A REAL RoMANCE.-DuriDg Prices
raid" in 1864, a skirmish took place on
the line Of Charlton and Howard coun-
ties, some four miles from Glasgow, in
which one of the .Tebs" was left on the
ground dangerously wounded ia the neck.
While in this condition, Miss Sarah j.
Smith, a school teacher In the vicinity,
happened 20 pass by. Seeing the wound
ed man, she went TO him and staunched
his wound, probably saving his life. She
remained with him until zeal nightfall,
when he requested her to leave, as his
companions would probably come 10 the
night and take him away. If not, she
would find him where he was in the morn
ing, living or dead. He said he was
known by the name of Tuckev, but that
his real name was II. G. Mcdonald, and
that he was from Louisville, Ky. Next
morning Mcdonald was gone, and Miss
Smith knew nothing concerning him at.
forwards. A few DAYS Ago., says the
Glasgow Times, Miss Smith (who still re-
sides in the neighborhood) received a
letter from the administrator of II. e. Nc
Donald. Sr., informing her that she was
named in the will of the deceased as the
legatee of $4,000. in consideration of
having saved the life of his nephew and
only heir, the FL. G. Mcdonald named in
connection with the incident Of 1864.

How TO MAKE COOP CoFFEE.-Good
coffee is a luxury, but one that is seldom
met with. 1t is doubtful whether oae FAM
lily In a dozen know what really good cof.
fee is. Though we have published slime
upon line upon this subject, we give the
following, from a lady correspondent of
the Germantown Telegraph. and hope
some of our lady readers will give the
method a trial;
The making Of good coffee is a rare
thing in this country; most persons boil
it, thus making a decoction instead of an
infusion; this efectnally gets rid of the
delicate and agreeable flavor, and leaves
a comparatively tasteless beverage. The
following particulars will be found worth
attention
Never buy your coffee ground, but
grind it yourself, Immediately before u.s.
ing it keep your cofee-pot, whatever
kind you may use, wiped clean and dry
inside; a damp tea or cofee-pot acquires
q musty favor that spoiIs the best tea or
coffee. The cheapest and . rhaps the
best coffee pots are those made on the
French plan, called eafetieres. If you
have not one of those. adopt the follow
ing plan: Put your freshly ground cof.
fee into the ~cofee.pot, previously made
warm, and pour upon it water actually
boiling set the pot blythe side Of the FIRE
for a few seconds, but do not let it boil
mp; then pour a cnpful out and return it
kothe pot.
