A Coop SroRY.-And it is as true as
it is goods told of an old farmer
named Stinson, who lives about twelve
miles from Danvile, Illinois. I he old
man never read newspaper, or any
thing else but his Bible, and consequent
ly had heard nothing Of the eclipse
When the sun began to he obscured, and
the darkness to gather, he was frightend
half out of his wits, and ran to the
house of a neighbor, begging him to
pray for his wife and children for him.
He was never known to do any thing
Of the sort himself Il don't care for
myself" said he, 'but pray for the old
woman and the children

Bonds The financial editor of the
Philadelphia Ledger has been asked to
explain why it is that the two issues of
5 EOS of 1865 bring different prices in
the market? He replies rs follows:
One reason is, that what is called the
old issue Of 1865 have their semi anntl-
al interest periods in May and Novem
Der, while the new 5 20s have their in
terest periods January and July. At the
present time the old issue carry interest
from LIST of May, equal to ST gold more
than the new, which carry interest only
from July l. Another reason is, that
the new have not.

Mr.. EDIToR.-In your last number is
an article written by Caleb w King, in
which he says his name has been used
very conspicuously, etc. 1t is said by
n writer that brevity is the soul Of wit
Not claiming to be witty or wise, I will
be brief. In the first place he says
charge fraud on himself or the Commits
sioners, although he thinks it unworthy
of notice. And then he says he will
give the facts Of the case, and in doing
so he forgets to say he saw the article
before to the editor and made no OBJ
lection to it. " RUSSELL

about half through his sermon, when he
suddenly stopped and told the congre-

things for horses when they do great
deeds"
Not often, Guy ;but I can tell you of
one person who showed great attention
to favorite horse, but do not remem-
Der that it was for any thing the crea-
ture had done
Caligu'a, Roman Emperor who lived
about 81 A. d very cruel man, had
horse which he greatly pctted and,
while he thought nothing Of sentencing
to a horrid death scores Of aged and in
firm men and woman, he paid this horse
all the attention one would bestow upon
a beloved friend. For this pet, named
Incitatus, he claimed greater respect
and reverence than is accorded to the
wisest mortals. He built hin, stable
of marble, and manager Of ivory, and
some where have read that he was fed
with golden oats and drank from g gold
en- cup. He also appointed for Incita
tus a house, furniture, and kitchen, in
order 10 respectful entertainment of
its visitors. He frequently invited his
four-footed friends to the imperial table,
and entertained serious thought of con-
ferring upon animals the honors of the
consulship.
What n silly fellow, if he was an
Emperor = said Guy with republican
curl Of the lip. Il think Don was far
more worthy Of resp' ct than1ncitatus or
it's horrid master =
