in a. few minutes afierward, redolent
Of Frangipanni and rose-oi, and re-
peafs the request, she complies with
smiling alacrity. and sings and strums
until YOU would think the piano was
coming literally to pieces.
She goes to church regularly every
Sunday, bearing a prsyer-book bound
in gold and velvet, and while the min
lister is preaching she takes an inven-

Mrs. Jenkins would be ashamed to
come week after week in that old Leg

was as rich as the Misses Atkins papa,
she wouldn't wear those horrid old

and is forced to have recourse to her
smelling bottle when the two poo.

She never thanks any gentleman
who gives up his seat to her in rail-

Adorcs children whenever she can get
up picturesque effect by SO doing,
but is very cross to her little brothers

The modern young lady always
grows delicate by degrees. as the Sara
toga season approaches, and talks
about melancholy dooms and early
deaths. Whereupon papa looks in
credulous-he's been caught more than
once in that trap But he is at length
subducl by skillfully got-up series OF
Mysteries, vapors, sobs, and entresties,
and Miss Arabella goes off to Saratoga,
while the rest Of the family cconomize
pitiiully at home, and an extra wrinkle
grows by degrees on papa's forehead,
down in his dusty little counting room
on Fulton street
Here she meets young gentleman
equally well stocked with sentimen-
tality and Stiffness. She falls in love
with his aistingue graces and hyscin-
thine curls; with his quotations of AL
exander Smith. and his agreeable con-
ycrsation about moonlight, music, and
so forth; and he with her aptitude at
the redowa and the simpcring smiles
with which she listens to his whisper

romantic manner and declares his
everlasting passion.

Todd. who owns ranch mile below Wea-

she walked from Shasta to Weaverville, and,
wniiesa. money, began the business OF wash
ing, for six dollars dozen. An aequaint-
ance, who lived near her domicile, says that
for Icing time she was bending over the
wash tub at daylight IN the morning, at noon
and at ten o'clock at night. Business pros
pered, and after while she bought two
claims, which turned ont well. Then she
bought chickens, which laid eggs, and which
she sold at half dollar apiece; then she
bought pig for 1925, and sold its progeny
for an ounce, Or s25; then she bought cows
and sold milk. Business still increased, and
she began buying real estate, lending money
at ten per cent a month, and specializing in
claims ;xalways was fortunate; every touch

The Archbishop and Bishop OF the Catho
lie Church, who recently assembled in pro-
vincial council in Baltimore, havr issued a
pastoral letter to the clergy and faith of thai
dissemination We make the following ex,
tract:
'.The Peaceful and conservative character
of our principles, which are adapted to every
! form Of government and every state of So
cietv, has been tested, and made manifest in
the great political struggles that have aei-
tated the country on the subject Of domestic
slavery. Although history plainly tes,fes
that the church has .alwsys betriendei the
poor labo,ing classes and etiectuaiIy procured
the mitigation of the evils attached to se,vi.
tude, and through her mild influence it has
passed away from The nations OF Europe. vet
she has never disturbed established order, or
endangered the peace Of society by following
theories of philanthropy.
Faithful to the teachings of,he examples Of
the Apostles, she has always taught servants
to obey their masters, no: serving to the eyes
merely, but as to Christ, and in His name she
commands to treat their servants with hui
mainly and justice, remembering that they
also have a master in heaven. We have
therefore not found it necessary to modify
our teaching with view of adapting it 10
local circumstances. Among Us there has
been no agitation on this occasion. Our
clergy have wisely abstained from all inter
ference with the judgment Of the faithful
which should be free on all questions Of pol
ity and social order, within the limits of the
doctrine and law of Christ. We eXhort yol,
veneral brethren, to pursue this course, 50
becoming the ministers OF Christ and dis
pensers of the mysteries of God. Let the
dead bury their dead. Leave to worlds the
cares and anxietIes of political pattisanship,
the struggles for ascendency, and the mo'lI-
iications of disappointed ambition. DO not,
in any way, identify the interests of our holy
faith with the fortunes of anr party; but
preaching peace and good will TO all man
kind, study on " the truth to delut'ed chill
dren Of error, and to merit the confidence OF
your foeks SO that, becoming all to all, you
may gain all to all to Christ.

YELLOW FEVER AND IT'S TREArMENT---
'Dr. Baker read paper under this caption a
few days ago before the New York Acade-
my of Medicine, from report Of which we
extract the tollowing:
The Doctor said yellow fever in its first
stages could be known bv q flushed face,
great q9ivering Of the nos'.ils and an intense
bliliancy OF the eyes, at the last stages by a
powdered pink on the face, not un. Ike that
produced by painting the coantenance, ar
almost porcelain whiteness of the eyes and
hemonhace of the bowels, followed by black
vomit, stated that his mode Of treatment was
one which would surprise tie faculty by It's
simplicity. lie first gave dose q castor
oil, or sweet oil, with lime juice, thsn gen
tie opiatc, consisting Of Dcver's pIls gtner'
ally, keeping the patient from all exposure,
and not letting him 90 out of his bed ior
several days, as no man was safe, however
well in appearance, till after the seventh day.
The Doctor concluded his paper amid great
applause.
On motion of DR.. Adams, the thanks Of
the Academy were presented TO DR.. Baker.

THE COTTON CROP OF lS5S-In CONVEX
sation last week with gentleman who has
recently travelled over nearly the whole cot
ton growing section of the United States, he
expressed the opinion that, if present pros
poets are verified, the crop will be beyond all
precedent in quantity. The idea Of deficit
of 100000 bales in the Southwest, resulting
from high waters, he considered altogether
delusive, and maintained that he had been
in no county of that section where present
anticipalions did not fix the quantity of cot
ton grown, above what could be gathered.--
The corn crop everywhere was more than
labundant.- Georgia TeleWoph.
