This all the way to Murphy's another old mining town, where we receive the cheering intelligence that the real trouble of the route is about to be gin. We change from the coach to a mountain wagon—so called—a street hack with three seats and nosprings. There is no use for any, they would not last, and• the passengers cannot keep their seats half the time any how. It's a - capital thinglor a tor pid liver. In this we make the re maining fourteen miles of up-hill to the Grove. Despite the jolting I*- for the change. We leave,the dust behind; there is not soil enough on the route to create it. We-run be side clear, cold'-'streams. We are in a region of cold airs. We are shaded by rocky cliffs; or on- thelevels by till timber, and the wild, ever vary ing beauty of gorge pr wooded flat make me forget fatigue. Itis even ing too,• all the way , up hilk necessi tating slow driving,and giving time in the claims'-to look about. The vegetation begins to ch a nge. rapidly. ea . s an • • rro ; sa an ' we are in a magnificent forest of bill trees without underbrush.' Every mile the trees increase in size; the smallest we see for hours are three or four feet in thickness, and nature seems to Usher us in their fittingpor tals to the wonders that are to come. The big f lees do not stand alone in grandeur s I had suppased, but for twenty miles around vegetation shades off gradually in forests of im mense pines. At last we reach the borders of "The Grove" par excellence, while there is still light enough to appre ciate its glories. There they stand, the vegetable wonders of the world ; in the gathering twilight. some in clusters, joining their branches like the columns of great gothic arches, reaching away to prop the Orman t, or now and then one isolated and stretching gaunt arms and opening boughs as if it would drink the clouds. The majority appear stumpy and truncated, too thick for their length; hut others stretch away, in long, graeeful columns of arborescent pro portions, height, thickness and bran ches all in such perfect correspond ence. that half the affect of their size is lost.' Indeed, they do not look at first sight nearly so largess they are; there is harmony with adjacent trees, and between different parts of the same tree, that the sense of size is lessened by that of elegant unifortni ty. But many of the trees of two or three hundred feet in height, have a decidedly stump appearance, looking like gigantic stubs rather than trees. At first view it seemed to me the tops must have been broken off. The branches add much to this illu sion from -the fact that they behd downward, starting, even from the body of the tree at an angle of twen ty degrees below the horizontal. This, r am told, is caused by the w eight of winter snows, continued annually through all the thousands of years of their growth. The small est of these adjacent• trees in an Ohio forest would create astonishment yet here they appeartriffing, as mere .striplings shading off and filling na tive's intervals between the mem moths and common underbrush. Striltgest of all, other things appear much dwarfed.

Here is the place for man to realize his littleness. In the evening had of these green arches, how naturally the mind reverts to thoughts of the vastAhe unchangea ble, the infinite. Heaven itself seems nearer in our thoughts ; riotous mirth is hushed ; solemn awe fills the soul, and in low-toned exclamations alone we briefly converse.- MCI But forty miles of staging over boulders and rocky up-grade, with dust enough in us to start a second Adam; incling our- party to think more of supper and of bed than of the biggest trees nature can produce. There comforts, Orstflass, are found at thif Big Tree Hotel, and for a summer resort one can spend weeks very pleasantly here. Dqylight, at 4:30 a. m. shone through the green arches with a new and wondrous beauty, and we awake to the con templation of a new world, another creation as it were, where nature seems to have proceeded on a special plan too cyclopean for the common world outside. Of course, the first object for to-day is the great fallen tree and stump, the latter now covered with a hand some summer-house, and fitted up as a pavilion for dancing. On the Fourth of July a cotillion party of thirty-two persons'danced upon the stump, and had. abundant room for the musicians and a dozen speota Siiver -AFD-• OM -AND ----:o:- ; ... , , PITIISB118(341, PA ALEX. cAnsom -tom' The tree; as it stood, wes three hundred and two feet in height, and ninety-six feet in circumference, three feet from the ground. But there is a little of the "brag" In this Measurement, as most of these trees spread greatly near the ground, and do- not assume a symmetrical, tree like shape before reaching the height of ten feet or, more. The stump has surfiwoot twenty-five feet in diem eter,-to which must be added three feet in a state of nature for the bark, which was eighteen Riches thick, giving a total diameter of twenty eight feet. Five men were twenty days in felling it--a great piece , of vandalism nay . of Mcrilege. in my humble.. oLinien. But, after .due eonsideinflim. the proprietors e01)- eluded that"the ends, df science—par ticularly : the. science pecuniary transfer—would bonier° Ibily emir ed by semlinjr.the barkitid seetlens Of the-tree tatAhe Eastern Meta and to Europe taX >lnspectiorWatill It wap no till this. .was,. one that,the public ftperally< were.

