"Love's Blind they say"

An English divine, who has since risen
to eminence, owed his, marriage, and a
long and happy domestic life, cotem-
porary states, to a mere accident. He
had contracted an affection for lady Of
the neighborhood in which he preached,
but, through dread of refusal, could not
bring himself to the point Of direct
proposal. The more he thought Of it
the more he became dismayed at the pros
pect. He was not of that kind of men
who can quickly interpret woman's
feelings from her looks and manner, but
was overcome with fear that she should
never love him. He had almost resolved
TO abandon the field to bolder, if not
better man, when he suddenly took des-
perate resolution to know the worst. He
carefully prepared and sealed two letters,
each addressed to the lady; in one of
which he made an earnest proposal of
marriage, and in the other merely re-
IucStcu tHc iudH VI DOOk. S0HdklUS
them together in his hat, he called his
servant, and bade him take one and de-
liver it. (Which one?" asked the SER
want. Either" was the reply, and the
man took one at random and departed.
The minister threw the other into the
fire without examining it, and for the
next hour paced the floor of his study,
anxious and miserable He had resolv-
ed to abide by the event of this queer
proceeding, and that if the book came
with the servant, he would forever aban-
don all aspirations to the lady's hand.
At the end of that time the man return
ed with note, accepting his offer, and
inviting him to tea. The overjoyed
young man told his little experiment to
his betrothed over cup of tea that eve-
ming, and was soundly rated for his dull
ness in not comprehending the signal
of distress" which had been continually
displayed to him from time to time. But
some men are wonderfully stupid about
these matters.

Extraordinary Exodus Of Honey
s6sf9 Bees. aA


One of the most remarkable occurren-
ces that has ever come to our knowledge
was related to us yesterday. Mr.. James
Broil, farmer, who resides about seven
miles from the city on the river road,
has, for some time past, been engaged
extensively in raising honey bees, and
with almost unprecedented success. He
has lately rejoiced in as many as forty
five hives. A few mornings ago, how
ever, Mr.. Broil woke up to find his bees
non est. They had "lit out" between
two days, leaving no trace whatever Of
the point or region Of country to which
they had SO unceremoniously migrated.
There was not solitary bee left to keep
his lonely watch over the forty-fve hives.
As might be expected, Farmer Broil was
left in considerable of . dilemma, and
Immediately consulted all the authori-
ties at his command in relation to the
peculiar habits and freaks Of the bee
tribe. g..@ - .s
After reading through many volumes,
it occurred to him that some of his
neighbors might be able to explain the
why's and wherefores Of this bounty
jumping" move on the part Of his army
Of honey makers. He accordingly made
a "bee line" for the residence of his
nearest neighbor, to consult him on the
singular problem. To his utter surprise,
he ascertained that his friend, who is al
so beeist," had met with the same loss
in the same sudden manner, and was in
the same perplexity as to the cause
They at once resolved on examining the
hives and it revealed to them the fact
that each stand contained from sixty to
seventy-fve pounds of honey. The farm
ers in that region are all unable to ac-
count for this mysterious disappearance
Of their bees, and many theories have
been advanced, but up to this time the
problem remains unsolved. The opinion
of most of them is that the mildness of
the weather up to SO late season caused
this singular migration. LOUISVILLE Dem

SPEAKER CoLFAx's TEMPERANCE En-
TREATMENTS Col. Dom Piatt writes
this good story from Washington to the
Cincinnati Commercial: Speaker Col
fax indulges in little eating and no
drinking. He neither takes wine nor
proffers the poisoned bowl to his guests.
The Honorables Ballot and Bunkem
were guests at his table last winter, as
sisting at one of the elegant entertain
ments given in the shape of dinners to
members of Congress. As the dessert
appeared. after two hours eating, the
two honorahles suddenly remembered an
engagementat Senator Morgan's, and so
excused themselves. When once in the
street, said Bunkem to Ballot: !" Good
Lord, Ballot, let's go somewheres and
get drink am cold down to the
feet. IF Colfax would only warm his
water little; but ice-why he puts in
great Jumps. It's cruelty to beasts. >
Ballot suggested that they would find
something at Morgan's, as wine supper
was going on, given to the national COM
mittee. Arriving at the palatial resi-
dence Of the New York senator, the two
found the table covered with champagne
bottles. "Take away your thin pota-
tions, Morgan, cried Ballot, and let us
have something to drink" Brandy and
whisky were produced, and as Senator
Morgan watched his thirsty guests, he
remarked quietly: "Why, gentlemen,
you must have been dining with Mr.
| Speaker Colfax.''

