The late Mr. Thacksray had a nose of most peculiar shape. Tho bridge was very low, and the nostrils extrenioly well developed. On one occasion, at a party where Douglass Jerrnld was present, it was mentioned that Mr.: Thackeray's re ligious opinions were unsettled,! and that a lady of bis acquaintance waa doing her best to convert him to Romanism. "To Romanism 1" exclaimed Jerrold. "Let us hope she'll begin with the nose." The great American game of draw po ker, played by an American, coat the king of Wurtembnrg 40,000 florins recently.

' Dr. Porter, in bis oration at the Mason ic celebration in New York on Wednesday, very happily characterized the order as one that was "neither sectarian; political, nor national, and was yet both patriotic and religious. Free Masonary, as is well known, includes Mohammedans, Christians and Jews, and presents the most universal of unions that the world haa yet seen. Its elementary principles are intelligible to the merest tyro, while its complicated symbolism presents scope enough for the exercise of the highest order of miifd. The health of J. Edgar Thomson, is re ported to be so precarious as to compel him to reliugulsh In a good degree - the arduous duties of President of the Penn sylvania Central Railroad Company. It is reported also, that in view of Mr. Thomson's impaired health, the question ol successor in Ms important othoe is considerably canvassed. The names of three or four gentleman - aro tree! y men tioned in this connection, i but . the popular expectation seems to be that CoL Scott, the able and active first vice-President, will succeed Mr. Thomson. A Boston paper speaks thns of a young actress : "Miss Minnie Wells is a buxom western girl, utterly new to the stage. She dances a hornpipe tolerably well, does the Vincent Crummies broadsword business respectably, and can . play tbo banjo." During Mr. Cox's remarks oa the cur rency bill, in the national house of rep resentatives, on Tuesday, a laughable scene occurred. Mr. Cox said that, to his ears, and to those of the Democratic party, the words "Gold and silver were as the sweetest music." At this point Gets, from the Berks county (Pennsylvania) district, passed over to the speaker and jiugled good-humoredly in his face two shiuing twenty-dollar gold pieces. Cox, thanking Getz for the dramatio effect which he had given bis speech, took the money, and, holding each piece in either hand, showed it as Democratic money, to which, said he, we must soon return money which the irood dames of Berks county and of the entire state of Penn sylvania had bidden away in shot-bags and stockings. At the conclusion of Mr. Cox's remarks, Paine, a Republican member - from Wisconsin, openly presented him with a beautiful bouquet of flowers. accompanied by a few words of compli ment. ' YOUNG CKSPEDK. The Son of tbo Cabaa Preaioeat Shot by Order of Ibo Caplaia Ueaeral. Havana, June 4, 1870. Oscar Ces pedes, the son of the Cuban chief executive, has been put to death by bis Spanish captors. A ' dispatch from Captain General Rodas announces the execution of the unlucky young man at Puerto Principe, on the 31st. Ho was shot arid not garroted, as he would most assuredly have been bad he been sent to Havana, as the volunteers hoped aud ex pected. There are no further particulars of tho execution at band, and In their ab sence I venture to give a very brief ac count of his capture. This was accomplished through the treachery of a couple of negroes who deserted tne insurgents, and present ing themselves to the bpaniards informed them that young Cespedos waa at the Caridad stockfarin, and agreed to pilot a strong bpauish column to the place. Night-time was selected for the expedition, and by a forced march, aud through the able pilotage of the two negroes, the Spaniards reached the farm at 2 a.m. ihe insurgents were only partly surprised, one or two of their pickets giving the alarm time enough for most of them to effect their escape from the overnum boring Spaniards. Seven of the most tardy and slow in leaving were captured, however, and among them was Oscar Ces pedes. His companions in misfortune were, at once shot, but hs was reserved to bear evidence to the success of the expe dition in Puerto Principe, there to be finally shot, as stated. Sixteen Cubans ladies aud children were also taken bv the Spaniards upon the farm, aud against their will were sent to Puerto Principe. louug L.espeoes was zi years old When executed, having been born in Bayaiuo in May, . . ISniKIKB DECEPTION. A Heartless Vmu at West Poiat Baia of m Ceaaaiat Yf Diss. Frem tao World. , I never come to West Point but I am reminded of a young officer a surgeon whom I met some years ago on the Mexican steamer plying between San Francisco and Maratlan, - He told me this singular story late one night on the hurricane deck, off the coast of Lower California. He bad been a West Pointer, and graduated with honor, i A year before bis graduation be fell recklessly in love with a girl about his own age, with whom be corresponded for six months. At the end of that time she promised to marry him. , The correspondence continued; during the next annual examination (when he graduated) she visited West Point, as usual, with her mother, remaining until after the distribution of diplomas,, and treating him on two occasions when he waa abbs to meet her with all tlie signs of affection. She suffered hint to kiss her when they were alone, walked with him, and, thongb evading the special topic of their promised marriage, received his devotion as a matter of eourse and without an attempt to check it. ' He met her the third time on one of the public walks, within an hour or. two after receiving his diploma. ' She was leaning on the arm of a gentleman considerably oiaer man nerseir, wnom, bowing witn her customary enchanting smile, she introduced to her cadet lover as her husband! I My steamer acquaintance, who looked, when I encountered him away off there ou the coast of Mexico, much the worse for dissipation and wear, told me that that was too much for him, and lost his legs and his seuses in the midst of her response, which was burst of mocking laughter. He was picked up by some of his coin pan ions,and taken to the barracks.Temporary pride and pluck saved bim from an immediate term of sickness. He begged for a far western assignment, got it, and throwing up his furlough, loft at once for his regiment. Since thon he had led a dishonorable life, which I shall not shock the reader as he did me by the recital of. Having been ignominiously tried and convicted out of the United States army years before, bo was now on his way to seek service under Maximilian. I never heard of him after I left Mazatlan, and certainly I hope never to bearwoman-kind at large, or any oue woman, blasphemed in praise so malignant as that with which, on the steamer's deck that night, this complete ruin of an officer and a gentleman (as I believe him to have been) cursed the sex and the coquette who had so cruelly deceived him. . UNION OP THB OCEANS. Bostoa aaa Saa Fraaciaco Miaa-le ia a Em Daaee Soatethiai Like a " 8pree. The ceremony at San Francisco of unit ing the waters of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, performed by the Boston Board of Trade excursionists, is thus described in a telegram to the Boston Journal: The bottle of water taken from the Atlantic, at Boston, was uncorked by Hon. Alex. 11. Rice, the president of the Boston party, and one-half its contents Soured into the Pacific ocean, making, as r. Rice said, " a literal bleuding of the waters of the two oceans, which should flow on together until there shall be no more sea, and symbolizing a .unity of the people of America in ties of interest aud brotherhood which shall continue until the last wave of time shall break upon the eternal shore." The space in the bottle was then filled with water from the Pacific Ocean, and its contents will be taken home by the Boston ians. as the mingled elements of the Atlantic and Pacific The party then formed a.circle on the veranda of the Cliff House, a Californian and a - Bostonian alternating, and tho bottle of mingled water, as an emblem of a : blended friendship, was passed through the entire circle, from hand to band, and the company united in singing "America." A most interesting cere- money followed. A little daughter (two year of age) of Mr. R. G. Brown, of San Francisco, was pressent, and having never been christened it was suggested on a moment's thought, that the holy rite should bo administeied. A table was brought out and covered with the national flag and a large silver basin containing water from both oceans; when, amid a stillness disturbed oidy by the surging of the sea, the parents stepped forward with the little child in its mother's arms, and the Rev. Mr. Water- i of the Boston party, with great beauty and solemnity, administered the rite of Baptism. The entire audience immediately burst forth in singing the Doxology, to the tune of "Old Hundred.' PBEB LOVE. The Ejateat Ie velopaaeat of the Aalai. tie A - Radical Seaator roaapro- Baiaeo. A divorce case is at present making a great deal of excitement in Syracuse, N. Y. One of the wealthiest merchants in this city haa brought an action to annul the marriage contract between himself and bis wife, a buxom innocent of about forty years of age. The allegations are perfectly frightful, and extend over a long period. They involve Campbell, of the Parepa opera troupe, whose heart. it is said, has been "bowed down" to the defendant in the divorce case on several occasions. There is a United States sen ator in the muss, too some say Matt. Carpenter, aud some say Zack Chandler. Ho is a Radical any way. They met last summer at a watering place, and discov ered, each in the other, an "aflmity." The lady is asrreat admirer of the Tribune, and reads it daily. The free love doc- trinra nf that able and most moral ionr- nal is said to delight her. She likes Beecher and Frothiiigham, of course, and thinks Mrs. Mcr arland (poor woman !) was "only imprudent." Tho "injured hus band has an income of about lorty thou sand dollars a year. Iwo promising children one a young lady will be made to suffer shame by this scandalous affair. CHINESE IMMIGRANTS.

