An Insurance Incident.

A New York letter in Western paper
has this item: Il
1.-TWO years ago | met Californian,
who was blown up on the steamer Yose-
mite, on the Sacramento river, some time
about the year 1865 You remember the
accident, one of the worst of its kind,
forty or fifty persons being killed and
half as many severely injured. My ac-
quaintance 81. was asleep in his room
when the explosion occurred, and was
thrown some two hundred feet into the
middle of the river, the cabin coming to
pieces and leaving him saoat in the
water. 1t is hardly necessary to say
that he awoke very speedily, and was
somewhat puzzled at the novelty of the
situation. As he told the story to little
party of us one night somebody ven.
tured to ask: .s..t.r
"H, what was the first thought that
entered your head when you walked up in
the river r.
"Well," he replied, Il had insured my
life the day before in San Francisco for
twenty thousand dollars was thinking
of it when l went to sleep, and the next
/ knew was when heard the explosion
and found myself in the water, | just
thought, I've got that confounded insu-
rance company this time, sure.

A Case Of HydrOphobIa Cured.
From the Alexandria tva.) Advertiser. II.

From the Alexandria (Va.) Advertiser. III
There is general skepticism as to the
effect of the minerals popularly known as
mad stones" upon hydrophobia, but
now and then cases are brought to public
notice where stones claimed to have this
virtue have been used with great benefit
by persons who have, been bitten by rabid
animals. A remarkable instance was
related to us recently by Mr. Pozier d.
Cats, of Cats Hotel, West End.
A few weeks since rabid dog bit a
calf on the farm of Col. Herbert, few
miles from this city A little colored
boy who was feeding the calf, with no
suspicion of its malady, by chance in
troduced bis finger into the mouth
of the ANIMAL and was soon seized
with severe pains, and showed
every symptom of the hydropho-
ba. While in this situation be was seen
by Mr.. Cats, who had heard of many
wonderful cures of the disease performed
by the application of stone which he
knew to be in the possession of gente-
man living near Paris, Faquier county.
At the suggestion of Col. Fl. he procured
q buggy and drove post haste with the
afflicted boy to the residence of Mr.. Sier-
Ii, &, the possessor of the stone. The
stone was applied to the wound at once;
it stuck fass, and SO remained for several
hours. During the time it could only be
removed from the wound by the exertion
of considerable strength, and when
touched gave the boy great pain. When
lifted from the wound it was drawn back !
as is iron by magnet. After some /
time, however, it loosened and dropped,
as of its own weight, and the boy declared
himself entirely relieved. When the |
stone was FIRST applied it was of light,
clear green color, but became turbid and
dark while it remained on the boys
hand. By dropping it in boiling water,
however, its clear color was renewed,
leaving green scum upon the surface of
the water. The boy was brought back
we'll.

1860 to 1867, period more favorable to

Of this year 40, 900 miles will be com

their boots are pointed, high and exactly

is something startling. The young

their backs from the waist upward, at an
angle approaching forty five degrees,
causing the hump or bunch before mem

Webster Matched by a Woman.
rom the Omaha Herald


In the somewhat famous case Of Mr..
Bodgen's will, which was tried in the Su-
preme Court some years ago, Mr.. Web
ster appeared as counsel for the appel
liant. Mrs. Greenough, wife Of Rev. Wm
Greenougb, late of Weston, tall, straight,
queenly looking woman, with a keen,
black eye--a woman of great self-pos.
session and decision Of character--was
called to the stand as witness on the
opposite side. Mr.. Webster, at glance.
had the sagscity to foresee that her testi
mony, if it contained anything of i'm
portauce, would have great weight with
the court and jury He therefore resolved,
If possible, to break her up, and when
she answered to the first question put to
her II believe" Mr. Webster roared out: /:
We don't want to hear what you be-
lieve, we want to hear what you know.
Mrs. Greenough replied: That's just
what was about to say, sir, and went
on with her testimony. And notwith-
standing his repeated efforts to discon-
cert her, she pursued the even tenor OF
her way, till Webster, quite fearful of the
result, arose apparently in g reat agita-
ton, and drawing out his snuff-box,
thrust his fingers to the very bottom, and
carrying the deep pinch to both nostrils,
drew it up with a gusto, and then ex
iracting from his pocket very large
handkerchief which flowed to his feet as
he brought it to the front, he blew his
nose with report that rang distinct and
loud through the hall
Webster-Mrs. Greenough, was Mrs.
Bodgen neat woman?
Mrs. G.-I cannot give you very full
information as to that, sir. She had one
very dirty trick. ax "a GAfW
Webster What was that, MADAME
Mrs. G-She took snuff.
The roar in the courthouse was such
that the defender of the Constitution sub
sided, and neither rose nor spoke again
until Mrs. Greenough had vacated her
chair for another witness, having ample
time to reflect upon the inglorious his
tory Of the man who had stone thrown
on his head.
