His eyes, with the exception of the balls, were a doll, murky red, and he kept them fixed on the ground, as if it were painful to him to look up, which I found to be the case.

The ball was to be giv en at some distance from the place where the parties lived, and when the evening came the swain called for her in a chaise. They rude in silence for the first mile ; perhaps he was unspeakably happy—more, probably the words stuck in his throat ; but at length he said, "Did you ever see an owl !" "No," said she,"l never did." And he went on to tell her of a very large one, wbiaritad alighted close to his head a few days before.

In 1818, the good ship 44 Dido" left Mau ritius, on her voyage to Sumatra. She had a cargo of French manufactures on board, which her captain was to barter for cottee and spiel, with the nabobs of the Lauda Isles. After a lew days' sail.. the vessel was becalmed ; and both passengers and crew were put on short allowance of provisions and water. Preserved meats, fruits, chocolate, fine flour, and live stock, were all exhausted, with the exception of one solitary patriar chal cock, who, perched on the main-yard, was mourning his devastated harem, like Mourad Bey after the battle of die Pyra mids. The ship's cook, Neptune, a Madagas carnegro, received orders one morning to prepare this bird for dinner ; and once more the hungry denizens of the state-cab in snuffed up the delicious odor of a rout fowl. The captain took a nap in order to cheat his appetite until dinner time ; and die chief mate hovered like a guar dian-angel round the caboose, watching lest any audacious spoiler should lay -vio lent hands on the precious dainty. Suddenly a cry of terror and despair is sued from the cook's cabin, and Neptune himself rushed out, the picture of affright with both his hands twisted convulsively, in the sooty wool that covered his head. What was the matter ? Alas I in that ill starred hour the cook had slumbered at his post, and the fowl was burnt to a cin der. A lit of rage, exasperated by hunger and a tropical sun, is a fearful thing. Tho mate, uttering adreadful imprecation, seiz ed a large knife and rushed at Neptune.— At that moment, yne of the passengeis, na med Louis Bergaz, interposed to ward off the blow. The negro was saved, but his preserver received the point of the steel in his wrist, and his blood flowed freely.— ith much difficulty the other passengers succeeded in preventing him, in his turn, from attacking the mate ; but, at length, peace was restored, the aggressor having apologized for his violence. As to poor Neptune. he fell on his knees, and kissed and embraced the feet of his protector. In a day or two the breeze, sprang up, anti the Did° speedily reached Sumatra. Four years afterwards, it happened one day, that Louie Bergaz was dining at the public table of an English boarding house at Batavia. Amongst the guests were two learned men who had been tent oat by the Brl 110 Government tp inspect the coun tries lying near the equator. During din ner, the name of Bergaz happening to be pronounced distinctly by one of his acquain tances at the opposite aide of the table, the oldest of the aarans look up from his plate, and asked, quickly, "Who owns the name of Bergaz ?" "I do." ••Cunoue enough," said the raranl,'•}nu bear the same lianc as a god of Madagas car." "Have they a god called Borgaa I" ask ed Louis smiling. "Yes. And if you like, after dinner, I will show you an article on the subject, which I published in an English scientific journal." Louis thanked him ; and afterwards read as follows : "The population of Madagascar consists of a mixture of Africans, Arabs, and the aboriginal inhabitants. Then latter oc cupy the kipgddin of the Ann, and are governed by a queen. The Malagasys differ .widely from the Ethiopean race, both In their physical and moral character- Unice. They are hospitable and humane but extremely warlike,because a success ful foray furnishes them with slaves. It is a mistake to believe that the Malagasys worship the devil, and that they have at Teintingua a tree consecrated to the Evil One. They have but one temple dedica ted to the god Bergnz (beer, source, or well in the Chaldean. and gaz light, in the Ma lagasy tongue.) To this divinity they are ardently devoted, and at stated periods offer him the sacrifice of a cock, as the ancient Greeks did to .tEsculapius. Bo true it is that the languages and supersti tions of all lands and ages are linked to gether by mysterious bonds, which neith er time nor distance can destroy." Louis Bergnz thought the latter philo sophical reflections very striking. I•You can scarcely imagine,' said hie companion, "how important these remote analogies, traced out by us with so much labor and fatigue, are to the advancement of science !" Bergin bowed, and was silent. The cares .of a busy commercial life soon caused him to forget the philosopher and his - tdol namesake. After the lapse of about two years, Ber gen set out to purchase ebony at Cape St. Maria, in Madagascar; but a violent tem pest forced the vessel to stop at Simnel on the Anas Coast. While the crew were busy refitting the ship, Berg's, started off' to explore die interior Of the country.