SELECT MISCELLANY . GETTING IN AT ?TIGHT. The dOor was locked when I got home, said Tom, and how to get in without waking the goVernor was the difficulty. I knew he would giv e me particular fits if he knew I was out after Wu., and the clock had just struck one. The back yard was an impossibility, and but one chance remained. There was a porch over the front door, the roanf which was a few feet below two windows. One of them I knew to:0e fastened down, and the other opened from a bed room, which might or might not be occupied. An old maiden sister of the governor's wife arrived on the same day, and it was very probable that she was in that room; but I knew the bed was in the corner fur thermost from the window, and I hoped to be able to get in and through the room without awaking her, and then I would have a comparatively easy time of it. So, getting a plank' from the neighboring board pile, I rested it against the eaves of the shed, pulled off my shoes, put them in my pocket, and "cooned." All right so far; but I thought it necessa ry, in order not to arouse suspicion in the morning, to remove the fan; dragging it up I threw it off the end, and down it went with an aw ful clatter on a stray dog that had followed me two or three squares, and 'who immediately set up the most awful whine a hound ever gave tongue to. That startled half a doz en dogs in the neighborhood bark ing; a mocking bird in the window above commenced as if he intended to split his throat& it, and a woman in her night clothes appeared at the window across the street. I knew I was'safe as far as she was 'concernA, but if any one came to our window the candle gave light enough to have discoved me. Nobody came, how ever, and the lady, after peeping up and down the street for a minute or two, popped in her head and retired. The mocking bird still kept up his eternal whistle, and it was full half an hour before he and the dog settled Mown and gaveme a chance to move. Creeping slowly along the vAll till I reached the window, I put my hands on the sill, sprang in, and with my legs dangling out. stopped to listen. 'Yes, she was in the room, for I was sore I could hear breathing. After waiting for a minute I cautiously drew up one leg, and then the other, drew them around,"and putting them down on the floor, was just conscious that I had stepped on something soft and yielding, and was withdrawing them when another yell broke forth at my feet; the old maid jumped up from her bed crying "murder!" And the mocking bird started again. A little colored girl was lying on her back under the window, and I had stepped on her face, and of course woke her up. I decided in a mo- went what to.do. The house would Ire arousal, and I would be caught to a certainty unless I could get to my room before the governor was up; but I hadn't a moment to lose, for the little girl was screaming; so I started for-:the door in three steps, struck a chair, stumbled over it of curse, making the awfulest racket you ever heard in the hours of night in a peaveful house. The little girl and the old maid screamed louder than ever; the mocking bird whis tled louder than a steam whistle, and they fairly made a chorus as loud as Ciiirnore'g. I reached the door, however, and quietly- and swiftly opened it, and just got into the hall in time to see the old gentleman open the door, with candle in his hand, and come hurrying up the stairs. There «•as a wardrobe near where I stood, and I sprang, behind it. 1.7 p mune the gov ernor, reached the door, opened it. and in the meantime there were all sorts of confusion and inquiry down stairs as to what was the matter. Nobody else came up, though from where I stood I heard every word of inquiry and explanation in the room. Of course they couldn't make much of it. The little girl was too much frightened and too sound asleep at the time to tell the truth, and the upshot of the husinesss was that they eoneluded she had (been dreaming. and the governor, after giving her a sound shaking and explaining the !natter to the aroused neighbors from the window, went back to his room again. "go far so hood." I now had to go down. stairs, reach the back door, unbar it, get into the yard, make for my room; which was in the second try of the brick building that stood unconnected with, and about a dozen yards from the main one. After giving everybody another half hour to settle down again, I started, Boys, did you ever try to get up or down a pair of stairs at midnight without