4 MiSCELUNY. A Good Story. The following capital story we extract from a letter to the Alabama Journal, by J J. Hoop- j er: I Old Col. D ,of the Mobile District, was I one of the most singular characters ever known in Alabama. He was testy and eccen tric but possesses many fi.ie qualities, which wer.- fully appreciated by the people of the District. Many of his freaks are atresh in the memory of the *old ’uns’ of Mobile—and all of them will tell you that the Colonel, thong.i bard to beet, wee one® terribly taken in by a couple of legal tyros. It is George Wood ward, 1 believe, who tells the story, but howev er th . may bo, it is in keeping with others re lated of the old gentleman. It seems that Col. D— had had a mtsnn derstanding with the two gentleman alluded to, and was not on spaaking terms with them, although all of the three wore professionally riding the circuit pretty much together. The your. t; ones being well aware of the Colonel’s irrasctble nature, determined as they left one of the courts for anethe', to have some apart at his expense on the way. They accordingly having got about half an hour's startin leaving, and presently they arrived at a broad dark stream, that looked as if it might be a, dozen feet deep.but which in reality w,s hardly tu ire than as many inches. Crossing they alighted, pulling oflT their coats and boots, and sat down quietly to watch for the oid “Tartar. Jogging along at lertgib. up came the old fel low. He looked first at the youngsters who were gravely dr ,witig on their boots and coats, as if tliey had just had a swim—and then he looked at the broad creek before him like a du ent, translucent star. The Colonel was awful ly puzzled. ‘•ls this d -d croek swimming?’ he growled after a pause of some moments. No reply was made ; the young men simply mouuled their horses and rode off some little distance, and stopped to watch our hero. The Colonel slowly divested himself of boot*, coat, pantaloons and drawers. These he neatly tied up in bis handkerchief, and hung them on the hern of his saddle. Then he re mounted, and as ho was a fat, short man, with a paunch of inordinary size, rather inadequate legs, a face like a withered apple, aud a brows wig, there is no doubt he made an interesting picture as he bestrode his steed with the "breeze holding gentle dalliance” with the lower extremity of bis only garment. tsiawly and cautiously did the old gentleman and his horse take the creek. Half a length, and the water was not fetlock deep. Here the horse stopped to drink. A length and a half • and the stream was no deeper. Thirty feel far'her, and a decided shoaling ! Here Col. D—‘— reined up. ‘There must,’ said be, ‘be a h—l of a swift channel between this and the bank ; sec how the water runs. We will dash through !” A sharp lash made the horse spring the ‘‘wa tery waste and another carried the horse and rider safely to the opposite bank. The creek was nowhere more.than a loot deep A wild yell from the ‘young ’une’ announced theirappreciation of the sport as they gallopped away. ■‘l’ll catch yon, you rascals I” was ground under Col. D —— 'a teeth, and away he gat opped in hot pursuit, muttering ven geance ou his foes. On—ou they speed .' pursuer and pursned! the youngsters laughed, yelled and screamed— the Colonel damned with mighty emphasis, and his shirt floated and crackled in the wind like a loose flying jib. On—on —and the pursuer reached the farm bouse on the r oad side. Their passing star tled a flock of geese, which as the Colonel dashed up. met him with outstretched wings, elongated necks and hisses dire. His horse swerved suddenly, and the Colonel in a mo ment was in a most unromantic heap, with his own brown wig by his side, aud his bandies of clothes scattered around. The white beaded children of the bouse came out first, took a distant view of the mon ster —as it seemed to them—and then returned to report progress. After a little, the father of the family came, aud the affair being explain ed, assisted the Colone I in making his toilet, the Colonel swearing and tne countrymen laughing all the while Dressed and remounted our hero started off