In A HuRRy.-A curious marriage
is reported to have occurred some days
since near Bay City, Michigan. 1t
seems that farmer lost his wife by
death, and the said wife died early in
the morning. The farmer did not ap-
preciate being left alone in the world,
and ere his wife's eyes had hardly
closed in the sleep that knows no wax
ing, he decided to marry again. Hitch
ing up his team, he takes in his servant
girl and goes to Bay City to buy gar
ments for the dead. While there he
married the girl and returned to his
home the same night with his second
wife, so that by actual count he was
not a widower twelve hours. The new
wife appeared at the funeral the next
day in deep black, and was one of the
principal mourners over the body Of the
FIRST wife.

feet of Ross, Charles Duane drew a
self cooking Dean & Adams revolver

into the street, when Duane fired three
more shots, one striking Ross in the

ing directly through to the left side,
lodging under the skin, and another

Spare Moments.

A lean, awkward boy came one morn
ing to the door Of the principal of Gel
ebrated school and asked to see him.
The servant eyed his mean clothes, and
thinking be looked more like beggar
than anything else, told him to 60
around to the kitchen. The boy did as
he was hidden, and appeared at the
back door.
"You want breakfast, more like"
said the servant girl, "and l can give
you that without troubling him."
"Thank you," said the boy, 81
should like to see Mr.. -, if he can
see me.''
"Some old clothes maybe you want"
remarked the servant, again eyeing
the boys patched clothes. 81 guess he
has none to spare he's gave away a
sight," and without minding the boys
request, she went away about her work.
''Can see Mr.. -?'' again asked
the boy, after finishing his bread and
butter.
"Well, he is in the library: if he
must be disturbed, he must ; but he
does like to be alone sometimes said
the girl in peevish tone. She seemed
to think it very foolish to admit such
an ill-looking fellow into her masters
presence however she wired her hands
and bade him follow. Opening the Ii
brary door, she said:
"Here's somebody, sir, who is dread
full anxious to see you, and so let him
in"
don't know how the boy introduced
himself, or how he opened business, but
1 know that after talking awhile, the
principal put aside the volume he was
studying, and took up some Greek books
and began to examine the new conner.
The examination lasted some time.
Every question which the principal
asked the boy, was answered readily.
'Upon my word," exclaimed the
principal, ''you certainly do well,"
looking at the boy from head to foot,
over his spectacles.-"Why, my boy !;
where did you pick up so much 2"
SIN my spare moments" answered
the boy.
Here he was, poor, hard working,
with but few opportunities for schooling
yet almost fitted for college, by simply
improving his spare moments. Truly
are not spare moments the ''gold dust
of time :" How precious they should
be? What account can you show?
Look and see. This boy can tell you
how very much can be laid by improv-
ing them and there are many, many
other boys, l am afraid, in Jail, in the
house of correction, in the forecastle of
whaleship, in the tippling shop, who,
if you should ask them when they be-
gan their sinful courses, might answer,
in my spare moments"
'ln my spare moments | grabbed

began to smoke and drink. 1t was in
my spare moments that gathered wick

Oh, be careful how you spend your
spare moments Temptation always
hunts you out in seasons like these,
when you are not busy he gets into
your hearts if he possibly can, in just
such gaps. There he hides himself,
planning all sorts of mischief. Take

DEATH OF A Lovely LADY.-We are
panied to record the death, in this city,
by yellow fever, last evening, of Mrs
Grover, q most estimable lady, wife of our
young friend, Hiram ]. Grover, ESQ
daughter of Samuel N. Semmes, of Cum
berland, Maryland, and q niece Of Admir-.
al Semmes. 1t il seldom we are called
on to notice . death under such painful
circumstances. She wss bnt in til. hey
day Of welded life ; her noble husband
had Just established himself successfully
in the practice Of law, and provided q
comfortable home for himself and his de-
voted young wife, when death thus sadly
intervenes to snap asunder the ties OF
earthly happiness and to impose on him
the mournfuI mission Of transporting to
her parents the empty casketct If her
lobe soul, and the nurturing Of an in
FAINT boy, born but a few brief months
ago. A painful Circumstance, too con-
lected with it all, is, that a young sister,
already on the way from Maryland to
pay her q bridal visit, will find her sister
but a corpse. Death, always sad, is Pc
cularly lamentable under such circum-
stances.-Bee 10 inst.
