An Incident AT LUcKNow.-A lettsrreceived
from Calcutta, December 9th, from an American
at that port, says: ,t'ais.a
"The English soldiers fight well. and give no
quarter to the Sepoys. In a recent conversation
with gentleman who has just returned from
Lucknow, he informed me that the natives are
exceedingly superstitious, and as an illustra-
ton, he related an anecdote: A part of the force
at the recent battle of Lucknow was composed
of sailors from the English men-of-war, who
compose the naval brigade. During the battle,
which lasted several days, they were busily en-
gagged their guns, and to facilitate their labors
built fires near their pieces, and cooked their
bullocks, while they kept their guns at work all
the time. The Sepoys' noticed their fires, and
asked an English prisoner what they were inten-
ded for. He informed them that the sailors were
all cannibals, and that they were cooking the
prisoners as fast as they took them, and he ad-
ded that the Highlanders were much worse, as
they ate human beings raw. This account caused
such CONSERVATION that the Sepoys commenced
their fight, and was the means by which the En-
glish sailors we're enabled to kill three thousand
Of them"

"KNG ALBERT. The Court Nondon) Cir
cular thinks the time is come when the Prince
Consort's position should be "recti6ed," and
that he should receive the style of King. 1t In
forms its readers that ." his right to that style
does not rest with the vOlition of Ministers OIL
with the pleasure Of the people. 1t is the law
of England since the days of Henry VII. that
the husband of peeress in her own tight shall
if he has issue by her, be tenant by courtesy Of
her barony, earidom, &c. This rule, it is said
applies not by right, but "by grace" to the
spouse of the reigning sovereign; but the law Of
grace is just as potent in question of this ma.
ture as is the law Of right. It is clearly within
the personal prerOgative of the Sovereign to or
der and command that the Consort Of the Crown
shall, in all such things as title, place and prec
edency, have and enjoy the attributes of roy
alty.''

SANTA ANNA ON HIS WAY TO MExIco.-Late
advices inform US that Ex President Santa Anna,
accompanied by his family, embarked on the
18th inst, at Carthagena, on board the British
mail steamship Clyde, for st. Thomas and Ha-
vaaa. He was, doubtless, en- ronte for Mexico.
Santa Anna has for some years been living at
Turbaco, charming village near Carthagena,
in New Grenada, where, for time, in the year
1901, the famous Humboldt also fixed his resi-
dence. Turbaco overlooks the bay of Cartha-
gena from height of two thousand feet, and
the ambition of the Mexican "Napoleon" does
not seem to have dwindlei away in that exalted
position. His passionate indulgence in his IA
vorite sport of cock fighting, lin his love for
which, by the way, he has the sympathy Of no
less person that the present Premier of Great
Britain,) has not materially impaired his vast
fortune; and he is now Fastening back to Mex
leo either to bring order out of chaos, after his
conception of order, or to put matters quite be-
yond redemption. Some of the Washington
journals profess to be informed that he will re-
appear in the arena Of his long and restless pub
lie life as the. agent of European alliance,
committed to the establishment in Mexico of an
Independent monarchy TO be conferred upon a
Prince of the House of Bourbon. But we shall
see what we shall see.

SINGULAR DEATH OF REVOLUTIONARY VETE-
RAN.-The Marysville East Tennesseean relates
the following singular accident, which resulted
in the death of a Revolutionary soldier:
On Tuesday, the 9Th inst, Mr.. George Wells,
of Sewer County, one of the remnants of the
days of the Revolution, aged about "a years,
was so severely injured as to cause his death in
two hours. His house, built Of logs, was situa-
ted near the foot of hill. 1t will be recollect-
ed that at the time the ground was severely fro
zen and covered with ice. His son went out to
chop wood, and, after cutting some near tie
house, went a considerable distance up the hill
and cut down tree; when it fell. it started to
slide in direct line towards the house, and af-
ter sliding some distance, nearly stopped. but
started again with accelerated motion, and was
precipitated with 50 much violence against the
corner of the house as to knock out short log
which struck Mr.. Wells on the temple and frac-
tured his skull Mr.. Wells leaves large fam
ily, some Of his children searcelv grown If We
recollect rightly, he was the father Of twenty
two children

gAS ASS IN LIoS's SKIN.-The Dayton Ga
zette says that student at Oxford, Miami Co.,
Ohio, visiting Troy few days since, was told
that Dutchman had been made to believe that
a lion had escaped from menagerie and was
prowling around. The student thought it funny
to play him a trick, and so got inside Of buffa-
10 skin and secreted himself in the cellar. The
Dutchman was sent down on apretended Grand,
and the lion sprang at'him, growing. The
Dutchman caught up cudgel andlaid Mr.. Lion
sprawliDg, with his head cut open, where his
friends found him senseless. Remedies revived
him, and he will probably recover. We would
advise him to follow the advice Of Constance to
Austria:
Tbou wear Iion's hide dcf IL for shsme,
And hang calf skin On those reeresnt limbs.

Mahon. call her the Pawnee, because there
is no such frigate in our navy, and because IaI
net at liberty to use real names in relating the
following little actual occurrence. Our Lieuten-
ant Of marines was named John Peabody, or, at
least, so name him. He was a tall, straight
man, and looked every inch the soldier. He
had black eyes, and his beard and moustaehe
were so beautifully black and neat that the cap
tain allowed him to wear them. The soldier
looked at home in them, but our old captain
tBOlton-he's dead now, poor fellow, would not
let sailor come on deck with such appendages.
The whiskers for them must be bounded by a
line from the bottom of the ear. Peabody was
Jolly fellow, but always gentleman. In his
dress, especially when on shore, he was most fas-
hdiOus, and his handsome uniform was of the
incest cut, fit and finish. 3D..
