Gholaon and Elrira hi wife, by which the j convey one negro boy NED to Sarah K. Daggett, aad one npgro boy DAVY to Stephen Daett the vendors ivarranfing the li- Ue and aoundnts of said negro boys. These deeds are duly acknowledged according to the laws of .Mississippi, and. placed on record in the count of Pontotoc, in said State. These sale bills, or deeds, are in the hand-writiog of Judge Gholson himself, and are now in the possession of the editor of the Cleveland National Democrat. This is the way that Judge Gholson man- utniUed his patrimonial slaves. He parted com pan? wiih these two boys for the sum of $1,400 to him in cash paid, and he left them in Mississippi, slaves fur life, while he made his way to Cincinnati with the money in bis pockets. That is what the Hamilton county delegates to the Republican Slate Convention call setting his negroes free, and by which story they completely captur ed Old Giddinggand he gave his orders that Swan must be defeated, Spalding laid aside, and Gholsoo nominated. It is now quite clear that Gbblson cheated Giddings and all the "Saints" at the Republican Convention. He permitted his friends to lie for him, was nominated by bs.se fraud, and for this alone he stands before the people of 'Ohio a disgraced man, wholly unfit for aoy post of trust and confidence, and in the highest degree unworthy to sit upon the Supreme Bench of our State.

Edmoxson, Clerk, Seal CENTRE SHOTS FROM THE NATI0N- AL DEMOCEAT. Anxious Enquiries. Where is the Christian Anti-Slavery Conven tion? . Where i Professor Peck and his soecial Provideuces? Where is Giddings with his ne groes to hang all slave owners and slave dealers aspirates? What will they do with the man that sold "Davy" and "Ned" and 'Ras," and the rest of Gholsou's slaves? We know where black "Davy" and black fed" ere, tbey are still in Pontotoc county, Mississippi, where Gholson sold them, but we want to know the other Davy and the other Ned are, politically, jost now the Davy K. Carters and the Edward Wades? Do they go for a slave dealer for Supreme Judge? What Would Joshua do with Gholson? Joshua -R. Giddings, as the commauder-in- chief of the Abolition forces, has given out, in his pronnnciamento and to Ralph Plumb, that the men who follow a negro into a free State to arrest him should be given over to the negroes to be bung as pirates. If such is to be the fate of a man who wishes to bring his slaves back to their old home, what 1 should be the fate of the man who, while pre tending to be an Abo itionist, sold bis slaves to the highest bidder separating, families while thus dealing in "human flesh and blood?" Can Jutihua give us a letter on this subject? Sold for Less than Gholson got for His slaves . Judge Gholson, in his bill of sale of his slaves Davy and Ned, warrants the title and aouudness of the said negro boys! Who will the Judge get to warrant his soundness, after being a slave dealer, i a turning Abolitionist?The general impression is that the Convention that cast aside Judge Swaa and nominated Judge Gholson was sold for a much less price than Gholson got for his slaves; and besides this the Convention, in paying the price, got no "war ranty of soundness1 a did the purchaser of "Davy" and of "Ned." Why he Turned Abolitionist. When J udge Gholson sold bis slaves, negroes were at a low figure prices were declining. He got but $1,460 for two boys, 4,Davyn and Ned." Now tbey would be worth double that amount. Is it not possible that the Judge, believing that he was cheated out of his "chattels," turned Abolitionist to avenge, his wrongs. "Oh! Big Stowe Little Stowe, Harriet and Beeehev," What a fanny sort of man la Gholson for a "screech er.. And Gho'son wants an office now, from either you or I Fox acting- on the principle of "root hog or die." - - " m Good Formi to Follow. We commend the "Bills of Sale", in to-day's paper, to such of our Abolition friends as cboose to follow Gholson's example in buying and selling negroes. They will be found to contain all the usual warrant ot "slave for life," "soundness," Ac. Cannot Mr. Giddings rive us a let. ter on the subject, showing nj their advantage to the "profession?" ' ; Party Acquisitions. ' The Ohio State Journal seems disposed to twit the Democracy with its indebtedness to the old whig party for furnishing it so respectable a mem ber as Mr. Speaker Woooa. The Journal might have added the names of hosts of other gallant men who, year after year, continue to unite tben selves with the Democracy in preference to bold-1 ing membership ia "a contemptible Abolition par-, W But then, the State Journal should rcmenv ber that the Republicans have bad some remark-' able acquisitions from the ctmp of the Democracy. Where for instance, did it get the saltpetre which preserves the purity of the Republican Earty? . To whom is it indebted for iu disereiest der?

