Louis, jt may be is a large sum inferred that hour,' as an equivalent of that mans happiness. He is designated by the Detroit J'ne Pee.-- a "imimi-nen- t merchant ol M. Louis, while a particular friend named lilock divides that honor with him. The latter arrived in Wind, One day last week a firmer named Wall, living near Taylor- ill., met with an accident that, hut for his grit and oolne, might have resulted fatally. In his field, sixty rods from hi.s.hou0, was a huge bowlder which he wished removed, and thought that the most expeditious way and the least expensive would le to sink it. Accordingly he commenced to dig under the rock. After he had got well under tlu stone tlu eaith caved, and the huge rock came tumbling down upon him. It broke one of hi.s legs and savagely bruised the other. The spade with which he was digging was broken also, ar.d there Wall was caught witli a ton of rock alxive him. The wind was blowing tlcrcely, and although he made a loud out-cras jmssihle, he was unable to make any of his family hear him. Then the clear grit of the man came to the top. The spade was caught under the rock, ;is well ns himself. With his hands he dug it loose, and used the implement' so industriously that in due time he had liberated himself, and then, with one leg entirely useless and the other MriouslytIi'ahled1 he crawled sixty reals to the shelter of his own roof. At last accounts he was convalescing and happy in the project of a sjeedy recovery front ti is injuries. Iowa Mule Register , Nov. 21th. v A certain deacon, who was a zealous advocate of the cauc of temjK'rancc, employed acarKnter to make some alterations in his parlor. In repairing a corner near the fireplace it was found necessary to remove the waincmt, was when lo! a mares nest brought to light, which astonished the workman most marvelously. A brace of decanters, sunryjunk-Ixjttle- s all containing somea pitcher nnd thing to take tumblers, were cosily rejapung there in snug quarters. The joiner, countenwith wonder-stricke- n ance, ran to the. proprietor with the intelligence. Well, I deexclaimed the deacon, clare, that is curious, sure enough. It must he that old Captain 11. left those things there when he occupied the premises, thirty years since. Perhaps he did, returned the discoverer; hut, deacon, that ice in the pitcher must have tiecn well frozen to have remained solid.

Mr. Mock meditatively replied that that was true, hut was of no consequence, so far as he could see. The prominent merchant lgged to differ, and asked a third person if lie was not nun it abused. The referee said he had evidently been damaged, and, calculating the days of his wifes absence, estimated tin amount of injury received at Mr. Mock wi'hed to compromise and for the hotel-hilvictual account Itefore named, which the prominent merchant of St. Ijoui.s gladly accepted, and returned home with his runaway wife in high spirits. If this is the sort of bargaining that prevails among prominent merchant of St. Louis, it is not to lie wondered at that the legitimate business of their city languishes. Tribune, Nov, 2d. Chicago : pi-to- l, A Anv At car-far- e a) of Luiorcicg a Lieu. Some time ago one of the lumber firms of this place furnished tome Chinamen lumbt r enough y to build a building. They failed to get pay for the full amount furnished, and before the Mtv days expired, filed a lien on t lie Imihiing for the balance due. Whenever a new remedy is tried on Chinamen they generally pay up without it contest; hut try it tiiree or four times, and they fail to see anything terrible in it, and will contest the matter as long as they can have a standing in court. In the ease a!ove referred to John found out the lien was tiled. After a number of visits to the Recorders office to make sure it was more and more there, he puzzled. He didntknow whether it was something that was going to effect him or the building. He put up an extra Josh in the house. The lien still remained in the office nnd talkee Recorder's altout me housee. John stood on the street and looked at his (to him) magnificent alnsle. At last he rushed in, gathered up all he had, and started off, exclaiming, Mellikee man heap sabe. No He has never been catches me. seen since. The other day the lumlierman put the building on trucks and wheeled it to his own lot. Droville Mercury , December two-stor- Rocirh on Ihe Deacon.

Of nil the ruins on which the eye of man can gaze, or on which the memory can dwell, none are more painfully sublime than the ruins of humanity and what are they?
