The Legend of Santa Clans I <
Tins popular name ??t the saint who'
presides over Chrismas and the toy
gifts of that welcome season, is derived <
from St. Nicholas. The legend of his j
first appearance is an Italian one. Ac-1
cording to this: a shoemaker named : <
Giraldi, who lived in Forrara, wai so '
Miserably px>r, tiiat his labor from!
day to day barely kept bis family from
starvation, and ho was unable to give i
fcVcti a small dowry to his three pretty'
daughters. It was not thought proper'
to marry without a dowry ; and thus :
tho young girls, though each had an <
admirer, were compelled to remain j
single. Their father, however, went i
every morning to the shrine to pray to '
Ilia patron saint, St. Nicholas, that he c
would work a miracle to relieve him i
from his distress.
One of the nearest neighbors, a rich
merchant, who chanced one day to
ovorhoar his simple petition, rodiculed i
tlie idea of his expecting the saint to!
tako care of his daughters, and recotn-'
mended hint to clloose a patron who;
would he able to do something for hiim, 1
KMine," he said, u is the Jew lino-1 <
fiajuto; he lends money at two per cent, 1
a month; and it you know how to ;
manage, you may in.ikc four with it.
He is not so deaf as Saint Nicholas.** 1;
The pool* man was shocked at his'l
impious speech, and assured tho iner- ';
chant that his religious faith could i
never he shaken. lie wont every day ; i
to church, notwithstanding the other's t
mockery. j t
It was now Christinas day, wlienfj
the merchant and the Jew settled up their
yearly accounts ; Buonnjnto found \
lie owed his fi icnd three hundred du-j
Cats, and wis!ring to give him an agree- j
able surprise, lie ordered one of thee
ducks lie had carefully fattened to bei
killed and roasted, and then with his'
own hands introduced the throe hun-'
dred gold pieces into the inside, and '
sewed tliom up. lie then scut the,,
duck to the merchant, as a Christinas i j
present. I.
The merchant's wife, who shared the (
comm ?n prejudices against .Jews, de
clare.l she would nut touch the duck,
and the rich man resolved to sell it.
When Giraldi passed on his way from
Church, his neighbor, as usual, bantered
hi ii on his devotion, showed him
the Christmas gift his patron saint had
sent him, and taunted him with the!
stolidity of Saint Nicholas, who could
not even send hint a piece of bread.
Finally, bo offered to sell the duck for j
a dollar, and to wait for payment, as
lie knew Giraldi to be strictly honest/
Tito shoemaker carried the duck home,!
and when ho carved it for his family's,
Christmas dinner, and the three hundred
ducats fell out, bis first exclamation
was?" Praise to Saint. Nicholas."!
When he recovered front his surprise,
be would have taken the money
back, but his wife persuaded hint that,
as ho had bought the duck, it was i <
rightfully hi* own. He, therefore, di-: ]
vided the stun hit ween tho two suit-1 |
01*3 for his two eldest daughters. 1 Tho
merchant, after some days, (lis- (
covered tho loss of the three hundred |
ducats, and went to tho shoemaker to t
(teirwin) the monov, which was refused. 1
The cause came l?cforo the magistrate, j t
who was a pious man, and beared, with (
indignation, how cruelly the poor man <
had foeon ridiculed about his rolhdon.
His sentence was that Giraldi should
koep the money, and that the iner- i
chant and tho Jew should, besides, pay s
a fine, for their usurious dealings, of t
one hundred and titty ducats, to he p
given as a dowry for the shoemaker's 1
youngest daughter. p
Tno meaning of this legend is, that <
a benoHcent Providence watches over <
and takes care of the poor who are
honest, religions and truthful. The
tradition runs that fcinoe that time 1
(stint Nicholas pays a visit every |
Christmas niglit to all whom he
thinks worthy of his favors. He is
known altogether by the name Santa
Claus.?New York Erprets.
The Forged Will.
The following thrilling scene in
Court (says the Evening Poet) was related
by Samuel Warren, F. It. S.,
author of the M Diary of a late Physician,"
" Ten Thousand a Year," &c.,
i gentleman of New York city, ashav-l
ing occurred in his own practice:
A few years since a man of high '
resuectability was tried in England on
a charge of forging a will, in which it
was discovered he had an indirect in-'
torest to a large amount. Mr. War-!
-i . . . i
ren was me nssociare prosecuting attorney,
and the case was tried before J
Lord Dcnntat).
i he prisoner being arraigned and |
the formalities gone through with, the
prosecutor, placing his thumb over the'
seal, held up the will and demanded
at the prisoner if he had seen the testator
sign that instrument, to which he t
promptly answered ho had.
4i And did you sign it at his request!
:is subscribing witness ?"
" I did."
" Was it scaled with red or black
wax V *
"With red wax."
" Did you sc-e him seal it with red!
iv ax V
" 1 did."
44 Where was the testator when hoj
signed and sealed tl.is will?"
" In his bed."
44 Pray, how large a piece of wax i
lid he use ?"
u About three oi? four inches long."
44 \Vln> gave the testator this piece
.f wax ?"
44 1 did."
44 Where did you get it ?"
" From the drawer of Ids desk ."
44 How did ho light that piece of!
wax ?"
44 With a candle." i
"Where did the piece of candle'
201110 from !"
"I got it out of a cupboard in his
room.''
" How long was that piece of can-1
lie?"
"Perhaps four or fivo inches long."!
u Who lit that piece of candle f
"1 lit it."
" With what ?"
" With a match."
