Dean Richmond's Forethought. which he is doing successfully Avery day by the use of Dealer in As an instance of the shrewdness of the late Dean Richmond, reaching frequently to prescience, the opinion of William L. Marcy, as expressed to me, touching the preliminary proceedings in New Ycrk, in regard to the Presidential election of 1852, may not be inappropriately produced in this connection. " If I had'listened to the advice of Mr. Richmond, instead of acting upon my own judgment,'' said the far seeing old statesman, " I should have been President of the United States instead of Franklin Pierce. The undivided support of New York would, as things tamed in the Convention, have given me the nomination. Richmond foresaw the contingepcy which there arose, and hence urged more strenuously that the State Convention should appoint the delegates to Baltimore instead of remitting the choice to the several Congressional districts. My friends composed two-thirds of the State Convention, and there was nothing inconsistent with the usages of the party or unusual in what he recommended. Still I was averse to it, knowing I should have a majority of the delegation. He persisted, and while his arguments had great force, I reluctant ly declined his proposition. He urged that a division among tbe delegates wpuld be fatal to me; that in order to secure support from other States I must command the undivided vote of New York. But Beardsley and Dickinson would oppose my nomination, and with effect, alleging that I could not carry my own State; whereas, if our delegation acted as a unit, no such pretences could be set up. The results vindicated the sagacity of Dean Richmond. In lact, his foresight and penetration were rarely at fault. I never knew a safer adviser or a more far-seeing politician."

That was the beginning of it. After that it went straight on. Sally «was as well-behaved a woman as ever I met, otherwise ; and she kept her face, covered up in her sun-bonnet, and mostly her chin tied up in her handkerchief too, in a way forward pieces don't often do. A pretty face she had too—pretty enough for "a woman of her age. But it was as plain as a pikestaff to me that she had fallen in love with Mr. Skiver. From that time up till 5:30, bustle and commotion and high jinks in the cooking line reigned supreme in the trim little ▼ilia. And when the appointed hour eame, it was with an exultant, albeit a slightly flashed face (at the thought»of the gastronomic triumph in store for the old and true friend" whom her husband was to bring home), that Arabella ran to the daor to answer her husband'e knock.

Fight Between Two Chinamen' Thi Flea.—When a flea, under a miorosoope, is made to appear as large as an •lephant, we can see all the wonderful parte of its formation, and are astonished to find that it has a coat of armor much more complete than ever warrior wore, and composed of strong, polished plates, fitted over each other, each plate covered like a tortoise-shell, and where they met hundreds of small quills project like those on the back of a porcupine or hedgehog. There are the arched neck, the bright eyes, the transparent cases, piercers to puncture the skin, a sucker to draw away the blood, six long-jointed legs, four of which are folded on the breast, all ready, at any moment, to be thrown out with tremendous force for that jump which bothers one when they want to catch him, and at the end of each leg hooked claws, to enable him to cling on whatever ho alights upon. A flea can jump a hundred times his own length, which is the same as if a man jumped over five hundred feet; and he can draw a load two hundred times his own weight. A fight at Virginia, Montana, between two Chinamen named Mun Gee and Ching Ho, is thus described by the Montanian: "Throwing aside their outer garments, and each armed with a huge knife and an ugly looking hatchet, they laced each other for the fray—the women meantime viewing the prepara'tions with unconcern. For a moment they staged at each other like wild beasts over disputed prey, and then sprang forward with uplifted weapons. In the first onslaught Ho's nimbleness of foot saved him, for stepping quickly to one side, the hatchet of Mnn Gee cleft nothing but air, and Ho buried the blade of his tomahawk in the cheek of his unwieldy adversary. AVithdrawing it he stepped back into position. Howling vengeance, and with a torrent of blood gushing from his frightful wound, Gee rushed upon his man, and with a dexterous blow, which would have been fatal had it reached its mark, laid a three-cor nered piece of Ho's ear on the floor, end received in return an ugly gash in the right shoulder from Ho's knife. Gee was now bleeding freely, and with the ebbing of the crimson tide oozed his strength and discretion. He fought wildly, while his wily antagonist rained his hatcliet blows fast and sure, cutting Gee in a terrible manner about the face, hands and neck. At last, as Gee endeavored to grapple his opponent, he received a deadener under the right .ear from Ho's hatchet. Ho, fearing.arrest, fled. About this time the police arrived upon the scene. - Gee was put in his bed and a physician summoned. Although horribly mutilated Gee may possibly recover. The wound in the neck is not deep, and the jugular vein was missed. The section of his left ear is the only relic the authorities have of Ho, and even that will be relinquished to the rnedcal faculty on application."

Alice was carrying a baby along the sidewalk, and passed Willie, who was playing marbles alone. She remarked the marbles looked like hers, and picked one up. The boy became enraged, ran into the yard and procured a stick over four feet in length, knotty, and which had been used for beating carpets. Returning, he struok Alioe so severely on the left temple that she dropped the infant from her arms. She suffered severely that day and night, but on the next day (Sunday) attended Sabbath-school.

The Women of Navigator's Island —'The natives are the finest specimens of mankind that have been found in the Polynesian world. They are polite, intelligent and hospitable, and are good Christians ; their language is soft and harmonious. They are renowned for their chastity and moral behavior. They have intelligent and pleasant countenances and modest demeanor, and a most noble carriage of their persons. Many of the females are no darker than a Spanish brunette, are very handsome, with the most symmetrical forms. They have never been drawn up in a machine of torture that was never heard of among all the diabolical inventions of the inquisition—a machine of whalebone and steel, and cord, and pulleys, and levers ; a machine far more ridicilous and mischievous than the iron shoe of China, as the body and vitals of a human being are of more value than the foot. But they stand out in their beatific nudity and loveliness, the emblem of the great Master's handiwork im his happiest mood, a combination of beauty, grace and innocence, which no Christia* can look upon without the deepest sentiments of love and admiration both loward the Creator and the created.—Exchange.

Horses.—When horses have bean fed grain all winter, and have not worked regularly, it not unfrequently happens that they have little appetite as warm weather approaches, and when put to hard work on the farm lose flesh rapidly. They need a change of food. If it is possible, give them a few carrots, or, in the absence of these, a bran-mash, sufficient to relax the bowels. If oats have been fed in the winter, give a little corn in the ear by way of change, varied with " cut feed," consisting of chaffed hay and corn-meal or fine bran, or, better still oatmeal. There is nothing that will fatten a horse so soon as well boiled barley. ■  FOREST HOUSE, VERY best wagons, for both heavy and light work, that can be prodlleedln Ihe state. First class CARRIAGES.
