in the Miami Valley was struck
by lightning and rent from top to
bottom. in falling apart the frsg-
mcnts disclosed a skeleton, yellow
with ngc, which instantly fell to
pieces and scattered over several
feet Of ground. With the remains
were found few buttons of an.
cient pattern and a leather
pocketbook we'll preserved. The
book contained papers which
discovered the secret Of the en-.
,Ombcd skeleton. The RENAME
were those Of R'ger Vandenburc,
u captain in tho Revolutionary
army and an aldo to General
Washington. Alter participating
in the privations OF Valley Forge

and capinred. but managed to es-
cape, aud being closely pursued,
took refuge in this oak tree. The
hollow tree gavo him n hiding
place, and to make his retreat still
moro secure from observation he
allowed himself to drop into it
He had mistakened tie depths
and whom too late discovered that
he was walled in and without the
possibility Of escape. lilo spent
the remaining hours Of his lifo in

LADY's BooK.--We have received the
December number of Goodey's Lady's Book
which a. usual accomplishes what we
thought impossible, surprising it's prede-
cessor. We have not time to say word
even of the reading matter, and of the IL
lustrations only that they surpass any
thing Of the kind we ever saw or dreamed
Of. First is the title page illhstrated by
Q select engraving called the Workshop of
Santa Claus, the quaint oddity and humor
of which no words can describe Next
comes a gem, a chrome entitled Winter at
Home, then magnificent colored fashion
Plate double page, and then again five or
six others illustrating ladies and childrens
dresses, honnets, hats and other articles of
dress, and one Of new styles of furniture,
worth at least the full price asked for the
number. 1t is impossible to overate the
merits Of this publication considering it's
design, and when We say of each number
that it equals or surpasses the last, praise
is exhausted.
