ton and Mr.. Creeyy
a communication was read from DR.. McKelvey,
quarantine physician on the Mississippi exnlain-
ing that Captain Saunders, reported for having
run ms steamer by the quarantine, in spite Of be-
ing signaed to stop, had given satisfactory expla
nation. IN the tirst place he was suffering from
an infiamed eye and eorld not have seen the sig
mails; and IN the next place, he was merely bring
ing the steamer round from the lake. where she
had been restored to him by the military anthori.
tles, tor the purpose OF having her repaired, and
dld not think OF quarantine question being raised
undef tnose circumstances. She WAS, besides,
LOOKING padIy. Inc explanation was accepted.
Dr. Austin, chairman nsthe committee on haath
made verbal report, He stated that the com
mttee had examined Tile reports Of the health off.
GERS, aud We're satisGedthat those gentlemen were
doing everything they could in the endeavor to
discharge their dnties L With regard tj the clean
sing OF the city, the committee found that the
great difficulty in the way was the iusuffieiency
| andsthe, Inappropriate distribution Of the plugs.
There we're an abnndaRce OF these on such pro
mineat streets as Canal, Magazine mud St. Chatles
| but none at all who're thny we're SO greatly
eeded, ons such streets as ST. Thomas street aud
| other nqt7r0usly dirty and insalHbr1us places.
No water ever reachRd many such streets, be-
cause on account Of The want OF proper grading il
could uot run into ihNn. The committee there
fore recommended ttuLt the board shQuld request
the city authorities to.hNye plugs put where they
are for these reasons raq0ised. They heiieyedi
would be impossible 10 getyrd of tie filth other
wise. DR., Austin saiA that besides having beer

Odd Fellows Hall, amid the ruins of which they
inspected their booty, and Dggs took possession
Of it. Thence they went to arestaurant, where
they took supper, and Diggs opened one or two
ofthe letters. There they separated, Diggs saying
he would take a room that night at the City
Hotel and examine all the letters. Diggs
was about to start on the jackson railroad when
he was arrested on the same day schwartzman
was taken in custody. According to Schwartz
mans statement to Mr.. lizard, he and Diggs were
to meet at Jackson, Miss. Mr.. lizard, on the same
day he arrested schwartzman, procured the arrest
of Diggs, whose baggage was found at the North
Star coffeehouse, on the levee, Nomoneyof con,
sequence was found in the possession of either.
Mr.. lizard, pursuing the track indicated by
Schwartzmans disclosures, found, on inquiry
at the City Hotel, that on the very
evening ngspecified, ~. Diggs" was registered for
room No. g. 1t was also discovered by Mr..
lizard that on the next day " j. Diggs" was regis
tered at the St. Charles hotel as lodger, and the
fact of man in such poor circumstances as Diggs
was supposed to be, both from his situation in
life, and his pledging watch to borrow money,
putting up at the most costly hotels in the city
was deemed by Mr.. lizard presumptive pro of that
he had suddenly come into possession of means,
and not honestly, in view of the expose OF
Schwartzman.
Recorder Ahern having heard the evidence and
arguments of counsel sent the case before the
First District Court for trial.

against the manly breast OF her husband,
stood and wept.
What a strong light broke in upon the
mind of Andrew Lee. He had never
given to his wife even the small reward
of praise for all the loving interest she
had manifested daily, until doubt of his
love had entered her soul, and made the
light around her thick darkness. No
wonder that her face grew clouded, nor
that what he considered moodness and
ill-na,ure took possession of her spirit.
/" You are good and true, Mary, my
own dear wife. am proud of you--l
love you-and my first desire is for your
happiness. O, if I could always see your
face in sunshine my home would be the
dearest on earth"
How precious to me are your words
Of love and praise, Andrew" said Mrs
Lee, smiling up through her tears into hi;
face, with these in my ears, my hear
can never lie in the shadow"
How easy had been the work for An
drew Lee. He had swept his hand across
the cloudy horizon Of his home and now
the bright sunshine was streaming down
and flooding that home with joy ant
beauty.

They Won't Trouble Yon Long.

Children grown up--nothing on earth
grows so fast as children. 1t was but yes
ierday and that lad was playing with tops,
buoyant boy. He is man and gone j
now There is no more childhood for
him or US. Life has claimed him. When
beginning is made, it is like raveling
stocking, stitch by stitch gives way till all
are gone. The house has not a child in
it. There is no more noise in the hall
boys rushing in pell mell-it is very or
derly now. There are no more skates, or
sleds, bats, balls, or strings, left scattered
about. Things are neat enough now.
There is no delay Of breakfast for
sleepy folks there is no longer any task
before You lie down Of tucking up the bed
clothes. There is no disputes to settle,
nobody to get off to school, no complaints,
no importunities for impossible things, no
rips to mend no fingers to tie up, no faces
to be washed or collars 10 be arranged l.
There never was such peace in The house
1t would sound like music to have some
feet cIatter down the front stairsl o for
some clildren's noisel
What used to all us that we were hush
ing their loud laugh, checking their noisy
frolic, and reproving their slamming and
banging doors? We wish our neighbors
would lend us an urchin or two to make
little noise in these premises. A home
without children! II is ike lantern and
no candles garden and no flowers a
vine and no grapes brook and no wa
ter gurgling and rushing in its channels.
We want TO be tried, to be vexed, to be
run over, to hear child life at work with
all its varieties.
During secular days this is enough
marked. But it is Sunday that puts our
homes to the proof. That is the Christian
family day. The family seems made up
on that day. The children are at home.
You can lay your hands on their heads.
They seem to recognize the greater and
lesser love-to God and to friends. Tho
house is peaceful but not still. There is
melodious trill of children in it. But
Sunday comes too still now. There is a
silence that aches in the ear. There is
too much room at the table, too much at
the hearth. The bedrooms are world
too orderly. There is too much leisure
and.too little care.
Alas wha. means these thingss Is
somebody growing old Is life wanting ?

"a Rift in the Cloud"
By T. s. ARTHUR.

Andrew Lee came home at evening
from the shop where he had worked all
day, tired, and out of spirits; came home
to his wife, who was also tired aud out of
spirits.
"a smiling wife and cheerful home
what paradise it would be!'' said An
drew to himself, as he turned his eyes
from the clouded face of Mrs. Lee, and sat
down with knitted brows and moody as
pect.
Not a word was spoken by either
Mrs. Lee was getting supper, and she
moved about with weary step.
"Come," she said at last, with side
glance at her husband.
There was invitation in the word only,
none in the voice of Mrs. Lee.
Andrew arose and w,nt TO the table
He was tempted to speak an angry word
but he controlled himself and kept silent
He could find no fault with the chop, nol
the sweet home made bread nor the fra
grant tea. They would have cheered hi:
inner man, if there had only been CLEAN
of sunshine on the face of his wife. Ht
noticed that she did not cat.
"Are you not well, Mary The word
were on his lips, but he did not uitel
them, for the face of his wife looked Sc
repellant that he feared an Irritating re
ply. And so in moody silence, the twaiI
sat together until Andrew had finished hi
supper.
As he pushed his chair back his wifi
arose and commenced clearing off the ia
bic.
"This is purgatoryl" said Lee to him
self. as he commenced walking the floor o
their little breakfast ON, with his hand
thrust desperately away down in his trou
sers pockets, and his chin almost iouehinI
his breast.