Friday last, the 17th inst,, will be long remem bered by the inhabitants of Santa BarbaraJYrom the burniug, blasting heat experienced thst day, and the'effects thereof; indeed, it is said that for the space of thirty years, nothing in comparison has been felt in this county, and, we doubt, in any other. The sun rose like a ball of fire on that dayj but though quite warm no inconvenience was caused thereby until two o'clock in the afternoon, when suddenly a blast of heated air swept through our streets, followed quickly by others, and shortly afterwards the atmosphere became so intensely heated, that no human being could withstand its force all sought their dwellings, and had to shut doors and windows. and rem aui for hours confined to their dwellings. The effects of such intense and unparalleled heat was demonstrated by the death of calves, rabbits, birds, 4c, Ac. The trees were all blasted, and the fruit, such as pears and apples, literally roasted on the trees ere they fell to the ground, and the same as if they bad been 'cast on live coals; but, strange to say, tbey were-enly burned on one side- that it, the direction from whence came the wind. All kinds of metal be came so heated, that for hours nothing of the kind could be touched with the naked hands. The thermometer rose nearly to fever heat in the shade, but near an open door; and during the prevalence of this properly called sirocco, the streets were filled with impenetrable clouds of fine dust, or pulverized clay. Speculation has been rife since to ascertain the cause of such a. terrible phenomenon; but though we have heard of many plausible theories thereon, we have not been fully convinced yet; however, that might be, we see its terrible effects all around us, in blighted trees, ruined gardens, blasted fruit, and almost a general destruction of the vegetable kingdom here. We hope we will never see the like again.--Santa Barbra Gazette. Blondin's Last Exploit at Niagara. : It was a wild, mad feat performed by Mons. Blondin, and the man who backed bim, at Niagara, Wednesday afternoon. It was estimated that there were fully 25,000 spectators present. The Buffalo Republic thus describes the performance: . At about half-past four o'clock, M. Blondin rode into the enclosure on the-American side, and with but a few momenta delay, started across the river. - After going about one-third the length of the rope, he went through sme po3taring, and then, proceeding a few ..feet farther, laid bis pole down on. the rope, with the ends secured by being thrust under the guys, and stood with his head on the pole; passing along a little farther he again stood on bis head; then walking on to where the guys from the Canada side are attached to the rope, be secured his pole by putting the ends under the gojs and binding it to tho rope with his handkerchief, and, returning to the middle of the rope wherw there are no guys, he swung his body below the rope while clinging to the latter with bis hands, and passed his body back and forth between his arms; he then hung by one leg. to the rope, then with both legs; then by one arm; after which he regained his pole, and passed, on, stopping once or twice to repeat the feat of standing on his bead, etc He was received on the Canada side with loud and prolonged cheering, which was replied to by those on the American shore. ' ; - m M. Blondin remained about half an hour on the Canada side before . starting on bis return. In the meantime there was much speculation on the American shore as to the probability of bis attempting to return with a man on his back--Hundreds were willing to wager that be wouldn't; and we learn that considerable money did change hand iu consequence of the exhibition that soon took place; for M. Blondin made his appearance on the rope with a man- e his back! Such aa ! excitement mi was then manifested we never be. fore witnessed. There, was. a rude eoatentioa for the occupancy of places from which the best j view of the rope could be bad. The anxiety to see, on the part of many, wits greater than their sense of decorum) and there were hundreds who could vet but occasional glimpses of the wonder, ful teat that was taking place over that dreadful chasm, .' ' " " . ". ' f " ' - : 1L Blondin proceeded very . slowly .down the descent of the rope, and when be bad gone about one hudred feet, the jman descended from his tack, and stood upon tte rope, at tbe same time holding on to 11. U!ondin, who preserved the Lal-aaca cf both, .. Aflr suppin f w taoaeats, the man again mounted tbo rope-walker's back, and after being carried a short distance farther, again dismounted, but as before, soon got oa gn, when the two continued their perilous journey. If. Blondin several times appeared to stagger, as if the great effort was much for him; and when be was going over the part of the rope where there are no gnra, his manner induced in nearly all an apprehension that be would falL He reached, however, after stopping several times to rest, the American side without accident, and was greeted by the thousands assembled, with long continued and thundering applause. He was entitely exhausted, and unable to speak for some momenta. There waa a great rush op to the rope to see and greet bim; and the two fearless men who had