The history of the secret associ- • Elions that sprang up during the latest days of, empire, v.oud form a most curious and in-1 teres-i'-ii \o!amet and there would ne no lack of j material* to till it. The society of the United i Trot hers alone would famish pug*** of the most : .•bsoibing interest, while nothing could appeal. More forcibly to the imagination than the strange and dramatic episodes connected with, the events and the details of its mysterious movements. Perhaps a hundred incidents might be related as striking and well conceived as the following: An officer of the French army, having incurred the suspicion of resentment of the emperor, thought it expedient to abandon his country, and take refuge in one of the Austrian provinces and here he became advised of, and initiated a society, whose object was to hurl to the ground the Colossus, whose arm smote and covered the whole continent of Europe with a formation sceptre of iron. One day a letter was found to him, containing the usual signs and passwords of the society, and requiring him to repel on the following night to a secluded spot in the forest, where he would meet some of his associates. He went, but he found nobody. The orders were repeated four times, at intervals of a few days; and four times the officer sought the appointed place, with no better success than at first. On the fifth night of his appearance in the rendezvous, after waiting some time, he was on the point of returning, when loud orb's suddenly arrested his attention. During his sword, he hastened to the spot where they seemed to proceed, and was fired by three men, who seeing that he remained unbounded, instantly took to flight; but at his feet, a bleeding corpse, in which by the feeble fight of the moon, he in vain sought for the possession of animation. He was yet bound over by the man, when a detachment of chasseurs, armed apparently by the noise of the pistol, had been discharged by himself, arrested him as the assassin. He was loaded with chains tried the next day and condemned to die for his supposed crime. His execution was ordered to take place at midnight. Surrounded by the ministers of justice, he was led at a slow pace by the light of torches and amid the jubilant tolling of bells, to a vast square, in which was a scaffold, environed by the elements beyond these were a numerous multitude who muttered impatience by; in intercessions, sent forth a cry of abhorrence. The victim mounted the scaffold, his sentence and the last act of the tragedy was staged when an officer let the prisoner go. The execution was suspected; it was that of which the crime was a mere one. He was denied knowledge; they urged himself, mistaking his only reply was a demand of immediate trial. The execution was completed. All assert was a terrible trial of his fidelity; but the punishment was not rounded. The members of the family and every incident that has been described in the first summons to the last fearful act of the crime was only a step in the way of the fearful experiment, by which the deed was executed. From an unpublished American work, "Laughter is characteristic; the eye, the mouth, the gaudy of more so. Laughter is expressive, the laugh sarcastic, the laugh compulsory. and the hearty hoigh; there is the rueful laugh of disappointment, the bitter laugh of scorn, the wild laugh of despair, and the harmless idiot laugh. The “M s laugh hath something melancholy in it. The gravest judge on the bench has at times a decorous laugh, but even then, "curn privi gio Uegis." Divine indulgence indulges in a hearty chuckle, but may be heard, with a furious wind, several miles down the river. Lengthen-hmen laugh with a full, round, unsparing laughter, “ore rotundo,” as the Greeks spake in the days of yore. When an Irishman laughs, his generally at his own wit, and a Scotchman laughs at the wit of George Buchanan. A Frenchman laughs, par politesse, whether he understands the joke or not, and customarily adores his visage with a perennial smile. The German, it is true, has a guttural chuckle, but is surpassed by the genuine Netherlander, whose mirth never rises beyond the “os hyoides.” Then you have the “Tee-chee hee” of the Mexican, the “thi-hi of the Malay, the bilious rasgos of the haughty Castilian, the giggle of a schoolgirl, “ridens agulo,” the lawyer’s laugh at the judge’s lacetic, which is louder, but by no means so heartfelt, as the suppressed chuckle with which he pockets a retaining fee. Physicians are generally grave to a fault, probably from continually reflecting on the apothegm of their Conn archetype. “Ars longa, vita brevis,” but occasionally may be detected in a sardonic smile. Woman.