Britain and America,
The subjoined bit of poetry, by the Rev. S. Bullfinch, of Mass. waa suggested hy the conduct of
Commodore Tatnali and his men at the battle of
Peiho.    Blackwood's Magazine says :
"There is an Interesting episode in the narrative
s of fjbe fight on the Peiho. During the thick of
tlie Sght an American boat visited one of our vea
eels, uml, on wishing lo leave her, tlie olileor lb mid
all of his men had gone out of the boat. Alter
some delay they were found looking very hot.
smoke-begrimmed and lightish. 'Halloa, sirs.'said
the officer, with assumed -severity, ; don't you
kno*ff that we are neutrals?' 'Beg pardon.' said
the gallant fellows, looking very bashful) ' they
were shortbanded at tbe bow gun, and so we
gived them a help for fellowship sake." They had
been hard at it for an hour.''
Tatnall, in justifying his men to his Government,
wrote: "Blood is thicker than water—aye, than
ink either ;" meaning that the British and Americans are brothers, and must as-ist each other iu
times of emergency, no matter if treaties do stand
in the way :
Hear what the gallant Tu1.:ili11 said
At the mouth of the Chinese river.
When through Asian balls and English dead,
He pressed on to deliver.
His starry flag to each English heart
Flasb'd hope-through the darkening slaughter
And his words, as he play'd his manly part,
Were—"Blood is thicker than water!"
"Land of our sires, the strife is o'er,
That armed us against each other ;
We give thee Ihe homage of sons no more,
But tbe love of a free-born brother.
We bid thee hail ! as the noblest State
And peace be within thy borders !
"Hear it, proud realm nf the grey old past,
From our young land of the present ;
Let the words ring forth like a trumpet blast.
Our greeting to prince and fo peasant!
And if wrathful thoughts again are stirred,
Ere we rush lo fraternal slaughter,
Let the madness cease at the homely word,
Tbat 'Blood is thicker than water.'

Fighting for Pny.
The last Army Register, transmitted from the
War Department to the House of Representatives
bos just been printed, and our copy of it is now
be lore us. As those who are iamiliar with the
document are aware, it sets fourth minutely the
name, pay and perquisites of each officer of the
army. Thus we are furnished with an insight into
the pecuniary compensation received for mak
au every day business of chasing the bubble rep-
uiation at the caution's mouth. The regular saU.
ry ie greatly disproportionate to tbe total amoutit
ot money received, the difference being made up
of trimmings, allowance and supplies of various

From the Louisville Journal,
Young  Joe SinItli.
Young Joe Smith, according to a letter
New York Times, from Am boy, Illinois, dated
April 6th, haa pronounced himself the prophet
and leading man ofthe Mormon Church, and a
conference of "The Saints" held at that place, accepted him in thst char; ctt-r, and he was duly installed into office. The election of young Smith
as President Prophet and the organization of a
church, independentof Ihkt in Utah, will, it ia to
be hoped, go far to eradicate the immoral practices
aud gross licentiousness which have prung up under the usurped authority of Erigham Young.—
The new leader and those who uphold him take
strong grounds against polygamy and the other
errors into which the Utah church has fallen.—
Smith in his address ou the occasion of his installation, mid :
'"My desire is to come to you teaching 3113b doctrines as all must feel to be and accept as true doc
trines; the doctrines of religion and morality.
" I hold in entire abhorrence many of the doctrines preached and promulgated by Erigham
Young. I have been told that my father promtit
gated these same ■ doctrines—the doctrines ol
Young. This I never did believe, and never can
believe it, for tbe doctrines were not promulgated
by divine authority ; and I believe that my father
was a good man, and no good man could have promulgated such odious doctrines.
"I believe in the unity of the church, in truth
and honesty, and all these I find in the Bible and
in the-'Book of Mormon." and in the 'Book of
Doctrines and Covenants," which latter bookB are
but auxiliaries to the first.
" I cannot find such doctrines as ore promulgated in Utah in the  book wherein I believe, and so
odioue are thore doctrines lo inu, tbat lbo lime who
when I held in view of becoming the head of the
church in utter abhorrence, so much was this eo.
So repulsive was the very idea, lhat it did not
seem to me that I could take the position wbich
my father held upou himself. The idea that X was
to assume the headship of the church, however^
came slowly upon me. I resolved many works up
on the suljt'Ct and many writings, but these I have
avoided the resdiag of (or fear lhat they should
influence me to Bome wrong action, or that I
should be biased in my judgment in relation to
to the truth of the revelatiou ol God or the truth
in the church. The course I determined to pursue was to do right,
* « * * * *
" I believe that a man owes duties to the country iu which he lives—that be is amenable to the
laws of his land, and that he is liable to bave that
duty enforced upon him by those laws, and I say
that Mormons can so act tbat they shall have as
many friends as the people of any sect, I have always resided among the people of Hancock comity, who are strong anti-Mormons, and I have never
kuown that I bad an enemy. I have been engaged with anti-Mormons. I have mingled with them,
and'have never made an enemy, although I have
often found it necessary, not only uot to give ol
fence by remarks of my own, but also to smothe
my own feeling, when I have heard the remarks
which ofhers made. I hold no feeling of enmity
towards any  man living who has fought this doc

