"Thia ia one of th? moat remarkable ?ind beet'authenticated phenomenon < f tp kind on record. It ooourred in 1840, Aa Lynchburg, at tho rosideuoe of the Ute W. A. Bm i tb, D.

"The Methodist clergy seleotod one of their number to hold the oradlo and pre? vent if possible its movement. The Rev. Dr. Peun, one of the purest meu of his time, waa chosen for this purpose. While it wns rocking ho grasped it. It wreuohed itself from bis gripl Ho seized it more firmly. The timbers cracked and the oradle would have boon broken io tho struggle to release itself, bod he not loosened bis hold. "It was not further hindered iu its daily exercise. ' Af tor thirty or more days it stopped and never commenced again. "No explanation of this wonderful affair was ever given or attempted." The Missouri Democrat thus allude? to the person who with his manuscripts be? sieges editors: "It there ?re nuy errors in it-which there are, to the extent ol making re-writing au easier task than correlation-he would like lo have us make the necessary emendations; it bus boen au long since bo wrote for the press that ho is tempted to self-distrust and a hint of possible imperfection, ?do be would liku to have tho editor 'rend it over' (two hours of bard work) ?nd oor reot it (fotir hours more), aud put it io to morrow's paper ('.wo columns of space).

A BiiBEZis IN CONNECTICUT.-The poli? tical' newspapers of (Jon n?o tie ut have fallen by the ears upon a question of grave moment, to wit: Did Gov. Jewell, (a candidato for re-eleotiou.) after dining with a party?? including several colored men, who appear to be rather the most well behaved individuals involved, go out of tho boase, dwelling or building whereto he dined by the front door or tho back? The combat thickens, much bad language swells the din, aud still the dreadful question remains uudeoided tho front door or tbe buck? The fact is, it appears, thut the Qovornor really di.I go out by the back door-presumably to dodge the consequences ot having dined with his colored snpportors.

GENBLKURN: On behalf of the Char? lotte, Columbia und Augusta Railroad, I beg leave to luy before you tho following fuuts aud petition, conoermug the receut resolution of Council, requiring thin company to opeu Upper Bnuudary street, at its intersection with our embankment. When this road was first built, the street was left open, and was oros?ed by th? railroad ou a high trestle Persons liv mg in that neighborhood used to walk over tho trestle, aud in tho connu ol limo several uocidents occurred by indi viduals falling throngh-one of which, J am informed, was fatal to a young gtrll. Public opinion and the newspapers cullet on Council to require tho road to fill iq the trestle, which Couuoil at last did, ai will be soou by a letter attached fion Mr. Wes.

To open a pussuge say, twenty feet wide at bottom, througl this embankment, (there thirty five fue nigh,) and bridge the channa properly will require an outlay of at least $2,00 on the part of the railroad, besides th perpetual expense of maintenance o tho wooden bridge-the cheapest tbs could be erected, the placo being on sharp curvo und a yery dang- rous out and auy Huoiduut ever huppi-iiing thur necessarily involving a fearful loss o life.
