NY WORSHIP. •
BY ALICE CABBY
I hare no seasons and no times
To think of heaven—sometimes at night
go up on a stair of rhymes
And find the journey very bright:
And for some accidental good •
Wrought by me i saints have near me stood
I do nut think my heart is hard
Beyond the common heart of men,
And vet sometimes the best award
Smites on it like a stone; and then
A sunbeam that may careless stray
In at my window, makes me pray
The flower I've chanced on in some,nook,
• Giving its wild heart to, the — bee,
Has taught me meekness like a 'book
Of written preaching; and to see
- . A cornfield ripe, an orchard . red,
- Has made me bow in shame, my head.
• Of stated rite and formula,
•A formal use the meaning wears;
. When mostly in Clod's works I see
And feel his 'love, I make my prayers,—,
And by the peace that comes, I know
My worship is accepted so.

HERE SHE GOES, THERE SHE GOES.
The folloWing amusing and well told story
was published in one' of the city, papers of
Gotham,nbout a dozen years ago. It occasion
ed at the time a good deal of merriment :
Not long since, two stylish-looking persons
put up for the night in the upper part of the
city. On the morrow, after ordering their
bill, they sent for the landlord, who was not
long in waiting,on his aristocratic guests.
"I wish tp pprc.l2,;_kse that old clock up stairs ;
will you sell it - ?" asked the elder, while the
younger lit - cigar, and cast his eyes over the
columns of a newspaper which lay upon -the
table. The landlord, who had set no great
value upon the clock, except •as an - heir-loom,
began to suspect that it might possess the-vir
tues of Martin Ileywood's chair,. and be Milled
with coin ; and almost involuntarily, the three
ascended to the room which contained it.
"The fact is," said the elder, "I once won
twenty pounds with a clock like that.
"Twenty rionnds !" ejaculated. the landlord.
"Yes ! you see there was one like it in a room
down in Essex, and a fellow bet me he could
keep his fore-finger swinging with the pendu
lum for an hour only saying, 'Here she goes,
there she goes.' . He couldn't do it. I Walked
the money out of him in no time."
"You did"! You couldn't walk it out of me.
I'll bet you ten - pounds I can do it on the spot!"
"Done !" cried the knowing one
The clock struck eight, and with his back to
the table and the door, the landlord poped into
a chair—
"Here she go* there she -goes !" and his
finger waved in eikrve, his eyes fully fixed on
the pendulum. The fellows behind interrupt
ed, ••%Vheie's the Money ? Plank the money !"
The landlord was not to lose in that way.
His fore-finger slowly and surely went with
the pendulum, and his left hand disengaged
his purse, from his pocket, which he threw
behind hiw'on the table. All wassilent ; the
dapper man at length exclaimed—
•• Shall I deposit the, money in the hands of
the waiter ?"
"Here she goes. there she goes !' was the
only answer.
One of the wags left the room. The landlord
beard him go down stairs ; but lie was not to
be disturbed by that trick.
Presently the waiter entered, and touching
Tupon the shoulder. asked,
"Mr. B—, are you crazy ? What are you,
doing ?"
"Here she goes - , there she goes 1" he respond
ed, his hand waving the fore-finger as_ before.
The waiter rushiA down stairs : he called
one of the neighbors and asked him to go up.
They ascended, and the neighbor: seizing hini
gently by the collar in an imploring voice said :
"Mr. B—, do not sit here: Come, - come
down stairs ; what can possess you to sit here?"
"Here she goes, there she goes," was the
sole reply, and The solemn face and theeslc - Wly
moving finger settled the matter. He was
mad !-
"He is mad," whispered the in a low
voice; "we must go for a doctor."
The landlord was not to be duped, he wa
not to be deceived. although the whole town
came to interrupt hiM.
"You had better call up his added

"Here she goes, there she goes !" repeated
the landlord and his hand still moved on. •
In a minute his wife entered full of agony of

