MADAME ArevsrA was received with uproarioss
applause in the Bayadere on Wednesday evening at
the Park. Since her journey down the Mississippi,
she has increased her physical power, probably from
the fine bracing air Of "old Kentuek." She leaps
higher than ever, without losing an atom Of beauty
and grace. The house was very goec-all the "ch.
valry" Of Wall street being present Al the close
she was called out and made most exguisitely
graccfu eurtsey to the audience. Augusta 10 beau
tful woman, and her limbs are the most superb in

Loeoroeo Communicable give the following
complaint serbafin ct iteratim:-
FHIEsD BssSETT,-How much cold wttels is there
allowed you for publishing the Great Wig meeting
al Masonic hall-Oh.
Its awful that times have become so hard that you
cant find matter enough to ill Hp ysur columns but
with such trash dc1
IL yos want to get wing subscribers yea will get
plenty Of them-but look out TIMOTHY
p. $. wish you would give me an answer for
am little inquisItive.
AsswkR.-Certainly, Timothy although your
grammar and spelling have some holes but probably
they are only meant TO match your breechee. Well,
then, received for the publication Of this trash less
than elo0 and if Timothy and the locofocos want to
publish any Of their "irash" I'll do il cheaper, and
wha, is more I'll not refuse Kitchen shinplssters-
trash for trash 10 but fair. The wings find the Herald
very convenient vehicle to give publicity to their
opinions. II they gain the election, it will be hall
owing to their advertising in the Herald. SO limo
thy will see that am Hooking out"

BY this table il is seen that the importations from
England into France were less in 1886 than they
in 1881; while the expectation from France to
England is nearly double. The object of the French
in augmenting their tariff to bring about reduction
in the duty on Brandy in England. The average price
Of gallon of brandy is two shillings and sixpcnce
sterling; the duty on it is twenty-five shllngs and
sixpeace, or nine hundred per cent.
BANKING IN FRANcE.-The Bank of Bordeaux
seems ne in thriving condition, and to be manag-
ed with skill almost equal to Mr.. Delafeld's ad.
mnistration of the Phenix Bank here. The half
years dividend at the end Of 1887 was 45f 50c per
share; being 25f for interest, at the rate of per
cents and 20f Soc for share of the profits being "a
per cent per annum, en- each share. The Bank pub
fishes Of its operations, which is singu-
lar, asst shows extraordinary and sudden diminu-
ton Of the discounts on paper payable in Paris.

EpveATIoS IN PRAscB.-There are AZ, 20l primal
elementary schools in France, attended by l,35s964
boys and 943, GIG girls. The expenses of their man
agement for 1888 are estimated at $4,000 900 francs

u Copenhagen journal mentions a new way,
used in the War Offices Of that capital Of warm
ing rooms and public Offices, by placing AZ pound
cannon balls made red hot in iron boxes of fine sand
which are put under the seats of stools chairs, &c.
The warmth thus communicated 10 the sand will
keep up in the apartment heat Of 60 degrees Fahren-
het for nine hours the windows and fire-places being
carefully stopped.

REVIVAL OF BusISEss.-The Board of Trade un-
charsring the Banks and directing the legislature
and the wing committee regulating the press. Great
times and long ears somewhere.

PRINTED AND PUBLISHED BY H. WEBB.
G, COLUMBIA COUNTY, SATURDAY, AUGUST rs, 1885,

AS the evening breeze rushed through
the broken windows, the little one raised
hel head, from which the bandage had fall
len, and said-"Mother. what present has
my father brought to me!'' The sweet
voice awakened both the parents. All
lived, and nothing was destroyed but Adal-
bero's sword, which was melted by the
avenging flash of Heaven.
"Fhe Gods have spoken" cried the par.
doned father; and with gush 70 unuttera-
BILE love the three delivered ones wept in
each others arms.

THE LAST THEFT

The most impudent and perfect achieve.
ment in the art Of tbieving that we have
lately heard of was related to US a few days
since as follows:
AT laborer's boarding house, where it is
customary in the warm weather for the men
to leave their coats IN the entry while al
meals, thief took it into his head to make
an excurtion one day while all hands were
busy at dinner. Accordingly, he recon-
noitered the passage way, saw good varie-
ty OF coats and jackets, some new, some
halt worn, &c. &c. all of which he gather
ed into his arms, and carelessly commenced
making his exit. Just as he was about to
cross the Threshold, the man of the house
who was late to dinner, arrived at the
door.
'What are you doing with these coats p
said the landlord.
'Im taking 'em to my shop, sir.
'And what for!'
'The gentlemen wants to get 'em secured,
sir replied the thief.
U! then, if that's all" said the landlord {;
4 believe my coat wants securing, and you
may take it along too.
So saying, he dofed his garment, handed
it over to the thief, and proceeded to his din
ner. The surprise fthe boarders wien they
went 10 don their habliments, and the con-
fusion ofthe landlord in giving his state
ment, may well be imagined.