making a noise? You may try it all sorts of ways, but every step is sure to creak, each with ape= mbar noise of its own, and loud enough, you are sure, to awake ev crybody. I had got nearly to the bottom, when a little ( 1 017, came 'trot ting up the entry toward me, yellink furiously. A suppr - essed "Conic here, Zip !" silenced him, for he rec ognized me; but the little fellow started the mocking bird, and all the dogs in the neighborhood, having learned to take the cue, of course joined the chorus for the third time. I ran along the passage, reachet the door, and unlocked it just as the governor, aroused again, opened his door, and seeing a man coming from the house by the back way, of course cried "Thieves! thieves!" and made a rush after me. I was too quick for him though; I opened the door, sprang out, made for the door that opened into the room below mine, and had just mtched it, when, crash! within a foot of my head, went a brick, and a voice that I knew be longed to the next door neighbor, Tompkins, joined with the governor in the cry of "Thieves! thieve! murder! murder I was safe enough. Running up stairs, I "shelled" myself quicker than I ever did be fore or since, and was in bed, sound asleep, in half a minute. t - arc. Ps!rtat'.._ never heard so many dogs before—th mocking-hint, of course, was out doing all previous efforts—the chick ens began to crow—Totukins. next door, was hallooing "Thieves!" and calling the governor. I could hear screams anti all sorts of noises, and talking among the neighbors. until at length the oldgentleman's voice was heard in the yard "Tom! Tom!" • Torn, fortunately, was sound asleep, snoring. Jumping from my bed, I raised the window, rubbed my eyes, and looked partially frightened (which I wasn't), and asked: "Why, father, what in the world is the matter?" "There's thieves in the house," was the reply; get, your gun and come down—be quick." "He's in the room below You," hallooed Tompkins; "I'm certain of it; I saw him as he ran down, and threw a firebrick at him. f know he didn't pass the door Mr. Jones." I was directed to look out for my- self; the governor stood sentinel at the door below, armed with a club, while Tompkins had five minutes to collect aid from the neighbors, and in less than half that time, so that'. oughly was every house alarmed, there were a dozen or more men in the yard armed with guns, pistols and sticks. The governor led the attack; open ing the door, he called. "Come out here, you house-break ing scoundrel. If you attempt to re sist, blow your brains out." 'Nobody came, however. "Watch the door while I go in; and I was told to look sharp and amyl the rascal if he mine up. stairs. A momentary search was enough to satisfy everybody that the thief was not in the room. up Malts . , then." cried Tottipkias, "for-l'il take my Bible oath that he didn't pass the door." but had So up stairs they ttoolx.al, lit a candle by that times, and there was no burglar there. The strictest search, even looking under a boot, didn't show the faintest trace of him. The yard was examined, then the house., and everybody was tolerably well satisfied' that he escaped; but I was appointed sentinel for the rest of the night, and ordered not to sleep on my post (but I did), under the penalty of flogging. The articles missing, on a thorough investigation the next day, were two pies and the old lady's silver thim ble. The thimble turriedup In a day or two, being discovered under the carpet, but the pie s have not been ac counted for even to this day. On oath I 'could have given very mate rial testimony as to the depositof the stolen property, but the case didn't come before any court,and I remain ed quiet. Didn't the local editors loom, though? One ..of them elongated himself through a half column, and headed the article, "A Diabolical and Atrocious Attempt at Burglary and Murder!" describing with graphic particulars the fiendish attempt to throttle Miss L—and her servant., complimenting the coolness of R. Tompkins, Fsq.. perorating with a withering anathema on the want of vigilance displayed by the police men. It was fun for me to see with what wide awake sagacity the watchman used to stop at our front door and listen during his rounds for a month after, The excitement died away, though, after a while. But I'll never forget the night I tried to get in without making a noise. THE STORY OF RODGiIIIS. One of our family papers preaches a strong temperance sermon, by sim ply telling the story of