A Warren couutycorrespondonco ofthe Vicksburg Times gives the following ao- coun t of what bo and his brother saw whon returning from a lnorry-maklng, about 2 o'clock fa the morning: “Suddenly n bright light, shollar to tv bright flash of llghining, but much bright er, tfcll across the road, nnd, iu ihet, all around us, and frightened our horse and caused us to lliluk instantly of highway men with dark lanterns nnd pistols: hut, upon looking up to ooo from whenco this bright light proceeded, wo were notouly relieved to flud'thal It did not coino from tho dark lantern of atobber, but wore sur prised to sco a streak or blaze of lire extend ing across the heavens from northeast to southwest, and gradually dying away to- wni'dstha southwest. "Tlie.sizo of this great liglitis almost in- crediblo to relate. Shaped similar to that of n wedge was a point nt tlto northeast; at tho butt-end It appeared to bo about tho si. ;u of a man’s body, gradually going to apolul. TheHchthad entirely disappear ed in about two!vo or fifteen seconds.” TUo rromnlnre Burial. Tlio Naw York World says: Hardly a wcok passes that wo do not hear of a pre mature burial. The story alwnys comes to us nearly in tho Bavuo sslutpe. A coffin Is exhumed for one reason and another, nnd the corpse Is found to have changed its position, while Iho shroud is torn la several plncca. Immediately ovory ono whole cognizant of tbo oveut lumps to the very unnecessary conclusion that tho coffin was Interred with a living Inmate, who, on returning to consciousness, had strug gled violently, though hopelessly, to es cape. Now, t lie theory of prematura bu rial In such cases ns those Is out’rely.gra tuitous. Evory medical man knows that tbo gasses generated bv decomposition fi-o- qucntly act with sufficient foreo not only to change the position of a corpse after bu rial but even to burst opon (lie coffin.— Were the inmates of any largo ccmotcry to bo exhumed, tho enmo appearances which are now noccpted ns ovtdcnccs of premature burial would lie found to exist in scores of eases; probably, indeed, in tho majority of Instances tn which the burial had been sufficiently recent to admit of tho possibility of detecting any chnngo in tho position of tho body. Unfortunately this well-substantiated ihet Is not generally known oxcopt to scientific men. Conse quently wo hear continually of premature burials, which aro certainly among the most disagreeable ilemBof Hews which ono can meet, and which bring incalculable grief and horror to t he friends of tho sup posed victims. It is not Impossible that in rare instances some unfortunate person is buried lieforo Ufa is entirely extinct, bat to conclade from tbe mere apjicarance of an oxhamed coffin that tlio inmate has been tho victim of Buch accident is In tho highest degree unreasonable and unneces sary. | • An Apt Reply. An old schoolmaster said ono day to a clergyman who Como to examine his school, ”1 believe tho children know the catechism word for word.” “But do they understand it? Thatisthoqucslion.” said the clergyman. Tbo schoolmaster bowed respeclndly, and tho examination began. A little boy repeated tho fifth commandment, “Honor thy father and thy mother,” and ho was desired to cx- E *'' i it. Instead of trying to do so the boy, with his facocovored withhlush- ce, said almost in a whisper, “Yesterday I showed a strange gentleman over the inouutain. Tho sharp stones cut my feet, and tho gentleman saw they Were nlced- tug, and gavo me money to buy me shoes, I gavo it to my mother, for she had no shoes, and I thought I could go barefoot belter than oho could.” MalrlraoDF* When lient on matrimony, look more than skin deep for beauty, dlvo farther than tlio pockot for worth, and searcb for temper beyond tlio good humor of tho mo ment romombering it is not always the most agreeable partners at a lull who forms tho most amiable partner for life.— Virtue like some flowers, bloom often In tbo sbado DH.

Boys, in selecting a business by which to gain a livelihood through life, will do well to pondor tbo words of Ilorntio Sey mour before making their choice: “I sco around me many gentlemen,” lio said in a recent speech, “wiio like myself, belong to llic pursuaslon of law. Wo are jealous of our profession; but gentlemen, let me toll you, that no lawyer that over lived In tho pursuit of his profession ever added ono dollar of wealth to tho country, no ph clan over did; no preacher over did hanker ever did.