The work was done with ion g au gurs, boring it -6ff little by, little; whea,entirety severed, such was the perfect plum of trunk and branches; that, to:thenagetementofspectatora. the tree merelylettled down and still stood, as if refusing, conclouWpf its majestx,. to bow to human endeavors. Vast wedges were then inserted on the northern side and driven little by little, tilt heaved beyond the line of gravity, the mighty growth came crashing to the ground. It would seem as If nature must have yielded an audible groan itt this desecration. A bowling alley was constructed upon the upper portion of the trunk, but not provjog remunerative, has been removed. The "but cut" of the / tree lies as it fell, the top reached by means of a ladder; then a large por tion- is gone, sawn out in foot sections Rind transported Eastward. The "Father of the Forest," largest of all the trees, is also prostrate and slightly buried in the ground, having evi dently fallen many years before the grove was discovered (1852.) Its circumference at the toase Is 110 feet ; thence it is 200 feet to the first branch, the tree hollow all that distance, and through this tube I can easily walk erect. Unlike the other, it was evi dently much decayed and was broketi by its fall besides breaking down several smaller trees with it.— By the stumps of thew it is known to have been at least 420 feet in heigth, and may have been consid erably more. Near its Base is a never-failing spring of clear, cold water. 'The mother of the Forest,'so named from two round protuberances on one side, is the largest tree now stand ing. The bark has been removed to the bight of 116 feet, but without it the tree is &I feet in circumference at the base. Twenty feet from the base it measures round 69 feet, and thus on, decreasing with elegant regularity to the height of 321 feet, making this the most symmetrical of all the tar get' trees. And for this reason its vastness is seldom appreciated at first view. In such fine harmony, the overpowering sense of immensi ty is_ost. It is not until one has rounded the „tree many times and viewed it from different points that the eyecomprehend.sall itsgrandeur. The_ bark was from ten to twenty four inches thick, bPiging outwardly in a succession of elli ps oids around the trunk. Ten feet from the basethis tree would "square" twenty feet, to use a sawyer s phrase; and taking this with a length of three hundred gradunt deetimr,---er practical lumberman of our party (stimates that it must contain at least five hundred and twenty thousand feet of sound inch lumber! This seems utterly incredible, but the rules of mensuration shokv it beyond a doubt. Next in order, as in interest, is (or are) the "Husband and Wife," a noble pair of saplings, each sixty feet around the base and two hundred and fifty in hight,-growing near and bending lovingly toward each other till their upper branches are com pletely mingled in a dense wooden and leafy mass—a tall, lithe, well proportioned, graceful pair, sup porting a heavy progency of branch and leaf sufficient to shade an assem blage of five thousand persons. Near by is the "Burnt Tree." pros trate and hollow, into which one ean ride on horseback for sixty feet. Across the roots it measures thirty nine feet, and from all indications its height must have been over three hundred feet,. The"Harseback Ride" is also hollow its entire length; in the narrowest part the interior is twelve feet wide and can be travers ed from end to end. "Uncle Tom's Cabin" is a hotioiv stump in which twenty-five persons can be comforta bly seated, while near by the "Three Sisters" stand side by side in graceful amplitude, each twenty feet thick and two hundred feet high; of exact proportion and equi-distant from base to crown. t . The trees are tnammoth redwoods, assigned by ' botanists to a class knoun as Sequoia. gigantea. In an elaborate description, written soon after dicovery, a ,patriotic English scientist christened them the Wel lingtonia gigantea. This roused the jealous ire of a udifornia saran, who, in a ludicrous spasm of national pride gave them the specific title of Wash ingtonia gigantett. But by common consent they are now known by the name first mentioned. Like all other timber of the Tazodium ge nus, they are but little subject to de ' eay, and the mast impaired of the fallen trunks has undoubtedly been prostrate for many hundred years. In this dry air, at an eleva tion of three thousand feet above the sea level, with drought in summer, and snow in winter, and only the light rains of spring and autumn, decay requires long periods, com pared to which a human life seems practically naught. We have gazed long upon these botanic marvela and still new beauties appear at each new study; but