FOOD FOR SUPERSTITION
Borne few weeks ago, the following
strange incident transpired in a
house en Morgan street, near
Thirteeath, in St. Louis In a cham
ber of the second story of the house,
to reach which it , was necessary to
roqunt a winding flight of stairs, lay a
girl in the last sta=ges Of consumption.

age, she had been the prey of - that'
fell diseastfor more than a year, and
at the time in question was fast ap
preaging her end. About four hours
before her death, and while Weeping,
friends - and relatives stood watching ,
beside her coueh, a beautiful, little 4
pure white bantam chicken hopped
into the room through the half open
ed door,. and - after picking a few
orumbe'framthefloor, moved towards
the bed4-,the sufferer. The watch
'fililboked op in silent awe, as the lit
tie thing hopped from floor to chair,
and from thence to the counterpane
covering the sick girl, where it re
inained mOtionless for a Moment or
two, For some minutes previous the
sufferer - had seemed to slumber; but
now ''she opened her eyes, smiled
pleasantly,-, and with one emaciated
hand ear/ssed the tiny visitant. The
chicleea -pen hopped to the chair,
tkeir..to, the doer again, and
tiebiCti#4iti stateene under the bed,.
from whence ,it was driven - out by
those in attendanbe,qest shbtild ex
cite the dying girl. In their groat
grief the family forgot the incident,
and had againseated themselves ' when
the white chicken re-appeared through
the open door, accompanied by a jet
black chicken of about the same size.
This incident terrified the watchers,
and in their superstitions fear they
whispered, "It is a- sign." The two
chickens were left unmolested; and
after fluttering about the room for a
while,
_took up a position under the
bed, where they remained until the
girl died. In the demonstrative sot-.
row occasioned by the 'dread event,
they eseaped unnoticed, noriarit known
where flay went to. Strange to say,
no one in thePeighborhood.could tell
where the chickens came from, as
neither the persons living in the house,
nor in those adjoining, had ever kept
live - chickens, and no one in the neigh
borhood oWned fowls of their descrip
tion.
THE SACRED HANDKERCHIEF.
Near the Convent of Abraham, at
Orfa, is the ancient cloister Ishanli
Kilisse, (the church with bells,) where
the handkerchief is preserved with
which the Messiah wiped his face.—
They guard it - with the greatest care,
fearing lest some king, eager to en,
rich himself with such ii treasure
should carry itaway,,ltnd accordingly
they refuse to show it. Myself hav
ing much mingled in my travels with
Greeks, I begged of the tublike their
favor to be shown the handlieirchief,
but they assured me that there 'Was
no such thing in their convent. Hav
ing taken an oath on the 'Evangelist
and on the,doctrine of Jesuit !that I
would not disCiiieliY6 - "htty onentifieex
istence of their handkerchief, I was
led to an obscure cave, on the outside
of which I left my servants. The
cave was illuminated with twelve can
dles. They produced from a cupboard
a small chest, and from the chest, a
box studded with precious stones,
which on being opened spread a per
fume of moscbus aad ambergris, and
there I beheld the notable handker
chief. It is a square of two ells, wo
ven of the .fibres of the palintree.—
After the passion, Jesus, having put
this handkerchief to his face, it re
ceived the impression of his enlight
ened countenance in so lively a man
[lei. that everybody who looks on it
believesit to be a living image, breath
ing, smiling and looking him in the
face. I have not the least doubt that
this is the true impression of Jesus'
face. Having had many conversa
tions with learned and well Informed
men, and having- seen in my travels
thousands -,of maivelo'us things pro
duced by the ingenuity-of aft, I ex
amined it, a long time, wh'ether it
might not be like so many other pic
tures in-Christian churches, the mas
ter,piece of some skilful painter; but
I convinced myself, by the evideucn
of my senses and reason, thst this
awful portrait was the trite picture of
Jesus, because even such men as my
self Who behold it, begin to tremble,
overawed by the effect of so great a
miracle, I took it with reverence, put
it to my face and bid it bail.--Eviies
WHEN - LADI.ES SHOULD BE
LOOKED AT.
A writer in the Atlantic Monthly
thus enlightens the belles of the street
concerning the inalienable rights of
men to look at their pretty faces :
“There are some 'very pretty, but un
happily very ill-bred women, who do
not understand the laws of the road
with regard to handsome faces. Na
ture and custom would no doubt,
agree in conceding to males the right
of at least two distinct lonkaiit every
pretty female countenance, without
any infraction of the rules of courte
sy, or the sentiment of respect. The
first look is neepssary to define the
person of the individual one meets,
so as to avoid her in passing. Any
unusual attraction dis Covered in a-first
glance is sufficient apology for a see.
and—not a prolonged and imperti
nent stare, but an appreciating hom
age of the eyes, such as a stranger
may inoffensively yield to a passing
image. It astnnishing how tilinr
bidly sensitive•some vulgar beauties
are to the slightelit deniionstrati©n of
this kind. When sit lady walks the

IS. THE MILLENIUM AT HA.INTD.
The Rev. Dr. Cumming, the noted
London preacher, believes that we
are upon the eVe of the'lfilleninm.
!n tile discourse recently delivered in
Leeds, he gave interpretations of pas
sages in the Book of Daniel and the
Apocalypse,'-which are novel if not
convincing. Vire quote from a brief
report in an. English paper :
He said the:year 1867 seemed to
end 6,000 years of the world's history,
and from the :earliest periods '4:inward
it had 'keen the Slinost universal be
lief that the six days of creation were
typical a:the - se - 6,000 years, and that
the -seventh day of creation, or the
Sabbath, was typical of the millenni
al rest of 1,000 years. But he would
say - that, supposing this were so, they
were at this moment 140 years short
of the 6,000 :y ears. ft - was a remark
able fact, however, that the ablest
chronologist, irrespective of all phro
phetie theories, bad shown theta milt.
take of upwards of 100 years had been
made in calculat'ing the chroneloiy of
the world, and - that the year ]'B6o of
the Christian era began not from the
year 4004 of the world's history, but
in the year 4138, and that the year
of Christ's birth was five years before
that, or in 4132. If his premises'wera
just, then they were at that moment
within seven years of the exhausta
tion of the 6,000 years; so that if 1867
was to be the termination of this econ.
omy, they'h,ad arrived at the Saturday
evening of the world's long and dreary
