Mr. Sanderson, of Metal hill, Sunder land, furnishes us with a somewhat novel mode of catching mice, which ho practised with effect, some years ago. Having fixed a trencher near a shelf two phis near the centre upon which it swung, ho placed upon the lighter end some bait, and underneath it a mug of water. As the mice ran across the trencher to the bait, tho lighter aide went. down, and they were thrown into the water, and drowned. In this way, he says, he caught as many as seventy in ono night. Haring had occasion to try the plan again, a short time ago, ho found, to his surprise, the bait eaten, but no mice caught, and at last discover ed that while some of the mice crossed the trencher to reach the bait, others held on by the edge of the trencher, and prevented its precipitating their companions into the water. `r3 PI 28 09 10 50 5 00 41 5:. BIM 45 50 7 50 s:i.l:4 x i Lost Wedding Ring. The Seotsitah newspaper relates the following curious case of the recovery of a lost marriage .ring: " About the end of July or the begining of August last, a 'woman named Catharine Fergu son, the wife of a miner named YeLean, at Clifton, near the head of Loch Lo mond, lost her marriage ring whilst obgaged in putting in or building pests, and, notwithstanding that, every search was made for it at the time, it could nett° found. About a fortnight ago the eat brought, a rat into the house, and around the neck of the rat was the missing ring. It, is supposed, as• rats are known to carry off coins or pieces of silver or gold, that the ring bad been taken to the rat's nest, where it had gone'over the neck of one of the young ones, and remained there until the ani mal had advanced in growth ? and curi ously enough, been captured by the cat. Mrs. McLean. who had been about a year married, was no jess.rojoiced in getting posse s sion again of her lost ring than surprised at the very singular way in which it was recovered." IEI New .Eleetrie Conductor.—The power of straw as a conductor of electricity has been realized in the south of France, no less than eighteen communes in the neighborhood of Tarbes having been provided with conductors composed of straw. Experiments show that an electrical shock snfliciently powerful to kilt an ox may be discharged by a single straw. seirAt an examination in theprimary department of a Pittsfield school on Tuesday of last week, the listeners were " brought down " by the answer of a piveaile when asked whore whales were caught anti of what use they yam.

Some Sense. • L -:40 4.* • "TRUTH Is MIGHTY, AND WILL PREVAIL." Sometimes too Fastidious. A very worthy gentleman of Rouen is at present receiving a, fortune which came to hint with the drawing of a ceisk u in the following curious nrui ner. Oh ed by the state of his health, last sum mer, to change of air, he wont to the seashore at rillora-sur-ater, near Tron vine ; and, walking on the beach, he no ticed that a lad, who was also prome nadingat there with his f 'her, had found a sealed bottle among e sea-weed.— The father bade his c to " throw down the dirty thing,. d not to be soiling his fingers;" aeon which the in valid picked up the cast w ay bottle and took it with him to his gings.

Rotary Cannon.—A cannon has been invented, which can be fired at the rate of sixty times per minute. The piece is a brass gun of the usual shape, mounted on wheels, and so constructed that a rotary cylinder constitutes the breech, which contains four charges,'re plenished by means .of a hopper, and find as rapidly as a man can work an ordinary lover backward and forward. The piece is discharged by electricity, and from this results what is believed to be au important and valuable dis covery. By means of the battery and wires connecting with the cylinder by which ignition is caused, • the cylinder becomes perfectly electrized, which keeps it as cool as if constantly bathed in ice. On firing two hundred rounds in rapid succession pt the rate of about thirty rounds per minute, it was found that at the end of that time and with out using the ewab once, the breech was much oolder than when tho firing commenced. A Good Test.—The rule of the road, says an exchange, is a very good test of the difference between a gentleman and a blaekguatd. Whenever we meet a man, whether in a chaise or with an ox team, who turns out and, gives us more than half the road, we respect him as a gentleman. But whenever we moot a young man, as we occasional ly do, who drive rapidly on, without turning out a hair's breadth, we pity him with all our heart, as a poor mise rable follow—hosyever bright his but tons, however fragrant his cigar. A Beautiful Thought —When engi neers would bridge 4 steam, they often carry over at first but a sinL,lo thread. With that, they next stretch a wire across. Then con tinue,until a foundation is laid for planks; and now the bold engineer finds safe footway and walks from side to eide. So God takes from us some golden thread of pleasure, and stretches it hence into heaven. Then ho takes a child, and then a friend.— Thus he bridges death, and teaches the thoughts of the most timid to find their way hither and thither between the shores. A Race of Uncle Necis.—A new race of blacks is said to have been discovered in the interior of New South Wales, " who have no hair on the top of their heads, the place where the wool ought to grow."

