In vain the philosophic eye. May seek to view the fair abode, Or find it in the curtained sky? * It is the dwelling place of God ! i Mode of Capturing the Hyena. Tire Rev. N. I avis, in hie "Evenings in my Tent," gives the following account of the peculiar mode of capturing the hyena: "This animal, it appears, has two doors, according to the' Arab phraseology, to its abode, on account of its being so narrow that it; cannot turn about in it. By ono it en ters, and py too other it goes form.? The Arabs, on observing one of those j animals, watch the hole by whieii it enters, ami being prepared with a strong rope net, they proceed fo place j it carefully over the opposite hole, j whilst one of their fratenity, skilled in I the profession, and prepared with a rope, Mrorks his wayg into the door by which the hvena has entered. As he nears the aniuial, he charms it, according to my information, saying, 'come iny dear little creature, I will lead you to a place where many carcases are prepared for you; plenty of food aawaits 3011. Let me fasten 'this rope to your beiiutjJnl leg, and stand j .quiet whilst I dp so * This sentence.! " or something very similar to it, is repeated till the operation is effectually performed, when the daring son of 1 Sahara begins to gore the brut with a stiletto, or so 1 e such weapon, till he is forced to rnn into the net prepared for him, when he is either at once killed or carried off alive. But when it happens that the men in charge of the net commit some blunder, through which the hyena is enabled to struggle and reenter his abode, the charmer, in spite of his charming, tails a victim to his savage rage, ami frequently his companion j can scarcely contrive to get clear without teeling somewhat of its effects." Story ojr a Kamrod.?-A Mr. Stout, ol Iowa, baring occasion lately to nsc his h?aded rifle, attempted to dischage it, which lie tailed to do after .fx plotting several ca{?. lie then entered his h use and on examination cauie to the conclusion the powder was wot.? lie pricked some dry powder into the tube, and placed on it a cav> partly filled with powder also, lie then i took the wiper, which had a ball j screw on the end, put it into the rifle and screwed it into the hall After {getting things so far ready for operation, lie sat the triggers, cocked the rifle, and setting his teeth on the wiper, pulled, while with another rod he set oft* the triggers. The rifle went off, and rod, ball, and all passed through his mouth and neck and entered tne wall of the house. Strange to say he was bu4 slightly injured, and was able to go to his work in a few days.? [Strange enough!] However self denying a vromau may be, she never can dispense with some sort of a looking-giass. i liter a factory or workshop where girls are employed, and though the operatives may be forced to lunch upon stale bread and white-oak cheeae^you arc certain to find a many-angled piece of , mirror affixed to the wall.

The writer then proceeds to give the following account of a wolf hunt and the finding of ft feu man skeleton in the cavity or arVco: A few days since, while riding in the rear of our town, in a small ravine through which a streamlet takes its quiet way beneath its crystal covering, j and whoso irrigation has produced tall grasses and shrubs that uiakes a bid '< ing place for game, I citmo suddenly :; upon a largo bin.6k wolf. He was!, scratching at a thin place in the ice,!, almost and seemed bamisired for water.' ( When he saw me he started in full ] run for the forest in the river botom. 1 keot noon his heels and tried to ride . upon him. lie was almost exhausted,! i ami just as I supposed ho would give j out. he slipped into the hollow of a | large cotton wood tree. I j I stopped the holo through which he I entered, and came hack to town and 11 got an axe and the dogs, ami the as-' < sistance of Frank Mahan and \V ill lam : Palmer, and together, we returned to , cut him out. The dogs wore anxious, and we were prepared with our guns to receive him. i When wc had made a large hole,,' about four feet from the ground, the ' dogs jumped ar it on the outside and 1 the wolf on the inside, and such bai'k .t ing, growling snnppijtg and howling, 1 ' never heard before. It made the 1 wods resound for a great ^istance and ! brought several of the ileighl*>rs to I the spot. Tjiings contiiytt?(rsSo fur a while and we consulted/^ hat hud besfto l>e dono. Wc could i*jt shoot tlio wolf! through this opening, without too great ' < a risk of killing tlio dogs, fur lyb only |< appeared it the inside when tlio (logs wore at thi outside. We tin/lly con- 1 eluded to stVip tho hole iUnl we had ' made, and felVthe tree^bjfehopping n ' i narrow gash all ai'ound it. it The tree came down a little sooner, than we expected. Frank Malum had 11 the axe lifted for another stroke, as it jl went over w th a crash. Tho wolf, with ' i bristled hack and glaring eves, and1 glittering teeth, leaped at bis thr >at with terrible ferocity^' TTifc" "descjpd- . ing axe nifft it half wnv, cleaving its ; skull and laying it dead at his fdof. We had no time-to express our wonder and congratulations at his narrow and singular escape, before our attention was called to that which tilled us with amazement, if not dread. It was1 a human skeleton, medium size, and of a female, lwdden in the cavity of the tree. Its posture was erect, and the bones were held together by a kind rf. clear integument that seemed to cover^ like a transparent skin, the entire frame. The jar of the felled tree se vered several of thf joints, and >ve drew them ft" ont and placed them ( again in form. The proportions were perfect and the limbs straight, indicating a contour, when in flesh, ot perfect j i symmetry. Who could it have been that thus perished, years ago, in this wild forest ? and how came her death in this strange place? were queries that were immediately suggested.? , Could it have beon some maiden, who like tbe'bride in lkTheMUlleto Bough',* t had concealed herself from her 'over * in the-heart of this old tree, and be- ( emndd'asteirtid there awd died? Or, in escaping-wild beasts, had climbed ? in tTiis close retreat, whence she could t 11 t extricate herself? Those were natural suggestions, for the f.kcletou fit t ted close in the cavity and seemed to { have been fastened there, llow many years ago this frame possessed vitality, and how inaify years it had inhabited this time-worn, storm-wroughttcne- j ment, and how it came there, and to , what race it once belonged, will remain ] mystery a until the universal revela- i lion, t -inn ofMisa^^im in 'meal, and ^la^ a hotter poker ?;th?a miy s^ iu hiMjrcuit Lose admirable quanncauons of uorse rendered him tk *inost popular lanintliis district.

"Sheriff," ci ied the court, "take that man's hat off" The sheriff approached and repeated the command of the court. "I'm bald," said Mr. Dewzenbury, 'and can't comply." "Yon can't," exclaimed the jndge, waxing angry, "then I will tine yon five iollni-6 for contempt of court " "What's that you say, judge?"? replied Mr. Dewzenbury, us lie walked leliberatelv up to the judge's stand.

One of the biggest wags in this city is the principal salesman in Wilev's hook establishment in Broadway. We refer to Mr. J.
