That fatal day on which Vesuvius, at whose feet the city stood, burst out into an erup tion which shook the earth, poured tor rents of lava from ite riven sides, and discharged, amidst the noise of a hund red thunders, such clouds of ashes as filled the air, produced a darkness deeper than midnight Rua struck such terror in to all hearts that men thought not only that the end of the world had come and all must die, but the Gods themselves were expiring—on that night a sentinel kept watch by the gate which looked to the burning mountain. Amidst unim aginable confusion, and shrieks of terror, mingled with the roar of the volcano, and cries of the mothers who had lost their children in the darkness, the in habitants fled the fatal town, while fall ing ashes, loading the darkened air, and penetrating every place, rose in the streets till they covered the house-roofs, nor left a vestige of the city but a vast silent mound, beneath which it lay un known, dead, and buried, for nearly one thousand seven hundred years. Amidst this terrible disorder the sentinel at the gate had been forgotten ; and as Rome re red her sentinels, happen what might, to hold their poet till relieved by the guard or set at liberty by their offi cers, he had to choose between death and dishonor. Pattern of fidelity, he stood at his post. Slowly but surely the ashes rise on his manly form; now they reach his breast; and now, covering his lips, they choke his breathing., He also was "faithful unto death." After seventeen centuries, they found his skeleton stand ing erect in the marble niche, clad in Its rusty armor—the helmet on his empty skull, and his bony fingers stltl closed upon his spear. And nest almost to the interest I felt in placing myself on the spot where Paul, true to his colors when all men deserted him, plead before the Roman tyrant, was the interest I felt in the niche by the city gate where they found the skeleton of one who, In his fidelity to the cause of Caesar, sets us an example of faithfulness to the cause of Christ—an example it were for the honor of their Master that all his servants fol lowed.—Dr. Guthrie. CURIOUS MARRIAGE CONTRACT.—III the Royal Library of Paris is a written con tract, drawn up in 12.97, between two per sons of noble birth in Armagnac. The document bound the husband and wife to faithful wedlock for seventy years. Itstipulated that the parties should have the right to renew the tie at that time if they mutally agreed; but if not, the chil dren were to be equally divided, and If the number should chance not to be even, they were to draw lots for the odd one. :lgurrrs Wrr.

A Paris letter tells the following story of a Twelfth Night Fete in that city : A wealthy family in the aristocratic boule vard lialesherbes, were amusing them selves in seeking the king's portion, or the ring in the festival cake, when a lady of the company said to the hostess—"l wish my portion to be given to the poor est little boy we can find in the streets." The servant was dispatched on this freez ing night, and not far from the house be found a ragged urchin, trembling with sold and hunger. He brought him up, as ordered, into the gay saloon, where thousand lights glittered, and a sparkling fire gladdened the eyes of the poor little fellow. Dumbfounded and surprised, he drew the portion which the benevolent lady had promised, and, as luck would have it, the little fellow found the "ring," (beans they use in Paris instead,) and of course he was "king." They all shouted out that being a king be must choose a queen. He was asked so to do, and look ing round the company he choose the very lady who had promised to cede her portion of the cake. He was asked why he chose her. He said, "I don't know ! she looks the most like mother!" "Moth er! whose mother?" "My mothei! I never knew her, but was stolen away from her, and here is her portrait!"— With this he drew from out his ragged coat a likeness, which proved to be that of the very lady herself, wtm, in Italy, bad her child stolen from her ; and now he turns up a poor little ragged Savoy-. ard, dragging along a miserable exist ence In Paris, while his mother, by an intuition, perhaps, felt that in the air near to where she was, was one ao dear to her.

An in cident is mentioned by a correspondent, who was desired by his aunt to go to neighbor Shaw's and sec if he had for sale any straw suitable for filling beds.— "Mr. Shaw," says our informant, "was blessed with a goodly 'number of Misses Shaw, and I therefore felt a little timid at encountering them. To make the matter worse, I arrived Just as the fami ly were seated for dinner. Stopping at the door-way, hat in hand, I stammered out: "Mr. Straw, can you spare enough Shaw to fill a couple of beds?" "Well," replied the old gentleman, glancing around at his large family, and enjoying my mistake, "I don't know but I can ; how many will you need ?" Before I could recover, those hateful Shaw girls burst into a chorus of laugh ter, and I-returned to my excellent aunt. AN ANI?WriONATE FAREWELL.— A Mrs. Carson, of tat.

The lightest wood en boat of similar dimensions weighed forty-one pounds. The most singular part is that the paper boat is four times stronger than one of wood. All that por tion save where the sculler sits, is gas tight, so that In the event of a race, suffi cient gas may be taken into it to reduce its weight to eight pounds! A man pul ling in a boat weighing but eight pounds is something to think of with astonish ment. There is a paper church near Berlin, Prussia. The rellevos outside, and the statues within, the roof, the ceiling, the Corinthian capitals, are all of papier mache, rendered waterproof by satura tion in vitriol, lime-water-whey, and white of egg.

