CURIOUS SCENE IN A LONDON CHURCH.
The following scene recently took place in
an East-end church, 1t appeared that a
widow Of about 80, with a large family, had
persuaded a young man of "a to marry her,
and that when before the minister the dues-
ton "'Wilt thou have this woman to be thy
welded wife2" was put TO him, he replied,
Hold ON a bit, gunner; don't you be in
quite such a hurry, / want TO know more
about the business first" His companion
behind him said, go on, don't you be in
a funk about it; it's all right" but the
bridegroom was not TO be persuaded. After
waiting some time the minister said, 'Let
us pray" and the intended Benedict turned
round to his friend for advice on this sub
ject upon which the answer was returned,
''that it was like going up stairs on your
knees. There was a tremendous crowd
waiting outside for them, and when they
emerged from the church those in waiting
freely bespotted them with flour, &c. The
following morning the woman came TO the
house for relief, stating that she did not
know where her husband was, nor anything
about him. London paper.

PASTORAL GOODNESS. "A lady, recently,
in giving her views of the preaching of q
minister to whom she had listened several
times, said II thought it was the bust.
ness Of the minister to feed the sheep
This man don't feed us no only throws
clubs and stones at us; and sends us bleat-
ing and hungry home" Many q one might
gather a useful hint from this, as TO the
proper mode of dealing with the flock OF
Christ. Harshness, severity, ~fault-fnding,
accompanies but very little good in the
family, the church or the world. True, il
is the pastors duty 10 admonish and re.
buko, to correct error and reform sin, but
always in the spirit of the Master. A scold-

Success Of a Cooperative COlliery.
IRON the Nation.l

The story of the Briggs colliery, in York
shire, England, of which most persons who
are interested in co-opemtion have heard,
has just been published in the sixth report
Of the Trades Union Commission. Briggs
a Co. were tho proprietors Of large coal
mines. They found their business i'm 1865.
after ten years of difficulties, on tho verge
OF ruin through strikes, q~uarrels and play
days" They were at the mercy of their
men, who, Mr., Briggs says, seemed ut
terly reckless as to what loss they inflicted
on their employers and fellow-workmen. "
In that year, therefore, almost in despair,
the firm was dissolved and a Joint stock
company substituted. The old partners
reserved 5000 out Of 5000 shares, of $50
each, the rest being offered TO the work
men or any n who choose TO buy.
Then it was arranged that capital should
have, first, ten per cent. of the profits; the
remainder to be divided into two equal
parts-ono half to go to capital, in further
remuneration; tho remainder to DO divid-
ed amongst the employees of all kinds as a
bonus proportioned TO earnings. The ex-
pertinent has been a complete success.
Before the change the firm rarely made
five per cent, on their capital; they now
realize ten per cent. always and n surplus,
divided ns we have described. The shares
are Mt twenty-five per cent. premium.
Strikes have ceased. Mr.. Briggs has very
much more control over the men than he
ever had, in fact, and says he els infinitely
more proprietor than before" Moreover,
the Trades Union organization has been
driven out of the district; and, more Won
derful than all, the employers have to in
t%eriere to prevent the laborers working
each other too hard. What if the proprie-
tors of the great collieries here, In such
abodes of bliss as AIauch Chunk, were to
try this experiment.

twenty who refused to comply with the re-

A CURIOUS PLACE FOR TREASURE. Mr..
Isaac Davis, of Hollis, Maine, was quite
startled the other day to learn upon look
ing for some S15, 900 in United States bonds
that had, as he thought, been safely put
away in a bureau drawer in his sleeping
room, were missing, and acne of the family
could tell anything about them. The decision
then was that some bold robbers had taken
the pile. Mr.. Davis sent for an officer
from Portland, who, after inquiring into
the matter a little, told them that the bonds
were still about the house, and a thorough
search would bring them to light. Friday
last the bonds were found by Davis's daugh-
ter, safely hid beneath n feather bed. 1t
seems that Mrs, Davis, an elderly lady, had
put them there and had forgotten it.

A MEXICAN TRAIN-CURIoUs SPECTACLE
A large train of Mexican wagons and CARA
tons arrived in our city on Saturday, load
ed with flour. The carnations were even
curiosities TO San Antonio, being IA simple
cart, with a lofty covering, and drawn by n
team of five mules. The teams were all
matched, and the finest lot ever brought to
this city from Mexico. The owner, n large
fine looking specimen Of the Mexican, ac-
companied the train, mounted on a SPLEEN
did mule, caparisoned with elegant NIexi-
can saddlery. The train expects TO take
back cotton if it can be bought. Consid-
ering that this train comes from Leon, in
the State of Gu~anajuata, at least a thou
sand miles from this city, the animals look
! n fine condition. The return of Mexican
trade to this city will cause an increase of
our prosperity, and a railroad 10 the Gulf

POISONED by BOLOGNA SAUsAGEs. The
entire family Of Mr., Seth Codding were
poisoned at New Bedford, Mass, ON Satur-
day, by eating Bologna sausage. They all
ate of the sausage at breakfast, and were
attacked between noon and midnight with
severe vomiting, cramps, and diarrhea,
the usual symptoms of cholera morbus.
The family consists OF Mr.. Codding and
wife, daughter and son. The last about
seventeen years of age, il the most
seriously affected. The sausage was
thought to be a very nice one, and
ON that account Mrs. Codding sent a
piece toA married daughter, Mi. Holder
W. Potter, living near by, who eat two very
thin slices, and has been attacked similarly
to the others, though not so severely as
somo of them. Mrs. Potter has q nursing
child nine months old, which is also un-
well, probably from the mothers milk be-
ing im~pregnated with the poison. They
are all supposed to be out of danger. An
examination of q piece of the Sausage un-
der a microscope, discovered no trace of
trichina, and it is thought that the poison
ing was the effect of tainted meat. The sau-
sage veing very good" or in other words,
very tender, shows that ii was just on the
point OF putrefaction.
