From theA Wine, for S THK FATHER. fllOM THE l*hord Was the mightiest man in the arish. He stood one day in the parson's iudy, tall and grave. " I have a son," he aid, "and wish him christeuod." " What shall be his name f " " Finn, after my father." " And the godfathers y " Thord told their names, and they wore e best men of the parish, and •women f his own kin. " Is there anything more ? " asked the arson ; he looked up Thord stood a moment. " I would like o have himbaptized alone," ho said. " That is to say, on a week day 'r '* " Saturday next; at 12 o'clock." " Is there anything more ? " " No, that is all." Thord fumbled with hi.*** cap j lie Was bout to leave. Then the parson went might to him, and grasped his hand. God give," said he, looking into his yes, " that this child bo a blessing unto jee." Sixteen years after that day Thord x>od once more in the parson's study. Thou keepest on quito Well," said the arson; he could see no change in him. " For I have no grief," answered Thord. To this the parson said nothing, but af- ter a while he asked, " What is thy er- and to-night ? " This night I havo como for my son, te is to be confirmed to-morrow." " He is a gooa boy." " I would not pay the parson until I cnew what place he was to have among ne oth :r boys." " He is number one." " I hear so, and these ten dollars are r yo .' "is th 're anything mora ? " " No, that is all." And Thord left. Eigh' years passer' aw y, and then, one iv. ngi,;iii noise was ueard before the arson's study, for many men were com- ng and Thord at their head. Tho pur- im looked up and knew him. "Thou omest in great number, to-day," he said. I huve come to hive read the bans of my son. ne is going: to marry Karen torliden, daughter of Gudmund, who ::inds here." " She is the richest girl in the parish." " People say so," answered Thord ; he moothed awuy tho hair from the foro- ead. The parson sat a minute in deep thought [e said nothing, but put down the names his book and the men signed. Thord lid three dollars on the table, " I shall have only one," said the par- on. 1 know it, but he is my only child, nd I wish todo all this well." The par- ou took the money. This is the third time, Thord, thou tinniest here for thy son." " But this time is also the last," said hord, " for I am now done." He fold- 1 his pocket-book, bade farewell, and r ent away, the other men following slow- y- T( n years after that day, the father nd son were rowing in calm weather, ver tho water to Storliden, to speak bout the wedding feast. " This seat is not firm under me," said he son ; he rose to make it right. But he board he stood upon slipped. He hrew up his afius, shrieked, and fell in o the water. Tiike hold of this o:ir," said the fath- he stood up and held it out. But when the son had made afewstrokes ho prow stiff. Wait a minute," cried tho father ; he rowed toward him. But the son fell back, ooked longingly at the father, and sank. Thord eould not believe it. He kept he boat still and stared at the spot whore he son had gone down, as if he must come up once more. Some bubbles rose, lomcfewmore, then one big one that jurst, and smooth lay the water like •lass. For three days and three nights the *>eople saw the father rowing about this 2 spot, taking neither food nor sleep; sought for his son. On the third day, ioward morning, he found him and bore liiui home, up over the hills. About a year passed away. Then, one late evening in the fall, the parson heard somebody groping in the entry and feel- ing for the lock. He opened the door and a tall but stooping man came in; he was thin and had gray hairs. Tho par- son looked at him for a long while before he knew him ; it was Thord. Thou comest late," said the parson, and he Rtood still before him. Yes. I come late," said Thord; he sat down. The parson sat down, too, as if he wait- ed. There was silence for a long time. Then said Thord : "I have something with me I wish togive to the poor." lie stood up, laid money on the table, and sat down again. The parson counted it. " It is a great sum," said he. " Half of what I have; I sold my farm to-day." The parson sat in long silence. At last he asked mildly, " What will you do now." " Something better." They sat awhile ; Thord with his eyes on the floor, the parson with his eyes on Thord. Then said the parson, slowly and very mildly : "Now L think thy sou has at l;ist become a blessing to thee." " I think so, too," said Thord; he look- ed up, and two tears dropped heavily down his cheeks. " I wish I had your head," said a lady to her lawyer who had just solved a knot- ty point for her. " And I wish I had your heart," respon- ded the lawyer. It was not long beforo the lawyers head and the lady's heart went into part- nership for life IN ACORNISH CAVERN—AS ESCAPE. It was a clear, balmy day in June when I, Richard Dawson, midshipman, at hohte in Corn well after a two yean, cruise, look- ed np three of my old schoolmates for a r>w along the coast in a yawl hired of a waterman, and well freighted with all th'it was needed to make the day a mertfy one. Away we went, four of the most light- h a ted lads living. Bob Treluw ny stroke, myself with a pair of sculls, Tom Davies in tho bow-—rowing at random ; and Lillie Finch, our little coxswain, saucily hugging liinmelf on the dwarfish stature which exempted himfrom any greater share in our labors. With many a quip at each other's ex- pense, our laughter waking up the echoes Of the curiously vniiu'd dirt's towering above us, we glided along-the picturesque coast; sometimes passing beneath huge blocks of granite, which seemed to need but a touch to topple them down upon our frail craft; Sometimes catching glimpses of tiny coves, whose beauty BO foreign scenery I havo over visited ex- ceeded. Into one of these our coxswain Steered us when we began to show symp- toms of fatigue, skillfully taking us through the narrow inlet between the' rocks that concealed it from ear nil ob- servers. Perhaps the dark hours that followed helped to imprint on my memory the peaceful beauty of that spot, for I cim conjure up—even now that years havo d over my head—every detail of the :'air picture ; the high banks hemming in ,he mimic bay, covered to their summits with heather and the endless variety of 'ems that flourish in tho rich alluvial soil; the trees crowning the heights the sighing of the soft breeze that stirred the tranches, and the musical cadence of fall- ng water f" immmi'ntl'le little rivulets sounded from rock torock in glistening :ise;ules, or like silver serpents threaded ;heir way toward the murmuring sea. The scene was so lovely that even the nercurial spirit of our coxswain was im- 31-essed ty it, and ho stopped in the midst of one of nis favorite ditties to exclaim, By Jove, it's sublime ! " In reminiscences of our happy Bohool days, and song after song from the Mario of our company, the time quickly passed away, till the deepening shadows warned i< that we must depart, Ortr diminished stores were replaced in tho yawl, and, lending toour work, we soon emerged 'mm the peaceful eovo into the broader expanse of St. Michael's bay. While we were lingering in the cove, ;hc breeze had freshened, so that our lit- ile boat danced merrily over the swelling waves, the bounding motion adding a Vesh impetus to the mirth which was ex- uberant enough at st:ii'tm_r. We had traversed about half our home- ward waywhen Tom U.iv es pr iposoa it row in oneof the gloomy lookmgcuveins "requently to be torn on th : CoiTrisu coast. Every one agreeing to the pro- the l)o:it w;is bacled fora few yards, the head pointed toward the near- est opening, and half a dozen vigorous strokes sent us into the yawning cavity. As we darted under the unnow arch. we perceived that sit its highest point the cavern rose but a few feet aboVo our leads, while to > u gre-.it consternation, we h u id ourselves irresistibly carried much lurthcr than we had intended pene- trating into this abode of strange eouoes. A.s a.iother wave ramu up, impelling us ll onward in spite of our most vigor- ous efforts to provent it, we looked toward each other anxiously, and our coxswain's voiue sounded hollow and unusually sub- dued, as he exclaimed: I say, yru fellows, this won't do at any prior. Stern all! " Tliis, toour increasing uneasiness, we Found it impossible to accomplish. We had but backed a few yards when, with a whirl anda rush aj;..inst which wo could make no head, another wive rolled in, and we clnng desperately tothe sides of tho cavern to p event oar boat heing dashed topieces on same hidden boulder. Though alive to the danger of tho posi- tion, and bitterly regretting our fooiisn- ness in making t.c venture with so rough a sea running, we did not fully compr - licnd our difficulties until we looked toward the mouth of the cavern. To our horror we perceived that it was growing less and less. As tho next wave came dashing in, its crest reached to within a couple of feet of the crown of the rugged arch above us. The tide was sill rising, and the dreadful rea i y fi rce Htsel i pon us, that in a short time we should Ue in from light and hope; in a word that we should be buried alive in the cavern! With indescribable sensations we watoh- each wave rise higher and higher, and the faint light grow dimmer; while, to increase the horror of our situation, our boat was dashed to and fro with snob fearful violence that we knew not how long wo might hope to prevent tts being broran up. Clinging with our bleeding fingers to the projecting rocks, we sat with our f idei turned in mute despair to the opening ; and the " God help us ! " that burst from Trelawnys lips sounded like the words of doom to all. Higher and higher crept the insatiate waters, now reaching the vory summit of the arch, and oblitefatibg the glimmer of light that yot stole in; then, as if to mock us, receding till the faint ray was once more visible. Again and agaiu this happened; but at last we w~re enveloped in pitchy darkness. The wall of water had barred us in, and, unless God helped us we had taken our last look at the bright world without. It was hard to die so young ; and even now I think it no shame to our manhood that choking sobs and earnest cries for mercy thronged to our lips, as we strug- gled tohold on against the volume of water striving always todash us onward into the deeper recesses of the chasm. In our haste and alarm we had forgot- ten that a small anchor was lying at the bottom of the boat; but now, as a larger wave than wo had hitherto contended ith, came pushing on us, Trclawny gasped out: Tho anchor ! over with it or wo are lost '• I can hold on no longer." not his thoughts with the widowed moth- er who, if she lost him, lost her all ¥ Presently the awful stillness was broken by a rock crumbling from tho roof and falling with a deafening crash not many feet from where wo lay, the sound rever- bratiug along the cavernous vaults until it died away in the distance. After a while) we fancied wo heard the moaning Of the wind outside our prison. Had it increased ? And if the rosult should bo as we foreboded, would our fate ever be known tothose who would mourn for US? Would any vestige of tho yawl or her unfortunate crew', be washed Out to soa totell tho sad tale ? At last and what an eternity it seem- ed—we could discern a faint glimmer of light. A fewseconds, and it had vanish- ed* Then, liko a bright star dawning upon us it steadily increased, and v> o knew the tide was falling. Breathlessly we watched the bright harbinger of hope- till, with eyes that brimmed over, and voices tremulous with thankful joy, wu told each other that wo might make an ''attempt to depart. It Was Hot Utitil after many narrow es- oapes of being dashed on the partly sunk- en rooks that wo succeeded in reaching tho outer world. What we then thought, or how we acted, may be better imagined than described; and I suppose I need scarcely say that we hare rarer since titan explored a Cornish cavern when tho tide was rushing in. MONEY ATTNTEREST. In an instant I hud it over the side. On came the bellowing wave, the boat was lifted upon it; our hands forced to re- linquish their grasp of the jagged stones to which we had been clinging, and like di f gg an arrow we were driven forward; but the anchor held, and, for a time, wo felt that we were saved. Up to this moment very few words had been uttered, for the transition had been too great from the mirth and sunshine without, to the darkness and terror with- in, to permit of speech. We all knewby what a frail tenure we held our lives, and silently huddled together listening tu the wash of the billows as they oame whirl- ing and tumbling past our boat, to dash with a concussion like thunder against some recess of the cavern, which seemed to bo far, away. Strangefa&rsstole over rs as we pray- ed incoherently that the anchor im:_ r !it hold and the wind drop, or clung in- stinctively to the sides of our vessel, when the eddying waters hurried by, leaving behind them a transient calm, so pro- found thatw e eoul 1 hear ( ur own deep breathing and tho bitter grief of our erstwhile happy little coxswain. Were It is twenty-five years since mylittle story began, and I wonder whatimule mo remember it to-day ! Nothing intho sur- rouiwling circumstances I am sure, yet in the midst of this crowded eity while the streets were yet full of light and life, all ttt once I thought of that gray, cool even- ing, the silent sweetness of the lonely garden, and the plaintive cryof some lost lamb on the mountains. My uncle had gone noarly two hours before to SOP. a dying child in the. village; but the twi- light lingers long in that northern lati- tude, and so, though it was ne.irly ten o'clock, I put on my hat and sauntered down the little bridle-path to meet him. I had not far to g(1, but I was much as- tonished to find him accompanied by a young man known as " Dark Harry Hon- shawe." Both of them seemed to be un- der great emotion, tho doctor tookmy hind silently, and young Heashawo neither raised his eyes nor opened his mouth. I knew that ho had a very bad name in all tho country side, and that the shadow of a great crime hung over him, therefore my astonishment was still greater when he followed my uncle into his study and after remaining there a few minutes went away again, without speak- ing a word to any of the family. After prayers were over and the servants in their room, uncle told us that Harry had demanded money from him on his way home in a way which left no doubt as to his intentions. " What did you do, uncle ? Did you give him mono'}' r " " I said, ' No, no, Ifarry ; what I have on me is not worth the taking; but if you will walk bi"-i le me and tell me all your troull: I will lend you enough to makea man of you again.' " Aunt Mary lookcl injured, and her knitting-needles spoke for ner. " Don't be grieved, wife! The lad has been driven to destruction by false accusa- tions, and he's innocent; upon my word I believe he's innocent." "Very well. If you know better than judge and jury apd all the country side, of course he's innocent." " God o ton reveals to charity, Mary, wha 1 1 e hi les from wisdom. The boy is innocent; I intend to help him to prove it." " How ? By a new trial ? " " No. By a nevf life. I have loaned him $100 aud he has gone toTexas." •• Not a very good reformatory school, I should think. ' " Where God directs the discipline, every school is good. Come, wife, be lropeful and charitable." Next day I hoard, from Aunt Mary something of the young man's history. Three summers ago ho had formed the acquaintance of a gcntloinan who, partly as a tourist and partly as a sportsman, had spent several months in tho neigh- borhood. For many weeks their friend ship had been a marvel, then either familiarity bred contempt or jealousy kindled hatred. Thoy quarreled Openly and furiously. Three days afterwards tho body of tho stranger was found terri- bly mangled at the foot of B.irrow's cliff, and Harry was arrested for the murder. Ho was eventually acquitted for want of evidence, but he found every one's face dark and every one's heart hard against him; not even the woman he loved be- lieved him innocent, and he suffered keen- ly from that negative punishment which is morn grievous than many stripes He sunk lower and lower, and the previous night in a drunken brawl had struck to tho ground one of his companions. Not caring to undergo the imprisonment and suspense which would be the result, he stopped my uncle and demanded money to ilee with. Hegot it, and also some- thing far better, "for every gift of nobk origin is breathed upon by hope's perpet* unl breath." I thought at intervals for a few weeks of the dark, reckless face which h'ld looked into my life for u moment and then he passed) as I supposed, for- ever into th'e shadow land of memory. Twelve years afterwards I found my self one hot night in the middle o August sailing up tho Buffalo bayou, i beautiful lagoon in southeastern Texas Up the narrow stream, darkened by it arcade of live oaks and magnolias, slowly made our way. The hot, perfum ( d air, tho unreal spectral look of every thing, gave me thesensation of dreaming On all tho crew and passengers a kind o hushed tranquillity had fallen, broken only by the slow laboring of the engine or the lazy thud of some alligator takin to tho water. It lasted long ; but just a I was beginning to feel it oppressive, w came to an opening in the dense foliage and a clear, strong voice said, "Wake i stranger ! this is the battle field of San Jaeinto." Then wo gathered round him while he told in words that moved th heart like a trumpet, tho old story ove again, how the land was sick wit tyranny, and could be cured with noth ing but bloOli 1 . And as tho trees parte more and more, and tho moon shono fu on the speaker, suddenly there came nd I've beon afraid to ir ist another wo- nan." After a few minutes silence he dded, " My home is in the far West, be- yond San Antonio, and it is hardly likely we shall meet again." But the eternal future is before us. If ve part here, which way do you go't " "Heavenward, madam, I trust," and e looked into my face with a grave but arjpy assurance. " My u tola's loan is paid, I suppose ? " " The end of tho first year sow the rinoipal paid ; the interest I pay rogu- irly to every poor miserable follow I see. f I say a word of promise to some des- airing Wretch, I t»ill him, ' That is what )r. Will said to me ;' and if I help him o a few needful dollars 1 say, ' That's ttie nteiOit of what Dr. Will set me on my set with; ' and it is very seldom, madam, !ie gift goes to the bad, for overy unsel- sh gift prospers.' 1 " Dr. Will would bea happy man if he ould HOC and hear you to-day " " He Will be happy enough When wo oth stand before God, and i say, ' I w;is oing to hell, and this good man stopped le, hodid not pas3 by on the other side." 'here were tears in both our eyes when, ftur ashort pause, ho wont on, " And lie good did not stop with me: on my vay back I met othar weary and sinful ouls, and I stopped them; andso there is uito a little company walking heaven- rard that would havo btert going the ther way but for Dr. Will's $100. Nay, liere are some, I honestly believe, safe lero alroadyi and so when his time comes e will find mends there—friends made y the ' mammon of unrighteousness who ill receive him into everlasting habita- ons.' " I think to-day of that solemn parting y the garden-gtite, when the young man lade the vow he kopt, and tho old man lleorod and blessed and helped him; and try to imagine that blessed mooting vhen the souls those prjeious words and lat $100 saved, come in the garb of the lining ones to welcome the old man ome : and 1know there will be rejoicing niong the angels, and better than all, ie Master's assuring thanks, " Thou didst ; unto Me."Mrs. A.

