SINGFLAR PRFSENTIMENT OF DEATII.-A most
singular presentiment of death occurred a few
....9 1
days ago 'n the family of Mr. George Fisher, in
Reis ‘ ert n, Baltimore county. His little son,
Fillm r re, aged about four years, awoke in the
night and called to his mother to know if she
was awake. He then asked if his father was
awake, and afterwards told his mother that he
was going to die. Ile told his father the same
thing, and when told that he was dreaming,
replied that he was awake, and knew he was •
going to die. The parents thought nothing
more about it, and the child slept comfortably
until morning. When he awoke in the morning
ho repeated his presentiment .to his parents ;
and as soon as breakfast was over insisted on
being allowed to got and tell Mrs. Walters; a
neighbor, that lie was gOing to!die. His mother •
told him that he had better go and see his,
grandmother, if he was going to die. • Ire made
a visit to his grandmother, and also to Mrs.
Walters,.after which ho returned to his liorne
During the afternoon of 'the same day :ili
mother. was called out of the house for a few.
minutes, and when she returned she found the
little fellow awfully burned by his doilies
baking taken fire. As soon as the fire was ex,.
tinguished he said to his mother, "I told :you
I was going to die." 1 A physician was called
in, who dressed his injnries, telling him that he
Would soon be well. Hi said, 4 ! no; Fillmore
is going to die ;" and during the night the little
. boy breathed his last. This was a most extra
ordinary presentiment, and during the whole
day ho spoke of dying, though he had enjoyed
excellent health. The boy is said to have been
a very sprightly and interesting child, and was
beloved by all who knew him.—Balt. American.
A LUCKY RUNAWAY SLAVE.—The Rochester
(New York) Democrat says that a ,runaway
slave named Grandson Boyd, who tad taken
refuge some years since in Rochester, left the
country, as many others did, at time of the pat
sago of the Fugitive Slave law, from fear his
owner might reclaim him. He went to Austra
lia and commenced work in the gold mines.—
When he left ho was indebted $2OO to a crock
ery merchant, in Rochester, who had no very
strong hopes the debt would ever be cancelled.
A few weeks since, however, ho received a let
ter from Boyd, stating that ho had just arrived
at 'Liverpool from Australia, where he had
made $B,OOO, and enclosing a draft £4O, ($200)
the amount of the debt.
O 7•A Y.&i has invented a machine for
extracting the lies from quack advertisements.
Some of them are never seen after entering the
machine, as only the truth comes out.
The Weather.
ANOTHER Munn= nr Pfutdinßunr.t..-4
young devil by the name of Smith, loafing in
company with others in the Warren Hose house
in Baker Arcot, Phila., gotinto a quarrel with
one Roundtreo. John Hunter and
,James
McCartey, interferred to separate the combat
tants and succeeded. Smith withdrew to anoth
or part of the room, opened a knife, deterred and
unexpectedly attacked Iknter and McCarty,
giving each a stab, fatally wounding the former,
and seriously the latter, Smith, pointing the
forefinger of his right hand, said. " I gave them
that—Cod d—n them—there was no fun
about that for I meant to kill them," and such
like expressions. Hang him up, there's no use
in his living.
As . EARTHQUAKE.—An earthquake was felt
in Virginia on Friday last. At Clarksville, a
little before three o'clock, A. 31., there was a
rumbling, rattling. sound, which resembled
somewhat the noise made by a four horse coach
in rapid motion, or a wagon with am empty
body, running rapidly down a rough hill.—
Crockery standing on the table was visibly
shaken. At Wyliesburg, houses were shaken,
and one gentleman was waked up by the severe
jar and noise. Alarmed by the cracking sound
of his house, he jumped out of bed, corisiderably
frightened, and ran out to see if the house was
not on fire at the top. in Prince Edward, we
learn, the shock was still greater. In llalifitx
it was sufficient to wake persons from sound
sleep.
COSTLY ENTERTAINSIENTS.-A Philadelphia
letter writer says):—The principal topic of con
versation here now is the magnificent party
given here last week by Mrs. Rush the well
known millionaire. About 2,000 invitations
were issued, and the entire cost of the enter
tainment, I am informed, was in the vicinity of
twenty thousand dollars, the bare item of bo
quets alone costing $l,OOO, which were distri
buted in elegant profusion around her splendid
mansion. It was nothing but one incessant re
velling in, luxury from beginning to end. At
half past four o'clock in the morning green tea,
sweet bread and terrapins, as the closing feast
preparatory to the departure of the remaining
guests, were seived up.
PORI:UM:HS IN TUN U.MITED STATES.—Accord
-1g; to the census of 1950, there were living in
I l e United States, 2,244,043 of this class, and
they were distributed as follows, viz :—Eagern
section, 305,249, against, 2,421,857 native
born ; Middle, 1,080,574, against 5,447,733 ;

057,329 1 total •of foreign birth, 2,244,648,
against 17,742,815 native born. The largest
per cent. is in the Middle section, being 19.84 ;
the smallest in the Southern, being 1.86.
THE FEBRUARY INTEREST.—The State Trea
surer, Gen. Joseph Bailey, commenced the pay
ment of the semi-annual interest on the State
debt, on Thursday, at the Bank of Pennsylva
nia. The aniounCto be paid is about 000,000,
all of which is on hand.
