Remarkable Phenomena.

The following, published IN the AL
bany Argus, is vouched for by the par
ties who were present at the time:
''On the 2Sth of July about 81 o'clock
in the evening, the family Of John
Sanderson of Schodack Landing were
thrown into terrible state of excite
ment by a thunderbolt OF shock of cleo
tricity which passed down the stove
pipe, bursting out at each side, severing
the iron, exploding within two feet of
Mr.. Sanderson, thence passing between
himself and wife, who was sitting nurs-
ing her youngest child, throwing her
forward some distance, she still embrace
ing the infant.
The electricity struck on each side
OF closed door, passed over the fami-
ly, consisting of eight children, III that
room, splitting three by four inch
ioist, ploughing up the ground four
feet at the extremity, leaving a hole in
the ground. The light was extinguish-
ed, total darkness succeeding the bril-
strong sulphurous smell and smoke
behind. The screams of the family
were appalling. Upon light being
procured, Mr. Sanderson naturally ex-
pected to see some of his family III the
arms of death. The three eldest
daughters, who in the room above,
Immediately rushed down, when it was
perceived that one of them shook as
though under the effects of of strong
galvanic shock, trembling from head to
foot. Upon Mrs. Sander8on taking
hold of her, the electricity seemed to
pass to the mother, leaving her paraly-
zed down the left side, from the effects
of which she has not yet entirely re-
covered. "

A FAITHFUL ASSISTANT,
How n Junior Editor Followed Out
His Instructions to the Lctter--A Stir
ring Obituary,

HOW n Junior Editor Followed Out
His Instructions to the Lctter-A Stir
ring Obituary,
AS good a newspaper story as has
lately been told is one regarding the
Colorado Herald. The editor of the
Herald had occasion to leave town for
a few days, and intrusted his valuable
organ to the care of an ambitious
youth, who was a novice in journalism
HIS instructions on leaving were mod
eled after those of the elder Bennett in
similar emergencies. Always keep
before your mind the fact that the OBJ
lect of this paper is to extend it's circu-
latlon, he said, "and whenever you
see chance to insert puff of the
Herald, IN any notice you may make,
pile it on as thick as you can. Keep
the people stirred up all the time, you
understand, SO the people will believe
the Herald is the greatest sheet in the
United States" He then went away,
and the following night his wife died
very suddenly. This is how the assist
ant editor mentioned the circumstance:
GONE, BUT NOT FORGOTTEN.
We are compelled this morning to
perform duty which is peculiarly
painful to the able assistant editor who
has been engaged on this paper at an
enormous expense, in accordance with
our determination to make the Herald
first class journal. Last night death
unexpectedly snatched away from our
domestic hearth Cthe best are adver-
tlsed under the head of stoves and fur
naces, upon our first page, Mrs. Aga,
tina L. Burns, wife of Rufus i. Burus,
the gentlemanly editor of the Herald.

III advance.) A kind mother and an
exemplary wife. (Office over Coleman's
grocery, up two flights of stairs. Knock

we shall miss thee" Dob printing So
liclted.) Funeral at A., from the
house just across the street from the
Herald office Gone to be an angel
now. advertisements inserted for ten
cents a sluare.)
This story has this unhappy ending.
Well, the editor arrived home that
day at noon. Slowly and sadly he was
observed to arm himself with double
barreled fowllng piece, into which he
inserted about two pounds and a half
Of bullets. He marched over to the
office, followed by an immense crowd.
Tho assistant editor was busy in print
ing big placard to be tackled on the
hearse. 1t bore the legend, BUY your
collins of Simms, over the Herald
office" The assistant editor cast his
eye around and perceived his chief.
Care at upon that wan cheek, and
thunder clothed his brow. He leveled
bis gun. The assistant did not wait.
With one Wild and awful yell he jumped
from the second story window, and
struck out for the golden shores of the
Pacific, 1t is believed he eventually
swan over to China

Postal Arrangement with Germany.

n arrangement has just been con-
Guided between the United States and
Germany, to take effect on the LIST of
October next, which reduces the rate of
international postage for prepaid let
tiers; if exchanged between the coun-
tries by closed mail via England, from
ten to seven cents for each rate of half
an ounce or under; unpaid letters SO
exchanged to be charged with double
the prepaid rates, and unsutficlently
paid letters with postage for unpaid
letters after the deduction of the
amount prepaid.
This arrangement establishes a uni
form postage of seven cents, or three
silver groschen, per single rate on pre-
paid lette. exchanged between the
United States and Germany on and af-
ter the t'of October proximo, wheth er
transmitted via England or by direct
line via Hamburg or Bremen. 1t is
particularly to be observed that this re-
duction applies to letters only, so that
all correspondence other than letters
posted in the United States for Ger
many, will continue subject to the same
rates of postage and to the same cond1-
tions of compulsory pre-payments as
are now applicable therefor. Post
masters will levy and collect postage
on and after the 1st Of October next.