—“Who is she?” a Rajah was in the habit of asking whenever a calamity was related to him. However trivial. His attendants related to him one morning that a labourer had fallen from a scaffold. Old, when working at his palace, and had broken his neck, “Who is she?” demanded the Rajah. “A man—no woman— great prince.” was the reply. “Who is she?” repeated the Rajah, with increased anger. In the Attendants asserted the manhood of the laborer. “Bins: me instant intelligence that woman caused this accident, or we, upon the brink, explained the prince. In an hour of active attendants returned, and prostrating themselves, cried out “O wise and powerful, as the ill-fated laborer was working on the scaffold, he was attracted by the beauty of one of your highness’ damsels, and gazing on his lost balance and fell to the ground.” You hear now,” said the prince, “no accident can happen without a woman being in some way an instrument.” A SPECIAL ORIGINAL! From the V. V. Spirit of the Times. In the midst of the great show, an Englishman, who was in the midst of the round sum of $1500 for slandering Mr. Tunnath Donson, the chemist of that place. The trial took place at Brooklyn last week, because he took to plead his own cause, but used a sort of fist of it, although he made a speech about a long, and stated that he only whispered to a man relative to Dobson so as to put him on his guard. He was cast in the sum of $1500, which he declares he will never pay. He called the jury a set of blockheads, told the witnesses and the Sheriff that they were no better than they should be heartily - the country generally, and New York law veis and juries in particular. Sell-is is a native of London, where he owned considerable property. He came to New York, we believe, in 1551.—'bought real estate here and on Long Island, and on the trial also proved to be worth $3600,000! His career in this country has been as erratic and diversified as that of his friend ex-Sheffield Parkin. His violent disposition has embroiled him in perpetual and expensive lawsuits. However, he is a man of talents, and possesses a fund of information on almost all subjects. His mind, which is highly cultivated, is partially unsettled at any time, and frequently is a perfect chaos. His taste in music, in literature, and the fine arts, as well as in but few horticulture, etc., would astonish those who do not know him intimately. Though unfortunate in most of his early speculations, the list of his estates in the village of the estate has given him a splendid fortune. He is the principal proprietor of the Franklin theatre in this city, and owns several valuable houses and offices, besides two or three valuable farms on Long Island. We were at his house from years since, opposite Brooklyn, for which, with the garden and small lot of ground attached, he had previously paid $3700. Within six months he had been living in New York. has refused $160,000 for that same little stone house and ground! Another farm of his on Long Island that cost him not over $10,000, a house, stock, and all, is worth at this moment and could be sold in lots in a steel for over $3,200,000! He long ceased misfortunes, land 1 Have, we presume, the victim of lawyers, and was wont to take the strange fancy into his head that there were people here from England with the intention of assassinating him. When people were accidentally shot at Windsor, Seamans, who was present, turned for months that the bullet was intended for him. And many in the time that, in the deepest distress, he has wandered or concealed himself in the streets of the late long night, for fear that in leaving his own promises he should be set on the scene and looted. Born his habit of filling his coat pocket, and hat, occasionally with loss bank notes. To go back to the ancient law suit with Dr. Dobson—if Schols will not pay Dobson, the latter may as expect to draw a blister on a millstone as money. If we do not greatly err in our estimate of the man, ex-Sheriff Parkins will soon have a companion in the Debtor’s prison after his own heart. The Gazette de Saute (Gazette of Health) a medical journal of Paris, contains the following paragraph: "M. Marochetti, surgeon of the hospital of Moscow, being in the Urkraine in 1513, was requested to give assistance to fifteen persons who had received the bite of a mad dog. A detachment of men waited upon him, and entreated he would administer help to the unfortunate persons, through a peasant who had acquired a high reputation for curing hydrophobia. Marochetti consented on certain conditions. The country doctor then administered to fourteen of the persons confined to him, in a peculiar way. The fifteenth, a young girl, was treated in the ordinary way, for the purpose of proving the effect of both modes of treatment. To each of the fourteen, he gave daily one pound and a half of the decoction of the buds of yellow broom flowers, and he examined twice." A day, under the tongue, the place where, according to his statement, little swellings were found containing the veins of madness. These swellings arose the third or ninth day, and were seen by Marochetti very soon after they appeared. They were touched with a red hot needle, after which the patient gargled the part with a decoction of broom. The result of this treatment was, that the fourteen patients were cured in six weeks, whilst the young girl, treated differently, died on the seventh day in convulsions of madness. Three years afterwards, M. Marochetti paid a visit to the fourteen persons, and found them all doing well. High Water and Tide in the Great Lakes.