A TERRIBLE SECRET. The Mr/a at the .I(eery ofa Meirdever—A Scheme to .13.1.. n lip the Universe—The Part& Ocean to Conrerted into a Sea of Fire—Summerfield Mystery. From The Nero York Ern. It is the peculiar property of weak under standings to wonder at what they see, and spend that time in doubting which men of sense will employ in Useful investigation, and in endeavoring to turn to advantage every new development of nature or art. But in spite of all sarcasms and admonitions, revelations so well attested as to preclude the possibility of a doubt, are brought to our very eyes, filling us with fear or admiration, and overcoming us " like a summer cloud." One of the most extraordinary discoveries of mod ern times is at this moment said to be in pos session of a western highwayman, who, if he chose, holds in his hands the means of destroy ing the universe. A short time ago Leonidas Parker, a well known Sacramentd lawyer, died, having pre viously written an account of his connection with the murder of one Gregory Summerfield. Summerfield, who was a man of splendid lit erary and scientific attainments, was always known before his death as "the man with a secret," and he met with a horrible death, at the age of seventy he being hurled from the platform of a car, on the Union Pacific. Rail road at Cape Horn, and falling down a thou sand feet on the rocks below. The only per son on the platform, at the time, besides the the unfortunate man, was the lawyer Parker, who was twice tried for the murder, and each time mysteriously acquitted. Parker, during life, was very reticent concerning the man and his murder, but shortly before his death, he placed in the hands of a friend a full explanation of the whole transaction. A short time before Summerfied's death he came into Parker's office, and introduced him self to Parker, who had formerly known him. After being warmly welcomed to California as au important addition to hermental wealth, he requested a private interview with the law yer, which was granted at once. . After some general remarks upon the ine quality of fortune among mankind, and in stancing himself as an example of that unkind tate which kept really deserving men at the bottom Instead of the top of the hill df fame, he suddenly sprang to his feet, and said : " But I have now the means at my com mand of rising superior to fate, or of Inflict ing incalculable ills upon the whole human The following paragraph,' from the Phila.- race." ! delphia Sunday Dispatch of a recent date, He then said that he had fathomed the I needs an explanation.

Parker now thought himself dealing with a lunatic, and offered to try the experiment in a bowl of water. It hissed and skipped around, as it always does, and seemed to expire, when a sharp explosion took place, and to his sur prise the liquid blazed in lurid flames to the ceiling, until every drop was consumed. Be ing now fully, satisfied that Surnmerfleld held the fate of the world in his 'hands, Parker Imparted the discovery, with the conditions, to a few of the principal men in San Francis co. A leading banker, a bishop, a chemist, two State university professors, a physician, a judge and two Protestant clergymen were selected by Parker to witness the experiment ALLENTOWN, PA., WEDNESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 11, 1871 on a large scale. TIM was done at a small lake near the seashore, some ten miles from San Francisco. Every ,drop of water was burnt up in less than fifteen minutes. The committee became alarmed, and Summerfield importunate, only half of the million deman• dcd could be raised in San Francisco, and it was proposed to try and get aid from New York, when the bishop rose Rad said that nothing would satisfy the wretch, and that extermination was justifiable. This, with the exception of Parker, was unanimously ac quiesced in. Lots were drawn, to see who of the committee should act as humanity's aveng. ing angel, and Parker was elected. The play was that the committee should tell Summer- field they would have to go to New York to raise the other half million, and induce him t accompany them, and when a good opportu nity presented itself, he was to be hurled from the train. Summerfield assented, and Cape Horn was selected as the place of his death Parker was twice tried for the murder, but the influence of the prominent men who made up the committee, undoubtedly had hint ne quitted. Though the inventor of this dreadful agent, and the immediate cause of alarm was thus re. moved In the death of Summerficld, subsequent events have revealed the fact that even now we stand In the presence of the Most alarming fate. In May last, one Charles P. Gillis, formerly a saloon-keeper at Old Spring, was found fit. tally wounded, on the North Fork of the American river below Cape Horn. In his dy- log statement he said he left Auburn alone in search of the body of Summerfleld. Arriving at the place where he was reported to have been killed, he was groping through the man, ginata brush, when he beheld the dead man. At the same instant another person arrived upon the spot, whom he recognized as a for mer partner In the liquor trade, Bartholomew Graham, better known as "Black Bart," a noted highwayman. Graham drew a revolver and forced Gilson to take an oath to