CHAPTER L
AFTER THE BALL.
I t was 8 o’clock of a dreary winter’s
day. M. L ecoq, on special dnty at the.
Grand Opera ball, was on Ms way past
the Grand Hotel when ho met a police­
man who informed him that there was
something np in the Hue Canmartin.
However much h e merited repose, M.
L ecoq quickened Ms steps. But he had
been anticipated b y the W ard Commissaire of Police. A crowd was at the
carriage gateway of Ho. 35, counterbal­
ancing the cold with tho heat o f dis­
cussion. The detective lingered a mo­
ment to scrutinize the little mob, but it
was composed entirely of neighbors,
shop clerks, and innocent chance
passengers. So ho wont into the princely
mansion, whieh ho knew to belong to
the Count of Montfort Ste. Croix.
The first room on the first floor had
been barricaded liy a heavy piece of
furniture whieh it had taken two power­
ful men to move hack. The castors had
been removed to prevent it being rolled
away. Hot a thing in the dhung-room
had been disordered. The doors were
open of a reception-room, where a hall
dress was spread out on throe chairs. In
the sleepmg apartment were the police­
men, servants and Police Commissary.
The latter glanced around audrecognize.d. Lecoq with some relief in Ms eyes,
hut the new-comer did not return the
salutation. H e could n o t Accustomed
though he was to scenes o f bloodshed
and crime, the present scene shocked
Mm into silence and immobility.
The room was very large aud lofty,
nung with maroon and paneled in ebony
and gold.
In the very center was
stretched the lifeless remains of a beau­
tiful young lady—the Countess—only
partly covered_hy a tablecloth, wMeli she
had clutched and Hra^ged over her in
her fall. The com er ot the lips was still
curled in a smile, as if to mock at the
idea of the fate which had abruptly over­
taken youth and beauty. The superb
and somber decoration, in the very latest
taste of that day, was most appropriate
to the picture. The boudoir was in the
other extreme luxurious. Its door was
open and everything was topsy-turvy
there. The graceful body had stiffened
in a dishabille wMch had cost the Brus­
sels nuns some years of spider-like toil.
Her long, -air tresses formed a golden
pillow under her head and half veiled a
small sword wound on the bosom— the
egress of the blade, for she had been run
through from behind. The carpet was
crimson and hardly betrayed tho blood,
but- a wtote fox rag was horribly dab­
bled. A wax candle stood on the floor,
nearly burnt out with having solitarily
watched over the victim. A very long,
thin rapier, witn a chiseled howl, whose
place was vacant in a trophy of arms on
the wall, lay on the rug.
It was the
Count’s ancestral sword. The bed bore
no trace of a struggle there. Suddenly
a little rosy froth effervesced on the
lady’s lips, wMch parted, and the eves,
if possible, stared a trifle wider.
The
cold air brought M b y Lecoq had meehaMcally affected the corpse. But the
servants started in terror.
“ I have, had no time to do anything,”
;aid the Commissary after the detective
explained how he came there. *‘ I have
sent for a magistrate. Hohody is under
arrest.”
I t was an, appeal for him to begin the
inquiry. The affair had stupefied the
official.
The first tiling manifest was that the
murderer or murderers had not left the
house in an ordinary course. The por­
ter had let no one out since Ms mistress
came home from the hall. The next to
arrive were the coachman and the lady’s
maid, who had been to tho opera hall
also, hut not together; and had not
known one another to be there. On
their going up stairs, they had heard
footsteps in their mistress’ room. The
barricaded door had baffled them. The
porter had helped tho coachman to re­
move the block, and then all three had
discovered the dead woman, hut not a
glimpse of her assassin.
A t Lecoq’s suggestion, they were put
under arrest and guarded, sej>arated.
“ In fifteen years,” said L ecoq, grow­
ing more and more serious’ as he found
jewels and cash untouched, “ I have met
no crime so obscure.”
' They examined the servants individu­
ally. B ut their statements tallied. The
Countess was haughty, hut not to her
domestics. She conldhardly have made
an enemy in the house. She had given
leave for the coachman (as her cavalier
came for her in his carriage) and maid
to spend the fflglit out. " The Count had
mining property in the Alps, and was at
Geneva engaging an engineer.
“ H e should he telegraphed to at
once,” advised L ecoq. “ Betsy, as they
call you,” he proceeded to the tiringwoman. “ D id you see your mistress at
the ball? ”
“ She did not go to the opera ball,
sir,” was the answer, “ to m y knowl­
edge. But to the masquerade at the
Spanish banker’s, Hermanoz.”
“ "Who was the gentleman who called
for her?”
She did not know. But the porter
knew. The Marquis des Medranc’s car­
riage had come and had brought her
hack. She had gone up the staircase
alone—qfflte alone beyond a doubt.
“ The Marquis has the next bouse,”
observed the Commissary. “ Cau we ask
him to assist the inquiry ?” L ecoq con­
sidered.
“ The magistrate’s order would dp it.
But let us risk it. L et Gerold request
Ms presence.”
Meanwhile they resumed the search
for articles from’ the apartments other
than that' visible.
The Marquis de Medrano was prompt
in responding to the summons. H e was
iu evening-dress. H e was good looking,
and had been a fop among the Caderousse Grammont set a few years back.
H e was pale. H e had heard the news
from Ms servants, nodoubt, or the crowd
at the door would have enlightened Mm.
He knelt down b y the deadbociy, and
dwelt a while in silence. But there was
nothing unnatural in his n ot expatiating
upon the dreadfully sudden death of Ms
recent partner in the waltz. Every feat­
ure had. been attentively regarded by
L ecoq and the police official.
“ W e understand you accompanied
L ady Montfort to a ball,” began the la t­
ter.
‘
“ I t was to M. Hermanoz’s. M y poor
friend, whose husband wished her not
to be cooped up in M s absence, request­
ed m y arm and carriage, and, having
spent the early part of the night, I
brought her to her door. I went to m y
d u b , but I was too tired to play, lost a
few napoleons, and come home.”
“ D id y o n see the lady to this door ?’’
inquired the detective. ,
“ This? No, n o! She would- not
even le t me-leave the carriage. I may
say—whatever value the information
possesses,'that the windows were lighted
np when I came homo a second time.”

