The nurse—Ms Memory and Sagacity.
An aged and venerate friend, re
siding iu one of the cities on our Eastern
seaboard, a gentleman of character and
worth, mice related to me the following
anecdote of the horse; illustrating in a
remarkable manner, the sagacity and
memory of this animal.
At the close of the Revolutionary
war, when. everything was unsettled
and in disiirder, an acquaintance re
siding on the Boston road, some thirty
or forty miles from New York, lost a
valuable young :horse, stolen from his
stable in the night. Great search and
inquiry were [nude for him, but no
tidings of him could be heard, and no
trace of him could ever be discovered.
Almost six full years had now elapsed,
and the recollection even, of the lost
animal, had nearly faded from the
mind. At this period a gentleman from
the East, in the course of business was
traveling on horseback on this road, on
his way to Philadelphia. When within
four or live miles of u village on the
road, the traveler was overtaken by a
rapectable looking gentleman on horse
back, a resident of the village, return
ing home froin a short business ride.
Biding along side by side, they soon
engaged in pleasant desultory conver
sation. The gentleman was immedi
ately struck with the appearance of the
traveler's horse. And every glance of
the eye cast towards Lim, seemed to
excite an interest and curiosity to look
at him again, and to revive a recollec
tion of something he had seen before ;
and soon established ill his mind the
impression, that for all the world he
looked like the horse he had lost some
six years ag o . This soon became so
irresistibly lixed in his mind, that he
remarked to the traveler:
" You have a fine horse, sir."
" Yes," he replied, "im exceedingly
valuable and excellent animal."
" What is his age, sir
" I suppose him to be about ten
or eleven years old."
" You did not, raise him then?"
" I pureha4ed h i of a stranger, a
traveler, nearly six years since."
" Do you reside m this part of the
cot: n try ?"
" No, I reside in the flay State, and
ant on my way to Philadelphia, on busi
ness. flow far is it to New York ?"
" Well, sir, I rca, ly regret to interrupt
you, or put you to inconvenience—but I
am constrained to say, I believe you
have in your possession a horse that I
must claim."
The tc.iveler looked with surprise and
amay r ement, and replied:
" What do you mean, sir ?"
" I believe the horse you are on, in
truth, belongs to me. Five years ago
the past autumn, 0 :al untie young horse
was stolen from my stable. Great search
was tuade for lion, but no tidings of
hint ever (!anie to hand. In color, ap
pearance, and movements, it seems to
me he was the exact counterpart of the
horse you are on. It would be hardly
possible, I think, for two to be so near
alike. Hitt Iry horse was au uncom
monly intelligent, sagacious animal.
And I will make a proposition to you,
that will place the matter in such a
position that the result will be con
clusive and satisfactory, I think, to
both of us. We are now within a
mile of my residence, which is on the
road, in the centre of the village before
us. When we arrive at my house, your
horse shall be tied to the east post in
front of my door, the horse.l Stu on, to
the west post. After standing a short
time, the bridle of your horse shall be
taken off—and if Ire does not go to a
pair of bars on-the west side of the
house, and pass over, and go round to
the east side of the barn, and pull out a
pin, and open the middle stable door
and enter, I will not claim him. If he
does, I will furnish you conclusive evi
dence that fie was stolen from me just
at the conclusion of the war, about the
very tune you say you purchased him."
I ;The traveler assented to the trial.
The horse was hitched to the post as
proposed—stout-I a few minutes—the
bridle was then taken oll . —he raised his
head—pricked up his ears—looked up
the street, then down the street, several
times—then deliberately and slowly
walke,d past the house and over the
bars, and to the stable door as described,
and with his teeth and lip drew out the
pin, and opened the door and entered
into his old stall. We hardly need to
add, be was recognized by the neigh
bors, who fully attested to the facts
stated by the claimant, and that the
traveler lost his title to the horse.

Horne In the "Best Society."
The autumnal equinoctial usually
marks the dividing line of the fash
ionable world between the season at the
seaside and the season in the city.