it is when we come to es timate their age that amazement reaches its climax, and Ave can truly compare the duration of these mon strous trunks with man's brief period of growth and decay. Tne trees, of this genus require twenty years' to increase one inch in diameter, the bark twice as long to gain the thick ness of a knife blade; the timber, In a,drying air, will not perceptibly de cay within the lifetime of man. By these and many other signs, more than all, by the annular rings, it 13 demonstrated that the largest of the *Sequoias must be three thousand years old. Think of it; outlasting ninety average generations of men. And the fallen ones are probably one thousand years older. When our forefathers landed on Plymouth Rock the largest of these had long attained its growth, and wag - hardening into solid maturity. For how many cen turies did the Indian contend with grizzly bear and mountain lion through these shades before the pale face came to gaze with the enlight ened wonder of a superior race? Could these whispering boughs be fore my chamber window, now sighing in the evening breeze of the Sierras, but drop intelligible words, what of primeval history might .they not tell—of combats of savage beasts or equally savage men ? When Magna Charta was signed, these giants were already of size suf ficient to haveastontshed all the Bar ons at Runeymede, familiar as they doubtless Were with the great oaks of Boseobel and Epping Forest. Wh en Rome yielded to the ( 30th , the "I '- ther of the Forest, , S grown old and decrepid, was tottering to his' fall. When Rome was formded the "Burnt* Tree" was a vigorous sapling rearing his head two hundred feet upon ' a body ten feet in diameter. and when the Savior bowed his bead on Calva ry, we may well befiever that here a mighty forest groaned and shuddered in the throbs of universal nature.

When Homer sang of Tniy, this grove, was already a Wonder, and when Horace delights himself In the Sabine Woods, here were trunks to put to shame the large nit oaks et the Appeninel.

A FRIGHTFUL DEATH. A Lion Tamer Torn to Pieces by Fire Lion,—.Horrible and Sickening Death—A .Panic-Stricken Crowd Looking on. The EtOlton (England) Evoking News says: " A season of farewell performances were being given prior to the removal of the menagerie to Bury, and an extra performance Was announced and took place at 10:30 o'clock. Attached to the show was a man named Thomas Maccarte, whose professional appellation was " Mas sarti, tho Lion-Tamer;" and he, at this extra performance, entered the lions' den for the last time. Maccar tie was a youuk man not more than 34 years old, but ho had been associa ted with traveling exhibitions of this kind from a very early period. He had previously lost an arm when per forming with Messrs. Bell & Myers' Circus At Liverpool. He had Ftrevi ously been trained by the Messrs. Beatty as a lion-tamer, and having Joined them for a short time, he MIS engaged by the late Mr. Slanders to succeed Macomo. tie was a very bold and adventurous man, and had been frequently cautioned respecting his rashness. The unfortunate man commenced his performances on Wednesday evening, when he was hardlin a proper condition to do so; andhaving exhibited the gorrilla and the serpents he entered the lions' den. At this time it is calculated 500 or 600 persons were present, and the five lions Were put through their performances with the usual success and applause. On all general occa sions heated bars of iron and iron scrapers are in readines, but on this tetai,aveniug, the- matter had neglected. THE FIVE LIONS - - were all powerful animals, and the unfortunate man on entering the cage noticed that a black-maned Af rican lion, which had only so recent ly I s Monday last bitten his hand, appeared very restive. He conse quently fixed his eyes on It; and this, in some degree, diverted his atten tion from-at Asiatic lion known by the name orTymnt, against whom he had been cautioned only that morning to keep carefully to his in structions. It is necessary here to note that when performing lions are tamed there is a line drawn, or wit is known as "the office," in technical phraseology, by which the beasts are taught to regard that line as a limit beyond which the performer must not pass, knowing, if he does so, the consequences to he expected are most dangerous. The presumption is that this line was overstepped, anti Mac carte, who wlas attired as a Roman gladiator, was returning his falehion to its sheath, Slipping, he fell to the floor of the den. Tyrant fastened on him, seizing him by the haunches, and then the African lion fastened on to his armless shoulder. Blaccarte immediately called upon the keepers for help, anti meanwhile to fire. He then drew the short Roman