“ Can yon form any opiMon about
this crim e?”
“ Beidly I know so little of the Mont­
fort family.”
“ Excuse me, m y L ord,” said Lecoq,
with pretended liluntness, “ hut we
know your Lordship to he quite in the
world of fasMou. W ho has been ac­
cused of being tliis poor lady’s cieisboo V”
“ The Count of Montfort,” answered
he, testily, turning red after paling, “ is
a splendid fellow. She idolized Mm.
W hy, this will break his heart when he
learns it. But who will impart the
news ?”
“ That’s been done,” answered the of­
ficial.
An horn- after, the body having been
placed on tho bed, a magnificent mass
of rare flowers came from the Marquis,
wMch Betsy, released as guiltless, ar­
ranged with taste.
B y tho midmght train and a cab driv­
en at tearing speed tbe Count arrived.
His wife, surrounded b y the blossoms,
and upon black velvet, in that gloomy
room seemed only sleepmg. Betsy had
plaited her long flaxen tresses. Gontran de Montfort strode up to the bed,
having kept Ins countenance up to that
moment, hut then, nature having been
overstrained, he fell on Ms knees, em­
bracing the clay-cold idol, and sobbed
her name.
The servants repeated
through the mansion, in a tone which
testified to the rarity of the event, “ My
Lord had tears in 1ns eyes.”
Iu the morning Mr. L ecoq called to
say that lie had been specially trusted
with the case.
“ I am sorry to tell your Lordship,
though,” ho remarked, “ that the caso
is inexplicable so far. B ut we are'bound
to pierce the mystery. ”
T h e noblem an
and answered:
looked at him sadly,
“ I t is viseless for you to look after tho
murderer of m y loved one. H o is no
common criminal. I have, no other aim
in life now. And when I meet him, be­
lieve me, I shall not call in the law to
execute Mm.”
This speech seemed out of place on
the lips of a Breton gentleman, a race
noted for religious aud law-abiding traits.
C IIA P1E R H .
BEFORE THE BTJELETS.
Like all rich capitalists, Marquis Hec­
tor de Medrauc found liimself mined
b y the Eranco-Prussian war. H e hast­
ened to Paris tho moment the gates were
opened from his Italian retreat, aud
found. Ms house property, nearly all
centrally located, in good preservation.
Absorbed in his preparations, he was in
Paris on the 18th_of March, 1871. Per­
haps lie was the only nobleman who was
not in London or the South, preferring
to see their country desolated without
them rather than pass under democratic
rule or mto tho army, forgetting all hut
Erauee.
The town was not pacified, and the
thunder rumbled on the heights ofl
Belleville and Montmartre. The spring
came delightful after the vigorous win­
ter, and the Parisian little recked that
the lilacs given Ms lady love came from
ground rocking imder the batteries of
Clamart, manned b y Frenchmen firing
on then- own capital.
The Marquis had hidden in his hotel
of the Kue Garmurtin. The gates were
solid; Ms servants well-paid.
H e heard
the firing on the Pare Monseau with joy,
as it betokened an advance of the Gov­
ernment troops against the insurrection­
ists. I t was at £Ms juncture that a young
woman in tho red zouave dress of a vivnndiere of Flourens’ Avengers present­
ed herself at the gates—her name, Assie
Koragou. A Breton girl, from Ms own
estates, passed her into Ms presence.
“ M y Lord,” said she, “ I heard at the
Council of the Commune in the Emiatory
Chapel that you are known to be here,
and a detachment is on the way to take
you out.
They are enraged that yon
should have lived here as a spy, they
say, so long.”
His laugh of contempt was cut short
by one of those knocks at the guard-door
wMch seldom come to noblemen’s port­
als— either from a L in g ’s lackeys or the
people’s. It was a dozen musket buttends. Some one fired a shot from with­
in. “ That’s a fool,” said the Marquis,
“ against m y order. Tliosejnen of mine
will get massacred.”
“ And me, too,” said the girl.
“ Don’t you tremble, m y la ss; the old
fox has more than one gap to his biu’row !”
The listener smiled secretly with un­
accountable joy.
“ In the cellar ?”
“ The cellar? Nonsense! The day
has gono b y for trap doors of old-style
construction.”
Meanwhile the doors had been broken
down. A dozen shots were fired. A
shoal of men invaded the mansion, yell­
ing:
“ The Marquis! Your plagneyLord!
The people w’ere fired upon! A rope!
Aud the Marquis!”
Tho girl clung to tho gentleman in
trepidation.
“ Make haste! This way, ” he said.
There was a suit of armor on a panel.
H o pressed one of the hundred orna­
ments on the frames and the whole panel
turned round so as to disclose a hole M
the wall with four steps. On the upper
level wTas shown the interior of a room
beyond. The Marquis pushed the young
Breton before him, and closed the panels.
That inner room was the Countess’
boudoir, of MontfortHouse. As soon as
they entered there the grnde closed the
second panel.
“ 'What a fine invention,” said the girl.
“ What was it ever made for ?”
“ Both houses belong to m e,” he said,
gloomily, without directly replying to
her.
They could hear indistinctly the up­
roar of the Federais seeking the fugi­
tives.
“ Hiss away, vipers,” said he scorn­
fully. ‘ ‘ You have lost your prey. ”
But suddenly a powerful voice thun­
dered on the other side of them in the
ebony bedroom.
“ Shut that door; we’ve enough here
already."
“ M y father,” exclaimed the girl, joyfully.
“ Koragou,” added the Marquis, with
equal glee, “ So tho YersaiUes troops
have arrived already.” ■
A gray hut hale peasant, in rustic at­
tire, but with a scarlet hand on Ms
left arm and in a military cap, appeared
on the boudoir threshold, Kemington
rifle in hand.
“ You see, father, I have kept my
word,” cried the girl, ranging herself by
the new-comers and drawing a revolver.
“ B etra y ed !” exclaimed Madrono.
“ What, a Breton, who believes in the
saints, on the side of these atheists and
