JonnY DIMKOPP atstrtianetat,s. A PROCLAMATION OF AMNESTY TO MY "ERRING SISTERS," The following s from the Bangor Democrat, is a good "take elf." it displays full as much sound sense, and a great deal more wit, that Lin coln's proclamation of "amnesty,P and really echoes Lincolnism in much better manner than Lincoln can do it himself Whereas, A dozen of my wayward "Sisters" did, on.a certain day, elope from'---my—boardiirg-- honetw-w ;at- n worthless scamp named Southern Con fed eracy, (so-called,) without cause or provdcation, having sot up house keeping for themselves in a rickety shanty, situated south 'of old home stead ; and WEIEREAS This shanty was built on my land, which I inherited from my old Puritan Father; and WiIEREAS, The aforesaid "Sisters" hairs 4ecome greatly reduced in cir cumstances insomuch as-to be in want of certain -necessaries, such as tea, tiacnn and dimity ; and WHEREAP, The rebellious spirit of a portion of these "Sisters," has be come subdued, they having repeated of their transgressions and become converted to. the trite Abrahamic faith • • Therefore I, in the aweetness of my temper, and in the magnanimity of my generous nature, do ordain, pro mulgate, set forth and let fly the con ditions upon which they' may be re ceived again into my_bosom. First—These runaway females, above mentioned, arc required to pack up their ear rings, bosom pins, side combs, perfume bottles, cups and saucers, candle moulds and all other ornaments usually denomina ted 'bouse keeping,". and deliVer the same within thirty - day at Fortress Monroe in the care of Major General Butler, who has a peculiar knack for the safe keeping of other people's property. Second—Every Sister owning cer tain chattels called negroes, toes, quadroons or other property, of a mixed or colored nature, are re quired to paste over their two eyes, a postalaurreney, of a denomination not less than five cents, and in such . a manner as to prevent them from ever. finding their way back, and cause them to be delivered, without delay, at the "Emancipation Bureau," soon to be erected in Washington, and of which Joshua R. Giddings, Wendell Phillips and Parker Pillsbury are to be the Grand Yahoes, and Susan B. Anthony, Lucretia Mott and Mrs. Rose, the Vestal Virgins. 'ln the meantime, while this edifice is being constructed, the said negroes will oc cupy the moose-yard, formerly called- Maryland, but which of late, by di rection of the President, has been . humanely converted into a pasture suitable for this purpose. Third—As the said "Sisters," after they return will have no further use for the house• and lot - where they' have been living, they ,are hereby or dered to bring along with them a quitclaim deed of the same, which: will' be taken in part payment for their board and other expenses dur ing their elopage. The above terms having been com plied with, the following oath or af firmation, if subscribed to, Will seal the restoration faless I happen to lit . • al:tango •my 1 3 4 ipc.. gerbaps .1 may conclude to' de qtrti otharl Way,' t and .hencal no l l'Si ' s er" be ob tOtthts-tpp. Foitm. • . , ' .. eitirik Sister "do ' hereby affirm and declare; that I will supportjer. President of the 'United States, my benefactor Dr. 'Faust, during his nat ural life. That: I will support all 'his proclamations h i eth;phat'hiid present —those rna'de lett' yeti). 'ind these to be made next . year. 'That , ' stip. port all his utterances =whether he utters them 'or";n4Ot4alt his winks, blinks, grimaces, anecdotes, contor tions conundrums, and the small pox. And; I further declare tbat, in case the said decter should . , . decline the honor, of which there is ,no immedi ate prospect will support his ion "Bobby" (so.called) with the same de votion as in the case of, the sire. And I further, declare that,' in case I should ever find:myself in doubt as how to act in any ,premises whatev er, I will not rely upon my own judgment, or be governed by the dic tates of my own conscience, buts.will apply. im thediat'aly to the aforesaid Anthony, Mott and Rose, or to their spiritual adviser Horace Greeley, to instruct me in the way. of my duty. P. S.—l deem it, .proper to state that I have not seen AV andel' 'Phillips for some time and therefore .have not told him that th,e issuing of this proclamation "is the most foolish - act of my life." The exceptions to theabo - ve am nesty, are the rascals mho enticed away my erring Siuters.:-.WhO"'will be daily chastised when,. catch them, unless I change my mind. THE TIGERS OF SINGAPORE-THEIR AP PETITE FOR ,HUMAN FLESH. We quote from Commodore Perry's entertaining "Expedition, to Japan" the following page, relatite to the in formation gained by that command er during his stoppage at. Singapore at the end of the Malacca Straits, on the subject of Malay tigers—merely re marking that it was in 1853, and that since that time the tigers have become much more numerous and de structive than ever, the evil reaching such an extent about eighteen months since, that general and or ganized action Was taken to destroy as many as possible of these pests; for the preservation of the _people : 'The native animals are generally the same as those of the adjacent peninsula, from which many of them migrate. The tigers especially en tertain a great partiality for Singa pore, and resort 'there in great num hers by swimming across the strait, which separates the main land from the island. These are the genuine animals, which have no hesitation in pouncing upon a passing; traveller, or , snatching-up„and„..m io aking a: `meal ,of apratifiTifarnifte Ohan:fan or native who may happen to he in the jungle, busy in cutting wood, clearing land for the rice plantations, or otherwise occupied. It was stated on the best authority, that not a day passes with out the destruction of . one human be ing, at Least, by those ferocious beasts., The Commodore was at first some what disposed to be incredulous of this statement, but as the acting gov ernor and commander-of the' forces - both confirmed it, he .cOeld no, longer hesitate to accept it 'as truth. lie was told by them that so much of an every day occurrence was this fatality, that many of the cases-- were not re ported, in order to - avoid, the' trouble and expense of - a coroner's inquest, which the laws require. Death by tiger;showever f is a verdict that might be rendered' daily were the legal for- malities complied With. ' It is said, and probably vvitb . truth that the tiger, after lie has once test-. ed of human ilesh, becomes so fond'of. it that he prefers its flavor to that of his ordinary venison - or wild bore, and will make every effort to -obtain a supply of his favorite food. It is this intense longing for human' flesh which mabeslhe tiger so- very dan gerous to the inhabitants of Singa pore, especially to the poor Malay or Chinese who may he obliged to -ex pose himself in the' jungle apd the forest It was said, too,-that the awl mai showed decided preference for,a Chinaman. "Nor do these stories of the tiger stem very wonderful, when the fact is well established, that those savages who are addicted to cannibalism be come passionately fond of their horri bly unnatural food. There is a tribe of Malays, cafle,4l Buttes, who, like their fellow Malay tigers, are said by Sir Stamford Raffles to eat one ano ther, and to prefer such food lo any other. Nor ere they to be classed entirely among barbarians, for these Battas can read and write,, and have codes of laws of great antiquity; and yet, according to the authority just named, not less than from sixty to a hundred Battas are eaten annually, even during time of peace. "In addition to the tigers, there are deer and wild boars found upon the island, and several varieties of smaller animals, the monkey, the wild hog or peeary, the porcupine and the Sloth. Birds abound, and among them <are some of great beauty." REVELATION OF SPIRITUALISM IN A DREAM, ' Who was the first Abolitionist The Devil. What did he wish to abolish?_ Peace and happiness.

