ABBoITs LE1GE, about three miles
west from Bristol, claims attention,@ i not
only for the singularity Of the structure
Of its na1or-house, but also for It's having
afforded protection to Charles H., who
was 50 closely pursued, after the battle OF
Worcester, that he had only time, on en-
tering TIE house, to disguise himself by
throwing a carter's trock over his shoal-
ders. Trusting his secret with the cooI;-
maid, when his enemies rushed in, and
inquired if he had been seen, she replied,
"Anan : and instantly applied q cudgel
to the kings back, whom she had set to
wind up the jack, at the Same time scold-
ing him loudly for his slowness. His
pursuers, seeing hcr behave with 50 much
apparent severity, interceded for the poor
lad, and left the house, without suspect
ing the deception.
Che block on which Charles performed
this seryiic office, and the chair on which
he Sat, are still preserved, as relics Of the
merry monarch.

RegH An amusing incident occurred on the
cars Of the Virginia and Tennessee road which
must be preserved in print-It is too good to
be lost. AS the train entered the Big funnel,
near this place, in accordance with the usual
custom a lamp was lit. A servant girl accom-
panying her mistress, had sank into profound
slun,ber, hut just rs the lamp was lit she awoke
and, half asleep, imagined hersefin the infer
nal regions.
Frantic with fright, she iraplored her maker
to have mercy upon her, remarlSing, at the
same time ''the devil has got mo at last
Her mistress, sitting on the seat in front OF
the terrified negro, was deeply mortified and
called upon her-::Moll;e, don't make such a

edge of it did not reach this country till
thirty-four days after the battle was
fought. An Atlantic Telegraph would
have prevented that battle, and by pre-
venting it would probably have changed
the whole history Of our country for the
succeeding half century.
Such contingencies as these may again
occur, but if the spirit of war should
manifest itself in either nation, il is easy
to see how it will be kept from open out
break. Telegraphie dispatches viii be
substituted for the tedious cireumlocutions
of diplomatists, and a direct negotiation

or misrepresent them, viii hardly fail to
prevent resort to actual hostilities.-

viii do, men everywhere viii not be long
in learning that they have one God and
Father who "hath made of one blood
all nations of men for 20 dwell on all the
face of the earth" that the interests of
the whole world are one and the same,
and that when one country suffers all
countries suffer with it.
Then the family Of man will again be
one, and
Peace, with her olives crowned, shall stretch
Her wings from shore to shore;
No trump shall rouse the rage of war,
Nor murd rous cannon roar"