disrespeeters of property and family ! ”
“ M y Lord,” rejoined the old peasant,
by force of habit, “ you are a Breton,
but you forgot the saints when you dis­
placed m y son from 1ns humble curacy;
and where was your respect for prop­
erty when you stole away the affections
of Lady Montfort ? ”
“ And .where was yours for family
when you murdered the poor lady here
—here! in the n ig h t? ” cried Assie
Koragou, furiously. “ Brothers! this is
the murderer of the Countess of Mont­
fort. H e came in b y this secret way and
slew, her because she rejected him. T
say slay-him, or I myself will do it J’
Hector reflected on the singular haz­
ard that.had brought him to the scene
of Ms crime. But he took his courso
manfully. H e went and planted him­
self where he remembered the lady to
have fallen, and said:
“ Jackals may hedge in a lion. Take
the like o f you for m y peers; to judge
me ? Nonsense! Wreak your will on
m y body; the rest flies above your
level!”
“ Fire!” cried Koragou. “ Fire on a
hater of the people!”
A dozen bullets shattered Ms breast.
But the volley wras drowned by the tu­
mult in the street. The regulars had
taken the chapel and w’ere clearing the
streets as the Communists fell hack.
Half an hour afterward Count Mont­
fort, Colonel of the Second Battalion,
Coteville Nord Mabiles. entered Ms
house, where he understood there
had been fighting; hut h e marked little
damage. In the ebony chamber, on the
site o f which Ms orderly halted, a liuddled-up figure was blotting the floor.
“ A man shot!” cried the soldier, un­
concernedly.
Gentium stooped over the body; a pa­
per was pinned as only a -woman pins
papers, to his battered breast:
The Marquis de Medrauc—snot for filin g on
the people, anil fo r murder o f the Countess o f
M ontford.
-Witness:
Assie K oragou.
“ Assie!
M y wife’s foster sister.
Medranc here, the murderer of m y poor
wife. This is the hand of retribution!”
The panel had flown open at the ex­
plosion of the guns. The'seerct of the
ebony chamber was laid bare.
Bobbed o f Her Sunsliine.
From St. Louis there comes a strange
story; so strange that at first it ap­
peared like an invention of some in­
genious manufacturer of fables. In
vestigation shows it to he founded on
fact. For nearly twenty years a wealthy
man has been starring his daughter of
the sunshine, keeping her all the while
locked up in a suit of ricHy-fumislied
rooms. The infatuated man is the vic­
tim of a queer delusion. Iu earlier life
he had lost all Ms children. One by
one each of them fell a prey to some
disease, and the father became discour­
aged. There is no state of physical ail­
ment nor any condition of mental or
moral worriment for which some quack
or other is not f oimd to prescribe. When
all this man’s children had gone, and a
new little daughter was b om unto him,
one of these quacks dropped iu. This
particular quack was probably a mixture
of Indian herb doctor and gypsy fort­
une-teller.' W ith solemn guise of
profundity of wisdom he delivered
Ms opinion, which was that the new­
born child should he kept for twentyone years out of the direct rays of the
sun—locked in as a prisoner. I f this
prescription were observed, she would
live.
I f it were disregarded, death
would he the result. Surrounded by all
that wealth can give her, except free­
dom and sunshine, tins poor creature
has now reached the age of 20. She is
pallid and flabby and thin and languid.
She looks more like half-animated waxworks than like a living girl. She has
books and pictures aud embroideries and
laces and fine apparel. She takes exer­
cise after a fashion, but it is the fashion
of the convict M the penitentiary. She
has been told that her imprisonment is
for her good, and, like a dutiful daugh­
ter, she would fain believe it so. But
her monotonous life is so burdensome to
her that she would rather die than live
out even the year winch must elapse be­
tween the present time and her emanci­
pation. T o her the outside world is
sometMug as intangible as the. life of
the antediluvians. She knows of it by
hearsay. The tutors and servants, who
exercise rigid scrutiny over all her move­
ments and are as jailers to her, have
told her of green trees and running riv­
ers and crowded streets and noisy
throngs and the busy rash of the
world’s traffic. A dim picture of all tins
floats confusedly before her mind,
hut practically she knows nothing
of these things and cannot comprehend
them. In the narrow confines of her
hixiuiously-fumished room, she won­
ders and meditates and paces up aud
down and chafes at her Mactirity. She
would joyfully exchange her lot with the
poorest newsboy or the most unwashed
bootblack on the street. She is fam­
ished for sunlight, and declares that she
must have it or die. 'When the term of
her captivity shall expire, and her ty­
rannical father opens the door for her
to the outer world, she will be like a
poor, pale, leafless aud flowerless plant.
He wUl then congratulate himself on
having saved Ms daughter. But re­
proaches should overwhelm congratula­
tions in Ms mind, for he has brought her
up to a life wMch will make her utterly
miserable.
Sunshine is not a thing wMch can he
administered in one dazzling dose when
the victim of shade aud shadow attains
maturity.
As well deprive a child of
proper food until it comes of proper age,
and then spread before it a rich array of
delicacies wMch it neither can under
stand nor digest. Bather feed the child
on the most delightful and nomisking
diet during infancy and youth. Flavor
the food with sunshine and let the child
walk in the light.
A childhood of
shadow clouds the whole life. A flood
of sunshine from the earliest infancy
moans strength and joy and health and
happiness all the way down to old ago.
To rob a child of its sunshine is to make
its whole life a pilgrimage of woe.—

