A ScENE.-The good town of Newport Ky.
was thrown into quite state of excitement
last evening, the circumstances connected with
which we shall attempt to give. 1t seems
that sometime SINCE an individual-a son OF
Thespn-came to Newport with lady, whom
he passed off for his wife, and took boarding in
private house. Last night gentleman made
enquiries of the proprietor the house for the
individual and lady referred to, and was shown
to the room, which he had no sooner entered
than he presented a revolver at the actors
head, and denounced him as having ran away
with his wife from Lexington, Ky.
1t is said the actor was frightened nearly
out of his wits, and, falling upon his knees,
begged loudly for mercy. An officer was
sent for, but meanwhile the actor had man
aged to get near the doo-, and, watching his
opportunity, he sprang out and turned the KEY
on the husband and wife, and made good his
escape, since which time he has net been heard
from. The landlord very properly left the
husband and wife in the room to settle their
difficulty as best they could, and, as there was
no disturbance during the night, the conclus-
1on is that peace was the result.

~ In quiet little village on the Western
Reserve, in Ohio, says the Prescott Transcript,
there lives man who, philosophically consd-
cred, is certainly one of the wonders of the
world. His joints are completely ossifed,
(turned to bone,) and he is not able to make
the slightest movement, except alternately
opening and shutting two fingers of the right
hand. His body is as rigid as iron and it
could not be bent backward or forward with
out breaking some of his bones

0F 1t is stated that arrests continue to be
made in Paris of individuals suspected of con-
spring against the life of the Emperor The
conduct of his Majesty on the occasion of his
return to Paris, and since, gives the impress
sion to the public that these arrests are based
upon facts which fully warrant the utmost
rigor of the police. His entry into Paris was
private, unannounced as regards the hour, and
made under the most cautious circumstances.
His carriage, which was closed, was surround
ed by mounted men, and instead of passing
over the usual route, they passed rapidly
through the city by the river qaays.

For THE misunderstanding some time
since by railroad faom Columbus to Baltimore
took my seat Immediately in front of gen.
tlemaR who was suffering under a paroxysm
of fhiccups, to degree that had never before
witnessed. In few minutes person appeared
from the end of the cars, and took seat be-
hind him, when he said: "Sir. can you tell me
what is good for the hiccups? | have been af-
ficted in the way you see me since yesterday
noon, and have had no rest or relief from any
physician to whom l applied for assistance:
am worn out with suffering" To whom the
person replied "Sir, can cure you in less
than two minutes by the watch. Have conf
dence, for | am sure | can do it. Hold up
high above your head two fingers of each hand
lean back IN your seat, open your mouth and
throat SO as to give free passage to your lungs
breathe very long and softly. and look very
steadily at your fingers In less than the
time specified the cure was performed, one hc-
cup only occurring during the trial. The pa
tient could not express his gratitude, while the
practitioner only exacted from him as fee, the
promise that he would extend the knowledge
he had impaired as freely as he had received
it, assuring him that he would never be disap-
pointed in the result. We were all struck with
the fact. Since then have often had occa-
sion to practice upon patients in the same dis
order, and never without the most signal sue
cess Water Cure Jonrual.

BRITISH PULPIT ELooUENcE.-The London
Times expresses its opinion very plainly in
regard to the present character of English
preaching. 1t says: "We would leave it to
the decision of any one of ordinary candor,
intelligence, aud education, to say whether
men, in any other profession, could carry On
their business with success if they took no
more pains about the matter than any ordina-
ry preacher does in the composition and de-
livery of an average sermon. The truth is,
that in England pulpit eloquence has fallen to
a very low ebb indeed. With the finest theme
in the world before them, with all the hopes
and anxieties which agitate the human breast
during the brief interval which separates the
cradle from the grave, as their subjects, our
preachers miss their opportunity" And il
might be justly said that in our own country
Incidence and sloth are losing "many a
chance" to save souls.

An Incident in California.

The Rev. Bishop Andrews, in one of his let
ters from California, relates the following in
cident:
rs A ride of fifteen miles brought MS to the
house of Judge Dickinson, on the Tuolumne
{ river. We were kindly treated. We had
here quite an interesting incident. Mrs. A.
recognized in one uf the walters young man
whom she had known in Alabama; but he had
changed his name, and when she inquired if
he was not B. G. he denied it. and the family
know him as e. NJ | told her she was prob
ably mistaken, but she persevered, woman
like, and finally succeeded in cornering him.
Finding that he was recognized, he made an
honest confession. He had come to California,
been unfortunate in business, and was reduced
to the necessity of begging, stealing or work
ing. He very properly chose the latter and
was employed as waiter at the public house,
at $40 month and his board. This was a
wise resolve, yet his pride revolted at the idea
of its being known that he had fallen into
such a menial employment; hence, to prevent
his friends from knowing him, he had changed
his name. His feelings as son broke forth
when he found one who knew his mother, and
could give him tidings from home The in
terview may be overruled for good He said,
On our return the following week. that he in
tended to save all his wages, and return in g.
few months to Alabama. His employer spoke
I highly of him as very excellent young man.
