On motion of Mr. DARNELL the calling of the roll was dispensed with. Tho Clerk read tho journal of yesterday’s proceedings. Mr. DARNELL offered a resolution amend ing the 17th Rule so as to make it read “ma jority” instead of two-thirds, also changing the 19th Rule so as to read “Cushing’s Man ual” instead of “Jefferson’s. *’ These resolutions went over nndcr the rules. Mr. TWEEDY, from the Committee ap pointed to wait on tho Governor, reported that Governor Bullock would communicate with the General Assembly to-day in writing. On motion of Mr. DARNELL the Gover nor’s communication was read. The com munication of the Governor was as follows : Atlanta, July 7,1870.

Mr. KAURIS said bo did not know whot course should be taken in regard to the mes sage; ho thought it would be useless to refer it to a committee, as it was a question for the whole body to decide, and he would be glad to bear from some one. Mr. CANDLER moved that the Legislature adjourn sins dir, on which the yeas and nays worn ealled and the motion 'lost by yeas 7, nays 19, as follows: Yau—Messrs.

Rjehaidaon, Sher man, Smith 7tb, Smith SCth, Speer, Traywick, Wallace and Welch—19. Mr. HARRIS moved to adjourn until Monthly. * ^ Mr. CANDLER asked leave to introduce bill. The PRESIDENT decided the motion to adjourn was in order and debatable. Hr. CANDLER opposed and argued if the Senate adjourned at all it should bo until the 15th. Mr. 1UGBEE said it had been the misfor tune of the Legislature to have hod to adjourn ftomtime to time, but now there was a pros pect of their being: able to do something. A bill had passed ona branch of C.-ugreaa, and was likely to go through the other at a very early day; but the necessity for adjournment existed and he aaw no impropriety m adjourn ing until Monday. Mr. WOOTEN objected to adjournment as a waste of money. The people were get ting very sensitive on the subject of these fre quent adjournments, as it affected their pock ets. They bad been spending money since January and had effected nothing. Legisla tion was necessary, and he aaw no necessity for adjournment, or if they dl<l »dj. J.O.U be .Pie Ulfc. Mr. CAMPBELL replied in an excellent speech, arguing that tho constant adjourn ments were the misfortune, not the mult of the Ix-gislatare, saying that if those who ar- gned for adjourning sine die could prove that, by no adjourning, titles to property would bo secured, then be might vote for it They were responsible for their actions os individuals, and as Car as his constituents were concerned, they had never grumbled at the expense of the Legislature, bn* had said to him go and do what yon can. Mr, HARRIS said he had listened long and patiently to charges made upon the Legisla ture of outrages upon the people of Georgia by remaining here without legislating. He did not wish to reflect upon others; they ] act conscientiously before man and God. did not wish to say that they had spoken for buncombe, bat they should not say that they alone were the guardians of the public inter ests. A heavy and grave responsibility rested upon tho Senators from the Eleventh and Twenty-Fourth Districts. Thoy could have K rented the unseating of the colored inem- s, instead of which they favored, it and passed that measure, and benco they were now living under a Provisional Government These were stubborn and uncontrovertible tacts. A motion lias been made to adjourn till Monday , another to adjourn sine die; another to adjourn until the Governor saw fit to call the Legisla tore together. He (Mr. Harris) thought that measures of economy dictated the first course. They were fold to look at the tax payers. He had no hesitation in saying that the two Sena tors . ad cost the State $500,000 by tho conrs- they had taken. Ho was willing to say they tad done what they thought right, bat they had acted from mistaken judgment Mr. WOOTEN asked Mr. Harris if he could give any valid reason for adjournment. Mr. HARRIS i.iidj he v-mld. If Congress did not act beforo its adjournment thc-n he was in favor of .proceeding with legislation, bnt he did aay that a little prudence and caution were neoesaary. But if Congress adjourned then ho wonld go on as if no military authority was paramount in the State. Some very im portant committee* of investigation had been appointed and they wonld bo ready to report, in all probability, by Monday, and they could then go on with legislation. As to bills, ho waa in donbt, but whatever Congress did or did not do his course was fixed. Tho Stato government was accused of squandering money. With all their extravagance, am there was a great equality os to picking money, the present administration had spent over SI,000,000 less than the Government under Jenkins in the tone length of time. He did not aecnse the former administration of squan dering money, bnt simply mentioned this os an answer to the charge that the present ad ministration had been spending money reck- leftsly. Mr. WOOTEN inquired if tho Senator's eonktituents were satisfied with the course of the Legislature. Mr. HARRIS said he did not know, he had not consulted them. His motives were con scientious, and he was ready to render his ac count to them. As to adjournment he was willing to set here, but in their present con dition lie thought it advisable to pause and see what Congress would do, and then they could be aware as to what they could or could not do. Mr. SPEER offered an amendment that members should not be entitled to per diem during recess. The PRESIDENT decided tho amendment not in order. Mr. SMITH of the 7th thought this a time to act with deliberation, discretion and pru deuce. He wonld like to go to work to morrow if their work could be permanent and lasting, but ha thought it would be prudent to wait until Monday. As to this hue and ciy of stealing from the Treasury, it was an old affair; they had heard of it for yean end years, administration after administration. If the gentlemen from the 11th and 34th were sincere in their arguments for economy, let them show their frith by their works and re fuse the per diem and mileage. Jle (the speaker) lid taken it, although h. did not ba- lieve in their receiving the $0 par (Hi 1 m. trad if M* constituents were n-t satisfied they need not send him back. After some further debate the Senate ad- journed until 12 o'clock Monday. HOUSE.OF REPRESENTATIVES. ATnAXTA, .Wednesday, July C, 1870. At 12 o'clock H.

