TueBlay Mornimr, October 10 1871. y ? .> ,Tp.c Block fire King. ? f?? newspapeW extract df somewhat doubtful origin waa circul?t od sometime ago, giving.an account of the wonderful performance of a negro man ia Talbot County, Maryland, in handling red-hot iron, aud doing various other feats with Aro, and now a correspondent of the New York Herald has famished details of the matter with the names of wit? nesses. He-says: \ Business" recently called cse ?o t?6 County Beat of Talbot County. While . there I heard from several gentlemen of promiuooop Ihai'story of a negro bluok Bmith, who lived in an adjoining Coun? ty, upon.whom Aro had no effect what? ever, a The story was so incredible that I gave it little hoed. - A day or two after - J beard of this remarkable negro, Mr. T. K. Bobsoa, editor of the Eastern Star1, balled and stated that the negro ' was in town, and that tho physicians were going to make an examination of him, und invited me to witness tho.ope rations. '-'.Mr.. Hobson, and', myself dirent at once ?o Hr. Stack's office, where were '''et?seuibled ' pre. Anderson, Goldbbo \r'6bg\?

Henry, all prominent citizens ?pt.T^b?t County. ; i?.A>?brisk . fire of .anthracite coal was burning in a common coal stove, and an iron shovel was placed in the stove and heated to a white b?at. When all this wan rood*; the negro palled off his boots arid pl ticed tho hot shovel apon tho Holen -off^i?^?t, ?nd kept it there anti! the nbovbl became black.

Th< negro then took the heated lead into th? ,r^n^ofrbiiS(b?nd,r ahd then put it inti his month, olio Wi ri? it to run around h ii teeth and gurus., He repeated the opera ^Qb' s^votal times, each,time keeping tb trnetied lead in his month until it solidi fled. After eaoh operation the pbysi oiana examined, him carefully, bat cou! ,!find:P,othing upon his flesh to indicat tit at he had been in tho least affected b rtb^treal^'Bab?tanoe he had been hand nn^FAfi??th'e'performa?cas with th lead, ho deliberately put his hand int .tho stove, in which was a very hot fir? ,tool?' therefrom a. handful of hot ooah and passed them about the room to tb gentlemen present, keeping them iu hi abd fibmo time. Not the slightest ev: "dence of a barn was visible upon hi hand after ho threw the coals baok int the stove:*"!} f- _ . " The exhibition wai regarded by a who witnessed' it as most remarkabh for there was no opportunity for th practice of ohioanery. Every geotlema present was there for the purpose of di tee ting, if possible, any trick-if trie there was-and none could have had th leust interest in aiding or abetting tb negro in his performances. Whatovt solution may be had of this matter, thei ?va be no doubt bot that this negi i bandies fire in the manner set fort above,,without the use of any meehan cal, or?'chemical, appliaucea whatever, fe i?e.'.has been subjected to the severe teats possible, not only ab the time sp citied by.me, but at ?l?verai other timi aud places, aud ia the presence of son . pf,,the brat roon ip.the State of Mar; land. ' I have conversed', with a grei number bf people who have seen bin gentlemen of'education and integrit, all of whom declare that they db n< believe that fire has the least effect upc bis flesh. After be had conoluded bis perfori anees in Or. Stack's office, I sought i opportunity1 to converse with him. found him very ignorant, not able read or write, and, in all respects, an u adulterated negro. His name is Natbi Coker, and he is about fifty-eight yee of ago.'! He was born in tho town Hillsborough, Caroline County? Mai laud, and was the slave of Henry Ii. S lera, of that place, by whom be was sc 'to- Bishop Emery. In relation to 1 ability to handle fire, and bow ho fi; became aware of it, he said: "Bo when I was about thirteen years old, c Massa Emery hired me out to a lawj whose numo waa burnell. Ho treat me badly, and did not give* me oncu to eat. I spied around the kitchen c day, and when the oopk left I shot I dipped my band into the dinoor pot a pulled out a red-hot dampling. 1 boiling water did not burn, and I cot eat tho hot dumpling without winkii so, after dat, I of ten got my dinner < way. I has often got do hot.fat off I boiling water and drank it/ X drink Coffee when it is boiling, and it does i give me half so much pain as it doe*; drink a glass of cold water... I al wi like it just as hot aa I can get it." then interrogated him as to the efl heated substances had upon his fie and asked him when be Handled th with hiB hands if be did not suffer m than, when be took .thom inwsrdly, whiob ho,replied: "No, boss; I of take my iron out of tho forge with i.faond when red hot, but it don't bo ?sdid?VoH il!' I V 1 ! Since I-was u/lfUlo boy I bave nevoy* boeu. afraid' to . handle fire." He then stated that often, when' by himself, he would pick np rod-hot iron because his ! tongs were not handy, and that he never, felt any discomfort from it. He felt'no more harm, he said, from haudling f)re than stories. "vV* '" ! .j I could oite a great number of in? stances besides those mentioned, and give the names of a large number of gentlemen of high stauding who have Witnessed tb o wonderful doings of this uh tutored Africau; but I dd not doom it necessary, us what I hu ve stilted can bo more than authenticated by almost aby prominent mun living in this locality. I om thoroughly convinced, from personal observation, that fire has no effect what? ever upon his flesh, and I am sustained in that bt lief by the united judgment" of all gentlemen who have neon him, in? cluding a large uumber of physioians. SINGULAR PRAOTIOE.-The York (Pa.) Democrat tells a tough story to explain several accidents which it says have oo ourred recently on the Northern Central Railway. It appears that tho flagmen are roquired to go along tho road somo distance from any train which may be detained, in order to warn approaching trains. It is often necessary to wait' sometime, "and ia order to get somo rest in thia time, it is said they lay their head on tho truck and go to sleep, wait? ing for the noise und jar of the approach? ing train to wake them ap." SHARP.-Alluding to the* faot that two Government employees at Washington have been caught stealing tho silver Heals from some treaties,, the Cincinnati Enquirer congratulates tho country that the Government buildings-are "seourely anchored" and cannot be stolen. Tho ohirpicg of noricketin a banking house in Chicago caused the building to be surrounded by policemen, who ex? pected to capture a gang of burglars.
