J ??L> iv EVENING STAR. Interesting about Cards. Some Old Mortality,'' or modern antiquary Bends us below quite an interesting and inpe nious history of the origin of -Cards''?those absorbing playthings of the innocent, aud dangerous tools of the designing: AJetsr*. Editors: Tho following rolating to cards, which I copy from an old manus?r*p' work entitled he Oracle of Human Destiny may be new and interesting to most of your readers. You may publish it or not, at your option "Cards were originally invented in Egypt: though the current opinion of the present day is, that they were invented aoout a century or two back, and first used tor the amusement of a young French Prince. That cards. how ever, are of the high origin above assert&i. if easily proved by their numbers, suites, aud characters, corresponding strictly with tiie astronomical signs and calculations of the au cient Egyptians, who aro acknowledged to j have been better acquainted with the motions I of the heavenly bodies, than any other nation that ever existed. But to the proof The colors are two, red and black, answer I ing to the two equinoxes The suites are four, answering to the four seasons. The emblems of these formerly were and still are in Spain, for the heart a cup which is emblematical of winter; for the spaai an acorn, the emblem of autumn fortheclul a trefoil, the emblem of summer; and for the diamond a ro^e, which is the emblem of sprin-*" The twelve court cards answer to tho twelve months, and these were formerly painted with the Bigns of the Zodiao. The fifty two cards, or whole pack, answer to the number of weeks in the year. The thirteen cards in each suite answer to the number of weeks in a lunar quarter. The aggregate of pips or spots, calculated in the following manner, amount to three bun dred and sixty-five, or tho number of days in 1 a >ear: The number in each suit is 55 Multiply by 4 suits 4?22l) 12 court cards, counting 10 for each card |2o The number of court cards j??

The Washington Monument.?The New i ork i ribune improves the occasion of our I ?einarks a day or two since on the existing I ukewartnness of the country with reference to I he continuation of the work on the Washing-1 on^Monument, to strike it a blow in tho back. I The editor holds that it is the duty of patriot- I sm to withhold the means of its completion I because, as he alleges, its plan is not in good I aste. This is his only?absolutely?his only I Pretence for such advice to the public. Now, I with all due respect for him, we have to say I hat he is the last man in creation who is en-1 itled to sit up for a critic in the fine arts. I lis aim has been for years to create the im-1 iression that his inind is above such trifles; I ltd to do this he has adopted the exceedingly I rulgar expedient of invariably exhibiting him-1 elf in public in an old greasy and seedy white I >vercoat, with the tail flopping around his I lircy boots, and dirty and greasy white bat I vorn clear of nap His tout* ensemble, as he I ihuffles or hobbies aleog, is that of a fallen I haker, half seas over, who has just got sober I snough to walk without again tumbling into I gutter. Pretty figure that, to criticise the ine ark! A man's taste is very generallyl nanifested in hi3 own style. This is a rule I arely failing to hold good aud it forms a I ;ood bar to the influence of his advice with I eference to the plan of the Monument. We I iave to add that further inquiry has satisfied I is that there exists no danger that the work I ?n the Monument will be abandoned, though I t is very certain that unles3 additional aid is eceived from some souree or other, it must I ag, so as to postpone its completion for many I Fears. We trust that there is patriotism I mough in the land to prevent even such a I :alamity from occurring.

The French jour nals wore commanded to say nothing about the matter. The Crusader (Father Gavazii) is stir ring up the Protestant community'' to make a "consolidated effon" at the next election :o overthrow the popish influence" in the United States.

