VOL. 111. A Moving Rock The last sensation mentioned in our Southern exvbau£rt*s» i® wn tinmens* moving mass of rock in the Northern portion of Arkansas. The Memphis Atalanche has been furnished with an account oi this incredible phenomenon by a distinguished lawyer and politician of Tennessee. This gentleman derives his information from two young English noblemen, who have visiter! the far Southwest in search ot scientific kuowl edge. The Avalanche says: Southwest, about ten miles from the source of the St. Francis River, which rises in ti e Ozark Mountains, und a short distance from the boundary line which separates Missouri from Arkan sas, is a strip of limestone, or green stone, ranging from between one to two miles in width. It is interspersed here and there with plats of land, in many cases over an acre iu length, peculiarly rich in soil, and making the strange and, perhaps, hitherto unknoirn confor mation of a swampy and rocky soil. At the extreme northeast extremity of this rocky section the water front the St. Francis pours in, especially in the spring and fall seasons, in a heavy volutfle. The stream, for it Ist nothing else than a stream, although its current is swift beyond parallel, takes a zig-zag course through the rock, being particu larly swift at the above-mentioned ex tremity, and again empties into the St. Francis. At this extremity is a solid mass ot rugged and picturesque rock, almost oval in shape, washed on all sides by a rapid current, and moves directly and regularly back and forward ; always in motion, and creating a deep and heavy sound, which can be heard for miles. At first its motion is hardly perceptible to the ordinary vision, but •as the sound increases aud the strange eye tests more directly and minutely, the object becomes palpable’. On either side of this immense moveable sub stance, which, as we have said before, is surrounded by a swift current, are here and there eddies threatening in stant destruction to everything coming within its yawning and awful reach. The mass of rock is covered with wild vegetation, which grows up thickly and spontaneously. Licbn’se of THg Fkkxch Bab —M. Paul Girard iu a sketch of the eminent French advocate, Maitre Emmanuel Arago, gives a curious illustration of the license which the members of the bar in that country occasionally allow themselves in behalf of the clients. The ease iu which M. Arago first made a reputation was the tri il of a young man named Huber and Mademoiselle Lame Qouvelle for a plot against Louis Pliil lippe. M. Arago, in defending the former, exclaimed. ‘ Huber is a man whom I esteem, whom I love, whom I shall never forget, as I hope he will never torget me—a man, a gentleman, whom I could desire to be my own brother. Surely you will give him back to me.” Aud at the close of this sin gular peroration the impassioned coun sel fell upon his client's neck and em braced him. The jury, however, took their own view of the case, and returned a verdict of guilty. When the prisoner appeared to receive sentence, M. Arago again hugged his client, while M. Jules Favre, who defended Mademoiselle Gouvelle, flung himself into hor arms and kissed her—perhaps a more natu ral and pleasant proceeding. “In fact,” as M. Girard remarks, “there was a great deal of embracing in that case.” Wur.L Put.— Rev. Dr. El wood Young author of “Night Thoughts,” a little herore his marriage, 1781. was walking in life garden in Welwyn, with his lady and another, when a servant came to tell him that a gentleman wished to speak with him. “Tell him,” said the Doctor, “I am too happily engaged to change my situ ation.” The ladies insisted that he should go, as his visitor was a man of mark, his patron and his friend ; and as persuasion had no effect on him they took him, one by the right hand and the other hv the left, and led him to the garden gate. He then laid his hand upon his heart, and in that manner, for which he was so remarkable, uttered the fol lowing lines : Thus Adam looked when from the garden driven And thus disputed orders seot from heaven, Like him I go but yet to go am loth, Like him I go, for angels drove ns both, Hard was his fate, but mine still more un kind, His Eve went with him but mine stays be hind. How Bkownlow’s Suffuage Law Wouks.—A firm in Nashville, one of the largest and most respectable mer cantile houses in the West, paying an nually many thousand dollars of taxes, has, including clerks, six persons em ployed in the concern besides the porter, who is a negro. Tho latter is now the only one ot the whole concern who is allowed to vote under the present Brown low Constitution. The point of the joke is that the negro was the bitterest rebel of all, aud was an officer’s servant in the late rebel army, and when fighting by his master’s side he was the third man over the ramparts of Fort Pillow, where he fell like a thunderbolt upon the negroes who so gallantly surrendered, that stronghold. Two Barnums ix the Field. —The Democrats of the Fourth Congressional District of Connecticut have nominated William H. Burnum, of Salisbury, as their candidate for Congress. So there are now two Barnums in the field—Bar num ot Salisbury, and Barnum of Bridgeport; Barnum the iron man, and Barnum the showman. The Democrat ic Barnum is a man of large wealth and solid reputation, identified with the bu siness interests of the District and pps sessing the respect and confidence of the community. It is said that he is very desirous of defeating his namesake, and will prosecute tho canvass with vigor. —A novelty at an elegant wedding which occurred a few diaya since in Troy, N. Y., was two pretty girls, lesa than twelve years of age, acting aa bridesmaids. A Salem (Mnss.l letter carrier re ceived a valentine on the 14th, with $72.30 enclosed.