January - WHOLE - FAMILI'BURNTITUTINDTK ZEN TO DEATH. By a passenger who arrived here on the Central Railroad last night, from the west, we learn of one of the most fearful and heart rending affairs that has ever occurred in this section of the country, viz : That a family of seven' persons were frozen to death during the cold weather on Friday last. About thirty Miles from the boundary line betweed 'Michigan and Indiana, in the lajter State, about midway between' ‘TenterVille and Crown Point, lived a German with his wife and five children, named liratzer. The olffest was a boy of seven years of age, the next boy of five, and three girls, all of less than the boys, the youngest but an in. rant. The country where the family re sided,is very rolling, dind the. snow had drfted into the hollows, making the roads almost, if not= wholly, im passable for OM) pedestrians. The driver of the stage coach com ing from Crovvii Point to Lake, via Centerville, found that, Krutzer's dwelling had been burned to the ground, it its:supposed the night pre viously, but none of the family were to be seen. About a mile further on, he was horrified to find the father and two boys frozen to death. The boys were in the father's arms, and it, is supposed that he, had fallen with them after having been so far affected with the frost as not to be able to proceed. The 'three corpses were placed in the stage, but before it had, proceeded more than a quarter of ,a Mile on its destination, the body of the oldest girl was found in, a snow drift, with a shawl wrapped closely around it where it bad doubtless been deposi ted by its weary mother, while yet alive, in the hope that, s,omo chance traveller might, rescue it from an, int, pending fate. . This corpse, too, .was placed in the coach, and again it started on its way, only to find, after traveling a short distance, the lifeless remains of the mother, with th,e two youngest, chil dren. The body of, the mother was standing erect in ,a snow. drift, with the children in her, arms, tbe young est being at the breast. The seven lifeless bodies were con. veyed to Centerville by the driver of the, stage, at which, place they were decently interred ; by the, inhabi tants. This is eertainly the most appalling disaster that has ever heen our duty to record, add the , bare recital of the facts could,nat fail to bring a shudder even to, a, heart of stone:. . ; ,,Aa vbOte family ushered in the presence of their Creator, and none to tell the tale of suffering. SOMNAMBULISM: A writer in, the .Home Journal relates., the following remarkable case,:' .taken from the French -Encyclopedia : ! Kitilt:itis.the;mest itftele'itiag Caiei on .

