An ANCIENT VoLUME.--The oldest book in the
United States, it is said, is manuscript copy
of the Bible, in the possession of DR.. Wither-
spoon, Of Alabama, written over a thousand
years ago He describes it as follows:
"The back is strongly bound in boards Of old
English oak, and with thongs, by which the
leaves are also bound together. The leaves are
entirely made Of parchment, of superior quail
ity, OF nneness and smoothpess little inferior to
the best satin. The pages are all ruled with
great accuracy, and written with great unifor
nifty and beauty in the old German text hand,
and divided off into chapters and verses. The
first chapter of every book in the Bible is writ
ten with large capital of inimltabe beauty,
and splendidly illuminated with red, blue, and
black ink still in vivid colors; and no two of
the capital letters in the book are precisely
alike,

FEARFUL. PANIC AT A SCHOOL EXHIBITION
At an exhibition of school children attached to
the Catholic Church Of the Immaculate Concep-
ton, in New York, July 29th, at which there
were about 10000 persons present, some light
muslin drapery on the altar, at the foot of the
exhibition hail. caught fire in consequence of
the fall of candle, and was instantly in light
blaze. Cries of fire and shrieks Of fear and dis
tress broke from the audience, and scene Of
the most frightful nature ensued. The scholars
left their seats and sought to escape down the
aisles to the doorway, but were prevented by
the audience, composed principally of the pa
rents of the children, who rushed the other way.
Those not Immediately interested in the school
made their escape to the street, while in the
center of the hall was most confused mass of
of living beings. Here were fathers and mothers
looking for their children, and children in turn,
searching for their parents. The screams of the
women were agonizing, while the children rent
air with their cries. Meanwhile the priest and
teachers had succeeded in extnguishng the
burning decorations, by stripping them from
the altar tables and stamping them under feet,
in doing which the principal had his hands Sc
verely burned Fortunately, no one was much
injured; but had the flames spread into serious
conhagration the loss Of life would have been
frIghtful.

SUICIDE OF LYNCHER IN IowA.--In Cedar
county, Iowa, young man named Finch, son
of church deacon, and member of vigilance
committee, led away by evil companions and
the counses of men who should have set q bet
ter example, was present when the life or death
Of two horse thieves, one named Kelso was
hanging in the balance The lynchers took a
vote on the subject and when the fatal hat
came round Finch dropped into it His ballot,
inscribed with the word Death" On counting
the ballots, a majority we're found to have de-
clared that the cuprits should die, and Kelso
and his comrade were accordingly hung to n
neighboring tree. Young Finch, after witness
ing their dying struggles went home, when his
mother anxously asked him if the thieves had
been caught "Yes," he told her, "and hung,
and he had voted to hang them" His mother
sadly aud solemnly told him he had no right
unlawfully to take that which he could not give
the life of fellow being-and continued a
few moments speaking of the enormity of the
act. He then left her, and went out to plough,
but after ploughing few furrows he tied his
horse, took off one of the reins, and with it hung
himself to the lower limb Of tree When found
his knees almost touched the ground, and he
evidently could have arisen to his feet at plea.
sure had he changed his purpose before insen-
sibility supervened. All attempts to restore
the unhappy youth to life proved useless. The
affair produced considerable feeling among the
members Of the vigilance committee.

THE REvOLUTIoNARY SPIRIT IN EUROPE, &c
The generally well Informed foreign correspon-
dent of the New York Commercial founds a
very plausible theory upon the recent popular
connections in Italy. France &C.:
1t is true that the Paris conspiracy was but
part Of the plan which consisted in the general
rising Of the republican party, and which en-
braced France Italy and Spain. Its proper
tons were enormous. The period of action was
the day of the French election. On that day
the Emperor of the French was to have been
assassinated, and the rising was to be simulta-
neous.
In Italy and Spain a revolutionary NOV ement
broke out, but the French part of the program
me failed, owing to the vigilance of the secret
police. The conspiracy was first discovered by
the French police, and the Italian Government
first received hint Of the affair from this city.
The four persons arrested at Paris as the per-
sons charged principally with the duty of assas-
sinating Napoleon are Romans-three men and
woman. They were arrested three days be-
fore the election. The charge against them is
grave, and it is believed that the three men at
least will be guillotined.
The connection Of this plot with that Of Ge-
noa and Livourne, gives an additional gravity
to the movement in the South. The important
part of the plan was unquestionably the assas-
sination of the Emperor. The important part
of the programme having failed, the failure OF
the rest followed, as matter of course.
All the circumstances have caused a good
deal of excitement this week at Paris, and the
public mind is now prepared to meet almost
any event that may be suddenly announced. 1t
is known that the police are searching with
great vigor for agents of the London commit
tee, in every quarter Of Paris; but have not
heard that any important arrests of this kind
have been made

COLUMBIA RISING FROM THE AsHEs.-The Col
umbia Gazette SAYS the sound of the hammer is
heard on every side of u.s. Young and strong
men are alread hiding the waste places of the
conhagration by tenements which, frail for
other cimes, are all sufficient for comfort here,
at this season of the year. Columbia is the
best mining country in the southern part of the
State. The streets now SO desolate, the lots
now covered with ashes and cinders are rich,
very rich with gold. Columbia will yet rise
from her desolation, adorned with strength
and beauty, the pride and joy of all who dwell
within her borders.
