Masquerading in Boy's Clothes. A dispatch dated Little Hock (Ark.), July 10th, says: A Marshal of Jackson port, in this State, has just returned from Allen, ville, Missouri, having in hiscustody a young girl named Mollie Sher wood, who for intervals during the past two years, has been passing for a boy, under the name of Bill Henderson. About two years ago her parents, residing in Cape Gir ardeau, Mo., died. She was then thirteen years old, and her two brothers placed her out to work in hotel at Allenvule. Becoming tired of this employment she donned boy's clothiug, called herself Bill Henderson, and applied for and received a situation as post-boy to carry the mail to and from Allen vule. for one year, unsuspected, she fulfilled the functions of this post Then her sex was suspected; at AUeusville she was placed un der arrest and was compelled to assume the female garb. After this she tried working in a hotel as maid servant, but soon tiring of this, again resumed the trowsers and worked as a farm hand. Sub sequently she came to Augusta, in this State as a drover's assistant, and thence went to Jacksonport to work in a livery stable. After while the men and boys about the stable, believing her to be a woman began to call ber names, and, so she says, in order to get away from the place, she took certain horses Delonging to the stablemen and made off with them. The Marshal followed her and overtook her with the horses at A lien ville and arrested her on a charge of horse stealing. The people there knew her well, and were inclined to prevent the officers from arresting her. Pistols were drawn on both sines, but finally the girl went of ber own will with the Marshal. She is now in the Jacksonport jail awaiting trial for horse stealing. The girl is a pretty blonde, and during all her vicisitudes her virtue has never been questioned. The Lion's Fear of Man. Lfch- enstein says that African hunters avail themselves ot the circumstance that the lion does not spring upon his prey till he has measured the ground, and has reached the distance of ten or twelve paces, where he lies crouching upon toe ground, gathering mmseii t . .. . . ife for the effort. The hunters, he says, make it a rule never to fire upon the lion till he lies down at this short distance, so that they can aim directly at the head with the most perfect cer tainty. He adds that if a person has the misfortune to meet a lion, his only hope of safety is to stand perfectly still, even though the animal crouches to make a spring that spring will not be hazarded if the man has only nerve enoucrh to remain motionless as a statue, and look steadily at the lion. The animal Hesitates, rises slowly, retreats some steps, looking earnestly about him, lies down, again retreats, till having thus by degrees cot quite out of what he seems to feel as the magic circle of man's Influence, he takes to flight in the utmost haste.