"Here she goes, there she goes !" and his.
hand continued ; to go, but his wife wouldn't
go ; she would stay, and he thought:She was
determined to conspire . against him and niake
him lose the wager. She wept, and she con
tinued-- -
-What' cause Jhave yOu for this ? Why do
you do so ? Has your Villfe-,"
"'Here 'she goes; there she -goes !" and his
finger seemed to be tracing her airy progress.
for anything she could ascertain to the con
trary. •
“illy dear,” she still continued, thinking
that the thought of his child whom he fondly
loved, would teneto restore him, "shall I call
up your daughter ?"
"Ilere she goes, there she goes !" the land
lord again seperted, his eyes becoming more
and more fixed and glazed, from the steadiness
of the gaze. A slightstnile, which had•a great
effect upon the minds of those present, played
upon his face, as he thought upon the many
unsuccessful resorts to win him from - his pur
pose and of his success in baffling them. The
physician entered. - lie stood by the side of
the-busy-man. lie looked at him in silence,
shook his head, and to the anxious inquiry of
the wife, answered— •
n►adam ! The reWer,persons here the
betteT.:Tife tnaid — lfid:better stay away ;- do

"Here she goes, there she goes yet again,
in harmony with the waving finger, issued
from the lips attic landlord. •
"A consultation, I think, will be necessary,"
said' the physician. "Will you run for Dr.
A-- ?"
The kind neighbor buttoned up his-coat and
hurried from the room.
- In a few--minutes Dr. A—, with another
medical gentleman, entered.
~
"This is . a sorry- sight," said he to the doc
tor' with him.
"Indeed it is, sir," was the reply. "It is a
sudden attack, one of the—"
"Here she goes, there she goes !" was the
sole reply. The physicians stepped into a
corner and consulted together.
"Will you be good .enough to run fora bar
ber ? We must have his head shaved and
blistered," said Dr. A—.
"Ah, poor dear husband," said .tlfe lady•
"I fear he will never know his miserable VW I "
"Here she goes, there she goei ?" said the
landlord, with a little -more emphasis, and a,
moire nervous, yet sdettituined . waving of the
finger in concert with the pendulum : for the
minute hand was near the twelve—that point
which was to put ten pounds into his pocket.
if the hand arrived at it without suffering hini
self to be interrupted.
The wife, in a low, bewailing tone,,contin
uid her utterances—
"NO ! never ; nor his daughter."
"Here she goes, .1.1 - rere_she goes !" -almost
shouted the landlord, as the minute hand ar
rived at the desired point.
The barber arrived ; he was naturally a
talkative man, and when the doctor made`some
casual remark,-reflecting upon the qTfirlity of
the instrument he was about to use ; lie replied :
"Ah, ha! Monsieur, you say yer ver bad to
razor—tes beautiful—eh ?—look—very fine,
isn't he ?"
"Here she goes, there she goes !" screamed
the landlord. his hand waving on—on, his
face gathering a smile, and his whole frame
in readiness to be• convulsed with joy.
The barber was amazed. "here she goes,
there she goes," he responded, in the best
English he could use. "Vare ? vare shall I
begin ? Vat his dat he say ?"
"Shave his head at once !" interrupted the
doctor, while 'the lady sank into a chair.
"Here she.goes, there she goes ?" for the last
time, cried the landlord, as the clock. struck the
hour if :nine, as he sprang from his seat in an
ecstacy of delight, screaming at the top of his
voice, as be skipped about the rooin—
"I've won it won it!"
"What'?" said the wailer.
"What ?"said the doctors.
"What ?" re-echoed the wife.
, 'Why, the wager—ten poUnds." But cast
ing his eyes around the room, and missing the
young men who induced him to watch the
clock, he asked— ( 4
"Where are those young men who supped
here last night ? eh ? quick-.where are they ?"

