'PLAN OF CREATION" by Rev. C. L. He
luxembourg, has been published by Phillips,
Sampson, & Co. The author Of this work ev-
identity thinks he he has caused some new.
truth to 'break out of the Holy Scriptures
| We find the book very tedious. 1t may how
ever find fit audience where it will be held in
high estimation but it is, in our view, not at
all likely to produce any very serious revolu-
ton in theology. Mr.. Hequembonrg does not
lack ability to discuss theological matters but
he has no ability to match his pretensions. He
is not much skilled in metaphysics he is not
by any means an original thinker; he is not
brilliant and he will never be mistaken any
where for one Of Gods light bringers. For

his medicine for invalids; on the contrary we
think very highly of it and wish it were more

A TIGER AT SEA.-A somewhat extraordi-
nary adventure was met with few DAYS ago
near Muilky, which is about twenty miles
North of Mangaore, on the coast Some fish
ermen started out very carly in the morning
while 1t was yet dark, with their hooks and
hsh spears in their boat remarked something
dark in the sea, which, it appears, was outside
the breakers. They made up to it to make it
out in the dark. One of the first boat load of
hive called out, "a cheetah a cheetah p but
1t was soon discovered to be royal tiger.
They roWed close up to it, and the first man
drove his fish spear into it, and then another
belabored it on the head with an oar But
1T soon turned on them, put one huge paw
on the side Of the boat, which capsized it, and
with the other felled the poor man with the
oar Man and tiger disappeared together-at
least none of the others saw more of them.
They were all shot out by the capsizing boat,
and it was some little time before they were
picked up by other boats. That evening the
tigers body was washed up by the waves,
dead, and the next morning the poor mans
corpse, with the unmstakabe claw marks on
the back Of his neck. The others escaped un-
scathed with the exception of an awkward
blow on the ankle which one of them got from
the boat What possessed the tiger to 90 out

Mrs Louisa NJ. Boyd, wife of Leander Boyd
of Portsmouth, died of malignant pustue on
Friday, April 22d. The pustule first made its
appearance on the end of the fore finger of her
right hand, and after a time became so painful
that Mrs. Boyd had to take to her bed All
at once the pain in her finger ceased, and was
soon followed by a severe pain in the left side,
which at length extended all over her body,
and continued until she died. They opened
the finger, but found nothing seeming to justi-
fly the pain she had suffered in that member.

SCENE AT AN OPERA.-You have heard that
Mons. Roger, the King of Tenors, has found
his voice waning 1t is too true. The other
night he received one of those warnings
which never prove groundless, and the effect
on him was terrible. He was "singing" his
part in Herculaneum. By painful efforts he
managed to reach the third act. Before the
curtain rose on it the stage manager appeared
and begged the audience to be good enough to
be indulgent, as Mons Roger was not very
well. He came out. He tried to sing-again,
again; all was in vain, but could not summon
note. He took his crown and dashed it on
the stage, and ran to his dressmg-room more
crazy than sane. The lenient audience ap-
plauded and cried "Roger Roger Roger p
AT last he came back, wan, broken, weeping
like child. The audience cried, "Speak the
part, if this evening you are unable to sing it,"
Nine. Borghi Mamo took his hands and en-
treated him to become calmer. The audience
warmly applauded, and at last Mons. Roger
recovered his voice and sang his part But,
alas the assure has appeared in the plate
glass and little sooner or little later it will
be shiyered to atoms.-Pmis Correspondent of

IMPORTANT DEcIsIoN-A Philadelphia
correspondent of the Lancaster Union of April
18th says Zone OF the most extraordinary
decisions ever enuncated from the bench has
just been promulgated by the Supreme Court
of this State, and the whole business communi-
ty Of this city stands aghast at the CONSEQUENT
ces which must nevitably flow from it. The
case is so simple and compact that you will
have it all in a very small compass Some
twelve years ago one Chapman sold to two
very estimable gentlemen of this CITY, Messrs
Fell and Morris, two hundred shares of Buck
Mountain Coal stock, for which they paid him
in cash the price agreed on. Some years after
Chapman's death the two sons commenced a
suit in equity against Fell and Morris to recov-
er back from them the two hundred shares of
stock, alleging that the same had been held in
trust and that as the trustee had not applied
the proceeds of the sale To the uses of the trust
but had consumed them for his own individual
wants, the purchasers were consequently LA
BILE to them for the full value of the stock The
court decided in favor of the defendants and
the plaintiff appealed to the Supreme Court
1t was there attempted to be shown that the
purchasers of the stock not only knew that it
was held in trust, but knew also that the trtls-
tee was misapplying the proceeds. But on the
latter point the evidence showed that the heirs
actually received the proceeds of the sale
Yet, strange as it may appear, the Court re-
versed the decision below, and decreed the de-
PENDANTS, Fell and Morris, to pay back the full
value OF the stock, together with all dividends
and interest on the same, being more than the
plaintiffs demanded. This decision has pro-
duced deep alarm in the moneyed circles here,
and must unsettle many large transactions long
since believed to be closed up. 1t establishes
the principle that the purchaser from trustee,
whether Of stock, real estate, or merchandise,
trus:ee--a duty which few will trouble them
selves to undertake. If trust property is to be
governed by so strange doctrine as this, its
saleabe value must be greatly deprecated in
the estimation Of all who dislike the purchase
of law suit"
