for wantof eViJeriee and docotnenta.
The latest attempt of the Titnea e the
Ilttild is as follows : -y .
OIJ Potosi' has just discovered what
every reader of the Tiroes knew a month
ago that the ro nantic account of a girl
shooting a burglar oo Siaten Island was
fiction, palmed upon the press by oif adtoil
young Chatterton. . But otlr venerable ani
sleepy old neighbor has forgotten that just
a week after the HUbtitil appeafed; and
had been cipldihed In b'iif cblilrhns;4 the
Herald, too nnxiour for stale new 6' let it
go entirely, and too true to its friftlncts not
to steal it socfner or latef, Re produced our
disowned statement, fri its largest typo, os
an editorial of its own, with an instructive
sermon annexed. In the cotifse 6f anoth
er week, we presurrie; our foseil friend will
. discover that it was hoateJ My the satae in
genious youth into the' exclusive publica
tion of a Staten Island romance, ait about
two sleeping lovers on York avfcnu'e, iiear
Fort VViMihington there are no such pla
ces on Staten Island who were shot by a
jealous yoiing man after trying very hard
(0 shw.t h?mself. The story 'whicb - was
loo improbable to deceive anybody else,
ileceived Old Potosi, and bis extraordinary
energy and 8s"tutness h:v nb'tyet s'accee
ded in iliscovcring that he was sold again,
as usual. So sobn as the Hpfald can spare
room for the publication of old papers read
six years ago before tbe Scientific Associa
tion, under the delusion thai people think
them news concerning the great Atlantic
Telegraph bed, we expect to" se the ro
rnance imftove'd into an- editorial for the
wearying 6f sleepy lovers and' the merri
ment of ihe choice few who mortify the
fesh by ever ftfadi'ng iti columns. . .

Member of Ihe Rofht. College of Sur

The Paris Academy of Medicine has a
gain set the papers to writing and the peo
ple to thinking earnestly of the revival of
tbe practice of burning the dead. They say
. that in tTie summer time the Parisian hos
' pitals are crowded 6y the Victims of pesti

Hoops. ? ) :
There is good sense in the following from
the Providence Journal, and oar lady read
ers, who know the value of hoops, , will
endorse it fully: "An immense amount of
fun is made of ladies' hoops, and all sons
of witticisms, from very good to execrably
stupid, are expended' upon iheir swelling
intensions and their boundjess. circumfer
ence. We do not join 1n this war upon
crinoline. It has displaced, one of tbe most
unhealthy practices that ever affected the
health of a woman. . The 'crinoline is light,
graceful according to t e prevailing idea
of grace comfortable, and, above all,
healthful, and is worthy of all encourage
ment ; yet there is no harm, perhaps, - i
making fun of it, for no riegren of ridicule
can abolish a fashion, and oo degree of rea
son can establish one." S
John Phoenix went to the theatre
once when Mrs. Smith was advertised
to appear in two pieces. V After the per
formanues he demanded lho return of
bis money, for Mrs. Smith bad appear

. ALWAYo FINDING FAULT.
There are certain people who cannot live
without findingfaiijt- No matter what
subject, or peraon, comes up In the coursd of
con versotioo, they start some frivolous objec
tion, or make some censorious remark. In
slead of trying to be in charity with iheir
neighbors, they take malicious pleasure '.n
peaking evil about thena They obstinately
shut their eyes ' Cd good qualities ; while
they employ rnicrbscopea kto 'discover and
maghity evil ones; -and afterwards 1 hey
torture language to exaggerate what they
have seen, so as to depreciate as much aa
possible. They do not," however, always
speak btit boldly. But they deal in inuen-'
does, in biota, and io ominous shakes of the
head. ' Instead of frankly assailing in front,
they, assassinate behind the back. Practi
cally, they persuade others that all ien
are so evil, that there is not even a chance
of refprm. Ev ft in acts incontesiibly good,
1 hey -pretend to find latent selfishness.
They spend- their lives in defiling human
nature, Tike Ihtf Tool YfToes wboffl the i
urist has depicted. To-believe them, there
are none vjrtu .ua but themselves ; all the
rest of mankind being . knaves, brutes or
devils. '. : ,
The proverbial fault findcFlitde tbiuks
that, in ce nail ring so maliciously r.d in
discriminately, he is only painting his own
portrait. ft s a secret consciousness of his
demerits, a gnawing rage fat i&fc superiori
ty of others, which is the. real cause of his'
wantof charity, the principal inducement
lb his abuse. His own heart is the mirror
from which he describes mankind. . The

emancipation when bur American free
negroes were celebrating the evijnt and
siuging bOrnnahl to Queen Tictoria,
the Ltyudofr" Tittie used . the following
language: . f . ,
M The vi or thy men wfio extinguish
ed slavery and ruined our West In
dies possessions are tery touchy, very
oVstttiaie, very inconvertible' on that
tender point. It is tint "bur business to
deny litem much just rc 4 antf truth on
their side, or to stand tip for the plant
ers, who tool? a line which repelled all
reasonable advocacy. "But, confessedly
taking that grand summary view of the
q estion which we cannot help taking
after a qnarter of a . century j tjfe pro
cess was a failure ; U destroyed an im
mense property, ruined thousands of
good Jamil es, degraded the negroes
still lower than they were, and after
all, increased' the mass of slavery in
less strttpuluus hands. After pjany
attempts at indirect discouragement, we
have been obliged at! last to recognise
and admit persistent slave ownefs to an
equal rank in our commerce. Every
body who comes fresh in to the question,
uncora promised and unbiased,- admits
ths failure, and asks why n we did! not
attempt gradual or spontaneous emanci
pation, if it was, indeed, utterly impos
sible to. improve the practice" of slavery:
into something more like that we read
of in sacred as well as classical antiqui
ty. The more these questions are ask
ed, and The more trrese doubts abound,
tbe more positive are rhe . men of then
past that they did right ia their days,
and that they cannot beY improved upon
in our days. '
