During the snow-storm on Wednesday night, Monsieur Alfred Palen, a Professor of French, who had recently es yo in natypogaer en Sing for the purpose of spending t lidays, salted forth from the Girard House, where ut up, for the purpose of seeing the sights. j ret a pa:sed up Chambers street to Broad- way, and in the course of his perambulations was addressed by rather a good looking mu- latto girl, who gave her name as Susanna An- thony. Monsieur was unable to speak Eng- lish, but this misfortane was remedied by the dark-eyed Susanna speaking his native lan- guage quite fluently. She appeared to mani- fest a great interest in his behalf, and was not longin making his acquaintance. Monsieur, being comparatively a stranger in the city, felt much pleased with bis new acquaintance, and, regardless of the storm, they continued their walk up Broadway. Susanna, having won the confidence of Monsieur, invited him to accompany her to her residence, in the rear of No. 27 Leonard street. Monsieur was too happy, and they at once wended their way to her house, upon reaching which she conducted him to her room Here the: atted and drank each other's bealths, and enjoyed them- selves most amazingly. While buzily engaged conversing, Adelia Oatfield, another colored woman, who bad secreted herself in a little closet adjoining. slip quietly into the room and took from Monsieur’s coat-pocket his wal- let, containing $46—two $20 gold pieces, and the balance ($6) in small bills. In afew mo- ments thereafter there was a terrible knock at the room door when Susanna pilednscnien | trembling violently, and ejaculated, “0, my God, my husband.’ From the tremendous th ning on the dor the Frenchman made up his m that the outsider wanted to get in, and bade Susanna turn the key. The door was violently thrust open and a blind man named James Oatfield entered in a towering Tage, swearing that he would have the life of the sed: his wife—the robber of bis peace and happiness—the destroyer of his home and all that was r to him on earth. Then a scene ensued; Susanna dropped upon her knees and sought the pardon of her pre- tended busband, but she was violently thrust aside, and Oatfield still insisted upon wreaking Vengeance upon the Frenchman. Monsieur knew not what to say, and turned to Susanna for an explanation, but she answered with sobs of an alarming convulsive nature. Monsieur. in his flight, fled the house, nor did he slacken his until he reached his quarters at the Girard House. Having got over his fright, Monsieur went out, and meeting with Officers Gale and Bulmer of the Fifth Precinet, made known to them his troubles. They accompa- nied him to the house, and upon his identifiea- tion of-Oatfield and bis wife, and the girl An- thony, took them into custody and locked them up in the station-house for the remainder of the night. The officers then returned to the house in Leonard street, and upon searching the premises found in a slop-pail the two $20 gold pieces tied up in arag. The remainder of the —- ceuld not befound. Yesterday morn- i ustice Osborn committed the accused to P for trial. A few weeks ago the same parties were ap- prebended for practicing a similar game upon an Englishman, but be being an unwilling wit- — accused were discharged — Neto York reoune. Tue Sovurm Caroitna LeGisuature com- PARSD WiTu THe Lecistatcre or New York. The Legislature, which is now sitting here,pre- sents some striking contrasts with the a- ture of the State of New York. Incredible as it may seem to the Weed, Matteson, and other lobby men, there is a State Legislature meet- ing daily in this city, without a “third house,”’ or a single lobby-man within the boundaries of the capital. Nay, more: a United States sen- ator is about to be elected, and not + wire pull- ed to influence votes—not a single lo..z nose is poked into the ear of senator or representative to win bim over to “our candidate.” Tbe manner of conducting the business of the houses here differs materially from the method in New York. The presidents of the two bod re seen dressed in purple gowns, lived and fringed with velvet of the samecolor. aod with kid gloves on their hands, while the clerks wear flowing silk robes,after the fashion of Eaglish barristers. The members observe bat little order, walking about and conversing while business ia going on, and only seated and silent from courtesy during a debate The fashion, too, of wearing the bat during the ses- Bio! ers only are required to be uncovered es the house: a rowdyish appearance, very similar to our legislative halls during a recess. The presiding officers of both houses ere dig- nified and able men. and conduct the business, in the midst of the confusion, promptly and correctly. Very rarely, indsed, is a point of order raised; and should a recent Jefferson Manual jentative from Qu suddenly in the South Carolina a would be caged and shown as a curiosity. There are in the House of Representatives three reporters, and in the Senate one. But this is accounted for by thie fact that no lobby- ing is done on the floor, and no stationery or- ders are allowed. Both members and report- ers are furnished with such articles of station- ery as are oc for use in the chamber,and thatisall. Another feature of the distincticn between this Legislature and our own is the fact that every member here pays full fare for all bis railroad riding. No such thing as a “free pass’’ to a representative was ever heard ©” in the State. The moral of all this is, that the South Caro- linians legislate for the State instead of for in- divid waste no time over needless matters; lay no pipe for log-rotling; steal nothing, either from the State or from individuals who desire legislation; meet, do up their business and fF home, paying their board and wasbing bills and their fares.