—' There are no-carnivorcius wild beasts in Madaganear ; 'hut, there is abundance of game to tempt the sportsman,' and lomis, with his gun on his shoulder, followed the chase of partridges. quails, and pheasants, for several miles, until he roadbed tha bor der of a thick bamboo jungle. There, he saw a number of the padres prostrate - 10pm the entkahmi of a large hut. were singing with one aceord a monotonous sort of hymn, whom,lptolen wits, the word Louis 1" so distinctltito nouneed, that Louis immediately,rectollect ed Om account given fain by the'eillopo 'pher iri Batavia, ' ' Impelled by very natural curiosity, he stepped forward, end peeped into the tem pliL, tOlot attentitt)mtP been inadtrir orna ment itirtintr.,_wall4 , built of bitf9txx) , co' mOototi !OA alay , 'but frethe centre ot the f it 04 .btAOO It , asst lip itigutatrip, twi r t o i . lip o n to y , ok.: tr4ti" I itpli , ' V,k.f" El" CITTYSBURU, PA,.FRIDAY EYENING, APRIL ii, 1851. The idol, although' far from being a An. jelled work of art, was yet far superior in form end' worknianship• to the orilitiery divinities of savage nations. The figure represented a man dressed in European coatame, with a -wide straw hat on his head and a striped muslin cravat round his Heck. He was, standing in tlieattitude of 'te who was intercepting a blow, and his right hand was stained with blood. There was even an attempt, Louis Bergaz thought te,iraitale his own features ; and the god had thick black whiskers meeting tinder his chin, precisely such as Louis had worn in MIS. The dress, too, resembled l hie own ; and the cravat marked in the corner L. 8., was one which he had given Neptune the cook. In a few minims, a procession of natives entered the temple; they kindled a tire in a. sort of chafing dish ; and placing it on a dead cock, burnt the sacrifice before their god with loud ac clamation. Bergaz, unluckily; was not able to preverve his gravity during this pious ceremonial. He burst into a fit of laughter, and wan instantly seized by the offended worshippers: With shouts of rage they were about to sacrifice him to their outraged deity, when the sound of symbols announced the approach of the Chief of the tribe. The high priest met him at the door and announced the sacri ligioui conduct of the stranger. The in censed chieftain siezed a Malayan crease and ran -m take vengeance on the offender., Borgia turned and looked at him ; each uttered a cry of surprise ; the next mo ment, the chief was embracing the feet of Louis. “Neptune, old fellow ! what is all this 1” asked Bergas, pointing to the figure.— "Bergaz is my god !" cried the negro stri king his breast. Then, to the unbounded astonishment of all present, the European and the chief walked off lovingly together towards the palace of the latter. On their way thither. Neptune related his history to his Wend. The powerful Redman, sovereign of Madagascar. had concluded a treaty of peace with his ene my, Rene. The wife of the latter being a woman of genius, was named queen of the Anas, by an edict of Radamas ; and this lady was sister of Neptune, ex-cook of the Dido. - No sootier was sheveated on the throne than she released her brother from his menial situation, and gave him absolute au thority over the small province of Simpai. Neptune's fist act was an endeavor to manifest his gratitude, after the strange fashion of his people, to his protector Der gas ; and we fancy how cordial was the reception, how warm and affectionate the welcome, bestowed on the living benefac tor, whose wooden sembl•tnce he and his people worship as a god. The grateful negro loaded him with presents, and sent his most skillful workmen to assist in re pairing the ship. Probably to this day the god Bergaz may still be worshipped in Simpai ; and the ,Esculapean cork may still excite the wonder, and fill the note-books of travelling philosophers. S1;s1'1:..C1()lis CA,F The Penns) Iranian relates the ease of a Mr. Samuel Peabody who was arrested by the watchmen on suspicion of being intoxicated. The Mayor desired to know what was Samuel's opinion of the matter. With swne appearance of embarrassment he gave the following narrative "Well, Sir, I moot have been drunk, and I moat not ;—I can't pretend to any for certain.—The fact is I've done so lit. tle that way, that I'll be blamed if I know when lam drank. I dare say that some of those police gentlemen are better judges titan I em, when it comes to that. But I'll tell yon exactly what I did and how I felt, and if your Honor concludes it was drunk, why Pll pay the fine and say oath. ing more about it. You see I was trom bled with the wind and took four glasses to start it. Soon after I felt a buzzing in Imy ears, and the he-cups were awful trou blesome, but that, I thought, was the wind coming off. Then it seemed to me as I ! walked along the street. that an awning post or water plug, every now and then, woull jump right before me, as if it meant to head. me off. I was a little mad j at this and struck one of them with my knuckles, but I found that it was of no !use, for my lists got the worm of it. It seemed like all the gas lights had faces to them ; some winked and some grinned at me, and one that stood before the hotel, nodded as if it was acquainted with me, and made a sort of align towards thodoor, as much as to say, "Go in, Sam. and get something to drink." Which I did.— When I came out there was the greatest to do that I ever saw, I was share there was an earthquake, for the houses and steeples were all staggering about, and the , street was rocking just like a cradle. it was a most sublime spectacle. so I fetchrul up against a pump and held on while I took a good look at the magnificent scene. No panorama could come up to it; houses, trees and fences, all rearing and plunging like wild horses I The sight was worth a dollar and a half; ii I have to pay a fine I don't care. for I got the value of the nton- ey. And so, if your Honor's anywsys suspicious that I was drunk s , I'll foot the • bill right away. without any grumbling." His Honor was a little suspicious,. and Mr. Peabody being a man of his word, I promptly pulled out his wallet and made a' satisfactory settlement.
