It will be recollected that a young Frenchman was arrested on board the Allan steamer Polynesian, on her ar- rival at this side recently, and held for extradition on grave charges of ombezzlement in Paris. We find in our European exchanges the follow- ing account of his career :â€" The facts of a long continued sysâ€" tem of robbery by a confidential em- ployee have just been brought to light in Paris. A certain Teschemacher, a German by birth, has long enjoyed the entire confidence of a great Anglo- French firm, Messrs. Poisset, of Bradâ€" ford and Paris. Though but twenty- eight years old and boyish 0f appear- ‘ ance, Teschemaeher occupied» the position of chief cashier, and was ‘ even trusted with authority to sign for the firm. Just before the warfiin ‘ a public place, he made the acquaint- ance of Marguerite Chauvin, a young person of some attractions and supe- rior education. Led for her sake into large expenses, he began to gamble on the turf, with such luck as to win nearlya£4,000 in a very short time. Thereupon he bought two ponies, a basket carriage and other knicknacks of the sort, and hired a charming lit- tle house in the Avenue Bourdonâ€"a neighborhood very retired. There he sat up a staff of servants, passing unâ€" der the name of Baron Alphonse. Speaking English excellently, he was supposed, in the Avenue Bourdon, to be a wealthy and eccentric milord, whose ruinous expenses were a sub- ject of gossip. Going out early in clothes of the latest fashion, he passed the day at his desk in a coat almost too ancient for respectability, dined for a franc and a half, and returned home late, fashioned and clad as he had set out. His bachelor chamber, modest beyond what his position au- thorized, was known to all in the office at 81 Boulevard Magenta. But fortune changed. Cards and horses turned against the cashier. He began to falsify his books. But for three years the double life was led without discovery, though the servants ol Baron Alphonse are wonderfully sus- picious after the fact. A fortnight since came the warning ofa catas~ trophe inevitable, though so long de- ferred. M. Poisset arrived from Brad- ford, and proposed to go over the books. Teschemacher saw his game was up, opened the safe, took out £12,000 in notes, and caught the night mail for London. Having taken care to balance the book, he still left no suspicion behind, until his non-- appearance caused alarm. Before the telegraph OVertook him, he had taken ship for Quebec on board the Prus- sian. His companion even was too late to catch him, having delayed too long over her trunks. She came back to Paris, and was arrested with 22,000 francs upon her. Of course the At lantic cable had been brought into requisition, and it is to be hoped that when the runaway lands at Quebec he will find certain persons with arms Wide open ready to receive him.»â€" Montreal' lVitness. “With all thy faults I love the still,” as the man said to his wife When she was giving him a curtain lecture.

A gentleman who has a scolding wife, in answer to an inquiry after her health, said she was pretty well, only subject at times to a “ breaking out in the mouth.” A physician once defended himsell from raillery by saymg, “ I defy any person Whom I ever attended to ac- cuse me of ignorance or neglect.” “ That you may do safely,” replied an auditor. “for you know, doctor, dead men tell no tales.” The following is a specimen of Hiâ€" bernian epistolary composition:â€" “ O’Regan, march 32â€"Tim if you did Wroito me how it happened an e1 yere aloive thin cum out here immu- diately or sooner. 1m farmin 80 acres 0’ land an have 2 cows and a. horse givin milk.

He went provided with two watches, one that ticked very weakâ€" ly and another that made as much noise as a clock. Peel began to question him as to his mode of treatment, but Curtis, giving him a dig with a syringe, told him that if he didn’t hold his tongue some injury would befall him. The quack at first applied the weakâ€" ticking watch to Sir Robert’s ear, and of course he couldn’t hear anything; but after working for some time he used the other one, and Peel could hear perfectly well!

