WHAT SAVED HIM?-Down in Texas
the other day, white policeman was
taking negro to Jail. Other negroes
interiered, and the policeman was
knocked down. The assaulting negro
was arrested and put in jail. Three
hundred wnlte men combined to lynch
the negro, but they gave up the idea
when Col. Mcclure called upon the mob
to disperse, saying if the negro was
guilty he would be hanged legally, and
God, justice, and the political issue now
agiGaling the country" And now the
miserable negro is in doubt whether to
thank God, justice, or the political issue
for his life.

The RULE OF CoNTRARIEs.-Eith the
Japanese people do everything back
wards, left-handed and upside down, or
we do. A traveller in Japan writes: 81
see man planning. He pulls the plane
toward him. l notice blacksmith at
work. He pulls the bellows with his
feet, while he is holding and hamnering
with both hands. He has several irons
in the fire, ana keeps his dinner-pot
boiling with the waste flame. The cooper
holds his tub with his toes. All of them
sit down when they work. How strange
This is an important difference between a
European and an Asiatic. One sits down
to his work, the other stands up 10 it..
Why is it that we do things contrariwise
to the Japanesep The japanese say that
we are reversed. They call our pen.
manship 'crab-writing,' because, they
say, lit goes backward. In Japanese
stable we find the horses flank where
we look for his head. Japanese screws
screw the other way. Their locks thrust
to the left, ours to the right. The baby
toys of the Aryan race squeak when
squeezed; the Turaniau grimcracks emit
noise when pulled apart. A Caucasian,
to iniure his enemy, kills himself to
spite his foe. Which race is right?'

A FRIGHTFUL SCENE.-A frightful
scene TOOK place at the Yaise Railway
station, Lyons, on the I'd inst. A superb
Nubiau lion, intended for the Bidel
Menagerie, which had just arrived, was
left in the station awaiting orders from
it's owners. The superintendent took
the precaution Of removing the truck in
which the animal was brought to Lyons
into corner off the line of the ordinary
traffic, and put barricade around it to
prevent the accidental approach OF
strangers. All these steps, however, af-
torded only stimulant to the curiosity
OF some persons who happened to be in
tho station. Among them was cattle
merchant, who was seized with an in
sane desire to 60 up to the wild animal
and caress it as be might do cow or q
sheep that he had just purchased. He
put his arm inside the cage for this pur-
pose, but in another moment horrible

A correspondent OF The Baltimore
Gazette, writing from Lancaster, Penn,
relates the following aneedote of Thad-
deus Stevens: "Many years ago, when
Thaddeus Stevens was practicing law
in Lancaster, he was employed to defend
two bank officers who had been indicted
for conspiracy, they having used the
funds of the bank in speculation. All
the legal talent Of Philadelphia and sur
rounding counties had been engaged TO
assist In the prosecution. When the
trial was opened Mr.. Stevens
rose, and addressing the court,
said: If it please your hon
ors, presuming there are different de-
grees of guilt attached to the prisoners,
my clients, move they be tried separ-
ately.! The judge consulted for a few
moments with his associates, who con-
senting, the motion was granted and SO
recorded. Waiting some time for Mr..
Stevens to go on, the Judge at last be-
coming impatient, said impetuously {:
Proceed, Mr. Stevens, proceed. We are
waiting for yeu, Sir.' Stevens rose
deliberately, and looking around the
courtroom for moment, said: Did
your houors ever hear Of one man being
tried for conspiracy Then waving his
hand to his clients, he said: 'You can
go home; you can 20 home.' And they
did 60 home. The jury were discharged
and the court adjourned. And for this
piece OF legal strategy Thad. Stevens re-
ceived $5,000."
