Miraculous EscApE.-On Monday of last

Miraculous EscApE-On Monday of last
week, an interesting little daughter ofDr. Case,
Of Milledgeville, says the Federal Union, only
four years old, fell into well on his premises,
forty mine feet in depth, aud containing seven
feet of water. Strange to say, the child was
rescued without having sustained other injury
than scratch on the side Of her face. She
had been in the well several minutes before the
fact was known, and had been there twenty
minutes altogether before relieved from her
dangerous situation. She was found clasping
the curb, which projected some six or eight
inches under the water. In this way she had
kept her head above water for twenty minutes.
When taken from the we'll she was severely
chilled, but by the application of the proper
remedial agents, no i'll effects followed. The
age of the child, the depth Of the well, and the
depth of the water, together with the length Of
time she supported herself in the water, it must
be concluded that her preservation was indeed
miracle.

vertisement Offering $50 reward for the return
ofa couple Of safe keys which were stolen from
Mr.. S.W. Cochran,s apartment few days ago.
Yesterday the Messrs. Cochran received we'll
written letter informing them where the keys
could be- found and directing where the money
should be deposited, besides giving variety
Of information upon the art Of lock picking in
general, and Mr.. Cochran's lock in particular.
On going to the spot designated the keys were
found and Immediately after Mr.. Cochran
handed over the money offered as a reward to
the person designated by the burglar to receive
it. The burglar assured Mr.. Cochran that he
had once before made an attempt on his safe,
breaking key in the lock, and had keys that
would open his Office whenever he choose to
enter, and in short thre was little in the way
of lock picking that he was not an adept in,
We hope the fellow may be caught and Gagged.

NEEDLE SWALLOWED AND ExrRAcrED.-A
lady of Rochester who was addicted to the
had habit of holding pins and needles in her
mouth, swallowed what she supposed to be a
pin, some time in December last. Soon after
she suffered considerably from acute pains in
her stomach, but without attributing them to
the pin. On Saturday last, the lady was at.
tackled with severe pain in her knee, which
was so intense as to cause her to faint. A
physician was called, who succeeded in extract
ing from the limb medium size needle, which
had worked nearly to the skin, the eye being
foremost. The needle was much corroded,
and the point had become nearly as much blunt.

W0MANS' MISSION.

A distinguished preacher thus sums up
the history of a woman who had been call
ed to her long home -
"She ate, she drank, she slept, she
dressed, she danced, and she died !"
The Lily says this is the history of the
mass of women, but we think some i'm
portant chapters are left out The mass
of women are born, 90 to a boarding
school. get married, 90 to church, bring
up family, and die after that, and our
opinion is, that any one who eats well,
and drinks well, sleeps we'll, dresses well,
dances well, and dies we'll, has done more
for the world than many distinguished
people succeed in doing If, in addition
to this, she is born well, goes to school
we'll, marries well, goes to church well,
and brings up family well, she has been
public benefactor of no ordinary kind.
A woman who is well born-who has
received from her parents healthy men.
tai and physical organization, and who
conducts herself well in the ordinary re-
lations of life, is very great woman.-
To know how to cat and drink, and sleep,
and dress, and dance, and die, Is the sum
of knowledge, and he or she who does all
these things we'll, is wise and prudent
above the common order of Christians
and philosophers.
Let no one speak lightly of eating
drinking, sleeping, dressing, dancing and
dying, for the catalogue embraces more
than half the important business of life
and be who does these we'll. will do more
