them his treasure, secure and undisturbed.
In the enthusiasm of my confidence, l
brought chairs into the room. and desired
them to rest from their fa;igues. while l
myself, in the wild audaciIy of my perfect
triumph, placed my own seat upon the We
ry spot beneath which reposed the corpse
of the victim.
The officers were satisfied. My manner
had convinced them | was singularly at
ease. They sat, and while | answered
chcerily, they chatteI of familiar things
But, ere long, [ felt myself getting pale and
wished them gone. My head ached, and
j f,ncied ringing in my ears; but still
they sat and still they chatted. The ring
Ing became sill more distinct: it continu-
ed and became still more distinct; | talked
more freely to get rid of the feeling, but If
continued and gained defnitiveness, until
at length, 1 found that the noise was n0i
within my ears.
No doubt l now grew very pale; but
talked more fluently and with heighten-
ed voice. Yet the sound increased-and
what could do! 1t was low dull, quick
sound, much such sound as watch
makes when enveloped in cotton. l gasp
ed for breath, and yet the officers hear it
not. I talked moro quickly, more vehe-
men,ly: but the noise steadily increased
arose and argued about trifes, in high
kew and violent gesticulations; but the
noise steadily increased. Oh Godi what

swung the chair upon which l had been
sitting, and GREETED it upon the boards, but
the noise arose over all and continually in
creased. 1t grew louder, louder, louder.
And still the men chaited pleasantly and
smiled. Was it possible they heard it not?
Almighty God! no! no! They heard? they
suspected they Knew they were making
a mockery of my horror? This l thought
and this l think. But anything was tole-
rable than derision! | could bear these
hvpocritical smiles no longer! felt that
l must scream or die! and now, again!

A LArcuApLE IScIpENT.-A curious and

A LAUGHABLE INcIDENT.--A curious and
amusing incident occurred on one of the
Hudson river palaces the other evening"
Among the passengers was an old gentle
man who claimed to be 1O5 years of age-a
Revolutionary veteran. and an intimate ac-
quaintance, during his life, of General
Washington, whom he persisted in simply
calling George" He told several yarns,
but their easy flow was suddenly interrupt
cd by an unlucky wight-another old gen.
tleman, at least 70 years; attempting to
correct one of the statements of the veteran
The old soldier arose with dignity, and in
dignantly replying: "My child, you could
have known nothing, yourself, of the cir
cumstance; and you should know better
than attempt to correct me on hearsay!
and walked away to his berth.

BOTTLE VoYAGEs. = Captain Beccher,
editor of the English Nautical Magazine,
has compiled, within the last ten years the
following curious voyages of bottles thrown
into the sea by unfortunate navigators. a
good many bottles thrown into the sea next
to the African coast found their way to Eu-
rope The bottle seems to have anticipa-
ted the Austral Panama route, having trav
eled from the Isthmus of Panama TO the
Irish coast. Another crossed the Atlantic
from The Canaries TO Nova Scotia. Three
or four bottles thrown into the sea by
Greenland mariners in Davis's Straits land
ed on the northwest coast of Ireland. An
other made very curious trip. 1t swan
from the South Atlantic Ocean to the West
coast Of Africa, passed Gibralter, went
along the Portuguese coast of France, pass
ing Brest, and was finally picked up on
Jersey Island; the direct line touches at
least all these places, and it makes it more
than probable that it took this route. One
bottle was only found after sixteen years
swimming, one after fourteen years, and
two after len years. A few only travelled
more than year, and one only five days.
This last was sent off by the Captain of the
Racehorse in the Caribbean sea, and was
found after having gone through three de-
grees of longitude in a westerly direction.
Captain Mcclure of, the Investigator, well
known since the discovery cf the North
west Strait, threw bottle into the sea on
his way to Behring's Strait 1t swan 81
600 miles in 206 days and was picked up
on the Honduras coast.

A FAcr-It has been chemically proven
that the whittier you make flour, so much

Many people think that only the whitest
flour is the best, and will not touch or use
dark varieties. The dark flour has more
solidity, more nutriment, is sweeter and
better. People nova days are beginning

CASE OF SOMNAMBULIsM.-Ihe Plttsburg
Journal gives the following thrilling ac-
count of case ofsomnambulism which oc-
cured at the residence of a gentleman near
that city:
Hearing footsteps on the stairs about
midnight, and suspecting burglars might
be about the premises, the gentleman rose
from his bed and took down double bar
relied gun, with which in his hand he pro-
ceeded to the door opening into the hall
Reaching the door he applied his ear to the
keyhole and heard what he thought to be
the rustling of garments upon the stairs
Hastily drawing chair to the door, he
stepped upon i! and inserted the gun
through the transom. Just then the thought
occurred to him that it might be his daugh-
ter, who some time previously had been adj
dicted to walking in her sleep. Passing
out into the hall, with the gun still in bis
hand, to be used in case circumstances
warranted it, he found the apartment entire
ly vacant, and, lighting lamp, he then as
cendcd the stairs. Imagine his surprise
and terror on looking out of the chamber
windows to see among the branches of a
tall tree which grew there, his daughter,
dressed in her night habiliments and seem.
ingly utterly unconscious of her perilous
position. Without uttering word or max
ing a sound calculated to frighten her he
stepped out Of the window himself, and
winding one arm tightly about the waist OF
the sleeping girl, he with great exertion
managed to regain the hall with his pre-
cious burden. The surprise ofthe young la
dy when she awoke and was informed ol
her perilous adventure, can be better imag-
med than described.

The Phrenologist and the Lovers.

In the course of DIR. Andrew Combe' S
residence in Paris, M. S. a foreign
friend introduced to his daughter lover
whom he regarded as worthy to receive her
hand, and to inherit his fortune; but unfor-
tunately for the old gentleman choice, the
young lady had already found lover for
herself, to whom she was warmly attached
and as she had taken her mother in her
confidence, she now appealed to her for
support. The mother after seeing both
suitors, greatly preferred Eugenie's choice;
but her fathers friend held superior po-
sition to that of his rival, and was there
fore strongly supported by the father
Daring DIR. Combe's visit to the family,
they had frequently been struck by the
acute and direct descriptions which with
the aid of chronology, he gave them of the
talents and dispositions ofindividuals whom
he met in their circle, and whom they knew
intimately; and as both parents loved Eu-
genie dearly, and aimed only to her happi-
ness, they took him into their counsels, and
asked him to examine tie heads of the two
lovers. and to advise them honestly and
confdentially which was the superior man
He did so, and reported that the fathers
friend was by nature selfish, cunning, and
ambitious; while Eugenie's choice. in
whom a good development of the intellec-
tual was united to largo development Of
the moral organs evidently was the higher
moral character of the two. The father
having. it is believed, subsequently dis
covered the true character of his candidate,
yielded; and in the course of time, Euge-
ME and her lover were married.

THE DESERTED SYNAGoGUE.-On a re-
cent visit to Newport, Rhode Island, where
formerly there was resident large body OF
Jews, we dropped into the Synagogue on
the Jewish Sabbath during the time ofwor-
ship, where we found but single Jew rea-
ding the Hebrew law with mournful Ca
dence. The Synagogue Is kept in capital
ordor by bequest Of the late wealthy
banker. Judah Touro, but the Jews have
all scattered and none were found save this
lonely stranger" to keep even the form Of
worship. The spectacle was sorrowful
and impressive one, and awakened thoughts
of those days in which the Jews were cho
san people, to whom were committed the
oracles Of Cod" who maintained the true
worship, but whose house has now become
"desolate," on accout of Him who came to
his own, and his own received him not.
