Short Stories.
LIFE ON THE TWINING OF ♦ CARD..
A friend narrated to us a day or two since
an anecdote of early tithes in West Tennessee,
which we will attempt to repeat even at the
risk of losing the graphic simplicity of 'his
conversational narrative. •
Some eighteen or twenty yearit' since a
well-known resident of Tipton county was
put on his trial, charged with the murder of
his wife. As usual in such cases, popular
feeling was largely against him, and all the
eloquence and ingenuity of his counsel were
required to make any impression in his favor
upon a jury, which however: impartial it
might desire to be in the consciousness of
sworn duty, could"not but see the waves of
popular prqudicesurging in upon it.
The case was ably argued. The counsel
for the defence made most vigorous and im
passioned appeals. The case was submitted
to the jury ; and they retired, to make up
their verdict. Time passed,' and as the set
ting sun warned all of the approaching night,
the large throng in attendance, the Judge.
counsel, ect. retired, all anxious, the accused
not . the least so, to learn the verdict of the
jury, and some wondering that the jury hesi
tated for one 'moment to bring in a 'verdict
of guilty. In the meantime the jury had
come to a point beyond which they could
progress no further. The appeals of the
counsel of the defense had not been without
their influence, and the jury stood unchange
ably six for conviction and six acquittal.—
Something had to, be done. In those days
twelve good fellows, could not be got togeth
er for. - a night, and sleep. Cards appeared
mysteriously from the depth of sundry large
pockets, and exercises in seven up and poker
were zealously . 'commenced. •
About midnight one of their number, Col.
P.. proposed that they should play a game of
seven up, the rettult to decide the verdict.—
The proposition was heartily and unanimous
ly agreed to, in all seriousness; and the whole
I crowd collected around Col. P. and his op
ponent, who proceeded to play the game on
which was staked 'a human life. Col. P.
played to save the accused. - His opponent
played, and quite as zealously, - to secure the
conviction. The backers, five and five; stood
behind them, encouraging the champions,
and .watching the game, dimly seen by the'
'light of two tallow candles, with the most
intense interest.
The game proceeded with very equal for
tune, till both parties stood at six and six.—
It was Col. P. 's deal ; he dealt, and turned
Ack. The prisoner was acquited, and every
man of the jury. joined in a shout which
startled the whole village, even the reel-
era in "the grocery." Next morning Ale
jury went into court, and gave. to the its
tonishment of many, the verdict of “got
guilty." The juryman who played an "ciji
successful game for human life, still lives,
a much respected , citizen of this district.—
One of the counsel is a very distinguished
member of the Memphis bar, and the ac
cused has, as we believe, gone to a higher
court ; but neither of them, nor any of the
assemblage, nor the court, who marvelled at
the verdict, eighteen years ago, have ever
known that a human hie was saved by.turn
ing Jack ! There are some curious episodes
in the history of out early settlement; but
who would think of venturing life upon
turning Jack.--Memphis .Eagle.
ANECDOTE •OS ETHAN ALLEN.
Col. Allen was taken prisoner in an expe
dition against the Canadians, while attempt
ing to capture Montreal, in connection with
Col. Brown: , • ' '
Re was loaded with chains and sent to
England, where was imprisoned for a
short time, and et length taken back to hi.
country and exchanged for Col. Campbel ;a
British officer , who bad been taken prisoner
by the Americans. , He died at Colchester,
Vi., Feb. 12th, 1789. '
An instance is related of him, that is said
to have occurred'while he was on his way to
England. While closely confined to his
room, he discovered one day that a small pin
or wire that fastened one of his hand-cuffs,
was broken. Extricating the pieces with his
teeth, he was enabled to loose the bolt, that
it also was soon withdrawn, and one hand
was set at liberty : he then proceeded to re-.
lease the other, and was successful. This
having been accomplished, he was not long
in liberating his feet. Fearing, however, lest
the captain should discover his situation ; and
contract the " area of his freedom, " he care
fully replaced the bolts and
,pins before the
arrival of his keeper. In a short time it be
came a fine recreation for the Colonel to take
off and put on his chains at pleasure.
