[From Washington Cor. of St. Louis Republican.) RD etd is that “it never rains but it pours. killing of Key seems to have crazed ity pates of several very romantic married en in this metropolis. A few days after the Sickles tragedy, a married Indy living in the southern part of the city, or what is known as the island, informed her liege lord that she had been pres insulted, the previous evening, by Mr. | - am acquaintance of the family. The incensed and outraged husband, with re- volver in hand, rushed to the office of the sup- posed offender and demanded satisfaction. ~Satisfaction for what?” asked the astonished Mr. ~- “Kor having insulted my wife, sir, last evening,”’ responded the excited individ. ual Pray, sir, w darescharge me with ever ng havi insulted your wife, by look, word, or ac- tion ?”" again inquired Mr. B - “The lady herself, sir, makes the charge,” promptly re- pane the husband. “With your permission, sir, would be pleased to face my accuser, gnd hear her make the charge in my presence,” mildly remaked the imperturbable Mr. B——. «You shall be gratified, sir; come, walk with me,” added the still exasperated husband, at the same time returning his six-shooter to his pocket. Bofore giving the closing scene, it may be well to inform the reader of the facts: On the ere- ning previous, Mr. B. had casually called at the house of a friend, and there found the lady in question, without an escort. At a late hour, she prepared to return home, and Mr. B. kind- ly tendered his services to see her safe to her door. The streets on the island are not highly improved, and on the night in question were very muddy. Atone — the walk was quite intercepted by a muddy hole. over which the Indy and gentleman wero compelled to pass A knight of old would probably hzve thrown down his mantle, over which the fair lady might have walked; but our hero having no such ap- pendage, proposed a spring, by which his com- panion, with tho assistance of his hand, cleared the mud at a single bound. Without further snnoyance they reached the lady's residence in safety The excited husband now ushered Mr. B. into his parlor. and rang for his insulted wife. who promptly reported herself. Mr. B., lvoking the lady full in the face, asked, ““ Madam, have lever by word, look, or deed offered you the slightest indignity or insult in my life?” A breathless pause followed. The lady, after some hesitation, Eheciagly answered, ‘I thought you pe pans imy hand slightly in helping me over the mud-hole last nig! The revolver dropped; and after a due I to Mr. B., the mortified husband tensed f is romantic *pouse and administered a rebuke, to avoid the witnessing of which, Mr. B. hastily left the house, and returned to his office, ruminating on the character of female women, with the sage conclusion that, at the present age of the world, it was not entirely safe to beau other men’s wives. Sraristics or Sprrirvatisa.—From statis- tics it appears that New York furnishes the largest number to the various circles, 350,000 being credifed to the Empire State ; Ohio has 100.000; and puritanie New England gives no lets than 100,000 votaries to the cozenage. The next most extensive tributaries to this social pitfall are: It: , 90,000 ; Michigan, 70.000: Wisconsin, 70,000; Indiana, 50,000: and Maine, 40,000. The two Carolinas give to *piritaalism not 7,000 victims between them ; Virginia has had only 5,000; Alabama loses 6.000; Florida 1,000; Georgia, 5,000; Oregon, Nebraska and Kansas, 1,000 each. Californi: with all its social derangements, has not many more spiritual gudgeons than New Hampshire or Vermont, and Texas not so many as the hnt- ter by 5.000. Arkansas has only 2,000; New Me 2.000; New Jersey, 5,000; Delaware, 2.000; and Khode Island offers 5.000 to the dod, The United States altogether, says the Spiritual Register, contains 1,250,000 persona who are professed dupes of this delusion. Going beyond the Union, but not off this con- tinent, all the South American States do not afford as many spiritual gulls as New Hamp- #hire —not by 5,000—the spiritualists claim ng only 15,000 from the whole of South America. Canada has 40,000, and the whole of the East- ern Continent, outside the States, gives about 600,000. The ‘‘ officials’ who minister to the delusion throughout America include 1,000 ‘“ public speakers’ and 40,000 -‘mediums.”” A list of ** reeognized”’ speakers and media gives 349 of one and 233 of the other. The speakers ap- arto be of two classes, normal and trance. York State supports 30 of the former and 2 of the latter, and Massachusetts 19 normal and no fewer than 46 trance speakers. Of the latter class, New York city seems to have but 3. NoSouthern State ts credited with either a normal or traace speaker. Of the “ recognized”’ media some are called Healing,” and some « Test.’ The State of New York has of the former 35, and of the Iatter 6; Massachusetts has of the former 31, and of the latter 24. The 4,000 spiritualists given to Virginia, though a small number in proportion to that of otber Siates, exist only in the imagination of the spiritual statistician. sw0e- Tae Best Sewina Macnixe.—Punch con- tains the following admirable description of an old fashioned sewing machine, which every Bachelor should possess : The very best sewing machine a man can haveisawife.

