Inst. A brief sketch of this great man's life may not prove uninteresting. Wendell Phillips was born In Boston on the 29th of November, 1811. His father, Mr. John Phillips, was the first person elected to the office of Mayor of Boston, over sixty years since. The son was sent to Harvard College when about 16 years old, wherfc he graduated in 1831, and then entered the law school at Cambridge, of which Judge Story had been for some years the master spirit. In that school he remained \ two years, and he continued hi$ studies of the law elsewhere, as he was not admitted to practice till 18t4, when he was4n-his-23d year. There was a bitter pro-slavery sentiment in Boston at the time but the disfavor with which AboHtlonists*ere treated did not daunt Wendell Phillips from joining the cause. It was in 1836, when he waB In his 25th year, that he formally became one of the little band of anti-slavery agitators. This led to the loss of his promising profesalon- T_h_ee SABbooTIIUHkomuih stfBs held t t a t the Constitution of the United States was a wicked compact, having for its purpose the maintenance of Blaverv and they refused assehtjto Tt.

BCGG'S CONFBSSION. —The mystery surrounding the* Maybee murders and the Townsend murderous assault on Long Island has cleared away by. a Partial confession from Charles H. Rugg, the Negro who assaulted Selab Sprague a few days ago; '1hat he was guilty of *hem all. Just before supper time the other nlgbt Rugg remarked to a jail attendant that there was no use concealing anything from the officers, and asked to have Prosecuting Attorney Townsend called that he might make a clean breast of the wbole matter. The attendant endeavored to have Rugg confide in him, but all that-he would_8ay was that i l Ihad the biggest hand in of the prisoner's frenzy for getting money WHS that he had a mistress to support in New York, while his wife waa left a charity charge on that county.

After the war Mr. Phillips turned his attention to what he regarded as other needed reforms. He was the greatest of all our public lecturers In eloquence, pith and point. His commanding presence, bis eagle eye and fine Roman face would have marked him out aaywhere. The temperance reform ever found him a steady and able and most consistent supporter. He-advocated the rignts of women, a course that he followed legltlmately and logically from his antl-filavery principles. All other causes that were worthy ot bis advocacy commanded Mr. Phillips' support. His lectures on The "Life of Daniel O'Connell" and "The Lost Arts" were repeated hundreds of times.

Durand then resumed his seat, having first stooped to pick up Miss Esterbrook's fan whichdropped Miss Estcrbrook waSj the heiress of Mrs, Brown's establishment—no one knew just how much of an heiress she was. She was what is described as " <. maiden lady of uncertain age,11 whic i in this case meant that every one felt quite certain she w a s iorty, at least, though conjecture had not ventured to fix the special number of years beyond that figure. She had a great opinion of herself, of her wealth-, ef her diamonds* dozen t i m e s . She turned the envelope over and over before opening it, prolonging her joy by anticipation. She had not the J east idea/ from whom it came—didn't care. This was no ordinary valentine—such as money can buy in the shops—such as any girl might have if somebody chose to send it to her. This was something for her, something that somebody had made especially for Mamie Taylor. First, in the center of the paper was her own face, exquisitefy drawn and colored, arwork of a r t which even her untu tored taste felt to be perfect. And this was completely surrounded—filled the whole sheet of paper— witn flowers.

But she was not discontented - she had health, vouth and good spirits; and on holidays and feast days ehe generally found herself sufficiently remembered to prevent any special feeling of loneliness. There was just one day out the three hundred and sixty-five when Mamie lelt herself forgotten and neglected by all mankinth This pretty girl of eighteen years, had never in all her life received a valentine, and she longed to *e remembered. I t was t h e 3d of February, t h e afternoon of a-perfect Winter day. The air was frostyjrot_pleajant; the merry jingle of sleigh-bells rung in t h e air; already the short day, drawing to a close in early twilight, was brightened by the street-lamps and the nioon-like radiance of electric lights. T h e s h o p / were g a y r » n d - m a n y a window glowed with the brilliant coloring of hundreds of valentines. / Mamie Taylor, coming h o m e i r o m her d a y s duties, lingered at e/ery .aucu window, looking longingly ^at the beautiful valentines, smiling ^ e r r i i y a t -the -funny opes.-and-wlshiag with-childlike M. Durand returned the fan with a smile irresistible a n d a "Pardon, mademoiselle," gentle and deferential, Miss Esterbrook smiled in return, and M. Durand seemed really fascinated. He quite devoted himself to the heiress, and, to Mrs. Brown's disgust, did not go much as look at Mamio again. " H u m ! " thought the irate landlady selecting the toughest part of the turkey to put on his ulate, "one of those beggarly counts, "I suppose, who has come here to pick, up a rich wife. Well, I ' m sure I wish him joy of her; she's the worst pay and t h e biggest eater in the fyi^ nor the wit to think of it. house, for a l l n e r money." Aha" w ^ b a T * --"'-"- *^T,T T* V*a TWT vigorous dig of the spoon, she drew out a large supply of the stuffing that seemed most highly flavored! And so tumbled to the ground Mrs. Brown's air-built castle regarding Miss Taylor's future. I t waj/about a .week later that the good-natured landlady met her pet boarder as she came in one wish that "rilled h j e r - ^ a , n i e earnestness the simple heart at thijr season of the year. She sighed, unconsciously, and, turning away fronitne window before which she had been standing walked almost into-the arlu? of another admirer of valentines who had b e e n / s t a n d i n g b e - 4 r o m - school, a n d / w i t h , sua smile on her beaming face that Mamie involuntarily answered" with a laugh. " W h a t i s / t h e matter,' dear Mrs. Brown.

' 'You dear Mrs. Brown! you a r e determined that some one sbaljt m a k e me a countess."1 "No; this one ain't a count; only A drawing master; b u t so and I've taken a great fancy to j^s to his falling in love with you, —well, that's like enough. Y o u Hits one^-well, persuaded herself that she inhaled their fragrance. '^Who could have sent i t ? " Mamie murmured a t last, the beanty of her valentine rousing an interest and cariosity she had not felt before Examining her valentine yet more closelv, Mamie presently discovered a line of writing, in the finest possible text, just beneath the picture of her own face, and soon made out the words. —'-Wilt you be my Valentine AcmixE." "Achile?" Mamie repeated aloud. "Then it comes from M. D u r a n d ! " Her valentine fell from her hand she was so greatly disappointed. But quickly picking it u p again, she added, "No. 1 won't believe it. He has not the talent to make anything so beauti- - Achille? Let me t h i n k ! I t is a French name, and probably not very uncommon—but I don't know any one else who is French, except—oh, M. Fontejn! He is a drawing- master, and perhaps a painter!" A warm blush dyed little Mamie's face, causing: even her delicate little..ears to grow more rosy than their wont as she thought of the drawing master, nicer certainlv parted and said, " 1 am going away for a few days,/but w^hen I come home again I shall naive something very serious to say to you, Mamie understood quite well, and *elt herself almost as much engaged as if that something were already laid and responded to with the " Y e s " that wan on her lipp. Tbe next morning M. Fonteyn went away, and Mamie went to school. All day she felt lonely, and longed for t h e next few days to be gone; in the afternoon she felt still more lonely, and, instead of lingering to look in the shopwindows, she hurried home u ith speed, fr'ad t o get o u t of the streets, and away rom the blustering March winds, As she ran u p the stairs, she was surprised to observe that Mrs. Brown's frontdoor stood wide open, while the sound of voices in altercation, then in command, could be distinctly heard; and as she entered the hall, she found that two policemen guarded the parlor door, within which stood her landlady, looking surprised but not angry; M. Achille Durand, looking terrified and pale, Miss Esterbrook on her knees, There was a fourth figure, tall a n d elegant, but strangely familiar; his face was not turned toward her, a n d what its expression might betoken Mamie could not guess. Mrs. Brown was addressing the strarFger:— •\What has he done, sir?" she asked. "Of what do vou accuse this gentleman? He has acted most honorably a n d honestly here. "Isn't there some mistake? That gentleman is Monseer Asheel Durand." '•The scoundrel," interrupted t h e stranger, " i s an imposter— a thief; he has stolen my name, aa well a s everything else belonging to me. I am Achille Durand. Come, officers, waste no time —take the wretch, and if he values his own comfort, he will come quietly." "Achille D u r a n d ? " thought Mamie. Was every Frenchman named Achille? And thaFvotee! WEere—iad she heard The P r i n t e r . Texas Sittings tells about in its funny way, as follows: We will a t t e m p t to— describe t h e printer without makingany puns on the words and phrases " t a k e , " " q u o i n s , " "proof," " o u t of sorts," etc!, and if we succeed we will be the first who have written about t h e printer without distorting several languages to make puns on t h e technical terms of his trade. We would rather write of the modesty, diffidence and sobrvsty of the printer, a n d of his unobtrusive piety and his unostentatious domestic habits, but for the fact t h a t the printer has none of these vices. We would prefer describing him in the quiet retirement of the family circle in his cosy parlor on a winter night—the revered father of a numerous offspring —teaching his little ones their catechism, or as he sits in the mellow twilight of a summer's evening, on t h e boneysuckle-povered porch of his modest cottage, earnestly reading, by the fading light of day, comforting precepts from the inspired page. We repeat, that is how we would love to write of him, but, alas! we cannot do such injustice to o u r reputation for veracity as to describe him thus, as he ia—not. he's nice, +rrm. dear He charming ia faefcrr and it was only Mrs Brown who called him " o l d . " Mamie did not think him old—at least not very " o l d . " True. his hair was gray, and he wore glasses; and she glanced~at her valentine again, sighed half i n pleasure, half in regret, and wondered what M. Fonteyn's Christian name was, and half wished, half feared it might not be Achille! T h a t evening Mamie regarded-MDurand with unusual attention. He did not once look toward her. but devoted himself to Mi9s Esterbrook. ThP n e x t d a y at school as she was The printer begins life as a devil, and remains ia that chrysalis condition for a period of several years, during which time his duties consist of distributing type in wrong cases, harassing the editors for copy, falling down stairs with, a galley full of type, and consuming early <and unripe apples, m a m m o t h watermelons, bottles of home-made wine, and such painful compliments that are presented to the editor, a n d which, not appreciating himself, he sends to the devil. When he ceases t o be a devil he becomes a compositor, and assumes all the rights and privileges of the craft, especially that of raising-thedevil e v e r y ' S a t u r d a y night when he gets paid off. ? The printer is gregarious a n d con- ^}val in his habitsr- but that is no excuse for people who continually libel him by representing him to be in a condition of inebriety from one year's end to the other. These people a r e prejudiced, and they allow their prejudices to overshadow their sense of justice. We it? It was familiar; and as the stranger slowly turned, his glance following the officers, and the wretch they d r a g g e d between them. Thatevening, for the first time in her 1 ife, Mamie Taylor d i d not g o dowh to dinner.

"As you know, M. Stasulevitch, ed« itor of the EuropeanTMes'unger, was the delegate of the funeral committee seat to the German frontier to receive Turireoelt'a remains.

M. ilevitch told the oflieer that he did want him, but the officer replied that, whether hv. wanted him or not, such were his orders, so Stasulevitch had to submit to be saddled with the gendarme. The train with the body arrived 1n the evening. Stasulevitch asked the gendarme when it would xtart again for St. Petersburg, and was Muntly told that he, thugendarme, had b.uen further, iflstrueiM to detain the l.ody until Monday.

Itefor'o the gendarmes could carry out their plan, Stasulevitch found the priest of the village e"hureh and learned that what the gendarme oflieer had said was a lie.

J When the terrftorW laws of Mtchi^Ro were republished tn 1574, the comptterln * preface stated that 36 acts were missing, The titles of these act* were on record, trat the substance wssgone. It was thought probable by the compiler that the manuscripts were destroyed during the Britten occupation of Detroit in 1812. By sonar unknown means E. H. Batter, treasurer of Michigan, received a hint that there was a volume of old territorial laws In Detroit, and managed to secure possession of it. On reading the acta therein and comparing them with the titles of the missing acts, he found that all were included in tLe book. The volume is yellew-w*th age, and the laws are written wtth pen and ink. They cover a period from 1806 te 1800. Among them is the original charter of Detroit, approved Sept 18,1806. which provldea that the city government shall be vested in a mayor and two legislative chambers of three members each, who, to be eligible, must have paid their public taxes. Another act reduces the salaries of the territorial secretary, treasurer and atwas injured a short time ago by an explosion of "red fire" has since died.

"Aia'c we cleaning bouse earlier than usual this year?" said May Smith. '•Well, perhaps so,1' said her mother. "But if people ever expect to get through A thing, they must begin it in good time." •'Why are we taking up all the carpets?" said May. "To have the dust boatenout of them. to be sure," answered tier mother, "But why do you pack all tho dishes, and cups and saucers into a barrel?" persisted May, standing first on one loot and then on the other, as she took big round bites out of her ginger-cooky. "Cast year you set 'em ah in the other •loset!" "Oh, well," said Mrs. Smith a Kttle impatiently, "one can't whitewash the ceilings properly, with all the glass and china standing around!" May was a plump, bright-eyed, child of sijror seven, with yellow hair hanging oyer her forehead, red cheeks, and & dimple right in the center of the chin. "Mischievous May" t h e y called her sometimes, and I am_sprry to say that she had earned the title in a variety of ways. In fact she was such a little domestic nuisance that the Smith family had planned to keep her entirely in the dark as to their m o v i n g o n the first of May. "Nothing would induce her to go to school if she knew we wore moving," said Mrs. Smith. "And she would be everywhere at once, and such a little "Tiieddler;—I-shouldn't have any peaceof my life if May were at home. Robbie is a good, steady-going child, and can help me in all sorts of ways. And Katy is as useful and reliable as if she were nineteen instead of nine. But May is ajpei-fect little firebrand! She would have the caTin the tea-kettle, and the mouse trap in the music-box. She: would eat plum-cakelBnoiigh to make herself sick, and get under the wheels of-the—wagons, and be kicked by the horses, and have all sorts of dreadful things happen to her. So we'll keep -the whwle^thing a secret from her. And then we shall be safe!" 4$ "Why don't you send her to stay a week with Aunt Pauline?" said Mr. Smith. "She can go to school from there just as well as from-here!" "A capital idea," said Mrs. Smith. "I wonder I hadn't thought of it before!" So May was told that, as a gre, treat, she was to spend a week-^with Aunt Pauline, and wear herd5est crimson merino every dayf^if__sim wouldpromise to be very^oareful^of it! May liked-tfte idea ot a e h w g e . All littleigirt&uo, i believe,' rtud little boys ^aJao\ The crimson merino dress, too, was an inducement, and then she would not have to rock the baby's cradle every evening, for there were no little children nt Aunt Pauline's, only cousin Fred, who was a college student, and wore spectacles. Well, ever} tiling went off very nicely at first. May liked to be played -jvitli by cousin Fred, and to dress the cat ut> like a*baby, and to look at all the picture-books in tte big book-ease, But, " am sorry to say, she could n.ot quite ;ore'go her mischievous habits. She wanted to see if the eggs under the old Spanish lien were warni enough, so she put her hand under to feel, and the old nen flew off, with a prodigious cackling, bren king f ou r of the iragilo treasures. a man was .planting vegetable seeds May had el imbed up to pesip at t h e gold-fishes in the big glass globe on the parlor-table. She had been puking them with a stick to make them go faster around the walls of their crystal prison, when suddenly she lost her balance and tumbled, class globe, gold fishes, and all on to "the tloor! Fortunately, th« fdobe was not broken, and s i e refilled t with fresh water, and put the goldfishes in once more. But the poor creatures did not move any more. "I—I'm afraid they're dead," said May, with her finger in her mouth. "I suppose it kills gold-fishes not to breathe water all the time. Anyhow, it wasn't my fault!" BuUor all that. May felt guilty so that she- determined to go home, without waiting for Aunt Pauline to come in. So she ran and got her bonnet, put her little nightgown into her bag, and started for home as fast as she could. It was a much longer walk than she had any idea of. Old Mr. Parkinson had brought her in his wagon when she came but walking was quite a different thing. It was dark when she got home, except for a light from the new moon ana Bhe was tired, on, #& till o Q * ~ * * 9 J head ached and her, feet ached, and the little bag seemed as if it weighed* a thousand pounds! And the house( was dark and silent! "They can't have gone to bed already," said May to herself. "I only heard the factory-bell strike a fewr minutes ago." She stood on tiptoe to knock at the door, but nobody answered. All that she heard was a faint, dull echo, that seemed to repeat "Tap—tap—tap!" through the house, and then to be silent. "Mamma!" called out May. "Papa! Robbie! Kate! Oh, where are you all? Why don't you answer me?" But no«reply came to her. All was dark and silent. For, deaMr Hroa-^ee^ . g * * g g g the family had moved that day? An all the tenants oT* the house that remained were two bright eyed little mice running backward and forward in the kitchen, looking for something to eat*=aiid a black beetle on the_deserted pantry neartk. "It s come at last," said May, tragically clapping her hands together. "I'm punished for ull my sins."* The black man is coming to get mef sure enough." And she cowed down in a corner of the porch an,d wept and sobbed pitifully. Until at last something like footsteps seemed to come crackling over the dry boughs of the wood at the back -of the house. May stopped crying, but she sat up silently and listened. 4'Papa!" she cried, "it's papa!" So-itjgaSj__May's quick little ears had not deceived her. The SmithTTami^ ly had moved into their new house, down by Rivington's mill, and were ail sitting around the tea table*-when Mr. Smith recollected that he had left his silver watch hanging up by the window 4n-the-kitGhen. , "1 must go back to get i u " he said, M.

"I prickedr^my finger with cousin Fred's ^-fish-hook," confessed May, g down her bead. MAnd the inkstand tipped itself over uncle's sermon, and the goldfish all fell out on the floor and died. And I thought I would come home,—And it's too bad that you've all gone and moved without me / > • > And with all these sorrows heaped upon her soul, poor little May began to cry, " But she wao oooa-comfovted by Robbie and Kate, who had to show her all the pretty rooms iu the new house, and ine cunning white kitten which they had found in the back yard,' Ami her mother took her ou her lap and talked to her us she was undressing her that evening. And she pulled Aunt Pauline's tuberose buibs up by the roots to see if they were sprouting, and Aunt Pauline lost patience and called her a meddlesome child—and Uncle George forbade her to come into his study any more, after she had tipped the inkstand over one of his half written sprmons, and it took Fred half an hour to extract one of hie fishhooks from her finger one day when tie was in a great hurry. "It's your own fault, Miss. Mischief," said he sharply, when May wiggled and twisted and cried out with tho pain. "You hi»d no business to be meddling with my book of flies and tackle-box!

"Well, we wou'tmind that justnow," said Mrs. Smith,kindly, "What I wanted to say was this. When we moved to-day we left all the broken things and the useless things behind us in a heap in the garden. And that is what I want my little May to do also I want her to leave behind her all the selfish-, ness and all the disobedience, anji-ali the bad habits.

Last August a farmer in the vicinity hired a young man to work on the farm. He has live«l since then in the house of his employer, who noticed and often spoke of a singularly remarkable likeness between the new hand and his (the farmer's) wife. One day last week the young man was looking in the family bible register, when he was surprised to find the maiden name of the farmer's wife the same as his .own. Inquiries followed, which revoaled the fact that the two were indeed brother and sister, separated in their babyhood by the death pf both parents, and brought up, one in Ohio, the other in Virginia.

A'brief sii^rch i>f :hi?. yreat niuii';i life may not prove imliitercst'iig. U'endell Phillips was born in Boston on the £')'<h of November, 1811. Ills father, Mr. John Phillips, wa* • the first persoa etei(ted to the ofliee of Mayor of Boston, oversixry years since. The .-ion was sent to Harvard College when about V.) years old, where ho graduated in l^iil. and then entered the law school at Cambridge, of which. Judge Story had been for some y>-ar* the master spirit. In 'that seaooi ue remained two year;, anil he eon-, tinued bis studies "of the. iaw elsewhere as be was not admitted to practice till WJ4, when he was in b'i.V23i year. There was a bitter prO'Slavery sentiment in Boston at the time but the disfavor with which,Abolitionist* were treated did not daunt Wendell Phillips from joining thecause. It was in 1&J6, when he was. in bis 25th year, that be formally became one of the little band oi autv-3lave"ry agitators, This led to the loss of his promising prol'essional position. Th<^ AbolitiOT.i^trt held that the Constitution of the United States was a wicked compact, having for its purpose the malntenance of slavery and they refused asacnt,to it. Mr. Phillips accepted the logical consequences of bis adherence to their cause, and gave up his business in ISiW. The rirst of Mr. Phil lips' great <lAbolition speeches" was_made toward in the vicinity ciu-.e from the \ougheeh*uy .region, >vbire mining hamlets and a portion of the tnw;.s lying ou rhe'ow land.^huve been iuu ntlat e< l u Ld ha r. \ i r e 11o f* l-Alieg 1¾ fee the close ofTSST, at a meeting held a t Faiy-uil Hall for the purpose of giving expression to the sentiment oi the peoDle ia regard to the anti-slavery riot in Missouri which resulted in the death pf Rev. Elijah P. Loogav. In the crusade against slavery, hi3*name stands beside Garrison's. After the wsr Mr. Phillips turned his attention to what he regarded as other needed reforms. He was the greatest of all our pubjic lecturers in eloquence, pith and , point; His commanding presence, bis eagle eye and tine Roman face would have marked him out asywhere.—The temperance-Teforer ever found him a steady and able and most consistent supporter. He advocated the rights ofjfomen, a course that he followed legitlmate- ^ ^ - - 4 ^ ^ logically from his anti-slavery principles. All other causes that were worthy ol bis advocacy_£ ommanded Mr. Phillips' support. lectures on The "Life of DanieH>'Connell" and •'TheLost Arts" were repeated hundreds/of times. An admirable and touching trait in Mr. Phillips' character was his devotion to -his invalid wife, who had long been cord nei to her '__ bed by a nervous complaint ^ ATTACBUNG SUAXIM.

Foy went to Union City A few dftjs ago, and during the dav drank freely, getting very boUterous. iu this condition he became quite noisy, and paraded the streets threatening to shoot somebody.! His demonstrations were considered the vagaries ot a drunken man, and the officers contented themselves with attempts at quieting him, in which they were meaeur ably successful. At the time mentioned, however, he met young Shuler and a friend walking away from the postotfice, and immediately ilred upon them three times. One of the balls missed its murk; tho others took effect, one In the neck aud the other in the cheek, the nrst, U is feared, Inflicting a fatal wound. The pistol used was a SS caliber, the same that did the deadly work iu the Crouch tragedy. Immediately after firing, he Is reported to have exclaimed, l T v e shot the wrong man," when he turned and ran aw&y. i t is ascertained that he boarded an outgoing freight tralu almost immediately after and left'town, going easf.

Tom Look unusual pains with his toilet that night, aud he was a very handsome man. Hjs thick, glossy, brown hair, and long heavy beard, were subjected to a merciless brushing; and a magnificent black neck-tie embroidered with'white silk was arranged askillingly as possible. May, in a crimson merino, and her shining black hair arranged in a knot at tho back of her head, was "superb and indifferent. Around the fair throat was a tiny, collar of the softest lace fastened by a diamond star. . "May, this is my nephew, Torn Trevanion. Miss Vaughn, T o m .

The vote of X\w committee stood 7 to 5, the minority seeking to have appended to the bill a confirmation ot the claims of the homesteaders, canal company and pine land owners. The Ontonagon Jc B-Ule people are quite wetl content with the result. They care out little about the forfeiture c]aute,betog satisfied that their legal Claims against the United States caucot be aainsaid, and are sufficient to protect them in all their rights.

After a desperate resistance Siukat has been captured by Egyptian rebels. A correspondent »t Suakim thus graphically describes the butcberv: At last the heroic garrison at 8iukat has "been butchered.. For a lortnlgbt they hive been eating roots and tree leave*. It was an enfeebled baud, indeed, which made a sortie to die amidst the rebel horde. Tewflk Bey had h a r a n g u e d bis men, saying: By fighting they might save themselves, but by remaining they must die from hunger in a few days. Flifcht was impossible. The men thus animated With Tewflk Bay's spirit destroyed the military atoree. exploded the magazine, filled their pouches to the utmost with cartridges, rind issued forth, 600 strong, against the rebel A— Osman Digi^a*' hordes rushed to attack Tewnk Bey, and his men fuught nobly. For a long time they repulsed every attempt to break their ranks. Finally superior numbers prevailed, and with a tremendous rush the rebels burst through one of the sides of the Egypt Ian jBQuare. A general massacre ensued and not a soul escaped. According to the latest report oaly four sick men unable to take part In the eortle, the cadi of Slnkat, and 30 women were spared by the rebels. Before the sortie a rebel Bbeikn approached Sinkat and summoned Tewflk Bey to surrender, saying his life would be spared. The garrison answered, defiantly reviling the rebels. Dunug the sortie the women and children followed in the rear of soldiers. A large number of the rebels were killed. The rebels arc now massing in the vicinity of Suakim. The Sinkat contingent have joined the main body and an attack on Suakim is believed imminent ..__!_ FOR THE RELIEF OF TOKAR.

