The GarrOte.

A Havana correspondent of the New
York Mirror writes: eve stated that we
had come to see the Garrote, when one
of the crowd pointed out fine looking
black fellow that stood near by, and said,
'.Thatere feller is the one as does the bu-
siness-he stopped Lopez's wipd--he can
tell you all about it. We then turned to
distinguished darkey, and made few
signs indicative of our wish to see the Gar
'ote, at the same time presenting him a
bundle of cigarettes which he most gra-
ciously acknowledged by lifting his hat
and making a low bow. He was a splen-
did developed fellow, dressed in fancy
linnen pants and white linnen shirt, with
fine cambrick bosom, beautifully worked.
He beckoned us to follow him to a small
room, not far off, where the ''little chok-
err was to be SEEN Tt is the most COM
plete thing ever saw for choking a man.
It is attached to piece of timber about
three feet long, half a foot wide, apd two
inches in thickness; one end of the piece
of wood is SO shaped as to fit in hole in
a solid flooring, and the criminal is placed
in front af the upright post, on a seat
made something like piano stool, and
his armes are tied behind him; his head
is then placed between two iron prongs,
made SO as to fit the back Of the neck;
directly under these are two other pieces
of iron about an inch square. little over a
foot in length, perfectly smooth; these pie
ces pass through the post, and are moved
with great rapidity and precision along
the sides of the neck, by the action of a
screw which passes through an iron plate
that unites with the ends behind the post;
the screw is turned by an iron bar, about
three feet long, that fits on the end of it;
a piece of iron about as large round as
your finger, is attached to the outer ends.
This completes the apparatus, and by a
turn of the. screw the side pieces are
drawn in, pressing the front against the
throat, so as to break the neck almost in
stantly. Seating myself upon the stool,
and placing the shackles around my an
kles, signi6ed to the corlored gentleman
to adjust my neck within the irons, but
he respectfully declined, saying, ''No
good-no good" Handing him a two
shilling piece, we thanked him for the
trouble he had taken, and left, highly
gratifed with our visit

the gentleman remarked to his "lady

Democrat, in noticing Marrow Escape
says:

inch and half or two inches of having

in two schools to nearly Eve hundred pu-
pills. These schools possess admirable
scientific apparatus. and instruction is
given in the latest discoveries Of science.
and in the principles of industrial art
most approved in the establishments of
other nations.
Theory OF THE AuRoHx boREALfs.-
Sir Johh.Ross states that III order to test
his theory that the phenonena Of the aus
rora borealiswere occasioned by the action
OF the sun, when below the pole, on the
surrounding ice. by its rays being reflect
ed from the points of incidence to clouds
above the pole which were before invisf.
ble,-he placed a powerful lamp to rep
resent the sun, having lens At the focal
distance of which be set lied terrese
tial globe, on which bruised glass of the
various colors seen in Bafin's B AZ was
placed, to represent the co1ored iceberes
in that locality. while the space between
Greenland and spitzbergen was left blank
to represent the sea. To similate the
clouds above the pole which were to re-
ceive the reflected rays. he applied hot
iron to sponge. and by giving the globe
its regular diurna1 motion, he produced
the phenomena vulgarly called the merry
dancers, and every appearance. exactly
as seen in the natural sky, while it disap-
peared as the globe turned, as being the
part representing the sea to the points Of
incidence.
EXPERIMENTS in THE MANUFACTURES OF
LrME.-It has been question whether
as good an article of quick lime could
be made from the carbonate, with stone
coal alone, as with wood, or with coal and
wood combined. 1t is known fact chat
considerable water is contained in wood,
while there is very little in coal; about
400 gallons Of water are required in the
manufacture of every LOCO bushels Of
quick lime. 1t appears that at an estab.
lishment in Pennsylvania. lime is now
manufactured with coal alone as fuel
The top is burned with anthracite, and
the arch with bituminous coal: under
CRATE is a cold blast driven by steam
engine; and at the top ofthe eye and o.
yer the bituminous coal is pipe inIrodu-
cling into the arch a constant Jet of steam
from the engine, which can be regulated
as to quantity at pleasure.
New MACHINE FOR PrcKrSG FIBRous
MATERIALs.-This invention, BY Mr.. q.
Kitson of Lowell. has q main cylinder.
on which the picks are arranged. and Me
cylinder is both seIfsharpening and self
cleaning. This is done by an ingenious
mode Of drawing air into the cylinder
box, and then causing the air to impurgs
against the base of the teeth, pass away
at their point, and thus blow of the ma
terial. The teeth have a new and pecu@
liar fastening, rendering them stronger
while their form greatly cheaper their
cost.

A CuR1ous REASON FoR CoMMrrrIN,

A CuR1ous REASON FOR COMMITTING
SUIcIDE.-Mr. Elias, workman, living in
Holmes County Ohio, committed suicide
on Sunday morning last hanging himself
with bride. 1t is said he had lately
been elected Assessor Of the township, and
had given heavy bond. Fearing he
was not fit Tor the Office, and to avoid the
modification of being laughed at, he rose
in the morning at four O'Clock and went
to the barn and hung himself.

thing but commentator, should it be
said to me. You have given us pretty

life, and my advocate should amuse the
jury with his troops and figures, burying
his argument beneath profusion of the
flowers Of rhetoric, would say to him,
Tut, man, you care more for your van
ity than for my hanging. Put yourself
in my place speaking in view of the
gallows, and you will tell your story
plainly and earnestly I have no OBJ
jections to lady's winding sword with
ribbons and studding it with roses, when
she presents it to her hero lover; but in

ornaments, and use the naked edge to
the enemy.-Robert Hall.