With eiiu.il candor ho admitted that te pecuniary part had its influence, but eclared that if he were rich aud she or>r, he would be most happy to make BT his wife. She wavered for half a ay, slept over tho matter, and the next loining fylt constrained to decline. The voting man performed tho philo- ophic role, remarked that ho was sorry, ut ho had too much to occupy himself u breaking his he irt. " We may do better than marry, Bel- V ho t.dled. " Wo might have quarre e I s mm and wife, but wo won't quarrel s friends; and, after all, who knows but elibacy is the greatest of blessings ? " Still lie did not surrender hopo. Ho proposed the same afternoon to acb her toswim, and they went togeth- r into tho surf much further than pru- ,once would have dictated. He wantod o frighten rfcr and he succeeded. The undertow carried her out until she .hought she was really drowning. He >tttnged after her and brought her safely .> the shore. When she had recovorod from her tcr- or, she said to her companion : "You have preserved my life, Charles, md it would be ungrateful for me to lon- ur withhold my hand." Charles, as may be supposed, accepted. Papa is delighted with bis prospective on-in law for his heroic achievement, and in the early autumn the torch of Hy- men will kindle tho fire upon this new domestic hearth.—Corres. Cincinnati Coni' tiercitd. Concerning Croquet* It is rtly boli'Sf that tfroqilet was invent- ed by some suspicious and cynical young man for the purpose df trytrtg young la- dies' tempers. My reason ftir supposing it tohave bmni a young niart is; that they aro said to be in the habit of trying such experiments, while I never heard of a young woman attempting anything of such a brilliant advantage. My sense of abstract justice was strong. The die was da9fr. I aimed ; I strUck ; I hit! " Now use it to help yourself along," said Ned, enthusiastically. " No, indeed," I replied. " I am above making a convenience of people. If I cant win by my own skill, I Won't win at all. I am just going to send him oil' so the kind, owing, no doubt, to the self- i far tlmt Ul; won't come back." And I sacrificing generosity Of the feminine na- ; planted my foot firmly upon the doomed ture which impels hot to love, faults and ball. "Don't ninoh, 1 ' said Ned, evidently fearing that my sympathies would get the bettor of me. Flinch ! Not I. The pent-up feelings of the last half hour were condensed irt that blow. Ijjtruek with thaenergy of despe- ration, and the ball flew—exactly where it Wanted to go, straight through the middle arch. '•JThat is What I call doing good to your enemies," remarked my opponent, exultjngly. " I hope it heaped coals offire,"was my brief replyi as I mado another dash at the stake, and missed it by about tho niliety-ninth part of an inch. "That hit, didn't it?" said Elsie. " Not quite," I answered innocently, without heeding some peculiar contor- tions of visage on thopart of Ned, who was standing near me. " Oh, Aunt Mcta," ke exclaimed, in a low voice, '.' «hv didn't you pretend you had hit it, aud go onH They thought you did, and it would have been just tho same." " Don't TOU know that would hare been cheating, my dear ?" I answered, trying to look grave, and feeling quite shocked at the depravity croquet was in- stilling into his young nnd tender mind. "Why, no, it isn't real cheating," ar- gued the boyi " It's jitst the game, and everybody does it. Besides, it did most hit." That is the reason I am so far behind, I reflected, as the demon of suspicion en- tered my n'ind. arid I began to look upon my opponents as partners in a conspiracy to defraud ino of my rights. It is un- all. It is also my belief that the immense po, ularity of croquet, has something to do with tho alarming decline in matrimo- nial ventures, as it not only brings out tho disposition in an unfavorable light) but has a tendency to spoil it altogether! as well as to cultivate many objectiona- ble qualities. One thing may be said in its favor, however, that if you do come out utfsoafhed from the fiery ordeal, you must be very much of a saint indeed. Judged from an external standpoint) it is a vory innocent game, consisting main- ly in knocking balls through bent wires. Not until you take ail inside view can you fully appreciate how much sin can lie veiled under a harmless exterior, or how many conflicting passions may bn roused by the simple stroke of a mallet. It is popularly supposed to possess the crowning excellence over all otfoor games, of being hitrhly moral. I think it in highly wicked and ought to be frowned upon by orthodox people. I was inveigled into it the other ove- ning, so I can speak from exneriiini. I Jiud undoubtedly watched many a game through the long summer days. I had even played occasionally with the chil- dren, simple, straightforward games, Mich as children play before they have learned the crooked devices of this sinful world. But I had altogether failed tocatch its essential spirit. I considered it dull, and interesting mainly from a hygjitiriic poiilt of view. Klsie insisted that it was lack of knowledge" Elsie is fond of croquet, she is devoted to croquet: might say Site lives, She my ttemeinbrainoe the cold, fresh, norther air, the solemn mountains and the mist moorlands, and I said, "Harry HIM shawe!"

This is disgraceful. 2. Do not sup soup with a fork. Your soup will always have you at a d sad van- tage with such odds. Besides it is "soup- ertluous." 3. In passing your plate to be rehelped, retain your knife and fork in your vest pocket. 4. When asked for a dish, donot pK»el it aoress the surface of the table, after the manner or game of shovel-board ; always pitch it gracefully, after the manner ol quoita. This will bo " quoit " sufficient .'i. Never try to eat fish with a salt- cellar. (i. While drinking, be careful not to empty hot coffee, or anything af that sort into your neighbor's paper collar. 7. Do not eat too fast. You will no "get left" if you make up in heroic doses, for fast time. 8.

