THE LAST SENSATION.


RundwaY.
THE man who sets his heart upon wo-
man." hath rough old time of it, especial
~ If he marry her and she prove to be a
practical jokist. We have case in point:
A few evenings since young married
gentleman of this city, whose wife is as
mischevious little bit of femininity as ever
graced the earth since Eve made such a
failure in the fruit business, started to his
residence after his days labor was over
solacing himself with thinking of the
loving heart awaiting his return, and the
rich ripe lips that should greet him at the
tnreshoid OF his home. His heart was light,
not care-mark was on his brow He
whistled as he walked and thanked God
That he was blessed with youth and love.
he reached his abode and opened the door.
Astonishment seized him. There was no
wife to greet him on entering. The house
was in confusion. The well known trunks
and dresses were gone from their accus-
toned places! What could it mean? He
sees note, evidently hastily written and
pinned to the counterpane. He seized it
and read "lefore you have read these lines
will be far away!1 No reason was given
tor the hasty flight. He knew of none.-l
His big, manly heart felt like stone and
tears of anguish forced themselves to his
eyes. Gonel Gone from him who loved
her so! Gone! Where2 How? With
whom? Nearly crazed, he grasped his hat
Ind was about rushing for the telegraph
'ffice, when - the door of an adjoining
'oom was opened, and the mischievous lit
lie witch who had caused all this uneasi-
less, placed pair of plump little arms
round his neck, and he was fairly smoth-
red with kisses before he found out it
vas only joke.
We would not advise our lady readers to
lay Jokes of this sort too frequently. They
night get in the way of it, and carry the
'ke too tar-say two or three hundred
niles. -i.' .'-'

PosToFFIcEs.-Some country postmas-
ters may not be aware of the fact that post
offices and benzine shops are deemed in
compatible by the Department, but such is
the fact, and instructions have been sent to
special agents to see that no postoffice here
after shall be kept in the same house where
liquor is retailed.

i The LoCUsTs AGAIN.-In the advance
sheets of work on "Periodic Law,o by
Rev. George A. Leakin, A. M, Baltimore,
now being published, we find in the ap-
pendix an interesting extract on the sub
Ject OF the seventeen year locusts, from
"Latrobe's Rambles in North America, in
1885," generally confirmatory of the facts
mentioned recently in connection with the
admirable and exhaustive work of the late
Dr. U. b. Smith. IGmay here be remarked
that the singular fact stated by Dr. Smith
that the locust leads an entirely solitary
life Except in times of mating) is confirm
ed by the observations of a correspondent.
who has given considerable attention to
this extraordinary insect There is also an
additional fact mentioned by Mr.. Latrobe,
that the first appearance of the locusts in
Canada was in May, 1749. His description
of the peculiar song of the newly risen
tribes is graphic: "a low, distinct hum,
like the simmering of an enormous cauld-
ron, swells imperceptibly, changes its char
acter, and becomes fuller and sharper, thou
sands seem to unite, and at P. NJ. the whole
country rings with the unwonted sound l.
The sound is well described by the word
Pha-ro, the first syllable being long sus-
tained, and connected with the second:
pitched nearly an octave lower by a drawI-
Ing gradually growing fainter descent"
In the forthcoming work of the Reverend
Mr.. Leakin, in which the universality of
the periodic law is set forth in most inter-
estlng manner, the application of the law
to locusts seems appropriate, those insects
which disappear and reappear again at the
end OF seventeen years, only to sing short,
glad song. and then perish. On this SUBJ
Iect Mr.. Leakin observes: "The appear
ance OF this insect must be interesting to |
many others besides the naturalist. Their |
localization on this continent; their very
short stay after seventeen years prepara-
tion; their short, uniform song, and their
popularity OF laying eggs; the events
which have occurred since, aud will occur
before 1SS5-all these invest the cicada with
mystery. We ask, why this waste; such
design and results so dispro-
portionate; seventeen years absorbed In a
weeks songp We think deeper and again
ask, May not these insects be sent to teach
us truths long buried like themselves. /. a

monies which declare the glory of God, not
for life week, but pauseless as eternity ?'n
