The Sun.

The editor of the Fayetteville North
Cdrolinian tells the following amusing in
cident in his experience:
We were teaching an "academary'' down
in the wire grass country of South Geor-
gia, soon after we left college, and among
the ''higher branches taught in that Gin
stitootion' were the rudiments Of astrono-
my, to which advanced textbook we had
introduced a class of sand hill boys and
gopher trapping girls, ranging in age
from IA to 20 years. A few Rotations,
confined principally to corrections of mutt
lated pronunciations, ''stairs," ''hevingiy
buddies, the yeath, ~ "comies," PLANES, "
&c, and we made to the "advanced
class" the startling and incredible announ-
cement that the sun did not rise and set
daily. that the revolution of the earth ON
its axis made night and day, &c. There
were a few open countenances i'll that
gaping wonder-stricken class about then.
Next morning we were waited on by a
grave, sage-looking patron of ours, who,
with some asperity of countenance and ,as
we imagined, contemptuous severity ofex
preston, thus delivered himself:
"We've emply'd we here to larn our
young 'uns, haint we ?' We assented to
the proposition.
"Well," continued he, "what's all this
riggymarole and stronamy and stuff about
the sun not settin and risin', and the
yeath turnin' upside down of night, and
such like infdd talk yeve been foolin the
skollards WITH" Now thought we, for a
triumph Of science, lighting up of this
benighted understanding. Inviting him
into the academy, we proceeded, to draw
a diagram upon the black board, for the
purpose Of Illustration. "Now," said we,
''the sun is ninety-fve millions Of miles
from the earth, and''-'stop," cried he
''howdo you know that? Who's been thar
to measure it? What surveyors ever durg
his chain over that route? faint So In
rain we assured him that scientific men
had demonstrated it, philosophers proved
it beyond boubt, and that all the learn
ed and eminent men in the world admit
ted and believed it.
'They don't know nothin' about it,
was his dagmatic response-''not bit
more'n l do, and they've never ben any
closter to the sun than l hav. It's agin
reason, sense and scripter, to say that the
sun don't rise and set-for thar's text
which mabbe you've seed, if you ever read
the Bible, which | kant scacely believe
you ever did read it,saying from the risin'
Of the sun to the goin' down tharof-and
see here,young man, if you kant teech the
children somethin better Il. schf fool talk and
infdel argument you mout as we'll look
out for Dooly settlement, whar Their amt
no churches and the folks never heard O
the Bible" We caved, wiped out the
diagram with our left coat tail, bowed out
our indignant patron, and the next MORN
the "stronamy" class was advanced to
Peter Parley's geography, and the sun
permitted to rise and set as usual.
There's every thing in admitting and
denying the premises.

A singular Suicide.

In the little town of Dover, which is
situated on the Cumberland river, in
Middle Tennessee, there lived, some time
ago, an eccentric and Incorporate old
bachelor by the name Of Kingston. On
one occasion, when Frustrated on his
bed by excess and suffering accutely from
those things and horrors peculiar to his
situation, he sent for his old boon COM
panion to come and visit him. Shyrack,
for that was the others name came duly
into Kingston's room.
What's the matter, Kingston
Shyrack, shut the door.
Yes, my dear fellow.
Lock it.
Eli?
Lock the door!
Certainly, my dear boy,
Shyrack, I'm going to kill myself!
Ny dear fellow, let me entreat you not
to do it,
will
No, no-oblgc me, and don't.
Must TO it!
Don't, it'll be the death of You!
Shyrack was quite cool and jocose,
little dreaming that so terrible an event
was actually going tc take place.
Kingston had, as the last eccentric act
of his life, taken a chisel and mallet to
bed with him and now with desperate
resolve he seized the extraordinary tools
of death, and in an instant drove the
blade of the chisel into his breast.
The hair rose upon Shyrack's head.
and fright spread like sheet Of snow
over his face
kingston Kingston! my dear fellow
you id rascal Kingston! do you
want to have me hung? Hold on! don't
you die till | call somebody?
Shyrack ran to the door and called
like mailman to some people across the
street:
Halo! here say! you mister? all you
stupid people? make haste over here, or
there will be murder.
The people crowded into kingston's
house.
Don't die, Kingston? Don't chisel .me
that way Don't die till you tell them
who did it.
| did it myself, said Kingston family
There, thatll do; now, my dear fellow,
you may die, replied Shyrack, taking a
long breath and wiping the perspi ration
from his forehead.
And Kingstown did die, in that extra
ordinary manner. leaving his fate to
be recorded as a suicide that was almost
a murder.

suit, very naturally asked the mother to
intercede for him. why don't you ask
your father yourself, my son +? said the
mother. Why, mother, wonld ask

quainted with him, was the reply.

INDIA RUBBER SHOES BY MACHINERY.
AS an illustration fthe magical celeri-
ty with which Indian rubber shoes are
now made by machinery, it may be sta
ted that the sheets of rubber are cut up
one day, and the shoes are made the next,
and these are packed ready for the mar
ket on the next again. There is no sew
ing or stitching in the operation.-Such is
the adhesive nature of the substance that
whenever two surfaces are brought to-
gether they unite as firmly us if they had
never been separated. The only thing
requisite after this is to give them coat
of varnish.
