The house, an imposing and massive structure, occupied one of tho many beautiful and picturesque hills that' formed the lovely western land­ scape view of Snowdon. It was ele­ gant and tasteful in every detail, and furnished throughout in the most sumptuons and luxurious manner. For generations this beautiful estate had been in possession of tho Stanleys. The present master was sole representa­ tive of the Stanley family. An un­ timely visit to a Southern city had, six years before, deprived him'of father and mother. An only child, he had been their pride and idol, no wish of •his heart had they ever refused. Edu­ cated in an Eastern college, ho had, after the death of his parents, pursued his travels alone upon the Continent The return of the youthful heir of Cloudland was anxiously looked for­ ward to by those who remembered his gay, laughing face, genial disposition, frank and easy address. When he camo,, how changed was he from tho boy they rememl>er««d and loved—a cold, haughty, taciturn man, shunning society, evading the boyhood friends, living in the great house alone with servants, communicating with no one, if we except an occasional conver­ sation with Mrs. Dawson, his house­ keeper, and since he seemed so much to desire it he was by his old associ­ ates, in its strictest sense, let severely alone. Two days previous to the opening of our story Stanley had been seated in his library before a small escritoire; he was deeply engrossed in tlie pages of old letters—a look of intense and un­ utterable sadness upon his handsome face, a deep, unfathomable, far-away look in Jiis dark e^es. After awhile be* arranged the papers carefullv, and, replacing them, closed the cabinet, sat buck, and seemed lost in a labyrinth of bitter thought At length be arose and sauntered across the room with a quick, restless stride, seating hinisgjf near a window facing Snowdon. Presently from an inner pocket he produced a small case, and opening it displayed the portrait of a very beauti­ ful weman, with fair patrician features, overshadowed with a wealth of gold brown hair, and large liquid blue eyes. He garexl earnestly into the lovely face, the melancholy look upon his own deep­ ening the while, and then he took from .tie pocket a letter, this time the note already familiar to us as the one written by Miss Langtry. “Is she angel dr demon," ho mutter­ ed, “to cross my life path at every turning ? And yet it is best to heed her counsel, though it comes in tho form of a command.” An hour later ho sent his coachman to meet the guest who, Miss Langtry’s note had apprised him, was coming. * Instinctively he felt the coming, in­ terview would be a trying one; one that would require every manly element in his nature to assert itself. He felt in his heart that the girl was justified in coming to him, and with e jual force the knowledge assumed form that he was powerless to comply with any demand she might make. ' He had never met Lyra Doone, and though dreading an interview he await­ ed her appearance with feverish impa­ tience. • It was late, when the carriage rolled up the broad avenue. He had instructed Mrs. Dawson to meet hia guest and extend to her the hospitality, of the mairsicn, a fragile, diuntv little creature with a queer blend'iag of timidity and determination in her manner. “I am not at all tired. I thank yon, nor do I require refreshment," she re­ sponded to Mrs. Dawson's kindly ex­ tended conrtewv. “I desire an interview ' snowy opera cloak a hryeiy interlaced am grieved at wreath of roeebuda IBim of tha the unhappy--------------------------------------------circumsianixe----valley. -----’ • requiring a visit from you to Cloudland : She tat tet her work fall upon the table, to be formal in its nature.” ■' and, folding her hands, leaned forward “I thank you for kindly taking pro- 1 with a half-supprc«*ed sigh And a cadence iu introducing a theme that . triunulously worded “Well, stotai?" must certainly be an painful to you as — *------------1------ T ’--------- -sto myself.

The combined capital of the great firm of the Rothschilds is estimated bv persons pretending to know (although nobody but themselves can really know anything about it), at no less a sum than $ 1,000,000,(KX), fully one-half of which has been gained within twentyfive years. Their opportunities for making money,, whiah are almost un­ limited, are perpetually Unproved. Their credit being of the highest, they might continue their immense banking business infinitely with little or no capital. It ia hardly more than a hun­ dred years since the founder of the family and its fortunes, Mayer Anselm, of very poor Jewish parentage, was a humble clerk in a Hanover counting­ house. He afterward establ shed him­ self as a banker in Frankfort. Tbo discreet investment of tsi.OUU.OOO of silver, deposited with him in 1814* by the Elector William, on the invaeion of his territory by the French, was the source of the enormous wealth of the firm. It was depo»ikHL<ilbout inter­ est, but Rothschild paid int*ro»t regu­ larly, and returned ths capital to the Elector’s son seven.’seu years later The Rothschilds hsre never Iw-en sb rich as now* 1, but they have nothing likt the power they on ?o had, probably be­ cause ths capital of the world has m> rapidly incrr**ed.

Two young girls were walking arm­ in-arm alo&g a winding country road at the close of a mild October afternoon. Fair as a 111v and sweet as a cherry were the epithets that would have best described their respective charms. The tallest, whose name was Alice Vincent, wm a blonde, with a smooth white skin that blended the - exquisite tints of the blush rose and cream lily, deep bluedreamy eyes and golden hair that re­ vealed rather than concealed with its classic coils the contour of her shapely head, which was bare to the kisses of the late sunbeams that yet lingered like loitering schoolboys along the way. Tho old house, hidden >n a growth of morning-glories, a few yards behind her at the bend in the road, wm her home, whence she had sauntered with , her friend, who had taken tea with her and was now returning to the village where she lived. Many a bashful youth secretly sighed for the privilege of the sunbeams to kiss sweet Alice’s rounded cheek or burnish­ ed tresses, but not one of them dared to summon courage to . approach in any lover-like fashion this graceful and .^beautiful creature, who seemed cast in a finer mould than they, and made of purer clav. The maiden at her side was neither blonde nor brunette, but that charming mixture of both that pro­ duces soft blue e/es and hair Tn gloea and hue the chestnut, when the shell Divides threefold, to show the fruit within. If the rural beaux were shy of Alice Vincent, they were not all timid of Eliz­ abeth Adams, whose sunny face and sweet smile had made every unmarried man and slender stripling for miles around her bond-slaves in the golden fetters of love. Cupid attended her at all places, and at all seasons, and sent an arrow into some rustic heart with every glance of her love-lit eyes. . She smiled on all and favored all alike, and though every man she smiled on would have willingly laid down his life for her, yet not one among them could take to himself the coveted honor, and say, “I am her tavored suitor.” Like the great Elizabeth of old, she still walked in "maiden meditation, fancy free,” and smiled on all because she cared for none. _ "I will not go any farther with you now,” said Alice as they reached a curve in the road that hid her >b ae from sight “Don’t forget to meet me at tlie old mill to-morrow night nt dusk, to go and have our fortunes told,” said Elizabeth as she kissed her friend good-bye. And Alice retraced her steps under the soughing branches, holding her Sink-flowered skirt daintily out of the ust and wondering’, girl-like, what her fortune would be. In twenty-four hours the autumn weather changed friim the mild atmos­ phere in which the breath of summer yet lingered to the bleak wind and chil­ ly air of approaching winter. The arms’ of the old mill went round swiftly against n thickly clouded sky, and the dark woo<b that crept almost up to it shook and shivered and sighed mysteriously in the gloomy dusk, aa Alice, enveloped in a long cloak and Ample hood that hid her golden hair, waited for her friend, fearfully eyeing the black shadows among tlie’ trees in the meantime, and starting nervously at the groaning of the branches, or the rustling of the wind over the withered grass and fallen leaves. The snapping of dry twigs underfoot announced the approach of Elizabeth, who was likewise cloaked and hooded from the chill evening air and the rain the laden clouds might bring. Tlie house of the wise woman who wm wont to tell the fortunes of all die maidens for miles around, stood a little over a mile from the old windmill, and on the edge of a stagnant pond, where frogs splashed in and out of the green water and creaked all night on the muddy bank. At the back of the house was a dense wood, which sent out advance-guards of beeches, that drooped, their king branches on the mown,- roof and creaked dismally to ami fro over the phingles on stormy nights. A few yards away from the door stood a dead cherry-tree, the skeleton rainbleached limbs of which gleamed ghast­ ly through the gathering gloom against the lowering heaven, and in the hollow trunk of wnich a venerable owl had made his home for years. As the two girls approached the bouse they saw the red gleam of a blazing wood-fin- through the uncurtained win­ dow. and beheld grotesque shadows waving to and fro across the floor, like witches in a wild dance for the amu-icment of the old fortune-teller, who nt in a high-backed chair by the fire, with a great grey cat curled up in her lap.

Although tlie wish was a secret one, yet it brought a vivid blush of maiden shame 'o Elizabeth's lovely checks, for it concerned the handsome surveyor, Spencer Grave*, who boarded at 'her mother's and who had taken her for moonlight drives and walked home with her from church every Sunday evening since he came at midsummer, much to the discomfiture of the rustic swains. An ominous silence fell upon the circle as the old woman, peered into the cup. The candle at her side spluttered and flared, the fire crackled and smoked, and the firc-dogH thrust their hideous faces out of the flames and grinned like her familiar demons, while the wind howled in the wood without, and the rain splashed and pattered against the tiny window panes and flashed into fretwork of diamonds against tlie dark­ ness of the starless night. So prolonged and profound was the silence that the girls started and re­ pressed little cries of terror when the fortune teller began. ••I hoc a tall man whom you love .and who loves you in return. ’ I sec many flowers, an’d a minister with an open book, and a lonely place where two roads meet, and ’the willows grow, where you will go before a year has passed away, and you will lw very hap­ py there, for there isaio trouble around you. This means that vou will be mar­ ried in less than a year?’ Elizabeth blusher!, and dimpled, and smiled, for this meant she would marry the young surveyor for whom she had wished. Alice passed her fateful cup, and the wise woman peered into it, frowned, ebook her head, and said slowly: "I see death, the skeleton at the top of the cup, and below him ground thick with headstones, and a long dark pro­ cession bearing a coffin in tneir midst You will not live tho year out, Alice Viupont" Naturally of a timid nnd sensitive disposition, Alice grew faint and sick at the picture thus revealed to her of her young life blighted in its bloom, and was glad to pay tlie old woman as quickly as possible and find herself standing upon the threshold with hcr cloak folded about her, prepared, with Elizabeth, to brave the darkness and the warring elements of tho cold autumn night. No friendly star shone between the black clouds to guide them, the rain fell steadily, and the roads were ankle­ deep in jxud. Through the wild rush of wind and rain they stumbled on, cling­ ing to each other’s hands, guessing the way and hardly daring to breathe, less some spectral shape should suddenly rise up in the darknres before them. Tho night journey held greater terrors for Alice than for her companion, for, perhaps, the promised death lurked in the -Aodergrowth along the way, or fol­ lowed with noiseless steps behind her, and would leap upon her at any min­ ute, freezing the blood in her young heart forever. But at last they reached her home, and, frightened, wet, and weary, were glad to hurry off to bed, and lose, if possible, the memory of the night's ad­ ventures in the oblivion of sleep. Eliz­ abeth was soon wrapped in sweet slum­ ber on the soft pillows and dreaming of a happy future of wedded bliss, but, though aching in every limb, Alice lay awake srith sleepless, starting eyes un­ til the grey light of the rainy morning stole in between the curtains. From that ill-omened evening in the fortune -teller's hut, Alice saw, sleeping or waking, the coffin and the open Cve, for never for an instant did she ibt the ol d woman's vision. Even when a gallant iover came to woo, she turned a dual ear to his impassionwl pleading, saying only that she waa to l*> the bride of death, and must devote her tew remaining days on earth to fitting herself for heaven. Meantime Elizabeth, also patting all her faith in the magic cup, gave full rein to hcr dreams and hopes, built bar i castles in Spain and allowed herself to love the young surveyor with all the strength of her tender woman's.heartf -tl—-nigut -he went to Here her fortune told. ~ Whether fate mixed the fortune of those two girls that wild autumn night is more than I can tell, being only a chronicler of the material anti not the spiritual; but it is safe to say that it is not well 'to seek to lift the curtain that hides to-morrow from to-day, for it is a merciful and wise Providence that veils futurity from our eyes. A Soft Thing. Two old friends met on a train be­ tween Dallas and Fort Worth. After the usual greeting one of them asked: "Isn't Sam Sweetliepipes living in Dal­ las?" "Is he a glazier?” “Yes, he Is a painter and a glazier.” "He is getting rich fast." "Getting rich fast, is ho? Running a monte bank, I suppose.” "No, ho has got a better thing than that.” "City official?” "No he belongs to a fire company, and when a fire breaks out he runs along and wakes up the people with a stick.” "I don't see how there is any money to be made in that" "Ho wakes tho people up by tapping at their windows with a -stick, and he manages to break all the panes of glass within half a mile of the fire, and next day he is called on to put them in again at 56 cents a piece.

It is related that when St Patrick landed in Ireland in the fifth oentury. having overcome the hostility of the savage islanders, he proceeded to-in­ struct them in the doctrines of Chrutianity. But in vain did be endeavor to ex­ plain to them the doctrine of the trinity in unity. His untutored hear­ ers failed to comprehend his reasoning till, plucking a trefoil to nerve as an il­ lustration, he inquired of them: "Is it not as powible for the Father, Son, and Holy Gnodt as for these three leaves to grow upon a single stalk?” This argu­ ment, according to the legend, imme­ diately convinced the Irish, who yielded to St Pntrick’s efforts for their conver­ sion. The shamrock was thenceforth dedicated to the saint and became the national cognizance. It is somewxt un­ fortunate that this pretty story' is not to be found in the lives of the great saints of Ireland, but it is still more unfortu­ nate that it is amiin impossible to deter­ mine which ia the true shamrock. Ac­ cording to tlie best authorities, however, the honor is due to the Black Nosuch or Medicago or to the Dutch clover. Both these plants are worn St. Patrick’s-Day and are help to the true shamrock.— Chambers' Journal. WUb to tnfora the penile of Nashville and vicinity that they have purduwrd the C. L.

Ky., correspondent, writing tn the Louisville Courur-Journal, says: TKo Courier-Journal of to-day conexperience in the saltpeter cave near this place- Believing that an accurate, description of the beauty of this wonder of western Kentucky would be of some interest, your oorresj>ondent has posswwal himself of many facts in regard to it. and from personal observation can giv<- an accurate description. Situated not more than a mile from Princeton, in the remote comer of tho farm of<Mr. R. B.Ratcliff, is the entrance of what is generally known as "Saltpe­ ter cave.” Although the cave po^swws considerable local reputation,our knowl­ edge of it is sc little tn keeping with its extent and grandeur that the writer of this Hm deemed it but a duty to record what he conceive* to be the greatest ■wonder of its kind in western Kentucky. •Your correspondent not long ago, m company with several friends, made a day’s visit in partly exploring theise hu­ mid caverns. We reached the cave about 10 A. M., and found the descent easy. At foe entrance of the cave there are’ three passages. - We chore the middle one. After passing over a diffi- i cult and tortuous route 6f fifty yards on all fours, we found ourselvarin’a cham­ ber of considerable dimensions. The floor of this was as smooth and clean as if the roller and broom had been but Recently applied. At this place, how­ ever, we could find no evidence of ealcarions formations. At the end of this chamber we came across what is known as the "Devil's Coal-hole." This was an entrance that looked like a dormer window propped up before us,and which could only be approached by a side-wav difficult of descent, and down which few of us cared to venture but one or two, however, did look in, and, seeing no Lottom, retreated in haste. Wu now commenced bur first climbing, and,with little difficulty, reached another cham^creonsiuenvoiy higher than the first It was here that we encountered the firat bats, which seemed not in the least dis­ turbed. At tho end of this high-domed and sparkling chamber, which dimly presentml its beauties by the fquble light of our candles, the most notable object we saw "during the trip unvailed itself , to our gaze.

There was an opening in the top, through which, by clambering on the derbies beyond, we could look. We found it to be not only hollow, but its walls to be a mere crust—not more than an inch or two thick. We now began to appreciate that we were entering a more humid atmosphere. We could hear the tinkling of the drops of water as they fell about us. and away in the distance could faintly hear the noire of cascades and murmur of streams pent tip between huge rocks, -and tor­ mented into foam, and then aftecting their cacape down some rocky precipice, and spreading into pools below.

We still have a virtual monopoly of thia article but in the impply of wheat we have diHtinctly fallen behind. Formerly we commanded tbe mar­ kets of the world hr producers of wheat cotton, petroleum nndjoliacco. These couHtiturcd three-toi ‘ uf our ex-/ ports. Foreign counties Id not do a ithout them—could I not out their portion which produced in ex­ cess uf our own requirements. It ap­ pears that they can do without ou»- cot­ ton, the potential supply from Egypt lieing limited only by the facilities for irrigation which can be furnished by cupital. and which will certain I v be furnished if England retain her hold upon that country—as there is every prospect of her doing. India also has great capabilities for cotton growing, and has l»een deficient hitherto only tn means of transportation. These are now beiug supplied, not rapidly, perh.ips, but steadily. The Russian pro­ duction of tietroleiim is il.creasiug in Hpitvofall the obetaclea which u low stage of civilisation puts in ita wuy. The article being almndaut in Russia it is only a question of time when the fa­ cilities for producing and transporting it will hr as perfect ita tliey are in. the United States. There will be pipe line and letineiirs and whatever else ia needed io mak«* as good and as cheap mi article as ours. Three of our four monopolies are either doomed or tliieulened. A world-wide revolution of commerce is taking, akin to that which followed the opening of the Sure Canal—a revolution not to our advantage. What are we going t<f do HlMllil ii t Tire first fact that strikes us is that our compel itoia in the production of wheat aud cottuu are really the only •‘pauper laborers*’ that we are ever luought into commercial contact with The IMian ryot aud the Egypt a.» fel­ lah work for less than other laborer* in the world, except possibly the lowest cIhnwh of Chinese iu their native land. No Chinamen Id the United States ever work" tor such pitilul compensation. It follows that ti e American farm* r mid plainer aie competing with thu cheapest labor in the wuild, and there is no way to protict them. We can neither "tariff” nor mob the paupers of India and Egypt. We hare got to face the fact that w heat sells in Liverpool at 8Ls. per quarter aud cotton 5d. per pound. There is no certainty that prices will lie as hifli next year as they are now. The chances are that they w ill be lower ten years from Dow than tliey are to-day, since the facilities winch have given us the advantage in the past are getting into the bauds ot our rivals, the gain which these coun­ tries have made by the mere introduc­ tion ot law aud older is very great Nobody can compute the commercial value of justice, when substituted for rapine ip semi-barlmiiuns country, but everybody knows that it is immense. India ha* secured this advantage, and Egypt will secure it soon. Law and order pave the way for railroads aud labor saving machinery aud capital in every fuim. We have got to compete with these countries in the production of wheat ana cotton. There is uo getting around that fact. If tliey can furnish these staples cheaper than we can they will take the trade away from us. It is use­ less to speculate on the gold supply or to discuss the silver question aa a fac­ tor in making prices. Whether tbe gold supply be more or leas, whether silver be coined or not coined, the su­ periority of the Indian aud Egyptian producers, if they have a superiority, remains the same. Whether wheat sells *n Liverpool at $1 per bushel, or at 12 or at 50 cent*, tbe relative posi­ tions of the rival producers are un­ changed. There is do way under heav­ en to recover our superority if we have lust it, or io retain it if we have uot yet lost it, but to sell at lower prices. Thia 1 am told cannot be done because tbe farmers and planters are making no profit uow, are hardly getting back the cost of produutior, and in many cases nut even that. But there is one way to sell at lower prices, and that ia to repei 1 the export duty on wheat aud cotton. "But there ure do export du­ ties,” aay* some startled farmer, or planter or sliippei: “the Constitution expressly forbids export Julies.’ Yea; but what is the ditterence between pay­ ing 3b per cent, duty on what you send abroad aud paying 80 per cent, on what you get in .exchange! ouppoae A and B are trading wheat tor cloth.

Mun Cotterell pulls her up, orders her peremptorily into a hall-chnir, and droning • buttuu-hook from her own pocket pro­ ceeds to do up the high foreign boots. “There! Now turn slowly round, and let me see that you are all right."

"Tell me, Mary," she njkcd. as they -walked down the garden on their way to Mrs. Charleaworth's tennis portys “will that -dreadful red-haired engineer be there— you know; the man who is so stupid and ffoucke?” “Sure to be,” said Mary dryly. “He’s de• voted to Eva Charles worth." “i’oqr girl; I pity her," observed Mdlle.

Estelle s French mother had been forced; -when hardly more than a child, into a mar­ riage with a wealthy Englishman, who had "treated her with neglect nnd brutality, and finally-deserted her.

One evening when a few gentlemen. ar:ong whom was Mr. Seward, hail met in the executive chamber without official business, and were telling of thfl past, tlie President said: "Seward, you never heard, did you, howl earned my first dollar?" “No," said Seward. . ‘ “Well," replied he, “I was about 18 years ot age, and belonged, an you know, to what they call down South tho Bombs.- People who do not own land and slaves are nobody there. But we hud succeeded in raising, chiefly by mv labor, sufficient product, as I thought, to justify me in taking it down the river to sell. After much persuasion I had got, the consent of mv mother to go, and constructed a flat­ boat large 'enough to take the few bar­ rels of things we had gathered down to New Orleans.

He is part ofk the body politic of the Republic. He is firmly rooted and can­ not be moved. He is hare to stay, and any attempt to disturb him or io excite his fears as to his right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiffess is nothing less than a crime. A question teach­ ing the negro,.like any other, must be considered from this common sense standpoint, and everf suggestion for its bolutiou must be subjected to the probing und searching "What good?" 1’re.udice must not be allowed a voice in its solution, and passion must be ex­ cluded from counsel. The negro will uot consent to his own deportation. The Southern planters, toe, would not, if they could, consent to ik nor to any agitation of it, because it nnsettles and unhinges the labor that is more profit­ able free tlian it ever was or could be in the days of slavery. The negro is more intelligent now than then, and therefore more valuable because a bet­ ter, a closer and more skillful worker. Deportation is not, for these reasons, to be considered. We must, therefore, deal with the negro and treat ot him with the full understanding that wo cannot getfrid of him. His commercial value, supplementing his rights under the Federal aud .State constitutions, says cold chisel to split it.

In the ecstasy of love we spend all our change buying them candy, ice-cream, and oysters, taking them to the theater aud out driving. Admiration for the gentler sex is one of the charaeterLtics of the Breakjaet Table editorial mind. Btill woman has one drawback in our worshipful eyes. She ffas not learned to recognize the rights of others in public.. In a crowd she frequently Incomes a—shall we say it?—nuisance. Not a great, blus­ tering, get-out-of-iny-way nuisance, such as a male ma i becomes on 00 casion, but sail a nuisance, allmit a sweet and comely one. A fragile woman with a market bosket can create more desolation in a stroet-car in one little minute than a yellow dog in a flock of sheep beneath tho rural glimpses of the moon. She is agony—a despair— a sweet violet turned sour. She is a complete edition of masculine discom­ fiture, bound in sweetness nnd lifjht That is truly so. But it is on the aidewalk that woman becomes ludicrously aud wonderfully, albeit sweetly anil deeoroualv, a nuisance. One nurse­ maid, with a baby-carriage, can block tho way with more ease than a load of hay; and she does it with such an air of irrefragable comjiosnre, such imper­ turbable complacency, as would cover with tho mantle of shame the bravest efforts of a setting hen by moonlight. Then there is the woman who inquires the way. We meet her every day, and she’s a dandy. When you tell her nnd tell her correctly she says that Mr. Soand-So informed her to the contrary '; and right thoroughly is she disposed to get up a wrangle. The woman who is afraid she will be run over at the crossing is 'another character. She starts to cross, and then happens to. see a wagon approaching about six blooks away. Baek she rashes to the curb and wait! for the vehicle to pass. But it turns up a cross street before it, reaches her, and she again puts out of part with all sails set and every pros­ pect of a prosperous voyage. But meantime auotln-r wagon approaches from another direction, and—horror of horrors!—it is onlv half a square away. Back she flies to tha friendly curb, her heart palpitant with dainty throbs of unutterable iright. But tbe approach­ ing engine of destruction begius io slacken ita speed. She hesitates a moment, and then again weighs anchor. Out she goes again and crosses the street just in front of the horse's nose. The noise of her bustle and the flutter of her riblions scare the horse, and he runs away. The worst of all, however, is shown when three ladies take the whole sidewalk. Tho busy business man tries to get, post He dodges to the right, then to the left, apd, seeing an onening, tries to go■ between. He stumbles and balks, finally steps on their dresses and gets a blowing.

Before the pretty bride could answer, tho widow’s eyes grew dangerous, and swinging slowly her large fan, she murmured: "Surely, my dear Mrs. X., you should be more than satisfied, for you know antumitias are all the rage."

I have a good stock to select from, but of course the first to take advantage of this sale will have the first chance for good bargains. And all goods sold on time will be sold at our regular prices, and no discount. The object of this cut in prices is to reduce iny stock as low as possible by spring, and at the same time to raise a little money, which I stand in need of; and am in hopes that parties who are owing me past due notes or accounts will take the hint and come to the front.

The speaker was a tail, good-looking young fellow, dressed in the picturesoe cos­ tume of the shepherds of the Albano Moun­ tains, but his flkndsome features were spoilt by an expression of petulant ill-humor. The girl whom ho addressed os Lucia sighed deeply, but sire did not raise her eyee nor make any answer. "Is this your lost word?” continued tho young man. “You mean to say you prefer that, wretched foundling—that miserable, namolcrs cripple, tome?” "Sec here, Enrico: what you ask me is impossible! How can 1 turn out of doors a helpless child of six years old? Who is to feed him? Who is to take care of him?" "But we are poor people. Why are we to keen a stranger's chilo?" Lucia lifted her head eagerly; 4he “we" sounded encouraging. "Dear Enrico, you shall have no expense. He shall not t cost you a farthing. The English signora who taught me to knit has prondsed to buy all I do. I shall earn a good deal, I am sure. See, I have already begun a stocking, and th- work goes on— Ss on; whether I watch the goats,or the p upon the fire, I knit and knit. Look, how fast it goes!" aud Lucia made the steel needles glitter in the sunlight. “Bah! That is nonsense, and the Eng­ lish lady will very likely never come again. Those foreigners ar* not to be relied on. Besides, when we are married you will hove more to do. There will be my clotties to see to; and why are you to be tuuidled with a foundling? He is no relation of yours.” "True, but he is almost like a lirother. Did not mv dear mother find him lost among tho hills four year* ago? Did she not take care of him as if he were her own? Has he not always shared our food and our home? And now that she is dead—she that «M his best friend, always patient when 1 was angry, always gentle when I was se­ vere—now, before she has lain a month in her cold grave, I am to turn out the poor child sho rescued from death? No, Enrico mio, such a thing is not possible. As for loving you, ah! you know------" Here tho poor girl's voice broke, and she said no more. But Enrico did not seem convinced either by her glowing words or her silent tears. He made no attempt to console her; he stood there frowning, and kicking the loose­ stones of the road, looking just what he was, a bad-tempered, selfish fellow. He hud been brougbtknp with Lucia, and had loved*her after his own fashion ever since they were children—that is to aay. ho had tyrannized over her himself, but had fobght her battles with others—and Lucia had re­ paid bis championship with the deepest love and admiration of her little heart. Enricobad taken to spending his winters in Borne, picking up what he could get as a model, and returning to bis native moun­ tains during the summer months. His af­ fection for Lacia hod become a habit, though, as she was poor, he looked upon himself M a very magnanimous young fel­ low for offering to marry her, considering bow many girls were f*4rinated by his per­ son and mauners. .But m to the cripple, the little orphan that Lucia's mother nad been silly enough to adopt, that was quite another matter. He wasn't going to be ■addled with him, a useless creature, that could never be turned to account. Just then tho poor child who was the cause of the lover* estrangement came hop­ ping and wriggling toward them. One leg dangled, perfectly useless, but he had u crutch, ana by means of this and his un­ injured leg he managed to get over the ground tolerably fast. Eurico saw the child coming, but took no notice; he only kicked the stones more viciously than before. "Take care, Enrico!” cried Lucia, anx­ iously; "you very nearly hit his head." Rhe spoke too late. Enrico had sent a •harp flint full into the little cripple's face dt struck his lip and made him cry. With­ out a word of regret or farewell, Enrico taru-xi on his heels and atrodc quickly two creatures he had wounded so cruelly wept in each other's arms. Little Tlpino's face was cut, and the smart wm <h*rd to bear, but what wm that compared to the pain in the true and loyal heart of Xucia? “Do not cry,” whispered Pipino, forget lul of his own hurt, and stroking Lum’s face with hi* small, thin hands, "do not cry. He is a bod man. Whan I grow big -•nd strong I will kill him!* “No, clear little one, you must not say such thing*. It is very wicked to be rewngeful. Enrico did not mean to hurt "Yes, he did. He told me yesterday he should like ,to wring my neck. He would -have boxed my ears too, if Nicolo Prato “Hush. Pipino!” said Lucia, angrily. •Little boys know nothing about men. Nicolo Pntto can box people's ears too, I “Ah, but not ours." said Pipino, with such a comic expression that Lucia could not help siuiliug and blushing. She knew very well why big, rough Nicolo Prato was so kind to the little cripple, but aho tried to plate of soup, and then off to ■ome, and I task it-a*l, because I knew 4faere would be more fur you.” “That w** very nsnghty of you!

The portiere is a creature of mischief When I think of the conspicuous part which the nice-to-hiJe-behind curtain plays in novels, ancient and modern; the jealous lovers that have used the drapery as a covert, the mischief^makers who have found the folds of the noiseless portiere a sure refuge for their eavesdropping, I feel a sense of horror at the renaissance of the portiere. A wooden door gives forth an honest “Look out!” sort of a bang, and the rattle of its knob or latch enables a young couple to have some sort ot chance in preparing sninst unwelcome intrusion. But the portiere is a snake. Its sinuous folds betray neither the coming nor the departing one. In ab­ solute silence the cruel father, the stern mother-in-law, the suspicious husband, can part its treacherous folds and stand revealed to the very people who most wish the intruder in the wilds of Africa. All ths possibilities confront the man who remove* his doors and substitutes the charming but treacherous portiere. — Washington Republic. Fob an American to marry in Mexico is a somewhat serious business. He must be three times married, twice in Spanish and once in English, besides having a public notice of his intention of marriage placed on a bulletin board for twenty days before the ceremony. This is the law. The public notice can be gotten around by .the payment of a sum of money, but k residence of one month is necesoary. The three cere­ monies are tho contract of marriage, the civil marriage—the only marriage recognised by law since 1858—and the usual but not obligatory church ser­ vice. Th® first two must take place l>efore a judge, and in tee presence of can Consul. The civil marriage is the legal form of marriage. These cere­ monies are necessarily in Spanish.

The alecpy German on the elevated seat started suddenly ns though awakened out .of a nap, an<l. grabbing the reins, gave them a jerk that threw hia horses almost upon their haunebea. while the reverse action jammed the rear end of the wagon into the front of the strwtcar, smashing a window-glass nnd frightening • the pfuwcngvrs nearly to iteath. The driver whirled his brake around until it stuck fart, nnd then looked up al the beer driver, who seemed wholly overpowered by the gravity of the situation. ••You mutton-head.*’ he yelled, with just a tinge of annoyance in his tones, •what are vdu trying to do, anyway?” ••Hey—vat—velL I tm yurt------- ” ‘•Go on now.

One day last week a young man en­ tered tlie Hartwell telegraph office with a sealed letter.

He says that during the war when the militia were about Savannah, an old-lady who hail a 16-year-old son down there went to the depot at Greens­ boro with a pair of wool socks which she wanted sent to her "bold soldier i»y” by telegraph. Some men were walking about the depot. One of them told her to walk into the office and he would hang the socks on the wire and in a few minutes she would hear from Jim. The man pulled off his dirty, well-worn -iocks and polling on the’ new ones, hung the old ones on the wire, and went in and told the old lady Jim had received the socks and sent bark his okl ones, which were hanging on the wire. The delighted old lady raised her sp4*ctaelcs. saw the old soaks, and requested the man to take them down, remarking in a voice full of pride and tenderness: ‘‘Jos’ like Jim—he always wuza keertul, savin' boy, and he has sent his old socks back for his mammv to darn ra —Gtel bless him!” And in turn we say God bless all such innocent, tender­ hearted mothers as Jim’s.—Jlartwell (Ga) Sun. | Tlie Medical Summary thinks that । i theatrical people arc too much inclined to drink absinthe, and considers the taste especially unfortunate, as the dip.■bomania resulting from it is very violent | and almost incurable.

Editor: laeein Tue Naws that you wish some light on the hog cholera subject. I have had a great deal of experience in western hog cholera. When a hog is overtaken with chol­ era he will sit down on his haunches and pump or cough; they last from one to four hour* owing Lo the severity; hundreds will die of a night. I can say to the farmers of Michigan that this present hog trouble is simply through their own carelessness, they allow their hogs to breed brother and sister until they are run out, or in other words inbrecd; then some mala­ dy will overtake th^m and the result is that the careful hog breeder will suffer with the careless one. The presen t hog malady that is raging is no hog cholera, but simply a disease tuut wifi stumer or later come from an inbreed hog. Yours respect fully, Jau. Sth. 1888. J ambs K. Brooks.

The silver situation is set forth in the fol­ lowing WMhington dispatch published in the New York World days ago: . There is no chance for the suspension of silver coinage by the present Congress, It is useless for the financier# of the East to cherish delusive hopes. Tbo real facta „ the situation may as well be recognized. All tbo speculation about the composition of the Committee on Coinage is secondary. It will make little difference wbat that com­ mittee may do. The House itself is strongly * against tho susixmrion of the coinage. The probalalitie* an that when Congress adjourns the sit­ uation will be precisely the same os it is to-day. All the agitation of the question In the interval, whether in Con­ gress or out, will be without avail. The chances of a free coinage bill being pushed through the House are greater than the chances of a suspension ot the present coinage. Koch a bill would, of course, bo vetoed .by the President, and that would leave matters just a* they are. My reasons for this opinion are as follows: 1. New York, New Jersey, and New En­ gland are emphatically in favor of tho su*aension of surer coinage, but outside of this section the feeling is cither divided or strongly in favor of silver. The idea seems lb have spread throughout tho West and South that the anti-silver movement is en­ gineered by the Wai! street financiers; that it is in tho interests of the capitalists as against tho debtor classes. 1. It is a mistake to suppose that tho question is, strictly speaking, sectional. Even Pennsylvania ir no longer united; I have every reason to believe that there are both.Democratic arid Bimnl-lican members af Congress from that State who will veto against suspension. 3. The sentiment is also divided in tho four great Middle State#. Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri. Ohio is certainly closely akin to the East iu her commercial, industrial, and educational development; yet there are among her Itepreeentative# IxKh Democrat* and Republicans who are against suspension of the present silver coinage. The feeling for silver grown stronger as one advances west wan! through Indiana nnd Illinois, and reaching Missouri every one of the frontier Representatives nnd the* Senators' is found arrayed against suspension, and many of them advocate un­ limited coinage. 4. There is prolmblv not a Republican member from Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, Min­ nesota, Colorado, Nevaita, Oregon, or Cali­ fornia who is not n silver tnan. One of the leaders of the Republican minority, who knows tho men well, assures mo positively that such is the case. The Democracy went of the Mississippi is absolutely solid in favor of the silver dollar. 5. A careful canvass of the House fully justifies thetwt statements, and leaves no reasonable doubt Hint about one-third of the Republican inemlsrs, with nt least twothinls of the Democratic members, will vote against suspension, having a majority of nt least sixty votes against suspension. ' C. The situation in the Senate is not very different. Mr. Evarts appears to lie on the fence, if not already committed against sus­ pension. Mr, Sherman also i* believed to l»e uncertain os to his course. The Repub­ lican Senators from KiinsaH. Nebraska, Iowa. Minnesota, California, Colorado and Nevada are solid against sinqM'iiNion, nnd there are strong indications that Logon and Cullom, of Illinois, nnd several of tlie Re­ publican SenatoYs from Michigan nnd Wis­ consin will side with them. The great ma­ jority of the Democratic Senators from the South, including Mr. Lamar's successor from Murifarippi, and Mr. Garland's successor from Arkansas, are opposed to suspension. In the Senate the least majority against suspension is esti­ mated at six. Even the majority of tho Senate Finance Committee ia said’ by anti­ silver Senators to be cither against them or to be nt least doubtful. 7. The silver question is not a party ques­ tion. Neither party is united npon it. A Democratic administration strongly advo­ cate* suspension. Two-third* of the Dem­ ocratic Representatives and Senators arc ns strongly opposed to it. Republicans are also dearly divided. Nor, ns I have said, is it, stri^kly speaking, a sectional question. Only eight States, and most of these com­ paratively small ones, in the northeast cor­ ner of the country, are pronounced in their opposition to silver, while of the thirty othenStateB, constituting the greater part of tho country, some, are divided on tho question, but most of them strongly in favor of silver. This widespread silver feeling ia largely the outgrowth of a preju­ dice or suspicion that the .money centers of the East are endeavoring to control the Government for selfish ends, an unfounded suspicion perhaps, lmt yet one that exist* in this rural Republic, and it must be taken into consideration. 8. It is certainly desirable that the busi­ ness men of the East, ss well as tlie West, should recognize the facta of the situation and n°t deraive themselves with wrong con­ clusion*. No bill suspending silver coinage can pass the House. Any bill providing for free or more extended coinage, if passed, would certainly be killed by the President's veto. Therefore it is for from probable that dur ing the present session of Congress there will be any cliange in the law regarding the coin­ age of silver. Arbitary Aetio n of Bismarck’s (knunl— American and British Consuls Protest . CLondon dispatch.] Intelligence has been, received here that Germany has seised tho Islands of Samoa in tho Pacific Ocean. The King and iri»caiefs were insulted, and finally fled, A force of marines were landed from tho Ger­ man war ship Albatross. The German Con­ sul then hauled down tho Samoaxt flag and ran up the German colors in its stead. Thfi Samoans threaten to make war on the Ger­ mans. The American and Brittah Comrala proteoted against the action of the German*. In February, 1885, the announcement was made that Germany had annexed these islands, and that ita action wm in puxxuanoo of a secret agreement between the Goveroments of Germany and England. Tb» officials at tho Colonial Office in London said that they believed that the agitation of the Australians was only temporary, and that there was a growing feeling both in Australia and England that Germany would be a good neighbor, and that it wah wise to Eve Germaaj- an interest.in the Pacific lands to offset the aggressions of France. Sttangely enough the dispatch announcing the annexation said that Germany's proceed­ ings were “deopite the prntiwta of the Eng­ lish and American Consuls.” This seizure touches England more nearly tlian any other power, because the Samoan# are distant only 480 miles from the Brittah Fiji Islands, and contain two of the safest and liest harbors in the Pacific. The island# are nine in nnmlier, have an area of alxrat 1,400 square miles, and a population of nearly 50,000. Tho largest island is Ujx>la; area, 335 rauare miles; papulation, 17,000. On this island is Apla,' the capital of tho group, residence of the King and foreign consuls, and principal commercial town m tlie kingdom. The soil is righ and tlie surface densely wooded. The products comprise ccxxianut-oi), arrowroot, cotton, castor beaus, ginger, coffee, tortoise shtdl, nnd vegetables.

Mr. Pugh, of Alabama, Speaks in Fa­ vor of the Dollar of the Daddies. [Aaaociated Pres* Itepcst.] Mr. Pugh called up Mr. Beck’s silver res­ olution, aud addressed the Senate on it. With the aid cf nil the learning in the world, Mr. Pugh said, the greatest statesmen in tho world were still grappling with the money question at precisely the same point at which they begun to grapple with it. So fur as tho UnRed States were concerned, there iiad. never been u time when our paper and metal­ lic currency hod been ho sound aryl healthy as it was to-day. Thia condition of iiffnirs. and tlie premium on our Ixmds con­ stituted u grim satire on the prophecies of the opponents of the legislation hitherto finacted by Congress on the money auestion. Nothing more was to be desired, Mr. Pugh thought, than that the bunks, bunkers and Federal Treasury should stand aside and allow the Gresham law to have full and. fna operation on our silver currency. He had much confidence in the practical ideM, sound judgment, and integrity of President Cleveland and his devotion to constitutional principles Bnt many Democrats would differ with the President on the money question and on detail* affecting the tariff. These questions were so far-reaching and complicated in their operation m not to be capable of a final solution sattafactory to nil honest inonirere. He (Mr. Pugh) had given the President's message much con­ sideration, bnt was constrained to differ with him in regard to money. Mr. Pugh quoted figures from the New York Clearing House to show that only about 3i per cent of tho clearing house transac­ tions were represented by cash, the re­ mainder being made np principally by cheeks. Congress was confronted, he said, with an official announcement that our busi­ ness relations bad reached a crisis in which wo most suspend tlie coinage of silver if wo would secure an international ratio between Eld and silver. The real point involved, r. Pugh believed, not tlie suspension, but the total stoppage of silver coinage, aud if silver coinage were suspended now, it would be a blow that would dirta'' ’ tend to tho comnimmation control of our currency and the regulation of the volume nnd consequent purchasing power. Mr. Pugh believed he spoke for the Southern people when he said that three-fourths of them would to-day, if opportunity were given, vote against the proposition to suspend silver coinage. Thu petition* that came to Congress favoring suspension were all on printed blanks, and signed mainly by bankers. Mr. Pugh criticined the arguments of tho Secretary of the Treasury and of the Presi­ dent. He inquired whether we were to take the mere diction of the President on this matter, and imitated tied the executive offi­ cers were under obligation to enforce tho law# of Congress. Why had those laws been hourly violated? Had Congress abdi­ cated its nowera to the Executive Depart­ ment of the Government? Tbo rational A Wollin Sheep’s Clothing.

Mr. Caldwell, of Tennessee, called up tho Hoar ]*£<•■,fdcuttal-euccesnlnu bill tn Urn House, tnd stated that the committee, in rcjxirting this measure, had not dealt with indifference <ir dis­ respect with other proposition# tx-fare it. There they could become laws, and a oonrtitutional amendment involved a delay which would ill accord with the reasonable anxiety which the great body of toe people felt. There were many exigencies which toe landing mea­ sure did not cover, but the present exigency it completely covered. It wm a temporary bridge thrown across a eh«Kn in order to meet public demand, and would l>e followed in duo time by an enduring structure over which a long line:<if Republican-Dcmocnttic President# might march in unbroken supcession. Mr. Cooper, of Ohio, who prepared too minority re|xjrt, protested against toe general principle ot the bill— against the idea of vesting in tho person who occupied too Presidential chair tho pourer to perpetuate too suoceasion. by naming his successor. Ho wm profoundly doubtful of the oansUttfUonality of n provision which would vest too Presidency upon a man appointed by an outgoing administration. He believed, it to be in violation, not only of toe spirit and letter of toe Constitution, but of the spirit out of which remedied by carefully considered legislation. What wm worth while for the American Con­ gress to do, was worth doing well. Hn could see no exigency which required red-hot haste in passing tills measure. Mr. Edon. <4 Illinois, defended too ^111 against adverse criticism, and jxnnted out wherein it wm an improvement over the existing law. Tho present measure would preserve toe country fram anarchy in cases of trouble arising in too matter of toe Presidential succession. Mr. McKirfley, of Ohio, gave notice at a sub­ stitute which bo would offer for toe bill. This rabstituto preserves tho law of I7W, with too addition of a provision that for too purpoao of baring a Speaker of the House Ct Reprrscntitivrs continually in office Congress shall conveno on the 4th of March nett suefieeding the eloctlons of Bo;resontattvcS of Congress; and whenever a vacancy exist# either to the office of President pro tern of tho Senate or toe Speaker ot toe House tho President shall convane tho House fit which tho vacancy exists for tho pur­ pose of electing a i»residing officer. Mr. Pcrters. of Kansas, regarded toe pendim.' moMure a# unconstitutional, inexpedient, and impotent. But for these faults it was a pretty koi u_ ». of tho Constitution, and which in offset declared an appointive officer should act m President It was a flagrant usurpation of tho power vested in the people.

That would amply provide against any break tn tbo line of succession. Mr. Senoy. of Ohio, bcllsvrd that the ProsidoutiAl succession under existing law was st beat doubtful and uncertain.

In a certain village in Maryland a small boy kicked np a breeze in the parish church one Sunday. It seems that a certain good woman bought a calfs bead and put it on to boil, leav­ ing her little boy to mind it while she went to church close by. The minister had reached his“Fifthly, my brethern,” when a small boy stuck his head in at the door and .whispered: “Mamma!” The good mother recognized her son instantly and began at once to make signs to him to leave the door. “Mam­ ma!” again came the whisper, this time a little louder than before. The moth­ er shook her finger at the boy warningly, and indulged in other familiar pan­ tomime with which she was accustom­ ed to awe ber son. But it didn't work worth a cent. The boy was excited and in dead earnest. Raising his voice he shouted,“Mamma, you needn't wink nnd blink at me; but you had better come homo right away, for the calf's head is buttin’ all the dumplin's out of the pot.” A New Yorker offers to cure a case of hydrophobia, by the sweating cure, for $500.

Her companion was young, tall, hand'•omc, and very distinguished looking, and, though wearing n simple evening dress, it was evident, from bis military appearance, that he held a commission in her Maiestv's service.

It is the eve' of Charlie’s departure for Gibraltar to pay bin promised visit to his sister. They had a quiet little dinner— covers laid tor three; and Lady Bab, half buried in a luxurious choir, was sleeping the sleep of the just. “I must go early, as I want to see Home fellows at the clnb before I turn in.” Charlie says, as he tries to steady himself on the back of an amber damask chair. “The parting will be heartrendering, I dare say/’ Gladys answer with irony. “Well, when a fellow gets into that land of pigskins and stilettos, l;e does not know whether be will ever get out.” “If you never return, I shall know what's become of you," said the girl, lightly. “And Lionel, Lord Beverly, will console yon for my loss." ‘‘Perhaps,’’ with a toes of her tawny head, ana s pont of her rosy lipa. “Well, won't you confess that you’ll be heartbroken when I'm gone.” “No, sir, I mean to enjoy m yself thor­ oughly."

Does she care for him after all, more than ever she wishes to ac­ knowledge, even to herself? “What a lovely sky, what a panorama of white and rose color, blue and amber, all blended together, but Spanish skies and Sp*ui»ih eyes are brighter than ours," she Heid, as she gazed at the vista of blue bky visible between the Belgravian gables and chimney pots. “For those who like them, yon know," said Charlie, going cloaor to her, and steal­ ing his arm round the slim waist. “ You do not care for any particular color." “I prefer English blue ones to Spanish black ones.

A Remarkable ('lock. One of the most remarkable of clocks has just been constructed in London for a banking eatabhsbment. It is on the twenty-four principle, and is notable as possessing probably the simplest method which has yet been resorted to for indicating time accord­ ing to the now enumeration. Tho clock in question has only one hand, tho long miquto hand, and tbe figures around ere placed as heretofore. In­ stead. however, of indicating the hours, they indicate the minutes only, which are marked from five to sixty. The hours are shown on a sunk dial revolving under tho upper dial, a space being loft in.the upper dial in which tho next hour figure comes for­ ward instantaneously upon the minute hand, completing fts circuit of sixty minutes—that is, in a word, the soli­ tary band makes tbe minutes, and the sunk space shows the hour.

Ami they .were a very cheery and pleasaat party, the pleasantest set, Gertrude ^bought, that her mother had ever got to­ gether, aud Gertrude was a young Indv. of decided tastes nnd somewhat difficult to please. Even Bob 5Inr*ton, wheu he was not talking nonsense and nppennng where he wm not wanted nt inopportune moments, eras ns amusing m any other Eton boy. nevertheless, at this moment two people ’at least were ardently longing to make his cars tingle. "And what is the programme for to-mor­ row, Mr. Godwin?" resumed the young gen­ tleman, not a whit daunted by the unfavor­ able reception of his last remark. ‘ Can we picnic on the Red Pike? It would be jolly fun." The boat bummed and hawed; he rather preferred an open-air entertainment at a place accessible in an open carriage. B.ut if you have a house among the mountains, op them yon must go. The climbing diswase is infectious, and there is no evading it smtil by a permanent residence you become proof against its attacks. Mr. Godwin would Eave to succumb sooner or later. “Yes, Bob," said Gertrude, suddenly lay­ ing down the fan with which she wm play­ ing, “wo will go to the Red Pike to-mor­ row." And Bob, who thought he had rather put his foot in it, os he would say, wm corngorted, for he knew that to the Red Pike he would go. Gertrude's face, m aha went up to dress for dinner, wm thoughtful. '•He showed his usual good sense," Mrs. Godwin had «aid, and the words kept ringing in her daughter's ears until her lip began to curl with scorn. If there was one thing which Gertrude admired it was courage. Was she beginning to like a man who could be called • coward even by a boy? And the insinua­ tion chimed in with other things. Walter Isxford wm hardly one to please a romantic girl at first sight Cold, sensible, and want­ ing in enthusiasm even ta his ambition, try­ ing nearly everything by the arguments of reason, he would have made a just and not too merciful judge. And yet when Gertrude anst him at dinner the hauteur she assumed melted away, and she blushed and smiled al iiM glance; for what is so fascinating m the homage of one who aeems utterly careless of 411 Itesides? The Red Pike was red indeed in the even­ ing sunlight, every cliff that buttressed its wiew of" the sea and land from Forth to ■Windermere that held them entranced. It ■was Bob only who wm on the mere, skirenishing about untiringly. “I ear, Gertrude, here's a specimen for you! It is a blue gentian growing on this cliff, and a rare good climb it will be to get The party hastened to the edge of the cliff. In a cranny of the rock about twelve feet down grew tho flower Gertrude had been longing to find. A slight opening in the wall of the cliff made it just feasible, if •omewhat dangerous, to reach it. “Robert, don’t go too near!" cried Mrs. Godwin. Gerture turned, little 'fiu«bed, to Loefoid. “Can you get it for me Mr. Loaford?’ a rope," he answered. “To-morrow!" cried Gertrude, with sud-den heat. “I want it now. Bob would get it for me in a moment, if I asked him, Mr. Loftforfl." “Bob's head is steadier tlian mine, pcr- te finished, hia eyes met the girl * full of contempt and anger.

Tlie gentlemen rose and hurried from th.e room; but almost aa soon as they reached the scene the women were there too.

The spell wm broken, and who then so recklcM m the Ciunberland men? Losfonl soon had to check them, and assist -the fore­ man to finder; in and take other precautions m they worked. In time more men flocked from neighboring pits to the spot, and the,' work wm carried on in gangs. Notwith-. standing Mr. and Min.

How each, workinah was gazed at as he camo from the darkneM into the blnxo of the fire and de­ posited his load. Whoever worked by jqjells, tbe figure Gvrtrudb knew best did not appear. But. when the faint, linger­ ing hope was dying out. one of the mon staying in the honse came quickly up to Violet. “Miss Maraton. do not l»e too sanguine. There is hope yet, however. The fall is only partial, and hr may l>e in tho main working*. The men fancy they heard him knocking. Violet made no reply. She was sobbing on Gertrude’s shoulder. “Is any one hurt?” asked the latter, eagerly. “Hardly. Only a few cuts from rtones." Another hour passed, while the crowd thickened, nnd listened lireathlea-dy to the dull sound of the tools and tin* errtikiug of the Ixtrrows. A fresh gang wm at work, and they ciuue out more quickly. The sky wm growing gray, aud the hill-tops came out iu cold majesty. Suddenly the work ceased; a barrow on its way out stopped inside the entrance. The crowd outside drew close and breathod more quickly, and women hid their faces as the sound of voices came from the pit. Then a crowd of men pressed out. ana in their midst Walter Loaford. stained and ragged, with the l»oy in iSs arms. He laid him on the wraps by the women. The blood was trickling from a rut in his own forehead, and his face, where it was not toad-grimed, was pallid with fatigue. “He has only faiuted," he said to the doc"Just so; ho only wanted a glass of whisky,” said the latter, cheerily. Gertrude rose from the boy to thank his bearer, but he had turned away. “The worst time wait junt before they broke in, Gerty. I thought the earth mu»t fall again, or something happen to prevent them reaching me," Bob said to her. when she virfited him in his room next day. “But that Losfonl i» no end of a trump. He's been up to say good-by, aud T told him what an I'd made myself about him. I heard his voice first, and Mrs. Godwin says they would not have got me out but for him." The likelihood of this olternathe ap­ peared to give him unmixed Mtiafaction. “I don't think they would," said Gertrude, presenting him with a large bunch of grapes. “I’ll get you some more, Bob." “You bet your boots they wouldn't. It's a pity he can't climb. Fancy a fellow like that with what the doctor calls ‘constitutioual vertige!' I can't make it out.” And Boh fell into a brown study which passed into a doze; end thus refreshed, ho was enabled to chatter all dinner time. Gertrude stole out of the room, and, run­ ning down stairs, found him in tho hall. He had mislaid a favorite stick. "Mr. Losfonl,” she began, standing be­ fore him in she knew not what attitude of pretty humility, “I said something yesterday the memory of which is burning me with shame. I cannot forgive myself, but will you say that you do? Bob has made amends. Let mo do so. What a foolish girl said cannot have hurt you!” she pleaded, as be made no answer. “Bather should not hare hurt me,” he re­ plied, gravely; “yet it did, cruelly, Miss Godwin.

His doctor prescribed that mat he ne should snouta rest real his nu mind, and famillamniarize himself with the few simple details of light work. He obeyed the advice, and found, in his old habit of doing things carefully, the schoolmaster that brought back his old knowledge. Before his illness thoyoung man, in order to earn a little money, had taken cure of the village church, sweeping it out, cleaning the lamps and doing all the work of a sexton. He now re­ sumed this work, and by the physician's advice tried to keep his mind from puz­ zling itself about its loss of memory. Several weeks went by without bring­ ing any change in his mental condition. One Bunday evening n stranger en­ tered the church, and, aa the sermon was a dull one. gazed carelessly around until his attention was attracted by the lamps on the wall. He noticed that all the wicks were so carefully trimmed that there was not an irregular flame to be seen. He wondered as to who could be the careful sexton, aud hap­ pening to be in the place the following Sunday, he again noticed the same uni­ form trimming of the wick. Passing the church the next day, and seeing the door open, ho walked quietly in, and saw the young sexton sweeping out tbe central isle. Looking closely at the young man, the stranger asked': "Do you do all tho work about the church ?” "Yes. sir." . t “Do you trim the lamps ?" "Why do you trim them in such a peculir way?” “I don’t know what you moan.” “Why, tho flames are all alike." “Oh, but they ought to be. You would not have" them uneven, would you?" "No," answered tho stranger, with a smile. “But it speaks well for your carefulness.

An esteemed New York contemporary tells of a cooking school in that city where the young lady that tends the door nnd the vonng lady that su|>erintends the cooking and gives instructions to cook and eat on scientific principles ore always clean as new pins, never dowdy, and have bright, rosy cheeks and dear eyes and healthy lips. In the midst of chickens browned and juicy and muffins light and pure, and with plenty of rolls, well kneaded and well baked by such cooks, it is not remark­ able that tbe aspiring journalists of the Empire City are looking forwa d toward a speedy and splendid millennium. The ablest thinkers of this age have long since concluded that temperance pledges, abundant weal tn, rapid tran­ sit, plus the doctrine of evolution, will all amount to but little in the long and tediouo culture of the humor race as long as the kitchen is run in the midst of smoke and dust by the whims of ignorant Bridgets; no two bakings of bread carried out on exactly the same measurements, with the average resnil of soggy bread and doughy pudding. No matter what a man’s pluck or piety, he will break down or run to stimulants if his kitchen is a place that stifle! rather than inspires him. No doubt the New York Cooking School is excellent, as some such places have been in this city. But good cook­ ing and good housekeeping generally— a good deal like good blood and breed­ ing—must be got at home or nowhere. Aud if thousands of well-to-do young ladies who are wasting their time paint­ ing plaques, drumming on the piano, studying French and becoming accom­ plished in wavs that will never be of any use to themselves or the world, would only spend two or throe hour* a day in their mothers' kitchens studying the qualities of meats, vegetables and grain, and learning how to prepare and cook food, and actually Keeping tho kitchen clean meanwhile, thousands of future husbands would love them to some purpose, and many questions of social reform would bo already aa good as solved.—Philadelphia Timet.

For a month sum­ mer ruffe* witJi an almost tropical heat, driving »l»e wfcalthy to their cool sum­ mer resiliences, but leaving the poor afoot on the blistering granite noementfc of the dmt awept, aun-tormefnod city.

It is naturally au inexpressible relief that to tbe unbearable summer day of the sixtieth parallel succeeds a night of brief yet strange beauty. The sky is so luminous that one may read small print in tbe open air without effort. It is a light with a line of its own, seen, it is said, in no other part of the world— a delicate green of marvelous tender­ ness, deepening near tbe horizon into blue, and in tbe north expanding to­ ward the sun in vivid alternations of rose and amber. To the ordinary eye the heavens, though clear, are almost starless; only brilliants like* Vega and Arcturns have power to make an im­ pression upon the retina. Summer midnight in tbe Russian capital is thus a simple twilight, uniting day to day, separated from actual morning only by a few brief flibments. Its social effect is remarkable. "Native residents of St Petersburg are rarely in bed earlier than 12 o'clock.* To issue forth an hour before midnight, with the park or public garden for one’s destination, is a fashionable habit sanctioned by the highest precedents. To return from theater or promenade at 1 o'clock a. m. is by no means unusual. Tho immedi­ ate result is much loss of sleep; the' ultimate effect of these late hours ap­ pears in a peculiar form of nervous ir­ ritability. Happily, this period of extreme heat i» over iu July, though warm noons may persist up to the opening days of September. The cold begins its attack os early as August Day is then vul­ nerable in tbe narrow neck of twilight which the sun fails to guard, and through this tlie winds blow from the ice-fields. September evenings not only bring back many of lost year’s overcoats; they empty the country resdences and open a social season that is sure to last until February or even March. In October St Peterburg is fairly besieged. Tho householder, in­ trenched behind double windows, re­ plies to the atmospheric attack with crackling logs of pine and birch until the groat Russian stove threatens to bring back a mimic summer of ite own. But without tho enemy is inexpug­ nable. On tbe coldest days not men, but furs, are abroad. Without precau­ tions of this kind all accidents are sometimes possible.

The Mayor of Sioux Falls, Dakota, only gvta one dollar a year salary, but his official dignity when a circus strikes the u*ud is awe-inspiring. An Illinois habk cashier who has Frayed from the path rectitude anil landed in the Dominion of Canada, is described us a "gone tucker." Talmage has been telling the men of his cougregatiou “How to Choose a Wife." The average young man would rather know how to support one. • A Washington belle has taken the pains to have a ruddy blush perman­ ently tattoed into her cheeks. These Washington girls are bound to be modest, no matter whnt it costs. A man in Dcddrige County, Virgin­ ia, not satisfied with being accused of two felonies, two straw bonds, two wives, who were sisters, and with be­ ing the father of nineteen children, has run oft with a young girl. Visitors to tfie Philadelphia mint may look at millions, but they may nnt touch a -nickel. It may teem strange to some, but somehow or other this little fact reminds us painfully of the way it is in Journalism. Sam- Small (Old Si) is credited in At­ lanta. Ga., with having paid t1.200 of old debts, which is accepted as evi­ dence not only that his preaching ia profitable—at all events, to himself— but that his conversion ia sincere. It is all right that man should toil, but it is positively cruel to compel a woman to get her living by the sweat of her brow. Perspiration of the fore­ head is death to crimps, and no lady as is a lady can be expected to endanger her crimps. A Kansas real estate agent who located one man ou another fellow's claim was taken from bis bed by a party of men, horsewhipped, com­ pelled to run barefooted over patches of cactus, aad finally thrown into tlie cold waters of Bucknor River. There’s more real significance in the phrase “newspaper man” than most people stop to consider. A throughgoing newspaper man usually gets so completely ab«orlwd by aud identified with his work that there isn’t much to the man besides the newspaper. Judging from the remark of the Pawnee Press the ptodigal son busi­ ness is certainly played out in Nebras­ ka. It reports that n young son of a rich farmer, who ran away from home and became a hog-tender, was recently eaten by, his charges while asleep in a strawstack. Next to the President. General Sheri­ dan is said to be the most popular man in Washington, and he has no offices to distribute, cither. If he would go out into the Southwest nnd distribute the bones of the Apaches ore* two or three connties he might become a big­ ger man than aver. By a recent transaction, in which an Ohio num sold his wife for five cents, the quotation has been established at a figure which leads the politicians to expect a heavy decline in tbe price of votes next fall. When Ohio women go for a nickel an Ohio man ought to be had for about a cent. . During tbe rebellion when a com­ mander failed to put down the confed­ eracy in one campaign be was retired and another man was given a chance, but General Crook, who had failed in a half dozen campaigns to catch the Apaches, is to have another chance all by himself. As most of the Indians axe aged men, this policy is likely to win in the course of time. Tbe healthy icports following a sea­ son of low thermometer always record a notable incieaac in bronchial dis­ eases. Most people who have paid no special attention to the subject believe that the worst thing one can do is to be too much in the cold, and that throat and lung diseases aie the result of con tact with low temperature.

Joseph Rankin, member of Con­ gress from the Fifth Wisconsin District, died al hia lodging* on M street, adjoining the Postmaster General's, on Sunday, the 24th of January. A couple of weeks ago he ws* very low, but rallied, and for a few day* was around and aptian-ntly very com­ fortable. For forty-light hour* he had been in a dying condition, being at times delirious. Fears were entertained that he would be attacked by convulsions, but, happily, the*o were avoided. This morning it wn* apparent that he could not fast through the day, and during much of the forenoon he wm*delirious.

Mr. Rankin was born in 1H33 at Passaic, N. J., and iu 1864 settled at Mixhicott, in Manitowoc County, Wia. He soon turned his attention to imlitica, and served several terms in thu State Legislature, where he made n rejratation as one of the bent parlia­ mentarians ever in that bqdy. Mr. Rankin served through the war as a Captain in the Twenty-seventh Wisconsin Volunteers, He was elected to Congress in 1882 and again in 1886. Tbe President has definitely decided not to supply the Senate with infanuation re­ garding removals. A few days ago he wm disposed to send this infonnatiou, with an explanation that he did so m -a matter of eourlesy, and not a matter of duty, provided the Senate asked for it in n manner indi­ cating.that it was looked for simply a* a in-acr of accommodation. But he has since reached the conclusion that the repe­ tition of courtesies of that kind would cre­ ate a precedent that would result in future Senate* demanding such information and. future Presidents fe< ling themselves bound, to give it. The President looks on the power of absolute removal a* a part of the Presidential prerogative, and be will not do anything that will impair that prerogative. He will not, even m a matter of accommodation, re-enforce the theory of certain Senator* that they have a right to pass judgment on the President'* removal*. Whether appointments be con­ sidered in secret or open w*sions_will make no difference. The President docs not look with favor on the suggestion that executive session* be dispensed with in considering appointments, and tn either case he will not, even in an indirect .way, recognize tharight of the Senate 4o participate with the President in making removals. The Sen­ ate committee^ have not yet applied to the President himself for the desired informa­ tion. A Democratic Senator,who has been con­ sulted by an immediate friend of the Presi­ dent as to the situation with rt sped to contirmntiaim, say* that tbe President de­ cided to instruct the Cabinet officer* not ta furnish any information as -to suspen­ sion*. nnd that he dm*s not believe the*President will change hi* mind. Tho same Senator is confident, from statement* which the Republican Senators have made to him personally, that the Republicans will not recede from their position; that they will insist n|>on th? production of the papers; that they will certainly, in com* of refusal,, sulqxvna the Cabinet officers with a sum­ mons ducM tecum, aud that it is possible even that the contest may go so far that the Republicans may cho»s*< to fitlempt to place the Cabinet officers in contempt in tlie event that they aboil refuse to produce the fHiper*. They may not go aa far us that, but they are not likely to confirm any of the appoint­ ments made in cases of suiqienrion.

Having these extensive arrangements for clearing thoriver. M. Souffrice offered to remove all dead animals between Aspiores and Argenteuil. The offer was gladly accepted by the prefecture of the Seine. In con­ sequence of the vast amount of decay­ ing matter accumulated at tbe works, which uro situated at Buget, immense numbers of flies were attracted, and soon gentles appeared in millions. Some of these were of large size, pre­ sumably the well-fatter.od offspring of blue-bottles, and eminently suited for angling purposes. Of this fact tin* fishermen of the Seine soon became aware and a brisk trade in gentles com­ menced. This proving very profitable, M. Souffrice caused tho finer maggots or .asticots to be collected, and had them sheltered and cultivated in a shed built expressly for the purpose. Un­ der these favorable circumstances, the gentlee were found to still increase in size, and the demand became greater than ever. It is stated that last season no less than 25,000f or X1.0U0 worth of gentles were sold from the factory. In another department of the same works, rich oil cake, for feeding pigs is manu­ factured.

Whale fishing in small streams off tlw coast of New England is getting to be a business of some importance, four steamers (formerly catching menhaden) having been steadily engaged during the past season. They cruise off the Maine and Massachusetts shores as far south ns Cope Cod. A bomb lance, fired from a gun held at the shoulder is the weapon employed in killing tho whales, about fifty ot which have been taken this year. They will average sixty feet in length and twenty-five tons in weight Each one yields about twenty barrels of oil, two barrels of meat, five tons of dry chum, and two tons of bone, the valno of which amounts to about $400. As the men become expert in the capture the whales become shy and keep more in deep water. Tills will be fatal to the busi­ ness. as at present conducted, since a dead whale usually sinks, and can hard­ ly be recovered from a depth of more than forty fathoms.

The Nashville Nm L03KZD BQUALLT TOE A WHILE * TWO CORRESPONDENTS. Martin F. Tupper,Texas.—The poem to which you allude was written by Julia A. Mooore, better known oh the Sweet Singer of Michigmi; The hut stanza is something like tills: “My chhilhoot] day* are ;»art and gone, And it fills my bcait with ;xUn. To think that youth will never more Return to me again. And now, kind friend*, what I have wrote, I iwpe you will imm o're And not ertttcliie a* some lia* hitherto herc-before done." Miss Moore also wrote a volume of poems, which the farmers ot Michigan are still using on their potato bugs. She wrote a large number of poems, all more or less saturated with grief and damaged syntax. She is now said to be a fugitive -from justice. We should learn from this that we cannot evade tbe responsibility of our acta, aud those who write obituary poetry will one day be over­ taken by a bobtail sleuth hound, or a Siberian Nemeau with two rows of teeth. Leonora Vivian Gobb, Oleson’s Forks, Ariz.—Yea. You can turn the front breadths, let oat the tucks in the side*plaiting and baste on a new dragoau where you caught the oyster stew in your lap at the party. You could also get trusted for a new dress, per­ haps. But that is a matter of taste. Some dealers are wearing their open accounts this long winter and some are not.

Now comes the most curious part of roy experience. After the first feeling of torture, which was I admitdecidedly severe, I lost conscious­ ness. 1 M-emed to be transported into a new' world, more beautiful than any­ thing imagined by the poet*. I was swimming, I thought in a sea of oil. Tiie feeling was exquisitely delicious.

This it was my wish to reach. 1 swam lazily and con­ tentedly ou. Tbe sea kept eveiy in­ stant changing its hue, though it renained the same substance throughout, at one instant it was a mass of guld, a* if the sun was shining brilliantly upon it. The next moment it was a vivid blood-red; but there was nothing tumble or disgusting about this new color. It kept changing, in fact to all tbe hues of the rainliow, yellow aud gold being the predominant tints. I got nearer and nearer to the isle. As I approached it there sprang outsuddenly from the ground a numtier of peo­ ple strongly transfigured whose faces seemed to be known to me. I at last reached the land. A magnificent chu­ rns of voices, human and tbime of birds, burst forth. I closed my eve* in ecstasy. 1 floated cal toy on to the shore, and lay as a child in its cradle, slightly weakened from, as I supposed, the en­ ervating effect of the oily matter in which I had been, swimming. At last I opened my eyes. The magic charm waa at once dispelled. The divine har­ mony ceased.

The St. Petersburg day in summer, nearly twenty hours in­ tervening between sunrise and sunaet, is a white, glaring, sustained weariness. It is naturally an inexpressible relief that to the unbearable summer day of the sixtieth parallel succeeds a night of brief yet strange beauty. The sky is so luminous that one may read small print in tha open air without effort It is b light with a hue of its own, seen, it is said, in no other part of the world— a delicate green of marvelous tender­ ness, deepening near the horizon into blue, and in the north expanding to­ ward the sun in vivid alternations of rose and amber. To the ordinary eyo tha heavens, though clear, are almost Btarlesa; only brilliants liktf Vega and Arcturus have power to make an im­ pression upon the retina. Summer midnight in the Russian capital is thus a simple twilight, uniting day to day, separated from actual morning only by a few brief fiiomeuts. Ita social effect is remarkable. 'Native residents of St Petersburg are rarely in bed earlier than 1*2 o’clock.. To issue forth an hour before midnight, with the park or public garden for erne’s destination, is a fashionable habit sanctioned by the highest precedents. To return from theater or promenade at 1 o’clock a. in. is by no means unusual. The immedi­ ate result is much loss of sleep; the ultimate effect of these late hours ap­ pears in a peculiar form of nervous ir­ ritability. Happily, this period of extreme heat is over in July, though warm noons may persist up to tlie opening days of September. The cold begins ite attack as early as August Day is then vul­ nerable in the narrow neck of twilight which the sun fails to guard, and through this the winds blow from the ice-fields. September evening* not only bring back many of last year’s overcoats; they empty the country resdcnccs and open a social season that is sure to lost until February or even March. In October St. Peterburg is fairly besieged. The householder, in­ trenched behind double windows, re­ plies to the atmospheric attack with crackling logs of pine and birch until the groat Russian stove threatens to bring back a mimic summer ot ite own. But without the enemy is inexpug­ nable. On the coldest days not men, but furs, are abroad. Without precau­ tions of this kind all accidents are sometimes posa ble.

Destruction by Fire of the Poor­ House of Jackson County, Michigan. Five of tho Inmates Cremated and Others Expected to Die from the Shock. [Jackson (Mich.) sproiaL] The Jackson County Poor-Honse, five miles east of this city, burned Sunday morning, and fire inmates perished. Chas. Smith, the keeper, was. awakened by the smell of smoke, and discovered the build­ ing to be on fire. He gave the alarm, and rushed to the women’s department. The fire had made such headway that Mr. Smith found it impossible to effect their escape by the doors, and by the aid of fire-escapes he succeeded in rescuing all but three, who were overtaken by the flamea. He then proceeded to the men’s department, where no was obliged' to fight the fire and smoke, to render assistance, and succeeded in rescuing bnt two, when tho floor fell in. The inuiates who were saved lost all their clothing except their night-dresses. The night was bitter cold, and they were obliged to remain in the snow for some time before quarters could te> procured fur them. Tho suffering wm terrible, and it is ex­ pected several will die from the shock. Those who perished uro: Melissa Martin, aged 70, insane; Catherine Avenr, aged 73, insane; Mrs. Atkinson, aged 80, insane; Zina Boynton, aged 80; Charles- Elliott, aged 71, blind. The fire originated in the women's kitchen from a defective flue. There were forty in­ mates besides the overseer and family at the time of the fire. The building was nearly new, valued at $12,000. Insurance on building, $8,000; contents, $2,000. Tbe rescued were brought to this city, where they were property oared for. John Doherty, tha hired man, brought three of *\ho lunatics down tho fire-escape in his arms, thus saving their lives. An imbecile boy, 19 years of age, was found in bed and rescued by means of the fire­ escape. There were only two men, besides the inmates, about tho place when the tiro broke out, and they rescued the inmates before other help arrived. William Mills, one of the inmate-c, wa«.the man who first issued Saunders’ spelJing-book. At one time he wm worth $250,000. Much trouble was experienced in rescu­ ing those who were saved, m many of them resisted all efforts in their behalf. By tho time they were out of the building it wm useless to fight tho fiam«w, such head­ way having been gained that the building and most of the contents ware soon in usbea.

[Woahintftou mpsctal to the Cblea«o Timos.) The President haa definitely decided Dot to supply the 'Senate with information re­ garding removals. . A few days afto he wm disposed to send thia information, with an explanation that he did so m a matter of . courtesy, and not a matter of duty, provided, the Senate asked for it in n manner indi­ cating that it .was looked for simply m a matter of accommodation. But be hoi since reached the conclusion that tho repe­ tition of courtesies of that kind would cre­ ate a precedent that would result in future Senates demanding such information and. future Presidents feeling themselves bound, to give it. The President looks on tiny power of absolute removal m a port of the Presidential prorogativs, and he will not do anything that . will impair that prerogative. He will not, even as a. matter of accommodation, re-enforce tho theory of certain Senators that they have a right to ptum judgment on .the President's removals. Whether appointments be con­ sidered in secret or open sessions will make no difference. Tbe President does not look with favor on the suggestion that executive sessions be dispensed with in considering .appointments, and in cither case he will not, even in nn indirect way, recognize thoright of tbe Sennte to participate with the President in making rqmovaJs. The Sen­ ate committe«v< have not yet applied to the President himself for tbe desired informa­ tion. A Democratic Senator,wiio has l»een con­ sulted by nn immediate friend of the Presi­ dent as to the situation with respect to con­ firmations, says that the President &scided to instruct the Cabinet officers not to furnish any information as to suspen­ sions. nnd that be does not . believe the'President -will change his mind. Tho same Senator is confident, from statement* which the Republican Senators have made to him personally, that the Republicans will. not recede from their position; that they will insist upon th - production of the ptipeni; that they will certainly, in cases of refusal, robjMrna tho Cabinet officers with n sum­ mons duceM tecum, and that it is possible even that the contest may go so far that the Republicans may choose to attempt to place tlie Cabinet officers ta contempt in tlie evont that they shall refuse to produce the papers. They may not go as'for as that, but they are pot likely to confirm any of the appoint­ ments made in coses of suspension. ■ The Preshient anti tlw Kight-Hour Law. [Wouhlngtou special.] At a recent meeting of the Committee on. Lnlxir of the House of Kepresmtutives statements were inode that the spirit of tho eight-hottr law w.ts being openly violated, ignored, or evaded in certain of the Gov­ ernment departments, und Chairman O'Neill was euqiowervd to present to tlie House n. resolution of inquiry directed to tbe various Secretorii s asking in tlir.-e: terms whether the law was being enforced by them. Fend­ ing tho introduction of the resolution Mr. O’Neill sought on audience with the Preai­ dent, which was granted, and lasted for over an hour. On the'mutter of the eighthour law the President said: I iwlieve that the law te a sound cue and a Cotx! one. end that it should be cilfarcod to ths letter. I have no Infonnetion rvgardioft in. stances of Ita viotatton or eranion, but If sueix iiiHt&nces are )ireaontod to me I will woe that the abuse ia remedied, nud thr full spirit of the law ia enforced, which I tnulrrxUuid to be to pay workmen in the Government emplov for eight hours' work dally what ia paid outaido of the Government employ for n full day's work. Tbe Government cwnfli afford to set tbo example of non^-uforcemont and non-oi>a«rvance cf ita own euaettaonto The President further said: I apj>reclnio<l.the effect upon tbo mechanics of the country of tbe constantly inervaaing ueo of labor-saving macliincry. and I can think of no more practical relief for the employed surplus labor than the occupation by it of the public lands. I do not bealtate p> say that I am heartily in favor of any feasible plan for thr> encourage­ ment and tuMistance of proapoctive American settlers upon tho public domain by the Government. In this connection the President expresood some very radical views upon the subject of the occupation of vast tracte of public land by foreign capitalists. The President seemed desirous of impressing upon Mr. O'Neill his willingness to heartily co-oper­ ate with Congress in any efforts it may make to elevate the working-class and improve the social condition of the bread-winners. TARIFF REVISION. The Ways nud Means Committee Almost Heady tas Report a Hrvrane Bill. [Washington special.] The Ways and Means Committee now hopes to be able to report a tariff bill much earlier than seemed probable a few clays ago. A large jnirt of the parliamentary work, including general information and computations, that wm done two years ago is still available', and will largely reduce the labor of working out the details of a new bill. Two years ago Colonel Morrison started out with the assumption that the protectionists hail devoted enough time and talent to the tariff bill to make it substan­ tially symmetrical and projxwly adjusted in the relations of the different parte to each other. Consequently, be merely raised the question of high duties or low ones by the provision that with certain cxecr tions only eighty per cent of the existing duties should be collected. Thereupon the protectionists set up a great clamor that it would be wholly unscientific to leave tho different duties in the same ratio to each other. They discredited the work they had been doing for twetaythree ycara, and which they had just revised with the help of a commission of profeseed experts, by declaring that Mr. Morrison'* bill was a mere botch and utterly unfit for enactment, because it reduced duties not in tho same amounts but in the same ratios, whereas be ought to reduce some duties a great deal mure than others if he were to make any reductions. These candid and straightforward critics -of the horizontal bill’ will soon have, the opportunity to make criticisma^of a diametrically opposite eharaetar/ and do consideration of oansistency will prevent their doing it. The Ways and Me*.as Com­ mittee hope to report a hill within the next two weeks, which will bring tbe bill forward so early in the session that there will be ample time to debate it Th* bill will be rather longer than the horizontal bill,-but a good deal uhorter than a general bill. It will enumerate only the article* the duties on which it is proposed to change. Tbe bill will, in effect, be a good uml like lb« bill of two years ago, except that it will state the new duties instead of expressing the propor­ tion of tbe old duty that tbe new doty u to be. It will not, however, affect quite *o many articles m that t JI did. �' GLADYS’ LAVERS: • Romance of England and Spain. garden j-ath after the slow! i Every object *t« visible i onng lady ir. rsdf think ?

Tbe Bucksvillo (Pa) Village item* last week contained these two items,> one following the other, in the local Dotes: ‘ Tbe citizen* of Marbleton are mourning tha; lo*a<_{ twenty valuable d-jg», poisoned by some miscreant.

Editor Rorke hadn't ’ even noticed tiie peculiar combination ( that might be made with them. The , first intimation he had that his paper had created a sensation was when Butcher Segar came up bis office steps ' three at a time, and, bursting into tbe ’ office, knocked Editor Rorke off the' stool he was sitting on, and then swept the waste papers around tike dying snowflakes with his helpless body. The batcher was torn loose from the astounded and broken-up editor by tbe compositor and devil. “Now, maype, py Cott, you bi mdta me again deoe soaage van a bizen tug maidt op, alretty!" he yelled. “Maype you vos teenk now dot I vn* vou sonuge myselluf, proke on dor ram paitch oudt!

He saw that some of the boys had in­ ter pre tated tbe Dews from Marbleton for the butcher, who was a Dutchman jngUm I said to niy husband: “John, you must take me up to Ilia Preiudent’a deception Ui-day. “What, my dear,” said be, for be wad id wav* very affectionate, “going to tho White House on such a day a* thia, with the wind blowing a regular lizard?

He explained that be wanted a calling card, and we learned that the public deception didn’t begin for two hours.

We took our places in the line of people, and moved into the east room, aud there we saw President Cleveland. He smiled pleasantly and seemed to enjoy himself very much, I can’t describe tbe munificence of that room, or the pretty brie-a-bat*, articles of vertue we saw there. It began to lie very mountainous standing in a line, but at last John came to the President, and shook his hand, and passed on. » The people didn’t seem to take much interest in Mr. Cleveland, but passed on °n after shaking zh iking hands, which didn’t | aveni very polite. .

Martin F. Tupper,Texas.—Tlie poem to which you allude wua written by Julia A. Mooore, better known aa the Sweet Singer of Michigan; The lust stanza is something like tills: “Mycblldhood day* arc past aud gone, And it tills my iicait with pain, To think tiiat youth will never more Retum.Ui me again. And now, kind friend*, what J have wrote, I hope you will paw o'rc And not criticine a* wmc ha* hitherto herc-beforw deme." Miss Moore also wrote a volcme of poems, which the farmers of Michigan are still using ou their potato bugs. She wrote a large number of poems, all more or lens saturated with grief and damaged syntax'. Shu in now said to be a fugitive -from jus lice. We should learn from this that we cannot evade the responsibility of our acts, and those who write obituary poetry will one day l>e over­ taken by a bobtail sleuth hound. or a Siberian Nemesii with two rows of teeth.

You coaid hIno get trusted for a new dress, per­ brllr. It scums that the youug man hod made an euemy of a young man who has an office so near that hu can overlook his movement*. A few days ago th« young man’s bride rtccivewl xd anonymous letter saying: “As new n groom os your busband ought not to have a young la­ dy call on him in his office, aud he ought not to take her in his arm* aud kiM her. Wednesday, IklSu. m.” The young lady was nearly heartbroken. She cried until her eyes were red, and when her lord came home upbraided •him bitterly. She showed him tbe let­ ter, and aa be didn’t have any explainatiuutbnt a denial, 'matters began to look very interesting around his home. He couldn’t think who could tell such a falsehood about home, aud he started down town in a very moody condition. As lie *at in tlie corner of tbe car brood­ ing over his trouble, an Idea suddenly struck him. It hod the rme effect on him a* though he had sat dowu on a pm. In nn instant he wa* running at full speed homeward, while the passen­ gers in tbe car were, congratulating themselves ou their narrow escape from a dangerous lunatic. Bursting into his wife’s room he fairly danced with de­ light aa he exclaimed: “Don’t you remeruber? you were in my office Wednesday.moruing: you were the young Woman 1 kissed'!” Peace now reigns, but be bod a close call. AN ATTRACTIVE SIGH. Some years ago there lived in a base­ ment on Thompson street, iu New York, a carpet beater of African de­ cent, whose name was Adam Strong. At the beginning of his professional career he considered it unnecessary to go to the expense of Laving a sign painted, but after losing several jobs through would-be natrons being un­ able to find hi* place of abode, he de­ cided that a sign must lie obtained, and believing himself to be fairly proficient iu the art Of making letters, he under­ took the task uf painting the sign him­ self. His intention was to have the first line read “Adam Strong” nnd the sec­ ond one “Carpet Sweeper.” But he made tho mistake of allowing too much -space between the flint aud second let­ ters of tlie word Adam nnd to get in the eight other letters on the s tole liiia it was necessary to place ilium closer together. The result was that the sign when finishod appeared a* follows: PuHUhed even- Ssuirday oornhig Nzws building ,m Maple <,p \ G. A. Trumsn’* «*ore. I am going out of Business.

