Falling from Grace.

In one of the towns of New Jersey
there lived noted bruiser and boxer
who was tho terror Of his neighborhooC
and stencil in the nostrils of all hon
est folks. During tho past winter be
was brought to see tho error of his ways
became converted, and joined the church
After this he was mercilessly abused by
his associates whom he had abandoned
and his new-found virtue was put to
many Q severe test. Little wretches
who had never before ventured within
reach of his powerful hand, now came
about as did the lesser beasts around the
sick lion, and tainted him with impuni
ty. After this had gone on some little
while, and he was goaded almost TO des.
peration, one day, in the street he was
surrounded by number Of bis old &C.
quaintances, who began to irritate and
harass him more industriously than ev-
or. Drawing himself to his full height,
and barring his brawny arm, the quon-
dam bruiser addressed the now terrified
crowd with
"If I eyer should fall from grace,
what terrible lamming some Of you
will get, to DO surew We are happy to
add that wholesome dread Of the con-
sequences which would follow the new
fall from grace, has since pro.
tected him from molestation.

A Null and Void Pledge.

A good joke came off quite recently
at the Court House. A person living {
short distance out of the village is in the
habit of frequently coming into town
and drinking to inebriation. At such
seasons no is accustomed to call on his
honor, Judge NJ. Recently he made
one of his visits, became decidedly tipsy,
called upon Judge NJ, and desired the
Judge to write him q pledge, asserting
his intention to cease drinking. His
honor wrote the pledge a. desired, and
the tipsy individual affixed his name
thereto. He then desired to have the
pledge, that he might take it home and
exhibit it to his wife. His Honor
thought he was himself the proper Gus
todian of the important agreement, bat
yielded to the solicitation Of tho man, NJ
the same time assuring him that il be
broke the contract, and appeared before
him again in . state Of intoxication, he
would have him locked up. A week
elapsed, and the Judge Was confronted
by the same man, as tipSy IS aforetimes.
Chow is this?" said his Honor; "did l
not tell you l would have you locked up
if you did not keep ycur agreement"
"Judge NJ" said the tipsy fellow, "do
you think am . fooi know what
am about. I'll show you If | am . fool"
and he drew forth his wallet from his
pocket, took out his pledge, unfolded it,
worn creases, and holding it uptriun-
phaptly exclaimed, "Win you Just show
me the U. ). lnternsl Revenue stamp
on that agreement" The Judge cavsd.

Tehacity OF Life.

An Irishman, aitcr listening with
great interest to conversation on the
tenacity OF ANNA! life in animals, in
which many remarkable anecdotes were
related, burst out with:
"Shure, IN it's eonger eel is the most
tenacious bugger. At me fathers house
in Galway, me and mo two brithers
caught . conger some thing like 81 fate
long, and as thick as my leg. Well, yer
honors, We hauled him up to the house,
and bate him with crOwbars for about
an hour, and then picked his brains out
with me brither's penkife. twas get
ting near bed time, and befor turning
in, to make all safe, We tied him up by
the tish-lino to the leg OF the kitchen ia
BILE. An it's remarkable coincidence,
and yer honors will hardly credit il, but
when we came down stair, that conger
cell was sitting in one of the kitchen
chairs and warming himself at the ioire
as though nothing had happened at all,

Down ina Silver ui...

A Virginia City correspondent to
the New Orleans Times, who recently
decended the shaft of tho "Califernia
mine writs as fellows:
"Sixteen-fifty," said Mr.. Patton mys-
teriously, and down We went, down
twenty feet second, until our ears buzz
zed and we grew dizzy. Down We went
to the 1850 foot level, or within about
200 feet Of the greatest depth of excava-
ton. Description would fail to convey
anything like an intelligent idea of the
deptha from which already have been
raised 500, 900, 900 moro than any other
single mine in the world has produced.
Imagine . honey-comb as largo as .
Mississippi steamboat on q scale that
would make yourself me size Of an aunt,
and you have some idea Of the extent of
of the catacomb mine. 1t is q labyrinth
OF timber tunnels, branching out in q
bewildering number of directions, in the
great length Of whose turns, curves, and
angles q stranger would soon become
hopelessly lost.
These tunnels are timbered with pine
wood pests, six feet high, fourteen inch.
es square. Attic bottom Of every pass
age are land iron tracks upon which the
precious ore is brought in hand cars
carrying two tons to the shaft. The
lower depths of the shaft are warm in
some places they are very hot or cold,
as the facilities for forcing air into the
wings are more or less completed. AL
ways ahead of the miners is the shaft
and pumps, which raise two million gal
Ions of water daily, and clear the way
for miners. The immense amount Of
timber that is used-stort, solid timbers
which crack and break very gradually,
but very surely with the swelling Of the
earth-is sent down from the mountains
in flume thirty miles long. This fume
has been travelled by two reckless men,
in "iume boat" in twelve minutes!
But why continue. Statistics could
furnish that would cover columns; de-
scriplions might 1 give, equally lengthy,
OF the labyrinth of tunnels that extend
through, under the Virginia City almost
the entire diameter of Mount Davidson.
