"NoT SUCH \ Fool As He LOoKS.'-
We yesterday noticed a quaint looking
Indian of the Piute persuasion, arts

- Come here, YOU d-m Yankee"
Thinking he might he addressing
himself to We local-more unlikely
things have happened-we turned to
see the cause of his remark, when we
observed a scrubby, gaunt looking
canine making his way to the veneer
able red skin. We inquired of him
the dogs name, which we learned WAS
- Iankee.' Being rather a queer coy
nOnen for an Indian dog, we asked
why he called il by hat name.
:" Well" he responded, white man
all time talk big; get heap mad; all
time n round; want to fight; heap

being convinced by the Indians
words that he was not such a fool as
he looked to be. A lesson may I've

LOST IN THE CRATER OF VEsUyIUs

LOST IN THE CRATER OF VEsUvIUs.-
The Revista, of Naples, contains the fol-
lowing account of the lost two gentlemen
in the Crater of Vesuvius, who with
great temerity. insisted upon being low
cred to dark cavern Immediately below
the orifce of the crater:
"A party formed to ascend Mount
Vesuvius, Friday afternoon, consisted of
two Americans, three Englishmen, and
one Frenchman. The tourists began the
ascent, over hillocks and boulders of
lava, until the vicinity of the crater was
reached. when Messrs. James Wilcox and
Francois Lemieur, an American and a
Frenchman, insisted on being lowered
down to cavern which is formed below
the mouth of the. Volcano The guides,
who provide themselves with ropes for
that purpose, complied with the request
of the foreigners, and lowered them down
the mountain. Being perfectly quiet,
no danger was anticipated, but when one
of the party above the crater called out
to each of the adventures, no answer
was returned The guides growing anx-
ious, cried: Gentlemen, it would be
better for you to hold OH to the ends OF
the ropes. Still the ropes remained
slack, and no answer came from the mur-
ky cavern below Twenty minutes pas
ed and the adventurers were yet silent
1t was then proposed that one of the
guides should be lowered and hold on tc
the ropes until he had investigated the
appearance of the cavern base. He hao
hardly entered when he cried out loud

At Petersburgh was laid full low;

Through the quaking South was heard;
On his banner victory sat,
Like the ark of Ararat.

And Rebellion, child of hell,
Crushed and broken bowed its head,
Still Grant was silent as the dead,
But the nations voice was loud,
Crowning him the victor proud.

THE LESSON.

A young tree was rejoicing in the first
buds of spring, and when the tiniest of
leaves burst forth it gave it the name of
Merry Foot Little Merry Foot was soon
Joined by Rosy Fingers, Happy Heart,
Sweet Voice, Silver Foot, Bright Eye,
Quick Ear, Gentle One, &C. The tree
welcomed them all and stretched its
branches to sustain their weight 1t
said, 81 am happy with my delicate
leaves, but 1 must give them something
to do or they will not be happy with
me-" So Merry Foot was appointed to
invite the birds there for their daily re-
hearsals and concerts; Silver Foot to
wait upon and entertain the squirrels
which often came to bring the news;
Bright Eye must study the sun, moon
and stars, and Quick Ear learn all she
could from the wind, rain, thunder, and
by the voice of man or beast, and all
these being impaired to Silver Voice, she
should communicate to the others. So
pleasantly passed the spring and sum-
mer came, and the delight of the tree
grew greater in the fulness of its perfec-
tion, beauty and harmony, and it said,
81 will ever keep my beautiful leaves;
will hold them fast; no wind shall
shake them off no rain shall make them
loose their hold. Thus bright and hap
Ply will we ever be. The days passed
on and the autumn winds began to blow,
but the tree, strong and healthy, needed
it not. The leaves changed their color,
but it was pleased with the varied shades
and held them dearer still. There was
no voice but of love and happiness in
the tree. One morning Merry Foot was
missing and the sad word was whispered
round that their darling Merry Foot was
lying on the ground. While they we're
earnestly planning to get her back Sill
yer Voice, who had been growing faint,
loosed her hold and fell beside her CON-
panioD. Soon the wind came to shake
the tree and another and another came
down. A few weeks more and the tree
was standing leahess and loveless. 1t
hung down its head, and its branches
drooped in grief. Some little snowfakes
in the sky looked with pity upon the sor-
rowful tree, and one said, '.Were a leaf
other Tn saGfd aGd the I've e can GO and pity it at
least" Down came the little snowhakes
so lightly and tenderly that the tree
needed them not till their weight remind
ed it of the time when it was loaded with
its precious leaves. 1t started as from a
troublesome dream, and the snowhakes
said, 1--WE came to comfort you for your
lost treasures" The wise tree then be-
gan to look up instead of down and so
learned its lesson. 1t said, "God has
some good for all times" It's heart
grew happy once more, and it loved its
white covering, remembering that it was
an emblem of purity. Then it said, 81
wish I might tell to mankind the lesson
l have learned. How can 1 tell them
that God makes up all losses that when
one blessing has done its part and is
taken away He sends another? How
can I tell them that the heart which is
always looking up is always full Of love
and peace?" At last it said, "My face
shall express it and l will look in at the
window till some one reads it there"