Marriages in England at Niglit.
No marriage of this kind can take place
in England except imder the signed fiat
and special license of the Archbishop of
Canterbury, first petitioned for and ob­
tained. The grant or refusal rests en­
tirely in the discretion of the Primate,
who is said to enter into every detail
himself. B y No. 102 of the “ Constitu­
tion and Canons of the Church of E n­
gland” of 1603 (now in force) it is or­
dained that all ordinary marriages slialj
b e celebrated between the hours of 10
and 12 M the forenoon, and the same
canon law has since been confirmed b y
various acts, of Parliament, and is to he
found reaffirmed b y the Marriage act of
George IY .’s reign. The collective wis­
dom of Parliament from time to time
deemed it wise to provide against the ac­
cident of foolish young or old men, of nil
classes, being persuaded to celebrate
marriage late in the day, after, perhaps,
partaktog of the bottle freely at banquets
and suppers. Also the debates in Parlia­
ment show that it was held that the mar­
riage service was not a thing to he
thoughtlessly and lightly entered upon.
It is likewise generally understood that
the canons cannot be altered without
royal license from the Queen issued to
the Canterbury aud York Cqnvocations,
"who must be unanimously agreed as to
any chauge.

Why Uncle P hil Broke the Sabbath.
There are a great many people, M their
religion, that 1‘em indm eof ‘ TJnclePhil,”
a pious old darky of the old times in
Texas.
"Well, Phil was a fervent CMistian,
with a great gift of prayer. H e attend­
ed all the Saturday Mght prayer-meetMgs on the neighboring plantations, and
could pray louder and longer than any
of the bretMen. But Phil had one weak­
ness, he dearly loved money, and, differ­
ent from the negro generally, loved to
hoard it.
Near b y us lived a man who, not troub­
led b y any scruples, would pay Phil a
dollar to work in Ms fields on Sunday.
One Sunday Mght Phil came home after
dark. I accosted him with:
“ Where have you been, Phil?”
“ Oh, jest knocking about, rnassa.”
“ You have been working for Miller.” .
“ Well, you see, rnassa, the old fellow
is in weeds, and he jest showed me a sil­
ver dollar and I jest could’nt stand it.”
“ Ain’t yon afraid the devil will get
you for breaking the Sabbath?”
Phil scratched Ms head a minute and
said:
‘ ‘I guess the Lord’ll ’souse me, rnassa.”
“ No. H e says, ‘ remember the Sab­
bath day and keep it h oly.’ ”
Phil W'ent off looking pretty sober,
and it was not long before I heard Ms
voice in fervent prayer hack of the barn,
so I thought I would slip down near
enough to hear.
“ Oh, Lord!” I heard M m say, “ I have
tliis day ripped and teared, cussed and
sveared at them confounded oxen of Mil­
ler’s and jest broke the Sabbath day.
Oh, Lord, please forgive m e; please for­
give me, for Yon knows I ’se nothing hut
a miserable heathen anyhow'. I f You’ll
jest forgive me this time I ’ll never do it
again as long as I live, ’cepten he gives
me $2.50 a day.”
A t tMs point I was obliged to heat a
hasty retreat, but I am thinking that
poor Phil isn’t the only §2.50 CMistian
in this world.
An Adroit Swordsman.
Pulaski, as is well known, was as
adroit a swordsman as he was perfect M
korsemausMp, and he ever rode a pow­
erful and fleet charger. During the re­
treat of the American army tlmmgk
Newr Jersey, in the darkest hour of our
national adversity, PulasM was, with a
small party of horsemen, pursued b y a
party of British cavalry, the leader of
which wras as good a horseman and
mounted nearly as well as Pulaski.
PulasM rode in the rear of Ms detach­
ment, and the British Captain came in
advance of those he commanded. The
morning sun was shining brightly, cast­
ing oblique shadows, and, as the pur­
sued party entered a long narrow lane,
Pulasld, having satisfied himself of the
superior speed and command of Ms
horse over that of Ms pursuer, slack­
ened Ms pace and kept Ms horse to the
side of the lane farthest from the sun.
The pursuing officer came up in hot
haste, Ms sword elevated so as to make
the decisive cut upon PulasM as soon as
he could reach Mm. PulasM rode as
though he heard not the advance upon
him—yet he kept his eyes fixed warily
upon the ground on the side of Ms horse
toward the sun on Ms right. As soon as
he saw the shadow of Ms pursuer's horse
gain upon Mm, and found that the
horse’s head, b y the shadow, had gained
about half the length of Ms own horse’s
body, he gave the sudden sword cut of
St. George, with Ms powerful arm, and
saw the decapitated head of the English
officer follow the stroke.
His mathematical eye had measured
the distance b y the position of the
shadow so accurately, and Ms position
giving a long hack reach to Ms right
aim, while the cross stroke o f Ms pursner must have been made at a much
shorter distance to have taken effect,
that the pursuing officer lost Ms head
before he suspected that his proximity
was known, or that a blow was medi­
tated.
Floating Island.
Among the many natural curiosities
of Tuolumne county it is not generally
known that there is a “ floating island.”
Up in the “ SisMyous,” lying like a
pearl in the great mountam chain, is
Squaw lake, a beautiful sheet of water,
now utilized b y a mining company as a
reservoir. Por many years the lake has
been a favorite and delightful resort for
fishing parties, and contained nearly iu
its center an island, comprising about
an acre of ground, covered with luxu­
riant grass and a growth of willow and
alder. It was never dreamed that the
pretty little island was not terra firma,
but when the bulkhead across the outlet
of the lake dammed np its waters the
island rose slowly until it had been ele­
vated frilly sixteen feet above, its original
level. It" would he a question for the
naturalist rather than the geologist to
determine the age of tMs floating island,
as it is evidently made up entirely of
decayed vegetation. Perhaps at some
remote period the roots of a tree, uptom
b y the mountain storm, drifting out in
the lake, formed the nucleus fromwMeh
the island has grown, hut it seems sin­
gular that it should have remained an­
chored and unchangeable in its position.
The locality is much frequented b y
pleasure-seekers, who will hereafter no­
tice the increased elevation.— Jackson­

Our Bodies A lter Death.
Within a very near approach to
truth, the human family inhabiting the
earth has been estimated at 1,000,000,000; the annual loss b y death is 18,000,000. Now, the weight of the animal
matter of tins immense body cast into
the grave is no less than 634,000 tons,
and its decomposition produces 9,000 000,000,000 cubic feet of matter. The
vegetable productions of the earth clear
away from the earth the gose§ thus
generated, aud decomposing and as­
similating them for their own increase.
TMs cirme of changes has been going
on ever since man became an occupier
of file earth. H e feeds on the lower
animals and on the seeds of plants,
wMch in clue time become a part of
himself. The lower animals feed upon
the herbs and grasses, wMch, in their
turn, become the animal; then, b y its
death, again pass into the atmosphere,
and are ready once more to he assimi­
lated b y plants, the earth or bone sub­
stance alone remaintog where it is de­
posited, and not even there unless
prosecuted as a common swindler.
A Horrible Duel. "
A horrible story of a duel between two
inhabitants of M orocco is reported from
Oran. The two principals, both occu­
pying a good position, were enamored
of the same beauty, and agreed to fight
for her possession.
The combatants
met at a short distance from Mequinez,
each being armed with a carbine, a re­
volver andahunting-knife; and mounted
on horseback. The duelists rushed at
one another at full speed, wMchresulted
in one of the horses being killed, and
the fight was continued on foot. After
the two men had received several.bullets
in different parts of their bodies they
closed- and commenced a violent and
horrible struggle with their knives,
One of the men thrust Ms knife into the
other’s tiiroat, and received a cut from
Ms enemy which opened the whole of
tia chest. T oo weak to use their arms,
the dying men took to biting one an­
other, and expired, the one with Ms
teeth closing on the other’s cheek, who
gave up Ms last breath in endeavoring
to rip open M s adversary’s body. Tbe
object of the' encounter was thus gained
as each prevented the other ohoining,
the hand of the girl, who must in future
endeavor only to captivate one admirer
at a-time if she wishes to secure ahus-