incurred so much hazard to furnish excitement for the multitude, were borne to their carriage upon the shoulders, of few of the more vigorous and enthusiastic. ins gentleman wnom ai. Clonain carried across, is his agent, Mr. Henry Col cord; and who, in allowing himself to be carried across, exhibit ed as much if not more daring than M. Blond himself; for, had there any accident happened Mr. Colcord would have been the most liable to lose his life, as he had less chance of saving himself by catching hold of the rope, We omitted to state in the proper place, that M. Blondin was forty-two minutes in crossing with bis Agent on his back, the first half of the distance having been accomplished in twenty two minutes, and the other half in twenty. It was about half-past six when the numerous as semblage disappeared. " : It ia said that next week Blondin will cross the river, carrying with him a cook stove and utensils, and will, when in the centre of the rope, cook omnlets for the passengers of the Maid of the Mutt lying below him. The Tigers of Singapore. : A traveling correspondent of the New Hamp shire Pairio says: "The island of Singapore lies at the eastern end of the Straits, and is twenty-five miles long by fourteen broad. The meaning of the word Singapore is the Place of Lions, which for long time has been an inappropriate term, since lions have become obsolete, and their place be ing supplied by tigers. A considerable number live in the tall grass and jungle in different part of the island, but the greater part swin over from the peniusula, from which it is separated by strait a mile wide. When pressed by hunger, as they often are, they swim over to the island, and concealing themselves in the grass and thickets, watch the Malays and Chinese when they go to their fields to labor, and springing upon them, strike a single blow on the back of the neck, wnicn proa noes instant deatn by breaking it, It is stated in books and newspapers, and upon in qniry I was told it was true by the most respectable inhabitants that between three and four hundred Chinese and Malays are killed every year by these ferocious monsters. While we were waiting at Singapore the arrival of Mr. Wardour Minister to China, a large tiger was killed, and his body brought into the town for the inspection of the curious. Thongh a large reward is offered by the government of the island for every one taken, whether dead or alive, besides which the skin is worth $50, ao progress nas been made towards exterminating them, or even diminishing tneir number." A Living Head on a Dead Body. Mr. Archibald Campbell, a respectable farmer in the towuship of Camden East, while engaged in finishing a new dwelling on his premises, the scaaold gave way, and he was precipitated head foremost to the ground, and dislocated bis neck. but very fortunately and mysteriously it did not kill bim. When his bead was brought into its position, the vetebrsa of the neck returned to their place with a dull but distinct snap. The whole body is paralyzed and dead from the neck downwards. He is not capable of moving a muscle or experiencing the slightest pain. For tunately the nerves supplying the muscles nsed in respiration were not paralyzed, and be can breathe and live. Had the injury of the spinal cord been a little higher, he would have died lm mediately. The sense ot sight, hearing, smell ing, Ac, are normal, and his intellect is unim paired. - Sir. Campbell has been for a number of years the victim of a series of misfortunes. He formerly resided in the city of Montreal, and was in possession of a fine property. He bore the reputation of the best ship carpenter in this country, and superintended the construction of. the best steamers on the Canadian waters. among wbicn we might mention the steamers Montreal, Quebec, and the old Highlander. He eventually lost his all through the dishonesty of bis partner in business, who left the country be tween two days. Disheartened and discouraged, he found his way to Upper Canada, and settled npon a fcrm in this township. No sooner did be find himself in a comfortable home again, when his only son, a young man of twenty summers, been me insane and was seot to the Asylum at Toronto. But the last misfortune was more intolerable than its predecessors There he lies, a strange and remarkable specimen of a living head on a dead body, with a fall consciousness of bis unenviable position. When last beard frow, however, there was some indication of a return of sensation and the power of motion, and it is lust possible that he miht partially recover. Canada paper. To Clarify Sugar for Preserving. Put into a preserving" pan as many pounds of sugar as you wisb; to each pound of sugar put half a pint of water and the white of an egg to every four pounds; stir it together until the sugar is dissolved; then set it over a fire; stir it occasionally, aud take off the scum as it rises. After a few boihngs-up the sugar will rise so high as to run over the side of the pan; to prevent which take it frons the fire for a &w minutes when it will subside and leave time for skimming. Re peat the skimming until a slight scum of foam only will rise; then takeoff the pan lay a slightly wetted napkin over the ' basin, and then strain the sugar through it.

