A fat puoil in one of the schools of Beverly, Massachu setts, was in tbe act of sitting down when the shoi k of the earthquake shook the build ng which the teacher attributed to the abrupt manner in which the lad took his seat, for which offense he was required to stand for three-quarters of an hour.

There was a public road leading by a meeting-house,there grave- Und vein. Ejirly moonlight t he was fee other went off to stea a sheep. The first one having accomplished his business, wrapped a shroud around him, and took a seat in the meeting-house door to wait for hie com panion. A man on foot, passing along the road towards the tavern, took him to be a ghost, and alarmed almost to death, ran as last ns his feet could carry him to the tavern, which he reached out of breath. As smut a> he could speak, he declared that he had seen a ghost robed in white, sitting in the church door. Nobody would believe his story, bul incredulous as they were no one could be lound that hud courage enough to B°' At length a man who was so afflicted with the rheumatism that he could scarcely walk, declared he would go if the man would carry him there, lie at once agreed, t >ok him on his back, and off they went. Wheu they got in sight, sure enough it was as he said ! Wishing to satisfy themselves well, and get as near a view as possible of his ghost-ship in the dimlight, they kept venturing nearer and nearer. The man with the shroud around him took them to be his companion with a sheep on his back, and asked iu a low tone of voice— ‘ls he fat ?’ Meeting with no reply, he repeated the question, raising his voice higher. ‘ls he fat?’ Still no reply. Then, in a vehement tone he called : ‘ls he fat ?’ This was enough. Tbe man with the other on his back replied— ‘Fat or lean, you may have him.’ And dropping the invalid, he traveled back to the tavern as fast as his feet would carry him. But he had scarcely arrived there, when along came the invalid on loot, too! The sudden fright had lured him of rheumatism ; and from that time forward he was a cured man. Outrages at the South—Who are Res ponsible !—At the great Boston Democratic tneetiDg. on Thursday, John Quincy Adams, in an eloquent speech on the position of parties, referred to the outcry got up every year about outrages at the South to influ ence party prejudices at the North. It is mostly false ; but supposing it true, what then ? What does it prove? Only this, that if you will vi late the law of free governmeut, you must take the qonsequeuces. If you will trample on men’s pride and sentiment yes or even on the cherished prdjudices, so say nothing of their rights—you may look for “outrages.” Why, gentlemen. I have read of these outrages in history before now; and where do you think they occur? Why, Ireland has been famous for “out rages” for centuries. Poland has been a land of outrages. Hungary wa- for vety many years a very nest aud hot bed of out rages, and indeed site became so outrageous that Austria had finally to find a cure. And she found one, my friends, a perfect cure, not on “outrage” now to be heard of. And what was it? Why, she restored to Hun gary her constitutional rights; that is till. And as soon as we restore to the South her lights under the Constitution we shall hear no more of “outrages.” No wonder there are outrages. I won der there are not more. I am sure wa should not be ns quiet if the cases were reversed. I know we were not at a 1 quiet one hundred years ago when it was tried here. I fear if you should put the Asiatics to rule over us, as we have put the African to rub. over them, there would be some trifl ing outrages going on. But there is very little'need of polit cal violence down there, though certainly there are s *me “outrages ” I know' of one myself; a plain, manifest, flagrant, intolerable outrage upon free gov ernment arid constitutional law, and that is “reconstruction” irself. General Lee was a plain, unassuming man. “The sword of Lee” never flashed to any great extent, through Father Ryan’s rhymes indicate to the contrary. A chap lain relates in the Cincinnati Commercial, that at one time during the seven days' battle around Richmond, the great Confed era e, wearing a plain suit of gr*v with the stars of a colonel, was quietly sitting under a tree, the approaching shades of evening concealing even his stats, when an impetu ous surgeon galloped up and abruptly said, “Old man, I have chosen that tree for my hospital, and I want you to get ou r of the way.” “I will cheerfully give place when t te wounded come, doctor, but. in the mean* time, there is plenty of room for both of us,” wa6 the m-‘ek rejoinder. The irate surgeon was about to make s >me harsh re ply, when, to his utter consternation, a staff officer rode up and addressed his “Old mao” as Genera! Lee. To his profuse apologies and explanations the General quietly replied, *Tt i« no matter, doctor, there is plenty of room fur both of us until our wounded are brought in.” Fallino in Love.— The man who like* chatty women finds his doom in a girl who never opens htrs lips ; the cynic who hates bread and butter tumbles before a miss in her teens ; the prim young neophyte of the parsonage worships the horriest of Dianas. No doubt there it a little method in all this madness, aud a philosopher yet to come w >ll rescue this little bit of outlying existence from the realm of caprice But, as yet, no one has brought love within the calculation of chances It is just; as impossible as it was in the days of our forefathers to predict whom we shall tall in love with.

Some t'lnee they look ninety, but I have seen them look as young aa eighty-und-fbrty. In a lew days they throw ..ff the old exis tence and are fairly embarked upon this real sea of human life, where they will hare rocks and sh* als and quicksands enough before they can come into any sort of hav en. And yet there is something maddening about a baby. Boswell is leported to have once said to Dr Johnson : '*Sir, what would you do if yon wete shut up in a tower w ith a lathy ?” 1 forget what tbe response was. ‘ Sir, yon are a fool,’’ J shou and suppose, or something equally laconic and straightfor ward. The suggestion is an awful one. probably an impassible one; but still the dread idea reenrs—“What would a man do if he were shut up alone with a baby?”— London Society. Dr Dokimus, of New York city, has pre pared h trew plan by which the dael can be made perfectly fair to both parties, and at the same t me yield a pleasurable < »version to the hostile principals for a number of minutes. His plan is that, instead ot meet ing with pistols and a surgeon some raw morning. In a lonely field, the two injured parties simply repair to a comfortable room, with two ounces of corrosive subli mate, a pack of cards, and a stomach-pump. AM being ready each man swallows an ounce of the poison ; then they sit down and play “seven up" for the stomach-pump. The winner is saved ; the loser gracefully yields his breath ; both are satisfied, all is lair and the public morals are preserved. A ctTßiocs trial comes off before Squire Bell, of Prairie Township, to-day. It seems that Mr Gain and bis son dug and piled up several bushels of potatoes one day last week They then left them over night in the field, and in the morning found near one of the piles a pocket book containing a breast-pin bearing the initials of the wife of a Mr. Davis, and on measuring the pota tos several bushels were missing. Cain took the breast-pin to Mrs. Davis, she claiming it as her own, stating that she had lent it to a neighbor. Cain refused to give up the pin until he had investigated the subject of the missing potatoes. The result is a law suit brought by Davis to recover possession of the pin.— Xeieeastle Courier. Some umbrageous traitor without the fear of the Union League before his eyes, has turned the statue of Linooln on Union Square around, so the cheap contrivanr* intended to hand down to posterity the fair form of the martyr President, looks no more into the window of the Chinese doctor, or into the restaurant olose by. as if for cold vituals, but over to see what Washington is doing. If he had looked more to the Father of his Country when in life, this were o happier country than now. But who gave the statue this last twist, and now, anil why ? Did the Chinese physic man object, or was he tired of gaxirig southward over the ruins his party left to mark their war for spoons, cotton, niggers, and places for car pet-bag criminals?

The Radical press of the country has been assiduously engaged for some time in reporting Chief Justice Chase as failing in health and dimmed to soeedy death. The wish has been undoubtedly father to the thought. Radicalism wants his place filled by someone willing to prostitute the posi tion to Radical u»es. The better public will be glad to learn that the Chief Justice’s health :s so improved that he will resume his seat shortly on the bench.