The young' ecclesiastic, when the WHOLE NO. 762 prelate was at the same college, used to rise every' night, and write out either ser rricins Or pieces of music.-LTo study his condition, the , hishop betook himself sev era Imight,s, consecutively, tb the chamber of the youngrman, where he. made the following observations :—This young Clergyman used to rise, take paper, and begin to write.=-Before writing malty, he would takel:a . stick and rule the lines. He, wrote, the notes with corresponding words, both with the utmost accuracy; or when, by chance, he had written the words" too wide, he altered them. After completing a sermon, he would read it aloud, 'front beginning to end: If any passage displeased.him he erased • it, and wrote the amended passage correctly over the other. On one oceaision, in or der to ascertain whetherhe used his eyes, the bishop interposed a sheet of paste board between his face - and the writing. The sleeper took not the least notice, but went ~ oni writing, as before. The limita tions of his perceptions to what he was thinking about Were very curious. A piece of aniseed cake, that he had sought for he ate approvingly, but when, On another occasion, a piece of the same cake was put into his mouth, he spat it out. It is to be observed that he always knew when his Fen had ink in it; and if they aireitly changed his paper when he was writing, he knew it ; if:the sheet substitu ted was of a different size from the . form er, and in that case he appeared embar rassed. But if the fresh sheet of paper, which was substituted for that written on, was exactly of the same size with it, he appeared not to be aware of the change ; and, he would continue to read off his composition from the blank sheet of pa per as fluently as when the manuscript lay before him ; slaY, more he would con tinue his corrections, and introduce an amended passage, writing it upon the pre. cise place in the blank sheet corresponding with that which it would have occupied on the already written. page. Such are the teats of somnambulism l The eccle siastic, indeed, seems at first to, have seen through a"sheet of paste board ; but the concluding fact in his case shows that he really used his preception only to identify_ the'size and place of the sheet of paper. His writing upon it was the mechanical transcript of an act of mental penmanship. The corrections fell into the right places upon the paper, owing to the fidelity with which he retained the mental picture, his attention being exclusively concentrated on that one operation." NOT SO DRUNK AS HE THOUGHT. One evening, as I was passing the Union Theatre, I saw placarded that the eminent tragedian, McKean Bu : °benzin, would appear in tie celebra. teltcharacter of Giles Over. reachZ.,le i tlbe New' 0 -••. walked Wa y n, and after listening a few moments to the in spiring strains of the orchestra, the tragedian appeared before the cur tain, apologizing for the sudden ill ness of one of the principal actors, and, with the consent at the audi. eine, substituting.. "the great play of Othello." Just as the curtain was rising, I saw a rough looking -fellow sloWly navigating his uncertain way down the aisle, evidently pretty drunk, but getting safely seated di rectly in front of me; be began to pore over the programme which I had discarded, thinking, under the change of affairs, that, it would be of little use to me. Throughout the first act, while "Old Buck" was stamping about and performing with his- usual 'vigor of voice 'and action, I saw my tipsy neighbor looking alternately at his bill and the stage, as though he found some difficulty in reconciling the course of events ; but whatever he thought he said nothing till the cur tain had descended, then turning a round and grasping the back of the seat to steady himself, he asked, in a very hoarse. beaky whisper, which was "Sir Giles 7" pronouncing the G hard. Although being somewhat amused, I answered him soberly : "Lte is playing Othello, ; not Sir Giles." He looked a little cOnfased'at first, then straightened up and exclaim ed : • • . • "Well, then, I ain't so drunk as I thought I was."

