Pretty Women and Politeness.

A talented lady, 'who writes for the
papers, speaks thus of the city railroad
cars
The seats of the car we're all occupied,
crowded, yet the conductor stopped for
me. Not wishing to disturb those who
were seated, was intending to stand,
but gentleman up at the far end rose
and insisted upon my taking his seat.
Being very tired, thanked him and
obeyed. Presently a lady, much young
err, much prettier, and much better dress
eG than myself, entered the car. No less
than four gentlemen arose instantly, Of
fering her seat. She smiled sweeIIy and
unatfectedIy, and thanking the gentle
man, who offered the nearest seat to her,
she seated herself with a peculiar grace
of manner. She had one of those faces
Raphael was always painting. touchingly
sweet and expressive.
A little after this young beauty had
taken her seat, poJr woman, looking
very thin and pale, with that careworn
and hagyard look. that poverty. and sor-
row. and hard labor always give, came in.
She might have been one Of those poor
seamsLresses, who work like slaves and
-Starve for their labor. She was thinly
and meanly clad, and seemed weak and
exhausted. She had evidently no sixpen>
ces to throw away, and came in the car,
not to stand, but to rest while she was help
ed on in her journey. While she was meek
ly standing for the moment, none of the
the gentlemen (?) offering to rise, Ra>
phael's angel, with sweet reProving eyes,
looked on those who had so oficiouSly
offered her a seat, and seeing none of
them attempt to move, and just as l my
self was rising to give this poor old lady a
seat, she rose and insisted upon the wo-
man taking her seat twas allthe work
but Of moment; and the look Of grate~
full surprise the old woman gave her, and
the glance of sweet pity the girl bestow~
ed on the woman as she yielded her seat,
and the evident tconsternation Of the broad
cloth individuals, WHO were manifestly
put to shame, all. were to me irresistibly
interesting and attractive. One of these
same broadcloth wearers. apparently
overpowered with confusion, got up and
left lie car, and RaIphaeI's angel took
his vacant seat. =, f' q

The party then. took their departure,

disappointed in the result. Of their inter
view. f.@' '%'s
The Kaws are located afar off on the
Plains, and though not very ferocious
and sanguinary, are yet exceedingly trou-
bIesome. because of their thieving pro-
pensities. Emigrants to Santa Fe often
suffer loss of animals and other effects
through their depredations they indeed,
claim the right to levy contributions in
compensation for the privilege Of passing
through their country.
This party state that they sold horse
for sixty dollars to enable them to travel
to Washington, but lost the money with
their paper in the river. The presump-
ton therefore is that they begged their
way from Missouri to this city. They
state that their journey occupied ten days.
They are quite conely looking people,
and pretty shrewd. Their boy interpret
er is by no means very sensible, but
somewhat garrulous, and has no doubt
so magnifcd his Office as to attain de-
gree of influence over them.

How WOMEN WILL DECE1vE.-Our
landlords are getting mighty particular
about their tenants, as we'll as their rents.

Of course more need of house than if he

that he cannot have the premises.

SAVING TWO LIVES.

From his bOyhood upwards, Herbert
had always had strongly impressed upon
his mind, when boating up and down che
river, the horrors of the we'll known rock
at the mouth of the river Dart. He knew
how many lives had been lost upon it, how
much property sacrificed on its frightful al
tar and while it is the wonder of every
one who visits Dartmouth that such hid
eous danger can be left unboyed or une
marked, everybody who passes up and
down the Dart hears some fearful legend
of it's past misdeed. and, shuddering, gives
it the widest possible berth. '' -.
While HerbeIt.was straining his utmost
glance, watching for another 6 lean of
lightning to reveal the scene once more,
something like faint cry was heard. y.
By heaven J" cried he, starting to his
feet, s't.that cry is from the rock, and tits
a woman's voice.
Without further thought, except to get
to the scene of danger as quickly as pos
sible, Herbert dashed from his covert.
Needless of the lightning, and regard
less Of the rain, he was speedily wet to
the skin but that was a. trivial matter.
After divers falls and bruises, he con-
trived at last to get down to the shore op-
posite to the point where he knew the rock
was, and going slightly up the river. so
that the wind might convey the cry Of the
sufferers to him, instead of drowning it,
he listened for a moment, and distinctly
heard the cries Of, 'l
Help, help! We are drowning. we
are drowning !'> d.. s.,..-.',. 80 ~

throwing off his, clothes, one after anoth-
er; ''but it is duty to try help me, God
of heaven !'' cried the youth, dropping on
his knee for one. moment then running
down as far above the rock as he thought
was practicable, shouted out, '.,'.. =
4 will swim to ,You.' -
He then plunged boldly into the stream
with nothing on but his shirt and trowsers
having previously tied the latter round hi:
waist with his neckerchief.
Atthe time that Herbert took his leap
the tidewas running strongly up the river
He therefore swan boldly down the stream
as if making for Dartmouth, proceeded
slantingly across,the river towards the opi
posite Shore, where, the beautiful woods b
Greeuaway shaded the boyish steps ol
the immortal Walter Raleigh. !.
In the course of a few minutes he lifted
his voice up. Where are you ?" but hs

PLEASANT SpoRr.-Itis stated that a
noted NJ: D. Of Indiana has recentlycrea-
ted quite a sensation among members Of
the medical profession in that section, by
his success in trapping tape worms! He
has invented gold trap less than an inch
in length, and about quarter of an inch
in diameter. A bait is placed within the
trap, and after the patient has tasted sew
eral days. the apparatus is lowered, by
means of string. down the throat of the
patient. The worm, which is supposed
to be hungry, pushes into the trap to
seize the bait, and is instantly caught by
descending portcullis, and the operator,
feeling bite, pulls on the string and
draws out trsp. worm, aud all. The in
vention of such a trap is no fiction. It
has actually been patented at Washing
ton. Rochester Democrat.

Cuban Revolt.

The approximations fthe Captain Gen
eral Of Cuba with reference to tiilbus-
tering expedition from the United States
to aid the Creoles III throwing of Spanish
allegiance, seems to have been pretty
well founded after all. Nothing but the
timely warning of Secretary Marcy, which
his superior means OF gaining authentic
information enabled him to give TO Gener"
al Concha, prevented the impending rad
of the fiibusers. Ii is said that ten thou
sand men were enrolled for the purpose
and had made arrangements TO be convey
ed TO the Island al moments notice. II
this report be true, the matter will not be
abandoned so readily. Those are deter
mined, reckless characters, they have sci
their affections upon The Queen OF the
Antilles and have her they will, if Eo'
now, hereafter, England and France tc
the contrary Notwithstanding. The Cap
tain General has ordered the ports of the
! Island to be blockaded.

displayed 10y Messrs. Douglas, Of Illinois,
