KILLED BY CHICKEN-Two DEATHS
FROM A SINGULAR CAUSE.-THE Will
Jamestown, Tennessee, Journal of late
date has an account of the death'of Mrs.
Sarah johnson, of that county, which
| was caused in a very singular manner
Only few days before her death, Mrs.
johnson, who was at that time in per-
tect health, went out into the yarC for
the purpose of separating a couple of
chicken cocks which were engaged in a
| furious fight. She caught one of the
cocks. and in so doing was slightly
4 wounden by its long, sharp spur or gaff.
which terminated in death. She was the
| wife of Mr.. Caiborn johnson, who has,
| for a long time, been sufferer from con-
sum mption. 1.-THE shock produced upon
the already enfeebled frame, by the sud-
den death of his wife, was more than Mr..
johnson could .bear.s4 He ,commenced
sinking at once, and two days after (the
9th tnst.) he, too, died.
! 1t is not often that jHries are called up
| on to decide what is religion, but a
| Boston jury of last week found itself re-
| quired to do so. A. woman brought suit
| against the horse-railroad company for
damage received in coming home on Sum
day from Spiritualistic camp-meeting
at Maiden. The law makes all travelling
on Sunday for amusement illegal, and
the company set up that the camp-meet-
4
| amusement. The judge &ehafged that
every one has right to worship accord
ing to conscience, and that the woman
could recover if her Sunday travel was
for the purpose of religious devotion.
This was sensiblezruling, even ifssone
lpersons are disguised with the fYe thou
lsand dollar verdict. The State Of Masea-
federation and freedom of sconse seience, so
Hong as private deceney and public NOR
ality are not outraged.

A WISE WoMAN.-When was girl
my mother taught me every variety of
domestic work leading me ON from sim
pie to difficult processes in this manner:
My daughter, !" she would say, snow
Il ifyou make this shirt very nicely, you
shall make next shirt for your father,
and he shall know that every, stitch was
set by your fingers"
How eager was to learn the myste-
Ties of shirt-making, and how patiently
my mother taught me to set the, stitches
in the bosom, to baste in. the gussets, to
stroke the gathers! How many button

before she could quite trust me to make
the bosoms and Wristbands. But that
shirt was my apprenticeship to the
needle, and since then dressmaking,
millenery, tailoring even, has had no
terrors in my imagination (; for if 1
could make a shirt well, / could learn to
make everything. In the same way she
stimulated my Industry and ambition in
culinary matters. IL .if E,sh S,Is Hsy tnsl3

wipe the dishes very nicely" she would
say, E'I will let you make some biscuit" !"
Then j was permitted to offse aistep
higher, to the dignity OF breadmaEing,
the, connection, of pies and cakes.,.g L
really thought in those. DAYS that i loved
to do house@ork, to cook, and sweep, and
!, iron, but since then 4 have found out
that itwas my mothers admirable man
agenlent that made pastime of 3drudgery.
