Special,, to ihf, Chieag Tiie,2Sth. This afterpron a very interesting cere mony took place at St. .Paul's Cathedral, being nothing tnore nor less than the reception of a convert from Judaism to the Catholic Church. The conversion of a believer in Judaism is rare, und when it occurs invariably awakens no end or sensation among the brethren renounc ed. The convert was a young lady named Agnes Schmidt, daughter of a weal t hy Jewish merchant, who at .the present moment, with his wife, is traveling in Europe, and consequent ly is ignorant of the step taken by his daughter, who was a favorite child. She was modestly attired, and seemed very .nervous at the important step was about, to undertake. She was accompanied by sympathizing friends who stood with her through the ritual of acceptance into the bosom uf the Catholic Church. The convert was under the instruction of Father Grace, and the ceremony was performed by ltev. Father Keardon. A great sensation lias beeu made in Jewish circles by this young lady's renunciation of ancestors, and when her parents return home trouble is It certainly looks, from apprehended. present indicat; ons, that the young lady will have any thing but an easy time in walking in the new path she has chosen. It is also said that love is at the bottom of the affair. " hr Hillings' Experience 'with JLager. rs got-to- gath-ere- bard-workin- d g I have fully cum to the conklusion that lager beer as a beverage is not intoxicating. 1 have been told so German who by said he had drank it all night long, just to try the experiment, and was obliged to go home entirely sober in the morning. I have seen this same man drink eighteen glasses, und if he was drunk he was drunk in German, and nobody could understand it. It is proper enough to state that this man kept a lager beer saloon, and could have no object in stating what was pot strictly thus: I believe him to the full extent of my ability. 1 never drank but three glasses of lager in my life, and that made my nead outwist as tho it was hung on the eud of a stiing.bul I was told that it was owin to in bile bein out of place; and guess that it was so, for I never biled over wus than 1 did when 1 got hum that nite. My wife thot I was going to die, and I was afraid that. 1 shouldn't, for it seemed as tho everything I had ever eaten in my life was cumin to the surtace, aud I believe that if my wife hadn't pulled off my boots just as she did, they would have come thundering, j 1 . too. Oh how sick I wui! Fourteen years 1 and taste it now. can ago, If any mau shud tell me that lager beer wuz not intoxicating, I shud believe him, but if he shud tell me that I wusn't drunk that nite, but that my etuiamick wuz out of order, I should ask him to itate over a few words, jest bow a' man felt and acted when he wuz set up. If I warn't drunk that nit e, I had nun; ov tho most natural simtums that a man ver had and kept sober. lu the first place it wuz about eighty rods from where I drank the lager beei o the house, and 1 wuz jest two kouit u the road, and had a hole tursteu u rough each oue uv my pantaloon nee; ind didn't have any hat, and tried u pen the door by the bell. pull and awfully and saw everything ii, e room trying to get around on the nack side ov me, and sitting down on t hair, 1 didn't wait long enough for i o get exactly under me when it wuz go .tig round, and I 'set down a little' ut soon and misled the chair about twelvi nches, and couldn't get up soon enougl o take the next one that came along; an u tiiut unit awl; mi wife said I wuz drunk ts a beast, and, as I Bed before, 1 began ospin up things freely. If lager beer is not intoxicating it used ne most almighty nean, that I know. Still I hardly think that lager leer is intoxicating tor 1 have been told po; and am probably the only man living who ever drank enny, when his liver was no. plumb. I don't want to say enny thing against ,i harmless temperance beverage, but if ever I drink enny more, it will be with mi bands tied behind me and my mouth . pried opep. ,' .

Then he grasps the brush firmly in his right hand, setting the saucer on the floor where it is handy to step in, he goes to work, and for the next fifteen minutes a most .astounding complication of noises proce ds from that kitchen.

And that is occasionally relieved by sundry exclamations which may or may not have reference to the work in hand such as "Oach!" "Merciful heaven!" !" "Thunder and lightning and the like.

Some months ago wo published a romantic story, derived from Court reports in the Oregon newspapers, jonceruing an aged vagabond gener-illknown as "Wrestling Joe," who. d'ter a life of exciting vicissitude; , passed mostly on tho border ana tmoug savago tribes of Indians, at la6t when Dearly 100 yearn old, round himself entitled to the posses sion cf an estate in Portland, Oregon, valued at $500,000. The venerable athlete was in a 6tate of extreme destitution when he learned his good fortune, which was the occasion of many interesting and able paragraphs in the newspapers to tho effect that truth is stranger than fiction, a that is sound if not entirely original. It seems, ; however, that the rehiarkable adventures of " Wrcs have not yet come to an tling'-Joeend, for later proceedings in the Courts have elicited the facta ' that Joe at various times had flourished under enough different aliases to fill an ordinary City Directory; that in 1825 he broke jail in St. Claire, Illinois, and 1834 repeated tho operation in Bntlcr County, Alabama; and that tho whole story upon which he founded hi claim to the Portland estate was a tissue of falsehoods. An ancient wife appeared upon th3 wit ness stand to assist m the exposure, and finally the old tinner broke down and made a complete copieesion of tho imposture he ha.ds attempted Several witnesses for the fraudulent claimant have beeu indicted for per jury, and Joe, himself is now likely to wrestle with fate within the walls of "a penitentiary for the brief re majnder of bj life. siV, Y.

Kimball, of the Twelfth Maine Vol unteers During the trial an ineffectual- effort was made to show that Mr. Browne had made illegal gains in this transaction, after which by permission of the court he made a personal explanation of the whole matter, in the course of which he turned on Butler and said : 'I went to the South an honest man and I came back an honest man, and that is more than General Butler can say. I put my whole property at the disposal of the Government, sileir plate, included." This allusion to silver plate apparently touched Benjamin on tho raw, as he interposed and asked Judge Shepley if this was not going beyond the limits of a personal explanation. The Judge laughed aud said: '"I did not guppose, General, that you needed the protection of the court." The evidence introduced was ot a nature eo damaging to Lamar that the case was thrown out of court," and a verdict ordered for the defendants without the intervention of a jury. It was shown that while the President of the Bank of the' Ftepublic in Now York City he 'wrote to Memminger, the rebel Secretary of the Treasury, that he had got printed and forwarded a large amount of Confederate bonds, flis letter to Memminger on this subject was read in opcu court, and also .a 'curious statement by" Lamar, written out after taking the oath of allegiance, in which declared that his only object in taking the oath of allegiance was to get back his property. It was also shown that he was president of a coinpany'organizcd for the purpose of running the blockade. The assurance of this r old in bnngiug suit to recover damages because the Gov ernment had confiscated his property, was fairly equalled by the enronkrv with which Butler advocated' his preposterous claim.