The cold breezes that sweep up from
along the shore, and the noisy waves
that attend that periodical storm, utter
admonitions to society that it is time to
return to their winter quarters.
And the fair and fragile pack up their
summer fineries and [let the caravan in
motion towards the city. And the
complacency and indifference with
which these changes are made from the
country to Ole town, and from the
town to the country again, are among
the shining marks that tell us how in•
different the generations about us,
rising and risen, are to those sacred
sentiments about homy, which are so
often in the mouths and hearts of our
grandfathers.
Home, to the young girl of the Best
Society," is the place where she changes
her clothes and sleeps !
Home, to the young man of the ton,
is the place where he can't swear and
ruusn't smoke. We may gloss these
staring facts over with all the honied
phrases in the world, and try to beat
down accusing conscience, but the truth
still remains; there is no such place as
home in Society.
There is no family gathering beneath
a beaming mother's eye, such as Ili.-
humbly .1 oirliter and son of the middle
life knows.
Noadvising, and acceptance of advice,
between parent and child.
No looking upon the parental thresh
old as a sacred altar, within which all
the symbols of grace and purity, and
honor and chastening pleasure are to be
recognized and worshipped.
What does this comfortable looking
and fastidious multitude that we see
driving up from their cottage on the
beach, to their mansion on , the avenue—
kinow of Howe l."l'hese ancient ladies
rind gentlemen who bow and smirk and
smile, through their rheumatic paMs,
at each other and go to their gorgeous
residences and rub their poor old toes
with flannel and tickle themselves with
the idea that they have blood—which
elevates, which everybody hasn't got,
which is indispensable, which makes
life endurable.. (Jr what, of sacred
Book . , know this rattling, chattering,
wasteful group of the younger arkto
emu ; young ladies and gentlemen
who have learned that the most tangi
ble and uhquestionable right of 13booD,
is the possession of Ahoney—and who
are considerably more disposed to spend
the latter than to boast of the former.
Home after all is not built. Bricks
and mortar don't make it—and yet some
beloved woman's smile may create it.
It may not exist within the marble
manor of the •rich and great—and in
the tiny cradle that holds. the idol of
two lives it may be found. It is the
briefest spot of earth sometimes, for it
is the hallowed corner where the dar
ling of our affections is. Home is the
Eden of earth. Since it is the spot
where pure and eternal love dwells, and
when a baser passion enters it is no
longer home. The babe finds it upon a
mother's bosom. and it may be recog
nized the wide world over by the re
sponsive heating of a heart.
Of the principal of the Cassville Soldiers'

The Friendship of Brothers and Sisters.
Two of the most distinguished in the
long role of eminent astronomers are a
brother and sister—Sir William and
Caroline Herschel. The story of their
united labors—how, for thousands of
nights, side by side they sat, and watch
ed, and calculated and wrote—one
sweeping the telescopic heavens, the
other assisting and noting down the
results—how with one spirit and one
interest they grew old together, and il
lustrious together-their several achieve
ments both at home and iu observato
ries on strange shores to which they
voyaged, always associated—with what
affectionate care she trained the favor ,
ite nephew who was to burnish into
still more effulgent brightness the star
inked name of Herschel—the story of
all this is full of attractiveness, and
forms one of the warm and poetic epi
sodes iu the high old annals of science.
The union of John Aiken and his
sister Ltetitia,afterwards Mrs. Barbauld,
in life, tastes' and labors, was uncom

invigorating influence on the sympa

That evening came. in the village of
Stoke Newington they spent the last
twenty years of their lives, in that close
neighborhood which admitted of the
daily, almost hourly, interchanges of
Band and heart.
There was a friendship of great
strength between Uoethe and his sister
Cornelia. She was only a year younger
than her brother, his companion in
plays, lessons, and trials, bound to him
by the closest ties and innumerable as
sociations. While she was yet in the
cradle, he prepared dolls and amuse
ments for her, and was very jealous of
all who came between them. They
grew up in such union that, as he after
wards said, they might have been taken
for twins. The sternness of their father
drove them into the more confiding
sympathy. When he had become a
young man, and was accustomed to
make frequent excursions, he says :
"I was again drawn toward home, and
that by a magnet which attracted me
strongly at all times; it was any sister."
