They stand by lake and stream,
And garnish many shepherds tale,

The hands that raised them, long ago,
In death and dust have slept,
And long the grave hath sealed the founts

Amid the passing waves

interesting at this tine, when Russia is
lhrus,ng her ursine nose into the politics
Of Europe: .f.
Peter l., the founder, as he may be
called, OF the present imperial family,
was the murderer of the two daughters
and the sors of his brother Ivan, ano the
murderer, it is asserted, according 10 more
than one Of the annalists OF his reign, by
his own hand, Of Alexis. He was him
self murdered by Menzikoff, "a name
that has again risen upin history, the
favorte Of his W 10 Catherine; who when
unitedio Peter was already the wife Of a
living husband, and their children were
afterwards declared incapable Of rsign-
ing, because born in sin. Anne; the
eldest daughter Of Ivan. put IA 900 Rus.

ger Ivan 10 put on the throne Elizabeth,
daughter Of Peter =, and her reign was
remarkable for her drunkenness and de>
bauchery. Peter Ill.,, her successor, was
notoriously the offspring Of crime, and
was de,hroned and sirangled by his wife,
Caiharine H., the same infamous woman
who bad assass mated The dethtoned Ems
peror Ivan, and whose own son, Paul

they descended hundred yards, when
whist front the girl warned them Of their
danger. 'The.spies sunk silently on the
ground where, by previous arrangement,
they were toiemain ill tho signal was
given BY the eirl to move on Her abb
sence, for the space Of a quarter Of on

noiselessly resumed, and the spies foI>

mile in the most profound silence. when
the barking Of dog at a. short distance
apprised them Of new Danger. 4 ,Hl,n
The almost simultaneous click Of tho
spies rifles was heard by the girl, who
stated that they were now in the midst
ofthc Tndisn camps, and their lives de.
pended on the most profound silence,and
by simply following her footsteps. A
moment aflerward the girl was acGosted
by sqnaw, from an opening in her wig
wan; sho replied in the Indian language,
and without stopping still pressed fcr,
ward. In shor! time she stopped and
assured the spies that the village was now
cleared, and that they had passed the
greatest danger. She knew ,ha, every
leading pass was guarded safely by the
Indians, and at once resolved 10 adop,
the bold adventure Of passing through
the centre Of the village, as the least haz-
ardous, and the sequel proved the cor
rectness Of her judgment. They now
steered course for 4he Ohio River, and
after three days travel arrived safe a, the
block-house. Their escape and adyen-
ture prevented the Indians from making
their contemplated attack; and the res
cued girl proved TO be the sister Of the
intrepid Corneal Wasllburn, celebrated d
tin the history of Indian warfare. and as
the renowned spy of Captain Kenton's
bloody Kentuckians.

TELEGuAPn MIRACLE. .--lt may not
be generally known That operators in
magnetic telegraph offices become so
familiar with the sound of the instrument
lhro' which they receive communications,
as 10 know what il says; that Is, they
learn 10 understand The raps and pauses
as a language, and without the necessity
Of having the marks and dots taken upon
a,moving slip Of paper, can, from sound
alone, write out COMMUNICATIONS, And
perhaps everybody does not understand
that ali operator at. one Office may have
connection with an hundred Offices, and
write in them all at The sahe time. Al
the telegraph Office in this city, when
communications are passing from New
Odeans 10 New York, every word going
both ways may be understood. The
operator is heard 10 call New York, from
New Orleans, and in an instan, the reply
passes on its return. In this manner
items Of Intelligence, business notices,
messages and jokes between the opera
tors are daily exchanged over the enor,
nous circnit Of two thousand miles, and
The most wonderful fact of all is, thai a
person familiar with the business, can
s,aud OH The sidewalk in front of the
office, in this City, when the communica,
ions are complete, and, by the ticking OF
the instrument, Can understand the mes
sages as they ply at incoL ceivable speed
