had passed before the servant could get the cash,
safely into his saddle-bogs.
A fresh disaster very nearly put an untimely
end to ins mission and his life, and that of hfs
master also, for his horse, urged suddenly into
rapid action, became unruly, and threw him
violently to the ground, whore, however, ho
still retained hold of the bridle, and after hav
ing been dragged some distance, succeeded in
regaining his sent and resuming lus journey,
narrowly watched by the brigand’s videettes,
who had remained In the neighborhood of the
town-gate to see if he came out unattended. It
wanted but half an hour of the time agreed on.
and the brigands, who remained in custod}’ of
Arringht, had already begun to discuss the
advisability of cutting their prisoners’ throats
and decamping into the forest, when the mes
senger was descried returning towards the cave
—a welcome sight for nil parties. The money
wns counted out and found correct. Signor
Arringlii was restored to upper day, and the
brigands were so overjoyed at the successful
result of their enterprise, and so unwilling to
risk any further demy, that (hey turned the
lad adrift also, without waiting for the thou
sand scudi which they had sent the overseer to
demand ns his ransom.
Just before his encounter with the brigands.
Signor Arrtnghi’s attention had been attracted
by a peasant lying on the roadside, and slink* •
ing as if in an excess of malaria fever,and whilst j
telling his coachman inquire if the man was [
ill, he heard the summons to stand, from seven
men In front, who were directly joined by the
pretended invalid. From the men’s account
and dialect, they appeared to bo from the king
dom of Naples, and this supposition would be
corroborated by their style of dress and sandi Is. ;
With regard 'o their features, they were so j
horribly disguised by red and black stripes, i
that it would be difficult for their victim to
recognise them, even were they arrested, which
they will ere now render impossible, by rccros- i
sing the frontier with their booty. They were:
evidently well aware of Signor Arringlii *s iden
tity and wealth, ns thev told him his name and
surname, when he said he had no means of
paying the ransom, ami desired him to put back
into hi* pocket the money he had about him,
with which he at first hoped to appease their
avidity.
I hear that Signor Arringht, having collected
here in Rome the money he required to repay
his friend Mammucheri, for the sum he had od
vauccd for his ransom, had just set out again
for Velletri, providing, however, against the
possibility of a second coup de main, now (hat
he has so ample a ransom about him, by paying
for a strong escort.
Dreams nnd Apportions.
From Mic experience of many observers, and |
my own. (says Hr. Forbes Winslow.) it seems :
evident that in nil coses of incubus, a dislur- ■
bnnee of I he circulation is the predisposing cause,
ami the dreamer thus affected invariably seems
to lose nil power over the voluntary muscles,
and this condition of the muscular system dif
fers from the others to be subsequently indica
ted. And. further, we make remark, that in
true incubus the intercostal muscles are impli
cated. hence the impotent ellorts of the dreamer
to resist attacks, and c o forth. One example
will suffice to illustrate the latter statement - :-'
“ A gentleman of our acquaintance, otft ro
bust. active temperament, and well'formed
head, dreamed that he saw a low. dirty looking
boy open IHs bid-room door* and in tho.niobt
impudent manner stare him in the face, seem
ingly without heeding (hat he was wide awake:
and from this circumstance he became alarmed,
from a conviction that there was some adult l
associate at the outside of the lud-ronm ; that '
henliomptcd. nevertheless, to speak to them- 1
trmh r, hut he could not; and yet he «nw, with '
a sense of Indignation, the jmenile thief open 1
diflcrent drawers, from one of which hcexlracl
cd a gold wntrh. ami diamond studs and rings, i
with a handful of notes and a bag of sovereigns; (
and alter packing them up. deliberately, the •
delinquent came op to his Ixd side, and with a
most impudent leer, nodded bis bend, and said.
• (Jood night, old chap.’ The wrath of the 1
sleeper was ro great that he tried hard to rise I
and seize ihc thief, but ho could not ; ho was I
equally impotent in the attempt to throw some
thing at him, or to make any noise (n arouse
hw servants. But these ellorts awoke him. ly-1
ing upon his left side, and his arm pressed a- ,
gainst the heart, while his lower extremities
were cold." i
We mny, then fore, reasonably suppose, the
whole phenomena to the fact, that some of the
muscles were deprived of a due supply of blood,
and lo an excessive supply of ibis huid to the
brain.
Oi.n IlrNniiKD —Tho time of Old Hundred
h universally popular as it is universally known.
It is one of those sacred melodies which never
wear out. and in this point of durability Is
strikingly contrasted with llio frothy and va
pid tunes w#lich ni'e continually soliciting at
tention with liillo prospect of immortality.—
The authorship of this tunc has long been a
mooted |K>iut. It has been respectively ascrib
ed both to Handel mid Purcell : but by a very
recent discovery it has been found that neither
of (hem is entitled to the honor. Handel diet!
in 1759. and Purcell in 1005. while in Lincoln
Cathedral Library a French Psalter has recent
ly been brought to light which contains the
identical Old Hundred ns it is now sung. Thus
the authorship is likely to remain among the
things unknown. It is n pleasing fact winch
Is thus set forth, that the presumptions musi
cians, who have laid violent hands on some of
mirold tunes, have never ventured to amend
Old Hundred, which has gained the car of the
chqrch for otleast three generations.
CAnnyrxo Uomb Bundles,—Many people
have a contemptible fear of being seen to .carry
any bundle, .however small, having the absurd
idea that there is a social degradation in' the

