A DUMB FOUNDED PIe.-The Knieker.
booker tells the following good yarn in its
editors table:
One of our western farmers, being very
much annoyed last summer bv his best SOW
breaking into the corn field search was in
stituted in vain for hole in the rail fence.
Failing TO find any, an attempt was next
made to drive out the animal by the same
way Of her entrance: but of course without
success. The owner then resolved to watch
her proceedings; and posting himself at
night in fence corner. be saw her enter at
one end Of hollow log, outside the field.
and emerge at the other end within the en-
closure. 'EurekaP cried he, 4 have you
nov old ladyP Accordingly, he proceeded.
after turning her out once more, to so ar
range :he log q. being very crooksd) that
both ends opened on ihe outside of the field
The next day. the animal Was observed to
enter at her accustomed place. and shortly
emerge again.
Her astonishment,' says our informant.
at finding herself in the same field whence
she had started is too ludicrous to be de-
scribed She looked this way ans then
that. grunted her dissatisfaction, and finally
returned to her original starting place; and
after deliberate survev of matter, to salts
fy herself that it was all right, she sgaiu
entered the log. On emerging yet once
more on the wrong side, she evinceG even
more surprise than before, and turning
about, retraced the log in an opposite direc-
ton. Finding this effort likewise in vain.
after looking long and attentively at the po-
sition OF things, with short, angry grunt
of disappointment. and perhaps fear, she
turned short round, and started off on a
brisk run, nor could either coaxing or driv-
ing ever after induce her to visit that part
of the feldl She seemed to have super
siition concerning the spot

ADramnfic neafI,.

A number Of young men we're once en-
gagged in acting the tragedy of "Belran, or
The Castle Of st. Oldobrand," ut Nashville.
Mr.. ]. ]. Mclaughlin. formerly Of Hopkins
vile, Ky, was engaged to act the part of
Betram, whose part it was during the pro-
gress Of the play TO feign TO stab himself.
For this purpose he had provided himself
with Spanish knife. As the tragedy wore
to its denouement his excitement increased
and the gloomy spirit of the play was upon
him with power that made strong i'm.
preston of reality upon the hearers, and
made them shudder as be pronounced the
following. accompanied by the plunge ofthe
dagger that brought him TO bis death:
Betrsm hath bat one fatal foe on earth,
And he is here. (Stabs himself
It was at this moment that he plunged
the weapon to his heart 1t was doubtless
the result Of the excited feelings Of the
actor, who bad too absorbing.y entered
into the dreadful spiri. Of his hero. We
chsritably suppose that he had no prsmed.
itated design Of ending his life with the
play; but his complete identification Of
feeling with the part he acted, led him to
suicide as natural consequences.
The hallucination. if such We may call il,
did not end with she plunge of the dagger.
His feelings bore him along yet further.
There was still, after some exclamatious of
surprise from the tragic monks, dying
sentence for him to repeat. He went
through it with startling effect. With q
burst of exultation-
] died no felon's death