Tfc^ouUook isjjloamy Indeed, inTTjTOWS more so hourly* - AT LAWRBNCaBCRO, IND., the situation arrows hourly worae, and an appeal has been made to the outside world lor aid. More houses were lifted from their foundations. People are removing Uow,-&ec~ oud floors, abandoning goods because there is no blacfl to take them, and the current ie so swiit that boating is dangerous. A family was rescued from a s-cond story to-day where the water had reached all but four inches. MTR iita, an invalid old lady, was takeu from the upper window of her insecure homy ujid bound to her bed, taken over the beaviKg waters in a skiff to Newtown, the groans or the almost dying woman, as she was carried ou her bed through the crowd at the landing, eauslug many au eye to moisten, aud presented another phase of the terrible calamity which has smitten the town. CINCINNATI'S CALAMITY. Associated press dispatches of the 12th describe the situation in Cincinnati as follows: At 1 o'clock v. M. the water OS ieet 3K inches, almost, two feet higher than last year, and was still rising from half au inch to an inch an hour. To add to other horrors a water famine is threatened; us-nl as economically a*, possible, »he supply in the reservoir will only last five days, and in case of any unforseen event even this would fall. The situation is more gloomy thau ever. An appeal for aid has been issued, not for the sufferers in the city, but for those in adjacent places. AT NEWPORT, KY., Abe condition of things growB worse; the great fears about the damage to public buildings is be-- fog realized. A fine residence built last year which cost $10,000 toppledover and is a com plete mass of ruins. Fortunately the family had removed before the crash. Many more buildings are in danger and it is feared may bring calamities of the worst nature. Many people in houses are unable to get away and must be lost if the houses fall. AT riTTSnURG the rivers arc swelling again at the rate of twe inches an hour, with ISfeet 3 inches on Monongahela marks and 19 feet on the Allegheny marks. Dispatches from points above report continued rains and water rising, and people living in bottom lands are filled with apprehensions of another flood. Many have not yet recovered from the late deluge, and the discouraging outlook tends to increase the uncomfortable feeling. * With 19 feet of* water now submerging the lower districts of the two cities it is quite probable the''situation of affairs among sufferers in Allegheny is worse, if possible than any day since the flood, and numerous additional cases of, destitution are reported. Many of the victims in addition to havingbeen systematically plundered by the waters were thrown, out ot employment by worlcshopsbelng-de'vastated, and wider any circumstances .this fact alone is productive of more or less want among the—poorer classes. At least &500 people are supplied with food each day. AT POMEROT, O., the waterpreached its highest point at noon, being seven inches higher than any previous flood when it begad to gradually recede. Nine teuths of the buildIntrs In the town a^e still in the water una about 150 were moved from their foundations of which one-sixth floated down the river. No lives have been lost, but the damage to property is immense and cannot be adequately estimated, the extent of the rise beiug unprecedented, aud-et*H«nunleation with points above belug cut off. The peop'e were not prepared for the last tltrht feet of water which came. Only one store ia,..the tow.n escaped and many merchants who had removed their goods they thought out of danger were uuable to save them from the water. AT LAWRENCEBUKO, IND., no coal is to be got, and there is no coal pM in the city. Gas is eutirely shut out, and there is no telegraph, no telephone, no railroad, and TOT-boat couuection to the city. Individual which will be aeen when the vaat waste pf waters shall have fallen to the Proper , cfaanneh The destruction of property in Glnclnnotl la simply enormous, while the reportaof the con,- itlon of pther inundated districts reveals de- 61 ruction unparalleled in the history of the country. The relief work goes on systematically and everything possible is bclnn done to relieve tbe wants of the destitute While a clear sky and cold weather briuga relief to those who Lave homes, and cheered by the warmth of a glowing fire, to thousands who are huddled on housetops, or iu upper stories of tenement rmuaealu the cities, the cold wave is an unwelcome vltitor. VAVORiHLE REPORTS continued tocome from the immediate country. The water la gradually receding, revealing a scene of devastation bevotid the power of words to describe. Everything possible is being done for the unfortunates at every place. Relief ooats laden with tons of supplies are constantly kept busy, but the committee report the supply, generous as it is, all too small, m C U I I T I E . MURDERED FOR MONEY. j J. J,. Wilson, an agedrcsldent of the village of Wlnnetka, near Chicago, and his Invalid wife, were found dead In their cottage the other morntng. The discovery was made by a young woman who had been in the habit of calling upou Mrs Wilson almost dally and attending to her wants. The body of Mr. Wilson was found on the first floor, his head and body showing a number of cuts, which had evidently, been aomlnlstered by a sword belonging to a son of the dead man, aud »ble:i had been hanging up In the house. Visiting the room up stairs, the Invalid wife was fouud lying on the bed dead, with several stabs in her body, wbileOJie position of the remains showed that, weak as she was, she had made frantic efforts to protect herself from the murderous stabs of die assassin, blood being Spattered on the four walls. The motive of the tnurdor appears to have been one of robbery pureiy. The only clue is the fact that Mr. Wilson stated the evening before that be had a gentleman guest whom he was entertaining, but who has since disappeared. Mr. Wilson was a man of considerable wealth and always kept a large sum about his premises, doing his banking business wlth-a&rm in the city. The house show s evidence of having been rifled. D r o w n e d . Two threfvstory brick buildings In the flooded district in Cincinnati occupied by 35 tenants and run by Robert Kyle and George Oyster as boarding houses, were heard to crack early the other morning. Just before four o'clock the coraer building fell with a terrible crash and 10 persons were buried in the ruins or drowned. The occupants of the front portion had given the alarm, and before the real cause could be ascertained the fire alarm sounded. Firemen, in aonjunction with police, used superhuman efforts in rescuing the HvlDg and dead. The following are known to have been Killed,cither by falling timbers or drowning: Jobn W. Kyle, sou of the proprietor; Mary E. Coulter, Maud Ellis. James OgdeD, Barney Winker, Mrs. Winkler, ThomasBurke, Mrs Lena Burke and her two rhlldren, William and Louis Birke, making 10 lives so far known to be lost. C O N O B h S S * FEBRUARY 1 1 .

In the case in pint, do your level best to make the gal think you don't set much store bv her. Reuben Brown was in love with black eyed Khtie Perkins—there is no doubt about it. Kiltie" was the prettiest and at the same time tho most coquettish girl in Swanto, and, woman like, was-pi^ying "fast and loose" with poor Reuben. Reuben had never opealy avowed his affection, though it was rapidly beeom* ihg^-soulfully intense".when, after a pariieularly exasperating interview -wit-b the fair Kitlie, he resolved to lay bare his heart to his old Uncle Joshua, and seek the latter's advice. Uncle Joshua .was, infact, his nearest relative, and lived only a-sJiort._distancfiJ_ft'1 from where Reuben was employed. ' Reuben had done many little kinduess- .es lor the old man—who, in return, felt almost a father's interest in his welfare anil happiness; so Reuben felt, when he went to consult him -concerning his tendresse, that his advice would,-though coming froni one who might almost be supposed to have forgotten all about the gentle passion, be sincere and . thoughtful. With this conclusion, Reuben, with a very "heart h u n g r y " feeling—the immediate result of the above mentioned interview with Kittie—wended his "way slowly up lo the little red house where the old man lived. The last faint traces of the sun's glory were rapidly fading away in the horizon, the bright sturs were just commencing to twinkle merrily, aud all the air held " a solemn stillness," as if waiting for night to drawmore closely "her sable mantle." s At such times, if ever, tho humau thoughts Don't let on how much took you be with heart turns to of love; and Reuben's, already turned in that direction, was actually lilled to .overllowiug with tho gentle emoi ion. Could he have done so. lie would, without doubt, have woven the most "woeful ballads" to the fair Kittie'a eyebrows—but he was no poet, so he simply year ned. As Reuben came up to the house he found Uncle Josh, as he usually called him, seated, on the stoop. His chair was tilted back; his venerable head,' fringed with gray and seantv lucks, was bared to the evening breeze; and, like the ill-fated skipper of the Hesperus,' her, and don't on no account say nothin' about love, leastwise, not at present, for the minute ver do, ez the lawyers say, you weaken yer caie. You don't want to show yei hand till yer dead sure you've won the game. You don't want to complicate yerself, so to speak, till yer sartin' the gal loves ye. El she don't love ye, ye'd.better Uo in yer grave than marry her, and if she does, she'll let yer know afore very long— sure ez I'm settin' here." So saying, the old man wiped his forehead with the big. rod handkerchief, relighted his pipe, pushed down the ruing tobacco with his horny thumb and relapsed into silence. From what humble sources words of wisdom sometimes spring! Much comforted, Reuben sauntered slowly homeward, his pathway lighted by the bright summer morn which had just come over the hill, filling the little valley with its f mellow light. His heart was much lighter than when he trod that path before, for he had unburdened it, and he felt that Uuele Josh was right. So the very next evening ho took HY £UIN K. REXFOKl).

" So, leani n g b a c k in his chair again, he listened - w h i l e Reuben told tho "old, old story" •—how the feeling had' gradually come upon him that he loved Kittie with an all-absorbing passion (or-words to that effect); how'be basked in the miushine , of her smiles one day, and was by her coldness plunged into the "very "apathy of despair" the next; how he was beset, with fears that she liked Bill Simpson better than she did him; ~huw he was afraid, il he asked her, that she <vould say no—that he was sure if she did, it "would kill him, etc , etc. where he had been for such a long time. He answered, "Nowhere to speilk of;" and *,hen she smiled so sweetly, and looked at him with such gentle reproach that he was almost tt..mp:jd to seize her in his arms and declare his love then and there, but he recalled Uncle Josh's advice in time and-temporized. Kiltie could, not stand it long, bowever and before another moon had come ami gone Reuben was her accepted lover. ~"~ The days had begun to lengthen a little w h e n trrey we re m a < ic one; and Uncle Josh hitched up the old mare, a green purg, used only for state occasions, and drove down Lo tho little hou^e, which Reuben had bought, to witness the interesting ceremony.

"While with Robinson's circus," said Mr. Neylan, the celebrated lion tamer, •'I became acquainted with Bill Reynolds, the well-known^ l;on performer, and became a fast favorite with him. He was sick quite often, which made it necessary to" withdraw that feature" of the entertainment. • "I was in the habit of playing with the lions outside the cage, uud one day I asked the keeper who had charge of] tho cage if he would 'ot rue go inside. Tie laughed at me,and said that I would be glad to.come out mighty" quick. 1 looked about for a cowhide, and being unable, to find one, seized upon a broom handle, and started ixn—There were; three, animals together in the cage, the famous lion Old ^rince, the pet'lioness Jennie, and a beautiful tiger. I was about sixteen years of age at the time, and very strong. "The moment 1 entered, the animals regarded me as an intruder, and Old Prince began to look warlike. I beat him vigorously with the broom handle, and before 1 left the cage he was humbly submissive, and with the other animals, would promptly do my bidding. 1 told the manager that I had found a man to take Reynold's place^. and would produce him that night. —"Evening came, the cage was drawn into the ring, and at tho appointed time I appeared, greatly to the surprise and bewilderment of the maofger.

Mr. George Conklin, who has won a name as a very successful trainer of animals, and particularly of elephants, not.long ago tame to the conclusion that it would be possible to teach an elephant to read the commands given by a keeper, instead of merely understanding a spoken direction. He chose from out of the large herd belonging to Cole's Circus a fifteenyear- old elephant—Eajah. He then procured a blackboard, a couple of feet long and only a few inches wide, on which to write his orderjs to his pupil. Of course Mr. Conklin did not in the beginning attempt to teach Rajah the alphabet. His theory \Vas that the elephant would recognize the general look of a whole short word when written. He brought Rajah into the ring once each day, and taking the word "March!" with which'"Rajah was entirely familiar when it was called out, Mr. Conklin slowly printed it before his eyes, allowing the snimal to watch him and the writing. As soon as it was finished he laid nis chalk .down and shouted, "March !" This was repeated. Very soon Rajah of his own accord would start off around the ring as soon as the word "March"' had grown into shape beneath Mr. .Ci^nklin's tingersi He had learned the look of that word perfectly. The keeper then passed on to "Stop," and the big brain of the beast quickly grappled with the crooked V , S" and what came after it. Rajah no_w reads about a..dozen dif-< ferent words, and understands their meaning; nor is he ever cmfused' upon any of them.

On one occasion, soon after the close of a matinee performance given—at Brockton, Massachusetts, by Mr. Forepaugh's circus troup, a one-story frame building near the tents caught tire, atd in a few moments the entire building was enveloped in flames.

While the first outcasts robbed and murdered and begged from necessity, their descendants to-day do so in order to fulfil what they consider to be a social obligation. With the blindness of the heroes of Greek tragedy, they, in a> early period, bound themselves irrevocably to the r fate by adopting distinctions of caste similar to and Inexorable as those which had wrought their wretchedness. There are castes even amosg the outcasts. Pariahs are, in consequence, as jealous of their im~ ptmiy-a* Brahmans are of their purity, The privileges and restrictions of their own making are more serious impediments in the way of their improvement than enmity of the "twice-born," or Hindu aristocracy. Their vital principle of belief is that the most unpardonable of all offeases is for an outcast to desert the tribe in which he ia born, or abandon the profession of his fathers. In their social starvation, they themselves reject the meat and drink that could save them. Intermarriages are as strictly avoided by professional criminals and vagrahTs as if the laws of Manu bad been made for them. A Hi ldu Thug, in the palmy days of Thuggee, would have died rather than marr, one of his daughters or sisters to a brother murderer who professed the creed of Mohammed. The Mangs, whose poverty and squalor are unrivaled, would indignantly refuse s Brahman who might offer himself in marriage.

'TMs no sin for a-man to labor in his vocation!" When a Thug strangler was asked whether he never fell remorse after killing innocent people, he answered in perfect good faith, "Does any man feel eompunctioo in following his trade, and.are hot all our trades assigned us by Frovid Conscientious scruples might ji expected of a spider feast in its nets, or of atigelf devouring its human victims^<Nor are the pariah's feeiings^oju-rbe subject merely negative. The most confirmed criminal,and the most good-for nothing vagabond alike take real pride in their w'.ckedness and vi'eness. Men of the caste of Cal aris, when interrogated as to their trade, with thorough t,elf satisfaction proclaim themselves robbers. The greatest compliment which a Thug could receive was praise of his skill as single-handed strangler. The very word Thug signifies deceiver. Phansigar, Ari Tnlucar, Tanti Callern, Warlu Wahudiu, as strang l e s have heen called iu different parts of India, refer to their u»o of a nooso. Thieves and beggars, like the Artful Dodger would sc»rn all other but their own employments. This aistorred conception of duty cannot be wondered at, since even the Bhagavrra=tjitirr a book .which contains the highest moral wh*- ilom of the Hindus, teaches that it is "Better to do the duty of one's caste, Though bad-aadt ill performed and fraught with lb) Than undei take th^busiuesa of another, Howtver good it he." indeed, so much stress is laid upon this doctrine that no occasion is lost of impressing its necessitj upon the people, ••Verily," il is asserted in the dm ma of j^Sakuntala, "the occupation in which a man is born, though it be in bad repute, must^not be abandoned." At least h r this on^respect outcasts are in thorough accord wi^h the men who despise them. x. ^ :— Johnny'B E e s a y .

"The best time to lions," said Mr. Neylan, are cubs eight to ten months old. My practice was to devote an hour a day in the training, always exercising them oa empty stomachs, and feeding Jhem immediately afterward. If the animal is gentle and submissive, he should be treated kindly; but if )ie is inclined to be stubborn and ugly, then you must obtain tho mastery by a vigorous use of the cowhide. They are inclined to be treacnerous even when most frolicsome and gentle, and it can be shown that the majority of lion performers wfco havo been killed have allowed their pets too much liberty. •.•The place to use the cowhide is over the faci and eyes, to blind and confuse tbem. It mu»t not be thought for an instant that one can look them steadily in the eye and thus "disarm them. The lion does become somewhat blinded by a steady gaze, but the moment he lowers his head ai'.d gives' it an omnious shake, then look for danger, and the more promptly the lash is'applied the bett-r. • T h e tiger is more inclined to ,be t •« amorous than the lion, and it is more diffic'ilt to train one. 1 have trained A ia ic.

When the boy was thirteen years of age his father die i. The earnest ambition of the widow was to educate her son lor the ministry. The small fortune which had been lefc by the husband was used freely in educating the promising son. After a few years at school the ambition of the youth turned iromthe course laid by his parents air4 ho chose to study for the legal profession.

V\ h^n voung ,-Evarts first ipel her at the ca, tivating age of si\- yieen, she was a young lady of rare beauty. The school-boy fell head and «ars in love, and before he loft Jiis home in the East they pledged themselves to each other ami he pioni'sed to return as soon as his fortune was made. At the home and wan ler'mg through the wooded vaies surrounding the little town of Windsor, Vt., plans for the aft'T life of the young couple were tallied over. Their chief amb tion was to settle down to <,uiet life on the screen hills of Vermont, surrounded by waving fields of g r a n and herds of browsing cattle.

Sure enough, there lay her purchase.— N. Y. TritAtw the young, these did not fall short of consummation in a'ter life. In New i ork Evarts soon made a rfbble name.

Young Evarts had made ffttfrfv friends during his early acquaintance with Ni-w York society. The ' young man of line form and piercing eye was po'nted out at many social gatherings which he attended as a Hsing man of the day. His seciety was sought after and he became courted and received flattering attentions from the gentler sex. Throughout all tiie gayety of life in the great in-t opolis, however.

He was dining in a restaurant aud saw at another tabic a couple of young, pretty and well-known actresses. He wanted to send them glasses of the champagne he'was drinking, but hesitated about doing it, as he was afraid several society ladies of his acquaintance, who were dining there also, might observe the transaction. Finally he evolved a plan. He directed hix-w*itcr-to take the bottle out of the room and give it to the actresses' waiter to take to them and "pour a couple of glasses of wine. The waiter went about the errand and the wine reached thctwo actresses aU right. But after a couple of glasses had been poured their blockhead of a waiter put the bottle in thf cooler, and instead of taking it out of the room before returning it to the gentleman. _br.oiight it directly across the dining-room and put it down beside tha embarrassed gallant, while a percfepti* ble titter arose from those who observed ] the situation.—Boston Po*i.

Entered at the Po»tofflce a* *d class matter, IT is indeed gratifying to notice the promptness with whioh citizens of lilies, and villages throughout the land have responded to the appeals for aid from the flooded district. All classes, rich and poor alike, have united in the work of aiding the sufferers, the "widow's mite" being given as cheerfully, and received aa gratefully as the rich man's thousands. The suffering and destitution of the unfortunates havo appealed to the great heart of the people, and in the work of relieving the distressed, all can personally testify to the scriptural truth that "it is more blessed to give than to receive.1 ' 8AYH an oxchaagf has done it. He walked into the House of Commons last Monday and administered the oath of membership unto himself- The Speaker tojd him ho had not "compHedwith the rules, and ordered him to withdraw until tho house had •onsidered his act. By a vote of neaf^ two to one-it was decided that he be not permitted to'take the oath, and tbat he be excluded from the precincts of tho house. In the course of the debate "LaboucHere, the speoial champion of Bradlausrh, expressed his contempt for any form of oath, which ho declared to be "superstitknns incantation and sanctimonious" sophistry."

Judge Poland is an able and < aperienctd jurist; and he evidently does not believe that his bill fails within tho prohibition of the constitution. T m i Senate haying receded from its disagreement witk the House on the bill for the relief of the Greely colony, thus passing the appropriation, the n a r y department has promptly announced its plan. Two vessels are to be prepared at once. They are to reach Upernavik in Greenland by May 15, and sail north from there al the earliest possible date.

T H E "nine days1 wonder1' .attending the marriage of Fred. Douglass had scarcely subsided, .ere the ' colored gossips of the national capital were given ajiew morsel to roll under the tongue in the announcement that the former housekeeper of Mr. Douglass had brought suit against him for $3,000 for services rendered while serving in that capacity. Several reasons are assigned for the suit being brought, the principal one These all Uve by fees, and they must have business it they have to" t r u m p it up. in c o n s e q u e n t there is a degree -ofHtHshonesty and misadministratiou in our inferior courts but little suspected by the generality of the people. In at least one town of many counties m tho state there-is a ring composed of arresting and committing officers organized for business and fees. The alert arresting officer meets a needy looking stranger out of money, arrests him on a chargo of vagrancy* and takes him beluantity of land equal to thirtv thousand acr«js for each Senator and Representative in Congress. The income arising from the proceeds of the sales of these lauds was to be devoted to tho teaching of "such branches of learning as are related to agriculture and.tne mechanic arts, in such manner as the Legislatures of the States may respectively prescribe, in order to promote the liberal ami practical education of the industrial classes in several pursuits and professions in life." Within live year* of the passage of this act twenty-two States had established colleges of agriculture and the mechanic arts in -accordance with its provisions; and in 1878 every State, exeopliug Colorado vud Florida, had organized these colleges. Ninemillion six hundred thousand acres werer thus donated. New York received slightly .more than one-tenth of t,he a x ouut, which, was employed iu the en dowmeut of Cornell University. Massachusetts divided its share between the agricultural college at Amherst and the Institute-- of Tecnnology at Boston. •Maine, ""afidthe large i m i p r t t y of the States, devoted their proportions to the support of colleges of agriculture. The total amount, ti.eu, by which the general government has aided the several States iu education, consists of the gift of one hundred and twenty-rive thousand square miles of territory, or about ono-ttinieth part of the entire " f t ' j ^T\<\] i<r>n>nin, ^inil nf tli^grfr, pf iy»pT ly thirty millions of dollars. The value realized by the sale of this large.quantity of land it is almost impossible to estimate. In some of the newer States much of it yet remains unsold. In some States it was, upon its surrender by the general government, placed in the market, and it commanded prices ridiculously small. In Iowa and Wisconsin tho minimum price wtis $1/25 per acre.

Perhaps tbe seat of justice is not more than a dav's journey for the round trip, but the officer is sure to charge two days for his services and altogether gets nearly $25 for his per diem aud expenses, and this ono officer never delivers lo the prison more thau one man at a time. If ho has two men under sentence a t o n e time he leaves one with the sheriff and goes with one prisoner at a time. The justice in */his ring has his particular part to perform. A common drunkard, a curse to himself and his family, is brought-up. He has been arrested aud found guilty of drunkenness many times before. Now the justice has the power to sentence to Ionia, to Detroit or to the county jiit. If tho county or city where the ring is site, uated has an arrangement to board prisoners at Detroit, and Detroit is farill er away tftan Ionia and therefore affords a more profitable trip to the ofhoer, the justice will accommodate the ^jflicer in his sentence with a trip to De^oit. Instances are known where prisoners have been carried right by the Ioida prison to Detroit, 100 miles further, and tiiis notwithstanding tho justice knew the prisoner would cost bis city board every day he was conlined at. DeiroifT besides tho expenses expenses would be borueJiy the state and by sales made in this period' ra>re than a million three hundred thousand dollars were realized.

' If the seventynine millions of acres donated by the United States for education were sold at the ratc.of three" dollars an acre"—"a low estimate—an amount of not le^s than two hundred and thirty-seven mi lions of dollars would thence accrue as a permanent fund for the support of tho common schools, the cj, lieges and the universities.

While tramping about through a particularly malarial portion of the swamp, , a middle aged man suddenly came into view, carrying a muzzle loading shotgun^ and completely loaded down with g a m * of t h e liuest description. Najunal curiosity, tiside from tho involuntary envy that instinctively arose, prompted t h e writer to enter into conversation with the man, with the followiug result: "You've had fine success, where did you get all that game?*1 ".Right hero, in t i e s w a m p .

