A BIG STORY OR BIG Snow BANK.-
The following is letter from Essex, Mass.
dated Friday, Jan. 80, 1857:
In the snow storm on the night of the
18th, the dwelling of Mr.. William Perkins,
a good sized two-story frame house, loca-
ted under the brow ola hill, in the town Of
Essex, Mass, was completely buried in a
drift above the chamber windows, inso.
much that the occupants were unable to as
certain when it was morning, except by the
clock. Mr.. Coggswell, one of the neigh
bors, shoveled away the snow from one Of
the chamber windows, when Mr.. Perkins
took the sash out, and thus obtained egress.
He was obliged to dig thirty-seven feet Of
arch-way between the house and barn, and
towards the nearest road, DC. The snow
above one of these arches was eight feet
in depth. The pressure of the large body
of snow between the hill and the back side
of the house was so great as to spring all
the doors, rendering it difficult to shut
some of them; and it was at one time fear
ed that the building would be pushed from
the under pinning when the snow should
be removed from the opposite side. But
by dint of laborers shoveling the apprehen-
ded difficulty was obviated. None of the
''oldest inhabitants" in these parts have any
legends of archways and snow-shoes, which
surpass this occurrence.

Table Manners.

The following extract from "The Widow
Bedott Papers" satirizes the fashionable
practice of guests fattering the entertain
menl of their hostess, while she on hel
part disparages it:
"What delightful biscuit" says Miss
Grimes.
'They are so," says Miss Skinner; "but
Miss Gipson never has poor biscuit"
40! pshawl' says Miss Gipson, "you
amt in airnest-my buiseuit is miserable,
and not nigh so good as common. don't
think the flour is firstrate"
'Miss Gipson, how dew you make
crackers?" says Miss Stilliman; II never
tasted none so good"
II can make good crackers, but them's
very poor-the oven wasn't just right
when l put them in"
81 must have u piece of this cheese, it is
so good" says Miss Lippincott. "Where
did you get it 7"
"Well, l got it of old Daddy Sharpe
he ginerally makes excellent cheese, but l
told Mr.. Gipson old Sharpe has failed for
once-thafs what I call poor cheese"
"Dew taste o this plum sass, Miss Pea
body" says Miss Brewster; "never see the
beat ont"
"Pd rather have these peaches" says
Miss Peabody; "they're derlicious. It's a
mystery 20 me how Miss Gipson always
has such luck with her preserves. / never
dew, and I always take pound for pound,
tew."
'This apple jel's the clearcst that 1 ever
see," says old Miss Parker; show did you
make it miss Gipson9 Don't you do it in
the sun? Pm sure it don't look as it had
been nigh the fire."
"Now don't speak o that jel," says Miss
Gipson, 81 told Caroline was ashamed o
my jel after seeing Miss Parker's, and l
was almost sorry that I'd made any pre-
sarves since I'd eat some O Miss Peabody's
. and Miss SINNERS, their'n was so much
nicer"
So they went on. The whipt cream and
custard had to be gone over; Miss Gipson
had to tell jest heow twas made-what
favorin' she used, and all that-though
she declared she was ashamed ont.
The cake was praised up; they must
know how much butter there was in this,
how many eggs it took for that, DC. Miss
Gipson run it down; she coaeld make good
cake, but somehow she failed that time.
A person who didn't know how wimmen
always 90 on at such a place, would a
thought Miss Gipson had tried to have
! evervtbinp the miserablest she possibly

Discovery of saxon Graves.

A discovery of considerable interest,
throwing much light upon the funeral rites
of our Saxon ancestors previous to their
conversion to Christianity, was accidental
ly made during the past week in the garden
attached to the residence of Mr.. Charles
Carill Worsley, at Winster, Derbyshire.
While lowering the bank of earth for the
purpose of making some Improvements in
the pleasure ground, the laborers uncover
ed two graves at the depth of upwards of
four feet from the present surface, each
containing human skeleton, lying on its
right side with the knees drawn up and the
head pointing to the northeast. A care
full examination of the place and the objects
there discovered, affords evidence of the
interments having been made in the follow
ing manner A wood fire was in the first
place lighted upon the ground, in or around
which some largo stones We're put so as TO
become caleined; this being burnt out, the
place it occupied was cleared for the recep-
ton of the body, which was then deposited
in the position before mentioned, along
with implements and weapons Of the de-
ceased. The ealcined stones were next
piled carefully over the corpse, and finally
earth was heaped above the whole, proba-
bly while tie ground was still warm. The
first skeleton was accompanied with spear
head or knife of iron, much corroded, and
the lower part Of handmill, anciently
used in every household for grinding CON
the latter had passed the fire. With the
second interment was found the upper
stone of the same mill very neatly wrought
in sandstone, but split to pieces by the
great heat TO which it had been exposed.
Some pieces ola very coarse vessel of plain
earthenware were found near the head of
this skeleton, and behind it large spear
head of iron, 2 feet 10 inches long, a cur
we'd instrument of the same metal, five
inches, originally fixed in a wooden handle,
the bone ferule of which still remains, and a
ring-like bead or decoration of light-colored
porcelain, about i inches in diameter.
The whole of the articles exhumed from
these graves (which may be assigned to the
Teutonic or iron period, including the time
from the end of the fifth to the eighth cen
tury, A. d. by the kind permission of Mr..
C. Caril Worsley, have been deposited in
Mr. Bateman's museum of antiquities, at
Lomberdale-house.

