MISCELLANEOUS. A Singular Burial.-The Courier des Etats- Unis from' the "Avenir" of Point Peter, -Guadaloupe, gives the following instance of superstition remaining among the blacks of that island. The occasion *as the burial of a negro cook . A few moments before taking up the coffin. all the cooksofPoint Peter, a pretty imposing number. had arrived at the house of the dead. Each wore upon his mourn ing dress, the white apron, symbol of the profession, and carried in his hand-ono a saucepan, one a frying pan--in a word, all the kitchen utensils accompanied all the cooks. The coffin was followed up by a complete meal-carefully prepared, and which would have been much better for a living, than a dead man. There were fine looking roast fowls-iced hams, plates of baked rice-and the usual compliments ofthese dishes, which, carried with be coming gravity-with their crape cover ing-recalled a distant idea of the capart soned war horse following the last march of his master. At intervals, in the funeral procession was heard loud, or smothered cries-not of heart stricken mourners, but of cocks and ducks, whose heads were cut off from time to time,. with great solemnity, and their blood sprinkled along the road. Arrived at the ouskirts of the city, the procession halts. and then begias a most singular movement ; some rub the kettles. some sharpen the knives, some blow vio lently the invisible bellows. One is ap parently broiling a chop, another cutting up parsley, another turning the spit, and another tasting the sauce. It is a final representation of the bustling scenes of a kitchen on great occasious--a last discharge over the funeral of the cook. like the military discharge over the grave of a soldier. When the coffin was let down, the dishes they had brought were all placed in order upon it, and the well provisioned body covered with earth. The crowd returned, at their leisure, convinced, no doubt, that the dead would fare well in his tomb. The Little Showman.--In New-York, for the last past year or two, says the Picayune, a mild blue-oyed little Italian lad might almost daily be seen about the streets on the battery and in other public places. exhibiting in a small brown looking cage, but a trifle larger than a good sized rat-trap, a few pretty little mice, as white as the fresh and soft cotton that their little master daily placed in their dwelling. The child was a perfect picture of angelic meekness. His coarse blue trowsers, his well worn black velveteen jacket, and a full clumsy looking blue cloth cap, from which streamed his long silky flaxen hair, and his little box slung acrss his shoulders by a leather strap, could not fail to interest the attention of the passer by. As he doffed his cap and bowed with a natural and inimitable grace. and uttered his "You see at fite mice ?" his look was irresistibly - touching, and when receiviug an assent the joy that beamed in his smiling counte nuance and -lighted up his face as he eagerly took the' little creatures from their cage, and let them clamber upon him, over his face.and into his bosom, imparted a glow of pleasure to even the most stoical old gentleman" that ever wore a spe-:cer and carried a blue cotton uilbrella. He-was alone, a stranger in a foreign laud, and the only beings th-t he could pres< to his bosom with the knowledge they at least were his little comlpaniots, the tnice. This lad is recalfcd to our rec,!iecuto '>y seeing annunced ia the Bsmomu papers that a bmfl l, inte-restii, ittie I talia;n lad named .Angelo ILa II wer, w-ho exhibited! a white mouse in tha' cmty, had dlied in iIe Matv achusetts Housuitat, after ans ilaes4 of ten *months. He enlisted the sympathy of all 1he officers ofthe institution, who extended to him e very ksindness. The Boston Times itn speaking of his death, relates a singular circumstance-the appearance itt the gar den of the hospit al of a white tnouse. The -Times thus concludes a notice of the death: "The day before lhe died, a beautiful young white mouse was found in the garden of the hospi:al and biought to Angelo. H o was delighted. The bitterness of death -was for the moment forgrotten. The night which followed wvassolemn~ and melancholy -to all his fellow sufferers, as they listened to bis touching ejaculations, 'I cautnot (lie ! 'Ilam afraid to die ! 1 want my mother !' But the weary one was soon at rest: "For whetn the morn came dim and sad, And child with early showvers, .His quiet eyelids closed-lhe had Atnother morn than ours." . A Woman Killed by her Hlusdand at hier own request.-The follo wing extraordin ary case occurred a short time since in WVurtemburghs ; we find it related in a late fo~reign journal: Adam Gayring, a man sixty four years of age of honest and upright dealings. -loved and respected by all who knew him, presented himnself on the 8th nit. before the authorities at H-eidenheim, and statedI ca:mly that he had just killed his wife. His declaration wsas immediately taken as follows:-Aly wife.' lie said, as every one knows, has been suffiring for a long time from illness, and at times the pains she had to endure were such as to affect her reason ; she Intterly gave up all ho pes of recovery, and cotntinu ally repeated that not only was life a torment to her, but that she feared that if I died before her, she would be reduced to misery. This mor niog, after we had read together the 4th chapter of the Book of Judges. (they were devout people atid read the Bible every -day) she requested me to drive a nail into her temple, as Jael did to Sisera, as such a death seemed to tier short and easy, and would put an end to her sufferings ; she said she forgave me beforehand for the act, of which she absolved me before God and -man. A nail, she said, would not causa a -great homiorrhage, and would make but a slitght wound. 'As soon as 1 am dead,' she added, *you can close the wvound, put ,,on ue a clean cap, and no one will know any thing at all about it. After long res istance (continued Gayrin2) I gave way to the wishtes of-my wife. I took s nail and began-to. drivejt'into her left temple with a hammer~bt ifiuiailwas too weak, and she point, instead of' entering flattened itself on the bone. I thea took -a sma ll drill. but was equally unsuccessful. My wif gre'w impatient, and requested s to kill her at once with the hammer, Which I accordingly did, by knocking in the skuli. The body of my'wife is at my house, where you can examine it at your leisure." The magistrate immediately proceeded to the house with a medical man, and Gayring under a strong guard. They faund the body' dressed upon the bed. Ou the left temple there were two wounds, and the right side of the skull was knocked in as law down as the temple. Beside the bed was a table on which was a Bible, the nail, drill, and hammer- a luded to. On the ground was a basin of water in which the murderer, according to his own de claration, washed his hands before presen ting himself to the authorities. - Gayring is now in prison ; he is perfectly calm and convinced that he acted well to fulfilling the wishes of his wife by putting an end to her sufferings. Some Wurtem burg papers state that the inhabitants of the village ofGussehtadt, where the murder was committed, left their work as soon as they heard of the murder, and spent the day in the church, fasting and praying for the soul of the departed. There are those to whom a sense of re ligion has come in storm and tempest; there are those whom it has surrounded amid scenes of revelry and idle vanity ; there are those, too, who heard its still small voice amid rural leisure and placid contentment. But perhaps the knowledge which causeth not to err, is most frequently impressed upon the mind during seasons of affiction and tears are the softened showers which cause seeds of heaven to spring and take root in the human heart.