The following account of tlie Hensatlous of hanging is *ent us by a corre­ spondent who is u member of a kind of “Suicide Club.” nnd was actually, be says, partly hung the other day in the prejieuce of several friends: \ A good stont rope had beep obtain­ ed. Tnis was securely fastened to the rafu-rs with my hands to make sure it would not break. Then 1 permitted myself to be blindfolded and mounted ou a chair. For the moment, I admit, 1 was weak enough to turn pule nnd tremble. I soon, however, recovered my presence of mind, and putting my bead through the tioore, I gave the sig­ nal. I felt the chair drawn from un­ der me. There was a great jerk, and I felt a violent pain in my neck, a* though my scarf hup all ol u sudden become to tight. Now comes tlie most curious part of my experivuce. After the first feeling of torture, which was I admitdecidedly severe, I lost conscious­ ness. 1 seemed to be transported into a new world, more beautiful than any thing imagined by tlie poets. I whs swimming, I thought in n sea of oil. The feeling was exquisitely delicious. As I swam easily and without an effort through the liquid mass I noticed afar oft au island of the most glorious emer­ ald green in color. This it was my wish to reach. I swam lazily and con­ tentedly on. The oea kept eveiy in­ stant changing ita hue, though ft renained toe same substance throughout, at oue instant it was a maim of gold, as if toe sun was shining brilliantly upon it. The next moment it was a vivid blood-red; but there was nothing terrible or disgusting about this new color. It kept changing, in fact to all the hues of the nunlxiw, yellow and gold being tbe predominent tinta. I got nearer and nearer to the isle. Aa I approached it there sprang outsnddenly from the ground a num tier of peo­ ple strangh transfigured whose faces seemed to be known to roe. 1 at lost reached the land.

Some Simple Tbicks.—Allow mo space to mention tho following, which, though simple, always catch on, even Among the old folks: Tell tho company that you can crawl into a pint bottle. Doubt being ex­ pressed, you place a pint bottle iu tho middle of the floor. Step outside .the door, get down on your hands. and knees, and crawl in to the bottle. Place a piece of apple on a table and cover it with a hat; tiien state that yon can eat the applo without removing tho haL Ask tho company to gather round the table, after which* you place your head beneath the table and make a munching noise. Withdraw your head and say, "Wasn't that neatly done?” Some ono is certain to raise the hat, when of course you grab the apple and eat it—without removing tho hat You can vary it by placing it in three pieces on the table* and covering them with three hate; raising the hate you place tho pieces in your mouth and eat them. Say you will how bring thorn directly under any of the three hats selected, which in done by placing tho bat selected on yonr head. Take a chestnut (this is one) in each hand. Extend your arms and say, “I can bring both chestnuts into one hand without touching my hands together." You do it by placing ono on a table and picking it up with tho other hand. Get the Heaviest person in the room to stand on a 1-hair. Ask him his weight Tell him that although ha is a heavy man you can easily remove him from the chair—in fact, you can bring him down orf a feather. You make your word good by stepping to one side and taking from your pocket a feather. Yon take this to him, and calling bis attention to tho fact that the tine white portion is down, say: “I have kept my word; I have brought you down on a feather." ’ I will close with one I used on the occasion of my boyish debut as a magician fourteen years ago. You have two plates, one with a clean bot­ tom, the other with the bottom blnckv ctied over a lamp. Ask a boy to step forward. Tell him you are about to mesmerize him. Give him the black­ ened plate, and tell him to hold it above his head. You hold tho clean plate above your own head. Tell him to Listen his eyes upon yon and do as you <lo.» You nib your forefinger on the bottom of your plate and then touch it to tho tip of your nose. Ho does tho same and leaves a black spot on tho tip of his nose. Continue this as your own ingenuity suggests, and. you will surely convulse your auditors with the fantastic designs which appear on the face of your prctcndedtaiesmorized subject Ot course you will close it by taking his plate and holding a pocket-mirror before Ids face. It is worth oceans of money to witness the look ho will give yon when he realizes how neatly he has been taken in. The Problem of Human Flight. The subject of my paper—flying ma­ chines—in a general way, is of interest to everybody. Bnt to those who have given it more particular attention, it is 4iot only interesting but fascinating, and a little dangerous. The pathway has l»een strewn with wrecks; and I fear there is a feeling prevalent that, after all, it leads nowhere in particular, unless it be to the almshouse or lunatic asylum. Still, there are times when we heart­ ily envy the birds their wonderful power. I remember in reading Mr. YVallaoe's book on tho Amazon, that he was once standing on the shore of the mighty river, confronted by an im­ penetrable wall of green, concealing within itself, doubtless, no end of new plants and beetles; and when a gayly painted macaw came sailing lazily along and disappeared behind the tree-tops without any sort of trouble, he gavo vent emphatically to the general wish to fly, and to a feeling of surprise that apparently so simple a problem should have remained so long unsolved. I propose here to give an account of some of the attempts to fly that havo been made in the past, and are now be­ ing made; and to try to explain the principle involved, and why sucoecs has not been-achieved. The old Greeks and Romans very sensibly apjx»r to havo been content to give the gods and birds and butterflies a monopoly of the sir; for, excepting the story of D/edalns and Icarus, littlo mention has been made by classical writers of attempts to fly, or of flying ntachinea. Daedalus, it seems, had killed a man in Athens, and with his unfortunate aon lied to Crete, where King Minoa very properly detained him; but, defeathers cemented with wax. launched himself into the air, and took a bee-line for Greece.

The be.1 pbriuam. now el! ejre, ie rccunuueliding nbtmdaui sunshrne for the pruservatum anil reatoratioa of health. So chvap, mtay, apd jilraunt a inedichro would at cm to need no fur­ ther recomun-ndftt on, yet there are many people who can hardly be induced to adopt it, except in homo ophat c doses. By a variety of means, they contrive to throw shadows tliat effect­ ually exclude from thamselyou, their fun-.ides and their guests most ot the rays of sunlight, which would other­ wise render tjie.r homes cheerful and wholesome. Something of the same kind is large­ ly practiced with regard to the joy and glad:.ess that surround humanity, nnd that may justly be called the sunshine of life. Kyery one desires this sun­ shine in a general way for himself and for others; many seek it eagerly in their own way, and many complain" bitteily that so little of it falls to their lot. Yet multitudes ot these very peo­ ple are daily engaged in putting up barriers against it—in throwing sliauows that spoil and annul as pinch of it as comes within their influence. One of the most common ot these shadows is that of discontent. Each one poasusses many actual sources of gladneos, and imagines s multitude of others which are ant of his i each. Now, to dwell in the first of these, to realize them keenly, to rejoi e in them gladly, to recount them and emphasize them, is happiness. To dwell in the latter, to be continually thinking of the things wo have not got, or the advantages that we never had, is certain unhappiness. ' One man has good health, good hab­ its. and a strong arm, with which to cleave his way through life. Others look upon his condition with envy, but he values it lightly. He is occupied with wishing he had more money, or a larger business^ or more jiowerful friendi Another man is wealthy, and all that money can command is h*is;-but his mind is full of things that money cannot buy—health, or genius, or love —these he fancies are all that can make life worth living. Another has a good home, fair prospects, and many friends, but ho has suffered a bereavement which he allows to cloud the whole, or he has failed in one undertaking, and all other successes ho counts as noth­ ing. So in innumerable cases, what is locking is hold up continually before the sight, and, like a heavy curtain, it shuts out the real sunshine of life, which ia plentiful enough to envelop us all in brightness, if we will but dwell in its rays. . Another shadow which spoils the sunshine of life is thnt of selfishness. It is a truth which is often declared nnd seldom beliovod, that tho seeker of happiness at tho expense of others is alwaya eventually unsuccessful, while be who strives to make' others glad is always the happiest of mortals. Men are, on the contrary, constantly fancy­ ing that life's sunshine will fall short, and that some ouc else will get theirshare, and in tho strngglo to gain more they frequently lose ail. The sun in the heavens is no niggard, parceling out hia rays to ho oaughl by tho most agile and appropriated to their u«e alone; his light and warmth are plenti­ fully poured upon all, nnd the same is true of the sunshine of life. No effort to snatch some of its rays from another for ourselves can ever bo successful, tine may indeed overshadow another's life by selfishness and injustice, but he shall, even more surely, overshadow his own in the process. One shadow of which men are far too little conscious is carelessness. People may lw amiable, kind, and oven unsel­ fish, and yet, by a lack of watchful cure in fulfilling their own duties, they may shut out the sunshine from many lives. A littlo carelessness in the archi­ tect’s plan or the builder's work, and many lives arc destroyed or health broken up, inflicting misery on thou­ sands. borne officer has simply ne­ glected a single duty, and the battle is lost or the ship is sunk. The merchant, meaning no injustice, is only careless in contracting debts, and he fails, bring­ ing poverty and distress to hundreds of innocent sufferers. Many a careless wife aud mother i' responsible for the ruin of husband or children And the de­ struction of the homo. Dork and thick are the shadows cast by unfaithfulness in work and looseness in obligation. There are other shadows, less dense, perhaps, but sufficient to cloud, if not to bar out, the sunshine of life. There is a gloomy disposition, which may be nt first an inherited misfortune,"but which, when indulged aud encouraged, becomes a voluntary aim There is a spirit of. fault-finding and criticism, with its irritating and stinging power, nnd there is a captious aud 'seiflan oversensitiveneaa thnt is always ready to imagine affronts where none are in­ tended. There ia a coldness and pride that kills affection, aud an ungenerous love that is ever claiming more than is duo and destroying spontaneity. Many a home is thus darkened and chilled, and many a friendship strained and broken. Let us then strive, as far as possible, to withdraw all these and other shad­ ows that deprive humanity of the blessed sunlight.

Overcoat Cold.*. Nothixg seems more simple than to adapt clothing to the weather by the addition of an overcoat, light or heavy, an tbe occasion requires. It must not, however. l»e forgotten that, in propor­ tion os the garment superimposed upon tho ordinary clothes is effective in pro­ ducing a sensg of warmth, it acta by ar­ resting the evaporation of warm vapoi from tho body. This warm vapor con­ tinues to rise through the ordinary clothing, but it is prevented from es­ caping, and the clothes are saturated with it. The general effect is well enough while tho overcoat is kept on, but the moment it ia removed evapora­ tion recommences, and the l>odj. is placed in a “cooler" constructed on Ape principle adopted when a damp efih is wrapped round a* butter dish, the vapor passing off, attracting the heat, nnd leaving the contents of tha cooler refrigerated. , The point to make clear is that the overcoat, let it be fashioned and ventil­ ated as it may, does not prevent the un­ derclothing from baing saturated with moisture, but actually tends to make the moisture accumulate therein. This is proved by the sense of genial warmth felt while the overcoat is worn, aud the evidences of perspiration easily per­ ceived under the arms aud at tho sides of the cheat particularly, immediately after the overcoat has been removed Moreover, we take off the overcoat when we enter a warm house, and precisely at the moment when muscular activity is suspended. A very little considera­ tion will suffice to convince tbe com­ mon sense thinker that nothing can well be worse managed than this pro­ cess, both as regards its nature and ths time and conditions of its operation. It is opposed to all the canons of health to allow the clothing to become satu­ rated with perspiration and then to takf off external covering and suffer rapid cooling by evaporation, while, if it wars lyeigued to do this at the worst possiule time, probably none worse could b< found than when muscular avArroae har been discontinued. Tbe suggestion w< have to offer is, that it would be far better jxriicy to wear only one ooai at e time, and to make whatever changt may be necessary by removing a tlrin coat and replacing it by a thkker/onf when going out of doors, and the re­ verse when coming in. If, instead ot coata of different thicknesses, according to the weather and conditions general­ ly, they would avoid ths danger of cool­ ing by evaporation; tbe garments satu­ rated with moisture would be removed and drv off the body instead of on it We believe no inconsiderable propor­ tion of the "colds,” attacks of lumbago, and even more formidable results ot what are popularly called “drills," msj be traced to the practice of wearing overcoats which arrest the ordinary process of evaporation, caqge the cloth ing within to be saturated with accnrouiated perspiration, and are then re tamed by such change of cohta as ths conditions rnqigra ■ �THAT CTIPID Vai.AGElL In different 1-.1 m Ute pot near tn.knudtta. 1? tt gives >tant nnedx water; if there U a dull «<mnd, ifiero ta still mototnro enough to »n»tain tbe ptaul Blarita must not niala m IInm ItotmltoM, Kttebu itatup clixniy d»yn_ Ou the Other lu>zxl, the •'a.rtli tnu>»ti>.>t ho allosud to dryom ratimly. tioa «f Health. gradually."

It hat in itself >50 worth of silver prepared by the melter for the coiners’ use, the shape of a bar twelve inches long, two inches wide and half an inch thick. It' has a rapid, ■ varied and rather trying experience be­ fore it is on its wav into dollar ahape. The first room in lbw coiners’ depart­ ment was fall of artisans rolling, drawng. cutting, and milling the ingots. Thorough sheer force ta the first ot tho coiner a art exercised on the ingot That which the visitor had fallowed waa inserted between the jaws of two huge rollers and slowly went through a proc­ ess of deglutition down an iron throat Twelve times it had to go through this ordeal, the pressure being increased by tho narrowing of tho space through which the ingot passed by a sixteenth of,an inch each time. It is then twico its formtr length and so reduced in this press that when split in the middle tho two bars which are produced uro just tho thickness of a dollar. The rolling process imparts a heat to the ruct&l which nocesitates the use of handling it and a brittleness to over­ come which another trip to the furnace ita required. Some coiner of imperial Romo was doubtless a long time hammering.out ••udjs’ thirty pieces of silver. Tho machine which was working across tho room from the rollers cut out in tho minute which the visitors lopked at it Just eight times as many .pieces as udos sold his master for—24b, all told —using up in tho process about ten •bars of metal which had been bested in a furnace and straightened in a draw­ ing machine before they reached the cutter. “It’s like a girl cutt'ag out cookie’,” said Colonel Maurice as he watched tho big maebino clanking silver like a greedy boy. Each bar ot cuttings was bent into three folds by a workman as the machine finished with it and stowed in a box for a roturn to the melters. Then tho milling machine was set whirling. It in a thick circular piece of steel with grooved edges, revolving in a circular hoop of steel, with the in­ side edges also grooved. A grist of tho metal disks from the cutter was dropped into a tube, of which tho bottom was the space between the whirling and tho stationary, grqovcs. Then the milling machine ’ began scattering the disks from s elit in its circular side. The disks when they camo out had a raised edge on each side. They began to look like dollars. Verv dull and zinc-liko looking dollars they were, however. Tho visitors followed them into an ad­ E' ining room, where they were plunged to an acid bath and then placed in a revolving wire cradle with a quantity of hot sawdust. There they were left, turning brighter and more' dollar-liko every moment The adjusting-room, where tho tour next led, looked not unlike a meeting of a Dorcas society, for at least a dozen women—matronly locking for^ho most part—sat and stitched in knqta of three and four, talking meantime in low tones. “Tiiey are sowing coin bags.” said Colonel Maurice in explanation. But of all tho flying fingers in tho busy room, tho most sentient and human seemed the steel digits of the coin press. It seemed a satire on humanity to ono watching the^workings of this machiuo that it should do so muctf- and the mortal who ruled it should do bo little. All the share tho quiet lady-l'ke look­ ing woman who sat before tho press had in ita operation waa in placing pile after pile of bright silver moons in its tube. Then at every three-quarters of a second the two steel fingers of the machine would catch the bottom moon of the pile, pilot it on its course to its place between tho dies, and leave it there. Then, with a pressure of sixty tons exerted, every three-quarters ot a second the head of Liberty above camo down on tho eagle beneath and tho sil­ ver moons received their impress. Pile’ on tho table at tho far end of tho room the viaitors saw heaps of dol­ lars waiting to be marshaled lorth in weighty columns to their tremendous work in’ the world. Four ordinary rnortib—a xnan and three women— stood there with mechanical fingers busy among those dormant forces. “They can count the output of $100,­ 000 a day," said Colonel Maur.ce. “No, it doesn't require a special knack, only experience."—Philadelphia Press.

Thia lizard is found in Asia, Africa, South America and in other countries, fiut imt in tho United States. It is use­ ful in destroying vermin, and can easily climb walls. It lays its eggs under rafters, in the thatches, and under leaves. It is a mistake to think of scorpions as very poisonous; they are a little venomous. Bird spiders are somewhat venomous. Large toads which have been called poisonous have no venom. Among all the lizards there is only one, a Mexican, which, venomous, and there is some doubt of him. Most of these animals, when ir­ ritated, excrete • venomous saliva, and even frogs will attempt to bite when troubled. • Toads can tell the weather better than the Weather Bureau.

Water and Explosives in Mining. Attention is called by the Coal Trade Journal, in an elaborate article, to the fact that the value of water as an aid to blasting, when used in connection with explosives, is rapidly becoming recognized in this country, as well aa in tho larger mines and quarries of Europe. Among tho favorable points pertaining to this process special men­ tion is made of the fact that the pow­ der, in exploding, bursts the tube con­ taining the water, and—careful estimates showing—with increased power or ex­ plosive violence; this is because tho rending force is extended through th® water, in accordance with certain wellknown principles of hydrostatics, over the enlarged interior area of the bore hole, due to the space occupied by the water tube. A much larger quantity of ti:e material to be mined or quarried is thus brought down or loosened with a smaller quantity of the explosive used. Again, the heat given off by the burn­ ing of the powder and surrounding gases converts a larger portion of'the water into steam, the elastic force of which assists ih the operation of blast­ ing, and the steam and remaining water together extinguish tlie flame and flash of the powder.__________________ History of the Estate.

There ia a popular prejudice against evapo­ rated fruit which has been whitened by tho use of sulphur. Tbare ia hardly a reasonable basis for thia prejudice. The fumes of sulphur are undoubtedly unpleasant if not unhoolddul to breathe, and this may be a good reason why persons with weak lungs should not frequent evaporating houses. But when tho fruit is whitened by means of sulphur we do not breathe it, and, as is well known, sulphur is a pcpular remedy in family practice for many <ti ■oases. _________ At a meeting of the Maanacbuaetts Horticul­ tural Bociety Mr. Hersey gave an account of two oreliarda whicla be planted' to ascertain whether it is best to Keep apple trees in culti­ vation or to mulch them, aa nature ikx?n.

When 'the cultivated orchard waa ready to bear, many of the trees which had grown most rapidly were injured by bursting of the bark, and some wars wholly killed, but be saved a majority of the trees.

Meanwhile, a wee figure was toiling up the road from an adjacent house. She was evidently a fugitive, for she was hatleas, and her stockings had fallen down from her knee and were rolled about her diminutive shoes, leav­ ing the little white legs exposed to the chill autumn air. A mass of tangled golden hair floated back in the breeze, and tbo sweet violet eyes wore welling over in great tears, which rolled down her ruddy cheeks and plashed upon the little bonds holding tight to her breast a ragged dolt Great sobs convulsed the tiny creat­ ure os she half ran along the dusty rood. “Oh, Dod, tell me where my mamma is," the baby implored. And ever aud again that plaintive little cry broke forth: “Oh,Dod, tell me where my mamma is." No one hod yet missed her from home, so there was no pursuit. Presently she arrived at the* house with the updrawn curtains. It was on­ ly a few rods from her own home, but to the weary little feet tho distance had been tremendous.

[Houiton (Tex.) rpecial.) • For several days past Mr. Kyle Terry, a haafisomo man, ataiut 26 years old. whose home ta near Richmond, in Fort Bend County, has l>r«-n visiting friends in this city. He has been indulging in liquor pretty freely, and Inst night become somcwknl intoxicated. Officer Williams arrested Terry against the latter's protcst.taking him to the station, but was released on tho pledge that he would appear before tho Mayor and answer to the charge of being disorderly. This morning ho came upon Officer Williams, who was going toward tho Court TIoubc. Tho very sight- of Williams seemed to drive Terry crazy. Ho sprang toward the officer, uttering a terrible oath. Williams naw he was confronting a man crazed with drink, and jnmped behind a paMfing colored man. When tho negro saw Terry advancing, pistol in hand, he b#cnno frantic and tried to run, but Williams dung to his back with deadly tenacity. The colored man from sheer fright, it ta thought, fainted, and with Williams still clinging to him they rolled off the sidewalk info the gutter? Terry fol­ lowed. becoming apparently more excited at Williams’ effort to escape. Bending over the prostrate negro, Terry emptied his self­ cocking six-shooter into the prostrate form of hta victim. He literally pumped lead into Williams without moving his arm. Each ball entered tho body of the unfortu­ nate man. The effects were noted by peo­ ple who witnessed the affair from a dis­ tance, who say the body seemed to jump a few inches from tho ground each time a bullet penetrated it. The fifth bail passed through the heart, and Williams rolled over dead, one hand still grasping the negro, who Iky in an almost comatose condition, an unwilling witness to the awful crime. Terry was immediately arrested without re­ sistance and taken to jail. Intense excite­ ment hau prevailed here all day, cud on extra guard has been placed inside the Jail to prevent possible lynching.

GERMan rem [Seattle (WMhlngtou Territory} telegram.] *Ai*iaat the long-drawn-out anii-Cbineoo agitation hu reached a culminating point so far m Seattle fa concerned. It was thought by many when the United States troapa were withdrawn from here that tho agitation was dead, and m weeks went by without the oommiswon of any overt act, this opinion was strengthened Ah the event shown, how­ ever, tho feeling was not very dormant, nnd the agitators have been quietly laying plans nil the while. An effort wm made to put these plans Into execution to-day, though with what ancceas can not be raid. An anti-Chinese meeting was bold lost night, at which a committee was appointed for the ostensible purpose of visiting Chi­ natown and ascertaining whether tho city sanitary regulations were prop­ erly observed by Chinamen. This com­ mittee commenced ita work at 7 o'clock this morning, headed by Acting Chief ot Police Murphy, and, accompanied by au enor­ mous crowd which bad apparently come together by previous understanding, it pro­ ceeded to Chinatown. Tbo mode of pro­ cedure was iimple. The committee would approach a Chinese bouse and knock at the door. When the occupants appeared they were linked questions concerning tbe observance of the cubic air and other.city ordinances. While the conversation was in progress a crowd would enter thu house ana begin packing tho contents upon a wagon which would appear at that junct­ ure; It was useless for the Chinamen to resist, and they generally acquiesced with as good a grace ns possible. When their movable goods were loaded in the u agon they were also placed on board and driven to the ocean dock, where the Queen of the Pacific was lying rtiady to sail for San Francisco. Not the slightest warning of this movement had been given, and tho authorities were totally unprepared for it. The police force generally tided with the crowd, and made no effort to stop the work of removal. Sheriff McGraw was soon on tbo acene, nnd commanded tho crowd to disperse, but it paid no uttenrion to him. When he would collect a few citizens and attempt to interfere, the crowd would cease operations nt Hint point, but enrry them ou without cessation in other quart rs. This continued for several hours. Sheriff Mc­ Graw, Judge Green, and Mayor Yeslvr made such efforts os they could in behalf of the law, but without avail. Tho Governor issued a proclamation “warning all persons to desist from breach of the peace, aud that peacefully disposed ]>enions shall retire to their homes, except such persons who are disposed to nssistthe Sheriff and the duly constituted civil tiuthojities in maintaining law nnd order, until request all persons who ore disposed to as­ sist in maintaining order to enrol! them­ selves under tlie Sheriff immediately for that. purpose. Furthermore, I order tho military of this city to immediately place themselves under arms, and that the com­ manding officers of such companies report fortwith to tho Sheriff of King County." This was read to the crowd, and was re­ ceived with a howl of defiance. It had ab­ solutely no pacifying effect. An attempt w as then made to ring the fire-bells, but they were soon silenced. Two local companics of militia aud three companies of home-guards, organized at the time the Unitea States troops were withdrawn, how­ ever, responded as quickly aa possible, but by the time they were ready for action there seemed nothing for them to do. About four, hundred Chinamen were huddled together iu a warehouse on tho ocean dock, and an immense crowd ]>revcnted them from returning to their homes. Indeed, the majority of them showed much inclination to remain, os they were thoroughly cowed, ^ind eager to get away. Officers of the steamship, how­ e’er, refused to receive Chinamen without tickuta. They prepared hot-water hooe, nnd took every precaution to defend tho vessel from any attempt to force the China­ men on board. In this dilemma a collectiou was raised and enough subscribed to pay the passage of about a hundred. These were received on board, each one expressing a desire to go and decliniug toe offers of offi­ cials to protect them from violence if they remained. The Mayor of Seattle and other prom­ inent citizens telegraphed to Vancouver burrocks asking General Gibbon, command­ ing the Department of the Columbia, for troops. _____________ ___________ QUEER CASE.

In outline, their policy will be to delay the bill as much as possible in committee, ixrth by ameuibnent aud by insisting upon hear­ ing oral argument from the interests that would be affected by the proposed change in the existing law? The real object of this is to keep the bill from beiug reported to the House until Ute in the session. They will also insist upon having full discussion in the House, which means that they will kill a* much time as possible, so that the lull may reach the Senate too late for con­ sideration this session, if it reaches that body at all. The general idea approved by the ’Republican leaders is that a policy of orderly obstruction should be pursued. The Democratic members of the committee have already decided that it is not necessary to grant on audience to persons who desire to make arguments against the bill, but but that in exceptional cares it may be only fair to hear oral statements. Printed state­ ments can be laid before the committee at anytime. _____________________ KILLED BT EEXfUAN BANDITS. TOLklMJ.’ of the liquor traffic.

Knowing Chicago to be a great, wicked city, I have alv uys been on my guard for - sharpers, especially when carrying much money, but my watchfulness foiled at one time tp eave me from a very unpleasant ad­ venture, tho experience, however, termin­ ating most favorably.’ The event took place two years ago. Late one afternoon, while on my return from the wholesale -house of Marehnll Fteld ± Co. to my hotel, I was detained for a minute at the corner of Clark and Jbuji■cn streets by n clog of earn'-,and vehicles. As I stood watching for an opportunity to cross over, I noticed a tell, gaunt mon gazing upon me intently. A fearful scowl was upon his face, and tbe bony fingers were clenched firmly into the palms of hit white hands. . wiwn suddenly a change came. The strange-looking man came quietly to my side, the hard look left his fretun «, and • soft smite took its place. A well-fliled morocco purse was suddenly slipped into nxy hand and the man said hurriedly: “That# yours, Thompson. I forgive you; 1 had time to open my lips in pro­ test, before I could tell him that my name was not Thompson, the fellow had darted ♦way, mingled with the crowd, and was lost I wm perplexed. My first thought was that a followed pick­ pocket had forced the nurse into my hand So shield himself, aud that I would soon bo ♦Treated os a confederate. Glancing about me I discovered no one ■watching. All seemed to have individual -•flaire to attend to, and not a policeman waa in sight. Ktill holding the fat, soft purse exposed in my hand, the hotel was reached. ' An hour spent in my room studying over ■Ore affair did no sort of good. The simple facts existed, that wus all, and reflection in any direction brought no plausible, at least •atisfactory, solution to tho problem. That the puree had been stolen there was no doubt. And why it had been given to m«, ar why the thief should wish to forgive Thompson and give tho article to him. of coarse I could not determine. After half an hour's deliberation, a reso­ lution was formed to find tho owner of the pocket-book. I would give it into tho earn of tho hotel-koeper and advertise. As I reached the sfaircaM at the end of the long hall, a new idea came, to me, and I hastened back to my room. I decided to examine the contents of the purse before letting it go out of mv pos­ session, make a memorandum of what it contained, then I could tell if accuruhdy .descrilx’d by any applicant, or if tampered with while out of my hands. The purwo contained only a few dollars fa money, but, mercy! what a multitude of ■other articles! There were bits of sample silks, a glove­ hook, recijxes for frosted cake, n little plain ring, a few small pearls, bits of ribbon, ana several calHug-cords. The purwe certainly belcoged to a woman. The cards were all alike, and bore in fine script the name of Lena Suthern. The plan of finding the owner was ♦hanged again. I would write to Lor* Suthern, general delivery, Chicago, and await the re-ult. A letter was accordingly placed in the postoffice that evening. It was brief, a simple statement that I was in possession of u puree which contained cards bearing her namsx. The day following when I came in for dinuer.tbe hotel clerk told ma that a lady had been waiting for some time to see me fa the parlor. Entering the room but one person -was •to be seen. A lady «r,t upon n sofa nr ar tho window— * young lady of remarkable beauty. As the light of midday streamed through •fixe half-curtained casement, it fell ujxjn •my ideal of a supremely lovely face. So Bwe» t and so bright was it that I stood ♦nd gazed upon her rudely before speaking. She evidently noticed my staring and "hesitancy, for she tnnxed away for a mo­ ment and then arose. “Are yon the gentleman who wrote this line to me?” she asked, extending the letter <rf the evexxing before. I bowed my answer. “I will dcscrilw the purae," she said, spiotly, and proceeded to do so very mi­ nutely. I handed her the fat little morocco purse, ♦nd opening it with nimble fingers shosaid, “I shall be very giod to reward you, kind ■sir, and------ " ’ “Nothing of tbe kind," I returned. “I have KuflJritsnt moans for all of my wants, ♦nd it gives me great picture to place in your hands tbe article that came into nn pOMwssion fa a very strange manner." She started a Idtle, then composed her­ self, and without u qneation moved toward the door! “You will accept my thanks?” she said, *o soMy and uxnmcally that I could hardly frame words for reply. • During tixe very brief minutes that she had been before mu I had feasted njxm her ♦npreac loveliness, and 1 did not wish the ♦pell broken so suddenly. More than a decade of yaara before this ent I Lad met at St. Paul a bright, chwery rl of sixteen, aud we l»oth lost our young wrte. ' . For .two bUsafnl months we walked, talked, ti«bj>d. and gathered flowers togrther. I wore garlaada of the sweetest prairie beauties and placed them *• a crown npou the queenly brad bf the brown-haired and blue-eyed "Allie Floyd, and she told me «t> tenderly of her new-bonx love that I be­ lieved my bliss w tod^Wforerer. But the droiuu won t-od#to be broken and a life shadow follow. Suddenly I was called clown the river to attend to a matter of business. Protniring Allie a quick return, I left Hie £rl at the landing as the steamer swept out to the current and awny. My absence from St. Paul was prolonged into weeks. As I was on the wing nearly all of tho time I did not hear from xay little friend, and when I did go up the river again ‘ the Floyd family had left for their New England home. The cause of the sudden departure was the illness of Allie. • After a month's loneliness I wrote a letter to the place which was remembered ns lhe girl’s home. To this nc reply ciune. Four more weeks passed, and I wrote the postmaster of SUverbold and received the prompt intelligence that, owing to the death of their daughter and the ill-health of the mother, Mr; and Mrs. Floyd had gone to Europe. ■ Tins intelligence struck mo like a thun­ derbolt; it crushed my spirits, and nearly broke my yoaxxg heart. From that day until the one that I met Lens. Suthern a female face had never been seen that attracted particular interest. This woman I hod just met brought Imck the bright, sweet face of my Allie, and re­ vived my young, pure lore. ( X I loved this -Lena Suthern with al! thv earnestness of my yearning WiL Duriug the wholo aften»6on and night that followed I thought of nothing, dream­ ed of nothing, but tho sweet one who had coipo to mo with the bright angelic face of my boyish idol. One thing I deeply regretted. I hod neg­ lected to ask tho lady for her residence. Mtreel and number. • I would have made some excuse for call­ ing upon her had I obtained the informstion. Writing could not bo resisu d. The let­ ter was addressed an before, but no answer came. I had simply naked for an interview, claiming that certain suspicions I entertain­ ed respecting tho man- who gave me the Vtirse needed verification or refutation, ami begged that I might seo her but for a brief interview. Thinking that, perhaps, fpr some reason tho letter had not reached her. a second ono was sent, but elicited no answer, and so, heavy-hearted I started westward. Absence and business corw did not euro my yearnings, but, if posbible, made my heart grow fonder. I stood it as long as I could, and then wrote Lena Suthern, making a full con­ fession of my love, and, that she might understand how truck devotion could come at first meeting, the story of my ideal, Allie Floyd, wm given her without reserve. My pleadings for an interview were so carnrtt and pitiful that I believed on answer would como. A week passed, and my heart was thrilled. A letter came with a Chicago postmark, a letter n« bulky ns the one I hud sent, and it was addressed in a lady's hand of superior touch and finish. I could not trust myself to open it upon the street, or evoii at the store, and so hastened to xuy room and broke the seal with trembling hand, and doubtless a livid iace. I never shall forget that moment. Had a dagger entered my breast I could not hove been more painfully stricken. From the white and delicately perfumed envelope I drew forth the long epistle I had written to Lenn Suthern—nothing more. My chagrin and nxorwleation wore be­ yond words for expression. ' The margins of tho different sheets were examined for u single word, but it had not been written there. There were marks upon some of the pe^es that looked as if teardrops hoi' fallen. Tliul I known that they were such I could have blessed her for returning it even thus. The summer passed nwav, and tho season came again for visittag Chicago. Back into my old empty-hearted condi­ tion I had settled, feeltag myself a victim of circumstances. There wiw a desperate struggle going on in my- whole nature to live and forget tho face aud form that had rekindled the light of my soul. The bright, liquid eyes of my dead Allie seemed to shtao out to me through those of Lena Suthern. It was really the first love awakened, for had I not known the first I should not have loved the last. Fully doterurined was I to master my heart. ’ No fnrther effort would lie made to meet Miss Suthern, aud yet my stay in Clxicago was prolonged beyond the usual period of n visit. I invented delays, and was slow in mak­ ing purchases. Not a female face passed me unobserved. Really I was hoping, praying to meet by accident lhe lady, even if I could but once more gut a glance at the inspiring face. The meeting came, but at a moment least expected. Lnte one evening, upon turning a corner abrubtly, I found myself face to face with the woman I worshiped. Our coming together was so sudden that both were startled, for the lady recognized me as quickly as I did her. A brief hesitation, and she attempted to posts. My hand was lifted. faltered. “You must not. I cannot be detained," she mud in a soft, musical voice. "What you would say I cannot listen to." ' "Cannot you bear me fora single mo­ went? Yon hare refused to reply to written words of lore, and certainly you can an­ swer one little question, then I will detain you no longer. Is there no hope, not one I started go?"

The winter passed, and one day a Chi­ cago <L,iiy came to me from an unknown squrce. In looking it over, a marked item was. found, which rend as follows; “Duow.vnn.—A m ddle-agol mon, supposed to be insane. loatwxl from tho Clark sir.-: bridge! lost evruuur and. lost his life by the act Tbe body lias boon identified a» that of Edward tiuthem." Tbt* paper was thrown to the floor, and I jMvced up uud down the room, making nil sorts of resolves, none of which were kept. “I would go to Chicago st once," a thing that w.h not done. “I would write imme­ diately," n thing I did not do. If it wm tho husband of Lena Suthern who had died-aud who else but the lady could Lave sent the marked paper--perhaps she would write me. I could not say more to her than I bad. Picking up the paper again I noticed that it was an old one, bearing date of six months before. Then I felt certain it had come from the widow. Only n few weeks passed before my Henson of alternate hope and fear came to a close. A letter came, bearing the same delicate address as the returned one of my own, and it rend: . • “Lena Satliern will see you now Call at No. ----- Waloah avenne. A Friend. " Tho next morning found me in Chicago, uud after the very slow hours ot the fore­ noon wore away, I was ushered into a hand­ some parlor at the number on Wabash ave­ nue designated in the note. L.*nn was there, he» beautiful face raidant with smilmi, and she extended her hand to me as to an old friend. “I con not express my gratitude to you for the privilege you hove granted, a privi­ lege that is the greatest on earth to me," I said, feelingly. “You have an ideal, as it is the right of any person to hare,” she returned, thought­ fully. “Mv life hu been wrapped up fa one ideal? “You told me in yonr letter of your early love, and that that love had been constant —indeed, a port of vour very life—and it was because you had never forgotten Allie Floyd, and because Allie Floyd has never fiSrgottcn yon, that I wrote you-to come to me.” “My Allie Floyd!"

There arc » few p.ople, neverthelwis, who do not profess to prefer tbe pleas nr/wof the waking hours to thuxj o: slumber, however might may bo their visions. But to tbe blind who have iu other days looked out upou tbo bean­ ties of nature aud met their fellows in the fullnexs of sight, ths happiest hours are those wbieh bring to them the < blivioD of sleep and the sweet consola­ tion of dreamland. Superintendent Hall of the Working Home for Blind Men in West Philadelph a said in a conversa­ tion u}»on this aub-jcct: “I have do Eeater pleasure in life, now that I vo lost my sight, than in dreaming, forthen, andjtlie.i only, I catch glimpses of the world about mo. I aux no longer blind. The scales fall from my eTM and I see like other men; see as I end in years gone by before the terrible Affliction came ou mo and shut out the light of day. In dreamland I never soem to have been blind. I am at the ‘home’.to be sure, but, instead of hav­ ing only my fingers and earn to guide me, I can ace the .inmates, and what is stranger yet, although in reality I have never seen one of them, ia my dreams they all appear familiar to mo by sight and not by their voices." This curious experience of Mr. Hall seems to bo that of all pers >na who have become blind after the early years of life have passed. The blind who have become so afilicted from birth never dream of seeing anything. The impressions of their dreams are regu­ lated by tho impressions made and ideas obtained by tbe sense of touch or hearing, of taste and smell. One.o! the most intelligent inmates of the West Philadelphia “Home." who came into tho world blind, says that, although he has read u great deal, he Dever drcams of the things he has read about, aud never dreams of any thing or per­ son with which he has not in some way come :a personal contact. He dreams of music, of the voice* of persons he knows, of such'incident < as might hap­ pen at tbe "home," xir some place « ‘n which ho has a. tually been, but never of incidents in other places or in other lands. Of a landscape, a picture, a tree, or n human be ng he never dreams. Even altnough ho has read descriptions of localities, of natural beauties, of tha spjMiarance of a street or a citv, no idea of what they look like is formed in his mind, and none comes to him fa tho fancies of his sleep. A blind- man has been known to dream of a ghost, and he thus tells the story: “I heard a voice at tho door and I said: ‘i.less me if that ain’t John,’ and I took him by the sleeve; it was his shirt-sleeve I fell and I was afiftid of him. Then I dreamed that he continued to frighten me, as I knew that he was dead. I thought tirnt 1 was being pursued by a ghost. Then I woke up and felt no more." Our blind frie:.d often ilreams of being' out on the street or in the country, but he did not dream that ho saw the street or the scenery in the country; but be felt tho open air of the country and recog­ nized the street because ho was dreaming of one along which he had fro jnently walked. Curious and full of interect us arc the dreams of tho blind rl every condition, there is a class of blind pet.ple whose sleeping impress ous »ro of special in­ terest--that class of unfortunate people who become blind when <tnito young, at a period when external ob cots anil the outward world generally had just begun to make r.n impression upon them. Such blind people sometimes, Biit not always, dream that they can see; but in their vision they see things wii.li the eyes of childhood, and they never dream of any scone or object ex­ cept those which like a dim recollection have remained ia tixu memory from what they actual ly saw before they bec^me blind. A blind man who was strick­ en at the age of five y ears and never visited the country dreams of seeing city streets, city houses, or city parks, but never of country scenery, of a rail­ road, or a river, and so vice versa. As often as not th s class of blind persons dream as if they had never been blind at all, and at other tim«s m if all memory of blindness had juxssed from them. ami, her mother tatag in pcor health, they went to Europe, where they remained sev­ eral years. Many letters had been written by the girl to her lover, but no replies came biiek to "her. In later years she left her father’s house as ho did not fancy the “bor­ der boy," as he called him. Her given name being Lena Albertfoe, the second one by preference was dlibbed to Allia, but Inter tho first name was used. At the age of twenty-five, her parents be­ ing dead, Lena, empty-hearted, married a musical professor who was well-to-do and devoted to her. Two years after the union insanity faul been brought on by a fall which, fractured tbo skull, and frjm that time until tho fatal leap from the bridge he had been her con­ stant care. “My emotion at our first meeting cannot be described," she continued. “ Your search­ ing. earnest glances told that my face had impressed you again." “Then you knew me when we met at the hofeir •’Your letter gave the name." “And why did you not let mo know then that you were Allie Floyd?" “I knew my own heart too well; and be­ sides that, I knew yonr own impulsive na­ ture.

My advice todhe novice ia poultty rais­ ing Mould oe, to follow it simply for pleas­ ure until you acquire a knowledge that will tell you to go ahead. Anybody cun hatch chickens with nn incu­ bator, but it takes a largo amount of science and eternal vigilance to rai«o them. Pat­ rick Henry never said anything more true than his memorable olluaion to the price of n spring chicken and the cost of liberty be­ ing one and inseparable. Patrick no doubt kent a few bona himself. But to the man who' gore into the chicken busineM simply to find steady employ­ ment and lots of pleasure, I say, “Go it you’ll gel there fa both rrejieoti." When the motive in not mercenary the pnreixit is on unbounded sea of blim. w,ith islands of riure delight scattered through it in great uxartence. I don’t think I ever did anything outside of religious duty that gave me greater joj“, though it must be admitted that I made a dose corrom toward baukruptrv while doing it; and joy, although a nice thing to have around when you want to write jioctry, is not equal to salt pork for keeping a man up when he ha* hard work to do. If you want to be happy and get yonr i as yon go along, mine cnlcketis—unless y neighbor's division fenec is had—but if'y.. want to salt down something that can l« used as collateral after awhile, don't do it. I began by trying to raise chickens for sortlid gain that could ba jingled in the pocket, and a more miserable mau yop couldn't have found with a cousteble’s warrant. I then gave it a whirl simply fur fun, and felt glorious right away. It makes all the difference in the world whether your incentive is moonshine or money. When I heard the first chick chirp fa my incubator, and realized clear down to my boots that I was indeed a mother, and had tho document* right there to prove it, in spite of tho cold, unfeeling fact that I was regarded by the world ns a Imld-headed man of much sad­ ness, I felt as thpngh I was worth n million dollars; but when, six months later, I had to pawn my overcoat in mid-winter to buy corn meal, I felt that I had been blessed with altogether too much profuseness in a maternal way to suit the size of my flour barrel. I long nt times to sit down and meditate on things that have made the world gnaw iu Ix ard for ages, but no man with n loaded incubator can take much time to muse, un­ less he puts cotton in his ears, or gets dreadful reckless about consequences. An incubator is one of the most remorselesH things outside of board­ ing school, and for keeping a man from loafing with the clouds it can discount. Ixxtlx a failure of crops and an iron-clad chattel mortgage. When you see a man with hollow ores, boggard cheeks, unshaven face, and lifdres hair, shambling around in an aimless, homeless sort of way, looking as though he hadn't slept, wad;cd, or combed himself for a montl* bet every cent yon can raise that he owns nn incubator, which has just Ix gun to fire its possibilities nt fam with n desperation of energy that u ill kill him if be don't blow tbe light out. That's what it moans to monkey with a hen-roost on scientific principles, and as I love all mankind, I wont everybody to know it When somebody telh’you that the easi­ est ray on earth to 'got rich with quickness is to buy an incubator and plange into the chicken business, pull down the corner of your eye and immediately give him a front view of your back.—Ligc Brnvn in Chi­ cago Ledger.

Preicrvlng Fence-Posts. An English farmer writes: After all that has been advanced in favor of other compounds, it is very doubtful for or­ dinary country work whether there is anything handier, cheaper, or more ef­ fective than common coal-tar for coat­ ing fences and other wood it is desired to protect from tho offocts of tho •weather. Much, however, will depend on the way in which it is used. To cover moist wood with this substance, whether it proceeds from the natural moist uro or atmospheric dampness, is very boil policy. To insure anything like success* in the matter of durability the.wood to bo operated upon must be as dry as possible. This, of course, ia equally true of paint, but it is of tar that we are now sixenking. When the wood-work to bo coated is os dry oa can bo. and tho tar npplic«l hot, there need be little fear that it fail in its pur­ pose. The chief difiicalty lies in the matter of pouts nt the surface of the •oiL Many plans have been tried to over­ come the decay which almost invariably sets in here first. Even hero tar ia valuable; but according to experiment* which have been made to test the Iwst method of applying H, it appears that tbe most satisfactory results have been obtained when the wood is charred. As to'the way in which this charging should be effected, there seems to be scope for ingenuity. One gentleman hsa tried the plan of first covering tbe extremi­ ties of the posts, which are set in tho soil, and then burning the tar off again. This, it is alleged, makes a surface which will resist decay. If this is so, the operation is simple and is worth trying. Tbe charring should be car­ ried to some distance above tho ground level, and after the fenoe is erected the whole of it above the ground can bo coated to make the an|H-aranco rm form.

In an article on this subject the Zier Stock Journal says: It is not safe to feedflsxsoed iu the straw to cow* in calf, unlcaa in very small quantity. And it is not prudent to feed this seed in much quantity to cattle, horses, sheep, or pigs. It is loo laxative as a common feed, but at the same time it is one of the best means at tho feeder's command to insure good health I to his animals. Our correspondent can uae it most profitably by shelling the arod and then grinding one bushel of flaxaoed with fifteen bushels of oats, or oats aud corn; or ho can boil the flaxroed and then mix it, in small pro­ portion, with the oato dr oats and corn. This ration has so small a proportion of flaxseed that there ia no danger of injury, and there ia still flaxseed enough for tlie hralto of the cqw. If tlie flaxseed is boiled, one pint of seed, boiled, will bo enough to mix in the feed for the half pint here given for boiled seed, but after boiling it has a stronger effect, and it would not be safe to feed more per cow, if in calf. Tho mound feed, in this proportion, ia admirable for horses, mutes, sheep, or pigs, and tho amount of feed per day would be the usual weight of oats fed to such auimata. With this combined ground ratiod horses will always have ■ slick, soft coat and thia always indicates good digestion. It is true that a small quantity, as here indicated, of flaxiu-ed will enable auimalv to digrat and assimilate more straw than when do sued is given. This combination with flaxseed will be found offoctivo in fattening cattle, pigs, or nlieep. The danger in feeding in the straw is that to > much will be eaten of the flaxseed, causing too great DAIRYING.

At present the Pyne family consists of twenty-three children, seventeen boys anil six girls, and of the Irrothers it may be stated Richard, with his one-eighth of a ton, is the lightest one of the aeventeen.

A crowd of vil­ lagers and neighboring rustics, dressed in their best and wearing favors, -assembled to receive them. As the newly wedded pair emerged from tho station they were cheered by the crowd. At the same time a large shggy-coated black dog,-who had been sit­ ting upright in the carriage, jumped into the’ road with a joyful bark and Ix-gan capering round Gladys, barking and howl­ ing in the wildest manner, a» he tried to express'his joy at seeing her. He had a massive silver collar round his neck, and a large bunch of white ribbons, orange blossoms,. and jasmine fastened in front. “Dear old Ponto; good old doggy, how glad you ore to see me.

And taking his great head in her little white-gloved hand- she kissed hi* big4>!ack nose, he standing with lolling tongue and great hanging jaws, panting with heat and excitement. - "Oh, Ponto, what lovely flowers jon have got in your collar.

When the baronet-handed his bride into the carriage, Ponto jumra-d in also, and lay down st her feet, maxing a soft cushion for thoee two pretty wedding lx>ota. "Now, little woman, how almut yonr dreamsand foreshadowings uud pn-sentimenta of evil," laughed Charlie, ns they were driven away from the station amid tbe cheering of the crowd. A shade passed over her fair face. "I have still the same presentiments; I still believe that Di Luga will seek to be re­ venged, ” she answered, gravely. As they drove through the village street, they wcro greeted with'loud -cheere. A handsome triumphal arch was erected across the street, from the roof of the “Bel­ more Arms" to that of the opposite booM. They passed through the village, through the lodge gates, and along the broad ave­ nue. The household, headed by Mrs. Jay, the housekeeper, were marahale'd iu the. hall to receive them. Mrs. Jay had lived forty years in the family; she was a buxom, mother!v woman, adoring-Lady Ghuiya. as she did her mother, the lata couptess. She was tastefully dressed, in honor of her young lady's marriage, in gray silk nnd black lace, and a cap of cream satin and coffee-colored lace. A footman stood l»v the portico stops, bolding a handsome jet-black j»ony, with satin rosettes nt his ears. . Sir Charles jumped out and handed nut Lady Halconibe, who walked over to Bluebell and fondled him. She kissed him between the eyes; and patted him on the neck and face, call­ ing aim by all tho pet nanf h she could remember, his full dark eyes shining with recognition and pleasure. "Jay, you did nut forget Bluebell and Ponto when you were dispensing your favors, you dear old thing?” "No, Lady Glad—I mean, my lady, I never forget anylnxly or anything yotx love. But really, my lady, I don't know what is the matter with old Ponto all day, he has been bo strange in his ways, and that resi­ le** barking and howling at the least noise; once he ran down tho laurel wulk oa if iu pursuit of some one.” “Oh! fie, doggy. when your mistreM Ponto answers with a yawn, stretching hia tenor-inepiring jaws to their widest ex­ tent. “Oh?

I have filled every nook and corner with flowers, as I did on your dear mother's wedding-day; the best rooms arc gorgeous in satin and velvet, ceilings and panels arc painted in mediaeval designs by Italian ar­ tists,” says Mrs. Jay, with the familiarity of an old servant, Lady Gladys following h<*r from mom to room like a happy child delighted with the alterations and improve­ ments in her old home, and kissing Mr*. Jay in the fullness of her gratitude. The bouse- building, with quaint gothic windows flash­ ing through a thick mantle of ivy. jasmine, and Virginia creepen*. It was onr-«f Lady Gladys' favorite resorts.

As she en­ tered the walk she looked Lick lit the bouse, with the glory of the M-tting snn upon it, with ita manses of roses glowing amid the tangled greenery on ita walls.' Boeing Sir Charles on the lawn, and wishing to nvbii] him for the present, she turned and ran nlaug the laurel walk: when about halfway to the pavilion, Ponto stopped suddenly, ami gave an umnious growl. A low iron railing ran aloug either siilo of the w alk inclosing the laurel grove. Ponto placed his huge flaws ou the top rail, and with ears erect, snarled viciously at something he saw or heard within th« shadow. “Come along, Ponto, uml let tho birds alone.” The dog wagged his huge tail in reply, but he growled again. “Come along, you old stupid; it's only birds or cats," cull's his young mistress. He olxys her command very reluctantly. “Why. you dear old Killy, you will get we a scolding for keeping dinner waiting.” As she spoke she ilrftw her handkerchief through the dog's silvtreolkr and led >.iiu along, though his gre* pathikm-cyFs were full of protest against it. Jnst at tlmt moment. Sir Charted; not seeing his bride on the lawn or among tho flowers, turned and walked toward the house. A footman stood on the steps, and tbe baronet inquired of him: "Have you scan her ladyalfippass?” "Oh, yes, Sir Charles, my Indy nnd Ponto are gone down the laurel walk." an­ swered the man. Sir Charles threw away the end of his cigar, nnd walked toward tbe laurels at a brisk pace. Meanwhile Lady Halcoml»e went on to tho pavilion us quickly as Panto's reluctant movements permitted. "Yon naughty, obstinate, doggy------ ” Just then a cry-»-B human cry of mortal pain—rang out on tbe summer air, and the dog, with a wild Imnnd and a savage growl, wrenched himself from her hold, ami sped back the way they had come, with the deli­ cate lace handkerchief dangling at his collar. • MAPI EK XV. For twe minutes Lady Gladys stood still, almost paralyzed with horror. • It was Charlie's voice," she cried, rous­ ing herself and ntteihpting to follow Ponto. but her steps were unsteady, her face and lips pallid, and a terrible dread, of she knew not what, weighed upon her heart. _ “It wu* Charlie's voice,” she reja-ats, as', feeling faint and giddy, she clung to the railing for sapport. Just then Ponto gave vent to a aucceiwioD of howls and barks, nnd his angry voice was wafted back to her, mingling with another voice that she knew well. “Pedro di Luga. oh. Heaven help me." she cried, chuqdug her face with her Lauds, us she reeled forwanl. that voice still ring-' ing in her care, uttering imprecations in English, French and Spanish, mingling with Ponto'* savage growls, aud the sounds of a florae tussle, as of two txalies wrest­ ling among the trees. At nu abrupt turn in the seini-seqientine walk she stop|M*d suddenly. A prostrate body lies across her path— the body of a man lying face downward, and Lady Gladys looks down with start­ ling eyes on the pnffie form. of her hus­ band. with the blood flowing freely from a wound in his bock or side, and gathering in n pool on the gravel walk beside him. She did not faint, but she dropped on her knee* by the motionless form. She hnd a dim recollection of tearing the bee off her evening dress to staunch the blood; she tried to cry out, but do sound came from her lips. She hnd a vogue remembrance of seeing Ponto jump over the railings, and come to her side writh his great paw* <lnpC'ug with blood, and the flora* at his col r broken uud blood-stained. She felt herself shrink shndderingly, as hr licked her with his hot, blood-stained tongue; she wai aware that he started off in the direc­ tion of the honse, barking violently, leaving her to the merry of her enemj. Overcome by horror, she fell forward across the motionless form. Then she hears the tramp of hurrying feet, and the sound of many voices, and the load barking uf Ponto; then she felt herself lifted by a pair of siout ana*, and she remembered no more. When the young bride returned to con­ sciousness she was lying under thr lace and ■atin draj>crie* of her own luxurious bed. Looking around, she met the sympathetic eyes of Mrs- Grayson, the lyctoF* wife, looking kindly in her own. Lady Gladys looked up in the kindly face with an anx­ ious, terrified glance, frightened to ask the aueation uppermost in her thoughts. Mrs. Grayson bent over, and whispered ten­ derly: “My dear child, don't be alarmed. Sir Charles is progressing favorably; his wound i* not so dangerous as it was at first feared.

Voters In Canada. There are assessment qualifications re jHired for voters by tbe election laws of nearly every part of Canada. In Ontario and Quebec a vote is given to every male subject who is the owner, occupier, or tenant of real property ot the assessed value of $'100, or of the yearly value of $30, within the limits of cities or corporate towns; or, of the assesHed value of $200, or year­ ly value of $20, if not so situated. In New Brunswick, a vote is given to every mole subject of the age of 21 years, assessed in respect of real es­ tate to the amount of $100, or of per­ sonal property, or of personal and real, amounting together to $100. or •40 annual income.

Allxarmcis are acquainted with the fact that if some kinds of sued arc not cbanged the crop will soon run out Thi* fact is true of grains, but applies to a larger extent to garden vege­ tables. For 'yutanre, the onion seed of Conuoctictit is imported from TrippH, and grows well there for one or two crops, but if tho cul­ tivation in long continue*! from tlie origins! seed the omous soon are only the size of acorn*.

One raaxm, and tbo principal one. for tiiese facte* is that every plant has a native region which ia limitel in extent, and that when at­ tempt is made to grow it out uf that range it jamri deteriorates and requires to be renewed from seed grown in its native range. Thi* i* . particularly true of Sea Island cotton, seed of which liaa’ tieen grown in every eotton-growiug soil in tho world, hut which rapidly de­ generates, and can only be grown away from its native region by the constant use ot fresh seed. Tlieec peculiarities of varieties of plants have brought the busine** of growing seed to no large proportions. Another reason why the change of seed i* often Iteneficial to the farmer is that the dis­ ease* which afflict onr ermw and the insect* which prey npr>n them prefer some varieties to othcra, and the discSMM or insects will be­ come more abundant in the localities where the varieties they prefer are most cultivated.

Indeed, I am not sure that thi* exception ought to be m.-.de. for although tho Dukes of Nor­ folk iUH-3) sute-dated the Duke* of Somerset by some sixty-four years, it is well known that Howard is u corrup­ tion of the excessively commonplace Saxon name Hogward while now tliat Seymour is spelled St Maur, there can be no manner of doubt about its Nor­ man bluo-bloodedness. - Of course, it is’true that vulgar tongues corrupted tlie name for something over five oenturiea( but, thank heaven, it has been re। stored now. nnd we can all breathe easier. . The name will continue, however, to be pronounced Seymour, just as St. John is called Sinjuu aad St. Iaeger i* spoken Sillinger.

He immediately after this again entered the army as First Sergeant iu the Ono Hundred anil Ninetvseventh Pennsylvania Regiment, and nubxcqucntly served asLieutenant in the Thirteenth United States Colored Regiment.

There are a multitude of sufferers from the noises of their neighborhood who endure what amounts to agony, ex­ citing their nerves to abnormal action and their pulse to fever heat, when it would do them no injury to use a simple means of obviating the whole tiling. The clangor of machinery, tbe ringing of bells, the cries and laughter, the yells and roars, of a hundred or less children at recess or at ball-playing, the passing of heavy drays—all or any of these ana other things are sometimes fatal to the health of tne invalid and to the work of the thicker. Often it is ntterly impos­ sible to move into a region where no heavy drays pass, no bell-ringing is al­ lowed; and then there is hardly a re­ gion to be found not invaded by tbe whistle of the steam engine, or where boys do not shout at their games; and even where there are no cocks to crow, or dog* to bark, or lards to sing at un*eemly hours before dawn, there is al­ ways some other sound to torture tbe sensitive ear. If now, the sufferer will take a bit of spermaceti ointment of about the size of a pea, tie it up in a small square of fine linen, and place it deep in the ear, working it round till it takes the shape of the orifice, leav­ ing the end to hang out, not a murmur of sound can be heard; the atmos­ phere is sweet and serene, the nerves subdued, and when the noise is over. had, the litle ping can be removed, tbe murmur of the world allowed to return, and no harm done.—Harper’s Batar. ■Instr Werk.

He seemed to be a genuine porcupine in human form, built something like that wild man that Bara urn exhibits, and which, be says, was captured on the Nile. In one hand he held a dangerous looking spear, resembling a scarlet warrior. He thanked me for a pipe and tobacco and then crossed his legs and leaned back in a very independent way and told me his tale. He said he was not only a minister of the gospel but a singing school master, and had been over in “Porkey Hollow” teaching a few young porcupines, who had au ambition to sing in his choir, and when returning home bad lost bis way in the darkness and fortunately rt ibH »pp«UU; flint, rn*wipf fwliar at pit of tho itom- That is where you will find O.

Procuring a teamster, he bought a few articles for pioneer 'hoasekeeping. and was driven away across the connin', far to the west, where lies the broad, wooded belt. These facta, briefly told, were the thoughts of tho exile family as they sat in the tone cabin the night I have mentioned. . Tho hands upon the little brass clock over the fireplace moved on and on until they in­ dicated the hour'of midnight. Still-the couple did not retire. Little Edie lay upon her rude cot all unmindful of danger, but father and mother were iu no mood for sleep. The silence had Leefl long at the fireside when it was siiddrnly^SroIteo. . / t Both man nnd wife started'to-theiKfeet nt the same instant, aud stood, gazing into each other's faces with apprehensive stare. A hi-nvy footfall had- been heard from without. The tread came nearer and near­ er, and finally ceased at tho dqorstone. A loud, quick rap ou the thick planks, fol­ lowed. “Who con it'be?" the wife whispered. “Heaven only knows! It may be lhe Spaniard; an Indian would not come in that Elmer Hazen's Enemy. DY C.'XEOK MEDKDrrn. Well back in tbe forest of Minnesota, twenty-iour years ago, there stood a lone cabin'oecupied by three individuals. Why thesetiu»e chose to dwell in such complete eccltuium no one could tell.. Not infrequently’did hunters call at the isolated habitation, and on certain occa­ sions' hod partaken of food at the wood­ man's table. . Tho cabin had stood there and been oc­ cupied for more than two yearn, and a knoll of several acres, destitute of timber, furnished at once garden and tydd, where vegetables and grain grew luxuriantly. Elmer Hazen was the name of tho cabin's owner, and his family companions were hto •wife and a little girl of five years. At the time we visit thia secluded snot, the Sioux Indians were mating their bloody raids upon the settlers of that region •of Minnesota, Consternation and rain had been spread broadcast wherever tho banded warriors had •een fit to go with firebrand'and rifle. . The news of the tembic slaughter of tho whites hod reached the cabin of the re-cIurc. and no little concetti was felt by the family, for tho red men knew very well of •the hidden home in the forest wilds. Ono evening, as darkness settled over the lonely abode, Elmer Hazen and his wife showed in their features uncommon con­ cern. Fresh news hod come to them of the’sav«ges* devastating WMtc. Both felt a heavy •weight about tho heart, and their ears wore ■constantly on tbo alert for any uncommon sound. * The windows and single door of the cabin were securely farti-ned as soon as it had become entirely dark, and the couple sat down *nt tho hearthstone, where smoldered a neglected fire, and mused for a time in silence. There was bnt a single apartment in tbe cabin, and but few articles of furniture. A curly maple-stocked rifle hung upon Dins driven into the logs, and nicely drewied -furs hanging about the room told thnt the man who had dared inhabit that region alone was no inferior hunter. The wifo at length broke the silence: . “To-night, Elmer. I almost regret our leaving a civilized home to come into this life of deprivation and danger.” “Deprivations are not pleasant, to be -sure," tho woodman returned, “but ns to -danger, we are safer here than there." “Yes. The live*.of ourselves or little Edie are no more sacred to that Spaniard, Morales, than to the Sioux. The hunting down of the red men to only for a seAon, and thev will become friends, but the Spaniard’s search will be perpetual and murderous. “Would not tho arm of the law be aome■ thing of a shield there? It certainly cannot be exercised here.” “The law to of no value to a dead man, Eliza; Morales sought my life and drove me hither. He made a vow, and one ho in­ tended to keep. His bond to keep the peace wm no protection to me or hindrance to him. Ho to a desperate man, more venomous than the serpent, more subtle than the adder, and more artful than the “IK the reign of terror in Minnesota is terrible, Elmer.** the wife said, a shadow of pain crossing her features, as she drew little Edie closer to her heart. ■ “I can fight a Sioux in ambush or hand to hand, but I cannot contend against a villain who stabs in the dark or administers poison. I feel safer here than in the old home.” The good wife felt really ns did her bus­ band, so she dropj>«d the argument, and both again watchtu the glow of the dying embers in silence. Three years before Elmer Hazen had been a resident of New Orleans and in One evening he found an old man in the •dutches of a villain, and he boldly intertfer«-d and warned tIm old man of his danger. The name of the blackleg wm Moral is, and he became enraged, and muttered ouraes from between his gritting teeth. Hazen paid no other attention to this nt the time. The aged gentleman, who bad taken the ■name and number of bis protector, called upon Elmer Hazen the next day to express his thanks more fully than he bad done tinder the excitement of the evening before. At this interview some facts were revealed 'that put more importance upon the matter 'than Mr. Hazen had at first thought of. On the day that the sharper wm found with the veteran, the latter had arrived by boat from San Francisco, where he had been fortune, which he carried in currency upon fctomerson. Morales had met him npwn the Ixmt, and, in a friendly and most affable manner, vol­ unteered to aid the new-comer, os he was employed by the city, be said, to protect travelers of wealth who did not know the wicked ways of the place. “It to not safe for you to carry so much money upon your person,” Mr. Hazen bad •aid. after hearing the veteran's story. “That scoundrel to well known, and. by •some device, will get possession of it. He bare The certificate wan shown, made payable to the order of Aiuton Gale. Mr. Hazen wax gratified at thia, as tho money wm beyond tbe reach of Morales.

The recluse did not propose to allow any advantage on the pan of the visitor, so seizing an ax he placed the blade between the planks of the floor, and lifted one of the solid puncheons at tbe threshold end, and placed a Rtool beneath it, thus forming a brnce so that the door could be o|M-ned cnly far enongh to admit tbe body of a sin­ gle person si one time. The Lar was then removed, and the wood­ en latch lifted. “Come in!” rang out iu a clear tone. The door opened, and the face of a white man appeared. It waa an honest face, and the first glance at lhe kind blue eyes convinced the settlers thnt they had no cause for fear. “Shut tho door; there are none to follow," the new-comer said, in an assuring way; “but I havo no time to spare. My name is Alfred Waters, and I nm connected with the Indian agency. To-day intelligence came to me that a party of five Sioux were com­ ing down lhe river so as to reach your cabin ulxnit the hour of- dawn, for the purpose of murder and plunder. There being no one to send, I came myself." “Thanks, friend Waters," Hazen said, extending his hand; “but I don’t see how I can better fortify my cabin. I arranged for what might come as soon ax I heard of the outbreak. What would you advise in the case?" “That yon make preparations to leave the cabin as soon as cohveriient; at leant, Ix-furu the hour of daylight." “Bnt we will'lie trailed if we leave, and doubtless overtaken nt a spot where we can­ not defend ourselves as here." “Yon have not heard all of my plans yet.

I will go for (hern and return at once." “But it is a good five miles to that place." “Yea; ten miles there and back, even? rod of it; but it con be traversed in four hours." “Four hours from now will be the time of “I will try aud be here then."

The mon and wife gave their approval, and taking the horn Alfred Waters hasten­ ed out into the darkness, and away. “Our forebodings were not groundless, it Appears," the cabin owner said to hto wife as he moved about to prepare for leaving the habitation.

There ore 5,000 in Atlanta ii there is one. They are little, bnt they are mighty important. Did you- ever notire how they disappear in rainy weather? The babies < ome and go with tho nun­ shine. Let a balmy day happen along and the green lawns aro dotted over with babies. Their stubby legs trudge the streets, or they ride, and their wise, thoughtful faces look out from under very red hoods, and seem to re­ buke the world for being so bad. Did you ever see a woman pass a baby without giving it a second glam e? Did yon ever see an inexperienced man try "to make peace with an inoffensive anil unoffending l.aby? Did you ever see a baby that didn’t know a gentleman when "he saw one? Did you ever hear any eloquence like a baby’s wonderful voice? And how clear and silvery is tbe voice of a little girl! Her laugliter is like a rippling shower of mus'c from the =kies. There is no doubt about it, the babies are the salt of the earth. A man is not full grown until he owns one. A being who can lean over the side of his sleep­ ing baby and not be as brave as a lion is not good for much this side of the cemetery, nor the other side, either, for that matter. Did you ever notice the little peaked* fa %1 babies that look out of tbe dark, damp rooms that fall to the lot of the poor? They breathe the very dust that rattling drays throw against their low windows. There is a little child on a back street in the business part of At­ lanta who may lie taken as a specimen ot that class of babies who, are without sunshine. There is no yard to the house, no corner where even “frog bouses” can be made. No mud pies ever bake on fireleu ranges, and no red-painted toys ever tell the jiasaer-by thnt a little child lives there. But a small, pale face, ever ao meek, pre me* against the dusty pane, and sad little eyea look out on the ever-moving stream of drays and people. It is a compan­ ionless child. It romps with no chil­ dren; it rides no fiery, untamed tri­ cycle. A well-fed dog dashing by is a diversion, and a hook-and-ladder truck en route to a fire amounts to a circus. A rosy-faced baby, with a happy home, sleeps in the lolde of ita cradle! Hardly a day, and the little cheeks are as white as' the pillow upon which it rente. Did you ever notice how light a baby looks when it ia dead? There is hardly enough of the little form to turn zephyr. A weeping mother said one It is so hard to leave my baby away off in the cemetery. It is ao hard to abut the door and know my baby ia on the outside.*—Atlanta Constitution.

Nothing else would-bare matured much, but he waa blind—hopelessly blind. He wm an artist, and had caught cold while out sketching. Inflammation had set in—gone to his eyes; snd.it was m if a deed wall had been built right across his , path of life. Ten years later it might have mattered less, for the children would have l>een “out of hand;" but now, with skt of them—the eldest but nineteen and only a girl; the youngest seven—and no provision, it waaa block look-out. indeed. For Charles Llovd was not a genin*. He had not even audacity, which docs almost as well. He painted very nice pictures, true to nature, but who on earth is aatisfied with nature? fDne might as well offer peo­ ple uncooked meat, Christmas came, and the ready money ■was gone. There were some pictures in the wtudio, but not any finished; however, fin­ ished or not, they must go. They packed them up, and sent them to Mr. Lloyd's pictnrc dealer, with a note to say. they -would be willing to take n low price, m the •pictures were unfinished, nnd they wore the last they would ever be able to send—a 4ouch of tragedy Janet thought they would feel. She added she would be happv to •send some of her own drawings for their approval; and awaited their orders with the culm confidence of one who has not the faintest-idea of the straggle for axifitence. Incredible! impossible! It couldn't be true! “Messrs. Pink 4 Son aro returning the "Woodland Scene’ and the ’Morning Walk,’ by Mr. Charles Lloyd, m they are sorry to Bay the pictures ore unsalable in their present condition. They also beg to inform Miss Lloyd that they aro unable at present to send her an order, as trade is very bad. and they have a large stock on hand. ” Janet sat stupefied, with the letter in her hand. “Mother,, tho pictures aro coming back! ’ Pinks won't have them. What in the world are we to do?" “Won’t have them! Whatever do they mean?" "I don’t know; ohk I don't know—it's •dreadful—it’s dreadful to think of!" and the started up distracted. _ Jack was kneeling on a chair, his elbows well on the tabla, and a newspaper before him. “Don't ran away, Jenny; stop a min­ ute. There’s something here. Listen. ‘To Artists—Wanted: Pictures for expor­ tation. Price must be moderate. Apply, Moses i Co., Borough.' " “Oh, Jack, let me see—bow providential! What a magnificant opening! Why, they’ll want doxens. Let's write at onoe; or per­ haps we had better go, and then we can see them and get to know all about it, and bny the canvases and things.” The reaction wm tremendous. Janet felt abundantly “Sut, my dear, it’s hardly the thing." “Oh! with Jack it will be all right, mother; besides, we shall really not have to mind ‘the thing’ any more." So Janet and Jack went, nnd they found “the Borough;" then they turned out of that, -and up a court found “Moses i Co." Talk about the improvement of taste! ■Whoever will buy all the tea trays, wax do were, gorgeous thne-pfeces which those • warehouses contain is a puzzle. They were ushered into a little back of­ fice to interview the buyer. “Pictures?" said he shortly. “Yes; well. I'll just look at th’em. I can tell ata glance whether they will do for us.” He seemed very rude and abrupt; but if they had only known how tired the poor man was of y-.' -ture- | “There," said Janet, picking out two of flu r father’s, and putting them up with some pride—they were eo infinitely better than those in the room. ' They all looked nt them a minute—the man doubtless lost in admiration. At last the girl looked round smiling, but there was co admiration to be seen; the num merely •crewed up his lips and shook his head. Presently he took up one of her own •ketches—the worst n long way. “This might do; only it would want u deal more ■work in it’ "Certainly," she said anxiously. “I could put any amount of work into it I don't mind work." “Don’t you? Then I dore say we shall some to terms. Yct>tnust throw a bridge “But there wasn’t one." “That doesn't matter; and ground. Our customers like a bit of life; and the canvas wants covering. There’s too much sky: they like it well tilled up—plenty for the money. You might put a range of great improvement, would a mountain or two. What's your price?" “I thought three guineas,’’ the said, not lik:ng to auk too much. The man shook his head. “Forty-eight •shillings is our prioe, and wa never give a penny more to anybody. The sister and brother looked anxiously at each other, but forty-eight shillings was better than nothing; it was rather a queer man sharply. “Of course. •You had nw wouldn’t do.

V orthy of Millais, I declare !h Mark Barrett went red, not with gratifi­ cation—it was n portrait of a provincial mayor, and be had not put his best work into it, os be ought to have done. Moro people came ir; among others, some friends of the mayor. “How do you do, Mr. Barrett? Very happy to meet you again, air. Saw you last in our council chamber. You.rrmeml»er ma; Mr. Aider­ man Whitley, sir. Now let’s have a look at our worthy mayor. Very good, very good; just like him, isn’t it, mv dear?" turning to hia wife. “Eh?" “Well, it’s like him in the face,"said the little woman, doubtfully; “but I think my­ self that the waistcoat buttons are a trifle too small. ** “So they are, so they are. Trust a woman for telling von your faults, Mr. Barrett, eh?" A city man come up to him. “I could have picked up one of your pictures for an old song the other day, Mr. Barrett," in a loud, cheerful voice, us if it\was a good joke that all' the room would IjkG'-R).hear— and perhaps they. did. \ \ "Indeed! what was it?" I “River . scene; bridge, mountains, old woman in scarlet cloak. I should linve bought it,-being yours, only the frame was such a gimcrack nffa'r." “You are mistaken. I never did such a thing in my life." “It had your name on it, I’m perfectly certain." ” . , “What were they asking for it?" “Five-and-twcn’ty shillings." “You must bo mistaken," in deep dis­ gust. • “Very well; if you don't believe mo you can look for yom self. I have the address in my pocket" Murk was so much annoyed that the very next day he made a pilgrimage lo the city. He determint >1 to get to the bottom of the mystery. Most likely it was a name that was something like his; but it might l>c a forgery, in which case he would nave the fellow puuishrtl. He found' the pictnrudealer’s—at least, it wasn’t a pivture-dealdealer’s, it wm a drafter;’*—and there, sure enough, among oleographs and rubbish of all aorts. were three pictures, Tearful things, signed “Mark Barrett." However, the shopman directed him to Moses .t Co., Borough. He hurried on there; it was dinner-time,* between twelve and one; only a boy • in charge. That was. fortunate: he got the address without any trouble; Miss Janet Lloyd, Ivy Cottage. Hoxton, Surrey. “A woman, after all. ’ What pests those women arc!" CHAPTER HL “Now, Jack, I’ll put.in the bridges while you follow with the old woman. We must hurry along. If we don’t get these off to­ night we shall bo in a fix for- money to­ morrow." “Well, never rnipd, Jinney; don't let's wqrry more than we can help. Do you think this old woman will do?" “Ye—es; put plenty of color on nnd smooth it down well. ’ Whatever would the public do without ’ Mark Barrett’s' works of art? 1 do hate calling myself * Mark Barrett,'" signing the name iu a comer as the door opened. She didut turn round—sK* was too busy —until their little Servant said, “Mr. Mark Barrett, please, miss.” Poor, white, over-strung Jane dropped her palette “butter-side” down on the onlv decent carpet in the house as she turned, horror-struck, to face n gentleman—a Mark Barrett in the flesh. Curly-haired and blur-eyed certainly, but ferocious. She simply could not speak for a moment. Even Jack was speechless; he turned very red and tried to stuud in front of the pictures with the name ou. but m there was a whole row uf them all alike, the feat wm beyond his powers. Murk had come straight down from Lon­ don in a furious rage. Every "pot-boiler” he had seen of poor Janet’s only made him more angry. He marched into the house m soon as tho dopr was opened; it was auito possible such a person m that might lock him out; however, the little servant was evidently not np to it, and most fortunately showed him into the very room where the forgeries were going on. ' There wm the fictititions “Mark Barrett" herself—canght red-handed, literally red­ handed; she hud l>een signing the name in vermilion, and tho palette iu foiling had smeared her bauds. Mark was rather taken aback m bo looked at the pale, trembling culprit, with her groat honor-struck dark eyee. He looked at the row of wretched daubs, twelve of them all alike, and nt Jack’s red face, short trouser*, and shrunken jacket, and his agoniz>-d at­ tempts to hide the twelve staring “Mark Barrets." But it wouldn't do to gire way to senti­ ment and have his judgment warped by a pretty face, like a British juryman in a breach of promise case. The very thought made him stern. “I will not apologize for my intrusion," he said; “for I have no doubt you have some idea of the cause of mv visit.” Janet, who would have broken dowu at a kind word, resented this unjust harahneas. “Perhaps you will be good enough to ex­ plain. " I am not aware that I have done anything »o very wrong." Jack felt very angry. He wm longing to defend his sister, but couldn’t think of a telling speech. “Oh! to be a man—a cool, self-possessed man.” “Not done anything wrong, do you say, madam? Art you, then, so ignorant of right and wrong m not lo know that you have committed tho grossest forgery? Don’t you know that it is actionable?" ' The sister and brother looked at each y you are going to i, because it wasn't “Indeed?" JH® really was surprised, arid UOt much flattered. , ■ “No, really, isn’t it surprising? said Jack rudely—his clumsy way of defending hi* sister. Mark colored np. bqt he waa obliged to aocflpt the extinguisher. He couldn’t ex­ plain what a great matt he was, from an art­ ist's point of view. "Well,” said he, willing to be magnani­ mous. “since the offense has been com­ mitted in ignorance, I win not prosecute thia .time, ou condition that you immediately obliterate all these”—pointing to the twelve names—“and call in r>M the—er—pictures you can ;>o«sibly get hold of and re-sign them." Jack whistled. Think of Moses!" he "I don’t suppose th? people who bny them will like that," said Janet. •‘They're got a trade for 'Murk Barretts’, they say. I don’t know what to do. Whatever shall, There was a despairing ring al>out tne voice that struck Mark. She turned to him again. “If you would just lot us scud off thia dozen it would give ns time." “Not another picture! You have done me incalculable injury already." •I’m very sorry. Will you wait just n minute? I should like to consult my father. He wm n painter himself, but Inst winter he became blind. That's the reason we have had to do all this," she said simply. “Is it so?" sharply. , This little key gave n clue to the whole'situation, but he could hardly beliore it yet, it was so different from his idea. He’ rose nnd opened the door for her, aud wm left alone with Jock. Then there was an awkward pause. Jack, with his hands in his pockets, looked ont (tf the window. He had no intention of ,h<-jug civil to this “brute." Mark looked al the pictures. “Does your sister do many of these things?" “A dozen or two a week." “You don't say so. Why, she must work night and day." "She docs, pretty nearly." ' “Yon shouldn't let her work so hard. She’ll kill hereof.” * “Can’t be.helped. We’ve nothing else to live on." nnd he whistled to keep down tenra unbecoming in n man. More nnd more shocked nnd distressed. Mark ventured to hope they got a good' price. . “Four shillings each, and find our own stuff." A howl in the passage. “It's only the children." explained Jack. “Arc there some children?" “Six of us, and father and mother. I say, I think you might have left'Mark Bar­ rett' alone. Perimps you would if you knew everything." “fam ven* sorry—very sorry, indeed! I didn't know nil this, yon see. Of course. I cannot possibly let your sister go on using my name; but if yo’u will tell me nil, j»erhnns I can help you a little." But Janet came back into the room very grave and sad. Mark's heart smote him painfully. He vowed he wouldn't lose sight of this poor family. Janet apologised humbly for tne mistake she had made, said how wrrv her father wns to hear of it, and he would like to see Mr. Barrett for a few minutes. A few weeks later, when the Academy was getting stale, the town hot and weari­ some, Mark Barrett felt it was really his duty to get a little country sketching before the spring tints quite faded nwa\. A day or two later, nnd he found himself looking out of n farm-house window not far from Ivy Cottage, and wondering if ho might venture to call. The country is rather dull without any one to sneak to—“n heathy grave,” Sidney Smith called it. So riot mnny days—in fact, only a few hours— elapsed before bo wm chatting comfortably with Mr. Lloyd, talking art. nny, “shop," soul-refreshing to tho ex-artist, nithough so tedious to the “Philistine." Mr. Lloyd was so delighted to meet with n brother of the brush again that he b/enrne quite confidential, told him about his own unfinished work, and what a pity it wns. “You know Janet can psrint in a fashion, but she can't do good enough work for that; besides, I nm nfraid these wretched things she soems^i6 be doing­ now won't have improved her style. You’ve seen them, of course? Tell me, ns on artist, are they really so very ba<V" “Those I saw were certainly rather— rather—crude, but perhn]* she has some­ thing better in hand.now. I should like to see whnt she it doing, if vou think I might venture. Perhaps I could give her a few hints, you know." “Thank you very much. I am sure we ore greatly Indebted to you for your forbear­ ance altogether; but come into the next room and tell me what you think of their work." Mark wm surprised to find his heart beat strangely nt this mild remark. “It must be a touch of indigestion," he impa­ tiently assured himself; but he couldn't help feeling it wns n moment that would stand out in his life when be held Janet’s nervous hand in his for a second, and she glanced np at him with proud shame. For ranged along the wall were twelve more pictures, exactly like the others— twelve ranges of mountains, twelve bridges, now in course of construction, and twelve old women awaiting their scarlet cloaks. “Still busy, I see, Miss Lloyd." “She’s always busy," said her father, with a sigh. “I do wish she eould get out a litllo morer-not only for the sake of the fresh air. but I am sore if she does not get more sketching from nature her work will deteriorate." “Mr. Barrett will tell you that that is im­ possible, father,” said Janet, half iu fun, half in sarcasm. Mark colored a little. He could not deny that it was inqjossible for anything in the painting line to be much worse; but ho enught a faint little sigh from Janet, and Jack looked out of the window with long­ ing eves. “It’s a jolly afternoon," be said. “I any. Jenny, don't you think we might drop it for onoe? There'll be such a breeze on Ripley HeruL" Janet gave him a look. “Well see when we hnve done our work, Jack." Sighing not a little, but prodigiously, Jack took up.the brush again. “That means •neverf ” be Baid. “Those beasts will take honrw.” Mark hesitated a minute before he de­ scended to tho bottom of the professional ladder. .“If you will allow me to help you," ho said presently, “I think we might finish in time for a walk before duak. I am very anxious to see Ripley Head myself, and your father wm kind enough to say you would show me the way." looking st 'Jack, “If Mira Lloyd would allow me the pleas­ ure of accompanying you," looking at aad they worked away chmrily—Mr. Lloyd looking in now and then, enjoying the fresh life in the house. When tile sun was beginning visibly to sink, and tin* last old woman was fitted with for their walk. • Janet, from some nndefinablc instinct, put on her most becoming, though by no means her newest, hat, and plucked some scarlet geraniums for her neck, which burned bright against her black dress and pate face. But not so pale. As they stood oh Rip­ ley Head, watching the sun quickly sinking on the horizon, hmg out of sight from the valleys, the reflection of the rod and golden clouds wrap|>ed the girl in a halo of glory. “What n .wonderfully beautiful creature!" thought the artist, entranced with the “effect." She was by no means beautiful, but he thought her so, which wm enough. It was sunrise for Janet, not sunset Jack hod many a time helped Lis sister do»n the steep side of Ripley Head. He was going to do so now, of course (oven tha bigoert of ■ brothers are not very “sharp" where their listers are concerned); but Mr. Barrett happened to be nearer, and offered his hand, and, though Jack wm a dear boy, there was, strange to say, something firmer.. and warmer, and closer in this grasp. Tho mother, dulled perhaps by her troubles, was vexed with her daughter about this time. She wm so uureMonablc. She actually cried—not optaly, but quietly and unseen, as sho hoj>ed-^because she*could not have a new gown, and Janet was fool­ ish enough to spend a shilling on ribbons, which might have been much more profita­ bly spent ou stockings. But Janet’s instinct wm right. Though nothing on earth will sunder souls that are fast Mid firmly knit, the merest trifle will turn aside the first inclination. Besides, to attract is a natural, hoidthy instinct, and to l»e attracted—why, no one would if they ’ didn’t like it. One «lay it dawned even upon Jack's brotherly understanding that Janet was dif­ ferent somehow, and it wasn't only the geranhini in her dree* and ribbon u’t her waist. They were painting m uaual. and, as was now not unusual, Mr. Barrett wm helping them, when the bungling, well-meaning brother struck in: "You’ve been on awfully good friend to us, Mr. Barrett, especially to Janet and me ^-getting us orders nnd ail that; but there's one thing you've done that I don’t believe anybody’s noticed but me. nnd that is, you're made a groat alteration in Jenny." ’ “Nonsense, Jack, nothing of the kind!" she burst in, horrified as to what he would say next, her face almost as red at tho geraniums. Mark, standing by her, looked down on her. bit his lip. and began* lo wish Jack would go out of the room. “I know what I’m talking about.".Said Jock, with the calm confidence of ignorance, and blundering like a big bluebottle fly; “she's as happy and cheerful m anything now. nnd I know it’s you, l»ecanse she’s 5m> disapjxiinted whan you don’t come." “Jack, be quiet—it’s all nonsense. Don't be silly!" “Shu wm very down at firs* about -the name, you know, and Moses was very mad with her because she wouldn’t sign ‘Murk Barrett ’ any more." “Of course not! I shouldn't think of such a thing.” she burst in passionntclv, “after all you said,” turning to Mark. “ You may be sure I shall never make Me of your name again.” “Won’t you?" ho returned. “Do you know, I was rather beginning to hope you would." In great surprise Janet looked at him. but something in his eyes made her drop tiers. “With a little addition," he said, tn a low tone. • “Oh, my!” struck up Jack, enlightened at last. "1 never thought of that. Here. I'll go and get some dinner—tea. I mean. You can come when you’re ready." The Son-In-Law. The.typical American mother-in-law is the ideal mother-in-law. She is af­ fectionate, kind, and reasonably indul­ gent to her son-in-law, and she is de­ voted to his children, helping to rear and train them in tho way they should go, and in sickness being st once, very often, physician, nurse, and ministering angel. There ore few deserving sonsin-law in this country who have not an angelic mother-in-law, and to the credit of rqost Americans, be it said, that the mother-in-law is generally the recipient of a filial affection second only to that rendered to one’s own mother. Every man, almost, looks upon hK mother as being worthv of the highest seat in heaven, nnd blessed indeed is he (and there are many such men) who can in his heart feel that his mother-in law is entitled to a seat by her side. “Worthy and dutiful sons-in-law make loving and sweet-tempered motbera-mlaw.’’ This rule holds good in nine cases out of ten, and certainly that makes it a pretty good one. It would be well for every young man, who is about to take upon himself the impor­ tant and happy relation of son-in-law, to write the above rule on the tablet of hia memory, and redouble tke joys and lighten the sorrows of life by so con­ ducting himself ns to be, at once and for all time, deserving of the love and confidence of the mother of the wife of his boaom.—Savannah News.

