rRm*Y MournwG, T. W. & T. L. GANTT, $2 PER ANNUM The Pope and the Conjuror had ■\Vhen Torrini, the magician . been giving exhibitions in the princi pal Italian cities, at the beginning of the present century, he decided to go to Home, in the Jiopc that the patron age of his holiness the Pope woiH give eclat to his reputation. In tins I.e was not disappointed. Pius VII., who was, then the reigning pontiff, having heard of his performances, did him the honor to command his attendance at the Vatican. Being informed tha;; his au- dicncc at this exhibition would com prise all the dignitaries of the church, the magician devoted unusual care to tile selection of his tricks, but,'after fixing on his best ones, vainly, racked his brain to invent something worthy of his illustrious spectators. While he was thus perplexed, chance threw in his way the means of accom plishing his object Happening to be in the shop of one of the bes t watch makers in Borne, the day before that fixed for the performance, he heard a lackey, in rich scarlet livery, who had just come in, ask if hia eminence, the Cardinal d ’a watch were repaired. “ It will not he ready till this even ing,” replied the watch-maker, “ and I will.do myself the honor of personally carrying it to your master.” After the servant had gone, the tradesman said to Torrini: “ This a superb watch. His emi nence tho cardinal, to whom it belongs, values it at more than ten thousand francs; for, as it was made by his or der by tho celebrated Breguet, he na turally supposes it to be unique of its kind. Curiously enough, however, it is only two days ago that a young fel low belonging to this city offered me a precisely similar watch, made by the same artist, for one thousand francs.” These words made an impression on Torrini, who, having formed a plan of op&fUona, mid to the watchmaker: “ Do you tlnnk this person is still desirous to dispose of the watch ? “ I have no doubt of it,” was the re ply. “ Ke Is a young prodigal, who, having spent all his fortune, is now obliged to tell his famous jewels, and trill be very clad to obtain a thousand francs.” < “Biff,' .Ye found F “Eft. J .^tfljgh—in a gaming-house, where he passes all his time.” “ Well,” said the magician, I wish to procure the watch, but cannot wait longer than to-day. Please buy it for me ns soon as possible, and erigravo on it his eminence's arms, so that there shall be a precise resemblance between the two watches, and your profit shal be proportione 1 to the discretion with which you conduct the transaction.” ■a The watch-maker, who knew Tor- |r rini, probably suspected his object in putseeking possession of the watch, but, being aware that the magician’s dis creet management would be assured by its necessity to his success, had no hes itation in complying with his request. “ It will only take a quarter of an hour to go to the gaming-house, and I " ‘teing aol nm confident of being able to procure it for you.” In less than the time named the dealer came back with the chronome ter in his hand. “ Here it is !* he exclaimed, with an air of triumph. “ My man welcomed me as a providential visitor, and was so ei\ger to dispose ot the match that he gave it to ftie without counting the money. Everything shall bo ready for you to-night” That evening the watch-mnkcr brought tire two chronometers to Tor- rini, who, after a careful .comparison, was unable to detect any difference be tween them. The magician now felt confident of making a decided hit with his trick, the preparations for which were already expensive. The next day ne went to the pontiff's palace, and, at a signal given by his holiness, came upon the stage. Though Torrini had appeared before crowned heads, he had never been in the presence of such on august assem bly. In the foreground sat Pius VII. himself, in a large arm-chair, on a dais, while near him were seated the cardinals, and behind them were the various prelates and dignitaries of the church. The nervousness that the performer naturally experienced in the presence of such exalted personages was allayed by the benevolent expres sion on the face of the Pope. Reas sured by his kindly glances. Torrini commenced: “ Holy father,” he said, bowing re spectfully, “ I am about to show you some experiments to which the name of “white magic” has been most unjust ly given. This title was invented by charlatans to impress the multitude, but it only signifies a collection of clev er deceptions, ingeniously contrived to amuse the imagination.” rleased with the favorable reception of his address, Torrini commenced his performances in excellent spirits, which were increased by the flattering compliments of the Pope. In one ot his. tricks—that of the burnt writing, which consists of a sentence or two written by one of the company, who, after burning the paper, discovers it intact in a sealed envelope—he had the satisfaction of procuring an auto graph from his holiness. On bring solicited to write a sentence, Pius VII indited the following: “ I have much pleasure in stating that Signor,Torrini is an amiable sor cerer." 4 The paper was burned, and the skill "ith which if was mode to appear in roded euvfclflpe was .appreciated by the I ope, who gavo the conjurer perrais- *ion to keep his autograph. It was n .