Hi' i i SUFFERING HUNGARIANS. I It is certain that the Huiigafians who eame over with Kossuth are in a sobering condition. It is said that ibey are willing (o work and that oneof them,' who is a Magyar noble! of 1 high rank, hoasts that he earns if k halter's sbop; 27 cents a week more than will pay his board. As the money raised to promote a Revolution in Hungary cannot be appropriated to that, foolis purpose especially since the movement of Napo Icon, it has been suggested that leave be obtain : ed of the donors to apply it to jibe relief of the suffering exiles. - A very good suggestion -as it is now known that relief is wanted to prevent deaf h bp starvation. What a ; comment ibis is opdii tho uproarous enthusiarrl of the hour 7 where are the; tipsy patriots ;f where the sober clergy ? These have made Iossuth tne God of their; idolatry i while the sharers in his pains and perils are left to starve.

OCT; We had the pleasure recently, while on a visit to Wilmington, of seeing the block of marble which the Young Men's Th&lian asso ciationof thai town have presented to ihe Wash ington National Monument.

Upon the' side which will be exposed to view, is a repres'enta lion of Shakespeare with a ribbon floating over his headland uponl it a carved ihe words, 44 Wilmington North Carolina Thalian Associ at ion." The block of marble was brought from Surryand though of rather a coarse texture, the work is neatly executed, and the likeness of the great dramatist quite striking. Mr. McLara nan, of Wilmington, whose work it is, deserves much credit. He is a skilJM, work man, and if Gov. Reid had searched a little farther, he might, we ibink, hive found a North Carolina artist sufficiently accomplished to have finished the block which the State presented to the same great work Norifi CardMTelegraph.

Solomom. , j' : t CURE FOR SCANDAL. - tf j Mrs. Chalmers of Aristruher, moth'er of the Doctor, had an extreme dislike to all petty scandal. She had one rule,1 which she made known among her acquaintart ces, and which she rigidly followed.--M Whenever told of anything that a neigh bor had said or done amiss, she instantly put on her bonnet, and went at once to the person, and told what bad been sai and who had said it, and asked if it was true." Those who follow; this rule, ive opine, will seldom have occasion to exej cute it. They wjgp smile at scandal, or lis ten to it complacently, obey not the in junction of the wise man. He who pours scandal into my ears gives me just occaj sion to be angry He offends my good sense by presuming that I wish to make my head a lumber-room, instead of a store house of useful knowledge ; he offends my good taste by presuming that I love gossip ; he offends my piety by thinking that 1 will "rejoice in iniquity." I am jus tified, by the wisest of ; men, in Iooking him out of countenance." 1 i .' A7eit York Express. OUR TOWN AND COUNTY.