The truth flashed like a thunderbolt through

GETTYSBURG. MONDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1854.
Extraordinary Case.
The Paris correspimdent of the Columbus
Journal translates the following extraordinary
and incredible story from late German paperS.;
A very rich old lady; the Countess de K—,
had by her first marriage,' two twins sons,
Whom she loved fondly. After having trent :
bled a long while for their existence, she de
cided to quit - Germany. her native 'country;
where she possessed, independent of a vast
and magnificent chateati. an immense proper
ty under rent. She traveled, consulted the
most eminent phycians, and finally fixed her
residence in Italy. There, under the influence
of a beautiful sky, the two boys grew up, but
they preserved the excessive nervous impressi
bility which had, since their infancy, put their
lives in peril. ,The two boys had between
them a retnarkable resemblance ; they both
engaged in the culture,of arts, but especially
to ainting.' At sixteen years of age, they
were already cited as masters ; but at this
epoch a new crisis appeared : the same syrop
toms;llre-sanie pains ; the physicians decided
that to prevent the return of these nervous
crisises, the young men should be separated.
They obstinately refused at first, but vanquish;
ed by the supplications of their - distracted
mother, they consented to the painful scpera
-tion.--It w-as-left- to-chance-which-one-should
leave the maternal roof, and it fell on Alfred. ,
Alfred K. started on the tour of Greece and
Egypt : the journey was to continue a year. I
*Allred wrote - r•egular•ly every day to his.mother
and brother ; he sent them his drawings and
his pictures. But what was remarkable, the
young man who remained in Italy lived so per
fectly the life of his brother, that he deSigned
and painted exactly and simultaneously what
his brother designed . and painted after nature.
Each time that a package arrived from Athens
or Alexandria, the Paintings, the moat ellsthat
they contained had already their duplicates in
the studio of the brother—duplicates so faith
ful that the artists •themseltes could find no
difference.
One day, returning froin a journey in Upper
Egypt, Alfred K. died and the physicians sent
to the family a detailed account of all the cir
cumstances which attended the_deatb_of.the
young man. The same day, at the same hour,
and under circumstances, and with sympteins
precisely identical, - the brother who remained
in Italy died, pronouncing the same words as
his' brother had pronounced.
The desolate mother, who was yet young,
being but sixteen years older than her—sons,
rem' trod to Germany, v. here her husband oc
enpieda high position un ler government. Two
years after her return, site gave birth a second
time to two twin - boyg, who resembled, trait
lilts trait, tne "twin sons whom she had so un
fortunately lost. 'hey received at their bap
tism the names of their deceased brothers.
All the circumstances which had presided at
the delOpement of the first children, were rel 4
produced precisely with the second ; the same
nervous paroxyistns ; the same mysterious
sympathies. Again the mother was advised to
travel. This time she went into Spain ; the
boys exhibited the same taste for the arts, par
ticularlyfor painting. , At the age of sixteen,
and day for day with the' first brothers they
fell sick. Then separation was ordered, but
this time the mother resisted energetically ; she
was vanquished, however, by the persistence
of their malady and the continued perstfasion
of the physicians, who declared that they
would die if they remained together. on ac
count of their extraordinary resembl ance, of I
regeir 'nervous organization, which' absOrhed
mutually the principles of their existence. The
mother consented that one of them shoilld make
a voyage into the south of Spain.
Chance again desi ,, nated the one who bore
1!)
the name of Allied. The same phenomenon
of intuition was reproduced. The one design
ed at ,Madrid or Barcelona -what the other
painted at Cadiz, and with the same wonderful
resemblance of- toueh. Tile day thatelfred
was ready to start home to re:min his
mother and brother, he fell sick and died at
the same hour that his brother died at Cadiz in
the arms . of his mother, and hoth pronounced
at the same time the words, which their de
ceased brothers pronounced eighteen years ago.

it seemed so. "Well, thin, yer honor, I p!ade
guilty, not bceanse I am guilty, for I am as
innocent as your honor's suckling-babe at the

Furgisson's sowl."

The Elephant Show in Paris.
A ,Paris correspondent of the Boston Post,
gives the ,following account of the really extra
. ordinary performance otelephant.s in that city :
**Sine I saw an elephant stand on his bead
at the- circus in Paris, I have not been more
amused than I was an evening or two-situ,
_. •
the Cique de rlmperatrice, at an animated lad
der-. The elephabts were evidently young and
docile creatures; and appeared - in the immense•
area of sawdust and tan to be somewhat small
er than usual. They were handled by a mus
cular fellow, who had more control over them
than any mahout I ever saw in India. They
waltzed, danced, promenaded and walked on
the& head. I never laughed more in my life
than at this singular performance. To see the
trunks and tusks plaoe themselves firmly on a
small raised platform in the ring, and' then to
hold the huge slouching legs and diminutive
tail gradually elevated, the act disclosing a vast
expanse of dirty, tawny-looking belly, was infi
nitely ludicrous. The elephants seemed to en
joy the attitude, too, very much, and disclosed
no modesty whatever' in revealing 'the
.whole
beauty of their construction to an intelligent
public. A reward of acracker or an apple inva
riably elicited a repetition. and once,ain the ar