°F to eodtijo^parforraancerwith the trick the' the had liny peculiarity of ehapo that would make it easy to identify the one selected. He then said: If any gentleman among you has a watch of rather large size (this was the peculiarity of the Cardinal’s) he will confer a great favor by lending it to me, W it will greatly facilitate my ament. I need not say that I be extremely careful of " it. My object is to prove its superiority, if it has any, if not, to wonderfully improve it.” All eyes were now turned on the Cardinal, who, as was well Ynown, prized his chronometer on account of its nnusnal size; the large case, as he said, allowing the works to act more freely. He hesitated, however, to part with his treasure, till Pius VII. said to him: -.«» i “ Cardinal, I fancy yonr watch will suit exactly ; oblige me by handing it to Signor Torrini.” His eminence complied, though not without numerous precautions. When the watch was handed to him, Torrini assumed to be absorbed in admiration of the works and beautiful chasing, to which he drew the attention of the Pope and the Cardinals. Ho then asked the owner some questions which elicited the high estimation in which the owner held his chronometer, which had been made to his order by the cel ebrated Breguet. The enthusiasm of his eminence amused the Pope, who looked on attentively as Torrini, after saying that he should prove the solidi ty and excellent qualities of the watch, suddenly let it fall to the ground. Everybody was amazed at the boldness of this act and the Cardinal, unable to restrain his indignation, vehemently exclaimed : “ You are playing a very sorry jest, sir.” “ But, monsigneur,” calmly replied tho magician, “there Is no cause for alarm. I only wish to prove to these gentlemen the perfection of your watch, and yon may rest assured that it will not he injured by the trials to which I may subject it.” With these words he stamped on the case, crushing it into, a shapeless mass. This act still further excited the fire of the Cardinal; but the.Pope, who took a more sensible view of the matter, turned to him and said: “ Come, Cardinal have you no con fidence in our sorcerer? For any part, T laugh like! a child at.it, . being con vinced there has been some clever sub stitution.” Torrini, who was delighted with the success of his trick, assured h ; s holi ness that there had been no si Institu tion, and appealed to the Cardinal for identification of his watch. The lat ter, after examining the shapeless frag ments, and finding his arms engraved inside the case, acknowledged that it was indeed his beloved chronometer, and added in a stem voice: “ I do not see as how you can escape, sir ; you should have tried your dan gerous experiment on some object that could be replaced, instead of an unique watch like mine.” The magician, after declaring that this circumstance gave him additional satisfaction, ns it enhanced the credit of his performance, asked the Cardin al’s permission to proceed. But the latter said that, as he had not been consulted in the destruction of the watch, he did not care what became of the fragments. Having established the identity of the Cardinal’s chronometer, Torrini’s next object was, to pass into the Pope’s pocket the one he had bought the pre vious evening. As this could not lie easily done while his holiness remained seated, the magician hit upon a pre text to make him rise. Placing a brass mortar, with an enormous pestle, upon the table, he threw in the frag ments of the watch, and began pound ing furiously. Suddenly a slight de tonation was heard; a lurid flame shot up from tho vessel into which Torrini gazed with an expression of profound astonishment. Respect for the Pope prevented the audience from rising; but his holiness, curious to sec the cause of the conjurer’s interest, ap proached the table and looked into tne mortar. “ I do not know,” lie said, “whether it is because the light dazzles my eyes, but I can distinguish nothing.” Torrini then begged him to come round the tahlo and choose a more fa vorable point of observation, and, as he moved, dexterously slipped the re serve watch into his pocket. The Car dinal’s chronometer, had now been re duced to a small ingot. Holding it up before the audience, the magician said: “ I will now restore this crude mass to its original shape, and the tranfor- mation shall take place during its pas- saga to the pocket of a person who cian- not be suspected of complicity.” “ Ah!” said the Pope, with an ex pression of ocular incredulity; that is promising a good\ deal What you do if I asked pocket t” “ The orders ofyour holiness shall be sbeyed,” said Torrini, who, on {re ceiving’an assenting bod from the Pope, took the ingot in his fingers, showed it to the company, and utteted the word “Pass !”* when it- instantly disapneared. Pius J1L, with : an incredulous exprcSsioriofcountenance, nut his band into hiB pocket. He bad hardly done so when ne showed signs of confusion, and, drawing his hand out, brought with it the watch, which nesting-’ “ broken watch;” for the expenses of undertaking .an experiment, which could never again he repeated under such favorable auspices, would be war ranted only by the circumstances which originally brought together the Pope and the Conjurer. BUYING A HORSE. * I invented for occasion to crown his other ex- E wts.

