THE ZEITIREECTION.
When Lord Lindsey was . travelling in
Egypt, he found a mummy; the Inscription
on which showed that it was about two
thousand years old. Unwrapping it, be
discovered in one ails handl a tiny root.
He brought the root to England, and plant
ed it, when lo ! it bloomed and produced a
lovely flower.
The following beautiful stanzas, by Mrs.
S. H. Bradford, were suggested by the in
teresting incident:
Two thousand years ago, a flower
Bloomed lightly in a far-off land ;
Two thousand years ago, its seed
Was placed within a dead man's hand.
Before the Saviour came to earth,
That man had lived, and loved, and died,
And even in that far-off time,
The flower had spread Its perfume wide.
Suns rose and set, years came and went,
The dead had kept its treasure
Nationis were born, and turned to dust,
While life was hidden in thatishell.
The shrivelled hand is robbed at last,
The seed is buried in the earth ;
When lo 1 the life - --long bidden there—
Into a glorious flower burst forth.
Just'such a plant as that which grew
From such a seed when buried low ;
Just such a flower in Egypt bloomed
And died two thousand years ago.
And will not He who watched the seed,
And kept the lifemithlu the shell,
When those He l6es are laid to rest,
Watch o'er their buried dust as well?
And will not He from 'neath the sod
Cause Something glorious to arise?
Aye, though it sleep two thousand years,
Yet all that buried dust shall rise. -
Just such a face as greets you now,
Just such a form as here we wear,
Only more glorious far, will rise
To meet the Saviour in the air.
Then will I lay me down in pesos, \
When called to leave this vale of tears,
For "in my flesh shall I see God,"
E'en though I sleep two thousand years.
A BABY SOLILO44T,
lam here. And, if this is what they call
the world, -I don't think much of it. It's a
very flannelly world, and smells of paregoric
awfully. It's a dreadful light world, too, and
makes me blink, I tell you. And I don't know
what to do with my hands I think I'll dig
my fists In my eyes No, Iwon't. scrab
ble at the corner of my blanket and chew it
up, and then I'll holler; whatever - happens,
I'll holler. And the more paregoric they giie
me the louder I'll yell. That old nurse puts
the spoon in the corner of my mouth in a very
uneasy way, and keeps tasting my milk her
self all the while. She spilled snuff in it last
night, and, when I hollered, she trotted me.
That comes-of being a two days' old baby.
Never mind, when I'm a man, I'll pay her
back good. There's a pin sticking in me now,
and if I say a word about it I'll be trotted or
fed and I would rather have catnip tea. I'll
tell you who j am. tI found out to-day. I
beard folks say, "Hush, don't wake up Em
meline's baby." That's 'me. I'm "Emme
roe's baby," and I auppose that pretty, white
faced woman over on the pillows is Emme
line.
No, I was mistaken, for a chap was in hers
just now and wanted to see Bob's baby, and
looked at me, and said I "was a funny little
toad, and looked just like Bob." He smelt of
cigars, and I'm not used to them. I wonder
who else I belong to. Tee, ther,f a another
one—that's "Ganma." Emmeline told me,
and then she took me up and held me against
her soft cheek and said, "It was Ganma's
baby, so it was." I declare Ido not know
who I do belong to; but I'll holler, and, may
be,, 171 find out.
There comes Snuffy with catnip tea. The
idea of giving babies catnip tea when they are
crying for information! rm going to sleep.
I wonder if I don't look pretty red in the
face ? I wonder why my hands won't go
where I want them to.
Tux New Orleans Tribune gives the fol
lowing capital contrast of the two Moseses,
of whom Andrew is'the latest specimen :
The true Moses was the meekest of meth ;
our Moses is the most mulish. The true
Moses was a man of prayer; our Moses is a
man of oaths. The true Moses was slow of
speech, and had.hls brother for a mouthpiece ;
our Moses unfortunately _speaks for him
self. The true Moses was a great law-giver ;
our Moses is a notorious law-breaker. The
tr. „Moen forsook Egypt, not fearing the
wrath of rte king ; our Moses has gone
down to Egypt for help. 'The true Moses
turned his back on the foe of his country ;
our Moses has turned hie back on his' friends
and the friends of his country. The true
Moses "endured" to the end; our Moses has
betrayed' and abandoned the cause to which
he swore allegiance. The true Moses led an
oppressed people out of bondage ; our Moses
promised. to do it, but lett them to their foes.
