The great Eclipse arrived here from New
Orleans Friday night about II o'clock. She left
New Orleans the evening of the 10Th, and was
consequently only lille over five days out She
put out very little freight here. The Eclipse
will be down tomorrow evening, and will want
freight. -.-5 .s.s...f

Journal that relates the cause and pro-
vocation Of a law suit as herein after
set forth. The mesmerizer twas badly
taken and done as soundly as the
egg
An Inherent mesmerizer, who, for
some time past has been extending
his peregrinations through this and
the neighboring counties, was. one
evening expatiating largely upon the
wonders and extraordinary powers Of
mesmerism, and. among other strange
things. he said that he could mesmer-
Use boiling water to such degree that
il would not contain the least portion
Of heat. and 10 prove it to the salts
faction OF all present, he offered to bet
fifty dollars that an egg might be put
into the boiling water and remain
there half an hour. and when taken
out, it should be in the same condi-
ton as when newly laid. A rather
green looking individual standing by.
dryly remarked. as he pulled out his
pocket book. and taking therefrom fif-
ty dollars. IN take that bet, cover
this The mesmerizer not suspecting
such prompt action on the part of any
one Of his hearers, was rather taken
aback. but seeing no means Of retreat.
he rather unwillingly rummaged his
pockets, but could find only forty
dollars. Never mind: that'll do.
said the green looking one, well
make the bet forty dollars and the
squire here shall hold the stakes, and
tomorrow we'll try the experiment.
In vain the mesmerizer tried TO reason
with his betting friend; in vain he told
him that he knew he should win his
money. that he had tried the expert
meni often, and rs he was very clev
or fellow, he should regret exceeding
ly to be compelled to take his money.
But the green 'un refused 10 back out,
he was a great lover oil science. and he
wanted to see the power'of mesmer-
ism tested upon the boiling egg.
The next day came and with it a
crowd to witness the experiment
The water was brought, the fire was
kindled. the pot was put on, and after
the water was seen to be in boiling
condition. the egg was put in, and re.
med half nm hour. The whole
power Of mesmerism was applied to
the pot and its contents, and when the
egg was taken out it was found to be
boiled as hard-as hard rs an egg
might be expected to be, after boiling
half an hour. The Squire handed
aver the forty dollars that had been
staked upon the result. together with
his own money. to the green one, and
the mesmerizer now brings suit to re.
cover back his money. The trial i
expected Ia come oil next week.