There is U pride that-is higher, tjint hVIsM from
a consciousness of there being something m jbb
individual not to bo aiTecictl by such accident's

pride was exhibited by the Soil of Jerome Ify

UPLAND AND ITS INHABITANTS.
The number of the Russian Lapps does not
exceed 2,000: those of Swedish Lapland were
estimated in 1844 at 4,0(50, and those of North
ern Norway s,ooo—an aggregate of only 11,000
souls. Besides the Lapp population, there are
to be found on the shore of the White Sen sev
eral villages of Russians, stretching along from
Kerett to the Bay of Kandalasch tor Oandalax.)
Between the village of Kandalascnka and Kola,
on the const at the mouth of the Touloma, a
distance of 213 wersts, (141 miles,) there arc
seven post stations, the mails being carried
from one to another by reindeer, four of which
animals arc Kept at each station. This mode
of transport, however, is only employed in win
ter ; in summer everything being transported
first, a few miles by land to Lake Imandra,
then the whole length of that fine body of wa
ter, some 60 miles, thence across to the River
Touloma, and down that stream to Kola. The
1 navigation of the Lake, by the way, is not al
ways free Tram danger.
The language of the Lapps is similar to that
of the Finns, from which race they are original
ly an offshoot. The Lapps, in general, arc of
middle stature. They have large heads, short
necks, small brown-red eyes, owing to the con*
( stnnt smoke in their huts, high check bones,
j t »in beards and large hands. Those of Norway
| arc distinguished from the Russian Lapps, by
I the blackness, luxuriance and gloss of t eir
hair; the more northern portion of the race arc
somewhat larger, more muscular and of a light
er complexion than the rest. Those of Sweden
and Norway arc to some extent more cultivat
ed, enterprising and industrious than those of
: Russia, and make light of the greatest priva
| lions and hardships. The richest of the latter
| have not more than 800 reindeer, while the for-
I mcr possess Horn 2.000 to 3.U00. In Sweden
ami Norway, whoever wns from 400 to 500
| passes for u man in moderate circumstances ;
1 with 200 a small family with proper prudence
| can live without suffering from want, but less
j than this number plunges n family into nil the
troubles of poverty. Whoever bns not more ,
| than fifty, adds his herd to that of some rich j
[ man,and becomes his servant—almost his slave, *
I and is bound in the proper season to follow him
to the hunting or fishing grounds. I
Fish, game, and the Utah of the reindeer arc |
the usual food of the Upps. Bread they never j
cat, though of the rye meal, which they procure ,
in Kola or of the fishermen in barter for the
products of their reindeer herds, they make a ,
sort of flat or pan cakes, mingling the meal;
with the pounded bark of trees. For this pur-,
pose the meal is first soaked in cold water, and
the cakes baked upon a hot iron. They arc
eaten with butler or codfish oil, which is es
teemed a great luxury. The mingling of the
[ bark with the meal is not done merely for the :
I sake of economy, the Lapps considering U an I
! excellent ami scorbutic. They are very fond i
: of salt, ami eat nothing uncooked. Their cook- ,
I cry is all dime in unturned copper vessels, per*
1 haps because in all Lapland there arc no pew-1
1 lowers ; more probably, however, it is a long I
'descended custom, since in nil Northern Asia)
| the use of copper wns formerly universal, and ■
the art of overlaying that metal could hardly
be known by the rude inhabitants. Neverthe
less, Cases of poisoning from the copper rover
occur, being" rendered Impossible'by the perfect
cleanliness of tho copper- vessels, Which -after
every meal arc'scoured with sand till they shine
like mirrors. Besides, after, the food is suffi
ciently-cooked, it is immediately poured inlp
wooden vessels of homo manufacture.
The Norwegian nnd Swedish Lapps make (
cheese of reindeer milk, and carefully save for ,
use all the whey. They milk (heir am- !
Dials summer and uniter, and freeze the milk
which is set apart for cheese. The women
consider this ns a great luxury. It is remar
kable for its pleasant odor, nnd has a ready
sale in Norway at n rather high pnee. The
Russian Lapps have no idea of making cheese
from their reindeer milk, although the manu
facture, beyond it doubt, would be of great ad
i milage lo them. This milk is distinguished
for its excellent flavor; in color and consistency
it is like thick cream from the milk of cows,
and is remarkably nourishing.
Ancctlotc of Cnrron.
A farmer, attending a fair with a hundred
pounds in his pocket, look the precaution of
depositing it in the hands of the landlord of
the public house at which ho slopped. Having
occasion for it shortly afterward, he resorted lo
mine host for payment. But the landlord, too
deep for the countryman, wondered what ho
meant nnd was quite sure no such sum had
ever been deposited in his hand by iho aston
ished rustic. After ineileolnal appeals to the
recollection, and finally to the honor of Bar
dolph, (he fanner applied to Currnn for advice.
•‘Have patience, my friend,", sit id the coun
sel, “speak to the landlord civilly—tel) him
you have left your money with BonidOthcr per
son. Take a friend with yon, and lodge with
him another hundred in the presence of your
friend andcomo to me.”
He did so, and returned to his legal friend.
“And now I can’t see how I am going to be
the belter off for this ; If I get my second hun
dred hack again, but is that to 1 Ik? done ?"
"(jo and ask him for it when ho is alone,”
said the connsel.
“Ay, Sir, asking won’t do, I’m afraid, with
out at any rate.
“Never mind, fake my advice," st\id Utc
counsel, “do os 1 hid yon. amt return to nic. M
The fanner returned with his hundred, glad
to tlnd that safely in his possession.
“Now sir, I mi|st be content, hut I don’t
see ns I am much better off.”
“Well, then.” said the counsel, now take
your friend with you, and ask the landlord for
the hundred pounds your friend saw you leave
with hint.”'