We find in an exchange the follow- ing account of the way in which locusts â€"thnt is, grasshoppersâ€"fine dealt with in China. : “ The local authorities, Whether civil or military, are held res- ponsible for the stamping out of these insects as soon as their appearance has been reported. They are required to‘ summon a. large body of men, and at once surround and destroy the locusts, the expenses of the maintainance of the men and compensation for the crop; trodden down during the chase being supplied by the Provincial Treasury. Should the local indium-flies succeed in stumping out the locusts within a lim- ited time, their services are fayorahly reported to the Emperor; but should they fail, and the locusts spread and do damage, they are liable to be deprived of then posts, arrested, ’and handed overto the proper hoard tor punish- ment. A. certain sum per bushel is paid to peasants bringing in unwinng locusts, and half (hth sum when the locnsns are able to fly! while compensm Lion is given for crops trodden downin the chase. The locusts are swept with besoms into trenches dug at the sides of the cornâ€"fields, in which a Vigorous fire is kept up. The best time to capture locusts is when they are feeding at dawn of day, when their bodies being heavy with dew and their wings wet, they are unable to jump 01' fly.” If the \Vcstern States or any parts of them are to be Visited by the locust-s in the future as they have been of late years, some system of defence will have to be adopted. Under existing circum- stzinces'the use of men in large num» bers is impracticable, and the ingenuity of inventors or scientists is our only hope. The prospect, it; must be con- fessed, is not very cheering, for the vast uninhabited regions afford breeding grounds which eflectunily defy all at- tempts at oxtormination.â€"~Clu‘isticm Union Forty years once seemed a long and weary pilgrimage to make. In now seems but a step; and yet along the way are broken shrines where a thou- sand hopes fade to ashes, footsteps sacred ,under their drifting dust, green mounds Where the gmssis fresh with the \‘atei'ing ofteurs. We will garner the sunshine of these years, and with chastened steps and hope press on toward the twilight where the waters are still and the storms never beat. When the summer ofyouth is slow ly wasting away in the nightfall of age, and the shadows of the past years grow deeper and deeper, and life i wears to its close, it is pleasant to look back, through the vista of time‘ upon the sorrows and felicities of our earliest years. If we have a home to shelter and a heart to rejoice with us, and firesides7 then the rough places of our Wayfaring will have worn away in the twilight oflife, while the sunny spots we have passed through will grow brighter and more beautiâ€" r'ul. Happy indeed, are they whose intercourse with the world has not 'uhanged the tone of their holier feelâ€" ing, or broken the musical chords of ‘ the heart, whose vibrations are so ‘ melodious, so tender and. touching in l the evening ofold age. Thc Duke of \Vellington and Lord Brougham were utterly unlike in Lemperament and tastes, and used to say’ sharp things to each other, though with perfect courtesy and good nature. Here is a specimen of Lheir method of joking :â€" “ I have always been under the impression that your lordship would go down to posterity as the great apostle of education, the emancipator of the negro, the restorer of abused charities, the reformer of the law. But nOâ€"you will h ereufter be 'known only as the inventor of a carriage.” Lord Brougham, who invented the vehicle now known by his name, was met in thellouse of Lords by the Duke of Wellington, who, accosting him with a low bow, said : The ravages of diptheria in Aus- tralia have been so extensive within the last few years that the govern ment Offered a large reward for any certain method of cure, and among other responses to this was one by Mr. Greathead, who at first kept his method a secret, but afterwards eom- municated it freely to the public. It is simply the use ofsulphurie acid, of which leur drops are diluted in a tum- bler of water to be administered to a grown person, and a smaller dose to children, at intervals not specified. The result is said to be a coagulation of the (lipthertic membrane and its ready removal by coughing. it is stated that where the case has not adâ€" vanced to a nearly fatal termination, the patient recovers in almost every 1nstanee. The duke was defeated and made a strong remark about havingfbrgotten the boots. To this Brougham replied by which he had imagined the Duke would be remembered, addingâ€" A writer in the London Builder sug- gests that thick glass might be easily and cheaply cemented to the valls of hospitals, etc. t would be nonâ€"absor- bent, imperishuble, easily cleaned, read- ily repaired if damaged by accident‘ and, unlike paper and paint, would always be as good as it first. ’Glass can be cut or bent to conform to any re- quired shape. If desired, the plates may be colored to any cheerful Lint. The nonâ€"absorbent quality is the most important for hospitals and prisons, and, we should think, is worthy the consideration of architects. “But noâ€"your Grace will known as the inventor ofa pair boots.” Grasshoppers in China.

