The following extraordinary narrative from a late number of the Cleveland, Unio, Herald, is Lae authority to be literally true. reader will admit that an air of vraisem- lance pervades the narrative, such as 1s sel- dom found in a manufactured story : Some twelve years ago, two young men, named Clyma and Paule, lived in a small vil- lage not far from the sea coast in the extreme west ot England. Both were miners and worked in the same tin mine near (he village. Both paid their addresses to the same maiden, though net with equal success. Clyma prospered so well with his suit that a day was appointed for their nuptiais, and in due course of time the bans of marriage were asked in the village ehurch on the first of the three Sundays pre- seribed by English cannon law. _ Before the second Sunday came round the rivals met at a wrestling match in the village, and it chanced that the turn came for them to wrestle together. Paule was exeited and en- deavored strenuously to give his succesful ri- val in love a “« wicked fall,’ but his eagerness worked bis defeat. He was thrown to the ground amid the shouts of the villagers. On springing to the ground he swore that he would Tevenged, and that Clyma should never marry his intended bride. From that day he took to drinking deeply, and was fierce in bis imprecations on his rival. he day before that fixed for the marriage, Paule told all his friends that he would be at the wedding and would find means to pre- Vent its taking place. Knowing his deter- mined character, Clyma appeared alarmed at the threat, and got some friends to intercede with Paule, but in vain. _ Late that night Clyma left the house of his intended bride for his own cottage, The way lay across a patch of barren moor, where there ewere several open mince shafts, which had been deserted, and the bottoms of whose black depths were now covered with several fathoms of water. About the same hour Paule was seen crossing the same patch of moor from ano- ther direction. A miner. who passed a little later towards the mine where he worked—it being his turn for night work—averred tho next day that he heard a nvise as if of a dis- pute and a senile, but it was too dark to dis- tinguieh any one. he marriage was to take place at eleven o'clock in the morning at the village church. Long before that hour the village was a scene of great excitement. The hat and neckerchief of Paule, the latter torn and bloody, had been Wound near the deepest of the abandoned pit and of Paule himself nothing had been ind, nor had he been seen since he went to- ward the moor on the preceding night. The round where the articles had been found bore traces of a scuffle having taken place. and to crown the whole, two buttons recognised as be- longing to Ciima’s coat, were discovered among the earth and stones. To these ominous facts Clima could only reply that he met Paule at the place mentioned, during the night; that high words were succeeded by a scuifle and that he had beaten Paule, who retired cursing him. This account was not considered satisfactory, and Clima was taken into custody to await fur- ther developments. Several days passed away; an examination was made of the pit and the surrounding local- ity, but no trace could be found of the body. It was argued, however, that if a stone were at- tached to the body before it was thrown into the zit: so as to sink it, there would be no proba- ility of its ever being found. examinations before « magistrate, the accused was released from custody, but only to be shun ned as a murderer by the whole community. In the meantime, the intended bride became sick through excitement; a violent fever was succeeded by a wasting illness. and after lin- gering for some months, she died of a broken heart. These accumulated ills were too much tor the unhappy object of general suspicion, ani in less than twelve months after what should have been his wedding day, he became the iomate of an insane asylum, where he still remains a hopeless maniac. Among the relstives of Clima was a sister, married to a farmer, who, three years after the uuhappy occurrence related above, removed to this country and settled down on a farm in northern [ilinois. A few days since, this sis- ter. while about taking the cars in Chicago for murdered man? Drawing him on one side, she made herself known to Paule, and was immediately recog- nised by him. The explanation given by him of his disap- pearance, was, that he met Ciyma on the event- ful night with the purpose of beating and dis- figuring him so that he could not be married on the succeeding day, but that his rival was more than a match for him. Burning with rage at his discomfiture, he had rushed off, not kuowing or caring what became of himself, and on reaching the branch, had taken an old leaky boat and pulled directly out to sea. Next morning, when the boat was nearly sink ing, he was picked up by an outward bound ship, which took him to New Orleans. Since then, he has resided several years in Califor- nia aod in the United States, has become mod- y rich, and was now on his way to his native home, with which he had maintained no communication since his departure. On learn- ing the sad event which had occurred in the meantime, he immediately accompanied the sister to her home in Illiuois, and after the necessary arrangements were made he started witb her for England, in order to repair as far szible, the mischief which had been done hey passed through Cleveland on their way East, and, happeniug dentaily to meet them at the depot, we learned the sequel to the sad story, with the earlier portion of which we were weil acquainted. They go on a joyful. yet mournful errand. The good name of the unhappy condemned can be reclaimed, but none can restore bis shat- tered ran, or rescue the broken hearted dead from her early grave. —————o Cavour a Tater in Tae Act.

