OuTrAGHoUs.-A strange story was in

domestic in the family of n well-known
merchant. On Saturday Sarah received
word from her sister that she had hoard
from a relative, and if she (Sarah)
would call she could read the letter.
She went to the house, was pleased to
find her sister DESTROYS Of "making up"
and they became quite sociable. A
child Of the married sister was lying i'll
at the time, and its mother asked Sarah
to take it awhile. She did so-fondled
and kissed it. The mother then in
formed her in o spirit Of great grqtifca-
ton, that the child had the smallpox !
Convinced that she was the victim Of q
diabolical trick, Sarah left the house,
went to that OF her employer, and in
formed the lady Of the house of the cir

LWmindry says:
Carrie Feister, q little daughter oil
| Mr.. Reuben Feister, Of this borough,
| when but seven months old, swallowed
a diaper pin. No one was present when
| she swallowed it, but the fact that the
pin was missing and the child was seized
with choking spells, and for twelve
hours remained in n critical condition,
left no doubt on tho minds of the fami-
ly rs to what had become of the pin.
She, however, partially recovered at the
time, but from that time until the pres
emit her health has been delicate. At
intervals she has been quite sick, cough
ing and throwing up considerable guam
titles Of corruption. During the past
summer it was thought the child had
gone into consumption, and was so i'll
that her recovery was regarded as next
10 impossible. She rallied again, how
ever, and although far from well, WAS
able to be about. On last Sunday week,
December 9th, she was seized with a
violent fit of coughing, which lasted for
some time. Finally, she suddenly put
her fingers into her mouth and drew
forth the missing pin. The pin is about
two inches in length, with n head i've
eighths of an inch long, and fv%e.eighths
of au inch in circumference. tits black

covered with corruption. Carrie is now
nearly nine years old, so that this pin

is belicved) about s years and 4 months

able. We are glad to add that since its
removal her health has been materially
improved. She is II bright and interest
ing little girl, and it is to be hoped that
after so much suffering che may soon be
fully restored to health.

THE EAST AND II WEsr.-We re-
produce these sentences from IN article
recently published in the Chicago 7ri-
bune:
eff il is true that tho West has got
about everything clse,' the reason is she
is possessed of the best qualified men
for various high Offices. The West has
got into the habit Of producing first
class men for civil ms well rs military
employment. The brains and the en-
t~srprise Of the East are chiefly absorbed
in mquey-gctting, jobbing, and gam
bling in Wall street.. During tho war the
East was nepsr able TO pash the rebels OUT of
sight of tho Potomac, while. the West
conquered them in twelve States. The
intellect of the East was too much en-
crossed in filing Government contracts,
increasing the tariff, and other gainful
pursuits, to develop a high order Of mil
itary talent or craftsmanship and they
should not now complain if the West
oyershadows them in ability for public
affairs, as well as in martial renown."

WILLIAM CuMBAcH is to replace

comparatively a young man for the

n he does not bring to that body so
wide a reputation for ability as Mr.. Hen
