AN OLD STORY REVIVED.

There lived some y ears ago IN Western
Virginia, many Duchmen, and among them
one named Henry Snyder; and there were
likewise two brothers called George and
Jake Fulwiler; they were all RICH each
owned mill. Henry Snyder was subject to
fits of arrangement, but they were not OF
such a nature as to render him dangerous
to anv one. He merely conceived himself
to be the Supreme Ruler of the Universe,
and while under the lnfatuation, had him
self throne built, on which he sat to try
the cause Of all who offended him; and pass
ed them otto heaven or hell, as his humor
prompted-he personating both Judge and
culprit.
1t happened one day that some difficulty
occurred between Henry Snyder and the
Fulwllers, on account Of their mills; when
TO be avenged, Henry Snyder took along
with him a book in which ne recorded ms
Judgment, and mounted his throne to try
their causes. He was heard to pass the fol-
lowing judgment. Having prepared HIM
self, (acting as Judge, and yet responding
for the accused he called George Fulwl-
Ter.

you been doing iii this world"

''Well, den, Shorge Fulwiler, you must

''Well, Shake Fulwiler, now stand up

THE trial proceeded precisely like the
former, and with the same result.
"Now, tries mineself. Henry Shnyder,

Vitality OF SEEDs.--"Ion," "a Washing
ton correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, in
a letter tosthat paper says:
81 received last winter two seeds, said to
be wheat, which were found in the folds OF
the Egyptian mummy which MIR. Gliddon
uurolled in Boston. The mummy was sup
posed to be one of the Pharaohs. Improved
to be priestess, and to be more than thirty
centuries old.
"The seeds were shaped something like
pearl barley and of that size, and were of a
dark tinge, as if colored by the same prep
aration which had been used in the process
Of embalming.
81 planted the two seeds in a hower-pot
in the spring. They terminated, grew fine
ly and one of the plants bears hundred OR
more grains.
The other is more backward, and is still
in flower. The leaf resembles maize. II
NAV he opOoies of r,,iliet. The land OF f.
gypt-the granary of ancient times-must,
Of course, have been cultivated with grain
which, for that climate s soil, was very pro-
ductive and nutritious, 1t was hardly worth
the while of the priestess to have taken
with her these two small emblemS OF the res
direction, unless they were valued grains"