There lived long ago in one of the mountainons counties in Western Vir ginia many Dutchmen, and among them one named Henry Snyder; and there were likewise two brothers, call ed George and JakeFul wiler-they were all rich, and each owned a mill. Henry Snyder was subject to fits of derange ment, but they were not of such a aft ture as to render him disagreeable to any one. Ho merely coaceived himself to be the Supremo Ruler of the (havens, and, while under the infatuation, bad himself a throne built, on which he set to try the cases of all who offended him, and passed them off to heaven or hell, as his burner prompted—he personating• both Judge and culprit. It happened one day that some dim: culty 000nrred between Henry Snyder and the Fulwilers, on account of their mills ; when to be avenged,- Henry Snyder took along with him a book in which he recorded his judgments, and mounted his throne to try their causes. Ile was heard to pass the following jud_gment: Having prepaged himself, (acting as Judge and yet **pending for the se cused,) he called George Fulwilor. "Shorgo Fulwiler, stand up. What bast you been doiu' in dia lower world r "An I Lort, I does not know." " Well, Shorge Fulwiler, hasn't yon got a mill ? " Yes, Lort, I hash." "Well, Shorgo Fulwilor, didn't you never take too much toll r, " Yes, Lort, I hash—when der water was low and mien stones wash dull, I take a little too much toll." "" Well, Shorn Fulwiler, you must go to der left, mit der goats." " Well; Shon Fulwiler, now you stand up. What hash 'you been duin' in this lower world F" [Tho trial proceeded throughout pre cisely like the former, and with the same result.] Now I tries mineself. Henry Sny der I Henry Snyder ! stand up.

"Well, Henry Snyder, didn't yon take too ingeh toll?" jitikAl llo 6o ll CH has taken a leette too mach toll." lia ••.••• " But, Henry Snyder; cat did yon do vid dor toll ?" "AM! Lord, I gives it to the poor." ...Pausing.) " We:l, Henry Snyder, you must go to der right, mid der sheep; but it is a Gm tiglit squeeze." , Ring Worst Remedy.—Tho Fayette ville Observer publishes the following recipe . for the cure of ring worm and tatter "Beat a fire shovel or a piece of iron to a red-z-put a handrail of shelled corn on the heated iron—tako a cold smooth ing iron and press on the burning corn, and there will be a kind of oil that will gather os the iron, which will bo mire to cure 'any kind of tatter, if applied two-or throe times." serEitrsordinary as it may appear, says an exchange, a piece of brown pa per, folded and placed between the up per lip and the gum, will stop bleeding, of the nose. Try it. To Prevent Moths in-Carpets.—Rub or strew around the edge of the carpet and on them, salt and pepper, and they will not eat them. Price of an Bugle.—in the rural (di triets of Persia, there is a small kind .of eagle which is trained to fly at game upon the ground. For a bird of this breed, peculiarly skilful, one of the Princes of that country lately gave sii horses, from his stable, and seventeen peasants with their families, serfs upon his estates ! A Yid(l.—The dairy farm of Zadoc Pratt, of Greene county, New York, kept 20 cows in 1858, which yielded 6500 pounds of butter, and brought from 22 to 27 cents per pound, or over $l5OO. lcil — The diary of Washington just published, informs us that, when he male his grand tour through the Nor thern States in 1789, he took with him his slave Billy, his faithful attendant through the Revolutionary war. It is very fortunate that General Washington did not make his grand tour seventy years later, and that he did not take Michigan is his route, or he would have found himself incarcerated in the State prison for ten years be came) he had introduced his "slave 13,1- ly" into the State. Nor is this all. If similar laws had prevailed in the Nor thern. States during the Revolutionary war, ho would have been marched off to the Penitentiary for having with him " his faithful attendant." General Washington, according to the black re publican code, was a criminal to bo pun ished by tea year* incarceration. sir The Republican party is a queer institution. Some of its leaders advo cate Free Trade; some of them are rampant for a Protective Tariff. Some of them want Cuba; some of them don't.

