An s.Attaehment,;n. Il. 3 ..

q :.
We, have heard a good story, fof which
an Alabama sheriff was the hero. Court
was in.session, and, amid the multiplicity
of business which crowded upon him AZ
term time, he. stopped at the. door of q
thirty, who, by the way, had often be-
slowed melting glsnces upon the toresaid
sheriff. He was admitted, and the. Wild
ow. appeared the confusion aud fright
which the arrival of her, visitor occasion
ed set off to greater advantage than usu-
al the captivating charms of the. widow. NJ.
Her cheeks bore the beautiful blended
tints of the apple blossom; her lips resem-
bledthe rose, buds upon which the morning
dew yet fingered, and heT-eyes were like
auivers of Cupid, and the glances of love
and tenderness with which they were fill.
ed, resembled arrows that only invited q
6eau (pardon the pun) to do full execu.
ton. After few common place re-
marks: , :
Madam" said the mstter-of-fa fact She
riff, /" have an attachment for you." n,
A deeper blush than usual mantled the
cheeks of the fair widow; the downcast
eyes. whose pierces were centered upon
her beautiful foot, which half concealed
by her flowing drapery. partly patted the
floor. She with equal candor replied
Sir, the attachment is reciprocal"
For some time the sheriff maintained
an astonished silence-at length he said:
Madam, will you proceed to court?"
Proceed to court !'' replied the lady.
with merry laugh; then shaking her
head, she said:
"No. sir: though this is leap year, 1
will not take advantage of the license
therein granted for my sex, and, there
fore. greatly prefer that you should pro,
ceed to court"
But. madam, the justice is waiting" {"
Let him wait, am not disposed to
hurry matters in so unbecoming man.
ner and, besides, sir; when the ceremo-
ny is performed, wish you to UNDER
stand that greatly prefer minister to
justice of the peace"
"A light dawned npon the sheriff s
brain
Madam" said he. rising from his
chair with solemn dignity, " there is a
great mistake here; my language has been
misunderstood /; the attachment of which |
speak was issued from the Office Of squire
c., and commands me to bring you in
stantly before him to answer contempt
of court IN disobeyiug subpoena in the
case Of Smith VS.. Jones.

A Heroic Woman.

A passenger on board the Northern In
diana gives account Of tho narrow ape
of Cicero Fowler and wife, of Tully. There
was but one hle-preserver for Mrs. L. and
her husband; he insisted imperatiYcly that
she should put it on. She prremptoriIy
refused, saying she was poor in health.
and his life was worth more than hers !"
Tue preserver having no strap, Mrs, F.
tore The hem from her dress aud fastened
it to her husband, whom she continued to
encourage, saying she could hold on to
him, and if the preserver could not sus>
tain both she would be the first to let go
and leave him to save himself.
The fire was getting hotter and hotter
The water was thick with human bodies
struggling for life /; she tore her bonnet,
already on fire, from her head, and hand
INLAND with the one She loved better
than herself, took the dangerous leap
AS they arose from the water, Mr.. Fow-
Ter assisted his wife in getting good hold
Of him on or about the shoulders. She
wiped the water, from his eyes and mouth,
and encouraged him to retain his hope Of
being saved He continued to struggle
with the waves. Half an hour elapsed,
aQ1 .IueEC WtE6 uo SlSuS Va dSSIStauCe.-
His strength was rapidly failing his wife
observing it, tried anew. to cheer him. He
said he could not stand,it any longer it
seemed as though he must give up. At
this moment she heard steamer coming
rapidly through the water. She says
" My dear husband. few moments more
and we are safe. Don't you hear boat
coming ?'' He said he did, and immedi>
atefv revived, made aIl the efforts in his
power, and struggled for himself. and his
heroic wife until the Mississippi took them,

A CANINE NoBLEMAN.-We take the
following from the Trinity california
Times. It. records one Of the most re-
markable instances we ever heard of ca
nine sagacity:
William Dredge lives about FIVE miles
from town, at the base Of the mountain
which towers North of US. A short time
after midnight, on the morning of Wednes'
day last, he was aroused from his slum-
bers by the howl Of dog. No menace
on his part could rid him Of the presence
of the strange intruder. The dog contin.
ued to walk around the cabin, still re.
peating his Hsmal moan and bowling, oc-
casionally mskiug efforts to effect an en-
trance through the closed doorway, Sur
prised and somewhat alarmed at this sim
gular demonstration, Mr.. Dredge at last
hastily dressed himself and un6olted the
door, when a large mastif rushed in
The dog at once caught hold of his trou-
sers. and employed every gentle means to
induce the man to- accompany him out
side. Dredge's first impression was that
the animal was mad; and yet so peculiar
and earnest were the dumb entreaties,
that he finally yielded and proceeded
without the cabin. A joyful yell was the
result, and the delighted brute, now ca.
pering and wagging his tail before him.
and now returning and gently seizing him
by the hand and trousers, induced Dredge
to follow him. 10 II E Il
Their course was up The precipitous
side of the mountain, and soon they were
forcing their way through snow-drifl
that had settled in one OF its numerous
assures. Here comes the wonder. Up
on the snow lay the body Of woman,
who had evidently perished from. cold
dy stifenedtin death |; but what was the
surprise Of Mr.. Dredge to see that faithr
full dog ferret out from a bundle of clio.
thing that lay by The sid, OF the woman.
a young child, about two years old, still
warm and living: A little inspection, al.
ded BY the starlight aud the snow. ena-
bled him to discover that the person Of
the woman was nearly naked. With q
mothers affection sue had stripped her
person in order to'furnish warmth TO hel
exposed infant. The trusty dog had
completed iGs work Of self sacrifice.
Mr.. Dredge Immediately conveyed the
child to his cabin, and areusing some o.
his neighbOrs proceeded again 20 Che
mountain to secure from the attacks o
wild beasts the person of the unfortunate
woman. Her body was buried The mex
day. The child and dog have beer
adopted by this good Samaritan; bat a
yet he has been unable TO obtain any ligh
as to the name of the woman or how sh'
happened to stay on the dismal mountain
side at such an unfortunate hour. Tb,
child is doing wen. and is truiy hand
