Extraordinary Sailing-The Wherry Man
Hr- ? OutdOne.

The Newport (R. I.) Ne,cs states that
half-deck, one-mast sailboat, called the
Mirage, arrived at that port on Tuesday
from Norfolk, Va, which place she left Mon
day, September 3, having made the passage
in eight days. Her "officers and crew" were
Captain S. Dayton, her owner, young man
who having a mind for pleasure-trip to
Newport, devised this novel method of ac-
complishing it. The boat not being pro-
vided with the conveniences for a stove, his
supply of provisions for the 'voyage" was
laid in ready cooked, consisting Of bread,
corned beef, &c, with supply of water to
wash it down. His manner of sleeping was
to lower his sail, "stop' it down, hang out
light, turn in, and, to use his own expression,
"iet her roll" His sleeping accommoda-
tions consist of blanket spread upon the
bottom of the boat, under deck, with pillow
for his head .E r- -
He does not mention having made harbOr
but once, which was at Greenport East end
of Long Island, Saturday, after the setting
in of the violent northeastern which prevailed
here. From there he got under weigh Sun
day morning, and during the day the boat
was knocked over by squall, when thirty
six miles from land, filling 1t half full OF
water, and washing every thing movable of
the deck overheard, including his oars. The
whole distance sailed was about 500 miles
and Captain Dayton estimates the sailing
time OF the voyage at seventy-ive hours
The dimensions Of the boat are-length
twenty-five feet, breadth nine feet. Captain
DAYTON designs visiting Providence with bis
boat during his stay, and retarning to Nor
folk by way of Long Island Sound, thence
by sea from Sandy Hook to the Capes o
Virginia.

A Young Woman Gains a Prize in n PlOw-
ing-lInteh.

A rather unusual circumstance occurred at
a plowing-match which lately took place at
Vaugueray, Rhone, young woman, about
nineteen, driving pair of oxen, presenting
herself as one of the competitors. AT first
some objections were raised as to her admis-
sion, but, under the peculiar circumstances
of the case, they were set aside. Marie
Chirat, which is the name of the Young girl
in question, had the misfortune to lose her
father about ten months ago. He had q
lease of q farm at rent of 1000 francs a
year, and when he died left widow, little
boy and Marie. The daughter, feeling that
to quit the farm in the middle of the lease
would be the ruin of the family, told her
mother not to be cast down, for that she
would undertake to work the land. She
applied herself strennously to the work, and
was soon pronounced the best conductor OF
plow in the commune. The opinion was
confirmed at the public competition, as the
principal prize was awarded to her. She
returned home in triumph to her mother,
accompanied by party of her female
friends, who presented her with large bou-
! quet. This incident produced a very deeI
impression among the crowd Of persons a
the meeting, who manifested the highest
respect and even veneration for a girl who
from a feeling of sincere deyotedness to. hei
family, had adopted an occupation 50 con-
trary to her habits and education. a'z

The trade at the provincial corn markets

improvement, varying from one shilling to

LORENZO, THR MAGNIFIcENT-HIs EXTRA
ORDINARY INooNsIsTENoY.-A strange ex-
istence, truly was that of Lorenzol After
working with all the power Of his intellect
and his win at the making Of the new laws
which should crush ont some last remnant OF
liberty, latter using his influence TO obtain
sone new decree of confscation or sentence
of death,--he would enter the Platonic
Academy, and dispute with Yehemence or
yirtue and the Immortality of the soul
issuing thence, and mingling with a COM
pany of utterly deprayed young men, he
Would sing his "Canti Carnascialeschi," or
Carnival songs (of infamous celebrity and
give himselfu up to wine and women; then
return home again, and at table, in the
Society of Pulci and Politian, recite verses
and discourse on poetry; and to each OF these
pursuits he gave himself up so wholly, that
each seemed to be the sole aim Of his life.
But the strangest thing of all js, that in the
midst of such multiform existence, not q
single action can we find stamped with true
| virtue and generosity, either toward his
people, his intimates, o. his kindred; and

Another Pen Portrait OF GaribaIdl-The
Italian Dictator on ShipbOard.