She came from Hong Kong. She bad, at starting, one hundred and eiguty-six Chinamen, but twenty died on the pas- saire: the remaining oue hundred and sixty-six were generally in good health and spirits.

The statement is aa'fplloWs : "It was arraying that Mr. Dawes,: of j Massachusetts, in the bouse not a free-trader and Mr. Trumbull in the senate, should introduce a bill continuing the joffic of special revenue commissioner. A canvass of both bouses showed that Such, a bill would pass. When Mr. Wells beard of tins movement, he thought -it -respectful to the President to mention it to him, and to ascertain whether Geh. Grant desired or not to have the office continued;' Tile President's reply was thattheset tetary of the treasury was very mncb Opposed to the renewal of the office, and iliiit the , President did not, in such a matter, choose ' to disagree with the secretary.- j He preferred, therefore, not to have the office continued.

Some months ago, however, it offered, a . prize to 'students for the greatest number of accepted clinical reports, one "M. M. W." carried off the honors. Of the result the Gazette says: "Those of our readers who have noticed the clearness and succinctness of the articles published under . these 1 initials, will perhaps be as much surprised . as we lately were ourselves to learn that they indicate a woman's name, that of Mrs. Melissa M. Webster, M. 1. a recent graduate of the Woman's Medical college, of Pennsylvania." ;' i Thb sales of wheat in the Sew York market for three days last week have reached the large aggregate of 600,000 bushels a quantity exceeding the receipts at the same time at the lake ports. The demand bas been mainly for export, though of course the millers have been liberal buyers; and a business so largely in excess of expectations has naturally developed some speculations. There are some unlookedfor phases to the market. Liverpool has shown great strength, because she has been getting very little wheat. The rise which took place in the New York market in the middle of May brought shipments hence nearly to a standstill. A demand of unusual pre portions has appeared from the continent, and Liverpool is actually shipping wheat to markets whence she has been accustomed to draw supplies. i ' ' At a circus performance in Liberty, Mo., on Wednesday, Professor White en tered the den of lions, and was "quickly very glad to be hauled out .again. One of the lions, it seems, had conceived a dislike to White, and at once made for him, crushed one of his arms, bit a piece out of his side, and altogether grieved him very much. i Heavy snow storms are reported In Montana. Tho weather in Nebraska has been extremely cold for the . last few weeks, much to the injury of the corn crop. Small grains are looking finely.
