The mil ilnry took it up and completed the humbug A pompons funeral wa planned, and Gov.

It i (upposed that seven thousand persons followed in procession. Gov. Sewaid was purtirularly eloquenl on the farcical occasion. " F. llow-citiens." aaid he, in his exordium, " there is a history contained n the mouldering bones depos ited in that urn." 11 was right. There uu.t a history. Not of bat tle, blood nnd Indian maearres, but ol devastated corn fields, murdered porker nnd unfilial cubs; a theme a fruitlul and diversified, if not as spirit-stirring and interesting. In a few days the secret leaked out the joke was too good to keep; editors wrangled, doctors quarrel ed, the military swore, but they had no redress they bad been most unmercifully sold, and to this day you cannot touch an inhabitant of Rochester in a more tender place than to ak him if he made one ot the bear procession lo Mount Hope, or if he was particu larly edified with Gov. Seward's oration over Bruin's sacred remains. The Ol.l-Llne Whig of rhllatlilpltla.

The London Times say that the mutters brought by Sardinia before the Conference now held in Puih relate to every part of Italy, bui the chief importance is given lo the condition of the Papal terntoiie. Sardinia takes ground against the temporal suprem acy ol the priesthood, and invites the all.es to de liberate on the reconstruction of tho Roman govern ment. Acco'diRg to the '1 iines, she totally repudiates the iosiiion that temporal power i ncce.sary for the Pooe.in order that he may fully cxcrciso his spiritual authority. She holds that his function might he wisely lotrujicd In ecclesiastical matters, or if his rights us a leinporul sovereign be deemed inalienable, it might be insisted thut lie should ent.roly distin fruikh between Ins duties a the head of the church and his duties as Itahnn Sovereign; and that, while ecclesiastical posts ar held by Cardinals nnd Bish ops, nil thut concerns tho population which is sub ject lo him, should he committed to iiBionsible Ministers, chosen from tho laity, under the sufe guard ol new and aalutaiy law. It is doubtful whether Sardinia can bring over France and Austria to her views upon this subject, blip, however, regards ihu.se measure us of the high est importance, and mumlaina that I hey are necessity fur tho peace ol Ituly. t umixlilal Al venturr. The Buffalo Republic relates that recently a false hearted muriicd man in Iciroit attempted to e'upe from hi lawful spouse with another woman to Can ada. Tbe guilty couple crossed the liver in one steamer, while the injured but spunky wife pursued them in another; and just us '.he train whs leaving Windsor tho lutti r sprung upun the rear car nnd ran through the i oaches until she found the runaway couple, quietly senlcdidr by snle. She upbraided the nun for running away from bis lawfully wedded wife, and insisted that he tliou!d leave the cars nnd return with her. This tho husband stoutly re-fused io (In, when the wife appealed to the conductor, and pnsluco.l the necessary vouchers of her identity. The conductor, with much good sense, decided (hut a woman wna entitled to her husband, and informed the man that he would be under the neccssiiy of do. Iiveiing luni over to the custody of Ins Letter half. By this lime the pussengets had gathered around, nnd the scene became exceedingly ludicrous The man declared that he would not leave bis dulcinca, nnd she persisted in retaining him. The tears and en treaties of tho wife were too much for the sympa thetic conductor; be pulled the check-string, stopped the train, ejected the husband from the car, and de livered him to his wife, aeernl of tho passengers holding on to the other woman, who made the most desperate endeavors lo lollow. The man tried bard to get on Ihe cars after thoy wero in motion, but w as unable to do so in consequence of the tight grasp ol Ihe wife on to his coat-tails.