The true Moses labored to save the people
from the bite Of fiery serpents; our Moses has
sough to have all the people bitten by them
e., by Copperheads,. When .the true
Moses died the children Of ?Israel wept for
him 30 days; when our Moses shall leave the
White House for Tennessee, all the people
will say amen. The man. who reeled into
office ought to be ruled out.
A DESPERATZ DUEL—A duel took place in
New Orleans lately between two creolee,
which is described as a very desperate en
counter. The 'weapons used were French na
vy broad swords whetted up , to keenness.
The parties were experts, seconded by equally
good swordsmen. The combat lasted a few
minutes only, when one contestant received
a cut over the right temple and the other a se
rious wound in the led wrist In his suecessfok
endeavor to ward off a deadij blow-of his ad-
Veniari r alined at his abdomen. The combat
was then arrested, and the wounded parties
received the attention of tibrir physicians.
The floor upon which this desperate duel
took place was literally covered withllood,
which flowed in great proftsliCn fkefn the
wounds of both combatants., Thr,), cause of
the duel was of a persieng chamfer. -

TIIE POWER, Op IMAGINATION.
Billy Smith is a carriage -maker in a shop
of Pulford & Co., in our village. Billy is a
'genius, as the gorgeous red and yellow stripes
on Pulford's wagons show; and while coun
terfeiting nature one day, for his own amuse
ment, in the rear of the shop, his mind hap
pened to run on the subject of rotten eggs,
and forthwith one of these interesting objects
appeared on the board beneath his magical
brush. It was represented as broken, and
was so natural tbit an observer might fancy
that it caused a disagreeable odor. The pic
ture remained there for some time, all who
had occasion to go that way not caring to
disturb a thing so forbidding to the delicate
senses of the nasal protuberance. One day
Squire saw it, and applied his fin
gers to his nose. Billy saw him, and ex
plained to him that it was merely paint. At
first he would hardly believe, but finally con
vinced, he offered Billy ten dollars to paint a
similar one on his door-step.
The Squire was something of a wag, and
wished to see the effect produced on the la
dies and gentlemen Who had been invited to
a party at his house itiat evening.
Billy received ten dollars, and promised to
have the painting ready In time.
Evening arrived, and so did the ladies and
gentlemen; and as each in succession passed
over Billy'S painting, they elevated their feet
and skins, and, applying their perfumed
handkerchiefs to their noses, wondered if the
Squire was aware of the presence of that
frightful thing on the step.
The party progressed, and the rotten egg
was the subject of much remark. Squire_
M----- heard and felt jolly over the success
of his little practical joke. When everybody
was chatting at the table after supper, and
not a few of them abodt the "apparition" at
the door, the Squire arose, and uttering a
preliminary "hem said—
"I suppose you all saw that on my door
step, didn't you ?"
Everybody assented, some of the females
uttered a little scream, and all of that sex
fanned themselves vigorously. The Squire
resumed—
"I had that placed there to illustrate the
power of imagination, as I'll show you, if
you'll adjourn to the door."
All went.
"Now," said the squire, taking out his
snow? pocket-handkerchief, "you will see
thst this is not what you supposed it was, but
merely a painting." 4, And he pressed the
handkerchief on the t 'illustrated" spot, then
raised it suddenly to his nose. "By Jupiter !"
he exclaimed, "it's a rotten egg after all !"
Billy had taken the ten dollars, and broken
a bona fide rotten egg on the doorstep.
PHILOSOPHICAL—A fltudent under examina
tion, who was asked the different effects of
heat and cold, replied :
"Heat expands and cold contracts."
"Quite right ; can you give me an exam
ple ?"
"Yes, in summer, which is hot, the
days are long; but in winter, which is cold,
the days are short!"
A. oaristricut who wanted to make a tell
ing speech in a Sunday school thought he
would adopt the colloquial style, and this is
what happened :
"Now_boya, what does a man want when
he goes a fishing?"
A shrill voice in the crowd went directly to
the point with :
"Wants a bite !"
The gentleman sat down.
