It has been said that the miseries which the United StatesT suffer, arc punishment for our national sins. The inhabitants of other countries seem to think that we are not so grievous) punished as some imagine. The number of emigrants this season from Europe, it is supposed will be greater than in any former year. They have averaged it is said 200 a: day for the past fortnight at the port oFNeW York alone. It would therefore appear, that the people of other nations suppose times to be better here than any where else. More Robbery. An advertisement ap pears In the Baltimore American of Tuesday ottering on the part of the Frederick County Bank at Frederick, Md., a reward of ten thousand dollars for the apprehension of cer tain thieves who some time between Saturday evening and Monday morning entered the Banking nouse by means of false keys and carried dff specie, notes and other valuables fo the amount of one hundred and eisrhty-five thousand dollars. The Maryland Banks, however, know how to manage these things. The specie ($10,000) could not be of much use to a suspended Bank. Its own notes ($135,000) are no loss as the Bai k does not intend to redeem them besides, these notes will be put in circulation and "relieve the people." Malicious persons, in these days of bank defalcation, may be inclined to doubt whether this advertisement of robbery may not be a new way found out of balancing in convenient items in the ledger if so we re commend it to the United States Bank. Let them advertise for the man who very lately robbed the Bank of that missing $400,000 spent in buying up the Pennsylvania Legis lature in 1836. (Jharleston Jvlercury.

T No one understands how a newspaper should be conducted, so well as some indi viduals who never managed a paper, in all their lives. They understand all about it. This is a net gain,' as the lean spider said to the fat fly. Did you ever notice the difference of gait between a hungry man going to breakfast, and the same man returning well filled with pro visions ? ' Teeth inserted here as the bull dog said when he bit. ' Committees of relief and vigilance gangs of pickpockets. A learned divine named Brown says that tight lacing is a circumvention of the devil to supply hell with young women. An eastern editor says it is very agreeable to be writing a tender billet doux, with a flea trotting up and down your back, and taking an occasional bite at your hide. No doubt he speaks fetlingly. Father Time is not always a hard parent, and though he tarries for none of his children often lays his hand lightly upon those who have used him well; and making them old men and women inexorably enough, but leav ing their hearts and spirits young and in full vigor. With such people, the grey head is but the impression of the old fellow's hand, in giving them his blessing, and very wrinkle but a notch in the quiet calendar of a well spent life. Many a man may justly thank his talent for his rank, but no man has ever been able to return the compliment, by thanking his rank for his talent. What word makes you sick if you leave out one of the letters ? M (usick.) Streeter has invented a syrup for young people, called " Concentr --J Syrup of Goose quill, which gives children an immediate taste for composition. It is excellent for editors hard up for ideas. Remains of Gen. Harrison. A letter from Cincinnati says: Judge Burnett, Col. Todd, and John Scott Harrison, will leave here on the 3d or 5th of June, for Washing ton, to bring on the remains of Gen. Harri son. They expect to remain at Washington some eight, or ten days. What would a lion, after eating a young lady, be likely to say if he could speak, and wished at the same time to name some tragic Roman performer ? . Ans. "Grad I ate her."' (Gladiator.) Boat for the Niger Expedition. There is now constructing in Woolwich dockyard a boat about twenty feet long and ten feet broad, and about two and a half feet deep, and yet it is so light that it is capable of beiug carried any distance on the sholders of four menrlt is formed of thin strips of wood, about two inches broad, and woved together exactly in the same manner as Indian matt ins, and it is intended to cover the outside with water-proof canvass. The purpose for which it will be used is to cross shallow creeks and rivers. Political. A Solution Wanted. The subjoined communication was sent to our office a day or two since, and we give it to, the curious and scientific as it came to hand. We have not yet tried the experiment, nor sought a so lution of the " problem," b ut shall probably do so when we can raise pins enough to fill a wine glass: Who can Solve this ProblemV1 Fill a wine glass to the brim, with water, or if possi ble, raise it in the glass even higher than the edge, by letting one drop fall at a time, until it presents a convex surface; When this is done, drop into the glass as many common pins as will fill it, and the water Will not over flow. This simple experiment may be very easily tried ; but I have never seen it explain ed. Water is not compressable in a wine glass, and tho pins are wade of solid metal, yet the water in the glass remains as it was before the pins were dropped in. Baltimore Sun. The new Mistress of the White House. The editor of the New York Sig nal, after remarking that " the duties Mrs. John Tyler is destined to perform could not be committed to one more worthy to adorn and dignify so lofty a situation mild and patient in adversity, she will bo gentle aud kind in prosperity," adds, Miss Cooper was for a short time on the stage, she trod the boards, However, in mere obedience to her father's will, ancrtrom a deep filial sense ot obligation to his wishes. The profession ot an actress was ever repug nant to her feelings, and her sensitive na ture shrank from the rude necessities of a profession, the honors of which she neither hoped or sought to win. We remember to have seen her performance of Virginia in Boston, some years ago for her father s beue fit; It was not acting ; it was chaste and beautiful reading an exhibition of tender, womanly emotion a striving after a certain aim ; and that aim vas to gratify and aid her father-. She evidently labored