a woman who, after struggling with the pre-, ternatural strength of a loving wife and mother for years against the de mon drink that possessed her hus band, conquered it and made him once again a freeman. In his last ill ness brandy was prescribed, which he was strong' enough to use only as a medicine; but after his death she "turned to it in her grief, and died, , not many months afterwards, a hope less,. helpless drunkard." Let-us tell a companion story, as true as this, but of as different a com plexion as daylight to night. A few years ago, on any sunny morning, a heap of filthy rags might be seen stretched on some of the bales of a paper warehouse in a neigh boring city, with a strong smell of tobacco smoke and whisky hanging about it. Turning It over, ( which you could do as if it were a log, any time after ten o'clOck in the morn ing,) you would find the swollen face of what had once been a hand. some young man, but there was lit tle hope that the bleared eyes or thick tongue would give an intelli gent answer. The porters, passing by, would push him aside, but not roughly, for the time had been when he had been a jolly, generous fellow, and a favor ite in the office. "Young Rodgers;" some one would give you his history in five minutes; "taken to rum—no chance —poor devil. Stokes—the proprigtor —could not turn him out to starve, so still gave him a nominal salary, and suffered him to hang about the house, lest he should take to worse courses than drinking. There were hints, too, of a widow ed mother, away off in the country, who had been dependent on him, and a sweetheart, a pretty, clinging little girl, both of whom he had long ago abandoned. But there was nothing to be done. The end, through the usual horrors of deliri um tremens, was apparently not far off, One day, as Rodgers was creeping to the nearest bar for his morning bitters, a man, whom hekbarely knew by sight, took him by the elbow and walked with him into a quieter street.' "They • tell me you are Richard Rodgers' son," he said." "Dick Rod gers was the only friend I had for years, and for his sake I would save his boy. Are you willing to let me try ?" "Oh. you can dry," muttered the lad, with an imbecile laugh. This.- nameless friend, nothing daunted, took him to a chamber in his own abuse and put him to bed. There he and his sons kept watch and guarded this poor wretch like a prisoner for months, keeping liquor from him and trying to supply it by medical treatment. He employed a physician, but was not able to pay for a nurse. Any one who has had to deal with a victim of mania-apotu can guess how difficult and loath some a task he had set himself. Ungrateful enough it was at first, for Rodgers struggled against his tor mentors with the ferocity of—well, just what he was—a starving animal. As reason began to return, and his unnatural strength to vanish, he would beg them, in his intervals of reason, not to fail him, but to work out the experiment either to success or death. "It is my last chance," he would cry; "for God's sake be patient !" This man, with his son, did work it out, through all the foul, unmen tionable details, and the end was not death, but a complete success. "How soon," asked a friend of Rodgers.afterwards,"were you trust ed alone?" "Not for two years," he answered, laughing. "I was out of jai I, but in jail bounds. Do you remember that lank, muscular young fellow who had a desk beside mein the office? He took it with the condition that he could !owe it to dog me night and day, to my meals and to Wy bed. That was the son ofthe man who sav ed me. He was taken from a lucrative situation to become my jlailer. God bless him ! How I used to curse , him. 'Can't you trust my honor?' I would cry. 'l'm not convinced that your honor has not theeonsumptidn.' the Scotch-Irishman would say. 'We'll put no burdens on it until it has regained its health.' , ' "Wits your friend wealthy, that he ,c g anid.t.l-aea.lll - iiittr col; I% el - - db.. t eras e I and money to your case ?" "On the contrary, he is but the owner of a small hat store, and sup ports his family out of that. He is rich or noble only in the deed and spirit of friendship." All this was years ago. 'Lodgers is now an industrious, honorable man, married to his old love, with. his gray-haired mother by his hearth, bringing to it theperpetual benedic tion of benignant old age. His friend sells hats--makes no t:peeches nor bruit of any sort in the world. No body has recognized in him a hero..

