morphia, j Geo. K. W. McKee and W. L. Pierce, mem- bars elect from Mississippi, appeared and took the oath of office. Mr. Strong offered a resolution instructing tile Committee of Commerce to inquire into the expediency of improving the Connecticut river as recommended in the report of Col. Houston. Adopted.

Death of Minister Burlingame. Boston, Feb. 23. Boston evening papers publish eloquent obituary notices of the late Anson Burlin game. The despatch announcing his death was from F.dward Burlingame, eldest son of the deceased, and was addressed to Hon. Isaac Livermore, father of Mrs. Burlingame, i but gave no details regarding the sad event. Mr. and Mrs. Burlingame lelt Boston Feb. 5. for St. Petersburg. By order of the Mayor of Cambridge, the flage on public buildings in that city were placed at half mast on tho announcement of Burlingame's death. Philadelphia, Feh. 23. The evening papers published elaborate obituaries of Mr. Burlingame, and there is a sincere feeling of regret at his sudden de mise. Havana News. Havana. Feb. 23. The Captain General authorises the follow ing statement in the official Journal: Information lias come into the hands of the government confirming the suspicions which luive long been entertained. It is known that agents of the Laberantes or Cubans who are not fighting in the field, but are in other ways working against Spain, have ordered their men to join volunteer battillions here and under cover of the uniform to perpetrate a scries of assassinations on foreigners with the object of embroiling tile government with foreign powers. The assassination of Greenwould was part of programme. The governenment expects loyal volunteers to aid it in exposing all traitors of this class. Act ing Consul General Hall received two weeks ago an anonymous letter warning him that he was in danger of assassination. He noti fied the Captain General of the circumstances and paid no further attention to it. On the fulluwing day three natives of Havana who w ere suspected of connection with the pro posed assassination, left suddenly for New Orleans, Arrost of a Bogus Advertiser. Hartford. Feb. 23(1.