The rejoicing in England and France has been suddenly cheoked by the announcement that tevastopol is not taken?that the de-truc tion of the Russian fleet is false?that the ex plosion of Fort Constantine is untrue?and that Omer Pasha's dispatch is a forgery. Sevastopol was being invested by the al lies, but as late as the 30th ultimo, had not fallen. The official Gazette extra, published the fol lowing from Lord Stratford de Radcliffe to Lord Clarendon Corstantimople, Sept. 30, 9, Evening.? The allied armies have established a basis of operations at Balaklava. On the morning of the 28th they were preparing to maroh with out delay upon Sevastopol. The Agamemnon and other vessels of war were at Balaklava, where they were disembarking the battering trains. It is stated that Mensohikoff is in the field with 20,000 men, daily expecting reinforce ments. The fortifications of Anapa were burnt by the Russian garrison, who were marching to the scene of action. The French Ambassador of Vienna had tel egraphed the Minister of Foreign affairs, un der date of the 4th instant. Intelligence was said to have been brought that Omer PaBha bad contradicted the exaggerations relative to the battle of Alma. The Austrian Consul at Odessa, telegraphed that the struggle commenced on the 25th, and continued. When the courier left on the 27th, the allies were on the road to Balbreok, ten miles from Sevastopol. Omer Pasha had or ders te join the army of the Crimea. LATER. The allies occupy Balaklava, and are in communication with the fleet, and command the approaches to Sevastopol, whioh is con sidered invested. It is doubtfully rumored that the second line of defenoe has been carried Generals Osten, Sac ken, and Luders, have entered the Crimea with forty battalions. At tho battle of Alma, 3,000 Russian prison era were taken. The RoBsiana were shut up in Sevastopol, and would be attacked by lea and land Ao otmnta ?aj that there was from four to eight Rujdan ship* in the harbor.