tion of baggage $789 75. He is by great odds
the best paid man of all. The other officers seem
to receive less iu proportion. Brigadier Gen. Harney gets as pay §1,240; but he was allowed for
transportation ot baggage $1,195 90, which is
about $400 more thau the Major General received
so that he must have had a much larger amount
of plunder cr else traveled much more than tbe
commanding officer. His total allowance was $5,-
4S9 09. Geu. Twiggs received more for bis servants than Geueral Scott did; his total was $8,-
459 8^- tbat oi Gen Wool was $5,806 16. The
pay of Surgeons, who enable the others, by retaining life and limb, to earn their money, is i960,
but their perquisites are from two three times that
amount. Col. Totton -of the Engineer corps, is
down for $1,320 pay and an aggreate of $3,639,
and Col. Abeit, of the Topographical corps, lor
the same pay, and an aggregate of $4,460 59.—
There does not appear to be any captain of dragoons, cavalry, muunled rillemen, or artillery, who
received altogether as much as three thousand dollars during the year, aud but four 0! all the captains among the ten regiments of infantry exceed
that amount. This document furnishes much information to those interested iu theperionelle of
the army. It isquite evident tbat the compensation paid by the government for military services
cannot, by any means, be deemed extravagant.—
Promotion is sbw on a peace establishment; much
ot the frontier service is extremely laborous ; and,
unless we can, get up an international war with
England, for the refusal of the belt of lleetian,
there seems but little prospect of winning the prizes of glory by real fighting.— Philadelphia Inquirer.
This movement may prove the solution of the
important Mormon problem. Young Smith has
long been expected to assume tbe Presidency, and,
haviug consented, be now proposes to send missionaries to Utah to show the errors into which
tbe church has been betrayed, and to induce tbe
Mormons, if possible, to conform to the original
doctriues of their creed. It will doubtless prove
Young to"yield' up^is power, ana miu-Jur'sri'im
depVavtd course, and the missionaries may fare as
badly with Young's Danites as our Christian minis have done among the South Sea Islanders.
Young lias a strong bold on the people of Utah,
and generally carries his measures with a high
d, With some six hundred unscrupulous myrmidons, steeled to crime and com rolled by the will
of tbeir own leader, he may be able to resist the
attempt at proselytism on the plan of Joe Smilh,
and we do not, as yet, know how strong in num
hers are those, or what their standing, who have
nvested the son of the founder of Mormonism
with the mantle of his father. But the event must
be regarded as one ef great importance, as it may
be tbe means of aiding onr Federal Government
their efforts to suppress polygamy.

