ATTEMPTED SALE OF A WIFE.

On Saturday afternoon an Engllshman,
who said his name was Jehel Jones, that he
was mason by trade, and had arrived here
with his wife and family, ealy the present
month, made his appearance in the vicinity
of the horse market with his wife, whom
he had tied blythe arm with handkerchief
and who walked little in his rear, with
downcast eyes, and her hands clenched be-
fore her. Behind them followed three
little children, apparently ofihe ages of5,
4 and 3 years, the middle one boy, bate-
footed and in rags. The clothing Of the
mother, who was in her stocking feet,
though ragged. appeared clearly; her hair
was smoothly disposed of, and her appear
ance was decidedly to her advantage. She
might have been 90 years old, but not more;
her husband was perhaps Ave years senior.
In this fashion they walked about in the
vicinity of the market more than an hour
before they were spoken to by any person,
though the singulariiy OF their appearance
and movements attracted the notice OF
good many.-Curiosity finally prompted
several individuals to accost them.and in re-.
DIV to their queries, Jones stated that he had
brought his wife there to sell. to provide
means for rescuing the children from starva-
ton. He was some WI hat surprised when told
that such things were not tolerated here.
and said il was often done in England even
against the consent Of the wife: and as
Mrs. Jones had acceded 10 the measures for
the sake offer starving little ones. he ap.
peared to think it particularly hard that it
could not be done here. Quite large col
lection of persons. attracted BY the novelty
Of the the thing, soon gathered about them
amongst whom a contribution, amounting
to nearly six dollars. was made and pre-.
scented TO them-which sum they appeared
to consider almos, prnccly fortune. One
of the gentlemen present gave this dislrcs
sed family shelter in his barn. TIL some-
thing better could be done for them, and
they were soon supplied by families in the
vicinity with food and covering sufficient
to make them comfortable over Sunday
1t appeared from their statement that they
had been transported TO this country by the
parish authorities of Bristol, BY whom thew
had been maintained for several months, q
white swelling on his leg having disabled
the father from labor. He is now, however
already recovered from his lameness, and
will soon be able to 60 to work-of which
he soon will have abundance. and good pay

TIE LATE PRINCESS CHARLOTTE.

Heb. xi. l3, "Thcsc all died in faith, not
having received the promises, but having
seen them afar off were persuade | of them,
and embraced them, and confessed that they
were pilgrims and strangers on the earth"
A clergyman having occasion to wait on
the late Princess Charlotte. was thus address,
ed by hcr:-"Sir, | understand you are a
clergyman" "Ycs." '.Permit me to ask
your opinion, sir, what is it that makes a
death bed casy?' Mr.. W. was startled at
SO serious question from young & bloom
ing female of so high rank, aud modcs:ly
expressed his surprise that she should con-
suit him, when she had access to many
much more capable of answering the lnqui-
ry. She replied that she had proposed it to
many, and wished to cocc: various opinions
on this important subiec.. Mr.. ". then
felt it his du:y to be explicit, and affection
ately recommended to her the study Of the
Scri p;urcs, which, as he stated, uniformly
represent faith in the Lord Jesus Christ as
the only means to make a death bed easy.
"Ah!" said she, bursting into tears, ''that Is
what my grandfather often told me; but
then he used to add, that beside reading the
Bible, | must pray for the Holy SPirItto ua'
ders:and the meaning"
Charlotte was daughter OF George ~,
and hciress to the throne of Great Britain and
Ireland, was born in 1895, and died Nov.
6, 1917, aged %. She was married to Loop
old, prince ofSaxc Coburg; and her untmely
death, in connection with that of her infant
child, clothed the nation in mourning, chan
ged the succession of the throne, and drew
forth among other able funeral discourses,
one by the Rev. Robert Hall, which is a
master piece of eloqucncc, probably never
cqualcd on any similar OCCASION.
When informed of the death Of her Child
little before her own, she said, Il feel 1t
as mother naturally should" adding, at

Mr.. Hall mentions as traits of her charac-
ter, "that she visited the abodcs of the poor,
and learned to weep With those who weep ;
that surrounded with the destinations of plea
sure, she was not inebrated by its charms,
but she resisted the strongest temptations to
pride, preserved her ears open to truth, was
impatient of the voice of flattcry; in word,
that she sought and cherished the inspra.
tons of fpiety, and walked humbly with God"
This is the fruit which survives when the
flower withers-thc only ornaments and
treasures we can carry into eternity.

PRESERVING EGGs.-The present season
Of the year in which farmers and others
should provide themselves with stock OF
eggs for the season, as eggs are both cheaper
and better in May and June than they are
at any other season Of the year. Good
fresh eggs property prepared will keep at
least year, and have been kept much
longer. Eggs dipped in varnish have
been sent from India to England, and we're
ha,ched after their arrival. The greatob
icct seems to be the total exclusion Of air
and the consequent evaporation OF the
fluids of the egg. Packed 10 salt, eggs
sometimes keep we'll, the low temPerature
acting favorable, yet the air is not gener.
ally sufficiently excluded,- the yoik saps
to settle to the sideof the shell, and the egg
of course becomes worthless. Putting
down in water thoroughly saturated with
onick-lime is now generally adopted, and
is found to be the cheapest as well as
surest mode of keeping them uninjured.
We have sometimes seen so much lime
used as TO pack close around the lower
courses of eggs; and from which they
could with difficulty be extricated. This
is not necessary that the water should be
thoroughly inpregnated with the linie. is
all that is required, and TO secure this OBJ

of the vessel may be admissible, nothing
