The Natick, Mass., correspondent of the New York Herald says - The strikers’ movement is progressing so uietly here that astranger would scarcely sup- yose that upwards of seven hundred live shoe- wskersareidle. So orderly have the strikers ved that not a single arrest for drunken- t disorderly conduct has been made since strike commenced, three weeks ago. The rs are prudent and judicious men, and measure adopted to attain the objects he strike are dictated by the most pruden- tial considerations. Although the strike has d for three weeks, less than a dozen have applied to the Relief Committee sid, and the sum of thirty dollars, it is stated, will cover all the expenditures for re- lief thus far. About six hundred dollars have been subscribed to sustain the strike, one hup- dred dollars of which were sent from the asso- ciation in Milford. Those who apply for as- sistanee are furnished provisions, &c.—not money. Real estate owners have pledged themselves alt the aid they need to sustain the movement. A majority of the strikers are unmarried man. Some of them are in com- tortable circumstances, having a thousand slullars or so on hand, but others are very poor. At the wages they have been getting for some time past it is surprising that laany of them have not starved to death before this. Politics do not enter into the strike in any chape—all parties being combined together to effect the grand object. ‘The whole number of males engaged in this town is about eight hundred. The females coly number about twenty, and are employed ou stitching machines. Formerly the number of females equalled that of the males, but the introduction uf machinery threw nearly all of the former out of employment. Many of these females are sow engaged in making straw hats and bonnets, that business being carried on extensively in the adjoining town of Fra- mingba' Others have taken to house work, &e. Some of the manufacturers have already agreed to the new scale of prices, and work is guibg on as usual, so far as they are concerned. These firms are C. & G. Davis, Sanders Bros., ani N. Bartlett. It is stated that all the manufacturers ars willing to accede to the new scale, provided the strikers will not put them to the humiliation of conferring with % committee of the strikers. Abolish your | emmmittee, say the manufacturers, and we will yield Abolish our committee, reply the strikers, and we shall be again at the mercy of the bosses, with no guarantee that thei promises will be‘kept. Thus the matter stands, so far as Natick is concerned Although quiet and orderly, the strikers are uevertheless vigilant. Szventeen cases of stock sent upinto New Hampshire by Moody Brothers to be manufactured there, have been revurned to Natick. And Messrs. Walcott, Forbush & Childs, of this town, having made arrangements with J. S Woodbury, in Sutton, Maes., for the manufacture of twenty-five cases per week, are likely to have theif arrange- ments quietly interfered with and defeated by the vigilance of the Natick strikers. The same will probably be the case with most of the work sent out of town. it has been said that the Rev. Mr. Babcock, a Unitarian clergyman, was turned out of his pulpit in South Natick on account of his sym- pathy with the strikers. This is not altogether s. Mr. Babecek is an abolitionist of the Gar- risouian school, a John Brown sympathiser, -<c., and his teachings have been so distasteful even Kepublican shoe. manufacturers in Natick, that his removal was determined upon long before last Sabbath On that occasion he had given out that he would address the strikers from the pulpit. The church was closed, but did not long remain so. Mr. Bab- cock preached in the forenoon, and in the af- ternoon Wm. Lloyd Garrison held forth in the same pulpit on the subject of “Conscience,” and in the evening on the subject of slavery. -— -+w0e- The Washington ment A STONE FROM NAPOLEON'S Toxs. [From the Paris Moniteur de Armee. Advices from the Istand of St. Helena men- tion an incident of considerable interest. It is known that the Americans are erecting at the capital of the Republic a national monu- ment to the illustrious Washington. The com- mittee appointed to raise funds for its comple- tion having oe to the Emperor for a stone from the tomb of Napoleon I. at St. Helena, his Majesty promptly complied with their re- west, and caused to be transmitted from the epertment of Foreign Affairs the necessary instructions to the representative of the French Government at Longwood. Ta accord ice with these instructions, on the 24th of December Messrs Gauthier de Rouge- mont, chief of the squadron of cavalry which guards the habitation and tomb of the Empe- ror Napoleon I.; N. Salomon. Acting Vice- +. W. Kin Consul of France at St. Helena; ball. Consul