A Detective’s Euse.
A man was wanted b y the police, says
the London Sporting and Dram atic
Nevjs, and his skill in the arts of “ mak­
ing u p ” and dodging Ms would-be
captors was so considerable that, for a
lofrg time, he escaped detection. At
length a clever detective was pu t on Ms
track, and first of all he began to in ­
quire about M s associates. One of the
most.intimate of them was, it appeared,
a certain young woman, and about her
be first of all found out everything. H e
bad reason to suspect that she was acluainted with the fhgitive’s Mding-place.
5o the first thing to he done was to fol­
low her one Saturday afternoon, When
she was free from her employment. An
innocent young detective in the guise of
a carpenter, was told off to watch, and
endeavored to strike up an acquaintance,
in wMch design he was not very success­
ful, though he ascertained that Kingston
was her destination that afternoon. T o
K ingston he went, and traced her to a
house occupied b y an old man, about
whom the neighbors knew no more than
that he was an old man. H e was an
elderly invalid, never went to the door,
never went out. saw nobody; and how
was he to he caught and examined?
There was nothing known about him to
justify the police in entering' the house,
and the detective walked round the place,
iu company with tho ‘ ‘carpenter, ’ ’ wonder­
ing what to do next. A t the hack of the
house was a garden, in wMch was a ken­
nel containing a Mg dog, or rather not
containing him, for he wns lving out in
the sun at the end of Ms chain. No
sign of life was visible in the house.
“ Jump over the wall and Mck that d o g ;'
then Mde behind the summer-house,”
said the detective to the “ carpenter.”
Hi a moment the young man wns over
the wall, and the dog was howling from
the effects of a M ck in the ribs. Neigh­
boring dogs joined in the chorus, and at
the window appeared the old gentleman.
No one was about; the dog continued to
howl, and incautiously the owner came
down the garden to see what was the
matter.
Beneath the well-made gray
wig the detective’s keen eyes recognized
tlie object of Ms search, and in a mo­
ment the arrest was made.
The Cliinese Cuisine.
The shark’s fin is a delicacy wMch is.
rarely omitted from the menu of a CMnese feast. It is one of the “ great clas­
sic dishes” forming the pieces de re­
sistance of an official banquet, and is
eaten either in the form of a joint, gar­
nished with crabs, or served up in small
pieces in cups placed before each guest.
The consumption of rats, though it
seems to he somewhat on the decline, is
the cause of a very important traffic in
the principal towns of certain districts,
and especially in a street in Canton
called Hing-Loung-Kai.
Here these
animals may he seen in enormous multi­
tudes hanging up in the shop windows
among chickens and ducks and geese.
They are for the most part dried and
salted, and when in that state are es­
teemed a sovereign recipe for those
whose hah- is getting thin.
Beside the dishes peculiar to the Ce­
lestials alone, there are a variety of dif­
ferences in their mode of eating and
cooking food unknown to our euiBine,
Hams, for instance, are kept for a year,
or even two years, buried in heaps of
sawdust, wMch imparts to them a taste
of wood much appreciated b y the gour­
mets. Broad beans are fermented, and,
after being mixed with salt, form a very
favorite sauce eaten with all sorts of
viands. Finally, the habit of eating
“ rotten eggs,” wMch sounds so strange
to European ears, is explained b y show­
ing that the so-called rotten egg is only
a duck’s egg preserved for a long time iu
an air-tiglit envelope made of ashes,
chalk, tea-leaves, and a number o f other
strange substances, until the yelk turns
first to a green color, and then to a fine
black, when it is considered fit to he
eaten.
Circumstantial Evidence.
Many innocent men have suffered for
the crimes, of others. About forty years
ago, a gentleman was tried and convict­
ed upon circumstantial evidence of the
murder of his niece. She was heard to
exclaim, “ Don’t Mil me!” and that in­
stant a p i s t o l or fowltog-piece was fired
off.
Under these circumstances the
gentleman was convicted and executed.
Near twelve months after, the niece, who
had eloped,' arrived in England, and,
hearing of the affair, elucidated the
whole transaction. It appeared that she

“ Don’t kill me,

she uttered these words, a fowling-piece
was discharged b y a sportsman in a

eloped from her uncle’s house; and the

Tlie Effect o f Coffee Again.
Dr. Bichardson, the eminent English
scientist, in respect to the popular no­
tion that coffee is an unhealthy bever­
age, that it keeps up a constant irrita­
tion of the stomach, and brings on de­
pression of spirits, etc. There was a
great deal of truth in that statement,
says the doctor, as coffee cannot he tak­
en in excess without producing dyspep­
sia and irritation, hut moderately used
it is an invigorating, healthful, and
wholesome drink, bringing a man’s best
energies into p la y. The quantity taken,
however, must_not.be large, and should
he good.
Dr. Bock, of Leipsic, another cele­
brated scientist, says: “ The nervousness
and peevishness of our times are cMeffy
attributable to tea and coffee; the_ di­
gestive organs of confirmed coffee drink­
ers are in a state of cM'oMc derangement,
wliich reacts on the brain, produemg
fretful and lacMymose moods. Fine
ladies addicted to strong coffee have a
characteristic temper, wMch I might
describe as a mania for acting the perse­
cuted saint. Cocoa and chocolate is
neutral M its psycMc effects, and is real­
ly the most harmless of our fasMonable
drinks.”— Scicnlifie American.

Sickness in the Fann-Honse.
Dr. Goddar, of Massachusetts, was
once asked, and answered, the following
question:
“ Have you seen sickness produced b y
decaying vegetables in the cellars of
farm-houses ? ”
“ I think I have. F or instance, the
ease of a farmer of means, his wife and
five children. Four sickened in September’of typhoid fever, and three died.
Tn the cellar were found half-decayed
cabbages and other vegetables, half a
barrel of old fish-brine, Mid filth gen­
erally, so that the smell was noticeable
rods from the bouse, when cleared out
b y the doctor’s direction.”
Through that cellar, typhoid fever
sneaked mto the house. A writer in the
New York Times says: “ Miasm is the
most subtle foe of the farmer's home.
I t is generated in Ms barn-yard, cess­
pool, cellar; soaks into Ms well, and aj>pears on 1ns table in the form of limpid
water; enters his bedroom b y night, and
poisons the very' qir h e breathes.”
And all this from the want of a little
intelligence and a little painstaMng,.

A Democratic View ot Garfield.
E xcluding political rivalries from
view fo r a moment, it must be allow­
ed that there is much in tlie career o f
James A . Garfield fo r every true A m er­
ican to take pride m . I t is our boast
that in this land there is no honor or
d ig rity to w hich the sons o f th e hum ­
blest person m ay not, by dilligence,
attain. T lie candidate before us car­
ries with him something o f this heart­
w arm ing lustre. Thirty-five years ago
he was a bare-footed hoy, driving a
horse on the tow patli o f a canal.
L ater lie was busy at a carpenter’s
bench, toilin g at daybreak and fa r in­
to the night to earn the means where­
with to purchase knowledge.
U naid­
ed hy any friends, save h is own w ill­
ing hands and am bitious brain, he se­
cured the education o f a collegian, and
began tlie public part o f his own life
w ell-equipped in intellect for tlie bat­
tle. Surely, D em ocrats and R epubli­
cans alike may stop discussion fo r a
m om ent and join in at least one round
applause- fo r the success w hich has
thus far attended a career so gallantly
opened.
On e o f tlie finest homes, a lot o f fif­
teen acres w ith good buildings, an ex­

samples are taken from the steno­

Berrien and Oronoko townships are

tlieir bridge across the riv er at Berrien
Springs. They wore at the expense o f
raising the bridge fo r tlie accom m oda­

the M ay Graliam asks to be allow ed to
pass. T here appears but one w ay out
o f tlie dilemma, and that is to build a
draw in the bridge.
It is not at all
probable that the d r a w ' will ever be
open, but in order to guard against im ­
positions. A substantial draw w ill
cost them about $2,500. T hey have

alliance to Greenbackism . They were
tlie best o f Greenbackers so long as
there w as a chance to m ake $30 per

where there was a hope o f gettin g an
office, as in th e case o f “R . Y . C.” the

Some o f those who are raising tlieir
three to ten year old children on the
streets o f this town will live to wish
they had enforced home rule and pres­
ence more, rigidly, we mistrust. There
are a half dozen or more young lads
whose parents are abundantly able to
care for them and have comfortable
homes, yet they take less care o f their
children than o f their pig in the pen.