I had never heard er use stick a Word before, aild looked 1 her with grave and sorrowful amaze- ent, upon which she laughingly told ie that it was a part of tho game. It is sually considered ill manners to notice istakes, especially in that broad way, nd it does not denote a kind heart, tier might, at least, havo found a more olite name, or put it in French, which vould give it an air of respectability, ut I don't think croquet is a polite amc. My next play was more fortunate. I nt my ball through two arches and loft * in excellent position for the third. I Was uite elated, and was gravely calculating ow many strokes would send it through ne fourth, when one of my opponents, nstead of going through his own arch, s he ought to have done, came aftsr it, nd, taking it back, used it to help him- ;lf along, If there is anything I dis- ke, it is being made a convenience of, nd if any people are sui>remoly disagree- ble, it is those who make a convenience f other people to advance themselves. t is very sclhsli, to say tho least, aud scl- slmess grows upon one. People who lay croquet a-gre t deal are apt to be elfish, especially if they play well. After my opponent had made a con- renienoe of my ball as long as he wished, ie left it, and went on without the slight- it compunction, although he knew he had spoiled all my plans, and that I hould havo great difficulty iu regaining; what I had lost. I tried to send it back where it belonged, but missed my aim, nd left within easy reach of Elsie, who amused herself a long time by knocking t around. Indeed, I think that between haw they would havo spent tho evening n that way if my partner had not kindly come to the rescue, and, after sending mo >*iek to my position, summarily avengod ny wrongs. I succeeded, at last, in getting thr.ni th he third arch, and was just ready to go ;hrough the fourth, when my opponent it himself to tho troublo of coming back fain out of pure spite, and sending me >tf into the grass. I should like to have whistled if it had been proper and I had cnown how, just to seem cheerful and nake myself believe I was enjoying il. lluf, that being a double impossibility, I •vied tohide my injured feelings behind smile. It was a pale, sickly, ghost of a smilo, and I am sure every one saw •hrough it, although they didn't seem to jure. It makes people heartless to play jroquot. On the whole, I don't think a lady who played croquet well inmld make a good wife, she would be so inconsider- ate of other people's feelings. I was now so tar behind that they did not think it worth while to trouble them- }lves about me, SO I pursued my lonely way to the sixth arch. Here my oppo- nent's aggravating temper got the better of him again, add, although he W&B for on his way to the starting point, he oanrt back for the express purpose of annoying me, but fell short by a few feet. "Now gofor him, Aunt Meta," said Ned, who was watching the game with intense interest. I suppose that was a technical phrase. I should not be at all surprised if croquet taught slang among among other objec- She pleasant to bd Obliged to guard against the machinations of your fellow mortals. A Mormon missionary courted a girl i Wales, and sent her by express, charge prepaid, to the holy city of the Latte Day Saints, whereof Bngham Young i the biggest Tweed and the most marrie Tammany chief. She was to await h: arrival. The maiden was lovely to look upon Brigham saw her; his too combustibl houut took tire anew. He loved tho Welc maiden with her horrid language. Sii askod himif it wasn't barely possible tha he mistook his sentiments for her. The venerable flisoipte of Cupid informed her that he had been that way too many times to make a mistake now. So the Wales girl forgot the humble missionaiy and trumped the biggest saint in the lot. This is a wicked world ; and that, mis- sionary has reformed, quit Moniionism, and is running a faro bank in California. l)ii t I urn satisfied that people who are in the habit of playing croquet a great deal need tobe watched. It is insidious, and undermines the principles before one is nWafe of it. The next stroke sent my ball against the small stake, which was about an inch away, and by singular good luck I Went through two niches. My partner, who had a good dual, of trouble on his own ac- counti thought I looked lones.me, so he eqgiU back and very skillfully took my biul with his own through three more.

I advised him to go out when he hud an opportunity, and leave me to my fate, but he very po- litely declined, and, not to bo outdone in generosity, in my turn I arranged the balls so that one stroke wuuld send us both out, and trusted to the chivalry of my opponent not to disturb them. But, alas! I trusted in a broken reed. The spell of croquet was upon him, and chivalry had ceased to be. He coolly dealt my ball a tremendous blow, and. sent it out of sight. Thsn ho served my partner in tbo same ungenerous manner, and, profiting by our downfall triumph- antly won the game. I suppose they wove happy; at least they looked so. I wasn't although I pre- tended to be ; but if I had done so many unkind things, and spoiled people's plans in such a heartless manner, and built my- self up by putting others down, I should have been haunted with remorse for a week.

From the Louisville Courier -Journal, Aug. 23, The Kentucky Burning Well. In connection with the recerrt visit of the scientists to this city, and the pres- ence of a number of thoBQ gentlemen still in oUr midst, the existence of a great natural curiosity in this State is suggest- ed, which has probably escaped their no- tice in their exfylm-atioTrs in Kentucky, and which will be of interest to them as to other readers. Some six miles east of Crab Orchard, in Lincoln county, there is a spring known as the " Burning Well," situatea at tho very base of the Cumberland inoUn- tains, and on the banks of a small stream called Dix river. The water in this woll is iu a constant state of ebullition, and regularly every day ( between 4 and 8 o'clock in thd afternoon, overflows. A large quantity of gas is liberated, said to be carburet ed hydrogen gas, to which a light being applied, a flame, sometimes ten or fifteen feet in height, results. The only peculiarly curious feature tff this well is the diurnal and infallibly regular overflow, as there are soveral " burning wolls," so called, in this and Other States.- One gentleman, who professes to have de- voted a good deal of time and attention the subjectt explains this phenomenon ort the hypothesis thilt tile rarefaction of the atmosphere caused by heat relieves the atmospheric pressure upon the water up- wards. This might be satisfactory, but that the phenomenon ocgurs some two hours subsequent to the time of average highest heat, and in the coldest months of winter, as in the hottest days of summer) always between the hours mentioned. The phenomenon has been mentioned be- fore, but never with a satisfactory expla- nation. A good story is told, by the way, apro- pos of this well. In the earlier part of the present century, when Kentucky, and especially the mountain districts) weret but sparsely settled, a mart by the name of Shanks owned this portion of Lincoln county in which the woll is situated. At that time all the salt usod in tho Stato had to bo brought from Louisville, or imported frotu "Virginia at a very large expense in those days of stage coaches and covered wagons. JIf. Shanks had evidence of salt on his land, and deter- mined upon trying Whether he might not findth'it commodity by boring in the Vi- cinity of his salt licks. He sunk two or three shafts, but Unsuccessfully, when his neighbors began to laugh at 'Old Shanks's folly." He minded not a whit their jeers, but swore that ho would sink one more shaft if lie bored clean through into hull. Sure enough, after boriilg toquite a depth, his drill fell through, the drilling" shaft WHS blown soule distance into tli<$ aii by escaping gas, which ignited froni a fire near by, aud in an indescribably short space of time all the undergrowth, thd trees near by, aud even the surface of the river itself, formed one broad sheet of flame. Oil floWed out with the gas, which accounted for the " river on fire." All of this to the spectators was inoompiehensi- ble, and a genoTal stampede from the Country round about resulted. Old Shanks had been as good as his word, lie had bored clean through into hell, and his neighbors fled as from a pestilence, leav- ing growing crops, houses, property of all sorts behind in the general terror. Why does the well so overflow, arid With such regularity ? At any other hour than between those mentioned, that the gas may escape it is" first necessary to pump off a large portion of the superiii- cUulbcnt Water. When this is done tho regular overflow does not occurj but when the well remains undisturbed through tho day the phenomenon is repeated with un- failing regularity. Nor does enough gas- percolate the water during any other pe- riod of day to bocomo ignited, although, us is said, a slight but constant ebullitiou is kept up below. Betwoon the hours of 4 and o the water becomes sti'ongly agi- tated, artd, after the lapse df a few mo- ments, rises rapidly to tho level of the ground, a distance of sevural feet, and overflows; the gas is liberated at the same momont, and although tho experimeUb has been tried nearly every day for d number of years, burns brightly, on be- ing ignited, to a distance of from three to si*, feet, varying in steady continuance from half an hour to quarters in duration. an hour and three All this is Vouched for by the guardian of the well, and by the neighbors and occasional visitors- The water has a Strong saline taste, but singularly enough, even after the surface has boon seemingly on fire for half an hour or more, it is as cold as before the overflow. p for tionablo things; indeed, I think 1 have observed that it did. But I had no time to ask questions just then. I hesitated a moment, but finally de- cided toreturn good for evil, and display my magnanimity by leaving him in p The distance of the ball rendered it much easier for me to be magnanimous, ;ls it was quito clear tome that t could not hit it if I tried. So I went through the last two arches and aimed at the stake, but missed it, owing toits being so very small. I think croquet stakes ought to be made larger. They would look better, besides saving a vast amount of friction i-: the matter of temper. I am sorry to say that myopponent did not appreciate the magnanimity with whieh 1 had treated him, but pursued me with charafteristic ingratitude. That he was naturally ungrateful I cannot be- lieve, but it was sad to note the extent to which croquet had demoralized him. Once I would not have believed it possi- ble. But. croquet had wrought the mel- mulioly change. Croquet has a tcii'leiioy to make people ungrateful. cd within two getting or three inches.

He is never Still except when asleep, and even then tumbles from side to side in his crib with sudden flings of arms and legs. When he grows beyond babyhood, he plays differently.

Tho girl-baby is gentle, even from the first, and looks quietly out of the blue eyes, or laughingly out of the dark ones. Sho talks naturally to her dolls, and never wearies of dressing them and arranging the baby house; she is gentle in her plays, and would be frightened with what would fill her brotho r with a par- oxysm Jof delight; she loves fairy tales, and will not laugh and ask some absurd Question about the bibes in the woods, but rather cries over their sorrows.

I do not regret seeing it in each. The gentle boy will not make any the less noble man be- cause there was SOmuch that was girl- like in his childhood, nor will the girl that was iii her rudeness often called a boy, be any the less, but perhaps all the more, a true and lovely woman.

THK FATHER.

fllOM THE

l*hord Was the mightiest man in thearish. He stood one day in the parson'siudy, tall and grave. " I have a son," heaid, "and wish him christeuod."

" What shall be his name f "" Finn, after my father."" And the godfathers y "Thord told their names, and they woree best men of the parish, and •women

f his own kin." Is there anything more ? " asked the

arson ; he looked upThord stood a moment. " I would like

o have him baptized alone," ho said." That is to say, on a week day 'r '*" Saturday next; at 12 o'clock."" Is there anything more ? "" No, that is all."Thord fumbled with hi.*** cap j lie Was

bout to leave. Then the parson wentmight to him, and grasped his hand.God give," said he, looking into his

yes, " that this child bo a blessing untojee."

Sixteen years after that day Thordx>od once more in the parson's study.Thou keepest on quito Well," said thearson; he could see no change in him." For I have no grief," answered Thord.To this the parson said nothing, but af-

ter a while he asked, " What is thy er-and to-night ? "

This night I havo como for my son,te is to be confirmed to-morrow."" He is a gooa boy."" I would not pay the parson until I

cnew what place he was to have amongne oth :r boys."" He is number one."" I hear so, and these ten dollars arer yo .'" i s th 're anything mora ? "" No, that is all." And Thord left.

Eigh' years passer' aw y, and then, oneiv. ngi,;iii noise was ueard before thearson's study, for many men were com-

ng and Thord at their head. Tho pur-im looked up and knew him. "Thouomest in great number, to-day," he said.

I huve come to hive read the bans ofmy son. n e is going: to marry Karen

torliden, daughter of Gudmund, who::inds here."" She is the richest girl in the parish."" People say so," answered Thord ; he

moothed awuy tho hair from the foro-ead.The parson sat a minute in deep thought

[e said nothing, but put down the nameshis book and the men signed. Thord

lid three dollars on the table," I shall have only one," said the par-

on.1 know it, but he is my only child,

nd I wish to do all this well." The par-ou took the money.

This is the third time, Thord, thoutinniest here for thy son."

" But this time is also the last," saidhord, " for I am now done." He fold-1 his pocket-book, bade farewell, andrent away, the other men following slow-y-

T( n years after that day, the fathernd son were rowing in calm weather,ver tho water to Storliden, to speakbout the wedding feast." This seat is not firm under me," said

he son ; he rose to make it right. Buthe board he stood upon slipped. Hehrew up his afius, shrieked, and fell ino the water.

Tiike hold of this o:ir," said the fath-he stood up and held it out. But

when the son had made a few strokes hoprow stiff.

Wait a minute," cried tho father ; herowed toward him. But the son fell back,ooked longingly at the father, and sank.

Thord eould not believe it. He kepthe boat still and stared at the spot whorehe son had gone down, as if he must

come up once more. Some bubbles rose,lomc few more, then one big one thatjurst, and smooth lay the water like•lass.

For three days and three nights the*>eople saw the father rowing about this

2 spot, taking neither food nor sleep;sought for his son. On the third day,

ioward morning, he found him and boreliiui home, up over the hills.

About a year passed away. Then, onelate evening in the fall, the parson heardsomebody groping in the entry and feel-ing for the lock. He opened the doorand a tall but stooping man came in; hewas thin and had gray hairs. Tho par-son looked at him for a long while beforehe knew him ; it was Thord.

Thou comest late," said the parson,and he Rtood still before him.

Yes. I come late," said Thord; he satdown.

The parson sat down, too, as if he wait-ed. There was silence for a long time.

Then said Thord : " I have somethingwith me I wish to give to the poor." liestood up, laid money on the table, andsat down again. The parson counted it." It is a great sum," said he.

" Half of what I have; I sold my farmto-day."

The parson sat in long silence. At lasthe asked mildly, " What will you do now."

" Something better."They sat awhile ; Thord with his eyes

on the floor, the parson with his eyes onThord. Then said the parson, slowly andvery mildly : "Now L think thy sou hasat l;ist become a blessing to thee."

