Tho Indians appear to have acted about as well as their white neighbors could have 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. From the Ottawa (III.) Plainilealor, Sopt. 10. 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 .

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.” T BI li M 8 OF THE DAILY ENQUIRER.
