Curing II Wife.

Mr.. .Diml;ght, for the past two years. has
prayed every day that his wife would tum
Bile down stairs and break her neck, or else
die like Christian in her bed. .4n@1y.# II
! The simple reason for this u.s. that Mrs.
Dinlighs was fond of complaining, taking
medicines, and having protracted interviews
With the docter, all Of which required mo,
ney, and money Mr.. Dimlig ght hated to part
with. z~ .-3 ~ - ~:.~. =
In fact, he had much rather part with
Mrs. Dimlight but the lady manifested no
intention of leaving this pleasant world and
taking up her abode in an uncert ain sphere.
Neither did she say that she would live
leaving Her lord N an uncertain ssass,sand
her physician in perp!exed condition.
The doctor said she wanted rousing, and
Mr.. Dim!ight thought that he would dc
something to start her and get her out Of
bed. :t.. .:>...- -
lie hit upon plan which he thought
would operate in very satisfactory man
ner.
Mrs. Roundwinck acted in the capacity
Of nurse to Mrs. Dimlight. Mrs. R. is a
widow, pretty and coquetish. For hand
some presnt she resolved to enact the part
that Dimlight marked out for her; so one
evening, when Mrs. Dimlight was groaning
and threatning to die, Dimlight called IN
the widow.
She is going to kick the bucket at last,
said the husband, so you and may as well
fix things so we can start + ir.'
Mrs. Dimlisht turned her head and stop
per! moaning. Her eyes began to assume
an unnatural briiliancy, The parties in The
room took no notice Of her.
. Yes said Mrs. Roundwinck, 'sho is 90
ing fast. Now we can talk over our own
IafarS.'
Mrs. Dilnlight raised herself in bel, and
sat bolt upright. She listened attentively,
and her eyes grew brighter.

around the substantial waist Of Widow
Roundwinck.

week or two smpered Mrs. R. as she
lovingly rcposed on the breast Of The alfvc

Mrs. DimIight uttered an exclamation
which sounded like an oath, and giving ono
spring landed on the floor.
You think | am going to die. do you ?
she yelled. 'rll see you hanged first r.!

And from that day there was rapid i'm

no longer tolerated nurses but one ca

Statement of y Contraband.

New YORK, Nov. IA Washington
despatch says: A contraband who left Gen
louisville on Monday morning, says that
the whole rebel force encamped on the Rail.
road above Gordonsville, having reerossed
the Rapidan on Saturday, and on Sunday
they were making arrangements for winter
quarters, but for the last day or two quite
a panic was created by stories of Meade ad-
vancing upon them in immense force. They
have a large amount of stores at Gordons-
vile and at Madison. He says large
cavalry force was sent Westward to attack
Burnside before Lee made his movement
Northward in October.
Small bands of armed guerrillas infest the
whole country north of the Rapidan, but
our cavalry failed to find any large body of
rebels.
A Washington special to the Post says:
There is but little important news to-day.
1t is reported that the rebels mepaced by
Meade's advance have retreated to Gordons
vile, and that Gen. Lee is in the South
west.
Gen. Burnside's forces are concentrated
in and about Knoxville, Teun.
The members of the diplomatic corps in
his city freely express tie opinion that
war in Europe next year is inevitable. 1t
IS understood that the position Of Russia
towards France and England is naughty
and is likely to continue so.

Lord Lyons to the Gov. Gen. OF
Canada.

BUFFALO, Nov. 1.-THE following was
received to day:
WASHINGTON, Midnight.-1o the Mayor
of Bufalo:-The British Minister, Lord
Lyons, has tonight officially notified the
Governor General of Canada that there is
reason to believe that a plot is Oh foot by
persons who have found an asylum in Can
ada to invade the United States and de-
stroy the city of Buffalo, that they propose
to take possession of some steamboats, on
Lake Erie, to surprise Johnson's Island and
set free prisoners of war confined there and
proceed with them to Buffalo. This Gov
ernment will employ all the means in its
power to suppress any possible approach
from Canada, but as other towns and cities
on the shores of the lake are exposed to
the same dangers it is deemed proper to
communicate this information to you in
order that any precautions which circum-
stances of the case permit may be TAKEN
The Governor General suggests that steam
boats or other vessels giving cause for sus-
picion by the number or character OF
the persons on board shall be arrested.
You will please acknowledge the receipt of
this telegram and communicate to this dc
partment any information you may now or
hereafter have on this subject.

CINCINNATI, Nov. l2,-Considerable ex-
element prevails in the northern part OF
this State in consequence of an anticipated
attack on Johnsen's Island by an expedition
of armed steamers fitted out for that pur-
pose in. Canada Facts SO far as ascertained

Government officers have received intor-
nation upon what is considered unquestlon'
ably reliable authority, that two or more
armed vessels have been fitted out by rebels
and rebel allies in Canada to attack John
sons Island in Sandusky Bay, and release
the rebel prisoners confined there, number
ing some 1000. This accomplished they
intend with the aid of the released prison
ers to attack aud destroy if possible San
dusky, Buffalo and other prominent cities
on Lake Erie. Active and energetic pre-
cautionary measures have been taken by the
Government to render Johnson's Island Sc
cure against an attack should one be made
Troops and batteries have been ordered
there from several points in this State yes

RELEASED FROM PRIsoN.-We learn from
he GAINESVILLE Courier that Sergeant lin
of the 62d Ohio Regiment, arrived at his
home in this city laat week. He was
wounded and taken prisoner near Charles
ton, in the attack on Fort Wagner; and was
compelled to submit to the amputatlon OF
his arm. Since his release and arrival IN
New York, the stump of his arm was dis
covered to be so much infamed that to save
his life it had to be reamputated. The
Door fellow has suffered dreadfully and
looks much the worse for wear. Whilst in
the hands of the rebels he received con
siderable kindness, though as their means
