A Model Lodge.

In the carly days of the State of indiana the
capital was Corydon; and the anual sessions of
the General Assembly usually had the effect
to bring together as wild set of mad wags as
could he found in the State who had to rely
upon their own resources for amusement; for
there were then but few theatres, concerts, or
shows.
These lovers of mischief had established
mock Mdsoaic Lodge into which they would en-
tice such were Il little green, and take them
through a variety Of ridiculous ceremonies, to
the Infinite amusement Of the wags assembled
On one of tn ese occasions, it being understood
that good natured, athletic young man, about
half simpleton, was to be initiated, the room
was crowded. Judge Grass tit being character
in which be was peculiarly happy had consent
ed to act the role of the devil and to make the
services more impressive had put on q false face
and large paper cap, surmounted with i'm
mense horns, and, with some chains in his hands,
placed himself behind screen.
After taking the candidate through va
riety of ceremonies he was brought to a stand
before the screen, and told that he had then to
confess all the crimes be had committed during
his whole life. The candidate confessed some
trivial offences, and declared that he could re-
collect no more. At this, the Judge came out
from his hiding place, groaned dreadfully, and
shook his chains. Tho frightened candidate
related some other small matters, and declared
that he had disclosed all the crimes he had ever
committed. AT this the groans of the pretended
! devil became tremendous and furious, the
chains ratified, and he shook his horns threat
eningly in the face of the terrified candidate,
who, trembling and suffering with alarm, cried.

Ga5- Let no false delicacy prevent the inxaz
lid from seeking medical relief-the card of DR..
L. J. Czapkay, TO be found in another column,
indicates where to obtain a reliable and COM
petent physician. 1t is seldom that we are called
upon to bear testimony in favor of the skill of
the physician, but sense of duty as well as
justice demands that we should not pass DR..
Czapkay by, without something more than
mere mention. Unlike the greater portion of
those who thrust themselves and their nostrums
before the public, whose practices are empirical.
DR.. Czapkay is gentleman of rare medical and
scientific attain ments, having held the position
of chief surgeon of the liberating army during
the late Hungarian Revolution, and is possessed
of all the requisite experience and skill for the
successful practice of his profession 1t is to the
care ard advice of such physician we would
commend all suffering from the effects of sexual
private disease, feeling assured that in all
such complaints, whether arising from infection,
indiscreton sef-abuse or loss of virility, he can
guarantee, from his extensive practice, speedy
and permanent cure. To those suffering from
the effects of physical and mental debility, we
would say, let common sense take the place of
false modesty, and seek such advice rs will save
you from All untimely grave, and lead you back
again to pristine health, consult DR.. Czapkay,
whom we cheerfully endorse as skillful and
tried physician, capable of coping with and sue
cessfully eradicating those self-inficted mseres,
the evils of empirical practice and all diseases
of a seminal nature. DR.. Czapkay's rooms are

thirst-you drive her forth in the Implying rain

hell. Cothe yourself in the soft raiment that
Christ threw over the erring Mary; 60 to her
desolating house, and gently replace the fallen
fragments of her home-altar; sweeten the fad
ing smile that is slowly changing to the sardonic
grimace of death and despair; let her hear the

rising from the tumultuous waves of ruin, an
Ark of safety lifting its blessed roof from the
hood,-Woman the mariner, Christ the pilot,
Heaven the harbor, Mercy the fayoring wind.