Cornelia had superior endowments of
mind, great force and truth of character,
but she keenly felt her want of beauty,
" a want richly compensated by
the unbounded confidence and love
borne to Ler by all her female
friends." And yet, Goethe says,
"When my connection with Gretch
en was torn asunder, my sister con
soled me the more warmly because
she felt the secret sari-faction of having
gut rid of a rival ; and 1, too, could not
but feel a great pleasure when she did
me the justice to assure me that I was
the only one who truly loved, under
stood and esteemed Ler." At twenty
Cornelia was married to one of Goethe's
intimate friends, Schlosser ; and in
four years site died. In one of her
brother's frequent allusions to her, this
striking trait is recorded: "Iler eyes
were not the finest I have ever seen,
but the deepest, behind which you ex
pected the most meaning, and when
they expressed any allectitTh, any love,
their glance was without its equal."
In Lis autobiography, . written long
after her death, he says : "As I lost this
beloved, incomprehensible being but
too early, I felt inducement enough to
picture her excellence to myself, and so
there arose within Inc, the conception
of a poetic whole in which it might
have been possible to exhibit her indi
viduality ; no other form could be
thought of for it than that of the Bich
ardsonian romance. But the tumult of
the world called me away from this
beautiful and pious design, as it has
from so many others, and nothing now
remains for me but to call up for a
moment that blessed spirit, as if by the
aid of a magic mirror."
A relation of a more absorbing charac
ter than the loregoing existed, between
Jacobi and his sister Lena. " For a
long series of years," Steffens writes,
" She lived one life with her brother,
even ennobling and exalting him by her
presence. She took part in all his
studies, all his controversies, and charg
ed the still self-communion of the lonely
man into a long conversation." There
are many accounts of her minute care•
fulness for him and unwearied devotion
to him, given by contemporaries. Some
make the picture a little comic from the
excess of coddling, but all agree as to
the unfailing and affectionate sincerity
of their attachment.
There was an uncommon friendship
between Oh ateau briand and his younger
sister Lucille, a girl of extreme beauty,
genius, spirituality and melancholy.
He says of those years : "I grew up
with my sister Lucille; our friendship
constituted the whole of our lives."
Her thoughts were all sentiments. Her
elegance, sweetness, imaginativeness
and impassioned sensibility presented
a combination of Greek and German
genius." " Our principal recreation
consisted in.walking, side by side, ou
the great Mall, in the spring on a car
pet of primroses, in autumn ou beds of
withered foliage, in winter on a cover-
ingof snow. .Vounglike the primroses,
sad like the dry leaves, and pure as the
new fallen snow, there was a harmony
between our recreations and ourselves.''
Lucille Lint persuaded her brother to
write. After he says : "We undertook
works in common ; we passed days in
!Tinton! consultation in communicating,
to each other what we had done, r.:1 , 1
what we proposed to d 6." The lamen
tation he breathed over her grave when
she died is one of the most affecting
passages in his long autobiography.
Ernst and Charlotte Schleirmacher
were a choice and ever faithful pair of
friends. The life and letters of the
great preacher, recently published, re•
veal the full beauty and importance of
this relation. Their correspondence is
equally filled with the manifestations of
varied intlligence and of congenial feel
ing. Sharing all their experience in
affectionate intercourse, or in full and
cordial letters, they appeared thus to
find their pleasures heightened, their
perplexities cleared, their trials allevia
ted. To this noble divine, so celebrated
for his profound scholarship, his enthu
siastic piety, his exalted, almost roman
tic sensibility, and his heroic aime,
Charlotte was knit by ailinites,of char
acter and life even more closely than by
those of blood and name.