"The Yankees couldn't live througn the winter without dr^d-apple pies and pumpkin pies. In theAfall they pared the apples, cut t h e m j i n t o quarters, .strung them on long, stout airings with the aid of a darning-needle, and deco- „ rated the kitchen ceiling whh festoons of the fruit. In winter, when the housekeeper wanted to make a batch or" pies, she cut off a varti or two of this drapery. S O I M small Vankee several years ago invented* machine to dry any fruit or Vegetable by wholesale. Thev were 'named evaporators, and were tirst used -> in New York and New Jersey, and their principal use is now in those .States. ^Southern and Western farmers, however, are beginning to understand the •advantages of using them. There are "proba'lv scores of evaporators manufactured. Some may be put into any •outhouse that is two stories hi^h, while others require a separate building for the purpose. Individual hi: iners usually ~ find room in some shed or 'lean-to/ to avoid expenditure in building for the purpose. The space require I is only twelve or fifteen feet square of flooring o r even less than that. " The var ous k i n d i o i evaporators," the dealer continued, *'are alike in this: A t th© bottom is a furnace ;©r-eeal-or for wood, a,nd over the furnace is a high,'narrow inclosed superstructure,* wh ch looks like a fat wood n chimney sticking out through-tho roof. Iu4thV *of this chimney the evaporat on is carrieflon by very different processes in different machines, ^oraeof the m i- *chines may be ta,ken down and put up again with ease. The-e were made to be rented to farmers at a lew do Lars-a- •day. Most of the evaporators are tall * enough to run op through the roof of the building. A popular machine has ;*t t h e t o p of the structure and inside of i t * wheel, and at£..e i.ottoni anoth r ^wheel. Around these wheels-pass end. less chains, carrying at intervals of a few inches broad trays or ra ks on ••which the green fruit is p'accd. As the. —trays revolve they—remain horizontal.

DEAR S I R - P e r m i t me, with a soldier's frankness, to thank you personally for the handsome compliment bestowed "In the general orders yesterday, which are reported in the journals of the day. To me it was a surprise and a most agreeable one. I had supposed that the actual date of my retirement would form a short paragraph in tbe-coramon series of special orders of the war department, but as the honored executive of our country has made it an occasion for hi? own hand to pay a tribute of respect and aflection to aflr-6fflc«r pawing from the active stage of life to one o! ease and rest. I can only say I feel Highly honored and congratulate myself in thus rounding out my record of service in a mannei most gratifying to my family and friends. Not only this, but 1 feel sure that when the orders of yesterday are read on parade of regiments and garrisons of the United 8tttes many a young hero will tighten his belt and resolve anew to be brave and true to the starry banner which we of our day have carried safely through one epoch-of danger, but which may yet be subject to other trials which will demand similar sacrifices, equal fidelity and courage and a large measure of intelligence.

"Under the rule it goes into the petition box," said Mr. Carlisle, and into the petition box it went. Upon ex» mi nation it proved to be 10 pages of closely written legal cap paper signed t>y A. C. Maxwell of Bay City and setting forth that Hatch was elected to Congress through the grossest fraud and corruption, and requesting that Hatch be asked to retire afin Mr. Maxwell to step into his seat. The petition goes Into details and-alleges that paid agents weut about thffdifftrent couutieB corrupting voters, tha* Gen. Alger's lumbermen were forced to vote for Hatch through intimidation, etc. It also says that over ¢20,- 000 were collected through • a government official and by the aid of Jay Hubbell thrown Into the dl6trictand brought about the desired result. Maxwell's charges wind up with details of a conversation which took place by telephone between Mr. Hatch and Mr. Supe of Buy City. -the result of whieh ooDVfreatioD was that 100 able-bodiedI.Democratic voters were bought through a third party for $50, Hatch's check being given for tha a'mount on the spot. This conversation is related word for wore, although Hatch was at one end of the telephone and Supe at the other and their places of business some blctoks apart. Maxwell gives as an excuse for nonfiling hfs notice iiHlie time specih\d bylaw that he was ill just then for a short time,' but does not say what his condition has been since. Michigan members, Democrats and Republ<can, made great sport of the petition and all agree that while it may have oteu sent heretfi all scrtousnesB it was a very imbtcile movement.

U n p r e c e d e n t e d L o s s ot Life a n d P r o p e r t y . The storm which swept over northern Georgia the o*her day was productive of great loss of life and propeity. For several days the rains had been uninterrupted, causing a rapid rise in the rivers. The Cossauiattic aed Ellijay Rivers overflowed their banks and swept away dwellings in several towns along their course. The Uostauaula aud Coosa at Rome began rising at the rate of thirteen inches ar hour, and rose twenty-seven feet. In the afternoon there wai a renewal of the storms, when the flood gates of heaven seemed to be opened, accom panied by a cyclone. Signs and everything that could be attacked went flying in all direc tlons. Some bouses were upturned and llylug timbers carried death and destruction in their wake. Reports from Walker, Pauldlng,Chattanooga and other counties are freighted with disaster. In East Rome toe residence of VV. S. Crane was completely demolished. One thousend residences in that ccunty were similarly demolished. In Cave Spring greater los* of life is reported. Among others Mr. Glllard and his son were killed by the falling beams of a house from which they were attempting to escape. Two Negroes also perished. Mrs. Hoke was fatally injured. The family of Mr. Ford, five persons iu all,were seriously injured, to what extent is. not stated. A most terrible tale comes from* Jasper, Pickens county. A large number Of 'children were in schobTwhen the teacher saw the portendirg clouds. He dismissed the scholars aud sent them home. On the way they were overtaken by the storm, when they huddled together in a vacant building.

Houses and trees were blown down, and so great was the force of the wind that the dead bodies df men and women were found several rods from the places where their houses had been. All through this section of the state the violence of the storm was terrible, and in many places a number of deaths ere reported, but the worst of the storm was experienced In Rockingham.

Additional details of the terrible work wrought by the tornado, continues*to be receivea- freui various pasts of the State. From these reports it is estimated that rot less than 100 persons were killed and a much larger number seriously injured. In the neighborhood of Ellenton, on the Pert Royal & Augusta Railway, ail the bouses on several large plantations were demolished and six Negroes killed. The d^pot at Jackson's Station was k'Yelttl. The 6tore and dwelling of J. C. Hankirson was destroyed—The-fauiHy—escaped with eeri us injuries. Tom Walters, colored, was blown 300 yards aei killed, his body being terribly mangled. All the doors anil windows of Larkius Lodsou's residence were blown out and hlsbeddii g blown Into the tire place and burned up. TuedaruFg-to tlmb.-r in that neighborhood is ir.calculable. The tornado seems to have vented its fury to a greater or less degree throughout the entire slate. Thousands of acres of forests were -frWT-pt-awav like chaff. Railroad cars loaded with freight, were lifted from the trn.cks,hurled hundred ol yards and wrecked. Many in6tauces are reported where parents and children were lifted from their homes by the storm, carried high in the air and lauded many yards away, IN THE SMALL SI^ACE "" of 1hree miles in Pickens atfd Ch ties, Georgia, wounded. inaxecedeste<L_ national :ounw persons, killed and 40 OKTBt CAROLINA the number of lives lost is about 50, with au al number wout.ded.

A BDTCBEH AKHKST8S Pinkerton's Agency has caused the arrest of Nell McKaigue, a young butcher of Winnetka, near Chicago, for the supposed murder of the aged Wilson couple at that place recently. After the discovery of the murder McKaigue Bald Wilson the night before the murder purchased meat In his shop, and remarked that he had a visitor whom he was entertalniug. De tectives find that MeKaiguc's note for $000, which, together with ami tin>raudumbook kept by Wilson, is missing. McKaigue as»<rts his iunoceuee. McKaigue was taken before the grand jury, an.d ou uMiiuouy offered was indicted for the Wilson i mrder. Hois now in jail. The evldeuee agaiuat McKaigue la purely of a circumstantial nature, but apparently very strong and criminating. Threw buttons'fouud on the floor of the "Wilson residence covered with blood, and which had evidently been wrenched from the murderer's ve«t, duriug the terrible fight with the old man, were produced as was also McKalgue's vest. The' buttons were of peculiar design, and one of them had been torn from Its fastening with such force that it was broken and the center part, which was held by thread, was broken out. The button was compared with those on McKaigue'a vest and corresponded exactly. Then the broken button was placed over the core of the button retained on the vest, and it fitted exactly. A number of other apparently criminating circumstances were adduced, and the feeling now is the great murder mystery will be unraveled. A revolver belonging to McKaigue has been found, and the t»obullets taken from VTilson'3 body fit the chambers of the revolver. McKaigue is unable to account for hi* whereabouts ou the night of the murder. The prisoner, notwithstanding all these disclosures, takes the matter very cooly, an 1 persists lu asserting his innocence. F K O l l A L L O V E R T H E W O R L D .

At six years of age he was the little Due de Bordeaux* g i m d a o n of Charles X., and the hope* and expectations of France were iixed upon him. Like many other robust and easy-tempered children, he considered lessons a terrible hardship, ami particularly disliked writing.

Hut the child w a s • • Berry, a^ked pardon in such engaging tones, and made such good resolutions for future copies that the writing-master could not look grave for long, together, and perhaps his royal pupil took advantage of him. One morning, however, the child's playfulness failed to rouse him from a settled melancholy; there were even teal's in the dM man's eyes, and* though 10 little Due de Hordeaux asked over and over again what ailed him, he could obtain no answer. After lessons, however, a servant told **Ufctloy that, his tutor was responsible for u debt of one thousand francs incurred by his son, and saw uo means of obtaining the money. When the royal family were assembled a* the noon-day breakfast, the little Due said in his most coaxing tone: "Grandfather, if 1 write very we'l for a whole week, will you give me something?"

A noble lady of St. Petersburg had he n imprudent enough to converse with a foreigner on the institutions of her country, and comment severely on some of the most galling evils of its government. Retiring from the ball where she had committed this indiscretion, instead of being driven home, she found herself ?et down at the door of Hie Bureau of Secret Police. Being ushered into the othYial presence, she was summarily infuiyned that she was condemned to exile in Siberia, and.that she would be taken there without delay. Without beingallowed an interview with a single friemT, or even an opportunity of exchanging her gay costume for a'more suitable travellag dress, she was hurried into another vehicle and Jr.ven Oil" to her destination in the inhospitable wilds of Russia's penal settlements. The carriage in which -she was now placed was kept entirely closed, and the allicer who accompanied her, while he prevented communication with any one without, resolutely declined all conversation with her. The only-alleviation to the monotony and protracted suffering of hurrying along in a close carriage, abandoned to her own melancholy thoughts, was the stopping at certain stages', where the horses ami guard were changed, and where she was allowed to light a few minutes (after being blindfolded) and enter a.rude wooden building, or post-house In one of these, at the end of the first day's journey, she was allowed a few hours' repose on a rough truckle-bed. In the same* way the unhappy lady was hurried on^ during a second and third day, with an ever-widening distance, as she believed, from friends and hope and all that made life supportable. It struck her, however, as she grew more calm, that there was a remarka* ble similarity between the various posthouses at which they stopped, and blindfolded as she was, she contrived to secrete a ribbon torn from her dress in a crevice of the wood during one of these stoppages. Hope revived in her breast on discovering, at the next stoppage, that'they had come'hack to the same post-house: and pursuing her observa- • •j'tkuifti-she aTlength satisfied herself that deaths in t h g ~ ^ K ' waVbeing driven all the time between two .stations.

A Cold l>ay for Snakes. A hunter, while wandering around the foot of a mountain in Indiana County, l a , , was overtaken by darkness. Coming to a sheltered place he prepared to camjjjor the night. In searching for wood he found burted under a pile of leaves a lot ofStfeks, or what appeared to be long pegs sharpened at one end. These he supposed had beenT^dden there by a party of railroad engineers who had gone over the ground not loi]g before. After starting a tire beside a big log he drove several of these pegs around in front of it, on which to hang a blanket to keep the cutting wind off his back. He-was scarcely through with his lunch when he noticed one of the pegs, which was about three feet highf -beg4n-talop over to one side and then straighten up again. Then a twinkle of ligEt, like a tiny flash of lightning, would emanate Supposing that his lunch had affected his sight, he went to sleep only to be awakened by the gum blanket falling on him— lieklbg_up to lnvestigarsrhe; found half a dozen big snakes trying to" jet their frozen tails out of the holes he aad driven them into, supposing them » be surveyors' pegs.—Exdiangc. - • - - • • —A minister who was recently interviewed on the subject of marriage fees, laid that, as a rule, wealthy bridegrooms did not pay any better than ;hose in moderate circumstances.

Luke Phlpps, the Detroit wife murderer, who subsequently broke jail at Sandwich, Canada, where he was confined for his crime, was arrested atPuUman,Ill.,onthel9th of February. After his escape from Windsor jail he remained coucealed In Detroit some days, and he and another fugitive started to walk to Chicago. They were throe weeks traversing the distance, some 385 miles, and the journey was replete with hardship and vicissitudes. They 6lept iu old barns and In school-houses, and were three titles arrested on suspicion of being hard characters. ArriviDg in Chicago PijippB made for Pullman, and obtained work in the car shops. Iu Detroit he was engaged as a bar-tender iu Armstrong's hall, and in a few days he obtained a position in a billiard hall a£ Fulhpan.

On the ground that Tfe"is~au Amcitcan cltazeu and not .a sul»ject of Great Britian be insists on having his trial in this country. The history of the crime with which Phlpps Is charged Is fresh, lie shot his wife whom he met on the ferry boat, and tlie reason ho cave for It was that she was untrue to him. He was arrested as soon as the boat touched the warf in Wlnisor, and a charge of murder was eutst quietly preferred against •him on wbichjiie was examined and held for trial at the assizes. The question was^atsed on which side the crime WPS committed, and much Interest wat manlfested^asfU took somewhat of an lnternatlonalj>h^se. The Canadian authoiities insistedthalthe prisoner should be tried in tnat country, inasmuch as Mrs. Phlpps died after the boat was in Canadian waters. His recapture w4ll open the question of extradition, and interesting developments are anticipated in this connection. of the qnestion of toe power of Canada to extradlte him.

At any rate, at this hotel Stafford met a sporting man, a Southerner, by the namo of Sehwartz, and soon quite a friendship was struck up l>ct\veen tho two. Staflbrd gave put that he had come to this country for a lishiiig and shooting tour, bnt h i d decided upon no particular ground, and when "l Schfifiis proposed a trip to Maine for a d«ffyMMl bear hunt Staflbrd at once jutBjPfp a t the idea.., Schwartz said he was acquainted in Bangor, having stopped there some time a few; years ago while on a iishin<r tour through Maine, and offered social iuducements to Stafford, if lifc accornpanied him north. That maim the trip all the more Inviting t o / t h e young Englishman. The iiuntin "^New York, o s/ outfit was purchased in a celebrated firm on Broadway, anil the pair proceeded to Bangor, by way of Boston. A fortnight wa* spent at the Hub in sightseeing/ and one night at Young's Hotel Schwartz, as he arersv said that -6tafford, while under the influence of wine said that he was a natural son of the Earl of Dunraven, and produced certain papers indited^- personally by His Lordship, which, as Schwartz says, proved 'satisfactorily the statements. These facts were given by Schwartz to a friend_of his in this city, to whom he made a flying visit, upon the eve of his departure for the Maine woods. What follows was taken from a letter just received from Schwartz: At Bcogor another stop of a fortnight was made. Here Stafford became acquainted with a Miss Caroline Grace, Upm New YorF, who was visitinglriends in Bangor: n i v ^ i r c l » s ¥ l ) t t o v o at' first sight. Miss Grace was a- cKarming girl of 20, highly accomplished, and sha-proved as irresistible to the young Englishman as he to h e r / It was with difficulty that Schwartz^prevailed upon Stafford to leave Bangor, and he did not leave that <oty until troth was plighted between/him and '.

They were no epicures— those ancient fathers. They lived simply, and successfully met and overcome difficulties that would have discouraged this age and generation The rigors of the frontier were supplemented by the savages: wild beasts threatened their enterprise and poverty was a common companion. Yet they bravely encountered and resisted all those things and laid the foundations of a land whose blessings we now enjoy. Their constitutions were strong; their health unsurpassed and yet they were forced to expose themselves continually. There certainly must have been some good and adequate cause for all this and for the physical superiority of that age over the oresent. It is well Known to everyone conversant with the history of that time that certain home compounds of strengthening qualities were used almost universally by those pioneers. The malarial evils and.exposures to which they were subjected necessitated this. When their bodies became chilled by cold or debilitated by the damp mists of a new country they are forced to counteract it by the use of antidotes. Medicines were few in those days, and doctors almost unknown. Hence the preparations above referred to. From among t h e number, all of which were compounded upon the same general principle, one was found to be more efficient and hence far more popular than all the rest. It was well known through the middle ntfd western states and was acknowledged as the best preparation for malarial disorders and general debility t h e n V n n w n .

Travel where you may. on this continent or any other, from Pike's 1'etik to Borrioboolah Gha, from the AmU's to the Apennines, if you meet a young woman who speaks KiTglisli and is thoroughly rip in the '•ologies'' you know at once that she comes from Boston. And if you are fortunate enou/h to be iirBostou -itself you tin I that ihis culture is as all-persuasive at home a-Tt snotori-ms elsewhere. It is nut c.mimed to one Boston girl, ojr a few. hut to, all Boston girls; and rinding this fact, •on^tvouders how it happens that there are nociceptions, and wonders, most of all, how all the "young women of so large a city as Boston can posvbiy stand the processes of culture and live through them. The explanation dees not. lie on the surface, but it is comparatively easy? It is a clear case of survival of t ho tit test. The result is reached in the same way as the healthful robustness of the children of the very poor is. It used to be regarded as wonderful that these children, exposed to all manner of priva-'' tions and hardships, were rugged and stout and hearty, with a heartiness that shamed the well-nurtured children of the well-to-do. Social philosophers used to inoral'ze-nbou; it, ami attribute it to the exposure and privation: and they i w d to recommend'that the children •who had warm houses and beds should be suhected to cold and hunger - to "tomrheif' them. There is an.occasional philosopher a good deal behind the age—who does this now But, the ina-ority of _ intelligent people have come to the conclusion that tlie reason why the children of want anil hardship are stout ami healthy is that the Weaklings have all died oil'. They are rugged and strong, not because of hardship, but ill spite of it, because they were by nature and inheritance so tough 'that privation could not kill them in- infanr cy, as it did their weaker brethren. And this is the true explanation, without doubt, of the fact that all living young women in Boston have become cultured and still live. The system pursued in making them so is so evaetin< r that the weaklings have all beenkilled oil'and only the strongest and toughest, the ones who can stand the entire strain, survive. Whether the people of Boston realize this we do not know. The physiciansdo. In the death eertilieategivciiva'Tew days since in the ca-e of aJitthT Boston "gTrlaged fourteen, thr^'d^ctor wrote; "Due to the \\%><Xm\ school system of crainmi»g>-<oo much study and brain wcirjc:^ He knew why it was that the mature representatives of Boston culture showed no signs of injury im-the process. It was because „ they were tough enough to stand itr"'"w4rH-t* those who were i\>t tough enough had given up the struggle and been laid away in the chux-tdiyard. „ ' • Commenting on this case the Boston Vilolh' gives a pretty dclinite notion of the-'process to which this particular young girl succumbed, as hundreds more'havc done, riO'doubt. Tlie list of studies in the school she attended, included mathematics, language, geography, history, drawing on paper and in books, and music; ami each of the studies was divided into two or more branches of special work.

A Deaporate All-Day F i g h t Near T r l u - k l t a t . : — • - Dispatches received at the war-offlce in London from Trinkitat, dated March 1st, say that a desperate battle rated all day the day before. Tne rebels retreated after 1,000 of thtir men had been illled, The io*s of the British Is elven as '24 killed and 142 wounded. The following details of the hattle arc given in a later dispatch: The troops were all assembled before sumet on the morning of the Syth of February, except the Slxty-fiftli Keglment which cime up later. Breakfast over, the forces, about 4,000 strong, formed In an eblong square, the front and rear being longer tbau the sides, Owing to the differ eut strength of the regiments. The Gordon Highlanders formed the advance, with two Gat log guns and one Gardiner in the right corner, and two Gar Miners aud one Gatling in the left corner. The Eiebty-ninth Regiment formed the right-hand side of the iquare, the Black Watch Regiment the rear. Tne length of the front was 350 yards. The hussars acted as scouts, advancing in a semi-circle and 1,000 yards ahead, covering the front and flanka of the mala force. After ndvancing three miles the earth-works of the rebels came In sight. Guns .were mounted and etaudards were flying. The rebel fire hadnow almost ceased, except on the exireme right and left. The British stepped forth as if on a holiday parade, the bat; pipes alyJugaMthe Highlanders footing, cheerily, bey advanced until within 300 y&rds of tne rebel position, wheje an old suktar-mill, surrounded by a number of huts, and a fort with two guns werersitustcd. Here a halt was ordered and/the seouts rejoined the cavalry. Nehner force seemed disposed to open fire. At last "attention" was called, whereupon the peStls, seeing the British move, began the bat tie With a shell frpm a Krupp gun which passed wide over the square. The next shots were aimed with greater accuracy, and the shells burst close to the British, wounding several. The ret els nmintained a rattling fusllade, while the English advanced steadily in a square without answering the rebel fire, till they,.passed north of the rebel works. At this poiht a piece ot shell wounded'Baker Pasha and twenty men were hit. After an echelon /rta thousand yards a halt was ordered and the men directed to lie down. It was now 'noonday, clear, and tbe winds dispersed the smoke of the rebel fire, disclosing the rebels1 movement*. Then the British opened firs with guns and Martini rifles, causing the rebel Are to rapidly slacken and almost cease. At this the bugle again sounded an advance. The troops rose, wheeled on the center of the square and approached the rebel works. The rebels were in no military order, but scattered here and there, so as to take advantage of the abundant cover which the ground afforded. They clung to their position with desperate tenacity. Tnere were 2,000 rebels directly lu front, while many hundreds hung around two sides of the square as the British moved forward, firing as they advanced. The rebel?, armed with spears and huge cross hllted swords, roie within 200 yards of for repairs. Charles E.

"Mahaly was only twenty when her an' Dave Bascom promised their-ielvos to each other.

"Some o' old Simon's help had been wtt&4uin for years", an1 they was falthful as people could be to Mahaly. Then a great aunt o1 herrf,Hitty PJumru, lost her man, an' didn't have tno home nor no children, so Mahaly took her in; but 'fore a month, poer old Aunt Hitty was tlat on her back with the palsy, limp as a rag, an' not a mite o' use <»' one whole side o' her.

Folks knowed that Mahaly wanted it 'kept as long as she could from the child, But, of course, she had to know it tome time, fer chiK drerr will ask questions, a n ' there was ov'ry body calling Mahaly, 'Miss Mahaly,' vou know, an' a, p u r t y goose of a child it M " tions, ch? " S o Cicely growed u? to^-be sixteen^ an' a purtior girl nov*t danced to an Elderville party; She did huvc the died. They was several times when ir. i to wear got out in Elderville that s h e w a s d y i r ' ; a n ' some busybody couldn't wait till 5 If the mam had come home blind an' bald, 'fhout airy leg or arm, she'd still of been true as steel to him. y \ "So I w a ' n ' t a bit s'priscd when M.V h.aly comes an1 bespeaks two weeks o' ravYirue to sew on her weddin* outfit. They was goin' to marry in May, an' that was the middle o' April. "Cicely didn't at first soem to take to David, an' iought kind o' shy o' him. I uded to tease ner, a n ' tell n e r she was jealous; ah' she'd laughLand say she •glory on was. " B n t she soon got to be great friends with Dave, a n ' that tickled Mahaly. She thro wed 'em together as much as see could, a n ' they'd go sLrolhn' ajwin- arm all over the county ; an' some folks did talk some 'bout it ; but I ' d shet 'em up mighty quick if I heerd 'em. It seemed natural a n ' right 'nough to me, seein' that Dayid was old ' n o u g h to be Cicely's father, an* that was what he was reely goin' to be, so to apeak. " M a n y ' s the time when 'Haly a n ' me was busy sewm', have I heerd her say in her joky way : " 'Come now, David, you an1 Cicely go down to the madder back o' the orchard, a n ' s e e if the fence a i n ' t down s o m e p l a c e ' Or i f d be: ^ ^ ' 'Now; Cicely, you an' David go over on the hills, an' s«e if the daisies and Johnny-jump-up's ^? are plenty 'nough for a nosegay. Dorcas an' me are busy a n ' we won't hi.ve you 'roun„d in the way. Cleav out!' "An* that's the way she'd send 'em bffr~"An' once, 'bout a week 'fore the day set for the weddia1 , when we was real Dusy, a n ' real merry over our Tvork, David was liugeriu t h e -things in ' H a l y ' s work-basket. H e ' d got her cotton a n ' silk thread in an awful snail.an' she bein' uncommon cutty-up like that d a } , gives hinili smart box oh the years, and says to Cicely, says she : " ' C o m e , G i e e l y , y o u a n ' y o u r f a t h e r take my basket out under the apple trees, so to be oat of o u r way. an' straighten it up. Somethin' must be done to get this little boy out of the way, or Dorcas.an' me'ii get nothin' done.' "Well, 1 minded afterwards how Cicelv got redder'h a beet, when Mahaley said 'yer father,' a n ' David shifted 'round oneasy like. But they took the basket, an' went out together. "'.^rhe dear souls !' Mahaly said, as tenderly watchin' ' e m o u t * o ' sight. T m so glad, Dorcas, "that m y Cicelythinks so' much of David. An' he think- a sight o' her. He's told me so, o f t e n ^ - J ^ e ' l l all livo together so happily ho i'e !' The tears ackshilly stood in her w e s , she was that happy. P a r t y soon sh<- said: •' *'j'hu Lord is good.