— There is a prevalent opinion, on the borders of these great inland seas, that they have a regular flow and ebb, each movement embracing seven years. The same traditional notion exists, we have found, in the vicinity of small lakes on Long Island, that of Ronconcoma Pond, for example, in Suffolk county. It is stated, positively, that the tide ebbs and flows in Lake Michigan seem the sea. This is said in the Halifax (Canada) Traveller, to be the 6th year of the rise of Ontario. The Toronto Albion avers that the waters of this lake are, this year uncommonly hard, and cannot be used for washing, in consequence of containing an unusual quantity of lime, brought in by the melting of the immense quantities of snow of the past winter, as they run through the limestone regions that abound in that country. All the speculations about tides in the great lakes must fall to the ground, if the theory of the late Dr. Mitchell be correct, and it probably is, that those seas are gradually undergoing a process of draining by the St. Lawrence, and have been so far ages, as is evinced by the organic remains found in the great basin of the West, which they once covered, and also by the traces of the former shores, from whence the waters have receded. We may hereafter recur to this subject. It is one which admits of much ingenious speculation. Sele Defence.—The Pennsylvania Sentinel | has an excellent article on boxing and boxing, matches, a subject which seems to create no lit- j tie excitement in this country at the present; time, when foreign bullies renowned for brute strength and ferocity are caressed, and praised.. The following cx:raets from hi-, remarks are to the point: “The argument urged m favor or the-m deoas-. ing combats is, that they instruct in science of defence.’- Defence “‘■“'■’nu « The assaults of blackguards and bnU n ,;',t w ho is ever exposed to their attacks, if he avoids ad connection with them excepting v. hat in* n cessit.es of business may require.

In if they viewed with much concern, a concern, when they do quarrel. It is sure to result in this mode of quartering. The combination is excited by such exhibitions, and seek its gratification in the Sun's true. A New York is full of ferocious bullies. It is collected by regularly organized corps of liters, well known to the press by the names of the chief and various other candidates. What renders these proceedings so contemptible? The encomiums given by the people, as they are miscalled, to hooting matches and boxing schools. Such things are patronized by wealth and fashion, without any hesitation, would not be sustained; and commended by the press without which they would soon be forgotten; and Chester gangs, and associations seeing them thus countenanced and supported, frequent them, and practice their actions. In the midst of this, the people, instead of regarding pugilism, fencing, and fishing, are necessary to guard the peaceful against assaults of bullies and ruffians, we believe that such actions would be necessary. Practices multiply such characters. The state of society must indeed be rotten. The people are probably rotten, when a proficiency in these sciences is necessary to public safety. The need of wise laws; or if it has them, it needs rigid enforcement. Fines and imprisonments supersede the necessity of such sciences. Sound Doctrine.— The principles of association weal to accomplish particular works, either by a voluntary copartnerhip or a legal corporation, was early adopted; and it is obviously beneficial to persons of small means, who, by thus uniting their little sums, are enabled to accomplish useful works, otherwise unattainable, or beyond the reach of all except the most wealthy. The system thus only begun has been steadily pursued through all our history down to our own days. It has given to the country your whole vests—your docks your bridges—your turnpikes—your canals—your canals—your steamboats—your railroads and most splendid edifices—your flourishing manufacturing establishments—your wide spread commerce. To abandon the system, as some of the theorists demand, would be to stop short in the march of improvement. If there be abuses in it—and all systems are liable to abuses—correct them; but to prohibit all corporate association, of wealth and power by the legislative will, ignorance or knavery. Sir Nathaniel Wrayn's pencil is somewhat given to caricature. We have heard many things of the late Duke of Norfolk, but none that come up to this report: “Nature, which cast him in her coarsest mold, had not bestowed on him any of