toned closely in regard tothe way and man.
mr. of this theft there appeared to be a very
curious history about this affair. Sheriff
Waroler made the arrest of Matthew and
wife, and they were brought to this city on
Wednesday, All the parties, including Mrs

TO have the uattrrsctllrl. Mnilrnv admitted
that he owed Mrs. Mills 500. borrowed
money. but he S;ri.l that there was some ar
ranermcnt between Mrs Mills and his wife
involving the rest Of the money. The par
ties went before an attorney to see if the mat
ter could not be afnicably arranged and the
following developments we're made.
1t appears that Mrs Mills was living or
hoanline with Mathcnv and his wife, and
Mrs. Maihcnv became Jealous of her. There
WIS trouble in the domestic circle. Mrs
Mills admitted that sine loved Mathcny and
She meant 10 have him. Mrs Matheny then
thought if Mrs. Mills was going to run off
will, her husband. she ought TO be paid for
| it. Mrs. Mills readily agreed to this. and
paid Mrs. Mathrny 500. An arrange

Mrs. Mills and Matthew to 90 back to her
old home somewhere in Pennsylvania. Mrs.
Mills was to 90 to EInwool and remain
there until Matthew cnull complete arrany =

she had been swindleI, and so made her
way back to this place, and entered
complaint as above stated. At first Mrs.
Mills lid not want to see Mathcny, hut wan
tel the attorney to settle the matter with
Malheny and bis wife. Matbeny said he
wonld not settle with the attorney, but he
would settle with Mrs. Mills. They were
permitted to occupy the private room of the
attorney, and in a few minutes they had ar
ranged matters. The attorney asked them
the terms of their settlement, but they said
that was their own matter. All three, Ma
thcny, his wife and Mrs. Mills. then had
conference, all appeared satisfied with the
arrangement, whatever it was. They prompt
lly settled all costs in the matter, and Mrs.
Matheny remarked in the settlement, '.Ro-
sella gets the man." At the close Of these
proceedings, a little son of Mrs. Matheny,
some four or FIVE years Of age, just began to
comprehend that he was about to lose his
father, and commenced crying. These we're
the only tears shed on the occasion. Mrs
Matheny took her little child by the hand
and they went one way while Matheny and
Mrs Mills started together in another d.
rection.

Plea for Mean Men

The Missouri Republican" has cores
pondent who undertakes the thankless task
of defending mean men. He endeavors to
prove, in an elaborate essay, the superiority
Of the s'mean man" to the ''good fellow Of
our period. And, in gotd sooth, he comes
nearer to success in lis task than it is polite
to acknowledge.
One thing that mean man is remarkable
for is his reliability You always know
where to find him. ASH him to contribute
to testimonial to Rodgers, or to subscribe
for the relief of Smuggs. He says no. But
he acts no. He don't give cent. But put
the same appeal to the ''good fellow" and
he saws, CERTAINLY, my good boy. Put
me down for "" And you do put him
down for ", subsequently, enjoying the
privilege of making the subscription good
ont of Your own pocket. For "a ''good fel-
low" always says yes, but never acts yes.
Who makes the best husband? At the
risk Of bringing down torrent of malcdic-
tons on my unprotected head, shall still
adhere to the man who is supposed to have
no heart or genuine human sentiment. The
.'good fellow for lover, the ''mean man.
for husband The latter will rob all crea-
tion to supply his household ; the former
will rob his family to accommodate his
friends. Form all the married women in
ST. Louis in solid column up aud down
Fourth street, and If don't get ninetynine
votes out of hundred in favor of my prop
os;tion. will treat the drinking community
to barrel of gin and water on the occasion
of the first election of female President. -
Good fellow, all love; mean man, all bust
ness. One takes his wife to the opera in a
four-horse carriage, the other rides trium-
pllanty in a street omnibus. The good fell
low never can he crrss to anybody but his
wife, for fear Of making himself unpopular !;
the mean man is so sour with all the rest Of
the void that he has not particle Of ILL
temper to spare at nome.

but it wont buy beef. Mean men seldom
get ''salubrio,is" lie is too mean. His
wife is never jealous. She knows all wo-

AN INDEPENDENT FAMILY-The Camden
Journal narr; ties the following facts and per-
tinently asks: Is such family dependent
upon Cufee? .u
A friend Of ours, with whom we spent a
couple of nights few weeks ago, with the
aid of his two sons, one scarcely large
enough to plough, made this year three
bales Of cotton upwards of four hundred
bushels of corn, one hundred bushels of
peas, two hundred bushels Of sweet potatoes,
besides Irish potatoes, binders, &C., and had
thirteen hogs ready for the knife, which
would nett him 1000 to 2300 pounds of
pork, with -four enough to serve him until
harvesting his next crop of wheat. Of which
he has planted largely. His crop was all
harvested and housed, his lots and stables
we'll filled with litter and the boys we're tax
ing holiday after their years work,
His wife and one daughter attend to all
the household and domestic affairs, and
clothe handsomely the family, consisting
of eight, from wool raised on the plantation.
Onr friend lives in the ''Sand Hills" and
plants sandy land, but since freedom has
adopted the system of planting the richest
portions, and leaving the other to rest and
recuperate. Is such family dependent?

the luciousness of the date, and the succu-

him by his maker. Then the fiend assumed
the appearance Of an efnlgcnt spirit, ami
pretended to lie messenger from Heaven
commanding him to eat and drink. The

SINGULAR FREAK OF NATURE-We are
informed that a bitch belonging to gentle
man in Prince George county, recently gave
birth to three pups, all of whom are totally
minus Of legs. In place of these useful
members, very short, fleshy stumps are Wis

tinued with even greater proportionate losses.
A five-foot bat wing or fish tail burner will
give maximum of light in proportion to
the gas consumed. compared with any less
sized burner; and it will he found in practice
the larger sized burners are the most eco
nomical
The large size give as high as 200 to 800
per cent. advantage in light as compared
with the smallest sizes.
AS an examnle': A bats wing burner
consuming two feet per hour gives the light
Of two and a quarter candles only. while a
burner consuming seven and one-haif feet
per hour gives the light Of TWENTY-FIVE cam
dies, the pressure being uniformly four
tenths Of an inch.
The knnwlc,lge of these facts is Of impor-

dcavor to cconomise obtain results directly
fopposite to his anticipations 1t is more
economical to have one good large gas light

ment to avow what he thinks on this question
but recent judgment of the Privy Council
protects him.
The Liberals in England seem little
frightened lest MIR. Disraeli should outwlt tnem
on the subject of the Irish Church as he dla IN
the matter of parliamentary reform. The royal
commissioners whose report the government
has adopted, recommend changes which would
reduce the Irish establishment 10 Lilliputian
institution. They take it in hand and cut it
down as with pair of scissors. But they leave
untouched the odiousness of the ascendency-
Small as it would be, it would still rank as ''the
Established Church of Ireland" and would
consequently remain Us offensive as ever to the
Catholics. The commissioners studied the
Protestant interest exclusively, and the gov
ernment must do more than that. The whole
question depends upon the constitution of the
new House of Commons. IF it be true that Mr..
Gladstone is likely to have majority of one
hundred and thirty-six at his back, then no
scheme that Disraei can propose will be ac-
cepted. The latter could not drag the church
party with him into direct disestablishment,
and even were that possible, the Liberals arc
hungry for Office and would insist on having a
Cabinet representing the majority. Ii, how
ever, the foregoing computation proves erro-
neous aud there is only nominal majority of
Liberals, Disraei may patch up the trouble for
another year.