" I think so, too," said Thord; he look-ed up, and two tears dropped heavilydown his cheeks.

" I wish I had your head," said a ladyto her lawyer who had just solved a knot-ty point for her.

" And I wish I had your heart," respon-ded the lawyer.

It was not long beforo the lawyershead and the lady's heart went into part-nership for life

IN A CORNISH CAVERN—AS ESCAPE.

It was a clear, balmy day in June whenI, Richard Dawson, midshipman, at hohtein Corn well after a two yean, cruise, look-ed np three of my old schoolmates for ar>w along the coast in a yawl hired of awaterman, and well freighted with allth'it was needed to make the day a mertfyone.

Away we went, four of the most light-h a ted lads living. Bob Treluw nystroke, myself with a pair of sculls, TomDavies in tho bow-—rowing at random ;and Lillie Finch, our little coxswain,saucily hugging liinmelf on the dwarfishstature which exempted him from anygreater share in our labors.

With many a quip at each other's ex-pense, our laughter waking up the echoesOf the curiously vniiu'd dirt's toweringabove us, we glided along-the picturesquecoast; sometimes passing beneath hugeblocks of granite, which seemed to needbut a touch to topple them down uponour frail craft; Sometimes catchingglimpses of tiny coves, whose beauty BOforeign scenery I havo over visited ex-ceeded. Into one of these our coxswainSteered us when we began to show symp-toms of fatigue, skillfully taking usthrough the narrow inlet between the'rocks that concealed it from ear nil ob-servers.

Perhaps the dark hours that followedhelped to imprint on my memory thepeaceful beauty of that spot, for I cimconjure up—even now that years havo

d over my head—every detail of the:'air picture ; the high banks hemming in,he mimic bay, covered to their summitswith heather and the endless variety of'ems that flourish in tho rich alluvialsoil; the trees crowning the heights thesighing of the soft breeze that stirred thetranches, and the musical cadence of fall-ng water f" immmi'ntl'le little rivuletssounded from rock to rock in glistening:ise;ules, or like silver serpents threaded;heir way toward the murmuring sea.The scene was so lovely that even thenercurial spirit of our coxswain was im-31-essed t y it, and ho stopped in the midstof one of nis favorite ditties to exclaim,

By Jove, it's sublime ! "In reminiscences of our happy Bohool

days, and song after song from the Marioof our company, the time quickly passedaway, till the deepening shadows warnedi< that we must depart, Ortr diminished

stores were replaced in tho yawl, and,lending to our work, we soon emerged'mm the peaceful eovo into the broaderexpanse of St. Michael's bay.

While we were lingering in the cove,;hc breeze had freshened, so that our lit-ile boat danced merrily over the swellingwaves, the bounding motion adding aVesh impetus to the mirth which was ex-uberant enough at st:ii'tm_r.

We had traversed about half our home-ward way when Tom U.iv es pr iposoa itrow in one of the gloomy lookmgcuveins"requently to be torn on th : CoiTrisucoast. Every one agreeing to the pro-

the l)o:it w;is bacled for a fewyards, the head pointed toward the near-est opening, and half a dozen vigorousstrokes sent us into the yawning cavity.

As we darted under the unnow arch.we perceived that sit its highest point thecavern rose but a few feet aboVo ourleads, while to > u • gre-.it consternation,we h u id ourselves irresistibly carriedmuch lurthcr than we had intended pene-trating into this abode of strange eouoes.

A.s a.iother wave ramu up, impelling usll onward in spite of our most vigor-

ous efforts to provent it, we looked towardeach other anxiously, and our coxswain'svoiue sounded hollow and unusually sub-dued, as he exclaimed:

I say, yru fellows, this won't do atany prior. Stern all! "

Tliis, to our increasing uneasiness, weFound it impossible to accomplish. We hadbut backed a few yards when, with awhirl and a rush aj;..inst which wo couldmake no head, another wive rolled in,and we clnng desperately to the sides oftho cavern to p event oar boat heingdashed to pieces on same hidden boulder.

Though alive to the danger of tho posi-tion, and bitterly regretting our fooiisn-ness in making t . c venture with so rougha sea running, we did not fully compr -licnd our difficulties until we lookedtoward the mouth of the cavern. To ourhorror we perceived that it was growingless and less. As tho next wave camedashing in, its crest reached to within acouple of feet of the crown of the ruggedarch above us. The tide was s i l l rising,and the dreadful rea i y fi rce Htsel i ponus, that in a short time we should Ue

in from light and hope; in a wordthat we should be buried alive in thecavern!

With indescribable sensations we watoh-each wave rise higher and higher, and

the faint light grow dimmer; while, toincrease the horror of our situation, ourboat was dashed to and fro with snobfearful violence that we knew not howlong wo might hope to prevent tts beingbroran up.

Clinging with our bleeding fingers tothe projecting rocks, we sat with our f ideiturned in mute despair to the opening ;and the " God help us ! " that burst fromTrelawnys lips sounded like the words ofdoom to all.

Higher and higher crept the insatiatewaters, now reaching the vory summit ofthe arch, and oblitefatibg the glimmer oflight that yot stole in; then, as if tomock us, receding till the faint ray wasonce more visible. Again and agaiu thishappened; but at last we w~re envelopedin pitchy darkness. The wall of waterhad barred us in, and, unless God helpedus we had taken our last look at thebright world without.

It was hard to die so young ; and evennow I think it no shame to our manhoodthat choking sobs and earnest cries formercy thronged to our lips, as we strug-gled to hold on against the volume ofwater striving always to dash us onwardinto the deeper recesses of the chasm.

In our haste and alarm we had forgot-ten that a small anchor was lying at thebottom of the boat; but now, as a largerwave than wo had hitherto contended

ith, came pushing on us, Trclawnygasped out:

Tho anchor ! over with it or wo arelost '• I can hold on no longer."

not his thoughts with the widowed moth-er who, if she lost him, lost her all ¥

Presently the awful stillness was brokenby a rock crumbling from tho roof andfalling with a deafening crash not manyfeet from where wo lay, the sound rever-bratiug along the cavernous vaults untilit died away in the distance.

After a while) we fancied wo heard themoaning Of the wind outside our prison.Had it increased ? And if the rosultshould bo as we foreboded, would our fateever be known to those who would mournfor US? Would any vestige of tho yawlor her unfortunate crew', be washed Out tosoa to tell tho sad tale ?

At last and what an eternity it seem-ed—we could discern a faint glimmer oflight. A few seconds, and it had vanish-ed* Then, liko a bright star dawningupon us it steadily increased, and v> oknew the tide was falling. Breathlesslywe watched the bright harbinger of hope-till, with eyes that brimmed over, andvoices tremulous with thankful joy, wutold each other that wo might make an

''attempt to depart.I t Was Hot Utitil after many narrow es-

oapes of being dashed on the partly sunk-en rooks that wo succeeded in reachingtho outer world. What we then thought,or how we acted, may be better imaginedthan described; and I suppose I needscarcely say that we hare rarer since titanexplored a Cornish cavern when tho tidewas rushing in.

MONEY A T T N T E R E S T .

In an instant I hud it over the side. Oncame the bellowing wave, the boat waslifted upon it; our hands forced to re-linquish their grasp of the jagged stonesto which we had been clinging, and like

d i fggan arrow we were driven forward; butthe anchor held, and, for a time, wo feltthat we were saved.

Up to this moment very few words hadbeen uttered, for the transition had beentoo great from the mirth and sunshinewithout, to the darkness and terror with-in, to permit of speech. We all knew bywhat a frail tenure we held our lives, andsilently huddled together listening tu thewash of the billows as they oame whirl-ing and tumbling past our boat, to dashwith a concussion like thunder againstsome recess of the cavern, which seemedto bo far, away.

Strange fa&rs stole over rs as we pray-ed incoherently that the anchor im:_r!ithold and the wind drop, or clung in-stinctively to the sides of our vessel, whenthe eddying waters hurried by, leavingbehind them a transient calm, so pro-found that we eoul 1 hear ( ur own deepbreathing and tho bitter grief of ourerstwhile happy little coxswain. Were

It is twenty-five years since my littlestory began, and I wonder whatimule moremember it to-day ! Nothing in tho sur-rouiwling circumstances I am sure, yet inthe midst of this crowded eity while thestreets were yet full of light and life, allttt once I thought of that gray, cool even-ing, the silent sweetness of the lonelygarden, and the plaintive cry of some lostlamb on the mountains. My uncle hadgone noarly two hours before to SOP. adying child in the. village; but the twi-light lingers long in that northern lati-tude, and so, though it was ne.irly teno'clock, I put on my hat and sauntereddown the little bridle-path to meet him.I had not far to g(1, but I was much as-tonished to find him accompanied by ayoung man known as " Dark Harry Hon-shawe." Both of them seemed to be un-der great emotion, tho doctor took myhind silently, and young Heashawoneither raised his eyes nor opened hismouth. I knew that ho had a very badname in all tho country side, and thatthe shadow of a great crime hung overhim, therefore my astonishment was stillgreater when he followed my uncle intohis study and after remaining there a fewminutes went away again, without speak-ing a word to any of the family.

After prayers were over and the servantsin their room, uncle told us that Harryhad demanded money from him on hisway home in a way which left no doubtas to his intentions.

" What did you do, uncle ? Did yougive him mono'}' r "

" I said, ' No, no, Ifarry ; what I haveon me is not worth the taking; but if youwill walk bi"-i le me and tell me all yourtroull: I will lend you enough to make aman of you again.' "

Aunt Mary lookcl injured, and herknitting-needles spoke for ner.

" Don't be grieved, wife! The lad hasbeen driven to destruction by false accusa-tions, and he's innocent; upon my wordI believe he's innocent."

"Very well. If you know better thanjudge and jury apd all the country side,of course he's innocent."

" God o ton reveals to charity, Mary,wha1 1 e hi les from wisdom. The boy isinnocent; I intend to help him to proveit."

" How ? By a new trial ? "" No. By a nevf life. I have loaned

him $100 aud he has gone to Texas."•• Not a very good reformatory school,

I should think. '" Where God directs the discipline,

every school is good. Come, wife, belropeful and charitable."

Next day I hoard, from Aunt Marysomething of the young man's history.Three summers ago ho had formed theacquaintance of a gcntloinan who, partlyas a tourist and partly as a sportsman,had spent several months in tho neigh-borhood. For many weeks their friendship had been a marvel, then eitherfamiliarity bred contempt or jealousykindled hatred. Thoy quarreled Openlyand furiously. Three days afterwardstho body of tho stranger was found terri-bly mangled at the foot of B.irrow's cliff,and Harry was arrested for the murder.Ho was eventually acquitted for want ofevidence, but he found every one's facedark and every one's heart hard againsthim; not even the woman he loved be-lieved him innocent, and he suffered keen-ly from that negative punishment whichis morn grievous than many stripes Hesunk lower and lower, and the previousnight in a drunken brawl had struck totho ground one of his companions. Notcaring to undergo the imprisonment andsuspense which would be the result, hestopped my uncle and demanded moneyto ilee with. He got it, and also some-thing far better, "for every gift of nobkorigin is breathed upon by hope's perpet*unl breath." I thought at intervals for afew weeks of the dark, reckless face whichh'ld looked into my life for u momentand then he passed) as I supposed, for-ever into th'e shadow land of memory.

Twelve years afterwards I found myself one hot night in the middle oAugust sailing up tho Buffalo bayou, ibeautiful lagoon in southeastern TexasUp the narrow stream, darkened by itarcade of live oaks and magnolias,slowly made our way. The hot, perfum( d air, tho unreal spectral look of everything, gave me the sensation of dreamingOn all tho crew and passengers a kind ohushed tranquillity had fallen, brokenonly by the slow laboring of the engineor the lazy thud of some alligator takinto tho water. It lasted long ; but just aI was beginning to feel it oppressive, wcame to an opening in the dense foliageand a clear, strong voice said, "Wake istranger ! this is the battle field of SanJaeinto." Then wo gathered round himwhile he told in words that moved thheart like a trumpet, tho old story oveagain, how the land was sick wittyranny, and could be cured with nothing but bloOli1. And as tho trees partemore and more, and tho moon shono fuon the speaker, suddenly there came

nd I've beon afraid to ir ist another wo-nan." After a few minutes silence hedded, " My home is in the far West, be-

yond San Antonio, and it is hardly likelywe shall meet again."