There was once a little, slim-boilt fellow, rich as a Jew and independent as the devil, riding along a highway in the State of Georgia, when be overtook a man driving a drove of bogs by the help of a big, raw-boned, six-foot-two specimen of humanity. Stepping the last named individual, he accosted him: "I say, are these your hogs?" "No, sir, I am to work by the month." "What pay might you be getting, friend?" "Ten dollars a month and whisky thrown ir," was the reply. "Well, look here, I'm a weak, little, inoffensive man, and people are apt to impose upon me, d'ye see? Now, I'll give you twenty-five dollars a month to ride along with me and protect me," said Mr. Gardner. "Bat," he added, as a thought truck him, ''how might you be on the fight?" 'Never been licked in my life," rejoined the six footer. - "Just the man I want. It's a bargain?" queried Gardner. Six-fooler ruminated.

Dismounting at the door, they went in. Gardner immediately singled out the biggest man in the room, and picked a fuss with him. After considerable promiscuous jawing, Gardner turned to bis fighting friend, and intimated that the licking of that man had become a aad necessity. Six footer peeled, went in, and came out first-best. . The next night, at another hotel, the same scene was re-enacted Gardner getting into a row with the biggest man in the place, and six-footer doing the fighting. At last, on the third day, they came to a ferry kept by a huge, double-fisted man, who had never been licked in his life. Whilst crossing the river, Gardner, as Usual, began to find fault and "blow." The ferryman naturally got mad, threw things around, and told him his opinion of their kind. Gardner then turned to his friend and gently broke the intelligence to bim, "that he was sorry, but that it was absolutely necessary to thrash that ferryman." ' Six-footer nodded hi bead but said nothing. It was plainly to be seen that he did not relish the job, by the way be shrugged bis shoulders, but tlere was no help for it. So when they reach ed the shore, both stripped, and at it they went. Up and down the bank, over the sand, into the water they fought, scratched, gouged, bit, and rolled, till, at the end of an hour, the ferryman gave in. biX-iooter was triumphant, but it had been tough wSrk. Going up to his employer, he scratched his bead ior a moment, and then broke forth: . ". ' "Look here, Mr. Gardner, your salary sets mighty well, but I'm of the opinion that you are inclined to be quarrelsome. Here I've only been with you 'three days, and I've licked the three biggest men in the country I I think this fi rm had better dissolve, for you see, Mr. Card ner, I'm afraid you're inclined to be quar relsome, and I reckon I'll drawl" Tahama Gaz. Speckled Butter. "Don't you want a re'al prime-lot of butter?" asked a pedlar, who had picked it up at fifty dif ferent places. "What sort of butter is ii?" asked the mer chant. "The clear quill made by my wife from a dairy of fifty cows only two churnings." "What makes it of so many colors?" "I guess," said he, "yon never would have ask ed that question if you bad seen my cows, for they are a darned sight apeckelder than the but ter isT . Test of Abolitionism. All is not gold that shines, and the loudest mouthed philanthropists and reformers some times cave in when put to a severe practical test ike the following: "I had a brother-in-law," said Moses Perkins. "who was one of the ravenest, maddest, reddest, hottest abolitionists you ever .saw. I liked the pesky critter well enough, and should have been glad to see bim cum to spend the day, ;tchin' sister to see me and my wife, if be hadn't lowed his tongue to run on so- 'bout niggers and slavery, and the equality of races, and the duty of overthrowing the Constitution of the United States, and a lot of other things, some of which made me mad, and the best part of 'em right sick. I puzzled my brains a good deal to think how I could make him shut up -bis head 'bout AbolitionismWell, one- time, when brolher in law came over to stay, an idea struck me. I hired a nig1 ger to help me at haying time. He was the big gest, strongest, greasiest nigger you ever seed. Black! he was blacker than a stack of cats, and ust as shiny as a new beaver bat. I spok to him: " 'Jack,' says 1, 'when you, bear the breakfast bell ring, don't you aay a word, but come right into the parlor, and dowa among the folks and eat your breakfast. The nigger's eyes stack out of his head about a feet. "'You're joking, uassa, says be. M 'Jokin' sea I, 'I'm sober as a deacon.' 'But, sex he, shan't have time to wash say- self and change my shin.

