f, A LEcHY ExPERMENr.-During the
severe frost which took place about four
months ago, lively lass who bad been
married about a year and half before to
a young farmer on the borders of Rodney
marsh, was much scsndalized at her hu'
bands going too often 10 the public hous,
and staying too late when he was there
Several little conjugal approximations hav.

lively. that If il occurred sgsin, she would

! following expedient to get it he took
possession of one Of the Converts, got
hold of The wardrobe ofthe friars, dres.
sed his officers and some Of the sol.
diers in it, and early in the morning
/ had the bells rung for mass. People
delighted at having again an opportuni.
| ty of adoring the Supreme Being, flock :
ed to the church where he was, and
after the House was pretty well filled,
his friars showed their side arms and
bayonets from beneath their cowls and
closed the doors upon the assembled
multitude. AT this unexpected denoue-
ment there was tremendous Shrek
ing, when one of his officers assembled
the pulpit and told the people that
he was in want of $4,000 and must
have it. He finally succeeded in get
ting about $500, when he dismissed
the congregation.
As sample of Santa Annals pious
whms we relate the following:
In the same campaign of Oxaca,
Santa Anna and his officers were be-
selged by Rlncon who commanded the
government troops. Santa Anna was
in a convent surrounded by small
breastwork. Some OF the officers one
night TO amuse themselves, took the
wooden saints out OF the church, and
placed them as sentries, dressed in
uniforms, on the breast works Rim
con alarmed on the morning at this APP
parent boldness, began TO fire away at
the wooden images, supposing them to
be flesh and blood, and it was not till
after some OF the officers who were not
in the secret had implored Santa Anna
to prevent this dissertation that the fl.
ring ceased.
Many similar facts are related of
Santa Anna. We have not room at
present to say more than there is no
man who has filled the space he has
that is so little understood. In short,
he is all things to all men.-E. Star.

Green This Stone we have frequently
heard spoken of, and tradition and popu-

antidote to the bite Of rabid animals. IL

CfchnSI0httG Ertdefce,-- he Hollow
ing facts derived from a Philadelphia pa.
per, shew how careful we should be in
making charges. particularly where life
and character are at stake, upon mere
circumstantial evidence. A Mrs. Bridget
kilIbridge applied TO Alderman Bryant of
Philadelphia, for warrant to arrest DR.,
Sleigh, his wife and two sons, for the
murder Of her sister, Ann Moran, whom
they had murdered, buried and made way
with-so that she could get no tidings
from her. Her sister had lived with DR..
Sleigh as domestic; was very much de.
pressed last week when she called 10 see
her. and observed she was very mnch a
fraid and unhappy she said the Doctor
had drawn off the fsstnings of her bed
room door, aud she was afraid they would
murder her for the purpose Of dssecting
her, as the sons were medical Students
She called some days back TO make en-
quiries relative to her sister, when she
was told that she had left the house, and
they knew nothing of her. having left with
out saying a word /; she then asked TO go
up into her chamber, and wished a hight,
the candle they refused, but allowed her
10 go up stairs, where she saw her sisters
clothes but observed no E5ed-- bot sac
was convinced OF the murder BY the draw
ing Of the bolt Of the door, which her sis-
ter complained of, aud man who works
for the Doctor knew that the day before
her sister disappeared, that she bad some
"words with the Doctor" A warrant was
granted, and the officers and Mr.. Ola.
"a proceeded to the house Of the Doctor.
and commenced searching in every hole
and corner for the body-one commenced
digging in the cellar s. yard with spade.
Mrs. Sleigh and the family were alarmed,
attempted 10 prove their innocence, but
were charged as murderers and arrested.
1t appeared that the lost girl had been
in the habit Of sitting up in bed to read,
The Doctor bad frequently talked to her
about it, and fearful that some night the
house might catch fire by her falling to
sleep, took the bolt of the door. SO in
case of accident he might more easily gain
admittance 10 her room. But taking the
latch off her door had created horrible
suspicious IN the mind Of the girl, thinking
they wished TO murder her and take her
body for dissection. She had mentioned
these facts TO her sister, and begged 10
case Of sudden or mysterious disap
pearance, that she would bring her mnr-
derers 10 justice. They parted. when IN
two days her sister suddenly disappear
ed, and the Sleigh family not able TO give
any satisfactory Information about her,
Bridget was certain her sister was muir
dered-sh swore 10 it--and the case loo
ked very squalIy for the accused. when
just as the prosecutors closed their evid-
ence the murdered girl made Der appear
ance, alive and well, and explained the
mystery BY saying che had got ns'o
place.

stage was crossing the Allegheny mountains,
way passenger named James DenisOn, sp-
piled for seats for himself and daughter. the
latter entered the stage while the f"Imer took
a seat on the outside, which be- retained until
reaching Mount Pleasant. Here, IL having
become dark. he got inside Of the stage, and
soon began to use abusive and threatening Ian
guage TO some Ofthe passengers, among whom
were two females, tor an alleged insult that
had been given r0 his daughter in the course
Of the day, for which the passengers declared
there was not the slightest foundation. Be-
coming more and more excited from the ef-
fects Of drink, when the stage had proceeded
SIG miles from Mt. Pleasant, he stabbed with
a knife the gentleman Who sat IN front Of him,
Mr.. Bennrr, merchant, Of Cambridge, Ohio.
The wound took effect in the arm, and was
alarmmgIy severe. The stage was stopped,
and Mr.. Benner, in company with a surgeon
proceeded to the nearest house, Mr.. John
GOwan's, where, while the wound was being
dressed, said Denison entered, and again as
sailed Mr.. B. He was, however, repealed by
those present, and driven from the house. II
