a bachelor, aud lives OH the wagon road.
y lew days ago an cmigrant wagon from
Oregon came along and canfped near our
friends place. Tire head of the family
soon made himself acquainted with the
proprietor Of the premises, and asked
him why he couldn't have Il woman to
keep house for him. The answer was
that he intended to marry just as soon
as he could find a woman willing to enter
the bonds of matrinony The Oregonian
remarked that he could find him part
ncr, if he would take her. The bachelor
said that was right into his hand, and
the emigrant invited him to his camp.
The emi grant called out bouncing
damsel of about twenty years, and in-
formed her that the gentleman accom-.
panylng him was "on the marry" and
willing to take her for better or for worse.
The damsel, delighted at the prospect.

The New England papers are filled

recently swept over that section. At
Providence, X. L., the force of the storm
was so great that the sea swept into the
main street, and the people in many
localities were only rescued through the
prompt action of boatmen, who padded
through the business streets. The Boston
papers give the following details of the
late hurricane

my leave he showed me short way out
of the house, through narrow passage,
which was crossed by beam overhead.
We were still talking as Withdrew, he
accompanying me behind, and turning
toward him, he said hastily: ".Stoop !,
Stop" | did not understand him till |
felt my head hit against the beam. He
was man who nrver missed an occasion
of giving instruction, aud upon this he
said to me, You are young and have the
world before you; Stoop Il lille as you 60
through it, and you will avoid many
hard thumps ~ This advice thus beat
into my head, has frequently been of use
to me; and often think of it when /

VERY SINGULAR Prom Bells Station.
Tenn, come the particulars of most
singular phenomenon. William Rowell
was struck suddenly deaf and dumb, a
few days ago, when en- route to Memphis
from his place of residence Gut of
mere sport, when newsboy came round
and offered him paper, he feigned to
be both deaf and dumb, and in this way
annoyed the vendcr. The ncwsboy passed
on, but the unfortunate Joker never
spoke again. When he began to realize
the extent of his misfortune, he got of
the train, bound for Memphis, at Mason's
depot, and took the first return train. On
the cars, he indulged in loud lameuta-
tions and cries, as if sorely distressed,
On his arrival home, as soon as ho step
ped out on the platform, he seiSed a
pencil and bit OF paper from q citizen,
and wrote, "struck dumb on account of
my folly" and continued Weeping in
most piteous tones. .-NdSteiNs BdaRey.