One day . the' Captain wishing to afford
some meriment to the crew, commanded
Allen to be brought upon deck. Hoping to
frighten him, the Captain said: ,
"There is a probability that the ship will
lounder,--if so, what will become of us, es
pecially you, M. Allen, a rebel against the
1 Xing ? '
" Why, said Allen, " that woul d-be very
much like our dinner hour. " '
' " How so ? " said the Captai , now reflect
ing that Allen wag allowed to come on deck
while he Maiself went down into his cabin
to dine:
.. s , Well, you see. ~ answered Allen, " I'd
be on my way up just as you would be going
below.' ' • .
The Captain was not arall pleased with
this reply, and commenced a regular tirade
of abuse against the American people.
" In a short time, " said the Captain, " all
the rebels will be in the same situation as
yourself:"
This was too,Much for Allen, and he de
ttrmined to apply his newly acquired dex
terity in unloosing his fetters to some pur•
pose. Quickly raising his hands to , hi s
mouth, he apparently snapped asunder the
pins and bolts and hurling his Land-cuffs and
fetters overboard—seized the astonished Cap
tain by the collar, and threw him headlong
upon the deck, then turning to . the affright
ed crew, he exclaimed ma voiceof thunder:
" If I am insulted again during,the voy
age, I'll sink the ship and swim astuire."
This exploit so .terrified the Captain and
crew,, that Allen was allowed - to di) pretty
much as he pleased the rmizaindez- of the

GENERAL ADVERTISER.
Forty years after the disc&wery of Hercu
laneum, another kity, overwhelmed at the
same time, was 'destined to be the" partner
of Its disinterment, as well as of its bunal."
This was Pompeii,
the very name,of which
had almost been forgotten. As it lay at a
greater distance from Vestivids thanidercu-
Loom; the stream of lava never reached it.
It was inhumed, by showers of ashes, pum
ice and stones, which Conned:a bed of Varia
ble depths, from twelve to twenty feet, and
which is easily removed ; whereas the for
mer city was entombed in ashes and lava to
the depth of from seventy . to one hundred
feet. With the exception , of the upper
stories of `the houses, which - were either
consumed by red hot stones ejected from the
volcano, or crushed by the' weight Of the
matter collected on their roofs,';'we behold
in Pompeii a flourishing city, nearly in the
state in which it existed eighteen centuries
ago!_'The buildings unaltered -by newer
fashions--the paintings undimmed by, the
leaden touch of time—household furniture
lefOn the confusion of use—articles even of
intnnsie:value abandoned in the hurry of
escape, yet safe from the robber, or scattered
about as they fell from the' trembling hand
which could not stoop to pause for the most
valuable possessions—and in some instances
the bones of the inhabitants, bearing sad tes
timony to the suddenness and completeness
of the calamity which , overwhelmed them.
In the prison, skeletons of unfortunatepen
were discovered, their leg bones being en
closed in shackles, and are so preserved in
the museum at Portici. -
I,.noticed, said Mr. Simond, a striking
memorial of this mighty eruption, in the
Forum, opposite to the temple of Jupiter,;
a new alter of white marble, exquisitely
beautiful, and--apparently just out of the
hands of the sculptor, had been erected
there ; an enclosure was building all around;
the mortar just dashed against the side cif
the wall, was but halt spread, out ; you saw
the long sliding stroke of the trowel about
to obliterate its own track—but it never did
return; the hand of the workman was sud
denly arrested, and after the lapse.of 1800
years, the whole looks so 'fresh, that you
would almost swear that the mason was
only gone to his dinner and , about to come
back immediately . to finish his work ! We
can hardly conceive it possible for an event
connected with the arts of former ages, ever
to,liappen in future times, equal in interest
to the resurrection of these 'Roman towns,
unless it be the re-appearance of the Phoeni
cian City of the Plain.—Enbank's Hydraulics.
The relation of husband and wale was es ,
eery
tablished six thousand years ago''' and has
survived not only the flood, but other
change. It was then declared bthe Ruler
of the universe that man should leave father
and mother and cleave unto his wife- and
they should be one flesh. The relation was
not formed for mere *selfish „or animal ends,
it was nut established for mere sensual grat
ification,, but for the attainment of high, v.and
holy and noble purposes.