—Columbia Correspondent N. Y. Herald. A Boston “Mong” Pxzacuen.—We copy the fullowing from the Boston correspondence of the Worcester Spy : “ Mr. Kalloch, oF Tremont Temple and East Cambridge memory, spoke, on Sunday, upon the certainty of the development of guilt in Sianers—crimioal guilt, more especially. This man’s eloquence has been over-estimated; his subject in this ease was badly chosen; his voice is bard and harsh, although strong; his manner ‘$ not siacere, and his arguments are not well based or strongly constructed; his tone is not generally pleasant, and his inflection is often very bad a to the extent of not letting his at the close of s sentence or the cccurrence of = period. He does not pray, as the usual castom, just previous to the ser- mon, and as Iam informed, nut at al/; but the contribution box is cireulated among the audience next before the discourse, in place of Prayer. socustowary in at teast mos? other churches His audience was a large one, bat not an intellectual or a cultivated one—in- deed, it was not apparently of average intelli- gence and mental ability. He is pot a man calculated to please an assembl: of culti- vated minds. Ilis want of sincerity, both in Voice and general a; pearance, and his compar- @llve coarseness sal prscoeed of style, seem to greatly unfit him for the pulpit, as well as for baa aneicial influence upon either mind or Greece, its PoruLation, 4&c.—According brdlireene~ Teport of the Minister of Finance of the kingdom of Greece, the population of that country has increased since 1834 from 600,000 to 1.045.000.

Xn. a a The Coos Republican narrates the successful termination of an enterprise several times at- tempted, but never before aceompl: |, Win: the ascent of Mount Wasbin; winter. Later than the early part of ber, the ascent of any of the White Mountain range is attended with danger, and several who have made the attempt have lost their lives. On the 7th ult., however, two individuals sur- mounted the perils of the ascent, and entered the Tip Top and Summit Houses. The title to these Duildeoge has been for some time in liti- gation, and recently Samuel F. Spaulding, of Lancaster, obtained an execution, which he was anxious to levy immediately. Securing the services of Deputy Sheriff Lucius Harts- horn and B. F. Osgood, an experienced guide, the three left the Glen House, at 7 a. m., on the 7th ult. For the first mile the snow was about one foot in depth, increasing to two and a half and three feet as they approached the Ledge At this point Mr Spaulding left the party, and returned for horses and provisions for the adventurers on their return trip. Meesrs. Hartshorn and Osgood pressed on with all speed, over ground covered with an incrustation ef snow and ice, which occasion- ally afforded good footing, but often breaking, and precipitating them on the rocks beseath. The party suffered much from thirst, but water was found only at the Ledge. The air was milder than had been expected, and the sun shone in aclearsky. Of the scene at the sum- mit, and the return, the Republican says: “Arrived at the summit, the view is repre- sented as having been sublime beyond the power of description. Mr. Osgood averring that in his many trips on to the mountain, he never beheld so extended, and yet so grand and terrific view as burst upon them on that lonely height. Measures were immediately taken to enter houses, which, as they were covered with snow, was alabor of time. Un- able to obtain ingress at the doors, they forced their way through the windows, on which the frost had formed a foot and one-half in thick- ness. The walls and all the furniture were draped with some four inches of frost, and the air was biting in the extre: “ It was a dark tomb and a lamp was neces- sary in this snow-cave to enable the party to distinguish the surrounding objects. be delay was dangerous in the extreme, and having per- fected their legal duty, the two prepared to re- turn. Upon emerging from their houses, they beheld to the south west a cloud rapidly in- creasing in volume, and rolling on toward them. When first seen, it was small in mag- nitude, but it ine: din size with alarming velocity, soon spreading over the entire South. They knew it was a frost cloud, and that to be caught in its folds would probably be fatal, and they hastened to avoid it. They had just entered the woods at the