The troops from Mexico will return precisely on the roonditions mentioned in the speech from: the - throne namely, "without endangering Frencll interests we have gone to defend in - those distant countries." The Constitutionnel expresses the belief that the Americans will conform to the law .non.-Intervention, and concludes as fol lows: _ , _ - - !‘Finally, some of those dark forbodings by which -public is opinion ought to be -alarmed, will, be realized, the peace of the world will not be disturbed, and we affirm boldly that French interests in Mexico will incur no danger." Le Nord states that M. De Traverney, who had left for the United States, is a bearer of despatches of a very firm charac ter, demanding .categorically of the Ame rican government, wh'ther it means to re gard a protracted occupation of Mexico a casus belli.

' The. - London Times remarks that Spain tenaciously refused to accept the declaration .of the Congress of Paris in favor of abolish ing privateering, and now that weapon is turned against her. A very short tinde will 'enable the Chilean government to commis mission such a fleet of privateers that Span ish commerce will be impossible, and even her vessels of war will be in danger of be ing captured• singly.

(From the Chattanooga Gazette.] * * * Wait till you hear it. Ten years ago I was elected Sheriff of this county. This was my first election, and I have been returned, regularly ever: since. My first attempt - to open court' was made during an important trial. The criminal was a depraved, desperate wretch, who had been indicted for an atrocious and brutal murder. The fellow. was greatly hardened and seemed to care but, little, how the trial went—the evi dence was strong against him, and when the case was submitted to the jury, they returned a verdict of guilty without leavinotheir seats.' The The execution was fixed for a day, two weeks after the trial. Of, course it was My duty to put the rope - hround his neck, and launch him into eternity. It was a distasteful duty, I assure you; for, though I knew full well the man deserved his death, I did not relish the idea of hang ing him. I got through with it, how ever, and set him to dancing in the air. He did not struggle much and, I thought, had 'an easy death. After hanging the usual time he was pronounced dead, and was cut down, and his body given to his friends for interment. I thought I had seen the last of the man, as the wagon containing the body drove out of the jail yard; but I was mistaken. About four months after the execu tion, I happenened to be passing my barn, when I saw a man sitting in the doorway, with his head resting on his hands. I did not like his loos, so I approached him, and asked him what he wanted there. He raised his head, and looked at me in silence, lam not given to superstition, and I don't think I'm very timid,' but I felt my blod grow icy cold, as I recognized in the man before me the person whose execution I had conducted. His face showed no traces of his violent end: the only indir cation of it, ' now visible, was a light disfigurement of the neck. I scarcely knew what to say or think, for I had seen, him hung, and heard him pro nottnced dead, and had delivered his body to his friends for burial, and yet, after a lapse of four months, there he sat, looking_at me,with a face as white as a sheet. The terror that was ex hibited in his countenance convinced me that he was no' ghost,so I asked him, with as much coolness as I could com mand: "Jack Larkins, do you know me?" "You're the man that hung me," he replied, doggedly, at the same time making away. "Before you go, Larkins," said, I, "I would like to hear how you cheated the gallows." "You won't peach on any of them folks as helped me; will you:"' he asked. replied;" "I will not get them into any trouble. I simply wish to know how you felt while you were hanging, - and how you were resusci tated." He hesitated for some time,but upon a renewal of myassurancethat none of his friends should be molested, he told me the following story: When I on the rope around his neck and left nth. n the gallows, he felt a fainting about the heart, caused by his realizing his fearful situation for the first time; but before he had time to think, the trap was sprung and he fell through the opening. The shock of the fall was rather more startling than pain ful, and did not produce either insensi bility or confusion. His thoughts were remarkably clear,and he seemed to have the power of seeing far above, below,and all around him. Everything assumed a bright, vermilion hue, and a soft, dreamy languor gradually stole over him until hebeca,me insensible. There was nothing painfhl or unpleasant in anything h had undergone. He seemed to be sinking gently into a gentle sleep and all his thoughts were pleasant. The next he remembered was being wrung by the most excruciating torture. The pains were not confined to any particu lar place, but extended through the whole body. Rig first thought was that he was in perdition, and was suffering the penalty of" his crimes. The pains increased each moment, and at last came so intense that he btarten to his feet with a scream of anguish, at the same time opening his eyes. Great was his surprise to find himself in his fath er's house, in the midstof his friends and relativeS. He fainted at once, and when he recovered found •himself in hiS own bed. As soon as it was thought safe to do, his friends informed him that upon bringing his body home they had determined to, try to resuscitate it, al though-they feared it' would be useless: They worked faithfully, and at last suer ceeded. "But, sir, said theman in conclusion, "coming to life again was much worse than dying." The man promised to leave the. State and try to do better. I had but, little cohfidence in him.-yet I let him go. He kept his word, however, and a short time ago I heard he was a well-to-db farmer in one, of the territories. This, gentlenaen, IS the manner in which I got my ideas about hanging, and I think you will admit their force. Does•the SpidekFalt, Its Web? 1 Fired with emulation, I carefully watched a commOn • .garden-spider (Empeirct4liadenna), ;which I found as entertaining as wonderful. I com menced by destroying the web of 'a fine fat spider, and the owner, appeared ex cessively'astonished its her web collapsed , around,her., -- At length ace =took refuge in an inverted flower-pot, Where,l found her two ,'houre after. lam inclinedth think that - during this period she was preparing materials for a new web. I found in every case where a web is destroyed, that the spider goes away to some quiet spot, and, drawing his legs THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN , PHILADELPHIA, close round him remainpd quiet for two Or three hours., During this period oflrepose the spider is stupid and dull—just gives an impatient shuffle when touched, but does •not rurroff as spiders generally do When disturbed. I watched again, then left, and when I returned in half an hour„l found the' Spider ns active as a spider could be in building a new web— the old one, which at my last visit was still hanging, had now vanished.l Had the spider;paten it?—"that's the - rub." By a lucky:chance another spider came along the piece of wood, from the !end of which my spider had fastened one, of her foundation lines. They met," and in an instant the claws of each was shot out with a dexterity that a pugilist might envy; the blows were given in exactly the same manner as a cat strikes her an tagonist. The trespassing spider was soon convinced that it would be the height of folly to stop where he was, so fastening a line where he stood, he let himself down to a convolvulus leaf. My friend rushed to where Spider No. 2 had fastened his line, and seizing on it. the other end of which, be it remem bered,was in communication with spider No. 2's body, began to wind him off, that is to say, she drew the line towards herself in the same manner that a sailor hauls in a rope, but with a rapidity that was truly wonderful; the front legs were moved so quickly that my eyes could scarcely folloW them. Spider No. 2 having a decided objection to his vitals being wound away in this sort of ,man ner; put an end to my friend's little pas time by cutting thedine. Spider No. 1 had now collected web that amounted to the size of a large pea; when she found the supply cut off she began stowing it away'in her own body, forcing it in with her two front claws, and in a few mo ments not a vestige was left.—Science Gossip. • T FOR SALE.—A FARM, containing 102 acres superior land, with modern double bees: mansion, ice ouse. carriage house, largenew narn, three smaller ones, two tenant houses, ac., &c., all in excellent con dition, situate In Burlington county.