the external insignia of high descent. His person, large.” Muscular, and clumsy, was destitute of grace or dignity, though he possessed much activity. He might indeed have been mistaken for a grazzier or butcher, by his dress and appearance; but intelligence was marked in his features, which were likewise expressive of frankness and sincerity. “At a time when men of every description wore hair-powder and a queue, he had the courage to cut his hair short, and to remove powder, which he never used except when going to court. “Strong natural sense supplied in Lord Surrey the neglect of education; and he displayed a sort of rude eloquence, whenever he rose to address the house, analogous to his formation of mind and body. In his youth—for the time of which I speak he had attained his thirty-eighth year—he led a most licentious life, having frequently passed the whole night in excess of every kind, and even laid down when intoxicated, occasionally to sleep in the street, or in a block of wood. At the “Beefsteak Club” he had dined with him, he seemed to be in his proper element. But few individuals of that society could sustain a contest with such an antagonist, when the cloth was removed. In cleanliness he was negligent to such a great degree, that he rarely made use of water for purposes of bodily refreshment and comfort. He even carried the neglect of his person so far, that his servants were accustomed to avail themselves of his fits of intoxication, for the purpose of washing him. On those occasions, being wholly insensible to all that passed about him, they stripped him as they would a corpse. I and performed on his body the necessary ablu tions. Nor did he change his linen more frequently than he wrashed himself. Complaining one day to Dudley North that he was a martyr to the rheumatism, and had ineffectually tried every remedy for its relief. "Pray, my Lord, did you ever try a clean shirt?" Speaking Automatons.—There are at present two of these extraordinary pieces of mechanism exhibiting in Germany. One, constructed by Joseph F'atier, of Riegel, produces distinctly different sounds and even pronounces whole words. It is made to speak by means of twelve stops, which correspond with as many principal sounds, which can be combined in themselves The other, which is constructed by Warmholz has only been exhibited to a few persons.— Several very interesting experiments of this description were made at the close of the last century by a celebrated mechanic, Kratzenstein at St. Petersburg. A piece of mechanism was, at that period, also brought to such a state of perfection to perfectly imitate the voice of a child the mouth being made of India rubber. Willis, of Cambridge, produced also some very interesting pieces of mechanism. An Irish paper states that the Prince of Capua, by his marriage with Miss Penelope Smyth, acquires right to be buried in the churchyard of Youghal. Foreign ITEMS. The ship Hocco at New York. London, June 20.~The latest news from Spain, which arrived on Saturday, is received by the Royal Tar steamer, which arrived on Saturday. The accounts which the Miners are far more favorable to the Queen's Cordova, it is reported, had rejoined its army; but there was no expectation to at its movements would be more energetic in future than they were previous to its visit at San Sebastian. Indeed, it is said that Colonel Evans has so little reliance upon receiving any sincere cooperation on the part of Cordova that he will not undertake any new enterprise in which the aid of the Spanish General would be considered necessary; and as the British Legion could not make these circumstances, attempt to advance, it was expected that, for the preservation of their health, which was, at present, suffering very seriously, they would be under the necessity of returning to San Sebastian. The Royal Tar steamer brings home several wounded officers; and some of the passengers go so far, when speaking of the present state of Spain, as to express an opinion that at no very distant period the whole British Legion and the men of war would all be at Spithead. They represent all parties, including the city, as dissatisfied with the Cuban Republic, and ready to declare for the republic. French officials say that their reports are not to be anticipated, as the first appearance of a single man is likely to be anticipated. Kreiicti national snider in the country will be the sign of the sign for issuing of the whole of the Spanish in favor of Don Carlos. In the case of Cordova, the President would immediately submit himself averse to a republic. He was sick and wounded, and wounded. The cause of his illness came home in the Royal Tar, a majority of whom express confidence highly disgusted with the cause in which they have established. We received the Paris papers of Saturday. On Friday, the business of the Chamber of Deputies became interesting by a vote suppressing all the gambling houses of the capital