The height from which the hogshead fell was some s'a feet, ftnd it ended about so that one of the heads struck him. A wild though smothered yell came up from that hold, and the other darkies, turning pale as fidelity to their parents would permit, rushed down to carry up the mangled re mains of their comrade. Imagine their consternation tipob streing tire hogshead standing upright and the frightened and somewhat lacerated countenance of "this ne gro protruding through the upper beadl— His adamantine cranium had driven through both heads of the hogshead without doing material injury, more than a few cuts and a bad.

BILEAK IN THE PESNSYLVANIA CANAL-A serious break occurred in the Pennsylvania Canal, just below Bainbridge, on Wednes day morning, about 50 feet of the tow-path and bottom of the canal being washed into the river. The able Superintendent of the canal, Mr. Wyerman, put a strong force to work, and the d'artiage with probably be re paieed by Aonday nest. On the day of the brealt the floating populat?on of our town was advised that work on the repairs was to be had at twenty cents an hour, st.nd large number of bands left this place and other towns in the neighborhood for thejob. This promptness is in marked contrast to the dilatory usagn of the State subordinates, when they governed the canal; under their old time management two weeks would hare been required to complete the neces-ary re pairs of a break like the present one.

But boys will be boys, you know 'Squire!) The worthy ma gistrate got up his black crape expression of countenance, and stepped to the door, where the unfortunate victim of the subtile element was pointed out to him by an at tending garcon. The body, apparently that of a Greek voyagezer, was extended at full length in a wagon, flanked on one side bye bandanna hand-trunk, and on the other by an empty flask, of quart capacity. The 'Squire viewed the remains and pronounced them void of life, but suggested to Richard that therenrast be a mistake as to the man ner of death: "Surely, Richard, we have had no lightning with the late storm!" "Plenty, 'Sq'tfite, plenty! and this was the genuine 'Jersey' article," was Richard's quiet reply.

BURCLARY,—On Tuesday morning, 27th the - sexton of the Episcopal Church gave inforutation at the office of Esquire Bruner, of the discovery of a lot of mer chandize in the cellar of the church, sup posed to bare been stolen. On examination it proved to be a box of tobacco and half sack of coffee, which had been stolen from the warehouse of Messrs. Fry Sc Bagman. The thief had probably carried them thus for on his way to thebiil, and secrete' them in the cellar thinking they would be undiscovered there, if' removed before Sunda -7. Fortunately the sexton had occasion to open the cellar on Tuesday morning, and was rather astonish ed to find tho ehurch made a receptacle for plunder. The thief has nut been detected.

Serious Readiug THE Jons SMITI(3.--The dilemmas that beset a sheriff sometimes furnish no small amount of amusement. The subjoined is an exact coil' (says the Richmond En quirer) of a return made by the sheriff of one of our counties ti a process seat to him for execution DEAR SIR:—You have sent nie it summons in Chancery, styled Wharton & Co., vs. Colvin's Executors, commanding me to sum mon John Smith to appear, &.). Now will you be kind enongh to let me know on whi , ....dt John Smith to execute this process; for we have many of them in this county? There is John, surnamed the B tptist, called after his religion. There is Farmer John; Saddler John, and Carpenter John, called after their occupations. There is talking John, a man of great volubility of words. There is Bumble John, very old, said when a boy to hare boon greet at takingbee nests, when that was the euphoneous title of that insect now called the humble bee. There is John hard, twenty-sixth son, no doubt so called from the old styled pronunciation of the last letter of the alphabet. Then, there i 3 Irish John, who is uncharitably supposed not to have had that name when be left the Emerald Isle, and John of Pat mos, remarkable for having had many vis ions. This John particularly protests against the service of your process on him, saying his is a mission of peace and not of strife, and that his name must not be Imixed up with a lawsuit. And, lastly, there is John the Grafter, who can graft . peacock feathers on a rumpless rooster's tail. Our clerks know these Johns by their va rious titles, and g,enrally so designate them in any process they may issue. Will you, I repeat, let me kuow which one of our John Smith's your process is intended for, and it eltall be duly executed? Your's truly. ..An amusing story, says a Toledo, Ohio, correspondent of the Knickerbocker, is told of the acute sense of smell of a tobac conist of our city. lie, together with his clerk, was examining some tobacca submit ted for hie inspection. After carefully in haling the flavor by three or four protracted lie exclaimed to his clerk: "John, can't you smell old leather in the tobacco?" John presented it to his olfaetories, and "thought be could." The "chief" then smelled again, and declared that he could also detect a very slight flavor of maple sugar. The last aroma John pronouncel beyond his powers. Samples of leaf tobac co, you know, aro taken from each end of the hogshead, and from the centre. The samples examined were from the ends. Oa taking a sample from the middle, there was found an old boot heel, full of maple pegs!

Vir-Any one who has lived in Cincinnati (writes Ernds) for ten or fifteen years, will remember E., the tailor, oneof the oldest and best of his craft, as well as one of the jolliest, always as ready to take a juke as to give one.

IttarA. good joke is told of Beecher and Park Benjamin, though it is probably not true. On one of their lecturing expedi tions, they were riding in the same railway ear. Getting into conversation about preaching, Beechor was so courteous as to ask him to come to Brooklyn, some sabbath morning, and hear him. "I do not know where your meeting house is," said Benja men; "bow shall I find it?" "Oh," replied Beecher, "all you have to do is to come over ono of the ferries, and follow the crowd." "I would come," continued Benjamin, "but for one reason." "Ah! what is that?" ask ed Beecher. ''Because," said Benjamin, with a merry look out of his eyes, "I make it an invariable rule never to go to any place of amusement on Sunday." A FEW WORDS ABOUT HIRED GIRLS. Taylor, of the Chicago Journal, has the fol lowing: But as it now is, what a dignity invests "our hired girl." She is the calico "tie that binds two willing hearts in one," and be she blessed forever! Think that the red armed barbarian whole rules the roast and the house together, when she smooths your inert bosom, is freeing your fleshly breast from care, and ironing out a wrinkle from the brow, remember, when, of frosty morn• ings, she lights a Bra whereby you make your toilet, that by the same sign, she is re plenishing the flame of love; and the Blest of fancies will transform her into a p: iestess, who keeps forever burning the ethereal spark of domestic affection! Ilad Adam been a modern, there would have been "a hired girl" in Puradise to "raise Cain" and look after the little Abel. She would hare hung the dishcloth on the roses that Eve in tears bent over, that never would "in other gardens grow," and tear the fig aprons all to pieces washing days. Ad am must bring water from the Euphrates, for her use, before he went to "lop the wan ton growth" of clustering vines; she must aft between the gardener and his wife at dinner; if Angel visitants, sometime, on bu siness bound, did call, till the stars were filled to light them home to Ifeaven, she leaves the work and smoothes her hair, and entertains the stranger quite aware; and by and by, old Adam—easy soult—and his fair wife would live with Bridget, and Bridget would be the occupant of Eden.