THE POOPPT’S TOMB.
MoiiAMMbD.ihe Prophet-of Allah, lies Imricd
>n the city of El Mcdiqab, aj|d nil the world of
[slam goes tip to'bis tomb. About this tomb
there hangs n of mystery. Tho vul
gar story of the suspended bbflln has long been
exploded, mid the, qijcatjon now seems to be,
whether there is any tomb nt'nll ? Lieutenant
Burton, who recently made’ a pilgrimage to
the holy cities, in the disguise of an ARglinn
Dervish, fiirnishcatho most reliable information
upon this point. -We learn from his narrative
that, although thousands go yearly to El Mud
inah to see Inc tombpt the Piophet, yet no one
ever saw it! / :
In one comer of'the 'gfthd mosque of that
city, there is a chamber supposed to be entirely
walled up with stone’or, planking, inside of
which, the pilgrim is told, arc tho tombs of
Mohammed and the flrtt’twd caliphs, Ahubeker
and Omni 4 . ’-But thisavtalled chamber is snr- i
rounded, outside, with a certain, somewhat
like a four-post .bed.. No one is permitted to
look behind the curtain, except the cunichs
who at times replace it wlth a new one. and
they say that a supernatural light surrounds
the tomb that wnqhl strike with blindness any
one that would have the temerity to approach
it. This story is now universally believed a*
niong Moslems. J.
• • • -Ontstdq of 'thc“curialns~ ledvmg iL narrow
I space between, is an Iron filogreo railing, which
[scrvc&tohccp the crowd front close contact -with J
[the tomb. After* ipno/proy t cra ond prostni* /
i tions, the pilgrim” i.*t made to Approach a daisft
window in the railing, through which he cot*
dies a g|impsq of the curtain. The exact place
of Mohammed’s tomb is distinguished by a
large pearl rosary, anil a peculiar ornament
suspended to the curtain, which the vulgar lx?*'
licve to be a ‘‘jewel of the jewels of Paradise." i
Lieut. Burton, however, says, to his eyes it j
j resembled the stoppers of glass, uses! lor the
I humbler sort of decanters ! Through the win-I
j ciow in the railing tho pilgrims are,expected In
j throw their contributions, and theTrcasifrcs of ■
I tho place nro kept in tho narrow passage be
tween the railing and tho'curtain. The amount
is said to be enormons.jdvbioh Liqut. Burton
doubts. No one Is permitted to enter Die pas
sage except upon the payment of an extraordi
nmystim.
What there really is 'behind the curtain.
I s ems to be a matter of great doubt. Tho Mos-
I m authorities are divided in opinion. Some'
say there is no wall bghind the curtain : others [
that it covers a square building of black stones, j
in the interior of which is the tomb, while o'h
ers say there arc three deep graves,but no traces
of tombs; and lastly, Lieut; Burton strongly \
suspects that the burial place of tho Prophet is
entirely unknown. Certainly (Jiccunuch’figlory
of the blinding light that surrounds the Pro
phet's tomb, looks like a> priestly gloss to hide
defects.
Yet all the world of Islam goes m> to pray at
the Prophet's tomb, and r millipna uclievq that
ho now lies there with blooming face mid bright
qyes, and that blond would issue from hla body
if wounded, fur no one dares to nspert that Die
holy one is millcrcd to undergo corruption.—•