There wap a kind of a speechless cry of a broken heart 'round the P'.'or soul's quiverin' lips. An' oh! the eyes of wretchedness an' despair t h a t sho turnad toward me in that hour! \Foor soul! poor soul! My heart ached so fer her! " I lifted her onto the purty white bed which Cicely had slep' fer so m a n y years. She turned h e r poor whiter t a w - - wearily to the wall, an' I stole out a n ' left her alone. 1 had an idee it was the kindest an' best thing_to do. "OlcTDoc tor Win tergreen waTpaasinT1 ~ I called him in, an' told him as best I could what had happened, an' sent him round to tell folks t h a t there'd be n o weddin'. It was mighty hard, but it had to be done. There was no gettin" out of i t An' I tell you, I didn't spaxe that Cicely! I couldn't soften my heart toward her.

"After an hour or two.I slipped into the room where Mahaly was.

B u t as I bent over her; ste~Turneo!- her eyes "toward" me. I wanted to say somethin' or do -fomethin' fer the poor body. I took her up in my arms.

My recom- * come now, David Bascom ; ttomo to me, a n ' I am to be David an' Cicely! In them • hly joy an1 rest nV peace!1 ked nearly all n u h t but one weddin' day. David had a purty dresses fer a woman, ' H a ' y ' d sent clean to Boston fer her weddin' an- infair dresses. She did reely look like a girl o' twenty-five in her weddin' dress. It was a beautiful laylocfc silk,—an' was most becomia' to her—with lota o' real point lace at the throat and sleeves.—She didn't allow <+"i ** up the purty weddin' layin1 it a w a y . It seemed as handliu' dead people's gar- ( minnit, and1 all of a sudden the .drawn, pitiful look left her white face, an' she whispered: - " 'Surely He hath borne out—griefs.' - -'An' then I—knowed that there had eome to her the everlastin' love, the love that i3 never weary an' cannot fail us, the love an' tenderness a h ' pity of our Lord. ^^= "Well, I'was that rutinin' over full of my hate of Cicely t h a t I couldn't keep it in. 1 burned to s a y all I wanted t o 'bout her, but-didn't dast to with Mahaly's pleadin-' eyes -on m e ^ " A ourty pink mull dress that I'd made fer the girl to wear 'at the weddin' was layin' with its bright ribbons over a chair, waytin' fer the finishin' teches. 1 rolled it up in a bundle an' give it a spiteful fling into a corner. Poor Mahaly give a little .cry as if she'd been struck, an' staggered acrost the Uoor, an1 took the dress u p as tenderly as if it had been a livin' thing. " 'My poor little' Cicely,'' she said, 'Poor child! poor girl!' Then I knowed that I'd better keep my mouth shet if I hadn't any_g6od7To--say- o5 Cieely Boo* little. * * * * • • * * * - » — - " I n a little m o r e ' n a year from that time, I was with m y folks on my way West; an1 Mahaly Doolittle was with 4is—Father he'd got a Western fever, '3: ,;i • ^ w^s savin' all the blush roses I had on some bushes I'd kep' in the house all winter. I allowed the poor girl^was clean gone, but tradyro dress her hair with t h e m an' SUUIH lilies o' the valley, an' p u t 'em in 'long with the lace at "her throat. I knew she'd o' looked real' snipshus. She'd to write to David that she^ was reeiy dead. H e said he 'd \vrit_Jhree times fer pertfcklers, an' got no answer, Letters go*; lost oftener them da.v 3 than they d o n p w , and Mahaly hadn't got his'n. Elderville was a little, outof- the-way place, with only one mail a week, a n ' Dave he hati to send his letters nearly a hundred miles tu po'>t*em. Tho Injuns g o t a w a v v i i h many a ra*il bag, too. Neither Mahaly nor David was great hands for scribblin'. Then they was promised to each other, anyhow, an' I reckon •hey thought courtin' bv mail didn't 'mount to much. " A n ' so, 'tween letters that did go a n ' letters that didn't, David an' Mahaly'd been kep' apart for nigh onto twenty years ' an' neither of ' e m h a d s e e n fit t o marry anybody else. They ' peared to set «s"much store by each other at forty as they had when they was half that old; an' the way they went 'round there like young lovers was enough to make one spttxlafftnA ' E v e r y body was glad o n ' ' H a l y ' a 'count that Dave had come back 'gin. sound in bodvan1 mind, heirt-whtle an' fancy free. "Both of 'em bein' well an1 healthy an' in their right senses, an' likely to live m a n y a year yet, they didn't seem to be no good reason why they shouldn't m a r r y a n ' enjoy the rest o' their lives together. It seemed to m e that the ,E9rd had brung 'em to gether for that purpose I ' m sure they w a ' n ' t so killin' old either, after all. "David hadn't como back with a gold mine in his pockets. 1 guess he was nigh 'bout as poor as when he left, through havin' the ups an' downs of a miner, s life. ' " B u t n i e r c v o i u s ! D'ye reckon Mahaly Doolittle over asked whether the man was rich as Cresu or poor as J o b ' s turkey, which poor critter h a d n ' t but be that kiouiirCt ask ques- one feather in its tail— not she! She never thought o' that. H e ' d come ba«$k true and[faithful; his heart was hers, an' hers was his forever. T h a t was all a woman like Mahaly Doolittle c w e d awful iree wavy brown hair, an' not a streak o' gray in it. " S h e ' planned for a big weddin," bein' as she live-J all her born days right there, and knowed ev'rybody, an> it was 7 ockoned kiu'l o' shabby f o r / a person not to ask tLeir decent" neighbors to a w i s good-sized: an s dinner, an' have y;ll hor-old' I w;w to boss get weddin." Mahaly's/houso he felt abl6 to up a big friends see her.married, the affair. /- "The. weddin' was U> be on the twenty- fifth o' Maj\ I y*as stayin' night an' day at the h o u s e . / a n ' Mahaly an' me alius got up ah got breakfast. She would have i^ fhat young people needed all the sleep they could get, an! so wouldn't call Cicely only in time for to go. too. She said she longed to go -awavr^-the further the better. ':£>o she sold oft her place an1 things^ 'eeptin' what she made free gifts of to some of the hands that'd lived for years with her. She'd n o kin near'n fortysecond cousins, anyhow. '-A bia^in1 -June-day-found us out-oabreakfaSt a n ' s h e needn't get up then if she'didn't please to. I reckon Mahaly h a d n ' t failed to slip into Cicely's room an' kiss her good mornin', in tho hull seventeen years o' the girl's life. " T h e m o m i n ' of the twenty-fourth it was she tip-toed into Cicely's room jest 'fore breakfast, an' in a xninit I heerd a scream that was the most pitiful, painful, heart-rendin' thing I ever heerd in my life. , I rushed aorost the hall an into Cicely's room. There was no one in it but Mahaly, a n ' sho lay flat on the floor, with a face that w a ' n ' t whiter when she lay dead t h a n it w a s t h a t minnit. H e r eyes was wide open an' starin' in tho most horrible way at nothin'. She ' d a b i t o ' writin'-paper tight in her clenched hand. She let m e read it after a good m a n y days. J t * e a d : / "DEAR, DB4R, DBAR MAMMA: I cannot write or think of anything but that I am gtflnir away with David to be his wife. We lovp each other so. Forgive rac, if you can, dear mamma.

"Mahaly had tried to live on alone at her place, but could'n. She'd no heart to see to things like she once had, an' 1 think she got older that twentv-fourth of May than in any ten years o' herlife. The drawn, pained look never quite left her face; there was an everlastin' quiver 'bout her lips, an' the pink flush never came back to her cheeks. It didn't take long fer the silver to como into her hair. " W e never heerd a work o'/C'icely an' David, an' never mentioriedr'em, no more'n if they'd never been born— which I wish they h a d n ' t — " l w a s years younger'h Mahaly, but as I'd been with he> in her worst trouble, it seemed tc^kind o' bind me to her; an' my father an' mother had knowed her folks all their days, she used to say tilat we seemed like her own-kin. So when -father talked 'bout movin' West, Mahalv said she wanted i we camped we/had been g l a d the-Kansss plains. Father'd got the Colorado fever by this time, an' was goin' on there.

To any one who has studied the laws of life, ami especially those w h i c h relate to reproduction, an experience such r.s wo arc about to relate, will c o m e with special force and interest. T h e transmission of certain mental traits of prominence, and of certain physical trait's of equal prominence, a r e facts which all acknowledge, but jwhich none can understand. T h e father m a y be distinguished,—tho son, an imbecile; or, the parent m a y be decrepit a n d unknown, and the child achieve the highest place possible to humanity. B u t through it all,there will be eertain characterhitics, which mark the individual as descending from certain ancestors. T o o often, indeed, these characteristics are infirmities, and often of a physical nature. Tiiese facts were strikingly brought out during a conversation, which a representative of this paper recently had with. Mrs. Carrie D. T. Swift, w h o is the wife of one of our most prominent citizens. This lady related that she inherited from her parents certain tendencies, over which s h e h a d no control, a n d which were in the nature of blood difticulties, assuming t h > form of rheumatism.

Mrs. Boss Immediately recognized the n a m e , and reported her discovery to a son-in-law, J o h n Kessler. About the pa me time letters were received from relatives in Germany, and the matter was placed in Consul Schamberg's hand3. H e says tho value of the estate is $20,000j000,and that it consists of valuable property in Philadelphia, N e w York a n d Germany, and largs s u m s of m o u e y deposited in various places. Emerich w a s e n g a g e d in the ocean trade b e t w e e n Europe, Australia and America. H i s partner in this business at o n e time was John J a c o b Astor.

Friend Ayres, of the Milford Review, ventures a legal opinion on the local option law enacted at the last session -of-the-Stafe Legislature. The gist of this opinion is that the laws is intended to sappress ''saloons" for the sale of intoxicating liquors but that it does tff0treffecrthe licensing of hotel bart where the' principal business of the concern is to feed customers and the selling of liquor is a "side show" to the main business. We think you* opinion is decidedly lame, Bro. Ayreat * A hotel bar tor the sale of liquor is a saloon, within the meaning of the law, just as truly the establishment which runs, a free lunch counter as a side show to the liquor business. In rapport of this assertion you will please notice that hotel bars are required to close on election day and legal holU days, same as other saloons. - The village election, Monday, wai a very quiet affair, there being only one ticket in the-field, and the contest having been only at the union caucus^ Saturday P.

Tbe rebels retreated after-l,0U0"~Of~ their men had been tllledi—The looo of the British Is ulven as 24 killed and 142 wounded. The following details of the battle are given in a later dispatch: ^The troops were all assembled before sunset on the morning of the 2yth of February, except tbe Sixty-fifth Regiment which c i n e up later. Breakfast over, the forces, about 4,000 strong, formed in an oblong square, the front and rear beiog longer than the sloes, owing to the differ ent strength of the regiments. The Gordon Highlanders formed the advance, with two Gatiing guns and one Gardiner iu the right corner, aud two Gar liners and one Gat'ing iu the left corner. The Etebty-ninth Regiment formed the right-hand side of the Vquarc, the Black Watch Regiment the rear. Tue length of the front was 350 yards. The hussars acted as scouts, advancing In a semicircle aud i.,000 yards aht*d, covering the front and flanks of the main force. After advancing three miles the earth-works of the rebels came in Bight. Guns were mounted and standards were flying. The rebel fire had now almost ceaeedf except on the ex ireuie right and left. Tbe Brttn-n stepped lorth as if on a holiday parade, the bag pipes palyiug aud the Highlanders footing cheerily They advanced until within 3J0 yards of the rebel position, where an old ^ugar tndl, surrounded by a number of huts, and a fort with two guns were situated. Here a halt was ordered and the scouts rejoin*d the cavalry. Nei ner force seenud disposed to open fire,. At last "atteutio'i" was called, whereupon the reV.s.?:! ng the British move, began the bit tie with a shell from a Kruppguu which passed wide over the square. Tne next Bhots were aimed with grea'er weeuracy, and burst close to the BrtttBh, w o u n d i n g - peTeratr The rebels m^lntalnvd a rattlluz . fust lade, while the English advanced steadily Iu a square without auswering the r c M fire., till they passed north of the rebel work*. At. this potht a piece of shell wounded Baker P aud twenty men were hit. After au of a thousand yards a halt was, orrfered and the men directed to He d o w n - - ^ I t was now noondiy. clear, and tbe^wfnits dispersed the •smoke of the rebelflj><Gi»vlo«ing the rebels' movements.

They clung to their portion t enaclty. There were 2,000 front, while mauy hundred-* huhg aroutiH two sides of the square as the British moved for ward, tiring as they advanced. The-rebels, armed with spears and huge cross-hllted sword*,JEO& within 2oO yards of the advancing lines aPfl rmheg apilnBt the British at break-neck speed, heedless and fearless of deatu. The rebels fell right and left, though some of the brave fellows reached within five paces of the square. They only fell back suddenly when thev were forced. Having cleared ihe kround in Irout with their Martini rtfl. s; the British attacked HIH fort. Col. But-caby was the first to mount tbe parapet, firing a doubled barreled shotgun into the enemy. Around the works ihe rebels /ought wlih furious energy, Httd a f r l ^ t f tee ine ee of bayonets and spears took pl»c -.

They could uuly be killed. The British next directed their a t'eutiou to an old sugar mill—a brick bud dug containing an Iron boiler. 1 his they stormed and succeeded in dislodging ^00 rebels, who leaped the fort and charged from every opening. The rebel.-) fiually gave way, aud bolted. TLe British pursued the rebels as they fell back aud advanced as far as~the fresh water weUs of Teb, where the rebels made their last stand. Sheikhs, who advanced empty handed to show that they bore charmed Jives, were stricken down with bayocet thrusts. The Highlanders carried the bext outwork, cantur lng three BUQS. At the end of four hours' arduous righting the British gained possession of the rebel camp of hutsaHd wells. The cavalry on the right flank charged the retreating rebels, who did not bolt, but met the troopers who rode among them, giving blow for blow. A splendid display of heroism was made by three, mounted rebels They resolutely maintained their ground against the Bhocck of tWo cavalry charges. In the third charge they were cut down, but not before they had killed several men and wounded -Col. Barrow with their spears. The enemy retired sullenly and in consequence the British kept up their firing for a long tim.; after the fortunes of the day had been decided. A later dispatch from Gen.

In the building in New York City in which are the main offlcesof tbepoetal tel company a number of gentlemen were experimenting a few days since with a telephone, with which the inventor says he expects to talk across the ocean as Boon as the Bennet-Mackey cable is laid. It is the invention of Webster Qillet, of Y>gilantl, Mich., who claims to have solved the problem of adding batterv to line almost wttb xxt limit. He "fays a current of sufficient strength is generated on the line1 wire to overcome very high resistance—as high, he belleves,as will be. found on the Atlantic cable. The experiments made were in speakfjg through the 10 point multiple tel-phone over about 320 miles of wire betWe( n New York and Washington on a wire of the Potoal Telegraph company's system, and close conversation betwe.cn the two cities were carried on successfully. — - Nlles warts the Mtc Igan soldier*' home and Is making rigorous effort* to g;t it.

Why! it ia kind of a delicacy, I suppose, but theue are places in the world «*>;heiv they are as common as bacon. It s pot always easy to make the business profitable, owing to the high price oi fowls. We can only preserve the breasts and legs. When the lees- are preserved,'1 said the man, smiling broadly, "they are called hams." "How do you dispose of the other portions of the fowl?" "Well some of it we are compelled to throw away. Other portions can be used in making goose-lard. That you know sells at forty cents per pouud. We get .from one to two pounds fro each fowl. This is a small yield, you Jmi9t understand^, but we do not .hunt for fat geese in buying for this trade. We want those that seem to ha e plenty of meat -btrt as littlefat as is-mnr aistent with their health and flavor. The breasts when smoked and dried weigh on an average about three pounds. Three and a half pounds is about as heavy as we can get them generally. They are curea almost the Same as pork bam?, except that we add a little garlic to the sugar and salL When offered for sale the meat is as dryas dried beef and is chipped and eaten raw. To tell you the truth, there Is nothing better' in the way oftlried jneats. I ship a great deal of the dried meat or •goose-bacon' to New York, and some I sell here, where the other material is always disposed of. I h e only product sold in its greerror- fresh Condition is the livers. These I sell under contract £o one man, who pays hie fifteen cents apiece for them. You know they are very small. All healthy livers are," though the most unnaturally enlarged ones bring the most money.1' "You speak only of geese; do''you distinguish between them and the ganders?' 7 •' , 4 0 , no, there is only a trilling difference, if any, in the flavor, and we pay no attention to sex in replenishing our stock of fowls." - "Who are your patrons?" "Tbsy are divided chiefly among: the Jews t e d the Germans, and by both goose-bacon is considered a rare delicacy, You would be surprised to see the kind of people who buy of me. I have people come here in carriages to make purchases and leave orders.

We do not understand that the viTTageTas taken any action in the matter,the corporation election bar. ing already passed, and the local papers at the county-seat are silent r* garding the matter, and although the village is given till the first of October to raise their part yet we think the chances of carrying the proposition at the township election would have been Improved by submitting and carrying the project in the village first, thus showing their willingness to do their part. The rumor has also reached our ears that many prominent citizens of Howell are opposed to raising the $&,•« 000 in the village, and farmers hav% said to us that there is no use for tfei county to vote~the p5,000 and the* have Howell knock the whole thing over by a refusal to comply with the requirements on her part" There may i ! • I - T - be some reason for this, but it must be acknowledged that the county needs new buildings, and we trust a fair ex* pression may be given without preju* dice from the sourse mentioned.

On the,opposite side of the street was the Sherman house, a three story brick structure, to which the lire leaped, and then a general' panic seized every one. The wind was very strong from the 60Uihwest and swept the flames directly over the business portion of the town. Every business man commenced moving his goods at once toaplace of fancied security, but places which'were deemed safe were quickly caught by the flames and destroyed in an Instant. Following the Sherman house, the Empire block caught fire and then it was plain that both sides of Locust street must go. The E.n- Slre nlock'was occupied bv Sherwood A riswold, E. C Jennt-r, H. A.

The magnificent Luton block withered before the careering flames as though it had bten dry leaves, while the National bank was not eren a morsel for the hungry and devouring element. Vvith the exception of the buddings above named there is not a business house left in Allegan. No loss of life Is reported, as but few were living in the section burned over. About 30 families'were render*! homeless and they will receive ample attention for their immediate wants. The total loss is about $250,000, which Is below rather than above the actual, figures.

