An Old Ak.

- An Old Ak.
A few days since, Nathan Salisbury, Esq.
living in East Scott, Cortlandt County, New
York, found very peculiar ak. The cir
cumstances are as follows:
''At an early day, when Mr. Salisbury,
in company with others, was chopping and
clearing the forest of his newly acquired
farm, they came upon very large hemlock
standing near the stream. After cut
ting the tree down, Mr.. Salisbury discovered
that what appeared to be the heart Of the
tree was really separate tree from the one
just fallen. On examination, this tree with
in tree was found to have been girded at
some previous time, leaving small portion
uncut, so that the sap had continued to ira
verse the trunk until its growth had COM
pletely overgrown the girdling, and another
tree formed, growing to enormous dimen-
sions.
GA few days since, near the trunk of that
tree, about twelve inches below the surface,
was found this peculiar ak. lis about ten
inches in length by three and one-fourth
inches on the cut or edge. tits made of
iron. Now, what is remarkable about this
ak and tree is this: that the girdling or
packing of the inner tree corresponds pre-.
cisely with the ak found, and counting the
copceptric rings of the growth of the outer
tree, is found the remarkable fact that the
inner tree was girdled about one hundred
years before the landing of the Pilgrims
Who was in that locality using an ak three
hundred and fifty-seven years ago?'

barrels of ground bone with one carboy of

The expense of this amount will be only
about eighteen dollars ton, and we do not
doubt the fertilizer thus made would be as
valuable as any purchased in the market for
forty dollars per ton. The expense may be

Touching Scene

a shocking tragedy, the result Of
which has plunged Il happy household
into the very depths OF. unuttcrablc
woe, occurred in this city OH Sunday
morning last. ltappcars that as Mel
lie and Frank SleuuIan (step-daughter
Of ID. }. Davis, residing on Camanche
avenue) aged respectively nine and
fifteen years, were up stairs dressing to
attend the Methodist Episcopal Sab
bath School, Frank, the elder sister,
took Il target pistol from y box OIL the
window sill, turned TO look out Of the
window, and by some means discharged
tho piece, the bullet taking effect IN
Ncliic's head, nbuurtWo and one half
inches over the left temple, passing
obliquely toward the right eye, and
lodging OH the palate bone. The acci-
dent occurred at about Il quarter
past ten o'clock. Physicians were
Immediately sent for, and Doctors
Cumins, CogSwcll and PaXson arrived
with all possible dispatch, but of
course the skill Of surgery could avail
little in such 4 desperate extremity.
Blood came from the child's nose; She
also swallowed some blood and vomi-
ted it up again, while two or three
tcaspoonlulS Of brains have cNudcl
from the orilicc. How thc child
escaped instant death is a wonder.
She has, however, been conscious from
the first, and has been able to answer
all questions; although physicians
express il, in Il semi-comatoSc state.
Seeing her sister in tears she told her
lovingly not TO feel ba1-that if she
should die and 20 to heaven she would
ask God to let her come there, too.
On Monday, as DR.. CoSswcll was
about leaving her bedside, he asked
her: "ls there anything can do for
you:" "Ycs," replied Nellie, with child
i>h confidence, "you can hear me say

that it is vile hypocrisy for such per-