But the eternal future is before us. Ifve part here, which way do you go't "

"Heavenward, madam, I trust," ande looked into my face with a grave butarjpy assurance." My u tola's loan is paid, I suppose ? "" The end of tho first year sow the

rinoipal paid ; the interest I pay rogu-irly to every poor miserable follow I see.f I say a word of promise to some des-airing Wretch, I t»ill him, ' That is what)r. Will said to me ;' and if I help himo a few needful dollars 1 say, ' That's ttienteiOit of what Dr. Will set me on myset with; ' and it is very seldom, madam,!ie gift goes to the bad, for overy unsel-sh gift prospers.'1" Dr. Will would be a happy man if he

Nay,liere are some, I honestly believe, safelero alroadyi and so when his time comese will find mends there—friends madey the ' mammon of unrighteousness whoill receive him into everlasting habita-ons.'

nd frankly told him she believed hoanted to wed her father's fortune rath-r than herself.With eiiu.il candor ho admitted that

te pecuniary part had its influence, buteclared that if he were rich aud sheor>r, he would be most happy to makeBT his wife. She wavered for half aay, slept over tho matter, and the nextloining fylt constrained to decline.The voting man performed tho philo-

ophic role, remarked that ho was sorry,ut ho had too much to occupy himselfu breaking his he irt.

" We may do better than marry, Bel-V ho t.d led. " Wo might have quarre e Is mm and wife, but wo won't quarrels friends; and, after all, who knows butelibacy is the greatest of blessings ? "

Concerning Croquet*It is rtly boli'Sf that tfroqilet was invent-

such a brilliant advantage. My sense ofabstract justice was strong. The die wasda9fr. I aimed ; I strUck ; I hit!

" Now use it to help yourself along,"said Ned, enthusiastically.

" No, indeed," I replied. " I am abovemaking a convenience of people. If Icant win by my own skill, I Won't win atall. I am just going to send him oil' so

without heeding some peculiar contor-tions of visage on tho part of Ned, whowas standing near me.

" Oh, Aunt Mcta," ke exclaimed, in alow voice, '.' «hv didn't you pretend youhad hit it, aud go onH They thoughtyou did, and it would have been just thosame."

" Don't TOU know that would harebeen cheating, my dear ?" I answered,trying to look grave, and feeling quiteshocked at the depravity croquet was in-stilling into his young nnd tender mind.

"Why, no, it isn't real cheating," ar-gued the boyi " It's jitst the game, andeverybody does it. Besides, it did mosthit."

That is the reason I am so far behind, Ireflected, as the demon of suspicion en-tered my n'ind. arid I began to look uponmy opponents as partners in a conspiracyto defraud ino of my rights. It is un-

all.It is also my belief that the immense

po, ularity of croquet, has something todo with tho alarming decline in matrimo-nial ventures, as it not only brings outtho disposition in an unfavorable light)but has a tendency to spoil it altogether!as well as to cultivate many objectiona-ble qualities. One thing may be said inits favor, however, that if you do comeout utfsoafhed from the fiery ordeal, youmust be very much of a saint indeed.

I think it inhighly wicked and ought to be frownedupon by orthodox people.

I was inveigled into it the other ove-ning, so I can speak from exneriiini. I

Jiud undoubtedly watched many a gamethrough the long summer days.

The Kentucky Burning Well.In connection with the recerrt visit of

the scientists to this city, and the pres-ence of a number of thoBQ gentlemenstill in oUr midst, the existence of a greatnatural curiosity in this State is suggest-ed, which has probably escaped their no-tice in their exfylm-atioTrs in Kentucky,and which will be of interest to them asto other readers.

Some six miles east of Crab Orchard,in Lincoln county, there is a springknown as the " Burning Well," situateaat tho very base of the Cumberland inoUn-tains, and on the banks of a small streamcalled Dix river. The water in this wollis iu a constant state of ebullition, andregularly every day( between 4 and 8o'clock in thd afternoon, overflows. Alarge quantity of gas is liberated, said tobe carburet ed hydrogen gas, to which alight being applied, a flame, sometimesten or fifteen feet in height, results. Theonly peculiarly curious feature tff thiswell is the diurnal and infallibly regularoverflow, as there are soveral " burningwolls," so called, in this and Other States.-One gentleman, who professes to have de-voted a good deal of time and attentionthe subjectt explains this phenomenon ortthe hypothesis thilt tile rarefaction of theatmosphere caused by heat relieves theatmospheric pressure upon the water up-wards. This might be satisfactory, butthat the phenomenon ocgurs some twohours subsequent to the time of averagehighest heat, and in the coldest months ofwinter, as in the hottest days of summer)always between the hours mentioned.The phenomenon has been mentioned be-fore, but never with a satisfactory expla-nation.

A good story is told, by the way, apro-pos of this well. In the earlier part ofthe present century, when Kentucky, andespecially the mountain districts) weretbut sparsely settled, a mart by the nameof Shanks owned this portion of Lincolncounty in which the woll is situated. Atthat time all the salt usod in tho Statohad to bo brought from Louisville, orimported frotu "Virginia at a very largeexpense in those days of stage coachesand covered wagons. JIf. Shanks hadevidence of salt on his land, and deter-mined upon trying Whether he might notfindth'it commodity by boring in the Vi-cinity of his salt licks. He sunk two orthree shafts, but Unsuccessfully, when hisneighbors began to laugh at 'OldShanks's folly." He minded not a whittheir jeers, but swore that ho would sinkone more shaft if lie bored clean throughinto hull.

Sure enough, after boriilg to quite adepth, his drill fell through, the drilling"shaft WHS blown soule distance into tli<$aii by escaping gas, which ignited froni afire near by, aud in an indescribably shortspace of time all the undergrowth, thdtrees near by, aud even the surface of theriver itself, formed one broad sheet offlame. Oil floWed out with the gas, whichaccounted for the " river on fire." All ofthis to the spectators was inoompiehensi-ble, and a genoTal stampede from theCountry round about resulted. Old Shankshad been as good as his word, lie hadbored clean through into hell, and hisneighbors fled as from a pestilence, leav-ing growing crops, houses, property of allsorts behind in the general terror.

Why does the well so overflow, aridWith such regularity ? At any other hourthan between those mentioned, that thegas may escape it is" first necessary topump off a large portion of the superiii-cUulbcnt Water. When this is done thoregular overflow does not occurj but whenthe well remains undisturbed through thoday the phenomenon is repeated with un-failing regularity. Nor does enough gas-percolate the water during any other pe-riod of day to bocomo ignited, although,us is said, a slight but constant ebullitiouis kept up below. Betwoon the hours of4 and o the water becomes sti'ongly agi-tated, artd, after the lapse df a few mo-ments, rises rapidly to tho level of theground, a distance of sevural feet, andoverflows; the gas is liberated at the samemomont, and although tho experimeUbhas been tried nearly every day for dnumber of years, burns brightly, on be-ing ignited, to a distance of from threeto si*, feet, varying in steady continuance

from half an hour toquarters in duration.

for by the guardian of the well, and bythe neighbors and occasional visitors-The water has a Strong saline taste, butsingularly enough, even after the surfacehas boon seemingly on fire for half anhour or more, it is as cold as before theoverflow.

I am sorry to say that my opponent didnot appreciate the magnanimity withwhieh 1 had treated him, but pursued mewith charafteristic ingratitude.

The Masmchusottg Pemocraoj'-At tho Massachusetts Democratic State

Convention, heH on the 14 th insfr, thofollowing resolutions wcro unanimouslyadopted:

Resolved, That1 the Democratic party ofMassachusetts declares its unaltered de-votion to the principle of governmentembodied in the Constitution of» theUnited States, and-demands an> adminis*tration which slinll faithfully observe andfairly construe its provisi> >ns to the enilthat the power of peace and war, the free-dots of electors, and the personal libertyof the citizen be no longor subject to thediscretion of one man.

Resolved, That a scrupulous regard forthe three co-ordinate departments of theX'nited States is essential to Republicanliberty. Wo thorafore denounce tho in-timidation of the Superior Court by Con-fress, and tho packing of the Supreme

anch by the President, with a view tolegalize repudiation, as equally calcula-ted to defeat the e*ui that the governmentshould be of laws and not of men.

Resolved, That the welfare and happi-ness of the peoplo is tho end, and the ele-vation of tho purest and ablest men tooffice the means of good government. Wethet tore demand that the policy whichhas 6. tailed misery, hatred and corrup-tion, dispensed by the most unworthyclasses of the community upon ten States,be abandoned, and tlu.t full amnesty audequal rights be assured ta all as tho onlymeans.of restonirfg good.government andtranquillity to the States lately in. re-bellion.

Resolved, ThaUlio rncent amendmentsto the Federal Constitution having beenacquiesced in by the country a* a final andabsolute settlement of tho issues growingout of our oivil war, the Democratic partyaocepti them in that spirit and dismissesttrom altogether from political contro-versy, pledging itself to maintain in goodfaith the Constitution in all its parts andin all its provisions.

Rewletd, That w the rights of the Statesreserved by tho 10th article of the amend-ment to the Constitution of the UnitedStates, which says: " The powers notdelegated to the United States by theConstitution, nor prohibited by it to theStates, are reserved to the States respec-tively, or to the people," constitute theo.ily safeguard against the late develop-ment toward a consolidated empire, wetherefore protest against the perbistent in-vasion of local self-government by Con-gress, to ask that the Constitution bestrictly construed in the interest of therights reserved to the States, as well as oftheir delegates to the general govern-ment.

Retolrvi, That the tariff on imports dis-turbs tho natural distribution of the To-wards of labor, by taking a share of thew.igo-s to swuli the profits of capital. Wo,therefore, resolve, in the language adopt-ed by the last Democratic State Conven-tion, that the labor of the country, weakby its necessities in its defenses againstthe cupidity of capitalists and in its ina-bility to compel a recognition of its justrights, especially needs the protection ofjust, equal, and adequate laws; and thatthe present high cost of living, and con-sequent inadequacy of wages to providesufficient means of support for our poorerpeople, is mainly due to the unjust eurrency system, the arbitrary and excessivetaxation, and the great monopolies whichhave been inflicted upon us by the Re-publican party.

Resolved, That all taxation being justBO much taken from each one's means ofhappiness, the closest economy is a para-mount duty in thoso.who administer thegovernment; nnd we charge the presentgovernment of our Stnte with unneces-sary outlay, exceeding one-quarter of amillion dollars yearly, which, added tothe enormous imposts of the generalgovernment made Massachusetts, in theword of Commissioner Wells, tako prece-dence over all the governments and com-munities in the civilized world in respectto-the extent and weight of its taxation.

Resolved, That we condemn the pro-hibitory law as an odious interferencewith personal liberty, the prolific parentof hypocrisy, corruption and crime, andan affront to pnblic decency, in the sur-render of all attempts to enforce the Irtwupon wealth and political influence; andwith its attendant satellite, th.:'. State con-stabulary, an invasion of municipal rightsand a degradation of the ordinary andappropriate means of tho enforcement ofthe laws.

Resolved, That the relations of the rail-road corporations to the Commonwealthought to be revised, that a new, direct,a i I immediate influence may be excr-o'ned by tho community over tho meansof internal communications; that frau-o'lises in the nature of monopolies, grant-e l to subservo the general' conveniencea id prosperity, should not be held for pri-•-ite profit only.

Resolved, That in the candidates put innomination by this convention we presentfor the suffrages of tho people the namesof eminent citizens in whose signal abili-ty and integrity the public can safolyconfide for an honest and orderly admin-istration of the government of the Com-monwealth.

From the Chicago Tribune.

