A F1oRENcE nobleman recently receiv

A nobIeman recently received
a letter, in which he was threatened with
death unless he laid $4,000 forms the next
day in one of the city fountains. The
nobleman at once took the letter to the
police authorities, and then laid the de-
manded money in the appointed fountain.
The next day a finely dressed young man
cautiously approached the fountain, and
was taking the package of money from it,
when suddenly he found himself in the
hands of the police, who had been watching
for him. The prettiest part of the story is
that the prisoner was found to be a son of
one of the n~obleman's best friends, and the
last scion of an illustrious patricisn family.
All efforts to have him released have as yet
proved unavailing.

An OLD LITERARY SoANDAL-It is won
derful to observe how old literary scandals
are revived. In many newspapers we have
lately noticed a paragraph accusing Coler-
idge of pilfering ''the best part of his Hymn
TO Mont Blanc from a poem by Friederika
Brun," a writer in Dwights Journal of
Music having resuscitated the story. We
thought that it was settled, for good and
all, thirty years ago, that a small portion
of the Hymn was translated from a very
short poem by Mrs. Brun. The obligation.
whatever it might be, was acknowledged
by the editors of Coleridge's remains as
fully as possible; and the appropriation
was with perfect justice referred to those
careless literary habits which, upon an
other occasion, led Coleridge to put into
his translation of a play of Schiller's some
very beautiful lines of mis- own. With his
matchless wealth of intellect, it must have
been perfectly impossible for Coleridge to
pilfer merely for the sake of pilfering.

To the Nervous.

The natural result of exhaustion of strength
by excessive labor or action is feeling oi
weakness, dullness, heayiness, WEAKNESS,
langor of body or mind, etc. Persons of q
weak constitution, or whose habits are seden-
tsry, frequently complain of this relaxed con-
dition of the vital energies; and when per-
sons Of q nervous temperament are thus weak
ened and -debilitated, disease inevitably fol-
lows, unless it is at once checked and over
come. All who suffer from these causes
alike require remedy which will strengthen
the system without exciting it, and awake a
feeling of true enjoyment, so that life may
become source of pleasure. MISHLER'S
HERB BITTERS has won its way into the
confidence of thousands of this class of per-
sens, who warmly endorse it as the best in
vigorating agent, and the most potent and
genial of all tonics and alternatives fol-
