A RELIo.-In the year 1898, Daniel Row,
ell, one of the pioneers of Western Virginia,
being pursued by Indians, hid his gun under
a red-oak log, to facilitate his escape. Last
week, one of his descendants found the gun
near the Kanawha, after lapse ofsxty years
The barrel was not materially injured, the
trigger whole, the springs in the proper
place, heavy brass guards, muzzle- piece and
thimble, a brass box with the words--"L Liberty
or death, engraved upon it. The muzzle
fthe gun had grown fast to a dogwood
bush, and had been carried up by its growth

The HTNDoos Mr.. Gangooly, conver-
ted Brahmin. is lecturrng at New York He
says the Hindoos are divided into thirty -four
castles, of which Brahmin in the highest, and
the banker, the gold smith, and shoemaker
among the lowest. The Blacksmith is of a
high caste, because of his usefulness. TIA
Brahmin eats animal food he loses his caste,
which he can never regain. The birth of a
male child was always made the occasion of
great rejoicing, while the birth of female
child was hardly noticed. The mother of
five or six girls was always the subject of
scorn and derisions, and never went into So
ciety.
There were but three castes IN India that
could not read or write. The strictest atten-
ton is given to the education of boys in In
dia, while girls never go to school, The dis
ciplne of Brahmin life in some instances was
grand. A Brahmin rises as early as o'clock
walks out and gathers flowers, and bathes
before the sun rises if the sun sees one of
this class in bed, the fourteen generation OF
his ancestors will be punished in eternity
Brahmins must keep silent while at the ia
BILE; if they speak while eating, they are
obliged to go without food the entire day.

GAmTY THEATRE-MISs DAyENPORT.-The houses
have been excellent throughout the first week Of this
ladys engagement and this too, in spite Of very I'M
IA durable weather during the last two three days
The plays have been NEEDED, Adrielaae LecOuuTelT,
Mesaianee, The Lady Of Lyons and Charlotte COrldy.
OF these plays we consider the first two furnish
ing the best occasions for the exhibition of Miss
DAvENPoRr's great qualities as actress they may
be considered as fair specimens of the classic and
romantic schools of tragedy respectively. The
former the school Of the Greek tragedians renders
every thing subseryient to the development of a
single great and overpoweling passion, the latter
delights in the succession and rapid contrast of
hicting emotions. The classic school is character
ised by the mmobity and stern simplicity of seulp
ture the romantic by the delicate play of light and
shadow, and the gorgeous coloring which associate
it with painting Into the spirit Of both these
schools Miss DAVENPORT enters with wonderful ener
gy. In the IIe5e4 she wraps herself in the gloomy
pride and selftorturing resentments of that great
conception of ancient tragedy as in tragic pail and
stalks frowningly amodg the festivals and pageai
OF the Corinthian court implacabe as destiny,
the same unbending though sorrow-stricken shadow
of the once mighty soreeress as she shows herself
in the first scene. In AdrieTRe on the other hand.
she is alternately fierce and tender, playful and
severe loving ondly terrible in her anger touching
in her sorrow, sublime in her death,-presenting
after another every phase in the varied tissue
of woman's love, which is womans life But in both
plays have that perfect realization of the char
acter she represents, together with the faculty Of
expressing intense passion in all its forms which
constitute actress Of the highest class.
1iesalRance and Charlotte Corlds we look upon
rather as concessions to the demandfor novelty than
as plays which challenge criticism upon their own
merits. Both of them, however, abound in situa-
tons that give scope for talent Of the highest order,
andaYbere might be disposed to think lightly Of
the author compelled to admire The actress,
Fhe d-NOselaent Of McsQlidnce, however, calls i'm
peratvely for alteration; the author evidently got
tired Of his plot before he had worked it out.
1t was worth while for Miss DAVENPORT to appear
as PAULINE, IN the Lady Of Lyons that she might
show what freshness true genius throw into a
part which has been worn threadbare by the con-
ventional tradiuonary style in which every actress
above the business of a second walking lady tries
her hand on BUIwER'S unfortunate play.
Miss DAVENPORT appears Monday night in the
part Of Lconi Arnauld.
