A WONDERFUL MICROSCOPE.

Rev. Daniel Wise, D. D editor of
the New York Sunday School Advo.
cate. thus speaks of the celebrated
Craig Microscope:
Its simplicity, cheapness and great
magnifying power struck me with snr-
prise. Then / examining a fy's eye
by its aid, and was struck with won
der at the skill and power of the Crea-
tor which is displayed in in its struct-
ure. When [ saw n statement in an
advertisement that the Craig Micro
scope magnifed one hundred dame
tiers, aud could be bought for $3.50.
1 thought it was one of. the humbugs
of the hour, for 1 had paid $40 for
microscope not long before. But now
| find it is to he a really valuable in
strument which 1 should ike to see
introduced into the families of our
readers in place of the manifold use
less toys which please for an hour and
is then destroyed. This microscope
would both amuse and instract them
and l advise every boy and girl who
wishes to know the wonders which lie
in little things to save his money until
he has s2.75 which will pay for the
microscope and the postage when sent
by mail"
AS a holiday gilt this microscope is
unsurpassed, being ornamental in
structive, amusing and cheap, and
never looses its interest. Agents and
dealers supplied on reasonable terms.
A sample will be mailed, post paid,
to anv. address for S2,75, by F. H.

Buried Alive--A Remarkable Els.
cape.

A correspondent of the Piattsbure
(Mo) Register, some days ago told
this remarkable story, which happened
i'll Grundy county:
a Mr.. John Andrews. a popular
and well to 10 farther in the neigh
borhood, had dug a well some iorty
leet deep, when it was discovered that
the well was about to cave in. MIR.
Andrews gathered up an armiul OF
snort boards, and went down 4 pole
ladder, fastened to a side OF the well.
to lay them across the wall, so as TO
prev. Mt the dirt as it fell from filling
up that part of the well walled up
He had not more that reached the bot
tom, as it was thought, before the we'll
caved in, filling up to a few feet OF
The top The alarm was given, and
neighbors gathered, but all believing
him dead they returned to their homes
TO mae arrangements to come the
| next day and dig him out
Mrs Andrews and two grown daugh-
ters and several smaller children re
fused TO leave the spot, and sat Oil "a
log near the well, crying. until late in
the evening, when all at once they saw
Mr.. Andrews emerging from the we'll,
covered with Ca and coming toward
them. The children all ran, scream
ing, to the house, bolted the doors and
fastened the windows, believing it to
be their fathers ghost But Mrs. An
drews ran to meet him, screaming at
the top of her voice, oh, John! Oh,
john Is hat you? Is that you?'-
When she r ached him fell fainting
at his feet.
1t seems that when he got to the
bottom of the we'll he looked up ami
saw the tip giving away, and beltv-
cape, he slipped under the boards
which he had laid scross the well, when
the whole thing lell in upon him. AL
hope, ut first gave way, and he was
about to lie. himself drop into the VA
ter below and end at once his misera-
bic feelings. But, feeling above, he
found the clay easily crumhled, and
hope revived. The pole ladder, it
seems, was still standing, and taking
hold OF it with one hand, he with the
other scratched away Tor dear life, the
dirt falling into the water below as he
dragged his body slowly upwards. Ii
seems he did not suffer much in breath
ing, as fresh air come from the pole,
around which the di t was loosely pack,
ed. In the Incredible short time O;
seven ours lie scratched a hole some
forty feet long, through which he
made his escape. his is one OF the mar
rowest IIairbreadlh escapes from a hor
rible death ON record.

hydrophobia among dogs that we have

undeDstrict watch. We should not be

Gen. West defeated for Senator, and by
what majority the unlucky aspirant
was defeated. Our dispatches tell us
nothing whatever about the conse-
quences, politically, of Vests election,
nor nothing in reference to the proceed

important questions connected with
State policy. We hear of everything
that transpires in st. Louis, Cincinnati,

We don't understand it, and there
fore, give it up in the premises. We
see men who complain of hard times
and let their debts stand over year
after year, and yet they are buying
property and improving it.. We like to
see, and always encourage, improve
ments; but we don't understand the se-
cret Of improving and never paying
debts. Again, we see men selling
property and getting good prices, who
also complain of hard times, and also
let their little bills run month after
month. We see men make great dis
play and exact considerable public no
tice and attention-who are magnifi-
cent collectors, and withal very winn-
ing-who scorn the collector who comes
now and then to them. We see men
who never work, who, notwithstand-
Ing, live and loll in ease. We see men
who are reputed wealthy, who declare
they have no money; and we see men
who are really poor, spending money
every day for that which is worthless.
And then We see the peoples friend, he
who works hard, is expected to help
everybody and does it, almost begging
for the pay he has earned, and occa-
sionally treated ungraciously and al
most rudely, when he exacts his dues.
