An Auclent Wreck Recovered.
I It would he well worth the while if, in
Vi's city and State, we wore to take moro
b»in« to preserve from destruction the
Jtlicioftoe past. In Boston such is the
■enund for everything of a historical
Ibincter, that some antiquarians have

Inure,a vessel sailing for Virginia and
near Cape Cod in l»12»i. And thoro is
rNnolumo of history preserved in

among the Indians, who, however, seem
to have had a wonderful respect for Gov
ernor Bradford, spoke English themselves
already, and returned the runaways at
tho Governor’s request to Mr. Fells. Tho
Indians appear to have acted about as

asked.
Every year there are relics going to
decay that a hundred years lienco would
bo invaluable to tho historian. Houses
have been pulled down that a photograph
of would bo a treasure now, and papers
destroyed that would give the clue to our
rnviilutionnry history in s.,mn of its most
interesting portions. In the little town of
Northumberland, whereDr. Priestly lived
his later days and died,' whoro his librury
and his philosophical instruments woro all
lelt, much is yet to bo seen of great value
to the public, and j’et treasured by the
family. And still that man himself—Dr.
Priestly—to whom a monument has in tho
past few years been raised by the Univer
sity of Oxloid, contains no memorial in
tins State so characteristic as tho epitaph
lie wrote for his own simple tombstone in
tho cometory.— Philadelphia Ledger.

A Mall Gored to Death by an IJIk.
It become, our duty to record n most la
mentable ocouroncn at Judge Oaton’s
park, near this eitv, on Saturday last.
Three men from Otiawa—Marvin \V.
Dimoclc and a brother ou a visit froui
Connecticut, and Mr. Kdward Drew, at
whose house the former two wero stop
ping, took a walk to the north bluff, and
arriving at tho north end of ,1 ttdgo Caton's
park, concluded to enter and lock at tile
deer, elk, &c. They climbed the fence,
and approaching a group in tho centre of
which stood the two large elk, looked at
them some minutes, and then started to
ward tha fence to climb out. As they
walked away, however, the oik followed
thorn, and when still some distance from
the fence, tho larger of the two made de
monstrations as if about to attack the par
ty. Mr. Drew, and Mr. D. of Connecti
cut, took refuge in atiee, while Marvin
Dimock Temsined on the ground. The
elk made a pass ut him, hut ho dodged
around the tree several timos, avoiding
him until ho fell, Mr, Drew and Ihoother
Iliinoek llion ciinie out of tho tree to his
rescue. They fought tho elk some min
utes, whon Air, D. o' Connecticut seemed
to faint away, and Mr. Drew, for safety,
lifted him again into tho tree. Tho other
Mr, I)., who still lay on tho ground, up to
this time untouched, also seemed from
fright or excitement to have lost his con
sciousness, and Mr. Drew maintained his
Struggle with the elk alone, until tlio lat
ter, seeing _ Mr. Ditnock on tlio ground,
mado a furious plunge at him, dealing him
frightful blows in tlio body. Mr. Drew
then started for help, the other elk which
bad liius far merely played tho spectator,
following li im and inn king frequent at
tempts to strike him ns he hurried along.
Ho reached tho house of Judge Diekey,
who, soizing’ some pitchforks and other
implements, hurried to the reecuo. They
found tho elk standing over Mr. Dimoclc,
and had a fearful light before they drove
him away. Mr. D, of Connecticut, was
t hen brought down out of tho tree, (again
fully recovered from his fainting lit,) and
Marvin D. taken up, placed in a buggy,
and brought to town. Jle was still con
scious at limes, and though badly, it was
thought not fatally injured, until placed
on a bod, when ho sank away immediate
ly. and in ten minutes was a corpse.
He was ono of our oldest citizens, and
highly respected by all who know him.
Ilia wife was on a visit East at tho time,
and of course the melancholy news must
lie to her a crushing blow.
An Aitallincj Spkctaclk in a House
ok Moukninu.— John Rodman, a colored
man (says the St. Louis Republican of
Sunday) died, as was supposed, at an early
hour yesterday morning, at his residence,
over tho grocery store on the northeast
corner of Franklin avenue and Twelfth
street. A cnlHn and a shroud were pro
cured, and tho colored corpse, after being
washed, shaved, and dressed in tlio burial
clothes, was laid out in thecoflin. While
his bereaved wil'o was wringing lior tears
out of a bandanna handkerchief, and his
numerous friends, "mule with grief,” were
sitting around the dead body, talkingabout
whnt a good man ho was, ltedman sud
denly raised himself holt upright in his
colfln, with i ho majesty of death in his
cold face. Moving his not entirely sight-
loss orbs around upon the company of
mourners, his clayey lips began to chatter
some unintelligible stutf about tho other
world. Tho result of this hideous per
formance was to upset the whole assem
blage with sudden horror, the female
friends fainting and tumbling into each
other’s arms at tho sight of the ghost—the
men themselves caving in, and with eyes
dilated rushing hurriedly out of tho room.
Redman’s wife, tho distressed widow, was
among the number who fainted. When
she came to, she run out of tho room and
out of tho house, and nothing could in*
cluco *hor to return during tbo day, not
withstanding she was assured that her
husband had come to be conscious again,
and that tho doctor thought ho might re
cover. Wo are not informed as to tlio
muiiro of. Redman’s disease, but learn
that lie was atcendod by an intelligent
physician, who regards tho circumstance
of his sudden restoration, when to all
nppoaranco ho had boon a lifeless man, as
something almost protcrnutural.
Taming Bkks.—Whon beos are full of
honey they will not sting, and then aro as
harmless as kittens. They will fill them-
solvcs with honey when frightened. The
smoko of rotten wood, tobacco, cotton,
rags, or dry corn cobs, will frighten them.
These articles should burn roadHy, slow
ly, and without blazing. The very host
material to use is rotten wood ; it should
not bn too dozy, as it will burn too fust
and ho likely to blaze. Wood is very
convenient and evidently not expensive.
With tho mouth first diced a little of
the smoke to tlio cnlranco of tho hives,
and then into tho slats or holes of the
honey hoard, and directly upon-tho bees.
Do not he afraid of injuring the hoes; you
cannot harm them at all with a reason
able amount ol smoke. Now remove tho
honey board, and blow smoke upon the
boos, to keep them below tho tops of the
frames. Keep them below the tops till
lhoy are full of lionoy. In from live to
lilteen minutes mod of the beos will ho
gorged, and look ns plump as aldermen.
When in this condition tho frames of
comb may be taken out, examined and
returned.
Follow thoso directions, and you will
find no troublo in taming and handling
any hive of hoes.—Moore's llural New
yorker.
Wouldn’t Comk a Skuond Tims —
C , now of California, was for a time
Secretary of tho State of Illinois. Ono
day during tho vacation, a mock, cadav
erous looking man, with n white neck
cloth, introduced himself to him at his
his olBqo, and stuting that ho had been in
formed that Mr. C hud tlio letting of
tho hall of representatives, ho wished to
socuro it, if possible, for a course of lec-
, turos ho desired to deliver in Springllold.
|' “May I ask,” said tho Secretary, what
is to bo tho subject of your locturos ?”
| “Curt dnly,” was tho reply, with a very
! solemn eA.ooaiion of countenance. “Tho
course which I wish to deliver is on tho
second coming of tho Lord.”
“It is of no u*o," said C . "If you
take iny advico, you will not waste your
time in this city. It is my private opinion
that if tho Lord has boon in Springfield
once he will never come a second time.”

