Rev. Henry Ward Beecher in his last
lecture said: "The kindand patient Mr.,
Lincoln was cudgelled and whacked by
Congress, and he bore it with a patient
spirit, reminding him of some horses
who merely act when cudgelled as
though it was to brush the flies Off
When they commenced whacking Mr..
johnson, they found pair of heels
through the dashboard, and they took
to trees and bushes, crying, beast,
brute, but since then had cudgelled
more carefully"

puxz,esipAncient Philosophy,

Among other famous ancient dialec
tic problems are the following dilemmas
which are framed with wonderful in.
genuity, the acuteness displayed iu
their construction being unsurpassed
The first is called SyLogismus Crocod',
lus, and may be thus stated:
An infant, while playing on the bank
of river, was seized by crocodile
The mother, hearing its cries, rushed to
its assistance, and by her fearful en-
treaties obtained promise from the
crocodile, who was obviously Of the
highest intelligence that he would give
il back if she would tell him truly what
would happen to il On this the mother
perhaps rashly, asserted "You will
not give II back"
The crocodile answers to this: "lf
you have spoken truly, | cannot give
back the child without destroying the
truth Of your assertion; if you have
spoken falsely, | cannot give back the
child, because you have not fulfilled
your agreement Therefore, cannot
give it back, whether you have spakcn
truly or falsely" The mother rctorted.
If ! have spoken truly, you must give
back the child by virtue Of your agree
mcnt if have spoken falsely, that can
only be when you have given back the
child SO that, whether have spoken
truly or falsely, the child must be given
back" History is silent as to the is
sue Of this remarkable dispute.
Of a similar nature is the other exam
pie above mentioned, which is even
more ncutcly stated 4 young man
named Euathlus received lessons in
rhetoric from Protagoras, il being agreed
that certain fee should be paid If the
pupil was successful in the first cause
he pleaded. Euathlus, however, neg
lcctcd to undertake any cause, and
Proiagoras iu order to obtain his fec,
was compelled 10 sue him Euathlus
defended himself in court, and il was
consequently the young mans hrst suit.
The master argued thus If ! be
successful 10 this case O Euathlus, sou
will be compelled to pay by virtue OF
the sentence Of these righteous judges
and should even be unsucccsstnl you
will then have 10 pay me 10 fulhllmcn'
Of your original contract" To this the
ap, pupil replied "lfI be successful
q Master. shall b. free by tho sen.
tcnca Of those judges; and it ! be- uasuc.
cc.sful, | shall be free by virtuc OF ths
contract The story states that such
convincing arguments, thus diamctu
cally opposed, completely stagge red the
Judges. who. being quite unable f.
decide postponed the judgment s'n'

How Fowls ARE FED IN ENGLAND.
The London Times says that the feed
of the poultry, at the great poultry house
in Eaglaud, which is three hundred
feet long, the roost poles hollow and
filed with steam in cold weather to keep
the birds warm and promote their lay
ing, consists Of cabbages, green food aud
horseaesh twice oyery day. Sunday
cross grained barley; Monday, Indian
corn; Tuesday, oats; Wednesday, boiled
potatoes; Thursday, boiled rice, Friday,
mangel wurzel; and Saturday, mixed
grain. Add TO this handful of sharp
grit is sprinkled in all the food to pro.
mote digestion; that sulphate of iron is
put into the drinking water once, and
charcoal administered twice week, and
it will be seen that our high estimate
of the comforts enjoyed by these cocks
and hens is not overcharged. The floor
of each inner pen is covered with some
sifted soil some inches deep, while the
outer one has received plentiful sup.
ply of stable dung, each material being
carefully turned with spade twice in
each week.

A Clergyman Killed Going 10
a Funeral.

The la Crosse Republican has cor
respondent who was recently visiting at
West Bend { Wis when he learned the
following facts, which are substantiated
by Hon. F. o. Thrope, who resides at
West Bend.
On Saturday, the Sd inst, at West
Bend, the Rev. Mr.. Miller was called TO
go into the country few miles from
town to preach the funeral sermon of
Mrs. Lambert, who was supposed TO be
dead, She was arrayed in her funeral
attire and placed in her coffin. 1t ap-
pears that Mr.. Miller was the owner of
fractions horse, that was sometimes
unmanageable, and would run away
He was to pass through timbered
country, and On account of STOW drifts
the road was almost impossible, and
from this fact the horse succeeded in
throwing the minister from the cutter.
From appearances, Mr.. Miller was
thrown with great force upon large
oak stump that was filed with short
knots One of these knots came in con-
tact with aud severed the jugular vein.
When he was found, life was almost ex-
tinct from the loss Of blood Tie was
taken to the nearest house and medical
aid at once procured, but he only lived
a short time The cutter was found
some distance from where the accident
occurred, and the horse detached from
it. But the most singular development
of this sad and mysterious affair is yet
to be told Further information proves
that Mrs. Lambert was not dead, but
had been in trance for two days, pre-
scnting every indication that life had
departed She is now improving, and
expected soon to recover She states
that she could hear every word spoken,
and could realize the preparations her
friends were making for her funeral, but
could make no resistance or move mus
Gle Of her body, Her grave had been
dug. She now lives, and the minister
who had been called to preach her fu-
neral sermon now lies buried in the same
grave made 70 receive her last remains.
