Among tiie incidents of the strike at Lynn the Boston Journal mentions tlio following! It is seldom that anything amusing occurs in connection with a suicidal at tempt, yet u most ludicrous ntlnir of tliis nature occurred at the City Hall, on Saturday evening. Win.

They were lodged temporarily iu the auction room of the ollicor, when Bill, after begging in vain to he lot ott, griped his throat with Ills lingers and attempted to choke himself. Ho was already black in the face when ho was ordered into a carriage and removed to tho City Hall. A small bottle of R. G., found in his pockot, explained tho cause of tho mulee. After being plnced in tlio lock-up. Bill made a second attempt, not exact ly to end his wretched existence, but to persuade tlio officers into tlio belief that tie was determined to kill himself, and thus roguin his liberty. The ollicor ap proached the coll door, when tho follow ing colloquy occurred; Bill—Massn Oflleer, take dis scarf, or I shall hang myself.

Messrs. Walker, of Ala., Clarke, of Missouri; Richardson, of Illinois, and Cochrane, of New York, participated iu the debate.

Another gives an ac count of a bloody buttle between two tribes and tlio final extinction of tin- few survivors by driving them into tho water—the plaintiff wail of their linger ing spirits keeping up a perpetual me morial of the tragical event. Yet an other version is that given by M. Guy- in re, an old Christian missionary and the revenge of the mermaid. We had ulways supposed that this phenomenon, whatever its origin might be, natural, or supernatural, was pecu liar to oqr own const. It appears, how ever, from an extract given by some of the English papers from Sir Emerson Tennent’s recent work on Ceylon, that something very like it is known at Bnt- ticaloa, in that island, and is attributed to u rather less poetical and mysterious origin—that is, to a particular species of shell-fish. They are said to bo heard at night, and most distinctly when tin moon is nearest the full, and aro dc scribed iu terms that correspond ver closely with the accounts given of tin Pascagoula music by those who hnV' heard it. But according to the same authority, it is not only in Ceylon that this submarine music is hoard. .Sir Em erson says: Sounds somewhat similar are heard under watorat some places on tho wes tern coast of India, especially in tho harbor of Bombay. At Caldera, in Chili musical cadences are said to issue fr the sea near the lauding place; they described as rising and falling fully f< notes, resembling the tones of harp strings and mingling like those, at Bat- licaloa, till they produce a musical dis cord of great delicacy and sweetness.— Tlio animals from which they proeood have not boon identified at either place and tlio mystery remains unsolved whether those at Batticnloa aro given forth hy fishes or hy mollusks.—Mobile Tribune, •rallv An Stii.i.
