A LITTLE fellow, not ten years
old, performed a noble deed not
long ago, which deserves public
record. One morning as the
Pacific Express train, Pennsyl:
vania Railroad, was rounding
a curve on the mountaln-side
near Altoona at rapid rate, a
deep precipice being on one
hand and high rocks on the
other, a small lad was seen
ahead waving his hat, tossing
his little arms aloft. The train
was stopped within a few feet
Of a mass of rock and dirt upon
the track sufficient to have
thrown engine and passenger.
cars over the precipice. The
lad, whose name is Willie Cab.

ened to signal the approaching

A SINGULAR story is told Of a
man in Fall River, Massachu
setts, who in December last,
while eating piece of bread
at breakfast, felt something
sharp, which subsequently
proved to be a needle, in his
throat. 1t lodged crosswise,
but was too iar down to be
seen. After three or four days
it worked into the left side and
came nearly through the neck,
causing a painful abscess. A
little above the abscess the
needle was so near the surface
that it caused the flesh to pro.
trude like a pimple; but the
physicians declined to cutzto
ind it, especially as they Mad
some dou BIT as to the cause
The abscess was subsequently
lanced. The needle in the mean
time worked backinto the side
of the throat, and then up upr
der the tongue, causing great
swelling and pain. A week or
two ago it was discovered pro-
truding under the tongue, and
was extracted. The needle
measured one and a quarter
inches, and aG times during the
four months it has caused the
man great suffering. .--

A man named Campbell was charged at
Preston with stealing O 9l0O note, the property
of a marine store dealer named Cummings, q
woman named Hanlon being charged as a party
concerned. The note was given to the Rev.
Joseph johnson, one of the priests at st. Wal
The priest was pressed to tell who gave him
the note, but he refused, stating that the COM
munication respecting the note took place
under circumstances which made the conf
dence sacred, and that he could not divllge
the pane of the person. The mayor, poor man !
actually said that this was inconsistent with
the oath to tell "the truth, the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth" and added that,
though he had not the power to force the
magistrates might be able to do 80 whom the
prisoners were tried. The priest said that he
would go to prison, but would not tell the
name. The sapient mayor of Preston Eve hope
he will understand that the word sapient 1"
means wise, and is not libel, though it is
sometimes an inaccuracy,) will find that the
great Quarter Sessions dignitaries will make
no more impression on Father johnson than
he did. Neither they nor any other power on
earth (not even the Pope himselD can obtain
from priest any information which he ac-
formerly died (witness the glorious martyr, st.
John Nepomuceue,) rather than betray the
secrets which they learn under the sacred seal
of confession, and we are convinced that the
same involability still guards the tribunal of
Penance, even though such mighty people as
Preston mayors or Quarter Sessions magistrates
may think otherwise.
