DfscHAReED.--F. C. Giddings, Of
Ludlow, who was examined on
charge of numbering his wife, has been
discharged. The case seems to have
been very mysterious one. The re-
porter of the trial for the Herald says
that the death of Mrs. Giddings re-
suited from poison can hardly admit
of a doubt; that it is difficult to
bring the mind to believe that the de-
ceased committed suicide; that there
does not appear to be reasonable
probability that the attending physic-
ian made mistake in the medicine,
and that nineteen-twentieths of the
community in which Mr.. g. resides
are OF the opinion that he is innocent
of the crime with which he has been
charged.

An ANCIENT REVOLVER. In the his
torical collection of Dresden is an OBJ
jet Of great interest--a perfect reyolv-
ing pistol, more than two hundred
years old; no antiquated, hali-made,
rough, rudimentary, affair, but as thor
oughly finished pistol as were the
Toledo and Damascus blades of older
date. 1t is of the same size as a Colts
revolver, and not only were the revoly-
ing barrels of percisely the same struc-
ture, size and shape, but they were six
III number. The only point of infer
rority was that in this, there is no
spring to bring up the next barrel
when one is fired. 1t must be done
with the hand. Col. Colt was shown
the pistol when in Earope, shortly be-
fore his death. His luce was very ex-
p.essiye when he saw his own invention
applied more than two centuries since.
OF course the lock was flint, and vet
being revolving lock, it yas packed
away in very small space, and the
whole aspect of the pistol was as neat
and attractive us any modern revolver.
There is also another tirearm still more
interesting 1t is Whitwolth gun,
perfect III every respect, excepting that
the bore is SQUARE instead OF six sided
Truly there Is nothing new under the

A Mouse In the Pantry.

When 7 used to be out Of temper or
naughty in any way, if grandfather
was there, he would call to me
MARY, Mary, take care there's a
mouse in the pantry"
] often used to cease crying at this.
and stand wondering to myself what
he meant | often ran to the pantry,
too, to see if there really was mouse
in the trap; but | never found one
One day ] said
Grandfather, L don't know what
you mean. l haven't pantry, and
there are no mice in mothers, because
/ have looked every SO often He
smiled and said
Come, little woman sit down here
in the porch by me, and I'll tell you
what | mean. Your heart, Mary. is
the pantry. The little sins are the
mice that get in, and nibble away all
the good, and that makes YOU cross
and peeyish and fretful, unwilling to do
as your mother wishes. and if you do
not strive against Ahem;-ttl.e mice will
keep nibbling, till the good is all eaten
away Now, I want to show you, my
little girl, how to prevent this. To
keep mice out, you must set a trap for
them the trap Of watchfulness, and
have you your bate, good resolutions
and firmness."
But, mother" said Nancy, now
quite interested in the story, SHOULDN'T
they nibble The resolutions away, after
a while 2"
NO, Nancy not if the watch was
kept strictly aud the bait was a good
one. l did not exactly understand it
when grandfather first told me, for |
was such a very little girl; but l knew
it was told for me in some way, and
after while / began to find out what
he meant. He told me, too, that
might store my pantry with good
things, if | watched it well. Do YOU
know what that means, Nancy p

Nancy, whose tears were dried now
yes, to store it with good princi-
ale, good thoughts, and kind feel

A "REMINISCENCES OF NEW ORLEANS.
From the N, Y Sunday Dispatch,
We were in New Orleans n short time
during the rebellion, but after the city
had been captured by our forces. 1t
was in the days when scowling "Se-
cesh" were holding their sweet con-
claves, when dark lantern organiza-
tions of Registered and unregistered
enemies" of our Union were only
kept down by wholesome dread OF
ropes and shackles. But the internal
spirit of treason skulked everywhere.
Hotels, saloons, stores, We're full of
concealed rebels, who would have iid-
died and danced over general mas
sacre OF the Union men. At that time
few American flags waved in New
Orleans, and those only over military
quarters; and it became necessary to
Issue an order for the display Of our
STARS and Stripes over places of pub
lie resort, licensed by the Provost
Marshal. Very reluctantly the order
was complied with, and few "old
flags" waved from some hotels and the
theatres. But so yindictiye and mo-
rose was the "secesh" feeling that the
managers of the theatres felt bound to
cater for it. They refused TO permit
