A HAPPY TEMPERAMENT.-The Albany
Knickerbocker looks on the bright side of
LIES diorama 1t has cheering word for
everybody. Here is one of its brevities;
"Life is made up of charges A moment
ago II patch of sunshine rested like smile
upon our paper, and everything around was
bright; now the page is overcast by shadow,
and the streets without looks dull and dark
So in the affairs of life. To day hope sings
at our path, and the bow of promise spans it
as an arch of gold, tomorrow disappointment
sits within the heart, and lowering skies fall
like the tresses of angels around US. There
is nothing steadfast in this lle-no anchor
that is immovably fixed in the sands of Time.
The waves of chance and circumstance are
stronger than all the cables of love, or inter-
est, or hope, and our barks drift forever about
upon them, like lost souls wandering unceas-
ingy upon the banks of Styx. Life is full of
vicissitudes and changes, even as the sea is
full of pearls. Happy is that man who can
adapt himself to all circumstances, for with
him there is neither sunshine nor shadow, but
tempered brightness, that can be compared
only with the rays of twilight when the sound
of bells is on the air, rests upon him con-
tinually." -.1

Messenger says:
awe know of young lady who protracted
her fathers life for several months by rubbing
him daily with Choroform, while his vital
energies were sinking under the disease called
consumption. She was accustomed to manipu-
late him every day with chloroform, until
overcome herself by its fumes, she would sink
down upon the floor, and remain sometimes
for whole hour in that situation. But she
liked it, and she described the effect upon her
as being so delicious, that as soon as she re-
covered from its influence, she longed for the
time to come round when she would be ex.
pected to repeat the operation Her father
died, but the love of chloroform has become
almost passion with the daughter"

A NAPOLEON AND ORLEANS FusIoN.-The
New York Times learns, via Brussels, of a
rumor current in that city, which gives the
Princess Charlotte, of Belgium, aged H.
granddaughter of the late Louis Philippe, as
intended wife to Prince Napoleon, son OF
Jerome, ex-King of Westphalia, and heir pre-
snmptive to the throne of France. This might
60 far to explain the real cause Of King
Leopold's late visit to Louis Napoleon al
Calais and Bouogne, and perhaps, the motive
of the newly sprung up personal cordially
exhibited by letter writing and u visit be-
tween Queen Victoria and Prince Albert
nephew and niece of Leopold, and the present
ruler of France. In the strange and unex.
pected vicisstudes of modern times, such Il
contingency may be on the cards, and could
Louis Napoleon bring about such union, il
would increase the stability of his own throne
and put an end TO all Orleans prospects OF
resuming power in France.

TIE ESCAPE.
THRILLING HISTORICAL sAEhRA4lre


Early m the spring Of 1880, Mr..
Alexander McCennul, OF I.exinston,
Ky, went into the woods n foot to
hunt deer He soon killed . lar.re buck
and returned home for a hoFa~. it. order
to bring it in. During his aosel nee 4
parry of FIVE Indians IN oae of their
skulkiRg exped. tiens, Accidentally st, M
bled on the body Of the deer, and y, r
ceiving that it had been recently killed
they naturally supposed that the hunicr
wquld soon return to secure the flesh
Three of them, therefore, took their
station within close rifle shot ot the
deer, while the other two followed the
trail OF the huuter and way laid the path
by which be was expected to- return.
Mcconnell tbinging not of dangcr,
rode careicssly along the path, which
the scouts were watching, until lie had
come within full view Of the deer. when
he was fired on by the whole party, and
ais horse killed. While laboring to ex-
tricate himself from the dying animal,
be was seized by his enemies, overpow-
efed and borne OF Il prisoner Hi, cap
tors, however, secmed merry, good
natured set of fellows, and permitted
hin. to accompany them unbound and
what was rather extraordinary allowed
him 10 retasn his gun and hunting ac
coutrements. lie accompanied them
with great apparent cheeriuines' through
the day, and displayed his de1terity by
shooting deer for tho use of the compa-
ny. until they began to regard him with
grea, parliality. Having travelled with
h;n in this manner for several days,
they at length reached the barks Of the
OHIO river.
Heretofore the Inc ians had AIKEN the
precaution to bind him at night, although
not very securely, but on that evening
he demonstrated with them on the sub
leet and complained So strongly of the
pain which the cord gave him, that they
merely wrapped the buff 10 tug about
his wrists, and having tied it in an easy
knot and then attached the extreneties
of the rope to their bodies, in order TO
prevent his moving without awakening
them, they very c.'mposedly went to
sleep leaving the prisoner to follow
their example or not, just as he pleased.
Mcdonnell determined to effect his
escape that night if possible, as on the
following morning they would cross the
river, which would render it more diff
cult. He therefore lay quietly until
midnight, anxiousiy ru"iaating on the
means of effecting his escape. Aeeiden-
a.aIly casting bis eyes in the direction OF
h,s feet, they fell upon the glittering
blade of 4 knife, which bad escaped from
its sheath, and was now lyln5 near the
feet Of one Of the indians
