| Oue of the Talmud treatises gives
j following story : “Rabbi Jehosha
j Beu Levi was a righteous man, and
when the time approached when he
must die, the holy and blessEd God
said to th j angel of death, ‘Comply
; with all that he requiretli of thee ; and
the angel of death drew near to Jehos
ha, and said, ‘The time is near when
thou must depart this life : I will grant
thee what thou requirest and the
Rabbi said, ‘My request unto thee is
that thou wilt show me thy place in
Paradise and the angel said, ‘Go a
long with me, aud I will show it thee
and the Rabbi said, ‘Give me thy sword
or knife, that thou rnayest not there
with surprise me. And the angel de
livered into his hands his sword, and
then they went up to gether till they
came into the walls of Par..dise, and
when they were come lip to the walls,
the angel raised Rabbi Jehosha up>
and set him upon them. Then jumped
Rabbi Jehosha Ben Levi from the
wall, and descended into Paradise.
But the angel of death being quick,
caught hold of the skirts of his coat
and said ; Do thou come out of that,
But the Rabbi swore by tho name of
God that, being there, he would not
come out from thence, and the angel
had not power to enter in. There was
consternation among the angels, and
they said, ‘O thou holy and blessed
God! behold what’ this soil of Levi
hath done and tho blessed God said,
‘See if he hath ever before sworn or
broken an oath and they said, ‘He
hath never, in all tho Bays of his life,
broken an oath and then God said :
‘lt is so ? Then he shall not go out.’
Then, when the angel, of death saw
that he could not draw him out he
said to him, ‘Give me my sword.’ And
the Rabbi s lid to the angel: ‘ Swear
to me that thou wilt not be seen
by any man or creature when thou
takest away their souls.’ For be
fore that the angels did openly*
before the face of every one,
slay mankind, even the infant in
its mother’s lap ; and the angel of
death did swear in that hour, and the
Rabbi gave him his sword. There
fore, from that hour, neither the angel
of death nor his sword have been seen
when he strikes. And the angels ex
alted their voice, and they went before
the Rabbi, saying : ‘Make room for
the son of Levi.”
“Abraham is said to have been jeal
ous of bis wives, and built an enchan
ted city for them. He built a city of
iron, and put them in it. The walls
were so high and dark that the sun
could not bo seen in it. He gave
them a bowl full of pearls and jewels,
which sent forth a light in this dark
city equal to the sun. Noah, when in
the ark, had no other light than jewels
and pearls Abraham, in traveling to
Egypt, took with him a strong chest.
At the custom-house , the officers ex
acted the duties. Abraham would
have readilypaid, but desired that they
should not open the chest They first
insisted upon tho duty for clothes,
which Abraham consented to pay ;
but then they theught, by his prompt
acquiescence, that it might be gold.
Abraham consents to pay for gold.
They now suspect it might be silk.
Abraham was willing to pay for silk or
more costly pearls, and he generously
consented to pay as if the chest con
tained the most valuable of things.
It was then resolved to open and ex
amine the chest; and, behold ! as so m
as the chest was. opened, that great
lustre of hyman beauty broke out
which made such a noises in the land
of Egypt. It was Sarah herself! The
jealous Abraham, to conscal her beau
ty, had locked hex- up & the chest.’
—The stories of natural history are
about as reliable as the following .
“A large bird would, when hungry,
seize and fly away with an elephant.
When it spreads its wings, it blots out
the sun. An egg from its nost fell
upon the earth and broke—the white
thereof glued together about three
hundred cedar trees and over flowed a
village.
“A Rabbin was once in the midst of
the ocean, and, seeing a bird standing
up to its thighs in the water, lie said to
his companions, ‘W e can bathe here;
but a voice from heaven was head, say
ing; do not so; for seven years ago a
person let an axe fail from his hand
into this water, and it has not yet
reached the bottom.”
“We were once carried,” says a
Rabbin, “in a great ship, and the ship
went three days and three nights be
tween the two fins of one fish. But
perhaps the ship sailed very slowly ?
The Rabbi Demi says : A rider shot
an arrow, and the ship flew faster
than the arrow.”
The Jews’ detestation of Titus, their
great conqueror, appears in the follow
ing : After having narrated things too
shameful to repeat of a prince whom
Josephus describes in far different col
ors, they tell us that on the sea Titus
tauntingly obesrvod, in a grefff storm,
that the God of the Jews was only
powerful on the water, and that, there
fore, he had succeeded in drowning
Pharaoh and his army. “Had he been
strong, he would have waged war with
me in Jerusalem.” On uttering this
blasphemy, a voice from heaven said :
“W icked man, I have a little creature
in the world which shall wage war
with thee.” When Titus landed, a
gnat entered his nostrils, and for seven
years together made holes in his trains,
When his skull was opened, the gnat
was found to be as large as a pigeon.
