long time engaged in trying shoes before
he could find pair to fit. Meantime an
other gentleman came in to buy a pair of
boots. He soon found pair, which he
drew on, and which fitted exactly. and
while he was thrusting his hands into his
pockets for the ready" the shoe mr.
chaser darted off with the shoes without
either payment, or even saying as much as
''by your leave, sir" "The Villain eT-
claimed the boot purchaser and the boot
maker, in the same breath, and both osve
chase. The man in the new boots how
ever, had the best wind and the eIeanest
heels He soon shot ahead of Crispin,
while the latter urged him to push for

no need OF urging. The shoes turned the
corner, the boots followed. and. for anv-
thing Crispin knows, they are pursuing

The pirate Shenandoah arrived in Mer-
sey on the 9Th inst. and surrendered to the

Waddell states that the first information re-
ceived of the close of the war was on the
30th of August, from the British war vessel
Barraeouta, and that he Immediately con-
signed the guns to the hold and steered for
Liverpool
The Daily News says that the Americans
may be inclined to say that it was only fit
ting that her end should be as British as her
origin, but the Daily News cannot hely ask
ing how tn Shenandoah has BEEN able
to pursue her course without the least inter
upton from the American navy. Can it be
possible the expectations of receiving COM
pensation from losses resulting from her
depredations, from England, made the
American government less eager for her
capture.
If the world should come 10 that concIu-
sion it would be one of the strongest practi-
cal arguments against the admission of such
liabilities as Secretary Siward is now en-
deavoring 10 establish against England. 1t

\ very singular accident occurred YES
terday at the piano warerooms of j. Bauer
" Co, in Broadway, by which a young
man named George Some, who is an en-
ployce of the establishment, was seriously
injured and narrowly escaped dislocation
of the neck. So remarkable are the facts
of the case, that we give them in detail as
related by an eyewitness. AT noon yes

containing a partially packed upright

are familiar with the construction of the
upright will understand that when
placed in its box for transportation an
open space exists above the keyboard and

guard against marring, the young man

ceosIFcly weary, he soon feIl THUU Urr7rf rvrrv4
heavy slumber. He was missed when the
packers returned, but his whereabouts not |
suspected. The lid of the box which goes |
on noiselcssly with screws, was placed in |
Il position and secured without disturbing
him, the package finally marked and
swung off into the hatchway-as ill-luck
would have it, with the boy head down
wards. In this position, and in a half
smothered condition, the youth found him
self on being rudely awakened. 1t was
long before he could make himself heard
by his fellow worllmen, and the case had
reached truck in waiting below before
the noise he made with cries of distress
were fully understood. Even then, al
though the poor fell9w was released as soon
rs possible some moments, of necessity,
elapsed before he could be got out, and
then insensibility had resulted. Though
bruised about the head and shoulders,
badly strained in the back, and nearly suf-
located he finally revived, and was care
fully conveyed to his home at Harlem.
Physicians who gave him hasty but

very severe, and his escape is little less