Two Thousand Dollars Damages for Cut
ttng off a Lock of Italr.
The guardian of a little girl in Buffalo
has brought suit against a woman for
cutting off two large black curls from
the girl's head and converting the same
to her own use. Damages have been
laid at .52,000. The girl is a sprightly
little child, and has a head full of long
black curls which are envied by both
young and old of her sex. The offense
was committed on the 14th of August
last, and a few days afterward the
woman was tried for assault and bat
tery for the same offense, in the Police
Court, and discharged, the justice hold
ing that the evidence was such as to
preclude an assault and battery, and
the proper redress would be civil dam
ages. The suit will prove highly inter
esting and novel. If the offense is as
charged in the domplaint, it is of a
nature that requires redress. How a
jury of old bachelors would decide is a
question. But a jury composed of
married men, whose hearts are centered
on their fair daughters, would be severe
in their verdict.
General Mower has modified the jury
order in Texas, Bo as to allow of juries be

Honor the Strongest Bond
Two centuries ago itcwas thought an
insult in the Highlands of Scotland to
ask a note from a debtor. It was con
sidered the same as saying, "I doubt
your honor." If parties had small busi
ness matters to transact together, they
stepped out into opek k air, fixed their
eyes upon the heavens and each re
peated his obligation with no mortal
witness. A mark was then carved in
some rock or tree near by to be a re
membrance of the compact. Such a
thing as a breach of contract, we are
told, was then very rarely met with, so
highly did the people regard their
honor, and so truly did they fear Him
beneath whose eye they performed such
acts.
When the march of improvement
brought the new mode of doing business,
they were often pained by these inno
vations. An anecdote is handed down
of a farmer who had been to the Low
lands and learned worldly wisdom. On
returning to the native parish he had
need of a sum of money, and made bold
to ask a loan of a gentleman of means,
named Stewart. This was cheerfully
granted, and Mr. Stewart counted out
the gold on his library table. This done,
the farmer took a pen and wrote a re
ceipt, and offered it to the gentleman.
" What is this, man P cried Mr.
Stewart, stern:y eyeing the slip of paper.
"It is a receipt, sir, binding me to
give ye back yer gold at the riglittirue,"
replied Sandy.
Blinding ge I Well, my man, if ye
canna trust yerBclf I'm sure I'll nu trust
ye! Ye canna ha' my gold!" and gath
ering it up, he put it back in his desk
and turned his key on it.
"But, sir, I might dle," replied the
canny Scotchman, bringing up au argil.
merit in favor of his new wisdom, " and
my sous might refuse it , to ye. But this
bit o' paper wad compel them."
" Compel them to sustain a dead
father's honor!" cried the high minded
Scot. " They'll need compelling to do
right if this is the road yer leading
them; I'll neither trust ye nor them.
Ye can gang elsewhere for money ! But
ye'll find none in this parish that'll put
more faith in a bit o' paper than in a
neighbor's word o' honor and his fear
o' God!"
Romance Strange Vicissitudes in the
Life of a British obleman'A
From toe Decatur (Illinois) Magnet, sett. 21.;
Most, if not nearly all, of our citizens
have noticed a dissipated vehicle, some
what resembling a circus wagon, lo
cated on a vacant lot on North Main
street, in which resided an old and
poverty-stricken man. Sometime in
the spring the wagon, propelled by a
couple of attenuated horses, arrived in
this city, and the old man pitched
his tent in the place mentioned, where,
through the charity of the owners, he
has since been permitted to dwell.
Here he has lived ever since, eking out
an existence by the donations of Our
benevolent citizens, he having disposed
of the horses for a small sum.
Yesterday, F. S. Murphy, EN., one
of our prominent lawyers, received a
rail ; . roin a Scotch gentleman named
McGregor, who, after a long and weary
search, had found the individual named
we have thus described, and whom he
identities as the youngest son of the
late Earl of Clanricarde, one .of the
wealthiest and most influential noble
men in Scotland. The story related by
Mr. McGregor is almost marvelous in
its details, and would furnish the ma
terials for a first-class three-volume
novel.
