AN OLD YET GOOD STORY,

When Davy Crockett was in Washington he
was one day in hotel toastng his shins, when a
senator from Massachusetts, entered
Approaching the old frontiersman the latter
said: "Crocket, a large body of your constituents
are marching up the street; you ought to 90 out
and greet them.
Crockett hurriedly arose and went out upon
the hotel steps, when a drove of mules caught his
eye He quietly watched them until the last one
had passed. and then returned to his seat bv the
stove. The Massachusetts senator was still there.
and as the redoubtable Davy dropped into his
chair, asked:
WELL did you see your friends?n
ON, yes" was the response. "They are look
ing remarkably well, too"
Did you ascertain their destination?"
Certainly, sir"
and where are they going in such q solid
body?"
Crockett turned to the senator with a ouiet
calm expression, and replied:
"The blamed fools are all going down to Mas
sachusetts to teach school,
And then they gazed moment into each others
faces, and sadly walked up to exercise the bar
keeper while.

a SLIGHT MISTAKE.

a very laughable occurrence was witnessed at
the Union Depot last night. When the train from
the South stopped lady alighted, and, seeing a
gentleman standing by whom she supposed to be
her husband, she ran toward him, and, throwing
her arms about his neck, showered kisses upon
him. The gentleman made no objections; but
when she ceased her oscillations a gentleman
standing near by remarked: Well, Laura. haven't
you made mistaken" Laura turned toward him
in establishment, and, flying into his arms, buried
her blushing face on his shoulder, saying: Lord
bless me, Steve, L thought it was you, Why did
you not speak.-Terre Haute Ind Erpyess

A WONDERFUL RUSSIAN IDIOT,

An idiot who perhaps surpasses all rivals in
memory and in the capacity to make mathemat-
ical calculations in his head, was recently exam
ined before the students of the medico-surgical
academy Of st. Petersburg. He is twenty-seven
years old. In his youth he was noted for his
brilliant ability, but was addicted to the immod-
crate use of liquors and led dissipated life. He
was attacked by an acute disease. When he re-
covered he was found to have lost all his mental
faculties except memory and the power of mathe-
NAUTICAL calculation. Those increased proportion
ately as his understanding and power of logical
thinking vanished. Now he is living phono-
graph and calculating apparatus In the lecture
room Professor Merjevsky requested him to square
numbers containing five or six figures, to extract
the square root of Like ~ 4bers, and so on. Ali
the question we're W answered by the
patient IT ew ssr.4 No mathematician
present could 10 any. .'s- like it. Then the
proLe ESQ 5uested 5on. : le to read poetry aloud
for several minutes { the patient repeated it
as correctly as phonograph. The professor de-
clared to the audience that he was unable to ex-
plain this psychical phenomenon The memory
and calculating capacity of the patient are still
growing, while in other respects he is becominga
more hopeless idiot.

who had misconducted himself in Spain and
was smarting under the recollection of his own
! failures. TrebOnius had long before sounded
Antony on the desrableness of removing their
chief. Antony, though he remained himself true,
had unfortunately kept his friends counsel
Trebonius had been named by Caesar for future
Consulship, but distant reward was too little
for him Another and yet baser traitor was
Decimus Brutus whom Caesar valued and trusted
beyond all his officers whom he had selected as
guardian for Augustus and had noticed, as was
seen afterwards with special affection in his will
The services of these men were invaluable to the
cOnspirat0rs on account of their influence with
the army. Decimus Brutus, like Iabenius, had
enriched himself in Caesars campaigns, and had
amassed near half mill ion of English money
1t may have been easy to persuade him and
TrebOnius that a grateful Republic would con-
slider no recompense too large to men who would
sacrifice their commander to their country. To
Cesar they could be no more than satellites the
first prizes of the Empire would be offered to the
choice of the saviors of the Constitution.
So composed was the memorable band, to whom
was to fall the bad distinction of completing the
ruin of the senatorial rule. Caesar would have
spared something OF 1t, enough, perhaps, to nave
thrown up shoots again as soon as he had himself
passed away in the common course of nature.
By combining in focus the most hateful charac-
teristics of the order, by revolving the moral in
stincts of mankind by ingratitude and treachery,
they stripped their cause by their own hands of
the false glamor which they hoped to throw over
it. The profigacy and avarice, the cynical dis
regard Of obligation, which had marked the
Senates supremacy for a century, had exhibited
abundantly their unitness for the high functions
which had descended to them; but custom and
natural tenderness for form of government, the
past history of which had been so glorious might
have continued still to shield them from the
penalty of their iniquities The murder of Caesar
filled the measure Of their crimes and gave the
last and necessary impulse to the closing act of
the revolution.

ONE GOLDEN TRESS,

One golden tress-
A dead caress-
That oft my cheeks have known
In other days,
When fortune rays
More brightly DER me shone .
Twas hers-'tis mine.
Loves light divine
Still fingers on each thread,
And comfort brings
While mem'ry filings
Her mantle DER the dead.
Twas hers; but now
IT'S mine. The vow,
of which it is a token,
Was sacred kept
While troubles slept
When they awoBe, twas broken.
But yet, my heart,
Though forced to part
With all those fond caresscs
That once she gave,
Remains the slave
Of one of her bright tresses.
And though tits past
Hopes dream at last
And JOY from me hath parted,
cannot chide
My promised bride
VINO left me broken-hearted.
This golden tress-
A dead caress
cherish even yet.
Though faithless she,
IT'S loves decree
Nv heart may not forget.

Servilia the friend and scandal said the mistress
! OF Cesar That he was CAESARS son was not too
absurd for the credulity of Roman drawing

deeply attached to his mother and although,
under the influence of his Uncle Cato. he had
taken the Senate side in the war he had ac-
cepted afterwards not pardon only from Caesar,
but tavOrs OF many kinds, for which he had pro-
fessed and probably felt some real gratitude He
had married Catos daughter Portia and on Catos
death had published eulogy upon him. Caesar
left him free to think and write what he pleased.
He had made him prsetor; he had nominated
him to the governorship of Macedonia. Brutus
was perhaps the only member Of the senatorial
party in whom Cesar felt genuine confidence

Caius Cassius, his brother-in-law, was EMPLOYED

by Cesar. He knew Brutus, he knew where
and how to move him. He reminded him of
the great traditions of his name. 4 Brutus had
delivered Rome from the Tarquins The blood
OF Brutus was cOnsecrated to liberty. This
too, was mockery. Brutus, who expelled the
Tarquins, put his sons to death and died child

them; but an imaginary genealogy suited well

JAMAICA.

The subj c. of pr@ lial larceny was engag'
ing much attention. Some public meetings
had been held, and the general opinion
seemed to be that the evil had largely
increased of late years. The stealing OF
growing crops is so utterly ruinous to the
industry of any place where it prevails
that We are not surprised to find the
Jamaica authorities taking strong measures
to check it, and We read that some of the
culprits have been whipped in public.
There is much difference of opinion among
the. principal men of Jamaica about the
propriety of this course, and the incident
has given rise to much discussion. Cats
Noes Letter contains the following remarks
on che subject.
ssThere is an impression abroad that Mr..
Justice Baird has exceeded his power in
ordering persons convicted of ~plundering
provision fields to be whipped in the
public market place. We have the highest

convicted to be publicly whipped in any

We trust this will put the public MUD at
rest respecting the LEGALITY" of these
~whippings. Some say it is wrong to
degrade people by whipping them. What
degradation is lower than that of a thief,
and why should there be such a desire to
save a mans skin and to let loose
property to be preyed upon 81
