:. WHY is he not here 2n said Horteuse


Because he trusts us. Never will deceive
him. would rather die. 1t will surely kill
me-"
As Emile uttered these words their eyes met,
and they felt, as it were, electric shock, in
that one glance. Death appeared to be the only
place of refuge open to them, as place of rest
and expiation.
| Hortense was the first to speak, and resuming
the thoughts that had accumulated in that short
| time, and said
Yes, it is better to die than to live thus, and
to think Of"
She was about to pronounce Pauls name, but
stopped.
Emile took her hand in his, and looking
steadily at the young girls eyes, as if to read
her most secret thoughts, said earnestly:
Z" Have you the courage to die2'
| Hortense arose calmly and answered: eyes,
at once"
And falling into each others arms, they
| silently and tervently embraced. Early on the
next day the letter-carrier brought registered
letter directed to Emile and bearing the postmark
from s.: Petersburg. He rang the bell knocked
at the door, and not receiving an answer, con-
cluded that Emile had gone out, aud was about
| to withdraw, when one of the neighbors told him
that Emile was in. They rang the bell again
and again, but still no answer came. The por-
ter being questioned, related that the previous
evening Emile had gone out to buy some char
having seen Hortense looking out OF the window
and crying bitterly. 1t began now to be whis-
pered that tragedy had taken place in the
house, and word was sent to the nearest police
station. On the arrival of the proper author-
ties, the door of Emiles room was broken open,
and their worst fears were realized. -
| Hortense was stretched on the bed, Emilebn
a sofa, both apparently dead Medical assist
ance was soon on the spot, but alas it was too
late to save poor Emile. He was dead. Hor-
tense, after long and strenuous efforts of the
doctors, revived, and was pronounced out of
danger.
Before leaving her, the magistrate who had
presided at The inquest held over Emile, opened
the letter which had just arrived. 1t read as
| follows
Ny Dear HHow:-I wish You very happy new year. and
also to your little wife. say your little wife for
stupid suppose that you waited for my
permission to love Hortense. willingly forgive you both,

On hearing the contents of this letter, Ilor-
tense took it from the magistrates hands, and
running to the sofa, held it up before the inani-
mate form of Emile, excamng
"This is our happy new year amt it good

A CURIOUS lawsuit, which has been in litiga-
ton for two centuries and a half has just been
finished in Morava The point at issue was the
right of way for driving cattle asserted by the
community of Nicklowitz Oberland, claimed by
the community of -Wisernitz. The first
transaction in the case is dated the year 1913
then follow judgements in 1880, 1890 and so on
up to 1869. A few weeks ago a commission
was appointed by the district court of Omutz to
proceed to Nicklowitz and there the dispute
was finally settled by compromise. How much
this suit has cost the two communities is best
known by the contending parties The contest
has borne something of a racial character for
Wsterntz is Salvonic, and Nicklowitz
has German population.

A FRENoHMAN's REVENGE on HIS WIFE.-Par-
isian journals relate that after every court ball
at the Tulerics, the magnfcently uniformed
Cent Gardes, upon divesting themselves of their
high boots, always find billet dou1 in them.
The Independence Betge relates the following an
ecdote in regard to this:
One of the invited guests had caught his wife
in the act of delivering tender epistle to one of
the gala soldiers. The husband wished to
venge himself upon her, and did so in Il highly
ingenious manner. On the day after the court
ball, he was seated with his wife at the table,
when suddenly the door bell rung very vlo-
ently. A servant entered the room and said,
" There is Mt the door soldier who desires to
see Madame" The lady turned very pale, but
the husband seemed not to pay the slightest at
tention to it. Next day the same scene took
place at the dinner table, and the servant APP
peared again, saying, There is at the door II
soldier asking for Madame --." {" Is it the
same who was there yesterdayW '' No" -
am not Mt home" On the following days the
same scene re-enacted. Finally the tor
mented wife could not stand it any longer, and
so she said to her husband, 81 am the victim OF
n poor joke. Show these men the door"
I" Madame" replied the husband, " sent those
persons myself. You wished for tete-a-tete
with soldier; fulfill your wish, and procure
you such one every day. We have eight hun
dred thousand men in arms; so you may have
visits from soldiers for two hundred and twenty

CUpID AMONG THE SHAKGHs-AN LLoPEMENr
AND WEDDING.-Great consternation was ere
ated on Thursday in the usually peaceful village
of Rose Hill, where our Shaker friends pursue
their happy avocations. Among the denizens of
this prosperous community were young man
by the name OF John Boyd and maiden called
Sarah McCod and it seems that under their
quiet and apparently cool exterior they cher
ished an uushakerike attachment for each other,
and on Thursday, to the horror Of the brother
hood, they eloped. They went to the town Of
Nicholasvile and, having put up at the Veranda
hotel, called in Rev. Mr.. Hunt were united in
the holy bonds of matrimony before numerous
company. AS they stood before the reverend
divine, he with broadbrm in hand, and with the
long blue home-spun coat peculiar to the broth
erhood from which he had fed, and she " in
simplest habit clad, " they were not an uninter
esting couple. Even her horrible costume, as
the female spectators regarded it, could not dis
guise the beauty of the bride, for she was fresh
and fair, and the groom was as happy as man
could be.-Leriagton (Ky.) Statesman.