base of the ledge, when it came upon them. So icy and pene- trating was its breath, that to have encoun- tered its blinding, freezing power on the un- protected height, would have been to perish with it asa pall to coverthem. The party reached the Glen in safety, and were heartily welcomed by their friends, who, well knowing the danger attending this never-before accom- plished feat, awaited them with much anxiety.” —————_-2+e-____ The Trade in Eunuchs. The Jews have been unjustly associated with the trade in eunuchs in the East. But the per- petrators of this horrid mutilation are Chris- tian Copts; and as the subjects of their cruelty sell for from $75 to $200 apiece, they carry on a lucrative business in Egypt. The employ- ment of eunuchs by eastern mona: dates from a remote ren, ae They were nume- rous in the Eastern Empire before its fall, the eunuch Narases having been one of the best generals of the Greeks. While in Constantinople, we learned some curious facts relative to eunuchs, which were confirmed during our visit to Egypt. The trade is not so active agin former times. About three hundred eunuchs are annually furnished in Egypt, some of whom come to occupy im- porjant posts in the Turkish and Egyptian Government. The Kislar Aga of the Sultan, forexample, is the third man in the Ottoman Empire, aving charge, not only of the harem of Abdul Medjid, but being the director of the revenues of the imperial mosques and the in- comes derived from Mecea and Medina. From a singular custom of the Ottoman Court, a pri vate harem is kept within the walls of the se- vs wg for the Kislar Aga, as well asone for the chief of the white eunuohs. Syout and Gireh, far up the Nile, are the only places in Egypt where eunuchs are made for the Egyptian and Turkish markets. The white subjects are Circassian or Georgian boys; the black, Abyssinians or Nubians, from six to nine years of age, the latter being brought by caravans from Sumar and Darfour. The vil- lage of nah (pried near Syout, is the great the trade. {the mutilation, far more terrible than is usually supposed, is prac- ticed in the autumn, that season being re- arded as most favorable. The sufferer is aried for twenty-four hours up to his waist in the sand. Three out of every tour submitted to the operation perish. « wealthy Turkish Pacha, wishing to make Abdul M uable present, sent him a number of iful Circassian boys who had undergone the inflic- tion in Ezypt. The Sultan, a humane and ten- der-hearted man, could not repress his indig- nation at the act, and directed that it should never be attempted again. The cunuch can ordinarily be distinguished by his exterior physiognomy. He is usually plethoric, beardless, and has a feminine voice, while a sombre and irascible disposition natu- rally arises from the sense of degradation which he experiences. Some of them have a fondness for female seciety, and there are instances in which they marry.— Knickerbocker Magazine. ia se Ni doles oeerlei Woman's Ricuts ts tax Sovra.—It appears that there are strong-minded women in the South as well as in the North. Ina German Church in New Orleans, a difficulty of some kind arose, and a large part of the eongrega- tion refused to permit the pastor, Mr. Pressler, to preach. An injunction was procured, but he disregarded it, and on Sunday week pro- ceeded to the church. A number of the female members opposed his entrance, and how he fared when i persisted in his determination to enter the church, ia recorded by the Cres- cent as follows : “ The ladie-, it seems, were fixed for eontin- cies, and no sooner bad his reverence forced fis way into the church than they descended upon him like an avalanche, with cowhides and pepper and salt and flour and gypsum ; lathering bim mercilessly with the former art: cles, and powdering him all over with the ter. Thus beset, the preacher had but one ternative, and that was to fly from the eburch —an operation which he performed to the sat- isfaction of all. A policeman, hearing of the affzir, went to see Pressier, and asked if he wished to have anybody arrested ; but he de- clined making complaint against anybody. The richest part of the scene was, that whilst the laidies were cowhiding and flouring the preacher, their husbands and friends were i round as quiet and uncone ptian mummies.” According to the Chicago Journal a dishonest servant girl, who was in the habit of sporting immense hoops, was dis- eharged by her employer, who soon, missing articles, despatcbed an officer after the girl, who was arrested; and a woman was employed to search her, with the fullowing result: A bag of buckwheat, a quantity of flour, a small can of milk, several pounds of sugar, pack- age of tea, and a jug of molasses actually pinned to her petticoats, and hanging upon ber crino- line. A further search brought to light quantity of cakes concealed in her bosom. “« Piccolomini kisses ?’’ inquired a waiter of a fashionable hotel yesterday of a crusty Benedick be was about to serve with. dessert. “Of course she does,” was the answer, “if she’s like other women.” WASHINGTON, D.