ARE THE PLANETS INHABITED Professor
Mitchell is of the opinion that the planet Mars
must be inhabited, and by race of beings very
similar to mankind. He bases his conclusions
upon tue fact that telescope observation and
its concomitants prove that the physical charac-
teristics, atmospheric phenomena and changes of
seasons of that orb very nearly resemble the
same characteristics, phenomena and changes
Of the earth. If it were possible, he says to
transport an inhabitant Of our world to Mars, he
would breathe as freely as he does here, find
equal facility of locomoton and feel perfectly
at home, as soon as he got over his astonish-
ment.
With regard to the moon, he says he has
brought this orb to within a distance of one HIM
dred and forty miles of his eye, through the in-
strument which he is in the habit of using. lie
" has watched the dawn ef day upon that lunar
orb as it struck the topmost peaks of its lofty
mountains, and their heightened shadows
with such minute distinctness that he has felt
while observing them, as if with ten foot pole
he could strike the orb ITSELF"
He has measured without difficulty the era
ters of the extinct volcanoes in those literal
Mountains of the Moon, and glanced all over
the scared and furrowed face of that desoate
satellite. The Moon, he thinks, cannot be in
habited, but Mars and a few other planets in all
probability are, although it may be very possible
that animal life, both of a brutal and intellect
ual character exists in spheres not adapted to
our kind of animal life, being of different ma
ture altogether, SO that living beings may exist
where 1t would be impossible for man or beast
OF this earth TO live a moment as fnny tribes
are found In boilings springs and streams which
would be instant death to fish in general.

The Courtship and Marriage OF Mr.. and
Mrs. Sic kles.

The recent tragedy in Washington is another
result of those ill-assorted marriages of which
passion and not reasonable affection, is the mo-
tive Washington correspondent of the New
York Times thus tells the melancholy story:
Mrs. Bagioli, the mother of Mrs. Sickles was
born in the year 1919, at Croton Falls, West
chester county. Her maiden name was Cooke.
At the age of fourteen she came with her family
to New York, and was shortly after adopted by
the wel-known Italian poet and author, Lorenzo
da Ponte. She bright and somewhat
beautiful girl, and very shortly aftor her adop-
tion was married to Antonio Bagioli, a composer
and professor of music, who was visitor at Da
Ponies house. Mr.. Bagioli is native of Italy,
but has resided in your city for the last thirty
years, and by those who know him, is said to
Ire much respected and esteemed. Mrs. Bagioli
bore to her husband an only child, the Therese
Bagioli, the unhappy wife of Daniel L. Sickles,
upon whom was layished her parents undivided
love. She was educated at the best school in
New York, and finally sent to the Manhattan
vile Convent of the Sacred Heart. Da Ponte's
son, Lorenzo da Pontc, Jr, resided at this time
with his father, and was Professor of bellies let
Tres, philosophy and literature in one of the New
York colleges.
With him were placed several young men for
education. OF this number were Mr. Eames of
this city, Mr.. Bigelow of the Evening Post, and
Mr.. Sickies The Bagiolis also resided in the
same house, and continued to live there after
the death Of Professor Da Ponte Living in the
same house in which his wife was born Mr.
Sickles saw her grow up from infancy to wo-
manhood. Their association gradually ripened
into love. Her father at once made serious OBJ
jections to the match, not from dislike to Mr.
Sickles, but from the belief that his daughter
was too young for marriage. Parental opposi-
tion only ended in clandestine marriage, which
was performed before Mayor Kingsand, the
Mayor of the city of New York. The conse-
quence Of this secret wedding soon made con-
cealment impossible, and the marriage, after the
full confession required by the Roman Catholic
Church, was solemnized again, and received the
seal of religious ratification from the hands of
DR., Hughes, the Roman Catholic Archbishop, at
his private residence. The fruit of that wedding
was one child 1t is to-day, precisely twelve
months since that father and mother were max
ing preparations for the christening of this
child, for whom the President, Mr.. Buchanan
and the charming Mrs. Senator Slidell, had vol
UNFAIRLY sought the sponsorship. 1t is singu-
lar coincidence that this little girl, Mrs. Sickles
and Mr.. Sckles himself, were all three only
children, over whose miserable fate three living
mothers now hang brokcn-hearted.

