provide himself with letters OF introduction to
respectable parties in this city, and by this
means he soon formed the acquaintance ofa young
lady, Who by the death of her father, had Just

our Young Englishman, one fine day, made the
young lady formal tender of his hand and

lover entreated, but the lady was inexorable.
Just then tho gold fever broke out and our
hero determined without loss of time to try his
fortune on the shores Of the Pacific ocean He
sat down, wrote letter to the lady in which he
announced his determination, assured her of his
unalterable affection, and begged her to be faith

AFFECTING INCIDENTAL letter from India
gives an affecting incident which occurred in the
6epoy massacre. An English officer was standing
In his bungalow, with only his wife with him,
when he was assailed by mutnous regiment he
had rife and two revolvers each with four bar
rels, and had nine charges in all, He beat off
the mutineers as long as he could he shot their
leader with his rife he shot four of them with
his FIRST revolver he killed two more of them
with his second, and then had two charges left.
lie turned round and looked upon his wife and
who can estimate the power of such look on
either side? Mus! she fall into the hands of such
barbarians? They did not fire, because they
wanted her, and would not risk death in shooting
him. He saw it-she saw it. He had two charg-
es left. short agonzng groan-he fired one
into her heart and the other into his and they
both fell dead before the mutncers.

THE FLAG OF TIE CoNouERoR--.4 Relic of he
Pdst.-The American flag which foated at the
masthead of the brig Enterprise, during the ac-
tion with the British brig Boxer. in 1873 off Mon.
hogan, can now be seen at the jewelry store, No.
46 Exchange street. The history of the battle, of
which this is relic is this: On the lst day of
September 1878, the United States brig Enter
prise sailed from Portsmouth, n. H., on a cruise.
On the 9TH day, after chasing the vessel into
Portland she fell in with the British brig Boxer,
of Monhegan and captured her after an action of
forty-dve minntes Early in the action Burrows
fell mortally wounded. Refusing to be carried
below, and remaining on the deck. cheering on
his men, he pointed to the flag of his country,
proudly floating to the breeze, and requested that
it should never be struck and when the sword of
the enemy was presented to the dying conqucror,
he clasped his hands and exclaimed, | die con
tented ? then, and not till then, was he carried
below, where he breatbed his last in a few hours

at the masthead. The old flag, once the winding

A Boheminn's Might.

A few nights since. the inhabitants on the up
per part of street were awakened from their
slumbers by loud and shrill screams from the
voice of female in distress. Her cries of Muir
derr Thieves = and Robbers y quickly alarmed
her neighbors. and soon collected a number of
them around, the night being dark and rain pour
ing down heavily. 1t was some time before the
neighbors could gain an entrance to the house
from whence proceeded these heartrending cries
After making several attempts to gain admission,
and finding it impossible to do so by the door of
the house, they concluded to force an entrance by
the window, which one of the kind neighbors
quickly did and after having gained admission
he found everything dark. Cropping his way
about, and falling over tables and chairs, smash
ing large amounts of crockery and glassware
which happened in his way, at last he discovered
CLEAN of light, and straghtway making for it,
found it nothing but lighted candle which had
fallen from the hands of some person. Naturally
becoming more alarmed every second visions Of
incendiaries, murderers and burglars flashed
through h!s mind, not having any weapon with
him. The heartren6ing cries of the lady still
continuing, he knew not what he should do or
how to act, and in desperation he rushed into n
room, to hear The following remarks uttered by
some invisible person. / want money on the in

tion Kill me quickly, but for Heavens sake do
not kick me to death Another robber in the
room! The invisible then shouts in deep to-
ned voice, Two dollars makes bank = The
lady, in despair, jumps out OF bed and lights

whom she supposed was murderer to be none
other than her truant husband, who had been out

large quantities of the 0 be joyful came home
drunk and not having his wits about him, let the
candle fall from his hand, and in the dark of
course his wife did not recognize him. He being
in beautiful state of alcohotiveness, got into
bed with his wife and kept his boots on, which
naturally alarmed her, and thus caused all The
dstul bance. After this discovery our sympa-
thetic friend concluded he was one too many in
the party, and quick as possible departed from
the ladys chamber The last words he heard
from the loving pair were-'I lost eighty dol

GEN. WASHINGTON on PAPER MoNEY.-On the
subject Of paper money, General Washington
wrote, in the year 1887 as follows:
l contend that it is by the substance, not the
shadow of the thing, that we are to he benefited.
The wisdom of man, in MY humble opinion, cam
not, at this time, devise plan by which the
credit of paper money would be long supported;
consequently depreciation keeps pace with the
quantity OF emission. and articles for which it is
exchanged rise in greater ratio than the sinking
value of the money. Wherein, then. is the far
mer, the planter and artisen, benefited The
debtor may be. because, as have observed. he
gives the shadow in lieu of the substance. and, in
proportion TO his gain the creditor, or body pol
itic suffers. Whether il be u legal tender or not.
it will as has been observed very truly, leave no
aIternative-it must be that or nothing. An evil
equally great is the door it Immediately opens
for speculation, by which the least designing and
perhaps most valuable parts of the community
are preyed upon by the more knowing aud crafty

WE take the following from the Wakulla (Fla.)

A friend informs us Of the following occur

Gently at Attapulgus Ga. A gentleman who had
received considerable sum of money was COM
PEELED to go from home, leaving his wife alone in
the house, situated some distance from any other
dwelling. Towards evening two negroes entered
the house and demanded Of the lady the money,
or they would take her life. Being woman Of
great GOODNESS, she saw at once that it would be
useless for her to attempt to evade the demand.
so she produced the money and gave it to them.
The negroes then remarked that as supper was
nearly ready, they would stay and eat with her.
She told them to be seated until she got it ready
The woman had n vial of strychnine in her cup

to put dose ofthe poison in each Of the negroes

dead. The neighbors were called in. and the ne

RAIN.

Sobbing, wailing, moaning rain,
Beating 'gainst my window pane
Falling tears from mourning sky,
Weeping that the flowers must die
Wailing voice among the trees,
Moaning on the passing breeze,
Like sad, despairing heart,
Doomed from every joy to part:
Falling on a new-made grave,
Where the oceans rolling wave
Murmurs dirges low and deep
To the shipwrecked sailors sleep
Sleep-beneath the eoflin's lid,
Life and love forever hid,
Dreaming on forevermore
Where Che surges beat the shore.
Sobbing, wailing, moaning rain.
Hush thy sad and mournful strain |!
All too clearly is the past,
Summoned by thy hollow blast;
All too promptly at thy call,
Do the heart-wrung tear-drops fall
Hopes bright rays begin to wane-
Cease thy sobbing, moaning rain!

AN EPIrAPH-' Patience Wait sends tie fol-
lowing to the Boston Post:
.Nessrs. Editors-The different papers Of this
city have, for the past fortnight, been inserting
into their valuable columns inscriptions taken
from the old tombsones of cemeteries, both in
this country and Great Britain. Seeing one of
these, brought to my mind one | consider too
good to be kept from public admiration. An old
man, who was noted for his spiritual propens-
ties, was seen one day in state of supreme felici
IN, to go down rocky blum which overhung Long
Island Sound, lose his balance and tumble over
board. His body was not found for a long time
when, one foggy morning. it was seen by fishing
boat. When bis friends had buried him, they
placed the following epitaph on his tombstone:
He was drowned on the Sound,
And his body was not found,
For forty seven days.
When he rose and his toes
And his jolly red nose,
Was seen throu gh the haze!
The epitaph was given to me by person of un-
doubted veracity.