SOME TERRIBL€ TESTIMONY that they were Jud's tracks, or that there was anything peculiar about them before we went, think the heel of the right foot was smaller and made a deeper impression than that of the left foot; could not follow the track after it Crossed the fence to George Ilutchins' land; /the ground was frozen when I found them. Harry ^Hague, examined on Saturday, was recalled and said that Eber Murray and Dr. Kimball were present when heexaminid the tracks, which were in the wheat field west of Hoi• comb's house, and directed from Holcomb's to the Crouch place. The track* appeared to witness as made by a person wno walked as Jud Crouch did, the rl*bt track wad smaller and deeper and the heel of the right foot made a much deeper impression. The peculiarity of tbjse tracks was plainly noticeable and were commented on by others. Under cross examination, Hague said; If the tracks had been followed back they would have come out north of Holcomb's, but a swamp intervened and I found the trackB north of the swamp; the swamp is northwest of diolcomb's about 15 rods; they seemed U come from a shed-like building in the edge of the woods, near Holcomb's buildings; there was another track alongside this peculiar track, but it was not as discernible and-we could only see it occasionally ; the tracks showed that the two feet came together when going down hill; in other phices t t e right foot went ahead; alter 1 saw these tracks I watched Mr. Crouch's manner of walking; am positive the right foot was smaller than the left by o n e i n c u ; it looked like a track jtuit such as Jud JJrouch would make going across the field and that's all I can say; tney were very distinct, and only slightly obliterated by alternate freezing and thawing; „__ in the west field they w^ere not qu1te~ardtBttnct, I \mu"[ua hetrar but the wheat had more top. John Thomas was sworn, and corroborated "sW led Hague's testimony in regard to the tracks. Mark L. Hitchcock testified^ to a conversatlon with Jud Crouch in which the latter said thr fTlllT^ llllllliii n nnlrt nrvrrhft frmnil, anil it would never be known bow much the people were. rcbbecLof... Nellie Snvder was sworn. She said Jud was first told of' the murder by Boiles, and manifested no surprise when told of -It. Witness told Holcomb of the tragedy, and after informed Mrs. Holcomb. Holcomb did not tell his wife. Holcomb was away from home several times during a few wee'ks preceding the murder; the last time said he bad been to a brother's up north. The day following the murder Holcomb went to town and came back shaved, and "rlmnvnl htnrlothinghffjrggnlngtinthf^rrpu^h place. Had seen Jud have a pistol. Jud had" r on a light pair of pants thatjhe^ore wheuue-f Witnessj;waa-at H o l c o m b ' s t h e day of the Hoi-" Crouch |126 for two cows. Crouch said | h e wasn't feeling well and didn't care to sell anything. Polley said he would go to Dan Holcomb's in the morning to buy a bull he had, and If he bought It he would try to buy the cows. First saw Win. Clements the morning after the murders, when be notified Ray Clements. One of them said the people in the house might have been chloroformed. William said he could tell as soon as he entered tue house. He said he detected the odor of chloroform. The witness was very closely questioned by Frsiser and Wils n, but his testimony la considered very Ereclse as to minor details, but not very sound l regard to material matter. In one thing the boy was very firm; he was sure he could stay in the chest several hours. Both sides, however, believe the boy is hold lug something back. The w itness was recalled in the afternoon, but nothing new elicited. When asked how he knew the people were murdered, he said he was frightened because no one was up, and he received no answer to bis call. Walter H. Purdy was next sworn, but his testimony only related to facts which occurred sometime beforehand farther than a remark made by Jud that he "would see the old man (his father) in hell" before he would pass him up at the county fair did not refer in any way to tire ltlations existing between the family.. Mrs. Emma Hax&mond testified as follows :— Saw Jud at Clark's Lake. Jud spoke of the sizeof his father's and Byron's property. He said he and his father had not spoken for some time. Saw Jud in town twice, about dusk of the evening before the murders. Saw him on Cortland and Mechanic street*. Mrs. Holcomb said l a s t J u l v , i n Jud's presence, that her father was feeble and intended to settle Fred Londaberry, sworn: . comb at the time of the murders. Foy came before sflring work commenced last year and examination,bnt was not disturbed in the least. He gave a full account of his life since 1858, whep he was sent to state prison from Adrian for an assault with Intent to kill. He said the last revolver he carried was four years ago, and that one he traded for a watch while in California, and threw the time-piece at a horse's ear. Harrington was then dismissed, but will be examined again by Wilson tomorrow. Sheriff Wlnney w»s then called to the slsnd. His testimony was a corroboration of Harris'. He was present at the interview with Holcomb at the Htbbard house, and said Holcomb showed much agitation when questioned, ana hesitated in giving his answers. Witness had noticed Holcomb's reluctance in giving testimony regarding his never having owued a 38 calibre revolver, at the inquest and his embarrassment wteh admitting to Harris and witness that he did own a 33-caltbre revolver. Holcomb could not tell at what store in Lansing he bought the revolver and Wlnney had been to Lansing and tried to find whether such pistol had been sold but to no avail. Jesse Hurd, a juryman at the coroner's inquest, swore that Holcomb's testimony at the inquest w a i t o j j i e effect that he (Holcomb) had nsver owned~a>iS-callt>rerevolver, and told D. Reynolds he never bought one and never owned one. t Coroner Casey and William Oilley, a juror, swore the same as Hurd. Nettie Snyder was then recalled. She said that during the seven weeks she lived at Holcomb's, there was no butchering done previous to the murder. (Lounsbury swore yesterday that they butchered hogs two days before the murder.) TII8 SIXTH DAY WotlccdfoTTToT I "f H m '"' ^'M'IIHH in iran Unhand ta hy an im- _ mense crowd, called out by the startling developments of theUay before. C. D. Ilerrington, whose testimony of day before created such a sensation was the first witness called. In spite of all the subterfuges to which the lawyers" resorted, they could not make the man change his testimony, and his accountof his transactions wittfFoy were related with a clearness which, if not true, showed that the man was on his guard, and had come well prepared. William H. Hartupee, a hardware dealer, remain ed until the murders. Foy slept up stairs with Charlie Andrews. Foy said he had lived in Pennsylvania and worked in the mines, which didn't agree with Ms health. Foy knew Holcomb. Said be had worked for him off and on for 13 years. Holcomb and Jud had pistols alike ex » p t the handles, one black one broken. Witness saw this lu a bureau drawer. Saw Jud and Foy clean them in the kitchen two or three Sundays before the murders. The pis tols were rusty. Heard them shooting. Asked I was called. He Bwore to nothing positive, but Taken at tb&-J2xaininatiQn_of Crouch and Dan Holcomb. J ad TUg TflIHD flitthe examination of Jud Crouch and Dan Holcomb was continued In the presence of an orderly crowd, fairly tilling the court room. Drs. Gibson and McLaughlin were sworn as to the wounds fouLd on the bodies of the four murdered people. Dr. Gibson thought Irom appearances that all were shot while asleep except Mrs. White. Appearances indicated that she had been aroused andbad struggled somewhat before receiving the-fatai*htth---ThgJ.at> ter physician testified to seeing more blood on •-bedding and an_the carpet than the former. Jacob Hutchins testified to going to tne Crouch homestead immediately upon bearing of the murder; I made examination for tracks; Gilbert Wilson and I traced tracks at Wilson's crossing to Crouch's crossing, on the railroad; it was in the sand on the track; think it was a No. 8 boot; we went beyond th 2 Wilson crossing, but could find none further. I went borne ana afterwards went out and found a track that I pronounced t o b e Jud Crouch's in the field between the widow Crouch's and my son's land; it seemed to come from Holcomb's barn toward's Crouch's house; it was very plain: was there three or four days: it was in a growing wheat field; ground was rather soft; I showed thenv to young-White ancLDlckJ^Ici, Daniel: I think they are Jud Crouch's tracks; went to town, and had them 'on the evening before the murder, that night and the next day. Mr. Wilson seemed to attach great importance to the statement made by Miss Snydwvthat Holcomb shaved and dressed himself befare>he went to the Crouch place the day before the murder, and closely questioned her.buther testimony could not l>e altered. Ella Shamon was next sworn, and her testimony created something of a furore in the court room. She said: Was living with my mother in Liberty at the time of the murder; know Mr. Holcomb; worked there after 'the murder i went there a .week from the day after the funeral; was there one week; I 2ot there on Sunday and did The washing the next day. Mrs. Ho.comb said she did not believe all the clothes had been picked up for the previous washing. I searched for the clothes in the room occupied by Jud and Foy ;"I fonnd clothes behind a wooden chest on the wost side of the room; the chest was close to the wall; I was' &weepiDg and pulled the chest out; 'here was a white shirt, a pair of pacts and aa undershirt; they were men's dubbing; there was blood upon the pants aud blood upon the bo«om and upon the cuffs of ITU.' shirt: Dou't kuuw-w-hat oecaiae of them; thty disappear, d. Jud and Foy came in one ~dav and went up stairs and brought down a bund if of clothing for the wash and tbhf'shlrt aud pants wert not among them and I have not seen them since; when they were comlDgdown stairs 1 was in the dining-room and' beard them stop on the stairs and *hbper together. I left the clothes just as i found thenirquetze behind the trunk. I also found a pair of fine 1'Hther loots beside the heed ot Jud's bed; thev were muddy; when >Jud aud Foy came to i&tcn-thii-Ciothes Jud brought these boots down Foy what he was shootlxur at. Foy said to see how the pistols would work after cleaning. Witness saw cartridges. Saw the pistols in a drawer a day or two-iefore the murders. Jud got the pistols to clean them. There was a rjfieagdjji_shotgun in the house. Dan made witness a present of aTtfieniftcr the murders* never talked with Jud 01 Holcomb about it ox. the murder; there was another man's track alongside about three feet from the peculiar one; this track was not so plain as the other; the track went out from my 6on's land to widow Holcomb's: ' could pot follow them more than eight or ton rods, because the ground was hard; did Lot expect to find Holcomb's tracks, but wanted to find out whether it was done oy a traveling tramp or some one else; I saw tbe track very plain and felt sure it was Jud'?; I saw the- track next day; did not show it to anybody till several days; I tbink the track"was"made the night of the flaurders>-ttiere was some rain - thatnignt—it wasjntfcMy: don't know whether the tracks wcr^made before or after the rain; did notjnealsure the tracks; did not see anyicasure the track; the impression of the ieel" was peculiar; don't know whether it was iron or leather; I went twice to the wheat field to see the tracks and saw tbem each time; did not see the other man's track ail the way: it wa6-not very plain; the land was rising all the way frim the swall to the hill; it rained some that night—not much—r^thtr late in the night; the track on the railroad came from the east and stopped at Crouch's; they wt-re made in the rain I thought; the tracks were all about the same degree of freshness. In the afternoon, a greater crowd assembled, and very many were unable to gain admittance. WUford White, a brother of the deceased, was . the firbt witness called. He said: Mr. Hutch- _ ins pointed out tracks to me in the widow Holcomb's field; we traced them for 40 or 50 rods plainly distinct lu the mud of the held; they werenear the fence and going toKaj^lsJ^rouch's residence and coming from tbe roadway to a swamp a short distance from Holcomb's; the right track was much deeper In the mud than the left, and-the_track of the left foot was much larger than that of the righT; T~ cannolrstate how they corresponded with those of Jud Crouch; the track of the right heel was very deep add different in appearance from that of the left; should judge the track was'recently made; first discovered the tracks about 50 rods _from the house; the ground was soft on the night of the murder, a t d was Jazen afterwards; I examined tbe tracks at Mr. HutchlnS' solicitation, who said—he had previously examined them; 1 saw them about eight or ten days after tne murder; from the •general appearance and'size- of tbe track I" should say they conformed closely to those of Jud's tracks. When cross-examined Mr. White said he never saw Jud Crouch'a traks forcertaitu^ Measurementa of the tracks were taken, but witness was unable to recall them now. The tracks came from the north or westerly direction, and kept close to the wheat-field fence for some distance and then diverged, going In a due westerly direction towards Crouch's; Mr. Hutchins asked me to-ga_anjj see the track*; "but did aot express his opinion iu bis Laud; tbry were covered with black muck.

I was coming in with Jud and J o y when Boiles told them of the murder. Jud said "It couldn't be DOSSIble." JJolles said their throats were all" cut. Boiles told Holcomb, but I didn't hear what Holcomb said. Witness was shown a thirtyeight revolver and said the ones that Jud ^ d Foy cleaned were smaller than the one sbown. Left Holcomb's after Mrs. Holcomb died. Never heard any of the Holcomb family say any thins as to how or who killed the family. Witness suidh was quite positive that holcomb asked boiles if Foiley was there. The prosecution consider this Important, as Holcomb did not know that Polley was at Crouch's at the time. Chas. Van (jelsou sworn: Live in Summit. Had a talk with Holcomb February 4 01 tins city. Holcomb had heard that witness bad said that he (Holcomb) had said that Euniee White''* unborn child should "Never sec tinlight of day.' Witness denied saying s'o. He asked Dan how much he got for bringing up Jud, ami Holcomb replied. "Not a d - j cent." In regard to the suspicion that Jud was con ccrueli in the shooting, Holcomb said, "You dou'-t.think Jud has nerve cuouah to do that. It took a cool nerve to do it." Witness sau? -h'- tli'Uitt'bt -Tr^ t<y> b'g a. fool Holcomb said- "He isn't such a fool as you tmnk lie i s j j y a " d—d siyht.

Witness was shown a picture of Foy, but could not positively identify it. He said, however, U fro^e a strong resemblance to the man who vi-itedhls store. tJalenE. Brown was the workine next witness. H e said he began on the Crouch case about the 1st of January. Foy told> Brown In a conversation at the Crouch house, early In January, that he knew just how tbe murder was done; that Jacob Crouch was the first one 6hor. He said Polly was shot while standing near the door and thrown back on the bed. The second person shot Mr.. and Mrs. White, whUe-the thtr'd kept watch outside. Witness saw*Foy some" tune afterwards ou the railroad track, when Foy remarked that t-h4»--time wm rearly at fr*"'* 'whw he would not be obliged to work for a .Uving, for the Crouch estate owed him ¢2,000. Witness a*ked nini if so large a sura was due him for work he ban done on the farm. Foy said no, but refused to state how Crouch became indebted to him to that amount.. Foy subsequently stated that he was afraid of 'Jud . and Holcomb, aDd if the worst must come to light, he would unra7el the whole thing himself. Foy had been drlnklug.

The examination was adjourned till to-morrow. ' T i l E FOVJVTII UAT. When the examination was resumed on the morning of the fourth-day, the court-room was completely tilled. It is a noticeable feature of the examination that the vast assembly is so orderly, in view of the intense Interest felt by all. The testimony taken yesterday In regard to the tracks in the wheat field is regarded as very damaging by the defense, in spite of the fact that Jud Crouch had. previously testified that he had nev#r crossed tliat field. George Hammond was first sworn, and said that he had known Jud since a boy. Testified to a conversation with Jud held 10 months before,in which Jud f^aid that he and his father had not spoken for six months. The old man Crouch wanted Jud to go to Texas with his brothers, but that Jud positively refused to go, George Bollep, the Negro boy employed nt the Crouch farm was the next witness "called. After testyfyinz as to the length of time he had been employed on the Crouch farm, and a few other facts of minor Importance, Bollos told over again the story of the fatal night:— There was a pounding noise on the. Moor and a voice cried "Oh!'- twice. Heard five blows atruck, about half- a minute apart. Heard no cries after the blows stopped. Got into a chest and remained there awake till morning. Heard no more noise but the wind blowing a door or shutter. Got up after daylight. Called Mr. Crouch, but received no answer. Then went to notify the neighbors. When witness told Holcomb the latter said: "What's that; O Lord!" Boiles was very cloeely-questioued by Mr. Gibson ahout the events belore going to bed and the noises rn the night.

Thomas was not cross examined. The testimony of Dective -Tohn <J. Harris, who was the second witness, was exceedingly Interesting and highly sensational.

He said he • first made a thorough investigation of the surroundings of the Crouch Somestead and was shown through the hwnr by Foy and Jud. The latter told him of finding empty cartridge shells on the floor. Mr. Harris said he had worked from the first la conjunction with Sheriff Winney. He had a conversation with Holcomb at his room in the Htbbard house before his (Harris') visit to Ogemaw county to see William Holcomb, Dan's brother. Holcolmb said he was awakened about 12 o'clock on the night of tbe murder by the slamming of the barn door.

The present floods, which are either devasting or threatening the country in every direction, are juaSy cause for apprehension. No matter whether they come suddenly or by slow degrees, they are. in either case, a great evil and much to he dreaded, a n d yet America will always be troubled by these spring overflows. Probably one of the most disastrous that w a i ever known, occurred in Rochester, N . ¥ . , about; twenty^year* ago. The Genesee river, just above the falls, where Sam Patch made his final and fatal leap, became completely blockaded by ice, forming an impassable dam, and the water coming down the Genesee river overflowed the"priuci- 5al portion of t h e city of Rochester, 'his catastrophe would have been repepoated the present year had hot the energy and foresight of the city authorities prevented it. The writer happened to be in Rochester at the time and was greatly interested in the manner in which this great catastrophe was averted. Every few momenta, a roar like" the peals 6f thunder or the booming of cannon would be heard, and in c d e r to see this ice blasting process the writer went to the top of the new Wanjur building, which overlooks the Genesee river. From here he was not only enable to see the process uninterruptedly, but also the magnificent buildifig which has just been completed.

"Singular, but I had forgotten that you do not^ advertise to cure all diseases from o n e bottle,as is done generally by many other medicine men, but I supposed Warner's Safe Cure was for the cure of rheumatism."

One of tlio loading Secret Service men of the United States, and orns who perhaps knows more than any other of th'.> Government Her vice, tells rae that not jnore than tivo per cent, of all the counterfeiting done escapes detection. •'Counterfeiting," says he, "as far as hills and bonds are concerned is practically suppressed, and the chief work now done is in coin. The Secret Sorrlee of the Gorornraent is so effiofcfit that counterfeiters are turning &«ir Attention from the counterfeiting fli Hational securities, to that of State Momrities, and now Vhcre are many men on work-of-' But do the United Elates Secret Service have anything to do with State .crime?" I asked. "No, not directly," was the reply. **But as long as we" can prevent it we do not intend to have one of theso blessed States sutfer, and we will ^id Jthem whenever we can." "What of the future? Do you think the Government will ever he *.ble to #tcrp counterfeiting" I asked. "No, I suppose not,1' was the reply. "Hut it will be a'ile to pra -tically prevent its succi-s^'ul operation. There are in any co-interj'eitor.s IH+Win -f>r- Jind these will in time again be let loose jiipon the community. Counterfeiters raroly reform a ter 'en^u^ing in the business. There seems ro bi« a kind of f»scina:ion"about it w..Mh draws them back Into it. Tiiey u-uaily spend thetr time in prismiin prorfmg new crimes. The/ are generally brlgljt, intellectual fellows, a id taougij they know that ninery-'ive out of every hundred of them are det'^'ted, they seem always to think they will I>e among the live who escape. In prison they review carefully their" work and debate how they will be able to avoid the fault which caused their detection. At last they think the.y have it, and come out full of new ideas to plot against the Goverument.T—They try their new scheme, but are again detected. In their new counterfeit they have overlooked other things. There are other defects which were not before noticed, and soon we have them »gain. And then there are their chilaren. The principles of hereditary descent seem to hold good as to counterfeiting.—Of course, there are many exceptions. H«re we have a criminal whose ancestry seems to have been perfectly pure ana honest. Here we have one whose ancestry is one continuous chain of jai} birds. But in general the rule holdg §ood. Bad parents produce bad chilren, and parents who are counterfeiters breed counterfeiters.11 ffHavp you any cases where the crime rups through several generations?•' "Yes, many. I have nOw in my mind a family in Indiana who for three generations have been practicing counterfeiting^ I b e l i e v e _ t a a •fourth will follow in the footsteps of the preceding ones. All along the line ?thcy have been detected and punished, but they plot and replot, ana are no sooner out of prison for one crime than they are in again for Another. They are bright intellectually, and could make a good living in other ways, but villainy seems bred In their bones, and it comes out in theflesh generation after geheVatlou, We have a number of other cases whare the crime b&* existed in wkole families for two generations, and seems to be fairly progressing towards a third. It often runs through a whole connection, and fathers and sons, brothers and sisters, are now in prison for not the same but successive and different crimen "It often happens that counterfeiting is done by a person whose family has had a good record as to morality, and where no reason can be found for it. 1 am thinking now of a case in point A young man of thejnost respectable parents,' well-to-do «nd perfectly honest, is sent by them to school and studies law. A few months after his graduation from the Jaw school," while he has plenty of money and a fair chance of succeeding in his profession, rested for counterfeiting. He has not only entered intp the crime without temptation, but he has drawn five of his .companions in with him. He did not do it for example or necessity. Why did he do it? The Lord only knows. "Then there are cases of men standing high in the learned professions who have been counterfeiters. There are cases of men who could" make $100 a day in legitimate ways engaged in this crime, where even though successful they could not make nearly so much. I i"\( fill I r i n f t q art u r t f i v pi a: noble that it makes the mind dizzy to think of them." "What meaus do you think to be.the best for the prevention of counterfeiting?" _ ' "There seems 'to be nothing better than those now used. I would have severe laws for the crime. I would have a gooii detective force and | vrould give each criminal a f;iir trial.

A complete newspaper,—complete in the one essential feature of American journalism, u e., presenting all the-itews,—4o\& on the street at any price less than the conventional nickel, was an innovation in western journalism, and, like all new enterprises, the "cheap paper" had to contend with long-* established custom and even prejudice before securing the recognition it sough* and deserved. At the end of the first year, 1876, it had achieved a dailyjala. tanging from 8,000 to 10,000 copies. From this time forward its progress was b«yond all precedent in American journalism. In }877 its average daily circulv lion was 22,037 copies ; in 1878, 88,314 copies; in 1879, 45,194 copies ; in 1880, ¢4,801 copies. On the morning of March 21, 1881, the CHICAGO MORNING Nxwa made its first appearance. In September following, the sixth month of its publication, \X» circulation amounted to 490,019 copies, or a daily average of 18,84« copies,—a circulation never before attained by any daily paper in the United States, within a corresponding time. , The C n i o e o DAILY NEWS, therefore, as now published, consists of Moanwo, NOOK, and BTENIWO ISSUES, known respectively as the MORNING NEWS, KOOH NEWS, and EVENING NEWS. The average combined circulation of the three issue* of She DAILT NEWS now exceeds 90,000 copies each day. To appreciate tfc# exceptional extent of this vast circulation it is only necessary to state that it to over three times the circulation of any other daily paper in Chicago •r ft* West, while its circulation in the city tf (ihtiagn ia B M i r m t&an ALB other Chicago daily papers COMBINED. Being an independent paper, the organ of BO party, sect, or class, it is the one universally read Chicago paper. T h . •obacriptron price of the DAILT NEWS, either MORNING or KTXNINO issue, is $8.00 per year, or |2.00 for four months, postage included. On July 2,1878, the DAILT NEWS purchased the CHICAGO Erwrnra POST, consolidated its daily issue with the DAILY NEWS, and continued its weekly Issue under the name of .the CHICAGO WEEKLY NEWS. The WEEKLY NEJ -under its present name and management is therefore less than five vearsold, though as a consecutive weekly publication it is now in its twien}le4ifyear. The CHICAGO WEEKLY NEWS takes a corresponding field among^weekly newspapers to that occupied by the DAILY NEWS among dailiej^ltgives the news of tho world in condensed yet complete form. Its^jQhtcago raarkc quotations are etr pecially complete and trustworthy. Th*Tthe CHICAGO WEEELT NEWS has been _ .correct in its judgment of thereqtflrementa of a large class of readersoftho weekly press is best evidanced hy the extent of its circulation, which aggregated la the month immediately preceding the date of this writing, 202,053 copies, or * weekly average of 50,518 copies. ^The subscription price of the WHKXLY .

A few days ago a colored ruesseuger at the capitol thought to add to hi* personal appear- Dr. Mary's plug hat, a familiarity which the irate M. D, rejufHng the descendant of made the welkin ring witW his cries, after which Dr. Mary turned to her work, and all was quiet ance by wearing familia sentcd by Ham until he n«,iv, —ott.t6^r6H84joises, an increase of .131,572 over 1883; 1,915,120 mules, an increase of "43,047; 13,501.206 miloh cows, an increase of 375 521; 29,046,101 oxen and other cattle, an increase of 1,000,024; 50,626,626 sheep, an increase I of 1,389,335; 44.20O.8C3 swine, an increase of 930,807. These figures would indicate that farmers consider it more profitable to raise oxen and other cattle and sheep than to raise swine, and are devoting more attention to that class of stock. The same re; ort, giyos the average vvages for farm laborers at $8 58 which is nearly double what they ropoived thirty years tigo. The wages vary considerably in localities, and it is a noteworthy fact that, while in purely agricultural states the wages of the farm laborer averages but $13 67 and board per month, in stales where manto public education and tb provide for the more complete endowment and support of colleges for the advancement of scientific attdtedustria) education. The Benate took up for consideration the house pleuro-pneumonia bill Mr. Coke of Texas spoke etrimgly against the bill in its present shape, as it included all communicable diseases whatever, which he said would plate all cattle south oi Virginia at the mercy of the commissioner ot agriculture. This measnre went over, and the bill fer the relief of Fitz John Potter was taken up. Mr. Bewell of New Jersey t>elng the first speaker, aud defending l'orter us a man and soldier. Mr, Wilson of Iowa followed, opposing the bill. After executive ses«lon the Senate adjourned. Housa—The morning hour was dispensed with and the House at 12:25 went into committee of the whole, Mr. Buckncr in the chair, on the postotike appropriation bill. The committee of the whole, by a vote of 117 to 45, struck out the clause limiting the salaries of postmasters io $4,000. An amendment offered by Mr. Horr increasing from 110,500,000 to $12,250,000 the appropriation for compensation to postmasters was lost, 74 to S9.

Divts says he was on hand about a quarter after 7, as is his custom, and at precisely 8 o'clock Leach came down to be present durtag the sweeping out of the wards. The man uer in which this work is always done is to have one of the prisoners sweep the dirt into a heap near the door of the ward when the turnkey enters to lock the cells, as well as to attend to anything else demanding attention from the authorities, the dirt being swept into ti>e corridor as the turnkey enters the ward.

'•I'm 'shamed to eat so much, sir,' he said at last, looking up with a blush ••but I never had s t t e h a g o o d - - d i a a w in my life, and I don't know when to stop." ••1 think that small frame of yours will warn you in t i m e , " laughed his companion,"and when you are through we will g o for our ride. ' " T h a t was a j b l e s s e d afternoon for Rob. For once in his life he was neither hungry nor cold. He strolled through green,' winding pathways, he saw t h e mimic lakes, the stretches of velvet sward; ho watched the sea liors at their sport and fed the deer with handful* of grass, H e entered into the childish sports with genuine, boyish glee, only laughing heartily when a sportive donkey gave him-a-toss-on the grass. Mr. Wyndham looked on with delight. "How would you like to see a real farm, Rob, with horses, and cows, and pigs, aud chickens?'' he asked as they walked back to the station. " I ' d just like it first r a t e , " said Rob, enthusiastically. r T v e heard boys as has been there say its the best plaice in the world." "And so it is, for boys at any r a t e , " answered Mr. Wyndham. " N o w , Rob, I have a proposition! to m a k e to you. You say you have no friends to miss you; if you choose to go home with me 1 will pay your expenses and you shail have a taste of life on the farm, if you wish to help me there are a thousand things you can Jearn to do that will help you to feel independent, and who knows but that you may fail so completely in love with the country that you will want to stay always. Tou must have I T n e w s u i t of clothes," he added, for Rob's eloquent face was sufficient answer to his proposal, aud we will leave for Vermont on the evening train. Two weeks passed and Rob found himself more and more,in love with his surroundings. Every morning when he awoke he ran to "the window to see if the picture he loved had not vanished in the night; the long, blue l a k e line white caps rolled landward over the seething waves of blue, Turning at last to go. he saw that the inky mass of clouds was settling lower, and already *~-vgiUxx£-iain was, falling ai:ro&L_fli&_ front of White Face, the great mountain king on th^ opposite shore. He started on a run across the tield3, through the scattering clumps of pines and along the level road, aud had reached the summit of a little hill near tke house, when he saw a thin column of blue smoke rolling up from the_r_oof. The house was a hundred yea/s old, drv as tinder and with this fearful gale blowing from the westward there was no possibility of saving it from destruction. Bob's heurt sank within him, and he started down the hill at a furious pace. He could see them all now; Mr. Wyndham, with his arms fuiof papers, rushing through the hall door. Aunt Lois distracted by wringing her hands, Tilly, the help, tugging awav at the small chest which held her small wardrobe, He scanned the group with anxious eye; ••Well. Hennery, 1 aoj sorry to find vou in this h x , " said the grocery man as he tiptoed into the dark room at the house of the bad boy, where he found him in bed, propped up with pillows, a there was a circon.—Wlum - Uw Tdgfrg: made witb'nand6.