5MTSCELLAN NEOUS.
THE VOW: A NORTHERN TALE.

In the ancient heather times of the
Saxons, there was once great war with
the Danes. Adalbero, Duke of Saxony,
who had counselled it, now, in the hour of
earnest conflict, stood at the head of his
people. There flew the arrows and the
iavelins; there glanced many valiant blades
ON both sides; and there shone many bright
gold shields through the dark fight. But
the Saxons, at every attack, were repulsed,
and were already so far driven back, that
storming of steep height could only deliv-
er the army and the country, disperse the
enemy, and change ruinous and destruc-
tive flight into decisive victory.
Adalbero conducted the attack. But in
vain he forced his fiery charger before the
squadron; in vain he shouted through the
fields, "Freedom and Fatherland!'' in vain
streamed his warm blood and the blood of
the foe, over his Respondent armor. The
ponderous mass gave way; and the enemy,
secure on the height iejoiced in their deci-
ded victory. Again rushed on with few
gallant warriors; again The fainthearted
fell behind; and again the enemy rejoiced.
"It is yet time," said Adalbero; and a.
gain he shouted, ''Forward! and if we con-
quer, vow to the gods, TO set Gre to the
four corners of my castle, and it shall blaze
forth on bright funeral pile, in honor of
our victory and deliverence."
Again was the attack renewed, but again
the Saxons fed-and the enemy sent forth
shouts of joy.
Then cited Adabero aloud before the
whole army. "If we return victorious
from this charge ye gods, devote myself
to you as solemn sacrificed Shuddering
the warriors fastened after him, but fortune
was still against them; the boldest fell--the
the bravest fled. Then Adalbero, in deep
aflliction, rallied the scattered band, and all
that remained of the great mobiles collected
round him and spoke thus:-
"Thou art our ruin, for thou hast counsel
led this war;"
Adalbero replied. "My castle and my
self have devoted to the gods for victory,
and what can more?"
The sad multitude only called the more
10 him: Thou art our ruin; for thou hast
counselled this war;
Then Adalbero tore open his bosom, and
implored the Mighty God of Thunder to
pierce it with thunder-bolt, or to give the
victory to his army. But there came no
bolt from Heaven, and the squadron stood
timid and followed not
In boundless despair, Adalbero at last
said, There remains only that which in

My beautiful, blooming wife--my only
heart-loved child,-they belong to the Great
Ruler in Asgard; with my own hand will |

Scarcely were these words uttered, when
fearful thunderings rolled over the field of
battle, and clouds gathered round the COM
batans; and the Saxons, with fearful cries,
shouted as with one voice, "The gods are
with us!'' With invincible courage forward

The Sa5bath.--Accustome as we are
to view the Sabbath as a religious institution
we forget to reflect on importance in NOR
al and civil point of view. Sure in this re-
spect is not of that great interest to man
which the welfare of immortal spirit re-
quires, but independent of its religious infu-
ence there is perhaps no one thing which
contributes more to elevate tile character of
man, TO eradicate the ruthlessness of his
savage nature, to make him moral, social
and upright being, and to establish The great
principles of civil liberty, than the institu-
ton of the Sabbath. At one and the same
time, all nature as it were, is hushed to re-
pose ; man ceases from his accustomed av-
ocation and retires to scenes more congenial
to thought and refection-and the beasts of
the field released from their labors enjoy the
like repose. After six days labor, stirred
seeks for "restorer - and after a |
day of rest, men seek their several employ
ments, with renovated vigor of both body
and mind. Suppose there was no Sabbath
no weekly assemblings of the people, man
would plod on his course of time in one dull
round of lorgetfulness as nature left him at
his birth, so at his death she will find him,
The child of ignorance unused to the social
pleasures of life and unaccustomed to the
duties which civilization impose, his life
would but be the Ancorite's dream-his