blade which formed apart of his costume, and commenced fighting desperately with the lion Tyrant, thrusting the sword into his face, mouth and eyes. The crowd, PANIe-STRICKEN. crowded around and effectually pre vented Abe approach of the men who were used to the habits of the ani mals. The shouts of the audience, the desperate and manful struggle of the fated man, and the smell of the blood that was streaming from Mac carte, incited the other animals and their savage instinct was awakened. A third lion—an Ahykiinian one— seized him by the rihsf , -.and then a five year old lion—an espOclal favor ite of the lion-tamer--caught him by the heat, literally scalping him,,the flesh hanging down his neck. The treacherous favorite had no sooner accomplished this work than he re turned quietly to his corner. THE DEADLY STRUGGLE progressed. and Mr. Birchall, who had from the first been most active, placed iron scrapers In the fire to heat them. Pistols and guns were dis charged, but they, unfortunately, were only loadad with blank cartrid ges, and the blazing of gunpowder failed to drive the animals from their quary. Meanwhile, the irons were heated, an iron shutter toseparate the animals in the cage when an oppor tunity offered was in readineiks, and Mr. Birchall and an assistant succeed ,ed in beating off the animals, the fifth having in the meantime scented and tasted the blood ivhich streamed out of the carriage, added his fangi to those which had already played such havoc with the human form pros trate before them. The sliding-door was pushed in; three of the animals being driven away with hot irons were separated,and then the lion that had seized Maccarte by the shoulder was driven In a corner. The shutter was partially opened to drive- him among the others, when a fourth in furiated beast seized him just above the boot and dragged him In again among them. Then THE FRIGHTFUL WORK went on again for a few sickening and horrifying tnoments. Hot irons were now available, and the brutes being driven o ff , the poor and almost pulseless piece of humanity was drawn out from the place it was fated he never more should enter. Ha re tained sufficient sensibility to speak to his Warmearted colleague , a few words, praying them not to take him away to receive medical aid, as ho knew that he was a dead man. His anxious friends carried him tenderly to the Infirmary, where, after a few moments; he breathed his last, after muttering a few incoherent senten ces. • As the shattered frame was Established 1818 borne past Mrs. Blenders, he faintly waved his , hand and gave an expr*s -sive look which conveyed the wont; .that he was past all hope, of aid. Many of the shots fired entered the bodies of the animals, and they re ceived great injuries before they were driven off their prey. The lion Tyrant is three and a half years old, and had been brought up from a whelp by Mrs. Menders. Tho ani mal having been a favorite. it was during the early part of Its training allowed to run about that portion of the caravan used as a habitation, and it freely gamboledVith its mistress. The sire of this animal was the_ one that nearly worried Maeeomo some time ago, The only arm the deceas ed had was streaked ,with deep from the shoulder to the ra ah ncr, the scalp was torn right back, and. from the hips to the knees, wftere. he was seized from behind, muscles are completely', torn out, There are -PIECES OF FLFZII gone from the ribs, and the bones of the which are thestrongest in the hattlan" franie,'-have had pieces - bitten clean out: At the -inquest on Thursday, 'Mrs. Mae:carte said she had not, • seen her husband since 2 o'clock on Wednesday. He,Was not underthe'influeuee of liquor when he left her,'He was alwa3rft afraid of the lion which first attacked him, and he had expressed a fear of it on Monday. His salary. with perqui sites, was about £4 per week. The Rev. Enoch Franks said he saw the deceased go into the den. His opin ion was that the deceased had taken sufficient drink to make him fool hardy, but he did not think that any one could call him drunk. The Cor oner mid there was not in his opin ion anything in the evidence respect ing the drunkenness of the man that affected the ease. It appeared that when he was down hedefended him self in a manner that showed he re alized his position. The performance being an extra one the heated Irons were not ready, and hence hedid not think there was any blame to be at= tachecl to anybody. In the course of his employment Maccarte met his death, and, however they might rep rebate his calling, they must think also that it was an institution of the town, and which, as the law stood, could not be stopped. Until the peo ple of Bolton became more civilized and discountenanced these