THE ATLANTIC CABLE.

The first attempt to lay the Atlantic
Telegraph Cable was made in March,
1857, by company organized in Eng
land and America. The laying of the
cable was commenced at Valentia,. Ire
land. Aug. $, 1857. The vessels en-
ployed were the Niagara and Susque-
hanna (American,) and the Leopard and
Agamemuon (British.) After laying
three hundred miles of wire the cable
snapped. Another attempt was made
June 20, 1857, but ended in failure. A
third attempt was made in August of
the same year and the cable was laid
(2,050 miles, extending from Valentia,
in Ireland, to Newfoundland The in
sulation of the wire gradually became
faulty and the power of transmitting in
telligence ceased September 4th, 1858.
A new company was formed in 1860,
but no further attempt to lay the cable
was made until 1866. In July. 1865,
the Great Eastern started from Valentia,
but after paying out l,2l3 nautical
I miles, the cable parted and, was aban-
doned Led by Cyrus W. Field and
others, the shareholders of the Atlantic
Telegraph Company joined with the new
Anglo-American Company in another
effort in 1866. The Great Eastern lef
the entrance OF Valentia Bay, July l3
and arrived off Hearts Content, Trinity
Bay. Newfoundland, July 27. The ca
ble,-1 1854 miles in length, was success
fully laid. The cable has for conduct
or seven estrands of wire, six laid around
one, and this imbedded in Chatterton
compound. The insulater is four lay
ers of gutta percha, laid on alternatel,
with thinner layers of CEatterton's com
pound. The outer coat is ten solit
wires galvanized, each surrounded sep
arately with five strands of white Man
lila yarn. There are several other i'm
portant submarine telegraph cables
none of them as long as the Atlantic
however. .-.a-~

fection to know that legal forces are be-
ing improved by an infusion of the gen.
tility of French comedy. Aside from
this, Mr.. Halls trial is of no interest or
Importance if he had been convicted, no
one would have believed in his guilt; if
he be freed in another trial, no one will
have faith in his innocence. In either
dilemma lawyers will make handsome
fortune, which after all seems to be the
object of the trial. Mr.. Tweed is the
next simple, pure-souled victim of a "foul

HOW'S YOUR HORSE.

When man meets man or the street.
And each the other quickly greet,
They thus begin their brief discourse
With the einquiry.-"How's your horse?'
At every station on the road
The people, painting with their load,
just gain the cars with voices hoarse
Ask their neighbors "How's your horse %
The crate, the bale, the trunk and box
Are left exposed upon the docks.
In depot, warehouse, store and shop
All heavy goods are sure to stop