Wanted To lin^w.Sccrotary Boutwell is adwrtised to de-

liver several ipeeohos in Ohio, hnginningnext week, when it is expected he willriee to explain the exact method in whichthe syndicate machine works. There i« awidespread desire for specific infortui\ttonas various reports highly detrimental tohis fiscal reputation are in active circula-tion. People are asking such questionsas theso: Whether he is authorized bylaw to pay eleven por cent, gold intereston one hundred and forty millions ofbonds for three months or any otherlength of time 'i Whether he is author-ized by law to increase the bonded debtby one hundred and forty millions tfiYiY-porarily or permanently, or to issue bondsbearing five per cent gold interest in ex-change for bank certificates of depositthat bear no interest if Whether he isauthorized bylaw to duplicate any of ourbonded debt in this w»y, and if so. howmuch? Why he did not oft'nr tho newfive per cent bonds to the public at thosame rate thathe gave tho brokers whomhe calls syndicates that is to say, whydo< s he let that ring have those bonds atninety per cent, when ho churgas everyone else ono hundred per cent, f

For the purpose of illustration, supposea bunker of Chicago-should- Kiibsoribe forsay $"300,000 of the- new five per centbonds, by what authority of law does theSecretary assume that the money has beonpaid for tiiem, when in fact not a dollarhas b8"n transferred to tho Treasury, andthereupon, ismve to the banker a certifi-e d for bonds to the amount of $300,000,which instantly begin to draw interestagainst th'-! government at the rate of$15,000 per annum t Is the matter bet-tered any by designating the said bankas a depository bank, and miking an en-try on the treasury books that #300,000of gold is deposited in the Chicago Bankfor ninety days without interest, andthat the bonds subscribed for are held insecurity for such deposit r1

It is seriously alleged that the Secretaryhas been doing precisely this thing; thatthe syndicate ring are drawing intereston $110,000,000 of avc per cent, bondswithout having paid for them or ad-vanced a cent on them, and there is nocertainty that they will take a singlebond at the end of the throe months.They may and they may not: but onething is sure, they will draw 01,730,000 ingold out of the Treasury for interest ona fictitious, bogus subscription. Therewill not bo a dollar of this $140,000,000 inthe Treasury on which interest is paiduntil next wintor. If the money werepaid over when it. is purported to be theSecretary wo'ild be able to purchase allthe live-twenty bonds at par that mightbe offered, and thereby s :.VJ at the rate ofsix per cent interest. But such is not theetise. The syndicate ring are drawingfive per ceut. interest in gold on 140,000,-000 of bonds not in thoir possession andnot paid for; the Treasury books hnvoentries showing that the government hnsloaned the syndicate bank* 140 millionsof gold wit!)-mt interest, for security onwhich they have deposited an oqiialamount of five per cent bonds, on whichthey draw interest; and yet all of thistransaction is a sheer deception, exceptthe drawing of the interest by the syndi-cate, which is a solemn fact to the extentof $1,750,000 out of the pockets of thetaxnayers. What may happen at the ex-piration of the ninety days of fraud an#deceit remains to be developed ; but inthe mttan time let us hav- Mr. Boutwell'aexplanation and excuso for this assinineperformance in finances.

Defalcation of Paymaster Hodge.The following is a complete copy of

Major Hodge's letter of confession :WASHINGTON, Sunday, Sept. 10, P.M.

General B. W. Brice :Sin : I have to inform you that I am

unable to close my accounts, and that Iowe the frightful amount of about $450,-000, which sum I have lost during tholast few years in etock speculations, go-ing deeper and deeper in hope of retriev-ing mysolf. I have no excuse or mitiga-tion of my course to offer, and proposfc totake the lull consequences of my sin. Ihad thought a week ago of escaping fromNew York, but believe I have doue bet-ter in returning here to deliver myselfup, as I felt bound to do. I can of course Imake no pretence of excuse for the sys-tematic deceit I have practised on youand the advantages I have taken of thespecial position I have held, and feel thatyou especially have cause to be justly in-exorable against me. 1 have been led onby the infatuation thut al ways attends thecourse I entered on, hoping to recovermy loss and conceal my crime. I believeit is really a r lief to be forced to a dis-covery, for I have been in a hell on earthfor years, and thj alternations oi hope andfear that I have gone through, and con-stant care to avoid detection, were be-coming too strong. I desire to turn overany property I have as a small set-offagainst my deficiency ; and, after havinggiven any information that will assist insettling my accounts, or, if possible, in re-covering a portion o*' what I have lost, Iexpect to tike the full punishment awar-ded for my offence. In Justioo fo twoparties in this city, through wianu 1 havemade some speculations, I wish to saythat tin y arc perfectly innocent of an;knowledge that I was using public money.

There are small balances with each ofthese p n ties to my credit whenever theaccounts are closed. The losses I havemade aro almost entirely in Saw Yorkwith ono house there, whose accounts 1hold subject to your order. 1 endeavoredto induce them to inaKe gwod the amountlost with them, whioh thoy knew waspublic money, but they refused. I havobeen trying to make up my mind to makothis confession for some days, and was onthe point of doing so this morning inyour office, buf 1 could not bring myselfto say it, and wanted time to writ*; to myinnocent wife, whom this frightful infor-mation will kill. God forgive me forwhat I have done to her and my chil-dren ! All I ask from you or tue authori-ties is that, if possible, so.tii- :n ill sum maybe left to her. I enclose the 1 ys of mysafe and box containing my old looounta,&c. My present vouchers, teeeipts, &o.,are in tho Lauds of my floras, who Oreall of them perfectly innocent ol anyknowledge of iny defi -icy. I shall re-main at my honse, No. 14*3 K Street, tillinformed what action you h tve takenconcerning me. There is no tea: I willgo tiw-~y now.

FRIDAY

INSTEAD of giving uu »«uiwii ^. »<recent speech of Mr. QBOB8BZOK, deliv-ered at Steubenville, Ohio, the 11 idicaljournalists disposed of it with this brieftelegram :

" Hon. W. S. Groe*beck delivered apolitical speech at Steubenville yesteidny.lie dcnoun<:od tl»c Fourteenth and Fif-teenth Amendments to the Constitution."

Mr. GuoiisiiECK did no such thing. Hecensured the manner in which theseamendments were forced into ti:c Consti-tution, but conceded their validity, andadvised against any effort to sot themaside or rovoko them. He claimed tiialtho Suproine Court had no jurisdictionand could not bo gat to rule againstthorn, »nd said, " w may not look to th" people to< combine to ovorthrow them" in. some other way." And he contin-ued: " The people have already sooeptec" them. Tho destruction of slavery is" acknowledged and approved by all, and"our colored population have voted inev-" ery State in the Union, at our local and"gonoral elections again nnd again, and" without challenge or molestation. Th" ajAtrtJ':vn't trill xtnnd. Suffrage once

"grantjdean not bo recalled. Suffrage" that has been practical will not bo sur-" rendered. I approve thi action of our"recent convention on this subject."—What kind of denunciation is that ?

Mr. GKOESBECK truly represents theposition of the Democratic party of theUnion. Tho amendments are not now alissue. Before th'ir adoption oppositionwas legitimate, but it is not opposition todissent from the method adopted to se-cure their adoption. In the Constitution the Democracy recognize them asbinding, but insist that they be construedas constitutioml provisions have alwaysbeen construed, so as equally to protectnational, State, aud individual rightsThat i* now the issue. Let the intelligonicitizen mark it and study it while it isyet to-day.

THE aggregate cost of the four years oiBtTClTANAx's administration was $20:},-(561,197.76, Or an average yearly cost oi$38,918,249.44. This was exclusivo of in-terest and principal of the public debt, or,in other words, for the ordinary expensesof the national government. Under-stating the then population of the na-tion at 30,000,000 and the cost per hoadfor each year was $2.19.

During the first year of GUAVT'S ad-ministration, the ordinary expenses—ex-cluding payments on account, of interesland principal of the public debt—were$190,796,355. Overstating the populationat 40,000,000, the GRANT administrationfor his first year cost tho people, per head$1.76, or $2.57 por head in excess of thoBucnANA.v administration.

Wednesday, and of his speech the tele-graph stys it " was of groat length, can-did, impartial, and well received." Alsothat " he was emphatic in his disapproba-tion of the policy of tho present adminis-tration, and in his frequent expressionsof apprehension of the result to our re-publican institutions to follow its perpet-uation in pnwer." But as Gon.

THE New York City imbroglio stillcontinues—in the leading dailies, and dis-patches and rumors and predictions bur-den tho telegraph, and afford a fine fieldfor a display of taste and talent in get-ting up sensation headings. To us itlooks, just now, more like a personal con-tost, or perhaps a contest of ring witliring than anything else. No doubt therehas been peculation and fraud and steal-ing, but the effort seems to bo go get atwhat is left in the treasury rather thanto punish in a legitimate way the plunder-ers.

, — Tho game Republican journals whichtorturo Mr. Groesbock's recent Steuben-ville speech into a denunciation of the14th and lffth Amendments, will proba-bly similarly construe this enunciation olthe Djmoorats of Minnesota at their lateconvention : " Rixolce I, That we recognize" as binding tho Constitution of the" United States as it now exists." It ifimpossible to satisfy our Radical friends,and it is hardly worth while to try.

— Theodore Tilton says that VictoriaC. Woodhull, coming up through muchtribulation, "has flowered into a noblewoman." And Victoria C.

— Butler is ahead of any single Radi-cal competitor in the Massachusetts gub-ernatorial race, and it is feared that evena combination of interests can not defeathim, in view of which the Detroit Tr&urusays: " The general situation in Massa-chusetts at present can be more heartilyenjoyed by Democrats than by Republi-cans."

— The N. Y.

— Thiers is reported " subject to fits ofprostration, which generally come aftorspells of anger."

The. Mont Cents Tunnel.The opening of the Mont Cenis tunnel

which is annQunoed by tiio cable, is on<of the greatest, perhaps the greatest en-gineering feat of the iif e, unless the BaoxCanal may dispute the palm with it inthis respect. Trains are now runningfrom Italy into Franco, by this tunnel,over and through the Alps. Its construc-tion was a work of groat difficulty, bsingabout eighlt miles in length, and at sucka depth bciujath tho surface as to rendershafts impracticable. It could thereforebo worked from each end only, and seri-ous difficulties were encountered to venti-lating as well as expediting the opera-tion, which, at the usual rate of excava-tion, would have occupied at least fortyyears. A new method of ventilating anddriving, however, w is applied, by whichthe tunnel was extended at a compara-tively rapid rate. Thy inception of thisextraordinary fliitorpriio is said to havebeen due to Counts R itazzi and Cavour,and Italian capital and skill havo beenlargely embarked in it.

The highest point of the old road madeby the French in 1810 is 0,77'! feet abovethe sea—between Savoy and Piedmont.But this was a wago:i road, and now tholocomotive goes through more difficultpasses. Tho ^Ijnt Couis summit railway,which is upon a portion of tho road bedof tho Mont Conis pass, was in itself agreat railway achievement. This railwaywas about forty-nine miles in length, andfor the purpose of increasing adhesion,without increasing weight of engine, aform qf center rail was introduced, andthe engine had, in addition to the ordi-narv perpendicular wheels, four horizon-tal wheels, two on each side, which weremade to rotate along tho side of tho cen-ter rail by the same stem from the cylin-der that operated upon the perpendicularwheels. With the sle.im acting only uponthe horizontal, the engine ascended an in-clino of one in twelve, equal to four hun-dred in the mile, drawing sevon tons, andwith steam applied to all the wheels,drawing twenty-four tons.

Mont (Vuis is a remarkable mountain,butb in itself and historically. It is anlevated plateau 6,773 feet above tho sea

level, with a peak rising to the height of1,1,454 feet. It was over this pass thatl'i |.m Led tho French army in 770, againsttho King of the Lombards, in aid of PopeStephen III. Noarly one thousand yearsttter Catinot, Marshal of France, crossed

it with his forces in the wars of Loui.sXIV., and somewhat improved the pass,though it was still of difficult transit, and>nly for mules. In order to facilitate thentercourso across the Alps, Napoleon or-

dered a road to bo laid out and construct-ed, eighteen feet wide, for a distance ofihirty miles. But this achievement ofS'apoleon, and his military crossing ofhe Alps, as well as that, of Hannibal, aroar surpassed in difficulty and benefit toMankind by the peaceful railroad tri-mipus which have reached their consum-uittion in tho completion of the MontConis tunnel.