The vow made, is to be ;observed at all
times and amid all changes., and he as bound
to love, cherish and protect , his wife, .vhile
life lasts. Ido not believe that a man is to
be excluded from all female society because
he is. married, nor that it would, be
. proper
for him to cease the cultivation and enjoy
meat of all that is pleasant and delightful in
friendship ;, far from it, for that would de
prive US of our friends, would rob us of our
main pleasures, would take frotri us one of
the chief sources of comfort; and leave the
world without a gleam of sunshine,or a sin
gle ray of consolation ; indeed, life thus nar
rowed would be almost worthless. • ,
The husband ought at all times to be. ten
der, affectionate and loving; for naught elie
can compensate his w?fe for the sacrifices
she has made, nor cheer her amid her many
cares and arduous duties ; harsh wordi- - :L'-un-
kind looks—fault finding; anger, and sus
picions. snould be carefully and watchfully
.avoided.. .
`As the• head of the family, the. husband's
example will be followed, and his words re
membered; the destiny of others is placed in
his hands, and he exerts an influence for
good or evil.. Howimponant, then, that he
be a sincere and devoted' Chnstian, how
necessary that his feet often travel toward
the house of the Lind, and• his conduct be
such as becometh 'an upright and honest
man.
The Alpine Born is an instrument made
of the bark of a cherry-tree,; and, like a speak.;
ing tratiapet, is used to convey sounds to a
distance. When the last rays of the
sun gild the summit of the Alps, the shep
herd who inhabits the highest-peak of these
mountains takes his horn and cries with a
loud voice—" Praised be the t Lord. " As
soorras the neighboring shepherds hear him,
they leave'their ;huts and , repeat these words.'
The sounds are prolonged many minutes,.
whilst the'echoes of the mountain and grot=
tos of the rocks repeat the name of God.
Imagination cannot picture anything more
solemn or sublime than such a scene. - -Du
ring the silence that succeeds, theshepherds
bend their knees and pray in the open air,
and then repair to their huts to rest. The
sunlight gilding the tops of those stn endows -
mountains, upon whic hthe vault 10 heaven
seems wrest, the magnificent scenery around,
and the voices of the shepherds sounding
from rock to rock the praises of the Almighty;
banst fill the mind of every iraveller with
enthusiasm and awe.—Scientific American.

A. DEATH BELL
A story is told of the casting of the belt for
the church of St. Magdalen, at Breslau.—
When the metal was ready to be poured into
the mould, the chief founder wenr.to dinner,
and forbade his apprentici , , under pain of
death, to touch the vent by which the:metal
was conveyed. The youtb, curious to see
the operation, disobeyed orders, and the
whole of the metal ran into the mould, and
the enraged master, returning from his meal,
slew him or, the spot. On breaking away
the mould, he found he had been too hasty,
for the bell was cast as
. perfectly as possible.
When it was hung in its place, the master
had been sentenced to death by the sword for
`the murder of his apprentice, and be entreat• .
ed the authorities that he might be allowed
to hear it once betore he died. His petition
was granted, and the bell has since, been
lung at every execution.

'hat an immense difference it makes who
squeezes one's baud ! A lady may twine ber
arm around your waist, press a kiss on your
brow, or, holding your hand to hers, toy
with your fingers collier heart's content : but
you are perfectly calni and collected, and ex
perience no unusual. sensation, either disa
greeable or otherwise. . Perchance a gentle
man whom you dislike. or feel but slightly
acquainted with, ventures to press your hand:
you snatch it away, the indignant blood
mounts to your forehead, and with flashing
eyes, you wonder " how the impertinent fel
low dares to do such a, thing. " Rather an
antiquated specimen of humanity squeezes
your hand ; you feel mortified that a man of
his years should make such a fool of himself;
that he should think you can really like such
nonsense, and above all that he believes it
possible that you can like him, vexed at what
be has done, and determined that an oppor
tunity shill never be offered ' , him of doing so ,
agate.
You place your hand confidently in that of
an accepted, acknowledged lover; you are not
excited or confused, yOix have ceased blush•
ing continually in his presence, you experi-
ence a feeling of quiet happiness, a " little
heaven upon earth," sort of feeling, you are
pettedly contented with everything in.this
terrestial world, especially your lover and
yourself, as you sit with his arms twined
around you—that manly arm which is to
guard and support you through life, a son,
rosy, happy tint suffuses your face, as your
hand is clasped in his, ah it is a blissful,
foolish feeling.