do just what he was bid. Then they gave their attention to the body. There was nothing left but skeleton. But Interlaced within the bones of their search, Graham grasped the bottle and wrenched it from the bony fingers, which snapped like pipe stems. A package of man uscript was also found, a few gold coins, a pistol, dirk knife, and a pair of spectacles. Descending the gorge toward the banks of the American river, they sat down to examine their prize. Graham took the bottle and find ing it all right, said : "This is mine. You can have these manu scripts." Gilson did not think this was fair, but as he was unarmed, he could not choose but yield. They both lay down on the grass, and when satisfied that Graham was asleep, Gillsou drew the vial from his pocket, and attempted to steal away. Be had not proceeded far, how ever, before lie heard the click of a revolver, and fell mortally shot. Ile was discovered next morning, and after making his disposition charged Graham with hisipurder. Ten thou sand dollars reward have been offered by the Governor for the body of Graham dead or alive. A. few days after a lady was stopped in Marion County, by a ruffian who said lie was "Black Bart," and who answers the descrip tion of him,andinformed her that if she did not get him a thousand dollars by the next morn ing, be would set the world on tire, and to prove that he had thq power to do this, he dropped a piece of one of the pills Into a small creek, which immediately became a lake or fire, the flames rising ten feet-high, and burn ing furiously until the water was consumed. There arc those—good people, too—who earnestly assert that some terrible calamity is impending over our heads ; it may be the un spoken word of doom, which' is to return man to his original dust, and matter to its original chaos ; it may be some plague or pestilence which is to sweep through the lend, to purge it of its rapidly accumulating impurities, and I restore the minds of men to the contemplation of the purposesof their creation,to remind them of the long-neglected fealty they onto a just but indulgent Creator—or, c.in it. be that the hand of the assassion is to the instrument of our destruction leveling, with hellish rapidity, the temple whose construction exercised the ingenuity of God, and caused Him to pro nounce It "Very good." We know not how this may be ; but we know that it will not add to our repose, nor increase our sense of secu rity, to be convinced that any man holds Such power over our lives, and all that we love and I cherish, much less that it is held by nn un scrupulous murderer. The Secretary of the MaSonic Lodge in Rockingham, Va., was recently orderd to produce in court the book In which the On utcs of the lodge were kept. Re refused . and was threatened with imprisonment fur con tempt. The Judge spoke in strong terms of the evil of societies passing resolutions and orders that are liable.to come in conflict with the law of the land, and expressed his inten tion of enforcing the law against all such pro ceedings. Finally, after a long and heated argument between the attorneys, they agreed to accept an attested copy of the minutes, and the Secretary was released. PASS-ABLE JOKE. THE PREIACTED TIDAL WAVE The near approach of the time for the ap— pearance of the tidal wave which ovas predict ed some time ago, is beginning to create an excitement amounting to almost a panic in Charleston and other points along the chest of the Carolinas. Several of the citizens of Charleston, imitating the good example of the patriarch Noah, have provided themselves with yawl boats which are moored in thtir door yards, which has given rise to a great dis cussion as to whether such boats would ride the wave or be swamped by it, and should it be decided that they would stand the shock and prove arks of safety to the prudent occu pants who are expected to occupy them during the eventtbl day of the predicted flood, boats will be in demand. The Wilmington Star soys the excitement in North Carolina is very great and adds " Some excited individuals, we learn, are proposing to send their families to the mountains, while the attics In all the three and four story building are nt a premium. A. gentleman front one of the Sounds informs us that a frightened market man front that lo cality returned home late Friday night front Ibis city, where he heard of the big wave, and went around among his neighbors, arousing them front their slumbers, and retailing the terrible news of the expected billow, although it was past twelve o'clock." The Newbern Times also reports great excitement, and states that the near approach of the problematical day of doom has had the elfect of causing a "powerful religious awakenin" among the timid ones. It says : We are informed that the people living along the banks and at Beau fort, and the entire sea coast, are, in view of the tidal Wave, holding prayer meetinus night and day, in which prayers are made to avert the supposed impending calamity. Many persons arc joining the church, and a general religious feeling prevails." The excitement _ . . . has also extended to Georgia,.and the Augus ta Chronicle and Sentinel says the probable effect of the wave upon that place is discussed with great earnestness by all• classes of the people.

