A Cow Story.

Among the travellers towards the west
ern part of Kansas this spring, were several
gentlemen from this city; and among these
were four or five, constituting separate par
", who started with fine cow. About two
weeks ago the friends in Alton, ILL.,, of one of
the members of the party received a letter
from him, dated kansas, two hundred miles
from home" in which he spoke of "old Brin-
dle"-saying that she made the party great
deal of trouble, &c.
\ few days after the receipt of his letter,
the gentleman to whom it was addressed,
living III Middlet0wn, was Hst0nished at find
ing, early one morning, IA cow exactly like
"old Brindle." standing at his gate He
could hardly believe the evidence of his own
eyes, but an examination convinced himself
and family that it was the very COW herself.
How long she remained with the party after
the time of writing the letter, two hundred
miles from home, is unknown Certain it is
thar she found her way home, across the coun-
try, for at least thnt dstance-nOt stopped
by rivers, creeks, swamps, or anything else.
The story seems fictitious bat it Is undenia-
bly, true, rs any one who wishes can assure
himseli.-Ihon CoUrier

A Sailors Fight.

FLORENCE. May %, ls59.-l am sorry to
hear that there has been distur bance in
Leghorn between some English and Amer-
can seamen. 1t appears that a body of the
latter were walking through the town, wear
ing the national tricnlor when they met some
of the men from the Conqueror not so adorned.
On whose side the fault lay know not, but
my informant, a Frcnchman. who was himself
on the spot at the time, told me that the
English attempted to despol the Americans
of their roscttes, and fight was the cOnse-
auence, in which the Livornesi, Of course
sided with the wearers of the tricolOr.-
Whatever course Eng may eventually
adopt, this is no moment for the display Of
any feeling that may tend to excite against
us still further the angry feeling OF Italy
The lower orders, to man, look upon our re-
fusal to join with France and Sardinia as Il
case of desertion, after the conduct Of the
latter Power in the Crimean war. The Llv-
ornesi, too, are the most excitable and un-
manageable race in Tuscany, The sight of
the Conqueror, anchored four miles out at
sea, is a daily cause Of exasperation.-Corr

fully equalled that Of any meeting of the

attend. This speaks well for the intelec-
tual, moral, and religious tone Of the COM

rienced the pardoning love of God in being

hall of the House of Representatives is in

length from seven to sixteen feet, will be ar
ranged a. seats for the members, and will

The Case of DR.. King.

A Story wiM Moral.-One of the most
remarkable cases in the criminal calender of
the day, is that of DIR. King. who was exccu-
ted at Coburg, Canada, on Friday last. The
particulars Of the scene are given among the
news of the day, but its moral may not inap-
propriatey he worth a word or two here.
This DR.. King, it seems, was Il man OF cdu-
cation and refinement. He moved in what
is called good society,"" and, from all that
we can learn, was the centre of Il numerous
circle of relatives and friends who thought
much, and made much of him. With his
wife he is said to have lived happily enough
until in an evil moment, certain young lady.
named Nandervoort, crossed his path To this
person he became passionately attached, and
the story is short--in order To marry her,
he poisoned his wife, was tried for murder,
convicted, and then sent to the gibbet, to pay
the penalty with his life.
Here is another exemplifcation of the
great truth that mere education is no safe
guard against crime. and that intellect with
out the sautary restraints of religion, is as
likely to prove bane rs a blessing TO the
possessor. N y. Express.

adverse position of Judge Douglas, on the
