sleep, feeling confident that her husband
was in faithful keeping, and, that she could
safely trust him while she slept. _
Day after day of a lingering fever, did
~ '1
"‘._call and administer to the comforts of her
hnsband; and night after night, did one
or A-moreswatch by his bed, and all was
done in such a kind and unobtrusive inan-
-ner, that it completely won Ellen’s heart;
and she confessed to the Dr. all her for-
mer prejudice :to the Order; and that it
was her ‘opposition, that caused her hus-
band to neglect his Lodge.
’ ‘‘'Well, well,” the Dr.;w-ould say, fl‘ you
“must now make amends, and become the
I “dd Fellows‘ champion, and make cott-
verts of these foolish women. The)‘ will
.~ill beeome Odd Fellows, or Odd Fellows’
-.'n‘:ites, by and-by.”
Henry at last recovered; and the day
he first left his room, Dr. Evelyn came in
and said, “I have come to give you a lit-
tle ride,_ but first I wish you to examine
' this package, while I chat 'a little with
your wife.” D
l‘he first paper Henry opened, was it
letter and a card from his own Lodge, re-
instating him‘ a member; which has been
procurred through the influence of. Dr.
Evelyn ; x the next was a receipted bill of
their landlord, and the last. a check of
five hundred dollars, a loan from several
of the brothers who.had so kindly attend-
ed him through his sickness.
Mr. Ashley was completely overcome
‘and grasping the Dr.’s hand, he in vain
made an_efiort to speak.
“Come, come,” said the DI‘., “ pot on
your hat and cloak and come and take a
i'ide with me, l want to talk with you a
little.” The Dr. then told liirri of a plan
which his friends had formed for him; it
was for him to embrace a favorable open-
ing there then was, to enter a profitable
business. This is a flourishing little town,
I have no doubt you will be successful.
It is unnecessary to add, that Mr. Ash-
ley eagerly embraced such a favorable
opportunity, and that he again became an
active’ Odd Fellow, and that Ellen now
acknowledged herself convinced of the
good effects of Odd Fellowship. and be-
came a zealous advocate and defender of
the Order. “ And now, ladies, how do
you like my story I” inquired Mrs. Ham-
mond.
“It sounds very much like several fic-
titious stories that I have read,” replied
i\’lrs. Minor. “if I knew it was really true,
1 might perhaps change my opinion some
what.”
“ VVell, I will votich for the truth of it
all, except the names, for I have told you
the story as my friend has often told it to
me. Mrs. Ashley must now speak for
herself. Mrs. Ashley, ladies, alias Mrs.
ltanton.”
All turned to Mrs. Danton, in surprise,
who confessed herself the heroine of the
story, and assured them ofits truth ; “ and
you will not wonder now at my warm de-
fence of Odd F€ll’)WSl'llp. I have, I hope,
atoned in some measure for my past in-
justice to the Order, and opposition to my
htishand’s feelings; and now what say
you ladies, to your husbands’ becoming

“ Mine shall be one,” exclaimed several
voices at once, “if I have any influence
ovei' him.”
It is unnecessary to add that the Hour-
ishintz little Lodge in M , received
several new names as applicants for mem-
her.-‘hip; and I have since he -rd that the
wives of these new members make it their

plit.-uomenon was brought to light a week
-220 \'esterd:iy, in the townshipof Green-
field -.\’Iicl. about’-teight miles from this
city. The Messrs. Grangers, in boring
to find water to supply their saw mill,
stink a foi_ir inches hole to the depth of

cavity. As they withdrew the ‘auger
from the hole, to their great surprise, it
was followed by a violent current of air,
that. threw up stories as large as hen’s
eggs, ten or fifteen feet high.
For a few moments, whe-i the hole was
_first opened, the air was accompanied by
a stream of water, which was thrown ten
or twelve feet high. The water, however
soon ceased coming and the air gushed
out with such force that the roar could be
distinctly heard fifty or sixty rods distant.
On touching fire to the air, it caught, and
the flames fiiished twenty feet high, and
came near burning the building, covering
the iuachiriery in which it is located.
They finally succeeded with considera-