from January to June. The Home and Finance Ministers deprecated the loss to the venue, and proposed a mere gradual suppression. But the Chamber decided upon adopting the motion of M. Gaele de la Rochefoucauld, which fixes the commencement of 1838 as the term of permission to such houses. M. Lacy, one of the Ministers, voted for this motion—deprecated, if not opposed, by his colleagues—which gave rise to some observations in the Chamber. The French finance minister is denounced as the existence of seventeen noted gambling houses, which existed in Paris in defiance of the law. Count de Argout said that if the motion were agreed to, Paris would lose the foreign population which enriches it. This will, no doubt, be the fact to some extent; but the Chamber would not admit it to be a valid reason. Son against the vote. Trouble in the Fall—The Austrian Observer of the 11th June, has intelligence from Syria of the 17th of May. A mutiny broke out in Jerusalem, and some tumultuous excesses were committed. It was suppressed with difficulty and the German papers say that the prospect of the Egyptians are gloomy. Vagabonds, criminals, deserters, and refractory conduct from all Palestine, have gathered at Karurk beyond the Dead Sea. They are supported in the Bedouin Arabs, and the Company resembles that which haunted the cave of Adulphus during the flight of David, in drawing to its arms all the inhabitants of Palestine. Their number is estimated at from 13,000 to 15,000 men. They have a sufficient supply of arms, ammunition, provisions, and horses, and it is thought that it will be impossible to dislodge them. Anarchy, robbery, and murder, appear to prevail in all Syria. At the Admiralty Court, the fines imposed upon the ship, including the cargo of cotton and tobacco valued at $1,000, struck on the Wednesday, and became waterlogged. While in this unmanageable state, the George V. steamboat rendered assistance, and saved the Howard into the Mersey. Sir John Nichol, who had taken time to consider the amount of salvage to be given, now said he had looked into all the facts, and, believing it to be the policy of the Court to encourage steam vessels to aid ship in distress, he was disputed to award a considerable sum for the salvation of this great property. Sir John Nichol then awarded $2000 for services, $1000 of which was to go to the owners of the George V.; one quarter of the remainder to be given the commander of the steamship boat, and the rest to be divided among the crew. Ship Harp.— Twelve ships sailed from New York for Liverpool on the 6th instant. Among them were the packet ships the Sheffield, Alleghany, the Columbus, Holme, and the George Washington, H. Hodgkins, and several first-rate vessels the Star, the Congress, the Josephine, etc. Heavy bets were laid on the respective ships at the time of sailing. The three packet ships, having passed the company, fell in with each other on the Banks of Newfoundland. Here they parted. The George Washington passed the Hudson on Saturday afternoon; two or three hours afterwards the Sun in the same place.— Both ships entered the Mersey in the course of the afternoon, after a run of 17 days from port to port. The Columbus arrived yesterday morning. None of the other ships have seen appeared. We presume our friends in the dry goods line will find the following as good a piece as we could see; and we are sure the clothiers will believe that in overlooking our scraps and remnants we could not have cut a better. The weight who could dress up so pretty a paragraph has a just idea of what is necessary to constitute a marvellous proper man, and should never be permitted to show a threadbare vest, a rusty beaver, or a worn-out sole.—Multiply more Republican. Alee or Goon Clothes;—No man acquainted with life can be ignorant. Orant of the improvement which genteel apparel produces in the carriage, tone of thought, and principles of an individual. It gives a man confidence, self-respect, and a sense of equality with his companions; it inspires him with energy, independence, delicacy of sentiment, courtesy of manner, and elevation of language. The face becomes manly, bold, and free; the brow open and the eye clear; there is no slinking through narrow lanes and back streets; but on the contrary, the smoothly dressed man steps out with a determination not to spare the earth, or to walk as if he trod on eggs or razors. No; he brushes onwards, as if the first to accost his friends; gives a careless bow to this, a bluff nod to that, and a patronizing bow to a third, who is worse dressed than himself. Trust me, kind reader, that good clothes are calculated to advance a man's life nearly as well as good principles, especially in a world like this, where external appearance is taken as the exponent of what is beneath it. Says that the poet McDonald, Jack, has been living on Graham bread for the last six months, and is now so thin that you can whistle through him.