Gholaon and Elrira hi wife, by which the j convey one negro boy NED to Sarah K. Daggett, aad one npgro boy DAVY to Stephen Daett the vendors ivarranfing the li- Ue and aoundnts of said negro boys. These deeds are duly acknowledged according to the laws of .Mississippi, and. placed on record in the count of Pontotoc, in said State. These sale bills, or deeds, are in the hand-writiog of Judge Gholson himself, and are now in the possession of the editor of the Cleveland National Democrat. This is the way that Judge Gholson man- utniUed his patrimonial slaves. He parted com pan? wiih these two boys for the sum of $1,400 to him in cash paid, and he left them in Mississippi, slaves fur life, while he made his way to Cincinnati with the money in bis pockets. That is what the Hamilton county delegates to the Republican Slate Convention call setting his negroes free, and by which story they completely captur ed Old Giddinggand he gave his orders that Swan must be defeated, Spalding laid aside, and Gholsoo nominated. It is now quite clear that Gbblson cheated Giddings and all the "Saints" at the Republican Convention. He permitted his friends to lie for him, was nominated by bs.se fraud, and for this alone he stands before the people of 'Ohio a disgraced man, wholly unfit for aoy post of trust and confidence, and in the highest degree unworthy to sit upon the Supreme Bench of our State.

Edmoxson, Clerk, Seal CENTRE SHOTS FROM THE NATI0N- AL DEMOCEAT. Anxious Enquiries. Where is the Christian Anti-Slavery Conven tion? . Where i Professor Peck and his soecial Provideuces? Where is Giddings with his ne groes to hang all slave owners and slave dealers aspirates? What will they do with the man that sold "Davy" and "Ned" and 'Ras," and the rest of Gholsou's slaves? We know where black "Davy" and black fed" ere, tbey are still in Pontotoc county, Mississippi, where Gholson sold them, but we want to know the other Davy and the other Ned are, politically, jost now the Davy K. Carters and the Edward Wades? Do they go for a slave dealer for Supreme Judge? What Would Joshua do with Gholson? Joshua -R. Giddings, as the commauder-in- chief of the Abolition forces, has given out, in his pronnnciamento and to Ralph Plumb, that the men who follow a negro into a free State to arrest him should be given over to the negroes to be bung as pirates. If such is to be the fate of a man who wishes to bring his slaves back to their old home, what 1 should be the fate of the man who, while pre tending to be an Abo itionist, sold bis slaves to the highest bidder separating, families while thus dealing in "human flesh and blood?" Can Jutihua give us a letter on this subject? Sold for Less than Gholson got for His slaves . Judge Gholson, in his bill of sale of his slaves Davy and Ned, warrants the title and aouudness of the said negro boys! Who will the Judge get to warrant his soundness, after being a slave dealer, i a turning Abolitionist?The general impression is that the Convention that cast aside Judge Swaa and nominated Judge Gholson was sold for a much less price than Gholson got for his slaves; and besides this the Convention, in paying the price, got no "war ranty of soundness1 a did the purchaser of "Davy" and of "Ned." Why he Turned Abolitionist. When J udge Gholson sold bis slaves, negroes were at a low figure prices were declining. He got but $1,460 for two boys, 4,Davyn and Ned." Now tbey would be worth double that amount. Is it not possible that the Judge, believing that he was cheated out of his "chattels," turned Abolitionist to avenge, his wrongs. "Oh! Big Stowe Little Stowe, Harriet and Beeehev," What a fanny sort of man la Gholson for a "screech er.. And Gho'son wants an office now, from either you or I Fox acting- on the principle of "root hog or die." - - " m Good Formi to Follow. We commend the "Bills of Sale", in to-day's paper, to such of our Abolition friends as cboose to follow Gholson's example in buying and selling negroes. They will be found to contain all the usual warrant ot "slave for life," "soundness," Ac. Cannot Mr. Giddings rive us a let. ter on the subject, showing nj their advantage to the "profession?" ' ; Party Acquisitions. ' The Ohio State Journal seems disposed to twit the Democracy with its indebtedness to the old whig party for furnishing it so respectable a mem ber as Mr. Speaker Woooa. The Journal might have added the names of hosts of other gallant men who, year after year, continue to unite tben selves with the Democracy in preference to bold-1 ing membership ia "a contemptible Abolition par-, W But then, the State Journal should rcmenv ber that the Republicans have bad some remark-' able acquisitions from the ctmp of the Democracy. Where for instance, did it get the saltpetre which preserves the purity of the Republican Earty? . To whom is it indebted for iu disereiest der? Who but spalding harmonises the dis cordact elemenU of their party, and sases'it fxora commotioB? ' To be unmindful of an acquisition such as bis, shows a remarkable lack of grateful appreciation oa the part cf .the Stat Journal, : 0tf Many Tilings that Adam Sllased.

