Mr.. Stephens said in his speech. there was

rejected, as the Constitutional Amendment
was, he would not say that restricted fran
chise might not follow, or that Congress
might go no further. even to taking from the
men OF large wealth, who oppressed the mas
ses, portion of their vast estates. In con-
clusion, he asked them to believe that this
is the language be would have spoken in Mo
bile, had the people listened to him, and he
assured them that q they read in the papers
about using exaspetating or offensive words,
were merely creations of the imagination.
Judging from the cordial reception which
the Judge met with at its conclusion, and
openly expressed accordance with his views,
it would appear that he made some converts
amongst the ex- -coDfederates, and all doubtful
believers in the Military Bill.

BARNUMs GoRILLA.-The gorilla recently
placed in Barnum's Museum gave, on the
afternoon of the 29th ult. an exhibition Of
his natural ferceness, by attacking his keep
er, Professor Dawson. Fortunately, the
latter escaped without serious injury, and, nj
the same time, without giving the gorilla an
opportunity to practically demonstrate to the
incredulous whether he has sufficient power
to tear a man to pieces. A temporary guard
is placed in front of the cage of the gorilla,
to keep venturesOme persons from going 81
near that the animal can reach them. Inside
of this railing Professor Davis, stands, for
the purpose of attending the gorilla, answer
ing questions of spectators, etc. 1t is also a
part of his duty to feed the gorilla, and it
would be supposed, from this fact, that he
would be quite free from attack. 1t has
proved otherwise, however. On the after
noon mentioned, as Mr.. Dawson was in his
accustomed place, he ventured too near the
bars of the cage, within reach of the monster
The hand of the animal instantly grasped
Davison's right arm. Professor Dawson
almost instantly dropped to the floor, so as to
| bring the hand of the gorilla to the floor of
the cage, before he could grasp him with his
other hand. To remain standing would have
given the gorilla an opportunity to pull the
arm out of the socket, if he had the power.
which Dawson processes to believe The
| grip of the animal slipped from the arm of
| Mr.. Dawson. but still retained hold of the
coat. As the keeper fell, the beast held his
whole weight at arms length, with apparent
ease. Professor Dawson quickly threw of
his coat, which was torn to shreds by the
gorilla. The affair caused much excitement
| for a few moments. Professor Dawson was
! slightly injured.

A HUMAN BoDY PETRIFIED.-A woman,
wife of blacksmith who formerly lived on

grounds on the hill. Last week her friend
went there for the purpose of removing the
body. On opening the grave, the coffin
crumbled to pieces, ana the body lay there as
whole as when deposited. The skin was
black, and covered with a substance similar
to moss and presented a moldy appearance
On feeling the body it was found to be quite
hard, and further examin alton developed
the fact that it was petrifed The black
surface was seraped off the skin, when the
latter presented a beautiful white appear
ance, similar to that of our marble. This is
a truly remarkable circumstance. and elicits
the wonder of all who have heard it. Our
informant says a coffin in which child of

AN ACCOMMODATING YoUNG MANA lit
tie incident. says the Hartford Courant. oc-
Cured lately in one of the cars of the Hart
ford and New Haven Railroad, which gave a
gratifying proof of the Difference paid by
young men TO the wishes Of ,he ladies, and
their readiness to supply want as soon as
1t becomes known. The car in question was
nearly filled, as cars are apt to he in this day
of travel Its floor near the door was cover
ed with tobacco juice, as, alas, floors are apt
to be in this day when the use of the vile
weed so much prevails. At one of the way
stations a well dressed lady entered the car
looking with unconccaled disgust at the pools
of yellow and Shiny juice on the floor, then
raised her dress slightly and picked her way
across. The only vacant sitting in the car
was on a seat occupied in part by young
man, who at once made room for the lady by
his side. As soon as she was seated, with
look of relief, mingled with one of solicitude,
the lady asked her Seat-mate: " Do YOU chew
tobacco" No, ma'am," was the reply,
g but | can get you chaw, if you like. -
The look of disgust again crept over the lady's
face, while those sitting by smiled au udibly.
