ANECDOTE OF JUDGE KEYS. Elias Keys, in his old age, was a Judge of Windsor county, Vermont. He was a Htraogo composition of ioiiy and good Rense, of natural shrewdness and want ol cultivation, but honest humane, to the core. A poor ragged fellow was once brought before him and clearly convicted of haying stolen a pair of boots from General Curtis, a wealthy man of the town of Windsor, on which occasion old Keys pronounced sentence as follows: "Well, ycu are a fine fellow to be arraigned before a court for stealing. They pay you are poor. No one doubts it who looks at you. And how dare you, being poor, have the impudence to steal a pair of boots? Nobody but rich men have a right to thing3 for which they do not pay. And they say you are worthless. That is evident from the fact that nobody has iiskcd justice to be done you all by unanimous consent, pronounced yon guilty before you were tried. Now, you being worthless, was a fool to steal, because you might have known you would be condemned. And you must know that it was a great aggravation to your offense that you stole them in the large town of Windsor. And not only go into that large and important town to commit such a horrible act, but you must steal from that great man, General Curtis 1 This caps the climax of your iniquity. Base wretch! why did you net go and steal the only pair of boots some poor man had, or could get? You might then have been let alone. The great town would not then have been convulsed. For your iniquity in stealing in the great town of Windsor, and from the great General Curtis, the court sentences you to three months' imprisonment in the county jail. And may God take care of you beyond that!"

BKIDES.

A correspondent at Vienna writes:—"I always calculate the number of strangers by the number of brides which cross one's path. Your female readers will ask how I know a bride when 1 see one. But I reply, my dear ladies, I can tell in an instant—and, so to gay, with half an eye —any traveling 'young married woman.' I have no need to look at the luggage, which is new nor at the husband, who looks as if he is not quite sure that he has not been hasty nor even at the dress. No. A bride walks into a room as a thing apart. Brides are divided into two classes—the serious and the smiling. The first enters with a queenly step, and seems to say, 'Don't look at me. Don't you see I'm married, and that those days are over?' The other comes up smiling, as much as to say, 'I've landed him. Js it not good fun?'

The large, heavy fringes of hair which depend from the sides and lower parts of the body, and the thick, silken tufts of his bushy tail, are valuable a9 articles of commerce, and constitute one of the staple fancies which decorate the wardrobe of our fashionable belles. It is dyed into all sorts of brilliant colors, and is extensively used to decorate the caps of state of the mast distinguished Chineese and Japaneese. The tail of the Yak, when highly colored, is also carried before the ofiiccrs of slate in their anniversary pageants—the number used being indicative of rank. As a beast of burden, the Yak is not considered success among the natives, and for many years has been partially abandoned on lhat account. If too heavy a burden is imposed on him the animal manifests it* displeasure by a loud, monotonia, melancholy grunting, painful to hear, and lugubrious in its appeals for pity to his hearties* persecutors. The advance of a Christian civilin/Htinn will atl'ord a lasting relief to this interesting creature, whose silken tufts will be mere valued as objects of commerce than its unwilling and inutilitarmi service as a beast of burden.

The specimen now on exhibition in Harnum's groat show, was procured for Mr. Barnum by one of his indefatigable ngfiits in Asia, but unlike most of his kind, appears without horns. This circumstance, however, does not detract, but rather adds interest to the animal, as it illustrates a principle common to all the bovine species.

WIN01NG Ul' TilK CLOCKS. One of our economic Ministers (says a cotemporary 1 recently arrived on his mission at a public department a few seconds after the nominal hour for the commencement of business, enteied the lir.-t room in a Ions passage, -nd there beheld wi'll-drtssed youth, who, with his back to the lire, was calmly periling a morning paper. "Alone?" inquired the Minister. "Ya-:n," replied the sole tenant of the office. "Not much to do, I suppose? Plenty of time to read the papers, 1 see." "Ya-as, plenty. I can always do my work here in twenty minutes." "Oh,you can, can you? Has Mr. come?" "1 believe not," replied the newspaper student. "Which is his room, may I a3k?" pursued the Minister. "Last on the right, along the passage," answered the youth.