What senator salisbury Thinks About TIA
"Nigger" Vote.
A Kent county correspondent of the Whining

Kent county correspondent of the Whining
ton (Del.) Commercial writes as follows:
About six weeks ago, when it became appar-
ent that the fifteenth amendment was sure to be
adopted, "A committee of Democrats went on to
Washington for the purpose of consulting with
Senator salisbury as to the best course to be
pursued by their party in order to secure por-
tion of the colored vote. On visiting the Sena-
tor at his rooms, they found him, to speak
plainly, far from sober They stated, however,
the object of their visit to be desire to con-
suit him as to the best policy of the party, in
view fthe adoption of the fifteenth amendment,
in order to win portion of the colored vote.
The Senator heard them attentively, and when
through, bluntly replied;
" We can't get the Niger pot9. The time be-
tween this and the election is too short to pull
the wool over their eyes. They have got just as
much sense about voting as you or | have, and
it's no use talking. I've lived among them all
my life-was raised with them--and used to own
en- and | tell you they have got too much
sense to vote with us next fall. They Wont do
n.
At these awful words the committee, who had
been growing by degrees paer and paler, turn
ing from the ruby red of corn whisky to the
mud color of their native swamps fairly dropped
their elongated jaws upon their breast.
" But, they said, what shall we do2 The
radicals will hold the power, with all the mig
gers voting, and they'll elect all their officers.
Good Lord What will become of our places
that we now have, and those wantl The
id Black Republicans will wipe us out like IL

and our Senator, and our Legislature, and our
Governor, and"
Here the Senator cut in:
"The h-ll they will You fellows amt got
sense enough to set up campaign. You'd bet

During his address the dropping committee
had revived somewhat, but still they seemed
tritle doubtful.
"Don't be alarmed" said Willard. "Go

The committee had now regained color They
took something. Their courage rose. They
shook the Spartan Senator &" good bye,' and de-
parted while, as they turned away, Willard
shouted through the closed door:

BoxING CHILDREN EARS. = A physiological
journal condems the practice of boxing children's s
ears. We had supposed, in this advanced age
of civilization, that such barbarious punishments
were only remembered as relics of the darker
ages. But it appears that the practice in sufli-
cently common in some sections of the country
to call forth decided remonstrance. Besides
being brutal method of punishment, it is
dangerous The passage Of the ear is closed by
thin membrane, especially adapted to be infu-
enced by every impulse of the air, and with
nothing but the air to support it internally. II
any one designed to break overthrash the
membrane he could scarcely devise more enec-
tive means than to bring the hand suddenly and
forcibly down upon the passage of the ear, thus
driving the air violently before it, with no pos
sibiity for its escape but by the membrane Civ
ing way. Many children are made deaf in this
way.

WASN'T HIS FoaTE-A few days ago, very
starchily dressed individual c0led at an out-of-
the-way shop on Howard street, New Orleans,
over which swung the sign of DR.. Jetfries. :" Is
the doctor in?' he inquired of delapidated
darkey who answered his summons.
{" lie am dat sir" was the smiling rejoinder.
"Tell him have symptoms of smallpox and
| wish to consult him"
The whites of the darkey's eyes grew intense,
and his dusky complexion assumed rapidly
creamp hue. Golly, boss, what you say?"
{" Tell the doctor I'm sick with the smallpox,
and wish to see him"
The astonished African gave a wild leap, dOr-
ted through an inner door samming it in the
visitors face, and cried out, Leave dis house

"Golly, boss; Use the doctor, but ain't good

WeekIy Grinity yaurnal,
Gone Below.

There's beautiful face in the silent air,
Which follows me ever and near
With smiling eyes and amber hair,
With voiceless lips, yet with breath of prayer,
That feel, but cannot hear.
The dimpled hand, and ringlets of gold,
Lie low in a marble sleep;
stretch my arms for the clasp of old,
But the empty air is strangely cold,
And my vigil alone keep.
There's a sinless brow with a radient crown
And cross laid down in the dust;
There's a smile where never n shade comes now
And tears no more from those dear eyes flow,
So sweet in their innocent trust.
All, well, and summer is coming again,
Singing her same old song;
But, oh ii sounds like Sob of pain,
As ii floats in the sunshine and the rain,
Ger hearts of the worlds great throng.
There's beautiful region above the skies,
And long to reach its shore,
For know shall find my treasure there,
The laughing eyes and amber hair,
OF the loved one gone before.

water, Wyoming Territory, tells n story of his
experience on his arrival at the mines in the
mountains; II was nearly dark as he alighted
from the stage at hotel. AS he entered the
public room he was, of course, marked at once
as a new conner. He had scarcely seated him
self comfortably when at amable gentleman ap-
preached him, and, with evident intention of
doing the stranger favor, quietly asked if, as
he had just arrived. he did not want " Job.
OF course, money was the object of our friends
visit to the mountains and he at once responded
in the affirmative. He would be very much
obliged indeed, if he could be put in the way of

and ntimated his willingness to accept the ap.
pointment. Just then an idea struck him
" BY the way" said he, "h how happens there to
be vacancy in the Office of Deputy Sheriff ~
"Wel, you see, stranger" said the amiable
gentleman, :" our Deputy died last night"
"Ab indeed how happened itY'

The European situation has not
changed in any great degree since our
last issue. The Russian Question is not
fully settled. kilograms from London
inform as that the English cabinet j. di
vided in opinion in regard to the difficul.
ty with Russia. Discussions have also
arisen between the Queen and the Csbi.
net, which threatens to be attended with
serious consequences.
1t is announced that Paris is stiII
confident OF its ability to resist the enc.
ny. There is reported to oe Subsistence
enough in the city to last ten weeks,
bread for ten months, and liquors for a
year. The French are strengthening the
defences Of the city by erecting addition
81 Notifications on all sides.
1t is said that Russia has fire arm
superior to any rife in existence. Per-
haps the Gar wants to stir up another
war just TO try his new gun. This would
certainly be better reason than Napo'
leon can give for the present war.
