BARBARrsrr RETURNING.

At the execution in Pittsburg, on Fri
day, the Sheriff employed professional
hangman, said to be the notorious Geo.
Alberti, formerly of Philadelphia, and
now resident in Baltimore. The same
man is said to have been the execution
er of Arthur Spring, and of one or two
other victims of the law. When engaged
in the work of his despicable profession,
this monster DISCUSSES himself in a style
that would be absurd, if it were not for
the circumstances of the scene, which
make it absolutely revolving. At Pitts
burg, on Friday, he wore d white shirt
and white pantaloons, the latter held up
by red scarf around his waist. His
face was painted hideous red; long
false red hair fell in matted curls over
his shoulders, while huge black whiskers
covered the lower part Of his face. The
brute that insulted humanity by appear
ing in this horrible dress, behaved with
corresponding heartiess ness on the scat
fold, and in binding the prisoner and re-
moving his fetters, was so rough and vi
olent that the Sheriff was compelled to
take the task out Of his hands His
conduct, up to the time Of the prisoners
death struggles, was equally bruta, / and
it SO shocked the witnesses of the exc
cution that they were disposed to lay
violent hands on him.--I'hjladelphia

SAM SLICK ON LAWYERS.

Few things resemble each other more
in natur' than an old cunnin' lawyer and

rather near sighted with all, comes Stun

"Bleed me!'' says the fly; "excuse

a SINGULAR DEATH

A German in Cincinnati, by the name
OF Ahrentz, recently adopted a singular
method of destroying his own life. He
was highly intelligent and accomplished
unmarried man, and sustained an excel
lent character. The Cincinnati Gazette
says that several times lately he had
been known to speak of self-murder, and
on one occasion discharged, apparently
accidentally, loaded pistol, which mar
rowly missed woundine him severely
1t is thought that he then intended to
shoot himself. Subsequently, however,
he matured plan for dying in more
melo-dramatic manner. He was drink
ing wine at refreshment table with a
friend, to whom he good humoredly de-
clared that he, his friend, who had been
an Austrian officer, could not smell gun
powder, and stand up to the pistols
mouth, if loaded with only blank cartridge
while he, a Prussian, could A wager
was laid, and the two, stepping into an
adjoining room, 'Ahrentz unlocked desk
and took out two cavalry pistols, stating
that they were merely loaded with blank
cartridges. He bade his friend to hold
a handkerchief in front of his face, that
they might not sec each others eyes, and
then told him to fire first. His friend
pulled the trigger, and Ahrentz fell life
less to the floor. A bullet had passed
through his head.

RUSSIAN INrR1GuEs IN CANADA.

We regarded the telegraph announce
ment received day Or two ago of ru-
mored Russian invasion of Canada as a
harmless hoax, intended merely to give
the Canadians an opportunity of express.
ing their loyalty to the Home Govern
ment, and their readiness to annihilate all
the Russians whom the Gar could con-
v,enlently spare from quarters nearer at
home where his enemies are likely to
give him full employment. The Cana
dlans, however, do not look upon the
matter either as hoax, or as i'm possible,
or even improbable The Quebec Mer-
curry states that an order has been re-
ceived in that city from the British Gov
ernment, directing the seizure of letters
sent to foreign parts, if suspected Of be-
ing meant for Russia A few DAYS after
wards, it adds, letter for the Emperor
OF Russia was Intercepted in the post
office, and the contents of that letter re-
vealed the existence of plan on the part
OF Russia for invading Canada.
Another account, on what authority
made we are unable to state, says that
the source from which sprung all this cx-
citement, and which seems to have
caused so much fear and trembling among
the Canadian population, was ruse on
the part Of quack docter to advertise
his nostrums. He became aware that
the British government had ordered the
seizure of all letters suspected of being
intended for Russia, and he accordingly
wrote letter to the Car, which con
tanned the programme of operations, as
given In the articles from the papers s.
Of course the letter was seized, read, and
Its author, just as he intended, promptly
arrested. He was taken before the Que
bee authorities for examination, and on
being searched, letter, purporting to
have come from the Emperor of-Russia,
was found in his possession. Some time
elasped before it could be properly trans.
lated, but when the task was accom-
plished, it was found to be simply an or.
der for large quantity of the proprie-
tors quack medicines, to be sent to the
Emperor immediately ly-Baltimore Amer.

HALAEAT,

This place, of which so much has been
said lately, is town of 1000 houses. 1t
is surrounded with walls, has quaran-
tine, a town hall, custom-house, three
churches, and cavalry barracks. It is
the chief place Of a ub-administrator's
district. The redoubts raised by the
Turks are of great extent and very strong.
They are partially raised on two high
hills on the plain of Kalafat, about
mile distant from each other, and have a
numerous artillery. All the neighbor-
ing country is commanded by these hills
in such way that no approach to the
Danube can be made. In 1928 these
hills were occupied and fortified by the
Russians. Between Widden and Kala.
fat the Danube is little less than mile
wide, and the course of it is very rapid
The island in which the Turks are forti-
fed is situated near the left bank; it is
partly covered with ood, and is defend.
ed by strong entrcnchments in earth,
bearing large artillery. Above Widden
the Turks have constructed new eta
del, according to all the rules of art

DON'T CARE.

The only spirit which will enable one
to get along in this world, whether man
or woman, is that of don't care. Live
irreproachable as you will, practice ev-
cry virtue, be prudent almost to ascetism,
love your neighbors if they'll let you
and be good and charitable, still curious
tongues will clatter, people will make
something TO talk about, so if you
want the least peace of mind, just don't
care.
1t is very hard to find the warm friend
practising deception, peculiarly trying
to have your best motives suspected, but
the moment these things come home to
you, make up your mind to brave it with
"don't care" Suppose you sit down
in the chimney corner to fret and worry
and get up little comfortable misery,
will it change the heart of the dcceiver :
or tie the slanderous tongue
BE sure yon are right do your whole
duty, as you know it, and then if decep-
ton or calumny assail-hold your head
higher, walk with e frmer step, and greet
all your trials with a universal "don't
care"
That's about the only way to get along
comfortably, and keep all important bless
lngs IN state of preservation-yclept
health and spirits. .--Ohce Branch.
