The searoh after these mysterious wires had given a great deal of trouble to the Prussians, without leading to any result. It happened,, .however, .that during this time the Gonn t. You Bismarck, General Yon Moltko, and tho "Grown Prince of Prussia each received several letters in a feminine hand-writing, begging of them to Got tit lib or ty the husband of the lady anthor of this correspondence, and who was kept prisoner by-tho French at Mon? tereau. lu exchange- for (his favor she promised to reveal.to them an important secret. As offers of this Kind, and a great nany o thora analogous to it, were made to the above-named personages by hundreds ?every day, they took no ac? count of the letters we have just referred to. Bot on the morning of tho 28th of September, the visit was annonnoed to Count Bismarck of a young lady, who urgently requested permission to speak to him. He ordered her to come in. She then explained to the Count, that the letters addressed to him were in her hand-writing; that her husband, a Jew, and a Hungarian by birth, Joseph Lau zor, by name, had, as a naturalized Frenchman, been employed in the gene? ral management of railways at Paris in the capacity of engineer, and that before, the investment of tho capital he had been* specially employed in oonstruoting the under-ground telegraph between Paris and To???, na well as that between Paris and ?So?on. After having completed his under? takings Lo hud been sent to Montereau, in order to superintend the service, and to make Borne repairs there; and he had received from General Trocho a letter, apparently containing recommendations to authorities of that town ; but when he arrived there, it'was announced to him, that in cons?quence of his German ori? gin-he was born at Presburg-the au? thorities were going to plaoe him nuder surveillance for some time. A few days afterward, the Mayor gave him to under stand that three mines bad been con ?trnoted along the line of railway near Mon te roan, with the view of blowing up the Prussian troops if they arrived by train, and that ho must connect tho mines, one with another, by an electric battery. "My husband," continued the lady, "refused to do that, pointing out that his mission was to superintend the existing wires, and not lay down new ones. Thereupon he was ill-treated, cast into prison, and no doubt is now in danger of death." After the lady bad sufficiently proved her .identity. Cou ut Bismarck had a con venation with Baron Von Moltke, and three hours later, a small expedition, consisting of a squadron of hussars, set ont for Montereau, and the most extra? ordinary precautions were taken. In the evening, the troops arrived in the town, which was astonished at the occur? rence. The Mayor, who was still more astounded, was arrested, and the Hun garian engineer liberated from his pri son. The mines already referred to were discovered and destroyed, and under the direction of Lauzor, the Prus siana likewiae found in the bed of th Seine, iu four different directions, th mysterious telegraphic communications with,tho capital. The aurora borealis was recently visi? ble in England, and excited great as? tonishment among the more intelligent classes of the population. A traveler who happened to be in Leicestershire at the time found the inhabitants of a cer? tain village gazing intently at the phe? nomenon, One of these observers said, "There is France for you." Tho tra? veler was iutber taken aback, but found, upon inquiry, that the villagers all be? lieved the red light in the sky to be thc reflection of Paris on fire. It is evident from this that the news of a war in France has already readied Leicester? shire, which ahowa how fast news travels now-a-duys. One of the villagers said, "Gad, how it burns," and another ex? claimed, "They're a gettin' it bunder now." Bot the superiority of intelli Sgenoe over ignorance was most striking y shown in the case of the school-master, who was looking at the sky through a telescope. As the traveler passed, he made the following remarkable observa tion: "It is rom? and very sublimely so; bnt, the-asses, I can't make 'em believe it ia only tho Bon them Gross." Here is m mau of genius going to waste in the wilds of Leicestershire, and no one tries even to send him to Parliament. Yet iu England they pretend to enjoy free inati tahona. PUBS CDSSKDMSSS.-A Prussian trum ?leter found tho Fron oh signal book and earned the bogle note of retreat. He nsed his knowledge eo effectually as to insure a great defeat of Gen. Troon n's men. A correspondent relating this in? cident says: "Tho valienttrnmpeter's name is Fred. I. Freund, from Damm, in Pomerania." We dare say be drew a good many more damns from the French whoo found out? Bot ri??le ?enert? ?noredality. Tho . story, how? ever, was subsequently confirmed, and. ? certain ly ono",of tho m?3t rnomorablo toi record: Succinct ly told,' tc iras aa follows: A certain man had the misfor tnne, while in the interior, to offend a gang of noted desperadoes, five of whom pursued him with murderous purpose down to San Francisco. They found their prey sitting quietly, on a Sunday morning, in a little shop, having bia boots blaoked. Without wasting time, they announced their intention of killing him, whipped out their pistols, aud im? mediately began firing. Now, consider? ing the , surprise and the relative num? bers, the chances were at. least twenty to one that the assassins would accomplish their purpose. All had revolvers, and all wero accustomed to their use. Yet, astonishing to relate, tho hunted man contrived to shoot down all five of bis Bnemies. He was sorely wounded, to be sure, and lying on the ground when ho fired his last shot. Indeed, seeing that the last of his assailants who showed fight was still stirring, ho dragged him? self up to the wounded wretoh, shot him through the heart, and with the uncouth acclamation, "I've cooked him 1" foll j back insensible. The whole scene forci? bly illustrated tho faot that in encoun- ] tera of this sort the chances are infinite, ind that superior steadiness of nerve | may get the better of almost any nu? merical odds. "When the Three Guards? men of Dumas win their victories over ?vhole battalions of foes, the reader smiles with incredulity ; and yet there s hardly anything in the pages of the most florid of romances to exceed the exploit of this hardy frontiersman, who, ?ve believe, still survives to tell his ad? venture. By the waters of a stream called Var? ier's Biver, in South-east Missouri, a I ?ragedy was enaoted on Friday last, dif-1 'erent from this, but almost as remarka? ble. The hero, Anderson Shephard, is a | veli known old hunter of tho neighbor ?ood, who, from the accounts, might j ut for a portrait of Leather Stocking. Be is sixty-five years of age, but power? ful and elastio still, and a man of noted I courage and resource. Between Shep? hard and some trappers who frequented he river, an old feud existed. On Fri? lly three of these persons, occupying n| joot, approached the old hunter's skiff, md apparently without warning, one of I .he party raised his rifle and fired. Shep? pard's right arm fell, broken, by his aide. With most men this would bavo decided /he contest, and among men of sixty-five perhaps not one in a million wonld have continued it. But Shephard grasped ' lis rifle, rested it on the side of hia boat, ind in the twinkling of an eye, shot bia issailant dead. The two others then opened fire briskly upon him, he having 1 discharged his only barrel. With his < teeth and left hand he manged, notwith? standing, to load his weapon and reply. The battle lasted for some time, but it I soded by the old man's killing both bis inemies and renching tho shore, after re- { ;eiving seven bullets in his limbs andi jody. Ho is now lyiug, according to | die telegraph, in a critical condition, jut it is believed that he may recover. The pluck and endurance of a man who, it sixty-five, with his best arm broken, thus successfully struggled with three | ible-bodied foes, is perhaps unparalleled, dooper makes Natty Bumpo do great | things, but certainly none more surpris? ing than this feat of Anderson Shephard; ind wo have heard of no Indian warrior j who, either in faot or fiction, has dis jlaved more heroic fortitude and rcsolu Josii BILLINGS ON THE EFFEMINATE MAN.-Tho efferniuate man is a weak| poultice.
