LIGHTNING IN THE SANCTUN.-The office OF
the New Orleans True Delta was visited last
week by n celestial visitant in the shape of a
streak of lightning The editor thus de-
scribcs some of the effects:
GO The clerks in the counting room were sent
sprawling from their desks, as if vOIley
had been fred into them by battalion Of
Thugs The men at their cases in the COM
position room shared no better The editorial
room, however, presented the most ludicrous
picture imaginable. The Devil" who was
standing along side Of the mail editor, impOr-
tuning him for copy for the evening edition,
after turning few somer-saults, finally found
himself eoiled up in the fire place, while the
reporter for the Associated Press, who occu
pies a desk in our sanctum, was thrown dis
tance of ten feet, knocking down the mail
editor in his involuntary transit. Fortunate
ly no person was killed, and none very seri-
Ously injured. The reporter for the " AssO
ciated, !" Colonel Turner, received the severest
shock, and for few moments after the occur
renee, his case was an alarming one few
buckets Of cold water dashed upon him, and
a gentle restorative of brandy and straight, -
soon made Richard himself again.

half of that class of articles known as fancy
goods, in common use in this country, are man

featured articles are regarded as supetior, and
the importation Of them has entirely ceased.

that places US in position quite independent

since, the youthful son of a we'll known mer-
chant Of Boston fell into water from one of
tae wharves, and was only rescued after the
most strenuous and courageous exer,ions on
the part Of q poor but honest blacksmith.
The father liberally rewarded the preserver
OF his SON life, telling the rescued that " ifit
hadn't been for the blacksmith he would have
been drowned" A day or two since the same
boy fell gain into the water, but this time its
depth was not sufficient to endanger his lie
and drawing himself out, he rushed to the
store Of bis parent and demanded reward,
saving eff il hadn't been for himself, he
would have been drowned" The boy was
sent TO his mother.