Mratrals, July 15.—The follow ing letter appears in The Avalanche this morning: Oxvonp, July 8, 1873. 2b JeaiEs M. WITiLLA.ALSON, esq.— Mx DEAR SIR: Your letter of vs terday was received by me this even ing. I thank you for the extract clipped from . The Avalancke, headed "A Large Deficit." The facts in this ease are few, and have been so often paraded before the public in all the distorted ferms that malignity and prejudice could .give them, that I recur to them with reluctance. 1 have always had faith in the power of truth and its ultimate triumph over falsehood. But after twelve years the Second Auditor takes up the acixmilt and presents the matter to the public as though something new had been discovered. The whole case is this: The Department of the Interior is made the custodian of the bonds held in trust for various Indian tribes. The interest on these bonds is regularly collected and paid over to these tribes. A clerk in the department is charged with their custody, and if the coupons are regu larly brought forward for collection the head of the department pre Burnes, as a mutter of course, the bonds are In hand. In this case, during my administration of the department, a Mr. Bailey, a-clerk of high standing and unquestioned talent, was charged with this duty. Eaily in the year 1861, after ail the January coupons had been brought forward and regularly collected, and he had been called on to make a full statement of his account for the aud itor,which in itself was fully satisfae tory, it became known that I would in a few days resign my place in the Cabinet, owing to the contemplated withdrawal of 'Mississippi (rem the Union. Then it was Mr. Bailey sent me his confession that he had, without my knowledge or consent in any way, delivered over to Messrs. Russell it, Co., large Governribent contractors bonds to the amount of $821,000, and taken in their stead acceptances of the Secretary of War for the same amount. He stated he had taken the responsibility of doing this to save the credit of the 'War Department, and had not advised me of what lie had done because he knew I would condemn and would not allow him to touch a single bond. As soon as the confession was received the keys of his safe were taken from him and the contents carefully counted, and the state of things proved his confession in every particular. The clerk was dismissed for his Infidelity to his trust, and Congress, then in session, was in formed by a communication from me of what had been done, and this concluded with the request that a committee, consisting exclusively of political opponents, should be ap pointed to examine into and report upon all the facts. The Committee was appointed, and a most thorough search was made into all the circum stances and facts in the case. The Committee were unanimous in ex onerating the Secretary from all blame whatever in the matter, and theirreport was received by Con gress without a dissenting voiee. This was at a timewhen party spirit ran high, but still at a time when members of Congress scorned to en deavor to affix to the name of a pub lic servant any stigma unjustly and falsely. After more than twelve years the Auditor reaches the ac count, and, by rejecting the accept ances of the War Department, in which, I think, he acted correctly, he gives this deficit as something new. The Second Auditor of 1861 cl ims the honor of making this dis co cry, when in truth I was the first to ake all the facts known. For fid ity, efficiency, and promptitude io ti administration of the Interior Depa went from 1857 to 1861, 1 am willing o be compared with any ad ministm nof it, either before or since that itne. Certain it is that no business is twelve years behind time.' I have written this much to you for your own information. I would not have you ignorent of the I facts, but I have so far explained this matter, and know so well that all honorable men are fully satisfied with the propriety of my conduct, that I must leave maligners and the evil disposed to think and say what they please. You can do what you please in saying anything to the edi tors. Ido not suppose they meant to do me any Injustice in publishing the dispatch. if they had thought a minute they would have remember ed publishing my explanation ad- I dressed' o The Cincinnati Enquirer, which they pronounced a detnonstra- Lion.

The humorous man has made it the ve hicle of his pleasant little joke, and the writer of vanities has rejoiced in the opportunity of circulating them cheaply. The curiosity of the idle person through whose hands the card passes is sure to prompt him to read what is written on the back thereof before he delivers it to the person whose name' is written on the face. Hence it is assumed that the secret committed on the postal card, like the secret intrusted to some third party, ceases to be a secret, and the malicious person no less than the humorous person avails himself of the weakness of human curiosity. The opportunity which the malicious person thus enjoys for injuring his enemy Is great. The clerk may be Injured with his employer by some defamation which is purely a fabrica tion.

On opening his will directions were found to look under the front step of his house for some burled money. The sum of twelve thousand five hundred dollars, in twenty-dollar gold pieces, was found buried in four tip boxes. During the late war, the county of Louisa was raided on by the Federal troops several times. On one of these occasions Mr. John son sent his servant out to watch the approaching marauders, and took oc casion meanwhile to effectually con ceal his funds. In due time the sol diers came and upset everything in the house in search of funds, and even eat 11r. Johnson's provisions while sitting on the step - under which be had placed the money, but they did not find it, else his heirs would be now out of that much pocket change. --Asa sleeveless Nashville jacket of the last style passed an old lady and her daughter who were in from the country visiting the exposition: "Just look there Polly," said the mother.