SILENT MEN.-Washington never
made speech. In the zenith of his
fame he once attempted it, failed, and
gave it up confused and abashed. In
framing the Constitution of the United
States the labor was wholly performed
in committee Of the whole, of which Geo.
Washington was day after day the chair
man, but he made but two speeches dur
ing the convention, of a very few words
each. The convention, however, ac-
knowledged the master spirit, and histo-
rians affirm that had it not been for his
personal popularity and the thirty words
of his first speech, pronouncing it the
best that could be united upon, the Con-
stitution would have been rejected by the
people. Thomas Jefferson never made
a speech. He couldn't do it.

JENNY LIND AND THE BIRD--I re-
member hearing stage drivers story of
Jenny Lind when she was riding in the
counry. A bird of brilliant plumage
perched on tree near as they drove
slowly along, and trilled out such COM
plication of sweet notes as perfectly as
tonished her. The coach stopped, and
reaching out she gave one Of her finest
roulades. The beautiful creature arch
ed his head on one side and listened def
erentially; then, as if determined to ex-
eel his famous rival, raised his graceful
throat and sang song of ripping mel
ody that made Jenny rapturously clap
her hands in ecstacy, and quickly, as
though she were before severely criti-
cal audience in Castle Garden, delivered
some Tyrolean mountain strains that set
the echoes flying. PEE

The Fashionable Young Man.

Harper's Bazar, speaking in defence
of that sex which is SO often accused Of
extravaganza in dress, turns the tables
by describing the brother of the fashion
able young lady. 1t says:
OF course, he smokes, plays billiards,
and scorns teetotallers. With cigars at
quarter of dollar each, dozen a
day, for himself and friends is moder-
ate allowance-total three dollars a day.
With billiards at fifty cents a game, and
the accompanying liquors, he would not
be likely to spend less than FIVE dollars
every time he INDUCED in this preemi-
nently healthful exercise; and the
!. :" drinks" which cement modern friend
ship, at every chance meeting, will fill
UP the remainder OF the ten dollars per
diem expended in those innocent pleas
ures. Dress, dinners, fast horses, and
amusements, will certainly double this
sum, and supply any blanks in the first
calculation, making an expenditure Of
over seven thousand dollars per year for
our fashionable youth-an estimate by
no means over drawn. If, in addition,
he is addicted to betting, gambling, and
kindred vices, there is no limit to his
prodigality, any more than to the dia-
monds, laces, or camels hair shawls

THE JUICES sMIsTAKE.-A most anus
ing story is told of Judge B now
occupying high position in the Penn
sylvania state government. Travelling
some years since by rail to Harrisburg,
on blazing hot day, with some friends,
the iron horse had stopped to water, when
suddenly he drew his white handkerchief
from his pocket, and began waving it
vigorously in the air, at the same time
bobbing his head out of the window in
a very energetic manner.
"What are you about, judge?" asked
Mr.. @. without rising from his seat.
Why, don't you see yonder? There's
lady waving a white handkerchief, and
I'm returning the salute"
"Who is she, judge?" asked Mr.. O.,
as he lounged in one corner.
"Well, the fact is, | don't exactly
know; I'm quite near-sighted and can't
recognize her, but she is dressed in gray
silk, and stands yonder, under big ma
pie tree, near my friend John BIS house
Mr.. @. hobbled over TO the judges side
and gazed in the direction indicated, but
saw only that the judge had been ex-
changing salutes for ten minutes with an
iron-gray mare, whose long white tail, as
it raped away the flies, had been taken
by him for a white handkerchief, waved
by lady in gray silk dress.
The buttons that were subsequently
picked up in that car are said to have
been exceedingly numerous. The judge
didn't swear, but he changed the subject
to saw-miils, the only Ineligible portion
of which being the frequent repitition o
the word" DAM