Ile loves hunting and fishing almost as well as he lows eating, and he loves eating a great deal better than any dyspeptic we know of. Jenks lives in Hartford, whose Times liras tells of him : One day a few weeks ago Jenks hitched up his horse, anti with an open wagon• and a friend started for the country in search of game. They aimed at woodcock, or rathei: intended to aim at them, providing they saw any. But as this is a truthful narrative, we arc com pelled to say the day wore on without- bring ing them any luck, and they were about to give it up, when their perseverance was re , warded by a sight of something decidedly gamey. They were liable artor all to wind up with rattling good sport; for before them, in the path they were pursuing, with head proudly erect and jaws widely distended, was a full grown rattlesnake, as if intending to dispute their further passage in that direction. Jenks dislikes snakes, while .Tenks's friend is as fond of snakes as it is possible for any human to be, and he expressed a desire to carry the fellow home and have him stnife.l Jenks was for shooting him, but as this proceeding would mar the beauty Of his snakeship, his friend would not permit him to do so, and told hint to stand as close to the reptile as he safely could, keeping hint at hay while lie cut a stick. The timid Jenks declined the honor, and said he should prefer to "cut stick" him self. At length a suitatile stick was obtained—a stick with a crotch on the mild, the prongs of which were about two inchei long. Jenks' friend then cautiously approached the snake, which commenced to rattle furiously and raised himself up to strike, when the man dexterously caught him just below the head in the crotch of his stick, fdrclng hint to the ground and there held him as if in a vice des pite his struggling and writhing until he ceased to move. Supposing he was dead, a string is ith a slip-noose was placed around ltis neck, and the pair charted for their vehicle with no other game than the rattlesnake. When they reached - the wagon their lifeless prize was duly dumped into the rear end of the vehicle and the pair headed for Hartford. As they rode along their thoughts naturally dwelt on the subject of snakes, and finally they became engaged in a discussion relative to the fascination which these repulsive rep tiles exert—each entertaining widely diverse opinions. The argument had become quite animated, when they were suddenly startled 1 out of all sense of proprlety, and the thread of 1 their discourse was interrupted by the clear, distinct, ominous rattle of the snake, which they hail flattered themselves WAS as dead as nn Egyptian mummy. Both of them sprang 1 from the wagon with conmiendable alacrity, 1 leaving the resuscitated rattlesnake in sole ' posseSsion of the vehicle. And the reptile 1 ; seemed to be proud of its victory. Its head was reared above the box of the wagon, and waved back and forth like a stalk of rye agitated by a gentle breeze. Unlike Crusoe he might not have been monarch of all he surveyed, lint he certainly was "boss" of the wagon. When the men sprang front the seat, the driver had presence of mind enough to seize and stop the horse, or mayhap his snakeship would have enjoyed 41 free rule to the city, leaving Jenks and his , friend to font it. How the dead reptile came '-to life was not near so much' of a mystery ns if Wilson should come to himself after Sheriff Russell had done with him. It might have been dead, but It was not stone dead ; a snake I has got to be stone dead or else it will surely be about again. The vibrating motion of the wagon loosened the slip noose, end that ex plained all. But there the snake remained In full pos. session of the wagon. Sour tithing must be done. A council of war was held. If the right sort of a man had come along just then, Jenks would have sold the establishment for half price and thrown the snake in. They finally decided they did not care to preserve the reptile's skin for stuffing, and so they determined to kill it. Jenks held the horse, while his more courageous friend, with a stout cudgel in his hand, commenced to skirmish around , the vehicle, showing a skilful degree of strategy of evading It in front and approach ing it from the rear, until nt last he dealt it a 1 stunning blow which was followed up by j more of the same sort, and 'soon the death ' rattle was heard. . It was then pitched out of the wagon, and a large stone was dropped on Its 'head some fifteen or twenty times ; but .Tenks declared he would not trust the treacherous snake in the wagon again, not if Bufiker Hill monu ment had been cropped upon it. So the sportsmen returned without any 'game after all. Thus ends this o'er true tale with eleven rattles on It. If tiny, one doubts the truth of this sketch let them ask—Jenks.