Not a dollar of public money can be paid out until the expenditure has been authorised by law. There are soma appropriations which are perma­ nent, such as the sum, whatever it may he, needed to pay the interest on the national debt. All other appropria­ tions must be made annually, and for the most part they can neither be drawn upon before the fiscal year begins, nor expended after the year lias closed. For example: Congress neglected to make sufficient provision for the pay of the clerks in the New York Custom House, and there was no money appro­ priated for their salaries for the month of June last New York bankers ad­ vanced the money on the chance of Congress appropriating money to sup­ ply thia deficiency, and the clerks got their pay. The new fiscal year began with July, and the clerks receive their salaries regularly for thia year. One hundred years ago, in 1785, the United States Government hud no power to lay any taxes at all, and could only obtain money by calling upon the States for it How much did it need ? The requisition for 1785 included, be? sides the amount necessary to pay in­ terest on the debt, a sum of but little more than four hundred thousand dol­ lars for all the ordinary purposes of Government. The national expendi­ tures at present, excluding paymentsof principal and interest of the debt, averaged more than two hundred mill­ ion dollars. Then a sum of twelve and a half cents represented the annual cost of the General Government to each Garson; now the corresponding sum is ttlo less than four dollars. Was that early govornlnent exces­ sively niggardly, or is the system of to­ day enormously extravagant that this difference exists? Neither statement is true. The government'of Congress under the articles of confederation was so weak that it was hardly worthy of the name of a government. Small os was the sum asked-of the States, Con­ gress could not get even that No doubt some appropriations aro now excessive, and a certain amount of money is wasted; but the extravagance is by no means aa great as it is popu­ larly supposed to be. It is for the most part a fiction invented for party pur­ poses. We get much more for* onr money than our great-grandfathers did. To illustrate this fact: The postollieo department stands in the appropriation table for nearly fifty million dollars. How is this paid? Mostly by postage on letters and papers. '1 ho man woo sent by mail two letters a month in 1785 paid as much toward the support of government as the present average cost of our National Government; that is to say, he could not have sent his twenty-four letters for less than $4. The same service now co its 48 cents. Again, the money expended by gov­ ernment not only nominally but really protects our property on land and sea, at home and abroad. In the days of national poverty and weakness our sail­ ors were liable to be impressed for ser­ vice on foreign ships. Our ships en­ gaged in peaceable commerce might be seized and condemned for fancied vio­ lations of regulations decreed by other governments. Conflicting laws of btates liarassed merchants in do­ mestic trade, and prevented them from collecting debts due them. Great Britain held many forts and posts in our territory, and the red Indian was a constant enemy. So, although govern­ ment reems to cost a great deal, we get our money’s worth. Were the country to be allowed a chance to choose be­ tween paying 12$ cents per head for such government as that of 1785, and paying $4 for that which exists to-day, it would instantly prefer tho latter. There would be no more hesitation than there would lie if one were asked to mak ' choice between going to Cali­ fornia in an emigrant wagon drawn by oxen, and passage by railtoad express train-—1'out/i’x Companion.

Coogresa is treating Dakota like a ripe watermelon, and is thumping ber before dividing her. The ambitions of corporation* and capital must ba bounded, and tbe de­ mands of labor must be considered or both will sutler. Mr. Oarland will be glad to know that tt>e social season ia ended. He hopes to have a coat of whitewash be­ fore the next one. King Alcohol got his deadliest blow, John Swinton says, when the Knights of Labor decided to exclude saloon­ keepers from their organization. The workingman who will take ad▼antrg»of so groat a,nd good a personage as Jay Gould may be a very dan­ gerous citizen, but wbat ia Gould doing al! thia time? The Kalamuoo Telegraph has a bright new dress, which, improves the typographical appearance of tee ' paper very much. It would be bard work to improve it otherwise. If the state and the nation can My that transportation shall be conducted under certain rules and regulations, why may they not prescribe tribunals for,tiie adjustment of differences of opinion between capital and labor re­ lative to wages. As long as their husbands are in tbe penitentiary no one will object very seriously to tbe meetings of tee poly­ gamous wives of Utah to denounce the Federal Government. When their husbands are out they have enough to do to keep track of them without both­ ering themselves much about politics. Mr. Trenholm, who is one of the lights of southern politics, is a fierce free trader, but be thinks that the tar­ iff on rice ought to J»e kept up because that is one of tee important staples of Sodth Carolina. It is hardly necessary to remark that Mr. Trenholm is from South Carolina, and that the Trenholm family havj got some rice plantations. These strikes on great railway sys­ tems, comprehending thousands of milea of track, brought on frequently by stock-jobbers for selfish ends, and always resulting in great hardships and loss to the people, are as legitimate a subject for governmental considera­ tion as are pools and cembinatiuns, ex­ tortions and favoritism. In Bsllard county, Kentucky, the people were divided into two bitter factions. They could not agree on anything, but in local politics they were murderously hostile. To settle the difficulty if possible the legislature has now divided the county, calling one portion by it* old name nnd the other one Carlisle. The same policy if pursued in some other portions of the state would make a county out of every quarter section. TRAIN TALK. “Yea. I’ve been down to Washing­ ton,” said mr elderly, passenger, with a slouch hat, and an old-fashioned turn­ down collar; “went down to see my darter. Like Washington?

After a spell 1 thought I would go down myself and see bow thing* was getting along, and so I started. The second night after my arrival there was a party at the Senator’s, an’ I was there. They put a biled shirt on me an* made me wear a white neck-tie, but I dniwed the line on one of the Senators swaller-teil coats they wanted me to wear. I told them 1 was a good old Jeffersonian Democrat, a Bourbon from way back, a plain man who paid his debts and al­ ius went for everything in sight, but I wasn't goin’ to make myself look like a fool in one o’ them things—not if Grover himself was expected to lie at the party, and if they didn’t like my style I’d go down to tee tavern and May till the shindig was oyer. They laughed at me an’ coaxed me to stay, an’ I stayed. “When they showed me into tee room where tee company was I nearly went dizzy. There were men westing boot-jack coats and collars high enough to answer for pokes on unruly, cults. But teat wasn't all. Tbe woweu were dreswd in things I qever seen before.

GEH. HANCOCK AND THE MILITIAMEH. An array officer told an anecdote of Gen. Hancock about his love of dignity and discipline. He was in command of rtrajn which brought Geu.

In the rear car was a party of Pennsylvania militia officers, who were poping an occasional bottle of champagne and smoking quite so­ ciably. Gen. Hancock saw from his car what waa going ou in the rear. It did not comport with bis ideas of pro­ prieties of so solemn an occasion, and, calling the conductor, he said: “Will you please present my compli­ ments to those gentlemen, with the re­ quest that they ceaseatuoking?” In a few momenta tbe conductor re­ turned with tee announcement that tee convivial officers returned their compliments with a peremptory decli­ nation to relinquish their cigars. “Where is the next switch?” asked Hancock. “About five miles below,” replied the conductor. “When you reach it, if tiie smoking in that car has not ceased, switch it on tbe side track and leave it. You may tell tbe gentlemen what I have said.” In two minutes there was not a cigar to be seen in die appending coach. Its occupants knew that Hancock meant just what he Mid. Aman living in tbe Missouri River country, Dakota, visited a "no license” town where tbe law is rigidly enforced. On his return a friend said tu him: “S'po*e you bad a pretty dry time down there?” “No, I enjoyed the day fust-rate.” “Don’t see where you could have any fun iu a temp’rance town.” “Well, I never had a better time in my life. I mw an ox Igani run away, held a man’s coat daring a fight-, and was asked my private advice on four boss trades. Would you want any mnre’n that?” A California blacksmith is danger­ ously ill with glanders, contracted while shoeing a home. And a Pennsyl­ vania woman is suffering from a sprain­ ed ankle, contracted while “shooing” a hen. There seems to be a fatality about this shoeing business. MICHIGAN NETS.

None of tho so-called Jesse James gongs ever • ent to work more coolly and deliberately to plunder, snd, if necessary, to kill, than did the robbers who murdered Kellogg Nichols, messenger of tha United States jewelry, supposed to be worth jit, J*a*t *5,000. Kellogg Nichols, an old employe of the United Slates Express Company, wax in charge of the express car of tha night tram from Chicago for Davenport and the West, and N. H. Watts, a man about 25 years old, was baggage master for the trip. When th* train arrived at Iforrix the con­ ductor of the train. F. L.. Wagner, juiupetl onto the depot platform, and at the same munivul, WutfK. the baggageman, jumped off,-his face deathly pale, mid with tremor in every motion. When asked what wns the matter he could not for a moment explain, ho great was his terror and excitcmcnt. The agent at Morris, on going to the express car, was suh>ri*ed to find the door of the car locked. Here­ tofore he hiul always found Nichols stand­ ing at Ihe door ready to receive er deliker packages. After waiting a few minutes be knocked nt the door, and, getting no re*ponse. opened it with hi* key nnd iuinpcd in the car. After culling out for Nichols and looking around the car* he wax struck with horror to see the express mt sseuger Iving covered with blood nnd batt, red to death iu a comer of the car. A giiuice into the car next in the rear showed him that the Mie in tbe adjoining comparing nt had been opened and most of its content*, iu the shape of papers, packages, and en­ velopes, aenttered near and around it. By this time Watts, thu baggageman, had re­ covered enough composure to tell hi* ktory. Ho sold: “I was sitting ia the cor; the chains were up ou the door which went back to tho train, but tbe door in the front part of the car was uot locked, ns the car ahead was the ono to which was the messenger. He waa checking np his runs. I sat on. a trunk, and just after they had whistled for Minooka I heard a sort uf scraping sound on the floor, but not much—just as though some one had rnblied bis fool on the floor. Before I could tnrn around a big gun was poked over my,shoulder, and a manaaid: •Yon open your mouth or move a muscle, and I'll blow your btains out.' I could only see tbe lower part of hi* face; it was cov­ ered with some cloth or paper. I sat look­ ing toward the back part of the car toward Ihe renrof the train, when I beard Mime one at the safe, which, was behind me, snd could bear the rustling and tearing of jiuper*. This went on for n while, and the man who stood over me said to me. ' If you move or atir hand o.- foot before the train stops at Morris that man up there will blow the top of your bead off.' I rolled my eyes up, nnd there was man's hand stuck' through tiie ventilator with a gun to it In nlxmt five minute*, ns it seemed to me, the train slowed up for Morris, and 1 looked up. The hand wan gone, nnd I jumped out of tho ear. I heard no noise, nor any shoot­ ing. The finrt I heard wu*. as I said, the in:tu *jx‘uking to me, and at tbe same time putting the gun over my shoulder. They must have gotten into Nichol*' car first, and got the key to the safe before they came in to me." “Why didn't yon iump nnd get out of range? was asked Watte. •'The motion of the tram would make his aim unsteady, anyway. ev£n if he had fired." “O. tha outlook wiw too dangeron*. nnd. lx-.id<H. I did not suspect anything horrible would have been committed if I kept quiet." As soon as Warts hod told his rforv Con­ ductor Warper went forward to tbe en­ gineer. C Woods, telling him that Nichols nad been murdered. Tbe engineer grabbed a wrench am! tog-ther they - ent into the car where Nichol*'lay. 'in a statement mads nt Davenport, Engineer Woods said: “The distance from my place in tbe cab to the spot where tl •> dead messeng.-r lay wa* about twenty reef. There was n door iu tha end of tin- car next the engi .e, but that end was piled full of goods, which would i^rve to deaden the sound of the shooting, if any occurred. Then- was a strong wind blow mg from the weat, nnd tie­ sides we were running pretty fast. From th* 1 x»k« of tbe car a desperate and bloody battle had be*« fought. Nichols, the mes­ s ng«r, wa* dead, but his 'hands were rot cold. He had evidently tried to reach the automatic valve on the south side of tbe car at the Tight hand of ihe door facing ou'ward, and by thi* means stop the train. There was a chair at the farther end of tbe cur. Nicbola lay- on his back, tbe head tow anl thei engine, hi* fe«t tanpled in the chair. and LL bls face ' and body cut < all to pieces. ’Ihere wa* a l>eut piece ’ p of iron n foot long and seven-eighth* of un inch thick. From appearances be had been beaten with this and cut with some sharp in«tmment like a hatchet. He waa horribly mutilated. He might have been shot, bnt of this I am not sure. “Aa to the night and speed of running," the engineer continued, “it was snowing a little nnd the night wan very dark. It is mostly a prairie country from Joliet to Morris, but wfeirt of Morris there is a heavy belt of timber. From Minooka to Morri's is down, so J canid run fast, and I did so. I came into Morris at u high rate of speed, and when the train stopped it simply dropped. I do not believe any pers in could have left the train a block'from the {Kiint of Htoppimr with safety." According to Engineer Woods computa­ tion the robbera did not have more tlian thirty-two minutes to do their wort. Justifying tho conduct erf FiteJobn Porter. Iu the Hous*.

Frtten to n Depth of BOO Feet. Scientific men have been perplexed for many years over the phenomenon of a certain well at Yakutsk, Siberia. A Russian merchant in 182R began tc dig the well, but he gave up the task three yeuis later, when lie hail dug down thirty feet and was still in solidlyfrozen soil. Then the Russian Academy of Science dug away at the well! for months, but stopped when it \ad reached a depth of 882 feet, when the ground was still frozen as hard as a rock. In 1844 the Academy had the temperature of the excavation carefully taken at various depths, and from these data it was estimated that the ground was frozen to a depth of 612 feet Although the pole of the greatest cold is in this Province of Yakutsk, not even the terrible severity of the Siberian winters could freeze the ground to a depth of «MM) feet.

We will live to see the student and the succoseful practi­ tioner of to-day retire altogether from the actual practice of medicine, and es­ tablish himself as u consulting physi­ cian only. The learned physician or surgeon of the future will devote more time and attention to the prevention than to the cure of diseases. It is no great trick to learn to set a fractured bone or prescribe a dose of salts. Such things will be below the great doctors ot medicine, and will !>e rel­ egated to a class of practitioners about on a par with what are now called nurses. Hygiene and sanitation will be the study of the physician of the fu­ ture. Of course he must have a knowl­ edge of drugs, anatomy, physiology and such matters, but his ofhc« will be that of a consultant. The bone-setters and drug-prescribers will lay their cases before him, and he will advise them, pretty much as the advice of an old established counselor at law is sought by an attorney. The great question of the future will not be so much the euro as the prevention of dis­ ease.—Dr. Montrose A. Pollen. ix bee communities only one queen is permitted to develop, while the re­ maining females continue sterile, and become adapted to working duties.

They allow their commiseration and pity to shield the offender, and follow the dictates of their individual sympathies instead of fulfil ling the obligations of their office. By tho exorcise of what they call “consd’entiottH scruples," in tho jury-box, they frequently assist in evading rather than assisting the administration of the Jaw. They perform the functions of legislators rather than of jurors. They attempt to dispense justice to their own ideas of right aud wrong rather than ac­ cording to established rule, and by this menus outstep the bounds of tbeir duty and hamper the machineiy ot the law. It is not expected of them to determine whether or not capital punishment is consistent with the divine or expedient ax a human law. The state, when it places them in the jury-box, does not inquire their convictions upon .these points, any more than it interrogates ,i hem concerning th- ir opinions of the ixraelhs of free trade or the beauties of the Pythagorean doctrine of the trans­ migration of souls. It simply places them there to judge npon-the matter of fact whether the evidence -proves the accused guilty of the specified offense; and they are bound alike by their oath of office and their obligatious’as citizens to return a truthful verdict, irrespective of the conse peaces which this verdict will entail upon the criminal. They have no right to concern themselves with the punishment which the execu­ tive will indict upon him. If the rigor of the law lie too severe, they are not either morally or otherwise responsi­ ble. If the law be U* lenient, it is no concern of theirs, further than tho in­ terest they have in common with others in having just laws wisely and effective­ ly administered. ' It is an unwarranted assumption ou their part to presume to set up their individual opinion in opoiiilion to the dictates of law, and it is a breach of duty when they allow their “conscien­ tious scruples” to hinder them from faithfully performing their duties as jurymen, and conscientiously discharg­ ing the obligations of their oat Its. If they bo of opinion that the punishment attached to certain crimes—as for in­ stance, murder—is too severe, tho proper course to adopt is to excite the public mind to a sense of the injustice, and get the evil remedied through their representative i in the Legislature. Their isolated attempts to correct tho evil serve only to obstruct the adminis­ tration of justice, and thereby offer a premium to < rime, and a persistence in tliem may Ire fraught with disastrous consequences upon the community. The “conscientious scruples” of jury­ men should give place to their con­ scientious efforts to perform the duties of their office. ‘They have a serious trust committed to their care, the faith­ ful and fearless execution ot which is obligatory on them, both morally and socially. ’ Nothing so quickly instigates crime as the easy evasion of tho law; nothing che.-ks it so quickly os certain retributive justice. Even iu deliberate murder « man calculates his chance of detection and conviction, as is shown by his endeavor to com eal the traces of his guilt, and if, in addition to his chances of altogether escaping suspi­ cion and nrreat, he can count upon an almost certain acquittal of the grave offense when detected, he is not likely to have that wholesome dread of the omnipoteticy of the law to punish crime which is the surest preventive against its committal, and the best protection to the peaceful enjoyment of property and life.^-Exchange. It Saved Fuel, Anyway. My health got run down, I failed in trade, and I thought I would go to farming.

John C. Breckinridge need to nar­ rate some inMreating anecdotes about a RcYolutionary veteran named Hum­ phrey Marshall. who »n iu height with a <omi to tho good old Federal prniop Waxhington and Hamilton. He for many years a member of the Stale Leg'slatare, and waa Senator in Congrea* from 1795 to 1R01. Just Iwfore the war ot 1812 he had made himself e^HMrially obnoxious to the Democrats by denouncing their determination to involve the country in a war with Great Britain, and Gov. Scott declared that he would pardon any man who would shoot liim. A young fellow to whom Marshall had in some way given offense declared that he would undertake tho job the next court day, and when that came a crowd, including Gov. Scott, was on band to witness the sport About noon Marshall rode into town on horseback, got his mail at the postutlicc. transacted some bus ness at the Court Hoose, mounted, and stirted for h» home. The young desperado, well fortified with whisky, was on hand, and gallon ng after him he presented his Eistol and cried: “Halt! I mean to ill jou." Marshall reined up his nag, and vary coolly remarked: “Kill me. eh! But vou don’t mean to assassinate me?" “No!“ replied the sprig of chivalry, taking another pistol from his breast pocket, “here is a pistol for you. Take it and defend vourtelf." Marshall took the proffered weapon, and with a quick blow from it knocked the young fellow’s pistol from his hand, then, cocxing the pistol given him, the old hero shouted: “Now, dash you, turn around and walk your horse te the Court House door!** The subdued belligerent knew that hia life depended upon his obedience, and he returned, crestfallen, amid the cheers of the as­ sembled crowd. When they reached the Court House, Marshall said: “Now go and drink Tom Jefferson's health. Its all you're good for.” And with a graceful bow he again st-irted home­ ward. Rev. Dr. Szold the rabbi of a Jew­ ish synagogue at Baltimore, who was often at Washington during the war, said very correctly that it was the martyr President's nature to argue a point, but that when peraons would come to him with complaints he often gave them his views in a short and comprehensive parable. He would thus often unravel an "intricate and knotty Question by his keen and incisive wit. As for instance: Some Western gentle­ men called at the White House und harangued Mr. Lincoln in on excited manner aliout the omissions and com­ missions of the aLftninistration. He beard them with his nsual patience, and finally said: “Gentlemen, suppose all the property you were worth was in gold, and you had put it in tho bands pf Blondin to carry across Niagara Falls on a tight rope, would you shake the rope while he was passing over, or keep shouting to him, " Blondin, stoop a little more,’ " Goa Little faster?' No, I am sure you would not. You would hold your breath as well as your tongue, and keep your hands off until he was safely over. Now, the Govern­ ment is in the same situation, and is carrying across a stormy ocean an im­ mense weight; untold treasures are in its bauds; it is doing the best it can; don't badger it‘ keep silence, and it will get you safely over.” Senator .^mes Jackson, of Georgia, fought one of the bloodiest duels on record. He was an Englishman by birth, bat he came to Savannah when a lad, studied law, was a leading Free­ mason, and fought gallantly in the Revolutionary war. He killed Lieut Go. . Wella in a duel in 1780, and was engaged in several other “affairs of honor," until he finally determined to accept a challenge on such terms as would make it his last duel. Bo he prescribed, as the terms, that each party, armed with a double-barreled gun loaded with buckshot and with a hunting-knife, should row himself in a skiff to 'designated points on op­ posite sides of the Savannah River. When the city clock struck twelve, each party should start and row his skiff to a small island in the middle of the river which was wooded and covered with underbruah. On arrivivg at the island each party was to moor his skiff, stand by it for ten minutes, and then go about on the inland until the meet­ ing took place. The seconds waited on the mainland until after ono o'clock, when they heard three gun shots and loud and* angry cries. Then all was stilt At daylight, as had been agreed upon, the seconds went to the island, and found Jackson lying on the ground, insensible from the* loss of blood, and hia antagonist lying across him, dead. Jackson recovered, but would never re­ late his experiences on that night, nor was he ever challenged again. Charles Sumner, when he was ar­ raigning the Grant administration, gave a cutting reproof to some Sen­ ators who persisted in talking while he atora was small, for the seuioo of the preceding day had extended far into the night; hat the galleriea were crowd­ ed, and among the occapants were a number of delegates to the Philadel­ phia convention. The omnibus appro­ priation bill waa taken up. whereupon Mr. Sumner moved ita poatj>onemant and spoke for four hours, denouncing Uen. Grant with great bitterness and oratorical power. Mr. Colfax called Mr. Pomeroy to the chair, and there were aeveral informal conferenoea among the Republican Hen at ora. Mr. Catq^pter left hia aeat and wont to that uf Mr. Conkling, with whom he waa chatting, when Mr. Sumner stopped sjkoaking, paused for a mo­ ment, and then, jminting to the Sen­ atom from New York and Wisconsin, said, in an angry tune: “Wlien that conference committee before me has that I may proceed?" There wu a roar ol laughter in the galleries, and Mr. Carpenter returned to his scat leaving Mr. Sumner a clear track. Hour after hour he went on, implied by a sense of the real and fancied in­ sults be had iwceived from the admin­ istration; but there were no more con ferences on the flour of the Senate.

Of these 7,670,400 are grouped as servants, instructors and professional men,1,810000 are tradesmen and earners, while 9.887,000 are manufacturers or employes in manufacturing trades. In seeking to classify workingmen it will not do to stop with the mechanics and trades­ men. who in 1880 numbered 5,647.000, for there still rwnains more than double that number, about twelve mil­ lions who earn their bread from day to day by lab.-r of some sort, aud are dependent upon their skill or intelli­ gence fdr the support their families. Yet in ordinary computations tbe greatest number of these 17,000,000 laboress are entirely omitted, although in every social problem they constitute factors fully as important as tbs small­ er numbers of artisans. The reason for tnis peculiar classification is not very clear; in fact it is unexplainable why thtf 8,000,000 farmers are not men tioned as laborers, since they do more actual work than any of the others.

WOMAB'8 WOBST EHEMY. Many are tbe foee of women, bnt of < tbe worse toes women baa ever had Ito encounter, liquor stands at tbe bead. Tbe appetite for strong drink io men has spoiled the lives of more women— ruined more homes for them, scattered more fortune for them, brought to them more shame, sorrow and hardship— than any other evil that exists. Tbe country numbers tens ot thou­ sands—nay, hundreds of thousands of women wbo are widows to-day, and ■it iu hopeless weeds, because their busbands have been slain by strong drink. There are hundreds of thousands of homes scattered all over the land, in which women live lives of torture, go­ ing through all the agonies of suffering that lies between tlie extremes of fear and dispair, because those whom they love, love liquor better than they do tlie woman they have vowed to love. There are women by thousand# who dread to hear at the door the step that once tilled them with pleasure, because that step has learned to reel under tbe influence of that reductive poison. There are women groaning with pain while wo write these words, from bruises and brutalities inflicted by hus­ bands made mad by drink. There can be no exaggeration made in regard to this matter, lieeause no human imagination can create anything worse than the truth, and no pen is capable of portraying the truth. The sorrow of a wife with a drinking . husband, or a mother with a drinking son. are as near th? realization of hell as can be reached in this world. The shame, the indignation, the. grief, the sense of disgrace for heraelf and children, tlie poverty, nnd not untrequently the beggary, the fear and the fact of violence, tlie lingering, life­ long struggle and dispair of countless women with drunken husbands, are .enough to make all women curae liquor and engage to expose it even where aa the worst enemy of the sex. A doctor with whom it was a settled principle never to speak to a liquor seller, wa* sent for to visit a saloon keeper's wife. He paid no attention to tbe summons although it was three times repeated. Tbe man then sent word that hia wife was as much oppos­ ed to tbe business aa the doctor himself and begged bim to came, assuring him that he would keep out of sight. Tbe doctor then went with alacrity, and tbe patient waa “on her feet again” after two or three visits.

There was no mistaking it—Eliphalet Babbitt vm in love. He-had all the gen­ eral symptoms of that species of heart dis­ ease, and some that were peculiar to him­ self. He lost his appetite, and that was no small loss to Eliphalet, though it wm a great gain to tho family. He grew moody end absent-minded, and was falling into a habit of stealing nwny to the woods at noon ■ end evening, and lying on his back under the trees. These, of course, were only general symptoms, but Eliphalet developed others characteristic of himself. For in­ meadow ho Idvariably put on hie Sunday clothek, even ta tho black gh>ves and irtiff bell-crowned hat. Thus equipped, he would seize his scythe or his rake and work steadily toward the little white cot­ tage with' the brown buns and patent fire­ father and daughter—lived. It was a rare sight to see that gaunt, clerical figure in black stalking by industrial degrees across the meadow, and every now and then rais­ ing a pair of shy, half-frightened eyes in the direction of the leaf-embowered cot­ tage,as though he suspected himself of being watched, and would like desperately wall to bo visibly assart'd of the fact. The extra­ ordinary attraction of the Perrivalo home­ stead to Eliphalet Babbitt, it might not take an oracle to divine, was none other then the fair mistress of the place—Miss OlorindaPerrivale. In fact, it was whisper­ ed abroad, in rural vernacular, that Elipbalet Babbitt was "smit" with “Clorindy" Perrivalo. What wonder if it were so? Clorinda Perrivalo was at trim and pretty a l«s as one sees in a year's wanderings. She j was as plump and well-turned as a ball of her own goldon butter, and hud a face and a pair of eyes that raised the mischief with every young fellow she looked nt. And then she had a wav—the pretty minx!—of lotting her long lashes droop upon her cheeks, when tho sbv vouth caught her glance, and actually blushing in sympathy with his confusion. Clorinda was on incor­ rigible flirt Unfortunately, she had lost her mother when a mere child, and, with­ out the restraining influence of woman­ hood upon her girlish playfulness and love of admiration, nod involved herself in a life of excitement and pleasure, which had gradually become tho very breath of life to Eliphalet Babbitt was among the latest of her admirers. Ho hod been ut school for six yean, vainly attempting to polish his rough but honest wit on tbe grindstone of culture; and now, but little changed— tho same awkward, good-natured, bashful, blundering but capable fellow—ho had re­ turned home, to displace tbe Greek verbs in his hair with hayseed, and get rid of the crudo mass of philosophies and science* which be had gorged, by a judicious regi­ men of plain home duties, and occasional eructations of local vernacular. He had met Clorinda Perrivale frequently since his return, at church; at picnics, and at home, and had fallen irretrievably in love with tbe village belle. During tho course of the summer in which our story opens, “Clorinda Perrivala's lore-making ’ had become tbe sub­ ject of so much ill-conmderod village gos­ sip that, one evening, as sho sat with her father on tho little honeysuckle-covered porch in front of tho cottage, he had said to her: “My girl, you have had your lov­ ers now for so long that don't you think you oould decide upon one for your partner in life?" Then, in answer to tho girl's quick Look of apprehension and pain, he hod quietly gone on to tell her of the village talk: of his own fear that she was trans­ greasing the bounds of conventional propriety by admitting equally the warm at­ tentions of so mauv young men; and finally, to ask her if, for hu sake, and tho sake of her dead mother, she would either cease giving encouragcmdfit to her suitors, or choose one of them, as best suited her own sweet will, for life. It was a plain, serious talk, such as every father of u motherless girl is bound and privileged to have, when the strange, wayward age of girlhood is budding into womanhood. Clorinda list­ ened with downcast eyes, and when he hod finished sho enmo and sat in his lap and laid her worm cheek against his, and said, with tears: “Father, you are right; I have been very thoughtless, and I thank you for what you have said. Goodnight!" and then she ran away upstairs to her own room, and cast herself on the bed, and wept, not bitterly, but tenderly, until the shadows of night, and the stillness, and tho stars brooded over the world, and she fell Fourth-of-July night there was to be a great and glorious celebration, with kpeerli­ en and cannon and fireworks, in the little city of Marbray. six miles down the river. Every man and boy in Newville had shaped his affairs during the previous six weeks to the one special end of attending the grand demonstration on that night. Now Clorinda Perrivale, merry and mischievous they were intending to keep tiw appointraent with Miss Pefrivate. Elipbidct went homo and pondered upon ths matter. He reflected that, it Clorinda were intending to make her choice from a nuperficial examination of some ten ortwrlvo yOnng men draswtd in their Sunday elothes and gotten up to “kill," ha would stand a pretty poor chance. If there were only' Burns way of getting rid of his rivals! It he could think of some plan to keep item Sway un the eventful night, ad£fe.r«k6 it appear to Clo­ rinda that they crii^l less about her than they did about a night’s fun in Marlirzy. why, his suit would be as good m won, for a girl of her spirit wouldn't stand snubbing by thq handsomest and mart agreeable young man that ever walked, Eliphalet put on his thinking-cap, and drew it tighter than ho ever did before. He concocted all sorts of scheme*, but rejected them oub after Use other os impracticable. All of a sudden ho started up as if he had been sit­ ting bn a box of dynamite. “By the great horn spoqn!” he exclaimed, striking hit leg with the pnlni of his hand, “I’ve got it now!" Hu nodded so emphnticallythai his hair tumbled down over his forehead, and gave him the appearance of a very much exaggerated sky terrier, “I've got it, sir! I’ve got it!" ho repeated, -in louder tones, leaving any chance listener to surmise for himself whether he meant he had tho de­ lirium tremens or the cr-t of perpetual motion. He then din«cd nil around the room on one foot, and ended up by taking a running jump on to the bed and * bringing down the whole ntnictura in one confused mass of slats, pillows, blankets, and bedAny one loitering around tho Babbitt farm-houM at about eight o'clock on the evening of tfie 4th of . July, 18—, might have seen a tall, gaunt figure, neatly array- , ed in blacky emerging fr^m the shed do<X with a tin-pail in oneJband itad-irS^drthandled brush in thojother. That'figure belonged to Eliphairt Babbitt, and that pail to his mother, and in that pail was lord. Now it happened that the regular path of Clorinda Perrivale's suitors lay across the vast meadow aforesaid, over the fence and acrosR.a good-sized brook by means of a single log. They took this path because it brought them to tho rear of the’hause, nnd relieved them of the disagreeable necessity of saying good-evening to Mr. Perrivale, who usually sat on the front porch at the evening hour, smoking his pipe. (It is to bo noticed as a universal fact in love affairs that tho suitor, however, well received, always keeps shy of the girl’s mole parent.) Eliphalet Babbitt was aware of the cus­ tom of his rivals, because it was one that he himself habitually practiced, and to­ night a grim smile sat upon his lipa, os ho pursued his wav across the fields iu tho soft summer twilight, lard-pail in hand, and with his love-speech already made out in his heart. Tho shadows of early night were just closing round, as he climbed the fence and approached the .log bridge over the brook. Looking carefully about Lim to see that no one was witness to his dt*ed, ho flung himself astride of the log, with his back to the Perrivalo cottage, opened Ids pail, dipped the brush in the lord, and pro­ ceeded to apply a liberal coating of it to the already ‘ smooth-worn log. ns ho hitched along backward toward the opposite bank. When his task was com­ pleted he hid pail nnd brush under tbe bank and hastened up tho path to the cot­ tage. Clorinda was Kitting in her little work-room with the vine-covered window .as he drew near, and she merrily badu him come in without knocking. Oh, how beauti­ ful sho looked rocking back and forth in the dusk-light, against tbo background of tho vine, her pure white droits of muslin but half concealing her round white arms and marble shoulders! Eliphalet shyly sat down on the edge of a chair, and timed his bellcrowned hat round and round in his nerv­ ous hands. They talked—or rather, shu talked—pleasantly nnd quietly for a little while, listening in tho pauses to the mon­ otonous chirp, chirp of tho cricket and the croaking of the frogs on the banks of the brook. Deeper and deeper grew tbe shad­ ows. till the figure $ white seemed like a substanceles-s tiling seen dimly in a vision, and tho figure in black had almost melted away into the darkness of the inner room. The girl had ceased to talk much. Her face was turned away from Eliphalet, and she seemed to bo looking out anxiously, as she rocked, through tho narrow spaces of the vine. At length a dead silence prevailed. Eliphalet's tongue was so dry that he could not speak, and his wits were drier still of words to speak to tho beautiful girl, with her thoughts apparently so far away from him. Suddenly there was a heavy ’splash from the brook below. "Ob, my!” cried Clorinda, starting ns if suddenly'wakenod from a dream. "That rock has fallen out of tho bank—I knew it would!" “What lock, Clorindv?" uked Eliphalet, hitching his chair a little nearer in the dark, under cover of tho sound of his voice. “Do you mean the big rock by the bridge?” “Yes," answered Clorinda. “Did you notice it?" “I guess I- did,” exclaimed Eliphalet, glad to get upon a subject of conversation in that trying moment. “I ’lowed that rock was to fall one of these days. I told fattier eo. Did it frighten you, Clorindy?" (Here he started to hitch a little nearer, out his chair creaked, and he forebore.) “Yes, it did," admitted the girl. “I must hav- been thinking------ " Splash! “Gosh, what a mushrat!" exclaimed Eliphalet, the cold sweat starting out all over-him. “Wish I’d a been there withe gun!" “Was it a muskrat?" asked Clorinda, curiously. “It didn't sound like a stone." “Yea, it was,” asseverated Eliphalet, roundly. “I know h mushrat splash, every time. Did you ever sec n mushrat, Clorindy?" (Creak, creak, from tbe chair.) “No, I never did." exclaimed Clorinda; “but I have seen their holes." “8o'va I, so've I!" exclaimed Eliphalet, immensely tickled at the coincidence. “When the brook gets down real low and hayin's over, so there won't be naylody round to bother us. I'll show you rnore'n fifteen or sixteen of ’em, all in a------ ” Splash! “That was a fish!" cried Clorinda, posi­ tively. “So ’twas!

So do—I."

Bill Nye on Hydrophobia. I take occasion at this .time to ask the American people m one man. what ar« we to do to prevent tbe spread of the most in­ sidious and disagreeable disease known as hydrophobia? When a fellow-being hai to be smothoiod, aa.wn« the case the other day right here in our fair land, a land where tyrant foot hath never trod nor bigot forged a chain, we look anxiously into each other's faces-and inquire, what shall wo do? Shall wq go to France at a great expense and fill, our systems full of dofe virus and then return to our glorious laud where wo may fork over that virus to posterity and thus mix up French hydrophobia with the navy-blue 'blood of free-born American citizens? I wot not. If I know that would be my Inst wot I would not change it That is just wot it would be. But again. What shall we do to avoid getting im­ pregnated with the American dog and then saturating our systems with lhe alien dog of Buris? It is u serious mutter, nnd if we do not wont to play the Desdemona net, wo must take some timely precautions. What must those precautions tie? Did it ever occur to the average thinking mind that wo might squeeze along for weeks without a dog? Whole families have existed fur years after being deprived of dogs. Look at tho wealthy of our land. They go cn comfortably through life and die at last with unanimous consent of their heiia doglcss. ’ Then why can not the poor gradually toper off on dogs? They ought not to stop all of a sudden; nut they could leave off a dog nt a time until nt last they overcame the per­ nicious habit. I saw a man in St. Paul Inst week who was once poor, nnd so owned seven variegated dogs. He was confirmed in the habit. But he summoned all his will power at last nnd said he would shake off those dogs and become a man. He did so. nnd to-day he o*ns a city lot in St Paul, and seems to be the picture of health. The trouble about maintaining a dog is that he may go on for years in n quiet, gen­ tlemanly way, winning'the regard of all who know him. nnd then all of n sudden he mav hydrophobe in the most violent manner. Not only that, but he may do so while we have company. He may also Into nur twins ar the twins of our warmest friends, lie may bite us now and wo may laugh at it. but in five years from now, while we may be delivering, a humorous lecture, we may burst forth into the audience and bite a beautiful young lady in the parquet on the ear. It is a solemn thing to think of, fillowcitizemt, and I appeal to those who may read this, ns a man who may not live to see a satisfactory political reform—I appeal to you to refrnip tram the dog. He is purely ornamental. We may love a good dog. but we ought to love our children mon*. It would bo a very, very noble and expensive dog that I would agree to feed with my only son. . I know that we gradually liecnmo at­ tached to a good dog, but some day bo may become attached to us. and what can be sadder than the sight of a leading citizen drawing a reluctant mad-dog down the street by main strength and the seat of his pantaloons? (I mean his own, not tho dog's pants. Thia joke will appear in book form in April. The book will be very reassonuble, and there will be another joke in it also.) I have said a good deal nlxiut the dog. pro nnd con, and I am ndl a rabid dog abolitionist, for no one lores to hnvt»- his clear-cut features licked by the warm, wet tongue of a noble dog any more than I do; but rather than are hydrophobia Ixwonie n national characteristic or a leading indus­ try here, I would foregothe dog. . Perhaps all men lire that way, however. When they get a little forehanded they for­ get that they were once poor, nnd owned dogs. If so, I do not w)sh to bo unfair. Let us yield up our dogs and take the affec­ tion Unit we would otherwise bestow on them and lavish it upon some human b*jk ing. I have tried it and it works well. There are thousands of people in the world, of both sexes, who aro pining nnd starving for the love of money that we daily shower on the dog. If the dog would be kind enough to re­ frain from introducing his justly celebrated virus into the persons of those only who refuse to kiss him on the moist, cold nose, it would be all right; but when a dog goes mad he is vefy impulsive, and he may be­ stow himself* on an obscure man.

Recent .experiments confirm the opinion of sanitary authorities that, though natural soil is an excellent filter for impure air that may pass through it, it is a poor filter fA infected Water. Mr. Raphael Bumpolly, of the National Board of Health, finds that sand inter­ poses absolutely no barrier between wells and infection with germs from cesspools, cemeteries, etc., lying even at great diittav.cea in the lower wet stratum of sand;and that it is probable that a dry grave!, or possibly a dry, coarse sand, is no obstacle to the free entrance into houses above of these, or­ ganisms. which swarm in the ground around leaky drair a. Colonel Morriaon, of Illinois, and Senator Voorhees, of Indiana, have intimate friends for years. Few people are probably aware, however. that this friendship had its origin in an episode which promised at that time to bo fraught with the gravest conse­ quences for the Indiana statesman; Morrison and Voorhees mado their en­ tree simultaneously upon the stage of national politics in the Thirty-eighth Congress. This was in 186 after Mor­ rison-had resigned his command in the army from wounds received at Donald­ son. Morrison was u^rar Democrat; Voorhees a peace-at-any-price Demo­ crat. Washington at that time was au unsafe pla -e for men who did not be­ lieve in a vigorous prosecution of the war. The streets of tho city, end even the corridors of the Capitol, swarmed with soldiers who needed but a word of encouragement to -Kweep every rebel sympathizer into the Potomac Biver. It was at this point that Voorhees made a speech in the Bouae opposing tho paiwage of a certain war measure. Dtjriug tho course of his remarks ho was several times interrupted by Gen­ eral Garfield. ol Ohio, who at length transgressed the law of parliamentary courtesy by pronouncing Voorhees a liar. Owing to tho confusion and dis­ tance which separated tho two mem­ bers, Garfield’s remark was not heard by Voorhees, who left the chamber at the conclusion of his speech. About midnight of that day, while*busy in his rootnv a proof cf his remarks was sent to him for revision. Glancing careless­ ly over the sjieech he was horrified to see this.interjection. " • “Mr. Garfield (interrupting)—If the gentleman jiersista in making that statement I pronounce him a deliber­ ate liar!" .. •• • For a moment Voorhees was too much astonished, to speak. Thon, turn­ ing to James C. liobinson, of Illinois, who happened to be present, he said: “If Garfield does not apologize for this language I must fight him. I can never return to my constituents without de­ manding and receiving satisfaction. Will you aid mo in tho matter?" But Robinson objected. After some further conversation Robinson said: "Why don’t you nee Colonel Morrison ? Ho has a room in this honsu and I have no -doubt can g.vo you bolter advice than I." Morrison was asleep when the two Congressmen reached his door,- but he speedily aroused himself and listened to Voorhees’ ston-. At its conclusion tho latter said: “If you carry a chal­ lenge -to Garfield you uro liable to a heavy fine and imprisonment Are you w iling to risk the consequences?" Morrison mado no reply, further than nodding his head aflirmativelr. Then, taking the “proof" fn his hands, he started for Garfield’s house. It was after 1 o'clock when ho reached it Garfield was sitting in his library at work. Morrison briefly stated his er­ rand. “Did I sav that?' asked Gar­ field, incrudul&usly. For answer Mor­ rison pointed to the proof. “I am directed by Mr. Vooihoos,” he con­ tinued, “to insist upon a t ajxilogy or a tight.’’ Garfield replied, with dignity, “1 was in error, and am nothsbnmod to confess it I uttered those words in a moment of excitement It did not oc­ cur to mo that I spoke sufficiently loud for the official reporters to bear me," nnd, seizing n pencil, ho oblit; rated tho words with so much vigor that the ]>oint of the instrument cut through the pa­ per. Morrison returned to Voorhees’ room and stated the result ol his mis­ sion. Voorhees wav delighted at the result. If it hod been necessary to challenge Garfield, and the fact had become known, tho infuriated soldiery would have torn him to pieces. It is no wonder ho felt grateful to Morrison for his successful management of tho affair. He has been one of Morrison's closest friends ever since. Sensation vs. Bible Preaching. No doubt many of the clergy would make excellent political speaker's, comic lecturers, or actors ou the stage, but it would be hardly fair for them to appear in the church’s livery aud claim secular popularity on account of their cloth. No man can serve two maeters, or act us chaplain and jester at the same time. It is true that tbe stipends of tbe clergy are small, and, although they who preach tho gospel still live by the gos­ pel, they do not fare sumptuously, but getting food and raiment have there­ with to bo content. Tho churches pay what they can for pastors, not for secu­ lar lecturers; and if tho latter be what they want they need not pay an annual stijiend at all. Even the most agnostic of skeptics have admitted that tho Bible has no o jual as an instrument of lit­ erary and philosophic cu turo. It gives ’employment to the highest and finest faculties of tho mind. Tho clergyman who substitutes literature for theology, Shakspeare and the other pocta for tbe Bible, Tyndall aud Darwin for St. Paul, social science for tho Sermon on the Mount, gives hh congregation stones for bread, and shows clearly that ho made tho great mistake of his lifo when ho took ujion him the pastoral office and became profeaaedly a preacher of the everlasting gospel. Hoodwinking a Hen. Mr. Ingenious Workhard has per­ formed a great service for his country, it will be observed, and he deserves a crow-mo from every thoughtful citizen. Of course ho will uot receive one from every thoughtful citizen, but it he did it would be no more th .n he deserves. 0 Mr. Workhard was the happy pos­ sessor of a good fat hen. which, like other good fat hen*, laid one egg a day, including Sundays. Mr. Workhard, however, was not satisfied with what his good fat hen accomplished in this direction, bo he set about to devise ways and means by which it woald be jiersuaded to add to the daily delivery. Coaxing proved (hen) fruitless and cruel treatment was in vain. Workhard racked his brain and studied. At last he hit upon a plan. 00 A nest with a faho bottom was con­ structed.

Madame Mohl was excessively sensi­ tive on the subject of her age. At the age of 57, then Mary Clarke, she was married to Julius Mehl. This passage is from Miss Kathleen O’Meara’s recent book: “Merimee. M. Mohl’s tomoin at their marriage, used to tell a story of her answering the Mayor when ho asked her age: ’Monsieur, that is no business of yours; if it were, I would jump out of tho window sooner than tell you.’ Sixty-eight seemed to be the period beyond which, to tho last, she never owned that sho had passed, and it was very amusing to see now cleverly she kept to this date. Her friends would sometimes maliriowily try to entrap her into lM*traying her age, but they never succeeded. One of them tells me that ho never knew her to fail to make the subtract on instantly and cor­ rectly. For instance, if. he sa:d: ‘Why, dear Madame Mohl, that was fifty years ago!’she would reply: ‘Yes, so it was; I was but 18 al tho time;’ or, ‘Yes, it must be sixty years since that hap­ pened!’ ‘Yes, I remember; I was then a child, 8 years old.’ “There was no surer way of provok­ ing her anger than by alluding, oven inlerentially, to her real age. Count Walsh, when he met her for tbe first time as Madame Mohl. said to her, ‘Madame, as we are both of us very old, perhaps you oould toll me something of a cornjiatriot of yours to whose house I was taken fifty odd years ago by Thiers. She was a Miss Clarke, one ot the most cliarmmg persons I ever met.’ The dear old ladv blushed like a girl, pain­ fully divided between the pleasure of being so flatteringly rememta*red and tho texatien of having her age thus leought home to her."

About four-fifths of this crop was produced in the Sates of New York ami Pennsylvania, ticareely any woa raised in the more southern States, and very little south of Ohio. Tlie greatest yield re­ ported wax in Maine, where it averagod twotitynve buntals per acre.

While all was smiling outside, inside the mansion there were two persons who did mother and son. “See here, nutter, why not cut the whole affair?" asked Ix>rd Milne, moodily; “it's a hollow shitin and a mockery.” “Do you wish to drive me mad, boy?" she said, with a feverish glitter in herjtruy cyts. “It is only by putting on a bold front now that we can hope to get through our-difticultics.

LouTh Calvert was fifty years old—gray and aged beyond his years—the night he «at alone by the bedside of his dead wife. Th-? dark, gray shadow of long repreiaed •oxrow which rested upon his face was also •ct in the face of the dead woman. For twenty reais he had carried a dead heart within his breast—a heart dead to svexy sentiment of love, hope or aspiration: dead to all feeling but a terrible sense of having loved and lost. A deadly, unavail­ ing regret. The wife, npon whose pale face—still beautiful even m death, though . wearing upon it that ineffaceable impress of silent woe—he often looks, had. on their wedding day, unconsciously dealt the blow which struck all hope and light and joy from his life forever. But she never knew it. She never knew what it had been that so suddenly changed the eager, hopeful, dem­ onstrative lover of the morning into the calm, pave husband of the evening. .A cloud had suddenly passed over the sun, and tbe eclipse was to darken all their lives. For a long time the young wife hoped he would, after a while, become his old cheer­ ful, affectionate self again, but it was no! to be so—never again. It was evident thnt ho often attempted to shake off the heavy fetters of despair, but always vainly. At these times the efforts of his beautiful and aflhetionate wife made to cheer him and make him forget his sorrow only seemed in some vague way, she could not understand - •hi. reticence.

Et qnette at ! tels, both on the part of the propria- ! tor and his hirelings, and on tbe part ■ of the £uest, is a matter that calls loud- | ly for improvement. The hotel waiter alone would well repay a close atudy. From the tardy and polished loiterer of the effete East to the off-handed and serial equal of tho budding West, all waiters are deserving of philosophical scrutiny. I was thrown in contact with u waiter in New York last summer, whose manners were fur more polished than my own. Every time I saw him standing there with hts immediate pantaloons and swallow-tail coat and the far-away, chastened-look of one* who had been unfortunate but not crushed, I felt that I wax unworsHy to be waited upon by such a blueblooded ’ thoroughbred, and 1 often wishe<l that we had more such men in Congress. And when he wonld take my order and go away with it, and after the meridian of my "life had softened into the mellow glory of tho sere and allow leaf, when he came back, still ookinq quite young, and never having forgotten me, recognized me readily, after the long, Bull, desolate yearx, I was glad and felt thut he deserved something more than mere empty thanks, and I xaid to him: “Ah. sir. you still remember me after years of privation and suffering. When every one else-in New York has forgotten me, with the exception of tho confidence man, you came to me with the glad light of recognition in your clear eye. Would you be offended if I gave yon this trifling testimonial of my regard?” at the same time giving him my note at thirty days. J I wanted him to have something by which to always remember mo. and I guess he has. Speaking of waiters reminds me of one at Glendivo, Montana. Wo had to telegraph ahead in order to get a plane to sleep, and when we registered the landlord shoved out_ an old donblcentry journal for ns to record our names and postoflice address in. The oliice was the bar, and before we could get our room assigned us we had to wait. forty-five minute* for the landlord to collect pay for thirteen drinks and lick' a personal friend. Finally, when he got around to me, he told me that I could sleep in tho night bartender’s bed, as he wonld bo up all night and might possibly get killed and never need it again anyhow. It would cost me ^4 rash in advance to sleep oue night in the bartender's bed, he xaid, and the house was so blamed full that he and hix wife had to wait till things kind of quieted down and then they would have to put a mattress on the tifteon-ball-pool table and sleep there. I called attention to my valuable valise that hail been purchased at great cost, and told him that he would be safe to keep that behind the bar till I paid, but he said ho wasn’t in the sec­ ond-hand valise business, aud so I paid in advance. It was humiliating, but he had tho edge on me. At the tea table I noticed that the waiter was a young man who evidently hod not been always thus. He had the air of one who yearns to have some one tread on the toil of his coat. Meekness with me, is one of my characteristics. It is almost a passion. It is the result of personal injuries received in former years at tho hands of parties who ex­ celled me in brute force and who suc­ ceeded in drawing me out in conversa­ tion, as it were, till I made remarks that were injudicious. So I did not disagree with this waiter, although I had grounds. When he came around and snorted in my ear. “Salt pork. antelo|>o and cold beans," at the xamo time leaning his full weight on my back, while llo evaded the reve­ nue law by retailing his breath to the guests without a license, I thought I would call for what he hud the most of, so I said if he didn't mind, and it would’t be too much trouble, I wonld take cold beans. I will leave it to the calm, imptuuiionate and unportisan reader to state whether that remark ought to create illfeeling. I do not think it ought However, he was irritable, and life to him seemed cold and dark. So he went to the general-delivery window that led to the cold-bean laboratory, and remarked in a horse, insolent, and ironical tone of voice: “ 'Nother ----------- miBpicious-looking character wants cold beans."

She happened to look up and catch fdghi of her face in the gloss opposite, and its expression quite frightened her, it was ho fiendish—so indicative of murder, foul ami loathsome. “Bah! what am I saying?" she exclaimed. «I mean him no harm; 1 only wont time to get out of my difficulties.

A small factory up the river was No. 1, and the works st the falls were Nos. 2. 3 and 4, as 1 believe they are at the present time. Ev. rything went < n apinningly aud smoothly until tho year oi which I write. There were exactions on the part of the corporations that tlie inde­ pendent spirit of the fair spinners* and weavers could not brook. A rule was made that the great gate should be shut at bell ringing, and those who were late should go through the counting-room passageway to bo marked for reduction of pay largely disproportionod to the delinquency. This gave great offense, other measures awakened opposition, and on a tine morning tbe mills were idle. Every operative was out, leaving the overseers to run them alone. They met at some convenient square, aud, forming a procession, with a band, and bearing the American flag, they pa­ raded the town, under a leader whom I very well knew a year later, and a stal­ wart manly guard of one for their pro­ tection. The corporation eame down at once, the offensive rules were with­ drawn for the time, and everything went on harmoniously. But there arose again threats of war between Jarnos F. Curtis, a now agent, and Mill No. 2. He was not a fortunate selection for-the oflice, as he had been a sea captain, and endeavored to introduce ship’s disci­ pline among his crew of girls. It would not work, and a general irrita­ tion prevailed. The climax was reached when he ordered the windows of No. 2 to be nailed down. Thia was done over night, and in tbe morning, when • they found' out* what had been done, aud one of tho loom girls had fainted, their anger knew no bounds. A strike in that mill was the consequence. I saw the excited crowd from an upper window opposite, and such a .clatter of tongues has not been heard since Babel. Agent Curtis was sent for, and went among them, angry at first, but that bird wouldn't fight, and he camo down io coaxing, begging them to return, ar­ guing the necessity for the nailing down, which excited them the more, until.he compromised the matter by al­ lowing the windows to be opened "part way. Other inducements were given, and they returned to their work, but during the altercation with him they had spotted his black coat with cotton locks until he looked like a now de­ scription of leopard.—Boston letter in Hartford Post. - Skinning Cattie by Electricity. The depreciation in value of hides from what are known in the trade as "scores," “snips." and “cuts," says the San Francisco Clnonicle, is large, and the introduction of improved labor-sav­ ing appliances for taking off animal skins without injury to either the hide or the carcass has been so slow and of so unimportant a nature hitherto that tho thousands of persons engaged in tho industry on this coast can not but ex­ perience a certain degree of satisfac­ tion over the introduction in California of an appliance which would appear to lie what the trade has been waiting for all ajong. The invention is called an electric siding-knife, and is, like nearly all other good inventions, simplicity it­ self, being virtually nothing more than a slight alteration of the Edison in­ candescent or arc light, with the gloss bulb removed. The knife in construction resembles very much the receiver em­ ployed in telephone offices, and, like it, has a double set of covered or insulated wires attached to the butt end of the handle, connecting through the body o< the same to the cutting, or, more prop­ erly, the burning edge or wire, which is composed of platinum. The current is entirely under the control of the manipulator of the knife. After tho hide is opened in the usual way with an ordinary knife tho current is turned od, and the removal of the hide is be­ gun by long sweeps of tho aider. The principle is that of burning, as the plat­ inum edge ia brought to aa intense white heat, yet the edge is so arranged and protected by non-conducting shields that it is impossible to injure cither the hide or tlie carcass. In fact, tbe hide seems to be torta or pulled off by some unexplained force of the wonderful agent, electricity. It has been demon­ strated that meat will hold its color better and longer where the electric knife is used, this being accounted for by the fact that the pores are clcaed by the action of the current, which seems to leave a thin, transparent coating over the entire surface. Another ad­ vantage ia that the beef, after leaving the chill-room, never "sweats" aa un­ der the old system of removing hides. Aside from the increased speed with which the skin is torn off, there is an­ other advantage in the use of electrici­ ty. It is stated that the value of hides is increased from J to 1 cent a pound, as the fleahv side ia loft aa smooth and even as the inner side of a sheep's pelt One Better than Lubbock. “I see that Sir John Lubbock Las given the names of a hundred or so books that ought to be read to finish one’s education,” he aaid.

This name translated uieanE Rev. Masterror. H. — . areal .um. and many of hia aay lugs’have Immbj em.liabued in history and handed down to the prreeut time. His style ot humor wi“oftlte profound variety, but his style of penmanship, waa like that of F. E Spiuuer, who did some paragraph work at one rime for tlie treasury de­ partment. Confucius ia said to have been a’ kind of Chinese Moses, and jjeople who knew belli there gentle­ men say they had many strong perlonal characteristics in common. He was born in Loo on June lUtli, 551 B. Cm and when he went back there to lecture, after he became a groat man, he hiul only 17.50 in the house. His old neighbors any that he had '»ren very mush overestimated, and that They knew him when he waa a boy. they.also said that1 there were dozens of other boya.in Loo who were just aa good humorists as Confucius ever dast be. One of tlie reporters on the Loo Vindicator asked him if he had ever , written anything for publication, and after the lecture was over, announced in hia-paper that the lecture business waa “over-done.” Confucius lost his.father at tbe age Of three years, and so had to rustle for himself, aa he says. He wns essential­ ly a self-made man, and never wore suspenders, even in tho beat society, he wore a style of dress which has | since become very popular in China, consisting of wide pantaloons and a oolong imtaway coat. His complexion was spittle on the yellow order, am! hia mouth waa inclined to aag at one corner. He became a teacher in the graded school at Loo nnd carried cold pork and sandwiches for hia dinner. When asked what one sentence would best express the conduct most fitting for on£s whole life, heaaid: “Do unto others aS you would not have them do to yoa." Thia reutence in sulwtance nfterwarda appeared in bonk form, and is now widely quoted. It is a popular piece of advice, and many people give it to other people. Confucipa was a groat man and the leading humorist of his day. He pub­ lished a small paper at one time, doing all the typographical work with a marking brush. His aiguature was a marvel ot individuality aud looked like the foot prints of a Kangaroo that hail been scared out ot a mudhole and lit on a pillow-ahaiu. Butdeath haa claimed him. Like the man who had done the chores and elected the can a.id blown out the gas, * he lay down to enter the dreamless sleep which comes along to those who have done their work well. Not in the midst of clashing aims, beneath the cloud of war, amid the shout'of victory and the yells of defeat, not on the tough frontier with his boots on, nor in the hospital chased by thephantoms of delireus tremens, but iu a calm dispassionate manner Confueiua ac­ cepted his doom. Tbe Chinese papeis very truthfully say: “His death has cast a gloom over our land and filled a long felt want. An express train was whirling along over tbe Lehigh Valley railroad, behind time aud running at a furious rate of speed, when tbe engineer caught sight of an old lady slowly pottering ahead upon the Vitek. Instantly the whistle was blown. No heed, however, was taken of it. But thinking the venerable dumb would get. out of.danger in due time tbe speed was not slackened, though tlie screaming of the whistle made tbe mountains ring. Yet still she (tbe woman) kept slowly on, neither turning to tlie right nor to the left, un­ til the engine waa almost upon her.

It waa rather warm in church, and tbe warm air was conducive to sleep. The drummer yielded to tlie drowsy god, and after nodding a little while sank into a profound slum»»er and slept through the minister’s rather long nnd dry discourse. The audience sang a hymn, tint! the drummer slept on. Then the evangelist began his a<l dress, and wound up hia fervid appeal with thia request: "Will all of you who want to go to heaven please rise!" Eyery-one in the church except the sleeping drummer arose. When the evangelist asked them to be seated one of tbe brothers in the same pew with the sleeping Mrummer accidentally brushed against him as he sat down. The drummer rubbed hi* eyes, and, partially awake, Iteard tlie last portion of the evangelist’s request, which was: “Now I want all of you who want to go to hell to stand up.” . The drummer struggled a little, leaned forward unsteadily, and rose from his seat in a dazed soit of way. A sort of suppressed laugh he beard from some of the younger people, and an ex­ pression of horror he noticed on the faces of the older ones. Steadying himself against the rail, be looked at tbe evangelist an instant and then said: “Well, parson, I don’t know exactly what we’re voting on, but you and I seem to be in a hopeless minority.

Adum’s Peak is clothed from base to summit with ono -great robe of ravth and fabled story. Not a rock but has its histo y. not' a brook without it* le­ gends of worshiper or worshiped. Be­ neath this overhanging cliff Gautama Buddha slept;- upon tho dizzy height Buddha, in his second incarnation, nrayetl. Althongh specially snered to Buddha it is not only Buddhists who regard this mountain 'os n holy spo’; Hindoos and Mohammedans respect and reverence it, ns. too, did our own Chris­ tian people, ih earlier and simpler times than these. But although tbo whole mountain is regarded as holy by all Oriental people, it is only the sacred footprint on tho bold < rag at tbo very summit that is actually worshiped. To perform a pilgrimage to this nnd to lay nn offering upon it is to a Buddhist what a visit to Mecca is to a Mohamme­ dan. The time for the greatest num- I ber of pilgrims to visit the mountain is April and May, but all tho year round j a steady stream of devotees flows to this shrink of tho most holy ot all the relics of their great teacher.

When the hunter has found a rubber tree, he first clear* away a npaco from the roots, and then movea on in Hearch of others, returning to commence opera­ tion us soon as he has marked all the trees in the vicinity. He first of ail digs a holo in the ground hard by, and then cuts in the tree a V-shaped in­ cision with a machete, as high m he can reach. The milk is cangbt as it exudes and flows into the hole.’ As soon an the flow from tho cut haa censed the tree is chopped down, and the trunk raised from tho ground by means of oxi improviaed trestle. After placing largo leaven to catch the sap. gashes are cut throughout the entire length, aud the milk carefully collected. When it first exudes, the sap is of the whiteness and consistence of cream, but it turns black on expo­ sure to the air. When the hole is filled with rubber, it is coagulated by adding hard soap or the roots of the mechvacan. which have a most rapid action, and prevent the escape of the water that is always present in tbe fresh sap. W’hen coagulated sufficiently, the rubber is secured by bark thongs, carried on the back of the hunter to the bank of tho fiver, and floated down on rafts. The annual destruction of rubber trees in Colombia is very great, and the industry must soon disappear alto­ gether, unless the government puts in force a law that already existix, which compels the hunters to tap the trees without cutting them down. If tins law were strictly car tied out, there would be a good opening for commer­ cial enterprise, for rubber trees will grow from 8 to 10 inches in diameter iu throe or four years from seed. The trees require but little attention, and they begin to yield* returns sooner than any other. These that yield the great­ est amount of rubber flourish on the banks pf the Simu and Aslato Rivera.

Here is one of them in rough out­ line. It is by far the worst snd most blasphemous.we have ever heard of in Central Germany—a distinct piece of witchcraft ss it seems to ns. To the wards of the charm, distinctly noted down at the time, we regret that wo cannot refer. The recipe without them stands thusCatch a toad on Easter Sunday morning before sunrise, take s piece of soft wood—pine, etc., not beech nor oak— a little larger than the toad, and then nail the wretched creature upon it fa the form of a crons, hang it an an isolated pole toward the sun. thus gradually changing its position with the progress of tbe day; keep sprinkling it every now and then with water, for if it dies before the sun sets your labor has been in vain. If, w hen the sun goes down, ho is still partially, alive it is enough; take him to the nearest ant-bill and bury him fa it. On Whitsunday dig .him up. If no one has disturbed tbe hill you vrill find the bones quite clean .and white; put them in a little bag, hang it round your neck, and you will always win fa games of chance. This charm is, of course, a violation of every law of hu­ manity and religion; a giving oubb self to the devil oven more formally than if one signed a contract with him in one’s own blood. If we could repro­ duce the words to be used at the dif­ ferent hours it would be seen, imperfect ► as our account then would be, what mysteries are car catured, and there­ fore violated. Tho man who efaploys such means simply aayfi: “I shut my­ self uni of the told of Christ; all I want is to win at cards." The charm was preserved by an old man who had served in tho wars of 1813 and 1815. Another man, a comrade of his, whom he had earned wounded off the battleHeld, had given him, when on the point of death, his “lucky bag," arid told him h'.w to make' a new one. Tho veteran did not know !r6m what district tho man he had saved for a day or two had come; his knowledge of the charm itself was evidently inadequate; ho protested that he had never tried .t; but the bag und the bones wore there, a little blue silk bag, worn sud frayed, with a name worked upon it that looked like Eliza— a girl’s uanii*, who was youn£ some ninety years ago, wo may suppose, and who put a ring, or j>erhu|>s a low gold pieces, her scanty earnings, into tho bag and gave it to her lover before ho went away. It was full of toad’s bones when we saw it A Dyspeptic on Cooks. Against all cooks, without regard to age. sox, or previous condition of ser­ vitude, I launch tho anathema of a dyspeptic man. Man began by being carnivorous; he has developed into a dyspeptic vegetarian. As a savage he was happy; on the introduction of the frying-pan he l»ecame a misanthrope. It would, perltaps, not be stretching a point to say that he only became sui­ cidal after iho invention* of a “boiled dinner.*' Bad cookery has been at tha bottom of all the deviltry that the hu­ man race has been guiltv of. I think that with sufficient time I could provo to you that a fried cake soaked in lard was at the bottom of Cain’s murder of Abet Talk about tho cruelties of the Boman emperors! Bosh! Dyspepsia —nothing else. The cooks spoiled the stomachs of Nero, Commodns, Yitellius, and those unfortunate men con­ sequently became gross and cruel, as might have been expected. Talk of Napoleon’s ambition! It was not for conquest, but for cookery. He did not lead armies from town to town, from country to country, for gain or per­ sonal advancement. Bless you, no. He was searching for a cook. In like man­ ner bad cooking has caused all the jreat movements that have occurred to cha-ge the political geography of the globe. giooe. It it wasn waan ti the me stamp Hiunip act oct nor the tue Oi ^^ution ^.,.d l*ie Britum colouiea to unloosen themselves from Mother Britannia’s apron­ strings. Far from It. It was a desire to escape the shocking bad dinners of John LulL And so on through all the world’s history you will find c uisiue in­ fluencing the lives and characters of men, for good or bad as the case may be. The gridiron is mightier tor than the pen, and before the cook-stove tho power of the printing press fades into insignificance. The first culinary feat was the broiling of meat and the boiling of roots. From this to the mysteries of tho French cuisine, what a journey! And by. far the greater portion of the dishes now in rogue are purely cultivated, and not acceptable even to the child born after genera­ tions of such feeding. Who, for instance, really enjoys his first cup of tea, bis first sweetbread, his first olive? But there me many things which all men seem to like. If a man ever lived who refused a good mellow apple I never knew it; nor yet Ahat ingrate who refused a broiled beef­ steak. And ot course many kinds of food come to be a distinctively national taste. For example, we can never abet the Chinese in their love for the tender rnd luscious rat, the Arabian in his passion for sour breid, or admire the Turk’s conglomeration of grease, and they perhaps would raise a similar ob­ jection to our stewed pumpkin. It hu always been a matter of cariosity to me to know what sort of dishes kings and queens affect. Does the Czar of all the Ruasiaa ail down to a dish of friz­ zled ham?

But' thrre was no mistaking Dick’s voice; bemde.s, ths window* were open, and from his •haded seat Longford could look straight into the apartment. It had commenced by Kit’s wondering what she would wear at het brother's wedding. Dick, who had gone into tho “den,” ns be called it, to ask a loan - from one of tho girls- it had come to that with him—renmrk. d that he “didn’t want to l>e disgraced by a dosidyteh lot of sisters, und they must snake a'good appearance, s hale ver ,lmppeoed.’' . “Well,” said Kittie. “I can’t ‘appear’ very well in a made-over frock, and that is what it will be. Oh. dear! I wish I need not go to your wedding, Dick; do lot me stop at home.” “And create a scene to. begin with," re­ torted Dick crossly, his temper rising, ns-it invariably did nt the least suggestion of economy'or retrenchment. "You’ve only to order a gown, and that is easy enough done." ’ “As for. ordering a ^own," Kit replied, “without Iho money to pay for it, I never will. I tell you, Dick, once you. are mar­ ried, all this sham and subterfuge we now resort to will be dotie away with.

For a moment ho -was dazed. Then, remembering h'imself, •nd where he was, ho carefully retreated to his room unseen, there tojiondrr upon what he had heard. In spite of himself, and all tho appear•ncee to the contrary. Longford was obliged to believe that what he had heard wm true. To giro color to it all now, he rememlx-red xnany little things ho hud not thought of bclore. One fact stood out «haq> and clear from all the rest, and that was, during all ■the time he had known them—some months now—be had never seen the young ladies idle save when wbc|i summoned somo<imes by callers to the parlor. Often and often he had seen Kk herself —and hero ho admitted he was no longer so ■disinterested a» lie hnd been—sitting at her ease in that sclf-samo parlor laughing with the gay people who often insisted upon jfhuuting up tho Fentons” in their country retreat, with that endleM strip ot embrotd■ery iu her fingers, always cheerful, but al­ ways busy. If he had wondered at this inoeasaut industry tbe ennse was now cx-plained. and he wondered no longer. Then he thought about Jo, and ot her bending hour after hour over her writing •deak, as he had seen her, though he hsd Zievcr for a moment suspected her of writ­ ing articles for tho press, and paid articles at that. How was he, a stranger, to know that Jo’s “writing moods” hod already l>eoomo an established fact, and admitted of do interference, and that Gillian's hours for painting were respected by the sisters as so much capital in perdu T He remembered, too, with s feeling of shame, how, nxore than once, he had rallied Kit upon her ap­ parently endless strip of embroidery. His anger rose at Dick’s conduct; it was foolishncM and oat ot idl reason. Here, ifistead of the man breasting the storm of xniafortune and working for the sisters,’tho case wm revensod, aud the sisters toiled to support a brother in idleness. “Con he be a man?" thought Longford, indignantly. “No! Dick Fenton is a devil. Foor Kit, he soliloquized, pacing the floor, "you shall be sacrificed no longer if CHAPTER Vm. the taikt oonrAPA. Now to “work onenly and above board” for one's bread and butter is an excellent thing—in ita way. But Dick knew, if Kit did not, that for her to openly admit that she labored for her bread would be to find herself dropped like a hot wafer from that exclusive circle the Fentons were accustomed to revolve in. Society may. and does, forgive gilded vice; but the ’ line of distinction must bo firawn somewhere, and society openly draws it at the hand of toil. Longford realized this fact m he went into the city the ensuing morning, and was inclined to find exenoes for Dick’s mistaken policy of concealment. Where Longford clamed Dick more particularly was in Dick's saddling the entire bunnesa of self-denial nr>ct»4n« surtere. F was a strange cose, and Longford" would not have believed there existed «• thoroughly selfish a man .is Dick if he had not bad ocular demonstration of it.

It wm unusual for the expresamim to leave parcels al the Fentons’, for they did very little chopping, and Kit pulled off tho outer wrapper with something like dismin.

CHAPTER IX Timo in its steady march brought Dick's, wedding day »o near that now scarce four and twenty nonrn intervened between Him and the consummation of his hopes. It was the rfight before the wedding, and the hour was late; but late as it was, Dick stood concealed in the deep Bhado^r thrown by a friendly church spire, apparently waiting for some one. The city clocks were striking twelve when a slim, dark-robed figuM-fncped the street corner, and paused in tie saine con­ cealing shadow for*brief moment. '' " “Is that you, Florine?" / Dick advanced cautiously. The woman instantly joined him. “It is I," Baid she, slowly pacing by his'• side: “How mauv times must I tell you that our intimacy is ended?” said he in n.low and angry tone. "This is the lost time, positively, that I will accede to any request of yonrs for a meeting.” She laughed a sneering laugh that irri­ tated him Iwyond mea>mre. “You will’come when I send for you, Dick Fenton," retorted she recklessly, “and you will fetch me money." “I havo no money,” said he, savagely. “You have stripped me of nil I ever did hhve."' "If you refuse to give mo wbat I ask. I know how to get it," said she, threateningly. “How?” “1 will go to tbe church td-mprrow—the church were you are to be married, ^nd I will take your child there.-and pnttinJTit on your bride's knee will tell her its father is; her husband." ‘ He stopped short and looked at his com­ panion, a dangerous light shining in his! eyes. Ho had been drinking, not enough to make his tongue thick or his gait un­ steady—but just enough to have his anger, easily stirred; just enough to be guilty of a crime which in his saner momenta Dick would have turned from, shivering with horror at tho thought. “You'U not dare do that," cried he. “It would be my ruin.” Again she laughed, a mocking, maddening laugh that stirred the very devil in him. “Florine dares do anything," said she, coolly. "There wm once a time, Florino," Dick feigned a tenderness he did not feel, “when my wish was your law—a time when I be­ lieved you loved me------ " "Long passed—long enough ago," she in­ terrupted. “And have you so far forgotten that happy time that von can betray me now, when be­ trayal would be my certain ruin?" Florine turned fiercely upon him. “Forget!" she ejaculated. “I wish I might! Can I ever forget that you are a, villain—that 1 was once a happy, innocent, girl, and believed your falls promises? If I live a thousand years the remembrance of your baseness—your treachery to me—will haunt me. to the very end." “Granting all that, why do you wish to' ruin my nrospecta now?' My downfall can­ not nossibly do you any good." “Why?" turning upon him like a tigress. “Because I hate you so heartily your de­ struction will be enjoyable. Did you feel any compunction when you flung mo upon the streets a vagabond and a nobody?” He laid u restraining hand upon her shoulder. “Hush! you speak too loud." “Don’t touch me," endeavoring to shake him off; “I hate you." “Not bo loud—not so fast. Promise me to go to your home and wait patiently for the money, and I’ll let you go. Florine wm reckless. “I promise nothing, and I wish the whole world wm here to hear every word I say." Dick swore a deep oath. “Sometir^es people ore compelled to shut their mouths, whether they will or no; don't force me to improvise one of those times righthere.” "What’do you mean?" “I mean, if you dare do m yon spoke of doing a little while ago, that matters will be worse for you.-' said Dick, doggedly. She laughed bitterly. "Give mo the money, then; and now, or not at all." His hand moved closer to her throat; his breath came quicx and hard. “ You are sure you mean what you aay?" “All that, and more." like grin. She struggled desperately in his grasp, Aghting like a tigresv for her life. But after nil, she wat but a girl iu the hands of a maddened ril'ain. “We will see what you will do," said he. bis Hand* closing tightly about her neck. " You will die."

"Nothing very much. She was only my sister." Table Manners. Good table manners are founded on habits of punctuality, neatness, and order, united with that politeness which springs readily from a kind heart. Everything at the table should be done moderately. Do not bo impatient to bd served, or feel, while eating, that you must hurrv and get through so that yon can rush off to someth.ng else. 'Ihis is bad enough when it is necessary; it is almost inoxcruuble when it is not Avoid all unusual noise when eating. Never fill the mouth very full nor talk with the mouth full. Never leave the table with food in tbe mouth. Nover sit a foot off from the table, nor jammed up close against it. Never soil the tablec.oth if it is posDon't be groedy, and don’t try to eat all tho good things you can, and don’t carry off anything in your pocket to eat afterward. Don’t speak of it if you see any one else greedy. It is newer polite to ap­ pear to notice faults of others in company. Do not encourage a dog or cut to play with you at the table. Do not cut your bread—break it ’ Never express a choice for any par­ ticular part of a dish, unless re ।nested to do so. When asked what part of a chicken yon will have, save other people tbe trouble of choosing for you, and say what you will have, making some choice, though really not par­ ticular, as you might aay. * Never hold bones in your fingers while you eat from them. Cut tho meat with a knife, and do not make an effort to clean your plate or the bone you have been eating from too clean. Do not attract attention to yourself by calling loudly for anything, or by any boisterous conduct. We have seen children who mode their wants known by giving two or three loud knocks on the table with handles of their knives, celling at the same time, water! butter! Gtatoes I milk! or whatever else they ppened to wont at tbe time. We have seen others ait at the table, and while carving was being done, rub their fingers on the edge of the plate in front of them and feel around the in­ side of the tumbler also, so that 'when a plate with food upon it was exchanged for theirs the person receiving it felt unpleasantly. Don't be like such chil- Never handle dishes unnecessarily at the table, or plav with your spoon, knife, or fork. “A man ia known by his company, and his company by his manners.” ’ Do not pare an apple, peach, or pear for another at tho table without hold­ ing it with a fork. Japan, according to the new census, has a population of 3Htrx)Q,000, or about the same as that of the United States in 18*0. In area Japan is about five times the size of Pennsylvania.

The Waiter Gave Him Away. A Washington correspondent writes: It is one of the fallacies of the capital that there are no intoxicating li juors sold at the House or Senate restaurant. The other day a dignified but thirsty member of Congress took a auat in tha House saloon near a party of ladkw, and calling a colored waiter whispered to him to fetch a sing of whisky. Straightening up, the darky bawled out at the top of his voice: * “Cold tea for one." Now, the expression “Cold tea for erne" ia nj well understood at the Capi­ tol bar-rooms as “Hey, Rubel” is in a circus. Therefore, it is not surprising that the Congressman, who didn't want everybody in the District of Columbia to know that be was taking a nip of tha forbidden jnioa, got most infernally mad at the servant who gave him awav. Springing to his feci the memlrer grab­ bed the waiter by tha neck, and in hi* wrath exclaimed: -You ------- black ------- !