The worthy men who composed them are to be credited not only with good intentions, but with great learning and high character; but most of them have long ago put away childish {things, and some have even forgotten that tncy ever had any childish things to pnt away. The train ing through which they have pMBedTfesd the course of life which they have felt it their duty to follow while in the ministry, have not been such as to give them any practical knowledge of the subject of amusements. Tim. majority of them suppose that the practice ofajjjaost every kind of pastime is inconsistent with their profession, and it is natural enough that what they themselves abjure they should be slow to allow to others. I confess that the picture of these venerable bishops and doctors and elders, with their sil very hair and their snowy neckcloths, sitting in solemn convocation to decide what pastimes are good for young folks and what are evil, wears to my eye a shade of comicality. No one can doubt that these exodlent men are thoroughly qualified to disouss tho philoso phical principles underlying the whole subject of amusement; to show what uses sport and recreation are designed to subserve in the di vine economy, and what general rules should, therefore, govern us in our practice of .them. | Bnt this, wnfehflfey are perfectly competent to do, and which is the very thing that most of all needs doing, is precisely the thing which they have left undone; and the thing for which they had no qualificationsjwhatever, namely the de- bim again, and lie was as quiet os I ever saw him—almost cheerful.

He is now Governor Stevenson's tobacco in spector at Louisville—a handsome man, with a black moustache, and large glaring black eyes, which seldom or never wink, bnt look out like a tiger’s, with silent ferocity.

Ilia last appearance in proximity to the “field of honor” was oc casioned by a mooted duel between two Cin cinnati editors, which never came to a shot. People who know him, send for Tom in case of a duel, just as you send for a physician and the preacher when yon are sick. He was. wounded st Buena Vista, and he was with Henderson, Crittenden, Lopez and the rent, when they invaded Cuba. During the war he was on Breckinridge's staff, and the affairs of private blood fin which ho has been engaged are innumerable. For instance, be warn Ben JoUno-•- —< h. Kitten Tom White.

They say it was dreadful to hear him go on. I don't know what became of Ben Johnson. “Oh! yes, bless your soul! Tom Hawkins scared John Pope moat dead once.

V Railroad Novelty—-Taltlng Water Wbllr Running with Lightning Speed, A novel method of supplying locomotives with water while in motion, which has been for some time in use in England, is abont to be introduced in this country. It has already been experimented on by the Hadoon River Railroad Company, and with the greatest sne- Rcccntiy, st Montrose station, near 1‘cck- skiU, there was constructed in the center of tho track a trough 1,200 feet in length, 15 inches in depth, and 18 inches wide. This was lined with sheet-iron heavily painted. The trough is perfectly straight, will hold 10,000 gallons of water, and is fe4 by a con, pie of springs to the north and east e fit Abont the same time that the construction of the trough was commenced, locomotive No. 43 was token to the repair shop. Here, in a quiet manner, skilful workmen in a short time fitted her ont with ingeniously-construct ed machinery connected with her tsadsr to draw the water from the trough. From the man-hole in the tender, down through the latter to a position inside of the bind trucks, runs an ingeniously-formed pipe. The pipe curls as it leaves the man-holo, and after forming a half circle is fitted with a nozzle at its end, which always points the way the en gine is going. An iron bar is fastened to the nozzle, which connects with Another bar from a point near the fireman’s box. When the lo comotive approaches the trough, tho nozzle can be dropped instantaneously into the water while the train is , tui-ty — iVT., — hour. The nozzle sinks only. to the depth of two inches into the trough, yet, when the 1,200 feet are passed over, 1,034 gall ns of water will have been drawn into the tender. The first experiments in taking water by this new method, were made a few days ago. The locomotive dashed over the rails at the rate of thirty-five miles an hour. As the noz zie struck the water the fluid rushed into the tender with the roar of a young Niagara, and when the trough was left behind, the tender was fulL The experiment was a great success and gave complete satisfaction to the officers of the Hudson River Railroad Company.

