THE WILD MAN.-The Savannah [No.) Eagle,
of the sth, says:
The wild man of Buchanan CO., who has been
spoken of and described by our st. Joseph cor.
resi- ondent, was re-,aken day or two ago, and
is now in our county Jail, where he will remain
until the county court meets. He is remarka-
bly, strange being. When lie was brought to
town and while several persons were around him,
he made an attempt to escape in doing so, he
jumped about six feet in the air-over the heads
OF the bystanders. His movements were antic-
pated, and by the time he reached the earth he
was seized. We have not enqured as to what
he eats in the prison, but we are lead to suppose
that he will not eat nything but dead cats, from
the fact that his nest, or den, when he was dis
covered, showed evidently tina. several ca Is had
been devoured. More Of him at another time

NEW MODE OF SUBPGNAISG W1rNEssEs.-A
correspondent writes from one of the interior
towns of this State to New York paper of
new way to subpoena witnesses: A law suit was
off in the town, and young "Spooney" engaged
to subpoena the witnesses The roads were al
most impossible on account of the mud, and
two of the witnesses living some three or four
miles away, a bright idea struck his muddy pate,
and forthwith was acted upon He sat down
and wrote each letter, stating that sum of
money was deposited in his hands, which they
could have by calling upon him. They called,
and got subpoena and twelve and half cents
each. .Hs-s O. F. 80 -..-.- s.4 ars- rl

The Play Actors EXCUsE.-One evening
when PizaTro was announced a. the play, there
was a considerable delay in commencing, in con-
sequence OF one of the performers being absent.
The audience became impatient, when ohm KEN
bic, Rolla, came forward and delivered himself
to this effect:
Ladies and gentlemen, at the request Of the
principal performers in the play of this evening,
am to inform you that the absent person is MI
Emery"
The house received this explanation without
any disapprobation or otherwise. Emery, at this
period, although very pathetic actor, had not
arrived at the summit of excellence, and on this
evening the part of the sentinel was given to him
Scarcely had Mr.. Kemble quilted the stage when
dressed in great coat, dirty boots face red with
perpiration-on rushed the culprit. Emery stayed
some moments before the audience apparently
agitated, and at length delivered himself to this
effact. '''''
Ladies and gentlemen. this is the first time
have ever had to appear before you apollo

your entertainment, allow me shortly to offer my
excuse, when, am sure, shall obtain an acquit-
tai, especially from the fair portion of this bril-
liant audience. Ladies-for you must particu-
larly address-my wife and I-thunders of ap-

- You've said enough :" exclaimed thousand

that she was safe"
bravo, Emery. You've said enough was
re-echoed from all parts Of the house Emery was
completely OVerpOWereQ ana after making dnO-
ther Intellectual attempt to proceed, retired, having
first put his hand on his heart and bowed grace,
fully to all parts OF the house. The play proceed
ed without interruption; but it appeared Emery
had not forgotten his obligation to cmble, for in
that scene before the prison, in which Rolla tries
to corrupt the sentinel by money, the following
strange Interruption occurred in the dialogue:
RoIla-Have you a wife,
Sentinel have.
Rolla-Children
sentinel-I had two this morning-I have got
three now''
Loud applause followed this retaliation, and il
continued SO long that the entire effect of this
scene was lost, and Mr.. Kemble, after walking
some time in awkward confusion. terminated il
By abruptly rushing into the prison.