_ .
Some forty years since, the poor old
luau who has attracted the compassion
of our citizens was a dashing and
stylish officer in the Life Guards, be
comiug, enamored of a beautiful girl of
humble origin, he married her in oppo
sition to the commands of his proud
father and remonstances of his equally
proud elder brother. Being disinherited
and thrown upon the world, he sold his
commission, and with his wife came to
this country. After five years of vicis
situdes upon a rugged farm in the
Western wilds, his wife died, and broke
in spirit and sore in heart, he relin
quished his claim and roamed without
aid or purpose over the country. During
the Mexican war he enlisted as s pri
vate soldier, and served until the close
of hostilities. Since then he lies been
the companion of roving Indians;
a deck-hand on steamboats, a ped
dler, &e., until his arrixal in this
city. By the death of his elder brother,
which occurred about four months since,
lie has become the possessor of estates
to the value of three thousand pounds
per annum. His good fortune—alas!—
has come too late; prostrate in mind
and enfeebled in body, he can not real
ize, nor can he long enjoy the princely
fortune to which lie has fallen heir.
Yesterday evening, in care of Mr. Mc-
Uregor, he embarked on the eastern
train, rn mule for his lordly mansion,
in Iveruess, Scotland. Fortune smiled
too late his early love sleeps by La
Belle RiViCre, and he lives a poor wreck
of his former self—too imbecile to heed
the frowns or smiles of fortune. - Reader,
is not truth far stranger than fiction ?
Events occur every day that outrival
the wildest dreams of the poet or ro
mancist.
The Body of Maximilian
A correspondent of the Tribune, who
has been to Queretaro, and there saw
the body of Maximilian, writes:
I found the coffin containing the re
mains, iu a room in the second story of
the house occupied by hr. Don :quints
Dedo. A soldier stood guard at the
door, ready to give admittance to all
who might desire to look at the body,
which willingness was, in our case,
somewhat accelerated by the influence
of a few reals. The apartment bore the
appearance of having once been used
for a storeroom, and was both very
dark and extremely filthy. The coffin
stood in the centre of the room, resting
on a couple of rude wood benches. It.
+s
ts covert- with black cloth, adorned
with a cheap quality of gold lace, the
top of which has a false cover or lid,
opening which case revealed three
glasses, through which the silent form
.of the ill fated Austrian was shown by
the aid of a penny tallow candie
kept by the soldier for visitors' use.
The Emperor was dressed in a suit
composed of a blue coat, with a row of
brass buttons in front, dark blue pants,
and heavy cavalry boots. His hands
were covered with apair of white gloves,
very much soiled. His mouth and eyes
were partially open, plainly showing
his teeth and the color of his eyes. His
beard is quite gone, as well as the great
er part of his hair, which lam informed
has been cut off by Dr. Lisso, who had
charge of the embalmeut, and sold it,
he receiving as high as five ounces—sBo
—for small locks of the same. The body
of the Emperor remained at Lisso's house
until last week, when it was removed
to its present locution, during which
time he made use of it as a means of
speculation. He also disposed of what
ever effects belonging to Maximilian he
could obtain, charging large sums for
small pieces of his blood-stained gar
ments, which he cut up and sold. It is
also alleged that he has even removed
a small portion of the skull, for which
he obtained a large sum, replacing it
with wood. I cannot vouch for this,
but it has general belief here. The doc
tor affirms that the government has
failed to pay him his bill for the embal
merit of some 540,000, and declares his
intention of making his money the
surest way possible.
Couldn't Tell
A negro witness was examined in the
Mayor's court, to prove the identity of
a white man, the other day :
Mayor.—" Did you see the man ?"
"Yes, sar, I seed him."
"Was he a white man ?"
"Don't know sar."
"Do you tell me you saw the man,
and can't say whether he was white or
black?"
"Yes, sar, I seed him, but dere's so
many white folks callin' demselves Dig
gers round here I can't tell one from
t'oder !"
