the engineer escaped with no injuries except
a few slight bruises, none of which, bowever, were of sufficient importance to prevent him from working during the day on
which he made euch a narrow escape. Had
the car, which was being hauled up the incline at the time of the occurrence, been
filled with gravel instead of water, it is altogether probable that the man would have
been crushed to death.—[{La Porte Messenger.
Suarp Pracrice.—A strife occurred recently between Deputy Sheriff Johns, of
Red Bluff, and Constable Sunderland, of
Tehama, to levy an attachment on some
furniture which was coming up on the boat.
The Independent says that immediately on
the boat coming in sight, ‘there arose an
“irrepressible conflict’? between the two
officers as to which should get the first grab.
The steamer was hoarded by the two “irripressibles,’’ who sailed out into the river
in small boats for the purpose, and while
Sunderland rushed to the clerk’s office to
make service, Johns performed a Blondin
feat, by sliding down the tow-rope attached
to the barge, boarded her, and took possession of the goods and chattels of the
debtor, much to the discomfiture of Sunderland, who stood on the poop witnessing the
extraordinary feat, but not having the
pluck to follow. ‘
A Dvew in Arizona,—The Mesilla Times,
of November Ist, says :
A duel occurred at the Pino Alto mines
between Henry Kennedy and Sam. Dyer.
They fought at twenty paces with navy
revolvers, Atthe first fire Dyer’s pistol
snapped, when he received a slight scratch
the disposal of Mr. Barland, the Britis)
Consul.
Two Nose Herors.—When the Lady Elgin, shattered and sinking in the waters of
Lake Michigan, was «slowly bearing her
three bundred victims to their unmarked
graves, it was the captain of the steamer
who sustained and cheered the disheartened
and frightened passengers, His voice calmed their agitations; his. mind directed plans
for rescue; his will controlled their panic
and putan end to their insubordination.
Through the long, and dreary night that
Was spent upon the raft, it was be who counseled and guided. Andin the gray morning, when the fragile craft struck the beetling cliffs upon the shore, the captain still
stood at his post of duty, and die seeking
to save his charge. The name of the hero
was Joho Wilson, When the Connaught
lay rolling helpless in the trough of the
ocean waves, @ mass of fire between decks,
her passengers momentarily expecting to be
burried into eternity, a emall brig loomed
upon the horizon. Hours passed, and it
neared the burning ship, attracted by the
signal of distress, Cheerfully the captain
of the little craft devoted himself to the rescue of the endangered hundreds, Every foot
of his deck was covered with living beings.
Fearfal lest he might be carried away from
the wreck, he made himself fast with a hawser, When asked if he could save all on
board, his answer was, “Aye, aye, I’ll stand
by as long as there’s a soul on her.’? And
he did. Not a life of the two hundred, for
whom rescue seemed impossible, was lost.
The name of this hero likewise was Joba
. Wilson, It was a singular coincidence, and
. one that will live in history.
Tub FaMiny or Garwatpi.—The first who
used this name, 80 far as is shown by history, was Garibald, Duke of Bavaria, ia
the year 584, his ancestors having abandoned the title of King of Bavaria, because
it displeased the Fraconians. From him descended Garibuldus, son of Grimaldus, Kiog
of Lombardy, in673. Names were not then

. that the English Superintendent at the,

written before the recent invasion, From
that it appears that the people of Ruatan

ces, and nobles in the Lombard States, The
family of Guribaldiis early to be found
among the nobles of Genoa, and at the institution of the Golden Book, in 1528, ita
members were recorded as of the ancient
nobility, together with the members of the
family of the great liberator of his country
. at that day—Andrew Doria. From that