DOG DIGNITY Sir Walter Scott declared that he could believe anything of dogs. He was very fond of them, studied their Idlotlynemeies closely, wrote voluminously In their ptaise, sad told many stories of their un accountable habits. Once, ho said, he desired an old pointer of great experience, a prodigious favorite, and steady in the field as a rock, to accompany his friend, Daniel Terry, the actor, then ou a visit to Abbottsford, and who, for the nonce, :voted himself a sporting excursion. The dog wagged his tall in token of pleased obedience, shook out his ears, led the way with - a confident air, and began ranging about with most scientific pre cision. Suddenly he pointed—up sprang a numerous covey. Terry, bent on slaughter, fired both barrels at once, aim ing 1p the centre of the enemy, and missed. The dog turned round in utter astonishment, wondering who could be behind him, and looked Terry full in the face ; but, after a pause, shook himself again and went to work as before.- A second steady point, a second fusliside, and no effects. The dog then deliber ately wheeled about and trotted hoble aE his leisure, leaving, the discomfitted venator to find for himself during the re mainder of the day. Sir Walter was fond of repeating the anecdote, and al ways declared that it was true, while Terry never said more in contradiction than it was a good story. UNEXPECTED.-11 seemed to be a set tled matter before the meeting of the late Radical State Convention, that Mr. McConaugby and some gentleman from Somerset county were to be the delegates from this District to the Radical Nation al Convention.

He came here during our absence at Harrisburg, and we had no knowledge of his being in town until he called in on us on Thurs day afternoon, for some information on the subject of his nomination.

Second—We charge the said parties with having, throughout then months and years, almost without exception. subordinated the essential and perma nent interests of the whole people to the temporary exigencies (real oi supposed) of what is at best but a faction of the people. Third—We charge the said parties with having, as political foot-pads, robbed the executive function of Its most impor tant attributes, conferring, or pretending to mute?. them on a stalking horse un known to our frame of Government t namely, a-General-In-Chief. Fourth—Not content with the degrada tion of the person for the time being in vested with the Presidential authority, we charge the said parties with the In tention and effort to reduce the position Itself to a level with that of Ring of Great Britain. that Is to say, to an inert and empty title. Fifth—Lastly, we charge the said par- ties WILL having attempted intimidation of the tribunal before which the Official representative of the people's majesty is to be tried. For all and each of which high crimes and misdemeanors we cite the said par ties and all their abettors to appear be fore the High Court of the People on the 3d day of November next, then to listen to our verdict—Guilty, or Not Gull ty.—Erie Observer. (LEANT /LED THE MONETT The old man Grant, in his life of Ulysses, tells the following : "Once, when he was a boy, a show came along, In which there was a mis chievous pony, trained to go round the ring like lightning, and he was expected to throw any boy that attempted to ride him. 'Will any boy come forward and ride this pony?' shouted the ring taps ter. Ulysses stepped forward and mounted the pony. The performance began. Round and round and round the ring went the pony, faster and faster, making the greatest effort to dismount the rider. But Ulysses sat as steady as If he had grown to the pony's back. Presently out came a large monkey and sprang up behind Ulysses. The people set up a great shout of laughter, and on the pony ran, but all produced no effeek on the rider. Then the ring-master madethe monkey jump up on to Ulys ses, shoulders, standing with his feet on his shoulders, and. with his hands holding on to his hair. At this there was another and still louder shout, but not a mud* of Ulysses' face moved. There vas not a tremor of his nerves. A ftw more rounds, and the ring -mu ter gave It up—he had come across a boy that the pony and the monkey both could not dismount." . Of course this demonstrates Grant's fitness for the Presidency! But what has become of the monkey? According to this history, the monkey rode better than Ulysses, who rode only the pony, while the monkey rode both Ulysses and the pony. If that monkey is still alive, let the Radicals nominate him for Presi dent and Ulysses for Vice Presiden t..- Reading Gazette. ON the issue made between General GRAN? and 001:101111 HANCOCK upon the New Orleans matter, the Deutsche &t -hing, a leading Ithdihal organ of that city, thee comments: - We might bear with patience, perhaps, the moral injustice of General Grant's order, for in these times of military rule the people will have to submit to so many arbitrary commands that they have acquired the habit of looking at such orders With equanimity. But we bear with much less patience the great material harm which is done to the whole population by General Grant's or der. None of the Aldermen removed by General Hancock deserved public confidence. They were incapable and corrupt men besides. The men, on the contrary, who were put In their places by General Hancock are known to us as respectable gentlemen. They never were rebels, but always Union men, who in the shortest time gained the con fidence of their fellow citizens. 'They succeeded In decreasing the amount of the outstanding city scrip and they were just about to retire it all from cir culation and clean the city of this wild cat paper, when the order of General Grant removed most of the new Mem bers of the City Council and put the old scoundrels again into office. Its imme• diate consequence was, that the city money went down again and that great looses were sustained by our commerce. By this friendly service to our city Gen eral Grant has trifled sway most of our sympathies, and he probably will break his neck altogether, if he cannot keep away from the cunning politicians who are trying to makes tool of him?

