Ile left a coin szininous-deknesesat„ it, he called his will, and, upon opening his wife adls eldest son, a young man, found &flotillas out off with legacies of 1500 each. He gays 'reason for so doing that the young man had once at tempted to murder him, aided and abetted by the wife ahil mother. The occasion to which the testator referred In making this dreadful death-bed accusation is explained RN follows: One day, some years ago, this mini, who was of brutal disposition and ad dicted to drinking, was beating his wife so seveirely that she considered her life endan gered, and called upon her eon (the young man referred to) to protect her. Ile did this in an effectual manner by taking up a poker, striking his father across the head, and fal ling him to the floor The father cherished the recollection of this act to his dying day, and sought to revenge himself, as above, by depriving the offending parties of their law ful inheritance, though the will will tint stand under the etittu ten of the State of Loni.ana, and the dead man will be balked of his ven geance. It is due to the young man to say that he is of feeble intellect, his imbecility twin the consequence of the brutal treat ment of hie father, who struck him to the ground when a lad with such violence that an injury ensiled; which has affected his brain ever since. So retribution for the cruel blow of the father was visited in kind upon him by the son, who knew no lintjezthae to beat his parent . over the head with an Iron poker became of that limited Ipprociation of lie "proprieties" and " hurnanitiri" of life for which ho was indebted to the father's maltreatment.—N. 0. Delta. Remark%Ple Heroism. The Rev. Mr. Scudder, of India, in a 'la ce to the ChriWian Intelqgencer, gives the (Atoning instance of horn, Ailed forth by he Indian mutinies : " Let Americans never be ashamed that. Englishmen are their forefathers. " - England is a noble country. Her sons are heroes and her daughters are heroines. This rebel lion has brought out deeds that deserve to he associated with these valorous actions which we, with throbbing pulses, read in history. In ono place a lady and her hus ' band bed in their carriage. Ile stood up right. She took the reins. She lashed the horses through a band of mutineers, while ho, with cool aim, shot dead one who seisi,d the horses' heads, and another who climbed upon the carriage behind to cut him down. Oie they fled, till again they found them eels+ among foes, and a rope stretched a cri*s the road made further progress appear impossible. True to herself, she dashed the ,rses.MllApe_el_against the rep, and as they, bearing it down, stumbled, mho, by rein and whip, riisye them, while her hus band's weapons again freed them from those who succeeded in leaping upon them. He was'wourided, but both escaped with their lives. In another place, a young lady, the daughter of an officer, shot smell mutineers before they killed her.

We don't like that pretty well." I'll be up the winds In a bundle together, And tickle their ribs With an ostrich feather. Oh, crackey '—now ho goes it ! We did'nt think it lay in the gizzard of mortal man to do half as much. Really, we think such a desperate and dtuigerous individual ought to be caught, cast into a spider's web, and safely guarded by one flea, two mosquitoes, and a vigilant wood louse. There is no knowing what the chap MAY DO. _ _ An Irishinanvlriven to desperation, by the stringency of the money market, and the hijh price of provisions, procured a pistol and took to the road.

There are now loading with grain end flour at New York the large number of thirty ships, all for Europe, about half being for Liverpool and the remainder for Glasgow. They will avefage about 20,000 bushels for each ship. Such a wholesale exportation of these two great staple articles of agrieultunit. p roduce is unprecedented.

A Bad Story The Cincinnati Gazette retrace the follow ing incident, which occurred at Xeni• on the 4th instant: " Among the passengers in the trairrfrom Cleavefind eras a young Man of perhaps tvrenty.,and a lady Some few years his sen ior. The gentleman wai plainly clad, but the girl was dressed in the gittremelteight of fashion, and rouged beyond even brazen wantonness. It was frequently observed by the passengers, that the young nun appeari'd to btf.eaniestly remonstrating with the girl, and"seemed to be deeply 'Dieted. At Xenia, both left the cars, and it was apparent that the course of each lay in diflerent directions —the man to thin city, and tho girl to the West. As the cars were about starting, the young man kissed her a hasty good-bye, and both burst into Leers.