Tumbling Pigeons of India.—It
may interest some ol your readers to hear
of a very peculiar pigeon, much valued
by the Mussulmans of this country. It
is called Lotan in Hisdustuneo, and its
peculiarity consists in its tumbling on the
ground instead of in tho air. When re
quired to tumble, they are taken in tho
hand, tho head slightly rubbed or “lil-
lipod” with tho finger, and then thoy are
put on tho ground, where they continue
to tumble uutil taken up. I have not uecn
them loft on tho ground until their tum
blings are completed, being invariably
taken up after they have tumbled about u
dozen times. I should imagine thoy
might injuro or exhaust themselves if left
longer. Tho pigoons are always white,
and although their wings are long and
pointed, they seem to have but small
powors of flight. It is only lately 1 have
heard of these pigeons, although seven
years in India; hut, on inquiry, they
seem to ho not uncommon. All’ colored
pigeons, if not constantly crossed (as is
also tho case with rabbit^) gradually as
sume tho colors of tho wild ones, which
differ from tlio European “blue rock”
only by having an ash-colored, instead of
a pure white, rump. 1 saw a pied wild
■“blue rock” in tho Walliur jungle, far
away from where tamo onus could have
over been kept. Should any of your cor
respondents wioh for further particulars
of tho lotan, I shall bo happy to procure
| a pair, closely observe their habits, and
lot you have the results.—Smooth Jiorc,
I (Madras, India, July )
A young Englishman, whilst at Naples,
was introduced at an assembly of ono of
the first ladies by a Neapolitan gentle
man. White he was thoro, his snuff box
was stolon fiom him. Tho next day, be
ing at anothor house, ho saw a porson
taking snuff out of his box. Ho ran to
his friend. “Th.ire,” said he, “tlmt man
in blue, with gold embroidery, is taking
snuff out of the box stolen from mo )'•*»•
lerday. Do you know him? D lie m»i a
sharper?” “Tako care,” said tho other,
“that man is of tho first quality.” “I do
not caro for his quality,” suid tho English
man, “1 mu*t have my snuff box again ;
i’ll go and ask him for it.” “Fray,” said
his friond, “ho quiet and leave it to mo to
get back your box.” Upon this assurance
tho Englishman wont away, after inviting
his friend to dine with him the next day.
He accordingly came, ami as ho eidorod,
“Thoro,” said ho, “1 have brought you
your snuff box.” “Well, how did you
obtain it?” “Why,” suid tho Neapolitan
nobleman, “ 1 did not wish to ntako any
noise about it, therefore I picked his
pocket of it.”