Friday last, the 17th inst,, will be long remem bered by the inhabitants of Santa BarbaraJYrom the burniug, blasting heat experienced thst day, and the'effects thereof; indeed, it is said that for the space of thirty years, nothing in comparison has been felt in this county, and, we doubt, in any other. The sun rose like a ball of fire on that dayj but though quite warm no inconvenience was caused thereby until two o'clock in the afternoon, when suddenly a blast of heated air swept through our streets, followed quickly by others, and shortly afterwards the atmosphere became so intensely heated, that no human being could withstand its force all sought their dwellings, and had to shut doors and windows. and rem aui for hours confined to their dwellings. The effects of such intense and unparalleled heat was demonstrated by the death of calves, rabbits, birds, 4c, Ac. The trees were all blasted, and the fruit, such as pears and apples, literally roasted on the trees ere they fell to the ground, and the same as if they bad been 'cast on live coals; but, strange to say, tbey were-enly burned on one side- that it, the direction from whence came the wind. All kinds of metal be came so heated, that for hours nothing of the kind could be touched with the naked hands. The thermometer rose nearly to fever heat in the shade, but near an open door; and during the prevalence of this properly called sirocco, the streets were filled with impenetrable clouds of fine dust, or pulverized clay. Speculation has been rife since to ascertain the cause of such a. terrible phenomenon; but though we have heard of many plausible theories thereon, we have not been fully convinced yet; however, that might be, we see its terrible effects all around us, in blighted trees, ruined gardens, blasted fruit, and almost a general destruction of the vegetable kingdom here. We hope we will never see the like again.--Santa Barbra Gazette. Blondin's Last Exploit at Niagara. : It was a wild, mad feat performed by Mons. Blondin, and the man who backed bim, at Niagara, Wednesday afternoon. It was estimated that there were fully 25,000 spectators present. The Buffalo Republic thus describes the performance: . At about half-past four o'clock, M. Blondin rode into the enclosure on the-American side, and with but a few momenta delay, started across the river. - After going about one-third the length of the rope, he went through sme po3taring, and then, proceeding a few ..feet farther, laid bis pole down on. the rope, with the ends secured by being thrust under the guys, and stood with his head on the pole; passing along a little farther he again stood on bis head; then walking on to where the guys from the Canada side are attached to the rope, be secured his pole by putting the ends under the gojs and binding it to tho rope with his handkerchief, and, returning to the middle of the rope wherw there are no guys, he swung his body below the rope while clinging to the latter with bis hands, and passed his body back and forth between his arms; he then hung by one leg. to the rope, then with both legs; then by one arm; after which he regained his pole, and passed, on, stopping once or twice to repeat the feat of standing on his bead, etc He was received on the Canada side with loud and prolonged cheering, which was replied to by those on the American shore. ' ; - m M. Blondin remained about half an hour on the Canada side before . starting on bis return. In the meantime there was much speculation on the American shore as to the probability of bis attempting to return with a man on his back--Hundreds were willing to wager that be wouldn't; and we learn that considerable money did change hand iu consequence of the exhibition that soon took place; for M. Blondin made his appearance on the rope with a man- e his back! Such aa ! excitement mi was then manifested we never be. fore witnessed. There, was. a rude eoatentioa for the occupancy of places from which the best j view of the rope could be bad. The anxiety to see, on the part of many, wits greater than their sense of decorum) and there were hundreds who could vet but occasional glimpses of the wonder, ful teat that was taking place over that dreadful chasm, .' ' " " . ". ' f " ' - : 1L Blondin proceeded very . slowly .down the descent of the rope, and when be bad gone about one hudred feet, the jman descended from his tack, and stood upon tte rope, at tbe same time holding on to 11.

