A similar case occurred in this city last
evening. A young girl was sitting in the
drawing-room of an up town residence when
she heard a noise in the upper part Of the
house. She proceeded 10 ascertain the
cause, and found a burglar in one Of the
rooms up stairs. With great presence Of
mind she closed the door quickly and locked
him IN. No ore was IN the house but her
self Her parents came home at nightfan,
aud, when informed what kind OF a visitor
was up stairs, they armed themselves with
a couple of croquet mallets and assembled to
the apartment. The door was opended, the
thief appeared, and the gentlemen and his
wife commenced the attack aud soon
knocked him senseless. The husband then
Kicked him down stairs aud threw him on
the sidewalk, where during the night he
bled to death.

From the Paris Kentuckian.
TWICE MARRIED.

Our nelgtboring little city of Cynthiana-
noted for its ''bri ght maidens and brave men"
was few days since the scene of new and
exciting comedy of errors. Nestled and encir-
cled by the placid Licking, there is romance
and beauty about it which seems to be propiti-
GUS to the God of Love. Not that we would be
understood to assert that love has any special
"local habltation," which would be glaring
heresy.
But to our adventure. The hero of our story
saw and loved young, beautiful, and modest
creature-his beau ideal Of all that was lovely
and lovable in woman.
His love was warmly reciprocated; but the
cold folks" objected. In this instance how
ever, as the parties were of legal age, their OBJ
jections constituted serious obstacles to their
union; SO, accompanied by their friends they
left their homes and came short distance to
Cynthiana, repaired to the Rankin House, there
to await the prelminaries which were to culmi-
nate in their marriage.
The parties wen. at once to the clerks Office
and procured, as they supposed, the proper
license; but the clerk had, of course uninten-
tionally, filled up the blank in the marriage
license with the attendants names. 1t was soon
discovered, however, that ''somebody had blum
dcred," and the clerk erasing the gentleman's s
name, substituted the correct one. He failed
however, to notice that the lady's name was also
wrong, and hence did not alter it.
The prelimnaries being, as it vas supposed,
admirably arranged, the party returned to the
Rankin House, the minister was sent for and
the right couple were speedily married.
Herewith the marriage of our hero and
heroine-if We were writing novel, our story
would end. But fidelity to the "truh Of histo-
tory requires US to proceed. Need we, how
ever, attempt to describe the scenes after mar
riage, wherein, amid the congratulations of
friends, the bride, blushing with sweet confu-
sion, sbone conspicuous; nor how
"All went merry as a marriage bellv'
Thus passed several hours, until the hour ar
rived for retiring, and when the clerk was as
signing the parties their respective rooms, learn
ing from the party who issued the license
the names Of those married, it was dis
covered that the marriage license was wrong;
and the clerk, not kEowing of the error, had
assigned the married lady separate room
whilst to the one unmarried he assigned the
bridal chamber. ..sr. =. ..-.
"Ah! then and there was hurrying to and
fro,
And gathering tears, and tremblings of distress,
And cheeks all pale, which but an hour ago
Blushed at the praise of their own loveliness"
The hour was quite late, bat the minister was
again sent for, the license re-corrected, and the
parties, after this unusual chapter of incidents
again married ..,

FLOWERS GRAPE.

Dr. Jackson, the eminent Boston chemist Rev.
DR. Deems, editor of the New York Watchman
Gen. d. II. Hill, in his magazine, and many
Others pronounce the scuppernong the best grape
| in the United States for either eating wine
making; but DIR G G. Wyche, of Whitesville, N G.,
writes to the Charleston News that the Flowers
Grape for luxuriance fgrowth, profusion offruit,
and adaptation to wne-making or table use, more
than equals the scuppernong. He says:
Though of the same species, it ripens about a
month later, and does not fall off like the grape.
thus greatly prolonging the vintage and enabling
person to manipulate for wine twice the guam
tity of grapes otherwise possible. The two kinds
ought therefore to be planted in the same vine
yard, as one crop does not interfere with the
other in harvesting. Black, solid, sweet and juicy,
with an odor similar to that of the scuppernong,
though less strong, it makes beautiful wine Of
any shade Of red desired. From a space of six
by nine feet on an average portion of my arbor,
gathered this season forty-sx pounds of grapes,
equivalent to $4,000 pounds per acre, and ntelli-
gent men acquainted with the grape considers
a crop of fifteen tons reasonable yield to be
expected in favorable season. These grapes will
not mature at the North, and as they yield so
much more than other species, and are not subject
to so many disasters, surely we have every reason
to embark largely in their cultivation.

THE HUMAN FAMILY.

The number of languages and dialects spoken
in the world amounts to 3064. The inhabi-
tants of the globe profess more than 1000 differ
ent religions. The number of men is about
equal to the number of women. The average
of human life is about thirty-three years. One
quarter die previous to the age of seven years;
one.half before reaching seventeen; and those
who pass this age enjoy felicity refused to one
half the human species. TO every 1000 per-
sons only one reaches 100 years of life; to every
100, only six reaches the age of sixty five; and
aot more than one in 500 lives to eighty years
Of age. There are on the earth 1,O0O,00O,0OO
Inhabitants; and of these SO. 333 ,335 die every
year, 1892 every day, $3.50 every hour, and
sixty every minute, or one every second. These
losses are about balanced by an equal number
of births, The married are longer lived than
the single, and, above all, those who observe a
sober and industrious conduct. Tall men live
longer than short ones. Women have more
chances of life in their favor previous to being
fifty years of age than men, but fewer after
wards. The number of marriages is in proper
tion of seventy five to every one hundred indi-
viduals. Marriages most frequent after the
equinoxes; that is, during the months of June
and December. Those born in the spring are
generally more robust than others Births and
deaths are more frequent by night than by day.
The number of men capable of bearing arms is
calculated at one-fourth of the population.

"Is there any person you would particularly
wish me to marry?" said a widow expectant to
her dying spouse, who had been somewhat of
tyrant in his day. "Nlarry the devil if you ike"
was the gruf reply. "Oh no, my dear, you
know it is not lawful to marry two brothers"