Men, who never in their lives saw a figure danced, and who do not know spades from clubs, have declaimed from their pulpits, and have voted in the assembles, against cards and dancing. Here is one of the deliverances of these relig ious bodies: ‘Resolved, That the fashionable amusement of promiscuous dancing is entirely nnscrip- tural, and eminently and exclusively that of the world which lieth in wickedness, and so wholly inconsistent with the spirit of Christ and with the propriety of Christian deport ment and that parity of heart which bj lowers are bound to maintain, as to rei not only improper and injurious for professing Christians either to partake in it or to qualify their children for it by teaching them the art, bnt also to call for the faithful and judicious exercise of discipline on the part of church sessions when any one of the members of the churches have been guilty.” —.. . Air. Vincent tells of “an amiable and most excellent clergyman who happened to be pre sent one evening when some young ladies went through a quadrille. He looked o-^-with^^m apparent pleasure. The next mc^S " rallied by some of his townsm- °u countenanced dancing by his preset ho roundly denied the charge, and asserted that no dancing had taken place, but only, as he expressed it, a most beautiful exercise.” Very hkely this clergyman voted for that reso lution. Red eland—A General Indlnw War Appro* livntlcd o From the Washington Chronicle, 4th.] It is feared in official quarters that the Indi ans in the northwestern and southern reserva tions are intent on war. Several ■■■■J and letters from General Sheridan have been received at the War Department, giving a gloomy account of affairs in those reserva tions. From these dispatches it seems that the Indians are on the war path, seven different bands, fully armed and equipped, having passed over the Pacific railroad, just below Fort Saunders, on Monday last, for the osten sible purpose of going down to hunt for the elk; bat neither Generals Sherman fir Sheri dan believe that this is their mission. They are already off their reservations, and evi dently mean mischief. General Sherman says tliat the whole Indian people scqa*to frauM* -I— 11 ~i—r sswJithm, aud tliab XTOIU £l-ll?nti information he receives from all sources he has no donbt that they mean war. General Sheridan in his reports to General Sher man, states that he found a number of the bands over 1,000 miles from their reserva tions. In a number of their villages he foond large quantities of stolen property, which they had accumulated from the raids they had made. The accounts of tho atrocities of the For South Indians are confirmed, and General Sheridan looks every day for an out» break from the Sioux.