EVENING STAR. LOCAJ. INTELLIG^KCE. Tn Bonds*** or thi Administrator on Kos cirrto'* ?On the day before yesterday, we took occasion 10 mention thai those who were on the #4t.UQ0 bond of Coi. Bora ford, as administrator of Um estate of the late Gen. Kosciusko, had beeni e paid the several nnu they had been forced to make good by the decision of the great Kosciusko's e.-tate rasa, detrrtmaed by the Supreme Court not long since. We have since learned that the bondsmen on the original bond given by Colonel Bciufoid as Kosciusko's administrator. have not been so repaid I'oi the money they weie forced io pay in the same way. They are Messrs. Samuel Stotl and James Carrico, the first named having paid $U,00O, and the other a little more than that ?uui. It&o happened that Uiose on the $40,000 (second) bond took tin precaution to obtain collateral security on the prop erty of CoJ. Bomford, and they have been paid only through the prudent management of that propeity b> J. Q. H. Smith, Col. Womford's administrator. The depreciation of the Value of the Colonel's facto y property (in Georgetown) and the destruefcm ot hi* valuable mill by fire, together greatly IflS^ned ilic vaiae of the estate which he left. Had be lived a few year* longer, his well known eneigy and eapi til busmess qualities would have surely enabled jx to repay Messrs. Stott and Carrico, wtio are so h?>avy loser's by going on his origiual adnuii.-ua I ir's bond. Danesas or ihi Nioht.?Under this head we may notice, a* pertinent to the fact, that Mr. Win. O'Strtlivan, who bad his leg broken on Sixth street, the other night, will have to be removed to the In firmary, it is thought by his friends, so as to receive the necessary surgical attention to his injuries. The accideut did not occur from falling in a iewer, as reported, but was caused by falling over some g is pipe, carelessly left on the side-walk, which tripped fi.ui up in the dark, and thus produced this serious result. He was walking with a fiiend when he tell, and we understand that Captain Birch, oi tlie Aux iliary Guard, who is always on band, cameto his as sistance, and Willi the tnend procured a hack to lake him home. Mr. O'Siillivan is a hard-working, honest mechanic, supporting himself and sister by *-the sweat or his brow," ana thus this accident f. lis heavy upon him. The Corporation will no doubt answer for the injuries done by neglect of! their of ficers to have the laws vnlbrseu ui regard tu obstruc tions in the streets. The fact is, itiai with the bad light of the streets off the main avenue, the sewers left open, the obstructions on the pavements and streets, it is a wonder that more accidents do no oc c r. People will have to carry lamps at night, n something is not done to remedy the evil. Attempted Suicide.?A young man, nam;d J. Cuthbert, whose mother keeps a restaurant on Sev enth street near I, yvsterdav afternoon, between ti?? hours of 4 and 5 o'clock, attempted to commit st If slaughter. He was observed to be despondent and at the time named told his mother that he would go up and take a little sleep, and accordingly went up stairs into his room. About 9^ o'clock. Ins mother became apprehensive thai all w?s not right, and proceeded to his door, Which bring locked inside Had to be foiced open, and what was her horror at seeing her son Weltering in his blood on the floor. Urs. Dulumei and Eliiou were seni lor,and quickly attended to the wound, stopping the hemorrhage, but leaving him quite weak. When they entered tney found the blood gushing from the wound, and beside him lay a razor, the bandie tied up wi li a handkerchief, so as to give a firmer hoid, showing a deliberate intention to commit the act. The blJoti also flowed from his mouth, and altogether ibe un fortunate man presented a most shocking spectacle. This morning he was fast sinking, and it was feared that he could not survive. The cause of the ra?h act is credibly said to be the breaking j of Ins mother's business by the recent acts of the City Councils. Ths Circus.?A multitude of people tilled the large tent of the double circus company last night, and enjoyed a variety of entertainments, well done up." The introduction of ladies, M'lle Agnes,Mrs ?>nnoiui, and Mrs. Lakes m tlie grand entre had a hue effect, beginning tlie performances most suita bly. Th-i voltigeuruig, the hu sewoman, and the horsemanship were thrilling acts. Walur Aymer is a trump ou his bare-back uorse, but really it won d be hard to find such a monkey as Magiiton makes. He is as active as a cat, and cah do anything that a monkey can do. His feats on the pole, and the ex hibition of strength in hclding him aloft on the ple by Mon. La Thorn are astonishing. Bill Lake is a clown as is a clown, and, without going into partic ulars, we may well say this is a circus as is a circus. They perform this afternoon and evening, and then are off to other parts to lurnish entertainments for the people wherever they go. The Lrothers Glantz.?We learn that a requi sition has been issued by the Governor for Christian and Charles Henry Glantz, charged with the crime ol assaulting with intent to kill, Mr. E. W. Duvall, near Bladensburg. They are to be taken to Prince George county, Md., to be tried, but their counsel, E. C. Morgan, Esq., of this city, will apply to the court of that county lor a change of venue to St. Mary'3 county. Most probably the application will be granted, but it requires an affidavit by the accu.-ed to the effect that they cannot obtain justice in the county where ihe crime is alleged to have t?een com muted. Daniel Diejjs Esq., Mate aur anu-a half streets, one square roni Pennsylvania avenue, and we understand it is the intention of the builders to erect an edifice worthy of Uie name and the object. Bishop Simpson is io deliver the address on the occasion, and the ceremonies wi 1 be conducted by the Masonic order. Monday will be an interesting day to the good old Methodist Epis copalians of Washington. The respected Bishop Jajnesand other divines will lake part in the inter esting ceremonies. Centre Market.?The meat stalls,this morning, exhibited a One display of beef, mutton, and poik, ranging in prices from d to 12% cents per pound? for all of which there was a fair demand. Ducks at 37* cents and chickens at 25 cents each, found ready pnrchasers. Irish potatoes $1 50 per bushel; sweet do. 50 cents per peck. Eggs 25 cents per dozen, and butler ranged from 25 to 31 cents per pound. From the foregoing, it will be seen that pro visions of all kinds are somew hat lowerthan this day week, which we give as welcome news to house keepers. What's a Mam without a Hat.'?This is a per tinent question at all seasons, but particularly so now, when it is necess iry to rig up for the winter season. Uuite as pertinent is it as the question, "what's a House without a womau This being admitted, the next step is, "not to go over to the enemy," as John Uuincy Adams said, but go over io our friend Evans, 236 Pennsylvania Avenue, ana Kt one of his beautiful new style hats, saving a dol r in price by the operation. Take our advice. The Weather.?For a week past we have had regular autumnal weather. The seared leaves have nearly all fallen from the trees, the frost has nipped the flowers, the cool breezes call tfw winter clothing, aud stoves are brought into comfortable requisition. A little rain to lay the dust would be quite accepta ble, but we put it on record that such is tlie staf of tlie weal her in October of the year of our Lord, 1854. Washington and Alexandria Railroad.?W.. understand that James d. French, Esq., surveyor, is engaged in a preliminary examination of the route of the pioposed Washington and Alexandria rail road, and will soon complete his labors Mr. French has taken up his residence in this city, and will de vote his whole time to the important duty for which he has been selected. The railroad connection be tween this city ?nd Alexandria will be a link much needed between the North and South, and of vast interest to the two cities. The Sabbath.?To morrow we all rest from our labors, or should, and thereUrc it is proper to re member that we keep holy tlie Sabbath Day" as a divine lesson. Sir Mattiiew Hall beamdully enfor.es ths idea hi these appropriate lines: UA Sabbath well spent Brings a week of content, And health tor the toils of to-morrow: But a Sabb>th profaned, Whatsoe'er may be gamed, Is a certain forerunner of sorrow." St* d ben Death or a Hackjcan.?Last evening, a worthy hackinan named Cochran fell from his hack un Uie Avenue, and was taken up dead- Cause ap popiexy. His body was conveyed to his late resi 4ence on Seventh sueei north, fr>>in whence his funeral will take place. In tlie language of the in quests called by coroners he died by the visitation o* God," and in tlie language of tlie courts, may ?od have uiercy on his soul." Tu* A*'H ?r.?The amount contributed by the mitttary to the .Yttitonal Washington Monument, on the 17th iiut., was $319 29, not $313 70 as reported. Therf is more coming from some of ihe companies who contributed, and those who were not prepared to contribute on that day.

