Some years ago, whenever a colored
man had the toothache, string was tied
around the decaying grinder, and while
the dentists assistant held the cord the
dentist raised a heavy maui, as if to
strike the patient dead. Of course, the
African threw himself back to avoid the
blow, and with such force as to jerk out
the tooth. This sort of dentistry, it
should be said, was cheaper than the
present operation --[Courier.Jo Journal.

A tree that was three hundred feet in
length, ninety.six in circumference at the
base, and sound to the very heart, was
felled in Mariposa recently. Five men
were twenty-five days in doing the work.
After it had been completely severed by
augur holes it still stood unmoved, and
required blocks, pulleys and tackling to
bring its proud head to the earth.

On the morning of my arrival in Lon
don last month, as our train, scudding
along it's high trestle, was traversing the
first outlaying block of city buildings, |
observed another line of passenger cars at
the right OF us and considerably below
also coming in, while above it, on tracks
yet higher than ours, third train was
dashing out of the metropolis. For all |
know to the contrary, fourth string OF
coaches, one of the underground circular
railway, might very possibly at the same
moment have been driving through its
hidden tunnel deeper beneath us and so
have made the underlying course of this
| four-story structure. The railway tarvel,
at long distances and short, to and from
London, is necessarily enormous. In my
frequent visits to the great city stations
there seldom passed ten minutes that
one, two or more long trains, nearly al
ways well filled, were not arriving and
starting out. The ingenuity exercised in
concentrating SO many railroad lines into
the city without mutual interferences OF
confusion, and the rigid, unfaltering
working system necessary to the rapid
manipulation Of their vast travel, may be
understood by engineers and railway
men. But they cannot fail to excite the
wonder of every stranger who will stor
to give them thought. -[St. Louis Re

While in this city last week he wanted

The gentleman repaired to that par

that came along eastward bound. Now
it so happened that it was Vine-Street

when just as he got comfortably settled
the car stopped.
Looking out he observed that he had
circled Fountain Square and was just
where he started. Muttering q suppress

chased another car going down the north
side of the Esplanade. Much out of

himself into corner and began mop

the car startled him to a sense of his To-
cation. There he was going around the
square again, for he had unwillngly en-

out on the platform he shook his fist eX-

shouted,-

Twas not alarmed, but an unaccountable
anxiety crept over me. At length the
curtain parted, and a naked human leg
was protruded through its folds; the
foot came with dumb, dead-like sound
to the floor, resting there, it seemed to
me, at least half a minute before the
body to which it belonged was disclosed
to my view. Slowly, then, a pallid and
unearthly-looking figure emerged from
the couch, and stood with its stark Inca
ment clearly drawn against the dingy
curtains behind it. 1t appeared to be
balancing itself for moment, and then
began to move along from the bed. But
there was something horribly unnatural
in its motions. Its feet came to the floor
with dull. heavy sound, as If there was
no vitality in them. Its arms hung APP
parently paralyzed by its side, and the
only nerve set rigidly in the frame APP
peared about its brow. The eyes were
dilated and fixed with the expression OF
ghastly horror, and the petrifed lips
moved not, as the hideous moaning,
which came from the bottom of the
chest, escaped them.
1t began to move across the floor in
the direction of my bed, its knees at ev-
cry step being drawn up with sudden
jerk to the body, and its feet coming to
the ground as II they were moved by
some mechanical impulse, and were
