Terrible Death Of q Tight ROpe
Performer.
From fhe Richmond

From the Richmond Wing, Nov 30I
Delane, whose real name is Thomas L.
Huntley, was advertised to appear at the
Wilmington theatre on Monday evening last,
in conjunction with Charley Whites Iron
Clads, in a tight rope performance. The
rope extended from the stage to the centre
gallery, forming steep ascent that it APP
pearcd almost impossible to walk. At the
appointed time, however, Huntlcy made his
appearance, and with the heavy balance
pole commenced his feat. lie walked with
great ease and success in the ascent, reach
ing the gallery amid the rapturous applause
OF the audience. In few moments he
turned to descend to the stage, but after
taking few steps he lost his foothold
and fell, but succeeded in gaining the gal
leryr Apparently becoming mortified ut
his partial failure, he remounted the rope
and attempted to descend to the stage back
wards: but after proceeding few feet from
the gallery he again lost his balance, and
then commenced a painful and thrilling
struggle for life. Finding that he would
probably fall from the rope, he threw his
balance pole into the dress circle, and, it is
supposed made an effort to spring into it
himself. He merely, however, touched it
with his feet, and was precipitated head
downwards, into the parquet below, the left
side Of the head striking the corner of
one Of the seats, frightfully crushing the
skull, and producing almost instant death.
The deceased was native Of Nashville,
Tennessee, where he leaves a widowed
mother, but has latterly been resident Of
Richmond, Virginia. He was aged between
nineteen and twenty years. This was his
second performance in public.

The Largest Organ In the United
States.

The new organ for the Rev. Henry Ward
Beechcr's chnrch, Brooklyn, will be complet-
by January next L. & G.. G. Hook Of Bos-
ton are the builders. This organ is the larg-
est ever built in America and costs twenty
five thousand dollars. The Boston Trareler
says Of it:
Several new features will be introduced in
this organ, which have never before been
brought into use in this country The chief
of these is the tuba marabilis, a reed stop
Of large scale voiced on very high pres
sure of wind. A gentleman who heard
this range of pipes tried on an organ in
England, says that the effect was tremen-
dous, and that in the grand chorus, at an
oratorio, it ovcrleaped and overfowered the
combined efforts Of the full organ and seve-
raj hundred singers and instruments. 1t
was beyond his power to describe. The
Messrs Hook have the exclusive control of
| the patent for this Improvement in America.
| The organ is to stand behind the pulpit,
and is to occupy the whole space from the
| cellar floor to the ceiling Of the church, and
| rising to the height Of and behind the pull
! pit will be the bellows chamber; and from
the pulpit level, forty feet upward, will rise
the magnificent front of the instrument it
self, the pipes of silver hue, the massive
polished woodwork Of black walnut
The breadth will be twenty seven feet, and
the depth twenty-one feet.
The front is to be in the Palladium style
Of architecture, a name derived from Pala-
dio, an Italian architect. 1t will be simple,
elegant and digniied, with nothing Of the
grotesque about it. A figure holding harp
will crown the instrument, and from above
each Of the side faces, will project in ray
shape, the trumpets Of the tuba marabilis,
above referred to, bending forward so as to
throw the sound over the audience.
The organ is to have five bellows of diff
ferent powers, 50 arranged as to regulate
the supply of wind by the demand The
number Of stops counting the registers that
work by pedals, is seventy six; aad here
another improvement comes in for working
the stops, that Of the pneumatic lever, one to
each stop. The pulling Of the stopkey opens
a valve which lets the wind into the partic
ular little bellows-lcver attached to that
stop, and that does the work of 'sstopping"
| with quickness and certainty, with only a
| mere touch on the part OF the operator
Still another improvement is the working Of
a series of pneumatic bellows for the whole
organ, 50 that the wind of the main bellows
does not work in answer to the slightest
touch Of the artist on the keyboard When
it is understood that in some great organs,
pressure of the finger equal to five or six
! or more pounds is required in some instan-
ces on single key, when all the manuals
and their connections are coupled, the value
Of this improvement will be seen at once.

AVOID SWEARING - An oath is the wrath
Of "A perturbed spirit.
1t is more a man of high moral standing
would rather treat an offence with contempt,
than show his Indignation by utteriug an
oath.
1t is vulgar. Altogether too low for a
decent man.
1t is cowardly; implying fear either Of
not being believed or obeyed.
1t is ungentiemanly. \ gentleman, ac-
cording to Webster, is gentecl MAXWELL
bred and refined.
1t is Indecent offensive to delicacy, and
extremely uulit for human ears.
1t is foolish. Want Of deccncy is want OF
sense.
1t is abusivc-to to the mind which conceived
the oath, to the tongue which uttered it. and
to the person to whom it is aimed.
1t is vcnomous; showing mans heart to
be as nest Of vipers. and every time he
swcars, one Of them starts out from his head.
1t is contemptble forfvitiug the respect Of

not hold him guiltless who takes His name in

of her son, which was supposed to be inferred
in the Government Cemetery near this city.
She proceeded to the grave yard. found the
name of her son on one of the boards. ex-
humcd the body and discovered that it was
not her son. proving that she was right from
the fact that her son had light hair and no
beard. aud the body disinterred had black
hair and q full set Of whiskers. The singu-
