So one day he traveled away from Teheran, and after many strange adventures, arrived in London, bringing his carpet with hint, and fully prepared to sit upon the Foreign Office, which he supposed to be a person, till he was satisfied. Lord Palmerston was «Secretary of State for Foreign Adairs at that time, and took the thiifg good-humoredly ; but Mr., Hammond, the Under Secre tary ot .“>tate, who is a sharp tempered gentleman and already high up in of fice, was for calling a policeman. The practice of “sitting upon a man,” as it is called, universally prevails in Persia, and it is not easy to deal with. Still it may be dealt with, and Sir John McNeil, a shrewd old Scotch di plomatist, who was once accredited to the Persian Court, contrived to get rid of a Persian who had tried to sit upon him by a rather clever device. At New Year, which is kept as a great festival in Persia, religious men dicants go about, not so much asking for alms as insisting upon a fixed .«urn. 1 hey generally tax a foreign embassa dor rather highly, and one of them, a dervis, demanded an extravagant sum from Sir John McNeil. The «Scotch diplomat offered to compromise with him tor any reasonable amount, but his oiler was refused, and, as he would not give more, the dervis proceeded to sit upon him. He established him self in Sir John’s garden, just before his study windows, and every now and then during the day and whenever he woke up at night, this dervis set up a horrible hullabaloo, and blew a cracked trumpet as if the judgment da.v was conn*. Sir John, who did not like to have Ids rest disturbed in this way, determined to put a stop to tin* dervis’ tricks, and eject him by force ; but he was solemnly warned by the Persian autlmritie that it Would be dangerous to lay hands upon tlx* dervis. “(let rid of him if you can,” said they, laughing, as they are wont to do at a minister’s perplexity, “but do not touch him.” “Very well,” said Sir John, dryly ; and hi* sent for a bricklayer. “Build me a wall round that howl ing beggar in my garden,” said Sir John to the bricklayer, “and then roof it in Tib* dervis looked on composedly while th<* wall rose slowly around him, and made more noise than ever; but when lie perceived that they really meant to shut him up in a tomb alive lie jumped over the lower part of the wall and rushed away like a maniac. Sir John was probably tin* only Eu ropean who ever got the better of a dervis.—X Herald. F ounder in H ouses .—Benjamin \V. Wood writes to the Southern Cul tivator: Many years ago 1 learned a cure for founder in horses, which is so simple, and has proved so successful in my hands, that 1 send it to von, thinking it may lie of service to some of your rentiers. Clean out the bot tom of the loot thoroughly, hold up firmly in a horizontal position, and pour in, say a table-spoonful of spirits of turpentine, if the cavity of the hoof will hold that much, if not, pour in w hat it w ill hold without danger of running over ; touch the turpentine with a red hot iron (tlii is will set it on tire); Hold the hoof firmly in this posi tion until it all burns out. Care must be taken that none runs on the hair of the ho<d', lest tlx* skin be burned. If all the feet an* affected, burn turpen tine in all of them. Relief will speed ily follow , and the animal will I k * ready for service in a short time. I once ap plied this remedy to a horse that had been foundered twenty-foitT hours be fore 1 saw him, and he was promptly relieved. In another case where the animal could hardly be induced to move, hi> sufferings were so great, ami h<> was treated in the same manner as soon as his trouble was discovered, and less than an hour afterwards was hitch ed to a buggy and driven twenty-live miles the same day, all lameless disap pearing after he had traveled a few miles. Last .Sunday several teams loaded with Government stores from Fort Klamath arrived in this city, and un loaded at the depot of the Oregon and California railroad. Shortly after, one of the teamsters, an acquaintance of ours, came to the office and privately asked us to repair to tlie depot with him, which we proceeded to do. When we arrived there he pointed to a cask, which, on close inspection proved, to lie notiiing more than a common whisky barrel, marked “Society of Natural History, Washington, D. C’.” We then wanted to know what was the meaning of this, when our friend informed us that the Imrrel contained nothing less than the body of the Mo doc chief, preserved inspirits, and was being shipped through this way osten sibly as Government stores to prevent comment by newspapers and the pub lic in general. Our informant then proceeded to give the whole story, as la* was present at the execution and had remained at Fort Klamath from the time the Indians were hung until he left for Roseburg with his team and horrible freight. It appears Jack’s body was nexer buried after the head was severed from the trunk ; in fact, if it had not been for the superstitious fears of tlie Indians concerning their dead relatives which cause them very often to risk their lix'es in time of war to carry their slain from the field of battle, and apprehensions entertained as to how it would I k * received by the public mind, the body would never have been buried. As it was the Mo doc chief only rested in his grave about ton or twelve hours. Tt was dug up before midnight on the day he was hung by soldiers detailed for that pur pose, who filled up the grave and left it as though it had never boon dis turbed. The body was immediately carries! to tin* Fort, and the head taken off and put up for shipment East. A few days after this the remainder of the body was placed in the barrel as already stated, and started for the same city for which the head was in tended. We have reason to believe the story a< told us is true in every particular. We have since questioned other team sters who came from Fort Klamath with our informant, and they corrobo rate the story and say it had become a subject of common conversation when they left. We did not see the body ; nor would we have felt any bet ter had we been allowed to contem plate the horrible s|>ectacle of the head less I mh I v of a dead Indian preserved in alcohol. But we have no right to think that it was not there.— Plain- deaL r. T he L augii of a W oman .—A wo man has no natural gift more bewitch ing than a sweet laugh. It is like the sound of flutes on the water. It leaps from her in a clear sparkling rill; and the heart that hears it feels as if bath ed in the cool exhilarating spring. Have you ever pursued an unseen fu gitive through trees, led on by a fairy laugh, now there, now lost, now found ? We have and we are pursuing that wandering voice to this day. Some times it comes to us in the midst of can* or sorrow, or irksome business, and then we turn away the evil spirit of mind. How much we owe to that sweet laugh ! It turns prose to poetry; it flings sunshine to Howers, over the darkness of the wood in which we are traveling; it touches with light even our sleep, which is no more than the image of death, but is consumed with dreams that are the shadows of im mortality, F rom a New York telegram of the 1st instant we get this: The remains of John C. Ileen m ar rived yesterd ly in charge of Jim C’uis- sack. A few days before going West he felt a great deal lietter; but I k * became worst* in passing on to Californi i, where he hoped to improve his condi tion. On’ the morning of hi- death, Cui-sack asked him if he would have a cup of tea. He took it, and shortly afterward was seized with hemor rhage ; Cuissack gave him some salt, and 1 leenan went to sleep. They were in a car on tlu* Union Pacific II lilroad, near Green River station, at the time. ¡Shortly afterward one of the passen gers said, “lie is not asleep; he is dead !” which proved to be a fact.