The Lesson of Maine.Notwithstanding the prostration of in-

dustry in Maine by a tariff t'aJsely calledprotective, that State has voted oneti morelo sustain tho party originating and up-holding such a tamf, and has given it anoverage majority upon a pretty lull vote.It is tiut! tiio ounvass was a quiet one :the "still huut" was prelerreu by themanagers on both sides. Yet tho tanttquestion was brought to the attention otvoters quite wiUeiy, and in some locali-ties with marked and favorable etfout.Oilier pauteti more th:m balancing this,gave gains to the Repuulican party, andsecured a. majority lor i'c'rh tin a littlelarger, judging from tho early returns,tumi was given him in 187 h

Are we to infer, tueii, that the peoplo ofMaine want to have continued tndt tariffuy which thoir chief industry lias beenprostrated f Do they love tue systemwhich depresses all tuoir business, ciiivespopulation from the State, and gives tothat common wealth, so gloriously endow-ed by nature, an unenviable reputationas one of the two Northern btates inwhich population has actiuuly diminishedwithin thu last decade 'i We do not be-liovo it. In oldou times Maine was themorning star oi many Democratic victo-ries, ana her peoplo, then trained to thodelenso of sound Uualteial opinions, haveoniy been greatly strengthened in theirconvictions by the severe experiencethrough which they have pissed hi neemonopolists gained power. If the peopleof Maine were to vote upon tho tariffquestion directly and exclusively, proba-bly not more than one-third of thetawould sustain the protective system. Butother interests supposed to be involved inthe election, and uuovo all attachment topart)', influence thoiu to adhere still to aticket which, however strongly it mayhave been identified with the protectivepolicy, nevertheless represented theirwishes and prejudices in Other respects.It is duo to tho Democracy of Mune tosay that they made an earnest etfort toavoid old prejudices and defunct ques-tions, and to confine the contest to topicsof the living present and near future.Their platform was widely noticed as apeculiarly progressive and liberal one,and their candidates wcro popular, liutMaine does not stand alono. So close hasbecome the connection and interdepend-ence of organizations in the differentStates under that Radical rule whichtends to fuse all States into a centralizednationality, and all local combinationsinto one national party, that the gibber-ing! of a political ghost away in someSouthern State have as much effect uponthe voters of Maine as the utterances ottheir own candidates. No matter howfully tho Maine Democracy accepts thesolution of war problems every mutter otdissent from any othor quarter is gather-ed up by Radicalism as proof th it thenational iJeinocratic party doe»no . holdthe sa ue position, an i that the Democratsof M uue are either gu:lty of fraud or aroin a mini r iy in the party, and would bopowerless to shape its course if it shouldwinpower. I ideed, such is the effect ofsuspicion and prejudice that iobor citizensof a Northern Stato actually believe that

1 the incoherences of persons far aw iy, inStates where no present political contestgives shape to discussion, are a batter testof the will of the Democratic party thanfie known aud daily avowed opinions oitheir own Democratic neigh jors. Thusit comes to pass that every effort to putaside sett led questions in Maine is defeat-ed by the immobility of political fosstliin Georgia. The evil done by one gooso-quill, wandering without competentguidance over paper in a newspaper of-fice at the South, outweighs all the goodthat can be done by fifty thousand intel-ligent citizens of Mnine striving to ridthemselves of oppressive taxatio i. Ab-surd as that prejudice is which acceptssuch utterances a* proof of the purposeof a party, it is one of the vital facts oiour time, and any politician who do s notwish to rival Mr. Stephens hinis ;lf inpractical unwisdom will not attempt toiguore it.

Other influenc c i contributed to make itimpossible to secure from tho people ofMaine a fair verdict upon economicalquestions. But the chief was this rootedproju lice agiinst Demo :racy rogardi gwar quest! >ns, so eff .ctivoly stiiuul tedintoa;tivity by wild worts aud a:;ts oiDemocrats in other sections. Instead otblinking this fact it is wiser to face it, andto comprehend that no "new departure."om be ert':ctivo for good until it eniSiracosDemocrats of all the Statefl and tindsformal expresson in a national conven-tion. Until then Radicals will declareand will easily make men believe, thatthe few who maunder about the past areboth more numerous and more potent intho Democratic party than the many whowork intelligently and honestly for thofuture. Until tin n prejudice will makemen accept any crazy Bourbon as a bet-ter representative of the party than anyState convention. Even then, unless thecourse of tho national convention shallbo be such as to meet and crush this prej-u lice, and to force upon public consider-ation new issues, tho same causes whichwrought defeat in Maine will prove po-t'lil elsewhere; the same assaults upon

tin; party will be invited by similar folliesOf word and act; and those new ques-tions upon which public opinion sustainsDemocracy, and would visit Radicalismwith overwhelming rebuke, will still bodriven from the attention which theymorit.—yew York World.

The Steplieiis-Todinbs Plutforn.The Louisvillo Courier-Journal, one of

the ablest journals published in the South,has a very pointed and w«ll timed articleon the tolly of attempting to mako thespeeches of Mr. Toomos and the o<litori-als of Mr. Stephens, of Georgia, tho basisof a platform for a political campaign.a-.d asks how many Congressional dis-tricts can bo carried in the NorthernStates on such an issue. In answer tothis inquiry wo say that if it wore possi-ble to present tho issue proposed by Mr.Stephens and Toombs pure and simple,wo do not believe a single district in theentire Northern States would elect amember holding such views and opinions.It is utterly impossible to even suppose ai*roat party, containing so many ablo men

tho Democratic party now has. shouldo Mimiit the folly of appealing to the:ountry on such an issue alono, but frompast experience wo aro sorry to say thatby the persistence of a few in the hurryiml excitement of a great convention itis possible to introduce such a folly intotho platform, and although it may be ro-iected, its bare introduction will produceilmost incalculable injury. States andJongressional districts would reject it orignore it and carry on the contest on lo-cal issues, but it would provo very disas-;rous. Wo fully believe that tho Kepub-ican party on such an issue would carryvery State in the North for President,

and more than two thirds of those in thoSouth. That party would go into thenow Congress with more than two-thirdof all the members, and would thus havo;ho power to override and crmh out allopposition,and make such alt rations andibanges in the. Constitution that tho leal-;rs of that party might deem necessary

any party in a free government ha* hrciinod, and there is no probabilityI '••! will be sustained, in an at-

• an)' portion oi the citi-derfs <Jf tho country of the right of suf-frage once fWly extended to them, andthis i« right,"tew. For ourselves w n-our fully in the riotn so ably presentedby Mr. Groesbeok in his recent Bpeeofa atSteubenville, Ohio, and we would not, ifw e h a d t h e p o w e r , d e p r i v e t h e colored j>-.i>-nlsitiou of a single right or privilege grant»ed to them by the terms of the amend*meni I made to the Constitution duringor since the war.

If the Democratic party afe over tosucceed, tley must accept the tiMasiorias it is—not partially, not grudgingly, notwith any mental reservation, bat frankly,fully and in good faith, and with a fixe iand immovable determination to oarfythem into off ct for the benefit oil thoseWhom they we-e intended to relieve f*omtho condition of servitude. When we dothis, and turn our whole attention So thecorruptions whioB have been practiced bythe party in power—when we make theissue of a strict construction of the Con-stitution, of the preservation of the rightsof the States from all eacroachments onthe part of the general government, _.well as the gennral government from allattempts to weaken or destroy it—whenwe oall upon tli,- masses to rally to thewatchwords of retrenchment audYeform,of economy aud a faithful administrationof the laws and tho Constitution—then\vt- .-'mil gnocved, and not tiil then. Thepeopl« are almost beginning to despair of

public because, (be rims of corrup-tion andjBxtravaganco has so universallypeBotrated every department of the gov-ernm nt. The party in power cannotand 'lire not .'i'tempt to make the reformsdemanded by the times. This is th<- mis-sion of tho minority. This is their strongvantage ground. They can lose the bat-tle if they throw away their position andattempt impossibilities, but the time willcome when tho people will hurl the cor-rupt men from power and place honestand pure men in their places, or the re-public will have a more lamentable down-fall than that of Rome.—Detroit FreePn»

A Japanese Pr?shnt to the AinericnllMinister.

The Yokohama corrtwpondenco of theNevada KnterprUr, in an account ot anentertuinrnent given to Minister DeLongby a power Japanese Prince, says :

Upon alighting, we were greeted withcordial welcome nnil especial politeness,and at once were escorted to tho recep-tion and entertainment room, where wefound actor.o( jujr@fler3, musicians, and attoast ftftj; dark cVod, singing girls, in-BtruOted to minister to the wants ornniusomenfc of the guests. After a briefprelude from their orchestra the troupeof jugglers appeared before us and por-fonned countless feats of legerdemainwith a dexterity surprising to us all.Tho [post peculiar and artistic foat Wascalled the " Magic Butterfly?" and as Ihad see.ii tho trick attempted by Japaneseand 0hinOW »t home, the surpassing skillait i nfeatne*) of the grave and seriouslooking performer provoked my warmestadmiration. Indeed, the science of thisfellow as far exceeded 'the weak attempts1 h id before witnessed, as tho wondrousdramatic representations of Hon. lioliDowery or <ioOru,V Cain, l5*q., did thestale eloquence of Forest, Booth, or Mo-Kean Buchanan.

The artist tooh pieces, of silk gflrtfee andmade them iut» imitation Imttuill en. Uaa low table ho arranged «ottie bouquets offlowers, and his preparations were com-plete. Stepping back a few paces he un-folded a fan, und instantly tho air wastilled with the automaton insoets. Slow-ly waived tins air endowed Wattd and\liile. some of tho butterflies circledround and above his head, others sought

the carnation buds of the bouquets, linger-ed lovingly on each bright blossom an in-stant, grouped on a large rose, flutteredas ia HighU und at last at a gentle mo-tion of the muster. Hew to his side andwere slowly gathered together. It wassimply astouishiiig, and our hearty ap-plause obtained a repetition of the artist'sskill. Meanwhile the feast had begun,ftnd as the wino circulated actors display-ed their merits, young girls touched thenational guitar with tender melody, na-tional ana war songs were chanted, fire-works of exceeding beauty gleamed inthe entwining foliage.*) at least two scoreof lovely young girls swayed hither andthither in the voluptuous dance of their:lan, and, in brief, we were entertained

in a style far eieeading that of any pre-vious feast which it has been my goodfortune to attend. As the sparkling winefelaxcil the sociability of our keen-ej'exllicmt, he asked the interpreter to inquireof tile Minister which of the girls hedeemed the loveliest. The question wasa delicate one, and thediplomt hesitated ;but on being pressed he pointed out atall, lithe, graceful girl, whose eyes,shaded by drooping lashes, disclosed oc-casionally flashes of lightning fervor,and whose carnation lips, faultless fea-tures and ill-concealed bust would havethrilled an iceberg.

" She is yours ! " cried the Takonin." Advance to your master ! " Instantly,with face dyed with crimson, she ad-vanced to the seat of the Minister, pros-trated her beautiful face to the mattingand knelt, his willing slave.

We were all tilled with astonishment,as this episode unfolded a curious andnovel phase of Japanese life. Upon be-ing questioned the host said it Was Usualto make such -gifts to honored friends ;that tho next day he should visit theparerttsof the girl, pay them two or threehundred riofl (a rio is one dollar and sixcunts, gold), secure her futnrc clothingand food, and all was well. So that,whether the girl bo taken as a concubineor as a servant, it Was all that wa* re-quired.

PeLottg, of course, declined the bounti-ful gift, with ma?>y esjirivwonevll' Ihuliks:but I sa\»* UiS eye glisten, and I knew hewas human—yet anybody would be hu-man—ai\d I knew that the refusal to iu:-cept the thrilling tribute was on a purwith my own youthful discipline, whenmy sainted mother used to caution me

\VirAT Mvsrn u:i' HIM.—Recently, twopersons traveling on the road to Gothamn a light wagon were smoking cigars,from the fire of which some straw at thebottom ignited. The flames soon droveIhem from their seats, and while theywere busy extinguishing the fire a coun-tryman who had been following them forsouie time) on horseback, alighted to as-sist them.

" I have been Watching the smoke forsome time»" said he.

" Why, then, did you not give us notice V"»skpd the travelers.

"Well," replied the rustic, "there areso many new-fanglwd notions now-a-days,;hat I thought you wore going by steam."