Aflr suppin f w taoaeats, the man again mounted tbo rope-walker's back, and after being carried a short distance farther, again dismounted, but as before, soon got oa gn, when the two continued their perilous journey. If. Blondin several times appeared to stagger, as if the great effort was much for him; and when be was going over the part of the rope where there are no gnra, his manner induced in nearly all an apprehension that be would falL He reached, however, after stopping several times to rest, the American side without accident, and was greeted by the thousands assembled, with long continued and thundering applause. He was entitely exhausted, and unable to speak for some momenta. There waa a great rush op to the rope to see and greet bim; and the two fearless men who had incurred so much hazard to furnish excitement for the multitude, were borne to their carriage upon the shoulders, of few of the more vigorous and enthusiastic. ins gentleman wnom ai. Clonain carried across, is his agent, Mr. Henry Col cord; and who, in allowing himself to be carried across, exhibit ed as much if not more daring than M. Blond himself; for, had there any accident happened Mr. Colcord would have been the most liable to lose his life, as he had less chance of saving himself by catching hold of the rope, We omitted to state in the proper place, that M. Blondin was forty-two minutes in crossing with bis Agent on his back, the first half of the distance having been accomplished in twenty two minutes, and the other half in twenty. It was about half-past six when the numerous as semblage disappeared. " : It ia said that next week Blondin will cross the river, carrying with him a cook stove and utensils, and will, when in the centre of the rope, cook omnlets for the passengers of the Maid of the Mutt lying below him. The Tigers of Singapore. : A traveling correspondent of the New Hamp shire Pairio says: "The island of Singapore lies at the eastern end of the Straits, and is twenty-five miles long by fourteen broad. The meaning of the word Singapore is the Place of Lions, which for long time has been an inappropriate term, since lions have become obsolete, and their place be ing supplied by tigers. A considerable number live in the tall grass and jungle in different part of the island, but the greater part swin over from the peniusula, from which it is separated by strait a mile wide. When pressed by hunger, as they often are, they swim over to the island, and concealing themselves in the grass and thickets, watch the Malays and Chinese when they go to their fields to labor, and springing upon them, strike a single blow on the back of the neck, wnicn proa noes instant deatn by breaking it, It is stated in books and newspapers, and upon in qniry I was told it was true by the most respectable inhabitants that between three and four hundred Chinese and Malays are killed every year by these ferocious monsters. While we were waiting at Singapore the arrival of Mr. Wardour Minister to China, a large tiger was killed, and his body brought into the town for the inspection of the curious. Thongh a large reward is offered by the government of the island for every one taken, whether dead or alive, besides which the skin is worth $50, ao progress nas been made towards exterminating them, or even diminishing tneir number." A Living Head on a Dead Body. Mr. Archibald Campbell, a respectable farmer in the towuship of Camden East, while engaged in finishing a new dwelling on his premises, the scaaold gave way, and he was precipitated head foremost to the ground, and dislocated bis neck. but very fortunately and mysteriously it did not kill bim. When his bead was brought into its position, the vetebrsa of the neck returned to their place with a dull but distinct snap. The whole body is paralyzed and dead from the neck downwards. He is not capable of moving a muscle or experiencing the slightest pain. For tunately the nerves supplying the muscles nsed in respiration were not paralyzed, and be can breathe and live. Had the injury of the spinal cord been a little higher, he would have died lm mediately. The sense ot sight, hearing, smell ing, Ac, are normal, and his intellect is unim paired. - Sir. Campbell has been for a number of years the victim of a series of misfortunes. He formerly resided in the city of Montreal, and was in possession of a fine property. He bore the reputation of the best ship carpenter in this country, and superintended the construction of. the best steamers on the Canadian waters. among wbicn we might mention the steamers Montreal, Quebec, and the old Highlander. He eventually lost his all through the dishonesty of bis partner in business, who left the country be tween two days. Disheartened and discouraged, he found his way to Upper Canada, and settled npon a fcrm in this township. No sooner did be find himself in a comfortable home again, when his only son, a young man of twenty summers, been me insane and was seot to the Asylum at Toronto. But the last misfortune was more intolerable than its predecessors There he lies, a strange and remarkable specimen of a living head on a dead body, with a fall consciousness of bis unenviable position. When last beard frow, however, there was some indication of a return of sensation and the power of motion, and it is lust possible that he miht partially recover. Canada paper.

