These gals grow up, and pretty soon They lay us old ones oh the shelf; Lorenzo is a smart young man I guess I'll tend them hons myself, A Horrible Scene. At ^gathering of Poles in the ! tie village of Kernst on the Southi Nnieman, on the 29th of Jilly li when all thought themselves sec from the intrusion of any of the : mefous 'spies who keep the Russ Officials informed of the malconte among them,Alexandrina Kossow; a young lady whose father, the you fer son of a formerly noble Pol family, was killed in the recent tro les at Warsaw, expressed her sy pathy with the unfortunates wh Kussian severity had murdered sent into exile. The meeting wa purely social one, and nona drean that anything said there would ret tue ears of spies, for all present w< known to be Poles, and firm baters the harsh rule under which they tb lived.. Still, as the young girl in 1 {?assion.'.te remembrances'of a fathe ove deplored .his .death, express . her sympathy with' rebellion and 1 detestation of her oppressors, she v, cautioned lest her loud tone wot enable"peo"ple at the window to-he ber. With a,hasty glance as thou to read in the faces of those abc her who should betray her the you 'lady relapsed into silence. Wh ten o'clock arrived ,-th&.latest hour Polish gatherings, the company st arated, and the young lady, acco; paniedby her affianced, Julian Ti xnensky, went to her home, 'If, in passing from the house of t gathering she had been more obs? vant, Alexandrina would have se the maliciously triumphant elane cast after her by Catherine Merdo a woman of about thirty-five, a Pc by birth, and a sympathizer with h unhappy countrywomen whenev her own passion was not concerne and, from the subsequentproceedinc it seems that in this case she hi been superceded in the affections the young Dr. Tremensky by tl more beautiful and younger Alexa drina Kossowitz. On the following day, shortly, aft rising, Alexandrina was seized in b own home, a short distance fro Kernst, by two Cossacks of the gua: at the garrison, and taken before tl potty, judge. The younglady of nineteen, ham some and trembling, prGctuced i ieeling of pity. Having at first d nied the accusation, she was confron ed with Catherine Merdoff, and the acknowledged her offence. In pas ing sentence, the petty judge sai ' that her seditious utterances migl have warranted him in sending E< before a higher tribunal, where -th penalty would, be-death ; but in vie of her youth and contrition, he shoul merely order, her to receive thirty five lasheB of the knout. . Almo benumbed with shame and terro the girl was led away to be prepare for punishment, fdr in Russia all sei tences save that of .dsath are carrie out immediately after they have bee pronounced. Word having been sent tp the off cor commanding tbe troop34 a guar ' of two hundred men wera' 'ordere into the garrison' square, and the JJ ecntioner of the troop was calle upon to be ready to Carry out th duties of his office. In halt an hou after the sentence had been given the troops had been formed in a hoj low square, in the centre of whlcl had been placed a scaffold, standinj on four legs, the top of which wa a;? inclined plane. Beside this >toot the executioner, having in his mus cular hand the' knout. This weapoi consists of a stick, or handle, tw< feet long-, with* a lash four, feet lone of soil leather, to the end of whic? i? attached by a loop a piece of fla; raw hide two inches wide and twe feet long. In the hands of au tx 1 peri?nced man the piece ?? raw hkU can be made to cut like a knife... As the executioner stood facing thc scaffold, Alexandrina Kossowitz wal brough!: tb him. by her guard, and ii a few moments her clothing was re moved to the waist, despite her al most mute appeals to be spared, thc shame. . As she pleaded she was bent on the plane, her hinds strapped* tc the two upper corner-!, and her ankle* secured at the feet of the structure. One of the executioner's assistante hold.her head, and the petty judge gavo'the order for whipping to com mence. Twirling' the long lash in thc air the executioner stepped sud denly backwards, and with [sharp crack tho thong fell on the bark of the sobbing girl, nutting ?livid streak from right slwm?der to her waist. A terrible tremor passed ever lier, and a low cry escaped h??r lips, but ir w;u? the only sound fhe uttered, and were it not for the blood which soon commenced to flow, it might have sterned that the whipping was being done on the naked back of a corpse. When the la.st lash had been given, the ypnng lady was unfastened, and. with her clothing rudely thrown over her, she was taken to p-ison, and there, after thanking the judge for his mercy", according to the nee* essary formula, she ? was delivered over to her friends. Five days afterward, the Gazette of Wilna contained this announce ment : " The Polish criminal, Alex andrina Kossowitz, (daughter of the rebel Peter Kossowitz,) who was knouted for seditious utterance .on the 29th of July at Kernst, while submitting her lacerations to medical treatment, in the house of the phy sician Tremensky, stohe a vial- of prussic acid, with which she ended uer days." HAD TO EO SOMETHING.--By a .squall in the Delaware Buy the other day, while sailing-in a yatch, two young men were overtaken. At Naz areth Methodist Church, on Twelfth street, Philadelphia, at public wor ship they had occasionally been pres ent. From the way things looked the capsizing of their shallop was very near inevitable. " Bill," said one to the otuer "this ' is serious business ; can you pray ?" ". No, I can't; I've heard Joe Quin do it, and I've listened to B?l Vo&t but I can'; do it myself." ' " Well, you can sing a hymn, canTf you? For God s sake . do something.'' "No, I can't sing here: Hr <v. can I sing when this boat at any moment may drown us both ?" . " Well, we mustdo something reli-% gious. If you can't p?ay and can't sing let's take up a collection." I To this Bill consented. In his com panion's hat he deposited thirteen pennies, a corkscrew and a broken .bladed knife. As he. did this the wind lulled and the shallop made a successful landing.