OOlnaV '; On the return of lion. C. E. Boyle, the nominee foe Auditor Ciersend, from the State Convention, to his home in Union town, a number of Democrats formed in procession, and, headed by • brass band, m•robed to hie reeidence and tendered him • serenade, 11l response to which Mr. E. made a short address, .wideh wd and reported In the Genius of Liberty, cc fol lows : I feel very seusiblY the honor you do me, gentlemen, by coming this evening, Inclement as it Is, ,to testify your appro val of my nomination as the l)emocratlo candidate for Auditor General of Penn sylvania. This endorsement I value, highly, because It proceeds from my townsmen—from men with Whom I have long been intimate, and many of whom have known me from my childhood; and I regret that, tired by travel as I am, I cannot properly; acknowledge it. Gentlemen, we Maria atthe threhshold of the most momentous political struggle in which the people of this cnuntry have ever engaged. It differs' frbm all that. have preceded it in this: that while they involved questions of governmental poli cy, many of them, it Is true, vastly impor tant, up:3n the rt.ult of this depends the existence of the government Itself. It is not now a question what the govern ment shall do, but rather whether it shall be preserved from destruction. ' It is evident that the party which sup- ports Congress le carrying forward a rev olution. The Constitution of our fathers established a government of three dis tinct branches—each supreme within its own domain, and each intended to ope rate as a balance to the others. The pow ers of each were clearly limited and de fined; and within a, brief period, the rights of each were scrupulously respect ed by the others.' Rut the party against which we are contending, fatally bent upon its own perpetuation and aggran dizement, and finding itself unable to obtain control of two of the branches of the government, is attempting to eon• centrate in the one which it does control, all the power which should be distillbu• ted among the three. Congress enacts laws plainly onconstitutionah and then undertakes to deprive the Courtsof their clear right to so declare them. It strips the President of powers conferred upon him by the Coustltution,• and assumes them itself or bestoWs them upon its ad herents. Not content with that, it *li fers artieleaof impeachment against him, puts him upon trial for the commission of no offense, and not improbably will deprive him of hisefilte and flit it with one of Its own members. It has eves been proposed to abolish the office altO gether. It dissolves the Union by Act of Congress, after it Was preserved by the beet blood of the land. It destroys ten States, some of them of the original &hie- . teen,, and usurps the powers which be long to them alone. It refines admis shin to Senators and Representatives tot" the alleged commission of othomea, and immediately thereafter admits its own partisans, notoriously guilty of the same acts. This, I say, is revolution—this destroys the government of the Constitution, and sets-up another, totally unlike It. Shall this revolution be eonsumMated, ,or will the people arrest It, and restore and pre; serve the government of the fatheretabe establishment of which has always been regarded as the grandest achievement of human wisdom ? There are other great questions involved In this struggle —none greater have ever been passed up. on by the American people—but this one overshadows them all. Shall the rev°. lotion be arrested? Shall the govern ment be preserved? • I wish to speak with no unndoessary• asperity of those who lipid opinions dif ferent from our own. There are good men, and honest men, and men who love their country devotedly, who do not view the coming struggle as we do. If we are right, let- ix hope that reiteration will show them their error, and the evils Ilkeig to result therefrom, before it is too late. ''banking you, gentlemen, for this manifestation of kindness towards my self, and for this evidence of , your devs- Hon to the great party one of whose hum ble representatives I now am, let me say that In this greatstrugglel feel oenadent you will be bond where you have ever been—battling for the ConatitnUos- of your country, and bravely contending against its assailants, come whence they may. • WRITE and Black Radicals are just now engaged In applying the lath to the backs of those who hadn't* in giving In their allegiance to the new order of things. ' In alluding to this fact4he New York Times says : Stevens and Butler (white men) and Joe Cox, of Richmond, (negro mandr 7 three well-known Radical leaders—are singularly uniform In their views'of what party discipline requires. Stevens i 'bak ing hie fing er above his head, lays, in Congress: "Let me see the recreant who dares vote on the other side."' Rutter says be "would like to see anybodyin the House, or In the country, who' was on the,, side, vote that Andrew Johnson wee a tit man to be President of the United States."