Caraceas, the capital of Venezuela, is mentioned as an excellent winter resort for those who desire to flee from Northern climes. The city is about 3,000 feet above the sea, and the atmosphere mild, dry, and braâ€" cing. The days are warm, the nights cool and refreshing; and there is good society, also, at Caraccas. The recent autumnal rose shov at Lyons, France, surpassed the most sanguindhopes of its projectors by its hrilliuncy and by the interest which it; excited. For many years autumnal roses have not been seen in such perfection. A magnificent yei» low seedling ten-rose, which is to be called Perle des Jardz'ns, received one of the highest prizes. The German gorernment has relax- ed the rigor of Count Von Arnim’s imprisonment. He is no longer unâ€" der police surveillance. The public prosecutor has decided to ask the court to conduct the trial of the ac- cused privately, as it will be neces- sary to read olfieial documents, the publicity of which would. be injurious to the state. The London Standard says there is reason to believe that the recent interâ€" view between Bismarck and Gortscha- kofl' resulted in the removal of their personal difficulties ; also in the adopâ€" tion of a common policy by Russia and Germany, in consequence of which thei'ormer will speedily meagâ€" nize the present government of Spain, Russia’s previous refusal to do so having been owing to Gertsehekofi's personal influence. rI‘he election of Mr. Disraeli as Lord Rector of the University of Glasgow adds an’other to the roll of' distinguished men who have enjoyed that honor. Among; his predecessors were Burke, Adam Smith, Jeffrey, Brougham, Mackintosh, Peel, Macaw lay, Lytton, Palmerston, and the present Earl Derby. Lord Maeaulay’s inaugural address, delivered in 1849, was one of the most brilliant oratori- cal performances of 111s life. The W’anzer F Machine that fastens its own thread, and sews backwards us; well as forwards, has now become a general favorite. We notice from the various destinations the cases are marked for that these machines are having that wideâ€"spr ,ad circulation they so richly merit. \Ve are not sur- prised to learn that; many ladies having American makes of machines are mixi- ous to exchange for the Wanzer F. They run very beautifully and smooth, The little noise they do make seems to add character to the machine. A California. Justice was asked to fix the bail in the case of :1. thief. He wanted to know the value of the pro- perty, and the oomplainantsaid five hundred dollars. So the bail was put at two thousand. The court after- ward learned that the property con- sisted of a bulldog, whereat he re- leased the prisoner on his own recog- nizance. This roused the anger of the owner of the dog, who remarked that “the Jestis as can’t appreciate 3. animal what’s Whipped everything Wtith whippiu’ on the coast {tint fit to sit.” A Writer from Berlin thus describes a German military bow: “Imagine an oak plank six feet in height, with a hinge in the middle, draw itself up to a perpendicular, and with a quick movement snap the hinge so that the upper part suddenly springs forward and back again, and you will have some idea of the gracefulness of the executed movement, and of the shock one has at first, when he fears that the performer has been seized with a sudden cramp that is about to get the, better of him at the very moment he is being introduced, and you wish to play the agreeable.” Mr. Moncure D. Conway, in a late letter from London to the Cincinnati Enquirer, says that one of the reports current as to the object of the Visit of the Prince of Wales to France is in reference to a project set on foot by the Bonapartists for a marriage be- tween the Princess Beatrice and the Prince Imperial, and that Wales has gone to see What the P. L’s chances are for the throne. It may also be mentioned as one of the bits of chat current in London that her Majesty recently offered the hand of her daughâ€" ter to the son of a very wealthy duke, and that it was politelyâ€"declined! The proud family, it is declared, were unwilling to see, their son, for whom they anticipate a “ career,” shelved, even on a shelf of purple and gold, alter the manner of one who has, in Western vernacular, “ been thar.” Landseer possessed the gift ofmakâ€" ing off-hand sketches with marvelous skill and rapidity. The British Quar- terly mentions the following inci- dents : “Once Landseer was kept for a. few minutes at some door in Wind- sor Palace waiting the convenience 0f the Queen. To pass the time, he seized a pen and dashed off two sketches of little dogs. And what little dogs! Not only as little as life, but full of quiet racy humor. One of them seated on his haunches, had a suppliant look, and holdsin his mouth a card inscribed with the name ‘E. Landseer.’ The other looks to the door, listening eagerly for some foot- step to assure him that he has not been quite forgotten. We don’t know Whether Sir Edwin was kept waiting at doors in Windsor Palace alter he executed those sym bolieal works. On another occasion her Majesty asks him to give her some idea of the hip- popotamus which had just arrived in the Zoological Gardens. He scrawls and blots on a piece of paper for five or ten minutes, and hands to the Queen What he has produced. There are no fewer than four vividly char- acteristic sketch portraits of the crea- ture, swimming in its bath, standing kneeâ€"deep in water, or lying beealm- ed upon its side ashore.” Miscellaneous Items J oh}; Quincy Smith’s True Love. Monday afternoon a young man named John Quincy Smith, who works in a. carriage factory, called upon Justice Potter and asked His Honor to appear at a certain house on Maeomb street at a certain hour that evening and weld two fond hearts to- gether. “The Court ” said he’d be on time, and he was, but he found the lover looking disconsolate, and the bride’s mother flushed and annoyed. “Isn’t this the place where I was to come to unite two sympathetic souls ?” inquired Mr. Potter in an anxious voice, thinking that he might have made a mistake. “You see, I‘ll nil you how it is,” explained the old lady. “Betsey Jane’s young and foolish, and she’s afraid some one will make .fun of her if she gets married 1” His, Honor thought it was rather strange, l and went otf, feeling about as blue as the lover felt. Wednesday morning John Quincy entered Justice alley again to tell Mr. Potter that he could come up to the house that evening, and that there wouldn’t be any back- ing out again. “ [t’s dead sure, is it?” asked His Honor. “You can bet on it,” replied John Quincy; “ bet a hundred to one.” His Honor was on hand again at the appointed hour, and he found the lover and her mother looking about as sad as before. The girl herself was concealed behind the door, and us soon as Potter entered, the mother pulled the door back so as to expose the hider, and exclaimed: “ Now, then, Judge, look at herâ€" look at the big booby, and see what a feel she is making of herselt'l" The girl made a skip and jumped under the ccntretable, and from thence shouted buck: “ I hain’t any more of 2L 1'00! than you are, and you know it ! ” “ Then why don’t you come out- :md get married ‘3 ” asked the parent. “Do you s’pose I want to be made fun of? ” squeade the daughter. After a while the Justice put in his voice, telling the girl that it was the lot of woman to marry; that she‘d live a happy Hie and that it wouldn’t take two minutes to tie the knot. “Come, Betsey Jane 1” sailed the mother. “Come, my love!” plead- ed John Quincy. “Come, my dear girl !” alded the Justice, raising the tableâ€"spread and extending his hand. “Oh, go away!” she sobbed, with her hands over her face, “go away and leave me here to die! 1 can’t hear to think of gittin’ jined and leav- ing mother! ” They coaxed and pleaded and scolded, but Betsy Jane was firm, and she was still resting under the table when his Honor left. John Quincy put on his hat and walked down the street apiece, and when Potter remarked that he' guess- ed there wouldn’t be any marrying in that house the young man res- ponded: “ That’s what I think, and I wouldn’t turn my hand over if I knew thth it buzz-saw was a-coming slap for me.” He is a boy of deep thought, and is much giVen to deductions. The coron- er is not his father, but he is a lad who was engaged to mind the ofiice, shake up the coal stove and answer inquiries. He is a good boy, and he has learned to syn‘xpathige with reporters. \Vhen there has been an inquest the boy puts on a cheerful look, and has the whole case so that he can rattle it off from beâ€" ginning to on}, “ Awful sud case,” he says to the re- porter. “They found the old man hanging to a beam in the woodshed, stiff aml cohl. Splendid chance for you to say that hislwide-open eyes seemed to glare down upon the coroner, and that he lud one arm stretched out, as if to shake hzmds with the grim monster death. You can say that the body swayed to and fro in the night breeze blowing in through a broken pane, and that, an owl sat; on a beam over the corpse and uttered his mournâ€" i'ul 1100-1100 I” And then he rubs his hands, his smile grows broader, and he continues : “ Business has begun to pick up, and there may be an inquest every day for a week. Han so, for I like to see business moving and money coming in. I’m looking every day for a .case 01 murderâ€"throat cut from ear to earâ€" blood stains on the wallâ€"â€"bloodâ€"stain- ed knife on the flowâ€"marks of a. fearâ€" ful strugglewdespemte villain, and so forthâ€"1f you don’t happen to be around I’ll send at boy down.” But there are other days when he is sad, and he says to the reporter: “ Nothing today. I’m sorry, but you know we can’t push business as grocers do. Advertising wouldn’t; help us a. Cent’s worth, and the holiday sea- son is no better than any other season. I wish we had a case for you, and if anything turns up I'll come down my- self and give you the points. There’s lots of folks who might as well commit suicide as not, but they don’t seem to care whether the coroner has one case a month or not at all. Be patient and we’ll try and turn up something toâ€" morrow.” \Vho could help but. contract a. re- verence for Such a boy? Last year 743 soldiers were senten- ced for 'desertien from the British army. Some of the reasons given for desertion by the men are curious; Fiftyâ€"seven were annoyed by com- rades or harshly treated by non-com- missioned officers and others ; 44 mar- ried without leave, or had “love af- fairsf’ 87 were led astray by drink; 229 deserted from dislike to the army; 81 were persuaded by comrades or bad company; 64 alleged refusals of. leave as the eause’; 29 deserted to better themselves; 30 went on sprees and did not return; 43 were tired of the army; 18 deserted on account of whims and fully; and 32 gave no cause. “Off she goes ." said a lady. “You mistake the gender,” said a gentle- man, “this is the mail-train, ”‘ Besertion in the British Army.

