AN EXPERIMENTAL old bachelor at
New Orleans tells how he was deferred
from committing matrimony in the fol-
lowing way: Thinking over the sub.
ject, and particularly Of the expense OF
maintaining family, he set the table in
his lonely abode with plates for himself
and imaginary wife and five children.
He then sat down to dine, and as often
as he helped himself to food he put the
same quantity on each Of the other
plates, and surveyed the prospect at
the same time comparing the cost. He
concluded to remain single.

A Staring Match.

Miss Swisshelm. in a letter from Ger
many to the Chicago Tribme. gives the
following account of a staring match she
had with a naughty. wicked man:
There were three young ladies with
me from London. and l noticed that.
after we got out of England. the men
along the road seemed to I've troubled
with the stares. but no one made him
self especially obnoxious until we ar
rived at the Leipzig Hotel. The train
reached the station at $50 p. NJ. and it
was ten by the time we had seen our
rooms and got down into the coffee
room for supper. There were six or
eight men sitting at the different tables,
two and two. eating or drinking. and all
hut one suspended motion to stare. and
stared rs if we had been Il menageric
brought in for exhibition. l felt in
stantly that we had found something
new under the sun. and took n seat next
the wall, as / could best face such folks
We were all hungry and tired. l thought
these critical observers would soon see
that we came there to eat. and. for some
time. took no notice of them: but most
of them kept up their stare. and. when
our meal was about half over. one mid
tle-aged man. who, l afterward learned.
was II merchant man of property
and standing '-nudged his companion
across the table. turned squarely. plant
ell his elbows on the arm Of his chair.
his chin in his hand, and made his best
effort in the most insulting stare il was
possible for human face to get up. di-
81. rl ~, lad I'll, ~
sat with her profile toward him. |
dropped hand on each side of my
plate. holding my knife and fork point
upward, fixed my eyes on his. and stared
until attracted his attention. l knew
that every man in the room was looking
on to see what would come of it; and he
and I had one good. long. dead-levcl
stare. l would have liked to have
thrown our decantcr of water Mt his
head, but did not move a muscle; and
there we sat and stared into each others
eyes until the spirits which looked out
of his owned their master, and sue
cumbed. never saw II man look more
like whipped spaniel than he did
while he remained in the room. He
turned to the table and tried to go on
with his coffee. but it seemed to stick in
his throat. He turned his back to us.
and seemed really ut loss for occupa-
ton while waiting for us to leave, and
was in no hurry. The amusing part Of
it was, that the girls whom he intended
to insult did not know anything about
it, and wondered what was staring ut.
We met that man several times after
ward at the table d'hotc. when the other
men present stopped eating, according
to the custom of the country, to turn
around as we entered and left the room,
to stare and comment but that particu-
lar one never saw us after that first even
ing"

A REMARKABLE Occurrence. - An
almost incredible occurrence TRANSFERRED
in the northern part of Putnam, and tho
southern part Of Duchess counties,
New York, recently. After sunset IL
large thunder cloud came up, apparently
from the northeast, accompanied by nm
unusual amount of chain lightning. Tho
rain subsequently came in torrents, and
the lightning increased its vividness.
and flashed on hundreds of wild geese.
which were in tho ponds of shallow
water that exist in that locality. Sew
eral persons who witnessed the remark
able phenomenon, state that the geese
acted very strange, as though hunters
had discharged % v0lley among them.
The darkness grew impenctrable, but
the farmers in the vicinity thought no
more of the occurrence till one Satur-
day. when they began to find dead geese.
and hear Of hundreds being picked up
by their neighbors. One man picked
up from his farm all that II horse could
haul, for their feathers. Their bills
were split into fragments. Many of
them had the feathers on their backs
burned to crisp, and their bodies
burstel open. The portion Of the coun-
try thus affected was nearly a quarter Of
n mile in breadth, and several miles in
extent.

A REMARKABLE MARRIAGE.-An OK
traordinary marriage took place at Jew
ington, England. the other day, tho
ceremony being performed by the Very
Reverend Archdeacon Philpot, in the
presence of a very large congregation.
The married couple both belong to the
parish Of Lexington, but the singular
part is that the bride had no arms, and
the ring had to be placed on the third
toe of the left foot. At the conclusion
of the marriage ceremony she signed the
marriage register, holding the pen with
her toes, in very decent "hand."