THE SHOOTING OF YOUNG JONES.
am cognizant of the fact relative to
the murder of the boy Jones, which will
not reach you so soon from any other
quarter. On the Monday previous to
the attack on Lawrence he was proceed
ing on horseback about two miles from
Wakarusa, when he met FIVE or six men
who ordered him to stop and deliver up
his arms. He replied, "All the arms
have is that little pistol" which he gave
up. His assailants then called upon him
for the horse he rode, which he refused
to surrender, he had a mother depen-
dant on himself and team for support
He then started on. was called to by the
captain ofthe band, who threatened to
shoot him. To this he paid no attention.
He was then fred upon and shot through
the back, the ball lodging in the abdo-
men. This took place about noon. He
died at II o'clock that night.
THE DEATH OF STUART.
On the afternoon of that day, a party
iof FIVE started from Lawrence to see
young Jones. On their way they were
met by two pro slavery men from Le-
compton, going to Franklin. They were
commanded to halt and turn back. This
they refused to do, saying they were ''de-
termined to see young Jones who was shot
on the Wakarusa." On attempting to
pursue their course, the two men raised
their rifles to FIRE. The rifles snapped
Instantly the Lawrence party drew up
their rifles which also snapped. One of
the two then made second attempt to
discharge his piece, which proved too
successful. A young man by the name
of Stuart, from Buffalo. NJ Y, and Clerk
ofthe Free Topeka Legislature. fell NOR

the left eye, and passed entirely through
the head, scattering fragments of the
skull over the road. One Of the Law

of which struck the man that had shot
Stuart in the hand. He dropped the rifle
and rode off.

I meier on that lip for a moment have gazed,
But thousand temptations beset me;
Aud I've thought that the rubies which raised,
- How delightful 'twould be if you'd-let me-
Then be not SO angry for what have done.
Nor say that you've sworn forget me,
They were buds of temptation too pouting to
shun,
And thought that you could not but--let me
When your lips with whisper came close to
my cheek,
Oh. think how bewitching it met me;
And plain, if the eve of Venus could speak,
Your eyes seemed to say you would--let me-
Then forgive the transgression and bid me re
main,
For. in truth, if / go you'll regret me;
Then, oh, let me trv the transgression again,
And I'll do all you wish, if you'll-let me-

If you'll swear by my charms, that you'll ever

And that no other damsel shall get you,
By the stars that roll round yon summit of

sWhere Are YOu GOing.s

An anecdote is told of Finney "the re-
yivalist, and canaller, to the following
effect:
He was holding forth in Rochester,
and in walking along the canal one day,
came across boatman who was swearing
furiously. Marching up, he confronted
him, and abruptly asked: "Sir do you
know where you are going?'
The unsuspecting man innocently re-
piled that she was going up the canal on
the boat Johnny Sands.
"No. sir, you are not" continued Fin
ney, 'you are going to hell faster than a
canal boat can convey you-"
The boatman looked at him in astonish-
ment for moment, and then returning
the question; "Sir, do you know where
you are going?"
81 expect to 60 to heaven"
"No, sir, goa are going into the canal"
And suiting the act on to the word, took
Finney in his armes and tossed him into
the murkey waters, where he would have
drowned, had not the boatman relented
and fshed him out.

ADVICE TO BoYs.-You are made to
be kind and generous. If there is boy
who has club foot, don't let him know
you ever saw it. If there is boy with
ragged clothes, don't talk about rags in
his hearing. If there is lame boy, as
sign him some part of the game which
does not require running. If there is a
hungry one, give him part of your DIM
ner. If there is duh one, help him to
get his lesson. All the school will show
by their countenances how much better IL
is to have great soul than great fist.
The Wyandot pioneer. (Upper Sandusky, Ohio) 1853-1868, 1856-06-05

Eg--A boys character is always known
by the company he keeps. If he associ-
ates with rowdies, he is a rowdy, IF he
associates with liars and thieves, he will
soon be liar and thief; consequently
boys should shun the company of all
such lads and young men.

rlncy forty mine years ago, when the pay
was sixty dollars year, paid in Raccoon
Skins, etc. 1t worked well, and he was
against having this question sprung upon
the people. He hoped Conference would
not act without premature deliberation.-
(Several voices: "mature deliberation.
But Father Finley did not seem disposed
to accept the correction. He knew well
enough what mature deliberation meant
but he evidently wanted stronger ex-
preston. His critical knowledge of Latin
prefxes taught him that premature delib-
Grafton meant just what he wanted, "full
deliberation beforehand" Many Of the
preachers here, he said, had never travel
ed circuit in their lives. They knew
nothing at all about it. If he had the
power he'd make nary station in the Con-
ference, they should all be circuits. He
would say to them: "Take care when
these gray hairs are gone that you don't
run Methodism into Congregationalism." :"
He would rather ride circuit 200 miles
round than to be stationed in one of your
little country towns to dig like frog in
autumn. where they had nothing to do
but to lay in bed and eat sugar. He could
tell them that if they rode circuits they
would not hear anything of the diseases
that was SO fashionable now among prea-
chers; dyspepsia, and bronchitis In con-
clusion he thanked them for their forbear
ance, and promised not to trouble them
again unless something else turned up.