Witness dismissed—explanation sat

LANCASTER PA WEDNESDAY MORNING OCTOBER 9 1867
Autumn Days
When Autumn days come, Na ure,
like a retired merchant, changes its
manner from thrift and bustling indus
try to languid leisure and to ostentatious
luxury. The sun rises later and sets
earlier than when it had all the Sum
mer's crops on hand, and was playing
universal husbandman. There is no
nest-building now, and no bird singing
—which is a purely domestic arrange
ment, designed, on the bird's part, to
keep peace in the family while the
children are being raised, and laid aside
as soon as the young birds are off their
hand•. Mornings come fleeced in mists,
which hang over streams and low, moist
places. The sun plays with them, but
they perish in his arms. A few belated
flowers yet keep watch, but chiefly the
asters, which fringe the fields, star the
edges of forests, and, like a late corner
at a feast, seem bent upon making up
for lost time. At night, crickets
and katy-dids scrape their shrill viols,
and fill the air with stridulous music.
Over all the shrinking fields, the trees
lift up their gorgeous foliage, and, like
those who wait for the marriage bell
and the bridegroom, they shine out in
glorious apparel. The hills, forest-clad,
are become the Lord's younger eons,
and, like Joseph, they are dressed in a
coat of many colors. October days,
short between horizons, reach higher
into the vault than any days of the
wear ; and through them the season
seems to look with softened sadness, as
one who, in the calm of age, meditates
on all the mistakes of his past life, and
solemnly thinks upon the advancing
future. Along the fence rows, where
seeds and late berries may be found,
birds hop silently, as if ashamed to be
seen. Soon they will change their soli
tary ways and collect in flocks. To-day,
the fields will swarm with them . to
morrow, there will not be one left, and
they will be picking their food many
degrees of latitude South.
Plump Women
York Gazette concludes a
Um N, ev,
plea for "plump women" as follows:
But whatever education our girls have,
let us have less or it. American girls
are notorious for their pallor and frailty
211111 Len 1( . 11 OS to wither and lose their
charms at an early age. This country
has no greater want at the present
time than of plump girls and plump
women. Let us have them .plump
and healthy, whether they know
anything or not. We can teach their
children what they don't know if
necessary ; by all means let us have
rosy, blossoming, solid women. The
Pacific railroad is not half so important
to the prosperity of this country as the
aggregate avoirdupois of its women
The female sex of America ought to
weigh at least half as much again as it
does.

WuRLD, as It is the sore link between the
Pacific Coaat and the Great Interior Basin
Over WOlell the Immense Overland travel rutin
pass, and the
Principal Portion of she Main Stem Line
between the Two Ocean,.
Its line extends from Sacramento, on the
tidal waters of the Pacitic, eastward across the
richest and most populous psrtsot t.altfornia,
Nevada and Utah, contiguous to all the great
Mining Regions of the Far West, and will meet
and connect, with the roads now building east
of tbe Rocky Mountains. Aboutloo mites are
now built, equipped and in running operation
to the summit of the Sierra Nevada. Wltuint
a few days 35 miles, sow graded, will be added,
and the track carried entirely across the moun
tains to a point in the Lireat. Salt I ake
whence further program will be easy and rapid.
Iron, materials and equipment are ready at,
band for 300 miles of road, and 10,000 men
are employed in the constructio,.

actual, legitimate traffic of the road, with its
terminus In the mountains, and w thionly the
normal ratio of government transportation,
and is exclusive of the materials carried for the
further extension of the road.
The Company's lutere.st liabilities during the
:aloe leriod were less than $125,000.
Add to this an ever-expanding through traffic
nod the proportions of the future badness be
come immense.
The Comp-ny are authorized to continue
their line eastward until it shall meet and con

Rocky Mountain ranges. Assuming that they
will build and control half the entire distance
between San Francisco and the Missouri river,
as now seems probable, the United States will
have invested In the completions of 865 tulles
