"In the eastern part Of Delaware county,
in - State, there resided man, a very
sensible man but by common consent the
ugliest looking individual in the whole coun-
try-being long, gaunt and sallow, with a
gait like a kangaroo. One day he was hunt
ing, g,and on one of the mountain road-sides met
a man on foot and alone, who was longer
gaunter, and uglier, by all odds than himself
He could give him fifty and beat him. With
out saying word he raised his gun and level
ed it at the stranger
For Gods sake don't shootl" shouted the
man in alarm.

woman's love.

Until the hour when death
His lamp of life doth dim,
She never wearieth,
She never leaveth him
Still near him night and day,
She meets his eye alway.
And when his trials DER,
And the turf is on his breast,
Deep in her bosom's core
Lie sorrows unexpressed;
Her tears, her sighs, are weak,
Her settled grief to speak.
And though there may arise
Balm for her spirits pain;
And though her quiet eyes
May sometimes smile again;
Still, still she must regret;
She never can forget.

bombshell, in the shape of clandestine mar
riage between Miss Petronilla Boxer, daugh-
ter of wealthy merchant, and her fathers

appearance and gentlemanly address The
father of the lady, Mr. John G. Boxer, has
locked his daughter up, and brought suit to
invaldate the marriage, under the plea that
his daughter was insane; bu. it would not
do, and Dean has sued out writ of habeas

whom he will most certainly obtain Boxer