sights, so long would managers fill their places with such spectacles. The jury re turned a verdict of death by misad venture, and added : • , -The jury feet it to be their bounden duty to express their entire disapprobation of the reckless custom of so-tmlled lion-tam era performing in dens where fero cious animals are , caged." Kentucky Jokes. It was during the presidential cam paign. which resulted in the election of Buchanan, that the writer of the, appended sketch, in company with three other politicians, rode from Paducah to Boston, Ky., in a hack. They were bound for one of the old fashioned barbecu es , and he tells what happened on the way thus: Thejoking Judge M. was 'one of the party, and the bottles that peeped out from the basket under the seat seemed to improve the sparkle of his wit, - the flavor of his jokes, and the music of his laugh, until the happy contagion even reached the driver. Our fun was at its highest when, turning a curve in the road, we saw, down its hot dusty stretch. a solitary ex cart, with its owner perched upon what proved to be bags of corn. As a kind of advance guard, a great, ugly, brindle dog came trotting along in advance, and attracted by our noise, , he threw hlinself in an atti tude of defiance, determined to dis pute our advance. With his savage growl red eyes and erect bristles, he indeed presented a forynidable ap pearance. Mr. M. could not let such an opportunity for a practical joke pass. Said he : "I'll bet the drinks for the day that I can run that dog off the road. "Done," said we. Stopping our hack, he got ont, and threw the skirts of his "swilow-tail ed" coat over his shoulders, stuck his old slouch hat on the hack of his head, and going down on "all fours,". he scampered-toward the dog with the most frightful yells, reminding one of the fable of the ass in the lion's skin. This was too much for the dog, and, hoWling with fright, he took to the brush. The oxen also saw the fearful monster coming down the road, and with one wild bellow they took to the brush, with their tails standing straight out behind. Away they went, with wheels bouncing in the air, bags of corn bursting open, and spilling their contents in a con tinuous drill. "Whoa, Blaze! Whoa, Ball! 0, Lordy ! what shall I do?" came from the frightened man on the cart, as he• was bounding from side to side, now grabbing a cart pole, then catch ing at a bag, of corn as it went ; over the side. This kind of performance couldn't last long without a change for better or worse, as the oxen went tearing down the steep bank of a little creek and overturned everything in the - water, about waist deep. One ox, getting loose, went up the oppasite hank and soon disappeared, while the other cowered down, piteously bel lowing as we came up to the scene of disaster. There stood the poor man in water to his waist, his wagon overturned, and half his corn soaking in the Water, while the other half was scattered in the woods. He looked scared and pitiful, and said : 'O, Lordy, Stranger, don't never do that any more. I'm ruined VI It .was a splendid succem, that joke, and there stood the Judge hold ing on to a ipling and' laughing till the tears ran down his cheeks. We took up a subseription for the poor fellow. The Judge headed the list with an amount nearly,coverinv the damages, and we added?to it' un til we left the man in thank fulnmi that he had sold his corn so well. At the barbecue. the Judge bet all his money on a little horse race, and last. and from that, and the effects of his drinks at our expense, we had to carry him to our hack on a barn door. On his way home he insisted upon standing on his head. Which WAS the ruined 'man ?

Last=Sunday, saya the N. log Post, the prevailing' -theme its this city was the death of James Fisk. jr. For several 'suet:N*l'l;e days, In deed, the public journals were full of theta concirning the tragedy. and of discussions of it .,; On-Tuesday night Henry W.Hallicic died in Louisville. A rapid summary of his life appear ed in most of thejournals on the next day. —One or two contained editorial paragraphs in honor of his memory. But no man talked about this man Balleck—the gossips on the streets and in the stages passed him and his career by as a barren, theme. He dead, 'indeed. On the Pacific et ; • alone his death excited that COMment which his character 4eserved. There the journals of all parties en! • his name, and the flags of San o gt s g dsco were displayed at half-mast In honor of hid memory. Some points in the - history of these two men were alike. Both were sons •- of poor Men. Bothltad to make their own way in the Woad: , . Both 'show ed particular ability In their different ' lines of action early-int Halleck Was 'in-Jove with,' k '• ledge.

