THACKERAY AND THE NEGRO.

They (the negroes) interest me very much especially the little pickaninnies with their queer faces and ways which are just exactly half way between the absurd and the pretty, and so create in my mind strange feeling between pleasure and pity. Yesterday where dined I felt my elbow pinched by a very little hand and looking down saw such little elfn bit of a brat with such queer smile and grim mace holding me up a silver basket with bread.-And the day before at dinner there was ore little negro boy with a great peacock's feather fan whisking the flies aways, whilst anoth- CT niggerkin yet smaller was deputed to do nothing but watch the process of the dinner, which he did standing back against Sideboard and making endless faces at the child with the fan
 The goodness of the masters to these children is very pleasant to witness. l wish some of our cOuntrymen could see it.-From the Thackeray Letters now being published in The Century

LONG HILL.

FER AND FIREMAN WERE THROWN
 FROM CAB.
 At 8 a. m., Monday morning, the south bound freight, when a short dis tance south of Long Hill station, met with mishap that came very nearly losing the engineer and fireman their lives. The train was going at a fair rate when suddenly the forward truck of the locomotive collapsed, derailing the engine and throwing the engineer and fireman out of the cab.