Iu the trial of the celebrated Stephens case, before the United States District Court, in At lanta, April 2d, 1870, Mr. Akerman argued that there was no civil law in Georgia, under the operations of the Act of December, 1869, until the Stato should be admitted by Con gressional action. Stephens waa arrested by order of Major General Teny, the District Commander. Mr. Lochrane, counsel for the defendant, said: He desired to facilitate mailers, be did not wish to traverse a troth, bnt the Respondent had stated that, murder had been committed, without saying when, where, or by whom. His client desired the fullest investigation, bnt he did not see how the esse could proceed un less that information was given; it was net sary, if only to give the .Court jurisdiction. The Court said that if the return of the Re spondent was not sstisfeetevy, he (Mr. Loch- rune) could make objection to it. Mr. Lochrane said if the gentleman on the other side insisted, they would traverse the troth of the return, but that it was a bard matter when there was no specific crime men- been proposed that Slidell should insult Douglas in the drinking saloon of the Senate, and, if he resented it, shoot him down. I wrote to Dongles atonoe, but knowing his habits so well, of leaving letters unopened for days and weeks together, I sent the letter to a friend and commanded him to make Douglas open it and peruse it, that he might be pre pared. And in that letter I said: ‘If you are unshed to the walk telegraph for Tom Hawkins, of Louisville.' “Well, I came on-from the Sontli soon after that, and went up with George Pugh to see Douglas. There we found nobody to pay much attention to ns. Donglas seemed ab sorbed with something else, and looking ont of his library, across the hall, I saw Roger A. Pryor and Albert G. Brown, of Mississippi, step into another room. I asked no questions, bat came away, and soon afterward started for New York. When I got to the Relay House there was abont three minutes delay, as the Western train had joat come in, and I saw get out of it and step toward the Washington train—who but Tom Hawkins! “Tom,” I sried, “what are yon doing here?" “What are yon doing away from Washing ton?” said Tom. “Going to New York.” “New York, what? Do yon get me here and then run oft’ to New York? Doughs has s$-nt for me. The fight’s on!” “I’ll get off my baggage at Baltimore," said I, “and return to Washington to-night," And with that the trains steamed contrary- wise. “I foond out the matter at'AV'asliiiigton that same evening. The conspirators hud arranged to fern an Insult apon Douglas, sind then, if he challenged, ho would lose the vote of the North. If be refused, nobody in the South would touch him. The creature * of the con- than was absolutely necessary in argument. If tho powers of the reeontdrnetion acts were lawfully given to the District Commander, then he had the right to make arrests. He was the law-maker for the time being, and he could determine what were crimes; he could - nd • hi hiws :uid ni;ik- m-w. Tlu ir pow ers were nothing if they did not include that. Military Commanders h.ul made arrests for which no law either of State or United States provided. Gen. Teny said he had arrested the petitioner for three causes. He was the Government, and if he made the arrest as the Government he had a right to state tho cause. If he was not the Government, then he had no right to make the arrest* If he was the gov erning power, then it was one of his functions to declare what was and what was not a crime. The Court asked if Mr. Akerman meant to say that Gen. Terry could declare that a crime " hi eh Wits not recognised a-. Mi.-h l»v th • ute or by common law. Mr. Akerman said yes he meant all that. General Terry was not here to execute old laws. How could there be ony law in Georgia except on sufferance, when the acts say no State Government exists. If that is so, then there could be no State law. There were cer tain acta made criminal by military order that were not criminal previously. There was a new stato of society, and it required new laws. Gen. Meade had made a law, and had collected taxes net provided for by Law. The learned gentleman argued that the powers of military commanders were entirely discretion ary, and if Gen. Terry was to be restricted to law now, then the acta of his predecessors must be illegal - ~ The Court repeated the question. Mr. Akerman said that years ago Judge Story had tried to induce Congress to adopt the common law of Enghmd as the common law of the United States, and Congress re fused. There was at the present time no com mon law recognized iu the Courts of Georgia.^ Congress Lad made General Terry the admin- - istrator and interpreter of the law. Agn to Murry | SIMMONS’ | mHE symptoms of liver A few* afternoons since, as one Of the late graduates of a local medical college was re turning to his office from a stroll about town, ho was surprised and delighted to discover what lie conceived to be a young lady patient awaiting him. In the short moment occu pied in walking from the yard gate to the office door his mind was active in making con jectures as to the probablo character of her malady and in recalling the contents of all the medical books he had ever read. As he ap proached nearer and saw her elegant costume and returned her stately and refined bow, he was somewhat inspired with visions of Green backs and cancelled debts. “Well, my young lady,” the graduate said, with all the dignity and consequence of an old practitioner, “what can I do for you?” “You can marry me," abruptly replied the strange young lady, with her sweetest smile and mo6t delightful inclination of the head. ‘Yon can have me for a wife." The poor young doctor blushed, trembled, jazed with wonder at her, when the young adv, seeing that he needed to be reassured, glided quickly to him, and resting her hand upon his shoulder, whispered, “Do not be as tonished. Oh! I have loved you so. I have gazed at yon often, and my heart hjm said, ‘He ought to be my husband.’ ” The victim tried io escape, but she gently held him. In his desperation he at length found tongue to say: “I am sorry, madam, that I cannot gratify you. Iam a poor j roung"—bnt he got no farther, for she sealed lis lips with a kiss, and in tho gentle accents of her gentlest manner said: “Oh! what if you are poor, dearest? We shall still be so happy.

No* He blessed his stars that she was not Bat after the lapse of an hoar or so, he began to feel desirous of returning to his office. It was growing dark. He at length summoned np courage to approach his own room. He cautiously peeped around the fence and she was gone. Since then his neighbors havo observed that he always peeps tremblingly around the fence when he approaches his office, and his friends have noticed that he wears his coat and hat even daring these hot days, os if to be prepared to bolt at the shortest notice. It is supposed that this yonng lady (like many others credited with sound sense) is a monomaniac on the subject of man iage. She is good-looking, and was on the occasion above mentioned handsomely dressed. To effect a cure of her malady, of the char acter of which he was so well convinced, would have been a splendid opening: for the yonng doctor, but he has expressed himself as averse to making the attempt He is afraid that if he were to succeed in this case, he would be obliged to moke a specialty of such practice, and that his nerves wonld sink under the trial. other conditions favor its manifestation, on a lino which forms tho segment of a circle.