of the United States it the same pluce; Capt. E. F. Masselin, Director of Engi- neers, ind J. C. Mareschel, of the same corps, quet at the place called the Vale of Napoleon, for the purpose of making the official transfer of this memento. The gentlemen descended together into the cave, still uuclosed, which contained the Em- peror’s coflin, and Capt. Masselin detached the stone, whi ill be sent to America. M. G. de Rougem then addressed the Consul of the United States in a speech in which he ex- pressed the pleasure it gave him to have been chosen to make, in the name of the Emperor, the transfer of this simple stone, destined to show to all who visit the monument in which it will be placed, that France preserves always to the United States the same sentiments as at the epech in which Washington conquered his immortal place in history Mr. Kimball replied, that he was filled with rofyund re; ard Tor his Majesty the Emperor Napoleon IIT, and that this venerated relic, which recalled the immortal memory of the first Emperor,would figure in the monumental column erected to the memory of one of the iost illustrious and virtuous men whom God had sent on earth—to the memory of Washing ton, the friend of France. He added, that he thankei the Emperor, in the name of the So- ciety which was erecting the monument, and in the name of the whole people of the United States. After this touching ceremony, the precious relic was placed in acase, prepared before- hand, and this case, sealed with the Imperial arms, Was sent to the American Government.

THE GHOST OF A BENEDICTINE MONK APPEARS TO A NOVICE—TIDINGS PROM PURGATORY. [From the Pittsburgh Dispatch} We alluded recently to a current report that the apparition of a Priest had appeared to the ving at Latrobe; and we Present below a de- tailed account of this Supernatural phenome- non. in which the exaggerations of the current rumors are corrected, and the reality of the |ppearance affirmed. After all, there is noth- ing more marvelous in this than in the stories related in “Mrs. Crow's Night Side of Nature” and Owen’s ‘ Footfalls on the Boundaries of Another Werld.”* while it is better authentica- ted than half of the narratives admitted into those volumes of the supermundane. Those, therefore, who are ready to subscribe to the truth of the narrations given by Owen—who, himself, has come to believe in an intesmedi- ate state of progression—will be sadly puzzled upon what grounds to discard the Benedictine Monk of St. Vincent's Abbey, as an illusion. The following is the communication of the worthy Abbot: Epitors Dispatca—Dear Strs:—A friend of mine handed mea copy of the Dispatch of the 25th instant, drawing my attention to a ‘Queer Story,”’ telling that recently, while “*Mass”* was being celebrated in Latrobe, the spirit of some priest or saint appeared and communicated the information to the assembly that it was alla misapprehension about ‘Pur- gatory,’’ no such place of intermediate state of probation roten S and worse than all, that ut two priests ha Heaven. The truth is, that at St. Vincent's Abbey, near Latrobe, a Novice saw, from the ISth Sept. until the 19th Noy., 1859, every day, from eleven to twelve o’clock, a. m., or from twelve to two o’clock in the night, the appa- tition of a Benedictine Monk in his full festival dress. After all, he axked him, in the pres- ence of another member of the order, what he wanted. The spirit then answered that he had been suffering Seventy-seven years already, because he had not said seven Masses of obli- fation: that he had appeared to seven other enedictines, at different times, and had not been heard; and that he would have to appear after eleven years again, if he would not help him. He wanted them seven Masses said for him, besides this the Novice should, for seven days, observe the strictest silence and retreat; and more, he should say for thirty-three days, each day three times, the “Fiftiath Psalm?? barefooted and his arms stretched out. This was done from the 2ist November till the 25th December, when the last Mass was celebrated, and the ghost disappeared. Durin this time he had appeared several times again, exhorted the Novice most impressively, to pray for the Souls in Purgatory, since they suffer very hard, and consequently are very thank- ful to those who concur to their redemption; and, sad enough. said that of the five Priests who had already died at the Abbe: > BO one was yet in Heaven, but suffering in ‘urgatory. This is in substence the facts that gave origin to your strange report; we give it as much credit as it deserves; but this report is correct. B. Wixer, Abbot. St. Vincent's Abbey, 26th Feb., 1860. —— re tay°The “experience’’ of Prof. Agassiz, men tioned by us recently, is thus related in the