The inouth of the gnat was of copper, j
and the claws of iron.
The Inauguration Ball.
A miserable correspondent, who
went to the ball, writes thus:
Instigated by the devil, and persud
ed by two angelic faces, I went to
this most beastly exhibition of all that
disfigured the inauguration of Gen.
Grant. Into the narrow corridors and
small rooms of the Treasury was pack
ed to Siiffocatioa a crowed of men and
women, pushing, struggling, fainting,
and almost fighting. Over two thou
sand tickets had been sold, and each
ticket averaged three people. There
were men in swallow-tailed coats,
white chokers, and tight breeches, and
women in ail sorts of costumes, of
which tihe bare neck and arms, with
immense trails, predominated.
We climbed four flights of stairs to
the ladies’ dressing rooms and gentle
men’s cloak rooms. We gave—un
suspecting mortals as we were—our
coats and hats to the reconstructed,
receiving a piece of pasteboard, with a
number on it, in exchange. A dark
suspicion crept over my prophetic soul
that I had parted with my coat and
tile forever. Sandwhiched between
twe lovely females, I began the descent.
A stream of humanity was rushing
up the winding stair —a stream of
humanity was pouring down, and, by
the watch, it took me one hour to
reach the last step at the bottom.
Here we fell into a tide setting heavi
ly westward, a good deal agitated by
a stream of stout policemen, cottop
gloved colored waiters, and some feeble
minded young men, with hair parted
in tho middle, that made a pretty
strong current setting to the east.
For half an hour I and my convay
whirled in an eddy, caused by the pro
jection of a corner. Escaping from
this we fell into mid stream, and made
steady but slow progress.
I suppose that by morning we
might have reached the end of the
corridor, had we not encountered a
cross sea, made up of the diplomatic
corps and some military pumps, that
carried us into a reception room where
the President and family stood firm.
Against these we were dashed with
great violence, made more fearful by a
man who bawled out, “Don’t shake
hands, don’t shake hands.” As the
President and Vice-President kept
violating this order, could not under
stand the meaning of it, unless the
man was the court physician, and feared
we or General Grant would catch the
itch.
This was varied by week females in
tight dresses faiting at inteivals of five
minutes. And the character of the
officials may be gathered from the con
versation I heard between the husband
of a lady ill from the heat and fatigue,
and a functionary. He had carried
her out, and fortunately found a vacant
space in a hall, where there was a little
fresh air, and while he held her up
some servants passed with chairs.
He made an earnest appeal for one
of these, but the stupid fellows refused.
At last he seized one, and was about
seating his wife, when an official came
at him demanding the chair. The
poor man explained, but the fellow
replied he baa his orders —the chairs
were needed for another purpose.
The husband bade his wife sit
and then said :
“Now, if you take that chair, you
must take it from under my wife, aud
I hardly think that will be a healthy
proceeiling.”
“You can gain your purpose in that
way ” exclaimed the fellow, white with
rage’, “but if your wife is sick you had
better take her home.
“Yon are an insolent houn,” roared
the husband, “and if you will give me
your address I’ll smash your dirty
mouth to-morrow, when there are no
women to protect yoi.
I was told that thescense in the sup- j

packed to suffocation. To eat wa i
impossible. But to stir up the tempts
and destroy dresses was the rule.
The long trails, of rich materia’,
suffered at every step. "While trying
to get to the supper room, I felt, for
some time under my feet, what seemed
to be a soft carpet. I found, in a few
minutes, that it was the trail of a lady
some distance in advance. What guys
j women can make of themselves when
they try. I saw some youthful female
donkeys, with their heads plastered
over with white powder and pomatum,
as if their dear little selves had ter
minated in an apple-dumpling.
When at last, tired and disgusted,
We sought the dressing rooms for our
wraps, I found that we were pinned to
the place for two days. Fortunately,
after invading tho ladies’ dressing
room, very improperly, I found their
cloaks, and then I ascended for mine.
I found a crew actually fighting in the
hall above. At the hole in the
door of the cloak, room an idiotic face
made mouths at us in the most exas
perating manner. Long lines were
formed before broken up. I happen
ed to get near my friend, the Profess
or.
“It is my opinion,” he cried, “that
we will be here all night. I do not see
that struggling outside expedites work
on the inside. I cannot go home
without my out-garments. I believe I
can insert my body in that aperture
with your assistance.”
