SomnGnsbuiisns. "A rather singular occurrence took place, early on the morning of Thursday last, to respectable cow-keeper, living in the neigh borhood of Chesterfield. The servant boy got up between four and five o'clock, with view of gO- I ing to milk: on going into the kitchen, he was much surprised in not finding the milk can. The lad then went to the stable to see if the pony was there, but 1t was also missing He then proceed ! cd to the field some distance from home, when he was agreeably surprised at finding his master in
 the act of driving all his cows into corner, as he supposed, for the purpose of milking, the pony standing at distance with the cans and other mis. sing articles on its back On approaching his mas I ter, the lad thought he looked se very queer,n which terrified him so much that he was afraid to go near; but having at length got the better of his 1 fears, he seized his master by the arm, and 30 awoke him from sleep. for in that state he had been busying himself as before stated. The same individual, some years ago. when in the service of gentleman, got up in his Sleep, harnessed the horse and put it to the carriage and drove to the front door before he awoke. Derby Mercury
 "7Can16e Cramped"-Some paper has been jeering at St. Louis for the amount oI crime and rascality which exists in this city. The Republi- can takes it in good part, and uses t' philosophy" Thus does it refer to the charge and meet it :-
 Quite likely. We, out here in St. Louis, in proportion to our size, population, wealth, &c., do more in every thing city people may or can do, than any other city in the Union and greatly more than the people of Louisville are likely ever to do. From drunkenness up to preaching, we are great people. In St. Louis, we can show, in pro- portion to our population, more groggeries and more churches than any other town, and the same relative proportion will hold throughout all departments of pleasure or business. We car-, " on all branches of life into which any portion our people are embarked in keeping with our no- ble rivers, broad lands, and the liberal endowments of nature around us. A man can't be cramped in his genius or propensities out here, no more than you can prevent cottonwood from growing hundred feet high.
