FATAL MARRIAGE late English paper
contains the following account OF an extraordi
nary marriage, and its fatal consequences:
A respectable tradesman OF Dawlisl, named
Oliver died some years since, leaving to bis
widow. by will, considerable property; with
,be proyiso. however, that in the event of her
marrying. the whole should revert TO their chill
dren During her widowhood it appears, she De-
came surety to the amount of f400 for a son IN
law. The yoapg man misbehaving himself, the
bond was forfeited, aud the mOther-in-law was
called on to pay the money. To evsde this loss
TO her family, the poor woman adopted course
misguided as it was repugnant to every senti.
ment of morality and decency. a dlssiPateo
youth. about 20 years of age, named Crews,
builders laborer, was induced to marry the
widow who was So years or age, upon the un'
that lie should receive EDO for the
..i,b. . and start off at once for Australia The
;,nnion, ceremony took place at the registry OF.
6ce Newton Abbott, the bridegroom, received
his money. and set off for Plymouth, whence he
vas m have sailed and the bride returned to
Dawlish with her friends.
The Young man, however, soon altered MS
determination, for very few hours Afterwards
saw him once more at Torquay, where, as long
AS the money lasted, he caroused with some
boon companions. His return was very per-
perplexing To all concerned, not the least 50 10
his wife. Her auxieties, however. were soon
terminated. Last Wednesday, while in the act
of seeking for some document connected WIN
her property, she fell down and expired imme.
diately. a coroner's inquest was held, al
which the surgeon stated that her death arose
from natural causes, ''produced by the excite,
.ment and terror she had been subject TO-" and
a verdict was returned accordingly.

A Story with a Moral.

Mr.. Bones, of the firm OF Fossil, Bones & Co.,
was one of those remarkable money making
men whose uninterrupted success in trade had
been the wonder, and afforded the material for
the gossip of the town for seven years. BelIg
of a familiar turn of mind, he was frequently in
terrogated on the subject, aud invariably gave as
the secret of his success, that ne minded his own
business
A gentleman met Mr.. Bones on the Assanpink
bridge He was gazing intently on the dashing
toainlng waters as they fell over the dam. He
was evidently in brown study. Our friend
ventured to disturb his cogitations.
sMr Bones tell me how to make thousand
dollars"
Mr.. Bones contiuFed looking intently at the
water. At last he ventured to reply.
do you see that dam, my frlend~ ~
VI certainly do"
"Wel, here you may learn the secret of max
ing money. That water would waste away and
be of no practical use to anybody but for the
dam. That dam turns it to good account, makes
it perform some useful purpose, and then suffers
it to pass along. That large paper mill is kept
in constant motion by this simple economy
Many mouths are fed in the manufacture OF the
article Of paper, and intelligence ia scattered

through which it passes money is made. 80 ii
is in the living Of hundreds of people. They get
enough of money. Itpasses through their hands
every day, and at the years end they are no
better off. What's the reason2 They want a
dam. Their expenditures are increasing, and no
practical good is attained. They want them
damned up, so that nothing will pass through
their hands without bringing something back
without accomplishing some useful purpose
Dam up your expenses, and you'll soon have
enough occasionally to spare little, just like
that dam. Look at it, my friend l'--1reHton

ELEPHANTS IN lNDIA-THEIR INTELLIGENCE
A Calcutta correspondent of the New York
Commercial Advertiser, ih giving an account OF
a visit to Barrackpore, says:
1--WE saw the recently arrived elephants from
Burmah; they looked in good condition. There
were ninety Of them at the stables, and many
were travelling about through the different streets
and roads. / had short ride upon one Of the
largest, who kneeled down to enable me to
mount him, and some of them made Us a sslaam
when told to do so by their keeper, O.. 'mahout,
as the driver is called They are intelligent an
imals. A story was told me of a number of ell
phants in one of the Mofussi districts. One Of
Them had committed fault in refusing to carry
a Slight additional burden, when told BY the ma
hout that he would get extra grog for it,. He
was tried by court-martial in the presence Of
twenty of his elephantne brethren and convict
ed, and on the keepers reading the sentence, all
raised their trunks in acknowledgment of its
Justice Another was appointed to fog him.
which he did by giving him fifty lashes with
a long chain twined about his trunk, and the
culprt bore it all meekly, well knowing he de-
served it They are SO very cunning as to weigh
their food with their trunks when on march, and
if there is an ounce short they discover it and
insist on the regular allowance. When travel
ing they each have gallon of grog day, just
as sailors and soldiers have their glass. These
animals were at Barrackpore recruiting after the
voyage, and were soon to be sent up country to
do service in England's cause"

