a HoRnIBLE DEATH.-On Thursday of

ford, his wife and five children. Just

awoke to discover the house in flames.
She had an infant occupying the bed
with her, and little boy of three years
old, and two girls, one of four and one
Of eight years old, sleeping on the floor.
On being aroused by the fire, in an III
most sutfocated condition, she rushed
on the ground and attempted to return
for the other children. Just as sha got
in the door, and beheld her little boy
standing UP on his pallet, calling with
loud screams for his mother, the house
fell in. burying the children up, and nj
most destroying the mother.

THE REnELLIoN BrGABoo. -Insurrec-
tionary resistance to federal autho-
rity may happen in the South, and
it may happen in the North; it mny be
wantonly provoked and its suppression
may cost money and trouble, but there is
not shadow of reason for anticipating
any further attempts to separate from the
Union, or any rebellion whatever on n
large or formidable scale. If there be
any demagogues North or South who
are working to this end, they will tail
from the inexorablc nature of things.
The State Of New York could, to-day,
make n more formidable resistance to the
General Government than the entire
South. That section is like an invalid
who can walk about, but cannot throw
away the crutch The gi"nt who taxe,l
the full resources Of the nation II lew
years ago. now appeals to our pity rather
than awukens our fears.

An unexpected assessment was made

Remarkable Artesian Well.
From the Quincy Illinois) Herald.

~AA VAN S'AAAAIJ kAiA1AOLs) hefdlu.
Yesterday morning, as Mr.. A. Ham
mond, OF Jacksonville, was engaged in
digging well on the farm of Stephen
Grooves, of Houston, he was astonish-
ed to suddenly see a stream of sand,
gravel and water thrown high in the air.
The well is A feet in diameter,
and % feet deep. They then COM
menced boring for water, but hardly
had the drill been forced through more
than four feet and been withdrawn be-
fore this sudden stream was seen COM
ing through the hole and thrown at
least thirty feet high above the surface
OF the ground, the water falling in
perfect shower. In two minutes after
ward there was from two to four feet of
water in the we'll; in ten minutes there
was over five feet, and in less than forty
i've minutes there was over eight feet of
water In the we'll. And it continued
to boil over the top, arising six to eight
feet above the surface. The well has
been sunk on land where they were
never able to find water before. Those
who have seen it pronounce it one of
the greatest freaks they ever saw. Mr..
Hammond has been sinking a number
OF wells IN that part of the country, and
never fails to find water before asking
for pay

The Parse's On Money and Mattresses

W" 'AVhOJ f1Hu AlS1ItESCS
Adersey Curiosibhoy, Parsee mer-
chant OF Bombay, has discovered that
mistress and an rredeemable cur
rency are twin sisters, and resemble
each other as closely as eggs do eggs.
mistress rests her fortune and STA
tlon on the tickle faith of her lover: 80
does an irredeemable currency.
"A mistress is repudiated when her
lover hnds suitable legitimate spouse;
an al understandable currency is likewise
discarded when the people return to q
sound and legitimate money.
A mistress continually represents to
her lover the superior advantages of her
relations to him, as, though she is all to
MIN that wife could be, she is only a
mistress; thus an irredeemable currency
urges tnat, though 1t serves all the pur-
poses OF legitimate money, it is only
rag.
A mistress is three times as expensive
as legitimate wife; an irredeemable
currency also is thrice as expensive as a
coin currency.
A mistress is always at discount in
decent society; ditto an irredesmable
currency.
The Reputation of mistress is only
question OF time; SO is the Reputation
OF an irredeemable currency.
The end of mistress is the gutter;
an lrredeemable currency tends newt
ably to the chifoniers basket.
The Parsee appeals to every honest
woman ia the land whether the curse of
rag money is not an enemy to society,
and the sworn foe of decencv.
