I’m not a brute, nor never was; aud if a man called me that I’d boot him sure.’ And then I biled right over, and unbut- toned my coat collar to keep me from bustin’ off my buttons. Th widder saw I was go ing to explode, or else collap-e my windpipe, and she flung her arms around my neck, put her lips to mine, and cooled right down- ‘Jehuel, dear,’ said she, in an insinuatin’ way, and voice as sweet as a hand organ; “ Jehuel, honey, I vanted to go to church to get mar-—no, I can’ say it all: you finish the word, Jehuel sweet" ‘What word, mam ?’ ‘ Oh, you stupid ; Jehuel dear, I mean the word married, my love.’ ‘ Married, widder’ said I; ‘did you mean that?’ ‘ Indeed I did, Jhuel, love.’ ‘ Look here, marn, my name isn’t Jehuel Love, nor Jehuel Dear, nor Jehuel Sweet, I’d have you to know; and I won’t get mar ried to nobody but one, and you are not the one.’ Oh, pewter pennies, but didn’t she rare? She made a dash at me; I dodged and she went butt up against the upper end of the omnibus. Crack went her comb, and smash went the bran new bonnet that I didn’t buy for her, and down she went with her face in the straw. But in a moment she rose again, and made one more dash at me. I dropped —she wout over me and butted the door of the omnibus. The strap broke and out she went—her gaiter boots higher than her head, as she struck the pavement. father, did right in treating- him as she did. That father was her enemy, but she was not his. He hated her, but she loved him. A MAN KILLED—Last night, between seven and eight o’clock, a quarrel occurred at a boarding house at the corner of Bryan and West Broad streets in which a man name Wm. McNichols was killed. It appears that the quarrel was between the deceased and an other boarder in the house, name James Campbell, and that it commenced at the tea table and the presumption is that the blow which caused the death of the deceased,was in flicted by the said Campbell. Information having been conveyed to Capt. J.P.W.Read, of the City police, and Sheriff Russell, steps were immediately taken £ arrest of Campbell. He was found in a bar room playing bagatelle, and was at once con veyed to the guard house, where he is detain- In a jolly company, each one was to ask a question. If it was answered, the proposer paid a forfeit, or if he could not answer it himself, he paid' a forfeit. Pat’s question was: ‘How does the little ground squirrel dig his hole without showing any dirt about the entrance ?' 1 When they all gave it up, Pat said: 'Sure, do you see he begins at the other end of the hole ?’ One of the rest exclaimed: ‘ But how did he get there?' • Ah,’ said Pat, ‘ that's your question, can you answer it yourself ?' FELLOW TRAVELERS.—‘ Will you help me out of this mud-holo ?’ said a traveling drug- gist, who had just been compelled to stop his team in a mud-hole, because they couldn’t pull it out. ‘ No, I can’t stop,’ said the Yankee, who was heavily loaded and was fearful that he would be too late for the cars. ‘ I would take it as a great favor, besides WILLIAM E.

JOHN ATTAWAY, ly ‘ Drive on !’ I yelled to the driver. ‘ Woman overboard !’ cried a passin sail- or. ‘Stop that white coat—breach of promise —reward—Herald—publish!' shrieked the widder in tones of nortal agony, while tears of blood streamed from her beautiful pug nose. ‘ Drive on! drive on ! I shouted. Where to ! asked the driver. ‘ To the devil—to Harlem—to Malcomb's Dum—anywhere, so we escape matrimony and the widder.! He started, so did the widder ; and then we had it up the avenue, buss having the start a hundred yard--Foot by foot the wid der gained. Thinks I Jehuel you area gon- er. I thought it best to lighten ship. So first I hove overboard the straw. Still she gained 01 me. Then overboard the cushions. Batstill she gained. ‘ More steam, driver, for mercy’s sake ! I yelled. • We are going fater than the law allows now.' he answered. ‘Thirteen miles an hour.’ Jehosophat, how .he widder run; she hove off her bonnet and came up hand over hand, A thought struck me, so I off with my white coat and flung it right down in her path. She sprang on it like a she panther, and tore it to pieces. Oh, how they flew. I wept to see it go, but life is sweeter than acoat, and my tailor is making me a new one. Here we gained full two hundred yard-, but on she came again. Once more I could see the green in her eyes. Merciful Moses, how I felt. ‘Driver,’ said I, 'kill them horses or get another mile out of them. ‘ Will you pay for ’em ?’ he said. 'Yes, yes,’ said I, 'only save me from the widder.’ By cracky, we did slide; the widder no longer gained but held her own beautifully. Thus we had it—out past the Red House— through Harlem—where Captain Graham with three mounted policemen in vain at tempted to catch us, he probably supposing that we were running away with some - bank fund. My only hope was in reaching Degroot’s ahead of her, for I knew they would hide me. We were on the bridge, and oh ! Moses, the draw was up, and a loop going through. ‘ Driver,’ said I, ‘jimp that bridge and I’ll make your fortune for life sure as you’re born.’ ‘I’ll do it or die l’he creid; and he did it. The widder jumped after us, fell into the Harlem river, and hasn’t been heard of since. Cruelty killed by Kindness. A young woman u Vermont married a poor but worthy mat, against her father’s wish. He drove them from his house and closed his door against them. They came into the vicinity of Boston, went to work, • and prospered. After many years the father had occasion to go to Boston. He concluded to go and see his daughter, expecting a cold reception. His daughter and her husband re ceived him most kindly and lovingly. After staying with them a while lie went back to Vermont. One of his neighbors, hearing where he had been, asked him how his daugh ter and husband had treated him. “I never was so treated befor in my life,” said the weeping and broken-hearted father. “They have broken my heart—they have killed me—I don’t feel as though I could live under it.“ What did they do to you?” asked tlie neighbor. "Did they abuse you?" “They loved me o death, and killed me with kindness’” sail he. "I can never for give myself for treaing so cruelly my own darling daughter, whiloved me so affectionate ly. I feel as if I should die when I think how I grieved my precious child, when I spurned her from ny door. Heaven bless ed, with other parties as witnesses, for er investigation of the matter.

