A Sad Honeymoon.

Charles AIbaugh was recently tried,
convicted and sentenced, in Cleveland,
Ohio, for robbng the mail. The Colum-
bus, Ohio, Gazette says:
Charles AIbaugh is only twenty years
of age, and the events Of the last few
months will fill an importan: chapter in
bis Iife's history. On Christmas day he
eIoped with his landlords daughter, a
Miss German, in her sixteenth year, went
to Alexandria, Pa and was married. An
effort was made 10 keep the affair secet,
but it was discovered by the girls pa
rents, who were highly incensed at their
daughters imprudence.
On the 2Sth Of January, Mr.. Prentiss,
the U. S. mail agent, arrested Albaugh
upon charge of robbing the mail. He
was taken TO Cleveland, tried, convicted
and sentenced before the U. S. Court, and
upon reaching Cardington, on his way TO
the penitentiary, the young wife came
aboard the cars to bid farewell TO her con.
vict husband. The meeting was pain.
fully affecting one. She begged bin TO
keep up his spirits and 10 make firm re-
solve TO do his whole duty while in prls-
on. She vowed to stick to him though
all the rest of the world should lorsake
him "for." said she, "Charley, we are
both young we have years of happiness
in store Tor rs, and when your time has
expired, we can 60 10 some other land
where the odense will not be known,
where we can live happily together and
earn an honest livelihood"
The poor girl nerved herself TO the
task, and as she wiped the tears away
from The cheeks of her young husband she
never whimpereG.
The car was full Of passengers, who
witnessed the scene with fearful emotion.
The conductor who, at the request of the
officers, had kindly delayed few mo-
ments 10 give he young couple an oPpor-
runity of meeting each other, at last nuu-
fed them that he could delay no longer,
and the whistle gave notice that the cars
we're about starting. keep up your
courage like man. Charley" said the
fair heroine, and as she kissed his cheek,
she turned to leave him, but overpowered
by her feelings, that she had thus far kept
under control, she fell lainIing in the arms
Of the bystanders, who carried her gently
into the slarion-house, and the cars rolled
over the rails with increased speed, TO
make up for the detention.

Railroad Accident.

On Saturday night last, nine freigh,
locomotives left MArtinsturg, with the
trains for Baltimore. When near the
Union dam, about two miles above Eli.
colts Mills, me of these trains Stacked its
speed somewhat from some temporary
cause, and The engine following ran into
the rear OF ii before its approach could be
entirely checked. One OF the trains had
some twenty loaded cars. including lot
of twenty -four valuable horses and other
live stock, in charge of four or five dor
vers, who occupied Car provided for
their accommodation, according TO the
rule upon the road. This car was tue
last one in The train. and was the one
struck by the approaching engine. The
conductor, on seeing lhe danger, ran into
the Car, and hurriedly awakening the dro-
vers, warned them to escape by jumping
of. The only persons, however, who
had time 10 get out of the car, was MIR.
George Carr, the owner of the horses,
and one Of his men named Perclval Fam
-ilton, who was the first 10 attempt his
escape.
Before the conductor and the other dro-
ver's could emerge from the car, the en-
CINE came up, and not having been entire
ly checked in It's momentum, forced the
drovers' car with violence upon the next
car, containing barrelled alcohol. Famil-
ton was caught between the corners and
ends of the two cars and instantly killed,
his head being literally crushed off. Mr..
Carr was more fortunate, though also out
side The car, and with the men inside, was
not hurt. though undergoing fright that
long lifetime can hardly ef1ace.

TAKE THE PAPERS.
BY n. P. WILLIS.

Why don't you take the papers
They're the life Of my delight;
Except about election time,
And then read for spite.
Subscribe, you cannot loose cent
Why should you be afraid;
For cash thus paid is money lent
On interest, four fold paid.
Go then and take the papers,
And pay 10 day nor pay delay,
And my word ii is inferred,
You'll live till you are gray.
An old newspaper friend of mine,
While dying with cough,
Desired TO hear the latest news,
While he was dying off.
| took the paper, and | read
Of some new Pills in force
He bought a box-and is he dead
No-hearty as horse.
| knew a printers debtor once,
Racked with scorching fever,
Who swore TO pay her debt next day
If her distress would leave her.
Next morning she was al her work,
Divested of her pain,
But did forget TO pay her debt,
Till taken down again.
"Here, Je, sic, take these silver wheels,
And pay the printer now J.
She slept and slept, and then awoke,
With health upon her brow.
| knew two men as much alike,
As e'er you saw two stumps ;
And no phrenologst could find
A difference In their bumps.
One takes the papers. and his life
Is happier than a kings;
His children all can read and write
And talk OF men and things.
The other took no paper, and
While strolllng through the wood,
A tree fell down and broke his crown,
And killed him, "very gooJ."
Had he been reading Of the news,
At home like neighbor jim,
Ill bet cent that accident
Would not have happened him.
Why don't you take the papers
Nor from The printer sneak,
Because you borrow of his boy
A paper every week.
For he who takes the papers,
And pays his bills when due,
Can live i'll peace with God and man,
And with the printer too.

ment.'
Yet he was patient and enduring re-
marked one of the company.
Patient as Chrislian-enduring as a
martyr was answered. Poor man He
was worthy of better fate. He ought to
have succeeded, for he deserved success.
Did he not succeed questioned the
one who had spoken of his patience and
endurance.
No, sir. He died poor as I have just
said. Nothing that he put his hand to
aver succeeded. Strange fatality seemed
to attend every enterprise.
i was with him in his last moments,
said the other, and | thought he died itch
No. He has left nothing behind, was
replied.
The heirs will have no concern as TO
the administration of his estate.
He left good name, said one, and
that is something.
And legacy of noble deeds that were
done in the name Of humanity, remarked
another.
And precious examples, said third.
Lessons Of patience IN suffering; Of
hope in adversely; OF heavenly confidence,
when no sunbeams fell upon his bewIlder-
ing path, was the testimony of another
And high truths, manly courage, heroic
Gortitude.'
Then he died rich was the emphatic
declaration. Richer than the millionaire
who went To his long home on the same
day miserable pauper in all but gold.
A sad funeral, did yol say! No, my
friend, it was, rather, trlumphaI process
sion ! Not the burial of humane cold.
but the ceremonials attendant on The trans
lation Of an angel Did not succeed {!
Why his whole life was series OF sue

victor, and now The victor's crown is on
his brow. Any grasPing, souIless, sell

braveIy conquer in The battle Of life as
Edmonson has conquered and step forth
from the ranks Of men Christian hero.
No, no; he did not die poor, but rich
ntighborIy love, and rich in celestial al
fections. And bis heirs have an interest
in the admins slrations of his affairs. A
large property has been left, and let Them
see to II that they do not lose precious
things through false estimates and ignO.
rant deprica,ions.
You have new way Of estimating the
wealth Of man, said The one who had
first expressed sympathy for the deccas-
ed.
Is il not the right way was answered.
There are higher things TO gain in this
world, than wealth that perishes. Rich
es of princely value ever reward the true
merchant, who trades for wisdom, buying
it with the silver of truth and the gold OF
love. He dies rich who can take his
treasure with him 10 the new land where
he is to abide forever, and he who has to
leave all behind on which he has placed
affection, dies poor indeed. Our friend
Edmonson died richer than a Girard or
an Aslor; his monument is built of good
deeds and noble examples. 1t will abide
forever"