Tax Columbus (Ohio) State Journal
makes the following statement in connection
with Governer Seymour's declension :
"We happen to know that there is on file in
the State Department sworn evidence of
Horatio Seymour's complicity with the Da
vis Rebellion, for the reason that it became
Our duty while serving in an official capacity
to prepare and transmit to the Government
the evidence to which we refer. Mr. Sey
mour Is probably aware that should he ever
become a candidate for the Presidency, the
sworn statements of reliable witnesses will
convict him of having been, hi the Fall of
1864, in confidential correspondencewith
Clement C. Clay and James P. Holcombe,
then acting as Commissioners for the South
ern States. In Canada. It is somewhat singu
lar, but at the same time a significant fact,
that the direct proof of Seymour's treasona
ble correspondence with the ememy has never
been made known to the public."
Wa regret to see that the Depocratic mem
bers of the Senate are determino to make a
partisan trial of the impeachment of the act
ing President,' so far as it Is in their power to
impart that aspect to it. They give strong in
dications of a purpose to defend Johnson,
whether guilty or not, in their party capacity,
and WOW to have forgotten or ignored their
duty, to be governed by the law and the testi
mony. All good men will deprecate this pro
stitution of justice to serve partisan ends.
ANDY Johnson was born to luck. He is
the first Vice President who ever was inaugu
rated when drunk; he is the first President
who ever reached the Presidency through the
murder of the Presidenkelect, and he is the
first President who ever was indicted for high
crimes and misdemeanors. He crane into the
White House through assassination, and will
go out of it by impeachment. A very re
markable man is this Copperhead "Moses."

ABOUT BOBS OF. NOTE.
For many people horrors isie an irresisti
ble charm, and the more horrible the horrors
are the better they like them, especially if
founded on a groundwork of fact. Amongst
these, the sale and serving of human flesh in
unsuspected forms has ever been a favorite
topic with the lovers of the hideous and the
terrible. From the time of the Arabian
Nights to the present date, many a listening
ear has been fascinated by accounts of how
monsters in human shape (a race of criminals, I
it is believed, now quite extinct) beguiled
honest and healthy appetited men into acts of
nnconscious cannibalism. It is a pleasure
analogous to hearing the rain beat, and the
tempest howl, while you are snugly ensconced
in your chimney corner. It is so utterly Un
likely, so impossible, now, that you should
be made, under any conceivable circumstance,
to commit true and real anthropophagy, that
it merely gives you a pleasing shudder, a de
lightful fright, when you hear of such things
occurring in by gone times. They are legen
dary lore, you think, no more authentic than
Bluebeard's biography; their actors are im
aginary beings, as unsupported by fact as
European ogres or oriental ghouls. Such
legendary tales have, nevertheless, been al
most
always taken from history. In such
cases, to arrive at the historical fact, it suf
flees to strip it of the details superadded by
popular credulity.
Thus, many a child has been frightened by
nurses' tales abOut butchers and pastry cooks
selling human flesh In Paris. Those tales I
were doubtless greatly exaggerated ; nay, we
might utterly refuse to credit them, if such
facts were not attested by authentic docu
ments. In parchment records, several cen
turies old, it is stated that a butcher at Tour
nus, a small town in Burgundy, publicly sold
human flesh, passing it off for veal. AnOther
memorable instance occurred in the year of
grace 1260, when Louis IX., commonly called
Saint Louis, was king of France.
At that time there dwelt at the corner of
the Rue des Deux-Ermites, at the entrance of
the Rae des Marmousets, a master barber,
whose name was Oliver Galipaud. With the
usual obsequiousness and gossip of his breth
ren,he handled the razor with unusual dexter
ity. His reputation, consequently, stood
high, and his customers were well-to-do and
numerous.
M. Galipaud's next-door neighbor was a
pastry cook named Grimaldi, a native of
Florence, who drove, in his way, as flourish
ing a business as his friend Galipaud. His
shop was one of the best frequented in town.
Certain little patties, made after a receipt of
his own, were sought by epicures from every
quarter. The patties, in fact, were prepared
with considerable skill ; they were better
seasoned, and more delicately flavored, than
any to be had of other pastry cooks. He sold
an enormous quantity every day. As a mat
ter of course, he made a deal of money by
them.
One Christmas Eve, as it was getting dark,
a bell-ringer at the cathedral of Notre Dame
named Lefevre, as he was passing down the
Rue des Marmousets, had the unlucky idea of
getting shaved. He stepped into GaUpend's
shop, accompanied by a little spaniel called
Carpillon. At a sign from his master, the dog
lay down in a corner of the shop Rear the
door, while he himself went into the back
shop, where the barber awaited him, napkin
in hand.