We take from the Altoona Tribune of yesterday an account of the trans actions of a young man who, it would seem, discovered, or pretended to have , discovered an easy road to wealth. The Tribune hays: Mr. Hays, a special agent of the P. O. Depart ment. called on us y es terday Morn ing to make some inquiries in refer ence to Frank H. Lord, (who spells his name lorD.) agent of the Blood- Ell Minstrel Troupe. Mr. H. er Swoope. United States DO trict Attorney, would like to see Mr. Lord, and make settlement of a little transaction which recently oc curred up in the oil regions. It ap pears that Mr. Lord once did busi ness up in Meadville. From this point he.sent nut a great flood of circulars to all parts of the United States and Canda. Ho was the great head of a large association known as "Money Finders." To each person he sent a circular and card. The circular solicited the person receiving it to become a member of the associatkon. If the receiver ac cepted, live dollars was to be ret ru ed to Mr. Lord as initiations f , and a time and place appoint I for a meeting, and receiving instructions in the art of money finding. The card was to be retained and presented at the time acid place of meeting, to assure Mr. S. that the person pre senting himself was the right man, The distribution of these circulars. and the number of answers returned, finally aroused suspicion, and by some means the hotel-keeper, where Mr. Lord was stopping, succeeded in obtain kig a copy of them. It was at once judged that the "Money Finders" association was a counter-- felt money establishment, and the facts being made 'known to the Post office Department, orders were issued to withhold all letters addressed to him, and forward the same to the Dead Letter office in order that those contaning money might be returned to the party sending. It was also discovered that he had rented boxes at Oil City. Franklin and other towns in that vicinity, through which he received mail matter. On the strength of the suspicions thus excited ho was arrested and held to bail for his appearance before the United States Court at Pittsburgh. On the day appointed for trial he fatted to put In an appearance, and his surety handed over the bail mon ey, Mr. Lord having handed it to him before departing from Mead ville. From the little intercourse we had with him, we take him to be a pretty sharp young man, and it may he some time before Mr. Swoope has the pleasure of Interviewing him before the U. S. Court or anywhere else. Another Man Wanted, Old farmer Pettlogill went into his house one day and caught John, the hired man, hugging Mrs. P. The farmer said nothing, and went out into the field.

A Ilule Story Yesterday evening an untutored mule attached to one of the East End and Broadway cars, turned around to look back as it was going in from Second on to Jeffe:•son. The car stopped, and the mule would have walked to the rear end but for the intelligent driver, who pulled hard on the gee rein and gave him such a whack with the ear book that he bounded straight forward like a slung-shot. Then he bounded back like a return bail, just in time to get' the other end of the hook, and re- , newed the forward movement with such force that the rebound brought him up in a collapsed condition against the breastwork of the car. The driver looked shaky, the mule seemed anxious to go somewhere, and just then two more cars came up and stopped to see what was going on. A large crowd came up to, and a young man in nice clothes, who looked as if he might be an agent of the Humane Society, patted the creature on the neck, toot: him gent ly by the bit, and told him to "come." He only asked him once, and the mule went. When they picked the young gentleman up, and put his hat on again, and wanted to know if he was much hurt,he said he thought it wouldn't be more than two ribs and a collar bone, and :then fainted away. He was carried to the nearest drug store just as three more came up, and the number of spectators in creased to 900. The six drivers then formed a hollow square, with the ' mule in the center, and for about . three minutes the gentle creature bent forward and backward with a arseeteed ma - NPRagroTit something broke, and he skimmed out of his harness and disappeared around the corner of Second and Market like a shot from a mountain howitzer. Then the six intelligent drivers put their shoulders to the car and pushed It over the grade. When this was done the repentant mule was brought back, hitched up, and trotted away with his load, and everybody wanted to know of every body else why they didn't do that in the finit efface? Dararlulanimmui. The following explanation of the process, by which the monkey rises to the dignity of a man, under the Ppilosophical system enunciated by Darwin the materialist, has been very happily elucidated in a few re marks made by a Dt. Hudson of Oakland, California, at a convention of learned Drs. to discuss the ques tion in San Francisco. In which he says: "For instance, you take the com mon arnorphoza, and you will all no tice that in a short time it becomes a perfect stramatopora, and then you will see that the change to an olea ginous athanthaspongia is only a matter of gime.

Now, then, hay ing once established this fact, the conclusion is by no means a hypo thetical one that a biastoidea can in the same manner become an echin odermata.
