SUBS AND BAPTIsM.-A correspon-
dent writing to New York paper
from Norwich, Ct, says "I must tell
you a good joke, with which all Nor
wich is ringing. Sunday before last
the Baptists were to have a grand eel
ebration; quite number Of persons
were to be baptised, not in the river,
but in large pool sunk in the floor of
the church under the pulpit, which is
on wheels and capable of being rolled
away. 1t was All extraordinary occa-
sion, and the house was crowded with
Episcopalians, Congregationalists and
Methodists as we'll as the Baptists
themselves. The opening services
were gone through with, the pulpit was
rolled away, and the minister, with
one of the candidates, approached the
pool and commenced descending the
steps. Suddenly they paused, then
held hurried consultation, made a re-
treat, and it was announced that the
ceremony would be postponed till eve
ming. The rest Of the services were
more diverted than edited, for, before
the service was ended, the whole con-
gregation had learned that the pool
was half full of dirty soap suds, and
various were the surmises as to how
they got there. In the course Of the
day it leaked out that the sexton had
taken a bath there Saturday night, and
forgotten to let off the water! Imag-
inc the jokes at the expense ofthe Bap-
fists"

Marriage in Sicily.

The restrictions which make solitude
in the world painful to ladies do not
apply with equal force to women of in.
ferior rank; few Of them whether they
marry or not, leave the world; they
have plenty to do in ii, and seem quite
satisfied with their lot Carmela, hav.
ing had no broken matches, has given
me but scanty information concerning
pupular courtships and marriages.
The parents settle the match between
themselves, and then refer to the young;
l need not say that in England the
Young people settle it first, then refer
to the old. However, compulsion, is,
l believe, quite of the question. The
marriage being agreed upon by all
parties, it is solemnized either IN the
open day, proceeding held, shame
less, barefaced, or at twilight, when
the bride steals out to church, escorted
by few friends. She is dressed in
her best, has plenty of chains and rings,
and wears gold spandella and flow
ers in her hair We once met one of
these decorous twilight birds, and
very pretty and modest she looked,
leaning on the arm of her father, who
grayely scattered sugar plums to the
boys i'll the street. She was going to
the cathedral, and the bridegroom was
invisible. In Rome they make sure of
being never seen, by marrying at four
in the morning, which must make the
wedding day rather tedious. The Sor-
rento sposo does not leave her new
home for a week, during which she all
but invisible; after this she appears once
more, and acts her useful part. I am
sorry to say that italian wives are not
very happy. Their husbands rarely
trust or honor them; they treat them
like children, and are as jealous as
Turks, an Italian wife rarely knows
the price Of anything, not even of
meat and vegetables, for it is the man
who buys even in the middle Glass;
A Roman wife told me that, when she
married she could not have five boioc-
chi without her husbands knowledge.
He was kind and fond of her, but mis-
trustful and jealous. In Sorrento, and
in all the south, it is still rule that a
peasant woman, though taught how to
read must not know how to write; the
reason is Of this if these frail and
dangerous creatures knew how to
write, they would indite love-letters at
once.-tS,tnanae7 and Winter IN the
Too Scilies.

An ATTACHMENT A very amiable
and modest widow lady lived in a GER
tain county. Soon after the husband
had paid the debt of nature, leaving
her his lesate, claim was brought
against the estate by the brother, and
a process served upon her by the sber-
iff of the county, who happened to be
wldower of middle age. She was
much alarmed, and meeting with a fe-
male friend, she EXCLAIMED with agita-
ton, ''What do you think? the sheriff
has been after me - "Wen," said the
considerate lady, with perfect GOODNESS,
che is very fine mans 'sBut he saws
he has an attachment for me-" replied
the widow. ''Well, I have long sus-
pected that he was attached to you,
my dear" ''But you don't understand
he says must go to court" 'Oh
that's quite another affair, my child
don't you 60 so far as that-it is his
place to come and court vou.'

How THE DEVIL Losr.-The Devil

How THE DEVIL LosT.-The Devil
bargained for the soul Of young man.
The Devil was to furnish all the money
Young America could spend, and if
he did not spend it as fast as it came
his soul was the forfeit. For several
years Young America kept ahead OF
the Devil by the aid of women, wine,
horses, ETC., but the fend made large
deposit with him, which it seemed i'm
possible to get rid of. Young America
as last resort, started a newspaper.
The Devil growled at the bill at the
end Of a quarter, was savage at SIX
months, sad at nine, and owned up
"dead broke" at the end Of a year
The newspaper went down, bHt soul
was saved.