The mere fact that the letter be of no profit to tho receiver, and that to send an an­ swer will inure in no way to his benefit, is no excuse for neglecting to pay this debt which every man owes to society. Every man is born into tbe world under certain obligations to tho community, and it is on tbe condition of his hon­ estly meeting these obligation^ that ho cxn lay claim to membership in that community, with its attendant rights and privileges. Among these duties is that 6f aiding id the protection of your fellow from physical or moral outrage. If this duty were not fully recognized the crowded streets of a city at broad noon would be no mure secure for tho traveler than*tbe most lonely Western road at midnight.

There aro many other du­ ties and debts to which a human being falls heir tho moment he breather the breath of life, which we will not enumerate, but return to this mat­ ter of answering letters. There arc, of course, many letters which require no answer, such as those editors and business men often receive, such as merely contain some suggestion or in­ formation. There are other letters which deserve no answer. It is not to these we refer, but to the ordinary re­ spectful letters which gentlemen aro in the habit of writing to each other. Not to ncknowledge one of these is an un­ pardonable solecism. Yes, it is worse than a solecism, it is an impertinence. Naturally there may be many excuses for neglect—ill health, great press of business, domestic affliction, etc. Some people claim thut they are so overwhelmed with correspondence that they cannot attend to iL alL In such cases the person is generally of suffi­ cient importance to be able to afford a secretary.

The ladies of the' Colonel’s family were “discussing" the war one evening. Ono proof of tho 'strong effect the war had upon the popular mind is that it is often, even to-day, the subject of conreraation in numerous families. It is not the wonder of nine days, or nine years, but the recollections of a generation. •The Colonel** wife had-imbibed a great many of his opinions, and she was almost as good a soldier—to talk—as the worthy Colonel himself. “No," she said, i.u response to some sug­ gestion from her niece, “the Colonel doe* not think toe Southern women were worse in war-time than those of the North would have been under similar circumstance." “Perhaps ^e really does not think so," said the young lady, “but he always leans that way." “Well, here he comes. He can argue it cut with yon himself." A moment later footsteps approached *4he door and tho Colonel entered. “We have been criticising your stories, et,** said his daughter, “and cousin ks you are rather bard on the ladies.’* "I do not intend to be. I merely relate my atones becuusothoy are dram “Tho only way you can make amends is to tell another story, where tho ladies are ■bettor disposed," cried his niece, smilingly. The. Colonel shook his head as he sat down. “I scarcely know whether I remem­ ber a ston of that order or not. I have noticed that adventures with ladies usually happen to the bachelors, and I was married before I wont to tho front." “Then you can entertain ns with some­ thing that occurred to a single man." "Well," said the Colonel, after a moment of thoughtfulness, “I remember a story that caused some talk nt tho time.” He lighted bis second cigar, and oontinrM as follow*: “Aboutthe first thing a soldier becomes impressed with is the idea that he deoerves something better to eat than the commissary affords. At momenta of leisure his thoughts usually turn upon eating. “1* consequence, thev were often making oxcunion* in search of pigs and poultry. Some would roam about day after day and find nothing, while others were more for-' tunate. "Charley Wise was sai^ to be very lucky tn this respect. He seemed born for the good things of this world. The best green corn and the plumpest chickens—at least, •o his comrades declared—fall to his lot. “Early in 1862, when the Army of the Potomac moved from Washington, nearly everyone was in good spirits. It was the general opinion among the troops that we were to put a period to the Confederacy. “Tbe first discomfort we sustained w*n when we went on board the little steamer, and whop forced to disgorge the most choice contents of pur knapsacks. This forced Yielding up of the tn-oKun-s we had boarded caused a little discontent, but it soon wore off. “The next dny after boarding the steamer wo arrived at Old Point Comfort, and our tents were pitched amid the ruins of the ■once beautiful village of Hampton. “We were not pressed for food at that -time, but many, partly excited by tho strangeness and beauty of the country, partly by the idea that rests upon the sol•dicr that he deserves home thing unobtrin•able, wandered about ‘in search of wbat■ever they might devour.* “Late one afternoon Charley Wise started out alone. "He was a tall, well-made fellow; strong mule, quick witted, and venturesome ■to a degree. He soon bad left the camp far Behind, and, wandering around, lost his way just us darkness set in. “This disturbed Charley very little, and as he came in sight of a’ brightly illumi­ nated form house be resolved to enter the premises. and if he could pick up anything be wanted, to do so; if he failed, to inquire his way back to camp. “As he advanced he saw that the building was large and well appointed. There were an unusual number of lights, and he guessed that some festivities were in progress. “Entering the orchard, which iw upon tbe left side of the building, he made his way cautiously around toward the back of tho . bouse, where he supposed the out■buiidings were situated. “He discovered the stable and its ap­ pendages at last, but waa forced td take a roundabout course to reach it. Reaching ■the front comer of the building, bo sud­ denly found that further progress in that direction was cut off. “Two darkies sat npon the steps of the •table. . "Glancing around the comer, Charley «ould barely distinguish their forms. “Fearing discovery—gcn“------- --------- —’ in business similar to Ubi ■oasionally caught, nnd * •stood quiet for a moment.

A case in point would be as between-anitual? tied up in stalls and bedding day and night, and the horses should have blankets also tn winter.

Tho horse is a tropical and sub­ tropical animal. The mule requires to be kept warmer than the horse, and tho ass will soon pino and become worthless under ex­ treme cold. Ia fact, all our farm animal* are natives of countries where groen veg­ etation or other suoeulent food may bo supplied the year round. To pre­ pare them for tho inclement seasons—, storms in the winter in tho tropics, and tbe colder weather of sub-tropical climates—mature provides tho bog with a thick layer of Cat under the skin, laid on during the summer and au­ tumn, and also with a species of woo! under the bristhw.

They eat ravenously, yet they lose flren. Exercise, or, in lieu of this, artificial cloth­ ing or fire neat and grooming, counteract this tendency to disability. Tho thinking man attends to the necessary wants of tho animal, and keeps the stables clean and the vonliir.tion good. The unthinking man has his animals suffering from scratches, grease, and <itln-r blood disordere. stiffened limbs, impaired hoofs, diseased frogs, and various other dis­ abilities that might bo obviated by a little care arising from thought One of tho most common errors on the farm is the neglect to furnish plenty of bedding night and day.

Tho satu­ rated litter contains tho really valuable portion of tbo excrement as manure—au important fact to recollect I* fact, if bedding ta scares— and it nover to or should not bo on tho farm— the wot litter may be dried aud again used. Hence it ta a sign of misdirectod thought to see animals, cither in the stable or out, on the bare floor or on the frozen ground. Horses, cattle, and sheep will endure severe cold if allowed exercise. This they will take in a yard or in a shed. The action of moving about oven slowly keeps the blood circulating at the surface, and tho animal remains warm unices exposed to the wind. In a still atmos­ phere the bodily boat is carried about in the hair. If blown away a chill ensues ' Henco animals in a grove or next a windbreak remain comfortable, except when expoeod to rain. The most uncomfortable amidmost danger­ ous state for tbe animal ta that of having tbe hair or wool saturated with ram. Drv snow does little injury if the animal be fully fed. Tho question of whether the beat and health ot the animal are best conserved by leas food and better clothing and grooming in the stable, or with more food to keep nn the animal beat outside, will depend u|H>n the price of food. Where corn is clieap, animals in good dry alic-ta, protected from the wind, or, better, in tho woods with dry sheds where they may re­ tire during storms, as a rule hold belter health and vigor than when confined iu stables with alack care.

THE DAIRY. It is a -good cow that will pay her cost in a year's sate of butter beside* furnishing milk for family use. But it is only such cows tliat a farmer'keening but one animal can afford to own. Usually poor families Keeping ouly ono oow have that of superior ment In large herds owned by slow farmers there will be a nvmbcr of culfs, which, like tho lean kind in 1’haroah’s dream, oat up tho profits from tho others. Mncb joking and some revere criticism has originated from the fact that from milk as usually delivered in cities cream will not rise as freely as from milk in the country. This is accounted for by the jolting which milk gets during ita drive of several miles to tho city over rough roads and city pavements. This breaks up tbe particles of milk, and what .cream rises during this process mixes with the milk aud does not again comb to the sur­ face. Country housekeepers have learned that milk yields more cream to bo strained as soon as possible after it oomes from the cow, and with no needless jolting. A daily total of about 3,<XJ0 cans of milk ia shipped to Chicago by the Q A N. W. IL IL, contributed by the following places: razurour diiancil FarmCaton Coyne Hantley. .jk >r*emaa Otlben's....

II frequently happens in warm weather that tho mother rees indications of sour stomach in her infant, showing that lhe milk becomes acid almost as s<M>n as it is swallowed.

Hapwrn, of Newton, spoke of tho im market pauu Very little damage is (tone to the fruit by any particular species of in­ sect Tho tree is very long-lived, haring boon introduced into this country over 20u years ago. Colonel John E. Russell, Secretary of tho Mato Board of Agriculture, said ho did not believe pear-raising to bo a pan of the buainem of the fanner, for he would always lose at It; it belongs to tho horti­ culturist and tho gardener. E. W. Wood, of Newton, disagreed with the idea of Colonel Russell that farmers do not find pears a profitable crop. It grows and bears quickly, tBu marketable varieties at least, and is annual, although for that reason it requires more cam The mistake made by the farmers is in trying to grow too many varictiee in tbo effort to introduce new kinds. To grow for profit to sell in the Boston mar­ ket the number could well be reduced to sis, and can not well bo raised above that figure; of course, when they are merely grown for family uso by amateurs, so to speak, any number of varieties may bo aud are set frat, so as to produce fruit from August to Marek For market tho Bartlett is one of the Istat, be­ cause it ripens early, and ta a constant ami regular bearer. Winter pears require much outlay and detail in their marketing, and are not worth the trouble to care for them. Those who go into the jiear culture frequently make an error in the troea that they set out, selecting about half standard and half dwarf; in a few years tho dwarfs disappear entirely, and the nurseryman is blamed fur furnishing bad trees, whereas tho fault lies with the grower in suiting hta trees to the nature of tho land. Hon. J. F. U Hyde, of Newton, agreed with tho last speaker in the cultivation of only a small number of varieties for market and tho desirability of a wide range of flavors for home use. He waa inclined to think\lhat, as a rule, farmers had bettor not go into the cul­ ture of posts for profit Ho found that tho fruit grows better near cities, aud particularly near the sea count and approval of the mind is noceaaary well Do whatever you like or do with whip and spur.

My temperament is artis- 1 tic.in the extreme. Nothing inspires iu me such profound reyeience ms a thoroughly perfect and artistic achieve-, meut of any kind, therefore nothing could induce me to fall asleep during the progress of the symphony which my friend nightly performs in his nasal organ. Symphony is a good word., II defines the situation exactly. My friend’« snore is not, like that of or­ dinary individuals, a series of aimless vibrations ortho uvula; it has an object in view. It is a symmetrical and wellregulated performance—curtain rises to glow music, and when the climax is reached, curtain falls in a blaze of greor light, with plenty of thunder and light ning. Each performance consists ol ono oct only, which invariably com­ mences about an hour after my friend has retired and continues till his alorn; "clock has awakened him to a remem branco of those minor duties which ths day demands of him. Tbe steamboat explosion above re­ ferred to is the circumstance which brought all these facta within my grasp. On account of this i>ainful incident, my friend, at the tender age of three anil a half years, became an orphan. Un­ able to penetrate the misty veil of the future, my father, who happened along nt the time of the explocqon, did not leave the l>oy to perish among the debris of the ill-faledboat and worsefated passengers, but fished him oul aud warmed him in the lx»som o! his family. Thus at a tenderage wc were thrown together, and despite tbo orphan's infirmity, which was not long in com’ng to tiro surface, we becama firm friends. Tho scenes ol our youth were the rolling prairies and v.rgin forests of Minne ota, and out companions, from necessity, chosen from the youth of the neighboring • friei-dly bands of Sioux and Wimioba goes. Ere we were out of onr teens the pipe of peace we hud smoked with these bands was broken into a thomund pieces and the fragments drenched with blood. Tbe blow came without a mo meat's warning, and the day before il fell will still 1 e vivid in our memories when recollections of other days bavu vanished. How distinctly 1 recall each incident of that memorable day as, now at midnight on the twenty-first day of March, h-sfi, I roeline on one elbow and gaze on tho face of my snor­ ing friend! The curtain has just risen and, more plainly than words, the pleased expression on my friend's face, and the peculiar gurgling cackle which apparently issues from the neighbor­ hood of his epiglottis, recall to my mind a wigwam ou tbe bank of a river. I am reclining in the shado while my friend amuses himself by taking va­ rans liberties with tho ombryo war­ riors in different stages of nakedness and dirtiness, who swarm about the wigwam. At one a. m. the pleased ex­ pression is still on my friend's face, but he has drawn out another stop and the windows begin to rattle cheer­ fully. As plainly as I can view the phe­ noms going on in tho direction of my friend's larynx, my mind’s eye sees him seize one of the dirtiest of tbe young savages, and holding him by the heels, souse him, kicking and whooping, in the river. At three a. m. 'the oc­ casional bits of Blaster which fall from tbo ceiling again freshen my memory, and I see distinctly tbo fast'and furious fun my friend is having with the little savages on the river bank. For an in­ stant something seems to stick in my friend’s throat. He is pulling out an­ other stop, 'J he pans and plates in the kitchen rattle in sympathy with tho re­ sult, and, the expression of my friend’s face becoming more serious, 1 notice an ill-favored squaw emerge from the wig­ wam brandishing a huge knife. An­ other stop and the loud pedal. Bless mo, how the ted groans and tbe foun­ dations of tho house tremble! Then scowling braves follow the squaw and draw their knives.

If any Lhore were who doubted that basel»li is the national game of Amenco, or that it had loot ita place in the favor of oar cUixens, such doubt muict have br.+n re­ moved on April T.'lh last, when-the open­ ing gtuDea of the National League season of 1886 were played, in the pretence of thousands of delighted and enthusiastic spectators. New York and Boston, at the polo grounds in die former city, had an attendance of over 19,000, and at the dose of the game, which was won by New York, the winning nine wore borne from the grounds upon the shoulders of admir­ ing friends. Similar crowds witne-sed the opening gamin in Washington and SL Louis. Itain prevented tbe first game betwen Chicago and Kansas City, in the latter place, but on tbe following day over 6,000 spectators witnessed a thirteeninning game, which was won by the cham­ pions by one run. Not a few prophesied that the admission of Washington and Kansas City into tbe league would lessen the interest of tbe general public, as the new members would not be strong enough to compete with lhe older dabs in the orSnization. The opening, games di«pclied is illusion; as in addition to Kansas City tieing the championK for twelve innings, Washington defeated Harry Wright's Strong team, winning two of the three firrt games. It is now conceded that greater un­ certainty exists as to who will fly tho championship - pennant of the .'enguc for 1886 than in any pre­ vious season. Tbe opening games of the American Association weie more largelv at­ tended than in nnv previous year, 'ana the same element of uccirlainty awaits the re­ suit ax to the championship. The games of the many State ana other leagues hare alao been largely attended; and it goes without saying that base bull has lost none of ita interest for the public, and tbnt more peo­ ple will witness lhe games of 1886 than in any previouR year. STA5DINO OF THE LEAGUE CLUBS. The second week iu their race for the league pennant ended with Saturday. Muy S, and found Chicago, New York, Detroit, ind Philadelphia leading the stnng, nnd refy well bunched, From present indicotfons tbe race of lost year between Chicago tnd New York is to be run again this year, rach 'club having entered the season under 1 fctreng and determined stale of pb»y. Both Detroit and Philadelphia are playing Excellent ball, and, barring accident to their men. there seems to be little doubt that both sill stand very clo«e to each other xnd very near the top at the finish. Boston has not played the game up to tbe present time that was expected of nor. and with her strong array of sixtoch players, includ­ ing Itodboorn and Buffington—without question two of the greatest twiriers in the league—it is something to lie won­ dered at. The following table will show the fint two weeks' work of the clubs: Club.— (^iIcmo. Detroit... Philadelphia..' St. Louis Boeu-n............. Wsahlngton... Kanaas* City...

Spalding 4 Bro.'a offer of $100 to lhe person making the correct guess, have shown considerable diversity of opinion as to tbo result. Out of 620 guesses, 436 place Chicago f *st, 153 place New York first, 21 place Detroit first, 8 place Philadelphia first, 2 place Boston first, and 1 asserts that fiL Louui will fly the' pennant for 1886. Ono of the singularities of the year is, that not a single member of the numerous Smith family appears on the roll of the clubs of the National League. GENERAL SPORTING NOTE . The Bostons lost three out of their find four games in the latt inning. The two longest base ball (bgows on record are: Ed Cntne, Boston Unions, 135 yards 1 foot A inch, and 13-i yards 5 inches!' Base-ball players will probably not join the strike for eight Itoun as the limit of n day's labor. 1 hey are perfectly con­ tented with two hours. The National League was organized ten years ago. andohe championship has been held by three clubs, as follows: Chicago, “76, ’80. *81, ’82, ’85; Iteston, '77, "78, '84; Providence. 79, '83. An agreement has practically been con­ cluded by which Teemer and Gandanr will row their contemplated race nt 1 oilman or Lake Calumet about the 1st of June. The work of Andrews, of the Philadelphias, has been terrific. He is the only league player who has butted safely in every one of the first aeven league games. He made eleven runs and thirteen him, with a total of seventeen in those contests; and bis batting average was .433, with a total of .566. An attempt was made last week to intro­ duce ball-playing indoon in Chicago. Tbe plan is quite elaborate and expensive—too much so, Ac fear, to prove remunerative to the projectors, two young men from Nash­ ville, Tenn- By means of a spocial wire leading into Central Muaic Hall and con­ necting with the League grounds in St. Louis, full particulars wore given of the game in progress between the Chicago and St. Louis clubs. Every play was illustrated upon a canvas screen twenty feet square containing a picture of a bell field. Tbe small audience present was pleased at the novelty of the thing, but there is no reason to anticipate that Lhe enterpriso can be made to succeed in Chicago. The North Springfield (Mo.)

The engineer, fireman, and a passenger were killed, aud all the other pasaengura aud train employes more or less bruised. Western railway managers seem to agree that the success of tho intontate com­ merce bill in its pre-sent shape would be a ca­ lamity, for the reason that tho interests of tho West have been sacrifi^d to tliOM of tho East. Later and more complete reports from the storm-swept region of Ohio show the loss of life and damage to property to have been greater than tho first accounts indicated. Tho tornado plowed its way in a southeast­ erly direction through one hundred miles of splendid farming country, leaving desola­ tion in its wake. Seneca, Wyandot, Han­ cock, Hardin, Auglaize, and Menx-r Counties mourn the loss of millions of dollars in property, and, above all, scores of lives. In Mercer County thirty dead bodies had been found, with many times that num­ ber injured. Throe persons were killed at Wabash City. In Dunkirk, Hardin County, five persons were killed and twenty badly injured; and in the vicinity of the town fire more persons were killed and a number injured, two probably fatally. In tlie Blanch­ ard Hirer valley tho storm made a clean sweep ton miles long and one-half mile wide, demol­ ishing 100 buildings. Wyandot and Hancock Counties adjoining oao another, were devas­ tated. Carey, a prosperous town m the fint-namod county, received a tremend­ ous shaking up Seventeen buildings were completely destroyed and six persons killed outright Bloomville, South Carey, Wharton, and many other villages suf­ fered in a like manner. Ten miles west of Tif­ fin, tho county scat of Tiffln County, a strip of country half a mile wide and several mile-* in length was totally stripped of buildings, as. in fact, of all else above the surface of the earth. At Kenton and Lancaster, and in heir neighborhood immense damage waa done. Fire persons were reported killed and thirteen wounded near Celina. At Findlay two persons were killed and a number injured, and at Forest die elemental created groat havoc. At tho latter place several persons were killed, two churches were destroyed, and so violent was tho storm that bods wore carried some distance with people in them. The damage, to say nothing of the loan of life, is placed at 9400,000. At Kenton a man ★** killed by lightning, a church waa demolished, and conaiderablo damage waa done to buildings and property. Around Lima there was great loss among tho five stock, and in the vicinity of Bucyrus over twenty buildings were wiped out by the rushing storm. In Indiana. Michigan, aud Illinois the winds were also disastrous, but very few cases of lose of life were re­ ported except two from being struck by light­ ning at Carlinville, IU. Captain Hatfield, with a troop of United States cavalry, surprised anti stampeded the camp of Geronimo, near Santa Cruz, but in paseing through a canon soon afterward ho suffered the lose of two men killed and three wounded. Major Rinz, with a largo Mexican force, has since joined in the pursuit Engineer Glenn, of the Sonora Land and Cattle Company, of Chicago, arrived at El Pano, Tex, and more than confirmed the re­ ported atrocities of Geronimo and his band of Apaches.

Ho was somewhat feminine in appearance, and tho huge bearded moun­ taineer who confronted him grinned with evident satisfaction at the thought of tbe easy manner in which he would cut th* young tenderfoot to pieces. Frisco Matt was a hard man, and had never yet been worsted in battle single-handed. Now he drew his huge'thumb along the keen edge of his bowie, and grinned as ho ■said: "Keen’s a briar—it'll make a slick job.” “Have done with this nonsense." cried th« girlish youth, who had also drawn a but you're a crower," mecred the giant tough. “You seem ter know tho handle I wear.

In a thunderous roar the monosyllable fell from the lips of Frisco Matt. Then he advanced a step aud brandished his knife -before tho face of his slender antagonist. This was a challenge to combat, one that the golden-haired y noth did not fail to accept.

A* forty-acre plot of land gave Mrs. Moo­ ney, and her seven fatherless children a meager livelihood.

In an­ other room’ slept her grown-up phildren, Lizzie and Patrick, while in the attic wa« her brother-in-law, Lawrence Mooney, an old num of 60 yean. About midnight Mrs. Mooney awoke and discovered her small bed-chamber filled with smoke.

In the meanwhile the fire, which bad originated from a defective flue in She kitchen, enveloped the little building ip flumes. Tho two grown chil­ dren and the aged man escaped with difticulty. When they reached th® open air tho heartrending cries of the four little ones in the room nbox® wero heard, and the old man rushed into tho burning dwelling to save them. The flames drove him back, but not until bo was frightfully burned. The house was rapidly consumed, and the cries of the four children became fainter and fainter, and, at last, as tho fire broke from every window, their cries ceased, and nil wm still. This morning all that remains of the four childrep constats of a tub full of bones and masses of burned flesh.

David Davis was born in Cecil County, on the eastern shore of Maryland, on of Welsh March 9. 1815. His familywas ______________ extraction, and had first settled in that region early in the last century. He was an only child. He received his educational training at Kenyon College, Ohio, where he graduated iu 1832. From college ho went directly to tho Hanard Law School, and as -on as be finihbed tbe course there removed to the West and settled in Bloom­ ington. Ill., where he was admitted to the bar in 1835, and commenced at once th® practice of his pro­ fession. He was soon brought into public life, and iui early as 1814 was elected a Representative in the State Legislature. In 1847 he was a delegate to the Constitu­ tional Convention, and n year later was elected a Judge of one of the Circuit Court* of Illinois. This office -lie held by repeated elections until he finally resigned it in 1862, when be was appointed by President Lin­ coln a Judge of the Supreme Court of the United States. He remained on the Su­ preme Bench until March 5, 1877, when he resigned to take his seat in tho United States Senate, to which office he had been elected by Ibe Democrats and Independents in the Illinois Legislature. During his service as United States Senator he maintained strict independence and allied himself with the organization of neither party in that legislative body. He wm elected presiding officer of the Senate soon after Vice President Arthur assnmed th® duties ot a higher office following th<* death of President Garfield, and continued to hold this position up to the expiration ef his term of office in 1883, when he was succeeded by Senator Cullom.

Suppose there should hupjien to be concealed abyut the per­ son of your article a deadly weapon, in the shape of a sugar-coated slam on some sensitive-minded but hard-mus­ cled individual in your neighborhood. Not being familiar down there, the ed­ itor couldn't catch on that it was loaded. Then in a few days the sensitive fellow would come in, run the editor behind tho press, and want to know ‘who wrote that blasted thing from Hopkins Grove.’ Tho editor would have to put his finger in the corner of his mouth, look foolish and say he didn’t know. It would be a painful scene, and when ■ the editor came to he would swear he’d never print another coiumnnication the author of which was too bashful to share tho responsibility by informing the editor of hia or her name. “Second. Don’t mw ten-oent adjec­ tives, at least any more than you can help. Dost you see, if you were de­ scribing a dogfight and uio such words as ‘splendid,’ ‘glorious,’ ‘perfectly en­ chanting,’and ‘magnificent,’and’then a circus should come to town and you wanted to write that up too, why, yon i wouldn't have anything left to distin­ guish between the dog fight and the cjreus. No doubt the Chinese lanterns in the trees about the school house gave a very pretty effect, and the boys with the canary whistles added to it; but honestly now, you don’t believe they re­ sembled ‘Fairyland? The lanterns couldn't have been any more ‘truly magnificent’ than any others of the same kind, could they? “Third. You started out to write up the exhibition, and you went off into ‘rhapsodies over the crowd, thn 'coaches' that brought them, the trees and the lanterns, and you never even Sit inside of the school house at alh ow about the exhibitipa ? Was that good? We beard frorti other sources that it was exceptionally so. Now, don’t be discouraged, but try again. Stick to your text Try to get as much in little, consistently, as poaaible.

The mulish opposition in Congress to the appointment of an intcruatiooal commfasibn to settle the controversy, as was recommended.in the President’s message, is responsible for whatever friction is now manifested in the inter­ course of the two countries. If we are not prepared to go to war with Great Britian and to attempt to dictate our terms as to the management of the CanKilian fisheries the commission plan is ' the only sensible way out of the diffi­ culty.

Thy New England opposition arises froufthe fact that the fishermen and the demagogue poli­ ticians who lead them do not want re­ ciprocity, and would prefer war. They are anxious to enjoy cyerv privilege in Canada which reciprocity provides, bnt they do not wish to extend the same courtesy to the Canadians in this country. This selfishness has been at tbe bottom of all the trouble, and it finds an offset now in rhe impudent and aggressive policy which the Do­ minion is pursuing..

Jenkins junior quarreled with Jenk­ ins senior iu a crowded dining room in Frankfort, Ky.. and tbe father threw a glass at bis son’s liend. Whereupon the son promptly drew his pistol and fired at his sire. No harm was done but the father seemed to lie rather proud of hiaaon. "He did right,” said he to a -friend. "He’s a Jenkins you know— spirited, high strung. That's the way he was raised. If a man throws a glasa at ray head, I suppose fd have to kill him. Yes, the boy did right.” We like the way an anarchist was treated lately at Logansport, Indiana, his name was Lew Yorke. He was in­ citing ignorant men to arm and kill those who were possessed of property and who sustained tbe law, when 'a nu miter of American workingmen seized him. ran him into a mill-pond, soused him under a few times, and told him that as he advised going outside of law to serve his purpose, they would meet him on his own ground and wabh him down. The scared coward phaded and begged, and threatened to take the law on them, but they soused him in again, and told him if they caught him again they would kill. He left.

Uhcre being no current, ho judged tho body of water n lake which wus sur­ rounded and shadowed by the everlasting trills. Mountains reared their crests high above the glimmering water, aud dark crags jotted out along the shore that rendered tlic aapcct forbidding in the.extreme. Four pen«ouH were in tho skiff beside* Primrose fete, nud regarding them by the light of the moon the prisoner judged them to be A dead silence hung over the face of nntae, broken at Inst by the di*tanLcrnck of n gun. the report echoing aud re-echoing over tbe lake like a solumn dirge. • “Where the deuce aro you taking me?" demanded Primrose Pete at length. No answer wm vouchsafed, nnd to nil the questions put by the sport not on an­ swer could ho get. At length he gave up the task and waited as patiently as be could the developmeutH. . In a Little time the skiff camo to a halt in front of a perpendicular wall ot granite that seemed to extend upward to the very hearccn. Two heavy pieces of iron at­ tached to ropes were cast into the water, thus anchoring the boat securely. •Can you dive?” , A hand shook the shoulder of the goldenhaired sport, and a dark face peered into hi*. •I ran if it is neccwary," answered Prim­ rose Pete. “1 suppose yon mean to sink me to the bottom of the lake as food for fishes," “No. We will not hnrmwon if you obey.” At this moment a second Indian came to -the awistauco of the spokesman, and to­ gether they raised Primrose Pete to astandposture. •Now." said the first Indian, m most ex­ cellent English, “you must shut your mouth amd make ready to go down with us to the Mermaid's cave. Are you ready?" Primrose Pete was too mysnfled to utter a word. He shut his mouth mechanically, feowever. The next instant he found him•elf going down head foremost into the black waters of the lake. With hi* bonds secured at hit back be could do nothing, only incline his body at an angle, and perBtiit hi* captors to send him to hi* doom. To hi* surprise, however, a hsud still . clutched cither shoulder and. he realized Dial on Indian was swimming on either side ■of him. . Down, down, a long distance, then the trio began to rise, and in * Ijttle time their iwaiiseome above the surface once more. Primrose Pete caught his breath with a ga«p. When the water had dripped from bi* ryes, he gazed about hint in n*tonishment. A bright light gleamed in his fare; not the light of the moon, but the red glow ■ of a torch. Ho found himsdf standing ou solid rock smixt tfeep in water.

Primroco Pete's captors obeyed the order and led their prisoner up the 'natural step* to tho floor above. Following the torehbearer they Boon reached a large subterra* ne*n chamber, whose ceiling was many . foot above, and glowed like molten silver uroter the glare of a dozen lamps that were faxtened to the aides of the room. The apartment was a laree one, a most pleasant room indeed, and the air -va* wsnm and genial to the dripping prisoner. Primrose Pete stood gazing at the central figure of the apartment iu wonder. Myrtle, tbe mud maiu of the mines, confronted -him, not wet like himself, but in a robe of pure white studded with glittering gem«. A crown rested upon her head, from which great «t*rs glittered and gleamed like point* •of living flame. "liemove the sport to the clothing-room," commanded the pnne-ss; “I will interview him later, when he is gnrlied in dry gar­ ments, and his arms arc free." Primrose Pete was led away, past the princess of the Mermaid'* cave, into nu apartn.-v.ut formed by drawing a curtain releMod from bonds and |>ennitteJ to chusa from a dozan suits of clothes that hung from tho wall.

At this moment, however, Mr. Skinner darted from the side of Nettie with a howl of'pain.

"Back, villain!” Mr. Skinner recoiled. At the end of Nettie's extended arm gleamed a revolver. “The iite*!”guqw*d ho. “A girl using a re­ volver! Put up the weapon, and let us have peace." “Leave, or I shoot!" threatened the girl, severely. With a groan, Jonathan Skinner sank into n choir and covered hi* face with his hand*. Nettie approached and stood over him. She had lowered her weapon now. deem­ ing him utterly hormles* from fright. A pair of keen eyes gleamed between the long slim fingers. “Go now—at once,” she commanded, Inving a hand on the man's shoulder. . “Oh yvs, I will go." The lank form came upright suddenly; the next instant a long arm encircled the girl's waist,, nnd she felt her revolver wrenched from her hand. “No use resisting!” hissed the lank vil­ lain. “I cannot disappoint myself; my dream of diamond treasure shall come true." “Release me.” “No, pretty witch; you go with Jonathan Skinner to help him win Montan* dia­ monds." Then the man moved toward the open door with the struggling girl in his arms. When the widow would interfere he threat­ ened her with his revolver. Nettie uttered n loud scream. Before her captor gained the door a man leaped across the threshold with a revolver clutched in each hand. Rocket Bar was the name given to a collec­ cabins, tents, and rude shanties oc­ cupying a space under the shadow of n huge mountain. It was a level spot, and from the south end of the narrow plateau a wagon-road wound through the hflla to the broad undulating plains ten miles distant, where was the best cattle range in the Northwest. Cattlemen sometimes visited Rocket Bar ■for refreshments of a liquid nature. The Bar had been started as a mining village, but bright nuggets were somewhat scarce in this part of Montana, and mining was deetinea soon to become one of tha indus­ tries of the past. At the time of writing, however. Rocket Bor was in the height of its prosperity. One of the founders of the settlement -was Jonas Harver, a small cattle-owner aad mine speculator. He made some mon­ ey the fiiBt year, but mostly in cattle. He was the owner of a large herd when he camo to an untimely death, leaving wife and daughter almost homeless in the wilds of Montana. Cattle thieve* had become troublesome, and Jonas Harver succeeded in arresting several, and sent them to the penitentiary, which roused many of the convicted men's friends to bitter enmity toward Harver. Bold as a lion, the old plainsman rode the mountain trails, carrying his life in his hand. Several times he had been assaulted, but always came off the victor, until one fatal day in early summer when a bullet from on unseen foe laid the brave old cat­ tie-owner low, and some miners brought the body to Rocket Bar from 'die spot where they had found it across the mountain trail.

I will furnish you on escort sufficient to protect you on the journey. . If you refuse, of course I shall not be to blame for wbnt may hereafter happen." Revolver Guy seemed honest. There could be no doubt of the danger threatening the widow and her daughter, so, after a little deliberation, tho women con­ cluded to accept the dark mountaineer's of­ fer. On the railroad tliey would feel safer, and there they would doubtless find a lawyer whom they could consult regarding the vast interests left by the murdered cattie-owncr. Revolver Guy took his leave, but ia nn hour returned with a uinlo team hitched to a low-wheeled cart. A bearded man sot on tho sent and wielded the whip with the dex­ terity of an expert. “Is thi* the rig that is to toko us over the road to the Northern Pacific?" queried Net­ tie, with a smile nt sight of tho huge mountain cart. "It's not handsome, but serviceable," an­ swered Revolver Guy,'laughing. Soon the few necessary articles needed on the journey were duratied into tho cart, nnd then Revolver Guy assisted tho fetnnles to a seat in tha renr'of the broad-shouldered driver. Tho sun was shining, and all na­ ture was in itspleiinnnt mood, which seemed to bode good for th“ little expedition that was leaving Rocket Bar forever. Revolver Guy sprang in and seated him- • self beside Nettie, the driver cracked bis whip with a "g'long.” and the curt rolled nway toward the wagon trail that ted south from Rocket Bur. “Ans you to accompany u*?’ questioned Nettie, as Revolver Guy settled himself at her side. “But a short distance.

In the course of a fortnight you may look for me at the station." :■ Soon they gained' the wagon trail and Rocket Bar was left behind, the mountains abntting in like a wall in the rear. “Yon will send a guard?" The widow asked the question with a tone of uneasiness in her voice. “Certainly. I shall send two of my friends, stalwart fellows, to guide and guard the precious treasure' this cart contains,” aud tiie black evil aye* of the dark moun­ taineer riveted their gaze upon the face of the fair girl al his side iu an admiring way. Nettie drew away from the touch of his hand. He noticed it and frowned. “1 must leave you here." Revolver- Guy sprang out when the cart came to a Kall a mile out of Rocket Bar. “Good-by, until we meet ngaiu, and may­ good luck go with you.” He shoo,; the hand of each, then turned away.

A mon always crosses his legs when lie reads a newspaper, but is more apt to lie down when ho reads a book. He reads tho paper, of course, to inform himself, but at the same time the peru­ sal of its contents is recreation for bim, and his body seeks its position of re­ laxation. .

In an interesting paper on local weather-lore, read by Mr. Amos W. Butler before the American Association for the Advancement of Science, during the Philadelphia meeting of 1K84, the author has another version of this saying: "When tho hogs gather up sticks and carry them about, expect cold weather." This is wholly at variance with what I have observed, for my memoranda record shows this habit almost wholly during the hot weather, and this must necessarily bo tb» rule with New Jersey swine, or the local weather-prophet* would not have coined the ver.w as I have given it.' As to the oilier oouplot, it is about os near meaningless as any saying can well be. Some rustic rhymer, a century ago, may have added it as a piece ot fun, but it has stuck most persistently.

The beam and shovels are easily controlled by a heavy spring, which gets its elasticity from com­ pression, which is dui able, and not from pulling apart, as all other goods of like appearance do, thereby destroying the strength of the spring.

He turns it about until it becomes pear-shaped, and then bands it to tho blower, who blows gently into it, at the same time constantly turning it until it becomes the shape of a huge bottle. It takes a very strong man to do this, sinde for a plate of this t-.izi tho molten material will weigh thirty pounds. “After it has been blown into tho right shape,” tho speaker went ou, “tho end of the pipe is closed np, and tho air, expanded by the heat, breaks a small hole in the end of the bottle, which tho blower enlarges by twisting his tube around and puffing his breath into it until at length the bottle boi omes a cylinder. A string of red-hot glass drawn over the upper part of the cylinder breaks it ofi' evenly and it is then cracked oi»en lengthwise by a redhot iron.

I see that Mr. Jeff- reon Davis, who has recently entered the lecture Held, says dial there could have been no nobler cause for which to die, no op­ portunity more glonous fora proud and honorable death, than that afforded the confederateaoldiera who espoused the cauae of the sonth 90 rears ago. Look • ing At it in thia way, I ask. in all cahdor, why did not Air. Jeff Davis im­ prove the opportunity! Feeling that way about it, why did he not remove his palonaise aud die like a Qian! Why did he let the chance go by, in order that he might enter tbe lecture Held and crowd out better men, and then die of old age. when he could Imre hungup hia hoopskirt on a tree and died in a way that would have endeared bitn to many a southern heart! I agree with the lamented A. Ward that "it would have been (25 in Mr. Davis’ pocket if he had never been born.r but after he waa boru it was too late tn consider his rash act, he should have died as young na possible. With characteristic tardiness, however, he allowed himself to grow up, and then with the full knowledge, as he now ad­ mits. that the war of the Rebellion af­ forded a beautiful opportunity for n man who yearned to die in a neat and attractive way, he frittered away that golden moment aod continued to des­ troy his high-priced groceries for the department South. There is certainly *'a tide in the af­ fairs mau which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune," and Mr. Davis surely missed it when he neglected to make a funeral tableau of Jjimself. 80 800N F0M0TTEI.

Altogether, Steamville, for the time-being, ill deserved its name. It is not necessary tar us to inquire into Whether real or imaginary, a number of the ■Grand Transcontinental employes declared they had grievances which must be ad­ justed; bo the District Assembly K. of L. ordered out all the freight trainmen of the •Grand Transcontinental Railway, together with several of its tributary lines. This, with all subsequent orders emanating from the District Assembly, was signed “John Bradford, Master Workman.” General Superintendent Mansel sat alowa in his private office, at Steamville head­ quarters. fl is duties had altered somewhat in the last few days. Instead of devoting his energies to bringing about the safe and apecdy run nine of trams, he dow divided hrs time between telegraphing the President of the road, in Chicago, and interviewing detectives. Ho was worried a good deal. The fact was, he wished to do the right thing by the men, and nt the same time.ho wm not the man, at'thia critical time.'to fail the directors, who trusted him im­ plicitly. One man—n mon ho hnd never seen— Superintendent Mansel cordiallv disliked, ana that wm none other than John Head­ fiord, the Master Workman whose name ap­ peared at the foot of all the District Aseembly documents. It is hardly surprising, perhaps, that tho Superintendent (who wm a good-hearted, whole-souled man in the main) bore no great lovo to uny labor or­ ganizations. The Knights of Lalor, Dis­ trict Assembly 2<>02, Vith its Master Work man. he absolutely disliked. “Lot of damned scoundrelly" fire-bugs and irainwreckora, those labor agitators uryi wire pullers,” he would say; “trying to make questionable poiutn tar the workingmen, and a few dollani for' themselves at the same time.

Therefore the officers always felt better as -each succeeding train carrying passengers departed in safety from Steamville, where tbc strikers were more numerous than at any other point along the line. The Superintendent had jast lighted his dgar when a man entered tho office, closing •nd looking the door behind him. He was • detective in the employ of the railroad “dumber 14 has just left, Mr. Hansel. Where is her first stop?” “She will stop fur water at Prairie Flower, Afbr-fivo miles west of here.

I'm afraid it’s too liate to prevent a fearful accident.” "But there is a telegraph statiou two miles tiiis aide of the creek," said the Superintendent; “I will send a message and have the operator flag Number 14. There is plenty erf time; she is not due to pass that telegraph’ cabin until 3:25. It is now “It is too late, Mr. Mansel," said the de­ fective. “The arrangement «as made to eat the wires immediately after the de•artnre of Number 14 from Steamville.

It wu tho only loco­ motive which had steam up, and tho fire- lowed the passenger train to proceed unmo­ lested, they would jiermit no “extras” to move. “Great heavens, boys!" shouted the fran­ tic Superintendent, “we must save life.

As he did so every other man on tbo engine climbed down, not ono of tho crowd inter­ fering.

About sundown Number 14 came buck into Steamville. She was uninjured. All the passengers and all the trainmen were safe. But upon the floor of tho bag­ gage-car, covered with a couple of over­ coats, lay the dead Ixxly of the man who had saved tho train. He had got away from Steamville all right, but in passing through tho west yard a dozen different pistols had /been emptied info the *L- ’------- lotivc, forced to Blow i y the many switcheii in^... time to stop andXxplain to the men. Forty miles must be made in m many minute*, so the engineer, bleeding from half a score of bullet holes, kept ahead, and wm soon bounding along tho track at a terrible speed. Less than a mile from tho rocking trestle he signaled Number 14 and brought the train to a standstill. He just had blood and breath enough left to tali tho conductor about the scheme for wreaking the train, and with a parting injunction not to blame the Knigh's of Labor for such . mean and dastardly work, the man died. General Superintendent Mansel was tho first to view the body of the dead man after it wu lifted tenderly from the baggage­ car. And this was his first meeting with John Headford, Master Workman (for it was none other). Ho had said he would tell this John Headford what he thought ofhim tho first time he saw him. But it was useless telling him anything now. If hs could hear, tho Superintendent would say (for Tom Mansel does not think it unmanly to acknowledge a mistake)—"Will you shake hands? Ydu aro a bravo man." ' John Hendford's henfle death hod a good deal to do with bringing about a reconcilia­ tion between tho railway company and its employes.

Tho ladies and gentlemen have jmtiently submitted, during the last month, to multitudinous rehearsals, eagerly availed themselves of all new “business" the efficient stage manager has suggested, and to-night it. as well m them­ selves, is to be put to the test, and they can not tell bow they will do until it is done. The oldest veteran loses confidence. In the dressing-rooms above the stage, on a level with the flies, all is bustie.

Il is received with dnatain, and he is per­ emptorily ordered out, vowing ho will never give them another point.

On the march of Johnston's army from Jackson to Meridian. Mus., in we paired a small field of sugar enne, aud the soldiers were depredating on it at a fear­ ful extent. General Loring ordered Colonel Farrell, of the Fifteenth Mississippi In­ fantry. to place a guard of a sergeant and six men to guard it. It fell to the lot of Sergeant Finny Morris (Company H) to do the duty. Very soon General Loring came along and found the gnllaat sergeant and bis guard cutting and handing over sugar cane to the boys ns fast as thev could. Th- General rode up to the fence and said: “ Sergeant. were you not ordered here to keep men out of that cane and protect it?" “Yes, General, I was, and thought this was the only way lo keep them out." The General smiled and rode on.

Colonel (now Senator) Van Wyek, of Nebraska, came along, and the Captain ex­ tended him a cordial invitation to join the crowd at supper. The Colonel ’smelled a —pig—and “By G— d, I will,* said he. The Colonel and Captutu had.bcen silting on a log, talking and waiting for supper, but a few minutes before the savory smell had penetrated to General McClellan's head­ quarters, and the little Frenchman who had made himself so nimble on the General’s staff came out charged with the duty of investigating.

The gallant Col. Ellsworth is said to have been forewarned of his fate aud to have penned a solemn farewell to his parents the night before his tragic death. Col.

In 1836 he was, at the u£e of 26, a soldier tn tho Creek war. Nine years later lie entered Con­ gress as a Whig, but when Mr. Clay, the lather of that party, passed through tbe Senate his compromise nwaaurea, admitting California as a free State, he, with Stephens, Benjamin, Wise, and others, joined tlie Democratic party. Two years later ho became a member of tlie United States Senate, and continued one of tbe most dis­ tinguished statesmen of that body until his withdrawal therefrom upon the passage of tbe ordinance of secession by the State of Georgia, in 1861, . Toombs was a less skillful debater than Benjamin, leas able as a dialecti­ cian than Davis, less potential as an orator than Soule, fes* profound as a political philosopher than Stephens, but iu the elements of strength, vigor, mnscnlinity, manhood, virility, he waa, with the possible exception ot Thnddeus Stevens, the foremost man that over Mrt in the’Congress of the United State* after Henry Clay ceased to be. He was utterly without concealments, wearing his heart upon his sleeve, ^nd living in open day. This was the most prominent feature of his character. He was a tribune among Senators and a patriaian among plebes, a Coriolanus everywhere—“Ajax, tho great, himself a boat” The speeches he delivered in Con­ gress would fill a large volume. He was, perhaps, the readiest man in tho Senate. Ho rarely appealed to pre­ cedent He had but one test, and that not “Is it expedient?** but "Is it right?" He was the boldest opponent of Douglas from 1857 until his retirement from Congress. He mode a dozen speeches which it puzzled the Little Giant to answer; and, to show the candor of the man, when asked by a friend in* 1859 if Douglas was really a great man, be responded, in his hearty way, “By G------- d, sir, there has liecn but one greater, and he tho Apostle Paul." There is little doubt that Douglas was the greatest debater either house ever contained. He wa* a born polem­ ic, and if he had possessed a tithe of the acquired knowledge Charles Sum­ ner or Caleb Cushing or Mr. Lamar possessed, he would havo been a giant indeed. One branch of the knowledge he did possess in it* ent rety. He knew American history and knew it more thoroughly than John Quincy Adams or John Randolph. In that realm he was supreme. Not Amos Kendall or Francis P. Blair, not Horace Greeley or Samuel J. Tilden, vai so familiar with the writings of American states­ men, tho speeches in Congress, and the history of American politics as Stephen A. Douglas. Before he was 15 years of age he was a politician, and before he was 20 years of age -he was a magnifi­ cent stump orator. He was a poli­ tician from crown to scle; it was his vocation. In the second speech Douglas mode iq the House of Representatives, when bo was scarce 30 years of age, he at­ tacked John Quincy Adams. Theiyjestion was purely an historical one, re­ lating to the Texas boundary and the Louisiana purchase. Not since George Evans had left tho Hous * and Tom Marshall had been demolished by the “old man eloquent" had any member of that body had the temerity to en­ gage in a discussion <J1 that nature with the old man. Douglas had not been a member three months, but he demol­ ished Adams completely and over­ whelmingly. It was the principal speech made at that session—1844—and fro^n that day he was a marked man, and was the acknowledged leader ot his party until seventeen years later he died’ less than 50 years of age. The compromise measures of 1850 were the work of Douglas. Ho was their real author, and Mr. Clay said as much publicly and privately. It wm Douglas that defended those measures in tho Senate ag&irut all opposors, and bo it was Who convinced Congres* of their wisdom and the country of their expediency. Though mobbed when ho reached Chicago by the ultra-abolition­ ists, he soon ginned the applause of tbe mob when he began to address them on the subject. Four years later he was ogam mobbed, but the leaders of the mob prevented him speaking, or he would have made tbe rank and file applaud the Kansas-Nebraska bill as he bad made them give their adherence to tho compromise measures. In 1859 Douglas had but one follower in the Senate—Pugh, of Ohio. Four years before he had combated and over­ thrown Seward, Chase, Sumner, Fes­ senden, and Wade; now he was to meet the Southern Senatcra. Of all these, Benjamin and Green, of Missouri, most worried him. Davis and Toombs con­ fronted him day by day, goading him and prodding 'him and reproaching hiffi. But he never failed, and re­ turned blow for blow. And while his victory over them wo* les* complete than the one over the Republican Sen­ ator* four years before, it was never­ theless a victory. The American youth who expects to represent a constituency in Congress should procure the speeches mado on the debate* of the Kansas and Nebraska bill and the Lecompton con­ stitution, and carefully study them. They are unsurpassed in polemic con­ troversy by Burke on “Warren Hast­ ing* and the Nabob’s Debt*," or Pitt and Fox on the “Disruption of the Treaty of Amiens."

Two A sensational shooting affray occurred in a crowded section of Kansas City>the other afternoon, iu which Dr. Morrison Munford, proprietor of the Kam.iis City Timor, and two other persons were shot by W. A. Car­ lisle, an attqrtbey. Dr. Munford entered a street-car and was about to take a seat near the door when Carliata came to the plat­ form of the car. drew a revolver, and sjtoke to • Munford, saying: “You have traduced my wife, and I will kill you." At (he same time Carlisle began firing nt Mun­ ford, who was but three feet dintent. A tall struck Munford in the side, glancing from a rib uud lodged under the ricin just below the breast bone. Carlisle quickly fired again, the tall cutting hi« intended victim’* coni and striking Miss Jennie Streeter, n girl sixteen yean* of age, who occupied tho next seat in the car. Dr. Munford then stooped forward, trying meanwhile to draw a revolver. Carlisle' stepped into the street on the Southside aud begun firing through the window, one ball striking n passenger named John Hole in tbe face. After firing five sh'4s in rapid meet sriem. Carlialo started to run around tbe forward ear, attached to the other one. and was seized by two officer* as Munford stepped down to the pavement on thv north side with hi* revolver drawn and leveled. Tho latter, who, thought he hnd been fatally wounded, bad tned to shoot, but had not been able to free bis weapon’, the trigger of which wa* caught in a scabbard which incased it Munford called to the officer* to let Carlislo gu and give him r. chance, but bystanders quickly interfered and persuaded'the Doctor to give up his weapon. He was taken to Dr. Jackson's office in the Times building ad­ joining, where the bullet in hi* breast vnss extracted and his wound dressed, after ' which be was removed to hi* home. Carlisle meanwhile was conducted down Main street, followed bv an angry crowd. His action in shooting indiscriminately into the throng aroused tbe greatest Indignation, and thr< ids of violence wefe made on all side*. At Seventh street the prisoner wo* nut into a carriage and hurried to the po­ lice station. Several stoues were thrown after ,iL Miss Streeter walked to the pavement and sat down. A carriage was called, nnd *he was taken home, where her wound wm dressed. The bullet was found to have passed through the fleshy portion of the left bread, and. though painful, is not dan­ gerous. The bullet that struck Hale in the face lodged in his bend, anil ha* not yet been found. His life will not be in danger unless erysipelas set* in, which is feared somewhat. Dr. Munford, who remained cool and collected throughout the general excitement over the affair, is resting well, and will soon recover. The trouble originated in the publication by the Time* of charges against Carlisle’s professional and moral character. Dr. Munford is a native of Kentucky.nnd is widely known through his position as proprietor of the Time.tr. Mr. Carlisle is a Virginian by birth. He is a relative of John Carlisle, now dead, who was once United States Senator from West Virginia. A KING DROWNS HIMSELF. Ludwig, the Insane Baler of Bavaria. Put* an Eid to His Miser­ able LifeThe Heroic Efforts of His Physician to Thwart the Monarch's Purpose. Ludwig II., who was recently deposed from the Bavarian throne, has committed auiqide. He had gone out for n promenade in the park of the Berg Castle, accompanied by Dr. Gudden, hi« physician, says a cable fiispateh from Munich. The king suddenly threw himself into the Starnberg Lake and was drowned. Tbe physician jumped into the water to rescue the King and was slsr drowned. The medical commission which examined the latexKing retwrt that be had ordered the members of the ministerial deputation headed by Count Holstein, who called upon him to jnocure his consent to a regenav, to be flogg.-d until they bled ana then have their eyes extracted. Before his death the belief wa* spreading among the common people of Bararin that the King's deposition wa» illegal. Tbe people did not believe be wa* insane. Precautions tad been taken to prevent the populace from rising to re­ store the King. The full story of Ludwig's recent eccen­ tricities would be generally regarded as incredible. He bad a mania for avoiding the daylight and fur turning dnv into night. He often summoned great musicians to the palace at late hour* by port-horses m grat­ ify tbe royal wish to hear a single sir. He frequently hud statesmen arotised in the small hours and sent to him to assist him to play a billiard game. He would drive at night in a chariot or on horseback with liv­ ing aj»eed. accompanied by mounted torch­ bearers, for up into the mountains, in imi­ tation of B.urger's “Leonore" and of Goetbe’fl “Erl Keonig." Once, while engaged in one of these wild night mountain chase*, he fell, with his horse, down u deep chasm. He was badly hurt, and his injury aggravated his mental ailment, but his physicians were obliged to approach him disguised os lackeys or as soldier*. Dr. Mueller and Hubert, the King'* steward, had the bodies of Ludwig and Dr. Gudden conveyed to tbe Berg Castle nnd placed on beds. Although there was neither any perceptible respiration nrr i>uta- move­ meat in either body, Dr. Mueller nnd his assistants of the antonlsnc? corps attempt­ ed to restore nnimation in both, aud only ceased their efform at resuscitation at mid­ night, when life was pronounced extinct in' both cases. King Ludwig's suicide cast a deep gloom over Munich. The people were deeply at­ tached to the King, and evidences are everywhere manifest of the jxipular borrow, caused by his tragic death. James H. Warder, of Nokesville, Prince William County, Va., says: “My wife"* old turkey hea was sitting beside lhe garden fence on thirteen eggs. About a week ugo a large black snake came along and ate the turkey, curled himself on the eggs, and stayed there until they hatched out, and then ate the whole brood at once."

III* exceedingly warm in Waahingtou, but the beat that will discourage Mrs. Cleveland’s reign will probably not be like that of Mrs. Hayes. She sipped campagne at the wedding supper, aud thua show* that she is not a teetotaler. - , ' The President’s wife will now begin to make acquaintance with tlie cup­ board* of the White House. How the poor dear old hiatoric cobwebs will tremble!' A saloon can no more be run without using up boys, than a flour mill with­ out wheat, or a saw mill without logs. The only question ia, whose boys—your boys or mine—our boys or our neigh­ bor*! ‘ After all tlrathaa been said and writ­ ten about wiving the labor problem, perhaps the very best way will be for each man to roll up his sleeves and solve it individually for himself in his own way. *. All of the two-term Democratic Pres­ idents have been married men. A bach­ elor ia a single-barreled piece, only in­ tended for firing one- time. By doub­ ling himself up Mr. Cleveland has doubled his chances for renomination and re-election. Word has been passed along the line that Terrence V. Powderly must tie knocked out of position as head of tlie Knights ot Labor, at the October Con­ yention in Richmond. It is quite al­ ways thus, as tbe beat men are crucified as it were. But he will not be knocked out. of tw^tongs must be done—run the town forwliit ia worth, get up steam, and keep it up, or quit tbe whole thing, slide out and let nature take its course. Do you want trade! Bid for it. Do you want bosiness to oome to your town! Encourage those who do come. Do you want a prosperous town, where people can come who are disposed to make homes! Then do away with all contention and bickering, bui7 from sigilt all jealousies, all spite work; work do mote for a few individuals, but all work together in a common prosperity and mutual benefit. Wake up, rub your eyes, roll up your sleeves and go to work. Don't work with fear and trembling, but take it for granted that blood will tell. Leave results to themselves; borrow no trouble, but all unite to make lb the biggest kind of a city. Michigan, fifty years ago, when it was admitted into the Union, had a population of qply 900,000; it then stood twentv-third ijrrank of states,** to the number of its people,’jiow ft-fiolds the ninth place in ibe great sisterhood—its population having increased ten-fold. Then, ite riches of forest aud mine and field were either altogether un­ known or but very inadequately esti­ mated. Now its abundance has been fairly measured and its great and varied elements of wealth are no longer sub­ jects of conjecture. And in tlie matter of schools, colleges and churches, and of all public institutions designed to meet the requirements of a high and advancing civilixation, Michigan is not surpassed, if equaled, by any state in the interior, and in many respects has led-tbe way in methods and reforms which have been recognized ana adopt­ ed by those of her sister common­ wealth much older than herself. The people of this state may justly be proud of their progress and of tho enviable position which they now occupy.

The Deer Pajk people are blaming Col. Lamont for the early departure of the President nnd his bride. They should not blame the Colonel, for he is not tin* cause. Stephen B.

BY CAPTAIN JAYE8 MONTFORD. “In tho^spring of 1862 I was wounded in the arm, and obtained leave to return home for a few weeks. “Tho wound was (flight, and a month had scarcely passed ere I was strong ns over, and began to feel that uneasy sensation, I -can scarcely call it longing,'which cornea •upon a soldier when far away from the -field where victories and defeats arc falling ■to his comrad-s whom he knows so well. “Three weeks before my leave of absence expired I left home again and started for •the field. “When I arrived within thirty or forty tniles of the point where the command was station fid, I found that the track had been torn up, and that wo must remain at tho ■mall station until the rails could again be laid. “While loiterin) about the little town a ■chance occurred for the purchase of a horse at a very moderate price, considering the times. “I struck a bargain with the owner, nnd resolved to ride through the country to tho point where the troops were stationed. “This would be more pleasant, as I knew a young man, who was about to enlist, in­ tending to go by the train, which was now* at a standstill. * “He was a nntite of Phoneton, the town where we were detained, nnd was perfectly seqn tinted with the country surrounding it. “Immediately after purchasing the horse I hunted him up, and it waa soon agreed that we should ride across tho country. “Bright and early the following morning he rode up to the little inn where I was ■■topping, and in less than thirty minutes we were cantering through tho village street in the direction of the camp. ' “It was a pleasant day; a storm waa iaipendinc, but not likely to fall until night. “I never paused a finer time on homeback: but nothing interesting occurred, and I will hasten on to the story. “As night approached, nnd my compan­ ion offered no information in regard to our distance from the camp. I began to consid­ er that, us we had ridden at a good rate all day. we must be near our destination. “ ‘Well. Frank.’ said I, ‘we are nearly at the eud of this jounjey, are we not?* “ ‘I guess we are. Colonel,' be replied. “ ‘Then you are not certain about it?* “ * 1 thought I was,' he replied, in a pnzaled Way, and looking about for land­ marks. “ ‘ Dp you recollect where you are? I inquired, after a short silence. 6 He admitted that he did not, and, al­ though he declared * be didn't know how he could have made such a mistake,' I realized that we must bo seeking a lodging for the night without delay, for the'storm had gathered violence, nnd would soon dis­ charge itself. “‘We must make inquiries at the first -house,’ I said, and urging the tired horses ■onward, we kept a sharp lookout for some habitation. “But this was not met with when derired. We had ravaged tho country, and a great many of the houses we passed were unten­ anted nnd dismantled. “As it grew darker and darker, the pros­ pect of remaining outside at the mercy of the storm began to cause some discomfort. " ‘There's a house'.’ shouted Frank nt last, and, following his eyes, I saw a light < short distance back from the road. “It was a small building, unpaiuted, and did not promise much in the way of enter­ tainment. Nevertheless. any kind of shel­ ter is better then none in a storm, and we rode in through the open gate and dis­ mounted. “We were saluted bv the barking of dogs from the back of the house, aud tafore wo had reached the door it was opened and a man appeared. “We asked the way to our destination, and soon found that we bad strayed many mile* fnnn the direct rood. “ 'You’ll hardly git thar to-night.* aaid the man, in harsh'accents; aud he did not refuse lodgings for ourselves and horses when it was requested. “We accompanied him to the stable nnd onr tired animals iutrodured to the company of a cow and a pair of oxen, then followed our host back to the house. “1 had taken a Mnuige dislike to the man, and was not made more easy by bin ■uncivil manners and guttural tones.’ •“The room into which he lea us was -already occupied by a short, brown woman, the man's wife, and three very-dirty chil­ dren. The children were ordered off tc bed by their mother, who, at ber husband’s suggestion, placed bread, ‘-Hitter, and a plate of cold po&toefl upon the table for OU” delectation. “I had often eaten worae fare with the roli«h which i» given by sharp hanger, and ■ did not dcApise the meal; my ccmpanion wa>. more dainty, nnd. while" making n bare created ■yrup and sugar grow in Vermont, and fiavn often v. omb’rvd what becomes of tttii healthful beverage.

Well, considering the situation, since Frisco Matt and his companion® offered tliom no indignities, being under strict order® in thi® reaper: from Revolver Guy. During the day the four tough® pushed through the mountain® in a westerly direction, pursuing a devious way, yet having a certain point in view ahead.* Cellar Gulch wm tha point aimed at, the agreed place at meeting with the gambler and revolver king. This gulch was nearly thirty mile® from the wagon trail, and still farthei*from Rocket Bar. On a level bit of ground overlooking the gulch a dense growth of mountain cedars gave the place its n<ip>e, and within this tnicket of cedars the little party capie to a bait under the frowning shadow® of a mountain crag. Night was falling, nnd at this elevation promised to be a chill one. Tbe uomeu were as si®led to alight, and made comfortable on a neat of bough®. Then one of tbe guard kindled a tire in the ’ center of a little glnde around which the party gathered. Meat and bread were pro­ duced by one of tto toughs, and all lunched from the same. Frisco Malt treated the women wi h rude respect, so that neither felt berself under restraint. They were not captives, but la­ dies under escort to a place of safety. In thi® light the female® vtewod the sitnation and were to remain in ignorance of the truth for some lime to come. The ge­ nial the rciiikted the situation anything but . diragreealile, and the wonreu ware di»| ojed to talk freely, Nettie wa® sometime® under misgivings, hut her mother always brushed aside the shadows with pleasant cheer!nines® and re­ assuring word®. "We have Io thank Revolver Guy for our BwajH’ from that wicked dutuund-hunter. and al<o from the bloodthirsty (jioux,” ass.Tted the widow. "I sincerely hope you are right." answer­ ed Nettie, “but I cannot help thinking that Revolver Guy acted quverly this morning. I never liked tto look® of the ipan." "Would you prefer Jonathan Skinner?" The widow mulled nt her own question, but Nettie started in tor brain a new train of thought by saying: ' "What if Jonathan Skiauer and. Revolver Guy were partners in a scheme of villainy? I have thought that such might be the case.'" " ’ .. “Mercy, what a girl!" exclaimed Mrs. Barver. * Nevertheless the remark of her daughter tret the good widow to thinking ui a way that wasSnot pleaxant for her own peace of mind. The women carried on their conversation without listemir® other than tbetnselve®, since tto tough® held themsclv**® at a re­ spectful distance always. Thi® wa® accord­ ing to strict orders from Frisco Mutt. Night passed pleasantly enough, and on the morrow the little party muted i’ into the gulch, where, near the bank , Bmall creek, stood a mosa,grown ol<l _... built of stones. • Thc sun’s rays peered down into tto gulch, and tto limpid water® of the brook glittered in a way that brought an exclamation of delight from Nettie Barver. • “We're ter stop here-a speU,” said Frisco lic continued: "Wo’vr made a compromise.

He has kindly volunteered to tie the knot, he being a JnNtice, and I have accepted the offer.” Then, without waiting for a reply, the Bmbler went'to the door and called Frisco at:. When that worthy put in an appear­ ance, Revolver Guy wdd: -We want you fora witness, Frisco.” “All right, Cap'n." ■ The giant tough forged hi® way into the room, a grin of evident satisfaction on hi® ugly faee. Ho frit twinges Irom the wound j Primrose Pete had given him. and knowing the woman were hi® friend®, he was villain enough to wish them humbled. “Come, Siiuire, you will tic thi® knot at once,” said Revolver Guy, turning to the Montana diamond-hunter. “Certainly." • Jonathan* Skinner came to his feet, anil tho gambler- at once seized Nettie's hand imdled her forwmd.

Preston Forge, your doom is seal­ ed ; vour hour has come, and you must die! Cowboy®, do your duty!” Four men at once advanced upon tbe de­ fenseless outlaw gambler.

Progressive agriculture, as some ap­ pear to understand it, means going ahead, without regard to *af*ity or «xpense. The young progressive farmer who never hoed an acre of corn or mowed an acre of gra.M, fancies that by applying “business principles* to agriculture, he can roll up a fortune in a few years. He must have a farm as large a* his father had in hia old age; must live in a better house than bis pa­ rents; he must drive a better horst; fide in a better carriage; sport a finer watch; live in a more fashionable style; play the gentleman at more expense; rut larger awella; speak londer.and be known further than his old fogy ancestor* ever dared to dream of.’ The vouhg prugres»ivi» famivr has no idea of getting nch by the little; he is bound to have a pile all at onee. He is not going to bring up lamb« by hand, sell turnips at twenty-live cento a bush­ el, carry- chickens' to market, wear patched clothes;and cart potatoes round like a pedlar. Not he. Talk to him about cultivating a farm of fifty acres! Why, he wants four or five hundred acres, and he will demonstrate bv fig­ ures that the more land l>r cultivates tbe larger his percentage of profits will Talk to one of these prognwaive farm­ er* about experience, and bv will laugh at you. Why, he Is sutc that he knows a thousand tilings that would astonish his father. Experience! To lie sure he has not had it himself, but h* knows who has, and what it is. He wants to start, not at the bottom of the hill, but at.the ton. He don't believe in climt>ihg up slowlv, working and waiting, and though he may be willing to work, he is not anxious to wait. Now that is the point I believe voung men ought to oe set right on. Instead of beginning with much, they ought to begin with little. Instead of a large farm,-they ought to have only a small one. Their experience is small, ’ ' tent ft weak, and their their juilgtm wants ought to t be ____ few.

In a Tillage not far from Boaton an attempt waa recently made to reform by fright a genial old chap who was so strongly “in love with hia cups” as to be habitually full Friends had labored with the erring brother in vain, aniY in form him who could and in any way tney chose. A number of young lark* in the town decided to try th* experi­ ment of fright. j One warm summer afternoon the old fellow got as full as a tick, when the committee on reform procured a coffin from an undertaker and placed th* soggy toper inside, with the lid turned back to give him air, and conveyed him to the churchyard cemetery, where, con­ cealed behind the shrubbery, they await­ ed his awakening. After twq hount' sleep the old fellow awoke, and wiggling hia head from side to aide, and htruggling to raise his hands, the seriousness of his position seemed to dawn upon him. He finally raistid his head, looked down the length of his coffin, surveyed the tombstones and monupenta on either aide, and finding none other similarly situated, he said: •Tm (hie) either the (hie) first man, or else (hie) Fru left.”—Caston Globe.

In some of the mills and in the lot where the new jail is going up the gas jets burn forever. There is at least one town or dty in this region wherein the street lights are never put out, because it would be a waste of money to hire a lamplighter after the original lighting.

The poem is—or was—in the possession of an inhab­ itant of Kokomo, whose grandfather kept an inn in Chesterfield, a little riln Richmond, Va. One night a who showed plainly tho young of dissipation, appeared at the door and requested a room, if one could be given him. He retired, and the inn Efop’.e saw no more of him; for the fol­ wing morning, when they went to call him to breakfast, ho had disappeared, leaving' only a book, on the fly-leaf of which was tho above poem, "written in Royian characters, and almost as legi­ ble m print itself." Tho manuscript contains not an erasure or a single interlineated word, and is signed “E. A. P.” The peculiarity of the writing, the description of the voung man, and the characteristics of the poem point to Poe as the author. The evidence—external and internal—seems in tho opinion of tho correspondent, Mr. Brenner, to render tho authorship more than prob­ able—almost certain. Tho poem is en­ titled “Leoniunie,” and is as follows: Leonalnlv—iuurel* named ber, And they Unk Uw light Of tbo Husbina Btara. and framed ber In a *tni 16 of whit*; And they made her hair of gloomy Midnight, and her oyee of bloomy Mooiuhine. and they brought ber to ma In a Boleinn night. .

They have been, it may easily l:e conceded, event* entirely outatde of the usual happenings of such u locality as this, and they are such as peo­ ple of average curiosity everywhere might well feel interested in. Still, [ have been inclined to treat these requests, as one after another they have «>me to mo, as mere manifestations of vulgar curiosity.

My arm* opened to her; they clasped her close to my heart'; her fair brown head lay (ryrtfully upon my shoulder, her deep blue eyes looked lovingly up to mine. A silent, heart­ felt prayer went up in that moment from a breast two full for. utterance, that so it might be in all the years to come: that the lund, tempestuous days and nights of sharp trial and of final triumph that had so strangely brought ur together and united our destinies might never more return, and that the happiness in which these present hours found us might bo an abiding guest. Amen and amen’ 8be Lad learned already to translate tho expression of my face, and something that she now discovered there troubled her. “ What is it, Harvey?" she asked. “ What has Mr. Warner been saying to you?

Her slender white fingers covered ber face, as if to shut from her sight the spec­ ters conjured up by her own words. To tell her tall that Mr. Warner had said—to give to bar, the young bride of a month, the forcible reason shat had impressed me with the belief that his request should be complied with, was a delicate task: and when I bad gireu her that reason a blush covered her face, and it was hidden again upon my shoulder.

My long course st the university was at last ended, and though I did not carry off the first honors-of my class, my name stood high on tho roll, and I had the satisfaction of knowing that my diploma was deserved. There was but one of my class to whom I felt particularly drawn. He was a care­ less. merry fellow. Albert Winfield by name, whose aversion to study was almost balanced by an occasional spurt of industry with which he would pull up on his. stand­ ing.

CHICAGO ANARCHISTS. In the trial of the Chicago anarchists evidence has been produced—by the anarchists—that Rheinhold Kreuger, now dead; threw the bomb which killed so many officers. The story goes ttat Kreuger, after tbe bomb-throwing, fearing arrest, spent the night in visit­ ing hell hole* of saloons, and drinking hard. Ou tbe night of tbe 5th, in com­ pany with a friend as bad and as drunk as himself, went to a saloon, corner of Fulton and Desplains street, showed a bulldog revolver and said that he was determined to kill a policeman.

HUNSICKBR, Woodland. Michigan. Advice to Young Girls. A lady of intelligence and observaMtion has remarked: “I wish I could im­ press upon the minds of the girls that the chief end of woman is not to marry young.” If girls coultj, only be brought to believe that their chances for a happy marriage were better after twetytive than before there would be much leas misery in the world than there now ia. To be sure they might not have so many opportunities to marn- as before, but as they do not need to marry but one at a time it is necessary that one should be satisfactory. As a girl grows older, if she thinks at all, she certainly becomes more capable of judging what would ifiake her happy than when younger. How many girU of 20 would think of marrying the man they would gladly have married at 16? At SO a woman who is somewhat inde­ pendent, and not over-anxious to marry, is much harder to please and more care­ •IB UPON US, ANDful in her choice than one at 20. There is good reason for thia. Her mind is improved with her years and she now looks beyond mere appearances in judging men. She is apt to ask if thia man who is so very polite in company ip really kind-hearted. Do his polite action* spring from a happy, genial Are in dtiuainl.

A very young girl takes it for granted that men ore always as she sets them in society— polite, friendly, and on their good-be­ havior. If she marries early the man who happens to please her fancy, she learns to her sorrow that in nine cases out of ten a man in society and a man Acknowledged by all to be the beat in the market.

' fact that a minister in one of tlie smal­ ler towns near Boston, has resigned his pastorate, and accepted the position of pitcher iu a baae ball dub. It.does seem a little tough, but the congrega­ tion Till have to stand It, as the minis­ ter says bis calling and election ia sure, as a base ball player. Ho tried preach­ ing faithfully co four hundred dollars a year, and tried to support a family, but when ho had a call to play base ball at three thousand dollars a year, he felt that it waa his duty to accept. To those his former congregation who find fault with him, and say he has fal­ len from grace, and is in the employ of the devil, he has replies that- silence them. He says in the, first place that the college at which he was educated, paid more attention to the education of his muscles than his brains. The athletic exercises were compulaorv, and before he realised it ho was a cham­ pion oarsman, a foot-ballist and a* base ball player of note. . He tried to learn all that was possible of tliat which was good, between his athletic studies, in order to prepare himself for the minis­ try, and he believes be graduated as well posted as ministers average. And when he was assigned to a pulpit, he tried to do his duty, but it was up-hill work. aud when he saw his classmates playing base ball at good salaries, and he was compelled to preach, and pray, and marry, and bury, and take his pay in donations of farm produce, and be looked npon as an object of charity, he felt that playing base ball couldn’t be very bad, aud he accepted a position, and instead of Owing for groceries, and sseing his family poverty stricken, he has money in the bank, his family lives wall, and he thinks ho can lay up money enough daring the base ball season so he can preach all winter for nothing, and he bad rather do that than to preach for pay, and not get it without begging. Some of his congre­ gation tell him that it will injure him to associate with base ball players, where betting is indulged in. He re­ plies that since he has been in the base ball club there haa been less backbiting than there was in his church, and he has lees mean tilings said about him by the base ball players than he did by his brethren before be left the church. He says he has yet to hear the first per­ son say his wife is extravagant because she made over an old bonnet into a new one, by putting on a piece of cherry ribbon, and some of the sisters of his former congregation did abuse bis wife for the same thing before he left. He said before be left oft preaching he car­ ried a subscription paper around for a week to raise money to send a poor old woman to her friends in Illinois, and finally had to make up most of the mon ey himself, out of his alleged salary. While a few days ago, on the cars, bis base ball club encountered a woman who was out of funds, and wanted to get to Missouri, with her baby, and be­ fore the woman had time to tell her story the base ball boys raised sixtyfive dollars for her, and wanted her to take more, aud they tended her baby for two hundred miles and made her happy. He says as far as betting on the game is concerned, he is opposed to it bat he can’t help it. If people want to bet they will bet on anything, and if they are to bet they had better wager on a square game of base ball, or a square horse race, than to take chances on a church grab bag, or lot­ tery, where they are bound to lose thenmoney anyway. The minister is evi­ dently loaded forbear, and can demon­ strate to anybody who questions his judgment in leaving fbe ministry for the base ball field, that he looks upon the world as a place to live and enjoy himself.

I p*y Cash for all of my goods and give my customers the benefit. A Novel Swindle. A rich businfws-man at Frankfort-onthe-Main has just discovered, through an act of kindnete, that he has been swindled in a small but rather unique way by his cashier, jvho had been a long time in his employ, and in whom hu implicitly trusted. By contract tlie cashier was employed, when first en­ gaged, at a salary of ♦750 annually and an additional ff7b a year for every child born to him. In the course of years such a happy event was announced five times to tho employer, who raised the salon* ot his clerk each time without & murmur. Last Christmas-Eve the mer­ chant suddenlv got it into bis head to play Santa Claus, and suddenly ap­ peared in the cashier’s modest quarters laden with a heap of presents for madam and the five little ones. To bis surprise, onlv two of the latter wen* furthcoming, and after some evasions the parents had to confess that they never had any more, and that tho other three were a ruse gotten up to get the additional salary. The best of tne story is that the employer was magnon inions' enough to forgive ond to keep bis cashier in his employ without even deducting any of tlie safaiy for the three missing children. A California widow who put her all into a deal in stocks and was shrunk oat, called upon her broker and said: “When will this thing probably come oat in tbe papers!" •'To-morrow, doubtless." “How long can you suppress it!” “Why.

The animal, which inhabited the Alpine regions of Central Europe, frequents the wildest aud most inaccessible peaks and ravines of its mountain home. The sport of the chamois hunt was at one time a very jKipular one, and expeditions to the animal’s browsing place* were in the past frequently organized, and the few animals that existed between the snow line and the glacier line of the Alps were so thinned out by" these hunting parties that they are now very tare. In the entire year the total number of chamois killed by the hunters was nine hundred and eighteen, and if the trade depended upon the chamois for the commercial “shammy” skin there would not have been enough skins thrown on tho market in that year to give each importing -house in this country a half skin. Timo was when the chamois skin of the trade was • genuine, but the scarcity of the animal and the rapidly growing demand for the ar­ ticle necessitated a substitute, and this was found in the skin of • the common sheep, which now maiiuerades under the appearance and name of the orig­ inal article. All the chamois skins that are brought to this country come from France or from England. Up to within a few years ago the entire trade in this country was furnished from England, the skins coming from the bocks of sheep that were raised and grazed on English pasture lands. There is little difference in the value of the French and. English chamois, both answering the purpose for which thev are purchased equally well. The only real difference—aud it is a difference in which tho French loco their claim for the superiority of their goods over tho .English goods—is that, on ac­ count of the peculiar property of a cer­ tain fish oil wijh which they prepare their skins, tho French chamois, in­ stead of drying hard and atit’.-like parchment, dries as soft as before it is put in water. The English chamois is prepared in oil and lime, and is bleached to any desired shade. The best quality of goods comes from the backs of the vonng animals. After tho wool has been removed the skins aro shaved down to the required thickness, which is regulated by the purposes for which the skin is to bo used. After it has been tanned it is put intQ a preparation of oil and lime, softened, and then bleached to the /leaired shade. It is then dried and sorted, according to tho sizes of the skins, and tied up in bun­ dle* called by the trade “kips," and is ready to be thrown on the market and sold os genuine chamois skin.—Bouton Cultivator. How Racing Destroy© I the Collins Line. Anxious to reap tho golden fruits de­ rived from tho carrying of the mails, and to also show to tho world that the United States was as well able to build and organize a fleet of swift steamers as Great Britain, Mr. E. K. Collins launched his company, the end of which was such a tragic one. He was to re­ ceive a subs dy of $19,200 per voyage to home-built steamers carrying the mails of the United States to and from Europe, and ho began nobly by con­ structing four .magnificent steamers— the Arctic, the Baltic, the Atlantic, and tho Pacific. These vessels were built of live oak, planked with pitch pine, the hull being extremely solid, and divided into compartments so that, in the opinion of tbeir builders, they were all but proof against being sunk by a collision or by Jtouching the ground. These steamers began to carry the mails and passengers in 1850, and very scon Congress raised Mr. Collins’ subsidy to $33,000 per voy­ age, and fixing tho minimum at $85',­ 000 per annum. The Collins steamers, superbly furnished, perlormed such runs a. ross tho Atlantic at bad never before been made; and on one of them the Arctic,' after doing the voyage from west to east in a. little over nine days, was proudly christened by our hur­ rahing countrymen "tho clipper of the seas.” Alas! tho sad end came only too soon. The captains took to racing, aud there was no personal management to stop them. "On the 21 st of Septem­ ber, 1851, “the clipper of the seas" left. Liverpool for New York with 283 pass-" oncers and a crew of 135, nearly all of them Americans. When within sixty miles of Cape Race the Arctic comded with the French steamer Vesta; but deeming his ship not much injured, the American captain made for the Cape, and before he had got far the water rushed in, and almost immediately the splendid steamer was engulfed in the waves. -Only fourteen passengers were saveo, and among those who perished were the wife, son, and daughter of poor Mr. Collins. Sixteen months later came the still more appalling disaster to the Pacific. She quitted Liverpool on the 23dof January, 185<-, with fortyfive passengers, a crew of 141 persons, the mail* and a cargo insured for over •2,000,000. 1 ho Pacific was timed to reach New York the 2d of February, but she never reached that port, nor any port on earth. The loss sealed the doom of the Collins Line.—Boston Herald. _____________________ He Went by the Rules. “I wish you wouldn’t grin at me in that idiotic way, Mr. Lightwaist; you make me nervous." “Can’t help it—my ‘Hand-book on High-toned Etiquette’ says you must wear a pleasant smile during the pauses in conversation, and 1* m wearing one, that’s alt"—Fuel.___________ The curious observation ha* been made that the cinchona trees growing in the hot-houies at Europe develop no quinine in their bark. wiirU.

The figures of our foreign trade, as shown by increased customs revenue, indicate a large increase ot imports. Our ex­ port trade, it is stated, will not show a corresponding enlargement; on die contrary it has fallen off. This is an unpleasant feature, since what we do not pay for in product, agricultural or manufactured, must be met by gold payments. The situation, however, on the whole is gratifying. Certain New York Democrats are at work again showing how magnificent­ ly Samuel J. Tilden would run if be were made tbe candidate of the De­ mocracy for President in 1888. It is an easy matter to speculate on such a proposition. Mr. Tilden did run in 1876, and with great speed, and four years later, as well as in 1884, it was clear enough that if be had said the word he might have been the candidate. The party yearned for him, and In many localities it still yearns. Tbe confidence in his leadership aud in his Democracy is such that be probably could have any honor which bis party had to bestow, if he would but say tbe word, but that word need not be looked tor. The troubles which compelled Mr. Tilden’s retirement in 1880 have not grown less serious by tbe lapse of time. He is an aged, and, physically, a feeble man, though mentally he ap­ pears to bd as vigorous as -ever. At his time of life men do not usually re­ new their youth, and tbe most that he can hope for is to husband such strength as be has by avoiding the cares and ex­ citement of sharp contact with the world. What, then, is tbe object of stirring up in the Democratic breast longings which cannot be satisfied? Why raise the hopes of Democracy to tlie heavens when they must bedashed to earth againT W ty tickle the nose of the Jacksonian mule with the Tilden ■»trnw whicn is forever beyond his reachT Possibly bt-cauv. if onr Uncle Samuel shall live until 1888, be may be used, mm he was m 1884. by the New York party machine, as a bait to catch rhe delegates to the national conven tion. “Yss, it vims abendt Shake. 1 pelief dot poy pring* oop in Shtate Prison poory quick.” • "What’s up now!” “Vhell, I haf a front who vhas a poor man und haf a hardt time to gat along.

"Father,” he began, after taking the old man out back of the bam, "your years are many.” "Yes, my son.” "You have-toiled early and late, and by the sweat of your brow you have amassed tins big farm.” "That’s so, William.” “It has pained me more than I can tell to see you, at your age, troubling yourself with the cares of life. Father, your declining years should be spent in the old arm-chair in the chimney cor­ ner.” "Yes, William, they should.” "Now, father, being you are old and feeble and helpless, give me a deed of the farm and you and mother live out $90,528,546.

