point just below the shoulder blades there are
two spinal columns. There are two heads.
two necks, two hearts, two sets of lungs, four
arms and four legs. The two heads converse

the same time, and sing together. She can
walk, run or dance, and is very lively. She
was born slave in North Carolina, and is

While an infant she was sold for one thou
sand dollars, and at the age of six or seven
she was sold again for five thousand Her
new owner then took her to England, and
made great deal of money by exhibiting her /;
but his speculation was brought to an unex-
pected termination. Her mother was still
alive in North Carolina, and another specula-
tor bought her, took her to England, and in
her name instituted legal proceedings for the
custody Of the child. The court of course SO
decreed, and thereupon the late owner offered
to deposit fifty thousand dollars to the credit
of the mother, if she would commit the child
to him again, and remain with it in England.
She declined the offer, saying, "What should
do with so much moneys / wish to return
with my child to North Carolina" Her
present owner then asked the mother in
what manner sire wished to live, and told
her he would conform to it. She then asked
for little cottage and patch of ground,
where she could raise her own chickens.
There she lives with her husband and five 9TH

PAINFUL AccIDEST.-The Clinton Courant
states that on Thursday last, as Mr.. Hiram
Crommette, at Towards livery stable in that
village, was cutting feed with cylinder hay
cutter, his fingers were drawn in, and three Of
them cut off just above the end joint. From
ono of them two pieces were severed. He was
in such agony that it was impossible to keep
his hands still enough to allow the proper sur
gical operations to be performed. Finally,
ether was administered, but only to craze and
make him more uncomfortable. He, however,
at length became easy, and passed a pretty
comfortable night. The same day, Mr.. Geo.
Hcnery, an operative at the Bingham Mills,
dislocated his shoulder joint as he was shout

CoRDwAINERs IN CoUNcIL.-The conven-

shoemakers in Massachusetts,, which was held

week, was undoubtedly intended to promote a

of compensation. The call was issued by the

choice of F. L. Forest of Weymouth, Presi-
dent, and A. r. Chesley of Stoneham, Secre-
tary. Among committees appointed for vari-
GUS purposes, was one to report an address to
the operative mechanics of the State and coun-
try, on the duties they owe to themselves and
their trades. They adopted resolutions, de-
claring that the time has come to demand just
compensation from employers; recommending
protective leagues and associations as the best
means of securing that compensation; hailing
with joy the action taken in forming leagues
and associations and pledging the convention
to use all proper efforts to secure success.

State Treasurer was expiring, aud when the
combined efforts of Democracy and Repubh-
oanism were put forth to secure the nomination
In the Republican ticket Of VIM III. Gibson
The wealth, sagaoity and influence Of Tuller
was needed, and what was then the germ Of tho

stone unturned by which l.e might be enabled
to defeat the swindle by defeating the nomi-

predicting the sad results which must en-
sue, are still i'm existence. For this course he
was subjected to persecution and hatred OF tho
most malignant form; himself and family tradu-

compelled 10 leave the community Thence he
removed to Pittsburg; still the malicious Sian.