Diseases of the Stomach, or Dyspep­
sia, What Is It?
T he thousands o f individuals who
labor under th e com plaint bearing this
name have no other opinion o f it th a n .
that it is a disease o t th e stomach. ’
T hey have been so inform ed and be­
cause they liave been so distressed fla­
tulence, acidity, sinking faintness, and
a sensation at th e p it o f the stomach,
which they cannot fu llly discribe, they
think it certainly a disease- o f the
stom ach, and more especially if it be
attended w ith nause.Yor vom iting. Is
it really th e stom ach which has be­
com e diseased, or does it arise from
some other source? W here is the
stom ach situated? Its fo rm some­
what resembles an alem bic or retort,
the largest part being on the le ft side,
betw een the left lobe o f the liver and
side, then passing under the liv.er,
term inates in the small intestines near
the. centre o f the body. The location
o f the stomach, therefore, precludes
the possibility o f the unpleasant sen­
sation, as faintness, flatulence, acidity,
&c., being a disease o f the stomach, as
some suppose. The parts where these
sensations are experienced is tlie loca­
tion o f the small intestines, and why
such affections should be fe lt in tlie
small intestines, we shall undertake to
explain.
Sourness and Acidity.— T he principal
constituents o f the gastric ju ice is
muriatic a cid ; this muriatic acid dis­
solves in to small particles th e food
taken in to the stomach, after which
the fo o d passes from tlie stomach
through tlie pylorus in to tlie small in­
testines, where it meets with the bile,
form ed from the liver. W hen the bile
is o f a healthy character, if contains a
large quantity o f alkaline compounds.
This alkali unites with the muriatic
acid o f the gastric juice, and neutral­
izes it, form in g with it salts o f muri­
ate o f soda, amonia, and potass, which
are somewhat purgative. W hen the
liver becomes diseased, it cannot pro­
duce healthy bile. T he bile may be
th ick or viscid, producing costiveness,
gall-stones, &c. A t other times it is
thin and o f acid character. T he acid
character o f tlie bile accounts fo r the
faintness and sinking feelings, ju st be­
low the pit o f the stomach. The acid­
ity is occasioned by th e bile having
lost its alkaline properities, by which
the acidity o f the gastric ju ice cannot
be neutralized. Sometimes this thin
acrid bile exists in such quantities as
■to regurgitate from the small intes­
tines into the stomach, and vom iting
fo llo w s ; and i f at the same tim e being
sufficiently irritable to excite inflam­
mation, tlie patient will have frequent
attacks, violent pains, sense o f tw ist­
in g or griping, or cholara morbus.
F latulence is occasioned by the decom ­
position o f the bile, by which carbon­
ic acid gas is disengaged—Dyspepsia,
so called, is therefore exclusively a dis­
ease o f tlie liver, and although relief
m ay in some instances he afforded to
the distress w hich many experience,
by the usual practice, yet no perma­
nent cure can take place until the.
fev er is resorted to by healthy action.
The num ber o f persons under a dis­
ease o f the L iver are very g re a t; there
are hut fe w who are free from it, yet
m any little suspect that a disease o f
that organ is tlie true character o f
their indisposition.
Sallovmess o f the'Skin is in conse­
quence o f the bile having becom e de­
com posed and rendered thin, by which
it becom es capable o f bein g absorbed
in to the blood, giving it a yellow tinge
and evinces its presence sometimes
by dark yellow ish spots upon the face
and neck.
W hen the bile is thin and
acrid, and the blood loaded with it,
such irritation and inflam m ation often
arises, as to produce canker, erysipelas,
humors, and not unfrequently fevers,
as billions fever, ague and fever, & c.;
the patient feels weak and debilitated.
This inflammation often progresses (if
neglected) until th e spleen becomes
affected and a pain is fe lt in the side.
Tlie heart becom es weak, and pain
and palpitations are often fe lt in that
region. The L iv er itself, often be­
com es so weak, that by tlie least exer­
tion, as going up stairs, or rising a bill,
the blood is throw n into the liver with
such force as to cause it to enlarge,
and the patient experiences difficulty
iu breathing until the blood has had
tim e to pass from the liver. This
state o f disease frequently progresses
to ulceration o f the L iv er itself,’ and
other parts o f the system, w hich from
any cause m ay have becom e weak, and
the circulation o f the blood impeded,
giving tim e fo r tlie deposition o f dis­
eased matter.
Headaehe, dizziness,
momentary loss o f sight— pain in the
side, sinking, all gone sensations, waterbrasli, heartburn, sour stomach,
belching up o f wind, dullness, no dis­
position to stir around, food does not
digest well, aching between the shoul­
ders or under the shoulders, pains in
the arms, legs, knees, &c., sickness at
the stomach, vom iting, had taste in
th e m outh in the morning, hot flashes
succeeded by cold chills or shivering,
weakness in the kidneys and spine,
great debility on exertion, no inclina­
tion to w ork or go from home, ner­
vousness, wakefulness at night, or un­
pleasant dreams, palpitation or dis­
tress about the heart, numbness, wan­
dering and shooting pains w ith great