A EEONTIEB SCENE.
About seven miles north of Hopkinsville,
Kentucky, is a very remarkable spot. A soli
tary post oak stands in thq barrens, in the
forks of the roads, and has obtained, universal*
ly, name of the.“Loansomc Post Oak.”—
In the early settlement of the country—more
than half a century ago. This is the only tree
to be seen for many miles around, and henco us
name. It was .then tall, green and flourishing;
it is now, bowever, if It yet stands, a leafless,
branchless, thtihdcr-rivcn, shattered trunk,
sending up its shafts as straight sa the main* i
mast of a ship of war. Superstition has long
guarded the spot. The tree is looked upon
with something like the same veneration with
which the Egj’plian regards his pyramids,
those grim sentinels of antiquity. The place
is remarkable for a very severe battle, fought
by Big linrpe and Davis. The Big Harpe and'
Little Ilarp, his brother, were the terror of the
surrounding country, in those early limes.—
Two more execrable monsters never disgraced
humanity. They lived with two women os
bad ns themselves, in a cave about twenty
miles from this tree. Blood and massacre
were their delight. It was their custom to sab
ly forth, and without any reason, to murdcK
without distinction, all the men. women and
children they could find. As the country till
ed up, the people could no longer submit to
their horrid depredations. Men and dogs col
lected, and took the pursuit. They came on
the two Hnrpcs in another valley, at about two
miles from this tree. They immediately moun
ted their horses, and dashed ofl in the direc
tion of their cavo. In going about five miles.
Davis, whoso horse was very’fleet, had left his
companions, and caught up with Big Harpe,
he having previousfy separated from his broth
er. the Little Harpe.
Here were two powerful men. armed with ri
fles. butcher knives ami tomahawks, by them
selves, far from help, and bent on death. Da
vis well knew, that if overpowered he would
ccrainly be killed, and Harpe had determined
to die, rather than to be taken alive. They
passed and repassed each other, frequently ma
king blows without effect, each dreading to
fire for fear of missing, and thereby placing
himself at the mercy of his antagonist. Final
ly the horse of Big Harpe fell, and threw his
rider, ihcn rose and galloped off. Harpe sprang
to his feet, and fired at Davi's horse, which
reared and fell. They were now not more than
ten yards apart. Harpe, whoso sagacity was
equal to his courage and viUany. kept dodging
and springing from side to side, approaching
Davis, however, by imperceptible degrees.
Davis, saw he would soon l«sc the benefit of his
gun. now fired in his turn, but without effect.
Each man now drew his knife, and they dos
ed in mortal struggle. Very soon they fell,
side by side ; but at this juncture, a large wolf
dog of Davis* came to hjs master's assistance,
and seized Harpe by the throat. This produc
ed a diversion in favor of Davis, whu immedi
ately recovered himself and stabbed IWpo to
the heart. The hideous yell which the wretch
sent up. is said still to be heard on dark nights, I
ringing widely along the heath. Some of Da
vis r friends soop joined him ; they, dug a hole
and buried Harpe at the foot of the Loansome

