A ROMANCE OF THE WAR.

We clip the following exciting bit
of romance from the Jacksonville
Correspondence OF the Chicago Re-
publican:
The facts which compose the fol
lowing bit of romance in real life,
recently came to my knowledge, and

with the understanding that no

A well to- do farmer of this county,
had daughter who, besides being
personally attractive. was well educs,

usual amount of good sense. AS s
consequence she had many suitors
All but two of these she treated with
no favor; and between these two il

She liked them both; but which shs

THE INFLUENCE OF NEWS

Occasionally an individual say, to
us, .'tines are hard with me, I must

pense. without thinking Of the actaal
waste OF money for many things
drank, eat, smoked or chewed, which
can do the system no good, but
rather harm.
The newspaper can or should be
regarded IS q benefit to every house,
hold; it imparts ussful information,
it furnishes subjects for thought and
conversation; it adds charm to So
cial intercourse; it makes agreeable
members Of society. To be without
. newspaper one might a. well be
oct Of the world; he becomes per-
feet nobody; when he goes into So
ciety and hears others talks about
current events and discuss questions
of local or general interest," he can
take no part in these things because
he is not posted up, not having read
the papers. And in the family cir
Gle what an influence the newspaper
has-the children read it, and gain
in knowledge; 1t serves to occupy
their leisure hours, to keep them
from frivolous amusements, and
gives them an attraction to home.
Surely then, no wise parent would
consent to go without q newspaper
in his fsmily-and q local county
newspaper too. He may think he
can get along without it, because he
Is out in the world, and can have the
reading Of the paper from his neigh
boris shop or store, or can learn
what is going on from others. But
this is rather & mean way. Men
ought to be Independent. They
ought to read for themselves. If,
however, they think they do notneed
the paper themselves, they may rest
assured that their family does. Con
siderations like these should have
weight and should induce these who
have had thoughts of stopping their
newspapers not to do so, and for
those who have noe taken a paper to

This question was propounded in our

man who had been for several months
unsuccessfuiIy seeking employment
IS clerk or salesman in one of our
leading houses. Complaining OF i'll
luck, one of bis friends who knew
he had mechanical talent, but doubted
whether he could make himselfase-
full either as clerk or salesman, pat
the interrogssory to him which We
have placed as the caption of this
arti lie. The reply was that q trade
was not so respectable as a mercah-
tile occupation Under this delu-
siye idea, our stores are gcrowded
with young men who have no capaei-
ty for business, and who, because Of
the fancied respectsbility of doing
nothing, waste away their minority
upon their salaries which cannot pos
sibly liquidate her expenditures
Late, too late in life, they discover
their error, and before they reach
the age Of thirty, many of them look
with envy upon the thrifty mechanic,
whom in the days of their boyhood,
they were accustomed to 7deride.

WAS the possessor of no little prop

three men together, the rejected lover
cherishing no ill-feeling towards the
husband of his love, or her brother.
tthe battle of Stone river, on the
2d Of January, 1868, the company
they we're in was in the fercest Of
the strife. When that terrible con-
f1ict was over, the husband was found
with his head blown of, and was
only recognized by letter found in
his pocket from his wife. The
brother was missing, and the dis
appointed suitor was wounded so
severely that his life was dispaired
of. She who was now maid and
widow, moCrned with an almost
breaking heart for her husband and
brother. The wounded man recov
cred, but was unfit for further ser
vice; was discharged and came home
His affections was still true and firm,
and the fact of his association with
the loved and lost, gave him a strong
hold upon the sympathies and regard
of her who had received the love of
his life. AS month after month
passed away, the wounds of her
bleeding heart were partially healed,
and stlast she consented to become
the wife ofhim she had refused for
another. She told him however, that
she could never love him as wife
should love her husband, as her
heart was buried in the grave of her
first and only love. 1t was the day
before the wedding, aud the two
were together arranging their plans
for the fut@ Suddenly her father
entered, and Handed her a letter,

soon became separated. Vt was the
brother that had been killed. He,
him self, had been severely wounded;
and taken prisoner. He had written
often, but the letters never reached