fathers kiss, saying through his tears:

harm, may their souls never see Saint Pet

Then taking his other child by the hand
he walked away, leaving Norah with me.
took her down to the cabin, and We
thought the matter settled. 1t must be
confessed, to my great indignation, howev
er, in about an hours time saw my friend
Pat at the window. As soon as he caught
my eye he commenced making signs for me
to come out Ibid so, and found he had
the other child in his arms.
"Whats the matter now 7" / asked.
"Well, sir, said he, Il AK your pardon
for troubling you about so foolish a thing
as couple of children, but we were think
ing that may be it'd make no difference
you see sir, l have been talking to Mary
and she says she can't part with Norah, be.
cause the creature has look of me; but
here's little Biddy, she's purtyer, far, an if
you plaise, sir will you swap?"
"Certainly," said I, whenever you like
So he snapped up little Norah, as though
it were recovered treasure, and darted
away with her, leaving little Biddy, who
remained with us all night: but, 10! the
moment when we entered the cabin in the
morning, there was Pat, making his mys-
terious signs at the window, and this time
he had the youngest, a baby, in his arms.
"Whats wrong now?'
abe the hokey, fly, sir, an its mesilf
that's after tellin We. You see I've been
talkin to Mary and she don't like to part
wild Norah, because she had a guide look
Nv me, and be my sowl 1 can't with Biddy
because she's the model of her mother, but
there's lump of Chistian for wees, two
years ould, and not day more; he'll never
be ony fhrouble 10 ony body, for if he takes
after his mother he'll have the berightest
eye, an if he takes after mesilf he'll have a
fine broad pair of shoulders to push his
way through the world. VIII you be af-
ter swapping agin, sir"
with all my heart" said I; It's all the
same TO me;' and so little Paudeen was
left with me-
ala, ha," said 1 to myself, as 1 looked
into his big laughing eyes, the affair was
settled at last
But it wasn't; for ten minutes had hard
ly elapsed, when Pat rushed into the cabin
without sign or ceremony, and snatching
up the baby, cried out:
It's no use; I've been talkin to Mary an
we can't do it. Look at him, sir; he's the
youngest an the best ov the batch. You
wouldn't keep him from us, would ye now
You see, sir, Norah has look NV me, and
Biddy has the look Nv Mary; but by my
sowl, little Paudeen has the mothers eye,
and the nose Nv mesilf, and wee of both
of us all over. No, sir; we can bear hard
fortune, starvation and misery, but we can't
bear to part with our children, unless it be
the will of Heaven to take them from US !"

Buchanan at Brooks, Funeral.

Peihaps Mr.. Buchanan owed the late Mr..
Brooks debt of gratitude for the support
which that deceased person gave to one
who was ''neither his first nor his second
choice for the Presidency" and we knew
that upon certain occasion the President
elect apologized for the assault upon Mr..
Sumner whose speech he characterized as
''the most vulgar TRADE of abuse ever deliv-
cred in 'deliberative body" while the act
of Brooks he merely declared to be Simeon
siderate." Weare not surprised, therefore,
to learn that Mr. Buchanan ostentatiously
attended the funeral of the departed mem
Der. But when we are informed that after
the funeral procession has passed from the
House, Mr.. Buchanan was surrounded by
friends of both sexes, who seized the occa-
sion to pay him their respects" we think
Mr. Buchanan, as a man of sensibility,
should have put on his hat and walked off
as fast as possible Seized The occasion !
a cynic might indulge in a sardonic grin at
the expression. While all that is left of a
public man is carried slowly down the ave-
nue., to the tomb--while the tears are not
yet dry upon the faces of Keitt and Toombs
the mourners are metamorphosed into cour-
tiers smirking and "booing" around the
new dispenser of power and patronage
What an astonishing plan for the first re-
ception of President elect! What an
occasion" to sseize" for worshiping the
rising sun. There has been nothing like it
since the marriage of Hamlet's mother. 1t
looks little grim and ugly, and we trust
it may not prove ominous.-N y Tri-

WARNING TO BoYs.-The Lyons N. Y
Republican says, lad in that village wish
ed to ascertain how tight his wet tongue
would stick to an axe that had been lying
in the wood-shed all night. The expert
ment was successful, and the illustration Of
the tenaeity of frosty axe to wet tongue
far more forcible than pleasing, The little
fellows cries or attempts to cry,) brought
his father to his assistance, and the boy,
with the axe sticking to the unruly member,
was carried into the house; and it was
some time before they could be made to
part company.

| A DREADFUL DEATH.-The Petersburg
Express furnishes particulars of the death
of DR.. Cox, one of the most public spirited
citizens of Petersburg: e'~L0
On Sunday afternoon, during the prevail
ence of the storm, from which SO many sui.
fered, DIR. Cox expressed his intention of
visiting his farm, situated in Chesterfield.
some thirty miles from Petersburg. In ia
king by-road familiar to the Doctor, 30
reach his brothers house, the darkness was
SO impenetrable, the snow so deep and blind
ing, that it was impossible to drive with
any certainty, and in the midst of this per
perplexity the buggy struck log, breaking
an axle-tree and causing the horse to break
from the traces.
The Doctor then left the buggy and at
tempted to make his way back to DR..
Grimes, while Mr.. Traylor, too much be-
numed with the cold and disheartened with
their bad fortune, wrapped his blanket over
him, and fell back in the buggy. II was
nine o'clock. In the meanwhile, DR.. Cox,
within fifty or sixty yards Of the house,
sunk intoa snow drift, which completely
enveloped him, and, unable to move an inch,
he remained in this unhappy condition until
Monday morning. DR.. Grimes coming out
into his porch about seven O'Clock deserted
the buggy at some distance, occupied by q
human form covered with snow, and imme-
diately procuring his horse, FASTENED out to
render assistance. Mr.. Traylor was found
nearly frozen to death, blood streaming
from every organ of his face, and almost
without the power of articulation. DR.. Cox
was discovered, by his direction, in the drif,,
perfectly insensible,