JO. 34;
How I Became a Gambler.
Although I belong to the despised fraternity
[ of Gamblers, I have always made it a rule io
, advise young men to shun the gambling table,
that they may avoid the rock upon which I
split; and I will now offer, through your pa
, per, some suggestions to the heads of families
, on the subject of social card-playing.
I was at least some twenty years of age, and
had lived some months In New York, before 1
ever knew the names of the ordinary playing
cards—but the importance of a thorough edu
cation in tho science of games was feoon mode
apparent to me, and from a quarter whence 1
least expected it. Boarding in Broadway, I
gradually formed an acquaintance with a num
ber of highly respectable families.
By one of these I was invited to attend a so
cial party. Tho heads of this family I knew
to be members of an evangelical, church, and
you-may judge of my surprise, when I madei
my.entry into the parlor, to behold most of the I
company, together with my pious friends,
deeply engaged at play—not the plays of inno-1
centre, but of depraved gamblers ! The father
of the family was engaged at chess, whilst tho
wife presided nt a card-table; their children
were among the whist players, and others of
the company were engaged at backgammon,
dominoes, and'checkers!
The wine circulated freely, and nil seemed
happy but myself, who in such a party was a
barbarian. I could do nothing but look on and
confess my. ignorance, or occasionally engage
in conversation with some old lady, whilst
“ The young and gny
Were nil engnged in piny. ”
Tt is needless to say that I spent a very un
happy evening—find that I resolved at once to
acquire an education so necessary to the main
tenance of a respectable standing in society !
I was not long, therefore, in mastering the
mysteries of High, Low, Jack and the Game,
mid Whist; and a slight knowledge of these
led mo to desire for further information ; until
nt lost I was an adept at & variety of games,
able to tench others, and I was a favorite part
ner wherever I went. I became exceedingly
fond of cards, and as they were Introduced in
every social circle where I was admitted, my
fondness gradually ripened into n passion,which
clings to me even to this hour.
No belter illustration of the dangers of card
playing can be given, than my own rhisiory.—
In the parlors of respectable families 1 acquired
a taste for play, which finally became an all
absorbing passion, knowing no bounds, and
rapidly hurrying me down the road to ruin,
where nil is misery, desolation and death! But
my case is not a solitary one—thousands of
gamblers have, been made in the same way
and tens of thousands have fallen before this
terrible vleo, in consequence of a taste for play
bring formed in the family circle. —National
Guard.
Two Baps Too Few.
A man somewhat advanced in life, who wag
thu other part of a strong minded lady, had
great faith in Spiritualism. His wlfo openly
proclaimed her infidelity, and with the coufcist
c'ncy which often forms part of the female char
acter, for a longtime refused to ho convinced
oflier errors through tost or experiment. At
last the persuasion of the husband induced from
her I a frrako oita of a circle at the rc.
aidenco ofa celebrated medium, upon condition,
however, that she should precede her husband.

was desired to flak any tost questions which she
might think proper. After having been inform

Tilt Wandering Jew.
The legend of a Jew ever wnndessng*nnd ne
ver dying, even from the to’
this day. has spread over mffny
tries. The accounts, however, os in all fables,*
do hot agree. Oho version is this :
sus wasted to death, oppressed by the weight
of the cross, he wished to rest himself a little
near the gate before the house of a shoemaker
named Ahnsuerts. This man, however, sprphg
forth and-thrust him away. .Jesus turned to
wards him, saying. *‘l shall rest, but thou
shall move on until my Murn. M And from
that time he has had no rest, und is obliged in
cessantly to wander abotit. Another version is
that given by Mathias Parisiensis, a monk of
the tniriecnln century : —When Jesus was led
from the tribunal of Pilatns to death, the door
keeper, named Cartnfilius, pushed trim from
behind wilh his feet, saying. “Walk on, Jesus.
• quickly, why dost (bou tarry?" Jesus looked
at him gravely, and said, “I walk on, but thou
shall tarry till I come." And this mao, still
olive, wanders from place to place in constant
dread of the wrdih to come. A third legend* 4
adds that Ibis wandering Jew falls sick every
hundred years, but recovers, and renews his
strength : hence it is that, even after so many ,
centuries, he dots not look much older than a
septuagenarian. Thus for the legends. Rol
one of the ancient authors makes even mention
of such an account. The first who
some such thing is a monk of the thirteenth
| century, when, as is known, the world waa
t filled to disgust wilh pious fictions. However,
t the story has spread far, so Hint it has become
a proverb, " He runs about like a wandering
Jew." There are not wanting persons who
assert (o have even seen the wandering Jew.—
But when their evidence is examined by tho
test of historical credibility, it is found that
some ioipostor’ had made use of this fable to
impose upon simple-minded people for some
purpose .of his own. However, the legend is
not altogether untrue; there is a wandering Jew
who roves about Europe.throughout every coun
try. This imperishable being is —prejudice
against iht Jetes,
AgQstas and Mary.
Thrilling accounts are given in the Mays
vt’le papers of the chase of two lovijers by an
enraged third parly (the pnrient,) who as wo
take up the story, was following them across
the Yuba riverr
•'Augustus saw the fury depicted in tho old
man’s face. and deeming discretion the better
part of valor, made a dead halt in the road and
concluded to surrender. Mary was frantic.
Leaping suddenly from her hftr*e, and walking
around through mud three feet deep, she gath
ered her husband by the.Kgs and dragged him

around the neck, she shouted to her father,