The Minister’s Horse. ‘
A n intelligent foreigner, -visiting New
England 100 years ago, would have no­
ticed two prominent traits as character­
izing the people. One was singleness
o f purpose; th e other was the, resolute­
ness with which everything interfering
with the attainment of that purpose was
p a t aside.
I f a young man proposed to he a fann­
er, or a sailor, or a merchant, or a law­
yer, or a physician, or a clergyman, he
went forward to what h e had made up
his mind to he, in as straight a road as
circumstances would permit.
H e might not travel as the crow flies
—man is seldom allowed in this discip­
linary life to take the shortest line—bnt
he tcenf, jogging doggedly along, up hill
and down lull, over streams and through
marshes. la k e the Homan soldier, he
lived frugally, and carried, as little im­
pedimenta (the significant Latin name
fo r baggage) as possible. H e laid aside
every weight, and did one thing.
An anecdote of an old-time minister
illustrates how these two traits gave
character to th e religions life.
Kev. Noah Benedict was one o f three
pastors whose united service in the
church, at 'Woodbury, CL, covered the
long period o f 150 years. H e was a good
man, h a d a high rank as a preacher, and,
next to his pulpit and family, loved a
first-rate horse.
B ut his pulpit was his first love, and
everything which was likely to tempt
him to withdraw his mind from that was
put- out o f the way.
H e had a yon ng horse, sound, gentle,
graceful and fast. Everybody in the
parish admired the ministers horse.
B ut one day, to the surprise of his
friends, Mr. Benedict sold his favorite.
One o f his astonished neighbors asked
the reason.
“ H e was growing
nly,” replied
the pastor.
“ B u t X thought him a very orderly
horse.5'
“ Ho, hew as growing quite unruly,”
answered the minister; “ he once got
into the pulpit, and I thought it was
time to part with him .”
The zealous clergyman would allownotlnng to interfere with his purpose of
life. I f any of onr readers would under­
stand our Lord's injunction as to cutting
o ff the hand and plucking out the eye,
let them read Matt, xriii. S, % in the
light o f this anecdote.
A cots is in itself a history. There
was once a lost city whieh owes its place
to a coin. F or over a thousand years no
one knew where Pandosia was. History
told us that at Pandosia K ing Pyrrhus
collected those farces with which he
overran Italy, and that he established a
m int there ; hut no one could put their
finger on Pandosia. Eight years ago a
join came under the sharp eyes o f a
numismatist. There were the letters
Pandosia inseribecl on it, but, what was
better, there was an emblem, indicative
of a well-known river, the Crathis. Then
everything was revealed with the same
certainty as if the piece o f money had
been an atlas, and Pandosia, the mythi­
cal city, was at once given its proper
position in Bmttinm. How, a coin may
be valuable for artistic merit, but when
it elucidates a doubtful point in history
or geography its worth is very m uch en­
hanced. This silver coin, winch did not
weigh more than a quarter o f a dollar,
because it cleared n p the mystery of
Pandosia, was worth to the British
Museum $1,000, the price they paid
for it.
Instinct o f Animals.
M uch is said and written, nowadays,
about the reasoning power o f animals.
B ut did y ou ever hear of a leech reason­
in g ? Says a medical m an: “ I had
occasion lately to keep some leeches and
water beetles; they were put into round
open glass vessels, about six inches
high, and about two-thirds full o f water.
A medical leech whieh was put into one
o f these vessels got out, and within an
hour after it was found on the table, and
replaced in the water. How, although
the vessel was left uncovered as before,
this leech never again tried to get out.
A horse-leech and two beetles treated in
the same way did the same thing once,
and once only; each preferred the water
to the dry table; and on being replaced
they never tried to get out again; there­
fore th ey had been taught b y experience.
Is this not a high order o f intelligence ?”
B ands o f music are forbidden to play
on most o f the large bridges o f the
world. A constant succession o f sound­
waves, especially such as dome from the
playing of a g ood hand, w ill excite the
wires to vibration. A t first the vibra­
tions are very slight, but they will in­
crease as the sound-waves continue to
come. The principal reason w hy bands
are not allowed to play while crossing
certain bridges, the suspension bridge at
Niagara for instance, is that if followed
b y soldiers, or processions o f any kind,
they wOl keep step with the music, and
this regular step o f a crowd or company
o f soldiers would cause the wires to vi­
brate. A t the suspension bridge mili­
tary companies are n ot allowed to march
across in regular step, but must break
ranks. The regular trotting gait of a
large d og across a suspension is more
dangerous to the bridge than a heavily
loaded wagon drawn b y a team, of horses.
Hari-kari is a form of
suicide performed in Japan b y cutting
open the abdomen b y two crosswise cuts
with a short sword. Hearly all Japanese
officials carry on their person two
swords; one long, to fight an enemy
with, and the other short, to perform
hari-kari with, if their own honor is at
all damaged. I t is a very common prac­
tice, as b y so doing a man’s honor is
saved. Officials are often commanded
to M il themselves b y this method when
b y any act they have fallen into disgrace,
and b y so doing their children inherit
all their property and their father’s p o ­
sition, but n ot so if the suicide has taken
place unbidden. Persons who have suf­
fered unendurable affront-, which cannot
otherwise he satisfied, sometimes ML
themselves in this way, and thus satisfy
their revenge on the enemy.

The Parson’s Shoe.
I n a little town near Providence the
venerable pastor called on a pious fami­
ly, one evening, and was invited to con­
duct family worship. T he 3-year-old
p et o f the fam ily noticed, as the preach­
er was kneeling, that the sole of one of
his shoes was partially off at one end.
The baby, who had been in a black­
smith shop watching them shoe horses,
quietly ran and g ot a hammer, and b e ­
gan to bang on the parson’s shoe-sole.
The reverend brother kept on praying,
but the rest of the fam ily had to keep
too m uch langlr in them to b e much
benefited thereby.

FOR RESTORING GRAY HAIR TO ITS
NATURAL V ITA L ITY AND COLOR.
I t is a most agreeable dressing, which
is at once harmless and effectual, for pre­
serving the hair. It restores, with the
gloss and freshness o f youth, faded or gray,
light, and red hair, to a rich brown, o r deep
black, as m ay he desired. B y its use thin
hair is thickened, and baldness often
th ough not always cured. It checks falling
o f the hair immediately, and causes a new
growth in all cases where the glands are
not decayed; while to brashy, weak, or
otherwise diseased hair, it imparts vitality
and strength, and renders it pliable.
The V igok cleanses the scalp, cures and
prevents the formation o f dandruff; and,
by its cooling, stimulating, and soothing
properties, it heals most if n ot all o f the
humors and diseases peculiar to the scalp,
keeping it cool, clean, and soft, under
w hich conditions diseases o f the scalp and
hair are impossible.
A s a Dressing for Ladies' Hair
The T ig o n is incomparable. It is color­
less. contains neither oil n or dye, and will
not soil white cambric.
It imparts an
agreeable and lasting perfume, and as an
article for the toilet it is economical and
unsurpassed in its excellence.