The last great earthquake in Mexico was on Juno 19, 1858, but the coarse seems to have formed an acute angle to the line taken by the present one. The former extended throughout tho valley of Mexico, following the confignration of the central mountain range; tho present was felt lower down, be tween the mountains and the Pacific; and, judging by the traces of its progress in mid ocean, appears to havo moved in quite a dif ferent orbit of undulation. Oar knowledge of the phenomena of earthquakes is as yet too imperfect to admit of any guesses as io their periodicity. They appear to have a certain imperfect regularity of recurrence, according to tho extent of the space they travel over. For instance, the earthquake that overthrew Herculaneum and Pompeii oc curred in the year 73, tho city of Antioch near ly succumbed to another in 115, the great earthquake of Lisbon was in 1755, and that of New Madrd, Mo., in 1811, so that between the two ancient ones we have had an interval of fifty-two years, between the two of modem date an interval of fifty-six years, and assum ing the present as one of the major convulsions, a farther interval of fifty-nine years.

Gen. Sherman indorses these opinions, and states that he feels more concern abont the state of Indian affairs than ho ever did before.

From a lecture recently delivered by (be head master of the Lee<L School of Art: “The secret of the success of great men is that there ia no secret st all; and this is a se cret whioh, though proclaimed upon the housetops before multitudes of hearers, will always be believed to be a secret, aud for no better reason than that it is the easiest and most plausible way of explaining the difference that we see to exist between ourselves and those wo acknowledge to be great If we would feirly and honestly take to tho ac knowledgment that while we have slept great men havo worked; while wo have been self- indulgent and prone to luxury, they have been self-denying and innred to hardships, ’Vjb should lose something in the good opinion we have of onrselves; bnt we shonld pain a great deal in self-knowledge, and dispel a mystery that shonld be no mystery at olL There seem to be common elements of character in ail great men—almost the identical basis of character in the one as in the other, the differ ent vocations explaining any minor differences that are to be found in them. Thus I find precisely the same features in the character cf Michel Angelo and the Duke of Wellington- two men, living three centuries apart, in (lib- fere at countries—one a great artist and the other a great warrior. Iu them, os in evefy instance I have yet studied, the distinguishing A-atnre is an intenso love of work—work of the kind that fell to the lot of each to do. An other feature is indomitable courage; and the last is a never-dying perseverance. Thongh I have carefully studied the histories of many of the greatest men, in order, if I could, to discover the source of their greatness, I havin' never yet come upon one great life that iiag lacked these three features—love of work, un failing courage, and perseverance.” “Shoo Ply** In Church. The Lima (Ohio) Gazette says: ;i A lady in one of our churches rested her head on the back of the pew in front, as all de vout people do in time of prayer, bnt in the pew before her sat a yonng man who neither bowed his head nor kneeled. A beautiful plume nodded and danced upon the head of the fair one behind him, occasionally touch ing the neck of the youth, who evidently cor* sidered it a fly or some other troublesome in-, sect For a time he bore the unpleasant sen sation without a murmur, but at last patience ceased to be a virtue, and from the flash of the eagle eye, one conld plainly see that the honr of that fly had come. Instead of saying Justice far tbe Judges. Iu increasing the salaries of Justices of the United States Supreme Court, Congress ex tended to the most deserving and worst paid of our 'poorly paid publio servants a tardy jus tice which we regret was not more complete. The scanty increase granted serves chiefly to illustrate the meanness it barely remedies. Ten thousand dollars is not an extravagant re muneration for a year’s labor in the highest judicial station cf a land like ours. A New York Police Justice, who may or may net be ■able to write his name, and knows rather less of the law than of its profits, would think him self poorly paid if he got no more. Compared with judicial salaries in England, it is simply ridiculously smalL An English Chancellor receives £10,000 a year, with a re tiring pension of half that sum. The Chief Justice of the Court of Queen’s Bench gets £8,000, the Master of the Boles £7,000, the pension in each case being half. The Puisne S Associate Justices are paid proportionately, e lowest salary being £o,000, with a retiring pension of £3,500.