' ~~ ~ Mr. Wyndham waiked sturdily across the platform, picking -- his dubio u s w a y through the crowd. Children were running to and for. dashing by on velocipedes, i,r leaning over tue rope balustrade to look into the water. The Battery was Hooded with the .morning sunshine: little boats curled here and there iutosnow-capped waves,~and the—dark mountain wall, beyond, with cloud and sunshine- chasing each other across its forehead. Then there was a run to the lake shore while the rest were asleep; the boimt'fnl lrtTPHk-fftst. spread in the vreat dining room; the chickens to feed; the horses to water, and long afternoons spent in coasting along the iak<? shore in Mr. Windham's little skiff, gathering strange, beautiful flowers and curious stones and mosses . Fay was not there, but far up where the ell joined the Stain building tongues of flame were licking at the moss-grown roof; and raising his eyes still highar he caught a glimpse of the tiny figure he sought, swinging leisurely in the hammocK ind. front of the garret window. They had all forgotten her, tbefr precious one, in the excitement of losing house and home. There was no time for explanation. Rob rlew past the wondering group and up the -stairway. Already the upper stairs were in flames on the side next to the main wall, and he saw that retreat by this route wasMmpossijsle. He rushed up the last harrow flignt, his plan rapidly maturing in his mind, and catching Fay from the hammock unbuckled the leathern belt by which it swung and fastened it securely around her waist. He remembered tq have seen a long coil ef rope which had been used for drying clothes in one corner of the room; in another moment he uad fastened it to the belt and tswung the frightened child from the window out into the air. He watched her progress with an anxious heart as the rough rone slid slowly through his fingers. Now she brushed the window cornice, novv^she swung helplessly, against the great elm that stood so near; then came the shout:—"She is safe, Rob: save yourself!" And Knotting the rope around _the_ head ppst of a huge old pallor on his face that was frightful. and a general look of goneness " Y o u r pa tells me you have been sick nearly a week. I thought things at the grocery were going along in solemn sort of a m a n n e r . JDonH hurt yott t o t a l k to-you does i t ? " and the groceryraan looked for a chair to sit down in. " N a w . i t don't h u r t , " said the bad bov, as he motioned to a chair, aud the groceryman sat down. "If talking would kill me I would have been dead long ago. By the way, I wishr^ you would hand me that mustard plaster. You will find it in the chair you are sitting o n , " and the boy smiled a sickly smile, while the groceryman got up as though ht was in"a hurry, and apologized for sitting on tiifi plaster. "No apology necessary," said t h e bad boy. "When anybody comes to see me they are welcome to the best we have got. A soft answer turneth away^wf&th, and a mustard plaster covereth a multitude of pneumonia," and Hennery applied the plaster to his chest, ^nd ^ asked the groceryman to hand him a box "of pills on the table. The groceryman handed him a box of pills and a glass of water, and he took a_ small handful of pills a n d a swallow of water, smacked his lips and said. " A h ! A nectar fit for the god&.

A comparatively 6axall crowd assembled when the examination of Jud Qroucb and Dan Holcomb was resumed on the 18th inst. The proceedings opened by the prosecution announcing that they had a little more testimony to adduce, and Edward A. Angevin, was called to the staud. lie testified that he arrived at the Crouch house at 9 o'clock on the morning of the murder, and saw spots of blood about the size «f a nickle on the Hour near Henry White's bed. Holcomb was there at the lime of his discovery. There was no pool of blood, but a few small splashes upon the carpet and on the bed clothing. He said the heel cf the track found ovrt Bide measured ~>i inches by 2% inches, but the length could not be deterunui d. In answer to u question from Frazer the witness taid: UI am positive there were drops of blood on the carpet. I don't guets anything about it." The prosecution announced that their testimony was all in and the defense called the names of several witnessed uinung whom was Herrington, none of whom responded. Dr. W. A. Gibson was then called, and took the staud, bis testimony being merely a repetitionof much that has already U wit tiered. He told of his experiments with Brown's clothing to ascertain the distance of the pistol from the coat when the shot was lired. He had nothing farther to do with the clothing as he returned it immediately to Brown. * A long discussion arose as to whether Herringtcn, * bo is eontined in the Ingham county jail, could be taken therefrom, but the ptosecu lion announced that every available means would be einploj ed to obtain all the witnesses needed by the defense, and that the people would willingly render all assistance possible to clear up the awful mystery. • The examination was adjourned until 9:30 the next morning. The opinion prevails that jthfi-delayjffas premeditateu and that the rebuttal testimony ia far from being as strong as -claimed by the defense. JU£J)EEEI!1SE-AT WORK.

On a recent aftornoou a team stood harnossed to a li^ht \v;t<*<>n in a stublu in Fifty-srixth Street, near Seventh Avenue. The stable U said to have cost more money than any other in this country. Its appuuranue'does not belie the statement. Tho horses were blanketed. They stood on the clean, matted floor, with their feet close together and their heads han^in^ in a sleepy manner. Ihrao. otliex._imia&i w e r t drowsing in their spacious boxes. A a ttoothc bell struck a sharp note. EvQtJJp hor&e in the stable pricked his M i l and seemed imbued with new life. Two bull-dogs jumped in front of the massive doors that swing on loO-pound hinges. William, bettor known as •Boeton, who has charge of the horses, Remarked, "Here he is.'1 A side door opened, and a handsome m a n who has grown gray in New York walked noiselessly in the direction of tfce team. The bull-dogs bounded playfuUyby his side. •rTake off tho blankets," said t h e m a n . / The blankets were pulled off. The horses were Edward and a youn^ bay mare. T h e man stepped to the horses' heads. The mare rubbed her nose slowly up and dow-a her master's face and appeared to -kiss him. T h e horse rubbed his head against his master, also seeming to kiss him, and then, when he turned away, snapped-with a little show of jealousy at the marc's •neck. Hearing the rattle of the harness, the man looked around, remark-. icg, " H e ' s full of fun." At the same time be places pieces of sugar in each of the horses' mouths. "Mr. Work, I hear that you-have 'developed some remarkable traits in j o u r horses." "Nothing particularly worth speaking about. 1 have horses aud am kind to them, and tliey.are fond of me. -There's Dick Ewiveller. He had the -reputation of being cross when I got him. Now see. Dick!" The horse heard the call and endeavored to get to his master. "If I should call him when he w a s hitched to a wagon he would wheel ^around aud turn the wagon over to get to_jne^ All 1 have to do when out with Dick and anybody tries to pass us is to let the lines rest lightly on his_ back, and away he goes in the lead. I never urge my horses. That mare, Regina, hitched with Edward, is very last. She is a five-year-old. I shall hold her back until she is six, and then I will let her show what she can d o . " " I heard that you had a mate that always joined in the circle around the fire and inhaled tobacco smoke over your shoulder." - — " T h a t was old. Kate. Whenever she heard us talking she would pound away in her box, and kick something loose if she was not released. When at liberty she would walk up and poke her head in the circle aud listen quietly to the conversation." "Do you believe that she understood anything that was said?" "She appeared to. I think that horses understand more than most people give them credit for. Now, there is a horse in that box yonder that is very fond of the smoke from a cigar. If you were to light one and go in his box ho would place his head over yours and take in all the smoke he possibly could. If you were to leave the box he would follow you as long-as he could get a whiff of smoke." " T h e horses are restless and want to gel out. _William will show you tho stable a n d give any desired information." The huge thousand-dollar doors opened silently and the horses started for the road. " I have lived with many men who owned horses," said William, a h u t there goes the only real horse lover I ever saw. They follow him all over the place like children, l i e is kind to all animals. One day he saw these bulldogs bounding over the tan bark in the walking ring on the other side of the stable. 'Dothey like to play in there?' *Yes,' I replied. 'Then always leave the door opeu for them,' he said. " H e never overworks his horses.

Accounts and nook-keeping. --- - * It is a maxim among the Dutch that "no one is ever ruined who keeps good aci-ounts." While we may not entirely a<rree with this, there is nothing more certain than that, a carefully kept account will materially aid one to stop iinancial leaks, which in the end might load to great difficulty, if not to bankruptcy. Then; is certainly much difficulty in keeping accurate accounts respecting the protit and loss of so uncertain and complicated a busings as farming: but it is easy to keep a record of money received and paid out, and even this is not done by many. In regard to the expenses of a farm,, an account of t h e m j s perfectly practicable, and ought to be regularly recorded. Hy examining these a farmer is enabled to ascertain the nature aud extent of the expense he has incurred in ll*e various operations' of agriculture, and to discover what particular measures or what general system contributes to protit or occasions lo^s. To record pecuniary transactions is not the only ob'ect lobe attended to in the accounts of a farmer, It is necessary TO~hirvcr-aTi -irrrmial account of the live stock, and their value; of the i;uautityvof hay, grain or other produce on hand; or" the value of implements, and all other property in which capital is invested. An account should be opened with each lield, charging to it the amount expended on it, and giving it credit for crop returned. Of course such accounts can not vbe keptwith perfect accuracy. If a certain amount of fertilizer, for instance, is put on a lield, and it is charged against it as expense, it will be proper to credit the lield with the unexpended fertilization after the crop is removed—that is, to estimate of how niuch more value the fie d is than it was before the account with it commenced. This requires good judgment, but the proper eonclu-' sions can bo arrived at very nearly if tho work is undertaken with a determination to do it as well as may be. In no other way can a farmer make even a reasonable calculation as to what crops are best for him to raise than by keeping accounts with each one. There will be differences in different years, depeuding ou the amount of heaf, moisture, etc. All these things must be considered, The experience of one year in agriculture is not to be considered conclusive, any more than with a merchant or a manufacturer. Sonic may say it takes too much time. So say some in otlrer departments of business, and they make failures in conrsequence. But it will not take so much tiimv-after all, as one may think. The calculations will mostly be made while engaged a£ ordinary labor, for the thoughts do not always follow the plow or the hoe, and to make t h e entries is all that will be lettrto be d o n e . = _ 1 ^ u f C b a l a n d W o o d , ) we propose Such accounts should always be A*-"-'1' • •-•• ' . _ All the latest fabrics and designs in opened with stock, charging their, first cost, and co-d, of care and feeding, and giving credit for whatever is produced, be it labor, milk, wool or increase in number or value. The keeping of such, accounts will prove of service other than we have men!toned by promoting habit* of regularity.

"If ye have asecretsiu, that sin shall She was very proud; her whole family had been proud; not less so because her branch of it had also been very poor. When the estates of the old German stock had melted slowly,away, until at last the two scions of the old race, her father and uncle, had abandoned tlrtdr empty rank and title for the more substantial acquirements of the New World,, they did not leave behind them their pride in the ancestral name; they cherished an unspoken hope that one day the) might go back to the glories of that ancient race. But this d-uy never c?„nie. One brother died before his hard struggle with the new life had" brought success, leaving behind his wife and their little daughter, Elinor, to light their battle as best they might. But Bertliold, the elder, had prosper ed from the first. His touch, like that of Midas, seemed to turn.every_tMTjj^-to gold, lie married a wealthy woman as proud as himself. Ho imported from abroad and held great power at homo His coffers tilled unceasingly year by year. But ho did net uow talk of going across seas'to the old home. "I'll leave that for t h e l a d , " ho said. '•I'm too old now. I've got out of the old life. But the lad, our Bertram —ah! he shall have back the old lands and tho castles and the forests, and live Ir^e.a prince, as his forefathers lived before him. No need for him to slave as his father has!" But the fact was that the old man had immersed his soul in schemes of gain untill he could not live without the excitement on which he had fed so ^ l°ng ?n y more than the opium-eater umd^tKirdark aee led the va»of thought, |j»u'.lfvo_ without his drug," And he •"•-• •'- knew, if ho did not acknowledge, that would grimly; "if you change your mind between now and then, come and let me know. If not, never come into my presence again, living or dead. Your allowance will go on as usual until Christmas. If that prove your wedding- day, no Ucyynr on ha.l, day will find you out! Though ye kayo hid it from every human eye. yea, though it be buried in the bowels of the earth or sunk fathoms deep below tho billows of tho sea, that sin shall, rise to meet you -ace.

She went u p the broad staircase to her own room- "No, I do not need anythiBg'11 she raid to her attentive maid. " I only wish to be alone and quiet. My head is not feeling quite righl.'' Then she locked her door, and, wrapping herself «in a heavy shawl, lay down on aJow couch, for the felt faint and chilly. Miss Van Alton had never felt herself • a-ekraer. She owned a handsome pew in the fashionable Episcopal church; she gave generously to all popular charities and benevolent enterprises; ^ho might always be seen, faultlessly alti?ed and faultlessly attentive, at church services; she observed all the the~rank of the Old World waulu" re quire.of him a life that would bo intolerable to his present nature. So he •atislied himself with ambitious dreams of his son1s future greatness. But, .strangely enough, all this failed to impress young Bertram. On the contrary, he was mdiilereut to all the supposed attractions of rank and title, and was quite positive that he had a much better time than' his grandfathers had. The sturdy sense of independjenc" natural' tu the /American spirit seemed to have come to young-lfeftram as his birthright. -. "Whati#-the use of all this ado over ancestry and titles?1' he said. "I don't care for it, father; it seems folly to think of going back to a laud of strangers to buy up a lot of musty, moldv, brokeu-dowu old capers' just btrcrrase our grandfathers once inhabited tltgm. .As for being called by th^iir old titles for the sake of submitting to their old rules and rulers, why, 1 prefer to be a king in this country. Every man is a king here, free and independent, if he chooses to be so." "Some day we wi!l go there—}-ou will Bee it all, then you will think better of it," the old man would say. But the mother, more impatient, would say, sharply: "Tho lad has no pride, his blood has turned to water! Is it nothing, then, to be almost ro\al, to sit with kings?" Yet Bertram was prou«J enough, too, in his way, and headstrong as Well. But his self-will never was strong enough to lead him into any act for which hi* pride need blush. So when he fell madly in love with the pretty daughter of his landlady during his last year at college, and made up his mind that life would be a folorn disappointment withouther. ho straightway aiked'herto marry him and on his arrival home told his parents whatdie had done. "Marry your landlady's daughter!" thundered the enraged father "ihe lowborn daughter of a charwomanl" "Oh! no, father! they are very respectable, well-educated people, I assure you. Surely you would not expect my choice to fall otherwise-." "Respectable! well educated!n aueered his mother. "Is that all that the grandson of a:"duke"asks for in his wife? Trho is-"srtiu?-Wxro W€xefer-&c>OiTie^-TrrhTitis her father?" "Her father is dead, !;• was a respectable tradesman of some sort —a leatherdealer or something in that, line, I believfi; At any rate, he need-not affect tho ca^tj. He has left a daughter as lovely and accomplished as anv man, duke"or king, nee d ask to,wed." "You shall not "dent, you mad boy!" shrieked his mother. " I wid not have it so! I urill n-it, I say! Bali! would you take the smell of leather into the Queen's (irawing-room? You might bettejr-a3lc the daughter of the maa who ' 'She is good enough for rue,, mother, and this is a matter in which I cannot allow another to choose for me. She has_promised to marry me, and I am proud to make her my wife. I am sorry to have displeased you an*J mv father, but when vou have seen J h e r - " "Seen her!" cried his father; "she shall never step foot over threshold of mine, nor will I'ejcwr' look upon her face! Turn away from your old father and mother and break their hearts if you will, but remember if you do that you turn away forever. Marry that girl, and not a dollar of mine shall ever buy bread for her, nor will I ever own you again'as son of mine!" "I am sorry, father, that this should be your decision. But no honorable man conld abandon the woman he loves only to gratify his parents' prejudices. She will be my wife on Christmas day if_we arc both alire.M be poorer than you!" "Then good-bye- -father—motherforever! I shall not change my mind!" And with a white, stern lace, Bertram Van Alton left his father's house to return no more. "The lad wi l think better of it; he will come baci<!" the old f:.ther said. "Surely my poy cannot forsake his home, his parents, all that might be his, for a pretty face that he could forget in a month!" said the mother. But Christmas day-Urougltfc th^m^i. telegram: "I was married at ten o'clock this morning.- Good- bye! BKIITTIAM,1' Then Madam Van Alten threw up her anus with a cry that died to a gurgle in her throat, and fell heavily to the lioor. "He has broken her heart!" cried lh_o_ old man, pitejj>usly_,Jjut_tho doctors •called it apoplexy. At any rate sh»T never spoke again, and two or three days later was borne away to the burialvault that had long been waiting for an occupant. Thii son was not sent fcr, though in a closed carriage, both he and his wife followed the long funeral cortege to the grave. After this, old. Bertliold Van Alten grew more stern and proud and bitter than ever before. His ambition was gone, ki» health failed, and he grew peevish and fretful. He had always'been kind to his brother's widow and her child-*nd provided-j for their necessities, but now he sent for them to occupy his home and openly declared Elinor hu3 heiress. She wag a true Van Alten, he said, soul and body. She would do honor to the old name. So the years went by, and tho old man grew more cheerful and gentle. .Elinor was like his daughter— attentive; kind, aud even-tempered. She had plenty of offers of marriage, but all were quietly rejected. "That's right, Elinor ; I want,you to wear a coronet and have ..your picture hung besido yourgrandmother\s in the old gallery," her uncle would say. ' Her mother died ; her uncle >va.s an invalid. Elinor was no longer a young girl. "Never mind," her uncle would" say, "mv days are almost ended^ then you shall go back to your fatherland and live in Ihc-orctTialls and revive the old lTpne-'aljd be the fairest and noblest Tady of them all." And theTaint color would creep into Elinor's cheek with the quicker beating of her heart and her blue eyes look prouder than ever. But when the last sickness racked him and tho" hour of death crept nearer, tho father's heart longed for his son. "Perhaps1 I was wrong," he said. 'T ought to have made allowance for my boy—my only child ! Perhaps he is suiiermg now. You havo been m y good, faithful daughter, Elinor ; I shall not forgot that, and you shall have your reward. But there is enough for both—plenty for both. And-then, you know, the title belongs to him, Elinor ; you could not hold that." And Elinor assented, with her heart like lead. Was she, then, to miss the goal of her ambition at last-?' Then one night came when Berthold Van Alten was to see no other earthly daylight dawn. "I want to see my boy!" he cried. "I must do justice to my boy! Quick, Elinor! get a pen and ink and write hat I tell you!" Elinor obeyed. Aftor-tho brief form of a will had been written, he said: "New, to my dear nieco,Elinor, I boqueath one-third of all that I possess, she_ to choose in what form the legacy shall be paid. Everything else I leave to my son, Bertram, with" his.' father's dying love and blessing. "Now call the servants and give me the pen." With a face like death, Elinor rang tho bell.then placed tho pen in the cold fingers, already stff, almost hopless. TTKa1s1rT[le_TncTeT=^- h i g u er—rrow=—— Elinor held him on her arm, the nurse and servants'stood at tho door; he grasped tho pen, he moved it feebly, the ink re-fused to flow, his lingers relaxed— Ettnor gently lowered him, but the eyes opened in a last effort. "Restitrrtion— Elinor—" he grasped, and then Elinor gathered up the papers and Left the dead man to his rest. When his death was made known, the dis inherited son came to look upon his father's dead face. Elinor re_cfii£_d him gently, even affectionately. He heard the will read with unmoved countenance. "Did he speak of me?" he asked Elinor- "Yes; he murmured of you just before he died, and seemed to wish to have me do something for you. You must let me divide with you, Cousin Bertram. A part of the legacy I promised should go to reclaim theoldestates in Germany." "O! yes; the old dream!"he answered with a short laugh. "He sacrificed everything he h a f to that. No. cousin* keep the fortune and let it go as he. directed. I think it could bring no blessing with it to me. Good-bye." and Bertram Van Alten went out to the world he had chosen. Soon after, he#received a check for five thousand dollars, "with the love of his Cousin Elinor." This was all a yoar ago, and now Elinor was about to close up her business matters and seek the place and position for which she had yearned all her life. "At last! at la?t!" she had cried, cxultingly, «only this morning, and now she lay shivering iu the June sunshine, like a criminal about to be executed. " I don't believe,it jwaa a sin !" she cried fiercely, at last; as she rose and paced areola the room "It was only a dying man's half delirious whim —and he did not sign it. He always meant me To have the money ; he rjie&nt _me to ,kold the old name that his son rejected. Why should I allow the chance words of some halfcrapd fanatic to feel like a guilty wretch? I will not be to silly. It is only that 1 am nervous and have been worried with these business matters!" Her face was hoL now: her eyes burned, her temples throbbed. She plunged her f j.c« and hands into a basin of cold water; then she rang for her maid ami made a-u elaborate toilet. AH that afternoon she rode and made calls, and in thy evening attended a brilliant ball. But it was all in vain. Above all the music and babble of voices, she heard those words, "if ye have a secret Sdo, that Kin shall iiudvyou out!" And all night, after she went home, she lay with wide open eyes, seeming to see, as ation,"Repent! repent! for the kingdom of Heaven is at hand!" "The kingdom of Heaven is at kand!" She woadered what that meant. What could it mean except that at the side of Life stood Death, That at any hour she might be called upon to stand face to face with the man whose dying wish she had disregarded, whose dying love and blessing she had withheld from his soa, while that eye that belield her secret sin should look upon her in judgment. _ Yes, combat it as she might, ehemust admit herself te be a base usrper of another's birthright. How would she dare take her ill-gotten wealth and trust herself upon that sea, whose countless fathoms could not hide her sin from Hinrwho doeth judgment! All these thoughts crowded upon her soul with pitiless force. Then, for the lirst time, returned the memory of the other words: "Ho who doeth justice, showoth mercy also, and from the repentant sinner He will not turn away!'1 With a long breath, like a timid child, she turned on her piliow and sle.pt;'^' The next day she sent^iofner cousin. Her determination.-was'taken, and the weight of a mountain seeme'4 removed from-her'soul. When Bertram came she showed him the paper his father had tried to siga,—and told—him—tb«- One Specimen. Jackson Patriot. Qf the cords of letters Prosecuting Attorney Hewlett has received from all partS'of the country since tho Crouch mjarder this perhaps is the funniest: "Dear Sir—I have a confession to make in connection with the horrible Crouch tragedy. Years ago, when I was young and living at horns, I became acquainted with Jacob D. Crouch. I loved him, but he did not reciprocate. My loyo turned to hatred I swore to have revenge. I swore to kill him, for nothing but blood would ^ia-tisix, me. ,1 have waited all theafT'years for my rev«nge and I iiad *t when I saw my victim's^ writhing in the agony of death. Then 1 was content I camo to Jackson and bribed Foy to help me and with Foy's help I did the deed: and a part of my plan was for Foy to-make a confession and to \uy it onto some one so that it would make more trouble for tho family, but my conscience troubled me day and night till I made this eonfefsion. After I'left mv viciims it was j o t hard * / lovingly of whole, bitter truth, without reservey and asked him to forgive her. ' ;/ "My dear Elinor," he saidy- taking her trembling hand in his, "there is but little to forgive. This paper if worth nothing' whatever - in the law. The money is all yours just the same as if this had never been written, and I shali not disturb you'in its possession. [-But 1 am glad, beyond words to express, that my poor father forgave me before he died ; that he thought me at last." "I cannot keep your fortune from you any longer, Bertram. I shall take the proper steps to restore it,to you at once. That ie justice, whether it is law or not." Bertram sat for a, fuw moments in deep thought. "I tell you what. I'll consent to, Elinor," he said, at length; "if you will reverse the order of the wishes in that pappr, I will take the third, selecting this homestead property and its belongings, and vou shall take the tUlUalfftlui and carry out my poor father's life-long, wfch, as you intended. You could be happy there; 1 could not. Believe me, this is best and will make me happiest, and then," he added, laughingly, "if you are ever in want of an heir of the oh! estates, I will send my son, Berthold, over to unite them with the Van Alten title." _ . mm The Heroic Mother.

If I lived under the. burning sun of tk» equator it wouldbe ^rpteasrire to-me to think that there were human being* on the other side of the world who regarded and respected me; I could- not and would-not live if I were alone upon the earth and cut off from the remembrance of my fellow creatures. It is not that a man has occasion to fall .back_upon. the kindness of ,his irleads. Perhaps4ie-may- never experience the necessity of doing so; but we are governed by our .imaginations, and they stanJ thereas solid bulwark against alHhe evils of life. Friendship should j>o formed with persons, of all ages ajjd conditions, and with both sexes. I nave a friend who i? a bookseller, to whom I have been very civil, and who would do anything to serve me; and I have two or three small friendships among person in much humbler walks of life, who, I verily believe, would do me a conhdcraule kindness according to their means. I am for a fiank explanation with friends in case "of affronts. They sometimes save a perishiog friendship, and even place, it upon a firmer basis than at first; buj, secret-discontent must always end badly.. .. • — ^ . , . •-" A Leap. Y e a r Episode.

A letter from Will JenfcilU, dttel at Bear Lake, Mar. 28th, gayg; "We have had two weeks ge»4 sugar weather. Have been workisf i l the bush every day, and hare m a t e ' about 200 pounds of nice sugar. IL is rather warm now and the sap dofli not run well. There is scarcely any snow to be seen and no frost in tht ground; leeks are up three ineh«i high.

