A Matrimonial Incident in the Prussian
Campaign.

The following story is told by 8
correspondent of the London Daily
Ne,Ds:
"a young and thriving merchant
of Saar Louis was to have been
married at Saar Louis to a young
lady from Schleiz on the 18th Of
July. On that morning came the
telegraphic order of mobilization,
The train carried off the bridegroom
quarter of an hour before that
fixed for the marriage. He, like
thousands of other men of an equal
ly good position in life, took his
place as a private in his regiment
the Fortieth Hohenzollerns-and
cheerfully arranged with his bride
that the marriage should take place
as soon as his battalion reached
Saarbruck. He would then go off to
the war and she would return, as
his wife, to her home. The bride
came ON the day named with her
brother to Saarbruck. had the
pleasure Of walking up with them
in the afternoon to watch the battal-
ion in which the bridegroom was
to appear and pass from the high
road into the bivouac field. The
bridegroom, who was there in the
thick of the helmeted stream, ran
from the ranks and kissed his bride
with German fervor. The men
marching past looked at them with
sympathetic admiration, but with
no sign of wonder, much less of
coarse derision. Then the bride
ran on the place he had left, and
then went to an officer and begged
a few hours leave for her bride
groom, that they might be married.
The officer, of course, was only too
glad to listen to such arequest from
the lips of such an applicant, and
escorted the bride to the colonel of
the regiment, from whom leave had
to be obtained. We saw the bride,
with dark eyes more expressive than
ever, and shadow of apprehension
over her broad forehead-not too
German for perfect beauty-repeat-
ing her request to the colonel, and
winning from his lips of discipline
the gentlest answer. The bride
groom was sent off on leave, and
the marriage was fixed to take place
on the following day.

She rose, she turned, she flung
herself into his open arms, and, in
the hour that followed, tears were
shed and words were spoken that
had long been holding themselves
in wait in the hiding places of Sc
cret grief.
So, with the brief history of the
first married years of two welded
lives recited, let US leave his recon-
ciled husband and wife standing up
on the brink of a new, yet shadowed
existence, in which the voices OF
hope and love, growing daily toward
perfection, blended with the memory
of sad music pealing from beneath
little graves green grass.

THE LITTLE HOUSEWIFE.

o little housewife, clean and spruce,
Thy use one heart divines;
A rosy apple full Of juice
And polished-till it shinesl
Atidy, tripping. tender thing,
A foe to lazy litters;
A household angel tidying
Till all around thee glitters!
To see thee in thy loveliness,
So prudish and so chaste,
No speck upon the cotton dress,
Girdling around thy waist;
Thy ankle peeping, white as snow,
They tucked-up kirtle under;
What shining dishes, row on row,
Behind thee, stare and wonder.
While round thy door the millions call,
While the great markets fill,
Though public sorrow strike us all,
Singing, thou workest still;
Yea, all thy care and all thy lot
Is ever sweet and willing,
To keep ones little household spot
As clean as q new shilling.
The crimson kitchen freight dips
Thy cheeks until they grow;
The white -four makes thy finger-tips
Like rosebuds dropt in snow;
When all thy little gentle heart
Flutters in exultation
To compass in an apple tart,
Thy noblest aspiration.
o housewife, may thy modest worth
Keep ever fresh from wrong;
Blest be the house and bright the hearth,
Thou blessest all day long!
And nightly may thy sleep be sound,
While o'er thee, softly, Silly,
The curtains close like leaves around
The hushed heart of the lily.

SOWING AND REAPING.

"And he that reapeth receiveth wages, al
that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoic,
together" John iv. IS.
Why dost thou toll, o man,
For earth's deceitful joys;
And seek through all life's narrow span,
Her transitory toysr
Rise, search thy secret soul;
What labor waits thee there,
Toknow thyself, the Spirits power,
Invoke with earnest prayer.
Then lift thine eyes; behold.
The fields all whitening stand,
The harvest of the Lord awaits,
The faithful reaper's hand.
And though the sun may glow,
With noontide's burning heat,
And thou may'st tread the thorny ground,
With worn and weary feet. ..
Thy wages are as sure,
As Gods unchanging word,
That life eternal shall be given
To those who serve the Lord.
And when the heavens shall fade,
And all the saints shall stand,
Clothed in the Savior's righteousness,
With joy at his right hand.
If mid their crowns of light,
Bright stars shall thickly shine,
Theirs be the ecstatic songs of praise,
The power and glory thine.

We are apt to see the clouds
that hang over us, forgetting the
clear, blue sky beyond them.
Many friends are like the
shadow which follows you only
while the sun shines.

Prussians are picking their feath-

WESTERN PLAcER-We paid a short visit
to Lincoln and that portion of the county on
Saturday and Sunday last, and must say
we found times fully as lively as we expect
ed, considering the price of staple products
Many of the farmers are holding their grain
for better prices, though there is good deal
of wheat being brought in and disposed of al
ruling rates Lincoln was full of teams on
Saturday, and bore every appearance of be-
ing a substantial and heavy business town,
which it is. The country is gradually filling
up with permanent and prosperous popula-
ton, while both improved and unimproved
land is increasing in value and demand.
A good Touring mill would be of great ad-
vantage to Lincoln and surrounding country,
and it is matter of surprise that some one
who understands the business and commands
the means has not already supplied this
want.

RICH DEvELoPMENr.--Withina few days a
Mr.. Graves purchased an interest from Mr. Bray
in the old Peterman & Co., claims just South
west of Baltimore ravine, about mile from here
and went to work on the ledge. On about We'd
nesday last Graves struck some exceeding rich
quartz, which almost alarmed him, and has rath-
er walked up our town. A gentleman who visit
ed the claim tells us that this is not rich spot,
but that the ledge has been opened on the sur
face for some fifty feet and shows equally rich
for the whole distance Our informant says that
with u hand-mortar he could take out big money
1t any point on the ledge, SO far as opened
Some of the quartz has been brought to town
which, it is believed, would yield fully so to the
pound. There is but three interests in the claim
and it is very near, if not on the 10th Section,
which has been bought and patented to the va
fious parties having improvements on it. This
S briefly what we could gather of the matter
Just before going to press.

HELD TO ANswER.--A d fficulty occurred at Bald
Hill on Saturday last between A. o. Bell and
man named Raglan about quartz claim. The
particulars of the quarrel we do not know, but
learn that Bell attempted to shoot Raglan with
revolver but was caught by his (Bells) wife and
kept from getting am though the revolver was
discharged four or five times while Raglan was
retreating. Bell then got a Henry rifle and dis
charged it two or three times at Raglan after he
had got away two or three hundred yards, but
without effect Bell has since been arrested and
bound over in 81, 200 bonds to appear before the
next Grand Jury, by Judge Spear. We did not
hear the testimony in the examination, but tn
above is the substance of the rumors, and as thC
matter is to undergo strict judicial criminal in
vestigation we will not attempt further details nj
present.

belief but when The whole matter was inyestige-
ted before the Grand Jury, last week there was

MoRE QUARTZ MrLLs.-A ten-stamp quartz
mill passed through Auburn yesterday bound for
Shipley ravine some five miles west of here 1t
was loaded on Mike HoffInan's big teams and
came from Brushy Canyon, near Forest Hi,

1t is the Mill built by ex-Speaker Sears of Ne
vada county, and he has now given the mill to
MI McFadden for one-haf of his quart claim
on Shipley ravine where it is to be put up, and
the mill and ledge to be the joint property OF