Dr. Price's reputation has been acquired cuudid,
honest dealing and veal’s of successful practice.
My practice', not due o f experiment, but founded
on the laws o f Nature, with years o f experience aud
evidence to suslain it, does not tear down, make
sick to make well; no harsh treatment, no (rifling,
no ilattering. We know the cause and the remedy
needed, no guess work, but knowledge gained b£
years o f experience in the treatment o f Chronic dis
eases exclusively: no encouragement wit hot t
prospect. Candid in onr opinion, reasonable
our charges, claim not to know everything, or to
cure everybody, but do claim to reason and common
sense. W e invite the sick, no matter what, their
ailment, to call, investigate before they abandon
hope, makeinterrogatioh and decide for themselves.
It will cost nothing, as consultation is free. Visits

F A lm POETRY.
A certain young woman named Hanpah
Slipped down on apiece of banana;
She shrieked, and 0 myJd l
And more stars she spied
Than Ixflonged to the star-spangled banner.
A gentleman sprang to assist ber,
And picked np ber muff and her wrister.
“ Did you fall, ma’am, be-cried.
u Do you think,” she replied,
“ I Rat down for the fuu of it, mister?”
T here seems to have been a collision
in legal circles in New York.
The
D a ily R egister chronicles a “ Convey­
ance Overturned.” This reminds us of
a lawyer who told his wife he had heen
“ working like a horse ” all day “ draw­
ing conveyances.” — A lban y L a w Jour­
nal.
A certain painter wits bragging of his
wonderful command of color to a friend
one day. His friend did not seem to
take it quite all in. “ W h y,” exclaimed
the painter, “ do yon know that there
are but three painters in the world, sir,
who understand color?” “ And who are
they ?” at last asked the friend. “ W hy
sir, I am one, and—and—aud—I forget
tlie names of the other tw o !”
An Oil City gentleman who had trav­
eled in Europe said he was at a dinner
one day in Paris, and while telling a
story was attacked with a sudden and
continued fit of sneezing. W hen lie
ceased a Hussian gentleman at another
table, named Plitcbeekee, turned around
and complimented M m on Ms correct
pronunciation of the Hussian language.
A nice distinction — Housekeeper to
milkman— “ M y friend, you put water
in your milk.” “ Oh, no I don’t, ma’am.”
“ But I am sure you do.” “ Oh, no,
ma’am.” “ Now will you say solemnly
that you do not put water in your
m ilk?” “ W ell, ma’am, well, I must
say that sometimes I put some water in
the can and then put tlie milk in that,
hut I never put water in the milk. ”
“ M e n should not allow their wives to
split wood,” says a contemporary. This
is rather inconsiclerate. H ow can a man
refuse when Ms -wife comes up with tears
in her eyes and says, “ Now do, dear,
let me go down cellar and split wood for
an hour to get np an appetite.”
“ Y ou made a fool of m e,” said an ir­
ritated man to his wife, “ and that’s the
way you got me to marry yon .” “ M y
love,” sweetly responded the wife, “ you
do yourself an injustice. Call yourself
a fool, if you please, but remember tbat
you are in all respects a self-made man.”
A firem an on a Minnesota railroad
engine climbed out on the pilot, at the

was lying on the track—a man of straw,
wMch miscMevous boys had placed
there.
T he leaves of geranium are an ex­
cellent application for cuts, when the
slrin is rubbed off, and other wounds of
tbe kind. One or two leaves must be
bruised and applied on linen to tbe part,
and the wound will become cicatrized
in a very short time.

W hen a man’s wife comes in and sees
him razor in hand and with his face all
lather, and asks him • “ Are you shav­

answer : “ No, I ’m blacking tbe stove,
but it’s human nature to so reply.—

J. O. O gden , of lizabeth, N. J., has
come iuto possessiou of a time-piece be­
tween two and tM-ee centuries old, and
it is iu a state of rigorous activity and
usefulness yet. The works are brass;
the pendulum is an unpolished piece of
lead hung on a tMck, rusty wire; the
face is of brass.
An Illinois gentleman counts among
his treasures, and very rightly, too, a
quaint old ambrotype of Abraham LincoM. It shows a gaunt and awkward
man of 37 seated in an old rush-bottomed
chair, and dressed in well-worn dark
clothes, with an old-fasMoned stock, and
Ms uncombed hair standing out in all
directions.
D u r i n g the course of some excava­

to be buried before he surrendered to

O n Jan. 1, 1875; of 176,276 British
soldiers, 11,214 were from five feet ten
inches to five feet eleven inches; 5,814
from fire feet eleven inches to six feet;
3,905 six feet and upward. The propor­
tion of men under five feet five inches
was sixty-five per 1,000. A n observant
foreigner once remarked tbat, whereas
•in Continental armies the men were
more stalwart than tlie officers, the con­
verse was the case in the British arnrf.
T he Saturday R eview says that the
Cairo donkey b o y is the incarnation of
Oriental, strange, conrenand wonderful in Egypt.
His actiriiy, his ready tact, his good
temper, Ms aridity for backsheesh, and,
above all, Ms knowledge of English, are
astonishing. Many Englishmen accus­
tomed to winter in E gypt retain a don­
key b o y for the season, and, in cases of
severe illness, one of thesemarrelous fac­
totums has been known to become a ten­
der, attentive, and vigilant nurse. The
average donkey b o y speaks better En­
glish than the average dragoman.
The following old rhyme contains the
names of all the English sovereigns,
since the conquest, in cM-onological or
d er:
First William, the Norman, then William, his son,
Henry, Stephen and Henry, then Richard and JolrnTliou Henry, the third, Edwards one, two and three,
And again, after Richard, three Henry's we see.
Two Edwards, third Richard—if rightly I guess_
Two Henrys, sixth Edward, Queen Mary Queen Bess;
Then Jamie, the Scotsman, and Charles, whom they
BlGW,
Yet received, after Cromwell, another Charles, too*
Then Janies, the second, ascended the throne,
’
And good William aud Maiy together came on,
Till Anne, Georges four and fourth William, all past
God sent us Victoria; may she long he the last.
J ohn Smith is dead. That fine young man
We’ll never see no m ore;
He was a member o f our club
8incel864.
His private virtues were immense,
•
HiB manner free and bluff;
k
He wore a paper collar
And was never known to muff.
His nose was Roman and bis eyes
Continually were peeled;
He made a splendid umpire
And beautifulleft field.
Though not a matrimonial man
He dearly loved a match,
And, like his sister, had but few
Superiors on th e 11catch.”
Buthe is gone. With ins and outs
Forever he 1b done.
He broke his heart and burst his spleen
In making a homo run.
D raco was tbe. author of tbe first
written code of laws at Athens, wMch he
is supposed to have published in the
fourth year of the thiriy-ninth Olympiad,
621B. C. H e was of distinguished birth,
honored for M s severe manners and M b
large experience in public affairs, and
the people of Athens, a prey of anarchy,
besought him to give them a code of
laws. The system wMch he proposed
linked together civil and moral duties.
H e took the citizen at tbe moment of
Ms birth, prescribed the manner in
w M chhe should b o nourished and edu­
cated, follow ed' him with directions
through the different epochs of Ufa and
flattered himself that he should TtmV«
men free and virtuous. The penalty of
death was to be inflicted for almost ev­
ery crime. The slightest offense, he
said, deserved death,' and b e knew n o
punishment m ore severe for the great­
est. So violent , a code could not last,
and within thirty years Athens was
again in^ anarchy. Draco died a t the
culmination of his glory upon th e id e o f
