Z A FEARFUL MAS-TRAP-A citizen of New
York. n order to protect his premises from thieves
has attached spring board TO his fence. In the
end of this board NEARLY twenty feet in length,1
was firmly attached sharp and immense tobacco
cutter, weighing sixteen pounds, and so prepared
with springs that when any o1e getting from the
outside and stepping upon small platform on ms
way over the fence, the trap would spring and
propel with great force the end of the plank CON
tanning the cutter against the one treading upon
the dangerous and forbidden ground The Til
bune says:
This fearful man trap was baited, and set sever
al nights in succession, but without catching any
game, and the inventor began to think that he
had all his trouble aud expense for nothing
About o'clock, however, a few mornings
SINCE this rogue catcher was heard to spring
against the fence with much force that sew
eral inmates Of the house were awakened by it.
As soon as possible the owner of the premises
and a man in his employ hurried to the garden ex-
peeting to capture q crippled thief but they were
disappointed the work of effectually manning had
been accomplished, but the victim had jumped
into the street and hobbled OFF. He was traced
some distance by the copious flowing of blood, but
tho fugitive could not be discovered, he probably
having been taken up and conveyed away by some
acc0mplices.
On entering il was discovered that the power of
the spring board had forced the iron cutter through
two inch plank of the fence by the side of which
was found part of brogan shoe or boot containing
three toes and other parts of mans foot, which
had been severed by the victim springing the trap.
The blood at the time was flowing from the lost
limb Had he been struck in the abdomen, ne
would have been ctt entirely in two

No stronger evidence of what progress sociefy

than that which the present condition Of the slave

foreign and domestic enemies of their institutions

tent among the white race and instruction among
the black. These efforts have shaken the nation
al government to its foundations, and burst the
bonds Of Christian unity among the churches OF

States--haye scarcely felt the shock. In survey