' Graham had told Mr. Porter all about his plans, and related that be would carry them out nt the time he did,-but requested thnt the time be not given in publishing the article, for fear that the authorities would prevent him in his purpose. Accordingly very few were among the spectators. Gra­ ham kept tho cask in which he intended to tub CMittua a. voazutn co.MxLTiaoax.ao. make his trip in a saloon in this city. About 11 o’clock last night he loaded it in a wagon, and. accompanied by several "friends, started for tho falls.

The towing process took only a few minutes, nnd then the stream caught the cask and started it toward the w hirlpool. At first it moved slowly down, then faster and faster, until the mad current dashed it on with it* full force. The cask bounded up and down over the great waves nnd several times turned a complete somersault, list the wider portion remained uppermost, ‘ all hough, it turned idouqd like a top.

The steamer Alameda, which has arrived from Australia, brings particulars of fear­ ful volcanic eruptions in New Zealand last month. Natives of Tarango, in the Auck­ land lake district, ware awakened by ter­ rific lightning flnsnes. which continued for two hums, when a tn-mendou* earthquake occurred. People fled from their houses in their night-clothes. The earthquakes continued to follow in quick succession up to 7 a. m., when a leaden-colored cloud was observed advancing from the south, spread­ ing dot until it covered the sky. While still moving it burst with the sound of thunder, and shortly after showers of fiao dust having n sulphurous smell began fall­ ing. Accounts from other point* state that Mount Tarewera was the first to break out, followed shortly by tbe entire Faeroa range, hurlhpi flame, burning lava, anil stones over the surrounding country. For the first time in tradition the extinct volcano of Rnapctu wns awakened into activity. The entire country, over an exteutflf 120 miles long by 20 in breadth, was nothing but a mas J of fiuue, and hot, crumbling soil. Numerous small native villages were to4al!y destroyed. Wairoa was covered to a depth of ten feet with dust and ashes. Rahtomahnna was completely ingulfed. Twen­ ty persons, among them several English residents, are known to have lost their live*. One old Maori chief, at Rotourn, was dug out alive after having been buried in ashes 104 hours. At the date of the departure of the steam­ er the volcanoes were still very active, and the temperature of tho hot lakes was in­ creasing. - •­ A MINER’S HARD LUCK. Huiulrtxl Hollar*. [Pennsboro fW.

Fully $20,000 in cash, mostly specie, was popularly sup­ posed to be thus concealed, by the neighbors. At irregular. intervals Moore would examine und count hia board, nnd at such times his friends say gold and silver would lie in great piles about the table io Moore's sleep­ ing room. Two weeks ago he made an ex­ amination of three lots of specie, and lost night he concluded to look nt it again. An overhauling of the bags and old stockings in which the cash was kept showed that $5,500 in gold, nnd $2,000 in bills had been stolen by some one who hnd watched a previous examination, and noted where the money wa* concealed. There is not tbe slightest clew to the thief. Tommy was a little rogue, whom his mother had hard work to manage. Their house iu the country waa raised a few feet from the ground, and Tommy, io escape a well-deserved whipping, run from his mother and crept under tbe house. Present- Furniture Store Woodland.

The result has been that ’during the part few years hard-glove qontest* and cock-fights’have not been of infrequent occurrence in the college! room.-. Last winter there was a brutal 'log-tight in one of the most thickly inhabited of the. college domi­ ciles. So secret have these affairs been kept that probably not more than a dozen studenta have known of them, ami during the past six years only one of them has leaked out and appeased in print. It would mean immediate.expul­ sion for everyone concerned if the facul­ ty should get wind of any of these con­ tests. To-night a new feature was added to this course of t secret entertainments given to wealthy young Harvard bloods. It was a rat-killin’^ contest in one of the most richly furnished parlors in the finest of tbe fine buildings of the univer­ sity. A. wealthy western student owns a pretty black and tan dog who recently has developed much skill in killing rata A short time ago lie offered to bet a fellow-student that his pet could finish fifty of the rodent* in thirty minutes. The wager was accepted and'8200 a side was put up tlie next day. A few friends of the principals were let into the wcret, aud it was estimated that fully $1,000 changed hands on the result to­ night Early this evening the rats were brought in a box to Cambridge by a well-known rat-catcher of the north end of Boston, who also furnished a large, round pit Tho room presented a queer scene at about 9 o’clock, when the sport began. The elegant furniture had been piled up promiscuously on all aides of the room, and standing nnd sitting upon it were twelve young men, the sons of some of the wealthiest families iu this state. New York, nnd the west They wore their hats on the back of their heads, were smoking cigarettes and excitedly offering wagvre on the restdt of the contest The rats were big and hungry, and their squeals then and during the content sent a cold shiver down tho backs of the students, for fear that the noise would attract the notice of the college officers. The dog was soon put into the pit He is a beautiful specimen of the black and tan. and weighed a trifle over ten pounds. He wont at his victims vicious­ ly. and after dispatching one of the squealing brutes would grab another with lightning-like rapidity. The hung­ ry nits fought well, and often succeeded in biting the dog. In a short time he was covered with blood, nnd at one time, about twenty minutes after the be­ ginning of the contest, ho showed signs of weakening, and it wns feared by his backers that ho would have to be takerf out of the pit. Suddenly he made a "wonderful brace ami went nt hi* little foes more viciously than ever. 'Die dogkilled the last rat ten seconds before hut allotted time was up. Tho game little dog wns then taken oqt, his wounds were washed and drecised and tho dead rats and pit were ' taken back to Boston by the rnt-catcher. The little black and tan was literally covered with bites, but was apparently in no danger of dying from them. A beutiful woman with an artificial* ly-heigbtened color once said to Gen.

We had a raying, which wo® founded 'on ■fact. It was; ‘kaukees must be whipped in two days, or they cannot be beaten at all.’ “We marched north, south, east, west, in any direction Hood saw fit to lead u«. and Shertuan trailed after us.

When •we birou&ckca we know (hat we had Scho­ field in strap, and that he was ours." Thomas ceased talking. He looked* gloomily , into the fire for im instant, and then said, regretfully: • “Yes, we outmarched Schofield, aud then ■we slept, und white we slept Schofield marched by—marched within a half a mile -of our cninp'"fires. I have never seen more intense rage nod profound <li<gnst than was expreracd by the weary, footsore, battletorn Confedt rate soldiers when they dto-covered that their officers had allowed their 4jrey to escajH1. Suddenly we fell into col­ umn and resumed th*- chirse. We pushedSchofield closely. He struck tho BnrjKth River at.Franklin, where the stream makes a right jingle. We were so close to Scho­ field that ho didn't dare to attempt to cross the river fur fear of losing not only bis train* but his army. The Yankee® formed a battle line across the nock of laud formed by the winding river. Their Hauks rest -d on the water. Their center was on a low hill, where a couple of batteries stood in ’ action. We were on the ground early in tho morning. The Yankees had just begun to break earth for au intrunehnieut. We could see their entire line nnd judge cor­ rectly of their number®. We ontautabered them over two to one. 'Djo Confederate*, though tired and hungry’, were keen to be led U> the assault. We one and all pre­ pared to fight at ouoo rather tlum to wait for aru hour or two ami be fed. After our bloody experience at Allntoona we dreaded to attack earthworks manned by veteran Yankee infantry. Now we bad Schofield’s army cooped. They could not retreat. The river wan liehind them. We knew that if we attacked at once we could kill .them, or coptine the in. or drive them into the river. But we also knew that if Hood allowed them to throw up nn earth­ work, it mattered not how slight, they would most tenaciously hold that defense. They were desperate men. Their onlv chance was to fight, aud fight, and’still fight. In the open we could have crushed them ip an hour. Once -cov.-red we knew that they could not be crushed, and we private®, who had fought these men for three year®, knew they would fight to the last man. almost, once they were warmed to lheir work. “As we stood in column wailing for our order®, 1 saw tho corps nnd division com­ manders crowd around Hood, who had rid­ den onto the field. I dropped out of tho ranks and drew near to the group. They were insjiccting tbe Yankee fine. I b-ard -Cleburne, approved and fearless fighter, urge Hood to order the assault nt once. I hoard other general offic r® advise him not -to waste time, not to allow the Yankee* ’time to cover themselves. Hood refused to order the assault, raying the troops were ■ tired and hungry, and needed food and rest, and he added, contemptuous!v: ‘In ten minutes we cun drive the Yankees out of any works they can throw up in two huurZ They cannot hold Ihnt line.' Clebhrne "hook his bead negative!v at this, but Hood was firm. When I raw Cleburne, who was ever keen for battle, shake his head I was discouraged. If Cleburne dreads the work, it must be hopelera, I thomjht “Lhe men were ordered to cook break­ fast, nnd obeyed sullenly. The Yankee earthworks steadily grew ns we looked ou. Two hour® passed aud they were finished, and the Yankee-infautry souk out of sight behind them. Then came matchiug aud countermarching on our pnrt. It was four o'clock before our dispositions for the as­ sault were mode. From the |>osition I was in I eotild plainly see the Yankee line. It teemed to be deserted. Now and then the • bead .of a man would appear above the works, or an artillerymiin would crouch behind a gun and gaze in our direction. We were formed for tbe assault. The plan was to launch several columns ngaiust the line and endeavor to break it nt different points, white the real attack would be made ou the little hill where the two batteries stood. Our artillery went into action. Some dis­ mounted artillerymen were formed behind as. These were to follow us closely, and when we had ouptured the Yankee guns they were to turn them and pulverize the flying Yankees. It was a gmxl idea, and lhe artillerymen laughed gleefully st the pict-tre they conjured. It was well they bad their laugh first. “AU was ready; we ax»o and dash-d for­ ward. Out of the ground ro«e the Yankee pickets, and. firing Mice, they ran fur their earthwork. A« we screamed out the charg­ ing yell the Yankee troops row up from behind their works and their rifles fell into a horizontal Hoe, tbe Federal artillerists sprung to their guns, we instinctively pulled our bat bnmn down a® though to protect nicn fell In hundreds. We staggered on through thii storm of bullets and canister for five minutes. We had not reached tbe Union line. Then wo heard exultant shouts to our left, and through the drifting smoke caught a glimpse of our battle flags planted on. the Federal breastworks on tho bill; aud as we raw the men dad in gny clamber over the works and disappear, x® redoubled our effort® to take the fine in front of us. Ito fire did not alnck^^ particle. — Its defendent paid no atc*H n.to tho disanter that had overtaken thel. ____ ...__ center. As„_ wow drew doser, tho parapet, reddened in the smoke anil tho fire, resembled the fury of hell in .its intensity. Then loud above the battle's roar sounded tho charging cheer of the Yankee troop*. and we knew that the Confe<lerute« who had broken the Federal cen­ ter were being called upon to make good their success by meeting the charge of the Yankee reserve®. Could thev withstand it? Promptly came the answer. There was a sohd crash of musketry from that portion of the line, and in an instant the remnants of the victorious Confederates saarmed out of the captured works and ran fur cover. Instantly the earthwork was manned by a dounle line of blue-coated infnntry, who shot down the living Confeder­ ates by scores. “W'e pressed on. We were so close to the works that some of our men fell into tho ditch. We could see tho - eyes of tho Yankee infantry as thev looked over their rifle sights. Their faces were pallid, their jaws set, and their eyes blazed with battle light. I never before saw such rapid handling of artillery. It seem­ ed to me that I could see No.-1 impatiently tap with sponge staff on the blackened muxzles of the brass. guns, as ho called for canister, and canister, and still more sufficiently near to feel guns. 1 looked back. ,W not advanced far. Th® dead 1 windrows. _________ Wounded men were staggering .over the field aad falling/n ones, twos, and threes, as they came together for aid, between tho lines of dead. Tho men hesitated. They realized that they could not carry the works. Their line officers tried to hold them. Tney staggered a few feet nearer tho Federal line, firing wildly tho while, to be scorched by tho hot breath of cannon aud rifles. They wavered badly, tried to bold on. then broke and ran for cover. We were under fire for about ten minutes, and one- third of our division, Reynolds’, were killed or wounded. Stunned, bewildered and horribly disappointed, we gathered in a Srotocted position and were speedily reirmed. iVe were allowed to rest for awhile. “Of course the planned simultaneous at­ tack by several columns hod failed. Of course they did not get off together. They went in ono after the other, and they were nil whipped. Again We were formed into charging columns. Our qjlieeni briefly ex­ plained the necessity of carrying the works. We swore to take them or me in tho at­ tempt. Ab." said Thomas, “it is easy to swear to do things when yon are not under tire, but hard, exceedingly hard, to accomplish them. We rushed to the as­ sault again, again to be mot by n lire the heat ot which warped ns out of line. It seemed to me that the air was so mil of biiUets that I c juld have caught some by simply grabbing ou either side or above me. We advanced close to ths works, anti again we broke and fled for cover. Tljp Yankees, now thoroughly angry, and merciless, be­ gan to shoot at every living object within range of their rifles. Wounded Confeder­ ates, who moved a leg or au iuiu, were in­ stantly selected as targets, and were liter­ ally shot to pieces. “Darkness desemded aud still •is? battletorn Confederates were formed into charg­ ing columns ami launched against the Yan­ kee works. We advanced, stumbling over our dead nnd wounded. The latter shrieked a< we trod on their mangird limbs. Powder smoke hang over the field in cloud*, which reflected the lurid fire that blazed along the Yankee parapet. E'ght aelo.-k, 9 o'clock, 9:30. and we were still figlting. trtiH dying, still trampling our dead and wounded com­ rades into the earth. Then we gave it up. Wr had made five de-perate charges. Pai Cleburne’s men ba 1 made six. and he fell dead white leading tho last. Every general officer in th - army, except Hood, was killed or wounded. Our iotisea find run high up in the thousands. We stacked our arms aud lay down. All night our wounded comrade i crawled off of the field and sought comfort und rest and water among their unhurt brothers. Men with one leg trailing on the earth behind them, other® with shattered nhoulders or torn entrails, or ghastly flesh wounds, or with smashed jaws, or cyershot ouf, would crawl, walk, or be led into our ranks, where they would sink beside us and murmur: ' I am glad to get homo to you. It was hell itself, boys! ’ And they would sink into sleep or death. “We were awake early the next morning to discover that the Yankees bad crossed the river daring tho night, nnd were prob­ ably well on their way toward Nashville. We were mighty glad they hud gone. Hood seemed to be stupefied at tbe disaster that had befallen us. He allowed his dis­ couraged army t > remain in camp by that blocdr battle field. Thi men. already dis­ pirited nnd doubtful of his ability ns n conimandcr, were permitted to roam nt will over the corpse-strewn field. 1 n-ver before or after saw such a frightful battle-ground. Many of the dead were ahot to shreds, .(nd I saw scores of men who had been wound­ ed—logs broken probably—who had put their thumbs into their mouths and had chewed them into shroite to keep from cry­ ing, coward like, as they lay exposed to the merciless fire of the Yankees, waiting for death to keep them from voicing their fear. Frankiia was the only bottle ground I ever saw where the faces of the majority of the dead expressed supreme fear and horror. Dead men's faces were drawn awry. Their eyes were wide open and fear-staring. Their very attitude as they lay prone on the ground with extended,' eurth-clutching finger®, and with their faces practically buried in the soil, told ihe tale of mental agon?' they had endured before death re­ leased them.

Out house fronted' on the main street, nnd the lot ran back to an alley upon which was the stable. My step-father, when be had a profc.wional call Jn the country, to Have time, would bring John through the back and front yard and out the front gale, and th© same also in returning. The “non-conscript act let me out of the Virginian army, and I returned to my home. -—Alexandria, Tcauerae®. The Yankee* being unpleasantly uumcromi there, I per­ suaded my Ktep-fiithcr to let me take John and join the rebel cavalry. A year after-tbi® I was captured and cur­ ried to Camp Morton, Indiana, where I reuiniq/Ml thjrteen month':, then returned hum®, just two year® and ono mouth from the time I rode John off to th* war. I should here state that mother nnd sis­ ter, after I went to tbe war, would very often feed and caress John, and he woulil come at their call. Upon my return home mother told me tbe following: About .a month before my i©turn a body of Federal cavalry passed in front of our house at a doublo-quiek. Just in front of our gate a soldier, riding a targe ctay-Usnk, turned out, galloped up to the Ste, and stoppetl so suddenly ns to, nearly row him forward. Tho home commenced whinnying, pawing, and hosing the gate most energetically, the rider in the mean­ time caning, jerking the reins, and towel­ ing the animal most unmercifully with his ■ spur®. The poor beast moved off reluctantly. My mother and sister hud seen all this, and the latter said, “Ma, I believe that is ol<l John. If it is, he will know my voice." So she called, “John, poor John?* By this time the horse nnd nder had moved up the street al tout fifty yards. But nt the word “John" tho horse wheeled nnd enme back to the gate with such velocity that th® rider scarcely kept his teat, and actually dropped off nt the gate, and was so awful­ ly mad nt the hone that no doubt - he would have shot him had not my sister aud mother interposed Ln his behalf. By lend­ ing him the soldier finally got him swn^. Aud yet further. That night a noise was heard in the yard. Upon examination it was old John, as was his custom, grazing nn lb© tender blue gras*. The pnrt of a halter on his bend showed that he hnd broken his fastenings nnd came back to scenea; he loved.

Colonel Randnli and Cni>taiu Whiting, of Company H. were especially severe. In spite of order® the boys used to pick up young pig®, abundant in that vicinity, nnd work them up into “possum stews." The Captain chanced to discover Ihnt the boys’ game of which their stews were made ]va® contraband, aud he nt once confiscated u flue stew and bad the own­ ers arrested. Now the Captain was n great lover of poker, and he hnd his set regaled the tn®elv®8 with poker nnd the soldier®' slew. Thi, boys resolved to get even. In the natural order this event hajipeued twice. The second tine it was essentially varied, as follows; Four puppies had been procured. Three of them were killed, their bodim bunod and head* left outside, just bock of tho tent. After the officer®' set had got the well-seasoned stew dtepoaed of, the little pappy remaining alive was left at the officers' tent, and began to whine. They invr«tignte«l the whining at once, an<l found tbe little fellow with a card to his neck, upon which was inscril>ed. “You have eaten my three brothers; now eat w. (Signed) Jefe. Davin."

A puppy's whine, bark, or fhren a howl was altogether too suggestive for a long time after. The boys’ stews were not con­ fiscated any more. The disagreeable results of tho affair were entirely tho effects of tbe imagination, a® the stew which the officers confiscated was entirely composed of good chickens and pigs.—Chicago ledger.

The court appointed Ws H. Thompson, of th© Com­ mercial Bank, receiver of the institution. Until to-day no outsider -imagined for a moment that tho liank was embarrassed, aud no run was made upon it. The inves­ tigation of tbe books had been under way since Tuesday morning. At noon to-day the Directors decided to close the doors. As soon as this action became known through­ out the- city, large crowd* of depositors congregated around the bank, anxious to know tho nature of the emhnmuMiment, aad calling upon some ono to inform them. No one answered the call, and the excite­ ment-increased until it became necessary to call the police, who are now upon the scene to quell any possible disturbance. The largest .number of depositors are clerks nnd poor men aud women, so that tho fail­ ure will not affect (o any great extent- th® commercial interests cf the city. The President, of tho bank, J. S. Gar­ land, has been absent from tho city for about six months and tho cashier has as­ sumed his duties as well a* his own. The bank statement of yesterday shows total ossete of $1,108,829 and total liabilities of $985,782. Tho amount of tho deposits is $426,G49. Tbo director® of the bank say that they will not be able to realize on their apparent assets to their full extent. Thompson, the absconding cashier, is a graduate of Harvard College, and since he has held his -responsible position in this city has been regarded as a man of sterling integrity. He is President of the Harvard Club of this city and of the Light Cavalry, aud a prominent Knight Tem­ plar. Ho announced his intention tho latter part of lost week of accom­ panying the Light Cavalry to the State Encampment al Sweet Springs; and it was generally supposed that he was there. Advioes from that point, however, state that hu has never been near tbe camp, and it is supposed that he has mined the army of defaulters in Cannda. No cause for his defalcation can be assigned other than tost living, for ho has never been known to speculate. The amount of Cashier Thompson's bond was $30,000. The bond was signed by Car­ los S.

That*all I have just been reading Jatnee Whit­ comb Riley’s reapon*© to "the Old Man” at tbe annual diunerof tbe Indianapolis Literacy Club, and his reference to Me­ thuselah has awakened in my mind many recollections and remincisencoB of thegraidRd m«n. We first meetMe­ thuselab in the capacity of a sou. At the age of sixty-fire Enoch arose one night and telephoned his family phyeician to come over and azslst him in meeting Methuselah. Day at last dawned on Enoch’s happy home, and ite first red rays lit up the still redder face of the little stranger. For three hundred yearn Enoch aud Methuselah jogged along together Id the capacity of father and son. Then Enoch was suddenly cut down. It was at this time that little Methuselah first realized that he was an orphan. He could not at first realize that fiis fatehr was dead He could not understand why Enoch, with do inherited disease, should be stiuwed out at the curly age of three hundred arid sixty-five years. But the doctor said to Methuselah, "My son, you are indeed fatherless. I have done all 1 could, but it was usless. I had told Enoch many a time that if he went iu swimming before the ice was out of the cree'c, it ifottkl finally doyrn him, but he thought he ^nnw-better than 1 did. He i ' Enoch was. He luded to me as a fresh young gosling, because be |was three hundred years older than I was. He has received tlie reward of the willful, and verily the doom of the smart Aleck, is his. Methuselah now cast about him for some occupation which would take up his attention, and assuage his wild, pas­ sionate gnef over the loss of his father. He entered into the walks of men, and learned their ways. It was at thia time that he learned t,be pernicious habit of using tobacco. We cannot wonder at it when we remember that he was now fatherless. He was at the mercy of a coarse, rough world. Possibly he learned to use tobacco when he went away to business college after the death of his father. Be that as it may, the noxious weed certainly hastened his death, for 600 years after we find him a corpse !! Death is always a surprise, even at the end of a long illness, and after a ripe old age. To those who are near, it seems abrupt; so to his grandchild­ ren, wine of whom survived him, his children having died of old age. the death of Methuselah came like a thun­ derbolt from a clear sky. Methuselah succeeded in cording up more of a record, such as it was, than any other man of whom history informs us.

He wonld go to the enlistment place, and offer his services, and the ofiicer would tell him to go home and encourage his grandchildren to go. Then Methuselah would sit around Noah’s front steps, and smoke and criticise the oondnet of ths war, also the conduct of the en­ emy. It is Mid of Methuselah that he nev­ er wa® the Mime man after his son Lamoch died. He was greatly attached to Lamecti, and when he woke up one night to find him purple in tbe face with membraneous croup, he could hardly realize that he might lose him. The idea of losing a boy who had just rounded tlie glorious morn of his 777th year had never occured to him.

Methuselah finally got so that he could not sleep auy after 4 o’clock in the morning, and he didn’t see bow any one else could. Th© older he got and tbe less valuable hia time became, the earlier be would rise, so that be could get an early start.

There was waa actually no pleasure in getting old where Methuselah was, and being or­ dered about and scolded, and kept in the background by him. So, when at last he died, people sighed and said: “Well, it was better for him to die before he got childish* It was beat that he should die at a time when he'.knew it all.

When a horse waa stolen it became the duty of every member of tbe association to thoroughly arm him­ self mount his steed, and start in pur­ suit of the thief. One day one of the members of the association lost a string of three valuable horses. The identi­ ty of the thief was unknown, but for­ tunately a cine to tho direction he had taken was given by a boy who had seen a stranger with a number of horses going west from town. Within less than half au hour after the lows bad been discovered a band of thirty mem­ bers of the association were in hot pur­ suit of the thief, over hill, down dale, and through forest. We managed to strike the fellows' trail about two o’clock in the afternoon and followed it closely. At half past seven o’clock in the evening we ran across him in a thick clump of bushes, the homes stak­ ed about him. We closed in about him, and tn less t'me than it takes to tell the boree-thief was under arrest. A “court” waa organized without a moment’s de­ lay, and a trial lasting not longer than teu minutes followed. The fellow was found guilty, and sentenced to die. I felt sorry for tbe acanip— tried to inter­ cede in his behalf; he waa a young fel­ low with whom I had been acquainted for some time, and whom I knew came from highly reaper ted parents in Illi­ nois. It was useless. The captors insiaed that he mu«t die, and only laughed at my entreaties. To add to my disgust I waa selected as the one to shoot him. “Say your prayers, boy,” said one of the men to the young fellow, who waa tied to a tree. "Tbe poor cues didn’t know how to pray, and asked me to help him. I didn’t know anything but the Lord's prayer, and tried that. It went so well and seemed to relieve the poor fellow so much that I repeated it several times. "Just as I arose from my knees the details of a plan whereby I might save the poor man’s life Hashed into my mind. I whispered them into his ear, and bis grateful look, as hope waa re­ vived in bis heart, I shall never forget. It*waa growing dark, and the men were becoming impatient, so that I deter­ mined to hurry matters to a crisis. I had a double-barreled, muzzle-loaded shot-gun. nnd butler pretense that the loads were not fresh I fired them oft. I reloaded them, not with shot, but with some vefy small pills which I happened to have with me. I was pretty well watched, and trembled inwardly lest I might be detected. But I wasn’t.

While this agreement was fairly held to most of the time, there were occa­ sions when orders camo from head­ quarters to fire at every living thing on our front. I suppose the idea waa to worry and annoy Lee’s men and keep them under arms as much as possible, and under­ standing it to mean that, their pickets would return shot for shot and seek re­ venge.

By the way we notice that with each declining year the desire to recreate —to get out into tbe world and see how other people live and enjoy life—grows upon u«; consequently having collect­ ed an extra subscription and packed a collar, it was easy to perceive tho ne­ cessity of having Nashville, Ivy lodge and Hastings division represented at Hie great Knights of Pythias gathering, and we were off. The train was crowd­ ed with Sir Knights traveling Toronto- We arrived at Detroit al 6:45 p. m. Bought our tickets.- secured sleepers, ate onr supper*, and then, finding we still had several hours of leisure on onr hands ’ere tlie 11:43 train started east­ ward, set ont in quest of adventure. The hotel clerk—the one with the diamond ring and white neck-tie—bad inform­ ed us that the amusements of the sea­ son were to be found at Brighton and Manhattan Beach, resort* six miles down tbe river. At tbe dock we were informed by the boat clerk that his boat made trips every half hour to either of tii*“e places. We inquired explicitly in regard to the running of the boats, as, we informed the clerk, we must take a train out of the city soon after ten o’clock. “Ob, you have plenty of time to go down; lay overono boat and then get back by 10 o’clock,” was tire hearty assurance. So we bought a ticket and crossed the gang plank. The down trip was universally enjoyed. The broad bosom of the river was covered with crafts of every description, from the sail boat to the mammoth M. C. R. R- ferry boat, which takes a whole train of cars over at one trip. Tbe bright electric lights that gleamed from a hundreds of tow­ ’ era, throughout the city, combined to make a scene that was new, novel and grand. We enjoyed the scene for thir­ ty minutes when we steamed up to the dock at Brighton, went ashore with hundreds of others and tbe boat start­ ed away again. * Brighton is a famous place for De­ troiters to spend their evenings, and aside from its natural attractions has a fine hotel, d$b house, tent theatre, rol­ ler coasters, swings, games, etc. We 'enjoyed the scene for half an hour and then walked to the dock to take tbe boat back to the city. It had just ar­ rived; but tlie captain ordered a tie-up until eleven o’clock when the show would be over. Here was a pretty how-de-do! Six miles from our train, which was billed to start promptly at 11:25, with the principal part of our exchequer tied up in a ticket good for thia day and train only, and a weary waste of water be­ tween. We still had au hour and a half to train time —plenty of time to make the trip if wo only had some means of crowing the river. Our ingenious mind suggested u row bo-.t. Found a man who wonld row us over if he could borrow a certain man’s boat. Said man turned out to be of tbe kind who would ■either borrow nor lend. Got track of a small boy who bad a boat. Inter­ viewed said boy but be was too much engaged in taking in the sights of Brighton beach to go out rowing. We offered a dollar as a persuader to secure fais boat and services to row us across the river to Fort Wayne, and he yield­ ed. Qnce in our boat we bent our back to tbe white ash breeze in a vigorous vanner and in due time reached the fort. A run of half mile brought us to tbe street car line. We bailed a street ear and sank wearily into a seat. The waste of brain tissue trying to make a train under such circumstances is far more exhausting than running a coun­ try newspaper aud ere reached our de­ pot at precisely ten minutes past elev­ en in an exhausted condition. But, thank Heaven! we had a sleeper and would sosn forget our troubles in refreshing sleep. The superintendent of the New Turk Central Pullman Car Co., of whom we bought our tickets, promised us Chat sleepers frould lay in the depot until the 1146 train departed. We had no trouble to find where tbe sleeper ought to be, but couldn’t find it; and later iearn that said sleeper had I pay Cash for all of my goods and give my customers tbe benefit. morning we arc awakened by tbe por­ ter with tho rod* remark that “everyl>ody ia up but ycu.” We turn out re Inctantly, *nd when the porter hold* out hl* hand for pay for what the Pull­ man Car Co. claim it lure'paid him. we take a little iu beating him down from hisotetistomed quarter to fifteen cent*. Tbe country we nre passing through is evidently good, but tbe enterprise so easily noticable in Southern Michigan is wanting. The crop* m general appear to be tilled a* well, but the residence* are inferior, barns smaller, fences poor­ er and fence corners overrun with weeds, thistle* and mulleu stalk*. A fellow traveler who once lived, in this section, but is now a Michigander, in­ formed us that the Canadians were careful farmers. In the art of plowing straight furrow* they couldn’t be beat­ en, but one of our Michigan farmers could plow two furrow* to their one. Wheat is still quite green and the near­ er we get to Toronto the fewer field* do we sec. Barley takes its place and seems to be the staple crop. Th’* is manufactured into whiskey, and so ex­ tensive is tho barley crop that Canada can discount the U. S. in price* on whiskey by one hundred per cent. That is what some of toe bhjrs saygwbb imbibed the- article |at five"cents a We arrive at Toronto about 10 o’clock a. m., and are quite taken with tbe city, which is beautifully located on the north side of Lake Ontario. It is a place of over one hundred thousand and boast* of being tbe mostenterprising city in the Dominion. Montreal i* larger, but not ao progressive, ond To­ ronto people claim the day is not far distant when their city will lead her much older sister. Toronto has many fine buildings, notable among which are the exhibition-building, university, custom house aud,St. James Cathedral. The latter has a spire over 180 feet high, which, it is claimed is the highest in America. King, Yonge, Queen and Front are the principal street*. They are straight as an arrow and lined with solid-looking business houses. A dis­ tance of a mile nr more out in lake On­ tario an island stretches along tbe city’s front, forming n beautiful hay.' The west end of tbe island is known as Han Ian’s point, named after Edward Hanlan, the champion sculler. This island is a popular summer resort, has a fine hotel. Coney island, carousal, and other attractions, Tbe bay is a great place for boating, sculling, etc. One day when the waves ran so wild that the Montreal steamer had to put biu k into port, we saw a couple of fear­ less oarsmen propelling a frail scull swiftly through the billows. Toronto is emphatically a foreign city, and there is much in it thatisnew and novel to us.

'Ey the way we could not help remarking to a compan­ ion how much more beautiful the stars and stripes were than the Union Jack. An august Britisher overheard the re­ mark and took exceptions, to 1L It wasn’t his put in, but we allowed him to file his exceptions, which were that the British flag had a history. “Yes” we replied, “and tbe stars and strips contributed a valuable page to that history.” Another thing that helped us to realize that we were in a foreign city was the refusal of a news boy to accept our “Yankee cents” in exchange for a newspaper. We bad some interesting talks with tbe native*. They are universally op­ posed to home rule; say it n a small matter to raise such a fuss over; think Orangemen are tbe kind of Irish to swear by; that the south bad the right to seceede, and that Canada is a bigger country than the United States. Toronto rs said to have quite a sprink­ ling of American population—bank cashiers and defaulters, who have found it convenient and quite neces­ sary to skip across the tine; but as they come with their pocket* well filled with gold and note* galore, Canada does oot object to their presence. out loss of life, limb or wind Saturday morning. 0.8. TIME TO DOSOMETHCTQ. Since 1876 the Democratic party ha* with great regularity every two years premised the country a reduction of taxation and a revision and reforma­ tion of the tariff". With the exception ef only two years it ha* bad a large majority in the House of Representa­ tive* during all this time, and yet it has not succeeded in taking a single sten in advance. There are in the country a great many ardent tariff reformers who make speeches, publish newspapers, write books, and in various other ways seek to impress upon the people the desira­ bility of changing the existing laws. In tbe East there are many free trade clubs and not a few organizations of manufacturers, devoted to the same ends, and througohout the West there are men belonging to both of the old parties who are morally certain that they are being robbed every day of their lives to maintain some tariff na­ bob in princely style. What are nil these people going to do about it! Are they to keep on crying out against the iniquity of protection and submit humbly 4o whatever indignity the two great political organizations see fit to put upon them? The Prohibitionists answered this question for themselves by organizing a party of their own, aud, while they have not secured many ’.offices as yet; they have bad a great deal of fun with tbe party from which most of them separated. Tbe anti-protec­ tionists of the country have a similar opportunity. If they are in earnest in their efforts to reduce the tariff why do they not organize a party for the pur­ pose! If they are not iu earnest it is about time for them to make less noise. A.re AVliat the People Want New Stock of Broadhead Drena Goode Just Received.

There once lived “down East" a pecu­ liar and original old gentleman named Adams, who was known to all the neighborhood for miles around by his harmless and amt sing eccentricities. A lawyer named Somcrby, riding out of town early one summer morning, discovered Mr. Adams making his way afield with the necessary haying tools —a jug and a scythe—-and stopped to have a talk with him.

The old gentleman heard him pa­ tiently for a time, but at length he broke out; "Look here, squire, you’re wasting your sympathy. I ain’t so poor aa you think I am.

[UUIAURTED.J There was no answer to my appeal; the cold blue eyes of Beaumont stared at me with sneering insolence. 'I'here was no time nor neea ftr the appeal to be repeated. When my glance rested again on the suf­ ferer, I saw at once that the last rigor of dissolution had seized him. A fearful spasm shook hia entire frame; the bed­ covering was thrust aside from the upper part of his person; his hands were clenched, his eyes set in a fixed stare: and in that last convulsion of mortal pain the soul of Edson Whalley fled from his poor suffering body. There is that in the awful presence of death that for the moment puts aside all hates, revenges, and common passions. For full fire minutes after that last breath not a word was uttered by either of those there by the death-beo. Then Clayton Ferrers rose, and, with his glowering face within a yard of mine, addressed me in a voice of suppressed rage. “Look ye, sir, if there be any reason for thia brutal intrusion on your part into the < chamber of sickness and'death, speak up and name it Few words, air, and quickr* My blood was up in an instant; if I needed any provocation for a sharp retort, the words and manner of the man fi­ nished it “At the proper time," I said, "and in the proper place, I will answer to the assassins of Edson Whalley for my conduct But not now—not here." The dark visage of Ferrers poled at my words; his hands were clenched, and he had all tho appearance of a wild beast about to spring. My right hand sought my inside pocket; I thought of Staples' pistol, and determined to nse it if necessary, even in that place. At this instant Dr. Beau­ mont left his place by the foot cf the bed and interposed between us. To my in­ finite astonishment, there appeared not a trace of auger in hit feature*, and his voice •was perfectly calm and unruffled. “Fray, don't be hasty, gentlemen," ho •aid. "Let ub all be calm, and this matter may bo explained to everybody's satisfac­ tion. As Dr. Minton has said, this is rot tho place for such explanations. Will you kindly step to an adjoining room, sir?" I looked hard at the man, wondering ■what new side of his character was about to be developed. His fsco defied my scru­ tiny; it was smooth, bland, almost smiling. “If yon wish a short interview, you shall have it, "I said. “But it must be very short" Ho bowed, and, taking up the lamp, led the way into the hall, I following. I no­ ticed that Mrs. Ferrers entered the c'nambcr with soother lamp as we left it; but I did not observe at the time whether her •on remained with her or followed us. Dr. Beaumont wont further along tho hall, then turned into a passage at the left I fol­ lowed, the wish rising paramount in my mind to get through with these men as quickly as possible, and return to the cot­ tage. The Doctor paused before a door and tried the knob. It was fastened. Tak­ ing a key from his pocket, he unlocked the door and throw it open. “Enter." he said, very blandly, stepping •aide with the light. Only ono foot croaaed th” doorway, when • suspicion of treachery, flashed through my brain. I started back—too late!

It was a week or two after I had recov­ ered from tho fever for which Dr; Minton attended me. ns I walked from the factory to the boarding-house, that my attention was iittracted by an old man who stood on tho street corner. He looked at' me so eagerly that I was at first amused; than, ns I saw that ho slowly followed me, I wa« an­ noyed. Thinking no more of it, I was re­ turning to tho factory from dinher, when, not twenty yards from the door by which I gained the street. I found the same old man standing by the edgp of tho sidewalk. There was no jime' for me to feel either angry or annoyed—I plainly saw ho ijsd been waiting for me. Ho cams forward, shyly but eagerly, hat in hand, and said: “Mia*, please don’t be angry with me; I am your friend. There is something, per­ haps. I can toll you that it will bo well for you-to know.

He followed, and I talked with him. never turning my head, as ho requested, and not speaking when people passed us. “There’s nothing wrong in this, dear mis*, believe mo," he went on. “I have so much to say to you, and my old wife has so much to say. that we must see you some­ where alone. It’s all about yourself. Where can we see you?" “Can you not call at tho boardiug-houao on Sunday?" “I dare not—it would be noticed; it might come to the ears of those in town who would do you harm for it! Stay—do you not walk out sometimes on Sunday?" “Thon next Sunday bo nt tho little lane beyond tho bridge on the road to Fairview, at sunset There'* a clump of trees there, and some rustic benches. If any one should happen there; we can go some­ where else. I'll come there, then, with my old wife; we can tall you long before dark what you ought to know. Will you come —will’ you?" » Sudden and curious ns this adventure and request were. I could see neither dan­ ger nor harm in agreeing to what he asked. Besides, my interest and curiosity were naturally excited. . and tho promise wa* given. He loft roe. begging me as he did so to tell nobody of what ho had told me, and, most important of all, to come alone. “I reckon you'll be in no danger, miss," he said, with a quaint smile. “It's not old Staples, who's been about Here nigh ofi fifty years, nor yet hi* good old wife, who’d seek to do you harm, we're contriving for your good as well as two such weak old head* can." It was Friday when this meeting occurred, and no one will wonder that the matter wak constantly in my thoughts till the appointed time. This old man wa* a stranger to me, nnd I had never heard of him; but I knew where the Fairview place was. I had mvernl times passed the great entrance, aud looked with admiration at tho beautiful grounds and the fine mansion on my Sun­ day evening walks with my room-mate. Dear Rosa:—true friend ns' she was, *be noticed bow absent-minded and abstracted I appeared during those two day*, and in her merry way she trild to plague me. “I declare, Paula," she said on Sunday afternoou, “you must tell me what is the matter with you.

I have felt conscience-sore about it I put my arms about her neck; I told her that she was my dearest friend, as she well knew, but that I did not feel like walking that night, and she must excuse. She kissed m-., and -advised me to go to bed early, saying thatrshe did not think I wu* quite well and strong yet: nnd after ten she put on her hat nnd said she would walk down the river path with some of the girls, and wou'd retain in two hours. That path led in the opposite di­ rection from the Fairview road, and I saw that, if I was beck at the house before her, I should escape any suspicion on her part. It was near HUnset; the girls, as was their habit on Sunday evenings, ware taking their rambles in various directions. I went out alone, and managed to shun Cue com­ pany of any ot them as I walked out on the Fairview road. Several were walking that way. bat I loitered behind them, and when I turned into the little lane beyond the bridge over the creek, there was no­ body near to observe as.

We were fortunate; nobody else was there, excepting his quaint old wife, who gave a little cry when she saw me. “There, Polly, wbat did I tell you?" said the gardener, with a kind of exultation in his voice. "Is she like her. or not?" “Like her?" almost sobbed the old woman. "Bless the young lady's d«ir young heart! she’s her very unage. No two I>eople could bo so alike, unleu their blood wu the same.

Tho harsh mandate of Clayton Ferrers had to bo obeyed. Even while preparations were making for the funeral qf my uncle we left the cottage and took a little bouse Dearer the village, to which my poor friends and protectors removed their household effects. The gardener had a little store of money laid by. and 1 bad some earings: we were in no present dan.aer of want. Hugh Staples loitered in the village aud heard tho talk about tho death ami funeral of Mr. Whalley. He told me that he had heard * Mr. Ferrers praised for his devotion to his uncle, and that much satisfaction was ex­ pressed that the nephew and his mother now had tho whole estate, for hu would spend his monoj freely, and benefit the people with it. 1 saw that there was more that he hesitated to tell, and I urged him to tell mo alt With his voice trembling with indignation he told me that he could plainly see that he was shunned by his formfcr friends; that the poison of Ferrers' tongue had already began to take effect. Some had turned their backs on him when ho spoke to them; others he saw pointing at him. ns if telling that he was an ingrate. Had ho heard me spoken of? Very reluctantly he told me that I was described as a bold adventuress, who had conspired with him to alienate tho affec­ tions of Mr. Whalloy from his sister and > nephew. No one, not even Ferrera, seemed to suspect my relationship to the deceased; and who would have believed it had I gone forth after the funeral and boldly pro­ claimed it? Who would not have cried— adventuress —impostor? Who would listen to the story of a picture and a Bible, con­ firmed only by the testimony of Hugh 8taEles, and my own assertion of what had appened when I stood by the bedside of Mr. Whalley? No one would believe rq wild a tale; no one would credit anything we might say now. The danger for Glayton Ferrers had passed with the d> sth of his uncle; he could laugh to scorn the feeble attempts of an old man and a girl to take the estate from him. In a day or two the gardener reported that the feeling in the village '•»’ growing still stronger against ns. It had taken on a form eomethiug like indignation. He had even heard of Dr. Beaumont siieakmg lightly of my good name. Ths villain! tho cowardly, dastardly villain! Hord ns this was to learn. I could suffer it in silence; bnt now came the finishing stroke of my misery.,In place of the silence that had prevailed as to the cause of the disappearance of Harvey Minton, tho vil­ lage was now filled with'the most astound­ ing rumors and stories, different in detail, but all involving the same disgraceful facts. It was told in the village, and widely be­ lieved, that, pinched by poverty, ho had broken into the Fairview mansion on the very night of Mr. WhaUcvs death, for the purpose of committing a robbery: that he had been detected in the act. and had saved himself from arrest and prosecation only by consenting to leave Berkeley for­ ever. He had not been seen iu the village since that day; Mr. Ferrers and Dr. Beau­ mont both gave very circumstantial statementa of the affair; and the latter, who had been to New York since the funeral, de­ clared that he had seen him there. My heart cried out iu its bitterness against this blasted. But day* had josaed, and he came not bank—aud the hideoua charge was gen­ erally accepted as true! I bad reached tho limit of my strength. The excitemeot* and trials of the last month had completely unnerved me; my reason seemed tottering into eclipse. How or when it came about I do not know; onlv that consciousness left me. and the world and it* people seemed to puss f-ir from idv sight. CHAPTER V. Dr. Mutton asks me to Fay a few words about what the poor lady's sickness was.

Curious Experiments In Hypnotism. I have recently attended three very interesting seances given by Prof. Lny», concerning hypnotism. The meetings were held at his private residence, and were attended only by hist personal friends and some acquaintances of Dr. Luys. Tbe result of tho experiments were very singular indeed, esjxieially during a somnambulistic trance. M. Lays lias studied, and shown to us, tho effects of tlie different drugs and poi­ sons when put in a glass viol, firmly sealed with u lamp, and kept near tbe patient (action den medicament* a distance). Each different drag pro­ duced a special and clwracteristic ef­ fect. Valerian doos not oct like ether or brandy. Wine, brandy, and cham­ pagne do not produce exactly the same effects; 4hat is, the drunkenness brought on by the presence of these different alcoholic beverages is not pre­ cisely the same, and the differences closely correspond with those observed in persons really intoxicated with wine, brandy, or champagne. For instance, ether acts on Esther N. in the follow­ ing manner: After u few minutes'ap­ plication of the ether vial behind the nock, she grows less drowsy, opens her eyes and begins, laughing and grinning without any reason whatever. Her mirth is soon very great and even noisy. A very singular fact is that in her normal condition many colors are not seen by her: but under the influ­ ence of ether she sees them quite dis­ tinctly, and is astonished at the vivid­ ness of her color-impressions. Valerian acts upon her very differently. She begins scratching the floor, os cats do, end believes she is disinterring the re­ mains of her mother; and she iu in a train of thought. Wine, similarly put behind-her back, intoxicates her in a most pronounced and realistic manner; she is certainly in a state of tieastly in­ toxication, and could not possibly be more so if she had really swallowed several bottles of wine, it is quite a sight to witness tho experiment. She goes through the whole ordeal from beginning to end. and finally rolls on the floor as drunk as a drunkard ever was. Water brings on symptoms of hydrophobia. Those experiments fully confirm those of Drs. Burot and Bourru, of Bochefort, on tho same subject. —Science. Did I( Herself. There were five of us in the stage riding out to the Mammoth Cave from Cave City, aud one of tho number wa-t a young lady. As she waa good-looking und attractive, it was no wonder that all of us men folks slicked up our hair, wiped of our chin, and sought to enter­ tain her.

During this interval the young lady produced a small book of poems and interested herself. Pretty soon tbe Major asked her to road a few poems aloud tor our delectation. She blushed and hesitated, but finally complied. She was a fair reader, and it read like fair poetry, but she had scarcely finished the first poem when the Major spake np: “Ah! it’s Burns! I recognized him by his false syntax, lame meter* and wishy-washy rhymes. Dear me, but I hope he is not your standard.” “These are not Burns’ poems," quietly repled. “Not Burns?

We, the “Thirteenth, Company H," had been sleeping tbe sleep of the just and tired soldier. For six long, hot, weary days we had marched, marched, marched from Fairfax and Wolf Run Shoals, Vs., to Gettysburg Ridge, Pa., sore of foot, lame legs." every bone 6ore and creaking with double aches and pains, starving, and thirsty. We reached tbe crest of the ridge, forced back tbe enemy from thia line which we held for twenty-six hours, and resolved to hold it till victory’s wreath rested on our banners, or leave our bodies a rampart to shield and protect those who came after us to battle for freedom. Tired! yes; we ached with pains and hunger. Many of us were sick. Tears came to our eyes. Many wept, as we talked of our peaceful, lovely Vermont Our dear old homes beneath the hill, full of comfort and plenty; the old well with its maple shade and moss-covered bucket; our dear mother, who with a smile gave us a sweet sparkling drink and bode us a God's protection aud speed in our duty, then silently wept. • This night, in the red glow of setting sun, we had forced ourselves, midst shot and shell and minute, to thi< crest, and piled up mils of fence five feet deep to protect us, not knowing what the fates had in store for us on the morrow, but resolving to do our duty like men and Vermonters^ All through the first part of the uight we could hoar the rumbling of artillery and tbe even, regular tread of infantry taking ai.d murmuring of many voices proclaim­ ing that many thousands were arraying themselves for lhe desperate conflict of the morrow. I had al last dropjHtd into “nnconciousueMi of what was around me," a dreary slumber. I was awakened by the low. calm, modulated voice of General Stannard betraying Augur. His'voice tame to me “in my slumber" very distinctly: “You are a fool, sir; an ignorant d----- d fool.” “Very well. General. I am vour prisoner; I can not resent your words.

They well knew they 'had cool, determined men to m.-et. and that death first, even with a paawable victory, awaited ' them. They camo steadily on with colors flying, with the1 step, precision, and order of dress panidr, or march in' review. We poured into them a pelting tiro of musketry. The artitery rut large gaps in their ranks; com­ panies were swept away. “Take nim, boys! take aim!" says the clear voice of Stannard. We did take aimas at a squirrel, in our mountain home. Each constituted himself a sharp-shooter, and felt that upon him individually rested the fate aud re­ sponsibility of victory nnd the safety of tho nation; yes, we took aim. Shot nnd shell fell fust and furious. One had only to raise his hand to catch a handful of bullets, or be miuus a hand. That human line of gray dissolved in death, and yetwelf-renewiug that brave column came steadily on, clos­ ing up as it came.

They fled back in dis­ may and disorder from'deoth, leaving be­ hind their dead and prisoners, including half a dozen Colonels and Lieutenant Colonels, a dozen Captains and Lieuten­ ants. Scarcely bad this been- accomplished when Stannard's ordt-re were, “hurry up boys, change front! forward!" We did this in the “double quick" under a pour­ ing cannonade and musketry like naught but the terrific fury of hell. Stannard en­ couraged us with words nnd person, directed us to an elevatiou that Kemper and Wilcox were striving to get and flank us. Kemper, seeing we„ were in possession, puu-ed and hesitated. Wileox pressed forward nnd to tbe left, leaving a space be­ tween him and Kemper. Stannard saw it nnd drove us like s thin wedge into tho gnp, and there between the forces we fought them both at ence. Then came his cool, clear commandos if appealing to each one's private ear: “Boys, do your duty!" North nnd South Wood face to face, not fifty yards apart, gazing nt each other over their guns, taking in each other's meas­ ure; faces were pallid, eyes blazing with light and the fury of battle; jaw's tightly set; determination was whs', each saw in the other. We could hear the tearing of the paper from tbe powder end of the car­ tridge. There was a fia»h of fire-light, a crush of musketry, a clash of steel, fol­ lowed by shrieks, veils, groans. The smoke cleared away. Tlie gray were swarming into the lines of blue os—prisoners—Ver­ monters had done their duty. They had “taken aim;" the South fired wild. Stan­ nard, badly wounded, would not leave the field till Wilcox, like Kemper, had lieen ■wept away, and the day was ours, with four times as many prisoners as we had men, and four hundred and six Vermonters killed and wounded. The glorious Stannard and his farmer boya of Vermont had that day by deeds of brain and bravery won laurels that will not, .let us hope, fade in the nation's memory­ bat as years come and go, a true realiza­ tion and estimate of what they then achieved will keep the laurels green and fresh forever. Adjust praise, bounteously given George J. Stannard and his nine months' Vermont Brigade, turned the des­ Eirate chances of a nearly defeated army to a grand, yea. glorious victory—turned the current of the nation into* a future glorious existence of honorable prosperity.

Two very remarkable lawsuits have come to an end in Georgia simply as tbe result of the reappearance of a man supposed to be dead. In a railroad ac­ cident in that state a few months ago a wealthy man named Weaver wan said to have been killed. Immediately a widow appeared on the ground, claimed bis property and began suit against tlie railroad company for damages. A few days later another woman, who also claimed to be tbe dead man's widow, arrived on tbe scene, put in a claim for hi® property and entered suit against the railroad, the managers of which be­ gan to fear that they had got them­ selves into a prodigious scrape when they killed Weaver.

Thus do the soullew corporations trample on tho rights of a long-auftering people. A HOT SUMMER.

We predict a large infusion of new blood, in the playing list of tbe League another season. The managers ate already select­ ing m n from the various minor league* for. experimental purposes, and many of the ulccted ones will remain. Chicago only lost five out of the first six; Kaes played In the Eart this trip. Boston t it-two out of three, nnd New York won three straight. Don't forget, when forming opinions, upon the League championship, that the season clows on tbe home grounds of lhe Eastern clubs thb year. The release of Dunlap is a pretty sure indication that there will be but one pro•fesaiona! ball club in St. Louis next year. Speculation is rife as to whether it will be­ u member of the National League or the American Association. We presume it will lie the latter, os it seems to be admitted, that no club can make money in that city unless it plays Sunday games, and this the League will not sanction under any circum­ stances. Chicago leads nil the professional clubs in the number of home runs made this year. It is with ereat satisfaction that the leaders in the League, nft.-r pounding each other to death, jump onto the poor little ■•tailendirs" and wipe the earth with them. Tbo most surprising feature of last week's play was the two consecutive defeat* administered by St. Louis to Philadelphia. Harry Wright's management of the Philadelphia Club has bean so successful that every lover of the game hopes to see n renewal ©f his contract for a term of years, when it expires, in October next. An organization of bnse-bail player* has. been formed in the League, for “self-pro­ tection and mutual benefit.” Ward, of theNew Yorks, is the first President of it. The Vnliuppy Umpire. Thomas York recently resigned his posi­ tion as n League umpire. In reference to the matter, he said to a New York reporter: . “I have been badly treated in the West, but to be hissed and hooted in tbe East is too much. I have often heard that an um­ pire’s position was a thankless one, but I have never resized it be­ fore. It is bad enough to be hissed, and called a thief, but in th* West, when a local cltib loses a game, an umpire is fortunate if he esenpea with bis life. Of Y< rk mon beal the cowboys 3 to 2, McQuery hit a ball over the fence, but it was foul by twenty.five feet, and I called it ao. After the game, Vice President Me Kim, of the Kansas City Club, wanted to know ho# much money 1 would get from the New Yorks for that decision. I remarked that I received my money from the League, and did not take a penny from the New Yorks or any other nine. Then he grew furious, and said that be would e.id my darn. This, iu conjunction with other things inculrntal to the life of an umpire, has made me tired of the businetta, and I intend to make room for some other victim.” It will be remembered, says tbe Phila­ delphia Times, that some* weeks since Mapledorum umpired a game at Kansas City, m the absence of any member of the official corps. He was given a very unplei'S.mt raeeption, jeered through lhe gaiur., and set down in a j>r»«s dispatch aa a “Jay Hawker from Kansas,” though ho is a Pennsylvanian. After the game he wrote a very amusing letter to President Young, in the course of which'ho said: “You will remember that a f&wwtsjks since I applied for an appointment on your staff of the Government give yon. iny solemn promise never to umpire an­ other game of tail at long as 1 live.1* Truly, tho path of tbe umpire n* not sl»ew& It is said that Mrs. James Brown Potter has been offered fSO.OOO for a season of thirty weeks on the professional stage.

We were loosened then, and they took the Swede’s boot* off and stood him on his head, and then played the bastinndo on sole* of hi* feet, Well, you’d a died laughing to hear that pour fellow bellow, entreat, pray, and ones those cowboy*, and although my legs were smarting from some dances I got, I tnst roared. After they thought they tad done enough mischief they »hot out the light* apd left the train, firing t salute aa they departed. Not many of the boy* knew about it. for the con­ ductor paid die Swede a tive-dollnr bill to keep quiet, and he set ’em up to me pretty lively all along the line. A very laughable thing happened re­ cently at Bridgeport, Conn. They bad been patting down a new granolithic pavement, and the last *lab to be laid was still green. Tin* peculiar compo­ sition when first put down is very sticky, but dries quickly, and become* a* hnrd a* iron. As said before the first slab was still green, r nd a spoony young couple in stopping to say good night, happened to stand right on that particular slab. As every one knows who haa been there, it take* a long time for a couple nt lover* to *ay good night that i«, and mean it. They may say good night, but there in always vn<>re or leaiski**ing to follow, nud oa it generally tastes, the dose is re|>eu’ed several time*. Well, after the young couple in question hnd lingered on the suburb* ot each other* lip*, for about twenty or thirty minutes, they finally decided to close the deal, nnd after nne more foud embrace attempted to part company, but the slab upon .which they stood hnd hardened and they were act­ ually rooted to lhe spot. In vain they tried tn release themselves, nnd a* a last resort they yelled for help. A night watchman answered their cries.' and with the help ot a pick axe, suc­ ceeded in digging them out. Tbe meanest woman lives in New England.

When he came ont of tlie shop some strikers surrounded him, to talk to him, and he turned pale, and was going to faint, when his wife was heard to say, "Here, baby, get in the carriage, and I will protect you.” He looked around and there stood bis wife with a baby carriage. He was mad in a minute, and the strikers left him. He went home and whipped his wife, and has been happy ever since. Mr. J. E.

The evidence was secured in a mysterious method practically (ns yet) unknown to the profession.

School opens on the 30th inst., and all who purpose attending during the fall term should be present on the first day. There will be a graduating class this year, and it would be to the advan­ tage of the teachers in this vicinity, es­ pecially those qualified to obtain sec­ ond grade certificates, to lay aside teaching for the year and secure a di­ ploma which will assist them in obtain­ ing positions in graded schools. As the tuition fur the High School is only 30 cent* per week, by clubbing, the total expense of attending during a whole term of twelve weeks can be re­ duced to $18 or $20.

J All this, which passed hurriedly through my mind ns I stood by the bedride of the unhappy Mr. Whalley and-felt my burning indignation kindling against the wretches who had done tho victim to death, must have occurred with equal swiftness to the conspirators—at least to Dr. BeaumonL At such a crisis as this was, the minds of such men as he move swiftly. . He saw. when bo hod recovered from the first shock of the surprise, that the blunt, bull-headed rage of Ferrers must be restrained. The possibility that I had not detected the true cause of death; but if I had. the other possibility that I might be bribed to silence: and, in either event, the absolute necessity of keeping me in the house until time could be gained in which to determine what course ttf'tako with me—these were the thoughts that must have revolted in his mind before be interposed between Clayton Ferrers and myself. There was then, of course, no op­ portunity for talk, fgr even a whisper be­ . tween them, by which an understanding might be reached; but between such men. engaged in the accomplishment of the same bad object, and familiar with each other's ways, signs nnd looks might convey n vol­ ume of intelligence. Their first necessary f step was quickly accomplished, as wo have seen. I was shut and locked in, a prisoner in the hands of my enemies, in the hands of mon whose only safety was iu keeping me locked away from the world, or in put­ ting me out of it. This I knew; and upon looking back upon my conduct at this time, ; I can mo now that my only safety in that hour wun to refuse to temporize one mo­ ment .with these men; to instantly seek egress from the building, shooting down without hesitation any one who sought to detain me. not doubting that I could justify my conduct before a criminal court. This. I say. is what I should hare done; and then the reoord of the next ten days would have been very different; 1 should have simply been in the just hands of the law, instead of the sinister bauds of two pow­ erful end unscrupulous villains. But who is wise at the right moment? I did not sufficiently appreciate the depth of the des­ peration of these men; and I relied too much on the fact that I was armed, never thinking that I could be overcome by their craft and subtlety. With the dangerous intruder safely coop­ ed in this temporary prison, a hurried in­ terview of five minutes between these men would be sufficient to map out a definite plan of operations. I must be seen and talked with; if it should appear that I per­ fectly understood the meaning of the death­ bed scene I had lust witnessed, then I must be corrupted. Who could withstand the offer of n bribe of tan thousand dollars for so slight a thing m was desired of me? Nat a poor, friendless physician like me. certainly. Had I become interested in the schemas of Hugh Staples, whatever they might be? Money, surely—enough of it! —would win me away from that interest If not—then the bludgeon! My silence must be obtained, at noy price. ’ Here will occur the natural query—why did they not at once finish the work which tho asvassin-likc blow commenced with me? How did it happen that I wm per­ . mitted to live, on any terms? Of all the things that 1 do not positively know, which are connected with this his­ tory. this lathe question which has troubled ms the most Yet my reflection upon it has suggested an answer which is perfectly satisfactory to ins. That (hey hesitated to take my life out of any V'ruplea of con­ science, is not to be thought of. They had no conscience! To keep the wealth which their plotting aud their crime had won, they were perfectly prepared to commit an­ other crime; the only question worth while for them to consider, related to their own cons;deration that mved my life. They and so difficult, that all tho time would be appearance could bo accounted for; they could devise an explanation that the peo­ ple of the village would believe, since my abeence confirmed it Paula’s narrative baa need not Staples, nor the ta k of his household. People would laugh at them and their suspicions. If this was all that would threaten them, they need not fear to live on at Berkeley, their crime forever hidden. But here comes upon the scene a new character; a young, nun of ability, learning, and audacity; and' instantly their secret is surprised! Put him where he can do no mischief for the present; and what then? Weekk nmyelatise before he can rejffita; perhaps mouths; but the st ubbornneas bo has already shown in resisting bribes and insisting upon going forth to blazon the accusation to ths world and to the officers of justice is convincing that he is in some way deeply interested in this matter, and that, even through poverty, sickness, and distress, he would, sooner or later, make his way back to Berkeley, to their undoing; Besides—and here waa a thought that nmd have made their guilty souls tremble!—if this man, whom neither of 'hem had ever so much ss dreamed of having the slightest interest in Edson Whalley or his atlaira, could thus, like a bolt from a cloudless sky. diminish the foundation of their carefully built security, a ho could say what others might not also be involved in the schemes mid undertak­ ings of Hugh Mtnpies? Hpw many more had this cunning old man enlisted in the discovery of whit wa« going on within the walls of Fairview? How many more, and who, hod he associated with himself to fer­ ret out the truth? Tho certainty which appeared to these men, du the morning of the ninth of Sep­ tember, of enjoying their ill-gotten wealth in Berkeley, ou ths night of that day was dashed to the earth. The honror of detec­ tion and exposure, if not of remorse, was already upon them; and to such men as these I believe that tho Nemesis of dis­ covery is m tormenting as morse with other men. I dev nd of which I have yet to write, con me that, in the conference that occu over my senseless body, flight was the stern necessity that the conspirators at once agreed upon. Not in­ stant flight; tho emergency was not yet pressing— would not be for weeks, at least, if their plans as to my disposal were shreu il­ ly carried out. The dead must be .buried; the lies as to Staples aud myself that were to prevent suspicion aud counteract the stories which the gardener might teU. were to be industriously disseminated; Clayton Ferrera was to get hunsolf immediately ap­ pointed administrator of bis uncle's estate, as he could easily do; the immense bank deposits were to be secured, the stocks and bonds wete to be realized upon as soon as . possible; all the mone/ that could be re­ alized upon the estate, without suspicion, should be got; and then, with this great wealth—the price of innocent blood!—di­ vided between them; great/even if Ferrets did not succeed in turning more than half of the securities into cash: they wonld de­ camp from Berkeley ib the night, and put the continent between it and them. Fair­ view would be lost, for Ferrers could not hope to sell it it; the time within which it would be safe to remain. No matter; he would have wealth enough to make an­ other Fain few. if he chose, in a snot where the shadow of tho gallows would not tall upon him. How far Clayton Ferrers’ mother was his confidante in this scheme; whether she was to be tho companion of his flight—indeed, whether she over had a uuilty knowledge of tho poisoning of Mr. Whalley—are things which will probably never be known. Her melancholy fate : which is yet to be spoken of) fills me with comi«s»icn: because she is a woman, I should wish to think that she was but the faithful tool and servant of her son and his coadjutor in the buaihMS of secluding Ed­ son Whalley from the influence of nil others, and that she is guiltless of complicity in the crime; the truth ns to her can not bo known. And now the thread of my narrative is to be taken up again. This chapter of detail and explanation has been necessary; but now the talo will move straight on to its end. One moment I pause to say a need­ ful word of Dr. Benuxnont,£in connection with his anticipated flight with Ferrera. To I both these men flight meant confession, the loss of everything like good name and fame, tho sacrifice of the friendships and associations of long years. To Beaumont it meant more. O, how much more*,. In thnt delightful heme when I first came to Berkeley, he had a beautiful and accomflished wife; little children played at his nee. aud were held up to kiss him good­ night How could he sin, how stain his soul with crime, with the faces of those dear ones ever before him to beckon him away from wrong? I know not; I only know that the demon of drink, the fiend of gaming, the lust of gold hnd conquered all that was good in him, and hurried him on to destruction. CHAPTER III. When consciousness returned to me. I was for some moments unable to realize where I was or what had happened. A dull pain throbbed id my temple; I waa weak and sick from the effects of the blow. Try­ ing to brush the hair from my eyes, I dis­ covered that mv arms had been bound fast behind my bock. 1 attempted to rise, but could not; a cord fastened above my knees confined my legs. I was lying upon some loose hay thrown -town upon a bare floor. Gathering my faculties very slowly, I set myself to work to recall to my mind what had lately happened to me. That curious phenomenon attended me which physicians say, and which my professional experience showed, often occurs when a human being is deprived of consciousness by a severe blow on the head. Everything of recent happening is entirely lost from the mem- tho clew to my own difficulties, I had to begin back with the commencement of the previous day. Ono or two colls that I had made in the forenoon I remembered at once. The storm of the afternoon and evening; my lonely night at mv office; my visitor, my going with him to nis cottage; my meeting with Paulo—these things oc­ curred to me one after another, and gradu­ ally led me up to tho mansion. Bo rapidly trite cm. Present safety could be gained; had the events of the night occurred, and but with the lapse of weeks and months so amazing were they in theaaaelves, that at would come the insinuations of Staple*. first I found myself mentally questioning the reality of the deeth-bed scene, and of though humble, might begin to doubt the my remarkable interview with Dr. Beau tale; circumstance* would be put together; rnont before I wm struck down.

Must I be butchered like a dumb anirpal, and my body conccakul from all eight and search? I wus about to cry out at the top of my weak voice, when a glimering light appeared iu tho distance. It mine nearer and nearer, and presently the faint sound of voices reached we. The light was from a lantern in tbo hand of *Dr. Beaumont, who was muffled in a large cloak. Clayton Ferrera was with him, alto a great burly fellow with a mart repulsive visage. They came and stood within a few feet of me. and the light of the lantern showed mo that I was lyingon the floor of a barn. I kept- silent ana listened, closing my eyes to avoid the dis­ covery that I Jind relumed to conscious­ ness. The lantern wm held close to my' face, and there was a moment's examination of it "Will he come to, do you think?" Tho voice was that of Ferrera. A foot stirred me roughly. I gave a little moan. “Yea. . replied Beaumont "You struck just where I told you to—on the beck part of the head. The some blow over the temple would have killed him instantly. He’s not much hurt; his wits will be dull for a little while, but he’ll come around all right." Then he called out: “Halloo!—are you all ready?” “Yes, sir,” replied another voice. Fer­ rers and Beaumont moved a little way off, aud I heard them talking in a low tone, but could not distinguish their words. Thon I was lifted bodily from the floor and carried a few rods. I felt tho cool air of the night on my cheek, and I was placed inside a car­ riage. Two men got in after me, and the door was dosed. "What’s the time?" asked Beaumont from the seat oppos.te me. ,“A little after two." replied Ferrers from the outride. “You’ll be back to-morrow?" ’"Yes. Drive on, Jake. Slowly, at first; make no noise." I should have expected, after all that had happened, that the vigilance of Hugh Staples would have detected their proceed­ ings, and enabled him to raise an alarm in some quarter that would have made serious trouble for my abductors. I learned long afterward that I had not been" carried out from the mansion before the vicinity bad been thoroughly recornoitered and the const reported clear. Hugh had returned Io bis cottage; exhaustion and the reaction' of excitement had produced their natural effects upon the old and feeble num. He fell into a deep sleep, which iMted till morning, while poor Paula watched and waited. Yet I think that no watchfulness on his part could hove discovered what was going on. A close watch was kept by Fer­ rers and his minions. Hugh could not have left his cottage, after tho decision had been made as to how I was to be disposed of, without being discovered; and then force would have been used; if necessary, to compel him to return to his home and stay (hero. There wns a rear entrance to the barn, from a road that bounded the estate on the west, twenty rods away; nn3 the pre­ sumption is natural that this wns tho way takn for the start, to avoid all possible dauger of observation from the cottage. I lay quietly along the sent where I had been placed, while the carriage rolled on. Not a word was spoken by either of tho meu who sat opposite me, as I could know from an occasional movement. Wo had been on tho road, traveling in profound darkness, for perhaps an hour when I felt n hand laid upon me. Cramped as I was by the fastenings of my arms and legs, and lying in a position ot painful constmint. I had guarded myself against making any ejaculation ot disttees; Lut now. when I felt this hand stealing down my arm. I could not restrain myself, and Enid angrily : "Keep off!" "Ha!—we arc ourself again, 1 perceive." said Beaumont. “Don't fear; I was only trying to feel your pulse; but your voice has saved, me the trouble. Do you feel comfortable?" My strength was hardly enough to answer him; I could not speak without an effort that sent dizzy pangs throuah my poor bead; but his question angered me beyond my power to control myself, and I gave him a bitter reply: “You cause a man to be struck senseless from behind, in the most treacherous and cowardly way; you bind him so that he can­ not stir, put him In a carriage, andjolt him over the road in this condition. Then you have the malignity to ask him if he fuels comfortable. “ "I have a proposition to make to you." rejoined Beaumont. “We are in force enough to defeat any effort you might make to escape, and, in fact, you are in no con­ dition to try such a step: but it is m well to have an understanding with you. , If the cords ore removed from your arms and legs, do you promise to make no disturb­ ance, nor to try to leave the carriage, but to sit quietly on that seat, with this man sitting beside you, and his hand holding your wrist?" "I make no compacts with murderers." He said nothing mare, but I plainly heard his teeth grating with anger. Thu carriage rolled on at a steady rate of progress, perhaps five miles an hour. When daylight came I saw that Beaumont was sitting bolt upright, sleepless, and with face haggard and thoughtful. The man by his side wm the same stolid fellow whom I h.id seen in the stable; his shaggy head was fallen on his breast in sound sleep, and his snoring would have been ludicrous under other eircumstancM. After broad daylight had come, and we had met or passed a wagon and two pedestrians, Beau­ mont observed: “ Yon will understand that I have no fear of the result of any attempt you aught make to attract attention by calling aloud. I give you notice, however, that if you do any such thing, I will have you gagged at once." I did not shout; not because I feared the mg—for it could hardly have made my condition worse—but because the effort would have been too painful. I wus suffer­ ing cruelly from the cords, which now cut into mv flesh, and from the cramps that seemed to attack every muscle of my body; but I would not yield; I would not beg for the loosening of my bonds, nor make any promises. It was rather before noon, as I judged by the short shadows along tho highway that I wm able to see, that I dis­ covered that the carriage had turned from the rood which it had pursued for hours, and was rolling along another which skirt- Crockery Sele. was carried into a.small room, furnished only with a bed-plaoe let into the wall, and a very heavy wooden chair. The floor was bare; the only window wm away up out of reach, nnd grated with iron. I was laid upon the bed, and now the man who. had greeted Beaumont below entered the room nnd closed the door. At a sign from him; the fellow who bad followed the man who J.»wt everything in-the Crockery and Glat/wart line at had brought me up took a sharp knife ■ from his pocket and'cut my bonds. At first I could not stretch out either my legs or arms, so intense was the pain that Highest Cath price'for Butter and Egge. cramped me; I lay helplessly on the bed. “Now*said the smooth-faced man, seat­ ing himself in tho chair by my bed, while the other, at a word from him, stood before the door, “we will try to have an under­ standing. I think I understand your ease, from what your physician has told me, and I judge from your appearance that you can restrain yourself when you wish to.

One cold and cloudy night in the early part of tbc winter of 1862. says a writer in the Grand Army Review, Bill------ was on picket at an outpost near tho little “Brick Church," known to comrades of the Army of the Petomac as “Hartwoods.” He had backed his marc into tbe edge of a piece of -woods, from which ho bad a view of a large ■open field in his front; to his right, at a -abort distance, was a road leading to "Kel­ ley’s Ford” nnd one to Warrenton. In the vicinity of these cross-roads there had been at diveis times whots fired ai our pickets in the night time Ijt unseen persons (gucr^illn*i, which caused our pickets to be more vigilant Hinn in the daylight. Not more than half an hour had elapsed since the -comrade whom Bill had relieved had left and returned to the “reserve,” some half mile distant, wh<*» Bill's ear caught the -sonud of stealthy treading upon the dry twigs and dead leaves directly in tho rear where be was posted. It was a common thing in those days, in that part of the country, for hog* to be seen running at large in and around tho woods, consequently at the first sound of thin treading that reached his can Bill paid little he-ed, thinking it was a hog rooting the leave*. Presently the same noise was heard. At this second interruption his mare pricked up her ears and made nn un­ easy shake of her head, as was her custom ■when on such duty and any strange noise reached her keen eor. At this uneasiness -of his dumb companion Bill stroked ber silky neck to asstire her he wa.* on the alert. Again the noise had ceased, but Bill had mode a knot in his bridle rein and pla< id it ■over the pommel of his satldle, examined his carbine near the hammer, put his hand to his bolster to make sure the levolyerwas in a handy position, and tumuring himself that all wus right ns regards firearms, cau­ tiously peering into the darkness ou all sides in ho]H*s that he might discern the intruder u;>on bis quietness. Again was bean! the mysterious treading ’aonnd! Bill pressed the 'sides of hts ■ marc with his logs and >ho instantly wheeled ■"right about and faced the woods. “Holt! Who oomes there?” Bill called aloud. All was as quiet os tho tomb. There sat Bill facing tho woads^ with a deadly aim of bis carbme in the direction from which the sounds hadeome, feelini’as though he weighed 200 pounds (actual weight 135) and could blow any three •“guerrillas” out of existence. Once more he h-ard those steps so lightly crushing the twigs and leorSB. Click! went the hamxfier of tho carbine. Whir-r-rl whir-r-r! sounded the ru*h of the unseen Indies. Tho mare raised her■self, and struck at vacant space with her /ore feet. Bill felt his hair standing ou end as he grasped the butt of hi* revolver, and -waited the expected attack. The discharge of the carbine had aroused the “reaerve,” and the sound of galloping horses' feet and the clanging of saber* agaiust tho riders’ spurs Bill distinctly heard as the “reserve patrol” drew nearer and nearer to his rescue. He could hear the pickets on his left challenging tho horsemen as they approach ed their po*ta. Presently be heard his nearest comrade inform the sergeant that “Bill had been shot or hv had fired at some d— d guerrilH.” He had faced the mare once again toward the open field, and wa* quietly laughing to himself as ho stroked tho neck of his faith­ ful companion. “Hall! Who eomes there?” Bill was heard to again call forth. “Sergeant with ‘picket patrol!’ ” was the “Dismount, sergeant! Advance and give Che countersign!” Thin order wits obeyed and an explana­ tion made. The patrol was notified to ad­ vance, and when Bill * comrades came to ■where tho sergeant and Bill were they found tiurm April 9, 1863, a force of cavalry was sent under command of General Stanley from Murfreesboro to Franklin.

This lovely ride on tbywater made up for all the hanlridpa on the cars. The sound aet. though it be but a cup of ctdd .wa­ ter given, will not be lost. Each will have its influence and be felt till time shall be no more. Haye you ever thought of the effect, ofttimea of a single word? Drop it pleasantly among a group and it will make all happy, to return to tbeir homes to produce the same effect on many others. A bad word may arouse the indigna­ tion of a whole neighborhood; it may •spread like wild fire to produce a disas­ trous effect, that may be felt all through life, aye, even through an endless eter­ nity. A sharp, cruel word spoken by the wife as the hosoand starts out to his place of business, or field of labor, is like lead upon his heart; it makes his labor a burden and life a bitterness, but a kind, cheerful word as he goes forth to his toil, be it in office, work­ shop or field, how it brightens up every­ thing and sets his heart singing with quiet joy. On the other band let the husband leave the house with a curue on his lipa, and with fault-finding, taunting words; or even with cold indifference; bow the cloud settles down over that home, and sorrow gnaws at the heart-strings of that wife. But a loving, helpful word givqn as he steps out over the threahhold, leaves a halo of peace and happi­ ness behind which some how or other finds its way into the heart of the wife, and as be comes home at eventide he will find a bright spot has been woven in the life’s pattern for that day. Then as no word is lost, be careful how you speak. Speak right, speak kindly. The influence you may exert by a life of kindness—-by kind aud pure words dropped among the young .and old—is incalculable. It will not cease when your bodies lie in the grave, but will be felt wider and wider as the years pass away.

But it was no go. Then the “cavalry” charged with the argu­ ment that they all three were of the “comflrish,” aud by virtue of rank and. existing orders allowed to paw beyond the lines without question. But the Sergeant stood firmly “intrenched” behind his or­ ders, saving: “Gentlemen, I am to p««-J oCcera, but I must have reason to beltevy that thime desiring to piss are bona jUt officers. This 1 cannot determine from your dress, w* yon are all rigged in citi­ zen*' togg« rv. Your bones, as I see. wear the regulation outfit for officers, but this i* not conclusive evidence of your rank as such." Therefore the “battery" unlimbered, and brought Am guns to bear upon the “works" of the hapless Sergeant. “I don t know, said Lieutenant Z------ . “bow you are to be convinced that we arc officers of rank, aud are ‘to be respected and obeyed as such.’ unless you take into consideration our general appearance, and my statement that wc all three are about half drunk!" “I surrender," said ths Sergeant; “this is satisfactory evidence of the rank you claim. Paw on. gentlemen. Good-night, end pleasant dreams to you-" But, noto race, said to the sentinel, as they “rode to the front," “I don't care a penny if they get ‘token in.’ If they do. some Johnny will git enough ‘store clothes' to set hi*n up in buiiness.” But they returned to camp in high glee. The story'of "bow they got by the guards” was too good to keep. They “told it on" themselves with the greatest gusto.—James G. Benndt, in Chicago Ledger.

Our outride post was surprised by four companies of men under the command of Major Harry Gilmore, while they were cooking their breakfast* and grooming their horwe—a thing, by lhe way. that was never again done by our boys when on outside of Luray, and on a bridge near the tan. nery. I h<-.vd tlie rumpus, firing, etc., iu the'adrance, and soon tao or three loose honu-s came in on the run.

New York Engineers, were sta­ tioned near Fairmount, West Virginia, on the Monongahela River, with a jvontoou bridge, the bridge ot the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad having been destroyed by Confederate trxxi|>* while on a raid. While there ihe write? and a comrade named Ben­ jamin were passing tbe home of a rebel sympathizer, and, hearing horse* in the b.iru. we naturally ikuowing they had none of their own* wanted to know what it meant. We looked in and saw two cavalry home*, saddled ami bridled, and thought something waa wrong, for no one who knew the family would put burses belonging to (lie Union army in the born and leave them 'here, for there would l>e danger to tbe horses. After a little time two men dressed in onr uniform earn* to'lhe bam. and is they came iu sight of us. «e stood in the bam door, they each pulled a nary re­ volver from their boot-leg* and stuck them in their belts, then came ou after their horses. We inquired where they were from, and what their business was. They snid they belonged to a Union cavah^* regiment, up in the mountain*, and were there to *•• some old acquaintances. We did not believe them, nnd soon after found thev- were rebel spies. Thev mounted their horses, raid ns they started off at a rapid gait they looked back, nnd one of them waved hi* hand and said, “Good-by, Yanka," and soon they were out, of sight. And now comes the rem irkable part of the story. In the summer of 1885 there was a reunion and camp-fire in Au­ burn, N. Y.« and a goodly number of the Confederate soldier* were there by invita­ tion. While there one of tbe Southern vets came to Benjamin and asked him if be wasn’t in West Virginia in '63, and with a bo-it bridge, and if he didn't remember two cavalrymen taking horses ont of u barn while be and another soldier stood in the stable door. Benjamin said he did, and if we had bad our guns they wouldn't have got off. The Southern vet said. “lam one of those cavalrymen, and though twenty-two years have passed I knew you, and if I could see your otil pard I'd know him. loo. But you wouldn't have taken us if you had had your guns, for we had our eyes open; we would have left th? horses aud gone without them." D. B. Sayre. Hadley, Mich.

I bad a wife, children, and a little property, all represented in my schooner aud ns e’ffa-ts. When the war began I was impor­ tuned again and n^nin to volunteer, but, being at heart loyal, I refused.

An unconditional enlistment was nt once demanded. This I refused. My schooner a a* then confiscated, with $150 in gold, and myself placed under ar­ rest and imprisoned in Williamsburg. There I was confined forty-two days wiihout a hearing, in a cell next to two negroes. “Wien we had obtained the bearings of onr prinon (myself and the negroes) we de­ cided to dig under the wall nnd escape. I walked twelve mile* that night to Beckey Simpson's, a Union woman, and an old ac­ quaintance.