with a woful phiz, and was soon out of sight. A Tank Lion. —A correspondentof the New York Herald, writing from Paris says: “ There has been in Paris for the last two weeks a French officer recently returned from Africa,who has fur his companion in the streets a magnificent lit n,which follows him like a dog. The name of the animal is Aruir, and never have 1 « en n more splendid specimen of the kins of the forest. Though 1 did not like much i » be near his majesty, I ventured the other night !o approach him, and— horrcsco ref crons ! ho licked my hands as a dog would do. The French proverb says that we must n«M play with fire, and i fear cne of these dnys r. mi will find bit wild nature, and make ap bloody deed. The Parting or Life.—A corrftspondent of the New York Evening Post says : “ There are not many more beautiful iiuM in the Eri&*li*b I ingir jre. mere are certainly none so beautiful hi the writings of ths au thor. 23 those of Mrs. Barbaotd. which the poet Rogers is fund of repeating to his friends, hi Lis tine, deliberate manner, with just enough oi trerotJootnesrin that grave voice of hit, to give his recitation the effect of deep fuel ing. “ Li% I we’ve been long together, ■- Tl " m*j- -ij| < -«.■* - -i*.--.--.a- ’ i'is hard to p»rt when fnTudH are dear, Fei tuafM ’twill cast a e teir, Then «Heal away, give little warning, Chooea ibiuc o«n time, Say not g<<ed night, but in souie happier elima, Bid me good Hiaining.” ‘•lt makes the thought of Death cheerful to represent it thus, as life looking in upon you with g ! ad greeting, amidst freeh airs and glo rious light. The lines, 1 infer, were written by Mrs. tUrbauld in her late old age, and I do not wonder that the aged poet, who soma years since entered on the fifth t»cor*i of his years should find them haunting his memory.” Nothing Naw under the Sun. —It appears that .Mr Layard, me antiquarian, Lua discov ered among the ruins of Nineveh, or the neigh borhood, a priming office fined with terrs cotta tablets, with inscriptions stamped in. This was probably done with moveable type 1 be magnetic telegraph was in actual opera tion in Spam in 1824, on a line ©ver twenty mi’es in length, as we saw it described some time go. More recently the papers contain a circumstantial account of a trial trip ofn steamboat, which was successful, about three hundred years ago, also iu Spain, before the whole court: JWr. Ln yard 9 8 Latent Discoveries.— A few weeks ago we announced (says the Literary Gazette.) Mr. Layard’e return from his expe dition into the desert, and the rescue of some of his larger antiquities from the mud o! the river, and their embarkation for England. We have since, however, received further particu lars of his recent discoveries at Koyunjik, which aro extremely interesting. Ila found, as ha* been stated, a chamber which is com pletely filled with torra cotta tablets, the in scriptions on which, wh new learn, are stamp ed in, ao that though Major Rawlinson thinks it very probable these taoists may be records es the empire, it is still not unlikely that many of them may, in lact be duplicates of, or a col lection of. manifestoes for inauing to the peo ple or their immediate rulers—in «hort, a sort of Assyrian odicia 1 printing office. We behove that no fewer than twenty-five casrg are en their way to England. In the pyramid nt Nimroud. also, a unique statao has been discovered, it is from four to five feet iu height, in gypsum, elaborately carved and very perfect. There is also a high relief of the King, very beautifully executed, standing in an arch eight feet high, and covered with minute inscriptions. Mr. Layard’s last cum inunicalion is dated Akra, July 17, where we are sorry to say. he had been confined by a severe attack of fever. The inefficient assistance ho has received has caused him to over exert himself, and thus he has been stopped awhile on Ids way to Vae to secure inscriptions. He hopes to pass a great part of the winter in Babylonia, and to re urn Lome in the spring The very impor tant discoveries ho is now making render it iin peraiively necessary that his exertion sshouid not be stayed for want of lands.

