A CORRESPONDENT of the Pail Mall Gu
zehe writes from Rome: Several Eng
lish clergymen are here for the purpose
Of obtaining recognition of their An
slican ordination, when, they say, they
will be ready, with number Of their
brethren, to unite themselves to the
Church Of Rome. The Pope, however
absolutely refuses their request, and has
ordered some theologians to draw up 9
paper containing the reasons for this non
poSsumus, at the same time, he urges the
applicants either to be content with the
position of Catholic laymen or to receive
ordination in the Roman Church. The
clergymen have expressed their determi'
nation to attend the council.

The Evansville Courier says that city
is flooded with counterfeit money. The
bills are well executed, and are Of Vari-
Gus denominations. By a comparison
with the genuine, it will be found that
the counterfeits are little shorter than
the genuine. There are other marks by
which the bills may be detected, but
bong so well executed they require q
practiced eye to discover them. 1t will
be well for all to be on their guard when
taking new bills of any description.

The Knoxville Whig has this para
graph in regard to the discussion

We are informed that Governor Senter
kindled the most flaming enthusiasm for
him in glorious old Sewer. Stokes de-
nounced him as a rebel candidate, to
which, when Senters turn came, he re>
piled by inquiring if that were so, how
it was that he happened to be in rebel
prisons with Pickens and Thronburgh
and others, whose eyes he closed in
death ? This alIusion to names that are
cherished and dear, embalmed in loyal
hearts, reused the enthusiasm to high
pitch, as was evinced by their hearty aud
prolonged applause.

An EPISODE IN REAL LIFE.-A Brad
ford (Iowa) correspondent Of the St. Lou
Is Times writes Not far from this -four
ishing village, in Northern Iowa, there
lived with his wife a well TO do farmer,
by the common name Of Smith. They
had lived happily together for 18 or 20
years, and four handsome intelligent chil~
dren blessed their union. But they were
not content, and eventually agreed to part,
tired of living together. So, one bright
winter morning, the husband and father
bade kind good-by to his family and
took his leave. He went to Wisconsin,
engaged III the mercantile business there,
occasionally writing to his wife and chill
dren, sending them money, etc. After an
absence OF seven or eight months, Mrs
Smith received letter from her absent
lord informing her that he had met an
old schoolmate, an intimate friend of hers,
whom lie liked very much, and if she
(the wiie) thought best, he would marry
her, return to this village, and reside near
them, the better to look after her welfare
and that of their children. The wife i'm
mediately wrote, advising him TO do SO,
and cordially inviting them to come di-
rectly to her house, and remain as long
as they wished. He thanked her for the
advice and accepted the invitation, saying
that they were TO be married the follow
ing Monday, and would start immediate
ly, and reach home Oh Wednesday eve~
ming. The wife ma lie E'bride's loaf, -
sent invitations to all her friends in the
neighborhood, and when the happy cou-
pie arrived they found splendid entertain
ment and goodly company awaiting
them, and were warmly welcomed and
congratulated by all. They furnished a
house across the street, and ''live as hap
PLY as bugs in rug" Every morning
the father goes over, builds fire, sweeps
the floor, and puts on the kettle Of Mrs.
Smith No /, and furnishes her with money
for the support of herself and family. Tie
children call one ''Mother Jane" and the
other ''Mother Susan" and the utmost
harmony and good feeling prevails on all
sides

THE PUREsT PEARL.

Beside the church door, aweary and lone,
blind woman sat On the cold door stone +;
The wind was bitter, the snow fell fast,
And a mocking noise N the htful blast
Seemed ever 10 echo her moaning cry,
As she begged for aims of the passers by:
"Have pity on me. have pity l pray:
My back is bent, and my head is gray"
The balls were ringing the hour of prayer,
And many good people were gathering there !;
But, covered with furs and mantes warm,
They hurried past through the wintry storm.
Some were hoping their souls to save,
And some were thinking of death and the
grave,
And, alas they had no time to heed
The poor soul asking for charity's need.
Aud me wore blooming with beauty grace.
But closer mutfied in wells of lace,
They not the sorrow, nor heard the moan,
Of her who sat on the cold door stone.
AZ last came one OF noble name,
By the city counted the wealthiest dame
And the pearls that o'er her neck were
strung
She proudly there to the beggar flung.
Then followed a maiden young and fair,
Adorned with clusters of golden hair;
But her dress was thin, and scanty, and worn,
n ot even the beggar's seemed more foriorn.
With a fearful look. aud pitiying sigh,
She whispered soft. "No jewels have ],
But give you my prayers good friend said
she,
"And surely know that God listens to me-"
On her poor. weak hand, so shrunken aud
small,
The blind woman felt tear-drop fall,
Then kissed il and said to the weeping girl,

ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE.-An Iowa
paper Of a recent date, gives the particu~
lars of romantic story which border
somewhat on the marvellous. Years ago
a Pennsylvania farmer loved and married
a charming young girl that lived near him.
After the marriage time passed on; soon
the farmer contracted great taste for
liquor, which frequently got the best Of
him. His wife demonstrated with him,
which on one occasion ended by the hus-
band staobing her with a butcher knife.
he left precipitately, supposing he had
killed her, and lid himself in the West,
where in few years he became pros
porous and wealthy merchant. The wife
in the meantime recovered, and after liv-
ing alone for FIVE years, married again.
Her husband, however, died at the expi~
ration of year, and she also went to
the West. Then the incredible part of
the story appeared. The parties met
again after their long separation, and be-
came intimately acquainted, but neither
recognized the other. An engagement is
entered into, which results in marriage
and, upon the wife disrobing herself in
the evening, he notices the scar made by
his hand years ago, and suddenly recog-
nizes her as his wife of former years.
Here 10 a chance for story writer's.

HAD TO WASH THE SHIRTs.-WEile
we were lying in camp at Rossville. Geor-
gia, the Sixtieth Illinois returned from
recruits. One of these having exhausted
his supply Of clean shirts, aud not yet
having learned to be his own laundress,
asked veteran where he could get some
washing dons
''Do you see those tents there by the
church Well, 60 there aud ask for Mr..
Morgan; he does washing. He's crus-
ty old cuss, but if you talk pretty nice to
him he'll do it for you.''
The recruit went as directed and found
Gen. Morgan walking in front of his tent,
dressed, as was his custom. In the uniform
Of a high private.

poral approached, ard saluted.) 'Young
man, 60 with the corporal and show him
John Smith, SO that he can bring him
over here. And you come back with
them, and bring all the dirty clothes you
have"
They departed and soon returned with
the guilty veteran and huge armful OF
dirty shirts, socks, etc.
The General said to Smith: "Did you
send this young man here to have his
clothes washed %
eyes sir, for joke"
For a joke? Well, we'll have the
joke carried out. We do have clothes
washed here, sometimes. Corporal, take
this man Smith and that bundle of clothes
down to the creek, and have him wash
them, and dry them, and fold them up
neatly and return them TO the owner
See that be does the job handsomely"

An INDIGNANT VIRGIN,-The Shasta
Courier relates the following:
We heard good joke on a resident of
Dog Creek the other day. The party re-
ferred to is bachelor and lives on the
wagon road. A few days ago an eIni-
grant wagon from Oregon came along
and camped near our friends place. The
head of the family soon made himself ac-
qlainted with The proprietor of the prem>
ises, and asked him why he didn't have
"a woman to keep house for him The
answer was that he intended to marry
Just as soon as he could find a woman
willing to enter into the bonds of matri-
mony. The Oregonian remarked that he
could find him a partner if be would take
her. The bachelor said that was right
into his hand, and the emigrant invited
him TO his camp.
The Oregonian called up a bouncing
damsel Of about tweny years, and inform
Ell her that the gentleman accompanying
him was son the marry" and was will
ling 10 take her for better or for worse.
The damsel, delighted with the prospect,
advanced, and seizing her friend by the
hand, assured him that she was glad 10
see him and was ready to marry him at
the ''drop of hat" while the old lady
FASTENED up to congratulate her ''darter"
on her good luck.
Surprised and alarmed at the serious
turn matters had taken, our friend, who is
cons;itutionalIy opposed to the institution
of matrlmony, endeavored to explain, by
saying tina; he was only joking and did
not want to marry. At this the Oregon
ian became indignant, and the wonld>be
bride told her father to take his rife and
''d-ap the varmint in his tracks," At
this affectionate suggestion the bachelor
left for his Notifications, the last thing he
heard being the voice of the old lady con-
soling her ''darter" with the remark that
it was best to ''let the blk CO."

An AWFUL STORY. "There was once
an awful little girl who had an awful way
of saying awful to everything. She
lived in an awful house, in an awful street,
in an awful village, which was in all awful
place. She went to an awful school,
where she had an awful teacher, who
gave her awful lessons out of awful books.
Every day she was SO awful hungry that
she ate an awful amount Of food, so that
she looked awful healthy. Her hat was
so awful small and her feet SO awful large
She went to an awful church, and her
minister was an awful preacher. When
she took an awful walk she climbed aw-
ful hills, and when she got awful tired
she sat down under an awful tree to rest
herself In summer she found the wealth
er awful hot, and in winter awful cold.
When it didn't rain, there was an awful
drought, and when the awful drought was
over, there was an awful rain. So that
this awful girl was all the time in an aw-
ful state, and if she don't get over say
ing 'awfuP about everything l am afraid
she will, by and by, come to an awful
end +"