A few days since a gentleman residing in Rising Sun, Indiana, who had married a se cond time wished to remove the body of his wife to a new cemetery. Preparations were made to that effect and laborers opened the grave in the usual manner but when they reach ed the coffin they could not lift it so great was the weight. After obtaining considera ble assistance however the men succeeded in raising the coffin from the tomb. They then could not resist the. temptation of peering into the coffin and learning the reason for its unusual weight and found instead of the re mains of a corpse a stone figure the exact counterpart of the woman who had died. This strange story soon spread and hundreds and thousands of persons were present to see the strange spectacle. The husband took the body of his departed spouse home and has it there now where it is visited by hundreds of the curious and scientific. The body seems to have been pet- trifled, ard to have become a perfect stone women- The probability is that the body has become adipocere, and will before long melt or crumble A Caution to Young Men. A yound medical student from Michigan who had been attending lectures in New York for some time, and considered himself exceedingly good looking and fascinating, made a deadly onset on the heart and fortune of a blooming young lady who was boarding in the same house with him. After a pro longed siege the lady surrendered. They were married on Wednesday mornin. The same afternoon the “young wife” sent for and exhibited to the astonished student a • beautiful little daughter,” three and a half years of age. “ Good’ Heavens ! then you were a widow," exclaimed the astonished student. “ Yes, my dear, and this is Amelia, my youngest; to-morrow, Augustus, James and Reuben will arrive from the country, and then I shall have all my children together once more." The unhappy student replied not a word; his feelings were too deep for utterance. The next day the “other darlings" arrived. Reu ben was six years old, James nine, and Au gustus a saucy boy of twelve. They were delighted to hear they had a “new papa,” because they could not live at home and have all the playthings they wanted! The “new papa," as soon as he could speak, remarked that Augustus and James did not much re- semble Reuben and Amelia. "Well, no,” said the happy mother, “ my first husband was quite a different style of temperament, color of hair aud eyes all dif ferent.” This was too much, He had not only married a widow, but was her third husband and the astonished step father of four chil dren. “ But her fortune,” thought he, “ that will make amends." He spoke of her for- tune. §These are my treasures,” says she, in the Roman matron style pointing to her children. The conceit was now quite taken out of the Michigander, who, finding that he had made a complete goose of himself, at once retired to a farm in his native State, where he could have a chance to render his “ boys” useful, and make them sweat for the deceit practiced upon him by their mother. A clergyman catechising the youths of his parish, put the first question in the Heidel berg Catechism to a girl. ‘What is your consolation in life or death?’ The poor girl smiled, and no very queer, but gave no answer, insisted. ‘ Well then, said she if I must doubt felt The priest tell, it is the little shoemaker that wears a striped jack- et.’ “We have the most religious hens," said a little girl,” that ' ever you saw. They never drink the least drop of water, without looking up to the sky between every swallow, I suppose to thank God. I am sure such hens are an example to us all Now Is The Time To Subscribe! FOR THE. Southern Literary Messenger ONE OF THE CHEAPEST PUBLICATINOS IN THE COUNTRY. TWO VOLUMES A YEAR, Eacli containing at least 480 pages, in neat style, with fine Cover, and Advertising Sheet. The Two Volumes furnished for Only Three Dollars a year! For the year 1858. Twenty-Sixth and Twenty-Seventh Volumes. In issuing the Prospectus of the Twenty-Sixth and Twenty-Seventh Volumes of the SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER, commencing with the January No., the Proprietors beg to assure tlie public that no exertions will be remitted on their part to maintain lite high character of the work, and to challenge the patronage of all who value sterling literary merit. For Twenty-Three Years, the Messenger has endeavored to reflect faithfully the Southern mind, while disdaining all narrow and sectional views, and has been alone among the monthly periodicals of America, in defence of the Peculiar Institutions of the South- ern Country. To this office it will still be devoted, and will be prompt to repel assau’ts up on the South, whether they come under the spe cious garb of fiction, or in the direct form of anti- slavery pamphlets. At this critical juncture, while'our enemies are employing literature as their most potent weapon of attack, the Southern peo ple will surely not withhold their encouragement fom a work whose aim it shall be to strike blows in their defence. The MESSENGER will, as heretofore, present its readers with Reviews, Historical and Biograph ical Sketches, Novels, Tales, Travels, Essays, Po ems, Critiques, and Papers on the Army, Navy, and other National Subjects. With a view to ensure a large circulation of the Messenger, the Proprietors have re duced the price of Subscription, which is now only Three Dollars the most approved principles. He will visit Waynesboro, to meet ongageme, the first week in December. 17 Charges Moderate and all operations w ranted. October 16 1858, ly DR. JOHN A.
