AN-AwFUL MoNsTER.--We saw the dead
body of one Of the most singular natural curl
osites which we have ever beheld. It was
what purported to be the carcass of a calf
but tfesenb1ing in its conlormatlons any thing
but calf. The head-which measured in cir
cumference, just above the ears, 3 feet and 3
tinches-bore a striking and startling resen-
4blance othe human head. From above the eyes
Ftg the back of the neck it presented q perfec
Resemblance to the head of an old man-the
hair and locks being of the silver gray" order
land the whole bearing an exact resemblance
Of what an old mans head would be were it
enlarged into Brobdgnagan proportions The
forehead was singularly perfect, giving a stri-
king development of what the phrenologsts call
the reflective faculties" The under jaw was
similar to that of hog-beng furnished with
tusks and other swinsh appurtenances. The
eyes were large and remarkable in appearance.
with eyebrows somewhat resembling those of
an old man. But the body was not less remark
able than the head. The monster was of no
/ sex-and possessed the feet of hog-the tail
Tot dOg-and body covered with white hair
like that of a greyhound. Thus this remark
able curiosity has in combination some portions
of the human, the hog, the COW, and the dog
species. 1t is the property of Elisha Hull, of
Berlid, who has brought it to this city to show it
to those curious in such matters.-Troy Budget.

A Story for Boys.

II is related of Persian mother, that on
giving her son forty pieces of silver as his por-
ton, she made him swear never to tell lie,
and said, Go, my son, consign thee to God,
and we shall not meet again till the day Of
judgment"
Tne youth went away, and the party he travel
led with was assaulted by robbers
One fellow asked the boy what he had got,
and he said, " forty dinars are sewed up in my
garments"
He laughed, thinking he jested.
Ancsher asksd him the same question:, and re-:
ceived the same answer.
At last the chief called him. and asked him
the same question, and he said" III have told
two of your people already that I had forty
dinars sewed up in my clothes. o' - = 49,
He ordered the clothes to be ripped open and
found the money. ~
g.. "And how came you to tell thiS?" said the
chief. ~
Because" replied the child, 81 would not
be false, to 10Y mother, to whom promised
never q tell tie."
aChllbe sad the rObber, art thou SO mind
ful Of Thy, duty TO- yhy-mothes at thy years, and
am insensible VI my age Of the duty I owe to
God? Give me thy hand that I may swear
repentance omit" He did SO, and his followers
were all struck with the scone.
"You have been our leader in guilt" they
said to the chief, {" be the same in the path OF
virtue; !" and they Immediately made restitution
of .sheir spoils, And vowed repentance on the
boys hand. n
There is moralin this story, which goes be-
yond the direct influence Of the mother on the
child. The noble sentiment infused into the
breast of child is again transfussd from breas
to breast, till those who feel it know not whence
it comes.