Proportionate to the vote, Massachu setts contains more Abolitionists than' any of the other free States. And it is a remarkable fact, that wherever this sort of fanaticism has taken hold of the people, there also abounds religious big otry, as well as an oppressive ititeier suce against that class of citizens who were born on the other side of the At lantic. We mean to say, as a• general thing, that Abolitijosiats ape -Know Nothings, and Know Nothings of the free State Abolitionists. We desire to =lithe attention of our readers to a few extracts from the speech of John C. Tucker, Esq., a member of the Massachusetts Legisla lature front the city of Bostqn, on the miserable proposition, which passed the Legislature of that State, to amend the Constitution, by providing that, before a naturalized citizen shall be entitled to vote, he shall have resided two years in the United States subsequent to .his naturalization. Among other argaments made use of in favor of the proposition, was the parity of elections. Mr. Tacker thus answers this argument: "The gentleman has gone into the elections for argument; well, let min follow him ; and let us see the compara tive abases by this foreign population. I have lived in Boston thirty-three Sears ; I have a family here, and ex pect to live hero the remainder of my days, if I am not driven out ,of it by such bigotry and persecution ! as this proposed measure. I have some small property hero; though I am taxed enough for that. (Laughter) But I mast confess that I never expected to see the elective franchise abused as it was in the last election. What I saw I know; and must thank the gentleman for affording mo an opportunity to tell it; Talk about abuses of the elective franchise! Why, sir, I have soon men —native 'born .Americans—dragged from gambling houses; I have seen men—no, boys nineteen yens' of age— go np to the Tolls and vote; nave seen the filth of North street, the gambling moms, and the lewd danceballs, scrap ed together, to elevate a certain person to the position of member of Congress. I [say, know it. Was it the'" ignor ant adopted citizen" who was found there ? Not at alt. ‘i-15111,016-1-aa der water ty . whattivill make this house almost shudder,—and I refer to the pablic press of Boston to bear me out in the statement—that the very Judge on the bench did leave a Court of Justice, and go down—down even to Clash's Saloon, in North street, to make political capi tal for his favorite candidate for Con-' greys. (Sensation.) If it had been a poor adopted citizen who did that, what a hue and cry there would be! But I defy any man or. this floor to show mo vrliere a foreigner abused the voting privilege in the last election. I was there, and know all about it. - I could go farther. I have said that the lowest. place§ were raked and scmpedlbr voters to elect a certain Republican leader to Congress. More than that, these very men were bought and paid for, to go to the polls and answer to names upon the cheek-list of some who-were dead, and others who were serving out their sentence in our criminal institutions.— It hapened to be my good or bad luck to be present atone of the voting places ; and I had to send for eight additional Policemen, because the design became apparent that these men were going to snatch the ballot-boxes in the probable event of the De necrotic candidate being elected. (Sensation.) The Akers of that ward can certify to the truth of what I say. Now, will the gentleman show mo when and where, in the his tory ofMassacbusetts, frauds like these were perpetrated by adopted citizens? It, cannot be done. In view of these facts I think,r. Speaker, it ill beelines the 1 , gentlema from Worcester to charge abuses of he elective franchise upon adopted tizen,s, while the conduct, or supporte of the measare, in attaining their own party cods, has sounded the lowest depths of political degradation and infamy. Let them, sir, come be fore this house with clean hands, before attempting on the miserable plea of abuse of prercgative to disfranchise or abridge the political rights of any class of their fellow citizens." Th' people of Maryland very well know that through fraud of tho most outrageous kind Know Nothing:ism has secured power here. They ktow, too, who were the instruments in thus bring ing disgrace on our institutions and making our elections a farce. They know that it was the American filth of Baltimore—men born within the limits of tho monumental city—native Ameri cans, among whom is not invidious to mention Gambrill, Cropp, Corrio, Ford, Lemon, Barrett, &e. We have not space to follow further the able speech. The truths Mr. Tuck er presented had no influence whatever uppoon the Republican side of the House. Thic proposition was adopted, and,it will stand to the end of time as a mon ument of their intolerance and bigotry. The fact that, Irish and Scotch and Eng lish and German blood coursed through the veins of our fathers, and secured us greatneee, power and liberty, should alone have been all powerful against thiestigma upon our cousins,--"patri otic, determined men, devoted to our institutions&ad ready always to rush into danger Olen thasauso or the coun try requires it."—Hagerttriton Mail.

So it seems that " nobody pretended, that John Read was a bettor proiee tionist than Judge Porter !"