Thither the Minister repaired, and when the head of the department arrived, the latter was, after the first greetings, informed that it waa clear there was ample room for a reduction of the clerky stafl. The departmental head protested that he really had not men enough to get through with the work. "Oh," quoth the economist, "I know better than that. Why, not ten minutes yo, one of them told me he had plenty of time to read the papers, and could get through his work here in twenty minutes." The under-secretary protested that no clerk in the place could say so truly. "Then come and see him," said the Minister. As they went along the passage. they met the youth in question. "Did you not tell me, sir, demanded the right honorable gentleman, "that you had plenty of time to read the papers?" "I did," was the reply. "And that you could do all the work in twenty minutes?" "Yes." "There," said the Minister triumphantly, "it is clear your staff mu6t be reduced Mr. "But," etammered the head of the department, "I do not know this gentleman, he is not a clerk here I" "Clerk here!" replied the youth, in an injured tone I should think not, indeed I come once a week in the morn* inga to wind and regulate the clocks!" And he

btalked

The

man who had contributed

a bundle of cast-off clothing for the relief of the victims of the Minnesota fire, received from one of the sufferers the following note: "The committy man give me, amongst other things, wat he called a pare of pants, and 'twood make me pant some to wear 'em. I found your name an' where you live on one of the pockets. My wife lafTed so wen I abode 'em to her that I thot she would have a connipshun fit. She wants to no if there lives and brethes man who has legs no bigger than that. She said if there was heort to be taken up for vagrinsy, for bavin' no visible means of support. I couldn't get 'ein on mp oldest boy, so I used 'em for gun cases. If you hav another pare to spare, my wife wood likg to gel 'em to hang up by the side of the fireplace to put the tongs in."

THE YAK.

The Aasiatic Yak is a rare and inter csting specimen of the bovine race, and is so called by the natives of the mountainous regions of Thibet, as its name implies pticpluiijux grunniens, or grunting ox.

The ancient Hebrews named every animal by the onomatopoeia process, that is, from the noise it makes. The Germans, too, have imitated the ancients very largely in this respect. Adam must have understood tiie onomatopwian process thoroughly, for, after the creation y^lien, "Every beast of the field, and fowl of the air," were brought lefore him to be named, wo learn that "whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof." On this principle Varro deduces his latin name, ursus, a bear, from its growling propensities. The Yak is found among the highest plateaus of the Tbibitian mountains, ranging between the Altai and Himalias. It is easily d.omesticated, and among the Chinese often made to subserve the purposes of a ruffe husbandry. It is a large, handsome animal, with a high head und a proud look, challenging the admiration of all who behold him.

Crawfordsville Journal publishes

a communication from I*. S.

Kehnedy

Esq., relative to the defects of our judicial system and the tardy administration of justice. Mr.

Kennedy

suggests the

following reform: 1. Abolish the Court of Common I'leas entirely, transfer the probate buijincs-", wtere no question? aie involved, to ibe clerk, and make him responsible on his official boF.d, for all damages that may result to anyone from his failure to attend properly to the business. 2. Divide the State into Circuits of from one to three counties, according to population, and let there be a term of the Court each month in the several counties. Let the Grand Jury be summoned as the Judge.may order. Let a petit ju-y be selected by the County Board to serve for one year, to be summoned only on the or der of a party desiring a jury trial, after the issues are closed and the case is ready for trial the defeated party to pay the ccst of summoning the jury. Let applications for appeals to the Supreme Court be referred, at"stated periods, to three Circuit Judges, including the ones before whom the cases were tried, and let the majority of such Judges determine whether or not an appeal shall be granted.

SERIOUS RAILROAD ACCIDENT.

SEVEN KILLED AND SEVEN WOUNDED.

REEKI1BIER,

WllITE Sol.PHUR SPR'GP,

Va.,

July

11.—A

serious accident

occurred this morning on the railroad one hundred miles from here. As a construction train was passing over the second crowing of Greenbrier river, a temporary bridge gave way, precipitating the train into the river and completely wrecking the engine and two material cars. The engineer, named Hill, and fireman, named Upshaw, were instantly killed, and four laborers were killed and five wounded. The accident occurred on that portion of the road west of this place, in course of conatruction'towardsthe Ohio river, and not open to the travelling public.

Later.—Seven

persons were killed by

the railroad accident this

and seven

severely wounded, some of whom will probably die. Those killed and wounded were colored with the exception of the. engineer, fireman, conductor, and Mr. Meyers, a citizen of this place.

HORRIBLE CASUALTY IN MADISON.

