CAUGHT IN A GRATING Somewhere
lately | read Of young lady who
caught her foot in the pavement, and a
minister gong on his knees in the pub
lie street to help her made spectacle Of
much merriment That's nothing to
the experience of a young friend of
mine. She mounted on two very slens
der feet, and going out last winter,
wearing brand new par of boots, whose
soles were rediculously narrow, she
paused in front of shop window, on
Broadway, and desiring a nearer view
OF some articles, she stepped upon
grating that covered the cellar entrance
to the store. Her right foot must have
executed parrot step, for mash went
her foot between the CRATES, carried by
her weight through above her ankle
bone. Then she was fast enough. She
tugged, but that was of no avail. A
hundred and forty pounds of woman
drove it in, and no amount of back pul
ling budged it an inch. What was she
do? Other ladies stopped at the
window and probably wondered at the
transfxed attitude of the unfortunate
creature Finally she took heart and
mplored the aid Of sister female The
new conner saw at once that with that
boot on, that foot would never come
out. So she went inside and stated the
case to the gentlemanly clerk, who
promptly went down into the cellar,
mounted the stairs, unbuttoned the
boot and released the poor prisoner, who
skipped into the store in her stocking
foot, resumed her boot and hoped
away You may be sure she'll never
stand on any more gratings as long as
she lives.-N Yorlc Correspondence of

FOLLOWING A Buck TO SEA.-Dar
ing the recent camp hunt on St. James
Island by some of our citizens, says the
Tallahassee Floridian, an incident oc-
cured which is, perhaps, without par
allel in the annals of hunting, and de-
serves to be recorded. A large buck,
closely pursued by the famous stag
hound, Old Ring, belonging to Mr..
Hopkins. took water and headed right
to sea; the dog, without hesitation, bold-
ly followed him in his voyage over the
dark and treacherous waves" They
were watched with intense interest by
the hunters until each was mere speck
upon the surface Of the sea, and until
they were totally and finally lost to all
view After some time when it was
supposed that both dog and deer had
found watery and perhaps bloody
grave in mortal combat, or had been
devoured by sharks, small object was
discovered which proved to be Old
Ring, returning from his long swim
much exhausted, butreaching the shore
in safety; but to the great surprise of
the spectators, after time the deer al
so appeared in sight, making right for
shore, on reaching which he was shot
down by one of the hunters

From the Baltimore Gazette.I
Last night. at the meeting of the
school board, John I. Morris, Esq, the
president, presented a letter from VIM.
+. Taylor, colored, who resides at No.
36 Lewis street, in this city, which read
as follows: II have heard SO many ex-
pressions OF kindness and gratitude
from men and women of my own color
for the very gratifying educational facil-
tiles you have made and are max.
ing in our behalf, and caunot do
less in this direction than to
give you the humble and
sincere acknowledgement in their behalf
for the ample provision you are making
to educate orT children. The large and
splendid school edifices you are erecting
in several localities of our city for our
educational benefits fill our minds with
thankfHlness and our children with de-
light. So much so that the mixedsschool
system, which, through the eivii-rigbts
bill, is intended to be forced upon the
people against their will, cannot find
lOdgment. We are opposed to the
whole thing. All we ask is that our
children be allowed those educational
advantages and facilities that are accord
ed to all others, and no more. Our chill
dren are learning so rapidly under the
present school system that to have
another system inaugurated so otiec.
tionable to both classes, as is sought to
be done by the adoption of the civil
rights bill, would be downright madness.
The mixed school agitation can do no
good; so let it be dropped. Please ex-
cuse mistakes, and l remain your obe-
dent seFvant.n The letter was referred
to the committee on colored schools.

THE SOUTH.
Caueus OF ReDubIie8n Senators Dis
eussiag sOutheFa Anairs-stFaws
that Indicate the Course OF
the Wind.

WASHINGTON, December 19.-At the
caucus of Republican senators to-day,
there was a unanimous expression that
all citizens in the south must be pro-
tected In their lawful rights. Some
senators suggested there should be an in
crease Of the army; Others were OF the
opinion that the improved militia ar
rangement would better secure protec-
ticn, while being less Objectionable
than the regular military force, and more
in accordance with the spirit OF our in
sti,utions. The question was adjourned
TO q future but early day. The caucus
committee on southern affairs will
not make any'recOmmendation with
regard to Arksnsas until the committee
appointed by the house shall have made
their report. Therefore, the Arkansas
question was not discussed. There was
indispositiOn manifested to take action
relative 10 the Kellogg government as
to admitting P.nchback. II was said
there were questions before the commit.
tee on privileges and elections affecting
him which should be Grst settled. Most
Of the time of the caucus was consumed
on the finance question. The debate
took a wide range, but all who spoke
expressed the opinion that something
should be done, and therefore 1t was part
OF statesmanship to harmonic their
views, il possible. The committee OF
eleven, Sherman chairman, before they
brought their report into caucus,
differed, seven being in favor of re.
port and four against it, but finally,
on motion OF one of the four,
the report was made unanimous and
adopted by the caucus. The bill agreed
upon will be presented at an early day
TO the senate, and according to the best
attaipable information &c provides fol
the resumption Of specie payment on
January 1, 1873; for free banking, and
for the retiring Of greenbaeks 70 the ex-
tent OF eighty per cent. Of the amount
of new national bank-notes issued, and
also requires f0rty-six million OF the
