Portraits Upon window Panes.

We have heretofore published an ac-
count of a portrait supposed to have been
photographed by lighting on a pane of
glass In the window Of an old farmhouse
in this county. Another instance of the
same curious phenomenon has been found
in the window of the Mansion House on
the "Mount Eagle" farm, more generally
known as the "Gentry place" The por-
traits of four persons are plainly dis
cernable-two men, a woman and a
child.
The faces are not all on one pane, that of
one of the men and the woman being on
adjoining glasses, the face of the other
man on another, and that Of the child on
one of the lower panes, and the theory is
that the party were all looking through
the window during a thunder storm,
when a sudden fash of lightning, by
some mysterious process, instantaneOusly
fixed their features on the glass. The
existence of the portraitures is of COM
paratively recent discovery, and has at
tracted many VISITORS Charlottesville

The Dead Chita and the Bird.
jacksonville (Fla,) Breeze

A little child in Jacksonville was in
the habit of playing upon the piazza of
her fathers house. Near by mocking-
bird had it's nest in the orange trees and
sang most beautifully, and the little
child would throw crumbs to the bird
daily. Ere long the child was taken
sick and the bird was forgotten in the
anxiety for the sick one, and. notwith-
standing all was done that could be done,
the child died. While the child's body
was lying in the coffin the bird was seen
to perch upon the slat of tkR window
blind, pour forth one of its most thrill
ing songs and then fit away. Some
hours after this the body of the little
bird was found dead upon the floor of
the piazza and was placed upon the cof-
Fl n Of its little friend, and inferred with
it in the same grave.

herbs, went out to pick someb by the light
of the moon. They are said to have the
most virtue at that time.
My bandages did the captain good, for
in about ten minutes he sighed, and five
minutes afterward he opened his eyes,
but without seeing anything yet. If

AMeXlCan LOchinVar.

About ten years ago Chester County,
Pennsylvania, farmer named Jackson
migrated to Texas, locating near the
village of Iberia, in Maveric County, on
the Mexican border. At that time he
had daughter, Anna, who was CHR
rupy little creature Of nine. Jackson
prospered and soon erected fine resi-
dence on the Rio Grande, along which
lay his stock-farm. A year or so ago he
gave grand ball in honor of Miss Jack
sons eighteenth birthday, which event
drew as his guests number of army of.
ficers and a few Mexicans of respecta-
bility. On the evening Of the ball Col.
Jean Baptiste San Miguel, then military
commander of the eastern district of
Chihuahua, was present, and his devo-
ton to his hosts daughter excited re-
mark.
A few weeks later Col. San Miguel had
the modification of hearing his suit for
Miss Jackson's hand rejected. Just one
month after the ball, as Miss Jackson
was sitting alone ON the vine-trellised
porch of her fathers house, two figures
stepped in from the dusk of the garden,
and before the young woman could give
expression of alarm she found her head
wrapped round and round in a shawl,
her feet and hands pinioned, and her
form lifted upon strong mans should
ers. Miss Jackson very naturally faint
ed. When she had recovered she found
herself strapped to horse and support
ed in an upright position by man who
sat in his saddle facing backward. An
other man, also on horseback, led the an
imal with the double burden.
Her abductors kept on the march until
daylight, when they put up at an inn,
where she was kept close prisoner until
the second evening. The journeying
was continued in this way until the
mountains, which she was told were four
hundred miles from her home, were
reached. Colonel San Miguel had joined
the kidnapers. and Miss Jackson was
kept prisoner in the mountains for sew
eral days. At last escaping, she was
guided by pitying Indian to the Gulf
of Mexico, where one day she signaled
and boarded the brig Lydia, bound for
Boston. Friends took her in hand when
she arrived in that city and sent her
home, which she reached one day last
week,

Moung Edwin, Burmese, who has
been educated in this country with the
view of sending him as Baptist mission
ary to Burmah, lectured last week in Bal
timore. Speaking of the deplorable con-
dition of women in the East, owing main
ly to peculiar religious teachings, he said:
"Girls in China are believed to have no
souls, and to kill them is not murder, and
therefore not to be punished. Where
parents are too poor to support the girl
children they are disposed of in the fol
lowing way: At regular inter-
walls an appointed officer goes
through village and collects from poor
parents all the girl children they can not
care for, when they are about eight days
old. He has two large baskets attached
to the ends of a bamboo pole and slung
over his shoulder. Six infants are placed
in each basket, and he carries them to
some neighboring village and exposes
them for sale. Mothers who desire to
raise wives for their sons buy such as
they may select. The others are taken
to the Government Asylum, of which
there are many all through the country.
If there is room there they are taken in,
if not they are drowned"