Albion No. 10 Spring-Tooth Cultivator “Jimmie the Drummer Boy. Early in Inly of '63 occurred tbe battle ot Gettysburg. Two or three days after the bottle, on the arrival at the government hospital of it number of wounded from the battlefield, two lady friends concluded-to visit the hospital to see if any of their loved ones, known to have been in the battle, were among them. In passing through the words one lady noticed a pair of eye* following her. Going across to the cot, she beheld a beantiful boy about six­ teen years; brown, curling hair encircled his brow, and his large, intelligent eyes were of tbe deepest blue; his right limb was wrapped in bandages. He smiled os she came np. “Aren’t you a sister of Jimmie Carlton, up • in liliwi*?" “Why. what makes yon think so?" she asks. “Oh! I know you are. because you look like him. Do not l>e al irmed; Jinimio is *afe. I saw him after the buttle, a* they, carried me fiom the field. I like Jimmie, he was always good to me.” ‘What is your name?” naked the lady. “Jimmie Wolf," he replied cheerfully. “How came you to be *o 'fearfully wounded?" “They were about to get onr flag, and picking up a fallen comrade's gun 1 fired, when a huge Confederate struck me down. Do you think he hod a bjy at home that he had do more heart than that '*" “I do not know Jiiumie; it waa very cruel. Where is your mother?” His lip* quivered, “I have none, ma'am. No one on this wide earth to care for me. God has taken them all, father, mother and aister. I have only my country left,and she has crippled me." And the brave boy's courage failed as the tears coursed dowu hia cheek. The lady threw her arm* around him and mingled her tears with bis. "I will be your mother, my darling bov;" nnd calling the surgeon in charge she bogged hjm to let her remove him to her own home. Hr gave hi* consent as soon as Jimmie could stand it. But in two or three days tbe limb had a**umed a condition that called for amputation above the knee. In the meantime a wealthy childless gentle­ man from Covington. Keutni lH', had lie., eome interested in him and proposed to adopt him. Jimmie was joyful over the expected change. When the surgeon was ready to amputate tlie limb, he tent for Jimmie’s two friend*. They administered chloroform. But brave, beautiful Jimmie never rallied; bis soul had been adopted into God's kingdom. “Rr'iir." A Fine Ewer and Basin, Tea Caps and Saacers, ver set, with the Seeder attachment, embraces four necessary agricul­ tural tools in one, viz: Corn Cultivator, Field Cultivator, Spring Tooth Harrow, First-Class Seeder, and has many points of superiority over any other machine manufactured. grew wild.in the woodlands and pantunloti, for which he found a market in the village* of Malden and Chatham. When only twelve years of age he displnved his ingenuity and enteqirioe by building a smoke-house and wood-house for hia father, and both were constructed on plana that won for him a great deal of praise for their neatnew nnd convenience. Before he was fourteen be did not hesitate to shoulder his rake and follow the fastest Ktin cradle:* or reaping machines in the neat fields. On one occasion he was given one of four comers in a large field of wheat and told that he must keep his way clear of sheaves down the aides and across the enda with three crack rakers and bind­ ers stationed in the same war. The day wa* terribly warm and the work was pushed along with a rush, but Maurice kept hi* ground clear and never fiinched. “I’m l«ound to keep my end up," he told hia fellow workmen, “no matter what it cwt* me." , Thia indomitable spirit characterized all he undertook and still marks hia. action*. No work that hia hands found to do waa considered beneath hia dignity. In 184'4 he entered the Christtan Brothers' school in Troy, nnd with tbe money he bad saved from Industry about hia boyhood home paid for one year’* tuition. In 1 when 18 years of age, he went to New York, determined to make a name and a fortune for (ntnself. He obtained employ- : ment in a grocery store in Williamsburg, but soon liecnme dissatisfied with this, ns he saw no future ahead of him there. He at length secured a situation in the Novelty iron work*, and remained there only a week, when he left to become a book-keeper wiih Guy C. Hotchkiss 4 Son at a salary of $8 per week.' In a short time hia salary was raised ta $10 in consideration of hia atten­ tiveness to business. In August, 1864, the junior member of tbe firnvttied and tbe sole management of the business fell on Maurice. Though still bit a boy, yet with characteristic indomit­ able pluck and fidelity, he undertook and ■ucceaafully bore all the resjionaibility thus suddenly thrust upon him, and conducted the whole business alone until about two years afterward, when Mr. Charles H. Field, far twenty years a book-keeper for J. B. W. W. Cornell, bought an interest in the firm. About this time Mr. Hotch kiss, in recognition of the unflagging in­ dustry and business sagacity of Mh Hyna, gave him a small interest in the business. Ilia talents aa a business man proved so valuable that on May 1,1870, he was admited to the firm as an equal partner. All this time Mr. Flynn lived in Brooklyn, and during hia leisure hours be acquired a knowledge of the French, German, and Spanish languages and also took lessons in mechanical drawing and elocution and be­ gan to dabble a little in politics. His political experience extended only over two terms in the Legislature, but it waa sufficient to bare inculcated in him a taste for politics which has only grown keener with years. Before Mr. Flynn had any political prominence the firm of Guy C. Hotchkiss, Field <fc Company had city contracts in New York and Brooklyn ag­ gregating $227,561.53. Since January, 1880, the records show the contracts for the Department of Public Works have ag­ gregated $328,021.21. In New York be wined tbe County De­ mocracy and was a bosom friend of the Isle Hubert O. Thompson. His advice and portion, and be is said to have yielded up both very readily. He was known as the rich contractor aa well an tha political man­ ager and alter ego of H. O. T. Flynn is very domestic in hia habits, and by no means convivial in his dispo­ sition. He move* in the best circles of society, and, with bis wife, who is a charming lady, is a great social favorite. A year ago last spring be visited France with Mrs. Flynn, carrying letter* of introduction from President Cleveland to President Grevy, and was a social Hon daring his stay in Pari*. In his daily life Mr. flynn is reticent and a good list­ ener.

Will you take a passen­ ger back, to oblige mo?" “Ay, ay—if yon can got him aboard of us." The tug came carefully up to the huge side of the steamer, rising toward her and falling away alternately with tho motion of the great billows. Clutching Albert's hand, and with his words of encouragement in ray ear. I went down the ladder.

My spirits rose, my strength seamed to return; when 1 stepped on the pier my old courage came hack to me. Only long enough I wait­ ed to make myeelf presentable with the help of the barber, and to tako a little re­ freshment; and a west-bound train of the same night bore mo away toward where love and duty beckoned. My abductors could not have gained more than fifteen hours start on their return. Fly faster, then, ye wings of steam with sinews of iron! Fly with me, that love may be rewarded, that justice may be done! The tide has turned at last; the day of wrong, of outrage, of crime has passed; it is my innings now!

In due course of railroad travel, stopping neither for sleep, nor rest, nor food, I should have retched Berkeley upon the twentieth day of September, ten days after I had been entrapped and carried awav by force. Tbe delays that I encountered, which time alone' coud overcome, were long and serious. A frightful collision which wrecked both trains. and made a loug Ms; of kil ©d and mangled, detained me full twenty-four hours. I smothered my in»- generous, and busied myself during that interval in helping to care for the maimed ride me had ost a young man. richly dmsod. with diamonds upon bin hands and in his sbirt-fr»Dt gay, careless and bappj- H* WM struck instantly dead by n flying iron rod whan th® crash occurred, fterosal wan behind »4 a moUMr, bolding her prattling infant in h< r arms; tbe babe wax killed, tbe mother 1 orrib y mangled. These ate but two of ths samples of tho ruin wrought by tho accidsHt, which is recalled to-day with a shudder as the worst that ever happened go the rood. And I w»- spared, without s scratch or trace at injury; spared for love and happtnoM yet to be. Why should I not be patient? Further on, a railway-bridge over a wide CHAI TER VLL Anxiously did I reflect upon this question, and my answer, some miles before Berkeley station was reached, was in the negative. I could not strike in the dark. I could not! openly comb it against these men. powerful, and intrenched in wealth and public opin­ ion u I knew they were. It was imporible to any what influence, what fabrication they had not brought to bear to crush me. And bo I must not suddenly appear in Berkeley. I dared not Rather must I reconnoiter the ground, and ascertain what'had happened in the village and at Faisriew since my ab­ duction. '1 hen I should know what to do; then I could tell where and when to strike, As the train drew near to Berkeley, with these thoughts in my mind that I have spoken of, 1 feared to meet and to see people of the place whom I knew. As station after station was passed, some whom I knew entered the tnun; I drew my hat down over my eyes, shrank to tho corner of the erat, and thus avoided them. Two miles entente of Berkeley, there wm a lit­ tle cross-roads station, where- the train stopped. Hero I got off; tend uyoidingji a few others' who also stopped there. I struck through tho woods .and fields in tbe directibn of Fairwiew. z Tbe .twenty-third of September, at five o'clock in the* afternoon. The dates that I have thus far given are burned sharply iu my memory; among them there is none more vivid than thia. It was the day when my fate was to be determined! Either I was awaited l>y love, by hnppinees.' and by the justice that I should bring down with iron hand upon the malefactors, or I was to be driven forth from this commun­ ity, dishonored and disgraced. Which should it be? Cautiously I approached Fairview, enter­ ing the grounds from tbe rear. Through ibe woods and across the fields, as tho sun skulking—syo. skulking, if that will best express it!—from one cover to another, to escape observation. To move openly waa to challeuge tha observation of Clayton Ferrers ond his minions; and I had neither the sirength nor the disposition for a phy­ sical contest with them novr. To see Paula again, to assure rayself that she was yet mine, whatever else might happen to me. was uppermost iu wy thoughts. And so, without discovery, I approached the cottage. Its doors were locked; they gave no answer to ray knocks. Tho window* were uncur­ tained; I looked through them, and saw that the house was uninhabited. 1 turned from the spot sick at b®«rt What had hoppened to Paula and her faith­ ful friends—who could tell? Still avoiding observation, I made my wny to the main road, which ran from Berkeley past the front of the Fairview grounds. I would not show myself—not yet; I hid myself behind the tall hedge, nnd waited for people to pass, from whom I might seek information. I saw several |>ass in carriages, on horeel ack. or on foot, whom I knew, or whose faces were familiar to me. I would not apply to them; I let them pass by. At last came a country boor on foot, whistling and singing as he walked; and I nalliod out to meet Lira. Bo abruptly did I stand iu his way, that he started back as though he had encountered a ghost “Can you tell me." I asked, “where Hugh Staples lives now?" "Who—old Hugh, as used to live in the cottage over yonder?' • “Yes. Where is he?" “Wby. you see, the new master over there, Mr. Ferrera, turned him out. and he had to go summers else. He's living now in that little house yonder, on t'other side tbe road; the third, as you see, from here." I th inked him. and went on. I saw the goal of my journey before me; five minutes must pass before I could know of the safety of her 1 loved. I stopped, turned, and hailed the man. as his awkward figure was disappearing up the road. “Hilloa! Do you know if there is a young woman stopping in Mr. St spies' family now?" “Her that is sick? O, yes. She’e been powerful bad, they say." 1 waited to hear no more; I flew down the road to the house that was pointed out, and rapped at the door. Mrx. Staples answered my summons, with her finger ou her lip; she recognised me, seized my band and buret into tears. “Paula?" It was all that I could say. She under­ stood mo, and mot.oned me to enter. “Sbo has been sick—very wick," she answered. "She is better now. Her senses have returned to her, but ehe sleeps most of tbe time; but she must sleep. Dr. Gray says, if she to to win back her health. Come with rae, but be silent" She ltd me through the little, humble sitting room, into the sv k chamber. There ►he by. my beloved, with dosed eyes, beau­ tiful iu her weakndn and pallor as a marble statue. I sat by her bedside; I gazed with inexpressible taptaae on her face. One fair, slender hand bad strayed outside tbo coverlet; I yielded to tbe impulse, and took it in my own. Her glorious eyew suddenly unclosed; they saw ms; a look of wonder­ ful tenderness filled them. She bid her hand upon my arm; she beckoned me down to her; she clasped her arms about my "Paula—deer Pauls!" “Harvey--safe, thank God!"

So. with a kiss upon her i.-ps, I |>ermilted myself to be led away from the sick chanit^r into the sitting room.

My cheeks burned, my-heart throbbed madly; I walked the floor' for some moments be­ fore I oould control myeelf. “They are both here yet. are they. Hugh?" “Who—Mr. Ferrero and Dr. Beaumont? Yes, sir: I saw them both to-day, riding out to Fairview together." “Will you coin-* wit'i me. Hugh?

We entered the village, and as wo came npon the lighted streets 1 drew my hat down over my eyes and pulled up my coat-coHat to escape tha glances of tbe passers. My companion and I were silent; 1 did not express my thoughts to him; but I said to myself—there shall not long be any necessity for you to hide yourself in Berkeley. Patience!—the boor of deliverance and punishment draws nigh. I rang the bell at the front door of Mr. Waner's residence, and wm informed that he was at home. We were ushered into the sitting-room, and the girl speedily returned with tbe word that Mr. Warner wm very much engaged, and he would like to know the nature of ourbusineso. To which I returned the answer that we wished to see tbe prosecuting attorney on tbo most im­ perative business connected with bin duties i>« a public officer. We were admitted to the library, where wo found the lawyer at a table littered with books and papers, laboring by tho light of a Urge bmp. He continned his work for a few minute* after our entrance, while we stood by tbo table; and then, suddenly looking up. he saw us, nud gave a long store, eccompauied by a low whistle. “Well! I am highly honored.” was his salutation. “Doctor Minton, I believe; and—old Staples.

Hardships of Student Life. The privations which human beings will endure for the purpose of pursu­ ing some beloved occupation are often extraordinary. Some discussion has recently taken place in regard to the hardships voluntarily encountered by German students, in order that they may carry on their intellectual labors. A Scotch writer, however, gives a list of instances which tend to prove that his countrymen are willing to suffer great extremity for learning. He mentions one young man who, though of fine mxnncni and aristocrat­ ic appearance, dined but three times a week, and then upon a hot twopenny pie. On off days ho sated his hunger with dry bread. Another has a curious method of studying. He spread out nis books where the hearth rug would naturally have been, and lay ther^ prone, learn­ ing his task by the light of a fire made from roots of decayed trees, which he had dug in a wood near Edinburgh, and carried to his lodgings. It was quite common for students to go without tire; in winter time they studied in bed while tho daylight lasted, and then, when it became too dark for reading, thought over and thus memo­ rized their les’ons. Three prominent and successful Scotchmen of the present day have be­ hind them a hard experience,which, no doubt they recall with pleasure. They lived together for at least a year at Ab­ erdeen University, in a room which contained but one bed. It was not a very large bed, and could not be per­ suaded to hold three persons at once; so two worked while the other slept, and when they went to bad, he arose. At Edinburgh were two interesting etudente, whose ways were for a time a riddle. The one glided along tbe coridors to his seat, bolding his class­ book straight out before him. After a time it was learned that he had been a hotel waiter; this vocation he pursued facriug the summer mouths, and re­ amed to his studies in winter. He was jover unite able to forget his calling, and wnen he was suddenly aroused from .reverie, would cry, “Coming, sir ! doming.” a The other mysterious student was never seen outside the class-room except at full gallop. He ran into his seat for recitation, and after it waa over dashed away like a race-horae. It finally transpired that he kept a small stationery shop at some distance cloeo bin place of business in order to recite his lesauns. Prof. Blakie mentions the case of a young man who bred dur.ng an entire college aeesion on :ed herrings and one barrel of potatoes, which he had brought fr m home. He fina ly suc­ cumbed to the weakness brought on by insulheient food.

Si. Mai. and Drops the Land Purchase Schema . Mr. Gbidstunn's brochure on the Irish •question hu been given to the public. It ■contains fifty-eight pages, nud is similar to Lis pamphlet on the Bulgarian atrocities. At the outset Mr. Gladstone compares it with lbs apolagy he wrote on Lis cUamre of -attitude rrjfiudiug the Irish church. "Bat,” he coauaur*. “tn tbe present case I have no such change to indicate, but h»Vc only to point out the mode in which my language and conduct were governed hy nuifosmity •of principle. 1 have simply followed the various fitagvs by which tbe great question -of autonomy far Ireland has been brought •to the stage of ripeuees fur practical legis­ lation." Tbe brocbu:.- is under two bond-*. - The first is the history of an ide* in which Mr. -Gladstone summarizes the following con­ ditions under which alone, in his view, it would become possible: First, the abandonxnent of tbe hope that Parliament could serve as n paMmbhr legislative instrument for Ireland: secund, the unequivocal and •constitutional demnud of the Irish mem­ bers; third, the possibility of dealing with Scotland in a similar Way in circumstances .-of ecjual and equally clear desire. Reply­ ing to the ch»ir;je of Hartington aud Cham­ berlain that he had conceived the home­ rule idea precipitately and had concealed it unduly, he denies that it in the duty of a minister to make known, even to his col­ leagues, every idea forming in his mind, ■which would tend to eoufuse and ret rd, instead of aid business. He continues: “What is true is that I bad not publicly and in principle coiTlivmueil it, and alao ‘that I had mentally considered it; but I bad neither adopted nor rejected it, and for the very simple reaoop that it was not prepared for n<lop(ion,or rejection." ' Mr. Gladstone •then gwes ou io point out that daring all the many reais of his public life tbe alternatives were repeal on tbe one hand, and on the •other the n lief of Ireland from grievances. It was not poasible, he -nays, at that time -Wo prognosticate how, in a abort time, Par­ liament would stumble end almost writhe under its constantly accumulating burdens, ■or to pronounce that it would eventually Erove incuiaible of meeting the wants of viand. Evidently there was a period when Iri«h patrio hm, as represented by O'Connell, looked favorable upon thia alter­ native policy and had no fixed conclusion 4W to tho absolute necessity for homo government, and seemed to allow that measures founded in justice to Ireland might {KiMkibly suffice to meet the necessity It was as early as 1871, Mr. Gladstone says, that he look the first step toward plac­ ing the controversy on its true basic. Ho ■opposed Mr. Butt's scheme because the alternative described in the last paragraph find not been exhausted, but even at that time be did not dose the door against n recognition of the question in n different •state of things; for. instead of denouncing the idea of home rule an one iu its essence •destructive of the unity of the empire, in the following word* he accepted tho aasuranoe given to the contrary: “Let me do the promoters of this movement the fullest jus­ tice. always speaking under the conviction, as they most emphatically declare, and no I fully believe them, that the turion of these kingdoms under her Majesty is to be maintame.I, but that Parliament is to be • broken up." Similarly in 1874 Mr. Gladstone accepted -without qualification the principle that home rule had no necessary connection with separation. When -Mr. Shaw suc­ ceeded to fhe home rule lendership in 1880 Mr. Gladstone hailed his speech as show­ ing an evident disposition to respect the functions of the House of Commons and tbe spirit of the constitution. Ln 1881, at the Guildhall, be announced that be would hail with satisfaction and delight any meas­ ure of local government for Ireland. • Com­ ing to the electoral Campaign of 1883, Mr. -Gladstone siya his great object waa to do nothing to hinder the prosecution of the question by the Tories, but to use huTbeat •efforts io nnpr- sa the public mind with the importance and urgency of the qnmtiau. It was in this spirit that his Midlothian nddraisi was written. The Irish question was severed from the gen nil subject of local government, aud it was pointed out that it would probably throw into tho shade all o her important measure* which were ripe. Once ripe, the time for action hail come. Jnai as if it had b?cu a cornfield, w<- were •not to wait until it was overripe. The heal tog of inveterate sores would only become more dittiruft; the growth of budding hopes more liable lobe chocked and paralyzed by the froets of politics. For England in her weft arm-chair, all security, consideration, with ad on-.nnienU interposed, ns it had been usual, so also would it hare been ■comfortable. But for Ireland, in her leaky cabin, it waa of consequence to stop out tbo weather. the Ikssook ot the elections. Mr. Gladstone begins drawmv certain Jessens from tbe ■elections aa they affect the Liberal party. In the course of some full calculations he -estimates tbe low* to the Liberal party from the Unionist sc'dsm at two-sevenths of the whole, but this fradinn is distributed, bo pee: a. but n<X mom than one-twentieth of the Liberal workingmen. Mr. Gladstone -draw* the final conclusion that at the find moment Liberalism is again united it Lope in Luc abatement that han already ir.L.n hIm in tko Tnrv nnnAsifin., daring which parliament was to grant special pow­ ers for firm government in Ireland, and at division runs aM through tbe English natum in her favor; that lhr.c |> u,it through­ out the land a |mrf*h or village where there an: not hearts beating in untaon with her heart; where there a^uot minds r&rnsetly bent on the acknow®tomcnt and perma­ nent establialmicut claims to na­ tional existent s. Under these happy ciroumstanovs, what is there, Mr. Gladstone R<*« on to ask. in sepiratiou that would tend to make it advantageous to Ireland? As an island with many hundreds of miles of coast, with a weak marine nnd a tieople far more military than nautical m its habite, of amnll population, and limited in her present resources, why Aould she expow hen -If to the risks of invasion nnd to tbq certainty of an enor­ mous cost in the creation nnd maintenance of n navy for defense, rather than remain under the shield of the greatest maritime power in the,world, bound by every con­ sideration of honor and intent to gua.d her? Why should she ba supposed desirous to forego the advantage of absolute com­ munity of trade with the greatest of all commeroial countries, to become an alien to the market which consumes, say, ninetenths of her produce, and instead of using tho broad and universal paths of enter­ prise now ojien to her to carve out for her­ self naw and narrow ways as a third-rate stale? , Mr. Gladstone next deals with the pur­ chase and sale of land in Ireland, and at tbo outset acknowledges that tho most powerful agent in about‘ the fle­ feat of the Government aversion to the laud bill. The 8 the two bills; put to whosb benefit It was in al great part de­ signed, having been d.Zdly to both, he thinks it his duty explicitlv to acknowl­ edge that the scutenco which has gone forth for the severance of the two measures is irresistiable. and that the twinship, which has been for the time diBoslrous to the hopes of Ireland, exists no longer. At the same time he hopes the partnership be­ tween the enemies of homo rule and the land bill, witicb brought about thia result, mav now be dissolved. Mr. Gladstone next discusses the conserv­ ative character of homo rule for Ireland. It may reasonably Itvy claim, he holds, to conservative favor, for it is especially founded on regard for history and traditions, and it aims in the main at restoring, not altering, the empire. Au intermediate authority set between the central power nnd the subject, ho points out, is u contrivance favorable to.both, and it give!, a domestic aspect to commands which, when procoedmg from a remote source, want their best passport to acceptance. He then proceeds to consider to which party the work is reserved. lie does not go be'yond the expression of an undoubted belief that a measure of self-government not less extensive than the proposal of 1866 will l>e ultmotely carried. “Nor is it for me'," he Bays, "to conjecture whether in thia, ns in so many other cases, tbe enemies of the measure are the persons designed finally 'o guide its triumphant procession to the capital." In conclusion Mr. Gladstone says: "If I am not egregiously wrong in all that has been said, Ireland Las now lying before her a broad and even way in which to" walk to the consummation of her wishes. Before her eyes is opened that same jmth of con­ stitutional and peaceful action, of steady, free, aud full dGcussioii, which has Jed Eugland and Sc- tland to the achievement of ail their pacitia triumphs." COERCION IN IKK LAND. ■Special cablegram to the Chicago Daily News.] In an interview I had with Mr. Sexton, M. I’., he said, concerning the appoint­ ment of Sir Redvt rs Muller: “I think it is intended to pave the way fur coercion in Ireland enforced by a military administra­ tion." "Will noi a coercion act bo needed be­ fore ho can do hi< work thoroughly?" “Certainly. I believe Parliament will be summoned again to November for the pur­ pose of parsing a stringent coercion act. Buller's proceeding in Kerry will very likely furnish a plausible excuse for applying for such a measure. Meanwhile, should he. dunng^he prehnimnry operation, do ain violence to the constitution by overstepping the law, and treat moonlighters, as has been threatened, as though they were in rebellion, bearing anus against the crown, Parliament will bo asked to paw an in­ demnity act in his favor. This will bo a short measure, one clnu'«e probably freeing him from Uie penalties which his conduct would otherwise entail, it would be following tbo precedent adopted pre­ vious to the rebellion of 17U8 to tbe case of Lord Carhampton, who was sent to Ireland as military administrator, and who distinguished himself by practicing what he himself styled ‘violenceontaide the law.' This waa one of tho methods by which the Irish people of that time were 'exasperated into insurrection. Gen.

They intend, they said, m solving the Irish question, to utilize those officials who had had experience in soiving similar problems in other ooontrios. All the exp-rience Buller has ever had 1ms been as a soldier, and his chief distinction was won among the savage tribes of Zu Inland, against whom he exercised peculiar in­ humanity. Judging from bis experience, therefore, he goes to Ireland us th- best ex­ ponent of Lord Salisbury's policy of gov­ erning Ireland as ana ion of Hottentots." “What effect will the coercion regim? have upon the people of Ireland?" "It won't affect them very much. They are now too well skilled in the art of rcMitiag and oulwitt.Bg coercion. Besides, their couree is now everywhere under­ stood, aud they have the sympathy of tbe whole world with them. The gre-taitt land boa made tbrir cause its own." "How will th* coercion pofiey operate upon the government?"

About nine o'clock one night in October, IbGl, not long after the battle of Cedar Creek, we were startled by the bugle at beadquarters calling “boots and saddles!” In twenty minutes from the Mounding of tho call wo were in our saddles and leaving camp in a southeasterly direction, without the least idea of where we were going or what we were going to do. When I say we, I mean the rank and file; of course the officers knew. About a mile from camp we halted, end after a short delay were joined by the balance of our brigade—the Eighth New Y'ork nnd Twelfth Pcunsylvania Cavalry. All night we rode steadily forward,'not ■topping until about an hour after daylight, when wo halted long enough to give our bows a httle corn and boil coffee for our­ selves; then into the saddle and forward again. By this time we. had learned that our destination was Moorefield, in the Lu­ ray Valley, aud our errand the surpriKe of Rosser's cavalry-camp at that place. About noon we came to Brock's Gap. where we were to cross the Shenandoah Mountains. Soon after reaching the summit of the pass our scouts encountered half a dozen bush­ whackers, one of whom escaped, thus destroying nearly all hope of our being able to surprise their camp; but we puahed on the faster until about three o'clock in tbo afternoon, when we came in sight of Moorefield, but only clouds of smoko showed where the rebel comp Lad been. Not daring delay to remove their stores, they had set fire to them and taken to the mountains. We drew up on a level plain a short distance from the town, and were informed that we abohlil remain a day or two to rest our horses after our forced march. When.a regiment b halted in the enemy's country, the first thought of the boys is of something good to out; some­ thing for a change from salt pork and hard­ tack. It was no wonder, therefore, when n drove of hogs came strolling and grunting past, that our boys were seized with a strong desire to inake their more intimate acquaintance. As we were not allowed to use our ammunition for sueh purposes, we tried a little saber exercise on our visitors. Now imagine twenty-five or thirty men in hot pursuit of a hog. every man doing his best to cripple the unfortunate animal by a blow tram his saber—the hogs grunting, squealing, tacking, and turning—thev were just in good running order, those of the men not engaged in the pursuit cheering on those who w. re—and you have the scene. Sometimes a hog would make a short turn and dart between the iega of his would-be captor, causing him t® perform evolutions not hid down in any tactics. I rememta r that one of the b-ya in my company caught a hog by the hind leg. under the impres­ sion that he could bold him: hut after be­ ing dragged full length through the mud fur several rods nt the rate of forty miles an hour, com-laded that he didn't core for fresh pork in that wav. The owner of the hogs was an old lady, of the extreme seoesaion strijie. living just hi the edge oi the town, and the next morn­ ing she came to our Colonel, boiling over with wrath against the “nasty Yankees who would rob a poor old woman of her lavt bog," and demauGing pay fur said hogs, in terms more forcible than elegant Colonel Reed, of course, expfessed bis deep sym- thry wouldn't do such a thing.

She had been io the Colonel of Tho last' confere rice between Jefferson Davis nnd bis chieftains, with the great chieftains left out, is thus graphically de­ scribed in the Ifirouac by General Duke; At Abbeville. S. C.. Mr. Davis held a conference with the officers in command of the troops compritdug his escort, which he himself characterized ns a council of war, and which I may bo justified, therefore, in so designating. It was. j>erhnps, the last Confederate council ot war held east of the Mississippi River, certainly the last in which Mr. Davis participated. We had gone into camp in tho vicinity of the little town. and. although becoming quite anxious to understand what was go­ ing to bo done, we'wero expecting no im­ mediate solation of the problem. We were all convinced that the test we could hope and do was to get Mr. Davis safely out of the country, aud then obtain such terms as bail been given General Johnston's army, or. failing in that, make tho liest of our way to the trans-Missuurippi. The five brigade commanders each re­ ceived an order notifying him to attend at the private residence' iu Abbeville where Mr. Davis had made his hoadqunrtera. about four o'clock of that afternoon. We assembled promptly at the hour indicated, aud were shown into a room where we found Mr. Davis and Generals Breckin­ ridge ond Bragg. No one else wm present. I had never seen Mr. Davis look better or show to better advantage. He seemed in excellent spirits and humor, and the union of dignity, graceful affability, and decision which made his manner usually so striking waw very marked in hts reception of us. After some conversation of a general na­ ture, he announced the purpose widen had induced him to call us together. “It is time," he. said, “that we adopt some definite plan upon which the further prosecution of our struggle shall l>e con­ ducted. I have summoued yea for conKiiltation. I feel that I ought to do noth­ ing now without the advice of my military chiefs." He smiled rather ftrchly as he used this expression, and we ceuld not help thinking that such a term addressed to a handful of brigadiers, commanding altogether barely three thousand men, bf one who so recent­ ly had been the master of legions, wns a pleasantry, yet he said it in a way that made It a compliment. After we had each given, at his request, a statement of the equipniout and condition of our respective commands, Mr. Davis proceeded to declare his conviction that the cause was not lost any more than hope of American liberty was gone amid the sorest trials nnd most disheartening reverses of the revolutionary struggle; but that energy, courage, and constancy might yet save ail. “Even," be said, “if the troops now with mo be all that I can for the present rely on, three thousand brave men are enough for a nucleus around which the whole people will rally when the panic which nowaffiiets them has passed away.” He then linked that we should make such suggestions in regard to the future conduct of the war as we (teemed advisable. We looked at each other in amazement and with a feeling a little akin to trepida­ tion, fur wo hardly knew how we should give expression to views so diametrically ojiposod to those he hail uttered os we en­ tertained. Our respect for Mr. Davis ap­ proached veneration,' and, notwithstanding the total dissent we felt and were obliged to announce to the programme he had indi­ cated, tluit respect was rather increased than diminished by what he had said. We recognized that his high and dauntless spirit abhorred submission, not from per­ sonal considerations so much as because of the patriotic love he bore his cause ahd people. I do not remember who spoke first, but we each expressed the same opinion. We told him frankly that the events of the last few days had removed from our minds all idea or hope that a prolongation of the con­ test was possible. The people were not panic-stricken, but broken down and worn out after every ef­ fort at resistance hod been exhausted. We said that an atteiftpt to continue the war, after all means of supporting w arfare were gone, would be a cruel injriHtice to the peo­ ple of the South. We would be compelled to live on a country already imnovenshed, and would invite its further devastation. We urged that we would be doing a greal wrong to our mon if we peftraaded them to such a course; that if they persisted in a conflict so hopeless, they would be declared and treated as brigands, and would forfeit all chance of return.ng to their homes. He asked why, then, were we still in the field? We answered that we were desirous of affording him an opportunity of escaping the degradation of caplure, and perhaps a fate which would be direr te the people than even to himself, in btill more embit­ tering the exasperated feeling between the North and South. We said.ihat we would ask onr men to follow u« until his safety was assured, and would risk them in bartie for that punraee, but would not lire and her shot in an effort to continue hoatilitiea. He declared, abruptly, that ho would listen to no suggestion which regarded only hia own safety.

I think their recollection of thb somewhat remarkable occurrence will agree with mine; , Generals Breckinridge and Bragg took no part in the discusKion.- Both, however, after Mr. Davis retired, assured uh of their hearty approval of the position we- had taken. They had forborne to s.y aurthfag, because not immediately commanding the troops, and not supjiosed, therefore, to know their scn’imentK sowell as we did.

I -was consequently made Marshal of thu District of Columbia. During all my dose acquaintance with the two m'ra, I never knew them to have a qnarreL The only point on which I ever knew them to differ was over Lincoin’s large-hearted—but,' in Davis’ opinion, sometimes misguided—toleration and charity. I remember one occasion on which Davia brought this out i& an amusing manner. • Lincoln had appointed to an office a man who was his political enomy, and who had done ,him a positive injury. To Dta. is’ remonstrance, Lincoln, with his nover-failing largo-heortodneas, re­ sponded : “Ye*, I know he is my enemy, but you know I never can think of these things.” “Lincoln," said Davis, "you never will be worth a damn until you learn to hate.” ' Davis, himself, was far from being a malignant man, bat ho was like other men. Lincoln wm, in this respect, almost godlike. ■ I remember at another time, when Davis was again making the same com­ plaint, Lincoln said: “Davis, I had to appoint that man. He was a personal enemy of mine." Davis was tho second man appointed by Lincoln to the bench of tho Su­ preme Court of the United States. He never sought the office. I do not think that he ever aspired higher than the Supreme Bench of his own State. I wns iiersonnlly interested in one im­ portant case in which Jie delivered the opinion. It was the famous case of Milligan, Bowles, and Horsey, who were charged with conspiracy in In’diana against tho United States Government It being at a time when the habeas corpus had been suspended. General Burnside was on the point of courtmartialing tho accused. But by tho efforts of J udgo McDonald a habeas corpus was secured. Judge Black, David Dudley Field and myself were the counsel for the defense.' Just be­ fore the trial Judge Black camo to me and asked whether I was anxious to try tho case. I told him that I was very anxious to get out of ita “Well," said Judge Black, “what do yon say to taking on Garfield? Ho is on tho opposite side politically, and then his reputation as a literary man and a scholar will help us.” want But he doesn’t know any law. He hasn't oven been admitted;** “Oh, well." said Mr. Black, “I’ll ad­ mit him, and as for tho law, wo will stuff him up all right" So we stuffed him up with the case. Judge Davis delivered the opinion on tho ground that Indiana was not in a state of war, and that, hence, martial law wa* not applicable.—DenverTrib~ une. A Major General Hissed. In an article on "Hissing" in tho Clipper, the author says: This reminds _________ me oftbe a scene at Arch Street Theater, Philadelphia, just after tho close of the late war. The house was crowded, for Gen. Meade was expected to be present. A few minutes before the time for rais­ ing tho curtain the General entered from the west side, and a young pop­ injay brevet major general, who had never junelt powder, but owed his . *1 n ■tars to political influence, came in on the east side.

The fact is that a mile is less than 87 per cent of a knot Throe and one-half miles are equal, within a very small fraction, to three knot*. Tha knot is 6,082.66 feet in length. The statute mile is 5,280 feet The re­ sult in difference is that speed in miles per hour is always considerably larger than when stated in knots, and if a person forgets this and states a speed at aa many knots, when it was really so many miles, he msy be giving figures verging on the incredible. When we hear a person say that such a vessel is capable of making 20 knots per hour, we usuallytake the statementwith a very large gram of salt, for 20 knot* is 23.04 miles per hour, a speed which few vessels have made, and it is doubted by some, who have the best opportunity for making actual measurements, whether any vessel has ever made 2S miles in 60 minutes. It has been said that some of the English torpedo boats have made as high as 24 or 25 knot*. Twenty-four knots are over 27i mile* per hour, and 25 knots are upward ot 281 miles an hour, distances that are incredible. Eothetio Yoimg Lady— Can yon lieginnrag*-" Mja a writer.

Black eyes are supposed to bo most in­ tellectual ; blue eyes the most soft nnd tender; gray eyes ore capable of the most wonderful expression; and there is a hazel eye with a tinge of green in it which is singularly handsome.

To effect this the hair must lie taken down and well brushed at night with a soft brush, parting it about to clean and cool it; and then it should bo plaited and snffelted to hang about tho shoulders all night In tho morning the roots should bo well washed with rose-water, or cold, soft water, or rain­ water, the last being tbo best; then it must be dried before it is dressed by rubbing gently and shaking out or brushing with a soft brush. count crook* had fled en masse, and found believers until it was discovered that the rejrarter of the paper w as himself a member of the black-legged brother­ hood.

TRIDE OF THE VALLEY” FLOUR A Bloodthirsty Villain. Philkins was a very genial, mildmannered fellow. Ho would not will­ ingly injure any fellow being in any way whatever, and yet he once obtained the-reputation of being a bloodthirsty villain. It happened in this way ; Philkins was traveling through New Hampshire, and one night put up in a Iktlo town where there had been a fair or something of that sort At any rate tho only hotel was completely filled. Philkins hod some difficulty in getting any accommodations whatever *, but the landlord finally succeeded in inducing a lusty young farmer to give up a portipn ot his room. Neither of the two occupants of the room was very well pleased with this arrangement, but of course they had to make tho best of it Philkins spent the evening imbibing various alcoholic decoctions, and list­ ening to weird tales of robbery, mur­ ders, and other crimes. Then he ate a huge piece of mince pie and went to bed. No sooner had ho dropped to sleep than the pie in conjunction with the stories began to tell on him, and he dreamed that ho was a fierce West­ ern stage-robber. Now, this would have been productive of no great evil had it not been for tho fact that he was in tbo habit of talking, in bis sleep. This was what made all the trouble. Tho granger—Bays by name—had gone to bed before Philkins came. He was a good sleeper, and in a very short time was dreaming peacefully of his pigs and cornfields. How long he re­ mained in this blissful state be never knew. He was awakened by hearing a muttered: “’Sdeath, you dog. I’ll kill you!” This trifling remark troubled him; in fact, it made him nervous; and he was just glancing around to get the range of tbe window, when another exclamation met his ear*: “Give up your money, you cur, or Hl murder you!” Hays’ hair was gradually assuming an upright position on his bead, and he was beginning to cautiously erawl out of bed, when hi* companion rolled over and his hand fell with consider­ able force on Hays’ shoulder. “D—n you, 1’11 murder you anyway I" Hays was in a cold perspiration, yet he dared not move. “I need a little practice any way," muttered Philkina; "I wonder whether I’d better shoot you or carve yon up scientifically with a dirk. The carv­ ing is a little more tedious, but it is more satisfactory in the end.9 This was too mu.h. Hays sprang from the lied, seized iris clothes and made for tbe door. This sudden ac­ tivity aroused Philkins, and be asked curimralv: "What’s tbe matterr No answer made th« departing granger until ho had got th^ door open and himself on the emtaids of it.

EVIKS 4 SON. 1 �teat wo HOW THEY GET PEB8I0KB. The-general subject of pensions is always one of couNderable interest, and. additional attention has Ixonia drawn to the anbject of late? by the President's veto of a large numl>er of private pension bilk passed by Con­ gress. The alleged frauds of the Penrion Department and the drawing of Government money by persons not en­ titled to it is also a matter much discasaed, and the abuses which are claimed to exist in the Pension Bureau farm a perennial source of editorial howling and oratorical outcry. In converM'ion with a telegraph reporter this morning, Gen. Shakespeare, in response to inquiries, gave .utterance to some re­ marks which may l>e interesting as ex­ plaining the mode of getting a pension and the practice before this Depart­ ment of the National Government: “The people know little of the diffi­ culty of establishing a claim before the Pension Department.” said the Gener­ al. “If they knew more there would be lew of this wholesale cry about fraudulent pension claims. It would be strange indeed if out of the many claims that are presented some of them were not improperly allowed, but I venture the aasertiorfthnt not- a claim has been allowed that did not have suf­ ficient evidence'U» establish it before any court of law jn tbe Ciiuutry, with or without a jury. The Pension De­ partment is nothing more or lew than a court ot claims for the adjudication of a certain claw of claims against the Government. There is not another court in existence that requires the same amount of evidence to establish a claim as does the Pension Court or De­ partment. There is not another court tn existence where the claimant dr his attorney is refused the right to see the files in the court in his own case. In the practice before the Pension De­ partment, tbe presumption is that every claimant is a fraud/ and that, every attorney engaged in the business of prosecuting claims in that depart­ ment is aiding some one to defraud tbe Government. It is a star chamber court. Let our circuit courts establish similar rules for its conduct aud there would be a revolution immediately. There is no reason why a claim tor a pension 'against-the Government should not be treated exactly the same as a claim for ordnance or commissary storeA. They are both regulated by law. It takes 10 times the evidence to prove the one .as it does to prove the other. In one case the records are open to the inspection of every body that is interested. In the’ other the Government may have an immense amount of false aud incor­ rect evidence furnished by the enemy of the claimant, hut he is not permit­ ted even to know or see it, let alone the opportunity to refute or contradict it. In every caae the department dictates what testimony tho claimant shall furnish, and then orders him before a medical board consisting of three com­ petent physicians, whose report in near­ ly every case is final, provided it is against the claimant, but if favorable may be set aside by tbe star chamber Examiner of the Department,” "Pretty strict, aren’t they!” . "The public has no just reason to complain that their interests are not fully guarded.

The Viscount Charboniere and tbe Marquis de Pommery are two wellknown members of the French nobk-Ase who for years were fast friends. One fateful eveniug, some sixteen yearn ygo, the two were engaged in sipping abaiuthe in a cafe ch&ntant. and wenharing a very pleasant time indeed. The Viscount was a young bachelor then, and, having no cares on his shoulders, he was quite indifferent as to the hour be arrived at his father’s palatial residence. The Marqub, how­ ever, was a married man, with a charm­ ing wife and three beautiful children, and he was anxious to get home, where ' be intended to remove bis boots aud sneak up stair* as usual. Suddenly a discussion arose, and waxed fierce and active. The Viscount claimed that a certain young aiuger at tbe Nonreantes was the prettiest woman in Paris. Tbe M>irqub,'diaputed this, and thought a fair actress at tbe Odeon was the belle of the fair city. High words fol­ lowed, and the twain parted in anger. The next morning the Viacount sent a challenge to the Marquis, and offered to fight with any weapon from bom bn to Gatling jranx. The Marquis was willing to fight, but be said: “The yiaeount has an advantage over mo. I am married, nnd bare three children who depend on me for pie and milk.

It doesn’t seem possible, so rapidly has time flown, that thirteen years have passed since we sent out the first News; but measured by the rapid march of events in this village it was a long time ago. Time has wrought great changes in Nashville during tye past thirteen years. Then aha was an obscure ham­ let of less than 500 inhabitants and considered of so little importance that the railroad company refused to estab­ lish a telegraph office here. To-day she has a population of fully l.QOO, tel­ egraphic and telephonic communication with the outer world; her dealings in farmers’ produce, shipments, and com­ mercial transactions are immense, and exceeded by only two points on this line of road, and she is known through­ out the length and breadth of the state as a live, enterprising town. Two grain elevators, two flouring mills; two planing mills, one creamery, furniture factory, saw mill, machine shop, wool carding and spinning facto­ ry, fruit evaporator, an elegant school house, three churches, all of our brick blocks and principal residence have been erected in the last thirteen years. Of the 07 business places on Main street, from the railroad to Washing­ ton street., 53 have been erected within thirteen years.

Out amidst tho howling, winter winds; <xxt from my door into the dread, dark, d—nlste night, I drove her. Ono hour before, her beautiful head was resting upon my knee; her trust­ ful, soulful, dark, liquid eyes gazing, with the lore of idolatry, into mine. My hand was toying with the soft, nut­ brown hair that glorified her; I would have sworn, then, that nothing but death should part us. A slight, involuntary action of hers roused the infernal temper that was w born in me, and I drove her forth, out ’ of my bouse—her home—from tho warm, glowing fireside, into the terrors of that fearful night At the threshold she paused—only fee a moment No sound escaped her lips, but those glorious eyes were more eloquent than words in supplication, ■ponderously pathetic in appeal. "Go!" I said, as I stood with the door open, and my hand pointing to tho owter darkness. Slowly and sadly, with a quiet dig­ nity, she went. ' My sister’s tears fell silently, and my younger brother muttered u curse .against my heartlesanoos under his breath. But I was master, and none dared to dispute my will I tried to appear unmoved, but as the tempest blasts whirled about the homestead, and howled down tho chim­ neys, and rattled tho solid shutters, the thought of Bessie out in the terriblo storm, drenched with rain, chilled by the wild winds, crouching in some poorly protected nook, took possession of me, and I threw myself on the lounge ..■nd hid my face. ’ Bnt temper and pride would not per­ mit me to give way.

It would be worth knowing if one of those districts corresponds to that part of the Turkish Empire producing the Papaver somniferum, or opium poppy. The wholesale price of prime opium is nearly $10 a pound, and in the neigh­ borhood of Janina aud Beirut 100 pounds per acre is not considered an uncommon yield. The Turkish planter, os well as tho Yankee importer, are handicapped by enormous taxes; but a Tennessee or Texas farmer could make a joppy-gardou as profitable os n ailver-mine. The demand for the drug is increasing at a rate suggesting the sus­ picion that tbe favorite stimulant of our Chinese coolies must have had a sudden access of Caucasian votaries. Thirty years ago our total imports amounted to hardly 90,000 pounds, in 1873 that quantum had already risen to 819,000 pounds, and for 1863 1,000,­ 000 pounds would possibly l>e an un­ derestimAte.

It is perfectly harmless, and removes all crows' feet, so vexatious and enduring under any other treat­ ment." . Tho artiat poured a fow drops of tho Dura in a saucer, adding a drop’ of ammonia. The substance "remained white. A greenish white paste was then laid about the patient's mouth, the ar­ tist saying *a she used it: “This is to take away superfluous hair.

During tho first eight months of 1886 there have been laid 3,475 miles uf main line track, not includ­ ing sidings, etc., in thirtv-«ix of the fortyfour .States and Territu.ies, upon 163 dif­ ferent lines piTond. During 1885 there were rjrij 8,131 miles of rood built in the t= ire twelvemonth. This year the average haa been, aince July 1, nearly 30 miles of nes( track for every working day, and on 96 of the 165 linos mentioned work is still in progress. In addition Io this, tracklaying is about to commence on a number of other lines which have the grad­ ing about completed. It is estimated that the total mileage for the year will largely exceed 6,000 miles, or nearly twice that of cither 1884 or 1885. KniiEa*i leads the van in activity in railway building this year, some 600 miles of rails, on eighteen differ­ ent lines, having already been laid, “and the work continuing with unabated vigor. Texas has built some 300 miles, and Wis­ consin 325 miles. Nebraska has put down 372 miles and has enough roadbed in a nearly completed state to add several hundred miles to this before the new year. Dakota has 240 miles of new lines, end will (xipls or quadruple thia be­ fore snow files. Florida leads the Southern States with a new mileage of 225 miles of track, which will be largely increased.

It was a bright sunny morn in Dsntown, Sullivan County, Missouri, in (he autumn rf 1W2. A band of patriots h*d organized to defend their homes, their wive*, their little ones, nnd the wives nnd little ones of the soldiers who had gone to the front. They had armed, they had uniformed: they had strijH'H (of calico) to their brcoclie’iloons; they had drilled and wheeled to the fierce command of (heir brave officers; they had shouldered, ti ailed, presented, carried and loaded; they hod marched, they had bivouacked, camp -d, fired l>y platoon, and deployed as guerrillas. They were bravo men. As we have remarked, it was a bright antumn morning when Dautown was aroused. The enemy had eome to offer battle. The bells rang to arms; tho bugles bugled to arms; tho noisy drams beat to onus. Promptly those home guards an­ swered to the call to arms. Such heroism is rare.

It has lately been iscovereJ that bichromate of lithium is almost as . sensitive to light as the salts of silver; and a plate prepared with this salt, instead of the usual bi­ chromate of potash, can l>e placed in a camera and a picture taken upon it which, by a modification of the helio­ gravure process, can be used to take prints from directly in an ordinary press. The time may soon come when a printing press will form a part of the outfit of every photographic gallery. A Swiss scientist estimates that in 1970 there will be 8,600,000,000 peo­ ple jn the world speaking English; 1*21,000,000 German, and 69,600,000 French; These culculationa are mado on th(f hypothesis that in England the population doubles in fifty years; in the United States, Canada, and Aus­ tralia, in twenty-five tears; in Ger­ many in 105 years, and in France, and in countries using the French language, 140 years.

The “aensophone" ia the name given to a new telegraph instrument. It de­ rives ita name irom the fact that the message is received on tho finger by the sense of touch instead of ny tlio ear, as in the sounder. Otherwise tbo apparatus is similar to the sounder, and consists of an electro-magnet, which is traversed by tho signal currents from tbo telegraph lino, and attracts an armature. Tho armature operates a small probe or style, which rests against the linger with ita point, and presses upon it so as to be felt by the receiver. The attraction of the arma­ ture actuating the probois interpreted by the receiver, ana written down m tbo message. Of course tho advantage of tho plan is tliat no sound is heard, and therefore the telegraph is a silent one. What shall bo done about the cy­ clone? is becoming a serious question in our Western territory. A recent writer says that the only moans of which we can conceive within human power for tbe prevention, or nt bust the rendering leas frequent, of cyclones is in the covering of tho face' of th© country as much ns possible with trees and verdure. Let there be ascending moisturo instead of ascending currants of heated air. In tho great timbered valleys of the Amazon, cyclones are unknown; vet when wo look nt the for­ mation of the land, it is probably one of the most monotonously level regions on the face of the earth. Take away tbe forests and vordue, and leave this region a vast desert plain, and it would no doubt at once become a very play­ ground of cyclones. A California Earthquake. I amynot sufficiently intiinnto with the article to give you 8 correct an­ alysis of it, although I have rubbed up against several full-blown ones since my residence upon the Coast; but we have never exchanged confidences. The earthquake, like other California prod­ ucts, depends for its success upon ita size andulavor, although its suddenness may have something to do with it It will creep up through the earth until within three inches of the surftco and then it bangs tho spot you aro standing on, telescoping yonr back-bone until your ears rest in your hip-pockote and your coat tail drags in the dust Then with a rocking motion it makes yon sick, and sneaks off after more stre ngth. About the time you fish your cravat out of your boots and vomit up your cigar-holder, which you absent-mind­ edly swallowed in your efforts to hit the earthquake a return blow with theelbow of your pants, it comes back. The first shock is a love-tap compared with the second, and the third is even more energetic. The first shock throws you heavenward far enough to grasp a harp, if mxuically inclinod, and you return in time to alight upon a quantity of glass from windows. Then the rock­ ing motion seta in again and a five-story building leans over and drops a billiard table on your ear. The building rights itself and the one opposite aw.ngs over and dumps an iron bed and a small-pox patient on* you. The earthquake then hies itself off, giggling in its sleeve.

The anlesroom is fully 83 feet long, and all interior work is finished in bird’s-eye maple, trimmed in butter­ nut, except the staircase, which is of walnut In the rear of the salesroom is the office and packing rcx>m. The graud stairway leads to an elegant car­ pet and cloak room above, which is sixty feet'loug. The floor of this room NUMBER 2 LOCAL MATTERS NOTICE. .

CHAPTER, L I once found myself in that wretched poiitiou so humorously aud uathetically deuenbod by Washington Irving in his "Sketch Book," vut, confined by stress of weather at a coun­ try inn. Fortunately, my "rainy day al an to" wm shared by half a ilozen other travel­ ers; aud misfortune, whou shared by otticrx, Idsm half ita sting. It wm iu tho days of traveling bv stage, aud the rein had fallen so hi-anly, and for so long * time, that the rivers aud streams were bwoIleu, bridge* were washed away, and the coachroads rendered in many pUc*-s ilnpaanabia. There wm no help for it, so we philosophical­ ly resolved to make ouraclvra as comfortable m possible under tho circnnutancos. My •companions fh misfortune were, I believe, ■without exception, of the class known m com­ mercial travelers, or, to giro them their more vulgar appall*tion, “bxgmen," a cImb of mon used to tho rici»iutudi-» of the "road," and from the very nature of thoir occupation, ^■Dnrtaotu..accommodating, and genial tn their Habits and manner*. When tho day closed in we Mated ourselves before the ample fireplace, and having called athe best cheer thu hous* could afford, soon uno ao social aud cheerful that wo forgot all about tho wcattefr, and ceased to vex our minds uselessly, in consequence of tho un­ avoidable delay. The song and jest were passed around, and as these men generally contrive to collect a fund of anecdotes in the course of their various peregrinations, the evening pxsaod rapidly and pleasantly away. Wo sat up late, and I pre­ sume it wm the approach of midnight which tad none one of the party to turn tho convene. tion upon the subject of ghosts. SavAral re­ lated stories about tho appearance of ghosts which they had heard from others, but uo one present asserted that ho had iwu a ghost him­ self. and all ridiculed the idea of tho reality of supernatural appearances; all but one elderly man, who hail romaioed silent while tho con­ versation wm going forward. At length he “Geollcmcii " said he, *1 onoe, like your•elvea, ridiculed the idea’ oi the appearance of ghosts. Almost everybody does, though, at wo same time, many who are most persistent in ridicule would shrink from passing through a lonely churchyard at midnight, or from pass­ ing ths night alone in tho vaulted chambers of a ruined or de-ortod castle; in fact, from volun­ tarily placing themselves iu a position where, according to tradition, apixnuons are most likely to be met with. “I said 1 onoe ridiculed the idea of tho anpeanaoa of ghosts. I do not mean to infer by 'thii that I am now perfectly satisfied of their «x stance; bu^ if you uleaae, I will relate an adventure which Defell tnn many years ago. and what followed it, p^edgiug my word that I wld tall you nothing but the truth, and then leave it to yourselves to say whether or not i am justified in at least doubting, if there be not more things in heaven aod earth than are known to our philosophy." A general desire wm expressed to hear thn old gentleman's story, and, after sitting silent for some moments, m if to collect his thoughts, ho commenced m follows: CHAPTER IL "When I wm a young man of nineteen or twenty, I paid a visit to a friend who resided at a town on tho sea-coast. It wm a most ro­ mantic spot; beyond tho town a lofty range of cliffs stretched for miles both to the right and left The sea, at high water, dashed against tbe base of these cliffs with a thundering wound which could be distinctly heard in the town, and which, until I became accustotno.l to it, prevented me from sleeping; but. at low •water, there waa a narrow strip of sandy beach between the base of the cliffs and the •ea. These cliffs were precipitous m we fl m lofty, rugged crags in some places jutting over about to fall and crush them The oouatant in might penetrate to a considerable distance, •though all that could be discerned from the ■•bore wm the dark, gloomy opening.

[to be ooxrnrcgD.] j Eurly Autumn .Styles. Autumn wraps are already appearing, despite the warmth of the weather. These ore in short iacxets, made of light materials and intended tor informal wear, or mantles of heavier fabrics—plush or velvet, Tho fashionable colors of the coming season will bo black, .seal brown, garnet,, helio­ trope, reseda, salambo (which is a pale gray blue), mignonette, dsdilia, many shades of gray, bronze, and mahogany—a very wide selection. As fot 'materials, well, our looms only manufacture a certain ■ variety, and these scarcely vary from year to year. Plush, velvet brocade, silks and satins, c.usbmore. woolen goods of various kinds, these comprise almost the entire selection. At th.e same time many pew and pretty designs are shown ib all these goods. The woolen .good# shown for tho fall styles nre principally in stripes and chocks. Fine plaid woolen good* wtll be popular for onlinary promenade costumes. Other material* show wide stripes of one color, intersjersed with hair-lines of various bright tints. In millinery, the small bonnets so much favored during the summer will suffer but little ebunge for early autumn w.-ur. Fcath-. ert, ostrich or otherwise, wing, breasts, aud entire birds, will form tho principal trim­ mings, the imported bonnets universally showing more or less of this style of trim­ ming. Bright golden, yellow, and amber shades are seen in the satin, velvet, and ribbon garnitures on utVumn bonnets. Jet and bead trimmings will be also reyy large­ ly employed, arranged in light, graceful open patterns, over velvet grounds, which may be of ahnost any color the wearer chooses. Some of the large jet bends which are used for this purpose ore ao beauti­ fully cut as to cost almost as much as jew­ els." Tinted l»ends will likewise be em­ ployed quite extensively for the embellish­ ment of autumn bead-gear. A small round frame being chosen, it is covered with vel­ vet, say salmon color, grayish blue, straw, pink, or mauve. It is then coven d with embossed designs in large glass l>eads of the some tint as tbe ground, and is fnrthei adorned with huge loons of satin ribbon, arranged in coronet fashion. This style of bonnet is fastened beneath tho chiu with velvet strings. . An extremely elegant evening or laill costpme for a young lady is composed of pompwlonr brocade Mik. with an overdress of white lace. The bodice is decollate, ent round in the neck, and edged with beads. The ideeves reach to the elbow, like many of our evening dresses recently shown, and are formed at pale-blue velvet, with lace ruffles. The lace overdress is made rather short in front, being draped up at the sides and knotted with pale-blue satin ribbon, but fl falls well over the hips, and roll* in graceful folds at the buck. Light-blue stockings and white satin slippers are worn with this costune. An almost transparent summer fabric, which will also be used for early fall c.-.«tumes, is termed mottasetaine de soie. or silk muslin, though called by many dry­ goods men India muslin. It is now very extensively used for dancing and evening costumes, particularly at the seaside resgrts. The colors in which it spiiears are to suit the texture, usually pale aud deli­ cate. Pale blues or pinks, lavender, ecru, or tea-rose are the prettiest lints in which it is seen, and it forms costumes of the most gracefully airy appearance imaginable. White lace should be the principal garni­ ture, and the material is very often made up over surah, sometimes of a'slightly dif­ ferent tint. MoiuuH-laine de noie comes very frequently figured, and is then usually shown sprinkled with blossoms. A delicate afternoon cotflume of helio­ trope sicilicnne has the bodice cut in long pointe all the way round, in front and over the hips. The over-drapery of the dress is short, and is gathered up 'in front to fnll in natural folds over the rear. The under­ skirt is laid in rather narrow plaits and cut in Vandykes. The collar is quite high, and the bodice opens to show a plastron of ecru lace made flat, aud with bows of satin rib­ lion down the front. The sleeves ore also delic«t.*ly garnished with cream-colored lace. . It is surprising to see how many different reports are made with regard to the ques­ tion of plumage trim min as on mffltnery by the fashion reporters. They ail aeem in­ clined to think that the custom ought to cease, but thay certainly have not sufficient influence to stop it. While feathers con­ tinue to prove the prettiest ailornmeut for ladies' bonnets, our ladies will wear them. The argument that tbe custom ia a savage and barbarous one, adopted from tbe usages of our own Indians and other heathen na­ tions, will have little more weight than the same plea had when advanced in favor of the jpali-earring movement. So long as earrings satisfy a ladv's taste for the beau­ tiful, sb? will pierce her ears. For my own part I see no greater misdemeanor in wear­ ing feathers on bonnets than in wearing sealskin mantles. Tbe seal is slaughtered for his skin no 1cm than the birds for theu feathers. __________ Io the wife of a Western member of the House of Representatives.

Under such circumstances the relief which can be rendered on the spot cannot be large, and it may amount to very little. At the conference of tbe Anti-Saloon Republicans in Chicago Edwin Lee Brpwn made an assertion which was of tbe highest importance to tbe human race. Speaking on the subject of in­ temperance, he said that he had never believed that Adam got into trouble because be ate an apple. It was much more likely that he brought suffering and misery into the world by getting drunk. This ia tbe first time that we have ever heard anybody impugn the diameter of Adam. It has been under­ stood, of course, that tbe first man ate of the forbidden fruit, but no fact in history is better authenticated than that the woman waa to blame for that affair.

The other fellow'n DBKjrt was Dick. Tbe trench wns about wo did wasted to pop awaV we'd lav the gun-bar­ rel along that groove, get quick right on tho enpjuy, pull the trigger, and then jump •*ki»n. Dick vu a pig-headed sort of a chap. I told him n dozen times he didn’t have sense enough to hold his head on his shoulders. “There was a lot of Yankee slxirpflhooter» iu front of us, and I cautioned Dick to look out how • he exposed himself. I tell. ynu it van dangerous for even so much ns n man’s car t< get in kigiit of those fellows. I beard the bullets whtelling lively over our trench, and I knew by thn wound that they were forced balls. A forced ball, you know, is a bullet from a breech-loader. It is a little bigger than the dinmeter of the gunborrel, and consequently it goes oat with grerter force than the ball from a muzzle­ loader. The way wo coaid -distinguish be­ tween the two kinds of guns w*s, that if it was a breech-loader tho bullet got to you before the report; but if it wm a muzzle­ loader the report got to you before the ball. Most ull of the Yonks used the breech­ loaders, nnd you can just bet your boots we were mighty careful how we got ia thoir -way. . ‘■As I was raying, the ballets were whist­ ling pretty lively over onr trench. I was loaded, and was about to pat my gun in tbe groove and pick off a blue-coat. Dick was ' standing in front of the groove putting in a chnrg . He had his eye st the breech of hte gun examining it, and the ride of hte head was turned toward the groove. While he was standing there—it was not more than ImW 'a minute altogether—one of the ‘forced’ halls came singing through the groove and bored a hole clear through his head as big as a walnut. He fell dead. I ©tapped across to him, and in doing so passed in front of the groove. Just as I got on the other side of the trench another bullet paus'd through tho groove and buried itself in the rear wall of the trench. Two other ball.* followed it, aud buried themselves in tjlf identical hole mtulo by the find bullet. The sharpshooter who did that neat job wo* a h ilf-mile away.” -“Pretty good shooting," suggested one of the listeners. ' “I should say so," said the Lieutenant, with an expressive shrug of the shoulders. “Some of those Yankee sharpshooters were marvelous-. They had little tclesooj>CH on their rifles that would fetch a man up close until he seemed to be about only one hun­ dred yards away from tho muzzle. I’ve seen them pick a man off who was a mile away. They could hit so for you couldn’t hear the rejxirt of the gun. You wouldn't have nny idea that anybody was in sight o' you, and all of a sadden, with every­ thing as silent as the grave and not a sound of a gun, here would come skipping along one of those ‘lorced* ball* and cut a hole clear through you. “How we used to lay for these sharp­ shooters, though," he raid, chuckling at the rememberan.ee. “We’d keen a lookout for every little paff of smoke. The shaq>ahooters, you know, mo tly climbed trees and hid themselves in the branches. So, every time they'd shoot there’d be a tell­ tale puff of smoke come out of the tree. Jost as soon us we'd see one of those little puff* of amokc the entire battery would rain shot and shell into that tree, and we'd make it so hot for the uharjHhooter that he’d either tumble or crawl out, dead or alive. The best shooters were ia the I nion army. Most of them came from the West, and many of them bad been scouts in tbe Indian country. They rarely mtesed n mon at the distance of a mile. Indeed, they could hit any object as big as a pie plate that far away." Wouldn’t Surrender. The following story is too good to be -lost. No wonder tho Alabama crew was made happy by a little fight It was be­ coming monotonous.; papers with the much-vaunted Confederate crutoer, the Alabama, and my service in her did not end until she sailed into an English port with the Confederate flog flying. You will thus realize that I participated iu the capture of several dozen Federal increhanimeu and whalers. There was a sameness about our manner of making captures which we were glad to have broken now and then. R was but rarely that a vessel vac overhauled during the night K we were ia chase of her wo siwply'kcpt her in sight, or tried to. until daylight came. While wu could not anticipate auy stubborn resistance, the right sort of a skipper might fire a volley into a boat’s crew, or go to some •other uncomfortable extreme. As a rule w<- had only to clow in on our victim, fire n solid shot across hte courwe, and be would hearo to and put the best face possible on a bad matter. The First Lieutenant would lie sent off to him with a boat aud a half­ dozen marines, and in the course of half nutted to go bii way. If hte craft was to be destroyed, the men were allowed to bring tip their clothing and knick -knacks, the officers to pack up thrir personal effrcta, and inside of an hour the ornft would be search of another victim. When we ran around id warch of whalers we came upon a Yankee skipper who didn’t know wbn: surrender meant We were jnrt well to the went of the stormy cape when, ■one morning after breakfast.'we rained a whaler.

Mr. and Mrs. Graiues took the first train for home after "the squire” performed the ceremony. There is wniling and gnashing of teeth by the farmers near Maple Rapids who were so simple as to buy alleged groceries of the swindling travelera who have been there for tbe past three weeks. They claim to have victimized the farmers there to the tune of $2,000. The merchants have the farmers spot­ ted and are looking for them to come and get trusted for their winter supply of groceries. For more than a year there has been a series of petty robberies aud burglar­ ies in Lansing that have bafilod the ef­ forts of the police to unravel. Grocer­ ies, saloons nnd small shops have been plundered time and time again, and it now transpires that these jobs were all the work of the boys confined in the State Reform School, the fact being discovered by Grocer Lowtr, who set a watch. The cottage system is in vogue at the school, aud fifty boys oc­ cupy each cottage, and they dropped trom the upper windows during • the rounds of the watchman. Sunday evening 3. J.

Tbe aftnir grew out of a confession alleged to have been made by Dunning to a lending of­ ficer of the church which he formerly attended, in which the chastity of the ladies was said to be implicated. The affair has created a great sensation, nnd more startling features are expected. Saranac was all font up Monday morning by the announcement the Je­ rome Brown, cashier of the late bank of Lee & Brown, had taken a trip to Canada: later it was ascertained that he had forged the name of A. C. Lee to paper for about $4,000, and used some other names. It has been thought for some time that the firm could not stand long, but it was not expected that it would wind up its business in this way. Its depositors were mostly farm­ ers uud laboring men. th& liabilities will be-about $30,000. and ewrvthing briongiug to tbe firm has been dis­ posed of, and there is nothing left.

Philip Annersley’s Pride. BY I’. BOCHOX. CHAPTER L Brightly the sun shone, sweetly tho birds ••rolled that balmy May afternoon, and there wm nothing 'fairer in nature than tho face of Maude Hanmer, the young scbool■oistress, as, her duties over, she lingered <m ber way homeward, to enjoy tho beauti­ ful day— now plucking a violet from its moeev bed, listening to the merry tinkle of - the little brook, then softly humming to bersolf imatches of an old song. ' A girl’s face still; for Maude's seventeen years, allhough they had given her knowl­ edge enough to teach the little school of Acton, had not fully molded her form, filled oul the outlines, or given a womanly ' character to the sweet young face. Her chAtnut hair, with here and there, a golden gleam in jt (reminding ono of Titinn's wmnvn). clustered in thick, short rings over tho well-shaped head, half revealing, half •onooaling, the little ears. Tho eyes were •tear, blue, and frank- as a child’s—a faint rose-tint on her cheek, a dainty hand and foot—sfie was a sight to gladden tho eye. So thought Philip Annersley, as bo rode •lowly by, fatigued by his long ride, and reins hinging carelessly on his horses neck; and Mande, lifting ber eyes with a look of curiosity, »encountcrcd those of tho handsome stranger. Raising his hot, he inquired, courteously. *Can you direct mo to the house of the Into Mr. Morant?" “Easily,” she replied. “It is the large house upon the hill. You cutch a glimpse of it through the trees." Thanking her, be passed on; and Maude blushed as she recalled tho evident admira­ tion expressed in the dark eyes. Philip Anneraley was the only son of a rich widow. His father died when he was but nn infant, leaving him and a sister, u few years his senior, to the guardianship of Mrs. Annersley. Imperious to others, yet always indulgent to Philip, ehe had grat­ ified his slightest wish, yet never allowed him, for an instant, to forget that tho old Anneraley pride and blood must not be •homed by word or deed of his. And, as the result of her judicious training, more than any one in tho world,- Philip loved and reverenced his mother. With much that was noble in his nature that had never been called forth, haughty to strangers, gentle as u woman to those he' loved, it was not strange that women flat­ tered him, or that his talents and social position made him a favorite with iris own Tired of homo scenes, he had wandered in foreign lands, and seen all that the con­ tinent hold* wonderful. Pleasure held al­ ways a foaming cup for him to dririk.yet he had returned to his mother “heart-whole and fancy free.” The death of nn uncle had left him heir now posocxion that he now visited Acton. He found all os it bad been during hia ancle's life; even the old servants seemed not 3 day older than when he hod spent the vacations of hi» boyhood with his father's only brother. After his solitary dinner, as he reclined at ease upon the luxurious sofa, the housekeeper entered to ask which room should ■be prepared far him. The desired infor­ mation being given, es she was leaving the room----“By the way, Mrs. Lyle, who ore my nearest neighbor*?" he ttskod, apparently intent upon watching the blue smoke of his cigar curl lazily upward. “The Monsdna, sir, live in the white house yonder, during the summer; Squire JBruce in tho brick one close Jby." "Are these the only families of note in *8>e neighborhood?” he next asked, in the *aaa>e careless tone. "There are none others you would care to associate with," returned the house­ keeper. "How know you that?” said Philip Anneraley, and a smile played over his -kandmnne fnce. ’ “I knew your mother; and I well romember how particular ah- was not to mix in ■society beneath ber." “Then you imagine, m a matter of ■course." replied tho young man, "that I ■ou share in her prejudices.” “I have been led to believe so,” returned the housekeeper, evidently not at her east; at the turn the convernation had taken. “Hum'” and Philip Anneraley mused with himself for a few momenta. Present­ ly he Miked. “Who live* in the brown cot­ tage. at the foot of Ike hill?" “Farmer Grant, sir," ithe answered. “I inquired the way there this afternoon, sny memory not serving me correctly.

There in no food that is more healthful, and which goes further to sustain the natural waste of the system than good cheese. In Europe it takes the place of meat on the tables of the poor, but that fact would be no recom­ mendation to the American. Ho does not like the idea of eating a tiling that is the last resort of victims of the de­ grading government of Europe. Let us rather tell him that cheese is an everpresent article upon the tables of the rich, which it is. That it is quite the thing for even children of royalty to feed on cheese.

The last subject un­ der discussion was a wasp. It appears that while they were talking about something one pf.the boys got up to kill a wasp that was buzzing at tbe window. Mr. Gladstone argued that the wasp had a right to live, while the son declared that it should be killed. The old man’s side won and tbe wasp wns tret at liberty.” “I am glad to hear it.” replied the doctor; “glad to know that the great man will argue iu favor of anything’s life.” “Yes; but, father, I think we waste all tire sympathy wo bestow upon wasps.” "1 can convince you that you are wrong, my son. Ah, there is a wasp at the window. Now, my cliildrt n, let us determine whether or not he must die.” The doctor took the side of mercy.

Tho city wus giwgeoxudy dec­ orated for the oectwion. “Sumo of tho decorations along the lino laid out for .the parade were magnificent," says a cxirivspondenL “Public buildings and bwonsw blocks wore bright with parti -colored bant­ ing. Flags and j»ennauta billowed and fluttered from their fronts, and high up at tho tapering peaks of their lofty flagstaffs. Masonic emblems aud mottoes, fanciful figures, wrought out of bunting by the decorator’s skill, and wreaths of la-autiful evergreen adorned tbe streets. Tho great Court House wa* surrounded with garlands of evergreen suspended from high poles, bearing the coals, of aims of various States, from each of which graceful tri­ colored ;>eunants streamed to the ground. Immense pyramidal pillars of evergreen, crowned with Masonic embloms, stewxl on cither ride of tbe entrance* to the great building, and dircctlv over the entrances were fixed semi-circular sunbursts of bunt­ ing and evergreens." (>no of the events of the conclave was the drill and concert nF the fair grounds, which won witnessed by 75,000 people. The eommauileries participating wore: Detroit (Mich) No. 1; DeMouty N<>. .13, of Louis­ ville; Riper No. 1, of Indianapolis; St. Bernard No. 35, of Chicago; Louisrille iKy.) No. 1; Zion No. 2. of Minneapolis anil Jackson .No. 7, of Jackson, Mich. ‘ Tbe city ’was brilliantly illuminated Wednesday night. “The Flambeau Bat­ talion gave a parade and exhibition on the most prominent thoroughfares of the West End. Ivanhoe Comtmindery of St. Louis held a formal reception, which wa* largely attended, and proved u brilliant affair, while all the local and visiting commanderies kept open house. A notable reception was given by Oakland Commandery of California, at which thousands of callers were entertained in the most magnificent style. Among the noted eommanderies which called in bodies were: St. Bernard of Chicago, 200 Knights aud ladies; Apollo of Chicago, 100 Kiitahts; DeMolsy, Louis­ ville, 150 Knighta oxid ladies; and the Mary Coramimdery of Philadelphia." The Ancient Arabic Order of the' Mystic Shrine, one of tbe highest orders of Masonry, of whose members 2,000 were in attendance upon the conclave, initiated 200 candidates at midnight of Wednesday, the close of the Arabic year. The cere monies were conducted by the Medina Temple of Chicago, assisted l>y the Imperial Potentate, Samuel Briggs, of Cleveland, Ohio. The elaborate costumes, rich jewels, mystic emblems and rites rendered the services most impressive. Previous to the ceremonies the shrinera paraded the principal down-town streets, inch temple accompanied by a band. The costumes aod uniform* were of many vari­ eties, tbe only articl- worn in common be­ ing the red fez. Tbe two temple* which attracted tho most at! ent ion and received the most generous applause were those of Baltimore and Ch csgo—tho former ap­ pearing in full evening dress, the tatter m tegular Turkish costume, fez, crimson bag trousers, jackets, etc. Odd-Fellow*. Th? annual meeting of the Sovereign Grand Lodge, I. O. O. F., attracted an im­ mense number of people to Boston. The Grand Sira, Henry D. Carey, in his report, traced the growth of the order since its last meeting in Boston, tweutv-two rears ago, in 1864, with less than 10.000 New En­ gland members. The same territory now numbers 65,000 brethren. The order in general ha* shared this prosperity. In 1864, in the whole world, the number of mem­ bers wstr 137,263; to-day there are 517,­ 310 members, with an" increase in the total revenue of over 94,000,000. The or­ der is prosperous in foreign countries. Mr. Carey advocated the retention of the perma­ nent location of the Grand Lodge in Balti­ more. Tho figures of various Odd-Fqllows’ beneficial associations show receipts for the past year of $1,050,905; paid to tbe families of deceased members. $873,­ 363; deaths, 1,752; membcis in good stand­ ing, 46,144; money on hand. $578,820. The figures cover forty-one bodies —all that reports have been received from. Tlie Grand Secretary’s report con­ tained statements allowing tho con­ dition of the order in the United States, Canada, and foreign jurisdictions. The prospects of both lodges and ccoampmenta for the pre'ent year aic very flutter­ ing. The report of the Grand Treasnrer showed n balance on baud, on Anixuri 20, 1885, of $15,672; raceipts for tho rear, $49,043; expenditnroa, $12,420; available assets of the Sovereign Grand Lodge, $78,096. . The grand banquet given in Odd Fellows’ Hall by the Sovereign Grand Lodge was a very enjoyable affair. I’latoa were laid for nearly five hundred persons. Tbe gath­ ering comprised the supreme officeni and other high dignitaries of tbe Order, to­ gether with many ladies. Th* parade was one of the flnert ever wit­ nessed in Boston. Fifteen thousand Odd­ Fellows and f<» ty bands were in line. A platoon of police led the way, followed by the Boston Cadet Band and Grand Can­ ton Luzerne, of Lynn, one hundred men acting as nn escort to Lieutenant General Underwood and his staff of patriarchs mil­ itant. Three divisvms of ]iatriarnbs mili­ tant followed. This portion of the proces­ sion was its most marked and tot cresting feature, the brilliant uniforms, fine march­ ing, skillful evolutions, and splendid ap­ pearance of tho iialriarchs colling forth universal commendation? 3 he main body of Odd-Fellows came next in nrder.

Such a letter m that, such threats as those, made by the saloon-keepers of Chicago ought to arouse every voter, every man who has one spark of love for his home or native land. This de­ fiance of law and determination to con­ tinue tbe soul-destroying traffic, law or no law, is in exact harmony with the conduct and spirit of saloon-keepers everywhere, audit will continue to be so just as long as honorable men—yes, men who in tbeir hearts bate and dread tbe terrible traffic, but who for the sake of allegiance to party will continue to vote to license this monstious crime which menaces the very foundations of our American government and flings Utter defiance at all law. "If we pay our license the authorities are bound to protect us; if th«v don’t do if we will, protect ourselves if it takesacivil war.’ There von have the saloon spirit in n nutshell. Gentlemen of the American jury, you who have it in your power to say whether the people or the saloon-keep­ ers shall rule .our country, to you the wives and mothers and children are looking for a verdict that will protect their homes. Will you come up like men and in the fear of God render your verdict by a ballot which means "No more license to tbe liquor traffic in any form or for any pricef” Or will you, for tbe sake of party or office continue to pander to this monstrous curse till it crashes us all together. May God help you to decide for the right. MICHIGAN NEWS. James McCormick, a Fnneville .— pioneer, was severely gored by ‘ball 1 ou Thursday.

He was a good fellow but he didn’t use her well.

Both he and tbe lady were accustomed to come to me for advice after these affairs. ‘Get a divorce,’ says I at laat. ‘Agreed,’says they, and shook hands on- it. Then they separated pending the result of legal proceedings.

In tho course of tho rehabilitation of the United States navy, docks and navy­ yards require very serious considera­ tion, for, after ships and guns, there are no requirements ot more imjtortanco for naval purposes. The capacity of tho Government yards for dockage is very insignificant, owing to which tho bottoms of our ships are but seldom subjected to scrutiny, and this, above all others, is tho part of the integrity of which we need to be most assured. The few docks that wo have are gener­ ally appropriated by vessels .under re­ pair, and the cruising ship is debarred the use of this means of guarding her safely and providing for her speed. A very slight accident may disturb tho copper on the bottom of a wooden ship, which may result in serious Consequen­ ces if filje be sent to cruiso in waters where she will be exposed to the influ­ ence of the teredo, und the neglect to clean the bottom when loaded with grass or barnacles might bo impair speed as to make the difference between capture and failure in a chase. Dock­ ing for such purposes as inspecting and cleaning the bottom u the exception in our practice, as tho demands of repairs are considered paramount A ship in which the repairs approach or lie below the water-line must 1^ placed in a dock, and months being often required to complete the work, the dock is closed to all other purposes, snd our ships are frequently sent from one navy-yard to another to take advantage of a dock that may be vacant Ths emlmrrassments that have at­ tended this course in the past, while 'our fleet hu consisted of coppersheathed wooden ships, will be in­ creased by the introduction of iron and steel hulls, which demand much more care and more frequent removals of such liindranoes to sjmmmI as will attach themsblves to their bottoms. The Government hu at present but three stone dry-docks and one floating­ dock. The latter is in use at 1’oftiK mouth, N. H.; the stone docks are at the navy yards in Boston, New York, and Norfolk. It requires no argument to show that the Government needs a great increue in its facilities for dockage; the neces­ sity of a plentiful supply of docks is recognized by all powers, and we can­ not pretend to be blind to our own deficiency. This is a want that must be provided for, but it is welf to study all points t^nt bear on the subject, and to mature some plan of operations be­ fore we embark in work which involves great expense, and the.succees of which must depend on the thoroughness with which all the factors are considered beforehand.—Lear Admiral E.

Pitched Radboubn is sick of Boston, and wants to go to Philadelphia. He for­ merly played under Harry Wiight's man­ agement in Providence. ” Some of the St. Lnnis pajiers are delud­ ing themselves and their readers with tho belief that the League will allow Sunday championship gimes to be played iu the Mound City next season. Chicago has won the home and home series thia year from every club in the League, os well as the championship. De­ troit has lost tho majority of the games with both Chicago and New York. The Chicago*, champions of the Na­ tional League, and the St. Louis Browns, champions of the American Association, will play a series for the championship of the world, nine sanies in all—four to be played in Chicap) and four in St. Louis, and one on neutral ground. The stakes are to be $500 a side, to be divided amoug tho players of the winning club! The win­ ner also takes all the receipts. MAINE’S GOVERNOR-ELECT. Joseph R. Bodwell, who has been elected Governor of Maine, was born in 1818 in what is now part of Lawrence, Mavs. In those days they called it by the oldfashioned name of Methuen. His father was so poor that the boy went to live with an uncle. The Governor-elect of Maine has lieen a farm - laborer, shoemaker, fanner, teamster, quarryman and granite works proprietor. The latter he is still on a Mwy large scale. He it was who opened tfie granite quarries of Maine, thus giving his fellow citizens a new industry. He began to work the quarries at Fox Haven in 1832. So. small was the beginning that be used to haul tho granite out himself with one yoke of oxen. He learned shoemaking evening*, while he was going to schixfl in the daytime. He has. besides his quarry interests, a fine farm, and is known ns a huge importer of blooded stock. Mr. Bodwell became a resident of Maine in 1852. iu tie town of Hallowell, where he previously discovered a desirable quality of granite. Hu has been an active politician, having represent­ ed the town of Hallowell in the Maine Legislature, and has served a-> Mayor for ten terms, and was a delegate at large to the Republican National Conventions of 1880 and IBM._________________ .

During the war, the people of Arka­ delphia, Ark., kept up their religious revivals. They argued that the Yan­ kees might keep out sugar and coffee, but that they couldn’t keep out the Lord. Among the most fervent of tho revivalists was old Sister Boyle. With­ out her, no revival could hope to be a success: and, whenever there was the least draw-back, she was called upon to prav. Ono night, at a meeting, tho mourners were slow in “comip’ through.” Sister Boyle wu called up­ on. She took a position near the altar, knelt down, raised her hands, and said: "Oh, Lord, we are in great distress. We have tried ryo, browned potatoes, parched corn, okery, and many other things, trying to get a coffee ta te out of ’em, but.

It was about a yard and a quarter in length, and was quite a yard wide. The design was heavy and rich along the edge, and the rest was “sprigged" with small orange buds. It had been the wedding veil of some ancestress. The luce was beautifully fine old Brussel*, and, of course, was valuable. The girl was so delighted to find it, rolled up among a lot of old linen,, that she impetuously dragged it out of the chest, and, in doing so, caught one corner of it on a wretched nail that lurked unseen in­ side the big box- However, she darned' it so skilfully that it hardly showed, and she used to wear this veil as a fichu, and lovely it looked. One very hot day, at a garden party, she left it in the bed-room of her hostess and. coming up to get it in the evening, could not find it anywhere. It hail disappeared, and, though she was very sorry just at first, she soon forgot all about it. as girls well, She married and went to India with her husband. Her mother left the village. But last year, when my old friend waa home with her hu .baud on furlough, they met some old acquaintances who bad a place near their former home, and, being naked to go and aUy with them, they accepted. On the very evening of their arrival there was an amateur concert got up by the musical people about, and, of course, every one went, Jeanie and her husband among the rest. / They aat immediately behind a girl whiMn Jeanie had known formerly, and whom ahe recognised with pleasure, only waiting for a pause in the per­ formance to attract her attention. Thia, however, she did very effectually before any pause came. In a very piano part of the solo that was being sung a loud whisper rang quite audibly through tho room. This was Jeanie, who had fouad her long-loat lace veil, recognized her own dainty little stitches, and uttered aloud: “My darn!" The girl before her turned around, as did every one, and when she saw Jeania ahe grow as white aa the lace itself. You see she had thought herself quite safe in wearing it after oil that long time, thinking Jeanie waa in India.—London Truth. �GUNS.