INFLUENCE OF SoNe.-Most of as have ex-
perienced the luxury of tear when listening to
an old ballad We know an old man, who lived
q long career of vice and crime, and was at length
banished from his country; and who, while un
dergoing his period of banishment amid the
wilds and jungles of a distant land, heard in the
summer eventide sweet voice, singing in hi
own language the very song which had lulled
him to his infant sumber, when he knew tire
crime by name, and knew it only to abhor. IL
has been sung, too, by the cradle of an infant
sister, one who had died young, and was now in
heaven; the mother, too, was no more.
But the song-the old song had not lost it,
influence over him yet. Back came trooping
upon him the old memories which hac so long
sumbered down there In the unconsurned depths
of his heart: the mother and the father; the
household gathering the old school house; the
time worn church, half hidden by the old yew
trees, where he had heard the Bible read, all
came back upon him as fresh as if it were yes
terday, he gave vent to flood of tears, and
then the old man grew calm, and his latter days
were his best days; and when the term of his
punishment had expired, he came back to his
fathers land, and there in that old village grave
yard, amid whose grassy hillocks he had played
and gamboled, and where the mother and her
litrle ones were sleeping, he laid down his weary
limbs, and sank peacefully away into the com
mon grave-Eliza Cooks Journal.

EQUESTRIAN QuadriIIes at Berlin.

The Berlin correspondent of the London Times
gives the following interesting description of
some equestrian quadrilles performed in the
Prussian capital, in honor of the arrival of the
Princess Royal of England:
The riding house was fitted up, according to
all accounts, with great taste, and lavish expend
iture OF banners, trophies of arms and accoutre-
ments, garlands, wreaths, festoons of flowers,
etc., the intention being TO make it resemble
tiltng ground In the close vicinity of baronial
hall. n
The gallery erected COR the Prince and Prin-
cess, and tue other numerous members of the
royal family, was richly draped as it is descrjb-
ed to me, in white, gold and crimson, and oppo-
site to il and the nobility, at the other end Of
the riding house, was another for the officers
not taking part in the qusdrilie, and the inusi-
clans OF the different regiments. Your readers
can fancy themselves that the shrill and stirring
music of three cavalry regiments, numbers of
banners and flags quantities of evergreens and
flowers, with plentiful supply OF hight from
chandeliers, lustres and lamps, must have pro-
duced an exciting scene, to which must be ad-
ded the presence of royalty and the charm Of
"Engand's eldest daughter" Among the very
few civilians and ladies invited to be present
were Lord and Lady Bloomfield.
| SlXteen 0ilCerS OI the CuarQe Gu COrpS of;eueO
the ball 10 full uniform, with silver eairass and
helmet, Qhe latter bearing the spread eagle
perched On iD and high jack boots after making
the tour of the arena once at q walking pace
and then at galop, they performed the usual
ouadrie with precision and correctness, saith
liy informant, the figure Of the naoutinet being
! particularly successful. Sje
Then followed the Lancers' set of quadrilles,
ridden for the first time perhaps since 1t receiv
ed that name by Lancels, i. e.. by officers OF
that regiment; such OF them as occupied the
posts usually assigned to ladies in these quad
rifles being distinguished by bows OF ribbons in
the English colors bound on the arms, the gen.
temen officers wearing Prussian bows.
The third quadrille was executed by the oti
GERS of the HuAsars of the Guard. Here the red
uniform braided with gold, the Hungarian boots
and close fitting pantaloons, the red antilas
hanging from the shoulder, the jaunty calpacs,
and the plumes of heron feathers waving with
the rapid motion, must have been really bril-
| liant sight. The arrangement OF having every
couple of dancing horses composed of dark and
| of lighter partner, added to the effect.

King Frederick Williams passion for tall sol
ders led him to wish to raise race OF large peo.
pie, so as to be able to recruit regiment with
out trouble One day meeting very tall and
wel-made village girl in the neighborhood OF
Potsdam, lie asked her tn take note, which he
wrote ON the spot, to the the captain of his reg
iment. Either suspecting something or being In
hurry, the girl gave the note to little old
woman whom she fell in with, and charged her
to deliver it as directed. This note contained
an order to have the bearer instantly married
to the tallest man in the regiment, whose name
was specified. On being acquainted with his
fate, and introduced to his bride, the poor young
fellow was in despair. He begged and entreat-
ed, fell on his knees and wept, but to no pur-
pose the Kings will was law, and the matri
monial moose was tied. However, the King,
on hearing of the exchange of brides that had
been made, allowed the marriage to be dissolv