Whereas, 1t hath been represented
to this General Assembly that the lu.

it not the glorious and immortal New,
ton that enveloped and deplored the
cause of? And, whereas, said lunary
orb is known to be quite destitute OF
inhabitants, except a single individual
commonly known as the ssman in the
moon;' therefore, in order to carry out
the evil designs of Providence, and the
manifest destiny Of this great republic,
and also to increase human nature, by

A Strong Hint-"A Warming"

A SHOWER OF SULPHUR.-Onen night
during the past week we had a very
heavy rain, accompanied with thunder
and lightning. In the morning very
curious and strange phenomenon was
presented to view, in the shape of a
coating of what looked exactly like the
flour of sulphur, spread over every
thing. We noticed it about town, and
upon inquiry, learned that it extended
for miles al ound us, in every direction
1t was plainly to be seen on fence rails,
cotton-stalk, chips, pieces Of glass,
brick-bats, ETC., and looked just if
some one had strewn -four Of sulphur
over everything before a shower of
rain, which afterwards washed it off
on the most exposed places. We
should be glad to have some Of our phi
losophers explain the cause Of this un-
usual shower Hiss, Star.
The explanation is simply this: The
Lower Mississippians have had "a
warning" The land of tire-eaters is
spoken for-no mistake. Whe n
Northern people told them what they
were coming to, they laughed; but it
appears, by the above item from a
Southern paper, that they begin to
smell sulphur. Let it pour until the
whole south shall have been purified
of its chad blood" Would to God
that some of our Northern dough
faces might get caught in the show
er.

A Terrific Cat Fight.


The following poem, from the San
Francisco Golden Era, is not only
Homeric in style but complete in itself,
for it ends with the total annihilation
of the combatants
s'On pine wood shed, in an alley
dark, were scattered moonbeams, sift.
ing through row of tcttsring chin
neys and on awning torn and dropping,
fell, strobe back end forth, with stiff
and tense drawn muscle and peculiar
tread, a cat.
His name was Norval; on yonder
neighboring shed his father caught the
cats that came in squads from streets
beyond. Dupont, in search of food
and strange adventure
Grim war he courted; and his twist
ed tail, and spine uphea7ing in fantas-
tic curve, and claws distended, and
ears fatty pressed against head
thrown back defantly, told OF impcnd-
ing strife.
With eyes agleam, and screechine
blasts of war and steps as silent as the
falling dew, young Norval crept along
the splintered edge, and gazed mo-
ment through the darkness down, with
a tail awag triumphantly.
Then with an impression and a growl
perhaps an oath in direct vengance
hlssed-he started back, and crooked
in body like letter S, or rather like a
U inverted, stood in great expectancy.
Twas well. With eye-balls glaring
and ears all as!ant, and open mouth in
which two rows Of fangs stood forth in
dread conformity, slow up post from
out the dark below head appeared.
A dreadful tocsin of determined strife
young Norval uttered; then, with face
unblanched, and moustache standing
straight before his nose, and tail flung
wildly to the passing breeze, stepped
back in cautions invitations to the foe
Approaching the other, with prepar-
ations dire, each cat surveyed the ad-
vantage of the field. Around they
walked, with tails uplifted and backs
high in the air, while from their mouths,
In accents Kissing with consuming rage,
dropped brief but awful sentences Of
hate.
Thrice round the roof they went in
circle, each with eye upon the foe in
tently bent; then sidewise moving, as
is wont with cats, gave one long drawn,
terrific, savage, yaw, and buckled in.
The fur flew. A mist of hair hung
Ger the battle field. High above the
DIN OF passing wagons rose the dread
ful tumult Of the struggling cats. SO
cleaned their eyes in phrenzy, that to
me, who saw the conflict from a Win
dow near, naught else was plain but
fiery stars that moved in orbits most
eccentric.
An hour they struggled i'll tempes-
tous might, then faint and fainter grew
the squall of war, until all sound was
hushed. Then went / forth with Ian
tern, and the field surveyed. What
saw |?
Six claws-one car-of teeth, per-
haps handful; and, save fur, naught
else except solitary tail. That tail
was Norvafs-by a ring I knew't t.
The ear was-but we'll let the matter
pass. That tail will do without the
/ ear.

PADDY's PIG.-As shadow to all
these sunny Southern light. I must
here mention that did meet with few
extraordinarily mean men in Sidney
There was one, amerchant prince, who
made it boast that he had never given
away shilling IN his life. So far as I
know, he only departed from his ex-
treme seltishness on one occasion, and
the circumstances are worth relating
One morning, a poor Iishman stepped
into his counting-house, and, looking
the very picture of misery, said, "Oh
may it please yer honor, I've lost pig
the only pig l had-and Mistress
-, the governess has given me a
pound, and sent me to you for another
She says you have gold enough to build
a sty wild, and will be sure to give a
little" At first old hard faced refused;
upon which, Paddy threw himself upon
stool, and raised such piteous wall
that the merchant, thinking he was mad
about the death of his pig, gave him a
pound to get quit of him. Next day
the proprietor of the defunct porker
was passing the warehouse, and seeing
his benefactor at the door, he pulled
his hat to him. "Well, did you get
drunk with that pound, or buy another
pig?" asked the rich man grufly.-
Bought another pig, yer honor-a
darling little thing, wild sweet twist
in his tail, like a lady's curl" "Well,
it's hoped that you will take better care
of him than you did of the other
What did he die OFF" ssDie of? Did
you say now? Why git out wild ye,
he was SO fat killed him !-.Souther7a

gB A poor young man once fell in