I- T. raso sun I i j Judge JennisoD of Detroit is reported to have said that if Fitzgerald, who killed Quinn in a Detroit saloon, hod not been drank when lie committed the homicide he would have sentenced him for life; but he let him off with *25 years because he was drunk. Or, as one paper reports it, the judge said he would not be as severe as he would be if both men had been sober and the row had not occured in a saloon. It is to be hoped that the judge is misrepresented. It is a maxim of the law, which is st least in ono case ex­ pressly put into the statute, that when a man commits two offenses at once neither offence excuses the other. Thus if a man while he is committing a burglary kills a man it is murder in the. firwt degree, even if otherwise it would Ire only manslaughter, or perhaps merely justifiable homicide. Now if a man geu drunk he commits one offense; if while he is drunk he commits anoth­ er offense, his being drunk, in common sense, at least, is an aggravation and notan excuse for his second offense. If the judge is correctly reported, he actually rewards the criminal for being drunk, and sets up Lis drunkenness as a sort of virtue over against his crime. It is as much as to say to criminal*: If you desire to commit any crime, get drunk first, that will Ire accounted to you as an excuse which will greatly lighten your punishment in case you are caught aud convicted.—Lansing Republican.

Justice .Gordon decided in the Penn­ sylvania-Supreme Court, >t Pittaburgh, that the sioretprdcr act of Juno 29, 1881, is uuconatitutiooai and void, inasmuch as by it "per­ sons are prevented from making their own contracta." In lite opinion Judge Gordon says: “The act is an infringement alike of tho rights of tho employer and employe, and it is an insulting attempt to put tho laborer under legtaiativo tutelage-, which te not only degrading to tho manhood but subsarvieht to hte rights as a citizen of tho United Ststea" Tlio decision caused a great deal of comment in Pittsburgh labor circles. Tbe Labor Tribune advises every labor organization in the State to make a determined fight against tho store-order syatem. John Costello, President of tho Pitts­ burgh Miners' Association, said: "Tho deci­ sion will be startling news to the miners. They must necessarily begin a warfare against the pernicious system. ” <—Irr'pulling down the undertaking shop of tho late Godarc Casanave, of Return­ ing Board fame, in Now Orleans, workmen iliscovi-rod a mtelaid coflin containing tbe coqx»e of a Cuban planter who died in Italy thirty years aga Heavy shocks of earthquake hove iiovod tho center of the disturbance* hu ahiftod from Charleston to that point Earth­ quake shocks have also been felt in Kentucky.

CHAPTER XL After passing along a sinuous path she said: "Go on, pass between those two larger trees, and you will see tho plains. Not far is Blue Gulch. Remember your promise. Good-by.” And she was gone. Jasper gave ono hurried glance around after her retreating form, then turned to the spot she had indicated, thankful for his escai>e, but sorely puzzled over his strange Mends. ' He gained the old mountain trail, he saw the rolling plains in tire distance, but the epot upon which he ntcxxl was unfamiliar. He turned and walked swiftly clown the trail. The afternoca sun was fast sinking behind the mountains when an Indian stepped from behind a tree and confronted him. Jasper felt for his revolvers, to remem­ ber. trioN! that he was unarmed. "Ugh!" grunted tho red-skin. “Cattle King no brave, Buy all Indian’s cattle; keep Indian's hunting ground. Indian bate Cattie King." The red-skin evidently recognized him. and his hate was felt, as well as expressed. Before Jasper could think what wa- best to do a band of twenty or more leaped out. Three of their number seized him, bound him, and, enrtying him a short distance, placed him on tbe buck of a pony. “Indians take Catte King home. Indians hate Cnttie King." And away the whole party dashed; whith­ er, he coaid not tell. Onward the ponies galloped over tho rather uneven ground.* taking, a northerly direction. Jasper's feelings were far from enviable. He had escaped ono capitivity for another of. far greater danger. He knew the na­ ture of the redskins and how intensely they Jutted the white men who had, as they thought, appropriated their hunting­ grounds. He felt satisfied unless he oould make his escspe from his present captors the horrors of torture awaited him. The fore part of the night had passed ere long enough to let their ponies have a few mouthfuls of grass and a drink of water from the North Platte as they crossed it, go­ ing toward the Indian country. The jour­ ney begun again aud continued at intervals of short rest for two days longer, when be­ tween two mountains iu a fertile valley, through which flow«d A small stream, they beheld an Indian village. The young cattle king wns a'most ex­ hausted with the long journey and short rations allowed him. ’ His situation was anything but cheerful. He wns dragged along into the very h-'art of the enemy's land, the bonds which hnd been partially loosed were firmly drawn again, and he was thrust into a small tent in the center of the village. For a wonder the tent wns empty. Jasper felt certain his time for torture 'had not yet arrived, for with a sentinel Rationed at bis door the Indians wandered off and lounged on thq green sward, tho most of them ap­ parently going to sleep. Jasper himself dozed a little, notwith­ standing his great anxiety and his deter­ mination to escape, even if 'it ended in his recapture or death—for that would be the end anyway if be remained in the red­ skins' power. Though unarmed and bound, he hoped for something to take place that would be in his favor. Hope was one of the strong points of his nature. Toward noon an old squaw came in where he lay bound, and, cutting the thong* bind­ ing hia arms, tillered him to cat the dirtylooking mess she brought. He stretched out his aching nrm«, and found it almost imposuble to comply for a few minutes, they were so cramped. “White dog est!" said the squaw, an­ grily. “Oh," said Jasper, “youcan talk English.

I may 60 fold your white wings over An Averted Peril. Two men came through the gate, and walked rapidly up tho graveled walk to tho veranda whore the ladies were sitting. “Hillo!" exclaimed the leader, a tall, dis•ipated-looking mon, “this is my wife, and yon are my daughter Claire, I suppose. ■ Tho elder lady had fallen back iu her chair, pale and fainting. “You don't recognize me, eh?” he con­ tinued. , “Well, a dozen rears does change a man some. And Claire was a little child when I hade her good-by. Giro mo a kiss, my girl," turning to Claire, “and welcome ray frirnd, and your husband that must be, Andrew Morley. Ho is a good man and a brave one, other-iqp I would not pick him cut for my beautiful daughter." •Edmund!" at last gnF[>ed the wife. “Then you still recognize the old Ed­ mond in me?" and'wtooping ho kissod her cheek coldly. “You are changed but little," faltered the poor woman, shrinking from him. ■“But your coming is n surprise. I thought you wwi dead. I had not heard from you in five years." “And hoped never to hear from me," and he laughed coolly, as ho turned to his friend. “Andrew Morley,” he qpntinuod, pointato a rustic chair, “my wife and I never nlged in confidences, and you can hemall we have.to say." Andrew Morley had a handsome face; ♦mt it was, like his friend's, marked with dissipation. His sharp eves were fixed boldly upon the beautiful Claire, and when, in response to tho invitation, bo took a seat, it was close beside her. He opened tho conversation with n cultured cai.e and au evident desire to Mrs. Byrn glanced nt them, her eyes di­ lated with anxiety. Ttiming to her hus­ band, who was watching them with a cold smile,.oho said tremulously. “You cannot mean it. Torment me, if you like, but spare your own daughter, I entreat, Edmund-----“Piah!” exclaimed Byrn, “I cannot mean it. eh? You'll find I do menu it; I've hud a hand iii paying for her existence in this world, and now, that she has, ns I learned • few weeks ago, fallen heir to your old aunt's estate, I intend to reward my friend hero with tho wealth and herself. That is if ho don’t refuse the bargain. What do you say, Morley?” he went on, turning to that individual, with n coarse laugh; "does xny daughter suit your taste? You were in­ clined to be very particular about her looks before we got here.” Morley looked rebukiogly at his friend, and then taking the baud of the pale and shrinking Claire, said, in a low tone: “If you consent to your father's proposal yon will make me supremely happy, Miss Byrn. I assure you that your ’ grace, beauty, and evident amiability have en­ tirely gained my heart. Were 'you in the greatest poverty, I should still pray you to bleas me with your hand." There wan the earnestness of passion in h^H tones that convinced both ladies that he was tolling the truth. Edmund Byrn, however, seemed to think it a huge joke. “Yon puppy?” he cried, with a loud laugh; “ain t. you ashamed to get off such nonsense ?" Mrs. Byrn did not seem to Lear her husband. Her frightened eyes were fixed npon Claire and Morley. As for tho latter, he took no notice of his friend; but still grasping tho trembling girl’s hand, j»oured his suit into her ear in -fow, fervent tones. "Oh! spare me!" murmured the girl, forcibly withdrawing her hand. “I could ajaver love rou. I------ ’ “You will, though," exclaimed Byra, with an oath, his face gleaming with anger. “Do you propose to trample upon my comxnands in tins manner?" He strode across the veranda, and seized ber by tho shoulder, while Mrs. Byrn rose, and tteew her arm around the trembling -creature's waist. “Thia must end," he cried; “I'll have no child's play. You’re my daughter, and ehall marry tho man I choose, and the sooner you make up your m'uid the better.

Wo could scarcely credit our escape. For n moment or two tho crew gazed silent and bewildered on tho receding surf, as if just aroused from a dream. Then, simul­ taneously. all broke into a huzza.

If she didn't stop wo would fire a blank cartridge'across ber bow. If she still refused to respond we would send a shot in front of her, and that would bring her to. Our long-range guns were of in­ valuable service in this business. When wotahailcd a ship we generally had ti>c United States flag flying, and kept it up until we were alongside. Then we would lower a boat and send nn officer ou board; but just before he board­ ed her the United»States flag would come down and up would go the Confederate flog. Our officer would go to the Captain of the ship we had caught, de­ mand his palters, order him into the boat, and bring him on board the Alabama. Ad­ miral Semmes always remained in his *abin when a capture was made, and tho Captains of our prizes wire taken before him there. He examined their paper* and questioned them closely. If the ship was found, to belong to a citizen of a neutral country—a fact which tho Captain’s papers would always reveal—she was at once re­ leased. When we discovered that we bad the jiroperty of a citizen of the United States, we took her officers, crew, and pas­ sengers (if she had any) on l>oard. Wethen went through her cargo and appropriated what we needed—for yon know we lived almoat entirely on our prizes. When we had all w«> wanted we set fire to the cap­ tured ship, and sailed away to look out for another.’* “What did yon do with your prisoners?" “The prisoners from the first half-dozen prizes were jrat in irons, in retaliation for the brutal treatment of the purser of the Sqmter by United States agpnts. They caught him as he stepped on shore from a French passenger «hrp, and threw him into a dungeon heavily manacled. After this retaliation all prisoners received kind treatment on tbe Alabama. We replenished our crew, as well ns our larder, from "Were you not afraid to trust men whom you had captured?" “O, no. A aailor is a sailor.

Though that was at night, we saved every one of h.r men.” As to the fight with tbe Kcant-irge. Captain Kell says that it-was neither the result of a reckless over­ confidence nor a mistake of judgment <>u the part of Admiral Senimes. As we knew nothing of the Kcariarge's chain armor, it was a delibernte chaioe of the-most h peful alternative in a d spenito situ ilion.

Tbe qppper bad so rolled on ber bottom as to s nously imix-de ber movements and to render nor­ thing like her former speed imjiosHible. To Cherbourg she went to apply for permission, to go into dock. The Kearsarge steamed into the harbor the third day after the Alnb ima arrived. The Alabama was unfit for cruising until she could >eceive repairs, which would recuire a mouth. By that time she would hare been hemmed in bv Northern men-of-war. The one Federal ship before ht-r had only a slight advan­ tage m size and was apparently about her -equal in strength. Admiral Semmvs-, knowing nothing of the conc?aled chain armor of bis adversary, detertuin- .1 that the l>est thing bo eoukl do was to force a fight at onoe. The duel was arranged by the Confederate agent-and the Federal Con­ sul at Cherbourg. The officers of the Alabama realized, that a hard and doubtful conflict awaited them. The story related by Surgeon Browne, of th* Kearearge. that they boasted et a dinner in Cherbourg that they would whip the Kearsarge, like the sur­ geon's other historical statements, is mere heareay. It has not the slightest founda­ tion in fart. IJ.-fore theffuattle Captain Kell wrote bis wife a letter, telling her tool it might be his last. The guEant young English surgeon, Llewellyn, made his will and sent a mes­ sage to the loved ones he was never to see again. * It was, perhsps, the most dramatic sea fight in history. It was witnessed by !&,OWU people on the housetops and heights nt Cherbourg, and it ended the career of the most famous cruiser that ever ploughed the sea.

You are probably aware that retailers always prefer to sell what they have in stock. and tbe only way for yoa to get what you want ia to insist npon having it . and go where you can get IL It is too often the case that imitators attempt to build up a trade upon another's reputation, and in doing so sacrifice the durability of their goods in order to secure the seeing points. Boots and Shoes are perhaps more susceptible to counterfeit than any other line of merchandise, and though you may buy a Boot or Shoe that looks fair in tbe hand, you find they are made with all the selling points looked after, but they do not stand die wear. The manufacturers of tbe and Mhoen Grand Kapids Hand Made Boots have done what has Dever been done before in the history of the trade; 4hey have established the sale of a line of hand made Boot* and Shoes which are sure to satisfy the wearer and cause him to demand the same again. At the name time to protect the public they have but one firm in Nashville where their* band made Boots and Shoes can be ' purchased, and who are authorized to sell and warrant each pair to be just as represented.

' Not an Indian or white min had oh-, served him. or been aroused to any sign of his escape thus far, and with strange ela­ tion he urged his hdrse into a swifter gallop. He bad proceeded a mile, or more, over the rocky, uneven ground at tbe base of the mountain, when' loud sounds and cries reached him. • His absence and escape had been dis­ covered, for louder ana louder grew the -cries. Yes, and in a few minutes tho whole murderous horde would be ou his track. He glanced xroffnd for a place of con­ cealment, but there was none in view. He urged his already tired horse by ward ond blow, but ho knew tho pour creature could not bold out against fresher ones. In the meantime the Indian camn was greatly disturbed.

There was mounting in haste, and. taking various directions, the Indians, with screech and whoop, followed on the track of the Cattle King. He bad placed several milts between them; had swung out on the boundless prairie, with only the light of the stars to guide him. His wean- horse galloped slower and slower. Still, be urgtyi it on. noting auxiouvly its heaving sides. Oh, for a place of ah -Iter! Far to his right he caught the faint outline of a growth •of timber, no doubt along some stream of water. Toward this he looked anxiously, and resolved to reach it. if possible. But liis horse galloped very slowly now, and glancing Imck he perceived the Indians at no great distance. Once more he urged it on. but it only .gave a gasp and sank down quite dead. Jasper leaped from its hwek.

The moat daring and successful robbery ever perpetrated In our ville occurred about 9 o’clock Thursday night. Shortly before that Mr. Townsend’s barnwas ret on fire and while the attention of our townspeople was attracted thereto, three men entered Will Bale’s store, hand cuffed and gaged Mr. B. and rifled his safe of about $800, part of which was his own and part American Express Co.’a money. The thieves were strangers to Mr. Bale, but he would be able to identify them. A well-dressed, but rather dudlsh looking fellow, who bailed from Ingiany called on each of our hotels respectively the other night, and failing to get a room with a stove in ir, sought a private house that would conform to his fas­ tidiousness. Falling, be stopped at Pete. Hud­ son’s. Pete, gave him to understand that no cranK from Ingiany could get Palmer House accomodations here. He turned iq at Pete’s. Subsequently we learned that he was on his way to a farmer’s in Sunfield to do a job of busking corn and digging potatoes. The liest prohibitionist just now appears to be the sore-headed republican: the meanest Is the democrat who will proselyte with the un­ wary republican until election day, and then march to the polls and vote the democratic ticket. The best republican is the man with a memory; the meanest is the man who will abandon bit colors just before the battle. The best democrat is the man who will get mad when you speak of the past; the meanest is the man who partially concedes the truth of his­ tory. but will plml along in the ranks because his father did. The best mugwump is the man who applauds civil service reform and at the same time will move heaven and earth to un­ dermine a republican office-holder: the mean­ est ia the man who will acknowledga bls mis­ take, but will hang on in the expectation that some day a miracle will be perfor med, and the earth will Jump over the moon. The best inde­ pendent Is the man who reports fifteen times * day that he is a republican and votes the demo­ cratic ticket every election; the man who ia a republican to-day anti a democrat to-morrow.

George C. Haddock. The exposures respecting the mysterious disappearance of Henry Peters, the brew­ ery driver who participated in the conspira­ cy, and the sensational suspicion of the neighbors that he was killed to insure his silence, made a profound impression to­ day. These facts bad never been pub­ lished, and they set the community to thinking. Now tho almost universal ver­ dict outside of tho saloon element is that Arensdorf will have great difficulty in se­ curing an acquittal unless he turns up the missing man. Of the two men who were seen running across tho bridge toward the brewery after Dr. Haddock fell Peters was certainly one. “Was Arensdorf tho other?" everybody is now asking, and inasmuch as Peters' absence can only bo explained by the brewery peo­ ple, and is not, tho answers can bo sur­ mised. Arensdorf says of tho disappearance of Peters: “Peters had been talking about leaving for some time. When the. injunc­ tion business commenced ho made up his mind he would be out of a job hero and would quit and get a job somewhere else. I had no fuss with him. Ono Saturday, about Aug. 20,1 think, I srxiko to him about tho hones' shoulders being sore. I told him that the team had never had sore shoulders before, aud that a man who claimed to know aa much as he did about horses should attend to thorn. He did not say anything, but wont to the office and said be wanted his money. Ho got it and went away. Mrs. Sarah Wallace, who lives opposite the brewery, says: “It was the evening of Aug. 23. I know that was the date bocause I wrote it down next morning. It was a hot night, and.. I got up and sat by tho open window of the front room up-stairs. A little after tho clock struck 10 I heard two men talking loud in the brewery. They seemed to be quarreling, and made a noise like a lot of dogs. From the noise they seemed to come together, and then ono of them said 'Oh!' twice so loud one might hnve beard him as far off as Pearl street Then I heard groans that sounded fainter nnd fainter. After all was quiet three men came out of tho east door and walked tow­ ard the street. They were talking, nnd one of them stopped on a little-dog, and the dog ran away yelping. The men walked back into tho brewery and called the dog in." Mrs. Wallace says that tho next mbrning she spoke to Mrs. Van Dugan about the noises in the brewery, ami that Mrs. Van Dugan, who then lived next door, said that she and her husband had heard them. Joseph Taylor, a next-door neighbor of Mrs. Wallace, says: “I can’t tell the date. It was quite a while after the Haddock murder. I was awakened by a noise. I at first thought it was* charivari party- I went out, and tho noise bad quieted. I heard two groans. They seemed to come from the brewery. I listened a while, and. not hearing any more, I went in and went to bed. The next day Mrs. Wallace told me what she had heard." Mr. Taylv said that the evening before he heard the groans be saw Henry standing on the beer wagon at the east door. He seemed to be quarreling with some ano in­ side, all of them talking loud. That was the last time he saw Henry. At a late hour to-night it vas reported that Davenport was Peters' home, and thnt ho could be found. Albert Kaschniski, alias “Bismarck." rnnkew the positive statement that he was hired, and tho money paid him, “to do up Haddock." He went down onto Water rireet for that purpose, intending to catch Haddock as ho came from the livery stslle. Ho farther says that he stood be­ hind a pile of posts, in waiting for Had­ dock, when the fatal shot was fired; that he fiaw tho man who fired the shot, and knows him personally. He has told the officers who committed tho murder. It is almost certain that the testimony of this man will invplvo a man other than John Arensdorf as the murderer, but this remains to be Been. Tho statement is made that a trav­ eling mnn, a stranger in Sioux City, was near the Columbia House *1 tho time the shooting took place, nnd saw the shot fired. He did not know the mnn who tired the shot, bnt hns pointed out John Arensdorf to the State's Attorney as the man. NEW SINISTER TO MEXICO.

You are probably aware that retailers always prefer to sell what they have Id stock, and the only way for you to get what you want is to insist upon baring it and go where you can get it It is too often the case that imitators attempt to build up b trade upon another's reputation, and -in doing so sacrifice tbo durability of their goods in order to secure the selling pointe. Boots and Shoes are perhaps more susceptible to counterfeit than any other line of merchandise,«and though you may buy a Boot or Shoe that looks fair in the hand, you find they are made with all the selling pointe looked after, bnt they do'not stand the wear. The manufacturers of the Grand Knpids Hand Hade Bool* and have done what baa never been done before in the history of die trade; they have established the sale of a line of band made Boots and Shoes which are sure to satisfy the wearer and cause him to demand the same again. At the same time to protect the public they hare but one firm in Nashville where their hand made Boots aud Shoes can bo purchased, and who are authorized to sell and warrant each pair to be just as represented.

EVERYTHING AT PROPORTIONATE PRICES. �But Profeerar timartce wm a live Yankee tanca farther wm of tha hold, fj that might lirectly upon tho thin plan king* of the ship. To this place f made my way, and looked down. I heard the plashing of water, and thought I could dg>ct a sound like the in­ coming of a tiny stream. At first I could boa nothing, oat us soon m I beckme used to the- dim light I could distinguish tb'i dim outlines of the boy some distance below me. He seemed to be witting upon the broken floor, with his feet stretched out against a cask. I called out to him, and thought he looked up. ■“Jack, are you there?" And he answered me in a very faint and wearv tone: “Yes; help me! For heaven's sake, hel$ me! Bring men, and bring a lantern—the ship has sprung ft leak." I hesitated, and he added in a more eager tone: “Make baste—I will try to bold it till you come back." I waited to hear no more, but hurried on deck as soon as possible, and returned with a lantern and three men. I leaped down beside the boy, and could scarcely believe tho evidence of my own senses. Three of the timbers were worm-eaten to the very heart, and one of the outer planks bad been broken, and would burst in any mo­ ment the boy might leave it, whose feet were braced against the Cask before him. Half a dozen little jets of water were streaming in about him, and he was wet to the skin. 1 saw that the plank must burst iu the moment tho struip was removed from it,* so I made my mcn-brace them­ selves against it before U lilted him up. Other men w'ero- called dawn with'plank*, and spikes, and adzes, and with much caro and much trouble we finally succeeded in stopping the leak and averting the danger. The plank which had been stove in was •ix,feet long by eight inches wide, and would let in a stream of water of that ca­ pacity. It would have been beyond our reach ere we could have discovered it, and we would certainly have sunk in a very short time. I knew it must be where tho iceberg struck us. Jack Withers was taken into tho cabin and managed to tell his story. Shortly after I put him into tho hold he crawled forward, and when he became used to the dim glimmer that came through tho dead­ lights, looking about for a snug place in which to lie, for his'limbs were stiff nnd sore, he went to sleep, and when he awoko ho heard a faint sound, like water stream­ ing through a small hole. Ho wont to the open space in the cargo and looked down, and he was rare that he saw a small jet of water springing up from the ship's bottom. He leaped down, and in a few minutes found that the timbers hail given away, and that the stream was increasing in size. He Slaced his hand upon the plank and found broken, aud also discovered that tho Srcssure of the water without was forcing inward. He had sense enough to see that if it gained an inch more it must all go and the ship be lost, and perhaps all hands perish. And he saw, too, that if ho could keep tho broken plank in its place, Jie might stop the incoming flood. So he sal himself upon it, and braced bis feet against the cask, and then called for help. Bathe wm so Jar away, so low down, with such a dense maM of the cargo about him, that his voice scarcely reached other cars than his own. Some of lhe men bean! him, but they thought he wa» talking to himself. And there he sat with his feet braced for four-and-twenty hours, with tho water spurting in tiny streams all over him, drenching him to the skin. Ho had thought several times of going to lhe batching and calling for help; bnt he knew that the broken plank would be forced in if be left it. for he could feel it heave beneath him. His strength wm failing him; hia limbs were racked with pain, but he would not give it up. I Mked hid[ if bo would not have given up if I had not come as I did. He answered that bo could not have done it while he had life ia him. He said he thought not of himself—he was ready to die—but ho would save the rest if he could, and be saved us, surely sored us all from a of a break in tho i which would have let tod Um> rooms throuch which oho p&ttcisd In bar marrv. childish play. Irani bo dreary. raid, and sitaut A Noble Heart I used to think, said Captail]. Streeter, snore passionate or Revere than I was. Men used to run away from me, and on more thanone occasion my life has been in dan­ ger from the violence of men whom I had abused. I used tho cat and rope's end al­ most as freely ns I used my tongue; nnd I used to wonder how it happened that I al­ ways had the luck to get such bed men. When I was about forty years of ago I took command of the ship Petersham. She wm an old craft, and had seen full os-much service as she was capable of seeing with safety. But her owners were willing to Crust a valuable cargo in her, bo I wouldn't refuse to trust myself. We wore bound to Liverpoc’, and nothing unusual happened until about the third day out, when we ran foul of a small iceberg. It was early in tho morning—before sunrise—and not above six or eight feet of ice was out of water, it having been, melted away in tho warm waten of the Gulf stream. I did not think we had sustained much injury, for tho shock was slight; but I wm very angry, and gave the “lookout" a severe punishment, without -stopping to inquire whether he could have seen the berg in season to escape it. My cabin boy was named Jack Withers. He was fourteen yean of age. and this was his first voyage. , Ho wm a bright, quick, intelligent lad, but I soon made myself be­ lieve that he bad an awful disposition. I fancied he wm the most stubborn piece of humanity I had ever come across. I made up my mind thnt ho had never been properly fiverned, and resolved to break him in. told him I should curb his temper before I had done with him. In reply, he told me that I might kill him if I liked; and I flogged him with the end of the mizzen top-gallant halyards till ho could hardly stand. I asked him if he had got enough, and he told me thnt I might flog him more if I wished it. I felt a strong inclination to throw the bqy overboard; but at that momeat he staggered back against the miz­ zen-mast from absolute weakness, and I left him to himself. When I reasoned calmly about the boy's disposition T wm forced to acknowledge that ho wm one of the smartest and most faithful lads I had seen. When I asked him to do anything he would be off like a rocket; but- when I roughly ordered him to do it, then came the disposition with which I had found fault. , One day, when it was near noon, I spoke to him, and told him to go below and bring • up my quadrant. Ho was looking over tho quarter-rail, aud I knew that he did not hear me; and the next time I spoko 1 ripped out. and intimated that if ho didn't move I'd help him. “I didn't hear you," ho said, with rather on independent tone. “No words," said I. “I suppose I can speak,” he retorted, moving slowly toward the companionway. His looks, words, and the slow, careless manner in which he moved, fired mo in a moment, and I grasped him by tho collar. “Speak to me again like that, and I will flog you within an .meh of your life," said I. “kou can flog away," he replied, firm and undaunted as a rock. And I did flog him. I caught up tho end ■of a ropy, and beat him till my arm fairly ached; but he never winced. “How's that?" said I. “There's a little more life in me you’d better flog out," wm the reply. A nd I beat him again. I beat him till he «ank from my hand on (he rail; and then I •ent one of the men for my quadrant. When it came, and I had adjusted it foemy observation, I found that the sun was alThis added fuel'to my madness, and quick­ ly seizing the lad by the collar, I led him to •the main hatchway, and had the hatch tak•eu off. I then thrust him down, and swore I would keep him there till his stubborn­ ness wa, broken. The hatch was then put on. and I went into the cabin. I suffered a good deni that afternoon,'not with any compunctions for what I bud done, but with ray own temper and bitternea*. It made mo mad to think I could Dot conquer the boy— that I ceuld not break down his cool oppo­ sition. But I'll do it, I said to myself; by the heavens above me, 1*11 starve him into it, or he shall die under lhe operation. After supper I went to the hatchway, and called out to him. but ho returned me no answer. So I cloted tho batch and went away. At 10 o'clock I called again, and again I got no answer. I might have thought that the flogging had taken away his senses, had not some of the men u»aured me that they had heard him not an hoar before talking to himself. 1 did not trouble him again till morning. After breakfast I went to lhe hatchway wnd called out to him once more. I heard moChing from him, nor could I see him. I had »<rt Been him since I put him down •there. I called out to him sevctal times, but ba would make no reply; aud yet the same men told me they had beard him talk­ ing that very morning' Ho seemed to be calling on them for heir-, but be would not ask me. “He'll beg before he’ll starve," I thought, and bo detaraduad to let him stay should eomo to tbo taztehwsv i -era 1 went any more. The away, and whe U ■tattled. I The boy lay sick in the cabin for many days—sick almost unto death; but I nuraed him all through his delirium; and when his rcMon returned, and be could sit up and talk, I bowed myself before him, and humbly asked his pardon for the wrong I had done him. He threw his arms about my neck, and told me if I would be good to him ho would Dever give me cause for offense; and added, m he sat up again. " I am not a coward—I couldn’t be a dog." From that hour I never forgot those words; and from that hour I have never struck a blow on board of my ship. I make my men feel that they are men—that I so regard them, nnd thnt I wish to make* them m comfortable and ns happy os possible; and I have not failed to'gain respect aud confidence. I give no undue license, and make my crew feel that they have a friend nnd a superior in the name person. For nine years I sailed in three different ships with the same crew. A man couldn't be hired to leave me save for an officer's berth. And Jack Withers remained with me thirteen years. He was my cabin-boy; one of the foremast hands; my second mate ; and the last time he sailed with me ho refused the command of a new bark, because be would not be separated from me.

There sat forty cats; yellow cats, white cats, strijied cats, big and little, the worst-looking cate in Yumei. They ware oil tied to stanchions, like so many cattle, with singing books propped up before them, tails toward tbo audience. The audience roared, and down went the curtain. Professor Smartee was indignant. “I must insist on your silence, or I can not go ou. You could have heard a pin drop, and the curtain rose again. Professor Smartee picked up a Binging book, glibly explaining how well his trained cols could sing. "Call for a lune, gentle­ men.” A voice demanded “Yankee Doodle.” The Profeseyr began clearing his throat and walking to and fro. “Give mo the pitch, ThomM,” he said, halting in front of a big tom-cat, at the some time slily stepping on his caudal appendage. “le-e-ow!" cried Tom, giving the pitch with a vengeance. / Screams of laughter greeted this per­ formance again, and down went the cur­ tain, bang.

Up rose the curtain. “Now let us sine!” So ho began to ring, rushing excitedly back and forth, and step­ ping on each of the forty tails m he went. Such a caterwauling wm never heard, nor such an uproar. The boys and men wore wild with delight.

Strange to say, from that time ho never touched cards or liquor again.. The wild youth settled down into a steady man. From a lawyer he roae to be a Judge, and grave, dignified Judge Robert Smart bore little resemblance to Professor Smar­ ter, tho categorical exhibitor; but, nt n great temperance meeting given in Central New York, he told of his own reformation and the story of his “Categorical Exhibi­ tion."

The fact that the old men were to be taken back sent consternation to the betirte of tho imported men, and they concluded (hat they bad belter tender their resignations. Mr. Cudahy, of Ar­ mour’s house, asked the men to remain, and head clerk Somers told them that if they remembered their numbers they could at any time Hecurecmploymcnt nt Armour's. No inducement could be given the men to stay. They flatly refused, and finally a train was sent for to take them to the city. One hundred and sixty Pinkerton men, under the command of "Capt. Frank Joy, were detailed to escort the men. They oc­ cupied the three rear coaches o! the train. At the Stock Yards Y, at Thirty-ninth idreet, the train was blocked for a moment by a freight train. Another detachment of guards wm taken on board at thia point, ned lhe train again started for the city. A crowd of about two hundred men and boys, who had been detained by passing trains, were gathered at the south aide of' tbo crossing. They broke out into a chorus of jeers and catcalls, but it is claimed by witnesses that no demonstra­ tion of actual violence was made. On the other hand, it is charged that they bom­ barded the train with rucks, and that Bomebody in the crowd fired a pistol. However this may be, the train hurl scarcely passed Halstad street crossing when a man on the roar platform fired a revolver into the crowd. The Pinkerton men in the rear followed with a regular volley of shots out of the windows of the train, aimed at tho crowd, and Terence Begley, a well-known citizen of Luke, was mortally wounded. Tho Pinkerton men, m eyo-wi'tneues say, fired in every direction, and did not cease the fusillade until Wallnce street, three blocks distant from Hoisted street, wm reached. Terence Begley, the fatally injured man, was loading his horse slowly westward on 'Hoisted street when the shot wm fired. He dropped the bridle and exclaimed: “I am shot!’' A brakeman named Russell heipe 1 the wounded man to a saloon near by, where a hasty examination wm made. The wound wife not discovered, and Begley wus told that he was only frightened. In a dozed manner ho started toward Ftannlgan’s [lacking bouse. He had taken but a few steps when he suddenly fell to the ground. A wagon was procured ami he was taken to his home, 4211 Emerald avenue, where a thorough examination showed that the bul­ let had passed through the abdomen, en­ tering at the right side and coming out on the left side, glancing upward. Late in the night the unfortunate man died..Previous­ ly his ante-mortem statement was taken, it is as follows: “My name is Terence Begley. I am 41 yearn old.

At about 12 o'clock I was going with n cripple cart containing one „ hog to Shoenenion's slaughter­ house, near Fortieth and Halsted streets, in tho Town of Lake, county of Cook, und State of Illinois. I had passed the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern crossing, and wm going north and was near Mr. M. Schmidt’s saloon on Halsted street, and was leading my horse by tho head. Im'mediately after passing the crossing a passenger train of the Lake Shore nnd Michigan Southern Railroad camo from the Stock Yards east filled with Pink­ erton policemen. As they passed this crossing, where a large crowd hud congre­ gated, cries of ‘Seal* were heard from the crowd. Ab the rear end of the train pass­ ed the east nido of Halsted street four or five or six shots were fired. I saw quite a number of Pinkerton men standing on the rear platform of tho train. I saw no one s^oot, but heard the shots and felt that 1 was shot, and left my horse nnd ran to Shoeneman's (daughter-house and sat down and told Pat Martin, a i>oUce officer of the Town of Lake, that I vflfe shot.

Begley was too weak to sign bin name, but touched the [>en. mid his mark was made. The witnesses were J. I’. Mulcahey, Sergeant of Police; Frank Becker, and WilNam Ryan. Immediately after the shooting the great­ est excitement prevailed, and bad Capt. Markey, of the Town oL Lake Police, stopped the train, ns wm suggested, gen­ eral riot nnd bloodshed would have been inevitable. The Udptain let the train pass, and telephoned to the Twenty-second Street Police Station. From this place and from the Armory squads of officers were immediately «hspatcii(-d to the scene. Excited groups of people assembled on every corner and expressed by word and action the deepest indignation. There were i»o violent demonstrations, but the word w'&it around that if the Pinkerton men who did tbo shooting were brought back aud loilgi-d in the town jail there would be trouble before morning. The train was met ut Harrison street by tho city police, and 123 Pinkerton mon and about sixty men ami boys who had left em­ ployment in the stock yards were marched to the Armory. The workmen, being un­ armed. were at once discharged. The •Pinkerton men then arranged themselves in lines, and three sm.il! boys from Lake, John Boland, Timothy Neiland, and B. Hickey, who claimed to have seen the shooting, were told to identify the men who hod fired. out of the crowd Joseph Hill and Wolter Andrews, both young men. After the identification of the two tho Pinkerton men were marched into the [tolioc court-room, where each man’s rifle ar pistol was exam­ ined. Only one weapon that showed evi­ dence of haring recently been discharged wm found. An empty shell wu found in the Winchester carried bv Emmons Shaw. After the oxaminaton William A. Pinker­ ton stepped forward, calling out; “All who fired riiotH from the cars stand up like men. There’s nothing to be fright­ ened about" Pinkerton. His name was Robert J. Bartram.. “There murt be more,” said Mr. Pinker­ ton. “fw about twelve ahota were fired." Two beardless young fellows who were sitting together, liiebor.l D. LoIim and Guy Stivers, then went forward.

It is very unfortunate that just when the labor trou­ bles were being amicably adjusted, a few bad men, intrusted with guns and tempo­ rary authority, should, by an act both foolish and criminal, stir up anew the spirit of re­ sentment. In such times only cool-headed men should bv intrusted either with author­ ity or fire-arms, as action such os that yes­ terday not only incites the people against the guardians of tho [>eace, but tends to bring them into contempt.

[Beaumont (Texas) epectat] Refugees from the flooded district about Sabine Pass continue to arrive on every small craft that comes Bp* lhe river. It is estimated by persons here who have been over the scenes of devastation at Sabine Pass, Johnson’s Bayou, and Taylor's feayou that the death-list will exceed 250 covered and buried around Johnson's Bayou, and fifty-four bodies thus far have been buried at Sabine, while suty-^k persons ore still missing at Sabine, asfl these art’, of course, dead, m it would bo impossible for any human being to survive thus long in tho swamp nnd lagoons w.thout food or shelter. An examination of the country back of Sabine and immediately in the vicinity of Beaumont shows tint the salt water came back from tho coart fully forty miles through the swamp*, and hundreds' of thomands of acres are still submerged by water that wm forced back and has no outlet. This fact make* the search for bodies very difficult. Carcasses of thousands of drowned cattle, hogs, horoes, and fowl ore strewn everywhere, and clouds of sen gulls and buzzards hover over the desolate country for an area of thirty square miles. ■ It is known that the number of sufferers around Jehnson's Bayou, who have lost everything, will reach I while, the Sabine sufferers number 30b, one half of whom are now iu Beau.mont. Parties who returned to-day from tho Johnson Bayou district say that sixty persons are still . missing theje, and tho searching parties have almost reached the conclusion that many of these missing were diowned and their bodies carried out sea by the root ding waves. A correspondent who has just returned from Sabine Pass telegraphs from Orange that the turkey-buzzards are Roaring over Sabine for miles around on land and water. It is one vast c.hnrnel-bouse.

Only about twenty-five bodies have thus far been recovered. There is not one sound house in the town of Sabine.. The residences of Dr. Gailland and Editor McClanahan are tho only ones that con bo repaired. Every other house is an absolute wreck. This, in brief, is the story of the storm. Innumer­ able touching, heartrending incidents of the storm are related by the survivors. One house containing fourteen colored [tereons wm ween to go down with a crash, and every one of them was lost. Jncidenls are related of husbands hashing wives aud children to floating wrecks and then seeing them killed by heavy logs being di^ven against them. The damage to property can only lie estimated by the value of the town, for all ia lost The Sabine and East Texas Railroad track is washed out for u distance of ten miles. The tree* have floated off, and tho rails nrv twisted like wires, the effect of the great hurricane. Millions of dead fish were CMt up by tho waves, and thousands of birds also strew the ground. A woman in a perfectly nude state was found roaming around on the prairie yesterday, five miles from Sabine. She was demented, and could not tell her uume. When tho Government boat Pen­ rose reached there Columbus Martie wm found rowing around the delta looking for the todies of his family. He said: “My­ self, wife, nnd three children were clinging to a floating roof which was gradually breaking to pieces. Ono of the little ones drappedoff and then another. 1 wm bolding the youngest, aud soon my wife said, ‘Goodby, huahaud; I am going.* I could not reach her. The .piece of the ioof supporting hex broke off and she sank before my eyes. I held onto the voungest child, named Pearl, some time longer. Tho child, tuldressing me, said: I'm tired; won't you walk with me? The piece of the roof I wm on now was crumbling to pieces. I told tho little ono to kiss me. She put both her little arms around my neck, gave me a big squeeze, and just then a wave dashed us off, and I saw her no more. Great God! Why didn't 1 go down, too?" He wav pressed to go ou boon! the Penrose, but refused, saying: “Here among these la­ goons arc the bodies of my wife and chil­ dren, nnd here will I stop until I can find them." No tongue can tell how the people have suffered during the past few days. In monv cases the dead ones axe considered tho lucky ones. [From the Chicago Daily Nowaj Regarding the great stock yards strike which has just terminated, a short review of its history and the causes which led to it may not prove uninteresting, because it occupies a peculiar position in the history of great labor troubles. It may be said to bo the first occasion on which a large body of organized men retreated in -good order, with ranks unbroken. In this respect it is entirely different from ita great predecessor of 1K73-U0. In the early months of IWJ a number of meq met and organized the . Butchers' Union. Previous to the organization at this union there hod been no combined action on the port of the men employed in the packing industry. This union was a success from tho start.. It rapidly drew into its circles the large majority of the 10.000 men employed in the yards. Con­ fiding in ita strength, the nnion demuided and obtained from the packers an increase of *25 cents a day. This was in August. The union grew in power and began to arrogate to itself supreme control of the whole packing industry. Jack Hurt, a butcher in tho employ of Armour, was asked to join the'union and refused. Sev­ eral others declined to join, and the union demanded their discharge, laying down the rule that non-union men’should not work with union men. The packers called a Halt, and refused to accede to a demand they considered flagrantly unjust They bad foreseen trouble, and had per­ fected an organization similar to -the one now existing. ' They resolved not to recog­ nize the union m a body, and prepirel for the strike which was inevitable. The men struck on December 18, 1879. No body of men were ever more confident of success. The same arguments and statements were mode by both sides as were advanced in the last strike. The men claimed that they were indispensable, and that R impos­ sible to fill their places. The packers claimed that they were paying bigger wages than any others in the country. They cilied attention to the advantages of West­ ern packing points, and threatened to move their business to these, tho natural loca­ tions of the packing industry. The news­ papers deplored the situation, and predict­ ed the decadence of Chicago a* a packing center. . The fight was a long and bitter one. The men exhausted all the weapons w»ed in former strikes and invented new ones. As fast as experts were obtained they were in­ duced to quit, the union paying them their wages in fall. The packsra advertised all over the country for help, and hundreds of green hands [mured in from nil directions. They were put to work as fMt as they ap­ plied. All lhe packers were not involved in the struggle, several of the smaller firms acceding to the demand of the union. The following firms were directly iutcrested: Armour & Co., Ricker Provision Company. Fowler Brothers, Ch; pin A Cudahy, Allerton Packing Com­ pany, Jones A Stiles, and Baldwin. The Butchers* Union was rapidly becom­ ing demoralized. Their fund* vanished, and the families of the strikers were in want of food. One by one they joined the ranks of the so-called “scabs," a word which had just entered the vocabulary of labor nomenclature. As the cause waned, the remnant of the strikers grew more dsep^rate. AsKaulta and overt acts in­ creased. Several men were shot at; oth­ ers were stabbed and cut. The whole town of Lake was permeated with lav larnites. Meanwhile the packers were having things all their own way. House after house joined the non­ Is It Yellow Fever I union movement.

He reasoned with great ingenuity, and, though hia reasoning wm not abstruse or very profound, it never wanted vigor, plausibility and effectiveness. He ad­ dressed himself to the good sense and discrimination of the judge and jury, and, though in a high degree poetical, he seldom or never indulged in the nicro ornaments of imagination or the “dazzling fence of argument" In early life ho had devoted himself to the rinses, and threw out from time to time poetical effusions which- indicated .10 common talent Like all ardent and imaginative minds, he loved to bathe in the Pierian fountains and to repose by the waterfalls of Helicon. The law,'however. i» inimical to poetry or the indulgence of poetical feeling, and, like Blackstone and Story, ho abandoned the muses and devoted himself to the arid study and labori­ ous practice of law, which he regarded with reverence ns a science, and be­ lieved, with Hooker, that “her seat was the bosom of God, her voice the har­ mony of the world." His poetical pre­ dilections, however, did not altogether forsake him. and his beantifui lyric, the “Star-Spangled Banner," written in the meridian of life, showed that ho could not wholly abandon his first love. And yet it will appear strange that, With all his poetical fervor, his speeches at the bar and elsewhere displayed nothing of a poetical temperament,'and were dis­ tinguished only for great simplicity of style, with scarcely any attempt at or­ nament He believed that good sense nnd argument, not embe lishment at •the bar, were thoyrrincipium et /ous of his good speaking as well as writing.

The Washington rices used to be celebrated and attended by the leading public and private citizens. Mr. Madi­ son would drive out to tho course in a chariot drawn by four grays, and Mrs. Ogle Taylor in a carriage drawn by four bays. There was no stand for tho ladies, and their carriages were allow­ ed on the inside of the course. Dr. Thornton, the Commissioner of Pa­ tents, wm n great patron of horse­ racing, bnt his nags were generally beaten. At the dedication of tho Washington National Monument, invitations were . sent to nearly three hundred members of the Washington family, by direct descent or by collateral marriages. Thirteen gentlemen l>earing the name of Washington sat together on the floor of the House of Representatives on the occasion of the dedicatory ser­ vices, and beflides, irt the gallery there were thirty ladies who claimed kindred with the family. Washington, of course, had no direct descendants, but he had two half-brothers and ono half­ sister. as well as two full brothers and one fall sister, all of whom had families. His sister Betty married and luff! a largo family. His two brothers, Charles and Samuel, both married and settled in the valley of Virginia on large and most productive farms. Charlestown, the county soil of Jefferson County, W. Va., was named after Charles Washington. His brother Samuel owned an adjoining plantation of near­ ly 2,000 acres of land. Samuel wm married five times, thongh he died at the age of forty-six. The descendants of Samuel are very numerous. Those of Charles, hou ever, ate com­ paratively few. The Washington families are most numerous iu Virginia. Tennessee, and Ken­ tucky, but a considerable number of them also reside in Ohio, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, California, and Georgia, where they have usually settled on the most productive farm lando.

Little children have not tho mental resbnrees nor the philosophy of grown-up invalids, and if too young or too weak to read, it goes hard with the patient—aud with the nurse, too—if he must lie still all day, sighing and moan­ ing ; “Oh, I wish I could get up"— “Uh, dear, I am so tired of this old lied"—“Oh, when can I go down stairs?” aud all the fretful lamenta­ tions familiar to mothers and nurses. As it taxes one’s ingenuity to amuse and pacify these little -patients, I will mention two or three things I did for my bor when ho wm recovering from diphtheria, hoping the experience may be < f use to some other mother. Of course, I soon exhausted stories, and the mild play with such toys m weak little hands can manage, and the old cry of “Oh, mamma, what can I do?" set in again. The walls of the sick room were of bare plaster—m all sick-room walls should be, for a coat of lime makes them all fresh and pure again—and when my weary child sighed, among his many sighs, for “something new in the room to look at," I bethought me of a roll of pictures saved from a year’s numbers of a London illustrated news­ paper. These I brought into the sick­ room and pinned all about the walls. The effect wm very enlivening. The room seemed suddenly enlarged—as if it all at once opened out upon all the quarters of the globe. There were broad landscapes and wild marine scenes, battlefields. Christmas firesides, noble jiortraits of horses and dogs, brave generals and fair women, pretty groups of children, and tumbling waterfalls. The small invalid wm de­ lighted. Then I brought him a long, light stick—a piece of inch molding, it happened to l>e—with which he could point at the different pictures while he asked m many questions m he liked. This stick wm’ an inspiration. It was like having arms six feet long, and the boy had seen great fun "visiting all around tho world" with it, m he ex­ pressed it As long as he staid in bed the first demand in the morning wm, “Give me my poke-stick, mamma.” As I hod to be out of the room a good deal. I fixed a call-bell ou tho foot of the bed, and we arranged a code of signals that proved quite entertaining. Three taps on the IhjII with the poke­ stick meant a drink of water; four taps, a clean handkerchief; six taps meant “I am hungry? eight taps, "What time is it?" and twelve taps signified that tho pillows needed shak­ ing up, and the bed straightened gen­ erally. After awhile I attached to the stick a bit of string with a bent-pin at­ tached, scattered some old toys about the floor, ami the invalid had a grand season of "fishing."' It was amusing to see how shy gome of the fish were, and what a time it was before they would consent toxbite. And then the excite­ ment of landing them in, tho bed— which was now a bort, of course—wm immense. I am sure that these little beguilements helped on my boy’s recovery, for they kept his spirits iu a cheerful con­ dition, and cheerfulness is a very help­ ful medicine. — E. H.

J• W H who had been in sfewdaysprevionsly, inquiring express rates to Lower Cali­ fornia, approached his office with a package which he stated was the one that he desired rates upon; Mr Bale turned to look np the rate when the stranger hit him savagely upon the head with the package—which was simply a block of heavy wood wrapped in paper—and seized him bv the throat, and slipped a wooden gag into his month. Another man came suddenly upon the scene, Mr. Bale was thrown upon the floor and hand-cuffed to the safe, after wh>ch the robbery was com­ mitted. 81,200 belonging to the A. M. E. Co. and $145 to Mr. Bale was taken. During the robbery a third man stood guard at the rent door. The villians departed and Mr. Bale’s condition was pitiful. The gag pre­ vented any outcry and was slowly suf­ focating him. Fortunately his heels were close to' a partition which he kicked tn pieces, and attracted the at­ tention of Chas. Hull who was passing. When the true condition of affairs was ascertained willing hands lent their assistance to relieve the unfortunate man. The safe was tipped up and a blacksmith rent asunder the cruel hand­ cuffs. . ’Eaton county officials have made strenuous efforts to apprehend the high­ waymen, but without avail up to this writing.

Upon tho return to this city Messenger Fotheringham went immediately to the office of Superintendent Damsel of theexpress comjmuy and was closeted with him for some time. Later Mr. Damsel gave tne following report of the robbery as obtained from the messenger: * “Mr. Fotheringham Bays that as he was about to go out on hi* run a mart came tohim with a letter purporting to be signed, by myself and Mr. Barrett, instructing him to take the bearer, Jjni Cummings, on his run as far as Fierce City for instructions. In accordance with the proixsted in­ structions, Fotheringham took the stranger and set him to work checking up. Then he began his own work. Fotheringham was standing with his back to the stronger, his coat off, and the handle of hi* revolver sticking out of his pistol pocket. About ten. or fifteen miles out of. the Union depot he was attacked from the rear. Tjio stranger gripped bis neck with one band and. grasped his revolver with the other. Be­ fore Fotheringham realized what was be­ ing done he wm thrown to the floor. Hestruggled and fought, but the stranger ovex-came him and bound him hand and foot.. Then he put a gag in bis mouth and tied. . him to the safe. “Having secured the messenger, ho pro­ ceeded to go through the safe and take all there was in it. Several pouches of silver he cut open, but left them when he found what they vonhiined. At Mincke some men working in a lima-kiln flagged the train on account of an obstruction on the track. While it was standing still some one tried’ to get into the express car, but the robber stood over Fotheringham with a revolver and prevented hi* making any effort to cry out. At or about Pacific Station the robber took bi* plunder, and opening tho frontdoor of the car went out ou the platform and. closed the door after him. What he did. after that Fotheringham does not know. Re­ lay on the floor of the car until the train, reached St Clair, when be was able to get the gag out of his mouth and cry out for assistance. The trainmen, hearing him. endeavored to get in the back door, and: finding it locked, went roend to the front door, which the robber had left open. They released him. “Fotheringham says lhe robber was about. six feet high, 24 year* of age, and weighed alxiut 200 pounds. He had dark, straight: hair, cat close; a thin mustache, a tow forehead, wore dark clothes, and a dark­ gray overcoat. Fotheringham was gagged with handkerchief* tied in knot* forced, into his mouth and bound around his bead. His hands were tied together behind hi«bax-k with a silk handkerchief. Hi* leg* w re fastened with strops taken from. valise* in the car and with corih, and with the heavy strap which was around the safe. He was tied to the handle of tho safe." Mr. Damsel added, in reply to questions,, that it is customary to send new men out on the road with messengera to receive in­ struction*. and that with such orders os Fotheringham says were presented to him by the robber would be issued either by Route Agent Barrett or himeelf. He alaosaid that Fotheringham telegraphed intotbe company's depot manager that he had l>cen robbed. Mr. Damsel says he cannot ^t name the amount stolen, but a* the run was unusually heavy he thinks it will ex­ ceed $40,000. Not much is known here of Fothering­ ham. Ho is twenty-four old and lives at Ste. Genevieve, Mo. He had only been on the Frisco run since June. He worked for the company prior to that time in Kansas City. He had runs on the South­ ern Kansas, the Fort Scott and Gulf, and the Missouri, Kansas and Texas roads. He had been working for the company in all about four years. Superintendent Damsel and Private De­ tective Newcomb bad a consultation with the police authorities this afternoon, but at the present writing no formal demand for aid ha* been made upon them by the ex­ press company. Mr. Damsel says that every effort is being made to obtain a clew to the robber and to procure his arrest. IL seems that so far Mr. Damae! and his ud- • theory, but they will not commit them­ selves fully on this point. Another account of the robbery than that, of Mr. Damsel says that it wm the con­ ductor who tried the door of the expre** car while the train was standing still near Mincke. Finding it locked, and supixising the messenger to be busy, be did not ask for admittance. At St. Clair he again tried the door, anti again found it lockedHe listened for a minute, and heard tbo messenger struggling to free himself, and making all the noise possible by kicking with his feel against the side of th* car. The conductor suspected soimthing wrong, aud buret the door open, finding Fother­ ingham m above described, He was quick­ ly released, and told his experience. Tho robber had got a start of fully two hours,, and it was useless to run back to try to find, him. The train therefore proceeded on it* way.

PART L It waa a long, low house of rough gray stone, with only one story and a high jieaked roof. • It was more than a hundred years old, ■and had been a famous tavern away back in revolutionary ages. One of Washing­ ton's generals had passed a night under ita roof, it wav Said. • The old house was now occupied by a widow, a self-styled invalid, and her two nieces. Mrs. Atkinson had come to the mountains ■of this Southern State for her health, bnt finding tbe noise and gsyctyof the fashion­ able hotel too much for her nerves, and seeing in one of her drive* about tho coun­ try tlds old house standing empty, she had instituted a search for its oaner, found him, taken the house for six months, and removed from tbe hotel as soon ns possi­ ble. with her two nieces and three servants. The departure of» these young ladies from tho hotel was secretly yet rincerely deplored by every unmarried man in tho house,- for they were, if not absolutely beautiful, yet undeniably pretty, and though rather reserved, ;>crfoctly amiable and wellbred. The family had now been some six weeks or more in it's home among the mountains, and (hough they were five miles away from tbo hotel, and three from the postoffice, the .girls had not as yet shown any signs of loneliness. It was September now. It had been clear in the morning, but a shower had come up rather suddenly about an hour ago; it had not cleared off, but settled down into a driving storm of wind and rain. within it was pleasant enough. On tho broad, open hearth a fire of pine stick* wa* annppmg cheerily;, be fore the fire was a rug of white bear-skin. ' Tho round table, covered with a crimson em­ broidered cloth, was fairly loaded down with books, pajxirs aud magazine*. There -was a big deep lounge, a screen artistically painted, aud any number of comfortable dasy ohaira. Before tbe fire, bending over an embroidery frame, a girl Hat working diligently. Another girl was seated on tho broad, cushioned window-seat, looking ont absently at tho dripping, swaying, moaning pine trees. The worker at the fire looks up now, suddenly puts down her work, and going un to tho watcher at tho window, says affectionately: “Does tho rain moke you melancholy, Nell? I wish for your sake Aunt Kate would have allowed us to stay on nt tho hotel. It is such a pity you should miss all tho hops, the bowling, tho tennis, nnd” —with a laugh—“tho nice young men." Tho othy turns a lovely little mignonno face up nt her companion. "As if I cared for ths dancing and the men. I have you, Conny, and that's all I want. I never expected to be with you again—you know your aunt never could en­ dure me." Constance turns red up to the roots of her hair. “Aunt Jiate is very peculiar in her likes and dislikes, Nell, but she is your sunt, Nell, ns much ns mine. And she will do you justice one of these day*, Nell, I nm sure. I don't understand how anybody could dislike you." “Aunt Kate dislikes mo, Conny; always .ha* and always will. I think the reason onuirt be that my mother married a poor man. A 'beggarly artist,’ Annt Kate once called my father to my face, while she and your mother made very grand matches. Well, Conny, it is rather too bad; but tho rin* of tbe fathir, and mother, too, in thia case, are visited upon tbo children, you know." Then, turning her face to the •window asrin, *he continued: “I wonder if. vrhile we hare been talking, that tramp has gone away again? But I don't think ho has; I kept one eye on the window all the limo we have been talking together." “What tramp, Nell? tramps never come "This was a tramp.

The bride­ groom was rather sullen, and partook so freely of champagne that he became rather boozy. Tho Confederate female spies arrest­ ed at Washington became so numerous towards the close of 1862 that tho resi­ dence of one of them, Mrs. Groenhow, was used as a prison for their deten­ tion, find placed under a special milita­ ry guard, which occupied tents pitched in the garden. Mrs. IJoso O. H. Greenhow was a Southern widow, whose husband had been for some years in tho State Department, and had written a valuable report ou Oregon. She had with her her young daughter Rose, and it was known that she had on several occasions obtained important informa­ tion from members of Congress and military officers, which she sent to Richmond. Another prominent agent of the Confederacy was Mrs. Baxley, formerly a resident of Baltimore, who had made several trips to Richmond, carrying correspondence, quinine, per­ cussion cops, and other munitions of war, while she worn skirta of gray army cloth, simply basted together, that it might be converted into uniforms. Al­ though the weather was cold, she re­ fused to sleep under a blanket marked “U. S." Mrs. Betty A. Hasler, Miss Lilly A. Mackie, Mrs. Phillips, and Mrs. Levy had all been moje or leas prominent in Southern society at Wash­ ington, and had made trips over tho underground railroad between Alexan­ dria and Richmond, and an English lady, Mrs. Ellens Low, who had b?cn arrested at Boston with her son, who had crossed the ocean bearing a com­ mission in the Confederate army. Miss E. M. Poole, alias Stewart, had been very successful in carrying contraband information and funds between the two camps, and when arrested the last time there was found concealed on her per­ son $7300 of unexpended funds. Some of these ladies were so defiant that they would stand at the windows and wave small Confederate flags, or converse by deaf and dumb signs with* friends on the opposite side of the street To prevent this, tbe front windows were (warded up. aud finally, when the ac­ commodations became too restricted, the 'inmates were taken to the old capi­ tal, which had been fitted up as a prison. The lessons of tho first year of the rebellion taught tho loyal men of the land that it required'all the strength of a united North to preserve the Union and uphold the Government. We had, at the commencement of tbe war, a united North. The culmination of treason in its attack on Fort Sumter kindled a blaze of indignant patriotism over the whole North, East, and West All merely partisan feeling waamerged in higher and noble, impulses. All good and true men, in imitation of their ancestors at Concord aud Lexing­ ton in 1776, rushed to arms or con­ tributed money.

THE 00UBTY ELECTION. Election is over and the Republicans of Barry county have great reason to be proud of the victory they achieved on Tuesday last. For years Barry Co. has been considered one of tbe strong holds of Greenbackism id Michigan. Four years ago the opposition gave u majority of 563 in favor of Begole for Governor; in ’84 the party had a plural­ ity of 379 for the same oftioar, but on Tuesday the tables were turned aud the Republicans walkMoff with a plu­ rality of 108 in favor of Lace. For the office of governor in 1882 the Republi­ cans polled 2259 votes to the Fusionists 2823. Tuesday the first named party polled 2673 votes, tbe latter 2565. These figures indicate that several hundred of the Fusionists of four years ago have come oyer on the Republican side. left here a new Cincinnati safe for J. H. McKelvey of Maple Grove.

Ona morning in May. .1861, a knot of young men were standing at the corner of the principal street in a little town not f.ir from Rostan, excite Uy disc&ssing the latest aaws, for tho toreh of war had been lighted at Fort Sumter, and tho red glow filled tho land, putting a stop for a time to all basikmm whatever; till the first volunteer ar­ mies had been enlisted and sent out to crush tho rebellion. Among the rest, not talking, but with eager eyes and caw drink­ ing m all that wm said, stood Albert 0., a boy of sixteen years, son of the wealthiest man in toe place. “I would onlist thii! minute,” | said CharIcy B., “if there was nay ono to look after my dear old mother. Sue is so feeble now, and her little property is not quite enough to keep her, so how can I go?" “I d^n't see bow you can. Charley," spoke another young man; “but I wish you could, for you mid 1 have been chums ao tong that I would be glad if we could be oom reden still.” “I want to go,” said an older man in the group—a grave, sod-looking man; “I know if my Mary was living she’d tell me to go at once nud serve my country; but bow can X leave my motherless children?" “I thought their aunt Emily took care of them,” remarked another. “So she does, but she could not afford to do so far nothing. I pay her $200 a yeew ta their board and what teaching she cod give them till they can go to toe puMio •chool. If they were old snopgh dsnny could teach and Willie could work bi a f toem•elves; but now they are too for me to leave." . “And I," said another. And they talked about the nSw company, and who of their town's people were to be officen and so on till ono erf them turned to tho boy, asking: “Is it true. Albert, that your father’s bo A-keeper i* going as ensign?" “I don’t know," replied Albert, “ho has said nothing to me about it." “Yes, ho is going," said ono of the men. “I went to the store no* au hour since and he told me bo.” So the talk went on, and Albert listened •while, but presently left them, and going to his father's house went to bis own room, where he. locked himself in; and sitting down by the window, gazed out upon tho sky, apparently lost in anxious thought At last his face brightened; au earnest, ardent look camo into his dork blue eyes; ho Started up and walked around the room ex•ftedly. Then leaving his room ho went to his father's office. Mr. O. was very much oc­ cupied, and Albert waited as patiently as bo could till too visitor was gone, then went in. “Father,” said he, “can you spare five minutes to talk with me?” “Yes, my sou. ten if you like." “In'it true, father, that Mr. J., your book­ keeper, has enlisted?" “Yes, Albert, ho is going as ensign; he told me so this morning, and I kava sent money up to your mother not an hour ago, that she may buy the material for the regi­ mental colors. Y'our sister* will help Her make the flag.and all must bo ready in four days to present to the regiment before they leave.” ' This ^ews was rcry interesting to Albert, but he did not comment omit; his mind was fall of another subject. “Father," he asked; “hare you engaged another book-keeper?” “No, I have not. I think I tuurt send to Boston and advertis--? for one.” “Oh. don’t, father! Oh, how I wish— ah. if I dare to *ey it!” Hit father looked at him in surprise, and said kindly: “You surely know, my son, that you may dare w anything to mo.” “O, father," the boy exclaimed impetu­ ously, •you know how much I wish to serve my county? And you said 1 was not old •nough to go to war, but might prove my­ self a better patriot l>y staying at home— end now here is a chance to do something: •nd. father, do not refuse to let mo, for if you do I shall break my heart." ■My dear Albert, yon know I never re­ fuse you anything reasonable.” “I know it, father, but this—O. I know rwhat you will say! But I can’t help Father, this morning I heard some of tbe men talking, and there were two who wanted to enlist and would, but ono had an infirm old mother to look after, and tho other '.iad two little children—motherless children—and m they could not either of them go, though they a anted to so much."’ "And so you want mo to provide for the old mother end two littte children? Well, have quit* enough on your bands as it u — ao many to hdljt—bat. father, I want to take care of them myself.” “Yon take care of them!" said the father, fa astonishment. A MELODRAMATIC, OS Well AS Bcientific, picture of the inconvenience to tbe living arising from the presence of the dead is drawn by Dr. Eklund, of Stockholm. To remedy the evils re­ sulting from delay in burials and sub­ sequent decomposition, the doctor pro­ poses to render some simple process of embalmment compulsory, and suggests the creation of a corps of embalmers for thit purpose. This plan rather runs counter to modern views on the sublet of burial, which tend to favor methods allowing of rapid disintegra­ tion, and is, besides, far inferior to cremation both from a financial and a practical point of viow. Notwith­ standing all that may be urged—and urged truly—against the practice of inhumation, it is a matter wherein prejudice, custom, and a dislike of innovation will long hold scientific arguments and methods in check, to the greater or less detriment of public health. .

He will have to come many, many days before he mange my pet gronouille." What Is Culture! This is a very large question, but we must help along our bashful young friend: “Will you kindly inform a young man what the essentials of ‘culture’ are? also what are proper works to read? I desire to be a good conversa­ tionalist, but always feel ill at ease and urn bashful. Can you suggest a way to successfully overcome the latter?” Ralph Waldo ‘ Emerson prefixes to an essay on culture these lines, from which, young man, you may try to get a general notion of what culture is: Thfi Niagara Falls (Hovta.

Pure Medicines, Wines and Liquors, Do these lines only servo to mystifv the subject still further for you? Well, that is becaus'j Emerson himself could not exactly define culture, and if you read his essay through you would prpbably be even more iu the dark. Indeod, it does not seem to us the wonderful work the disciples and fol­ lowers of the Concord philosopher thought it to be at tho time it first ap­ peared. Culture, dear boy, has come to be a cant term, and no end of nonsense and platitude has been written and talked about it since the day when Emerson made it tho theme of Boston discussion. You want to know what is necessary to make you a cultivated man. Everything within the range of knowl­ edge, of thought, and of taste is neces­ sary. All good books will help you |o the end, aud some which are not good may assist you in the way of compari­ son. Association with cultivated peo­ ple and conversation with them are indispensable aids. The taste to dis­ criminate tbe good from the bad in all art is essential. Social refinement is requisite. But nobody can knofc it alh You can learn only a very little, but what you learn learn thoroughly. Be care­ ful to read tbe books of tho masters of the 1 terary art, so that you will be in­ sensibly affected by their style until you come at last to distinguish and Krefer and require the superior sort ! you go to bear music, see to it that it is the music of the great artists, and take pains to look at good pictures, for gradually! you will find yourself learn­ ing to enjov them alone. And so in all things seek the best and reject tho poor and commonplace. As to conversation, you will get along well enough in that when you become interested in what interests cultivated people^ You will forget yourself in your airsorption in what you aro talking about. That is the way to overcome bashfulness, which comes from self-consciousness. Remember that you are not so important <n other people's eyes as in your own, and they tire not singling you out for ob­ servation. You are onlv ono among many—a drop in tho bucket of human­ ity. So don’t worry yourself about what people are thinking of*you, for they ore likely to think of you not at all, or iu the most careless way, unless you attract their attention by your awkward bashfulness. Evan then what they think is of little consequence. What you are is the esaontial matter.

The first of the Romanoff dynasty was Michael Fedorovitch, who was the grandfather of Peter tho Great, oho ot the most prominent figures in the world’s history. The family also numbered among its members Alexander L, who was the first to break the power of Napoleon, and followed the latter to Paris. Upon the monument on tho battle-field of Borodino is the following inscription: ■“Na­ poleon entered Moscow 1812. Alexander entered Paris 1814." Alexander III., tho present Emperor and Autocrat of all the Hussias, succeeded to the throne after tho murder of his father by Nihilist conspir­ ators, March 13, 1881. Alexander HI. was bom March 10, 1845, and since his eleva­ tion to tho throne, has seldom appeared in public, but has lived in the closest retire­ ment at Gatchina. He was crowned at Moscow, May 27, 1883, amid great pomp and splendor, and the coronation exercises were chronicled even to the slightest de­ tails by the newspapers at the time. He is noted for his sympathy with the old Rus­ sian party who are prejudiced against all foreigners. His younger brother, the Grund Duke Alexis, visited the United States in 1871, aud was received with the greatest eclat. Tho Czarina of Russia, Mario Feodorovna (formerly Mary Sophia Frederica Dagmar*, is the daughter of Christian IX. and Queen Louise of Denmark. She was mar­ ried to Alexander III. in the year 1866. Her father, Christian IX., in Reeking this alliance for his daughter Marie Fcodorovnn, knew that he was securing her the position of reigning over the largest em­ pire in the whole world, European Russia Rlono comprising a vast area, without tak­ ing in Asiatic Russia, which itself com­ prises several immense domains and prov­ inces. including Biteria. Three children have been the result of this marriage be­ tween Alexander and the Empress, all of them being sons. The Grand Duke Nicho­ las Alexandrovitch, who was born on May IB, 1868, is heir apparent to tbe crown and throne. He is in very delicate health, and fears are entertained as to his ever living to become the successor to the throne. The Minister to (folonibi*. The appointment of Dabney H.

A short time before the battle of Nash­ ville the Confederate and our skirmishers in front of Colonel Straight's brigade, near the Hillsboro pike, agreed on a trace, and neither was to fire without giving the other notice. Tbe weather was cold, and a va­ cant house near the line was confiscated by both parties for fuel, blue and gray engaging in a friendly contest tearing down the house. The truce did not last long, however. In a few days afterward a Con­ federate came over to trade tobacco for coffee, and on completing his trade he was requested to return to his own command, which he refused to do. saying he really did not belong over there. Further ques­ tioning elicited the fact that when Grant Mas at Vicksburg Le Hbc Confederate* en­ listed in an Dlinois regiment, was given leave of absence to go home a short time, and while at home was conscripted, being now in the Eighth Misri -aippi Regiment; and thi* being his first chance to gat away he intended making the beat use of tho opportunity. Our toys told him he coaid go to the rear if be wished, and he did ao. A Confederate officer soon came over aud asked why taut man was not seal back. Our men told him that they advised him to go back, but he preferred going into our line*. Ths officer wd 1 thi* d-d truce must lie ended, and ordered his man to fire; but they, true to their promise, called out, •u, down kanss; got orders to shoot; and then One Hundred and Eighteenth Ohio. to which Mr. Maury is accredited is a re­ public in the northwestern part of South America, and consists of nine States.

A CTXICAD old bachelor, who firmly be­ lieves that all women have something to ta^ on all subjects, recently asked a femala fnend, “Well, mntiam. wbat do you hold on tbe question of female auffroge?"

Yonao man abonld always toll tho truth. Old age afford* ample opportunity for desperation of a prafeerionAl erook who had been “settled" feat seven or eigfiY* year* forvobbery. Clark had been in prison about five months when he concocted his plan. From aome local convicts ho got the name of n minister of the gospel in the county who somewhat resembled him in general appearance, He also ascer­ tained that the man wan very timid and kind-hearted. Pretty soon Clark waa seized with an “indisposition," and. while not siok enough to bo stmt to the hospital, ho was excused from work in the shop and permitted to remain in hia ctdl. The prison chanlain found him an eager listener to his exhorta­ tions, and matters were noon ao shaped that ho was led to believe that Clark had something on his mind. When pressed ta admit that such was the case, the prisoner hesitated just long enough to put tho chaplain’a’curiosity on edgo. Yes, be had something on his mind. Jt was something tho Rev. Tobias Green ought to know. If he would call at the prison some day he should hear a confession which would clear up a great mystery and set certain things right. For three or four days Clark beat about the bush, playing the chaplain for all he was worth, and tho result was that tho Her. Tobias Green visited the prison with his mind made up to listen to some strange and wonderful confes­ sion. It was not Clark’s day for con­ fessing. He realized that he was'a bad —b-a-d man, and was.quite willing to talk about his soul and his future; but ho would tell his story some other day —the day after to-morrow. An ap­ pointment was mode for that dav with tho Rev. Tobias Green, and he deport­ ed, feeling that he had greatly softened the heart of a desperate man" Clark's “indisposition" increased somewhat, just enough to keep him in his cell and to prevent him from being too closely watched. The chaplain came in anil prayed with him, the doctor sent him a lew doses of quinine, aud whenever any one looked into his cell the man was lying on his bed. At 4 o’clock on the afternoon of the day designated tho Rev. Tobias Green put in an appearance. It was mid­ winter, and the day was so cold that the preacher was well bundled up. having on a heayy overcoat and a fur cap and muffler. The day was so dark that some of the halls were lighted. One of the hallmastcra conducted the preacher to Clark’s cell and left him, and the good man took the convict by tbe hand and anxiously inquired after the state of his health. No more than two minutes had elapsed before tho preacher was lying on bis back on the bed, with a gag in his mouth, and his thoughts terribly mixed up from a rap on the head. When he had got mat­ ters straightened out he was stripped to his shirt and drawers, and his hands and feet were securely tied. Clark had prepared himself for the job, and it was done in a prompt and thorough manner. Inside of ten minutes he was dressed in the preacher's clothing, while the latter was covered up with the blankets. Then the convict sat down with his ba< k to tho door and kept up a mumbling conversation for half an hour. During this time, os ho himself related, he poured into trie preacher's ears all the stories he had ever heard to tho detriment of the “doth." Ho finally ended by singing a hymn, and when lie passed outside the cell door be turned and said, in a voice meant to be heard by the hall watclhnan: “Good night, my son. I truly hope that th a visit has been the means of defng you good. I will come again to­ morrow, if possible." Witli that he st irted for the hall, nnd the watchman passed him to tbe wicket. This was unlocked without question, as also were all other ob­ structions to liberty, and ho reached the street without the slightest hin­ drance. He had relatives in the suburbs of th-e city, although the fact was not known to the prison officials, and he walked straight to the house and was taken in. The Rev. Tobias Green re­ mained passive until the hour camo for th£men to be locked up, whan he was d.scovered. A n alarm was at once sent out, but Clark was safe. He remained secreted in the house for about a mouth, and was then shipped away, and his recapture was never effected. In relat­ ing the story he said that tbe five or six minutea'necessary for him to pass out of the prison aged him more than any two years of his life. Evert individual must bo regarded as a very complex mingling of widely different bloods. To go no farther back than tho grandparents, he must be composed of at least fourteen different natures. It is not to be wondered at that such a multiplicity of combinations should lead to great variations. The wonder seems rather that members of a family should resemble ono another as much os they undoubtedly do. Some­ times in fuee, sometimes in form, fre­ quently in the gait, gesture, and tone of voice, family peculiarities make themselves apparent. To many of these traits Mr. Fianeis Gaiton has devoted his attention. Hia latest interest has been shown in the color of tho eye. The tints of the eye, for the purposes of his inquiry, were divided into “light," “hazel nnd dark ,w*ay," and “dark." “The heritage of peculiarity" in rolaiJod to eye-color for any child was found to amount to one^fourth from each parent and one-sixteenth from each grandparent. their fall BOUND To give MtisfscUoD, as better stove* for the money can not be bought In Harry or EaU» counties.

As to the why, it was a grim conceit of his, prob­ ably, carried exit by sotne friend. This was the only query ruggesting itself that 1 could answer satisfactorily to mywlf. •Could ‘‘lleddy” have been my brother Ned? This query because tbo key to that mys­ terious writing of yean before from my bro;her had beam given roo by my late]*rd. leading aft to surmise that be, nt some time -ar tdber. had been cahoote with No 1, hav­ ing his-own reason « for not acknowledging the wants; and then there wu mystery in tris written direction—Took for Reddy's Tomb"—and this direction now Reamed to imply that, in finding ‘Reddy's Tomb," I ebould find that of my brother. But that any brother's »oul ever disported in this diMBdcated body I could not believe: that it never did I could not positively say. Tak­ ing the benefit of a heavy doubt. I de-elined to accept this dried relic ns that of «ny brotber, and having satisfied my curi•osity in regard to the aijat rmy,’ physically. I bethought me of supper for my horse and •nyself—niy horse to be -served first, if I ■could provide fur him in tho storm. I found grais under the lee of tbo cabin, where but little snow had settled, and wood enough near by for a fire for my cooking; -and while my four-foo ed friend' munched his fodder, 1 partook of eik steak, with -coffee, the snow furnishing the water for tbe latter, and nerving my horse iu lieu of water. ' In tho presence of the defunct ami -dessicated "Reddy" I napped and smoked, with no more feeling of awe or borrow than I should hove expo ienced bad tbe supine form on tbe pine log been an effigy in papier-maebe, or old parchment, which the -cutic'o somewhat resembled, drawn and discolored ns it was; and tho fact that I sat -at the feet of the defunct on tho pino log •bier while I supped and, later, smoked, at­ tests the truth of this statement. There was naught to awe ono in that leathar-like ■effigy, which it was hard to believe over walked about on its feet and did things ■man fashion; and only a delicately organ­ ized tenderfoot would have felt any way ■uneasy or squeamish. Even my horse ■evinced no untsuiincsn, while bo would .have sniffed and snorted and pawed in the presence of n conventional cadaver. Aud I slept in my blankets th**: night in “Red•dy’s Tomb”—I had one ot th* shatters open for air. despite tho storm—nnd not so far away from tbe jiermanrnt occupant thereof tint that, had ho rolled over, he would have fallen upon me; slept right uu-dcr the lee of the huge log bier, and drcimed not of dead men. or spooks, ax -other horrors, as generally considered. So peaceful and sound was my sleep that I overslept myself fully two hours—]x>rhaps being boused had something to do with it— awaking to sunlight streaming in through the.opeu shutter. Looking out therefrom. I saw that but little snow had fallen—not more than six inches on the level—with gyassy spdta here nnd there exposed. 1 concluded that the storm had switched off from the range, or that it was a budding blast, a blizzoxd bantling, blooming at its birth, but bursting with bombastore reach­ ing maturity. It was a reminder, how■ever. that old Rpreas bad many abler-bodied tliz.urds in reserve, aud of such was tho October avaut courier. CHAPTER in. While I was looking out upon this semi­ winter scene, I was a trille surprised io see three horseman ride out of tbe timber on tbe thither side of tbs little pork, almost at the very spot where I had struck tbe open, and come at a gallop toward the cabin. A few seconds and they drew rein at tbo win­ dow out of which I was looking. One was a grizzled man of fifty, tho other two •younger by some tea or twelve years each. They were armed with Winchester rifles -and Colt's revolvers, nnd looked as though they might be rustlers and range-shouts, ■only that thay wore too serious and stern for such, aud glared at me -intoaily. "Weil." spoke out the grizzled oue of half -a century, s moment attar pulling up. "wot like legal pnmy facy aackerlige, of black •don't look Lika whitu" .With tho last word bo slid of! hia horse, his pals sliding off theirs and folowing him into the hat, tho door of which »&« not fastened. Grizzle, as I had already named the spokesman of tbe.party, stopped short when his eyas fell on the bier aud its skindried or kiln-dried occupant, and bis face grew lancer and sterner, his pals regulating their faces aooordingly. "I tow, parda,"Saul Grizzle, in a moment, in a voice t”o octaves lower thin tn the opera, and with "vow” in heu of “swar’," thta ar' sackarliffe blacker ’n th’ aee o' spades, er made * tavern 'n stable of this yer place. ■eriigwi gakxx"—(breaking ia on himself wad turning to andaddress.ngme)—"didn't Cknow as this war Heddy's Tomb?"

Tins-thought, nnd thia thought only, moved me to leave the spot where I stood nud walk out of the cabin. Looking up over the door, tho two men who had preceded me pointing up, I saw a red wood tablet, on which had been cut this legend: REDDFS TOMB. BESPBCT IT, ALL MEN. Requ^ Cal fit Peace! I should have laughed outright at tho Latin —well for me that 1 did not, probably—had I not observed, on the lower left-hand corner of the slab other knifework in smaller letters. I had scarce read the first line of thia cutting, an unfinished ono, whan Grizzle broke in upon me with: "Thar's no needip' tex read them words, ez they don’t concern vo no unusaud article in the Hills, even under ex­ tenuating cucurm>tauoes.

It was Doctor Emerson who uttered the above exclamation. Ho- hml come up providentially iu time to drag her from the wheels of the vehicle, nnd ho now assisted ‘ her into the cab, mid directed tbe driver to drive toward her home. Tho Doctor wns struck with admiration of her beauty. Ho delicately extracted from her the circumstances under which sho and her mother were living. "Mother and I," she said, with a halfsad smile, “aro quite alone in the world, and quite dependent on each other. »Ve orc poor, bat w.c have known none of tho real hardships of poverty yet; for when poor papa died, a year ago, lhero was left to us, after tho settlement of his affairs, sufficient money to support us for quite a while—in fart, until a few weeks ago. When tho money was nearly gone, wo be­ gan to look for some means of self-sup­ port. I suppoao wo ought to have thought about that sooner; but my mother was ill for a"loug time, and the griof of our be­ reavement, together with the sense of be­ wilderment that our great reverse of fort­ une caused, made us really unable to real­ ize our position or protic^ for the future. Now, however, we have commenced to look the inevitable bravely in the face, and adapt our .lives to our altered fortunes. Poor dear mamma has obtained some nee­ dlework—fine embroidery—and J—oh, my hopes are great! I will show you what I brild them on." And sho opened the roll of water-color drawings. “1 always took the prize at school for thia sort of work," she said, with brightening eyo and heightened color, "and afterward friends used to praise nnd admire tlrcm so muck. Many women have made excellent livings as artiste. Why should not I? Ara you a judge of art. Dr. Emerson? Can you tell mo how much of real merit those paint­ ings pOSBeBS?"

Her lot was such a hnrd one and such a lonely one, and sho had rested so great a hopc^qx'n this poor, frail rec<$ Evidently i it had shielded her thus far from that sick­ ening self-distrust aud doubt that makes work seem so hard and hopeless. “They are extremely pretty pictures." ho said, “nnd I wish you the fullest success in disposing of them." He took them to a shop next day (all but one, which he hung up in bis own room), and had a private conversation with thd proprietor, whioh resulted in the pictures being left. That evening Evelyn’s eyes grew bright over tho two sovereigns ho handed to her. “A gentleman bought one," he said “Thai one of the roses. I hope the others will find admirers und purchasers toon, since your heart is set upon iL But, Eve­ lyn, there is no need for yon to toil.

