hoped, is intended as more than a mere propitiatory sacrifice on the altar of "bunkum." If the latter, it can serve no beneficial purpose. Experience has demonstrated that if members would but work more and talk less, while they are in session in the day time, there would be no necessity for night sessions. Members might easily condense into one hour all the work which they are in the habit of doing in a day, and all that they are likely to do in a day and night under the new arrangement. During the whole session, some of the talking members seem to have been impressed with Swift's idea, that in preaching sermons men should not take aim at any particular thing. "Shoot at everything," said the Dean, "for depend on it, scattering shots hit the most birds." The difficulty may lie in the fact that members do not themselves see what they are shooting at. Energies devoted to the accomplishment of a definite object, if the latter be for the interest of the people, cannot be misapplied.

The male line of Sir Criatopber Wren was speedily extinguished, and was sometime since stated the belief that the female line had also ceased; a correspondent, however, mentioned that, at the time be wrote, (a few years ago) and old lady descending from the great architect was still living.

Notwithstanding the anxiety of Sir Walter Scott to establish a family inheritance, his direct race have perished, and those of but slight relationship inherit his land and title.

Southern report of Affairs South of thePotomac. Alexandria, Aug. 15. --Last night, between 11 and 12 o'clock, the enemy's signal lights were plainly seen from here in the direction of Fairfax Court House. They were visible for nearly an hour. Gen Hetzelman paid a visit to Alexandria to-day for the first time since the battle of Bull-Run. H
General Hardee. St. Louis dispatches deny this statement, but in such a confused, contradictory and feeble way as not to diminish the probability of its correctness. This may, however, prove an exaggeration of the facts. But no doubt exists that Siegel's command, even if not captured, is disorganized, scattered and annihilated. Alarm and confusion evidently exist at St. Louis. It is rumored that Fremont has levied a forced loan upon the banks, of a quarter of a million of dollars. Swift and terrible has been the retribution upon the Hessian crew who committed the atrocities at St. Louis, under the infamous Lyon and Boerstein. Their bloody and brutal acts have quickly recoiled upon themselves. The pages of human history do not present an example where the infliction of the penalties for such atrocious crimes have been so speedily and surely consummated. The fires of retribution are gradually circling around the chief authors and instigators of the diabolical usurpations t

Of the funds contributed by the Tenth New York regiment, at Newport News, were distributed to the soldiers who reached here — the sum of two dollars each — as follows: Shaler, McKensie, J. Malone, C. Dunn, Sergeant Donett, Wm. Hanlon, J. Butler, R. M. Pratt, W. A. Woodbury, McHenry, A. Whitehouse, Fagen, N.

When the boat left Newport News, the Tenth gave many cheers for the sick and wounded, and for the success of the Stars and Stripes. Treatment of prisoners. All the wounded who reached here, agree in the statement that they were treated more like caged beasts than human beings, and the first salutation in the morning, as well as the sentinel's cry at nigh
ies to all the points of the compass Virgil has given a full length portrait of it, which we subjoin, in Dryden's translation. "The loud report through Lybian cities goes. Fame, the great ill, from small beginnings grown-- Swift from the first, and every moment brings New vigor to her flights, new pinions to her wings. Soon grows the pigmy to gigantic size; Her feet on earth, her forehead in the skies. Enraged against the gods, revengeful Earth Produced her last of the Titanian birth. Swift is her walk, more swift her winged haste, A monstrous phantom, horrible and vast. As many plumes as raise her loftly flight, So many piercing eyes enlarge her sight; Millions of opening mouths to fame belong, And every month is furnished with a tongue, And round with listening ears the flying plague is hung. She fills the peaceful universe with cries; No slumbers ever close her wakeful eyes; By day, from lofty towers her head she shows, And spreads through trembling crowds disastrous news.