H*T« fifteen acres chopped, ready to log and burn. If it continues as warm as now shall sow my spring wheat next week.". The Howell Republican thinks we should have known that "it would be illegal to tax the people of Up wall for the proposed $5,000 to aid in building a court house," but thinks it could be raised by subscription before it will be wanted. Our esteemed cotemporary (or its legal prompter) expects us to be. wiser than the Board of Supervisor* or the Howell attorney -who drafted the resolution for them, providing thai it migh bo raised "by tax or otherwise." And we are credibly informed tn*4 the resolution as first drawn requiredia# proposition to be submitted to people of'.Jj-eweTl at their village election, in Marchiast.

The battted mob enraged at the obstacles thus thrown in their way, attacked the court house ivlth the fury of demons. They rolled all manner of combustibles into the courthouse entrance and to them touched a match. An hour later the records of a century of the. County Auditor, Clerk and Treasurer and Recorder were in ashes. The loss is incalculable, and the handsomest building in Cincinnati is virtually destroyed.

Afu-r half an hour spent on important business, Mr. Anderson of Kansas introduced a Jolnfeeolutlon which was referred to the committee on ways and means, for a final adjournment of the two houses of Congress on Monday, the second day of June. The bill to relieve certain soldiers of the late war who deserted and subsequently enlisted and served honorably to the close of the war from the charge of desertion, was taken up. It was opposed on the ground that a similar bill had been passed, and because this bill would Incidentally relieve the class who had deserted to secure additional bounty. The bill was finally allowed to go over until next Friday. At the night session of the House 22 pension bills were passed, including one of 150 per month to the widow of the late Gen. James B. Steadman, and also one to M,rs. Sarah £. £.

In a little dilapitated house in a remote corner of the great city she sat a t her sewing, this child-woman of whom 1 am about to tell you. Her work.was tine and carefully done, but the dainty linen and costly lace, contrasted strongly with the coarse, patched dross of the worker, and with the Bcanty famishing of the small apartment. And as she stitched away HO diligently she paused occasionally to dash away the tears that came unbidden to her eyes. Twilight was approaching, and still she sat a t her s e e i n g until a faint little cry was heard in one corner of the room; and rising, she wont to the low bed of straw and quilts, and took up a baby of fourteen months, but sp pale and thin and hollow eyed, that it might easily haye passed for only'half that age. With a tear she pressed it to her heart, «vnd turning to the smouldering lire, stirred the coals into a glow, wrapped the child's scanty clothing closer aboutnt, ami" setting h e r on the floor before the lire, resumed her work. She had just finished .when an uncertain step was heard on the stairs, and hurriedly putting away her work, she took her babe in berlafnis and opened the door. ^—9 ~ He 3anre in despaSwentry. He was a young man not more than twenty-seven or eight years of age, and would have been quire"good looking if his face haxb± not been unnaturally flushed withjdrlnk.

"1 am not as heartless as you think me. Do you suppose I would rob a sick child?" and ho went out into the dark^. ness. Ho wended his way to the greiu house where the work was to bo deli'. - eired, and received in payment a bright silver dollar. Eagerly he took it. "How many comforts Mary and Bessie, shall have from that Bessie shall have lier milk and crackers, and Mary shall have some bread and some meat and a little tea, and then there will be a few pence left. I believe I'll go <m or to Green's and get one glass to steady my nerves a little, I r s very eold and I certainly need it," he muttered and entering the dramshop on the corner, he called for a glass of rum. "Not one more, Harvey J ones, without the cash," said the baitender promptly. "Here, 1 have money to pay for it, said he, extending tho dollar in a trembling hand. The liquor seller set down the glass of poison a n d took the silver dropping it into hi3 till with a pleas5 ng nlink.

I have traveled all day and c a n ' t iind a day's work. 1 can do nothing but to go to destruction, anil tho sf3ouer the better.'' "Harvey, - Harvey,, dear uusband, don't talk so,."' pleaded his companion, taking oue trembling hand in Her owu. "You know, dear, why they dare not trust you.

" he muttered, adding, "Is there anything for s u p p j r ? " "There is a little bread and a drawing of tea," said she, putting tho dishes on the little table and setting the tea Jo draw. "There d e a r , " said she a few moments later, "our supper is ready. Come and e a t . " ZZL- " And so you expected change, did vou?

They talked long together, tenderly, lovingly, of the past and the future, till finally Bessie awoke with a ery and held out her little hand for the cup of milk which sat on the table. Mary took it and held it to her lips while she drank long and eagerly, and then sank back into quiet, restful sleep. The. morning dawned c l e a r ^ a n d bright, and Mary prepared their breakfast, with a heart tilled with thankfulnes "Now, M a r y , " said he after breakfast, " W h a t a m I to do?

Fmdtng the-door locked she pounded on it with her list, then went to the door of the junior room, and linally tried to kick it open. Luckily the door was strong. She next picked up a club and made a circuit of the school-hoiue. I thought she was going to smash in a window, but reflecting that if she did I wouldn't need to pay for it, I gave myself no uneasiness on that score. She finally dropped the club and left. Next day she was washing somewhere, and J o h n rather sheepishly took his place alone. " J o h n , " said I, "you left the school without permission yesterday. I c a n ' t allow that, you know." So I gave him a thrashing, compared to wnich the former had been a mere pastime. J o h n gave up thoughts of home, and suuk his head dn his arms on the desk, evidently thinking that there was no royaTroad to learning. When school was dismissed, that night I asked Dicks to stay in. When we were alone in the school-room I said: " J o h n , what did I thrash you for yest e r d a y ? " "For pulling Willie's hair." "Correct. What did I thrash you foi to-day?" s £ o r leaving school." "Well, partly. The most interesting portion was for the little skirmish you and your mother had around the schoolhouse.

Perhaps if I had some milk for her it would strengthen her and make her fell better.

Suddenly there was a step behind, a hand_on his .s.houl(ier-apxt-turning he saw an old cotnrade.-Phillip Keith, who had been at the drain-shop when he left it. "1 say.

To-day he is a sober, tomperute, man, and net only a tenaperate^rnjan- but~tv temperance man. - T o m Green has los-t more than one c u s t o m e r through tho •influence of Harvev Jones. For,, once free from.the cause himself, he set about the task of saving others, and he has formed a tempera.tee association ot his old comrades, of which he is the chosen leader, and their iniluence extends outwar'd and onward in an unceasing warfare against the dreadful traffic. Mary is a happy, blooming wife, and Bessie a rosy laughing girl of two sum mors. Other little ones have come to gladden their home, but they do not need to cry for bread, nor shrink when father's step is heard in the hall, and Harvey often tells his wife that all these changes are traceable to her silver dollar.

It would be very bad policy to.whip some boys, while there are others that .are just spoiling for a good, sound thrashing. I taught a school once where I had for assistant teacher a young lady whose rule was of the mildest possible description. One day she came to tho main room and said that J o h n Dicks persister.tly refused to do anything that lie was lold. , I said, "Mis- Smith, 1 think if you Were to 11-e a little kindness with John ViVu wolTtd 'get 'along better with him." !H i n to be:i" kind to the pupils as I can; \ 1 i::tve never whipped John, although i.e is iM'Miiv always misbehavthe stock I keep constantly on If there is any more kicking at the doors and marching around the schoolhouse, I'll take it out on you. -¥ou maydo just as you like about it, but if I were in your shoes I would try-to learn that sweet song they sing Friday afternoon nior department: " 'Oh, how I love my teacher dear!' —"If you learn that instead of tryin>. to shoot peas in the mouths of the sing^ ors* and if you practice the song at (TTprne, I believe vou will have an easier time of it. Y"ou must remember that marching three times around the walls of this school-house won't bring them down like the walls of Jericho, and it will be better for vou to go to Jericho than come back hern if there is.another exhibition." We had no more trouble with John after that. He was forced to turn what mind he had to study, as time hung heavy on -his hands when he was not allowed to kick, pinch, and otherwise moiesi the other children. He astonished every one at the end "of the-^erm by.passing the examination and entering the senior department.

No recent phenomena has~more puzzled astronomers than the remarkable appearance of the atmosphere as observed after sunset and before sunrise during the—last brilliant glows live months, have been seen These in all parts of the habitable world. They were first noticed on the 28th of August, and they may still be seen, both morning and evening,- when the state of the atmosphere is favorable. It is well known, in fact, that on a clear day the matter by which the appearance is produced may be seen around the sun, extending "to a distance of wenty or thirty degrees. The phenomena have been ascribed: 1. To watery vapor in the atmosphere. 2. To meteoric matter through which the earth has been supposed to be passing; and 0. To the volcanic eruptions of J a v a -tttrrirAraska.x The first conjecture has been disproved by the spectroscope. The second may be said to be rendered extremely improbably by the long continuance of the glow's. The earth crosses the meteoric streams of August and November in a few days at most, "but the pres'ent phenomena" have al-...-"" ready lasted more than five months. The volcanic hypothesis is received with most favor, and we^^niust either accept it or admit t h a t f h e true explanation rcmains^to'l)o discovered. In the Inst nuniefof the Sidereal Messenger, I Jxxto briefly stated "some objections to this theory, as follows: vNo' similar results—at least to any g r e a t \ extent—had been known to follow vol- \ canic eruptions. If the matter started from J a v a on the 26th of August, its rate of motion through the atmosphere till its appearanco in Brazil was 109 ^ miles an hour. Or, if we assume that-^ the appearance in South America^^aa_ derived from the Alaska outburst, we have the additional improbability that results of a charactei^beforc unknown following v o l c a m c e r u p t i o n s in opposite hemispheres a t nearly the same time. ^Again, what force could have n^wntained this volcanic matter at 30 great an elevation during a period of several m o n t h s ?

The Arab —and in this nomenclature, besides the natives of Arabia proper, all the inhabitants of the northern and half of the eastern portion of Africa are to be comprehended—is a singular race. Wild aud feiociuua, like the savages of J the far west, the Arabs are endowed with a keener intellect and a highly nervous temperament, a characteristic •wkich has impressed itself upon the £pft£J*fc nation by reason of contact. IWflity, Jsowever, the aborigines of ^ J n P j M * Who are stolid, content with f tortpNp*tt4 the gratification of their fjftf/UraTWfints, the Arabs are ever restless and aggressive, and prey upon their fellow-beings. Although very dark in complexion, they are not negroes; their hair is coarse but smooth. Their habitations are principally on tfet borders of the streams, and, in the jafttftor countries they sink wells, where WMtieftbUX and cluster around them, JmrmHtf villages and towns, their houses ejoptiflting of mud walls and thatched, •jonical roofs. Living in a state of nature, their wants are but few, consequently they are not forced to extra exertion to fljjpply them. They live on the simplest diet Their staple food is.darru millet, which they pulverize and make into bread. ^ V e r y little animal food is used by thsmT Dates and camels' milk constitute the luxury indulged in by the well to do among theni. Their agriculture is theretore confined to the raising of millet and a few other farinaceous articles, such as beans, backla, —or In pens, e t c . in the _iaost primitive manner. In the matter-of raiment they are, owing to the nature of the climate, in a state of almost complete nudity, only a «carf teing wound lightly around their loins. Their other occupations consist ln_collecting ostrich feathers, tusks of elephants, senna, and gum-arabic; the latter is indigenous to the country^ and ls~e~xtra^d~TfonTth"B acacia arapict*,a small tree which forms vast forests in the hottest regions of Africa. AH these sink, however, into insignificance compared with the profits" in slaves, in telling which they are mainly engaged.

The introduction of Mohammedanism Among the children of the desert did not contribute toward their moral and social advancement. Indeed, wherever Mohammedanism made its appearance it has exercised a most pernicious influence over its votaries, mope particularly among the Arabs. It killed all traces of civilization among the amient Egyptians, for which they were justly celebrated and-to which the Greeks lowed their progress. But this religion suited Arab proclivities to a nicety; it was simple in creed and ministered to their brutal passions. Divine unity and belief in Mohammed •Its the true apostle of (iod were the only ..essential requirements. It encouraged polygamy and promised sevent'y-two I nouns in the life to come. It moreover preached aggression and aggrandize-, ment, made it a virtue to war against 'unbelievers, and upheld the enslave- • mftnt, of captives. It not only legalized their wonted vocation, but opened a iregular market for the disposal of •their chattels wherever Islamism prevailed. The peculiar construction of society among the Mohammedans is such as to render slave service indispensable! Every household naturally requires domestic service, both for personal attendance and menial duties. But seeiu-" sion being one of the requirements of the Koran, Mohammedan women are precluded from entering into such service, because they would thereby come Into contact with the male portion of a family* which, according to their religous idea of propriety, is unlawful,- As to men who are not near relatives, they are strictly excluded from the harems, or the ap&rtroonta of women. Hence Circassians are employed for personal attendance, and the blacks for menial service. Shiver being ~a staple commodity among the Mussulmans, Mohammedanism greatly tended to stimulate the ardor of the Arabs of Soudan to extra exertion, and the consequence has bee,n that the negroes of Central Africa hav\j been the sufferers. Frequent incursions are made into their territories and hordes are captured, who are either employed to till the ground for the benefit of their ^captors or sold into slavery, both men and women. Such was the character and condition of Soudan prior to Mehemeil Ali's conquest of Kgypt, and it lias not undergone much-ohange-sinee,—N. Y+ Herald.

Mr. Hewlett asked the witness a few questions, to which he answeredaud -expl&taeu the time and manner of his receiving the news of ofl the murder.

Tffhieh/ fey jut \n r WRumors of Plain field business thrift £iad so often reached the DISPATCH sanctum, we determined at length to send a messenger out to gle?n some particulars for the benefit of our many yeaders who are ple%sed always to know of the prosperity of their worthy neighbors. Accordingly our reporter took a circuitous route, dining with a hospitably farmer, J. E. Mapes, of North Stqckbridge, after a pleasant chat with whjom he proceeded toward the object ot his visit. He tound Plainfield tp.be an enterprising little town of about 200 population, two churches, a hotel, four stores, millinery, harness, wagon and blacksmith shops, planing mill, large cooper shops, and a line roller flouring , diately xhili,.stave factory, etc. _ The first store m this place was built by the late Rice A, Beal, but was soon abandoned as that gentleman remqved to Dexter, and the real founder of~ the yrHage was-^rom^—Topping who erected a store and commenced business in 1853. Ten years afterwards he hazarded a stave factory, and tbi,s scheme proving profitable .was followed by a grist mill, whose shrill whistle summoned wheat'and -corn for the crushing wjieels within. /This mill was destroyed, by fire, but J do not approve, and which, in dgement will greatly injure an<J retard the temperrnce cause. For this reason I respectfully decline to pay further dues. Yours very truly, \_ C. M, Wood. A Cape Cod Hero* > > ' ' . 1¾ i e • the now abundant capital of its owner soon reared a successor. Last winter the roller process was introduced. Eighteenhandsare-now given employ mont in the various industries fconducted by the Messrs. Topping. The stave factory takes annually 500 cords of bolts, from which, on an average, 15,Q00 barrels are constructed. The flouring mil} is kept "booming" ajlthe time and Plainfield roller process flour is extensively solo^in neighbor ing~to^vnT^n^Tlltages;" Of the extensive general me roan t i le~business conducUd By Topping & Son, and their pulrc1la~ses—of wheat and other produce, live stock, etc., brief mention inust not be forgotten. Our reporter found the younger member of the firm of C. i). Mapes & Son busily engaged in unpacking g^ods to replenish the stock so liberal ly drawn upon by their many custodiers, The record of their first six month's business is a promising one. 0. L. Smith, across tho way, began the mercantile business here in 1874, and, as \\e says "has his share of the trade," but Mr. S. was "too busy" to give us further information. Levi Jacobs entertains the transient •population at the Plainfield hotel. ' An unassuming, but very pretty sign directs attention to the millinery and dressmaking establishment of Mis* EttieCofiL/ G. E.*ss»i__h__makes and repairs wagons, and Vaid he had "four pairs ot j trucks under way." Could just spare jime to hand the reporter some cash for a subscriotion to our paper. fieed & Isham recently opened a meat market here, and so far are well satisfied with their venture. E. T. Bush carries on a promiscuous business, one roof covering the necessary apparatus for planing, scrcll-sawing, ciaer-jiiakmg, and fruit drying. The machinery is arranged to economize labor, and valuable improve* ments are contemplated. Mr. Bush says he uses 15,000 to 20,000 bushels pf apples during the season. Dr. McKenzie, formerly editor of the Plainfield department of the Stockbridge Sentinel qjeals in all kinds of Drugs and patent Medicines. Favorable circumstances would rapidly devel6pe the growth and business prosperity of Plainfield, and the first locomotive steaming over the proposed hew Central railroad line would insure a prosperous future to this already enterprising little town. Mr. John Kenrijsk, of South Orleans, writes to the Yarmouth Register that Emerson N. Vhase, of Kast Harwich, is very sick, with small prospects of being restored to health; that his wife is (juite sick; that he has. two small children, and that the family has no pecuniary means. Mr. Chase's illnes&is traceable [ directly to injuries which he received in 1871 in rescuing the schooner Queen of the Fleet. The schooner, with 4 crew of sixteen, all told, was wrecked off Wellileet. In a fog she got in near the shore, and was impaled upon the wreck of an iron steamer and immefillod. Owing to the sea then running, _the iron timbers pf the wreck on which they were impaled striking up about-them, and other causes, tho crew were unatile to use their boat -to get on shore. Chase, who was one of the crew, volunteered to attempt to carry a line to the shore by swimming some one hundred and fifty yards.' He secured the end of the line around his body, went out upon th-y end of thq bowsprit of the schooner to be clear \f possible of the timbers of the wreck under them, let himself into the sea, -and by almost ^superhuman efforts, succeeded in reaching tho shore after repeatedly being washed bacfe.__by.llie undertow. He planted himself in the sand, and in his exhausted condition1 held the line until one of the crew came on shore by its aid and assisted, him in hoiding it for the remainder of the crew to land. jAmong thecrew was a small boy who got as"{tar as to the breakers oh the shore, but was unable to getTolahd. Chase, exhausted as he was, swam out to him and brought him on shore. For these heroio acts he subsequently received the siver medal of the Massachusetts Humane Society. In the year 1475, off the coast of Maine, during a storm, Mr. Chase went from the vessel in which he then was, alone in a dory boat and took from the wreck of the schoo_ner Lottie^ of Calais, Captain Benjamin Newberry and his mate:—The remainder of thej^ew hai been previously rescnecl^bya boat's crew from tJ^s.arn&,«fisseL__Eonr years agp the first o-f^May he was off Chatham harborJn-tflDoat with another man. In attempting to make the harbor the boat was capsized on the bar, and her stern sank, the two men/holding on to the bow. When another boat came in as near as safe and threw a line to them Chase insisted upon the other man taking the line and being first rescued, shouting to their rescuers, "Save this man, I em take care of myself." "Before the boat, which had drifted some way from him, could return the bow of his boat sank, and he was met swimming out. —Charles Dickens spoke true when he said: " I n the culture of flowers there cannot, by their very nature, be anything solitary or exclusive. The wind that blows-trvcr the cottage poreh sweeps over the ground of the nobleman; and the rain descends over the just and the unjust; so it communicates to all gardeners, both rich *nd poor, »n interchange of pleasure and enjoyment, and the gardener and the rich fnan, in developing or enhancing a fruitful flavor or a delightful scent is in some sort, the gardener of bodv else-'1—The Household.

"This proposition," 6aid Mr. Coke, in concluding this part of the debate, "is a plain one, that In who votes for this bill esteps himself to deny jurisdiction to congress for taxing people to raise a revenue for common Bchool purposes iu all the states. The fact that Congress gives land to agricultural colleges in various states has never been held to be anything else than grants for par ticular interests and I am opposed to this bill as a matter of expediency ami policy, i believe it is the Pandora box of evils for the country; I believe that trouble will be fomented by it.

