Strange Sounds at Night.

Every one has noticed how many
singular sounds are heard at night
noises apparently unexplainable, and
consequently mysterious. Many
ghost story has sprung up from an
unaccountable noise; many a person
terrified beyond measure by an unex-
pected sound at midnight. Sir David
Brewster gives an excellent account OF
a mysterious night sound which would
have frightened many persons, but
which proved innocently harmless
when tested by steady observer, A
gentleman heard strange sound every
night soon after getting in bed; his
wife heard it also, but not at the time
when she retired, little earlier than
he. No probable cause could be as
sigened, and the effect upon the imag-
ination became very unpleasant. He
found some time afterward that the
sound came from a wardrobe which
stood near the head of his bead. He
almost always opened and closed this
wardrobe when undressing; but as
the door was little tight he could
not quite close it. The door, possibly
affected by gradual changes Of temp
ture, forced itself open with a sort of
dull sound which is over in an instant.
From the lady not being in the habit
OF using that wardrobe, the mystery
became associated with her husband
only. Had they given way to imagina.
tion, and never Investigated the affair,
another haunted house would have
beeen added to the long row already
standing.

Remarkable Discovery in Hungary.

Two peasants, while digging in the
woods skirting the village of lvan-Eg.
erzeg, near Pesth, suddenly came up
on what appeared to be square
structure of brick walls, with a stone
covering the aperature. Removing
this stone, they found that the walls
enclosed an opening in the earth, and
resolved to explore the shaft. Ac-
cordingly they prepared a rope lad.
der of the requisite length, secured
several lanterns, and then one of
them let himself down. At the bot
tom he stood in WOnderment as he
gazed upon a large square hall, the
walls covered with faded paintings,
chairs, benches and tables standing
around, ornamented with gold and
ivory and large, heavy doors, hung
with golden hinges, leading to other
rooms. The shepherd climbed the
ladder and told his companion of the
discovery. Both of them went down
together, and found themselves in a
succession of rooms abounding with
elaborately carved furniture of
style they had never seen before. In
some of them were low, large stands,
evidently once used for beds there
were also closets, bureaus containing
armlets, rings, medals, coins, daggers.
chains, swords, shields and helmets.
There were also breastplates of leath-
er, covered with iron, and studded
with ornaments in gold. Some of the
armlets they took away, broke them
up and carried them to Pesth for sale,
in which transaction they were arrest
ed, and the officers of the Hungarian
ministry of the interior began official
investigations. Their researches
clearly established it as fact that
this subterranean structure was un-
doubted1y an old Roman castle, built
many centuries before the Huns and
Magyars left their Asiatic homes to in
wade this part Of Europe. But how
this vast structure, which is said to
cover two acres, and built two stories
high, with massive walls of stone and
brick, was covered with earth to the
depth Of more than sixty feet, over
which forest of heavy timber had
grown up-a forest, too, that is men,
toned as existing in the Oldest pre-
served chronicles of the kingdom the
officers have so far found-is impossi-
BILE to account for. The shaft through
which the first discovery was made is
supposed to be chimney or observa-
tory.

Painful Extinction Of Animal Life.


The proposal has often been made
that as man considers it to be his duty
to put great numbers of animals to
death, some means should be tried
which shall make the killing an in
Simultaneous act. If this could he done,
not only pain but terror would be elm
mated. But this proposition has never
gone beyond the expression of hope.
In fact the sympathy for brutes ap-
pears to be of a very inactive and lazy
sort. One celebrated experimental,
who is busy defending the principle
and practice Of vivisection, and who
has tried to find some means of accom-
plishing this painless death, declares
that there is no public sentiment in it's
favor. He has settled upon the inhal-
alton of carbonic acid gas as the most
effective mode, but he says: ''There
is great deal of talk and great deal
of sentiment abroad on the question of
the sutferings of the lower animal
kingdom, but when an attempt is
made to relieve those sufferings by
the invention of methods for operating
surgically without the infliction of
pain, or for painless killing, the true
and vital sympathy which one would
expect in support of such practical
and humane efforts, until they are
made perfect and universal, can
scarcely be said to be found at all.
With the exception of a few, not a
dozen altogether, of really humane
ladies and gentlemen. have found no
one, out of the ranks of science, in the
least interested in the saving of suffer-
ings to which l am now directing at
tention. The man of science stands
and wonders at the strangeness of the
psychological problem before him +;
and, in spite of himself, is forced to
the conclusion that, practically, the
noise that is made at him in the name
of humanity is, after all, sounding
brass and tinkling cymbal."

From the Milwaukee Seebote.

From the Milwaukee Seebote.
Yesterday afternoon a lady dragged
two traveling-bags up West Water
street. Sne appeared to be suffering
from the effects of the cold tempera-
ture of the weather and her features
indicated that she was in a very dis
agreeable frame of mind. On reaching
Spring street, she met a man coming
around the corner with his overcoat
carefully buttoned up and with a fif-
teen-cent cigar in his mouth.
"You miserablv wretch,'' was her
greeting, as she dropped the travelling
bags.

Sagacity Of a Fowl.

A Gentleman of Colyton, Devon, tells
the following story, as showing the
amount of sagacity in the common
fowl.
For some time past he has had a
tribe Of fowls, which, instead of roost-
ing in the house intended for them,
have persisted in taking for their
abode at night a fine Portugal laurel
situated in his grounds. During the
last few months neighbor's hen has
been in the habit Of joining his fowls,
and roosting with them. The neigh
Dor, after various vain attempts to
keep the hen on his own premises: at
length bethought. himself of tying the
hens legs with a short string, in a
similar manner to that in which a
horse is 'hobbed.' But the bird soon
overcome this impediment, and re-
sumed her old haunt.
Shortly after her return in this
snobbled' condition, the whole house.
hold was startled just before dusk one
evening by strange noise outside
the house, and on looking to see the
cause, they found the cock belonging
to the above mentioned brood of fowls
walking up and down in very excited
manner, and giving utterance to a
shrill noise, which more resembled a
rapid succession of crows than any
thing else. At length they went out
to him, and he fed, still scream, towards
the Portugal laurel, where, on follow
ing him, they found the poor shobbled'
hen suspended by her string from ono
of the branches, and they cut her down
in time to save her life. Did not this
show sense in the male worthy of a
higher name than instinct!
