BE WISE IN T1ME.-The best and shreWd-

good and paying investment for their mon

features. But what should commend it

money for the benefit Of mans family in
case Of sudden death. How much want and
suffering have been prevented by time

has proved Of special benefit among the

SINGULAR Scene. AS the Panama steamer

SINGULAR SCENE. AS the Panama steamer
was about to sail this morning, carriage drove
down to the landing and young couple got
mt of it. The female of the party was very
handsome and the man not bad looking. They
had evidently made every necessary arrange
mept for departure and large Saratoga trunk
containing the young woman'S worldly goods
was carried on board by the porterS. The cou-
ME then followed, and were seen lettering In
the saloon apparently impatient to SAIL Her
face was beaming with bushes and smiles, but
he was observed to be quite anxious about
something.
When the first signal for those not passen-
gers to 60 ashore was sounded, he suddenly re-
Collected that he had promised to see some one
on the wharf, and telling the young lady he
would Immediately return, he rushed off the
steamer and concealed himself In the crowd.
He wanted the cables cast off, he wished to see
the gang. plank hauled in, and to hear the sig
nal gun of that departing steamer, but he had
no desire to avail himself of the benefits OF his
own ticket to New York. Again the warning
gong was sounded, and as he had not yet re-
appeared the young woman In the saloon be-
came alarmed. Why did he not return? She
FASTENED to the side of the steamer and des-
cried the young man making quick time away
from the landing. The entire truth flashed on
her mind. She was to have been seLt away.
He did not intend to go. She was betrayed
and deserted The plank was unloosened and
about to be taken away, when the deserted
damsel sped down it like an arrow, and burly
porters struggled in her wake under the load
of her Saratoga box. She made the wharf,
sprang into hack, the trunk was taken up,and
10 an instant she was in hot pursuit of the false
one. The chase was exciting, and the crowd
watched it as long as they could with intense
interest 1t has not been ascertaiue1 whether
she caught him or whether the pursuit is still
going on. At all events, the steamship COM
pany has the price oftwo through tickets with
out the expense Of carrying the passengers. 1t
is stated that the man who attempted to play
this trick on the fair one is well known in this
city, and is q married man. She was not his
wife. San Francisco BuHetin.

CAUSES OF SUDDEN ATU-Very few of
the sudden deaths which are said to arise from
disease of the heart do really arise from that
cause. To ascertain the real origin of sudden
deaths an experiment has been tried in Europe
and reported to a scientific congress at Stras
burg. Sixty-six cases of sudden death were
made the subject of thorough post-mortem
examination; 10 these cases only two were
found who had died from disease of the heart.
Nine out of sixty-six had died from apo
plexy, while there were forty-six cases of cen
gestiOn of the lungs-that is, the lungs were
50 full of blood that they could not work, not
having room enough for a sufficient quantity
Of air to support life. The causes that
produce congestion of the lungs are cold feet
tight clothing, costive bowels sitting still until
chilled after being warmed with labor or rap
id walk, going too sud- Senly from a close room
into the air, especially alter speaking, and sud-
den, depressing news operating on the blood.
These causes of sudden death being known, an
evidence of them may serve to lengthen many
valuable lives, which would otherwise be lost
under the verdict of heart complaint. That
disease is supposed to be inevitable and incur
able hence many may not take the pains they
Would TO avoid sudden death, if they knew it
lay in their power.

SWEET POTAToEs. There was received, two
or three days ago, by the Commissioner OF Ag-
nCulture, through General McFarran, of General
Grants staff, couple of sweet potatoes raised
9py Ar. Higgins of Glasgow, Barren county,
Ny, which, for size, excel perhaps anything OF
t9e kind ever before raised in this country =
One OF them weighed four and one-balt pounds,
Out It's length and circumference were not meas.
afed The smallest one, which is yet in the
possession of the Commissioner Of Agriculture,
measures eight inches in length and fourteen in
circumference, and weighs three and one.halt
pounds These potatoes were imported from
brazll, and, we believe, are the first raised In
tnls country. MIR Higgins estimates his crop
tGr the present year at 5000 bushels. The
favor OF these potatoes are said to be excellent.
Il this be so they will prove great acquisition.