We find the annexed account of Liberia, the African colony, in a letter from Col. J. B. Danforth, a purser in the navy, to his paper in Illinois—the Rock Island Argus. His state- ments differ widely from many accounts that have been published in this country by the Colonization Society; but Col. D. ties been there, and being a shrewd observer, ought to know of what he writes : Monrovia sa much smaller and less inter- esting town than Freetown, and it gives one a very good idea of what the negroes can accom- plish. This is all the town of any importance in the colony of Liberia. It has been petted by the American Colonization Society for forty years, the last nine of which it has been an in- dependent government. The iace of the country around is flat and uninteresting, and the population an idle, lazy, indolent set. A slugg sh stream empties itself into the ogean here, called the Missurado river. Itis not navigable. At its mouth is a large sand bar. over which very small craft can pass at high,tide, and land alongside a pile of rocks they call a wharf. ‘The town is small, and its business smaller. They have streets—that is, an open space be- tween the line of shanties, which are entirely covered with grass, except here and there a path where the negroes cross from one house to another. They have no teams, no horses or mules—not one in town. The president of the republic. S. A. Benson, did have a mule, but 1 died! They say that he has acolt up in the country, and will have a horse when it grows up! Our Consul, John L. Forney, Esq panied me to ‘see the elephant.” visited congress, which is now in session. ‘The senate consists of eight “fust family” niggers, and the house of representatives of eleven! The ex-president, Roberts, is nearly white, and wears a white moustache! The present president, Benson. is a fyll-blooded darkey, as 1s also the vice-president, Gates. I was also introduced to the supreme court! and to the attorney general Payne. They are all colo- nists, 2. ¢,, persons born in the United States, and sent out here by the Colonization Society. They had up u great question in the house of representatives, viz.. the propriety of in- creasing the salaries of the officers, and the speeches were highly amusing. One fellow, who did not seem to be in the secret, had ven- tured to assert that an addition of $50 to the honorable member replied with much spirit, as “Mr. Speaker and Gemmen: De gomman last up says Liberia may broke. Gemmen, ¢ Liberia can't broke—only rich folks broke. Yah! yah!’ (Great ap- They have four colonies, viz: Missurado.

Somebody else observed that it was 1556, and somebody else said what a dreadful thing it would be if a collision should occur, and how particularly dreadtu! if the collision should occur on Gray's Ferry Bridge. A passer-by beard something about a collision on Gray's Ferry Bridge, and repeated the story. It passed from one to another, and spread over town like a conflagration, augmenting in terror a: it spread, till at last we were informed, about half past twoo’clock, that two trains of ears had met on Gray’s Ferry Bridge; that the Bridge broke down, that five cars, crowded with pas. sengers, had gone into the Schuylkill, and that a fearful number of lives were lost—some said fortf-five, others sixty, while others made it one hundred and ten. Other informants said the dead bodies were piled along the road for some distance, while the number of wounded Was enormous. The effects of this frightful story were aston- ishing. Third street, and the newspaper offices, were in instant commotion. Reporters for af- t rnvon papers, who had no time to go to the reene of disaster, rushed hither and thither, consulting and inquiring of everybody, while a number belonging to aes papers depart- el instantaneously to Gray's Ferry, to get the full particulars, with names of the killed and wounded and the harrowing details of this un- precedented calamity. The Southwestern part of the town was in great excitement, and car- riages and omnibuses went crowded with people, eager to offer assistance or to ascertian if their children or friends were among the victims. How to Keer ove Houses Coo. —The Scientific American gives the following direc- tions for the securing of cool houses in warm weather : ‘The first necessity is a thorough draft. This can always be obtained by opening every door and window in the basement, the top of every window above, and by throwing each door wide open; but above ull be sure that the trap door in the roof is open, and there is plenty of air room from it dowa the stairs, so that whichever direction be the wind, there will at least be one ascending current of airinthe bouse. Another requisite is shade. Our common slat shutters answer well for the windows, but the most cheap and convenient shelter for the roof is to cover it thickly with straw, dried leaves or rushes. These will resist the influences of a noon day sun, and keep the garret almost as cool as the basement. One of the most simple methods, and at the same time cheapest means, of low- ering the temperature of a room, is to wet a cloth of any size, the larger the better, and sus- pen@ it inthe place you want cooled; let the room be well ventilated, and the temperature will sink from ten te twenty degrees in less than an hour. The above hints will be useful to many; and, as a last suggestion, we will in- form the reader that, in summer it is well to keep a solution of chloride of lime in the house and occasionally sprinkle it in the more fre- quented parts, as the passage and stairs. s List or Patents.—The following is the list of Patents issued from the United States Patent Office, for the week ending June 29, 1858—each bearing that date: H.O.