“Go it, Professor,” said I, and the
Professor made a dive. I seized him
by the legs. Two stout men assisted,
and after a brief struggle, in which tho
Professor lost one of his coat tails and
brok hise spectacles, we shot him
through. But alas! and alack ! the
Professor is dreadfully nearsighted,
and losing his glasses he lost his eyes.
I left him moping about in the most
disordered manner.
Decending tho stairs, I encountered
Mr. Horace Greeiy. He was sitting
on a step, and looked as dismal as
Marius amil the ruins of tho Car h ge
Hotel.
“What is Mr. Greeley? ”
I inquired.
“I have lost my hat in that cursed
room of idiots.”
■‘Not your old white hat.”
‘,Yes, my old white hat, and with it
my overcoat. It is lamentable that
the rebles did not take this —town and
bum it to ashes. They showed their
spite by not doing so. It is an in
fernal sinkhole of iniquity, depending
for its miserable existence on the Gov
ernment.”
I felt for the venerable philosopher
lamenting. \ What and extiaordinary
fact it was that he lost his old white
hat. I hail an idea,*,in with
the pensive public, that it could not be
lots. I believed he sell it if
he were to try. He]could not 'give it
or throw it away, and here it was lost
in a cloak room.
This event impressed me deeply. I
went home in the cold, without hat or
overcoat, in the bitter cold, but I iu
minated, I marvelled and [wondered,
and all last night I that the
veaeralle Horace was a ferry boat and
I steered it.
Lost his old white hat,!

From a gentleman who came to this
city yesterday evening on the passen
ger train on the Georgia Railroad, ws
learn that the Warren county murder
was most fearlessly avenged on last
Friday night. Our i formant states
soon after the murder was committed,
• Dr, Darden surrendered himself to the
■Sheriff, aud for his own protection
liked to be imprisoned in the jail of
die county. His request was granted,
and ho .vas lodged in prison, and al
lowed to rotuin his arms in order tha|
he might have some means of defence
f an attack was made upon him by
the friends of his victim.
The affair, ns well as may be imngin-,
od, created the greatest excitement in
the town, and many people coming in
iroin the country, as soon as they
heard the news, swelled the excited,
groups, who were engaged in discuss-,
mg the affair. Later in the day many
K egan to believe that Dr. Darden,
would never appear at the bar of a
court to answer for tho crime, but
would speedily come before a swift;
and more terrible tribunal -that of.
Judge Lynch. Nor did these rumors
prove incorrect. On the night of that,
day, between tho hours of 11 and 12
o’clock, a large body of armed men,
estimated to be about one hundred in.
number, entered the village, apparent
ly coming from the country. Silently,
and in compact array they marched to
the residence of the Jailor, and th >ir
leader demanded of that official tbe
key of the prison. Knowing too well
what must be their object, the Jailor
had the courage to refuse their demand.,
The “Regulators” employed no violence
toward him to enforce their request,
but turned from his house and proceed
ed to the Jail—a building remote from
any other houses.
Arrived there, they kindled a fire at
the door, as the easiest method of ro- •
moving this obstacle, and the door
soon igniting, burned until it could be
easily forced from its hinges, and the
avengers rushed into the building.
The prisoner, warned by the noise out
side, knew that his hour had come; but
he determined to sell his life as deavly
as possible, and when the men reached
the door of his cell he bade them stand
back, that he was armed and would
shoot the firs bone who entered. Tin y
paused at this; but the still burning
door supplied them with a dovico which
they hastened to put in practice. Col
lecting a quantity of fuel they placed
it at the door of tho cell, apparently
determined to make him bui render,
either through fear of suffocation or
burning. Tiiis was ignited, and a vol
ume of smoko poured into the room
so rapidly that the inmate felt that ho
could endure it but a little while long
er, and shouted to the regulators his
willingness to surrender if they would
remove the flames. No sooner had ho
spoken than his request was granted
and ho was told to come forth. But
now that this other death was so near
at hand, revived, too, by tho fresh air,
which had taken the place of tho
smoKe, Dr. Darden again refused to
deliver himself up.
Determined not bo baffled in their
schemo of vengeance, tho fird was
started for tho second time and the
smoking process continued until, al
most suffocated, the wretched man im
plored them to put out the fire, pledg
ing himself to surrender. According
ly the tire was extinguished and, tee
ing it impossible to avert his fate, the
prisoner dropped liis arms and walked
out to receive the sontcnco of this ter
rible court. His first -request was to
be allowed to see his wife and children.
This was refused, but they granted him
permission to write her a note and
carried him to his office, in the village,
for that purpose. Seated in his office,
lie wrote hurriedly a few lines to his wife
and then awaited the disposal of his
