NEVER PRINTS TT-A New York
correspondent says:
"By the way, it is funny to read
the Herald report of the Mcfarland
trial. Many years ago Bennett and
the leading lawyer in this case had a
bloody rupture, and Graham, among
other cutting remarks, said to Ben
nett: Don't ever dare print my
name in your paper; if you do, I'll
horsewhip you the morning of it's
issue, if you are above ground. -
And sure enough, from that distant
day to this, John Graham's name
don't appear; when occasion de-
mands reference to be made to him.
"cOuRcH then said, sc" and that's all
the notice Graham ever gets from the
Herald.
All of which is true TO the letter as
any one may see from the Herald re-
ports.

RICHMOND, Va, April


A large crowd assembled this
morning in the upper portion of the
Capitol building, where the Supreme
Court of Appeals is located, to hear
the decision in the Mayorality case.
At about IL o'clock the floor gave
way beneath the dense weight, pre-
cipitating the crowd to the floor be-
low, which was that the House of
Delegates. 1t is hard to ascertain at
present the extent of the injuries, so
great is the excitement, but some are
killed, and large number severely
injured. Many escaped terrible fall
by jumping into the windows when
the floor gave way. The wounded
are now being attended to.

saw, Kesciusko County, says that the
cherries in that vicinity are reported
as entirely killed by the recent cold
snap, and peaches so far are unin-
jured, while the early apples are de-
stroyed.

capped uninjured, e kept the early

A DEAD MAN SIGNS HIS OWN WILL.

An interesting will case, which has been
pending in the courts in Franklin County,
Missouri, for years past, rivals in its nature
any thing Of the sort, possibly ever heard of
in the history of the present age The cir
cumstanceS, as gathered from one of the at
torneys engaged for the defence (outside of
the Court-room,) are briefly as follows !:
Some years ago there lived in the town of
Washington, an old bachelor, who possessed
Il consid cradle amount of property, and had
no relatives save one, who, it is said, was
needy. The individual (bachelor) was taken
quite i'll, and was advised to make his will,
which he did, bequeathing all of his estate to
the children of Il friend. The news became
in which the testator had disposed of his
property, leaving out any consideration to
his kindred friend. While the man still
fingered on his bed Of sickness, it was made
up among some of the friends of the relative
that three of them should visit the sick man
and advise him to make a second will, with
provisions for the relief of the kinSman.
Consent being given, the parties, who it is
said, We're all on Il eight and who had no
personal interest ii. the matter save the good
feelings they entertained for the neglected
friend, appointed one of their number to
write. The table was drawn up close to the
bedside of the sick man who, as we'll as he
could, dictated the nature of his bequest.
Before the conclusion and signing of the will
the man died; one Of the party remarked to
the scribe ''that twas useless to 90 on, as
the man was dead as HI" However, aftel
its conclusion, the dead man was lifted I'D r
sitting posture and held, the pen was placed
between his fingers and made to trace his
name, after which the question was asked
"Do you acknowledge this to be your sigma
turc and last will??" &c, The dead man, b,
the aid Of those that held him up, nodded as
sent. The corpse was then quietly laid down
and the individuals signed their respective
names as witnesses to the instrument. The
trio who witnessed the will are now all dead
and the only seeming trouble now is tn,
the ri rcumstances, and under the inf1uenc,
of al intoxicated brain, the scribe somewha,

THACKERAY ON CHRISTMAS.

The play is lone-the curtain drops.
Slow falling at the prompter's bell;
A moment yet the actor stops,
And looks around to say farewell,
1t is an irkSome word and task;
And, when he's laughed and said his say,
He shows, as he removes the mask,
face that's any thing but gay.
One word, ere vet the evening ends
Let's close it with parting rhyme;
And pledge a hand to all young friends,
As fits merry Christmas time;
On ifes wide scene you, too, have parts,
That fate ere long shall BID you play;
Goodnight with honest, gentle hearts
kindly greeting go Away.
Good-night!-I'd say the griefs the joys,
Just limited in this mimic page,
The triumphs and defeats of boys,
Are but repeated in our age;
I'd say your woes were not less keen,
Your hopes more vain, than those OF men
Your pangs or pleasures OF fifteen
At forty -fve PLAYED DER again.
I'd say we suffer and we strive
Not less nor more men than boys
With grizzled boards at forty-ive,
As erst at twelve in corduroys;
And if in time of sacred youth,
We learned at home to love and pray,
Pray heaven that early love and truth
May never wholly pass away.
And ip the world, as in the school,
I'd say how fate may change and SHIFT
The prize be sometimes with the fool
The race not always to the swift;
The strong may yield, the good may fall,
The great man be vulgar clown,
The knave be lifted over all.
The kind east pitilessly down.
Who knows the inscrutible design?
Blessed be He who took and gave!
Why should your mother, Charles, not mine,
Re Wppnin0 Mt her Uarling'S grave
We bow to heaven that willed it so,
That darkly rules the fate Of all,
That sends the respite or the blow,
That's free TO give or to recall.
This crowns his feast with wine and wit
Who brought him to that mirth and state!
His betters, see, below him sit,
Or hunger hopeless at the gate.
Who babe the mud from Dives wheel
70 spurn the rags of Lazarus?
Come, brother, in that dust We'll kneel.
Confessng heaven that ruled it thus.
- each shall mourn, in life's advance,
Dear hopes, dear friends, untimely killed
Shall greve for many forfeit chance,
And longing passion unfultilled.
Amen Whatever fate be sent,
Pray God the heart may kindly grow,
Although the head with cares be bent,
And whtened with the winter snow.
Come wealth or want come good or i'll.
Let young or Old accept their part.
And bow before the awful will.
And bear it with an honest heart.
Who misses, or who wins the prize
Go, lose or conquer rs you can:
But if you fail or if you rise,
Be each, pray God, gentleman.
4 gentleman. or old or young,
(Bear kindly with my humble lays)
The sacred chorus first was sung
Upon the first Of Christmas days:
Tho Sbnpbpr,Is bpar, if Oyarhna1-
The joyful angels raised it then;
Glory to heaven on high, it said,
And peace on earth TO gentle men,
My song, save this, is little worth;
lay the weary pen aside,
And wish you health, and love, and mirth,
As fits the solemn Christmas tide.
As fits the holy Christmas birth,
BE this, good friends, our carol still
BE peace on earth, be peace on earth,
70 men of gentle will.
