SINGULAR EFFECT OF ELEcTRIcITY ON Ne.
aRoEs.--During thunder storm last week
the following incident occurred:
A gentleman residing a few miles out o.
town recently carried home small electrical
machine Tor making some experiments AS
soon as'he got home, the negroes as usual
locked around him, eager to see what master
had got There was boy among these dar-
kies that had evinced a strong disposition to
move things when they wanted moving, or, in
other words, to pilfer occasionally.
Now, Jack" says his MASTER look here ;
this machine is to make people tell the truth,
and if you have stolen any thing or lied to me,
it will knock you down."
why, master,' said the boy I never lied
or stole anything in my lfe'
We'll, take hold of this :" and no sooner
had the lad received slight shock, than he
fell on his knees and bawled out, "Oh, master
did steal your cigars and little knife, and
have lied ever so many times please forgive
me-"
The same experiment was tried with like
success on half dozen juveniles At last an
old negro who had been looking on very at
tentlvey, stepped up.
5. $ Master" said he, "let dis niger try; dat
rnashesnis well enough to scare de children
wild, but dis .nlgger knows better"
The machine was then fully charged, and he
received stunning shock. He looked first at
his hand, then at the; machine, and at last
rolling his eyes, MASTER, said he, 1t amt

A SLY DASH AT THE 4CRITTER "-One ot
our subscribers, says the Rhode Island Repub-
lican, who happened to be in Newport, last
summer. got down into the bar room at very
early hour, when there was nobody but boy
in attendance, when 10 who should come in
first but tall, well dressed Quaker gentle
man, who had been attracted thither by the
yearly conference The friend looked about
for moment and then turning to the boy in
quired
"Boy, dost thee make lemonade 81
Certainly, sir-a great deal every day"
We'll, make me a glass. Take the largest
size tumbler"
Boy mixes ingredients, and pours in
water about half full.
'Stop-leave a vacancy. Has thee any old
French Brandy?'
Yes SIR
We'll, pour till tell thee to STOP
The boy acted accordingly. j..
Stop! exclaimed the Quaker in due time;
has thee any good Jamaica rum?
NO, SIR
ANY Santa Cruz?'
tYes' IL.
.-'Well, pour till tell thee to STOP
It was done, and the boy mixed the con-
tents of the tumbler; which was brim-full, in
the usual mode; our Quaker friend raised it to
his lips, and poured down in one continuous
stream the whole arrangement without the
of the breath. Then, with a look
of satisfaction to the inner man which on such
is seen but not describe he sat down
his glass and inquired what was to pay. \ He
paid. and turn to go away, but stopped as if
he mad forgotten something just as he reached
the door, and casting his eye to the fountain
of refreshments where ne had imbibed the ex-
beverage he exclaimed. Lad, thee's
a very small boy; but thee does make s~-e--
