A Touching Anecdote.

The following anecdote of Rev. Dr. Bent
ly, we'll known among the clergy of olden
time, is given by correspondent of the Sa-
lem Register:
One night, at a late hour, the doctor was
disturbed at his studies by rattling sound
among some wood, which, sawed and split for
his study fire, had been left out by the team
ster, the afternoon previous, too late to be
properly housed. He arose, went to the win
dow, and saw a woman filing her apron with
wood, which she hastily carried away
Shortly after the same noise occurred, and on
looking out a second time he saw a similar
operation, the woman filing her great apron
to the utmost limits of its capacity When
she had gone he returned to his book with a
tender pity in his heart for a destitution
which sought relief in this lonely, dreary
not to say sinful manner. By and by he was
startled by heavy crash of falling wood, and
hurrylng up to the window beheld the poor
woman casting the very dust of wood from
her apron. He remained motionless, his gen.
tie heart filled with commisseration
She swiftly departed and soon returned
heavily laden with wood, which she throw on
the pile as if it were indeed the 'saccursed
thing" The Doctors compassion and GU
rloslty were now intensely excited. He fol-
lowed her rctreating figure till he discovered
her residence, and then ascertained who she
was. What she was, was no mystery to him.
The last hour had shown him her virtues
lofty height. He called early the next morn
ing on Mr.. B., the wood dealer, and directed
him to send half cord of his best wood,
sawed and split, to Mrs. --, but BY no
means to let her know from whom it came,
which was readily promised Mr.. B e team

though out Of Sight, was-not-se--b6u4,Gl.-an ana
when he tipped the wood into the widows
yard, replied to her eager inquiry who had
sent 1t, by relating the conversation he had
overheard
The conscience stricken woman, feeling
that her sin and repentance, in the lonely
darkness of that midnight hour were known,
were understood by another heart besides her
own, hastened without delay to the house
of the benevolent man, to express her
gratitude and her sorrow and with decp
humility and bitterness. told him the temp

How TO DETERMINE WHERE WATER Is.
At recent meeting of tho American
Institute Farmers club, member related
his experience in this matter as follows:
An Irishman in his employment, in order
to ascertain where he ought to dig to obtain
water soonest, got stone and buried it over
night in the ground, next to the hardpan.-
In the morning he found it quite moist, but
not sufficiently so to suit his fancy Next
night he tried it in another spot anc it was
found very wet in the following morning."
"Ihere," said Patrick, lyon viii find water
not many feet deep, and plenty of it,
Sure enough. in few days digging, Patrick
confirmed his prediction; notwithstanding
the jeers of the workmen, finding vein
which filed the we'll to overfowing, and rem
dered it exceeding difficult to bail out the
water so as to stone it. The philosophy Of
the operation seems to be that, as great evapor-
alton takes place from the surface of the earth
during the night, the water rises up from the
depths below to'supply the loss, and accumu-
lates in the vicinity of the ctone, often quite

Married the Wrong Lady.

Love is very uncertain thing, and it is
not very safe to be too certain of the symp-
toms until they are unmistakable. Vienna
has been stirred up lately by the comical re-
suit of a strange love story 1t seems that
in the house ofone Herr Kuhne, teacher
OF languages, DIR. Kant, young physician,
happened to make the acquaintance of
young lady, burdeued with some property
and thirty years of age. The lady being un-
married, evinced some interest in the Young
but rather abashed doctor She made love
to him, in fact, very strongly, and persuaded
him to visit her at her house. But alas he
loved another lady. One evening, while con-
versing with him, she said
"With your favorable idea of matrimonv.
may ask it you ever thought of marrying,
yourself?"
DIR. Kant sighed and his eyes resting on
the ground, hesitatingly mut,ered in reply:
81 have already thought Of marrying, and
made my choice, but
"But?" the lady hastily interposed.
''But," he continued, 1.-THE lady is rich, I
very rich, and | am poor. l am afraid
could hardly aspire to her hand and rather
than allow myself to be taxed with sordid de-
signs, l will bury my passion in my breast,
and leave it unavowed forever"
AT an early hour the following day, how
ever, she betook herself to n solicitor, and in
legal form declared her wish to present and
hand over as his property the sum of 15O, 900
guiders GELS, ,O0O) to DR.. Kant When the
document had been signed, countersigned.
and duly completed, she sat down in the Of
fee, and, inclosing it in an elegant envelope,
added the following note
"DEAR SIR:-l have much pleasure in inclosiug q
paper which hope will remove the obstacle in the
way of your marriage Believe me, &C.,
''ALICE MARTIxI.''
DIR. Kant-for he, and no other, was tho
individual addressod-was the happiest mau
in the world on receiving this generous epis-
tie. Repairing at once to the parents of
Fraulen Fischcl, the lady of his love, he pro.
posed for and received the hand of girl who
had long been fiattered BY his delicate, though
unmoved attentions. Ills reply to Alice
Martini, besides conveying his sincercst
thanks, contained two cGrtes de visite, linked
together by the significant rose. .colored rib
bon. Miss Martini forthwith sued the happy
bridegroom for restitution but as no promise
of marriage had been made, the case was, by
two successive courts, decided against her.

PER1Ls OF CRTNoLINE.-A fine looking
young woman, in more than the usual ampli-
tude of crinoline, entered a theatre lately with
beau, and was making her way through tho
already filled seats to the front row Of tho
dress circle, where places had been reserved
for them. To do so with all the bold freedom
of feminine young America, she stepped upon
the seats, when unfortunately her hoop, or
rather the lower hoop of her skeleton skirt,
caught upon the back of one of the seats as
she went by, and the fastening about the
waist parting, the whole concern came down
"by rum and, as she stepped forward and
out Of it, was left hanging in full view upon the
seat. The change was astonishing; the full
blown belle at one moment-the next looked
like lamp post with silk dress tied around
it. For moment; also, the young lady was
quite unconscious of the accident In another
she saw the full extent of it, and blushing
crimson, sank into her seat, and for the next
half hour had undoubtedly the most brilliant
complexion in the audience. Though NOR
tifying to the young lady, the circumstance
provoked the risibilities Of those who Witness
ed it exceedingly. ~