But let some one whom you like very
much, not an accepted lover, but one who
may, perhaps, be one, one of these days,
gently inclose your hand' in his own ; what
a strange, wild, joyful, painful feeling thrills
through you ! The hot blood leaps, dancing,
tumbling through your veins, rushes .to your
temples, tingles at your finger's ends, your
heart goes bump, bump ; surely, you think,
he must hear it throbbing, for the fife of you,
you cannot speak. Alter letting your hand
remain in his just long enough to show you're
not offended, you gently withdraw it but
perchanceif it is taken again; after a faint
" don't do so, " which is 'answered with a
still closer pressure, with downcast eyes and
blushing cheek, you let the little hand, this
first, bright earnest of other things to come,
' thrilling and burning with this new ecstatic
emotion, remain all tremblingly in its resting
place. --Home Journal.
CHILDRENS* cairma.
There is an immense deal to be learned in
the varieties of childreirs' crying.' Not only
in the judgment of the child's individual
character,-
. but for sound instruction in the
arts for passion and pathos. There is a good,
earnest,,ppen roar, quicklOaised and quick
ly.. spent, - , which • hi of excellent promise—
withoUt muddying the ground. And there
is a patient, monotonous, wearing out snivel,
with no expenditure of strength or voice,
which augurs a weak intellect, and one of
those amiable disitions which provokes
you more than a d ecidedly bad one. Each
of these is an excellent study—the que to in
titnidate, and the other to tire—rarely failing
of their end on any stage, but neithei suc
ceed in touching she heart. - For this, how
etrer, children are matchless as - examples.
There 'is a deep, helpless, prostrate 011ie:
tion sobs and sighs, now hemmed in, pow
breaking forth again, with a sobbingland of
backwater stroke, which onecottld int-14We
the Babes of the Wood to have uttered, at
the very moment ,they - lay down and died,
that no heart that breathes "wi;Eilitsr6i)
breath" could ever resist: . -And then again
there is a pale, hopeless look, with quiet,
trickling tears, as if the little heart were
driven to.the:last refuge of self-pity, or had
caught thelast glimmering of the meaning
of despair, which is ten times worse:
<, What is so shrill as silent tears?"
Children must cry, and it is a safe and de.
sirable sign. Some cry to please themselves,
and some to please thetr mothers.—There are
only. two sorts who abstain, as different as
light and darkness, though often confounded.
The one is the haughty spirit, the other the
sullen temper. The first, with gentle usage
and implicit trust, you need geverdespair of
the latter, alas! will tire out the fondest
physician..
A MOTIVE Eva, STUDY
pae of the best methods for rendering
* Addy agreeable is, to live with able men,
and suffer all those pangs of inferiority
which the want of knowledge always° in
flicts. Nothing short of some such power
ful motive, can drive a young person, in the
full possession of health and bodily activity,
to such an unnatural and such an unobirious
mode of passing his life, as study. But this
is the way intellectual greatness often begins.
The trophies of Miltiades drive away sleep.
A young man sees the honor in which living
gemus is held, . the trophies by which it is
adorned after life, it receives and 'enjoys from
th'e.feelings of men, not from their sense of
duty ; but men never obey this feeling with•
out discharging the first of all duties ; with
mit securing the rise and groWth Of genius,
and increasing the dignity of our nature,
by enlarging the dominion of - mind. No
eminent man was ever yet rewarded in vain;
no breath of praise was ever lavished upon
him ; it has never been idle and foolish to
rear up splendid monuments to his name ;
the rumor of these things inipels young minds
to their noblest exertions, , creates in them au
empire over present passions, inures them
to the severest toils, determines them to live
°Ow for the use of others, and to leave a
great and lasting memorial behind them.
THE BIBLE.
I am of opinion that the Bible contains
More true sublimity, more exquisite beauty,
more pure morality, more important history,
and gner strains of poetry and eloquence,
than earibetolleeted from all other books, in
whatever age or language they may have
been written."—Sir William Jones. •
" I will hazard the assertion; that no man
ever did or ever will become truly eloquent,
without being a constant reader of the Bible,
and an admirer of the purity and — sublimity

the polished brow, the gaudy areas, nor the
show and parade of fashionable life. ' A wo
man may have all the outward marks of
beauty, and yet not pOsess a lovely charac