The material of which it is constructed consists of white oak and white and yellow pine. Messrs. Mott Ayre?, of the Chelsea Iron Works, have made the machinery for the operation of the dock. The largest vessel afloat, it is said, can be taken into the structure for repairs. The dock is estimated to be worth one hun dred and ninety thousand dollars. It is not yet decided where the doak will be station per manently.

The ladies of Union Female Benevolent Soeiet* have already commenced their winter's labors of mercy and charity.

V\ h le reading the report of the military paraiJe and review, which came off in ynur city, as eon tamed in the Star of yesterday and the day before we were led to wonder what had become of all the military spirit which had characterised the men of our city a few years ago, when we*had two tine companies ot infantry and one of horse. The idea of a city of nine thousand inhabitants, and not a soldier in it, sounds rather ridiculous, and we con fe?> we feel rather ashamed to niskc the tact known. Nearly all the lots which have been laid out in Oak Hill cemetery hare been disposed of, and still there is a demand for moie. Under the skillful ?an^?fBien* f elaroche, the engineer, and Mr. Blundon, the porter, this .-acred repository of the dead continues to be improved and beaatiried miring the summer the porter's lodge was consider ably enlarged.

EVENING STAR. THE LIBERTY POLE. Up wuh tbe tall mtw, let it be Raised by the loyal-hearted, higher Than old St. Peter*? eilded spire Ciowned with the cop of Liberty. There let the noble landmark stand, Unshaken by the storms of creed? ?Unstained while warring nations bleed, The glory of Ottr happy land. And we will 9tand erect and true, As freedom's staunch and towering mast, While adverse winds are sweeping past, Pointing to Heaven's bright arch or blue. As Moses lifted up the rodj t In the broad wilderness to heal" The Jew#; so for our country's weal We dedicate this staff to God. Let every freeman worship God, As conscience tells hiin 'tis best, No one daring to molest Or fright him with the oppressor's rod. A shout conies up from vale and crag, Brave hosts surround the stately tree, They cast their ballots for the free Defenders of their country's flag. Up with the banner of the free, And write in words of burning gold, On every striped and starry fold, God apetd the march of Liberty. py Jump oat of bed the moment yon hear the knock at the door.
