PRAcTIcAL JOKES OF MEDICAL STu-
DESrs.-Colorcd people are, as a rule,
very superstitious, and constantly filed
with u dread of "spooks,' and other su.
termtnral aud mysterious things.
Knowing this, medical students seem to
delight in playing pranks upon the un-
suSprcting of the race. One OF these
Practical jokes, which nearly resulted in
the death OF the victim, was pcrpctratcd
at Il well known medical school astew
days since, a student was gong along
one OF the streets in the western part of
the city when he met Il young negro man,
whom he accostel, and offered to cngage
to carry box tor him. The negro read
lily accepted the plvfftrcd employment
and followed the student to the college.
At the door the medical sprig informed
the COlored man that the box was up
stairs, and the man, not suspecting the
character OF the institution, followed him
20 the third floor, where the dissecting
room is situated. The students purpose
wns to irghten the man, by suddenly
exposing to his view the ghastly array of
corpscs, and then enjoy the CONSERVATION
liable to result. When he opened the
dc and the negro caught sight OF the
mutilstcd and disiigurcd "stitfs," tab.
leau ensue,l. The colore man imagined
that he had been enticcd into the room
for dissection, and the thought Of his
coming to such sliapclcss mass of inan-
innate flesh as he saw around him WAS
too much for his nerves, and he gave
way to series OF violent and spasmonic
commissions. This alarmed tho janitor
and the lew students who were present,
and they at once hustled him down stairs
and cut on the pavement, where he soon
II ived, to some extent. He was sub.
scquenty taken to the house of col
ored man in the neighborhood until able
to 80 about, which was several hours
thereafter. This is not the first time col
orcd people have been frightened in n
dissecting room, if a student, from whom
the above information was CLEANED, may
be believed, and the practical jokers may
some day get picked up."-S. Louis

The Carlisle (Ky.,) Mercury has this
story: A relative Of Gov. Metcalfc has
furnished us with the following incident,
which will illustrate the habit old
Stone.hammcr' hnd of playing practical
jokes. Some time before the introduc.
tion of railroads Gov. Mrtcalfe repre-
scnted in Congress district of which
Nicholas county WAS part. Mr.. Clay
was Secretary of State under John
Quincy Adams. 1t was the custom 10
make the trip to the national capital in
private conveyance. II was in the days
of Mr.. Clay's greatest popularity that
the two distinguished politicians agreed
to travel to Washington in Gov Met
calfe's carriage; and, all the arrange
mcnts perfected, they started together
from the latter's Forest Retreat hsme.
in this county. While passing through
the State Of Pennsylvania, Mr.. Clay told
Gov. Metcalfo that he had received init
nations that In certain town they were
approaching he would be honorcd
with an ovation by the citizens (they,
like thousands of his fellow.coun-
trymcn, loved him, bu. had never seen
hini.) Just before coming to town Gov.
Mctcalft, who had all along been driv-
ing, suggested to Mr.. Clay that he take
the lines and drive ns he himself was
tired. Mr.. Clay readily consented, where
upon the Governor took the back seat in
the carriage. The hOnorcd statesman
drove the team successfully into the town
and they were met by large concoursc
of people. Gov. Metcalfe alighted from
the carriage and being asked whether he
was Mr.. Clay, answered yes, that he was
glad to meet them, etc; and at this the
crowd fairly hoisted him upon their
shoulders and triumpharty started with
him to the place Of reception. Looking
back at Mr.. Clay, who still sat in the
carriage somewhat nonplussed, the Gov
ernor cried, Driver, take those horses to
the stable and feed them"

The house Of Rev. Mr., Lynch hy loud and
unu,ull noise in the way OF Sh"ulins'
singing aud praying, and upon going to
the house the doors were discovered
b,rred on the inside. Admiitancc WAS
refused by the inmates, and the doors
were broken open, when the shocklnc
surc,ncle of Il nude man and women
stood erect on the floor. The man proved

~ wears old upon the bed plank was
Icing, on which q beautiful child, two
wears OF age, was lying cold in death,
with its skull mashed in, Lynch, the ia
th.r of the dead child, told the intruders
that his child had for some time been
u,,sessed OF the devil, anl that they had
destroyed and cast out the devil in obc-
dencc to the special injunction of the
Lord. At the the time he and his sister
in-law were chanting hymns over the in
nocent babe, its mother and man whose
name could not learn, were down in
the brush near the house Shrlcking Wilt
~ and praying to God. The Rev. Mr..
lynch and his sstcrin.law were taken
into custody and brought to this place
and lodged III our county Jail.

converse freely on all subjects except tue