There is more money lost, and more men are dfifa—dsd,iwbn>iag ami seHftig hor ses than in any other product of the farm. For the last twenty years I have had all sorts aud shapei of horse-, from the pony to the Shanghai, and the greatest weights in the least bulk, is the animal for service. A horse weigh ing from 1100 to 1400 pounds is the animal for farm work. You must understand what you want an animal for before you go to buy. One min ute is long enough to examine the standing points of a horse. These are: A good lively eye, inclined to hazel, and a pleasant countenance ; a flat leg and open foot; shoulders set rather hack, and thin at the weathers ; a short back, and no objection if it slightly arched ; the proper shape of the hin der parts depends on what you wish the horse to perform. The prevailing blemishes are blind ness or weak eyes, ringbone, spavin, hoofhound, curbed or thorough pinned, stifled, &c., all of which an expert ob server will detect in one minute’s time. The heaves is the most difficult to de tect, as that depends upon the treat ment the animal has had for a week previons. The thumps or palpitating of the heart may be detected easily bymoving and exciting the horse, and stopping him suddenly. As to the ageof a horse hurting him, it depends upon how he has been used until he is six years old. If sound then, he is good for twelve years ser vice yet. Judging the age of a horse by his mouth is uncertain. You can tell to a certainty within one year until he is six years old, then you must judge from general appearance. Some judges rely on the tusk about the same numbers of mares have tusks as horses that have none. Some men %-ill tell you that they know the age of a horse by the jaw or the wrinkles about the eve, or the joints of the tail. You might as well say that you knew the age of a man by the wrinkles is his face. The wear ing of the teeth depends upon the general health and lungs of the anjmal. Bad teeth follow diseased lungs. In purchasing a horse, depend upon your judgment, and when you trade, do not ask a neighbor, as every man ought to know his own business. If there is much talking to be done, let the other do it. What you say, let it lie to the point, and stand to if. —Ohio Farmer. . “.

There was great astonishmentamong the dignitaries of the Church when his eminence, on examining the watch, declared it was the very one that had been made for him by Breguet, and which they had seen crushed to pieces by the conjurer. The mystery was in creased when Torrini declared that he had fulfilled his promise, and had only tested the superiority of the chronom eter.

This .strange and unnatural phenomenon is accounted for or the supposition that after the wind had swept the snow off the hills then the dry earth was taken up and scattered over the face of the snow, giving it this pecular coloring. This would be a satisacory oxplantion if this Unusual apearance had been con fined to localities, but accounts say it was general.” A Good Turk — “I understand, Mr. Jones, that you can turn anything neater than any other man in town/' “Yes, Mr. Hmith, I think so.” “Ahem !

You just name the article that I can’t cave that you can turn, and I will give you this quarter if I do not do it to the satisfaction of these gentlemen present.” Here Mr. Smith table the quarter.
