A Thrilling Incident.

During the great fire in Chatham street, New
\ lork, in ISL, the lofty Spire of the Old Brick
Church caught from spark. A blazing spot
was seen outside, and apparently not much
larger than man head. Instantly thrill of
tear evidently ran through the bosoms of the
thousands crowding the Park and the wide
area OF Chatham street. The kindling spot
could not be reached from the inside Of the
tall stccpe, nor by ladders outside: neither
could any tireenginc however powerful. force
the water to that lofty height. With the deep,
est anxiety, fear and trembling, all faces were
turned in that direction. At this moment Of
alarm and dread a sailor appeared on the roof Of
the church, and very soon was seen climbing UP
the SteepIe, hand over hand, by the lightning
rod-yeS, 10y the rusty, slender IRON OF course
the excitement now became intense and the
perllouS undertaking Of the daring man was
watched every moment as he slowly, step by
step, grasp after grasp. literally crawlcd upward
by means OF his slim conductor. Many fears
We're expressed among tie immense crowds
watching every inch of his ascent, for there
was no resting place for the hands and feet,
and he must hold on, or fall and perish: and
should he succeed in reaching the burning
spot, how could he possibly cxtingush it, as
water, neither by hose nor buckets, could be
sent to his assistance. " But where there is a
Will there Is way, says the old maxim, and
1t was at this fearful crisis he reached the
kindlng spot, aud firmly grasping thclightning
rod in one hand, with the other he removed
the taurpaulin hat from his head, and with it
literally, blow after blow, thick, strong, and
unceasing, eXtinguiShed or beat out the fire
Shouts Of JOY and thanks greeted the noble
fellow as he slowly and safely descended tc
the earth again. The 'Old Brick was thus
preserved from the great conhagration of that
sunday morning. Our hero quickly disappear
ed in the crowd, and it was said Immediately
sailed abroad with the favorable wind ther
blowing. \ reward was offered for the person
who performed this daring, generous act; bu
for the real hero, and obtained the promised
amount.

ANCIENT BLONDES. The red hair of the
enetlan adleS, made SO famous by the poets
aud painters, was commonly as artificial as
most of the light hair Of to-day is But if our
modern bellies were compelled to take half the
pains to secure the fashionable hue for their
locks that the Venetian ladies did, we imagine
the blonde style Of beauty would not long re-
tain its favor. According to the account of
writer OF the sixteenth century, (CeSare Nicilio.J
We learn that " the houses Of Venice are COM
monty crowned with little constructions in
wood, resembling u turret without roof. 1t
Is IN these chat the \ enetian women may be
seen as often, aud indeed oltencr than in their
chambers; it is there that, with their heads
exposed to the full ardor Of the sun during
whole days, they strain every nerve to augment
their charms, as il they needed it. During the
hours when the sun darts his most vertical and
scorchlng rays, they repair to these boxes, and
condemn themselves to broil unattended
Seated there they keep on wetting their hair
with sponge dipped in elixir Of youth, pre-
pared with their own hands or purchased
! They molsten their hair afre,h as fast as it Is
dried by the sun, and it is by the uncea>ing
renewals OF this opratIon that they become
what YOU see thcm-hlonleS When engaged
in it they throw over their ordinary dress a
/ IcigH0ir Of the finest white silk, which they
call a SghiaroacHd. They wear on their heads
a straw hat without crowH, so that hair drawn
/ through the opening may be spread upon the
border. This hat, doing double duty as dry
/ ing line for the hair and Il parasol to prot tact
/ the neck, Is calleI a S0iIHd. In winter, when
I the sun failed, they wetted and dried their hail
! before the fire" Imagine this slow torture
! laIes. and thank Fortune you can now obey
the caprices OF Fashion without 80 severe de-
mand upon your powers of endurance.