Yet we take credit to onrselves for munificence in offering to onr Chief Justice abont one-sixth tho salary of his English brother for doing six times the labor. Can it be that republics are ungratefnl, or are they only stingy? It is to be noticed that jnst before fixing the salaries of the Justices at about 20 per cent, less than designated in the report of tho Ju diciary Committee, the Senate appropriated $100,000, to be invested in another failure Another Thaddctis of Warsaw. A polish Count, named Christianas Bena- dofski, is now working as n journeyman in a harness-maker’s shop in Galesburg, Illinois. He was bom in Warsaw in 1833. In 1863 he was involved in one of the Polish rebellions, but escaped to this country, while his estates were confiscated, and his mother died, his father having previouly been killed in a skirm- Tho Galesburg Republican says of him: In his weary wanderings through this country he onoe obtained the position of pro fessor of languages in a college in Minnesota, but was forced to abandon the place because he conld not obtain sufficient salary to support him in the common est style commensurate with tho situa tion conferred. He resigned the empty dig nity and set in with a harness-maker in a neighboring town to learn the business, bnt could not obtain enough from him even to get the necessities of life. After many wander ings, ho finally arrived in Galesburg some two years since, and for the past six or seven months has found employment in the harness shop of Mr. Isaac MerrilL Lost winter he re ceived intelligence that a free pardon had been extended to him by the Czar Alexander. It had, however, become so utterly valueless that he refused to accept it—his estates had been confiscated and his friends and relatives ore either dead or banished. Thus bereft of hope the scion of an ancient and noble family works in an humble capacity for his daily bread.” Tbe Pcra. Horrors. Some shocking details of the late fire at Pera are published in a letter in the London Morn ing Post, of June 15. Incidents of the most painful description (the writer says) have not been wanting. Whole families have been found, the members locked in each others’ death em brace. Some few have been removed from the cellars of their houses still groaning in life, but only to expire on exposure to the air. I hear that the number of houses burnt down is computed generally at 6,000. I understand that the total amount falling due from London insurance companies Ls esti mated at somewhat over £100,000. On the evening of the fire the Sultan rode np from his palace to the scene of disas ter, bnt his Majesty’s approach was cut off at the Taxim by the showers of sparks and the heat In the morning his Majesty in person superintended the turning ont of the troops from some large artillery barracks jnst beyond tho Taxim, to make room for distressed fami lies, and also ordered some 2,000 tents to be immediately pitched in the parade grounds adjoining. Hero are now located some thou sands of burnt-out poor people, who receive their daily rations of rice, bread, oil and meat at Iii-«* Majesty's expense. The Saltan has also issued strict orders to the imaums, or priests of Mussulman quarters, to in no way hinder the letting of houses to distressed Christians. From the New York Tribune. June 2Sth.) The most graphic accounts of the great fire at Constantinople fail to convey an idea of its horrors and destructiveness. More than 7,- 000 houses were destroyed, and property to the value of $40,000,000 was sacrificed. More than 1,000 dead bodies have been recovered, aud there* are still 1,400 missing persons unac counted for. Seven lire companies, en and men, perished iu the flames they en ored to sundae. The horrible incidents are too numerous to detail. Strangest of alLi* the fact that the fire thus destructive raged but a few hoars, and spread with such rapidity that buildings were swept uway iu an instant, and with an explosiou like that of a cannon. Sach awfully destructive fires are, fortunately, hardly possible in American cities, with their broad avenues, brick buildings aud superior fire engines. , . A ’Novel Sciriitot-lnl Recreation.

Dor- emus, the Paterson photographer, petted a little white lap-dog, which was following two ladies in front of his father’s store, and ad miringly stroked the animal on the back, when the dog bit his hand. The wound was dressed by a physician and healed nicely, but from that time the child has been nervous, and complained of shooting pains, starting from his arm and going to his head and along his spine, and latterly through his whole person. He went to school until Monday last, and could not rest at school longer. On Monday night he seemed to have spasms, but was better on the day following, bnt on Wednesday night grew fearfully agitated, and could not be con trolled, and leaped from his father’s arms several times and ran 'wildly abont the room. He wanted to eat bnt conld not, and, although burning with thirst, when water was brought to him he shivered and repelled it, and could not swallow, or if lie did, it seemed to be with great effort, and with a jerk. He did not sleep after Sunday night, and grew weaker after every spasm; bit Ins lips badly, and failed until 4 o’clock on Thursday afternoon, when death came to his relief!—Netcarle, (X. J.)
