priced very highly, and bring DESTROYS to re-
cover it, if possible, she advertised for it in
our paper. Her advertisement appeared
but few times, when, on going to her bu-
reau drawer, she there saw the missing
breast pin, looking as natural as ever. We
always thought there was efficacy in adver
tislng, but this instance is conclusive.

CHANGING BRlDEs.-We (Downshire Pro-
testant) have heard rather amusing story Of
n circumstance which occurred no later than
| uesday, which we recouHt for the benefit of
our readers. There was TO be wedding
that day. The bridegroom was eager and
the priest ready. Strange to say, at the
eleventh hour the fair bride declared that
married she would not be, and that she would
half kill her intended if he attempted to go
near her. Here was Il pretty state Of things!
A way, however, soon presented itself to get
out OF the difficulty. In the corner of the
room sat the brides sister. Plying The poor
man, "Will you have me!" she asked
Startling that! Nevertheless, the man com.
ing TO be married, priest and all, would
be married; the matter was soon settled; he
answered, "Yes;" aud so this little bit of ro-
nance is ended, and the story is no less
strange than true.

SIMPLICITY OF DREss.-Prentice, of the
Louisville Journal, speaks thus to his readers;
"Those who think that, in order to dress
well, il is necessary to dress extruvagantly
and gaudily, make great mistake.
Nothing SO well becomes true feminine
beauty us simplicity. We have seen many n
remarkable fine person robbed of its fine eff
feet by being over-dressed. Nothing is more
unbecoming than overloaded beauty. The
simplicity OF the classic taste is seen in the
old statues and pictures, painted by men of
very superior artistic genihs. In Athens the
ladies were not gaudily but simply arrayed,
and we doubt whether any ladies' excited
more admiration.--So also the noble old
Roman matrons, whose superb forms were
worthy Of them, were always plainly dressed.
Fashion often presents the lines OF butter
flies, but fashion is not a classic goddess.

lowing:
Intelligence reached here yesterday noon by the
mate of the Schr. Alwide, who came passenger on
the propeller c. Mears that the Canadian stern wheel
steamer Reindeer was wrecked eight miles north of
Big Point Sauble, during the gale of Monday night
and only two remen out of her of twenty three
men, were saved. The Reindeer was laden with talow
from this city, and wheat from St. Joseph for Mon
treal shipped by Mr. La Due Of this city. She is re-
ported to have made well down the Lake, when she
encountered the Storm and put back either with the
intention of making some port or not being able to
head the gale the washed over her. extinguishing
the fire, and the sail made was Immediately carried
away, carrying the mast overheard In her then
helpless condition. about O'Clock Monday night she
struck heavily on a bold, rocky shore, and went to
pieces in few minutes. The first boat lowered was
carried away empty, and the second filed and sank.
The two men that were saved, washed ashore in
senseless condition, and the weather being very
stormy and cold, their feet were badly frozen ; but
they made their way for eight miles this side, where
lay the wrecked schooner Alwilde. The Reindeer
was commanded by Capt. Patterson and owned by
! Henderson Holcomb, of Montreal, where she is
probably insured. She was old, and valued only at
$4,000. Her cargo of taow, ETC., is strewn along
the Michigan shore for miles. A portion may pos
sibly be saved. s, y3 ,S# ~ 4.
The Reindeer was formerly called the Commerce
She was run into and sunk in Lake Erie some eight
years ago when transporting some companies OF
British troops A great manyv were lost in that

Many isolated incidents connected with this whole
sale butehery of very affecting description have
come to light: Here is one: After the British had
been shut up in their entrenchment an English lady
arrived with her children-fugitives from some neigh
boring station Her husband had been murdered on the
road. The poor helpless widow implored Neua sahib
for life but he ordered them to oestaken ont on the
plain and killed! On the way the children COM
planned of the sun, and the mother requested that
they might be, taken under some trees. But even
that request was denied her. Brought like so many
felons to the open plain, the mother and children
were tied together and deliberately shot, with the
ception of the youngest. who was seen crawling over
the dead bodies and feeling them and asking why
they had fallen down and gone to sleep in the SUM-
At last cruel trooper came and dashed out the brains
of the little one!
