Another hdcrcNting example of klepto
mania is recorded of . a very respectable
ivottirb clergyman, in the prima of life,
and othcrwiao dirfiuguiahed for hi l arn
in pinty and charity. Ha stohi li.ble
with asjo ial viow to the fl-ty of Uud by

and he was much in earnest hi the cnuver-
aiuii of soul by the emitrubfind prwes as
the uiot-t cntbuHaMio forcijio mttsionsry
eonld he in his calling. . ;
, .He was at lull detected in wmdemlo Hi-bleu-iilitg,

him on tha hed,-- - - .--,.....

Ilia poor people perish of gxipel-heiigtir,

afford to feed them without the hss1,
and so God set mo to sloal fa? tbew ani
save them.' -:
Ho could not he pcrsnadirw that he bad
doiie wrong.. The delmtioa of the clergy
man, who was a very poof maa, aalntslly
suggested insanity.' Hot be was perfectly
sane upon all other points, and it is doubt
ful whether bo wnnld have received the
betiuGt of hw malady whether, indeed,' it
would have bsen admitted as a malady at
alt If a learned and" philosophical physi
cian in a neighboring town had not posi
tively sworn thst ho was lb 'victim tf

Another case rejwrted is that of a lady
who could nut rcftiitt tbe stealing of silk
stockings. lte was rich, and a leader in
the fashionable circles of liondon. Titer
was no sign of a depraved iutelloct, and,
apart from this one vice, she was exceed
ingly reostictiiaou, . It was no secret in
her family, and hof eldest son she being
a widow si way went himself to the store
where the had rosJo ber last purchases, to
find nut whether they had missed any
stockitig after her departure. Aa it Dearly

TLe Detroit Free Pruas gives the follow
ing account of how the hunter became the
huuted : 1 !
A man Darned Cl.as. Tyrell was hunting
uu the Kt.' Clair river wh?n two hears ap
peared. Somewhat exci'ed he leveled bis
ri;U and tiroJ, and t'uo next momont both
bears wuts coming down upon him at full
speed. ' Tho hunter saw that they meant
bui.ir each uttering fierce growls, and
he dropped bis gnn, caught hold of the
limb of a small oak tree, and swotig hu
tegs np jet in time to save bU hoots. As
be excted, one of them was nut long in
attempting to secure a close acquaihtauso.
The animal got up aW.nt set.Mi ; feet, and
then tho limb refused to lot bun by, lie
pawed, lit and growled at a great rate,
and iu making a big effort to push away
tlie limb, fell to tbe ground. 1 jrcll com
aaenced shouting, wbioli excited tho hears,
aud one of tbem was quickly up to the
limbs again, when the hunter struck a
match and dropped it down on bruin's head,
frightening bint so that bo went down the
tree at a lively raw. The hunter- bad a
hvuta doxon matches with him, - and every
trute the hoars started to climb he would
light on snd let it fall, tho trick never
failing to stop their ascent. After a time
Loth seemed to go swy, snd the hunter
rerefnllr commenced todewwnd. He was
int about to touch the ground when both
tbe bosrs cam 3 cnsrgtng at khu out oi van
darkness, and bo had to go up again, one
of bis boots being raked by claws before ho
was above the limbs. Tbo animal made
no further efforts to climb the tree, hut
tore around ' for a full hour at it base.
Tyrell dared not descend for fear that they
had laid a snare for him, aud passed the
entire bight astride of a limb, - lit the
morning he found tho boar that he had
Gred at dead at tho foot of tho troo, but
the bth;r had disappeared, and tho hunter
got safoly off with the poil.

, Tho fact that tho Qneen of Belgium- has
recently been snnouoood iu a court sf law
by a Brussels modistei' for , CtOO franift
(1-3,400); the allogod lvalue of certain ar
ticles of dress . supplied to- Her - Majosty,
which sum tho latter refuses to pnyr on the
ground of its being an exorbitant demand,
moves the l'biluduljibia Ledger to say;' i ;;
Tbe- tilinrigee in the fuehions. which otio
hears talked of: so incessantly, and for
which thoiif-aud of people, are compelled
to pay extravagant sums, there being no
appeal from tho absurd tyranny, are orig
inated in these modistes not by any means
as improvement on provioua fashions, nor
because they are more becoming, bnt be
cause they provide au excuse for spending
money aud wasting time on the part of
those w ho have uo worthier occupation than
to 'study th fashion. Thus, no sooner
hatt 6ne style eoruo into vogue, tltau - it is
mysteriously whispered that certain things
are worn a little longer, or shorter, or ful
ler, pr highor. or lower, or a lighter color, '
or of a darker, or they aro worn snunre in
stead of round, or round instead of square
or braided, or flounced, or with tucks, or
plain, or eorod. or with a train, or without
one, or with high heels, or no hoela or
feathers instead of (lowers, or with enor
mous paniers, oo which any one could eit
while the wearer is walking alone tbe street
iu short there is no end to the absurdities
which aro daily , perpotrsted Lxtnder jthe
name of fashion ' yet this tyranny ap-
trar to be more Gruily established than any
ingdom or republic. ' No -one seem to
have the courage to resist it, on this side
of the aUsotic at least ; oo the othor, how
ever, the Crowo lrinces of Prussia, the
oldest daughter of Quoen Victoria, follow
ing tbe excellent example of her mother,
who ha sever yielded to tho demands of
fashion, ha inaugurated a league of ladies
whose purpose it 'to cultivate plainness
and modesty of dress, with good taste, he
fitting materials, but uo extravagance nor
meretricious display.' Toe idea was also
taken np by a baud of ladies at tho late
Hocial bcicnce meeting in Kngland, who
aTeea that tbe true way to rescue Society
fiotn tbe untragooud luveoUous and tho ru
inous expenditure which ' characterize the
dres of tbe dsy, is to . revolutionize the
idoas and s'yle of the boudoir and tho sa
lons, and introduce modesty end economy
among themselves, and they seriously ia

Tbcy aro united at the anterior part of
tho chest by a prolongation a kind of
fleshy bsnd, tho size of the hand. This
hand of flash is about two inches broad and
four ioocs t thick. Tbe whole mass is
tough and cspablo of being considerably
extended. WLilo you may whispor ii the
oar of one without the other hearing; while
volatile salts applied ' to the nottrils of oue
has no effect on the other ; and while pinch
ing the arm of one excites no sensation in
the othori still if yon but stick a fin in
th exact vertical eentre of this connecting
link, both will flinch from the hurt. These

of drafts, make pretty much tho same

qncntly play against each other. They
are both married and have grown children

are informed by gentleman from- Ilobc- -son
that Henry Barry Lowery,' Governor
of Scuflleton and its tributaries, went to
tbe house of Capt. Baker, in the vicinity of
tied Jiiinks, a few dsy since, and very po
litely informed him that the object of bis
visit was to get some meat. Mrs. Isaker,
without a inomeut's hesitation, which tho
family knew would bo useless, handed the
bold outlaw the key to her smoke house
aud told him to help himself. , He there
fore appropriated three large pieces of meat
and took bis loavo. Lowery, in the course
of his visit, informed Mr. Baker that ho
bad quit stealing provisions ia., and would
hereafter levy contributions in, the day
time, consequently if any person' property
waa molested iu this night time tho victim
might rely upon it, that he nor any of his
party had anything to do with it. Lowery
says furthermore that heroaftcr, ha shall
molest nobody, in the way of personal vi-
olence, unless he is first interfered with by
them. Wil. Stir.