The .palms of ilia' hands and the soles of his feet are as white as they ever were. His health is remarkably good ; it never was bet ter. Within the past month a-deeper shade bus been added to the, skin.— The attention of several members of the faculty has been called to the af fair ; Professor Johnson,of the School' of Medicine, and Ors. Marks, Penny packer and Gibson have made a criti cal examination of the skin, but the cause is : beyond tbe power of their fertile examinations or learned expe. rienee. - • Mr. Brest himself was -as anxious to know the cause as any of the med ical gentlemen, and he submitted himself to some experiments. A . small portion of the cuticle or scurf skin -was removed without pain or ineonvenience to the subject of the op eration. This membrane was ex. ceedingly pullucid, and not at all af fected with discoloration. The small portion of blood that came from these parts was beautifully crimson ; and the same that was drawn from a vein on his left arm. The most powerful microscopes were brought into requisi tion, but their aid brought no relief to the searching minds of the doctors. They were astounded then, and still remain in the same predieament.— Mr. Brest bears his changes of color with remarkable philosophy, and e ven jokes about it. He consoles him self with the thought that he has still a split in the end of his .

A NAUTICAL Tom—Some years ago, the schooner • Sally Ann' under com mand of one Capt Spooner, was beating up the Connecticut'river. Mr. Comstock, the mate, was at his .station foreword.

So aft he goes to the cap; tain, and with his hat cocked on one side,' says: 'Cap's Spooner, you're gettin' leetle too close to them flats; hadn't yon better go about?'

RENEGADES.-Wp never knew a rene gade from the Democr.atie party but what,claimed that 'their principles were the same as ever, and that the -party had abandoned i the principles Tf. the party, and had gone,over to the opposition.

After looking about into strange "lodges" here and there, -the_ ,into: an exclaimed in dismay, "Nun lost l" but • recovering himself and unwilling to ad:- knowledge such short sightedness, con: - tinned, drawing himself up : "No—la-_ jin no lost—wigwam lost—(and striking, his breast) Injin here !" So with the wandering Demograts— they are unwilling to acknowledge They have strayed from the party—it is thel party that is lost. The bolter says, , "No,; I'm no bolter, it is the party that has bol ted. I'm here," (and that's right in the centre of the Abolition camp.) ORIGIN OF "SEEING THE ELEPHANT."