Italy, during the school year from 1870to 1871, had 38,300 public schools, with1,677,664 pupils. Of the teachers 2,002were Indies. Public schools are morenumerous in the northern part of thatcountry than in the southern. "Whilethe province of Turin contains 2,t)()8, thatof Caltanisetta has only 141.

A woman went into a store and askedthe proprietor it' ho had any black hell's!ggs* '• Don't know one kind from theother," said he ; " but there's a basketfulof oggs there on tho counter." "I canell them " said the customer. " Wellhen help yourself," said the dealer. Slir

Buy Cattle to Fatten in the Winter.The liberal and constant application

manure is the grand basis upon whiehrests successful farming. Of mantirothere are three kinds—th'e so-called arti-ficial manures, the green manures, and

or barn-yard dung. Each in itst

iin or b y gpjaoe is necessary t o a proper enrichmentof the soil, and the obtaining of oil is amatter of much importance. Now, theheading of our present articlo leads us toa consideration of the manufactnre of thelitter manure: To make plenty of barn-yard manure a namber of stock, must bekept, and such should be richly fed ; foras the fodder is rich, so will the manurebe impregnated with a maximum amountof those rich elements which go to in-crease the growth of the plan*.

Whilo endeavoring to fatten a greatnumber of head of cattle, the question ofa profitable return for the food suppliedhas t» be cansidterei as inseparablyconnected with the manufacture of richmanure. We have seen beasts put up tofatten who have eaten more than theyhave made. A thin beast, put up in thecold weather, takes a great amount of hisfood for the purpose of supplying thoBecessary heat to the body; while ananimal in good order has a heat-produc-ing store in his own fat, which allows allthe extra food to be taken up in produc-ing more meat. We may lay it down asan axiom that it will not pay to put up athin beast to fatten upon stored or win-ter food.

Pigs should be put up to finish off assoon as they have begun to exhaust thestubbles; and cattle should be stalledwhen by running upon fall pastures theyHave got t*i«mselves in good order, andBe fore the cold weather has nipped downth ) grass.

Those farmers who have now a piece oflow pasture will do well to go off intothe higher sections to buy cattle. Intieso latter parts the pasturage is muchburned up, and there cattle may bebought at a reasonable figure for cash.

Take such cattle and put them upona low-lying piece of ground, and it is as-tonishing with what rapidity they willincrease in weight. After August thetill pasturage will be ready for them;take them off this as soon as very coldnights set in, and stall feed. They willbe the very best of beef by Christinas.

In this way alone, as a rule, can winterfeeding of stock for the butcher be madeprofitable. The animal is growing fromAugust to December without a day'scheck. We have bought steers in Augustfor $35 each, and sold tho same beforeChristmas lor $65, only stall feeding forabout six weeks.

Money may bo made in the currentyear by growing and selling a largebreadth of grain, but it is made at theexpense of our future income. Fatteningof stock is the most profitable manner inwhich to apply our farm producp. for wohave profit from the animals an.1 manuretobo.it.-

Tue greater porti^Si of ottT produceshould not be carrion to town in thewagon, but should walk off tin farm.

At the same time there is snt'li a thingas putting more feed into a beast thanhis increase will pay'tor. If we adopt asan axiom that an animal should alwaysbe in good order before put up for stallfeeding in winter, we cannot go farastray;.—MMmgftn Farmer.

Fattening Hogs.Iheroiguo-eooHomjr greater, than that

which leads a well-to-do farmer1 to tfuttenhis hogs early in the season, at least tobegin to start them in tha fall, so thatthey can have the benefit of the feed:while they axe in the condition to lay onfat. Here is tfce experience of an Illinoisfeeder who writes to the Prairie Fanner :

"Some years ago, two of my neighborsand myself took hogs to feed by thepoandV "We took our hogs the same day,and returned them to the owner the sameday. My neighbors said to me at thestart, that they were going to beat me inmaking pork, so I did about as well as Icould. They had the first pick from theherd, and selected about ninety smooth,straight hogs. I took one hundred andsixty. .

" My neighbors fed their hogs threetiines per day, having rye ground andmade into slop, for two of the meals, andthe third was of corn in tho ear. Wecommenced about the 1st of September.My hogs were put into stubble fields wellset with wheat, rye and oat stubble.They gleaned over some 150 acres. I fedthem some wheat in the sheaf once a day.then oats once a day for a couple of•Wdaks. I then cut up green corn, andf jd stalks and all for ten days, at the endof which time they were turned into aft/e-acre lot, then into a nice fifteen-acrefl )ld of timothy and white clover.

" In this pasture I placed five troughsia which I kept a good supply of bran,salt and wood ashes, mixed togother inthe proportions of say two bushels ofbran, half a bushel of ashes and half aBushel of salt. I then commenced feed-ing them husked corn in the ear, scatter-ing it well over the sod, so that all couldget a chance to eat. I gave them suffi-cient at a time to last them eight or nined«ye. When they liad cloaned it up wellanother similar allowance was given them.Having previously tested tho time ittfckes a lot of hogs, say 50 head, to eat 50Dushols of corn, I found that one bushelwould last, fed in this way, six days, so Ieasily got at the allowance needed.

"On the day of delivery my friendsweighed their hogs and found that theyhad gained about two and one-halfpounds per day in the fifty days they hadbeea feeding them. Mine showed a gainof 180 pounds per hog, so you see wherethe beat ' camo in.'

" Now for tho philosophy of my planof feeding: I found by watching theHabits of my hogs that th' y would, whenfed my way, get up very early in thomorning, and while the dew was on, takesome feed on the grass, return past thetroughs and take some of the mixture,then go to the corn and make out a break-fast. They would then take a sleep tilltoward noon, when they would go towater, take a drink, then take anotherfeed of grass, and then corn again, tillabout five o'clock ; then grass, corn, and• sleep. At about ten o'clock they wouldquietly get up and take a feed of corn,<jlu.ii sleep until about threo o'clock in themorning, when their fifth meal. Thismanner of taking food was regular ingood weather."

Fall Plowing for Spring Sowing.Much injury is done to heavy clays and

loams by plowing while too wot; rauc'ten in the fall, of oaarse, than in <lispring. Then, plowing while too wot isalmost fatal to tho crop. There is moremoney lost by Western farmers on wornlands by spring plowing whiln too wot,than from any other cause ; and land isalways to wet when it will not immedi-ately crumble and become fine again be-tween the fingers after having bucisqueezed in the hand.

We havo seen many farmers plowingtheir land in tho fall, when the waterwould show and in some cases follow inthe furrow; and havo eean it done in thespring. The first is a very injudiciouspractice ; the last simply an outrage onnature. I t is true that in sod, and beforethe sod becomes rotten, the danger is notso great, but the evil is there, only in lessdegree. Land never plowed except whendry will remain intact for years; oneplowing while wet will ruin it to such adegree that years of labor will not bringit back to its normal condition. Hut fewfanners always have their fields in a soft,porous, friable condition. The manyfields are lumpy, and, in so far as thisprevails, consequently unfertile. Thoprincipal cause is plowing while it is wet.This applies to the strong loams ann claysour rich prairie soils. Those sufficientlysandy are always friable, because nevertoo wet. During the autumn, our prairie soils are generally in condition forplowing. If carefully plowed, left rough,and with sufficient dead furrows to carryoff surplus water, our loams and clayswill come into condition for seeding froma week to ten days earlier in tho springthan land left unplowed, and if nottouched until it is in condition, will visually be fit for the seed without replowing.This is even time if com is to be plantedthereon, and, if it need replowing, theland may be sufficiently stirred to insurea good tilth with any of the good fiveiharo walking cultivators. If there areany who do not believo it is bad prac-tice to plow land even in the fall, whenwet, let them plow a portion while in thiscondition, and other land when dry.Plowed just before frost comes the dif-ference will not be so apparent, becauseat this 6eason the sun being low, has notso great action iifxm it as to cause it tosate, or rather it is frozen up while stillwet, and the expansive power of the frostupon the water in the soil causes it tojreak and crumble. I t is sometimes ajretty nice matter to determine whattoils nre, and.whatsoils nre not, better for'all plowing; but, as a rule, all clays andoams are bettor for it, if they are U> be

sown to any of the small grains in thespring. For all crops it is lieHor it'youightly replow in the spring. I t has beenruly said that drouth scares the fanner,mt that water utterly destroys his hopes.This is true in more senses than one. If.he spring be wet and unpropitious, itwill certainly neutralize beneficial effects,n some degree, of fall plowing. But if(lowed while dry in the fall, one can f<> 1>etter able to wait lot the land to comento condition, than he who leaves all tohe spring. Therefore, plow in the fall,he more the bolter, Dttt never when wet.

The Check-Rein.It is a disputed fact whether the uso of

lie eheck-rcm is useless, or of so much in-convenience to the horse ivs to amount to

irunl Infliction. In considering tinsquestion we. should remember that the"heck-rein is not the same thing under1) cireuuistonces. A high-bred, highlyil find pamparcd carri»ge-horfB under

the control of a check-rein cannot bo con-sidered in the suu Light as a hard-work-ed and broken-spirit,nl cart-horse. Thoone needs the restraint of the check-reinto bring him under that complete com-mand without which it would be unsafeto drive him. The po-ition of the headis not in this case any source of pain orinconvenience, for the exertions of thehorso .are only very slightly taxed to drawthe light carriage and its occupants. Onthe other hand, a horse taxed to the ut-most to draw heavy loads over roadswhere the footing is far from secure (ason the slippery streets of a city) is neverfound to be so tightly reined up as theshowy horse attached to the elegant car-riage, wher» appearance is the great do •sideratum; and he has, therefore, agreater command over the position of hishead. Horses used for heavy work, asdrawing wagons or carts in cities, andplows and harrows on farms, vore rarely,if ever, are found hampered with a tightchock-rein. And it is in the case of thesehorses that the greatest complaints aremade. Consequently, these complaintsare to some extent ill-founded. The factis, the check-rein, under some circumstan-ces, is as necessary to the control of ahorse as tho bit and bridle, and the restof the harness. It is only when a hard-worked, heavy-laden brute is too tightlyreined up that it becomes a hindrance tohis power of working ; and tho owner ofsuch an animal, if he knows anything atall, will not permit him to be so incon-venienced by it as to impair his useful-ness.

A Kew ftenderlng of an Old Text.Spending a winter as invalids at Aikcn,

South Carolina, the lion. Thurlow Weedand Mr. Thomas C. Acton whiled awayone Sabbath afternoon by attending anegro church, and were accompanied byMr. John A. Konn.-dy, who was on avisit of a few days to Mr. Acton. Whenthey entered the primitive temple thepreacher, who was a juire African, wasgrappling with all tho fervor of his racewith the old, old story of the fall of man.Sketching that day in the Garden withits terrible results, he excoriated MrAdam in this fashion:

" Now, brederen, when do Lord callsAdam to 'count, did he stan' up like aman, confess his sin and ask forgiveness !He didn't do n tiffin of de sort, brodercnbut he s:iy:

" ' Lord, de woman dat Dou gubest megub me for to cat.' "

Pausing a moment he repeated :" De woman dat Dou gubest me gub

mo for to eat.' 'Then again:" ' De woman dat Dou gubest mo gul

me for to cat.' "" Dar, brederen, you see dat mean

skulkir;' Adam was a, tryin' to sneak ouof it by frowin' all de blame on do Lorthisself."

This now idea of an old question wa.too much for the distinguished " whittrash," who had fortunately taken seat?ne'ir the door, and they retired into thofields to indulge in irreverent laughter.—Tlie " Club Boom" of the. Galaxy for October

Host Time Ktir Painting Houses.Tli : boat time for painting tho cxtorior

of buildings is lato in the autumn, or dur-ing the winter. Paint then applied willendure twice as long as whon applied inearly summer or in hot weather. In thformer it dries slowly and becomes hard,like a glazed surface, not easily affectedaftejwa-ds by the weathor or worn off bythe beating of storms. But in vory hotweather the oil in the paint soaksinto the wood at once, asinto n,_ sponge, leaving the leadnearly dry and nearly ready to crumbleAX. The last difficulty, however, might,

in a manner, bo guarded against, thoughat an increased expense, by first goingover the surface with raw oil. By paint-ing in oold weather, one annoyance mightcertainly be escaped ; namely, the collection of small flies on the fresh paint.—Technologist.