under the most painful embarrassment, and it was with diffi culty she sustained her role. In the dress circle were many of her close personal friends ; for, though an actress, she moved in the best circles of the city, and was caressed by the most refined of her sex. She was up held through all the performances by the en couragement of her friends; but each one heaved a sigh of relief when the tragedy was ended. At this time many sympathies and cordial friendships were extended to Miss Cooper. Generous. The insurance companies of St. Louis, having become satisfied- that it was through the exertions of Mr Michael O'Keefe that an extensive conflagration was recently prevented in that city, presented him with a handsome gold watch, chain and key. That was doing the handsome thing. The Spaniards do not often pay hyperboli cal compliments, but one of their admired writers, speaking ofa lady's black eyes, says, '" They were in mourning for the murders they had committed " From the Globe. The Message. We heard the President's Message read," and; have only a' few moments" tof remark on it, without reperusal, as bur paper goes to press at five o'clock. , It has been the most painf ul aborfron eve? delivered. .The fiscal' agent, which ft has cost so much labor to bring forth, Will cost the public quite aJs much to become acquainted with it, from the lineaments portrayed by me parent in the Message. It is the most nose- ess monster we have ever seen. It has no handle to its face no point. It has tto head ; and What is as bad, in this casL it has no fall to it: It is, too, without an eye, to see its way in the world, for the fiscal agent as presented by the message, the reader wiH perceive has all its eyes put out by tne lather. It is " monslrum horrendum ctti larrien adem- turn: The recommendation"of the new ban tling, begins by declaring that a Bank of the United States had not only been condemned by the two last Administrations; but that they had been supported by the people in its con- detnnattoa ; that the people had condemned the State Bank system also, and finally a1 constitutional Treasury, dr; as it is called in the message, theSob-1 reasury. This Sub- Treasury is, in fact, nothing but a Govern ment Treasury ; and according to Mr Tyler; then, the nation means to gei rid ofa Treasu ry of its own, and resort to some other Trea sury not its own: The only three mtfdei of , keeping the public money yet tried, naving all been condemned bf President Tyler; the eye of experience is put out. Sorely there was reason to expect, mat ne wouia open mat of theory. , But he does not give us the light of philosophy to keep lis out of tho darkness in whicn the message involves every uuug. It recommends a fiscal agent but what sort of a fiscal agent the President saith not. The Senate would have been left in this titter darkness if Mr Clay bald clot come to the res cue of this bewildered body: He rose and gave notice that he would oh to-morrow move ior a special commiueu w icuun uuuu uia portion of the message which recommends a fiscal agent whereupon, Mr Merrictt, sena tor from Maryland, inquired What sort bf a fiscal agent was meant. Why, said Mr Clay, in reply, " I mean a Bank of the United States." This explains the whole matter. The Under President, for such Mr Tyler cer tainly is, has ndt ventured to say what he pro poses, because he simply proposes to adopt whatever chartered fiscal agent Mr Clay and his friends may create. The rest of the progeny of the Message are akin to this greater brother. The Whole litter are abortions. The President is for adherence to the compromise tariff, and yet he is for levying whatever taxes shall become necessary. He finds the revenues altogether inadequate, and yet he is in favbt bf giving away the public domain ib the States, and suggests whether it would not be well td give it twice first to theco agent thai it may profit by them ; and then the fiscal agent to make partition among the co-partner Suites, The dividends, after passing through this mill, and pdyins the requisite toll, would, we sus pect, turn out about as much to the States, as the Biddle Bank now distributes among its stockholders. In addition to this mode of depletion, the message proposes vast addition' al appropriations ! ! How is all this to be pro vided for without breaking down the compro mise act, ot the creation bf A public debt 1 yet agaidst this latter expedient, the President embraced a still earlier occasion his inaugu ral address to pronounce most emphatical ly ? There was one mode through which the tho President might haVe attempted to recon cile such inconsistences, that is by proposing economy ; but he has cut himself off from this, by proposing increased expenditures. We are mortified to find no retrenchment of expenditure, nor any economy recom mended in essential particulars. The great burden of the song is, additional appropria tions additional and increased, exoendi- tuures. He and his Secretary of the Treasury seem to have found little or nothing of the moDstrous arrearages, and forty millions debt, which ung so loud in and out of Congress last win ter. But they speak bf an increased expendi ture for the year of six or seven millions beyond the estimates made by their'predeces sors. This has been effected by appropriating near two millions more last winter than the annual-estimates ; by calling an extra ses sion to cost another million e and bv askinsr for two or three millions more of appropropri ations of this session for army, navy, pension and other purposes. Again, they speak ofa reduced revenue of four or five millions, which their own friends have produced by causing the banks in the Middle, Southern, and Western States to re sume, -and by aid of the enormous frauds, and corruptibns in the management of the United States Bank, to injure business and -credit, so as to reduca imports and the sale c' lands ar below what they otherwise b-', been. The Distribution Schetae. The following excellent extract is from the money article of the New York Herald : "The relief held out by the dominant party is an absurdity. They proposed to distribute the public lands .according to representation,
