A Ckusuino Exfosurb. A sneechmakor,
in tbe western part or the State of V irginia,
during a Presidential canvuss, has given us
tbe following anecdote. Lie was holding furtu
upon the merits of General Harrison, and
especially npon his courage, tact and success
s a millitary cominauder. While ia the
midst of bis discourse, a tall, guuut mau
who was probably a schoolmaster in those
parts arose from the crowd, and said in
voice which peuetrated the whole assembly,
Mister, Mister 1 I want to ax you a ques
tion." To this the orator BBseutud and tbe
man went ou as follows: "We are told, feU
low-citizens tht Oiuorul Harrison is a mighty
great ginoral ; but I say he's one of the
very meanest sort ofginorals. We ore told
here to-night that he defendod himself brave
ly at Fort Meigs ; but I toll you that, on that
occasion be was guilty of tho "Small Tail
Movement, and I challenge the orator here
present to deny it 1" The speaker declaring
his ulter ignorance of what tbe intruder meant
by "Smnli Toil Movomont." I'll tell 700."
laid the man 1 "I've got it here in b'ack and
white. Here is Urimsbuw's History of the
United State?," holdiojnp the book, "and I'll
read what it says : "At this critical moment
Gen. Harrison executed a novel movement!'
Does the gentleman deny that!" "No go
on. "Well Le executed a novel movement.
Now, here's Johnson's Dictionary," taking
the book out of his pocket oud holding it up,
here it snys: 'Novel a small tale'l And
this was the kind of movement Gen. Harrison
was guilty or. Now, I'm no soger, and don't
know much of railentary ticktuvks but this
1 do sar a tnnn who in ttie tace 01 an enemy
is guilty of a Small Tail Movement, is not lit
to be Prosiduut or the United States, and he
shan't get my vote 1" The relator of tho
anecdote says it was quite impossible, for him
to ovorcome the effect of this speech, and we
are left to conclude that tho vote ot that vi
cinity was given to VaB linren. Hecollee.

too good to be lost. Wo clip it from an ex
chaugo paper, and respectfully call the aiten
tiou to it of certain person who feel disposed
to spreaa in tne newspaper line :
A young man who ardently desired wealth,
was visited by his Satanic miijuety, who
tempted him to promise his soul fur otoinity
if he could be supplied on this earth with all
the meney ho could use. The bargain was
concluded : the devil ivas to supply the mon
ey, and was at last to have the soul, unless
tho younj man could spend moro money than
the devil could furnish. Years passed away ;
the man married, was extravagant in his liv
ing, built palaces, speculated widely ; lost and
gave away fortunes, and yet his coffers were
clways full. He turned politician, and bribed

bis "pile" of gold. He became a 'Cllibuster,"
end luted out ships and armies, but bis banker
honored all his drafts. He went to St. Paul

all the money he could borrow ; but though
the devil made wry fuces when be came to

The devil growled at the bill at the end

The Florence correspondent of the Loudon

is a story of an Imperial Highness waltzing
thrice in the same evening with an English
lady at tho Court of lieilin. She naturally
felt and frankly expressed bensetr highly Bat
tered by the compliment. ! did not luteud
it as a compliment,' was the auswer. 'Then,'
taid the lady, somewhat rebuflml, 'your High

dancing,' wus the still unsatisfactory respond.
Undeturred.by bur ill success, our fair cuutry
woman still prosecuted her inquiries. 'What

Ix a Marrviko Mood. The Petersburg

named Hessy Kellutn. who had irrown vurv

waster to permit her to marry. Tbe cause
assigned for this refusal was that aha had

A fast young man in Detroit took a buxom

Report of the Committee appointed to superin
tend the Burning of the Iron Safes, at Read
ing, February 27, 1857.
Readixo, March 4
lhe undersigned, members of the committee.
do respectfully report, that we sow the two Safes
originally agreed upon by r arrets & Herring and
bvans c W atson, placed side by side in a fur'
race, viz: The Safe inuse by the Paymaster o
tho Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Compa
ny, in his ottice at Keading, maiiulacturcd by
arrels & Herring, and the tafe in use by li
A. I. ants, in his store, manufactured by hvan
& Watson, and put in books and papers precisely
like.
The'fire was stsrted at 8) o'clock, A. M.,snd
kept up until four cords of green hickory, two
cords dry oak and halfchesnut top wood were
entirely consumed, the whole under the aupenn
tenuence of the subscribers, members of the Com
mittee. The fcafos were then cooled oil' with
water, after which they were opened, and the
books and papers taken out by the Committee
and sent to il. A. Lniitz s store for public exam
ned aud marked by the l-ommittce. J he book
and pnpers taken from tho fSule manufactured
by Farrels 4- Herring were in our iudgnien
amnged fully fifteen per cent, more than thopo
taken from Lvans & W nlson s Safe.
We believe the above to have been a fair an
impartial trial of the rcfpeclha qualities of both
Kates.

condition of the papers and books taken out of
