Queen of Spain, it is reported, will form 4

The news from South America by the Allan

change in the aspect of the war In Paraguay.
The latest previous advices represented the

announcement is made that they have at last
captured the Paraguayan stronghold of Huma-
ita, with q large amount OF war material and 4
considerable porto Of its garrison. The place
was finally reduced by starvation, a nd 10 at.
tempting to leave it four thousand OF the Para
guayans were cut off from the main body and
surrounded The Brazilian iron-cads are also

the Paraguayan retreat. 1t is therefore pre-
dicted that the war is at an end, but the next
steamer NAV put different face on affairs.
A Panama letter. says the natives openly

A Noble Woman.

General Palmer, in a recent speech,
said: 81 was down in Williamson
county the other day, and 7 came
across a man who went into the regi-
ment under my command as pri-
yate. He was preacher OF the
Methodist Church, q plain, simple,
unpretending, God-fearing man. He
came into the army as private SOL
dier. He did his duty we'll. He
preached. to the soldiers every Sab
bath. They had no chaplain, sent
him home, and when he came home,
although he was qualified il ell the
gifts that pertained to his profession,
he had not received the ecclesiastical
order that entitled him to the COM
mission. He was sent by some of
the Methodists to Wilmington, Del
aware, and there that good man,
Bishop Ames, took him by the hand
and ordained him, and gave him
money to bring him back to the army,
and he was made chaplain in the
110th Illinois Regiment. / met him
with his wife, and | was talking to
her about the sacrifice she had made of
OF her husband. She said: "Sir, you
do me more than justice. did not
advise my husband to go into the
army to serve the country" j look
Cd at her astonished. She said: 81
advised him to edlist because he
would be safer in the srmy than he
would at home" That was the case.
1t required more courage to stay at
home during the war, In many dis
tricts, and discharge the duty OF a
good citizen, than 1t did to go into
the army. egg -t

FindlaY School House.

Findlay, Ohio, with population
of not much more than three thous-
and, about one third the population
of Mansfield, has one of the finest
Public School buildings in the State.
1t has been recently completed, ded-
icated and occupied. 1t is an ele-
CANT structure, four stories high, fine
ly finished, arragned with special
advantage for light, heat and ventila-
ton. The three lower stories are
divided into school rooms proper
and recitation rooms. In the fourth
story Is large hall easy of access,
with accommodations for nearly q
thousand persons.
The people are justly proud of
their building and their schools,
which, under the superindendence Of
MIR. Miller, who has filled the position
for the last ten years, and an able
corps of teachers, are one ofthe most
attractive features of their town.
They call it the 'speeple's college,
and intend that it shall furnish all
the advantages of superior educa-
tion. The higher department there,
numbers at present about one hun
dred, many of whom are young la
dies and gentlemen, seeming to sp-
preeiate their privileges, are deter
mined to make the best ofthem. Such
a building is needed in Mansfield, to
give an impetus to the cause OF edu-
cation. And we trust that the peo-
pie of our growing city will see the
necessity and literally vote the
Herald. -1

Take Away Your COektail"-A
Warming to Drinkers.

Jlnks drank too much, as all his
friends knew, but like many another
good fellow who drinks, it was hard
20 convince Jinks that he ought to
let up on it. He boarded at one OF
the hotels, and night after night he
would remain until past midnight at
the saloon bar "histing" it in, rend-
ering it necessary morning after
morning to have cocktail brought
up from the saloon before he could
get out of bed, and then another to
brace him up for breakfast.
Finally, the bar attendant, who
brought up the drinks, demonstrated
with him, telling him that if he con
tinued his course much longer he
would certaiBly have the "Jim jims.'
'The what ?'' asked Jinks, not ex-
aetly comprehending.
"The man with the poker-get

and he determined to give Jinks a
fright Accordingly, the next morn

Jinks' room was heard, the bar-tend-
er prepared a very enticiDg gin-cock-
tail, and placing it on the waiter, sur
rounded it with sundry toads, lizards,
small snakes, &c. This he conveyed
TO Jinks' room, that individual, who
had loaded himself with "benzine,'
the night before rather more heavily
than usual, nervously awaiting it.
"Morning,'' said Jinks, stretching
ont q hand that trembled some, "glad

Why, what do you mean?' said
the man, in innocent wonder.
"Why the toads, snakes, and things

shrinking to the back of the bed aud
viewing the loathsome reptiles with
aversion aud dismay.
why, Jinks, my man, there is
nothing around the tumbler-nothing
on the waiter except the cocktail"
Il tell you there are. see snakes,

"Ah, Jinks, with sigh | was
afraid how it would be. / told you
yesterday morning, don't you iemem-

there amt no things to see. You've

Jinks raises up in bed. ''Do you
mean to tell me,'' said he, "that there
amt no snakes and things there p
Most assuredly l dO.''
Jinks considered o moment, and
then lying down said, in sorrowful
voice and with mild, repellant wave
of the hand, stake a,Oay your eOcktai"'