'towards the ceiling. They subsequently inter
laced their trunks, and to . a diseriminating
strain from the orchestra, performed a series of
evolutions which, if therwere not characterized
by an extraordinary rapidity were at least dis
tinguishable for the dignity attending their ac
complishment. Feats with their trunks they
exhibited in profusion ; but the ground and lof
ty tumbling and the waltzing Were things, to
we as supremely ridiculous as they were' otr

keeper, at his command, in every direction, sa

gracefully retired from-the aka; bearing be
tween them the biped whose 'nature, in etnnpar
ison, appeared so contemptible; and overwhelm
ed with npplanses and laudation from the de
lighted spectators. All Paris flocked to see
them during the engagement, and the owner, I
suppose, reaped a handsome Ihrtune. The a
-mated ladder is also an extraordinary perform
ance. Nerve, skill and composure distinimish

ly for five franks a sight. Ho mounts a narrow
ladder some ten feet high said from the topmost

intelligence and animation. It strvts, trots,

ladder does not move a hair's breadth; it scents

eXception of the motion necessary to the violin

walk away as steadily as possible. Ravers

Howard Athenzeitm I remember to have seen
him exploit very Sublimely: The leg develop
ment necessary to their performanee, we can
both believe, must be enormous. The fellow,
however is like almost all , the French circus
performers—short, square, and very quick and
graceful in his movements. There are many
other entertainments incident to the' Empres's
eirc t , which ar e equally striking and interest

Tile WAR---THE CRIMEA.
Various fragments of intelligence has arrived
at London on the Gth, preceded kir, a dispatch
front Viscount Stratford de Ratcliffe, the Eng
lish Ambassador at Constantinople, which,
while showing_ Sebastopol Was. not taken to
the 28th Septeinber, also show that the allies
in the Crimea had made a movement upon
Rataklays, which is some ten miles south of
Sebastopol, while Alma and the other points at
which.they had previously met the Russians,
were considerably north
. of that fortress. The.
indications, therefore, are that the movement.
to Balaklays was part of a general arrange
ment of.the allied forces, consequent upon the
total rout of the Russians at Alma and Belhek,
and the retreat of Prince Menchikoll into' the
interior. The allieS thus appear to_possess the
entire country at mind Sebastopol, from Bclhek
to4lltklays; (a distance of 1;3 or
‘ l4
with Sebastopol fronting to sea. between them,)
and the place is, therefOre, completely nvest
ed. Prince nehi koff's escape :to Sei las topid ,
with half his army, is owing to the-allies being
at present totally without cavalry: The na
ture of their flight after the battle - of Alma is
demonstrated by their having been obliged to
leave their wounded on the field, 300 of whom
have -already arrived at Odessa, whither they
were sent by the allies under a flag of truce,
One story circulated is, that fourteen Russian
vessels ,of war made a vaiii attempt to escape
front Sebastopol.
The details of the battle of ; Alina show the
severity of the combat.. The steamer Nile.
which left Constantinople on the 25th, arrived
at - -Marseilles with despatches for the .French
government, relative to this sanguinary affair,
and we.learn from a telegraphic message that
the English loss i killed and wounded, instead
of being 1,400, as at first stated, was over
2.000, while that of the French wits but 1,460.
but Gen.' Bonet was killed. "The - Russians
numbered 40,000 teen and 100 cannon,- find
their loss in killed and wounded is variously
estimated at 6,000 Lo 10.000, the former being
probably 'the more correct. The Fury was on
the way to England witli the despatches to
that government.
Letters from Nriena, October 2d, state that
the reserves of the Wiles were not brought into
to action. The English, the Turks - and the
French, in different positions, did their work
so well that the Russians never had a chance.
After their defeat on the Alma, the Russians
regained_their fintitications without making a
halt. The Zouaves, Tirailleurs, and Scotch
