ter that its climate does not partake of
the seeveriiy of the same paullel in this
country. This coiiiiguity to the sea pre-
serves a more uniform tempermnent than
that of an interior country. The winds
and atorins of the Black Sea are very se-
vere, as was e:-rpericriced on the 19th of

and sleet lllllfl be felt severely by the

Napoleon. _
The third Lecture of the Winter's Course,
before the Ladies Union, was given on Wednes-
dcyflcveniog last, by.-Rev. John.-’Lord. The
Lecture, as it specimen of literary preftines;-,
of profuse, wt-ll_chose,n_ adjectives. would be
dlmcult to_surpn.==-. _At_ Exieytor Hall, in Lon-
don, the sentiments of his discourse would have
brought down the house in uproarousapplause,
but we doubt whether he will ever find an
American audience which can be brought up
‘to the standard ‘of his conclusions.‘ While we
look upon Mr.‘ Lord‘ cu. in rather bold plonecr,
and admire the honest bravery that can face
the popular current of ideas, we cannot admit
as just, all the harsh things said of ‘Napoleon,
much less his flippnnt ' palliation of that most
disgraceful act of treachery, on the part of the
English Government, through which Napoleon
became their prisoner. On the other hand we
cordially approve his scathing criticism of Ab-
bott’s wholesale adulatlons. But the Lecturer
should remember that -‘ there is a fundaraenta
law of Right” which forbids deceit and lying,
as well as robbery. If I1’apo1con’s greatest
sin was the robbery of thrones and dynasties,
against tinned defense, by what. code of morals
can he excuse the British Government. for
stealing him, after he had voluntarily placed
‘himself on board one of their national vessels
as an exile, and claiming their hospitality.-—
Whatever record history bears of the atrocities
of "1\’npolt=on-'~a wars, none so .=hami=-ful aiid des-
titute of all honor, can anywhere he found, as
the breach of hospitality on board the {failure-
yphon. Long will the eloquent reply of Napo-
leon to his captors cause ii. blush of shame to
mantle the cheek of évery true friend of Eng-
land, as they contemplate this act of perfidy :—
“I am the guest of England, not her prison-
er. I have come, of my own accord, to place
myself under the protection of the British law.
In my case the government has violated the
laws of its own country, the law of nations,
and the sacred duty of hospitality. _I protest
against their right to not thus, and appeal to
British honor.” ,

So long as they do this, and make out to
l’i’l.'¢, it matters little whether or not they
receive their just dues. But the adop-
tion of the cash principle in this State the
coming year will work-an improvement
alike beneficial to publishc? and patron.
"The amount of subscriptions for. the
past year, even after deducting the loss
on exchanges, and on the probable two
or tlireehundred poor subscribers on our
list, is more than $3000. Our receipts
since the first of January, 1854. up to
last Saturday night amounted to $1499,-
36, or just 64 cents less than one-half
that sum, leaving the other half of our
collectable subscription dues for the year
still unpaid at the beginning of this last
month of the year. \Ve pay out in cash
for paper, work, &c., over 82000, as the
smallest possible expense of publishing
our paper, leaving us minus, as the case
now stands, nearly $500, in the amount
actually paid out in carrying on our es-
talillsliinetit."

he has 9. large depot: his agents there supply

tisements are published in most of the papers
at Sydney, Hobart Town, Launceslon, Ade-

town of that vast portion of the British Em-
pire. Returnlng bomewards, we find his Pills
‘and Ointment selling at Valparaiso, I.-iniii,

‘tising in those parts in Spanish and Portu-
guese. In all the British West India Islands,
as also in the Upper and Lower Canadas, and
the neighboring provinces of Nova Scotia and
New Brunswick, his medicines are as familiar-