An honest day's work in a legitimate employment wag too 'tame for him. About the showmen's tent there . were chances of turning a penny not, to be had elsewhere. Thus the char acter of each took a "set" when they were young, and neither evEr chahg ed much afterward. Halleck pursued knowledge, and gained it. He ac quired a reputation. and as the world goe s ,, in quiet times was a man of note. He becamea major general in the United States army; he wrote some books of permanent value; he retained the love and respets of Iris friends until the day of his death. The familiar name of "Old Brains," 6. by which he was known among 'his old comrades, indicates early enough the ground of his success. Fisk, on _ the other handy kept at trade, and was constantly on the watch for the "main chance." , From pitching shoW tents he mounted the peddler's cart; then he became partner in a regular mercantile house, and was graduated thence into the arena of financial ground-and-lofty tumbling known as %Vali Street. Shrewd, unscrupulous, keen-eyed and keen-scented, he con tinually climbed higher and higher and higher until, in very fact hewas "Prince of Erie." In his line he was successful; he became notorious; he gained wealth and had the things it ' could buy. He was called " Jim Fisk" by the bar-room loafers and the politicians of the City Hall, and his mune and the character of his ad mirers show what place he occupied in a cr)mnionity which, when the w ,, rst is said of it. endeavors to be outwardly decent. In the manner of their deaths there can be discerned niueh the same dif ference. Halleck died of disease of the bmiti, while Fisk was shot 'to death by 'a ball in his stomach. Both were great men in their dit ferent ways. Halleck was the schol ar, the soldier, the , patriot; Fisk was • ignorant, treacherous in business re lations and audaciously wicked. . The death of the one jars society to its very dregs, and excites comments in Foreign lands; the death of the other gives rise to a few brief items by tel egraph and takes its place with an cient history in two days tine. And yet, according to all the teachings of morality, religion, and what we call modern civilization, the memory of the one who is well-nigh forgotten should be immortal, whilelbe mem ory of the other should- have been dropped at once from the vocabulary ofall decent people. This social phenomenon is a strik ing comentary on the doctrine incul ratted by the ordinary Sunday school books. It is not the naughty city boy, who skates on Sunday, who was drowned this time. To be sure, the manner or Fisk's death made some difference made some difference in the commotion which it stirred up ; but outside of that he is talked about by those who utterly exhausted the facts of the mere shooting before they went to bed on last Sunday night.— Is, then, the theory of the Sunday- School books all wrong? No. Our view has been immediate and nar row! We shall see how these men will , change places as the years go by. History will come to assign to them their rightful positions. Master Jack Sheppard, in his day, was a promi nent person; but the Quaker, George Fox, is a revered friend in -homes whose owners rigidly keen the name of the former from their thresholds. A Sensation in Dayton, Ohio. A Dayton special telegram of the folth inst. says: Theall-absorbing to pic for the past few days is the sus pended animation of Mrs. Agnes' Moher, a German lady, who resided on Zeigler, street. 4 She died on last Sunday night of congestion of the brain. After the conclusion of, the funeral service at the church, Tues day afternoon, and when tile .coltin was opened for the friends to take a farewell look, such a life-like appear ance was presented by the corpse, her.lips and ears being flushed, and there being great warmth of body, that her mother and relatives refus ed to allow interment, and in conse quence the body was placed in a vault at St. Henry's Cemetery, where hun dreds of people flocked to see the corpse. By the earnest solicitation of relatives, last evening, the body was removed to the office of the ceme tery, which was warmed up, for the nevasion, and a careful watch kept all ktit hen it was plainly noticeable that the cheekls retaiiiesi their life like appearance, but, were nut so a rm. As the heat of the room was ink-me-ed. it is Um. perspiration was plainly visible on the face and neck, and remained so during the night and to=day. The body will be retained in thiS room and receive constant and proper attention until either life is restored or mortification sets in.

Wiiig states that on Tuesday evening on the Bangor MeV and PiSC is _Railroad was being made up at Oldtown for connection with the E. arid N. A. train, while a locomotive of the former line was miring quite swiftly but a short-dis tance from the depot, a lad about seven years of age walked into the centre of the track, unconscious of the approaching danger. The locomo tive came rushing along and the by standers, horrified at the peril of the boy, shouted wildly for him to run; . but the discovery of his peril seemed to paralyze his limbs, and he stood apparently rivited to the spot by his terror. But just as the engine had al most reached him a young man rush ed from the crowd to the rescue,seized the boy as the pilot of the locomotive was within a few- , feet of the spot, threw him by main force upon the platform beside the rails, and by a mighty effort sprang, almost at the mine time, clear of the track, appa rently grazing the front of the en gine as it thundered by. The bravo fellow who performed this noble act is a young man named Luther &Woo er, of Oldtown, about IS years of age. The cheers which greeted his hum ane achievement were well deserved Old heartily given by the s ielieved spectators. -To