Lbap Year.—The year 1860. is " Leap Year,"
and consists of 366 days, one day being added to
the shortest month, February, which will, therefore, have twentv-uine days this year; and on its
last, or additional day, is claimed by tne iatn.es a
privilege which belongs at all other times to the
gentlemen—the privilege of "popping the question." Leap year oceuis every fourth year, aud is
so called because it leaps over a day more than
does au ordinary year. For instance, if Christ
mas day or New Year's day fall on a Sunday, it
will (all on Monday the following year; but in
Leap Ytar it will fall on Tuesday, being thus two
days later in Hie week, instead of oue. The necessity for Leap year arises from fhe fact that (lie solar year does not corrwspond exactly with tlie civil
year, in consequence of its not ending exactly
wiih a given day, but with a fraction of a day.—
If it were not for this arrangement. Christmas,
in cour.-e of time, would be in midsummer, and
the Fourth of July in tne depth of winter. The
true year consists ofthe time it, takes for the earth
to make one revolution around the sun, which is
determined by its coming back to the same point
in the zodiac from which it started ; and this is
accomplished in 365 days and nearly six hours;
but as the calendar must consist ui complete days,
these six hours are omitted, and in four years they
make up a whole day, when one is added to the
year, making what is called a Leap Year. This,
however, is not strictly correct, for it is *>sc'!riain-
ed hy accurate calculations that a solar year is exactly 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 57.7 shc-
onds ; consequently, in putting ou the six hours,
we add 11 minutes 12.4 seconds in four years.—
This in the course ot 148i years would amount to
twenty four hours, or a complete day. Every
year tlie number is devisable ny four without a
remainder iu a Leap Year, except the lust year of
the century, whieh is a Leap Year only when
d visible by 400 without a remainder. Thus the
year 1900 will not be Leap Year.
" Listi*;nehs HkAH NO Good," -fcc.—At a masked
ball which Louis Napoleon attended in disguise,
he was made lo bear rather unpleasant truths.—
Both the ladies who spoke tbem were foreigners.
The first dialogue was as lollows : "Do you go lo

indeed. 1 should think not! Who that belongs to
society would go to such a place?" The second
mishap was this : A very pretty, silly lady fell in
with a domiuo, who amused tier, and she asked
him who he was. '"I am tlie Emperor.'-'said the
domino.    ''Oh, impossible!" said   the lady; ''the

supposed her hidden companions face might not
be ugly, too, I am at a loss to guess. The domino
continued : 'What, then, you don't think the Emperor good looking?'' "Good-looking?" retorted
the fair one, 'T think him dreadfully ugly!"—
The domiuo declined any further colloquy, and
glided away. "What were you saying to ihe Emperor?" asked M. de Moruy, a minute alter, of
the lady. She stood aghast (I told you she was
silly,) and could not believo her ears when ber

Intportoat to Wool Grwwein.
The following paragraphs are tak»n from tbe
Mercantile Gazette Sf Shipping Register of Sao
Francisco :
" A serious objection to tbe successful culture
of wool in this State has lately been discovered in
the "clover bur," or hull ofthe native clover,
with which much of the clip is so impregnated as
to materally prejudice ita uiarket lalae. The
plant is a great favorite with the animal, and
forms during the greater portion of the year, ita
prion pal subsistence. Tho clover is spread
throughout all the sheep raising counties in the
State south of the bay of Sao Francisco, and nine-
tenths of the flocks raised in California are subject
to a damage for which no remedy has yet been.
suggested.
Parties concerned iu tbe wool trade inform us
that a difference of quite 4 ceutB per pound, and
New York market against wool infested with this
nuisance. When we consider tbat no means have
been discovered to eradicate the bur by machin-
and that tbe market value of our wool is thus
usly prejudiced, it becomes a matter to the
growers to devise-some remedy agaiust an injury
of such an important character."
We have seen but one remedy suggested as yet,
and that, iu connection with the paragraphs quoted above. It is to shear at as early a period aa
can be ventured upon without risk to Ihe flock.—
The rationale of the above is given 11s follows:
*' The bur, so called, is the seed of the clover
that ripens in May. The seeds are about tbe size
of a pepper-grain, and have been hitherto but
slightly regarded by most buyers in their selection of wool, It has a peculiar fibrous consistency, which unwinds aud breaks up in the process of
manufacturing, impregnating the fabric, while
from its prickly outer conformation, machinery
fella to extract it. The clover ripens in May, and
tbe bur is most noxious in shearing time. It attaches itself to the wool of the animal while the
latter is lyiug down to test, and once there tho
damage is done. We learn that it is the intentiou
of several largo wool-growers to test the efficacy
of early shearing, the present season. It is alleged that the burs will be less likely to adhere
to tbe animal after shearing, and prior to the next
season will have beoqme so loosened aud worn ofF
. to obviate the difficulty now complatued of,"
Girls EuNKiNCf off with £ToB8BS,— A correspondent of tbe Marysvi/le Appeal, writing from
Chicago, Butte County, says:
"A very singular occurrence took place here
on Saturday last. A woman, whose name I am
unacquainted with, started from near Marysville,