In the Meditterranean we find
them selling at Malta, Corfu, Athens, and Al-
exandria, besides at Tools and other portions
of the Barbary States. Any one taking the
trouble to look at the Journal and Courier of
Constantinople, may find in these, as well as
other papers, that Holloway’s medicines are
regularly advertised and selling throughout
the Turkish empire , and even in Russia,
where an almost insurmountable barrier exists
the laws there prohibiting the entree ~01‘ pat-
ent medicines, Hollowc‘y’s ingenuity has been
at work, and obviates this difficulty by forwar-
ding supplies to his agent at Odessa, ii port
situated on the Black Sea, where they filter
themselves surreptitiously by various chan-
nels, into the very heart of the empire. Af-
rica has not been forgotten by this indefatiga-
gable man, who has an agent on the river
Gambia: also at Sierra Leone, the plague
spot of‘ the woiia, the inhabitants i-eiiaiiy
avail themselves of the Ointment and Pills,
thus we can show our readers that Holloway
has made the complete circuit of the globe,
commencing with India, and ending as we do,
with the Cape of Good Hope, where his medi-
cine: are published in the Dutch and English
langiioges,iind while speaking of Dutch. We
have heard that he has made large shipments
to Holland, and is about advertising in every
paper or periodical published in that kingdom
we might add that he has also started his med-
icine in some parts of France; in some por-
tlons of Germany ; as also in some of theIta1-
icn States.” ‘
& His tnetilcines are also to be found 35.-
vertised in, almost every paper on the Ameri-
can Continent, and his medicines found in al-
most every drug store ln the land. Papers
printed in every language and tongue under
heaven, are to be found regularly filed in his

and others in England, are cordially invited

two children of \Vm Day, Danbury,
were put to bed last Saturday night, in
a room heated by charcoal in an open
vessel. Before the hour for retiring of
the family they were startled by sounds
of agony proceeding from the room occu-
pied by their children, and upon hasten-

focated by the poisonous gas. By this
timely rescue, and ii vigorous application
of restoratives, they were both saved from
a horrible death.

the Writer (tvfio’5igns himself Spec-in.

the article with iuiu"sual interest, from
the fact that I saw the operatioric of the
search Rom bcgiiiiiiiig to and tliercof.——
And on reading Spa.-r=tator".s article in the
' Farmer, I found it very much like the
handle of El jug, all upon one side. I
found also, that Spectator was not. very
particular about telling the truth, feven
when it would have served his purpose
best. That, however, is not a very
strange circunistance, since it is a well
known facratliat the truth is an entire
ctranger to some people, and‘,-for might I
know, Spectator may be one of the
number. C
1st Spectator says that the rational
portion of the people of New Canaan,
thought it most strange that tbe’l.:e§isia-
ture of the State should pass a law that
needed the aid of ii Carson League to
enforce it. A slight mistake, friend
Spectator; the most raiionalarid far-
some of his particular friends, who
though they dared not openly violate the
law, yet would have no objections to
smuggling the article in the market,
therefore rational men prepared for it,
of wealthy homes, and awake many
from apathy and indifference. An-.l
those now give who never gave bet‘-cure. l

Again Spectator says,tliat on the eve-
ning cf the 29th of November, between
the hours of 9, and 10, a sheriff and his
posse surrounded. and entered the house
of one Butts, the lower part of which
was occupied by one Charles Osborne,
and had been used as a tavern previous
to the time the Maine Law came into
operation, but since that time had been
used by Osborne as a boarding house.
is is true that a sheriff and his posse

Aigaln, Spectator says, that wlisn the
Sheriff entered the house he forbid eve-
ry person found there to leave it. It is
enough to say, that that assertion has
not one word of truth in ii. 4
Spectator scknoairlsd-gerfthat the st..-:i-
ifi found, and seized what was said to
be brandy, wliat was ti-iougiit to he St.
Croix rum, and a bottle of horse predi-
cine; (wonder if it had ever been pat-

and a little spirits in it, {only 2*. very lee-

else could see any herhsiii ilic bottle,

The reader will remember that Sper-
tatnr said that house was owned by one
Butts, but was occupied by Mr. 05-
borne for aboardirig-liouse. He sayszhc
-‘Ii/Iver rooms.’ ’
The writer of this article would like
very-much to know whether Mr.‘ Os-
borne's boarders sleep on the floor of the
bar-room, in the cellar, or stairway-—
he saw no other place there, and would
wish to be excused from sleeping in
either place. VVonder which one he
uses for his dining room '? I had sup-,
posed the dining-room and sleepi'iig'-
apartments were up on the net: 1300 F.