down blankets, and driving a spile into the

At the opening of the General Assembly,
I had occasion to congratulate you upon
the happy auspices under which you were
permitted to commence your labors, and
especially upon the prospect that peace
was soon to return to us with its
blessings.
The hopes then indulged, as you well
know, have since been realized, and our
nation is now at peace with all the nations
of the earth, and is left to the pursuit of
those avocations, of those arts, to the
proseciition of those works of internal
itnprovement, and to build tip and estab-
lish those institutions of learning, which
are appropriate to a state of peace, and
which constitute the true greatness and
glory of a nation, and to the a(‘.(:0mpli9h-
tnent of those purposes. gentlemen, your
attention has been directed during this
protracted and arduous session. It has
been one of unusual interest. Subjects
of grave import, with which the highest
and best interest of our country areiiden.
tified, have been before you for decision,
upon which you have been called to pass.
The revision of the public acts ° the
foundations laid by you for those fm-iilities
for intercotnrntinication between diflerent
sections of the State, and between this and
neighboring States; your legislation in
regard to the subject of evidence, provi-
ding new sources of proof before judicial
tribunals in the administration of justice
between mart and ‘man; the encourage-
ment and promotion of intelligence by
means of common schools—arc subjects of
deep and abiding interest to this country.
The results, gentlemen, of your labors are
now before the people of the comrnori-
wealth, and are to be judged of by them.
May we not indulge the hope that an en-
lightened constituency will find much to
a rove and little to censure.
pI)t mtist be a subject of gratification to
you as you are about to part, that your
deliberations during the session have been
cliaracterized by an unusual degree of
harmon , and that the session has been
signallyy exempt from the influence of
party violence and party recrimination.—
You will permit me, in atljourning this
General Assembly, to express my regard
for you personally, and also my most sin-
cere wishes for your contintied prosperity

.flcc2'r}rnt and llfomleiful Preservatzon of
Lifc.—An unusual and perilous accident
occtirrd in Federal street, between nine
and ten o’cloclt Saturday morning. In
the third story of the granite from stores
of the “Dearborn Block,” built by Gerrish,
and occiipied by Waterston, Pray 8: Co.
and Dtitton, Richardson dz Co, the floor
was heard stiddenly to crack, and iii a
minute or two afterwards to partially give
way through to the cellar, precipitating
the goods in _every direction and causin,-.5
a damage to an amount estimated at sev-
,eral thotisand dollars. The accident was
xcaused, as near as can be ascertained,
from the giving way of two brick pillars,
built for the support of the building, in
the cellar, by which the iron posts in. the
rooms above were forced through the
I
llgiV€‘Slfloors, and the floors themselves broken
lthrough to the extent of several feet.—
But the most remarkable part of the affair
is the escape of the inmates. It is esti-
mated that there were at least thirty per-
sons in the stores at the time. Fortu-
nately the crac_king of the timbers gave a
partial warningiland enabled them to get
out of the ~w'ay“.of the falling goods. Soiriei

it is from TI. letterdated “San Angel, Mexico,

Next let me tell you how Senator Cass
was treated by the volunteers. You will
-recollect that we, (or the volunteers,)
were mustered under the act of May, ’46
by which we were allowed $3 60 per
month for clothing, and in a circular da-
ted August 7t.h ’47, we were again assured.
of receiving the same. Butgit seems that
Mr. Cass, with a good economical heart,
offered a bill to cause the volunteers to
be furnished with clothing in kind, at the
same rates according to grades, as is pro-
vided for the troops of the regular army.
Thus you see has reduced our pay for
clothing frotn 3 50 to $52 50. This, I
suppose, is the compensation we get for
fighting otir way to tliv Capital. As soon

Case of flbducrz'on.—A case of abdtic—
tion has lately occurred in this City under
the following circumstances. It appears
that a poor but very respectable family
have an only daughter, whom it was their
intention to bring up in a strictly virtuous
manner. Necessity required that she
should find some triad of employment, and
a short time since a plain looking girl
came to the house and asked the mother
if she did not wish to obtain a situation
for her, at the same time stating time and
place. The mother, not suspecting any
wrong. gladly accepted the offer, and im-
mediately despatchetl her daughter with
the girl. In the evening the fatlicr came
home and im-iiediately asked for his daugh-
ter, when his wife informed him that she
had found a place. He replied that it was
not so, for that a friend had told him that
his daughter was seen crossing the river
with a female dressed in gaudy apparel,
and of notoriously bad character. Upon
inquiry they found that their daughter llfltl
not obtained the situation as alledged, but
that a story had been framed to entice
her into a house of assigriation in New
York. The distracted gpart-nts have not
as yet been able to obtain any clue to her
whereabouts.-Tribune.
Dreoc/fill flccitlenl.-Yesterday a deaf
and dumb mart about 30 years of age,
whose name is unknown, met with a
dreadful accident on the Columbia rail-
road, about two miles from l-‘aoli. He
was walking on the track toward the city,
when the train of cars approached, and
from his deafness, the engineer giving the
alarm for some time, he was struck by the
locomotive, knocked down, and the whole
train passed over his arm, cutting it
entirely ofi at the elbow. One of his
legs was also fractured. He was brought
to the Pennsylvania hospital about 4-
o’clock,and was forced to undergo anoth-
er amputation of the arm at the shotilder.