FvGiTivK Slav* Law amoxb tsb old Puritans.—A writer in the Boston Courier cites the following: u It may interest the readers of these papers, as a piece of carious aatiqaanan history, to know the origin cf the practice of restoring fugitives from service. In iho articles of con federation between the United Colonies of New England—namely, Massachusetts New Plymouth, Connecticut, New Haven, &c. . in 1643; and mads, as the preamble do- Clares, by those who *a!i come in’o these parts of America with one and the nmo end and aim, namely, to advance the Kint’dom of cur Load Jtsus Chri-t. aud to enjoy the liberties . of the gospel i& purity with peace’—there is ' the following provision : 4 lt is ulso agreed that if any servant run away from his master into any confederate jurisdiction, in auchcase, upon certificate from magistrate in the jurisdiction cut of which the servant fled, or upon other due proof the said servant shall be either delivered to his master or auy other that pursues aud brings such certificate er proof’ “ Thus it appears that the rendition of fu gitives from service in this country commenc ed mere than two hundred years ago. and, what is remarkable, the mode of proof pres cribed by the agreement of the Colonies is precisely analogous tn one of the tuodos pro vided by the act of 1850 ; the only diffarenco between them is the more elevated character of the trib an al ‘in ths jurisdiction out of which the said servant fled,’ before which the proof is now to bo made, and the greater cau tion in the proceedings. I presume that the subjects ot ihie compact between the Colonies were rather while servants and apprentices i.ian ne«ro slaves, which in 1643 were proba bly very few in number. It was very com mon in those early times, more than at for master mechanics te take indentured ap prentices, who, if they absconded, were (and nuw are} liable to be arrested and returned to their masters, as persons held to labor or service in d?e State whence they lied.” The same rule now prevails in resard to white fugitives as was adopted by the tarly Puritans of New England in relation tn rana ivays, and i* applied by the law of 1850 (as it has been by the law of 1793) to fugitive slaves. A man charged with crime, and fleeing t© smother Slate, is surrendered up on the einiple certificate of an authorized magistrate, with out trial or inquiry into the reality of his *uFit, or any appeal te the writ of habeas corpus. His gtiit is left to be ascertained in the Slate from which the fugitive fled. But the North ern fanatics contend for a rale for runaway blacks different from that to which white runa ways are subjected, and are ready to tear the sacred Union asunder to effect their weak and wicked purpose. The Whale's Strength.— The most dreadful display of the whale’s strength and prowess yet authentically recorded, was that made on the American whale ship Essex, Capt. Pollard, which sailed from Nantucket for the Pacific Ocean in August, 1840. Late in the full of the same year, when in Ist. 40 of the South Pacific, a shool of sperm whales were discovered, aud three boats were manned and s«a in pursuit. The mare’s boat was struck by one of them, and he was obliged to return to the ship, in order te repair damages. While he was engaged in the work, a sperm, wha’o, judged to be eighty-three feet long, broke water twenty rods from the ship, on her weather bow. He was going at the rate of ab -ut three knots an hour, and the ship at nearly the same rate, when he struck the bow of the vessel, just forward of her chains. At the shock produced by the collision of two sac.h mighty masses of matter, in motion, the ship shook like a leaf. The seemingly malicious whale dived and passed under the ship, grazing her keel, and then appeared al about the distance of a ship’s length, lashing the ■ea with his fins and tail, as if suffering the mos horrible agony. He was evidently hurt by the collislion, and blindly frantic with in stinctive rage. In a few minutes he seemed to recover himself, and started, with great speed, across the vessel’s course, to windward. Meanwhile, the hands on board discovered the ship gradu ally settling down at lhe bows, and the pumps were ordered to be rigged. While the crew were working at them, one of them cried out —“God have mercy he comes again ” The whale had turned about forty rods from tne ship, and was making fur her with double his former speed, his pathway white with foam Rushing ahead, he struck her again at th® bow, and the tremendous blow stove her in. The whale dived under again, and disappeared, and the ship foundered in five minutes from the firet collision. But five out of twenty, were saved. Doos and Mxn.—We overheard two gentie mem in mustachis, as they walked Broadway, talking about that dog who committed suicide by springing from the fire tower recently. One remarked that the dog must have been insane to commir an act so singular, to which the other responded historically, saying, “ I remember reading that a man once jumped from the Duke of York’s lower in England, and killed himself” •Oh, that’s very likely,’’ said the first, “I can see how a man might commit such uu act, but for a dog to make such a fool of himself, is incomprehensible.”— N.
