WELL DoNE-A gentleman recently left
his home in Attapulgus, Georgia, placing a
large sum of money in his wife's charge. To-
wards evening, two negroes entered the house
and demanded of the lady the money, or they
would take her life. Being woman of great
GOODNESS, she saw at once it would be useless
for her to attempt to evade the demand, so
she produced the money and gave it to them.
The negroes then remarked that as supper
was nearly ready, they would stay and eat
with her and she told them to be seated un-
til she got it ready. She had vial of strych-
nine in the cupboard, and when supper was
ready, and the robbers seated, she managed,
in sweetening their coffee, to put dose of the
poison in each Of their cups They drank,
and in a few moments were dead. The neigh
bors were called in, and the negroes discovered
to be white men in dsguise-near neighbors
and friends Of her husband, who had known
of his receiving the money, and OF his absence
Mariposa Democrat., 1857-12-10

How THE DEVIL LosT.-A young man who
ardenty desired wealth, was visited by his sa-
tanic majesty, who tempted him to promise
his soul for eternity, if he could be supplied in
this world with all the money he could use.
The bargain was concluded-the devil to sup
ply the money, and at last have the soul, unless
the man could spend more money than the
devil could furnish. The man married-was
extravagant in his living-built palaces-spec-
ulated wildly-lost and gave away fortunes,
and yet his Golfers were always full. He
turned politician, and bribed his way to power
and fame, without reducing the pile" of gold.
He became fibuster, and fitted out ships
and armies, but his banker honored all his
drafts He went to the "Springs" to live,
and paid the usual rates of interest for all the
money he could borrow but though the devil
made wry faces when he came to pay the bills,
yet they were all paid. One expedient after
another failed. The devil counted the time
only two years that he must wait for the soul
and Knocked the efforts Of the despairing
man. One more trial was resolved upon-the
man started newspaper The devil growled
at the end of the first quarter, was savage in
six months, melancholy in nine, and "dead
broke at the end Of the year. So the news
paper went down, but the soul was saved

SENsIBLE-Emerson says that a great man
is always willing to be little. While he sits on
the cushion of advantages, he goes to sleep.
When he is pushed, tormented, defeated, he
has a chance to learn something he has been
put on his wits, on his manhood; he has
gained facts; learned his ignorance; is cured
of the insanity of conceit; has got moderation
and real skill The wise man always throws
himself on the side Of his assaants. 1t Is
more to his interest than it is theirs to find his
weak point. The wound cicatrizes and falls
off from him like dead skin, and when they
would triumph, 10! he has passed on, invul-
nerable.

SHARP SmooTING-Mr Bass is a man of
great celebrity in England. Whilst practicing
with other members of the Burton-on-Trent
Rifle Club, says an exchange, he was one day
Joined by bevy Of ladies', one of whom re-
quested to see a specimen Of Mr. Bass shoot
ing. A two-inch bull's-eye being placed four
successive shots were fired at ITO yards
Every shot went through the same hole, a little
to the left of the centre without breaking the
outer edge of the paper. On another occasion,
when lunch had been discussed on the banks
of the river Trent and the black bottles looked
as if their occupation was gone, employment
was found for them. A wager was laid that
the bottles should be recorked, and thrown
into the river, seventy yards from the shooter
(Mr. Bass, and that, whilst floating, the cork
of each of the six bottles should be hit to win.
II the body of the bottle was struck, to lose.
Every cork was struck. The weapon in this
case was a pistol of peculiar construction, with
a ten.inch rifle barrel. The staple fixed in the
stern OF Hatoottomeu HshhB oo"e ""n
struck, the first shot, for wager, at 300
Yards. A swan was shot through the head at
10 yards. duck feeding upon weir at
800 yards, and hare at 2so yards, were both
shot dead. A boy was seen angling upwards
of 90 yards from the bridge, on which Mr..
Bass was standing, with not less than two
score lookers.on. A bet was made that Mr. B.
would break through the upper part of the
fine rod the boy was using, the first shot. The
weapon in this case was the pistol before men
toned. The shot was made; the line, with
the whalebonc mounting, fell from the rod
The boy stood aghast. The wager was won,
and handed over to the little fisherman.

An HONEST BANKER-John Schmidt is a
German banker in Louisville. He suffered
run, was obliged to suspend, but did not close
his doors He simply stuck up a notice in
high Dutch that he was going to have some
money pretty soon. Two days after, he took
down the notice, and put up another, stating
that he had $4,000 on hand. There was
another run, and the $4,000 was soon gone
John put up the old notice again. and next
day was again in funds, when, in accordance
with his old plan, he changed the notice. At
last accounts, there was no run on John, and
his depositors had all come back to him. That
was straightforward Dutch pluck and honesty.

SMARr.-The Marysville Express tells of a
man writing communication against private

viz withdraw their money, and keep it them
selves. Next morning, genteel individual en-
tered the editors sanctum, and Indignantly in
quired for the authors name, which was fur
nished him. On the succeeding day, the cor
respondent met the editor, and with chap
fallen countenance informed him that all his
money had been stolen the night previous.

The "vEsTAL PmEsrEss. Dion Bourci-
cault, in several of his plays Gn "The Life of
an Actress" especially holds up the stage as
a platform of virtue, and Rachel as the vestal
priestess. And yet recent European news
paper paragraph informs us that this pure, un-
married lady, being about to die, is providing
for her children. There are two, Alexander
and Gabriel; the first a legitimized son of
Count Walewski, French Minister of Foreign
Affairs, the other of less noble origin.

BoNE OF HIS Bone AND BLOOD OF HIS BLOOD.
A woman's life was curiously preserved by
her husband in Stafordshire, lately, by the
process of TRANSMISSION. She was at the poin.
of death, when, as n last resource, vein was
opened in her arm, and one in the arm of her
husband, and as the blood flowed from the
latter it was transmitted by suitable appara-
tus, to the veins of the wife. After seventeen
ounces had been thus injected, the pulse be-
came perceptible and the colorless lips red
dened, the CLASSY eye frightened, and she
thankfully said, 81 am better" The case has
progressed very favorably, and the woman is
recovering.
