TEEN TWO STORIES.


\ goose ence saved Rome, and on
Sunday morning last the family OF
Mr.. Thos. Thomas, of Iorkvile, in
this county, was saved from a dread
ful death in their burning dwelling
by the warning Of cat, which had
herncst'of kittens in the siding Of the
house where the fire was set.
The readers Of the JOURNAL will
remember the incarceration, short
time stree, Of one John Thomas, for.
the burning Of the barn OF Mr.
Campbell, OF the town Of Yorkville,
and was bailed for the otiense in the
sum Of two thousand dollars. This
man Thomas is worth some thou
sands Of dollars, and has had diff
Guilty with his brother for some years,
alternately threatening, and it is sup
posed he is the party to the three
fires in that neighborhood, two Of
which have been fully reported in
the JOURNAL.
The third and last of the supposed
acts Of this fend was the burning of
his brothers house, in the dead of
night, with men, women and chill
dren asleep, and unconscious of the
sweep that was about TO be made Of
their home, their clothing, their all.
The fire was laid through an open
clapboard, and ran up the side OF
the house with fearful rapidity, and
ten persons sleeping in the house.
As the ire approached "Tabby" with
her little ones, she spsang to the bed
of the hired man, and in her way APP
pealed to him to "save her child" 1t
Is to this feline that the family of Mr..
Ihos. Thomas owe their lives. In
Ten minutes their roof fell in. The
dwelling soon after was shoulder
ing ruin, and the whole family in
open air, with hardly a fig-leat in
comparison to clothing.
After the fire John Thomas. the
supposed incendiary, came up to the
scene Of the confagration, and was,
Summarily bounced upon and severe
ly punished by the assembled indig-
hant neighbors, but finally got away.
Sheriff Dickinson went out on Sun
cay to arrest Thomas, but he is still
at large Thomas is under bail of
$1,000 for the buning of Mr.. Camp
bells barn.
Since the above was put in type,
Thomas was arrested in the woods IN
the town Of Raymond, by Deputy
Sheriff Kline, and lodged in jail. A
representative of the JOURNAL inter
viewed the prisoner in Jail yesterday,
and his story is TO the effect that his
brothers family are preiudiced
against him, and he being bachelor,
want 10 get him ont of the way that
they may get his property. He says,
lie Is innocent Of the charges. This
IS his story; as journalists we give
both sides.-RAcI"z JOURNAL.

AN ITALIAN CITY Y-Florence, notwlthstand-
ing the brightness ot the picture which strikes
the traveller when he first enters the town, Is
not a gay city; everything that IS characteristic
to the Tuscan mlud is OF a grave and serious
nature The houses, which rise out OF the Ar
no, bright with soft tints of color, lrreg uiar,
picture que various, with roofs at every pos
sbe elevation, the one sole point necessary be-
ing that no two should have the same level
the outline broken with !ogglas, balcouies pro-
iec,ug lines, quaint cupolas, and spires; lhe
stream full below, rejecting every salient
point, every window on the nigh perpendlcu-
lar line, every cloud on the blue overarchiug
sky,-this fair conjunction gives, at the first
glance, that & cam of color, light, sunshine d
warmth which is cOnventlonay necessary to IN
Italian town-the sunny south, as We all sly
with indiscriminate terVor.
But there are many days ln which Florence
reminds the spectator of everything ln the
world rather than the sunny south; and nel-
ther the mind of her people nor the archltec-
ture Of her streets is of light description.
Dante, Mschiavcln, Savonarola, Michael An
gclo are pamrs that give the mind 20 superb
ciaI SENSATION of pleasurableness, but represent
to US perhaps-the most serious nen who have
figured on earth-men of certain mountainous
vastness and grandeur; with great light some
times dwelling Oh their heads, but still oftener
wrapped iu great glooms absorbed in coutcm-
plation Of the saddest side OF nature, Their
heads striking the stars, their souls eugr rossed
with high questions and problems such as
have Go easy su4utlon.
We have placed among these name which
the reader may think too highly houored; but
the cyuic philosopher and statesman is as cnar-
acterl,,ic Of the people as the great poet, the
great preacher the great painter, all tol!lug 10
sorrow and pity and wrath between sublime
God aud a miserable world lost 10 wickednesS
Serious as death and life can make theul are
these great spirits, called gloomy by superficial
spectators who cannot see beneath the gloom
the pathetic humanity the love and yearning
within; and So are their houses serious-great
walls, half fortress, bali prison, with deep, pro-
jectiug Tuscan roofs, which, like broad hat
over fair brow, veil the couutcnauce Of the
city, so to speak, and convey to us perpetual
impression of brooding so!emnity, if not of
compot and conspiracy. The churches, ex-
cept perhaps, the warm, familiar, curtaiued
elegance of the Anuunziata, are, like the city,
solemn, with dim greatness OF haltligtt
which adds to their size aud effect, but souue-
what chills the eye accustomed to Gothic varl-
ETY. Of light and shade. BlackNOodS Nag.

the foregoing. He was stunned SO that he did not
know what struck him or what he struck, for he
supposed az first ne had fallen. No arrests have