A few minutes afterwards Carpillonaudden
ly heard a groan, immediately follolied by a
dull, heavy sound, like that of a door shut
firmly to. The dog pricked his ears, jumped
on his feet, and rushed into the back shop,
barking loudly. He searched for his master,
but no master was to be foimd. The bell
ringer had disappeared. Something strange
and horrible must have occurred, for the dog
could not bejnade to cease from howling.—
Galipand, in a rage, seized a thick stick, with
the evident intention of knocking the dog on
the head. Carpillon avoided the blow, and
becoming furious in turn attacked the barber's
legs, which he bit severely in several places.—
After wreaking this Partial vengeance, he re
treated tinder a heavy piece of furniture,where
he recommenced his cries and yells.
While this was going on two of the bell
ringer's friends entered the barber's shop.—
Carpillon, recognizing them at once, crept out
of his retreat, ran towards them, and renewed
his plaintive lamentations.
"Why, it's Carpillon!" one of them ex
claimed. "What is the matter, Carpillon ?
Where is your master ?"
These words . redoubled the dog's excite
ment. He rushed again upon the barber, and
followed'him to the further end of his. back
shop. Tee two men followed, thinking to
calm him ; but they stopped short as if petrift
ed, at beholding Galipaud hastily pick up a
bloody nightcap. .The barber's fearful pallor,
his haggard eyes, his strange embarrassment,
were a complete revelation for these two wit
nesses. They turned pale, and trembled with
horror themselves. "Lefevre has been mur
dered !" they involuntarily exclaimed.
The words struck Galipaud like a thunder- -
bolt. He saw that he was lost, and tried to
escape. The bell-ringer's friends barred the
passage, shooting for help. In a few minutes
the shop was crowded. The legal authorities
soon arrived. They then set about searching
the premises, which speedily resulted in a
frightful discovery.
Oliver Galipaud was a practised assassin,
and Grimaldi, the pastry cook, was his ac
complice. In the barber's back shop they
found a trapdoor, swinging on a hinge, and
opening into the cellar beneath. As 'soon as
the wretch had cut a victim's throat, he threw
him down backwards-upon the trap door, and
the body. immediatelydisappeared. At night,
after the commission of every murder, Gall
pand went down into his cellar,and cut up the
body into joints, exactly as a professional
butcher would. The head and the bones were
put Into the Seine at the
_first opportunity.--
The flesh was sold to his ` n eighbor Grimaldi ;
and it was Withlhis meat that the wretch made
the famous patties which all Paris enjoyed
with so keen a relish. A mei door, ex.
• canted in the foundation of the building, es.
tabliahed a communication between the ad
' joining celltua - occupied by this couple of can
nibal accomplices.
The number of persons murdered by Gali
palid could never be preciaely ascertained.--
Whim' the officers of Justice searched the cel
lar, they found, besides the - Notre Dame bell
ringer's corpse, two heads separated from their
bodies. They were still lying clime to the
butcher's bleak on which the monster tased i ts
cut up human flesh. Probably he had

Another Denude: Deg, bearing &o
eingtdnr mune of "Bristol," Is recorded in
It ,
ME=
the Judicial annals of the South of France.
It dates from the year 1718.
A Marseilles paper-merchant went to make
purchases at Toulon. That done, he left
Tendon to return tolfarseilles. Hts wife and
son, apprised of his departure, awaited his
coming. FOr four long days they walled in
vain, In a state of fearful and ever-increasing
anxiety. On the morning
of the Oh day,
their dog, who had accompanied
his master
in his .1' 5 ' 111 :ley; arrived alone. The poor
creature was in a pitiable state. Xvery sound
of his voice, every movement he made, an
nounced the deepest grief. He Hand his
mistress's hands, lay down at her feet, and
began to howl. •
"Misfortune has come to the house," she
said. "A presentiment of. evil chokes my
breath. If your father should be dead! The
Lord have pity on us!"
"If you wish, mother, I am ready te.go in
search of him."
"Go, my boy ; go, by all means. Take
Bristol with you. He will be sure to lead
you to his master, alive or dead."
Bristol, hearing what was said, rose to his
feet, and walked slowly toward • the door.—
The young man saddled a good horse, and set
off at once upon his minion. He did not re
turn until the following day. During the
whole time of his absence his mothei had
prayed and wept.
