The following Dti.usiutf nml fcemingly incroiliblc narratlw Is from a lute French publication. It is neatly told, and will be read with Interest: Three brothers, nil humpbacked, and all nccurutely nlil: In iippwunct1, lived at Iletaneon. One of them ktllfd a nmu in a chance melly, but, not beliur taken on tin inomeut, the proutors oould only swear that ono of the lliicc brothers bud done the iled. Rather than put an Innocent man to death, the judge let the guilty one os- cipc, but, to avoid further Inconvenience of the kind, lie banished all from the prov ince. One settled In 1'uris, became rich tnd married; the others, alter nearly starv ing in England, returned and paid a visit to their fortunate brother. Tho master of the home was abroad when they knocked, nud tho poor wife was troubled more than a littte by the lslt. "My husband Is very jealous," bM the to them, while giving them something to eat. "You must go to the lartnercst quar ter of the town, and never come litre again; but I'll make your brother look to your wants." While ehe was speaking, she heard tier husband's knock, and cried out, follow mo If you vuluc your lives. She ordered the servant not to open the door until she should return, and then conveyed tho brothers down stairs uud locked them in the cellar. Her husband scolded lor beiug kept out so long, but a good dinner restored him to good humor, and ut night be went out to pay a visit. The wife then went down to the cellar, und there found tLo two poor brothers lend, nun lvlnf here, the other there. She acnt lor n strong Auvergoat, brought hint down stairs, showed hlin one of the corpses which she had previously tukcu out ol the cellar, nnd promised hiiu a Loulsd'or on hla return, after having thrown it into tho Seine. Ho made uo scruple about the matter, but popped tho body into the sack, took it to tho river. Returulog for bis ro word, the wife deputed bis clulm, ns the body jva3 still lying outside the cellar door. Here the stupified man saw what be firmly believed to bo the corpse bo bad thrown from tho bridge, and resigning himself to destiny he took the corpse the second time. Oorolug buck, be was terrified uad enroged by finding tbo twice-drowned oorpje knocking at bin-own 4pnr. JACKSONVILLE, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1SG0. "Arc time your trick, muter?" said he '-Ah, Monsieur Uhost, clever ns you ore, I'll settle you the third trial." So saying, he forced the poor husband Into the sack, carried htm to the same spot and affected the third discharge. This time he rriurnrd In triumph, for the wile, lenorant of her husband's fate. and having no more corpcs to remove, paid him twice what she had covenanted, and gae him a good glass of wine in the bargain. "Your good health, midamo," raid he; "you nrc belter than your promts?, but 1 earned It. I found the humpbacked rogue or Ills ghMl knocklntr nt the door ofirr I had thrown him In for the second time." "Oh, wretch I" cried the poor woman, "yoo have drowned my husband." AVhile she was screaming and he stand ing In nmiment, the gtns d'armes enter ed, secured both and sent them to prlwn. Xcxt day they were brought before the magistrate of the quarter and examined. The poor wife conotulcd nothing; the Au vcrgnat was not called on for an explana tion; and while both were nwaltlng sen tence of death, the three brothers with full life, but wltb very pale faces, were u.l.ercd into the roem. Some fishermen stationed war the bridge had saved, the three. The unmarried men had been only dead drunk in the cellar, and tho submersion, and the C0Dqatnt pulling ami hauling and tject mnt of wine and water, had recovered them from their drunken lethargy before the natural time. On their first appear aocc before the magistrate they could give no explanation of their visit to the river, nnd the husband had no Idea of the cause obli being seised on; but his wife's ex planation made all clear. The King bearing of the strango advrn turc, settlsol n pension on the unmarried men, but they were not to dwell within fifty miles of Paris, and the married man was not jealous for a year and a day alter his seizure and escape from the river. Iscnr.uixtTV l'rnoxinr.i. There win living on Martha's Vineyard an old man who bad never been ofTthc Island, ami the extent of bis knowledge was bounded by the confines of bis borne, lie bad becu told of a war between the North and the South, but as be has never beard the din of battle nor seen any soldiers, he considered Is a hoax. lie Is utterly unable to read, und Is Ignorant to the last degree. Ami- oelltnt story it told ot bis first und only day at school. He was quite a lad when u lady came to the district where his fath er resided, to teach school. He was sent, und a tbt teacher was classifying the school, be was called up lu turn and Inter rogated as to bit former studies. Of course be had to say tLut be lwd never been ut school and knew none of bis sellers. The school mistress gave him a sut on one side until she hud Onlthtd Hie prelim inary examination of the rest of the Khol art. She then ualll him to htr, nod drew ou the black board the Utter A, loll him what It was und wished him to remember bow it looked. He looked at it u moment aod. then inquired, (b stuttered) : "ll-b-o w do jou know Its A I" The teacher replied that when she wssa girl fclc Lad been to shool to an old genths man, who told her so. The boy eyid the A for a moment and then u.kedi "II bow did he know I" This was almoit a stunner, but the teacher suddenly recollected that lie had told her whin a boy be bad gone to school to o lady, who bad taught bltn that It was A. The boy cjod the letter a little longer, when be buist out with: "II b-ow did be know bnt she lied ?" The teacher could cot get over this ob stacle, ond the poor boy was sent borne as Incorrigible. The way In which words nrc often divi ded, when set to music, somelimes produce a rather ludicrous effi-ct. At a methodist camp meeting, once, some young ladies were beard to sing: "Oh fur a man ! Oh for n man I Oh for a tnan-sion lu the skies I" Some very attentive young men In the next tent immediately responded as follows: 'Ob for a gal I Oh for a gal I Ob for a gal 1 Ob lor a gal-Ion of old rye 1" On another occasion a cuoir sang, t0 tbe best of their ability; We'll catch tho ike! We'll catch the flee! We'll catch the flce-tlng hoars !" S.so. The I)ndon Saturday Review is teldora puzzled by slang phrases, but confesses itself unable to undersold a sen tence which it finds lu a recent American puper: "Everything being lovely, the goose was greatly elevated." Tbo aston ished critic says: "What or Whose goose was elevated, why it should bo elevated, what the process ol elevating a goose con sists in, and the councctloa between tbo el evation of the goose ond the general loveli ness of tbiog, ore all points on which we can throw no Hgbt.