Diasette, aged 38 years, died at hi* home in Nashville, Saturday, Nov. 18, of pneumonia, after an Hines* of but six dayaJ He moved with bit family from StJohn, entire strangers, to Nashville, about six week* ago. and began his la­ bor in the church. Very soon it was impressed upon the wind* of bis con­ gregation that he was a man who wa* deeply in earnest about bis work. With singleness of heart and an earnest pur­ pose to give faithful service to the mas­ ter whom he so loved and honored, he bent every energy to the work he had undertaken. It was not generally known that he was dangerously ill, and his sudden dea*h came as a shock, not only to his congregation here and at Maple Grove, but to the entire community. Every heart was touched with sym­ pathy, net only for the loss to the church of a devoted leader, but still more deeply touched for the stricken wife and little children four in number. The closing hour* of his life were very pathetic. Nothing could quiet his delirious raving until his wife and little daughters, with quivering hearts and fast falling tears, stood by his bed­ side and sang to him hil favorite song "The Lily of the Valley.” He became quiet at once and tried to join his voice with theini in a. lost sweet song of praise. In answer to telegrams there arrived on Monday’s trains, his brothers, T. K. and Joseph Disaetteof Cleveland, Ohio, Edward Dlssette and wife of Indiannajmlis, and his eldest sister, Mrs. W. Phelps of Brantford, Canada. Two sisters of Mrs. Dissette were with her during bis sickness, Mrs. Yoke of Ohio, and Mrs. Duncan, of N. Y. The funeral was held in the M. E. church on Tuesday, conducted by Rev. J. H. Hamilton of Lansing. The pallbearera were Revs. Bang* and Brody of Eaton Rapids, Rev. Knott of Hast­ ings, Rev. Coggs«Yll of Niles, Rev. Pad­ dock of Vermontville, and Rev. J. H. Harder of Nashville. The service* were very simple and beautiful. Each of the ministers gave a brief history of his acquaintance with Rev.

It is esti­ mated that $118,000,000 will be collected daring the current fiscal year. The num­ ber of Illicit stills seized was 154, and 1,214 persons arrested therein. Tbo seizures were principally in Georgia, North Caro­ lina. Tennessee, Kentucky, and Virginia. The estimated expenses for the next fiscal year are $4,236,440, of which $1,900.­ 000 is for salaries and expenses of revenue agents, surveyors, gangers, store-keepers, etc., and $266,440 for salaries of officers and employes of the CoimniMioner's office, which includes an appropriation for an ad­ ditional chief of division and increase of force rendered neceasary by the oleomar­ garine law.

Four week* xgo the girl, who was but fifteen years old, was* playing with a largo Newfoundland dog­ belonging <o Mr. Daniela, at whom bouse she made her home. The animal was un­ usually good-natured, nnd the children in the neighborhood nuulo a playfellow of him. On the nioronsg of Oct. 18 a girl who lived near by came to the houao and the dog acted rather ugly. This was some­ what unusual, as the visitor had been in. tho habit of playing with him. No serious thought was paid to his demeanor, however, tho supposition being that he was simply .in ill-humor. Miss Daisy called to the' dog, but instead of obeying her he attacked the neighbor's girl more ferociously than, before, and succeeded in throwing her down nnd tearing her clothing before bo could bu conquered. The unfortunate lrick girl took hold of tho canine and led him to the barn. When, she was about to close the door behindber. he made a dash for her throat. Before ruisiiftance could reach her, his fangs had. penetrated the back of her neck, her arms, her ear, and the side of her face. Bhefainted away, and when picked up was ap­ parently lifeless.

SsNSATtoNS of vision require a defi­ nite time of exposure of the retina, which time Mr. J. M.

Rofk belting for tho transmission of power is being introduced in some Eastern mills and factories. A twoinch rope running 100 feet a minute gives 1-horse power, according to the experience of an English mechanic un­ der whose supervision the experiment hi being tried. He says: “This calcu­ lation ta to bo applied to ropes in all po­ sitions except vertical, if pulleys uro not less than five feet or less in diame­ ter; in that case 150 feet per minute per horse power. If larger pulley then more herse power. Se\eral drive 70 to 80 horse power on each rope, but those have been wound w.th a small, stent cord. To speed 3,500 feet per minute requires 8 to 10 feet pulleys, nnd such I have seen in operation two years and not. tightened. We at home use a grooved wheel with round liottoms and flaring sides, so that tho rope will just till.into tho bottom of tho grooves.” Among the other valuably properties of aluminum the reduction of the fusing temperature of its alloys is notable. A very small proportion, about 5-100 of 1 per cent, of aluminum, in tho form of 7 or 8 per cent, aluminum alloy of cast iron, ta added to tho charge (about sixty pounds) of wrought iron in the crucible the moment this has been melted. The fusing point is at once lowered some 500 degrees, and tho charge, now an alloy of iron and alum­ inum, becomes extremely fluid and can be cast in tho finest molds, while the great ditfcrence between- its tenxporature and its fusing point gives all the time necessary for manipulating it without danger of it solidifying. The extreme fluidity of the charge allows the ready escape of thu gases, which otherwise would make a porous casting, and the result ta a remarkably tine, solid, and tough casting of what ap­ pears to possess the properties of wrought iron.

It you The groat activity in business circles daring the past sixty days has siimutated manufacturing and building enterprise in nearly every Stale in the Union. The greatest activity ta in tbo New England and Middle States. Large mills are to be built at Fall River, ono with 26,000 spindles. Ono will cost $500,0w0, and run 40,000 spindles. Textile mills are to bs erected at Lunenbnrg, Mass., at Danby, VL, at Otaeyville, R. L. at West Paterson, N. J., and at several places in the South. New 1 machinery is going into over half of the manufacturing cHtablishments of these States. .In fact, such active preparations for on increaimg output were never before known. In conwguonce there is an in­ creasing demand for ixnuroved engines, boilers, and machinery, besides electric­ light appliances of every make in the mar­ ket. Electricity is being generally adopted in factories and large shops. A diacusaion .has been started over the relative merits of water-power and steam­ power. -The water-power advocates‘figure out that steam-power, even in quantities— 500 to 600 horse-power—cannot be created or maintained at a cost of less than $50 per home-power per annum, while wafer­ power will not ordinarily cost half that much. It is agreed that there are hun­ dreds of places in tho United States where valuable water-power can be conveniently utilized at little cost and confer important economic advantages on those who .seek this lint little used source of power. The makers of wood-working machinery have been encouraged during the past month by a large influx of orders for the latest improved machines for. ordinary mill work because of the large amount of work they turn out at less cost than older ma­ chines. Several accidents have recently happen­ ed from tho falling of elevators without safety appliances. The competition is very close between builders.

The Fall River spinners, when they de- 't mandod higher wages the other day, were told that the mill had been operated for a year or more past at no profit.

All that summer the world bad seemed a sunny place, made for love and romance. ’One. day after another had been ushered in Hko a sweet guest, sure of approval; and fixe nights closing over them had made them beautiful memories. • "Who could be anything but happy?” X had asked myself the question again and Main; now I laughed bitterly at the thought of any lasting happiness coming io me. „ I had spent three months nt this old farmtrousc among the mountains, gaining Strength with every day, until, when 1 looked nt my own face in tbo glass, it Mamed like a new face. Years ago I had been called “lovely Nora," but since I had been poor, and worked for toy living, tho rotes hod faded in my ch’eek*, the light had died in my once laugh­ ing eyes, and loveliness had chased away the smiles. • But this summer I had found new friends, anil all the world had blossomed againI remember so well that day on the hill­ ride, when, bred iith a long ramble, I had thrown myself down on a grassy lodge, and sat looking off over the quiet volley, thinking that I wav glad to have health and strength again, even to spend M in downright hard work. Suddenly there came from out the shadow of tbo great oaks the figure of a mon. Brown and trnwsl-staiued, yet yith a frank, honest expression that won him a friend at ©nee. > “It is five years, and I am hero!” ho said, Kvoly, coming up to me aud holding out h Iris hands. "Five years?" I arid, looking np with eurioBity. *T don’t think I could forget a triend in that time. I am quite sure wo are --.rangers." His face crim«oned anti a sterner look came over ft. “Did I not promise you I would come with or without a fortune? Wo shall have to wait for the fortune, but wo surely are the beet friends, Clara?’’ "You have made a mistake.” I stam­ mered, “l am not Clara, but Nora." He looked amazed. I kn.-w 1 was look­ ing like a little goose! -lf it was Clara Heed yon expected to ace, others hare made tbe aamo mistake; they aay I look-aa she did five yean ago; she is really my cousin, you know, only ” “Only what?" ’ . It was humiliating, but it must lie said. "Only our uncle left all tho money to Clara, when be died, and —toe have' not been tho beat friends." And once more I turned away. But gently ho laid a detaining hand on my arm. “This then is ‘lovely Nora?" Pardon me, but I hare often beard your uncle call you that. Bui I thought you were the heiress." “I thought no. too,” I faltered; “but Clara came—and saw and conquered." And I tried to smile. “And you were left out in the cold? “It did seem pretty cold when those I had thought ray friends dropped off ouo by one, but I hnro found better ones since, and I am quite happy." Once more I turned away. But he hastened along tbe little path that was hardly wide enough for two, and. tak­ ing my basket, said: “If you are Clara’s cousin wo must be friends at least Your uncle once asked «na to his house to meet you, so you will not refuse my friendship now?" " “Your friendship? Oh, no! I have not •0 many friends that I can refuse one." So he carried my basket and begun to tell mo the storv ot hia travels ns wo went bock to the old farm-house. I loft him at the door and ran up te my Toom to drew for tea. That evening I heard marvelous atones •of adventure, and felt almost as if I myself had been half-way round the world. The next morning Clara came, and Robert H*rroy was quite the devoted lover she expected. Still there were times when wo were all together in the little world of cool green shadows on the mountain-hide, and I could listen te the pleasant storiv* ha told of faroff lands and people, forgetting time and place, until Clara would say: “I never could go into raptures over things, so don’t expect it. Robert! I really don’t see how Nora manages to get up t o much enthusiasm." And then I would blush guiltily and go •way, because I knew in my own heart that it waa hia voice and kind glance that SDade the stories so charming. Ono day when Clara had been tearing me, and had driven me almost to team, she followed me to my room, and threw herself down in tho easiest chair “Bo you really think he is nice, Nora? “Mr dear child, if you coll that an insult to offer yon something you are dying to have, you must hare a strange imagina­ tion.” “It is an insult!"

His conversation was a mixed up lot of nouseuko rompoaod of railroad switches, hardware stores, cord-playing term*, and border slang, as “you bet, “now you are a wolf," and “now you are bowling," etc. Often he was very high-toned and used tbe most absurd and laughable Boston English.

His body was carefully buried, but tee inquiries made concerning him proved use­ less. No one came to bewail John Bryant's death or to claim his effects, the soiled clothing he wore when brought to the hospital.

There was the “darling Mary." the young, sweet wife, her delicate lipa part­ ed with a loving smile, above which softly gazed her hazel eyes. Sitting on her lap, with one dimpled hand clasping a long brown curl which had strayed over her shoulder, was the baby, a wee, fair thing. There, too, clinging to either side, were the “precious children," the little girl and boy. Ah! 'twns these who must make the “long, long, weary journey" of life ere they all meet again.

The writer <m at Green Bay, Wis., one day during the second year of the war, when an order was received for certain specified sticks ot square timber. Tho logs to make them were not in the pond. Wuen the case was laid before him he at onoe thought of a clamp of pines standing near the Fox River, a few miles above, and visited the old French half-breed who owned them, and at oace bargained for and purchased them. It was summer, and warm work, but in a few days those trees were in the river at me mill, and in a few hours more were sawn into square timber for bridges. These pieces were at once loaded upon Uir cars and expressed from Fort Howard to some point in Tennessee, for rebuilding d--ntroved railroad bridges. I was afterword informed that within ten days from the cutting of those trees in Northern Wisconsin they were standing in Tennessee bridges and doing duty in the work of forwarding men and supplies to the front An old French half-breed who stood by when this fact was being staled remarked: rat in lour year."

We have bail bentiful weather all through tbe year, abundant crops, aud our village has improved as it never improved l efore .Oar Thanksgiving exercises did not come off as advertised last week, owing to the inability of Rev. Koehler to leave his work in Wroodland to deliver the discourse. In lieu thereof a very interesting impromptu praise service, conducted by Prof. Roberts, assisted by tbe high school pupils, wm held, being well attended. Rev.

Tho oommaud, had halted for the night, and the troops were about to go into camp, but tho oolumn was still closing up, and the larger part of it was yet ou tho road. I remember that General Echols and I wpre dismounted and standing upon the turnpike, surrounded by tho Soldiers. We were .talking about some ordinary matter to which I had called - his attention. Just then Lieutenant Clay galloped op and asked where he could find the General. General Echols indicated his opened nnd read it. I instantly perceived that it contained momentous and disastrona news. Hu face became intensely flushed, and then grew deadly pale. He quietly requested me to follow him out of tho throng. I did so, and when wo were a few paces away ho read mo . the dispatch, which was from General Lo---- —J “ th«sc words: “General Lee vn tiered, this morning, at or near Appc ox Court House. I.am hying, with tn_ i division and tho remnants of Fitz Le«.j Rosser’s divisions, to arrange to nA junction with you." prepared to he _ ,jr <of ‘disaster, I . Although — ,— ----------bad had not expected anythin;; a. so dreadful as this, and the announcement almost stun­ ned me. I can never forget tho feeling of utter dismay and despair with which I heard it, or the impression it- produced upon the troops when the information reached them. General Echote,y-,fl not intended to im­ mediately divulgvTT- After a brief confer­ ence we agreed i^Ithe news should be con­ cealed, if posri^?, from the men until the next day, andJcommunicatcd that night only to the 'rigade and regimental commandeni. T'e hoped that Home plan might ’ ‘ vote! which wbuld enable us to hold the xoflfo together until we could learn । fobey would bo pursued by Mr. ff and whether it would. l»e our duly deavor to join General Johnston. But aqpal such a fact when even one man was aware of it was impossible. Before we bad concluded our brief conversation, wo knew from the hum and in the anxious, dark-browed crowds near us, lhe restless oscillation of the long colgmn as tbe whis­ per flew along, the excitement which soon grew almost to tumult, that the terrible tiding had gotten abroad. Thai night no mon slept. Strangely as the declaration may now sound, there was not one of the six or seven thousand then gathered nt Cbcuttiansburg who had entertained lhe slightest thought that such an event could happen, and doubtless that feeling pervad­ ed tbe ranks of tbe Confederacy. We knew that Richmond bad fallen. We knew that tha heroic army which had so long defended Richmond was in retreat. We knew that it would be nomadic; that ite operations could no longer be conducted upon the-methods which support regular warfare, and that everything necessary to maintain its efficiency was lost. We could hazard no conjecture as to what would be done; yet, that tbe Army of Northern Vir­ ginia, with Lee at its head, would ever sur­ render bad never entered our minds. zTherefore, tbe indescribable oonatenration and amazement which spread like a conflagra­ tion through the ranks when tho thing was told can scarcely be imagined by one who has not had a similar experience. For four years the jieople of the Southern State!) had lived under u separate govern­ ment of their own, and had looked upon themselves os constituting a distinct nation­ ality. The very fact that those four yekrs had been years of struggle, danger, and sacri­ fice only tho more intensified their aspira­ tions for political separation and independ­ ent governmental existence. What at first may have been, with the mass of the population mere prejudice, as some have claimed, or at beat but an ideal love of the freedom which, in its widest sense, mean* the right of lhe people of every sovereign community to control with­ out interference or restriction their own affairs, had grown into an anient wish for the maintenance of the Confederacy and a devotion to their Southern land which was limitless. Previous attachment to their native soil, all tho ideas and traditions they had been reared to believe and cherish, all that contributes to make up what is wise be wrong in patriotism, was connected iu their minds with tbe contest in which they . were engaged and the effort they were mak­ ing. They were almost ready to believe that all future hope and life itself depended upon suocem. To ell who read this—save those who shared tbe itentimenti—>t may seem incredi­ ble that tha Southern jieople and soldiery can have really felt the blow so keenly. I will ask such skeptics to imagine the im­ pression that would be ]iroduced upon them l*y tho conviction that this country had been suddenly subjugated by some foreign power, and was about to be over­ run and permanently occupied by its armies and governed by its agents. ’ The South expected in defeat to be reduced tn rust such a condition. General Leo and his army had been so identified in our minds with tho Confederate cause that to lose them was like taking tbe heart from the body. During all that night officers and men were congregated in group* und crowds discussing the news, aud it was curious to observe how the training and discipline of veteran soldiers were manifested even amid all this deep feeling and wild excitement. There was not one act of violence, not a harsh or insulting word spoken; the office re were treated with the same respect they Lad Jreviouidy received, and although many of fbe infantry who lived in that part of Vir­ ginia went off that night without leave nnd returned to their homes, none who re­ mained were insubordinate, or failed to ob.-y orders with alacrity. Great tires larger, and more numerous than ordinary camp-fires, were lighted and with the horrible wounds and death they inflicted with shot and shall. All attempts hud faded, and reunited aiaastroualy to the artillerymen. It ap­ pears that General Grant insisted that the bouse be Irtirnt, and happening, on one of hrs inspecting tours, to meet General Burn­ side, he ordered it to be done at once. Without waiting for. General Burnside's movements he quickly came to the Third Battery and ordered one piece to be'taken Out to where n cood rnngt'—could be had. Tho gunners, always reaiflft obev when enemy, prepared with alacrity to pull out “by hand. "• In the Third Batten- was a , “hurum-ncaruin” 19 or 20-vear-old corporal named Estes, jealous of his authority as he was brave and true. It happened to bo his cannon that General Grant was ordering out. Estes at that, moment came out of the magazine. Seeing a sandy-whiskered, slouch-hat man at His gun. he took it all in at a glance, and was mad. Rushing up to the cannon, he yelled. “Halt I hat gun! Who tho h—1 are you, Sandy. that dares to touch my gun?" ’ “Never mind, Corporal, it’s-all right. Ont with tho gun.. boys!" replied Grant, smiling, and pulling his sandy beard. “It aint all right----- " began Estes, but General Burnside appearing and Lieuten­ ant Phillipea ooming up, understanding the trouble, recognizing Grant, gave Estes a kick on the shins, with a “Shut up!" saluted tho General, and received the order*. Tho gun was runout into tho field to a good position, and begun business. Range being found, Corporals E*tes and Savage । filled a shell full of tow. part tire and turpontine, sent it with accurate alm scream­ ing into the roof of the bouse, which soon was in flaniex, and burnt to the ground.

After this rafter duty) Estes as hailed -by all, at all times nnd places, “Who the h—1 are you/ Sandy?” He replied with nil the..impatience of a superior being, “Well, Grant knows he can’t fool with me on this line," and Savage et al. gave him a laugh. '________ W. A. Phu*. Captures and Recaptures. Wo were close on to Murfreesboro, in sight of the enemy's intrenchmente, a part of General Thomas' division, and on the Franklin road. Things began to look se­ rious, and the roar of battle had com­ menced. A shower of bullets suddenly whizzed about our ears, and tho old,'indescribable feeling came over me. I dodged, thinking the next shot must certainly ertrry off my arm or leg; then came the desperate con­ clusion that I must stand up to it anyhow, mingled with shame at feeling like a cow­ ard. Then came a dashing, a clashing, anoth­ er volley, a demand to surrender, and—we were captured. A party had come up in our rear, nnd we were pnsonora. With blank, astonished faces we saw tho point, and, like Crockett's coon, did not wait for the shot. Our captors rummaged our wagons, jeered us, nnd claimed a complete victory over all our forces. Time passed slowly. Then another sudden dischargn of mus­ ketry—the teams were recaptured by our men, aud we were free. This was bnt one of several similar ex­ periences of that day, putting us into a fe­ verish state of excitement os to what the final result would bo. We were ordered to retire partially toward the rear, and, worn out by tlje fight and my feelings of anxioty, I seated myself against a tree. I had been there but a little while when I saw-a squad of Confederate cavalry dash­ ing across the field. They fired as they came, and in a few minutes were on us. Resistance was useless, as they outnum­ bered us two to one. An officer with bright red hnir commanded them. Riding up to a Quartermaster with us, who shone in a new suit of clothes, ho held a pistol to his head and shouted: “Your bat, air!" Tbe cap was resigned. “Your coat!" Slowly it was drawn off. “Your watch!" “Ah. come now, that's loo much," remon­ strated the Quartermaster. " Another word and 1'11 blow your brains out," was the rejoinder; so tho watch fol­ lowed the coat. “ Your pantaloons !" Reluctantly, and amid shouts of laughter from our captors, tho inexpressibles came off. “Your tioota!” They were being meekly handed over, the Southerner already hold­ ing one in his grasp, his hand outstretched for the other, when a whizz of balls caused him to turn in his saddle—-our friends were there to tho rescue. The Quartermaster comprehend-d the state of thing* in an instant, and began to donee nround in his drawer*, vest nnd stock­ ings, brandishing his one boot and shriek­ ing frantically: “Shoot that red-headed scoundrel; shoot him, I say; shoot the thief!" When our friends reached us he seized n pistol from one. springing forward like a tiger-cat, and held it at tho Confederate's breast and jerked out with spasmodic con­ tortions: “My cap," “My coot," “My watch," ’ My pantaloons,” “My boot;'' making him deliver them one by one. and jumping frantically at ea- h piece as it wav delivered. The spectators were convulsed with laughter, when the Quartermaster retired to some more convenient place to dress.— Chicago Ledger. very similar to ours, aud the committee was not disposed,-therefore, if for no other rea­ son, “to keep, copy, or imitate it.

One night, just be­ ! fore taps, tho word came that tin: fort woa to be stormed tbe next morning at day­ break. Onr.Colonel addressed ns: “Boys, we are invited to lead tho charge. The post of honor is the post of danger." My brain reeled with anxiety. We aU realized it was a “forlorn hope." Our Chaplain joined the Colonel, and said: “Men, this is the most serious under­ taking you have been asked to consider. It is probable scarcely one ot your entire number can escape death. Not one of you is compelled to go. If any refuse, ho can never l>e branded a onward, as your records for bravery ore already made. Think it over and come back here at twelve o'clock and let us know your answer." At the bout appointed we aU returned. Do you ask “all?" Yes, sir, without ex­ ception wo all were there. There were some white faces, and 1 know my heart was in my boots, but we wore determined faces. “Now," said tho Chaplain, “go to your tetite. write your letters, settle all business, and if you have any sins ask God to for­ give them. I shall- go with you iti tho morning, and may the Lord have mercy on us.” Daylight came; wo resolutely formed in line. e made the assault. “Into the jaws of death?" you ask. No, into an empty fort. Scarcely an hour before the enemy had evacuated’it. We led the "forlorn hope” without the loss of a single man. But wo had hail our courage tned all the some, don't you think?—Chicago Ledger. A Close Reconnoiter. I was a member of an Alabama regiment, belonging to Lindell's Battery, under Lieu­ tenant General Folk, and, as the joke is on myself, your readers will pardon mo if I hide my identity by simply saying I was an officer. It was at lhe battle of Perryville, and titward evening of our hardest day's fight­ ing. A detachment of new men had just come up. and were preparing for action. I suddenl.v observed a body of men, Confederatiis, I thought, who wore firing desultory shots at onr new friends. I put spurs to my homo and dashed up to the colonel of the regiment firing, and iu loud tones asked: , "What do you mean, firing at your own friends?” He answered with surprise, “Friends! I am sure they are the enemy." \ “Enemy! I have only just left them my­ self. I am your superior, and I command you to cease firing, or 111 report you. | What is your name?" “I am’Colonel Grover, of tho [I think] Seventh Indiana. Who are you?* Imagine my astonishment to find I was among the Yankees. I saw there was no hope only to brazen it out. The shadows of approaching night assisted the decep­ tion. I assumed a bold demeanor, aud said: "PH show you who I am. Stop firing, sir, at once." Then, in even greater haste than I had approached, I cantered off, and in a roundabout way reached my men. I went lo the Colonel of the new men and said: I have reconnoitered those fellows pretty closely, and you can get up and go at them.” Tho slaughter of that Tndiana regiment was ono of the most complete of tbe war. CO NFEJJ EBATE. Alabama. A Joko on General Hurlbat. In the xummer of 1M62 I was stationed at Memphis, Tenn. General Btephen A. Hurlbut, who was in command, issued "ery strict orders against foraging. I wa* on guard at his headquarters one day, when two of the 'Eighth Missouri came by carrying an cld spinning-wheel and a clock.' The General called a ser­ geant of the guard to arrest them, which was done. The General, in passionate tones, asked tbe man with the wheel what he was going to do with aneb a thing? "I am going to wind up this rebellion,” was the reply. The General. with a broad grin now on his face, said to the other: “What are you going to do wilh that old clock?” “I am going to see how long it takes that fellow to wind qp the rebellion.” “Go lo your quartm, you rascals!” said tha General, choking with laughter, as ho rushed into bis tent.

Colonel Capers tells the following graphic story of the makeshifts and expedients re­ sorted to by the Confederate effort at government to get n place among tho notions of the earth, in a recent issue of the New York World: Tbe first to report for duty was Raphael Semmes, afterward commander of tho Alabama.

Mr. Webster purchased her freedom for $600, with the understunding that she was to work it oat. Ho paid her wages, however, with­ out any reference to this indebtedness, and. as she received many presents from tho family and visitors, she hnd, when Mr. Welister died, about $2,(XX) fn the savings bank. She was certain­ ly an admirable cook, as every one who enjoyed Mr. Webster's hospitality could testify. True, she knew but little about French dishes, entremets and relevwL but no one could send to the table toast meat, or fish, or game, cooked better than that from the kitch­ en over which Aunt Monica presided. Her bread was remarkably Excellent, and she was well versed in the art of making griddle cakes, wattles, biscuits, and other Maryland delicacies. In tho guest chamber at Marshfield, when I was there, was a set of mahog­ any furniture which had evidently been used by Mr. Webster at his house ia Boston, ponderous, aud massive, and respectable in appearance, as was its owner. But the comfortable bed afforded me no morning nap, ffor soon after sunrise there was a rap at the door, and a well-known sono.rona voice asked if I would not like to get up and go and see the cattle. 1, of course, hurried on my clothes, and going down into tho spacious hall was joined by Mr. Webster, who had his trousers tucked into a pair of thick, high boots, a broad-brimuied felt hat on his head, and in his hand a long iuala. ca staff. Going to the barns we found the fore­ man, Mr. Wright, who seemed to enjoy Mr. Webster's entire conudence. The cows were Devons and Ayi shires, the latter breed predominating, with a few Alderueya, then just coming into fashion,** and some Hungarian cattle. Mr. Webster rather apologized for not keeping Bhorthorns, but sard that the sod at .varshfield was hardly up to the Shorthorn standard.

If, in lhe use i of Atblopboroa, the bowels are kept freely open, its suectes is certain, and to aid thia, j Alhlophoroa Pills are recommended, j which, while providing the necessary ’ cathartic, will be found to be a valuable . aid to the action of the medicine. Alhlopharos is no experiment, it ha* been tested I and haa proved its wonderful efficacy.The Athlophoroe Pills were originally prepared a* a remedy for use in connection : with Athloplioron, for rheumatism and': neuralgia and kindred complaints. Used in connection with.that remedy, they arc i a certain cure for either of these very com- i mon and diatresaing diseases. They have [ also been found to be on invaluable remedy | for any and all diseases arisingfrom vitiated ■ blood or genera! debility. They are es­ pecially valuable for nervous debility, blood poisoning, dyspepsia, distrew after'eating, headache, consti|»ation, loss of appetite, and all stomach or liver troubles. For diseases of women they are invaluable. These pills are perfectly harmkiw and may be safely used by adults or children. TestimoniaL of those who have been aired will be sent free on application.

No apprehension of his immediate death was fell until the day preceding his de­ mise, when Mr. Adams showed slight symptoms of fever. A physician, who was called at once, said his wustetl strength would not be able to resist the attack, mild ns it was. Mr. Adams lingered some sii teen houra, when bis life loft him. i quietly as a breath of air extinguishes candle flame. The end, when it came, was simply the*flickering out of the last sjierk of vital fire, which had been fading away so gradually that the change from day to-day was not perceptible. Charles Francis Adams, grandson of John Adams, second President, aud son of John Quincy Adams, sixth President of tho United States, waa born nt Boston. Au­ gust 18, 1807. His father holding diplo­ matic positions iu Europe, he spent most of his first ten ;years abroad, returning to America in 1817, when ho entered I^arvard College, graduating in 1825. He was ad­ mitted to tho bar iu 1838, but never engag­ ed in practice, having previously married the daughter of Peter C. Brooks, a wealthy Boston merchant- Previous to 1848 ho had served as a member of the Massachu­ setts Legislature for five years. In 1848 he was nominated by tho nowly organized “free-soil" party for tho Vice Presidency of the United States. This party, com­ posed mainly of Democr-ita who were. opcing with moirt of tbe Northern members of the Whig party, formed tho Republican party, which came into power in 1S60. Meanwhile, in 1358, Mr. Adams was elect­ ed a member of Congress. In 1861 Mr. Adams was appointed by President Lincoln Minister to Great Brit­ ain, a post which he retained until 1868, when he was recalled at his own request. In 1871-2 he acted as arbitrator for the United States in the commission to settle the respective claims of Great Britain and the United States growing out of the civil war. He was one of the originators of the ^Liberal Republican" movement in 1872, but was defeated by Mr. Greeley in secur­ ing the Presidential nomination. He sub­ sequently joined the Democratic part}, by which he was nominated for Governor of Massachusetts in 1876. Mr. Adams has furnished many contri­ butions to the North American Keriew and to the Christian Examiner, and in 1870 delivered before the New York Historical Society an able disconree on “American Neutralitv." He has published “Tho Life and Works of John Adams,” ten volumes, and “The Life aud Works of John Quincy Adam*," thirteen volumes. John Quincy Adam*, the Democratic candidate for Governor of Massachusetts in 1871. and Charles Francis Adams, Jr., who has long been identified with railroad development, are sons of Mr. Adams.

TKKSOK X8 While we are decidedly in favor of cremation, we do not admit that the fear of being buried alive should be a reason to'cause nn to reject burial and to adopt cremation. There are two simple teats by which we can always convince ourselves whether a person is really'dead or not. One test is the same that has. been crowned with a prize by the French Government, which had for years offered a large re­ ward for the discovery of any method, always applicable, always reliable, and one that may.be practiced by the most ignorant The method of determining actual death, which was considered by tho French Government as being worthy of the reward, is tbe following: When the fingers of a person who is supposed to be dead are fully extended, but kept near together, and if placed in front of a candle light in a-dark room a peculiar bright red color, due to tho capillary circulation, will be visible where^the fingers touch each other, if there is any life left. This tost has thus far proved tho most re­ liable. The other is based upon the well-known fact that the muscles of a human being will never respond for a longer time to the strongest electrical current than for ono hour and a half after death; while as long os life lasts, may its evidences be ever so little, the contractility of the muscles, if not affected by some forms of paralysis— and in cases thus affected, when death seems to occur, it always is real—re­ mains.—Medical and Surgical Re­ porter. , GOODWIN.

A well-to-do farmer of Assyria made a trip to Battle Creek one day last week on a marketing trip, and started for home just as the twilight shadows were falling. A couple of hours later one of his neighbors heard a wagon driven past his place, and commented on the fust pace at which it must have been going to get out of hearing so quickly. Shortly afterward he thought he beard someone calling from the road, and went to the door and listened, but could hear nothing. Later-he fancied lie heard someone groaning, and light­ ing his lantern started out to see what was up. ■ He found that the Deckyoke of the wagon he thought had gone by, had broken, letting the tongue drop, which caught in the ground and raised the foiward end of the wagon so it stood in about the shape of a letter A. The w. t. d. farmer was immovably en­ tangled with one leg through the wheel and innumerable boxes, packages and barrels of salt piled promiscuously on his stalwart frame. Assistance was pro­ cured and he was rescued from his un­ comfortable position. When asked how the accident happened he said “it must be laid to his rheumatism, as he wasn’t tight, having only bad one drink while at the city.” He was righted up and sent on his way rejoicing.

He thought the decision of Judge Soott in granting tha writ was in itself an evidence that tbe con­ viction of himself and tho others was anotation of the law. “If you get out of this scrape do you think you will talk and write in the future as yon did in the jiast?" ho was asked. “I can’t say whether I would write tbe Fame things and preach tbe same doctrines.

During his first three years at college the scholarships Presidents McCosh and Eliot, of Prince­ ton and Harvard Colleges, have been brought quite prominently before the pub­ lic lately, on account of the unpleasantness growing out of Harvard's 23Uth anni­ versary celebration. New Jersey's famous educator conceived that a grave indignity was inflicted upon him on that occasion, and in a state of dudgeon turned his back secured by Mr. Everett, joined to an accompanying reduction in tuition, covered the tuition for that period, which was $100 yearly. In the fourth year Mr. Everett secured the highest scholarship in college, of $150, which is given on a basis of scholarship to but one member of the senior class. This covered the term bills of the fourth year. In addition, Mr. Everett held n monitorship of $20 yearly, which re­ quired his presence at chapel every morning. His expenses, aside from tui­ tion for the first three years and the term bills for tho fourth, amounted in round numbers to $200 yearly for .the first two years, $250 for the third, and. $350 for the foflrtli, making an aggre­ gate of $1,000 for tbe college course of four years.

A man may be constrained to carry a pis­ tol on aome emergency, but I believe Judge Hammond, was right when he charged the grand jury that a man who habitually carried a pistol was a cow­ an!

The sleeplessness often complained of by gouty persons is due to tho poi­ sonous effect of the morbid material upon the nervous system. Excessive smoking, too much alcohol, tea, and coffee, often resorted to by overworked persons, are frequent causes of sleeplessneiM. In all these cases the cause is removable, while the effect may be counteracted by appropriate treatment. Nothing is more mischievous, however, than to continue the habits, and to have recourse to drugs to oombat the effect*. A due amount of exorcise tends to induce normal sleep, and such exercise need not be of a violent character. A walk of two or three milea a day is sufficient, and is perhaps as much as a busy man cun find time for. A ride on horseback, the Palmerstonian cure for gout, is probably the best form of exer­ cise for those whose minds are con­ stantly at work.

Tbo old Abolitionists and tbe national banks favored Chief Jus­ tice Chase, who possessed brains, per­ sonal dignity, and ability to perform the duties of the Executive.

The most peaceable and dangerous man in all th?s i nited States lives in Murray County, Georgia. He is kindhearted, good-tempered, never had a quarrel in his life, wouldn’t hurt a fiy, and everybody is afraid of him. About a year ago. he was cutting wood, when the ax flew off the handle and killed s man wbo had come to pay him $50; he never got a cent of tbe money. The next week,, while ferrying a friend serosa a river, he ran the boat against u snag and his friend wm drowned. About a month later be felled a tree on a stranger who was lying asleep in the woods, killing him instantly. Not long after he shot at a wild turkey and killed a neighbor whom he didn’t see at alL Three weeks afterward he lighted a keronene lamp, when it sud­ denly exploded, burning to death a col|>orteur to wham the inoffensive Georgian had courteously extended tue hospitality of his home. His last pub­ lic act was to cross the st eet with a ladder on his shoulder, last Fourth of July, while the profession wm passing, and, when somebody shouted to him to “hurry on," he obligingly turned around and started back. The pro •cs­ sion was laid out ai d the day spoiled. —Burdette. ‘Yog might &s well come inside here, Johnny,” said the pilot of one of our large steamboats to a boy who stood shivering on the hurricane deck- ■ The Ind turned a pale, anxious face, and with a pitiful attempt at a smile, said: “ iliank you, sir, but I thought there was no admittance here.” “Oh, once, in a while we let a friend ■in,” «aid the pilot, kindly, and with a sweeping glance that took his com­ panion in from top to toa and seemed to penetrat-v to his inmost soul. “Where ’re yon bound?” he con­ tinued, with a hearty brusquenessfroji which no offense could be taken. “I don't know, exactly," the lad. an­ swered. “I’m going to Boston first, that is—r—" ' “Yes, that's about what I thought," tho pilot interrupted, “if you can man­ age to got .there. Let me tell you some­ thing, my boy. A man in iny position has ever opportunity in the. world to study character, and as quickly as my eyee lit upon your face I knew you were running away from hornff*.” ’ Tho only response to this was a hasty turning away of the head, and a quick, gasping sigh which sounded forlorn from one so young. “And I woaldj’t be afraid to wager this' steamboat that you have got a mother living, and, more than that, as kind and loving a mother as ever drew breath. You wonder how I know all this,” the man continued, his eyes fixed on the waste of water before him, and his steady hands guiding the great craft with perfect ease and precision; ’“but you carry your mother about in your face, my lad, and your eyes are a bad give-away," he added, with a smile: “Now I am going to toll you a story. You are about sixteen, I take it? Yes, I thought so. Well, I was a year older when I concluded.! knew more than my mother and all the rest of my rela­ tions, and skipped just as you have. You feel that you have been the victim of injustice, and all tho right in the universe is on your side. That was my case, but I was a fool, and so are you. There is no necessity of entaring’into particulars, but I was jealous of my older brothers and made myself believe that they were in collusion to keep me out of money tlmt honestly belonged to me. I wanted some of the property that was eventually coming to me to travel with. I was wild to see the world, and the ridicule of my brothers •nd my mother's apparent’ sympathy with them made ine deaperate. Well, one rumpus followed another, my mother all the titqe trying to show me how unjust and ridiculous my demands were, until one day I threw all affection and decency to tbe winds and ran away. "Now, the point that I particularly want to make in this yarn, my lad, and which I would give a good many dollars to impress upon others, is, that any fellow with a grain of honest love for his mother in his heart is pretty sure to have something to regret os long as he lives if he hurts that mother by doing what you and I have. In a moment of anger we say to ourselves, 'No one cares for us, and we care for nobodyand then some awful trouble comes along, and we find too late that we have only deceived ourselves. Now, I trampl'd up and down the earth for six mouths without sending a line home, or hearing a word froai home, and at last there came a day when sick­ ness trom ^nosnre, and labor beyond my years and my strength, drove *ne back. But not to stay or make myaelf known to any one, but to take—or, I should rather say, steal—some money or some valuables which I could con­ vert into money, to bridge over tbe present emergency. You had no idea that you were talking with a man that had be-n tempted like that, eh? Well, 1 said to myself that I was simply tak­ ing a small share of what was mine by right There were $10,000 held in trust for .me, and it was a great pity if I could not have enough of it to pur­ chase food and medicine. I will do myself the credit to say that there did not appear to l>o any holes in that ar­ gument then, an<l that in every other respect I was an honest lad. “It required no skill to let myself in­ to my mother’s bouse. To slip the catch from one of the back — parlor • —-- win­ dows was the work of a moment. t My mother always kept her ” money in a desk in the Kitting room adjoining her bed-room. I bad written a note to leave there, telling her my reasons for appropriating the money. Great heav­ ens! It makes my blood run cold as my thought goea back to the horrors of that night. As I softly raised tbe win­ dow and crept into the room I was struck, it seemed to me. with the chill of death. I had no fear of being my hie very much afraid of anything or anybody. It was a chill that seemed to strike clear through me, caoa ng my teeth to chatter and my heart- to feel like a lump of iee in my bosom.

How to Moke Coffee. ’ An English cook writes on this sub­ ject: It is not good policy to purchase coffee ready ground, but if it must bo done tbe supplies should be small and frequent Anyone may test tbe purity of ground coflee by Hhaking a little over a tumbler of clear, bright cold water, and leaving it for an hour or so. Pare coi’ee communicates its color to water slowly, and when tho color ha» been imparted the infusion is still bright and clear, and tbe color is never deep. But chicory and other adulter­ nuts quickly produce un opaque and dark infusion. The difference is so striking that for ordinary purposes & better testfis not required. To plnco good coffee on the table daily is a aim­ pie and inexpt nsive business, but it can not be done at a jienny a cup, as somo folks are in hMte to aver. At for 12d. to 2Ud. per pound a good coffee in berry is always obtainable, and 1«5 pence may at the present t me be rouaidered a fair family price. It is best to roMt aud grind as wanted, but the grinding ia tue ono important point, because ground coffee quickly parts with ita aroma, and there ia a great charm m having it made immediately from the mill. In some houses the trouble of grinding is thought much of, but, as a matter of fact, it is almost nothing, and a mill .costing only a few shillings will last a lifetime. Coffee should never lie boiled; it should be made with sofa water at boiling heat, but rf hard water must be used it should not be mode toboil until wanted, for boiling augments its hardness. A common tall coffee-pot Will make as good coffee as any pat­ ented invention, but a cafHiere is a. convenient thing, as it produces bright coflee in a few minutes, and thus en­ ables us to secure a maximum of thw aronia and dispense with the use of any rubbish called “finings." Every ono to his taste, we will say, but as careleos people make the coffee too strong ono day aud too weak the next, the ground coffee and the boding water should bo i»oth measured, aud it will always tako mtl0h foar cupg of water to mako three cups of coffee. For the breakfast table the addition of about one-eighth of chicory is on improvement, but for the dinner tablo coflee should be made without chicory, because it dulls Uro piquant flavor of the genuine articla. Two points in coffee-making deter peo­ ple from using it—the trouble of griinlgrinding, however, moti be/done, and it u really natixuig, but the bo.ling of the milk can be ailvantegeoualy evaded by using Swiss milk, uhicli harmo­ nize* perfectly, and by many welltrained palates u preferred to freah milk A FrkxcH entomologist ha* describ­ ed the bird-spider of tropical America,, the largest of the several hundred known specie* of spidera, m a fui-midabie craatur* ha-, jug a laxly iutihaa long, or a diameter of iw’ven incihea with the leg* extended.

To show that there is nt present no real responsibility for property be­ longing to the department, the Secretary quotes from the report of a Iwanl appoint­ ed by him to make an inventory at the dif­ ferent navy janta and naval stkticn*.' Tho inventory hLow* an accumulation of stores and supplies aggregating over $20,000,UOO, nearly $.1,000,000 of which is obsolete aud useless. Among other item* there are 40,5GG augers and hit*, of which 25.274 are at closed yards where no work is likely to be done. The Secretary conferees that the experi­ ence of tire department in ita first attempt to create modern vessel* of war ha* been disappointing. He says: “One characteridle which nn uuarmorea cruiser must nodteu is great speed. This is determined by the function which she is expected to jierfunu in modern warfare. She in a •commerce destroyer.’ She must be able to escape from irou-crads and outrun, so as to overhaul, merchantmen. If idower than iron-clads she could not keep tb • sea, and if slower than merchantmen she might os well stay in port. ' • ’ . When the Dolphin, Boston, Atlanta, and Chicago were projected and contracts for their con­ struction entered into it was well known what speed ought to be attained, and what weight and character of machinery per ton of (uspiaeemont waa necMsary to obtain it., Commercial v«w*«h had at that time at­ tained speed ranging between ■sixteen and nineteen knots, and cruisers were built in । other countries attaining tho same speed." The Secretary compare* the trial trip* of the Dolphin nnd Atlanta with those of En­ glish and French bonis only recently com­ pleted, to tho disadvantage of tho former. The Dolphin was designed for 2,300 indi­ cated horse power, an<l developed less than 2.300, while the Alacrity nnd Surprise. En­ glish boats of 3,GuO, developed 3,173 and 3.07V respectively. The Atlanta was de­ signed to Attain 3,500 horse power, but her engines develop lens than that. The rejiort gives the bids and awards of tho new cruisers, and says regarding cruis­ er No. 1, for which no Lid was race red within tbe limit set by Congress, that orders had. been given to re­ duce her size to bring it. within such limit, $1,100,000. The report treats of armor and guns for monitors and artiior clods at great length, and deprecates tho fact that Ibis country should be content to be dcjM-nd-nt on the manufacturers -ot othe.r nation* for tbe fabrication of armor and high-powered guns. In this connection tbe Secretary recommends tlio appoint­ ment of n commission to formulate a scheme of naval construction, and continues: “If Congress nbould at ita noil session make provision for the manufacture in this country of armor aud of high-powered guns, nnd should toko step* for securing a broader and more in­ telligent consideration and treatment of the general subject of construction projwr to be undertaken, no .time in the end will be lost, and mistakes will be ayeided. Mean­ while it is my duly to call attention to the urgent necessity for immediate action." The Secretary says that it tho estimate of the Chief Constructor of the Navy is correct, in six years only three of tbe serv­ iceable cruising vessels now on the list will lie left, and, nnless a now navy shall be created, there will be none in existence after that lapse of lime. Concerning expenditures, the report says: “In tho adjustment of account* for the fiscal year ending June 30, J8W, after pay­ ing all liabilities for the year, it is believed there will be an unexpended balance of from $<XIP,(MX) to $630,000, about one-half, which is for tho pay of tbe navy and tbe marine corps, showing a total expenditure of almut S13.5iMJ.000, or upward of $500.U<XJ less than tho appropriations. These amounts do not include tbe expenditures for *!cel cruiser* and the competition of the double-turreted monitor*:’’ The report cites that this is tbe first time for many year* that tho ex­ penditures have been kept within tbo estimates. Secretary Whitney Recommends that the naval academic course be shortened to four years, invtcad of six, as at present, and also urges that apprentices be admitted to the academy. The remainder <4 the re­ port is devoted to detailed reports from tho beads of the various departments. *■ HORACE GREELEY. '.Bichmond (Va.) apoclaL] Tho Rev. Dr. William Norwood, a prom­ inent Episcopalian clergyman of thi* city, 1 was the minister who performed thu mar­ riage ceremony on tbe occasion of the wed­ ding of Horace Greeley, who was then an unknown young man, though giving promise of future prominence. Dr. 61100 Norwood was ut the time rector of a ft 5.53 church in North Carolina, and the future 0 4.50 Mrs. Greeley was a school-teacher living «• 3.50 in the *nmo pariah. When Mr. Greeley 0 AS) ♦t 4.75 -.bated North Carolina< n bi* courting ex­ peditious he and Dr- Norwood struck up tin acquaintance which lasted to the close -of Gueeley's life. At the end of the war, when Greeley vijtited Richmoud to go on 4 .12 -, Jeff erson Davis* bail bond, he sought out Dr. Norwood, his old friend, and discussed a .a* the late war very earnestly with him, each .50 eU.U0 trying te convince the other. The sub­ ject of thi* debate is made public to­ day by Dr. Norwood. The point which caused their warmest expres­ sions of differing opinion was Dr. Nor­ rU.Oi wood's assertion that the North was 1.801, and morally bound to pay the booth the full market value of the liberated slaves. Greeley at first treated the proposition as monstrous, finally, however, saying: “I will think over the subject as you have pre­ sented it and see you before I leave Rich­ 5.00 mond, when I will let you know my con­ clusion." When Mr. Greeley returned later in the day, he said to his old friend: “Doctor, I have thought it over, and, after weighing the matter calmly, am convinced that th* P1LUJ North ought to pay the South for the county officer* at The offering of bouquet* to actresses ba* lawn prohibited in Leans on tho ground The wine product of California fur qmidy and qaantriy. that the yars rail^, ertmated at 3S.30O.UuJ galloon, will be ro- The ancient Church of XdVK UWrt.............. .......... ..........

The Second Annual Report of the Commissioner of1 Agricul­ ture. Norman. J. Colman, Commissioner of Agriculture, in his annual report, deicribes in general terms the progress made in agri­ culture during recent years and the condi­ tions which contribute to make this “tbe best-fed nation on tho globe." He urges the passage of the bill now before Congress for the establishment of agricultural ex­ perimental stations in connection with the agricultural colleges. In comuieuting npon the work of the bureau of animal industry, he describes the spread of pteuro-pneumo ­ nia, and says : • “Every effort possible under existing laws has been made to locate the diseased animals aud isolate all that have been ex­ posed. It would have been most fortunate if every animal caponed to the disv-aae and liable to contract it conld have been sum­ marily slaughtered and the contagion thus eradicated. With a disease of this character at Chicago, it has been truly said that the cattle industry of this country has reached a crisis. There can be no doubt that it will be soon and wideiy disseminated unless prompt and effectual action can be instituted for ita speedy suppres­ sion. Even now it may have been scatter* ed to some extent In the West, ana the in­ vestigation* of the next year will probably bring other outbreaks to light. Tbe mat­ ter is a moat (important one, overshadowing in urgency all others affecting our agricul­ tural population, and of vital intenuit also to every consumer of beef, of milk, of butter, and of cheese. To prevent tho spread of thia seourg", which has already greally affected our foreign and interstate oommeree, additional legislation by Congrem is now esMntial. “Much valuable work has already been done in Maryland, and the danger of tbe dissemination of tho contagion from that State baa been greatly lessened. No work has been done in the State of New York, because it was evident that the appropria­ tion was not sufficient to secure any favor­ able resulte there on account of the infec­ tion. The disease also exiata in New .Jer­ sey. Pennsylvania, and Virginia, but the State authorities have not yet accepted the rules aud regulations of the department for co-operation. I greatly regret the necessity of announcing the existence of this dangerons disease over such a wide area, but (be serious results to be appre­ hended from it make it imperative that the truth should be known, in order that such legislative action may lie taken »s is indi­ cated by the emergency."

It was the pio­ neer of low-priced journalism in the west. From the first the controlling conviction of its managers has been that a “cheap paper" should be cheap only in price; that its news should be as fresh and complete, its editorial discus­ sion as able, and its general tone a;id character as pure and healthful as its best and highest-priced contemporary. This has been its ideal. How well it has succeeded in the actual attainment of so high a standard is best evidenced in the fact that it now regu­ larly prints and sells over 150.000 papers a d«ay,—a lar­ ger circulation than that of all other Chicago dailies com­ bined. The CHICAGO DAILY NEWS is an INDEPEND­ ENT newspaper. It is not partisan. Neither is it a neu­ tral. It is a paper of positive opinion, expressed without fear or favor. 11 seeks the patron­ age of people who love coun-> try’ more than party. The CHICAGO DAILY NEWS is the only 2 cent paper in the west that is a member of the Associated Press. It prints all the news. The CHICAGO WEEKLY NEWS—S pages, 64 columnsthe brida. —is the largest dollar weekly in America. �Thera is much that may be seen by a B viatl to a doll factory that would have . for many people all the force of a rove, Ut no. ‘lewprobaWy realize what a faxiMmM.

TEN YEARS AGO, or. December 26th, 1875, The CHICAGO DAILY NEWS was founded. It was the pio­ neer of low-priced journalism in the west. Fro<p the first the controlling conviction of its managers has been that a “cheap paper" should be cheap only in price; that its news should be as fresh and complete, its editorial discus­ sion as able, and its general tone and character as pure and healthful as its best and highest-priced contemporary. This has been its ideal. How well it has succeeded in the actual attainment of so high a standard is best evidenced in the fact that it now regu­ larly prints and sells over 150,000 papers a day,—a lar­ ger circulation than that of all other Chicago dailies com­ bined. The CHICAGO DAILY NEWS is an INDEPEND­ ENT newspaper. It is not partisan. Neither ' is it a neu­ tral. It is a paper of positive opinion, expressed without fear or favor. It seeks the patron­ age of people who love coun­ try more than party. The CHICAGO DAILY NEWS is the only 2 cent paper in the west that is a member of the Associated Press. It prints all the news. CHICAGO, II.L. The CHICAGO WEEKLY NEWS—8 pages, 64 columns —is the largest dollar weekly in America.

John Gilbert visited Grand Rapids and in a few hours wa* found in a stu­ pefied condition on the street. When John reapvered bo missed $500. He had been drinking with friends, which accounts for his lose. Tbe young ladies of Marshall have v«cd to give tlie g. b. to the dudelet* who "spoon” upon them during the long winter evenings, but who never suggest taking them to any thing more lively or more expensive than a prayer meeting. Some 10 days ago Coldwater wa* ex­ cited over some of her citizens being $80,000 ahead on options, but a "bucketeer” dropped in on them and in the first two days "did them up” $25,000 worth. The "gains” were of the usual gambling order. David Manse, of Colon, and a cousin each received $25,000 at the death of an uncle in California. The fortunate Stiemen determined to engage in iness together, but while arrange­ ments were making tiie cousin died, leaving hia share of the fortune to Mr. Manse. Supervisors Bath and McDermid, of Calhoun county, refused to accept double mileage for attending a meet­ ing of the board of supervisors and county canvassers, both of which were at the same time, and their honesty is being seriously commented upon by Calhoun taxpayers.

Osmuu did as he was told, and after informing the tinsmith that the kettle needed a new bottom, he asked him as a favor to send it to the house in an hour. The tinsmith held up both hands and declared it waa impossible "Why’’ aaid be, "the job can’t be done in less than two bourn, nohovc" "NonHensel~ ” replied ‘ ~ Osmun. “Pl [tiling to bet $6 that I cau do it mj quarter of the time.?

"I’ll just tak© you up on that” he answered iwntentiously, and slipping oft bis coat fell to work like a professional. The tinsmith looked on in. open-mouthed wonder. Oamun found that years of disuse had not deprived his skilled bands of their cunning. In twenty-five minutes by the watch the job was done. The ket­ tle had a new bottom. "If I hadn't seen it with mv own eves,” said the as­ tonished tinsmith, “I wouldn’t have believed it possible.

There are cords iu the human heart, strange, varying strings, which are on­ ly struck by accident, which will remain cold aud senseless to appeals tbe most passionate and earnest, and respond at last to the slightest casual touch. In the most insensible or childish minds there is some train of reflection which art can seldom lead or skill assist, but which will reveal itself, as great truths have done, by chance, and when tbe discoverer has the plainest and simplest end in view.—Dickens.

This sketch will relati the adventures of * Dennis Thompson upon his efforts to es­ cape, aud his final escape from inside tho Confederate lines iu the Shenandoah Val­ ley. in October, 1864. Tbe hero is now -living in Chenango County', New York—a very plain, unpretentious kind of huau, and who would never sound bis own trumpet; but he will cheerfully vouch for tho truth of this narrative. He related all its stirring details to me one night by a camp-fire on the Cedar Creek battle-ground, very,shortly after bis return from captivity. His whole experience with tho Confederates an a prisoner was embraced within the time of he will not be likely to forget. The.thou­ sands and tens of thousands of thrilling adventure* of the volunteer roldicra in thu field took almost every shape and form; many escapes were more arduous, and en­ tailed far more suffering, but few were more curious or more exciting than that of, ray good comrade, Dennis Thomjvson. He -was of Company I. Ono Hundred and Fourteenth New York Volunteers, aud had been in the service two years. He had been made a Lieutenant for ment and good conduct, nud at the time of his capture he I •was attached to tho ambulance train of the Nineteenth Army Corps. War is crowded -with chances and changes, nnd the impos­ sible, or the apparently impossible, is what frequently happens; but the man who had predicted before the thing occurred that any one with that train stood in the least ■danger of capture by the epomv would have been regarded as a lunatic. The train was parked in a grove, well-nigh n mile in rear of our lines, with n sufficient escort to protect it from the guerrillas; and whnt oould possibly be feared from Early's army, lying somewhere off beyond the height*jpf Fisher's Hill, with twenty thou­ sand Lnion soldLra encamped between? Yet in just this situation wns Thompson made captive; and to make it clear how this could be, ns well as to give a better understanding of his situation after being taken, a brief reference to tho battle of Cedar Greek becomes necessary. Gallons of good ink Ixave Men spilled over tho oontroyeisba arising from that his­ toric field, and the poet. T. Buchanan Bead, has immortalized it and its most conspicuous actor in some verses which are full of jioetic exaggeration, an well oh stirzing rhyme. All that is necessary for me to «ay here about it, os connected with Lieutenant Thompson’s adventures, is, that before daylight on the foggy morning of October ID, 1864, the Confederates, having •ilently gained our left by a movement which, for difficulty and audacity, can hard­ ly be paralleled in the whole history of the war, attacked the Eighth Corps, and wellnigh dispersed it; struck the Nineteenth, which, lifter a brief and bloody resistance, was also compelled to retire; that the Sixth Corps, coming up to meet the shock, wus also, after a good tight, flahked, and forced back; that these last two corps retreated some three or four miles, to a j>osition in the woods near Middletown, where with th, cavalry on the flanks they presented a good front, and would have repelled any attack the enemy might have made on them, even if Sheridan had not come up; that the Confederates, as well as our lopses. hud been severely punished in the morning’s fight, and were very chary about a further attack; that up to this (joint, nevertheless, the day was a decided defeat for us, since we had been compelled to retire from our ground, End lost half ourartillery, had suf­ fered heavily in killed and wounded, and had probaldy not less than six thousand straggfers on the turnpike between Middle­ town end Winchester; that about one o’cluck Sheridan camo up, hot-foot, from the latter place, hundreds, and possibly thousands, of the stampeded follow­ ing him bock to their duty; that he visited every regiment, and succeeded in nutting hifl own fiery spirit into every one of them; that about four o’clock our whole line ad­ vanced, and, after a very brief but sharp ■fight, drove tiro enemy pell-mell before it, taking hundreds of prisoners, retaking •every piece of our captured artillery, and twenty-four others; and that wo never stopped the pursuit until we had reached and occupied our camps again, which wo did near dark. Our cavalry kept up the chase some hours longer, bringing in many zuore prisoners. This is my view in brief of this Loilromo, sanguinary, and glorious day; and, as the writer passed through Chase scenes with a regiment whose killetl and wounded amounted to one hundred and nineteen out of two hundred and fifty en­ gaged. he may claim to know something about it It is necessary to add only that in the aurprise of the early morning tbe Confed•zaies secured at least fifteen hundred pris­ oners; that they were marched to u place near Strasburg, perhaps three miles from tho field, and kept there all day until tbe stragglers of Early's army, late in the after­ noon, rejxnted that th« fortunes of the day hud completely changed, when they were rapidly put in motion aud znarahud 'so far tho same night that they were beyond the rescue of our cavalry. ' The bulk of them were lauded in thu Richmond prison* a •week later. Why Thompson was not Song them at that time we will now allow 1 to tel! for himself. When the great upsoar of the attack burst vzpen the lelt of our army, our train wns speedily hitched up and galloped across the fields to a point near Middletown. By the time we had reached there daylight was coming'on, and our Captain paused to take an obacrvatioti.

From there the whole party conducted me ns much as three miles, over to tho west side of the - bill, where there wri a largo picket post. A brief consultation which they held showed mo that they thoroughly understood the situation. They were -cut off from thoif command; Sheridan's cav­ alry wits probably south of them, on tho pike; they must keep to the woods till they passed them. They started off at a fast walk, and soon took a trot. I lagged be­ hind, of course, and they pulled up and held an «Jigiy conversation about what to do with mo. Some proposed shooting me on the spiot, others liberating me, and still others, to hold on to jno st all hr.xards.

Snider lives one mile south of Mill Grove, a small station on the Pan-Handle Railway, in the eastern part of Blackford County. Your correspondent found him industriously performing his heel-and-toe oct His iionw is a one-story log-cabin, located in the center of an acre lot. Around the house a beaten path, worn fully five inches below the surface, indicates the route pursued by Snider in his weary and almost ceaseless tramp. To vary the mon­ otony of his tramn, Snider has two other promenades, both tn tbe rear of the dwell- diameter. During the past three months Snider has walked incessantly out of doors, through rnin, sleet, and snow; but, ns the exposure had begun to toll on him, his relatives fitted up a room in the cabin for his pedestrian cxcrcisoa. , Two years ago Inst April Snider, then a robust man of fifty-four, while at work in a field, was oeized with u spasmodic twitch­ ing of bis-arms and bonds nud severe cramping of tho muscles of the body. He was incapacitated fhf labor of any kind, and the physician summoned pronounced thtl case a most serious one. After a few days of suffering all symptoms of nervous derangement disappeared, and for a week Snider was apparently ns well as ever. Then tho muscular convulsions again man­ ifested themselves, but this time iu the legs. He lost control of both legs, and the pro­ pensity to walk, which will eventually carry Snider to tho grave, took complete {lossession of him, and with the exception of about four bouts each day, from 1 to 5 o'clock a. m., ho in constantly on his feet and traveling at the rate of four miles on hour. At 5 o'clock in tho morning, after a sleep of three to four Lours. Snider begins his daily tramp and continuous walking, eat­ ing his.meals as he walks, until ons o'clock tho following morning, when ho sits down in a chair and sleeps soundly, being unable to rest in a recumbent position. . At the outset his friends endeavored by force to induce him to remain qnict, but he immediately became frantic, and with tears in his eyes the patient begged to be released or he would die.' Snider was placed in tho State asylum at Indianapolis for a brief time, but was returned by the authorities there, pronounced harmless and incurable. He is perfectly rational, but talks but little about his peculiar affliction, and seems rather averse to newspaper notoriety. The walker stated tunt ho could not pos­ sibly control himself, and that his physi­ cians had informed him that ho would walk until death claimed him. When Snider began his tramp he weighed IGO pounds; be now weighs 150 pounds, and has not an ounce of suncrtlaous Hesh. His muscles are hard and firm. Ho has fully recovered from a recent indisposition, when ho was thought to l>e dying. He walks with a quick step of uniform length, striking bis heels into the soil each time, tho shock being apparently a grateful onff’to hit mus­ cles. At times Snider sleeps ns he walks, and for an hour, prided by relatives, be swings around tho circle, snoring loudly, and upon awakening he runs nt a rapid gait for sev­ eral miles, to “rest himself," as ho soys. Snider suffers no pain, and is apparently contented while in motion. Dr. Davidson.-of Hartford City, who is Snider’s physician, and has complete charge of the case, said that, while his recovery is impossible, Snider would probably live for many months. “The affection is a disease of the spinal cord." said tho Doctor, "and from the hips down his physical condition is not subjeetto government Ly the brain, the great nerve center." In October Snider was placed behind a plow in a field and made fair progress for a time, but yhen the plow struck a hidden root and stopped, Snider, Instead of ex­ tricating it, let go of the handles, walked around the homes, and set off alone on his regular tramp. It is estimated that during the two years he has been walking, Snider has traveled 25,000 miles. Tbe case excites widespread interest among the medical fraternity, many mem­ bers of which have visited Snider at his home, diagnosing the disease while walk­ ing with him, as he is unable to stop even for a moment. His case is said by j^ystcians to be unparalleled, and his powers of endurance superhuman. A FAMOUS HUMORIST. A New York dispatch states that A. E.

Taking the ax with which ho worked he noiselessly entered, but as he reached tho beside Swilling sprang up. Ho was given a blow on the head which went crashing through his brain. Another blow killed Mrs. Swilling, while asleep. Haring got his hand into tbe bloody busi­ ness, Sanders |faen deliberately went to tbe three children and drove lhe poll of his ax through their skulls. His murderous deeds accomplished, the next thought was for concealment. A lamp nearly filled with • !l was ou the mantelpiece. This Sanders took and poured lhe oil over the bed­ clothes. Ho then applied fire, and, putting tho stolen money in his jio. krt, sallied forth for the purpose of giving plausi­ bility . to the doed. He ran to the house of George Swilling, brother of his victim, and told him of the fire. George hurried back, accompanied by several neighbors, while Sanders continuad in another direction. Unfortunately for Sanders, the house wo. not completely burned when tho party reached it, and the fire’ had not yet touched tho body of Mr. Swilling. It was thus that tbe wound on Swilling's head was discovered. Then the absence of Sanders was noted. Search was at once made fur him, and before the day closed lie wns caught and confessed the bloody deed. The citizens took him from the officers.' and hurried him to the rains of Swilling's house. When the mob reached the scene of thn tragedy they made Sanders describe in detail the whole crime. As soon as ho bad finished the narration they gave him five minutes in which to pray. A fire wns built on the spot where Swilling's holy had lain, and into it San­ ders, tied head and foot with chains, was thrown. When the pile had burned away, leaving nothing but charred bones, the party separated. Sanders was a fugitive from South Caro­ lina, where a charge of murder was hang­ ing over him. At tho ago of 16 he com­ muted forgery, nnd therefor sened an imErisonment of five'years. Upon his release e married an unsophisticated country girl. He quarreled with her in January last and cut her throat. He disappeared that night nnd bad not !>e«n seen or heard from until tho particulars of this terrible tragedy were, made public.

The wreck was strewn along the beach for three or four miles. About twenty-five men are believed to be lost. The captain and mate, with eight or ten mtn, were saved. At the time of the disaster a dense fog nnd heavy sea prevailed. Tbe Atlantic left hero for a cruise in tbe South Pacific, after which aha was to proceed north. She was an old vessel, having been built in 1851; was 251 tons register, and was own­ ed by J.- A W. II. Wing, of New Bedford, Mass. She was commanded by Capt. Thomas F. Warren. Following is Captain Warren’s slateirient of the wreck: "’I here was a heavy bead swell and no wind. The currents were so strong thut we could not get out of the swell. We let go both anchors, hut tbe sea Kwent the decka, and was ho heavy that tbe anchors could not hold. We dragged ashore and struck at 1:30 a.m. Men were being washed off during all thia time by tbe im­ mense waves which washed over us. The vessel went to pieces an hour nnd a half a-ter she struck. There was a very heavy fog. and it was pitch dark. We succeeded in lowering two boats, but both capsized before gt-ttirg two bout-lengths from the ship. The first boat contained Z. H. Doty, flrur innhr, Anton l’i rry. third mate, and four or five of the crew. That was the last we saw of them. In tbe second boat were myself, second mate, Ring, and five men. When we were uwatnped the sea carried us iu till we touched bottom, when we dragged ours-lveii ashore. We made no signals of distress, os it was loo foggy for any to be seen." As soon as the captain reached the shore he made his way in an exhausted condition to the life-saving station, a few hundred yards away, and gave the alarm. The ap­ paratus was immediately got out, but owing to tbe darkness and fog it was r-oflle”time Ix fore the wreck could be locatiR. A line was then shot over her, but proved of no service, aa it became entangled in floating wreckage, aud tbe vessel shortly went to pieces. The vessel was valued at $10,006, and her outfit at $15,000; insurance, $5,<>00. The captain and crew numbered iorty-two perrons, and up to now only e*even are known to be saved.

About tbwwloeest shave ever made by an American merchantman wns the escape of tbe ship Asteroid from the privateer Ala­ bama. lhe story of which is told by B. F. S., in tbe San’Francisco Argonaut. The narrative reads as follows: * Our voyage continued prosperous, and nothing suspicious was discovered until one morning when wo were off the Cape of Good Hope, os we were soiling along with a fresh breeze right aft, in sight of Table Mountain, at tho entrance of the harbor of Cape Trwn, with Caj^ Legullas about twenty miles distant on tbe j>ort bow. A close lookout wus constantly kept, and before long smoke, as if coming from a steamer close under tbe land, apparently bound to the eastward, was reported. Soon her hull appeared in sight, and by the aid of a glass I made out that she was a low, rakish-looking craft, neither like a man-ofwar nor a merchant steamer, but at the distell definitely what she wa*. Under the circumstances it made mo feel vary suspi­ cious. In a few moments she discovered us, tui was evident by her altering her course and steering directly toward us, nt tho same time hoisting tho American flag. I felt that it must bo the famous Alabama, and that we would be safer out of her compa­ ny. But it was a case of sails and steam combined against sails alone. The steam-. er was closing up with us, and presently her signals, asking “What ship is that'?* could be read. 1 hoisted the American flag, feeling certain that tho steamer’s Captain wool 1 not be deceived in the build ana appearance of my vessel any more than I was in his, and if I was to be taken I would fly my own flag to the last. The steamer then hoisted the signal, "Heave to, I want to speak to you;" but instead of complviug with this request I hauled my ship about four points to tho southward, bringing the wind on our quarter, and made all sail, which increased our speed from eight to ten knots per hour. Seeing this evolution, the steamer threw off all disguise, hauled down the “stars and stripes," hoist­ ed the "stars and burs," and fired a shot di­ rectly nt us, but the distance was too great, and it fell far short. Then the smoke commenced to pour out of the steamer's funnel in heavy, black volumes, all sail was made, and the chase began. Slowly and surely the steamer kept gain­ ing on ns, sending shot after shot from their forecastle gun, but all fell short. 8ho was now about three miles astern, rolling and pitching in the sea, which was every minute growing heavier and heavier, the spray flying over her nt time« so as almost to hide her from sight Tbe soa striking us abeam wou’d wet us from stem to stern and send tho spray up to the very tops. Tbe intense excitement and anxiety felt at this moment are more easily imagined than described. At intervals strong flaws of wind be­ tokened a gale at hand. Already the wind had increased. Our distance from the steamer had lessened; she was now only about a mile astern; occasionally a shot from her forecastle gun came over or near us. They hoped to disable the ship in spars or rigging, but their aim was uncer­ tain, owing to the heavy sea. However, more than once the shot went through sails and rigging, fortunately doing no ma­ terial damage. Noticing a commotion on deck, I called the mate to ascertain the cause. He informed me that the crew were Alabama cotne up with us to prevent further risk of their live*. Fortunately I had good officer*, on whom I could rely. I ordered them to get their revolvers, and told lhe steward to gH mine.

Everybody has indulged a slim and sickly hope that Attorney-General Gar­ land mLht mnkc np his mind during the few weeks-yet remaining of this year to turn over a new leaf on New Year's Day, but a close search through the annual report of that officer fails to disclose anything or. which to nourish such a hope uuy longer.

The squash of a jndite decided this to be gambling, disposed of goods by chance, bigamy, dyseuf ry or some other offence against the constitution, aud whacked it to Norton accordingly. It is not probable that any Mexican filibustering expedition of a formida­ ble diameter will get as far ns the Bio Grande, much leas cross it. Tliongh it would Hot be honorable in our govern­ ment, it would still lie very much to oar advantage to let tbe would-be fili­ buster* proceed. Some bad stock would thus be taken out of the country and the Mexican authorities would pro­ bably see to it that not lunch of it came back. The death of venerable Hen ry Willis, of ship eanal fame, will touch a cord of regret all over Michigan. Whether his canal scheme was practicable or not, Mr. Willis’ advocacy of it for so many rears was purely patriotic and honest He wanted to do the state ef Michigan what he thought would bo a great ser­ vice, and this devotion to the interests of tbe state wns unselHah and noble. His undaunted perseverance was a fine example. He wns every way a public spirited, honorable and honored citizen, and bis memory will live long in the gratefnl recollections of the people aa that of one who sought to do them good.

While Powderly was qiieatiouing him another rushed in and demand­ ed a warrant for toe snrst of toe one who bad come first. As might be ex­ pected each l>egau a torrent of abuse. Powderly commanded them to keep quiet, .bet they wouldn’t. They wanted to fight.thm and there. "IsAtare no wav in which you can comproSheAhe matter!" asked Justice Powderly. No; compromise was a thing of the past. “I am sorry to see two citizens of Scranton going to law," said Powder­ ' "If he would fight,” said one of the applicants, "I wouldn’t go to law; but he is a coward." "1 will fight you any rime,” retorted the other. . "Mike,” naid Justice Powderly to his big bailiff, "lock the frontdoor.” Mike obeyed. "Now take the chairs out of the bar, and pile them away.” Mike did this. "Now take my papers here aud put them away, and move tho desk back against the wall.” This also did Michael, the bailiff’. "Now, gentlemen,” said Powderly addressing tbe men who wanted war­ rants, "there you are—plenty of room —fight it out—aud Mike, you keep your hands off?' The situation at once assumed a lud­ icrous phase aud there was no tight. Neither any wariant*. for the two men shook hands and walked away. There is one individual that we have always had great sympathy for. andthat is the last man in the procesaion. He doesn’t want to be the last man, course, but implacable fate puts huh there, and there he seem* to. stay. There is no way of getting out of it. Did yon ever wait to ace tbe last man in n great street paradeT Of course there must Ite a last man in a procession as there is a head man to lead it. He is.that thric? unfortunate individual who closes up the rear. Ho gets tired of waiting long before the procession Set* under way, and has halt a mind to rcak rank aud go home. Then, ns the long procession moves down the street, he is conscious all the time that evenrbody will be weary of thaahow by the time he comes a’ung, labdrously bring­ ing up the teat, and n<» matter how well he mav march, no one is going to pay any attention to him. His only utility seems to be to keep the express wagons from crowding on to tbe fellows pro­ ceeding him. The rear of a big procession always stragyles more or less, and it becomes necessary for those composing it to break into a sharp run frequently tin order to avoid gettiug left altogether. Then it is that the last man has n dis­ tressing time of it. Dogs chase him nnd bark at his heels. He is cut off’ by a wagon at a croa« street, which whips in and prevent* his joining toe main body, and if he isn’t nimble enough to jump over the wagon he is liable to get mixed up with all sorts of vehicles, ami cursed by drivers individually aud col lectively. Sometimes be is compelled to make a long detour of side and par­ allel street* iu order to catch up with the procession again. The populace are not favorably dis­ posed to toe last man, somehow. There is a disposition to hoot at him. and 'mischievous fellows have beep known to throw obstacles in the way, to trip him up. We have seen him trip on a hoop, stumble over a wheelbarrow, roll over a barrel and lie knocked down by au express wagon going half a block. You can’t help admiring the persisten­ cy of the man, aud his evident deter­ mination to bring.ni) the rear at what­ ever personal Mcriiice. It i* a thankless operation, though.

A CVRIOC8 story is related by the Middletown (I’o.) Pres*. Mrs. Eliza­ beth Booser, who recently feelebrate.l her 88th birthday, dreamed on Monday night that she was sitting in the room, and of a sudden experienced great pain in her right side «nd limb. She arose on Tuesday morning in her usual health, and while sitting near the stovo in thefoienoon commenced to feel pain in her right side and limb, which in a short time increased until it was almost Unendurable. On Wednesday Mrs. B. suffered greatly, nnd the pain had not decreased at '/ist accounts. Unfortu­ nately tho dream didn’t tell when it would. A Boston philanthropist and student of human nature bought a dozen cheap umbrellas, h id a nickel plate insorted in each handle on which was his ad­ dress, and tho request that the umbrella be returned, and on the first rainy day went out on tbe street and handed one to each umbrelialess woman that ho met. All were returned within a week, but one, aud in place of that came a note saying that it had been stolen and that the writer would pay for it The next rainy day he handed the umbrella to twelve unprotected men. He never saw but one of them again; nnd that was lirought in by a friend who said lie had stolen it at a church festival. A Greifswald correspondent re­ ports to tho Kolnii'che Zcitung a beautiful lunar phenomenon seen there some evenings ago. The crescent clearly defined was in the southwestern heavens, when suddenly at its right side an enlarged reflection of tho cres­ cent appeared, just as sharply defined and shining as clearly as the original crescent, which it gradually seemed to embrace. After some minutes there appeared or the left side a further re­ flection of this original image, but less brilliant and distinct. Both images re­ mained visible for a considerable time and then faded gradually away with the deepening darkness, leaving the errs cent moon shining brightly as before. Fred Archer, rhe English jockey, was an extremely temperate man. In address and appearance he waa quiet and gentlemanly, and though, of course, quite uneducated, was accustomed to behave with refinement. His excellence as a rider depended a good deal on bis remArkable strength and the wonderful power of his hands. He had a borso under perfect control, and, in this, per­ haps, he excelled any of his rivals, and had tho gift of pushing a horse at a pinch and bringing him in with a rush at the finish. Archer, though tho son of an old steeple-chaser, was no good in the hunting field. He could not jump, and never rode in a steeplechase. On the other hand, his rivals. Cannon and Wood, ore extremely fond of hunt­ ing. ' Bohn time ago an English gentle­ man found a large turnip in his field of the shape ot a man's head, and with the resemblance of the features of a man. Struck with curiosity, he bad a cast made of it, and sent tbe cast to a phrenologist, stating that it was taken from the head of a celebrated profess­ or, and requested an opinion iherewn. After sitting in judgment, it was -re­ ported that it denoted a man of acute mind and deep research, that he hod the organ of quick perception, and also of perseverance, with another that in­ dicated credulity, This opinion waa transmitted to the owner of the cost, with a letter requesting, aa a particu­ lar favor, that ha would send the head To this be replied that he ately left the scene and returned rapidly to the city. Some time later a man camo into his office complaining that some ou’e had filled him full of bird­ shot Ackley proceeded to pick them out one by one, at the same time con­ doling with the man, and at the close of the process charged him a good bill. KEEPING LT APPEARANCES. '.From New Tort Mall and Exprasa.?

VI life sue «nd -wuu growth nivntu :. “Not only' plantfl, plants, and an.i fruit?, and seeds, but animals, and insects, and reptiles contain precisely the same ele­ ments we find in the sbilif of earth on which they Hubsist, and only differ from the earth by what is known on organic construction and the condition. In all things -conceivable there are but the two stages: the living and the so-called dead, and it is chemical action which is accountable for the change from .one condition to tho other." This admitted, tho correspondent argues ax follows. “ All our divisions and subdivisions of both living and dead matters are sim­ ply the divisions ot chemical combina­ tions of constituent elements; the one capable of life aud the other containing the elements of life in a more fixed condition, crystalline instead of or­ ganic. Besides tlpwe two grand divis­ ions of mutter in tho more fixed condi­ tion, there are many degrees of change frpm the one condition toward the other, known as rust, or oxidation and aerification'into the primitive elements of which they are comj»osed. It is in this third or transitory state that all change from one condition to the other is ef­ fected; in the earth for the growth of vegetation and in the stomach for the growth of animal being-j. If the “primitive” rock did not disintegrate we should have no soils; if no soils no vegetation; no vegetation no animation and n'b life; and if the “primitive" rock did not contain tho elements of life thus locked up in their crystalline condition there is no other source from which it could bo philosophically de­ rived to us, and, as wo have said be­ fore, chemical aetionds tho cause and tho sun the source of all life.

The indefatigable Henry Willis, of ship canal fame, died at Battle Creek, Monday morning at 3 o’clock, aged 86. He has been gradually failing lor four months, since his return from Wash­ ington. He was exceedingly public spirited, and his death is very general­ ly regretted. The funeral occurred on Tuesday. Henry Willis was born in Philadelphia, in 1801. His ancestors came from Wales. His father, who was a cabinetmaker, died when he was an infant and his mother soon followed. When seven years old Henry went to Lancaster county. Pa., and worked on a farm untill 16. He learned the shoe­ maker’s trade, but drifted into rail­ roading. He worked several years on the construction of the Pennsylvania railroad, and became superintendent of the old Portage road which crossed the Allegheny mountains. In 1837 he moved to Detroit and became superin­ tendent of the works of the Michigan Central railroad, and a year later he took charge of the construction of a railroad between Kalamazoo and Alle­ gan. He moved to Calhoun county in 1830 and settled near Battle Creek, when that town had less than 60inhab­ itants. He cleared a great deal of land and put up many farm buildings. In 1873, in fulfillment of a pledge made to Detroit friend, he went to Portland, Me., filled a bottle with water from the Atlantic ocean, and carried it by rail to San Francisco and poured it into tbe Pacific.

T., Dec. 13th, 1886. Editor Nauvillk News, Dbab Bia:—Will you kindly make room In the column* of your valuable paper for a bit of information that we wish the good people of Woodland and Sunfield to know, concerning Sylvester Witberal, the young man who waa murdered near Groton, Dakota, a abort time since. Various rumors have reached us from time to time, from our friends In the east, saying that Charles Miller, formerly of Woodland, was the murderer, and furthermore that J. Hitt and myself were impllcated.in the affair. Bo far this is utterly false. ’Tie true the mur­ derer’s name was Chas. Miller, but be former­ ly lived four miles north of Portland in Ionia county. We think Mr. Hunter rather near sighted brother Charles, declaring It to be the exact image of the murderer, and we do uct see any resemblance whatever between the two. While our friends were lamenting the low of our brother, he bad been, exceedingly bus* en­ joying himself among the wild geese, prairie chickens, etc. We wish to inform our friends In the east ouUlJc the bounds of civilization. and are far from being aa heaihenlah aa people In the vi­ cinity of Woodland and Sunfield suppose ub to We do not want our friend* to lo*e * elugle night'* sleep concerning us, for while Dame Rumor 1b ao very busy in Michigan, we are in tbe ;ery best of spirits “if the thermometer la 40 degrees below zero”.and are aa free from being outlaws as we ever were in our live*. Truly Yours, F. H. Millib. ored Baptist church in Florida recently. The preacher waded Into tbe creek to a depth of four feet, and a deacon led out a sister to be baptized. Shewa* gently laid backward on the surface of the water, which wet only tbe back of her clothing and of her head. Then sbe started for dry land; but the congregation on the shore with one voice declared that the sister had n t been immersed, and that the scriptures plainly commanded that tlie candi­ date must t>c buried beneath the water. She was at once led back and baptized thoroughly and scripturaliy, to the eridef. edification of MALARIA. u If people could only know what a splendid medicine Simmons Liver Regulator is there would be many a phy­ sician without a patient, and many an interminable doctor bill saved. I consider it infal­ lible in malarial infection. I had for many years been a perfect physical wreck from a combination of com­ plaints, all the outgrowth of malaria in my system, and even under the skillful hand of Dr. J. P. Jones, oi thia city, I had despaired of ever being a well woman again. Simmons Liver Reg­ ulator was recommended to me. I tried it; it helped me, and it is the only thing that ever did me any good. I peraevered in its use, and I am now in perfect health. I know the medicine cured me, and I always keep it as a reliable ‘standby’ in my family.” Resp’y, Mn>.