TDE LAWYER'S SECRET. It was in a luxuriously furnished room.where a glowing grate threw light, and warmth upon the occupants, that Gerald Langton, lawyer and millionaire, listened with bated breath and pallid cheeks to a low and melodious voiCo that told a story sf a life. The speaker, a beautiful woman of abcut thirty, yet ten years younger than Mr. Langton, reclining in a low, cushioned chair, Jher attitude bespeaking the eade which wealth gives, but her face was fnll of the deepe9t-*Bguish as her lips recounted the story. — "You love me," she-said gently, yet sadly, "and 1 love you as I never loved any o»e before, although T am a widow. That you know, but did not know my "husband's nattier—By my uncle's—request I dropped it and took his with the property he left me. Do not look at me tenderly, Gerald, do not shake'-rny voice or my heart, for when you k who I am you will not repeat the offer you made me, and which, heaven is my witness. I tried to avert." • 'Let your conscience be at rest there,'' said her listener, in a grave yet lender voice; "you have never given me one hope, Maud, By what instinct 1 know that you loved nie 1 oaiv never tell, something in your eyes—soiftttyionc of your voice betrayed you. If, as you sav. something in your past life docs separate us, >ou have been no eouuet —ttrtormentm«—with-ftvlse-hope^-Uu4r4 Maud, tell me agan, whatever stands between us, you love me?" " I love you," she said gravely, "and it is because I love you that I will not let you link your honorable name'with that of tho wretch who was my hushand. 1 was very young—not sixteen •when he came to make a visit to some friends living at Grassbank. Uncle Richard ha3 a country seat near tho villager— I first met Alexander at a picnic, where he was tho very life of the party, every-body,s-€avalier-,-cour—| teous to all, full of wit and animation and •service-to al 1. I believo ejyery: girl on the grounds thought she had captivated him, his attentions were so well divided and so impressive to each one. He claimed to be no more than a salesman in a largo wholesale house with a goixi salary, buTh'e had the manners of a gentleman of good education, and the most perfect beauty of faee and fbrm that l e v e r saw in a man. It was not long before it was evident he wished to win my love, and ho had an easytasky Such love as a child of sixteen .flan give I gave him. Ho was the impenBlaticn of every hero of poetry and tietren with whom my limited reading had made me familiar. Schoolgirl like, 1 had made an ideai hero, and fitted this, my first admirer, with all his imaginary perfections: "From the first Uncle Hichard disliked him,.pronouncing_him ialse and i shallow, and assuring methat my peraonal attractiops had not won kis heart; but the fact of my being an heiress to a large property had gained mo the protestations in which I so firmly believed. "Ii is a painful story to mo now, Gerald. Let it suffice that I had lived in a world of pleasant dreams while Alexander remained at Grassbank. When he left me he carried my promise to bo his wife at Christmas. " I think if my money had depended on Uncle Richard, my marriage might have been prevented by his threatening to disinherit me, but^both Jrom my father and, mother I^litfd inherited money that niadejufTlndependent in a pecuniary sense of his control or consent . ---""^ >Most grudgingly, however, uncle . - did consent,- after searching inquiry .•'-'-""' about Alexander, resulting in no woise report than that his employers thought him fast, idle, and just the man to bo a fortune-hunter. Even then my dear unele would have protected my fortune Jby settling it upon myself; but with the reckless generosity of extreme youth, I -— refused to have this done. Never, I was fuliy convinced, would my adored ftllu appBaraw of the cilajiuaL His Alexander wrong mo in any way. "For a year alter the splendid wedding which made me Alexander's, wife, 1 was very happy. I was too ignorant of value to understand that wo were living_far beyond our income, enjoyed to tholftuiost tneTuxufiCs around nie tho constant gaiety that was strong contrast to tho school routine from which 1 had been released. Then began a life of noglect, of'en of quarreling, when 1 objected to i.iy husband's course of conduct-his drinking, his extravagance, and his late hour.*. Still I found my own pleasures in society, and a renewal of some of my favorite studies, especially languages and music. I was fond, too fond of water-color painting, and made presents to my friends of specimens of my skill in that line. "It was four years after my marriage when I was thunderstruck by Alexander asking me to request a loan of money from Uncle Richard, with the. information that every penny of my property was gone. "Since then I have known that a large portion of it was lost at the gamingtable. "Long before thisT, had lost all love tor my husband. Respect had died out when I knew the dissipated life he was leading and foolish as I was I could not continue to love a man whose actions were so despicable. 1 refuted the errand and brought down such a torrent of siich great abuse that I really expected that Alexander would end by striking nio. "Day after day the^reque^t was renewed, but I would not yield. Upon my marriage, Uncle Richard hud sold his city residenco and took up a permanent abode at Grassbank, where, knowing my husband to be au unwelcome guest, 1 nover visited himT'T wrote occasionally, but the love of years, like that of father andchild, had been so sadlystrained by my persistence in marrying Alexander that even our correspondence was languid and commonplace. " I would not, therefore write to him to ask a favor t h a t . I knew would not have been necessary without criminal recklessness of expenditure, and each refusal made my husband more furious. Then came an overwhelming blow. Alexander forged a check, and drew £2,000 of Uncle Richard's money from the bank. 1 don't think my uncle would have prosecuted him had he guessed who was the forger, but he handed the wholo thing over to the law as soon as it was discovered that the check w£.s forged. It was theji.tJ!aciid_to_JALexanJ der, and at tho same^timo it was found that he had robbed in the-same^way his former employers. He had given up for himself upon his marriage; but when he found himself without money, his knowledge of the business enabled him to forge a no^e of Derkiss it Co. Even if Uncle Richard had spared him for my sake this other forgery would have enttttoflitnTTo penal- >eivitude. He was sentenced to seven years, and uncle took mo home, fuil of heavenly pity and forgiveness for the child who had treated him so ungratefully." "Then your husband it in prison?" saidTieraTaTm a Iran!. strainedTiceT dress was neat, his hair carefully arranged, his mustache faultless, his hands white a i d refined looking. He rose from his seat upon the bed as his lawyer entered his cell. " I knew you would come," he said, courteously", "though you were oft'endiu such ! ed at my want of frankness. Well, that is all over. You will not refuse thu last ipqucst of "a dying man, Mr. Di. Now m a n on Emlmairtm hm with all lila might. Langton? "Mot if I can grant it," was the re piy. "This." said the murderer, "is n o t ! my first offense against the law. Some years ago I was sentenced to a term of years for forgery. By a strange accident 1 escaped" the penalty. On tho same day James Fox was sentenced to two years fcr petty larceny, and we were sent together to prison- James Fox—my companion, understand, not mysejf —was ceranged, but his lawyers had not been able to saye Urn, as his aberration was not always appairent. When we were entered upon the books of the prison, imagine my amazement when my fellow-prisoner gave my name for his own. Like a flash I saw the advantage to be gained by the deception, and allowed the error to pass. My companion committed suicide,- and I escaped with two years' imprisonment instead of seven. But I feared n cognition and went to Canada. There .Hived by my wits until a year ago, when I returned to try to raise monuy from my wife, and thought I saw an easier plan by committing the crime for which I die to-morrow. But I want to see my wile. 1 wronged her—I robbed her— bm heaven is my witness, I love her. When I was in prison she dropped my name and took her own again. So it is not for Mrs. Alexander Hull you must ask, but for Miss Maude Temple." - Was the room reeling—the ceiling falling—the wall closing around him? Gerald Langton fe^t as if they were as tiie name fell upon his ears. Maude—;; J his Maudo—the wife of this cool villain who talked of his hideous crimes as if they were ordinary events?—Well ,^hc j j ^ ~ ~ knew that to carry this man's message was to seoarate himself from Maude forever, ^fever wouid she let him marry" the widow of a murderer. Very rapidly all the,terriblef acts ptg>ed, one after the other, and tie said: "If you love her why add misery to her life? She may live down the old pain you caused her£ Why, for a selfiah I gratification, will yrito make her wnole life a misery?" * ' "She was my wife. I would bid her farewell." "She is not your wife, your own "No, no, he is deiu;' Ho died within the first year. Uncle Richard saw the death in a paper and sent the money for ins burial. No, I am free; but none the less 1 am the widow of a convicted felon." "But none the lees," quoted Gerald, "^TEc woman 1 love and honor above all others, and hopu still to rnako my wife." It took, however, more than one interview, full of love's pleading, to .win Maude from her resolution. She so honored her lover, and was so proud of his good name and the position Jie had attained by his talent, that her [-sensitive nature shrank from even the shadow of her misery upon his life. But the victory was ivon at last, and the lawyer walked home one evening full of a proud, glad joy, for Maude bad then promised to be-his wife. "If you are willing to take Alexander Hull's widow to bo your wife," she said, "I will notoppose you any longer, for 1 love you with all my heart." He had no thought but b f T h a t ^ a d j triumph when he turned up the gas in his office. He~was in the habit of up messages were left for him. One lay there on this evening, a shabby lookmg han desnovmeel ohpaen,' db, utw hdiicrho othoed rinec oag nbiozledd, at onco. He tore it open. ^"After a few words of introduction, the note ran: "You did the best you could or my trial, but the facts were to strong for you. I die, as you know, at noon to morrow. You, as my lawyer, can see me at any time. Will you eorne^as soon as you receive this and: win the gratitude of tho manj7.ovrk^now as ^ " J A M E S F o x ? " "The manT know as James Fox," mutteretf tho lawyer; "the smooth, ©hlusiblo scoundrel who actually made [ me believe him innocent if the hideous murder for which he was c(5nvietcd7~rT can find extenuation for some murders, but this' cold-blooded assassination of an old Mian for money only was revolting. How he deceived me, though, for a time. And how he exulted over his success in doing so when he saw facts were too strong. Shall I go to him? I suppose I must. It is still very early." It was not yet midnight when Gerald Langton was ushered into the cell of the man who, in a few short hours, was to meet the extreme penalty of the law for the worst of all climes. Yet there was nothing revolting in wit**- ~^~ e in the cell. I Langton's it Alexander evidently recrimes have released her f ronT any allegiance to you." "You know her?" "Yes. I know what s ie has suffered and beg ,f»f you to let In r still telkve you died vears ago." "She is happy?" "Scarcely that.

The American people have upon George Washington aa hf.f.n its nearly pfirfrctiqn a«=jt our large cities and states that are colo nized as Young Ireland,1 'New Germany' and the Chinese quarters. Whole sections of territories are settled by nationalities. Their children are taught the language of their nations. The laws} of our government are printed in their tongues. This is contrary to the principles of the government and is antagonistic to the country. Only one language aad|one customfshould be taught here. They come here and receive the advantages of this country. These privileges are not grants from the superior to the inferior but the right eoming from the constitution. This is not true of England and France, and thes>ei strangers^fejuld become Americans, as this government is for the people and from the people. No matter what the population may be, whether it be aO,- 000,000 or one man, that man constitutes the republic. If a German comes to our shores and reaps«the advantages of our schools he should be taught to believe as Americans believe. He can learn the German customs in Germany. The power of th's government is not physical force. A stranger coming here may not see the great armies of Russia, Austria, France and England. He is not in constant fear of a great armed police force. We are-not governed by that kind of a force, but a moral force. Ts-^that support this countryare intelligence and virtue. Our constitution recognizes no church. There is a separation of the church and state wjiere there should be a union, Strangers come here from other shores foisible for a man to be. Yet the recently published journal of William MacJay, of Pennsylvania, one of the members of the first Senate of the United States, shows him to have been "a poor critter," like the rest of us. The manuscript of this journal of Senator Mcalay was'presented to the Library of Congress several years ago, but was never published until a few weeks ago. It contains much of the local gessip of Washington City of the day, and its pen-pictures of the then distinguished public a s n are Interesting. Q The inauguration of Washington as the first President, according to Senator Maclay, was an occasion of much embarrasment to both ;he Presidentelect and the members of the-Senate. John Adams, when he received Washington, was so agitated that he turned pale, then blushed, stammered through bis address, and at one time nearly broke down. Washington was himself nearly as awkward as Adams. "The great man," says Maclay, "was agitated and embarrassed more than ev«r he was by the leveled cannpn or pointed musket-. He trembled, and several times could scarce make out to read, though it must be supposed he had often read it before. He made a flourish with his right hand, which left rather an ungainly expression.'' To the school boy who nearly loses his wits the first time he steps upon the stage to speak his piece, especially if it is original, this description of Washington's great effort will be encouraging news/ I As is well known, Washington was a great stickler for form, and he would adhere to what was bonsidered etiquette, even if to do so made him ridiculous. After the inauguration a Committee of the Senate, of whom, Maclay was one, called upon Washington. After John Adams had, with much trembling, stumbled through the Senate's address, "the President took his reply out of his pocket. He had his spectacles in his jacket pocket havk time. It may not occur for many generations to come. It may be a strife between the state and the Catholic church, but we pray that it may—notlowed by their priests who have no personal interests in ourm"sTttuTi9ns7 They bring their customs and religions with ..heir!T and are ready to establish a tern-,. .-. . . , . •, . . - , • . p" ie of w-o rshivp .

But taking bis spectacles from his casc e m ba rassed him. He got rid of this small distress by laying the spectacle case on the mantel-piece. * * * Could the laws of etiquette have permitted him to have .been .disencumbered of his h a t , l t would have relieved him much." Washington's dignity was such that had he lived in this day he would be in continual distress over the American seeming lack of respect for those occupying high"'"poslEicrn. ~~Tbrr story of the witting look which he gave Governeur Morris, the writer pf the Constitution for-presuming to slap him familiarly on the back—the result of a wagwith some friends —is well known;- result in such. These men, these priests who come from Italy and Ireland, are enemies to the United States. They establish a church that is not consistent With our government. The duty of the foreigner is to become naturalized. No man has' a right to come here, make his 'home under our llag and reap the benetits of this country without naturalization, But naturalisation is like church membership. It does LO good unles$the.iieart is in it. Wemay see the danger coming out of the majorities. As the great Englishman said w! o.recently visited nr.r country — no matter ^imt_lnjs__hyp^^.:tical criticisms of our manners, of our litera.ure were; no matter how irreligious he maybe— he spoke the truth when he said that the great danger of this country lies in its numbers. Blaine on C a s s . From "Twenty Years in Congress.*1 The Democratia candidate was a man of high character. He had served creditably in the early part of the war of 1812, had been Governor "of Michigan had Presidency. These-facts did not escape the jealous^andever watchful eye of Mr.^yaufBuren. He was aggrieved by course of General Cass, feeling that its direc; effect would be to injmre himself, and not to promote the political fortunes of the General. But the rivalry continued to develop. Cass remained in the field, a persistent ..candidate for nomination, and in the end ptoved to be, perhaps, the most powerful factor in tho combination which secured the triumph for Polk. He had deeply wounded Mr. Van Buren, and as th latter thought, carelessly and cpjetly Ho had disregarded a person*t^and po litical friendship ofjjj^frfyears' duration, and had sujwtertd ties which life was too 'gh^rfto reunite. Cass hud gained no victory. Ho had only'defeated old friends, and the houi of retribution was at hand. For the noblest man yet remains a con flic that lives there-j ar field. I s T h a t You, Cfcarley? There :s a venerable story illustrative of Western manners and customs concerning a Wisconsin girl who attended a picnic and wandered some distance into the woods with a possible expecta tion that some one would follow her While she was seated on a log wondering if he would never come a grizzly bear stole up behind her, and bracing | his hind feet against the log, hugged r er with some Maclay was also guilty of unintentionally offending Washington, though not in the same manner. Washington, with his Secretary of War, General Knox, visited the Senate to seouto the ratification of certain Indian treaties. The presence of these dignitaries so awed the Senate that they would have ratified the treaties without a word had not Maclay risen in his seat and objected. While Maclay was objecting, Washington scowled and looked highly angry.but the Senator persisted,arguing mi Territory from 1S13 to 18:U, had been n\e ye»rs becretarv of wa^unaer^en-4- fa h g ^ k Inothing of-theseeral Jacksen, and nad gone to I ranee | f„0<lf;00 _ , , ^aXT ^n„& _ • J= . :t. as Minister in 1836. He remained at the court of Louis Philippe, where he received eminent consideration for six years. When he returned to this country in 1*42, at 60 y«ars of age, he undoubtedly intended to re-enter political life. He landed at Boston and was received with enthusiasm by J h e New England Democrats, especially of that class who had not been in special favor during the long reign of Jackson and his successor. Popular ovations were arranged for himas he journeyed westward, and,"by the time he reached his home in Detroit General Cass was publioly rooognized as a candidate for the : . - • . * ' « k treaties and they should go to a committi e and time be had to examine them. As Maclay sat down the President started up in a violent frit, and said: "This defeats every purposoof my cominghere^- After a time he arose again and said he ha^ no objections to a postponement for a few days, to which the Senate agreed. "A" pause for some l.iine ensued," says Maclay. "We waited for him to withdraw. He did so with a discontented air—had it been any otlierthan the mar whom—I wiRh to regard as the first character in the world, I should have said, with sullen dignity. —As compared" with those of recent Presidents, Washington's dinners were plain affairs, and were "as solemn as a funeral." Not a word was spoken until the dessert was reached. "Washington made no effort to entertain any one. He rarely spoke. He filled in his time by beating the devil's U upon the plates ancLtable. ^ 2 ^ * * It was a dinner of dignityr^says Maclay. "I looked oftetfaround the company to findjthtfnappiest faces; but I thougjit-folrv and happiness the most y allied. Tho President seemed to bear in his countenance a settled aspect of melancholy.

JEROME WINCliKLL, EDITOK. Entered at the I'ostofflco iut *t class, matter. this a40 Ofcir, the jiot hlameless, but it is just to spy boy's parents are iV CURRENT TOPICS. SAYS tne Rev. Dr. Deems: "Always eep an enemy on a brisk, hearty, active enemy.11 The having one is proof that you are somebody. Wishywashy, empty,'worthless people never have enemies. Men who never move never run against anything; and when a man u thoroughly dead and utterly buried nothing ever runs against him. To be run against is proof of existence and position: to run against something is proof of motion. The next best thing to having 100 real friends it* to have one open enemy. SOCIALISTS of Chicago declare the cause of the late riot in Cincinnati to have been 4,a premature explosion of general discontent, caused by the nrebrand of inciting and inflammatory speeches by so-called leading citizens who were seeking to divert the attention of the people from the real causes of existing social'inequalities which have become almost unbearable by pointing cut to them an insignificant petty criminal — an individual murderer -as one of the causes of the existing evils and human degeneracy.1' Ix view of the near approach of "Arbor Day" Prof. Beal advises planting nearest the house the rarer 05 more beautiful tiees, especially those of small size, while farther away the commoner native forest trees. Plart so as to conceal from the best part of the house and grounds any object which is unsightly, whether near or remote. Do not plant the large trees in one place and1- the small trees in another, but mix them. On the lawn, not far off, a little to one side, or even in frontrof the house, set now and then one of the more elegant single trees or a small group of shrubs or small kinds of trees. SINCE the Cincinnati riot, one of the branches of the Ohio .Legislature has passed a law repealing tho exemption of those belonging to military companies from jury duty in important criminal cases; reduced the criminal's right to peremptory challenges of tho juryfrom twenty-three to six, aapV-raised those of the prosecution^-ffom two to four. The Cincinnati" Commercial Gazette urges two more -the relief of the Supremo" Coart from the revision and version of verdicts; and the reduction of the time between a murderer's sentence and his execution from 100 to 30 days. Th« Legislature has already passed a law prohibiting his intelligence from disbarring a man from jury duty; so that, altogether, it will be observed that the news from Cincinnati has reached Columbus. for they were ignorant of tho fact that the boy was feeding his mind upon literature which was poisoning his whole moral nature. Other parents should tako warning from this sad lesson, ami give tho young of their hotuns entertaining and instructive books which, when read, will leave an impression for good, and implant in the mind a desire for a purer and nobW life. . \ • .- M a t t e o i of I n t e p e s t t o t h e B o y s w h o W o r e t h e Blue. A question of considerable interost to soldiers of the late war has for several* days been under discussion in the House committee on invalid pensions. For the past 10 years each succeeding congress has been importuned to ^naet legislation granting pensions to all of those solders who were cou'ined, during the unpleasantness, in t1" uoel prisons, Libby, AadcrsonvilK <* *..•. Each year congress has adjourned without reach* ing a conclusion upon the subject; This winter, however, two bills of like import were introduced and referred, one to the.committee above spoken of, and the other to tho committee on payment of pensions, bounty and back pay. The former committee will make a favorable report to tneHou.se. It is not known what action tho other will tako. In speaking of this subject, Representative Greenteaf of New York said: " I don't think a bill pensioning every soldier simply on tho ground that he' was con lined for two months in a rebel prison will be favorably reported, or that such a bill could pa«s the House Our committee (on payment of pensions, bounty and back pay) has before it, and will doubtless-be ready to report shortly, a bill which every soldier who has sought a pension will appreciate.

P. Wilson, whom I had known, sent for me at tho jail to have me defend him for stealing a suit of clothes from the Union Hotel lu this city, l i e fetid he was looking up the Crouch case, and said he knew who committed the murders and was acquainted with tbeui, and that he met the parties in Minneapolis iu a room. There were three of them and they had papers which were taken In a bank roobery in Indianapolis. Among them was an agreement signed by Byron L. Crouch and J acob D. Crouch; that he raked the men what this paper was and they said it is about "that Crouch matter," and he said he laid it down on the table saying he didn't want anything to do with It. 'the party % & lamcro. 1 no iracnn ui iuriT men wcr*> observed from the house leading towar and were traced nearly two miles, that of a hob uall boot or shoe. The fcraeka, which were very distinct, were measttr*4 *nd Impresfious taken. As yet -uspiclon rest" oa no particular person. There is great exclteine/ i r* I in the army simply because Jkcy are unabled to get any one>to"certify at this lato date, that tjieywere perfectly sound, physicallyv'upM'ards of 20 year* ago"" J^*-"""" ' Xho^r'two biil.s are perhaps as imporiant to the soldiers of the late war as any that arcnow before congress.

I became interested and" said tc^ Wilson if he would give me the paper and tell me who the men were I would give him $3,000. He asked me what I was teo4n*jtrested-tothe matter forr- 1 said I am their attorney and. of eourse 1 was interested for my clients. He replied, if I had known that you were their attorney 1 wouldn't have given vou a word. 1 then toid Mr. Gunn, Mr. iieeves^and others, and no one would put auy faith i u Ms statement. Kven Jud and ilolcomb/sald they did not know of any such contract/ 1 subsequently had a number of interviews with Wllsou, ana he always told the same story and always saia he knew who did the murder. At/my lustigation-iialcomb talked with Wllsouat the jail and hi; told the same story to IVliero W o n I t e r r l u t f t o u f Owing to th« fact that C D. Herrlogton, the wUtiesslu the Crouch-Ilolcomb examlnatton, freely accounted for his whereabout* except on the night of Nov. !il and the day of NaT. 33, 1SSH—the night of aud day following the murders at the Crouch farm—detectives ID the interest c f the defense have been lookiof up Herrington's movements about that time, ana it is now said that }'. J. Kelley. a painter of Jackson aud an old resident, will swear that he saw Herrlngton on the morning of Nov. 22, about 5 o'clock, coming from the south of the bridge over the Michigan Central track 0Q West avenue, and that when Herrington saw hlra he left the road proper and made his way across the country in a north-westerly direction, as though he was going towards Eaton Rapids or Charlotte or Olivet, where he was afterward. Kelley declines to be Interviewd, but Detective Harris says Kelley will get into a bid box if he swears he saw Herrington as stated, because he could not possibly have done so. HerrlDgton's son, it ia said, will swear that hi* father slept with him at or near Olivet on took all the papers aud sealed Himitiji in a laid | ti... uigbt ot Nov. 21, and the prosecution aver that the defense are simply trying to shift the crime, or suspicion of it, upon Herrlngton in order t o j . e l p their olituts out of their dilemma.

No one but his father and/liUa-elf knew of the existence of thispuper. Mx/mau could describe It so uecuiately unless he had seen it or had it described to him. / i then offt-red to give Wilson |*i,(X)u if he would tell where the papers were and who the men were who did the murder. 1 think I had h!m very near the point of giving up all he had, but 1 Uiiuk from something I said he becaine" reticent and said he was not yet prepareuHo tell all he knew, and I gathered fromjtiis'couversatlon that he was afraid that if-^ne did give up his pals, and they weptMffot convicted, they would kill him. ^ ^ 1 now spoke^crofflcer Murray, who had arre8ted^\ VAts6n, and he advised me to go to Chicago and see the olllcer, Denney Simmons, d get his opinion of Wilson's favor tho soldier element, and" it is more thau likely that the one or botb of the bills referred to will receive favorable action before tho session comes to :v cio.se. T H E Panama Star and Herald publishes the following, which it credits to the Monitor Republican of Mexico: "A wild boy was recently caught in the Santa Rosa Mountains in the vicinity of Tahcauhuitzr He was carried to that town and put in a well-fenced garden, where he greedily consumed fruit, lettuce, roses and the roots cf several plants. He never spoke o? seemed tor notice those who went to see hiar." He seemod perfectly harmless, but one day he seized a littkTchild three years of age aud began to eat it. cries^#tfracted attention, but before distance reached the spot tho young savage had devoured the flesh of the right arm and part of the face. On seeing that the child was about to be taken away he squeezed it to death in his arn»s. This wild youth is now chained up, but his captors are at a loss what to do with him. 1» another lesson is needed to teach parentc the demoralizing effect of the trashy literature which tho youth of our land read with such aviditv, it can be found in the suicide of Louis Dake, aged 17, of Manistee. From a letter found by the boy's parents after his death it was learned that he had forged a check on a merchant of that city, and had committed other sins of a revolting nature. As be was n o t - y fatrdetjed criminal, thetnemory of his crimes so preyed upon his mind as to drive him to the cowardly act. In tho lad's coat pocket was found a dime novel entitled "The Forged Check," which in tones louder tean Sinai's thunder, told the secret of the downfall, and which resulted in his self-destruction. At such a time it may toot be ri^ht to say that for H o w t o B e a r Children. Treat them kindly. Don't preach politeness and propriety to them and violate their laws yourself. In other words, let the example you set them bo a good one. Never quarrel in their presence. If you want to quarrel, wait til1 the childrcn arc gone to bed.—Then they will not see you, and perhaps by that timo you will not want to quarrel. Never talk "old folk's" talk in front of children. ^ - Never speak flippantly ofneighbors before children.

The eecond was dated March 2, and said the writer had'^ot a clue lo the Crouch murder, but a& the reward had been withdrawn should not reveal it; that he was arretted on a put up job of the Flnkerton detectives, but that he would get ahead of t > t m y e t . The third was March 1^X6^.4, in which he said he had been ofjered $6,0ou by Frazer to fclve up what h>-knew, and | i , 0 0 0 from Holcomb, a rejative, of 15,000.

UCicers Joseph"Kiplej and Denny Simmons again came down and "saw Wilson and they stated to your' correspondent that Wilson certainly told a remarkable story, and they "think he should be made to tell what he knows.' They say that the man Livingston is just the one Wilson would contide in, aud they say further that Wilson, while they were in the jail to-day corrected a .statement made by Capt. Crouch while upon the witness stand *>s to. the exact amount contained in the contract, which the Captain says be now remembers to be correct, but which he had.for^otten. Officer Murray says Wilson told him that he knew more of the Crouch murder than he and all the detectives in the country. T h e A m e n d e Honorable. Texas Sittings. A stranger—traveling--cnthrough the back woodsof Arkansas was very much impressed witli the familiarity that existed between tho pigs and the natives. Tho swine had a free pass to the privileges of the house, and seemed to make liberal use of it. Riding up to a shanty, the stranger a ked a tali; unkempt specimen- of humanity: •'Why don't you keep jour pigs out of your house?" ''Look here, stranger," responded the Arkansas man, putting his hands inliis pockets, **ef you mean to say that my family ain't lilted for hogs to associate with, just come out like a man and say it." The stranger immediately appeased the native by conceding thatthe farmer was a fit associate for a hog, and the usual greeting of: ''Light, stranger, and have some simmons beer, Roll a pumpkin out from under the bed, and make yourself at hum. When you first spoke, I thought you was getting some sarcasm on me, and I don't propose to take any of that ar." Tfie officers are busy loot4nK up what they can get hold of in legard to the matter and it looks as if Wilson may be Induced to tell all he knoffe. . U n r d e r » a t E a s t T a w a * . The""h'oufe of Chaa. Schullz, a G»rman farmer rcstdiag with his wife, BOH and dairghter, three miles acdt a half back from Tawas, was entered by three men in flannel masks, about midnight a few nights ago. They effected an entrance by forcing a door open with a" fence rati. The men were armed with clubs and revolvers. They first assaulted the father, whom they beat terribly over the head with clubs. The-son, aged 27, and daughter, 8ged325, came to the assistance -x>L-Muite father and bravely attacked the robbers with the b:;Bt weapons at their command. The son, who is not bright, was shot and clubbed to death. His skull was fractured in two places and his neck broket,. There was a bullet hole a little above the left eye, penetrating the brain. The daughter was thrown to the floor, clubbed and ehot at twice, but escaped 6crious injury, although she was conpidcrnbly bruised and slightly cut. I n th( struggle she succeeded in tearing the mai from the face of the man holding her, but d'id not recognize his features. She de?cribeB/him as a large man with a reddish mustache/ and thinks she could identify hira. The p o t h e r was dragged from her bed, clubbed andiilcked, but not terlously hurt.
