 ,Noturat Cuaiosity.-We have this morning been shown hy Mir. Grant Ihorburn, oEe of the most striking na- tural curiosiiies that we eyersaw. It is turnip, raised ir Minden, Connecti- cut, which resembles mans hand so closely as to siartle the beholder as ifs nnFolled from the paper in which # is wrapped. The fingers are nearly per feet, as akoin the thumb, sase that itls withered little since it was taken from the ground. The fingers are also pro perl} shaped, and lifted to each other even 10 the natural crook of the little finger. It is really wonderful pro duction. Mir. Thorhurn gayesilye dol iars for iti-V. '.

 Plot at Mauiuique.- The Port of Spain Gazette of October 9th, contains letter from Martinique of 27th Sept which states that plote had been dls- covered among the negroes ln that is' and, for murdering the whites, when Was to have been executed on St. bar tholomew's eve. The government would adopt measures to guard agaiIla It's efieots.-N. '. Standard.
 
 SINcuLAR.-The Eastern Centlnei relates the following :--'sThe eitlze0, of Allentown were very much startled and surprised Ii few Sundays ago Dy strange occurrence which happened a' the Lutheran Church at that place. V hlle the Rev. Mir. Ycager was abou, administering the sacrament, and naa Just left the pulpit to come down 10 '0s altar for that purpose, two large n'aeA snakes emerged from the wall, and u'' seen by the congregation below eo'r menccnced gamboling and chasing eaea other upon the top of the sounding board {as it is called) which pfcJee'' over the pulpit. Those persons vllg Z were in the gallery had q fair view Q. them, and observed that they did not retire until the communion was oser.-, Afterservicc, the place was examlreo' and a hole found which, to judge iron it's size, must apparently have causea considerable compression before li ao' mitted of the animals passage. Ho" the snakes could have made their way through comparatively new watt ' , such height, remains still q mystery.