Italian Dictator on ShipbOard.
An Englishman who made the voyage
from Messina with Garibaldi, on board the
transport Amdran, gives this account of the
appearance and manner of the man:
Painting and sweltering all of US were,
idle and listless enough; but the General
moved among the various groups upon deck
with kind and apt word for each of them,
evincing that readiness of recognition, that
perfect accuracy of recollection, that memory
of men and things and circumstances, how
ever trifing, which are ranked among the
innate privileges of royalty. He had on his
usual dictatorial suit, consisting OF the ull-
failing flannel shirt with silk bandanna
kerchief thrown loosely and widely round
the neck by way of a scarf light gray
trousers, and the modern wide-a-wake hat
with the turn-up-brim.
The prodigious breadth of the Generals
shoulders, his colossal chest, and the natural
dignity and liOn-like majesty Of his counte-
nance, again and again incline a beholder to
overrate his real stature, which is certainly
not above the middle size. You must go
near him, and measure him by the standard
of common men, before you recover from the
error into which awe for that commanding
figure leads you. The hair, on nearer in
spection, is dark hazel, almost black, darker
by far than the beard, which is tawny or
reddish. He wears the halr ratner long.
The beard is full, and relieves the length OF
the oval face, which might otherwise be
| thought excessive. The temples are some
what compressed about the region of the
eyes, and very strong oblique depression is
observable about theIeyebrows. The cheek
| bones are high, and the nose comes down
between them in perfectly straight long
line, even with the slightly slanting fore
head, The complexion of that small part Of
the face which is not hidden by the beard is
not merely bronzed or sunburned-it has {
peculiar sanguine hue, thickly studded will
endless freckles This remarkable tint thu
features, the color of the beard, joined 4
the calm, but deep expression of the darl
eye, all contribute to give his countenanct
that unmatched character which won fo
Garibaldi the aDpellation of the 'Lionface.

The Microscope as "a Means of Detecting
Crime,


Crime.
Some time since read an article relative
to man who was convicted of murder chiefly
by the evidence collected by the wonderful
powers of the microscope. A case somewhat
similar came under my own knowledge. In
1925, youth resided in a small town in
Loudon County, Virginia, who was a bar
keeper of tavern; he became confirmed
gambler. He set off one day on horseback
on travelling tour, with person whom he
knew to have in his possession large sum
of money, and before he started, armed him
self secretly with pistol, at the muzzle of
which small dagger was attached. On
Saturday night they arrived at Centerville,
in Fairfax County. After supper they left
the house, and in q short time the young
man returned without his companion. When
the landlord asked for him, the answer was
Sam his keeper 2' the ominous reply of the
first murderer" About daylight next morn
ing he was seen crossing a field where the
corpse was found perhaps day or two after
ward. He returned to his residence on Sun
day, and conversed with him within thirty
hours after his hands were reeking with
blood; he seemed gay and cheerful as ever.
He was arrested on suspicion, and in his
trunk was found the pistol, which, to the
naked eye, displayed no marks Of blood.
When, however, the microscope was ap-
piled, it was clearly visible, and also very
small portion of one of the hairs of the dead
mans whisker, which was Of red color. He
was taken off, accompanied by a lawyer, who
was unsurpassed in physical and moral cour-
| age by any other man ever knew. When
| they arrived at CenterVille, the excitement
was tremendous. All were clear that he
was Iguilty; some said that if the accused
would touch the corpse it would bleed. On
On hearing this Representation, his counsel
| compelled him to come upstairs and touch
the cold body, in order TO do away the sus-
picion. He now appealed to the Court in
eloquent terms that his client was innocent
because no blood issued from either Of tho
| eighteen wounds. TH.
Long after this his trial came on at tht
country town of Fairfax, before Judge DadC
and an impartial jury of his own selection
The testimony was entirely circumstantia
and indirect. But when the different link
of the chain were put together, it pointed
with fatal certainty to the prisoner. Th
microscope helped greatly in tightening tn
rope around his neck.
That little fraction of hair, mixed will
blood, connected with some of the identife,
money of the deceased, and other circum
stances not now recollected, brought tn
guilty youth to the gallows. Afterward
appeared that the murdered man lay on tn
ground through the whole night mortal
wounded, but was able to implore and be
his pursuer on Sunday morning to spare hi
life; but acting on the principle shat th
dead tell no tales" he stabbed him seventee
times until death closed the scene.-M

SUPPOSED TRANoE IN THE SoUTH.-The
New Orleans Bee, of late date, says "There
was considerable talk in the city concerning
two cases where funerals had been post
poned, one in the First and the other in the
Second District, on account of the bodies re-
tanning their warmth, and stories were rife
Of their being in state of trance. In both
cases dissolution has settled the fact OF DEATH
and the cause Of this unusual warmth has
been explained on natural reasons by the
physicians the heat of the weather and in,

causes ~ mn. @ .aft