Oh the month of May is nigh
Loving, laughing, flowery May
blooming earth and azure sky,
Lover 5 prayer, and answering eve,
Wreathe with joy tie glowing day,
Wrcathe around the laughing May.
Varies April, kind and stern,-
Genial, gentle, true is May
June relentless still doth burn,
From his glare we oft shall turn
10 the season passed away,
Faithful, gentle, genial May.
Tho the year is long and fair,
Sweetest month of all is May;
Sisters twelve that chaplets wear,
But the loveliest chaplet there,
Are the smiles that fondly play,
Round the brow Of loving May.
Life hath childhocd's April hour,
Leading in its youthful May
June is manhood's fiery power,
Clouds Ger ages winter lower
Still earth's holiest memories stav.

A French Marriage.

A correspondent Of the Boston Trdreler in
a racy letter from Paris, relates the following
very Frenchy anecdote:
Amcng the strangers at the Italian Opera
VINO attract most gaZers Nine. Won G. numbers
most opera glasses directed toward her She is
not much more than twenty, and was quite poor,
but she was beautiful, although at Vienna,
where money plays as important part as ia
ParIs, parents could not hope that this would
prove OF much advantage to her, when very unex-
pectedly man of fortune asked her hand in mar
rage The parents were of course delighted at
the offer; they, as most parents, saw only the
mans money bags. The girl, being less ex-
perienccd in the world, looked on him with diff
ferent eyes, and saw that he was old and ugly,
and refused to marry him. Her parents forced
her to receive his attentions, which she did with
great GOODNESS. One day they left them alone
together, that he might formally address her.
She opened the conversation the instant they
were left by themselves, saying
Monsieur, feel that my duty is to anticipate
the demand you about to make me, and to
tell you that will never marry you unless am
forced to do So"
q know that
I" must add, that shall never be able to
! love you"
| Love is not necessary in marriage"
% assure you this marriage detest, hate
loathe, and shall contract it with the bitterest
despair"
81 am much obliged to you for your frank
ness"
DO you persist in marrying me-"
Yes, do"
81 had heard that your delicacy and nobility
OF character was very great, and supposed you
were the last man in the world to take adyan-
tage of girls unprotected position"
The world is full of surped regulations"
Your cold ralery shows l have nothing
to hope from your heart perhaps your head
may be better than your heart, and mark ne, |
do warn you, I'll make the marriage chain as
heavy to you as | shall find it myself; I'll make
all your life unhappy p
I" defy you to execute your threat !"
The poor girl sobbed and wept all night long.
The next day they were married. After the
wedding dinner, NJ. Won G. rose from the table,
went into the yard, and blew out his brains. 1t
was said after his death that he had long been
tired Of life and desired by marriage with a
poor girl to make some atonement for his sui
eide, and to disinherit his relations with whom
he had quarreled. Nine. Won G., his young
widow, has an income of ten thousand dollars a
year.

TN S CELEBRATED GIN-pretending to
u rothing but what it is, viz a pure and IN
adulterated article, and assuming no artificial
merits of what it is not, as some of its rival imi-

and very extensive sales in California has been

in most cases of complaint. Topersons travel
ing in these days of rapid transit from East to
West North to South, who are constantly chang
ing their water as well as their climate; who are
drinking, indeed, dozen kinds of water in ev-
cry twenty-four hours and each draft contain
ing some property acting in chemical antagonsm
to the preceding one, thereby causing an unnat-
ural degree of excitement to the stomach-it is
positively and absolutely necessary to use a
counteracting agent. From the fact that the
"London Club House Gin.
is prepared expressly to meet such exigencies,
and to act as we know it will act as an anti
dote, we confidently prescribe it as the very best
article in the country The name of +" Aromatic
Schedam Schnapps" has never been attached
in any way to this article. In first presenting
the
"LOndOn Club House Gin"
to the public, my aim was to give them pure
and unadulterated article of Gin, and to call it
by its right name. The success attending its
introduction and extensive sale in California is
a sufficient guarantee of the high appreciation
of the article by consumers.
Various parties have from time to time put up
and shipped to California an article which they
call "Club House Gin" Ny Gin, which has
gained such a reputation in California is brand
ed on the cases,
"Old London Club House Gin--Wm.H.D."
The bottles also have a white label with fac
smile of my signature. I caution all parties to
beware of limitations. WM H. DAILY,