Millers are beginning to see the necessity and. advantage to them- selves and the country of holding meetings from. time to time to disâ€" cuss the qualities of the different kinds of wheat grown in the coun- try and how to grind them to the best advantage so as to make the best profits to themselves and thereby en- able them. to give the highest prices to farmers. A few years ago a wheat known as ml chafl" spring wheat. was introduced into this countiy, which was found to yield better to the acre than the old fife wheat, and in conse- q’i cut-n ("i‘ill‘ie it was mount to :1. very. large cziient in thi“ country, and is now brought to the market for sale.‘ The appearance of the wheat is a very fair sample and was bought by milâ€" lers at the same price as fife wheat. It was however soon‘discovered that it did not yield near as much flour nor of as good a quality as the fife spring wheat, through which some millers who had bought considerable of it had sustained heavy losses. In View of this a miller’s meeting was held at \Vaterloo last week, which was attended by the majority of the millers in the County, to get their opinions as to the real value of the red chafi‘ wheat compared with the old fif‘e wheat and to establish a fixed difference in the prices. After a short time spent in talking about milling business in general, and the experi- ence each has had in grinding the red ohafl' wheat, it was decided to make a difi'ereucc ot‘five cents a bushâ€" el. It was also the opinion of the meeting that a greater difference should be made in the price of clean and unclean wheat, that the dirty and inferior wheatis always paid too high in proportion to the better and clean- er samples ot‘ wheat. As no rule could be framed l'or each buyer to follow, it was agreed that each one must exercise his own judgment and all try and make more difference. The meeting had the effect of causing a friendly feeling and a better acâ€" quaintance among the milling brothâ€" erhood and a desire to hold‘similar meetings in the future. If dew f’ell it would fall for the same reasons that rain falls; but dew does not feillwit is simply a deposit by moisture always contained in the air to a greater or less degree, and which, when there is enough of it, will always form on any cold body exposed to the moist air, in precisely the same way that a cold bottle or stene, taken from n cold cellar and suddenly exposed in the shade to the moist, warm summer air will become wet. This is not sweating, nor does this moisture (‘omc out of the bottle or stone, as many people believe, but from the air. It is for the same rea- son that moisture will condense against the window panes when the air is cold outside and moist inside, :the moisture slowly freezing, while its depos1ts from crystals ofice, which we so often admire in winter. When the weather is COol enough the mois~ ture deposited will even freeze on plants and grass, and then we call it hear frost; if it does not freeze it is simply dew. The only point left to be explained is, why does the ground become so cool during the night, so much cooler than the air above is as to cause the latter to depositits mois- ture? This was for many years a vexed problem, till Wells first sugâ€" gested the radiation of obscure heat, which takes place from the surface of the earth through the clear atmos phere in the space above, and so causes the surface to become much cooler than the air itself. He demon- strated this by means of the thermo- meters placed at different heights, and also by the fact that dew is only deposited on cloudless nights. When there are clouds they reflectthe heat, or prevent it from escaping. The surâ€" face of the earth thus being kept from cooling, no dew is deposited. 1 to suit borrowers, on Real Estate security at 8 per cent interest (not in advance).

A few years since it was known only to the friends and neighbors and patients of the proprietor, and always sought for by them whenever troubledwith Rheumatism, and in this way came to the notice of physicians generally, and through their favorable expressions, and its acknowledged value as a Rheumatic Remedy, the demand for it became so frequent and urrfent as to oblige its proâ€" )rietm‘ to increase his facilities for its manufacture. ts reputatior rapidly extended, and soon orders, letters of enquiry, letters of thanks, and certificates of praise, were daily received from all sections of the United States and Canada ; and in this way, on a basis of its meriteloneâ€"unuidcd by “tricks of the trade,” or special effortâ€"1t has risen to its. pre- sent enviable position. Wherever introduced it has received the most flattering preference in the treat ment of all rheumatic complaints. In this way we are truly grateful and happy, not alone because our medicine finds rend] sale, and is consequently pro- titable to us. do we say this. but because we open a a new field in medical science, and cure at once what the best medical practitioners have for ages found so difficult even to relieve. We fill a place heretofore unoccupied.