There was once a little, slim-boilt fellow, rich as a Jew and independent as the devil, riding along a highway in the State of Georgia, when be overtook a man driving a drove of bogs by the help of a big, raw-boned, six-foot-two specimen of humanity. Stepping the last named individual, he accosted him: "I say, are these your hogs?" "No, sir, I am to work by the month." "What pay might you be getting, friend?" "Ten dollars a month and whisky thrown ir," was the reply. "Well, look here, I'm a weak, little, inoffensive man, and people are apt to impose upon me, d'ye see? Now, I'll give you twenty-five dollars a month to ride along with me and protect me," said Mr. Gardner. "Bat," he added, as a thought truck him, ''how might you be on the fight?" 'Never been licked in my life," rejoined the six footer. - "Just the man I want. It's a bargain?" queried Gardner. Six-fooler ruminated. Twenty-five dollars-double wages nothing to do but ride around and smash a fellow's mug occasionally when he's sassy, . They rode along till, just at night, they reached a village inn. Dismounting at the door, they went in. Gardner immediately singled out the biggest man in the room, and picked a fuss with him. After considerable promiscuous jawing, Gardner turned to bis fighting friend, and intimated that the licking of that man had become a aad necessity. Six footer peeled, went in, and came out first-best. . The next night, at another hotel, the same scene was re-enacted Gardner getting into a row with the biggest man in the place, and six-footer doing the fighting. At last, on the third day, they came to a ferry kept by a huge, double-fisted man, who had never been licked in his life. Whilst crossing the river, Gardner, as Usual, began to find fault and "blow." The ferryman naturally got mad, threw things around, and told him his opinion of their kind. Gardner then turned to his friend and gently broke the intelligence to bim, "that he was sorry, but that it was absolutely necessary to thrash that ferryman." ' Six-footer nodded hi bead but said nothing. It was plainly to be seen that he did not relish the job, by the way be shrugged bis shoulders, but tlere was no help for it. So when they reach ed the shore, both stripped, and at it they went. Up and down the bank, over the sand, into the water they fought, scratched, gouged, bit, and rolled, till, at the end of an hour, the ferryman gave in. biX-iooter was triumphant, but it had been tough wSrk. Going up to his employer, he scratched his bead ior a moment, and then broke forth: . ". ' "Look here, Mr. Gardner, your salary sets mighty well, but I'm of the opinion that you are inclined to be quarrelsome. Here I've only been with you 'three days, and I've licked the three biggest men in the country I I think this fi rm had better dissolve, for you see, Mr. Card ner, I'm afraid you're inclined to be quar relsome, and I reckon I'll drawl" Tahama Gaz. Speckled Butter. "Don't you want a re'al prime-lot of butter?" asked a pedlar, who had picked it up at fifty dif ferent places. "What sort of butter is ii?" asked the mer chant.

All is not gold that shines, and the loudest mouthed philanthropists and reformers some times cave in when put to a severe practical test ike the following: "I had a brother-in-law," said Moses Perkins.