A CORRESPONDENT wants to know the
best way to preserve cherries. Around
here one way is to climb the trees with
a shotgun at dark, and stay there till
morning. Another way is to carry the
tree into the house every night at sun
set. The only sure way, however. is to
eat the cherries before they are ripe

SCARED TO DEATH BY A Coon S1GN.-
A young lady in Reading, Pennsylva-
MIA, has just died, most injudiciously
and indiscreetly, Of fright, caused by
misunderstanding natural phenome-
non of the most consolatory character.
She had her photograph taken and
showed the picture to her mother, who
examined it and then said in German,
"Why, this picture has a deaths head
on it," She pointed to the tie worn
about the lady's throat, and what looked
like skull was distinctly seen on the
picture, and it excited some curiosity.
No attention was paid to this, and a
few days afterward one of her photo
graphs was looked at again, and to their
great establishment they discovered that
the figure, or what greatly resembled
it, of another skull had appeard just
above it. This was also pointed out to
the young lady, and she became deathly
pale, and took to her bed. She slowly
sank, and in two months after she had
the pictures taken she was corpse.
Obviously these two deaths heads
meant that the young lady would have
two husbands, and survive them both.
Instead of which she allowed her mex
perienced mother to brighten her to
death. The education of young women
in this country is not what is should be.

BEAUTIFUL 1NCIDENT.-The venerable
John Quincy Adams had been stricken
down at his home in Quincy, Mass, by
paralysis. He was, therefore, unable
to take his seat in the second session of
the twenty-ninth Congress until Febru-
airy 10, 1847, nearly ten weeks after its
assembling. On that day, while Mr.
Hunt, of New York, was addressing the
House, the aged. tottering ex-President
was seen at the center door of the hall.
At once all eyes were attracted, and Mr..
Huntsuspendedh his speech. Mr.. Mosely,
of New York, and Mr.. Holmes, of South
Carolina, advanced to Mr.. Adams, and,
each taking him by the arm, conducted
him to the seat he had for many years
occupied. Numbers gathered around
the venerable patriot to congratulate
him on his return. In a few minutes,
Mr.. Adams, much affected by the cor
dial tenderness of his reception, rose,
and in a feeble voice briefly thanked the
House. Mr.. Hunt then resumed his
speech.
Our OF THE WATER. French ply
sician makes the remarkable statement
that one-half at least of the so-called
drowned persons are buried alive, and
that they may be brought to life by
proper treatment after having been sew
eral hours under water. His remedy is
to get ont the water, pour in and inject
alcoholic stimulants. and use q whip en-
ergetically, or hot irons in bad cases.
His statement has been partially con-
firmed by the resuscitation of man
after he had been under water in ono of
the Seine baths for more than twenty
minutes.

INDIAN JUGdLERy. finally an empty
flower pot was placed upon the floor by
the juggler, who requested that his com
rades might be allowed to bring up some
garden mould from the little plot of
ground below. Permission being accord
ed, the man went, and in two minutes re-
turned with small quantity of fresh
earth tied up in corner of his chuder,
which was deposited in the flower pot
and lightly pressed down. Taking from
his basket dry mango stone and hand
ing it round to the company that they
might examine it, and satisfy themselves
that it was really what it seemed to he,
the juggler scOoped out little earth
from the centre of the flower pot and
placed the stone in the cavity. He then
turned the earth lightly over it, and hav-
ing poured little water over the sur
face, shut the flower pot out of view by
means of a sheet thrown over u small tri-
angle. And now, amid n full chorus of
voices and rat-tat-tat accompaniment of
the tabor, the stone germinated; present
~ section of the cloth was drawn aside,
and gave to view the tender shoot char
acterized by two long leaves OF black
bu-OTOWu COlOTs uc CIotu WIS Tc'tttJuSU
ed, and the incarnation resumed. Not
long was it, however, before the cloth
was second time drawn aside, and IL
was then seen that the two first leaves
had given place to several green ones,
and that the plant now stood nine or ten
inches high. A third time. and the TO-
liage was much thicker, the sapling be-
ing about thirteen to fourteen inches in
height. A fourth time, and the little
miniature tree, now about eighteen inches
in height, had ten or twelve mangocs
about the size of walnut hanging about
its branches. Finally, after the lapse of
three or four minutes, the cloth was re-
moved altogether, and the fruit, having
the perfection of size, though not Of
maturity, was plucked and handed to the
spectators, and found to be approaching
ripeness, being sweetly acid.
