ADVANTAGES 01 LINE.—There is a eborch at Oberwyl, Switzeriang, in which the parishioners bave just erected a very tine new organ. A great number recently went to hear it played the first time, and deli¢hted with its deep zrowls and trembling rumblings, they crowded in the gatlery and on the small stair. ease; indeed, so great was the pressure that a young lady of slender form, crushed against the low balastrade, had the misfortune to jose ber equilibrium. and to tumble over into the nave ofthe church. Those in the gallery sbut their eyes and screamed with horror. A few who were below looked Up at hearing the ery, and what was their astonishment to see the lady slowly and quietly descending in the Bidst of an enormous bell-shaped parachute, The tact is, the crinoline was enormous and the lady light, so the inflation of the former Buoyed up the Intter, and the frightened fair one descended on the hard marble pavement as lightly as if she was a bird fluttering down from the lofty roof. OP Miss Saran Betl, an estimable young lauy, residing in the town of New Buffalo, Wiscon: died on Monday morning ander circumstances that seem to leave little donbt but she took her own life. It seems that she purchased some oil of bitter almonds, being warned that it was adeadly poison: retired to ber chamber the night preceding her death, in Ler usual health, and under her pillow was found a note,containing a request that she might be buried as she was dressed. In her dress she had made every preparation for death. = cause for the act, aside from ill health, is nown. a Women’s Ricirrs in VERMONT.—The fol- lowing is an advertisement which we clip from the Rutland Herald : “I forbid any one in the State of Vermont marrying Joseph Trumbly, of Crittenden, ¥t., to Miss Sophia Pelky, ot Brandon.

He afterwards kept on the look out to see if there were two others to come, but none made their appearance. S7 The Freaericksburg Herald says:—The Statement published that no negro labor would be employed in the construction of the Alexan- oria and Fredericksburg Railroad is altogether a mistake. The very reverse will be the tact, as it is expected several thousand will be thus employed. The contract has not been given out, butit is supposed that most of the work will be done by sub-contractors S7 An itinerant quack in Texas was applied te by one of Colonel Hay's rangers to extract the iron part of an Indian arrow from his head where it had Jodged for some time. “I cannot ‘t this, stranger,” said the would-be doc- because to do it would go nigh killin’ ye. but [ can give ye a box’ pilis that will melt itin yer bead.” A Lire URANCE.
