As q train on the Susquehanna rail-
road drew into Unadilla, New York, the
other day, the conductor and brakeman
heard very singular noise in a barn
near the depot. They stepped over and
we're surprised to see bulldog holding
a horse down with his teeth set in the
horss's throat and the poor creature
strangling. They thrust a h-fork
into tho dog until he let go and the horse
sprang up. But the dog leaped at him
again. and seized his throat and threw
him. The railroad men struck the dog
several blows with a heavy iron bar,
which laid him senseless.

The Zimmerman family, OF South
street, Philadelphia, who were poisoned
by eating diseased pork about ten days
ago, are still suffering. Mrs. thinner
man and her son are confined to their
beds, their limbs being drawn up in
such a manner as to prevent their put
ting them to the floor. The father,
though able TO be around the house, is
swollen about the legs, and has every
appearance of being afflicted with the
dropsy. The daughter is getting bet
ter. DR.. Barton, who attended the
family, recently fed several dogs with
the meat, and all of them became sick.
He then treated them with the same
as administered to the Zim-
mermans, by this means curing some of
the animals, but the greater number Of
them died. An examination of the re-
mains showed the CANNES to have been
killed by the disease communicated by
the pork.

STEAMSHIP SUNK AT SEA.

saved.
The steamship Borussia, Of the Do
minion and Mississippi line, was aban
doned at ses in sinking condition on
December 2 by a part Of her crew, ten
Of whom were picked mp In a small
boat, by the ship Nationwide, and were
landed yesterday at Quesnstown. There
were on the steamer crew OF "a and
$50 passengers.
How many Of these remained on
board and how many escaped In boats
the conflicting reports leave In doubt;
but the rescued men have little hope
that any besides themselves survive.
They believe that the vessel sunk in
the darkness Of the night, while they
were still only short distance from
her; and that the other boats were
swamped by the heavy waves.
"The Times" Cork dispatch Bays ten
men, survivors from the Borussia, were
landed by the MallowaAle. Their
names are as follows: William Stuart
Day, doctor /; Doolittle, third officer
Wyiie, fourth engineer Henry Brown,
boatswaiu; William Banese, able sea-
man James Dixon, quartermastsr
Alexander Johnson and Henry Steven
son, stewards, and Patrick Cain and
Patrick Quinn, coal-trimmers.
One of the passengers states that
seventy-six passengers embarked at
Liverpool. The vessel reached Coruna
on November 18th, all we'll. After hay
ing shipped some cargo and embarked
about 50 Spanish emigrants, the b.
russia proceeded to Havana Oh the 26th,
the wind being light from the south
east, with a calm sea. On November
80 the wind freshened and increased to
a gale. On the following day 1t changed
to the north.north- west, blowing
strong, with q cross sea, in which the
ship labored heavily. At noon she
sprang leak amidships. All efforts
at the pumps were fruitless TO keep
the ship free. The water filed the
aud stokehole, putting out
the fires and stopping the engines.
The crew still continued to work
at the pumps until next Tuesday I'd
inst. when 1t was determined to aban-
don the vessel. Her boats were pro-
and launched and a part Of
the crew, with about dozen passen-
gers got into them. Those Of the crew
who remained by the vessel were the
captain, second mate, three engineers,
slevsn fremen, three stewards, the
and two boys.
Shortly after leaving the vessel one
Of the boats swamped, and the occu-
pants, five in number, were drowned.
The survivors state that the steam
,r's covering board, when they showed
,f, was moi more than 2 inches above
water. 1t is supposed that she must
nave gone down with her living freight.
The fate of the other boats is doubtful,
Is nothing has been heard of their oc-
upants since.

HOW DEAN CURED THEM.

Many congregation made it part
of their religion to twist their necks
out of joint to witness the entrance OF
every yerson who passed up the aisle
of the church.
Being worried one afternoon by this
turning practice in his congregation,
Mr.. Dean stopped in his sermon, and
said:
"NOw you listen to me, and I'll tell
you who the people are as each one of
them comes in."
He then went on with his discourse
until a gentleman entered when he
bawled out, like an usher:
"Deacon A., who keeps a shop
over the way"
He then went on with his sermon,
when presently another man passed
into the aisle, and he gave his name,
residence and occupation; so he con-
tinued for some time.
AT length some one opened the door
who was unknown to Mr.. Dean, hen
he cried out:
GA little, old man, with drab coat
and an old white hat; don't know him
look for yourselves"
The congregation was cured.

A Princely Offering to Bishop
Purcell,

The financial distress Of Archbishop
Purcell has given rise to an incident
that hardly has its parallel in history,
and which illustrates the prayers of
christianity and civilization in the
nineteenth century. No sooner did
Mr.. Reuben Springer learn of the
Archbishop's straitened circumstances
than he proffered him his check for
$4,000 to relieve them. This free will
offering from q Protestant to one of
the most distinguished prelates OF the
Catholic Church ia America is so un-
usual in every respect that is deserves
special mention. Mr.. Springer knew
only the man and the distinguished
citizen when he came to his aid in the
hour eff need and afliiction, forgetting
race, creed, prejudice and all else. A
higher religion could not be proclaim
ed in thousand sermons from the
most eloquent divines of every sect
