Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1869-04-11

Twenty years ago young man who
had paid attentions to bright, sweet
girl for long time without making any
thing that was even a second eoasin to
a proposal, was startled one evening By
the question, Robert do you want to
marry me ?" He tried to evade the
point by asking why she put such a
question to him. Because, if you do
not want to marry me you must stop
coming to see me. No moeking bird
around the red breasts nest, you know"
Robert took the hint, and with a cool
good night, walked home. What should
he care for a girl so rude as that Good
company as her elsewhere. He would
join the club next day. He tried to
sleep, but couldn't He didn't quite
like the turn things had taken. The
figure plagued him. If he was a mock
ing-bird, who was the red breast that he
was keeping away from such a fitting
partner? At any rate, one thing is
certain, Edna is smart as she IS pretty,
he said to himself, :. aud she means bust
ness. The next morning Robert went
to the counting room, when presently
Joe Mason came in and said, tell you
what it is, Bob, you were lucky in keep
ing out of the club. | have just paid
another assessment of fifty dollars, and,
what is worse, | meet such expensive
friends there, that it costs more than l
can earn to keep it up" / was just
thinking of joining the club, said
Robert. 1t will be a cool FIVE hun
dred year out of pocket, and precious
little satisfaction and no home feeling
at that, said his friend.
Robert hummed a tune when left to
himself 1t was long day. Business
had dragged. Everybody was pre-oeeu-
pied, hurried, cross. Things went wrong.
He was glad to go home, only it WASH t
home. He took book, but found him
self trying to read the Goals in the CRATE
and figures on the wall instead of the
page. He threw himself on the lounge,
but it was dreadfully dull. He stood it
for awhile, and then put on his hat and
walked down to the widow Cragie's.
He stepped up to the door as usual, but
Edna was engaged. He asked to have
her called. 1t seemed a month before
she came down. At last she appeared.
Rs.>sse from his seat and met her in
the middle of the room, and said, " Edna,
| have come here tonight on business.
l am tired of being your mOeking bird,
and want to be your red-breast will
you be my wife ?" When you say,
said Edna, her face sufused with
bushes. q Soon as l can make nest,
dearest" Robert replied. Il believe
both the red breasts join in building the
nest, said Edna, and [ want to do my
part. This was twenty years ago. To-
day, one of the handsome mansions in
one of our cities is the nest of welded
pair, whose life has been sweet as a
birds song, and whose hearts, like their
affections, are as young as ever. There
is a great deal more in putting a little
straightforward business at the begin
ming of life than is generally supposed

Adolphe Theirs, perhaps, never gave
more striking proofs of his extraordinary
capacities as a hard worker than on the
day when he delivered his great speech
against Haussmann, the Perfect Of the
Seine Department. lie rose on that
day at six in the morning, dictated to
his private secretary until twelve, inter
rupting himself in that arduous task
only at eight, to swallow cup of ehOeo-
late and eat four or Eve eggs. At noon
he ate a sandwich and drank a glass of
wine. and took half an hours walk At
two he went to the Corps Legislatif,
spoke there from a quarter to three until
half-past six, went from the Palais Bour-
bon directly to the Office Of the Journal
Ofieiel, to correct the proof-sheets of his
speech as it was set up, and remained
there, busily writing, reading and cor
recting until two in the morning. He
refreshed himself only with few cups
of tea, which were brought to hi 4 from
neighboring coffee-house. Next morn
ing he was again at an early hour on his
sofa, ready to dictate for many hours to
bis private secretary,

The bodies of two human beings
which we're recently found between the
walls of the Inquisitorial Convent Of
San Domingo, City of Mexico, were ex-
hibited to the members of the medical
profession and the press at the Mexican
parlors lately. The bodies are in' per-
iect state of preservation, and are sup
posed to be those of Christian martyr
and his child Authentic records in the
possession Of the exhibitors show that
these martyrs were assassinated by the
inquisitors in 1895.