"You are alone," she said. "I understand
what that means. Your father is no more,
and I am left a widow."
He knelt by her side, and Bristol licked
their hands while they wept together.
"What information have you obtained ?"
she asked. a
"My father has been murdered in the for
est of Cognicm." •
For a whole month, the anthoritics on on e
hand, and the widow and her son on the oth
er, made every effort to discover the murder
er ; but all in vain ; they could not even find
out any individual on whom they could fix a
reasonable suspicion. Six months elapsed.
The attention of the officers'of justice being
directed to more recent crimes, they thought
no more of the paper;merchant. But thosehe
had left still mourned his loss. Bristol bad
lost all his gayety. He spent whole hours
sorrowfully stretched on a little straw in the
court yard of the house.
One evening, while following his young
master about ths town, be entered with him
into a cafe in which several strangers were
assembled. The young min took'his seat at
a table beside a couple of acquaintances, and
Bristol having nothing better to do, beguiled
the time by walking up and down the room.—
Suddenly, after uttering a low growl, he furi
ously flew at a tall thin man who was emus -
ing himself with a game of draughts.
The man, in alarm, called out for help.—
The guests rose from their seats and crowded
round him. They tried to keep the dog
back; they beat him severely about the head
and loins ; but all to no purpose: It only re
doubled Bristol's fury. He paid no attention
to the persons who maltreated him ; all his
rage was directed against the man who was
playing draughts. As soon es he was driven
off, he attacked him again; Tie tore his
clothes and bit his legs.
"This is insufferable, abominable !" shout
ed the bystanders, addressing Bristol's own- •
er. "Call off your dog, and take him out of
the room."
With some difficulty the young man suc
ceeded in making the enraged animal loose
his hold, and could find no other means of
calming him except by carrying him quite out
of the cafe. But before they had gone a hun
dred steps, Bristol left his master, and return
ed to the cafe, and again attacked the tall thin
stranger. Once more the young man was
obliged to employ force to separate the dog
from his enemy.
Amongst the witnesses of this terrible scene
there happened to be a commercial gentleman
who had formerly been intimately acquainted
with the paper-merchant. Pale and trembling
with emotion, he approached the young man,.
and inquired in a whisper, "When your fath
er took his unfortunate journey to Toulon,
had he this dog with him ?"
"Yes," replied the paper-merchant's son.
"Bristol even reached our ho use before the
disaster which has ruined us was known."
During this secret conversation, Bristol,
whom his master held in check by means of
a rope tied round his neck, made extraordi
nary efforts to get lopse.
"I may be mistaken," the other continued,
"but it is just possible this man may be your
father's murderer. Remain here while all
these people are talking amongst themselves
about what has happened ; I will run to the
Commissaire de Police for a. force sufficient
to arrest the man."
In a'quarter of an hoar he came back with
a posse of men, who surrounded and filled
the public house. The suspected individual
was at once arrested, and conducted forthwith
to prison. On searching him, they found up
on him the paper -merchant's watch and sev
eral other trinkets which were identified is
having been his property. The possession of
those articles was a strong presumption of
the prisoner's guilt ; but It was also proved
that, on the day of the murder, he had been
met by a little girl as he came out of the for
est of Cognion. He was found guilty, and
condemned to death: - After strong and .reit
crated protestations of innocence, he avowed
the crime to his confessor at the last moment
as he was - mounting the very steps of the
scaffold. •
At the- present day, dogs are not a whit the
less capable of indicating who is the culprit.
A grocernt Boulogne4iur-Seine, near Paris,
T—, found out that he had been robbed
for some time past without being able to dis
cover the offender. As it was during the
night that his shop was entered, he had it
guarded by his dog, an intelligentanimal who
usually slept in his private apartments.
One night (in February, 17671, being awak
ened by furious barking, he immediately rep,
went down to the shop, found the street door
open, and searching in all directions, could
find nobody. He therefore unchained .his
dog, who soon hit upon a scent, folks:teed •it
into the Street, and then, after stopping at a
neighboring house, came back to his toaster,
gave a peculiar and signficant growl, and then
returned to track the same scent several times
over. His whole behavior seemed to indicate
that the individual who had entered. the shop
had taken refuge in that house. This circum--
stance confirmed the suspicions T—e.n
tertained respecting his nephew o—, who
lodged in that house, whom he presumed to
be the author of the various thefts.