Spiritual Magazine: “Agassiz had been deeply cogitating on a fossil which had been recently discovered. having new and remarkable peculiarities. It was apparently the connecting link between vertebrate and the lower animals, as the mud- fish from Africa, exhibited in the Crystal Pal- ace, is the connecting link between fishes and reptiles; but what was most mortifying and passin to him was that the very part of the ‘ossil which should have showed the most inter- esting part was covered with the strong deposit in which it had been embedded. While pon- dering the subject in bed, he fell asleep, and in a dream he was delighted to have the whole hidden part, and all its mechanism and differ- ences, clearly displayed before his eyes, and, besides, to see intuitively the exact place which it filled in comparative anatomy. Tle awoke in the morning with the subject fresh in his mind; but, alas, no sooner did he try to recall it than the whole of what he had scen had vanished from his memory, and all he could remember was that he had seen it in its most satisfactory extent. The next night, again thinking deeply of it, he fell asleep, and the whole 2cene was again presented before his mind. He deter- mined to try to remember it, and to make an effort to awake; but he still slept on, and in the morning had again forgotten all that he had desired to remember. He determined, if he should ever dream of it again, that he would make the strongest effort to awaken, and have paper on the bedside on which to fix the infor- mation. Accordingly, on going to bed. ho placed some paper and a pencil beside him, again thinking of his wonderfal fossil, when what was his delight, during his sleep, at find- ing the whole, fora third time, clearly pictured before him. Now, then, to awaken and transfer it to the paper! But no; he still slept on, and in the morning was distressed beyond measure to find that the whole had entirely vanished from his memory. In this disconsolate state he commenced to dress, but had not proceeded far when his eyes fell on the paper and pencil by his bedside, and, going to them, he was aston- ished to find upon the paper an accurate draw- ing of the complete fossil. with all its parts. It was, in fact, the picture of his vision, and gave him again all be had seen in his sleep. ie tells this himself, and says that he cannot account for the picture being there—whether he got up and did it himself, or whether it was done by other means with which our readers who are acquainted with direct spirit-writing are familiar. Having secured the drawing, the rofessor compared it with the fossil, and, as Bis curiosity was now largely excited, he ven- tured on endeavoring to uncover that part of it which was concealed under the stony eposite. Applying a fine chisel to the part, he was for- tanate enough to remove the covering, and there was displayed before his eyes the exact counterpartof his picture,and his three dreams. If he were not a professor, we think he might. after such a fact, believe in spiritual laws and energies, and in himself.’’ —_-o+e-___ A Serious Cuarce or McrpeR—A Son Ac- cuses His Faraer ov tar Deep.—The citi- zens of Salem have been considerably started by the arrest and confinement in their jail of a man charged with the crime of murder by his own son. The facts,as we gather them, are ially as follows: eight years since, a German pedler, last heard of in the vicinity of Hampton Gate, in the pines of Sate doe county, about fifteen miles from Mount Holly, suddenly disappeared, and was never seen or heard of afterward. The disappearance caused considerable excite- ment at the time, but no clue to the mystery could be obtained, and the matter was finally forgotten. Suspicion at first did, indeed, in some degree, point to the man who has now been arrested, and who lived in the neighbor- hood at the time, but nothing was done, and he afterwards removed, no one seemed to know where. This man’s name is George Palmer; and his son, a lad about fourteen years of age —rather young at the time of the alleged mur- der—says that the family have lived at various places within his recollection, but that he thinks it was about eight Pee that they lived at Hampton Gate. There, one day, asa ler approached the house in a wagon. his ‘ather shot him dead, buried his body in the woods, burned the w: in acoal pit, and buried most ofthe goods near the house where he lived; that he sold the horses, and that he —the boy—could show — a the places where the body was buried, the wagon burned, and the goods buried, if taken to Hampton G ate. Itis said that there is other testimony going toshow that the accused has changed his name, and other facts corroborating the boy’s testi- mony.— Trenton (N. J.) Democrat. ver, XV. WASHINGTON, D.
