A Remarkable Story.

One night while Sir Evan Napear was undel
secretary to the home department, he felt the mos
| unaccountable wakefulness that could be imagined
he was in perfect health had dined early and had
nothing whatever on his mind to keep him awake.
Still he found sleep impossible, and from eleven to
two ne never closed an eye. At length, weary of
this struggle, and as the dwilight was breaking.
lit was summer,) he determined to try what would
be the effect of walk in the park There was
nothing but the sleepy sentinels But in this walk
happening to pass the home Office several times he
thought of letting himself in with his key, though
without any particular object. The book of en-
tries of the day before still lay on the table, and
through listesSneSs, he opened it. The first thing
ne saw appalled, him: "A repreve to be sent to
York for the eoiners ordered for execution" The
execution had been appointed for the next day. 1t
struck him that he had received no return to his
order to send the reprieve. He searched the min
utes-he could not find il there In alarm. he
went to the house of the chief clerk who lived in
Downing street; knocked him up-it was past
three-and asked him if he knew any thing about
the reprieve being sent. In great alarm, the chief
clerk could not remember. "You are scarcely
awake" said Sir Evan; ''recollect yourself-it must
have been sent The chief clerk said that he now
recoected he had sent it to the clerk of the Crown

Capital Punishment Among the
CherOkees.

The first Indian that was capitally executed
| by the Cherokees, under the Cherokee Jaws
and by Cherokee sheriff. was a fellownamed.
Nat" of Van Buren, in Arkansas, for the
murder of another Indian who was called
Musquito." The singular and almost laugha-
BILE particulars Of the execution were recorded
at the time by an eyewitness.
1.-THE sheriff had caused gallows to. be
erected a short distance from the court. lodge,
but when the cul prit was brought to it, he be-
ing very tall man, it was found to be. too
short for his accommodations and some other
place had to be sought for the execution. go :
The whole band of Indians, with the sheriff
and Nat" in the midst of them, then betook
themselves to tie bank Of the Arkansas, in
search of a proper tree from which to suspends
the prisoner; and, after a little time, ,astaiss
cotton wood WAS found, with projecting limb
far up the trunk, that in the opinion of all, sSas
suitable for this purpose.
Nat, now that all things was ready, express
ed wish to bathe in the river once more,
which he was permitted to do, carefully guard.
ed by the rifles frQmthe Shore He went into
the river, froicked about for some time, swan
to and fro with great apparent pleasure, then
came to the Shore donned his blanket, Aapd
stood ready for the last ct:of the drama.
The sheriff now told him to climb the tree,
which he commenced doing. the officers of The
law toing up after him with the fatal cord
Nat reached the projecting branch of che
tree, and was desired 10 work himself out on
it as far off from the trunk as he could which
was done, when the sheriff adjusted the moose
around his neck, and tied the other end around !,
the limb!
All these preparations were conducted with
the utmost GOODNESS, and the mostperfect good
understanding existed between the sheriff and
the Indian. When all the arrangements were
completed, the sheriff told Nat that he would
slide down the tree to the ground, and make !,
q signal, when he, the prisoner. must jump Off
the slimb-to all which Nat cheerfulIy assent
ed.
The sheriff reached the ground, and looking
up to the limb upon which sat the poor victim
he shouted
Now. Nat you red rascal, jumpp And
jump Nat did; and after asfew struggles,
hung mass of lifeless clay, to the infinite
wonderment of his red brethren, who had nev.
er before been regaled with, the sight Of an
execution of that ind."-Harper's Nagasine

The CHEaoKEE NAr1oN.-John Ross, Pres
dent Of the Cherokee Nation, sent to the Ma
lional Council, on the. .2dsol October,,ili anual
message He refers, in the opening paragraph,
to the necessity of seeking the guidance of that
being who holds the destinies Of nations and
individuals under His supreme control. and
then directs attention to the fact that during
the past .season many portion of the. country
have been visited with severe drought. "Eruit.
full showers have been with held: the crops
have been cut short, and it is seriously appre.
hended that among portion of the people there
will be great destitution, and IT may become
necessary to devise some means for their re.

in some locations the crops have been very
abundant, aaording the hope that supplies for
the relief Of the destitute may be found within
their own borders.
The message then pays a proper tribute to

understood that the Hon. D. r. Atchson, of
Missouri, vii! not be in Washington during the
coming session of Congress. His term ex.
pres on the 4th of March next, and we take
it for grantek that his determination to remain
in Missouri during the winter is the better to
enable him to attend to his share of his contest
with Colonel Benton, the end of which may
not c"me off for some months to come. His
absence from the Senate Chamber will make
the election of another pro tenn. President of
the Senate necessary. From all we learn,
there can be little doubt that honor will fal.

lar and that of the Negro eccentricaly y elkpti-
cat with aattened edge; that the hair OF the
Negro was not hair, but won, and capable "f
being telted; that the c"loring matter Of true
hair was in an internal tube while in the Negro
it was in the epidermis or icaIes covering the
shaft of the hair
In correlation Of his statement that both
white and negro hair were sometimes found IN
the same head. Il singular case was mentioned
in my hearing by Dr.. w. He stated that
he once attended half.breed Indian AMI negro
who had straight Indian hair. He WAS i'll, and
had his head shaved and bli>tered. On his re
covery, when his hair grew out, ii was ncgr"
hair-crsped and wiry.
These are very curious facts, and OF much
importance in the distinction of races.
The counsel of the plaintiff proposed and
insisted on Dr.. Gbbes to give the facts as TO
the hair Of grades Of blood; but he said he had
not examined by the microscope any but the
half breeds. 1t is to be hope that full invest-
CATION will be made of this subject, and the
facts published.
On the whole, the evidence set forth by Dr.
Gibbes was extreuey interesting, and develop.
ed some facts never heard Of before. There
has been but one opinion expressed in relation
to it.
The Jury decided in favor of the girls being
INDIAN, and she left Columbia next day, with
the old Chief, on her way to Arkansas, to her
parents and friends. Gov Means was so con
vinced that the girl was Indian that he was
heard to say that if the case was decided against
her he. would huy her and sci her free. This
feeling seemed to pervade the community, aud
it is more than probable that, had the case
been decided against her, the citizens would
have freed her.

FAILURES OF BUSINESS MEN.-Speaking Of
failures, some one says he who fails for little,
fails to rise no more; he may be set down as a
business suicide, with none to pity him, con.
sole him. or lend him helping hand ever after.
But he who fails fo: large amount. fails to
rise again; is sympathised with as unfortunate
and perhaps" "a little rash"-n his enterprises,
is called clever, smart, intelligent, but some
what too go.ahead. sort of fellow, to
whom it is safe and popular, however, to give
new credit-and who sis bound to succeed
sometime. How many such cases occur, and no
lesson is derived therefrom save this: "If you
fail, be sure and make big failure. and save
a competency out of it if you can. If You
can't do it the first time, try again. Any other
course sinks the failer in ruin and contempt
such is popular judgment. Again we say, to
the dogs with such morality!

"The motion of the lever which unlocks the
draw changes the signal of safety to one of

only when the draw is locked. The signal of
safety cannot be shown excepting when the
draw is in its right place, and securely locked
The signal has been subjected to all the tests
considered necessary to prove its entire eff.
cheney. The advantage of this signal over Or