Madison,Ind.,

July

11.—About

seven

o'clock this morning, an explosion of gas occurred in a cellar attached to Conway's Cottage saloon, on Second street. A colored man named Elias Wallace, employed in tiie saloon, started to enter the cellar for some purpose, carrying a lighted lamp. No sooner did gas come in contact with the lamp, than an explosion took. |ilace. Wallace was burned in a most horrible manner. His head is literally destitute of hair, while Bhoulders, arms and bands are one immense blister. Bertha Johnson, a colored child fourteen months old, was setting on the floor of the room immediately above the cellar where the explosion occurred. She was so badly injured that she has since died. The floor was torn up and the building otherwise damaged by the shock.

The Democrats of this city fired a hundred guns last night .in honor of the iesult of the Baltimore Convention.

HIRING A CLERK.

The following is not a new storv, but it is a true one, and will bear repeatiig we think:

Years ago, into a wholesale grocery store in Boston walked a tall musctilailooking, raw-boned man, evidently a fresh comer from some back town in Maine or New Hampshire. Accosting the first person he met, who happened to be the merchant himself, he asked: 'You don't want to hire a man in your store, do you?" "Well," said the merchant, "I dou't know what can you do?" "Do?" said the man "I rather guess I can turn my hand to almost anything What do yon want done?"

Well—if I was to hire a man, it would be one that could lift well, a "slrong wiry fellow one, for instance, that could shoulder a sack of coffee like that yonder, and carry it across the store and never lay it down." 'There now, captain,"said the countryman, "that's just me. I can lift anything I hitch to you can't set me. What will yon give a man that can suit you?'' "I tell you," said the merchant, "if you will shoulder thatsack of coffee and carry it across the store twice ar.d never lay it down, 1 will hire you for a year at $100 per month." "Done," said ihe stranger and by this time every clerk in the store had gathered around, and were waiting to join in the laugh against the man, who, walking up to the sack, threw it across his shoulder with perfect ease, as it was not ex tremely heavy, and walking with it twice across the store, went quietly to a large hook which was fastened to the wall, and hanging tiie sack upon it, turned to the merchant and said: "'There now, it may hang there till dooms-day 1 shan't never lay it down. What shall I go about, mister? Just give me plenty do do and 5100 per month, and it is all right."

The clerks broke into a laugh, and the merchant discmntiuvl, vet sati.-lied, kept to his agreement anil lo-dav, the green countryman is the senior partner in the lirui, and worth a million dollars.

EXTRAORDINARY MAN. Bernardo dtl Ginnodo was not a faultless man. Many times had he slipped from the path of virtue and sinned, but still his heart was in the light place. It was, indeed, for him a fortunate circumstance that his heart was in the right place for it" it had been, for instance, in his leg, or in the back of his neck, instead of in his breast, the chances are thai it would have been very uncomfortable for Bernardo But as a lover he was at least open to the charge of singularity, for he never yielded his affections utterly until he met some one with whom he fell in love. That such a man should pour out his soul in song, was only natural, and we are, therefore, prepared to believe that Bernardo del Ginnodo would have been the sweetest singer in all Terra Cotta but for one unfortunate circumstance, and lhat was that he had no voice and did not understand music. But we may catch a glimpse of the romantic energy and poetic sensibility ot his nature when we earn that even when laboring under these grevious disadvantages he always insisted kindly but timely, upon blowing his own nose. Signora Delia Crusca, when he first ?aw her had taken his eye and had won his love by the unselfish manner in which she handed it back to him. But the Signora herself was not faultless. She too, had many faults and one of these faults was that her teeth were false. If they had fitted her properly Bernardo would not have cared. But they were mnch too loose and it grieved Bernardo—it pained him—to observe, when she smiled and opened her mouth very wide, that her upper and lower sets of teeth remained clenched, while the eye could look over the top of the upper set clear back into her mouth, and preceive the upper surface of the plate was distant about four inches from the roof of her mouth.

off in dudgeon, leaving

the economical Cabinet Minister to enjoy the joke as he might,

all the stories told of Strauss are true, we fear he may be inclined to deception. "They say" that he soy* that when he wa3 is Russia all the noble ladies begged for locks of his hair. He had no notion, however, of becoming bald before his time so he clipped th« shaggy back of his favorite. Newfoundland, and gave locks to the impressionable Russians, who treasured the precious hairs in their albums.
