SAGACITY OF THE MULE.-An in
cident occurred on the lst inst, IL
Illustrating the fact that mules are
not only the most sagacious of all
four-legged animals, but they
sometimes do things on purely
scientific principles. A drove of
about two hundred of these large.
minded beasts were brought to the
Illinois shore, opposite this city,
and it was concerted that the best
way to get them across was to
start them on the ice and let them
walk over. AS soon as they
reached the ice, instinct taught
them that they had embarked on q
dangerous journey; instantly the
oldest mule in the drove, one, too,
that has never been in a circus, and
had no education, took the lead,
and one at a time the whole two
hundred 'fell in" and followed
their leader in single file, with
safe spaces between, and thus
stretching themselves into long
line, they crossed the river. The
circumstance was witnessed by a
number of gentlemen who were
with the wonderful IL
lustration of mule sagacity.-&.

Last Trial of Fidelity.

Last Trial OF F1dehty.
An officer of the French army,
during the reign Of Napoleon,
having incurred the suspicion or
resentment of the Emperor,
thought it expedient to abandon
his country and take refuge in one
of the Austrian provinces, and
here he became advised of, and
initiated into a society, the object
of whose formation was to hurl to
the ground the Colossus whose arm
smote and governed the whole con-
tinent of Europe with a sceptre of
iron. One day a letter was
brought to him containing the u
sual signs and passwords of the So
ciety, and requiring him to re-
pair on the following night to a
secluded spot in the forest, where
he would meet some of his asso-
ciates. He went, but found no.
body. The orders were repeated
four times; the officer sought the
appointed place with no better
success than the first. On the
fifth night of his appearance at the
rendezvous, after waiting some
time, he was on the point of re-
turning, when loud cries arrested
his attention.
! Drawing his sword, he fastened
to the spot whence they seemed to
proceed, and was fired upon by
three men, who, on seeing that he
remained unwounded, instantly
took to flight; but at his feet lay a
bleeding corpse, in which by the
feeble light ofthe moon, he in vain
sought for tokens of returning an
imation. He was yet bending
over the dead man, when a de.
tachment of chasseurs, summoned
apparently by the noise of the
pistols that had been discharged
at himself, came up suddenly and
arrested him as the assassin. he
was loaded with chains, tried the
next day, and condemned to die
!, for his supposed crime. His ex
ecution was ordered to take place
at midnight. Surrounded by the
ministers of justice, he was led al
a slow pace, by the light Of torch
es, and the funeral tolling of bells
, to vast square, in the centre of
which was a scafold, environe6
by horsemen. Beyond these were
a numerous group of spectators
who muttered impatiently, and al
intervals sent forth cry of abhor
renee.
The victim mounted the scat
fold, and his sentence was read
, and the first act of the tragedy wa:
on the point of ful6lment, wher
an officer let fall word of hope
An edict had just been promulga
!, ted by the government offering
pardon and life to any condemned
criminal who should disclose the
members and secret tokens of &
particular association, the exist
ence of which the Frenchman tx
whom these words were addressed
, had lately become member. HI
!, was questioned, but he denied al
knowledge; they urged him to con
fess with promise Of additional re
: ward-his only reply was q de
mand for immediate death-ano
his initiation was completed.
! All that passed was a terrible
! trial of fidelity. Those who sur
rounded him were members Of the
society, and every incident thai
has been described, from the sum
mons to the last moment of ex
pected death, was only step in
! the progress of the fearful expert
ment by which was sought to de-
: termine the trustworthiness of the