E woe A Miscarevarios.—Last Sabbath evening & gentleman of this town made arrangements ty vend the evening with a friend; bat, on goirg his wife iniste | upon his accompinyin her tochurch, and taking with them their chil a boy three years. Asa matter of course went, bat was much dissatisfied with the rangement; and while on hi< way was busy con- ceiving ways and mears tododge. Atlast he hit it. During the first prayer he would pinch the boy; the boy would squall; then. as a matter of course, ho would be obliged to take him Fome, and then he would be free the remainder of the evening. It worked to a charm, with one tri- fie exception. He pinched viciously, and the Tad bawled lastily, and his p mitor started out hastily, bat unfortunately just as he was leaving the pew, the infant shrieked, in a tone sufficiently load to beheard half way across the charch, * Mamms!

C., MONDAY, APRIL 4, 1859. Burrz_ at 4 Wepprxe.—Probably no man now living has caused more real, thorough, unmitigated fun and mischief than Signor Blitz, the magician and ventriloquist. He has made a peg, no doubt, to hang a good many hats on that were never worn; but we must believe stories like this, which the Phil- —— City item tells, of Blitz at a wed- ing: The other night our young friend, Walter Dinmore, the photographist, was married to the lovely and accom Fished Miss Fisher, of Camden, and Signor Blitz, being an old friend of the Dinmores, was invited to the ooh He did not reach the house until about 10 o'clock. After paying his respects to bride and groom he thok @ seat in the back parlor. Presently some one cried out, ‘* You're losing your hoop-skirt, Madame,’’ whereupon the greatest confusion ensued, all the ladies grasp- ing their skirts with a vigor which seemed to say, ‘loose or not, they shan’t come down!” “Let me out,”’ cried the strange voice, and then other veices hurriedly said, “Hands off, sir!’ “Miss, I love you!” “Oh, Augustus!’ “Your baby is erying at home, Madame!”’ il it, with Godfrey’s Cordial !’? «‘ Mur- “ Stand from under !”’ “ Look “Poison !"? «* What's the matter “Strychnine!” “ Arrest the “ Fire!’ These cries, in ap- parently different voices, followed each other in such — succession that for about five minutes there was the greatest consternation, until Walter Dinmore, knowing Blitz of old, pulled him out of the corner and set him to eating and drinking, so as to give him no op- réunity for the display of ventriloquism. On is way back, while crossing the river, Blits frightened the hands of the boat badly; in fact, one of them would have jumped into the river if he had not been shied sae it is, he declares the Old Boy was on board the boat that night. ———_ «ce, __— A Ricu Max’s Ortxtox or Weattu.—M. Sal- amanea, a rich banker of Madrid, a gentleman of taste, education, and liberality, once a week adinits bis friends to his house and table. To i says the London Specta- ists recently responded by inviting their host to one of the modest restau- rants of the Spanish capital. The invitation was accepted, and the dinner took place, the cost of the feast being eight reals, or Is 6da head. Instead of the basket of flowers usually placed on the table, stood a pyramid of books, surrounded by the busts of dalierea, Lope de Vega, Cervantes and Velasques. The dinner was more than modest, and the only apology we have for mentioning it at all, must be found in the moral of M. Salamaff®'s speech:—‘“Gen- tlemen,”’ said he, ‘about twenty-five years from this time the old and threadbare cassock of Sal- amanca, then a student in the University of Grenada, might be among the oldest and most worn out cassocks of his comrades. When my education was completed I proceeded to Mala- B: and made myself a journalist. Then the love af gold took possession of my soul, and it was at Madrid that I found the object of my adoration, but not without the loss of my juve- nile illusion. Believe me, gentlemen, the man who can satisfy all his wishes has no more en- joyment. Keep the way you have entered on, advise you. Rothechita seelebrity willcease on the day of his death. Immortality can be earned, but not bought. Here are before you the busts of men who have gloriously cultiva- ted liberal arts; their busts I have met with throughout the whole of . but no where have I found a statue erected to the memory of a man who devoted his life to making money. To-day I speak to you with my feelings of twen- ty-two years, for in your company [ have for- gotten I ary a banker, and only thought of my youth and good humor.”’ a Miss Vixcext axp ner Horx.—Miss Vin- cent, atrance medium, had been astonishing the people of Sandusky for some time with her oracular demonstration, but her glory was re- cently nipped in the bud by the simultaneous production of several lights by tho audience, revealing her with a horn to her mouth. in the act adivertag a communication. The follow- ing is from the official statement sworn to by thos@ who witnessed the exposure : “ Sfter sitting some time in the dark, the der!” + Fire!” to the bride !”’ with Walte: hgpfis commenced vibrating on the table, as- ended the wall, went along tho ceiling, came down and went round touching many in the circle, after which a sound as if ofa mighty rash- ing wind came from the horn, with sundry knocks on the table, when a voice proceeding from the horn, purporting to be that of a person who died four thousand years ago, proceeded to in- struct the circle by blowing thom up and telling them that some of their minds were fur tuo rovelling, and not angelic enough to be mem- ae of any circle, an nested them to ask for the information that he (the. spirit of the horn) received from his teacher in the sphere that he wasin. An agreement had been made by three members of the circle, that when 2 certain questidn was asked, the light should be struck while the answer was given. The question was, ‘Was Jesus Christ a legitimate or an ille- gitimate child?’ The horn answered, ‘He was a legitimate chi—,” when the light was struck, and there stood the medium over the table holding the horn to her mouth and finishing the sentence. On being detected, she imme- diately dropped the horn on the table, and fell back in her chair.”’ ~ 0 Tue Vierorta Batner.—It is expected that the great Victoria Bridge at Montreal will be completed by next October. The great central tube has been raised to its place on the massive stone pier. The Portland Argus says: There are many facts of curious interest con- nected with the erection of this tube, which are probably unknown to most of our readers. The river closed in December, and made several shoves. It was not until January that the ice became thick and firm enough to bear the enormous weight which it was to sustain. At this period an enormously heavy wooden bridge, or stage it may be more properly called, was built on the ice direetly under the iron tube to be erected. On this stage was set up a large stationary steam gggine for the purpose of hauling up the maMfrinls to be used in its erec- tion, on a temporary railway, also built on the surface of the ice. The iron tube was com- menced in its centre, Frogreming from the centre towards the ends day byday. This tube is of immense size and great ik bag much greater than the other tubes of the bridge, they being 242 feet long, 16 feet wide, and graduated to the shore ends to 19 feet high; while the great centre tube is 330 feet long. 16 feet wide, and 22 feet high, and about 60 feet above the summer level of the river, thus ajlowing steamers to pass under it. = woe - ~— Captain Hupsox, of the Niagara, was once, 8 ys the Jamaica (Long Island) Farmer, a baker by in Brooklyn. One day he chanced to be in the Navy Yard at Brooklyn, and the thought struck him that he would like toenter the navy. So, going to the proper officer, he applied for admission. The novelty of seeing a lad alone, boldly asking for a place so often secured by political preferences, or by the entreaties of influ ontial frlenda, attracted at once the atten- tion of the officer, and he enquired, “What can youdo?"’ The reply was prompt amd decisive: “Anything thatanother boy can.”’ He was told tocall aguin, and afew days passed, and the aeey was given to the enterprising lad.
