ALBERT W. LUXT. HIS PARENTAGE, EAKLT IJFE Ac., AC. Albert W. Lunt, abas William W. Lunt, was born in Hampden, Me., of respectable parents, who endeavored to train him up for usefulness in afterlife, but being of a restless nature, be soon be came tired of parental restraint, and seiz ing a favorable opportunity he ran off with a circus company, which was so journing in his native town. He contin ued with the company for several years. Subsequenlly he was convicted for horse stealing and sentenced to the Penitentiary. Having served his term, he was re leased and soon after joined the regiment in which he served up to the time of committing the crime which caused his death. He was nearly twenty-two years of age,, and of remarkable physique, being over six feet in height arid possessing a frame proportionably large and muscular. Thus ended the execution, the second of the kind, which has taken place during the “war, and may it be the last. May this prove a warning to us all. It cer tainly is easier to be goad soldiers, and be respected by our superiors, than to be disobedient and be punished. They who transgress the laws of their country must suffer the punishment due their transgres sions, The Scripture truly saith—“ The uxiy of t l te transgressor is hard. FROM FREDERICKSBURG. An old broker, who has operated in Philadelphia, New York, and Boston for thirty or forty years past, is writing an interesting set of u R«»llections" for the colnmijs of the Commercial BuHetuu, from which |wc extract the following sketch ol the lasi money transaction of the old Bank of the United States: The glory of the great regulator had all departed—no crowds of men nor millions of money resounded in the marble palace, which had been erected at a cost of a half million of dollars—only an occasional footstep rang with startingly load rever berations in tbe high vaulted bankingrooms, and all the offices around it were silent and deserted as the grave—Thompson, the transfer blerk, kept a shadow of the old high estate in a distant part of the building, but in the immediate business hall. Mr. Patterson, alone with the old grey headed porter, kept watch and ward, each day playing the farce, that the Bank still lived, op the identical spot where he had paid out billions and trillions of money. One day a stranger enters, evidently from the West—far West. Fhr a moment he is struck by the tomb like aspect ahd deathly silence of the place, but discovering some one at the- distant counter, advances. The awakened echoes of his own steps gave the only sign of life. Rust.ing a large pile of notes, be de manded: Now.” J. L. KINSEL then.” “ There is no cashier.” “ What!” and hesitating a moment, be burst into a loud sharp cry of “ There's no cashier v ' Select Igistrtlang. CE OF TEE OLD BETTED STATES BAEZ. ‘•Give me the money for these.” “ Money - I‘U register them for yon." “ Register, be hanged. Fay . them! “We can’t” “Can't, eh ? Where’s the president?” “ There is no president” “ Who are you ?” “ I’m the teller.” “Well, (ell me where the cashier is From the vaulted ceiling back in distinct words “ There's no cash here.” The stranger started, looked up to, whence the reply came, started at the tel ler, and gathering up his bills departed without another word. Mr. Patterson also started at the Delphic oracle, and bis mind having for some time been uneasy under his false position and the sad memo ries it brought, determined to the bank ing hall whose fame was dead, and post notes fled, and all bat him departed.” So little an incident decided him, and he left the scene of his former useful and brilliant career forever. The remains of the Bank were, removed some back rooms in No. 76 Walnut street, and the building sold, after a time to the Federal Government, who now occupy it as a custom house. Upon the body of the dead monster there sat for many years after »n inquest of ghouls, rich men of high standing and character, who did not hesitate, tb draw $3,500 a year for each other out of a little left to so many thou sand-widows, orphans, and broken down merchants; and continued to feast upon the crushed orapge till every drop of juice was sacked dry, when they too resigned; and the once glorious Bank of the United States became like the paseless fabric of a dream. A Haiti Wohah. —ls she not the very sparkle and sunshine of life? A woman who is happy because she can 1 help it—whose smiles even the coldest sprinkle of misfortune cannot dampen.. Men make a terrible mistake when they marry tor beauty, for talents, or style. The sweetest wives are those who possess the magic secret of being contented under any circumstances. Rich or poor, high or low, it makes no difference; the bright Little fountain of joy bubbles up just as musically in their hearts. Do they live in a log cabin, the fire that leaps up on its humble hearth becomdk brighter than the gilded chandeliers in an Ailadin palace.

A SftXHEREL- A BIT or ADVICE FOB BOVS. When I was about six j«up old, one morning. going to school, a ground squir rel nm into its bole bdfere a*. Ithought, now I would bare fine fun. As there was a stream of water jam at band, I thought I would pour water iota tbe bale till it would be full and wbea tbe Hide fellow put op bis bead, I eras going to kill Ida. I got a trough from behind a sugar maple, and was soon pouring tbe water in oo the poor squirrel. I could hear it teruggiing to get up, and said, “ Oh, my little fel- soon have you now.” Just them, 1 heard a voice behind me. “ Well, my boy, what have you got in there?” I turned and saw a good old man, with white lodes, who had seen sixty winters. Why,” said I, “ I have a ground squir rel in here, and am going to drown it out" “When 1 was a little boy,” said be, ‘■more than fifty years ago, 1 waa engaged one day just as you are, drowning a squir rel ; and an .old man like me came along, and said to me, are a Bttle boy ; now if yuu were down in a narrow hole like that, and I should come along and poor'water down on you to drown yon, would you think I was doing as Td be done by? God made the little squirrel, and life is as sweet to it, as it is to you; and why would you ' torture to death an innocent little creature that God has made?’” Said he, “ I have never for gotten that, and never shell; I have never killed any harmless creature lor fun since; and now my dear boy, I want you to re>- member this while you live, and when tempted to kill another pour little inno cent animal or bird think of this; and mind, God don't allow us to kill his pret ty little creatures for fun.” More than fifty years have pasted since, and I never forgot what the good man said, nor have I killed the least animal for fun since. Now, yon see, it is ninety years since this advice was given, and it has not lost its influence yet. A Hakd Ose. —The agents of |wo rival safe manufacturers were recently presenting the claims of their respective articles. One was Yankee, the other wasn't. He that wasn't told his story. — A game cock had been shut up in one of his safes, and then it was exposed three days to the most intense heat When the dour opened, the cock stalked out, dapped bis wings and crowed, as if nothing had lt was now the Yankee’s turn. A cock had also been shat np in one of his safes, with a pound of fresh batter, and the safe was submitted to the trial of a tremendous heat for more than a week. The legs of (he safe ware melted off, and the door itself was so far fused as to re quire the use of a cold chisel to get it open. When it was opened, the cock was found frozen dead, and the batter so that a man who knocked off a piece of it with a hammer had his eye put oat by a frozen butter splint- A Fcxxt Cask.—An ampsiqg' case was 1 beard before U. & Commissioner Hpjne, at Chicago, on Saturday, growing out of a similarity of names, Brown vs. Brown. The pontiff, one James Brown complained of the 'defend ant, another James Brown, that he had taken a letter out of the post office, which was the property of the plaintiff, James Brown, mid no way belonged to the de fendant, James Brown.
