We find the following exquisite sketch in the

the head of "Original." We have a right to
guess at the authorship, and we therefore guess
that Mrs. Estele Mcdonald, wife ofthe talented
editor of the journal, is the authoress. She is
an actress-a brilliant actress--and there are
passages" in her professional history, with
which we are acquainted, that coincide with
those delneated below. Assuming that Mrs
Mcdonald is the writer, VIC have only to say
that she wields the pen with the same graceful

LET HM BE HoN0RED.-A daring youth Of
this city, on yesterday, rescued an unfortunate
female In the most heroic manner from wa
tery grave. A Mexican woman was sitting on
the bank Of the Yuba river, near the old station
house, and being little "how come you so,"
suddenly fell backwards into the turbid stream.
The youth in question no sooner saw the catas-
trophe than he rushed down the bank, utterly
regardless of his own safety, and reaching over
as far as he could without getting his feet wet,
seized the woman by the petticoats and under
took to drag her forth feet foremost. She was
. little too heavy, and pulled him in after her.
Both were then in q very precarious situation
The heroic youth, however hung to his precious
charge. In the meantime, a Chinaman near by,
after much persuasion, as he happened to enter
tain hatred for the fair damsel, reluctantly
went down to the scene of dire dismay, and
seizing the noble youth by the coat tail, pulled
him backward. As he emerged from the water,
he drew the nearly drowned female with him,
and thus was the virtue Of true daring reward
ed We have not learned the name of this
Youthful hero, but, il his friends will furnish
us with 1t, we will take pleasure In giving him
such prominence as this sublime piece Of hero
ism deserves. -Afarysrille Democrat.

PRINCE ALFRED.-An American editor lately
visited the ruins of Carthage, and in q letter to

While I was examining these vast relics OF

arrival Of young Prince Alfred of England,
and a lot of rollicking lieutenants and midship.
men, whose ship was lying at anchor in the
Bay of Tunis Travel is great leveler, and l
sublimely condescended to treat this beardess
sprig of royalty with just as much respect as if
he hadn't been mere second son OF Queen,
or an honorary member of the John Browns
Tract Fishing Association. As happened to
know good deal more about the ruins of Car
thage than either his Royal Highness or any of
his companions, / played the part of cicerone
to the party. AS may not have occasion to
refer to him or his again, | may state that he
is quite pretty boy, small and frail for his
age, which is fifteen, and apparently modest
and intelligent. He had lots of questions to
ask about America, and said he would like
hugely to visit 1t. Whereupon appointed
myself q committee of one on "Reception of
Distinguished Strangers" and pledged him q
salute of 80 guns from the gallant forty-fifth,
besides an enrolment in the Walton Fishing
club, should he visit US. / am told by one of
his brother officers that he is really popular
among his shipmates, and is not particularly
disposed to take advantage Of his station. The
other day he called one of the mates ian old
fool, !" for which piece of impudence he got a
box on the ear that sent him a reeling and
biubbering to his cabin. He complained 10
his servant (who is Major of high standing
in the army,) but no notice was taken of the
matter.

John G. Saxe's Three Travellers.
SAKE, in letter to the Boston Post, draw
these portraits of three familiar travellers:
LIST. the man who travels with his wife I'd
the man who travels with bis wife's sister; Sd
the man who travels with another mans wife
The first case is extremely common, and mo-
particularly interesting. The man is taciturr
and sleeps, apparently, as much as he can the
woman has slightly subdued expression oi
face, and looks good deal at the scenery
along the road, of which she says, for the most
part-nothing. When she does speak, as some
times happens at the sight of something very-
remarkable, she says "See, John, that is ali.
The man looks carefully after the baggage, and
assures bis spouse, in reply to question, that
otis oil right" The woman takes care of the
small traps" and seems comfortable and con-
tented. Altogether they behave quite ration
ally, and, in spite of their seeming unsociabili-
ty, are really very fond of each other. and will
make pleasant trip of it-not only to the end
OF their railroad tour, but to the termination
OF the matrimonial journey.
The man who travels with his wife's sister
carries himself, perhaps, in the main, like the
man who travels with his wife. But be is much
more talkative, and takes more pains to be
agreeable. he feels that more is expected of
him and as 1t goes in commercial affairs, the
supply is equal to the demand. pleasant
thing is wife's sister unless, indeed, she is
quite the reverse-and that is not the sort of a
woman am talking Of She takes the wife's
place in the house sometimes, and may chance
to make an excellent step mother. Why not
for is she not already the aunt of her nieces
and nephews? This sort of marriage however
is, I believe, anti-Levitical, and some of the
theologians don't approve ofit-which is a
pity.
The man who travels with another mans
wife is ofa much more marked behaviour
How attentive he is to all the real and possible
wants of the ladyi He respects her whims
even, which, you may be sure, her husband
does not at home or abroad-how carefully he
hands her in and out! How sednlously he
plies her ear wita discourse. And yet he i'm
agines people take him for the lady's spouse
No, my dear sir the brakeman in the corner
knows better than that Husbands NAV be
uxorious, but kindness such as yours is more
like that of cavalier serpante-which, after all
dare say you are not. It's tiresome, though,
after while. unless the lady is remarkably at
tractive, and pays her own fare, (Which she
sometimes forgets,) and, for o journey of a
thousand miles, your own wife is much the
more agreeable companion.
