In the course Of time the people repent
cd of their deed, and resolved to call again
the village preacher. But he had gone
thence. and mono know whittier. Inquiry
was made. but without tdings. At length
story came that filled the village with
weeping and lamentatioD. The mangled
corps Of a man, who by accident or de-
sign, had wandered far from the main
road, was found by hunter in lonely
road, at the foot of craggy steep over
which he had been prscipitated. The de-
ceased was young and fair, and slender.
His dark flowing hair, which in life had
relieved his bold thoughtful features, until
they appeared almost handsome, was
blown about by the wind. Near at hand
lay small bundle, tied in white hand
kerchief, and in tho crown Of his broken
hat was tho fragment Of sermon. The
hunter took the hat and bundle and laid
them beside the corpse. and covered all
together with leaves and branches.

it be owing to Mesmerism or not, doctors

@ While General Jackson was opsr-
ating In the Creek county, some twenty odd
years ago he invariably gavs orders that
all encampmsnts should be made near the
main body 10 prevent surprise and alarm:
but he had one officer, Capt. g., who, al
though brave man. was rather lswlsss,
and disposed to prowl and "bush whack"
about on his own hook and account
When the main camp fires were lit At night
he would frequently be seen off on soms
hill by himself, mile, perhaps from others,
and in very exposed situation. General
Jackson finally got as tired Of giving or
dsrs in relation TO encampment, as Capt.
G. was of receiving them, and seeing his
fire one night on distant hill the COM
mandsr sent an aid to arrest the brave but
excentric officer.

GOING TO LAW.

"Lawing" isprstty well shown up IN m'the
following anecdote Of two Dutchmen, who
built and used in common small bridge
over a small stream which ran through
their farms. 1t seems thsy had dispute
concerning certain repairs which it requir-
cd, after atime, ,ons ofthsm declining to bear
any portion of the expense necessary to
the purchase Of two or three new planks.
Finally, the agrieved party went to the
neighboring lawyer, and placing ten dol.
lars in his hand, said, "I'll give you all
this monies, if you'll make Hans do justice
NIT de bridge"
"How much will it cost to repair the
bridget" asked the honest counsellor of
the determined litigant.
sWell. den, not more ash five tollars. :"
replied the Dutchman.
"Vsry WE'LL" said the lawyer pocksting
one of his notes and giving him the other,
take this and 60 and get the bridge repair
cd; it's the best course you can take"
"Yaas." said the Dutchman, slowly,
"yaas, dat ish more better as 10 quarrel
nit Hans" M a3i
ia As hs went along home, he shook his
head frequently, as If unabls, after all.
quite clearly to see how he had gained
anything by going to law.
