BEAUTIFUL FIGURE.--Two painters were em-
ployed to frescoe the wells of a magnificent ca
thedral; both stood on rude scatfolding con-
structed for the purpose some forty feet from
the floor One of them was SO silent upon his
work that he became wholly absorbed in admi-
ration, and stood off from the picture, gazing at
it with intense delight Forgetting where he
was, he moved backwards slowly, surveying cri-
tically the work of his pencil, until he had
nearad the very edge of the plank upon which
he stood. So
At this critical moment his companion turned
suddenly, and almost frozen with horror, beheld
his imminent peril; another instant and the en-
thusiast would be preoipitated upon the pave
ment beneath; if spoke to him, it was certain
desth--if he held his peace, II was equally sure.
Suddenly he regained his presence OF mind, and
seizing wet brush, hang it against the wall,
spattering the beautiful picture with unsightly
hlotches of coloring. The painter few forward,
and turned upon his friend with fierce impreea-
tons but startled at his ghastly face he listened
| to the recital Of his danger, looked shudder-
ingly over the dread space below, aud with tears
| Of gratitude blessed the hand that saved him
So, said preacher, we sometimes get absorbed
| in looking upon the pictures Of the world, and
in contemplating them, step backward, uncon-
lseions of our peril; when this almighty dashes
out the images, and we spring forward to lament
their destruction-into the outstretched arms
of mercy, and are saved.

| a DETERMINED PATRIoT.-A heroic evidence
Of the devotion Of Native Americans to the sub
lime principles which they advocate, and a con-
vinoing indication Of the high esteem which
they place upon that privilege of suffrage they,
seek TO protect, was shown by an accident at
Citronelle on election day. a voter resided in
the country some distance from his poll at Cit
ronslle, and sailed forth in the morning to cast
his ballot, but found his progress barred by a.
creek which the storm had swollen to an alarm
ing height. Nothing dsunted, he dofed his ha-
biliments, tied them on his head, and plunged
into the rushing stream, as did Caesar of old into
the Tiber's angry tide; but, though a lusty
swimmer, he found that the fierce current was
likely to be s'too maay'' for hini, and preferring
to lose his clothes srather than his ile, he
turned them adrift, and finally reached the
other shore, far below his starting point, and
much exhausted Starting forward to prose-
cute his journey, it suddenly occurred to him
that his toilet was not exactly Ia mode de
Lltroneiie, and felt o natural hesitation about
entering the crowded streets Of that fashionable
city. Verilys here was fx-in the woods, the
foaming food between himself and home, the
time for closing the polls drawing near, and
completely in parts aatsraiib,ts |; but we are
glad TO record that cur political friend was
completely equal to the emergency, though
there were no fg trees growing near to furnish
him an apron Cautiously drawing near to

Of the suburbs Of the city. and sslet q keen
holler," which speedily brought some persons to
hnd out who was being murdered, probably.
10 them he explained his rather delicate posi-
| ton, was supplied with garments, and went in
and voted the whole American ticket With
such devotion to our cause, may we not reason
ably hope to save the country Mobile Adv.

THE MIsFoRTUNE OF BEING HoaELY The
editor of the 0nondsiga Gazette seems to be
blessed with double allowance Of good humor
to make up, perhaps, for dame natures mig
gardlineEs to him in externals. Hear with what
whimsical frankness he dilates upon his perso-
nal appearance: 8
We have sometimes been tempted to repine
that nature, in our formation, acked so much on
the IS scare-away- the-e crows % principle. When
we were young, our unexpected appearance
amongst bevy of the g fair SEX would scat
ter them as effeetually as q bombsheH dropped
into their. midst, with q flaming fuse, would
have done. And so through life, our physical
"ugliness" has been the Alps to our progress
the Waterloo to our success. Here's the latest
instances Some weeks since we called at the
Chronicle office, in Syracuse, for the purpose of
making few purchases. Alas! little did we
imagine the consequences. We were unfortu-
nately seen BY Mr.. Clark, the proprietor, and
Mr.. Arnold, the editor, since which time the
Chronicle has ceased to be numbered among our
exchanges!
We know Of an editor in this neighborhood
who We are willing TO back against any in the
fraternity for spersona! appearance, He has
q collection Of knives, won by his "ugly," sui
cient to establish moderate sized cutlery store.