4 RenrcheDsible Habit,

There is no breach of that etiquette
which should be observed in public
places SO rcprehensible as that of a
gentleman leaving ladies sitting alone.
1t is not only matter of etiquette,
but of the attention and protec ion due
a lady under the charge of gentleman
How often do we observe at the opera
and the theater from fifty to hundred
vacant chairs between the acts, repre-
senting this reprehensible practice {?
Gentlemen should not be guilty of such
disrespeetfui act toward ladies, and
ladies should not tolerate it There
are many considerations apart from the
etiquette of good breeding in public
places to discourage such practice.
A lady is liable to be insulted in the
absence of her escort ; the difficulty of
his returning through crowded house
to his seat, and even the probability Of
an accident of panic occurring, which
would require his immediate care of the
lady or ladies under his charge. This
breach of good taste and breedingis not
committed, in majority of instances,
once or twice, but frequently repeated
between every act. The most effectual
way for lady to prevent it, is to refuse
to accompany gentleman to public
place of amusement who is guilty Of
this ngentlemanly breach of decorum
and neglect of a lady under his charge

Dreams and Realities.
BY PHGBE CARY.

o Rosamond, thou fair and good,
And perfect flower of womanhOod,
Thou royal rose OF June,
Why didst thou droop before thy time?
Why wither in thy first sweet prime?
Why didst thou die so soon?
For looking backward through my tears
On thee, and on my wasted years,
l cannot choose but say,
II thou hadst lived to be my guide,
Or thou hadst lived and had died,
'TWere better far to-day.
o child of light, o golden head
Bright sunbeam for one moment shed
Upon lifes lonely way
Why didst thou vanish from our sight?
Could they not spare my little light
From heavens unclouded day?
o friend so true, o friend so good
Thou one dream of my nlaidenhood,
That gave youth all its charms
What had done, or what hadst thou,
That through this lonesome world till now
We walk with empty arms.
And yet, had this poor soul been fed
With all it loved and coveted
Had life been always fair
Would these dear dreams that neer depart,
That thrill with bliss by Utmost heart,
Forever tremble there?
If still they kept their earthly place,
The friends L held in my embrace,
And gave to death, alas
Could have learned that clear, calm faith
That looks beyond the bounds of death,
And almost longs to pass?
Sometimes, think, the things we see
Are shadows of the things to be;
That what We plan to build
That every hope that has been crossed,
And every dream we thought was lost,
In heaven shall be fulfilled.
That even the children of the brain
Have not been born and died in vain,
Though here unclothed and dumb;
But on some brighter, better shore
They live, embodied eyermore,
And wait tor us to come.
And when on that last day we rise,
Caught up between the earth and skies.
Then shall we hear our Lord
Say, Thou hast done with doubt and death !:
HencefoTth, according 70 thy faith,
Shall be thy faiths reward.

Action of Heart FCisons.

DE- Rudolph Boehm, OF Wurzburg.
has just published an account or ser
les OF experiments on the action of
heart polsOns. The poisons investiga-
ted were ataOpin, muscorin, nlcotin,
aconitin, delphinin, veratrin, and ply.
sostgmin The experiments were made
on frogs. DR.. Boehm paid especial at
tentIon to the action of the various poi
sons when administered to the same
frog successfully, and the physiologi-
cal conclusions arrived at are these /:
l. The frogs heart possesses automa-
tic nerve centres. 2. Both these cen
tres can, in the normal condition, re-
celve stimulus from the brain through
centrifugal nerve fbers, which run in
the cervical portion OF the vagus. 3.
The endings of these yagus fibers are
identical with the before mentioned au-
tomato centres. We must rather sup
pose the existence of connecting pieces
by means of which the endings of the
vagus are placed IN communication
with the ganglion cell composing the
automatic centres, 4. The automatic
centres OF the frogs heart are not local
lied In any definite manner. Although
her headquarters must be considered to
lie in the sinus vrnosus Gnhibitory) and
the basis Of the ventricle (eXcitomotor)
there are yet facts which go to prove
that both sorts of ganglions occur close
to one another all over the heart The
movements of the several segments are
to certain extent independent of one
another. 5. The ventricle, as being a
striated muscle, has certain differences
from the rest of the heart, and as such
obeys the same laws as striated muscu-
lar tissue exhaustion, paralysis, te-
tanus).

A frightful accident occurred Satur-
day night on the Eastern Railroad, at
Revere, seven miles from Boston. An
accommodation train started behind

the Portland lightning express over
took it and telescoped it, killing twenty
one outright-three of them women
and wounding some forty or fifty others.
A car took fire and two or three were
consumed Most of the wounded were
scalded, and their limbs fractured, A
large number of physicians and sur
geons are in attendance. The killed
and wounded belonged mostly to Lynn
and Salem.