" Where did you got that match ?"
" On the mantle-shelf in the room." i
Ilerc Warren paused, and fixing liisj
large deep blue eyes upon the prison-!
jr, ho held the will up above his head,
lis thumb still resting upon the seal,
md said, in a solemn, measured tone : j
' Now,sir, u;Km your solemn oath,j

HUMORIST'S OLIO. I
Kentucky Rifleman.
The renown which Kentucky rifle-1
men have obtained for the precision |
and skill in handling the rifle, has be-1
come world-wide, and excited the admiration
and interest of the warriors
of other nations. In battle they have
stood as cool and collected, although
the first time in action,, as the oldest I
veterans of Europe; pouring their |
deadly tire with unerring aim.
I shot that officer, exclaimed a rifle- i
man, as he saw an ollicer fall at New 1
()rle>ms.
No, no-?T shot him, said his comrade
at his side.
J shot him in the right eye, replied j
uio lineman.
Ami I shot him in the left eye, was |
the res|K>nse.
After the brittle it was found that j
this otlieor had been shot in both eyes. !
Tins unerring precision can only be ob-1
tnined liv long practice and thorough
drilling. At the first settlement of this I
State, they wore constantly compelled j
to ho under arms, as it wore, to guard j
against the wild Indians and the nutr-j
derous tomahawk. As the father, so !
the children grow up, taught in the
earliest infancy possible, to poise the j
rille ami direct its aim. As ammunition !
was not always convenient to he had?
the father would dole out to the son a .
certain number of cartridges for his ri- 1
lie, for each one of which he must !
bring some sort of game or get a taste i
of hickory for every missing shot.
Many years ago, I was conversing J
with my father on (lie wonderful skill '
of tlie Kentnckians, when he related
the following anecdote:
I was out in the wilds of Kentucky I
some years ago, before the war, on a
surveying expedition, and had an op- ;
portunity of studying the character of
the early settlers for considerable length
of time. It became necessary lbr mo {
to stop a few days at a log tavern, and j
to while awav the time, 1 took my rifle !
and explored the wood for game, of i
which thero was an abundance. The {
landlord had a little son, alxint ton :
years of age, who accompanied me
with his rifle, and always had extremely |
good luck. On one occasion the fates
scented to be adverse to him, for j>or- j
reiving a squirrel on a very high 1
branch of ft tree, lie up with his rifle
and blazed away, and down came the ,
squirrel. The look of the dismay with '
which he viewed his game, I shall nev-1
er forgot. Dropping the butt of bis j
rifle on the ground, ho burst, into tears, i
In the utmost surprise, 1 inquired what
the. matter was. lie answered :
Daddy*11 lick inc.
Lick you !?what for ?
Hecansc I didn't hit him in the head.
I soothed him all I could, but flic j
day's pleasure was over. On return-1
ing to the tavorn I interceded for him
from the hickory, hut it was of no use: i
the application must be made, if only
u?r example.
No, no, stranger, if I let In in oft' I j
break a standing rule of or.r Srato. I ,
was never let on, ami what was good
for mo is good for him. He must
shoot right or put up with what he
gets.
The hickory was applied hut no
hones wero broken. Such training as
that, which was universal in those
parts, tell the secret of Kentucky rifle
shooting.
Skeleton of a Fashionable SermonThe
Knickerbocker Magazine furnishes
the following burlesque on the
dandittcd preaching of tho day. It is
a skeleton of a fashionable sermon :
Text.?"And ho killed tho fatted
Calf."
Introduction.?Not necessary to say
much nl?ont the Prodigal Son, for nearly
every wealthy family has a specimen
of its own, and needs no enhght
-
emnent f>n the subject. Divide the
subject into fiyo heads : ; l
lst.-^S'pdak ot the calf, and inform
your hearers how a calf should be fat- <
ted. Give him all the milk of two
cows, except a tin cup full no\fr and
then for the baby. Here you can make 1
some learned romarks about the milky
way, the belt of Jupiter, and Jaml
Ross's telescope.
2d.?lie killed the failed calf, but
,1... I...? T . I...
uoi oiuy ui? oui i[iiures nut tioecpuus j
and the leathers are profoundly silent'
on the question how he killed it. As j
this was more than a thousand years'
before the invention of gunpowder lirearms,
the presumption is that the old
man didn't shoot the critter, hut pitched
into him with a club?for clubs are
very ancient institutions.
3d.? Explain wh v the old gentleman,
instead of a calf\ didn't kill a shote?
make a one-horse barbecue and have a
real time of it.
4th.? Inform your hearers what the
word calf' means, when used in He
brew, Greek, Latin, Choctaw or Lockjaw.
5th.? Dwell pathetically upon the
melancholy degeneracy of the present
age, evinced by the fact that fathers,
now-a davfs, instead of treating a runaway
son to a u tatted call," are pretty
apt to treat him to a u hasty plate of
soup," made from the hide of the calf's
maternal projenitor.
Conclusion.?Throw in a little geology
; talk learnedly about '' graj*'u\ikc
" and " transition conglomerate. '
Wind up tho discourse with a most;,
eloquent, atfecting appeal to the consciences
of your hearers on the Durham
breed of cattle.
Pr.ai.v Talking. ? They have astraightforward
way of doing business.
iii Arkansas that is perfectly refresh-1
ing. A minister out there,a lew weeks J
ago. undertook to comedown on .slavery.
The next day one of the 44.Dea-!i

their taste any farther,'all that he hud;
to say was, that, geese still grew loath- j
