THE Copperhead papers that have
harped so loud and so long on the
immense fortune made by Col. A. j.
Butler. with the conniyance of his
brother, the General, are now very
much chagrined to learn THAI the es-
tate has proven insolvent on settle
ment, and that all their sensation
stories were simply lies. Not sorry
for the lies, perhaps, but that one
sensation source has been dried up.

The Way to Spoil Girls.

l. BE always telling, from her car
liest childhood, what a beautiful crca-
ture she is. 1t is a capital way of in
fating the vanity of little girl, to be
constantly exclaiming: owprettyP
Children understand such q fiattery
even when in the nurses arms, and
the evil is done to the character in its
earliest formation. m ..-.
=. Begin, as soon as she can tod
die, to dress her out in fashionable
clothes anG rich dresses Put hoop
upon her at once, with all the artifi-
cial adornments of flounccs and feath
ers, and flowers and curls. Fondncss
for dress will thus become a promi
nent characteristic, and will usurp the
whole attention of the young mortal,
and be long step toward spelling her.
8. Let her visit so much that she
finds no happiness at homo, and there
fore will not be apt to stay there anI
learn home duties. 1t is 4 capital
thing for a spoiled daughter to seek all
her happiness in visiting and change of
place and associates. She will thus
grow as useless as modern fashionable
parents delight that their daughters
should be. '-
4 Be careful that her education
gives her smattering of all the ac-
complishments, without the slightest
knowledge of the things really useful
in life. If her mind and time are oc-
cupied in modern accomplishments,
there will be no thought of the neces-
s,ty and virtue of Icing of some real
use to somebody pervading her heart,
and she will soon be ready as spoiled
daughter.
5. AS soon as consequence, keep
her in profound Ignorance of all
the useful arts of housekeeping, i'm
pressing upon her mind that 1t is vul-
gar to do anything for yourself, or to
learn how anything is done in the
house. A spoiled daughter should
never be taught the mysteries of the
Kitchen; such things lady always
leaves to the servants. 1t would be
vulgar for her to know how TO dress
Il salad or make a pudding.
6. To complete the happiness of
your spoiled daughter, marry her to
a bearded youth with soft hands, who
knows rs little how to earn money as
she does to save it. Her happiness
will then be finished for her life time.

Fruit Trees.

The following respecting fruit trees
will be found interesting. .r-......
1. When fruits occupy tle ground
nothing else eshould- except very short
grass. '.'
2. Fruitfulness and growth Of tree
cannot be expected the same year.
3. There is no plum that the ciTculio
will not take though any kind may
sometimes escape for one year in one
year in one place. a -- .<a.t I.
, 4. Peach borers will not do much
damage when stiff clay is heaped up
around the tree foot high.
.5 Pear blight still puzzles the great
est men. The best remedy known is
to plant two for every one that dies.
6. If you don't know how to prune,
doa't hire q man from the other side
of the sen who knows less than you.
Z. Don't cut off Il big lower limb
unless you are renter, and don't care
what becomes Of the tree when your
time is out.
s. A tree with limbs coming out
near the ground is worth two trees
trimmed up five feet, and worth four
trees trimmed UP ten feet, and SO on
till they are notworth anything.
8. Trim down, not up.
10. Shorten in, not lcngthen up.
IL. If you had your arm cut off, you
would feel 1t to your hcart--a tree
will not feel, bu' rot to the heart.
II. When apy.isody tells you of Il
gardener that understands all about
horticulture and agriculture, and that
he can be hired, don't believe Il word
of it, for there are no such to be hired.
Such q man can make more than you
can afford to give him, and if lie has
sense enough to understand the bust
ness, he will also have enough to know
this. .- ...r:

A Wise Choice.

The 4merican baptist tells the fol-
lowing good story, which we commend
to our young female readers, and males
also: .
"Where did you first meet with your
bride?" 1 said to 4 young friend OF
mine, who had invited me to his wed
ding, .-- ...
His reply was: A year ago 1 was
one of dinner party of ladies and
gentlemen, at which a young lady was
noticed not to drink any wine. Our
host observed it, and said:
"a glass Of wine with you miss ?''
Excuse me, sir" said she.
"W hat excuse [! Are you tceto-
taller What have we Il tectotaler

do you never drink wine % .

cison of character deeply impressed

satisfied that one, of such principles
would make me a good companion. |

she has just become my wife. That's
why L married her." .., ....-'..;,

SAD ACCIDENT.
Five Persons Attempt to Cross the Riv-
er in Skiff and Two are Drowned.

Yesterday morning about 3 o'clock,
Andrew Ovitt, Oscar. Lyons, and his
wife AdaIine and her two sisters, Lo-
dusca and Alice Lomas, left the ball
room at the Columbia House in Wa
terville, to return to their homes on
the opposite side of the river. The
skifr Which they used in crossing was.
perhaps, half mile above Waterville,
opposite Mitonvillc, at the ferry. The
five persons got into the skiff, and Os-
car Lyons took the oars. 1t was not
yet q,lite daylight, a deep fog hung
upon The water, and the current was
swift and turbulent Two of the Ia
dies were 10th to enter upon what to
them seemed q perilous voyage, but
the othcl assured them there was no
danger, and they started ,tor the opRo-
site shore.
When they rcachod the middle of
the river, the boat tipped and dipped
water. ]Lodusca wis frightened and
jumrel upon the edge of the b at /,
While Alice sprang upon fhe back OF
Oscar Lyons, and the. sllifi' caps.zed.
Alice Still .clung to the Back of Oscar,
and lie Swan for Dodd's Island, about
forty rods below, which he reached in
safety, though quite exhausted, while
Alice, through fright, exhaustion aud
strangulltion, was barely alive when
dragged ashore.

Retroh ohment and Reform !

The Columbus correspondent of the
Enquirer, thus brands with falschood,
Gov. Hays charges of dXtrlvaoance
against the Democratic Legislature .
We commend the facts herein contain
cd to the attention Of the tax payer,
regardless of political opinions !:
The Democratic Legislature elected
in 1867 appropriated 81 ,030, ,S0l %
less of the peoples money than did the
Republican Legislature elected two
years before, notwithstanding the fact
that the Democratic Legislature pro
vidcd for paying the Morgan Raid
Claims amounting toncarly 5000, ,o0n,
and judgment obtained in the Sup
prcmc Court against the State for
nearly 100000, AMI for rebuilding
the Central I.unatic and for building
IL new Blind Asylum, and establishing
Il Reform School for Girls. What
ever Republican editors and Rcpub-
lican stumpersz may aver to the CON
trary, the people of Ohio will recogn-
ize the Democratic Legislature as hay
ing been Il rctrcnchmcnts and reform
Legislature. Saving more than one
million of dollars to the State in two
years entities it to that recognition,
and to the highest need of praise
