A Thrilling Incident.

When General Scott commanded the ar.
my in Mexico, it became necessary to ex.
plore a mountain that lay between him
and the enemy's camp. 1t was one Of
those lofty peaks whose summit cleft the
clouds, and reached the regions of eternal
snow. The sides precipitous, and clad in
a tangled web of brushwood and rugged
rocks, which made the ascent seem peril
Gus, if not impossible. There was some
difficulty, therefore, in finding an officer
bold enough to undertake the task. At
last young lieutenant stepped forward
aud offered his services, He was accep-
ted. and having selected a small company
of men set out for tho mountain. They
found it more unpromising than even their
fears forboded. There was no sign Of a
path, no trace to show that human foot
step had trod the the toilsome ascent
They used both hands and feet with dill
gence, swinging themselves up by the un
dergrowth, climbing over rugged rocks or
making toilsome journey around them,
till one after another gave up, and deter
mined to make the best of his way back
Before half of the ascent was accomplish
ed the young leader was left alone Most
men would have given up in utter des-
pair. Not SO the young lieutenant. There
was a heroic fire in his breast not to be
quenched by difficulties, however arduous.
He paused long enough to take breath,

Till he stands painting on the icy summit
There was moments pause Of exultation
as he saw beneath his feet the clouds that

The Bridal wine.Cup.

In 1851 there lived in small town in
the State of New York the deacon Of a
certain Christian church, who was noted
for his liberal qualities, who was in the
habit of giving large wine suppers among
his brotherhood of the church, and as a
general thing, the guests would return
home rather more than slightly inebri-
ated; or rather more intoxicated than
they would have been if they had staid
at home and enjoyed the pleasure Of their
own families, and saved themselves the
trouble of carrying the big head upon
their own shoulders on the following day
as was the case. The scene which l
wish to represent was one Of a similar
kind.
Upon a Christmas day Of Silt was
the marriage of the only daughter Of the
deacon-it was night of joy and glee.
After the marriage had been performed,
the bottles of wine had been brought
forth all present filed their goblets full
of the poisonous nectar, except one who
stood like marble statue. 1t was the
bride while the words were spoken from
one eff the crowd, "Pledge with wine.
"Pledge with wine," cried the young and
thoughtless Harvey Wood pledge with
wine," ran through the crowd.
The beautiful bride grew pale; the
decisive hour had come. She pressed
her white hands together, and the leaves
of her bridal wreath trembled on her
pure brow her breath came quicker, and
her heart beat wilder. "Yes. Marion,
lay aside your ssruples for this once"
said the deacon, in a low tone, going
toward his daughter "the company ex.
pect it; do not SO infringe upon the rules
Of etiquette; in your own home act as
you please, but in mine, for this once
please me-"
Every eye was turned toward the bride,
for Marion's principles were well known.
Henry had been convivialist, but Of late

Robbers Poisoned while after Public
Funds.


The Rome (Ga.) Commercial tells the
following story "Rumor brings us de-
tails of horrible tragedy that is said to
have occurred in St. Clair county, Ala.
The rumor runs that the tax collector of
St. Clair had got together large amount
of taxes and given them to his wife to
keep, remarking as he did SO that he was
compelled to take long trip that would
necessitate his absence from home for
three or four days. He left and she hid
the money. About ten O'Clock that night
a party of men, wearing DISCUSSES, broke
in upon the lonely woman and demanded
the tax money. She refused to give it
up or tell where it was. After attempt
ing in vain to force her to tell the hiding
place of the treasure, they searched for it
and found it. After possessing themselves
Of the money they ordered her to get
some supper. While she was busying
herself in this forced, she conceived the
idea of poisoning them, and thus preserv-
ing at once the money and her husbands s
honor. She deftly slipped some arsenic
in the coffee she was mixing. They drank
heartily, and fell dead shortly afterward.
She stripped their DISCUSSES and found
that two of the villins were strangers, but
that the third was her husband, who had
taken this means of stealing the taxes of
the people, The story is almost too hor-
rible for credence, but our informants
were confident that the facts were as sta,
ted by them.

Taking it for granted that the decar-
alton of the sentiment of love is a privi.
lege men, founded on nature and sane.
toned by custom, the various modes of
making their declaration and Of accepting
or refusing it by the women, were we
able to give perfect account of it, would
make one of the most entertaining and
curious parts Of human history, and
equally furnish matter Of speculation for
the intelligent lady and the philosopher
1t is taken as a general rule, that the
declaration Of love is the peculiar privi-
lcge of the men; but, as all general rules
are liable to exception, there are lso ex-
ceptons to this. An Israeltish widow
had, by law, the power Of claiming the
brother of her deceased husband in
which case the privilege of the male was
transferred to the female, that of the fe.
male was likewise transferred to the male ;
he had the power of refusing; the re-
fusal, however, was attended with some
very mortifyiug circumstances the WON.
an he had thus slightcd was to come unto
him in the presence of the elders of the
city, and to loose the shoe from his foot
and spit in his face.
To man, by nature bold and intrepid,
and possessed with unlimited power of
asking refusal was of but little conse.
quence; but to women, more timid and
modest, and whose power of asking was
limited to the brethren of her deceased
husband, it was not only an affront, but
real injury, as every one would there.
fore despise the woman, so that she
would have bu. little chance of future
husband hence, perhaps, it was thought
necessary to fix some public stigma on
the person who was so ungallant as not
to comply with the addresses of woman.
A custom somewhat similar to this
remains at present among some Of the In
dian tribes, particularly the Hurons and
lroquois. When the wife dies, the hus-
band is to marry the sister, or in her
stead, the woman whom the family of
the deceased wife may choose for him A
widow is also obliged to marry one of the
deceased husband.

A RELreIoUsLY MAD FAMILY.-Kala-
mazoo, Mich, is much excited over the
the doings of family, consisting of John
Heisler, wife and five children, who
have all become monomaniacs on the SUBJ
ject of religion. They have lately taken
house in remote part of the village
and when found their dwelling was pro-
fusely ornamented with crosses, to which
they paid frequent devotion. Their chief
OBJECT of devotion was, however,-a poor,
little, deformed daugtcr, who was placed
daily on the house-top, while all the rest
Of the family would kneel and worship
her with various mystic ceremonies. Oc.
casionally the whole party would proceed
into the adjacent fields and pray aloud
interspersing their supplications with
fierce howls. After while the family
ceased to work, confning their activity
to prayers and other corresponding ex.
ercises. 1t presently seemed as il
the poor, deluded people were or
the point of starvation, and their charta.
BILE neighbors then resorted to various de-
vices to supply them with food. Finally
it was resolved to arrest the father
Heisler, and put him in the asylum. lie
remained there for some weeks. After 9
space he was permitted to come and g
to the institution at pleasure In little
while he failed to return. At the same
time the frenzy of the whole family tool
new phase, and they refused to eat L
became evident that they would soon al
die of starvation, and this the village au
thorities properly determined to prevent
Anticipating interference, Heisler, barred
his doors and windows, and, provided
with clubs and loaded guns, awaited thu
onset. An entrance was effected by fore,
at last, and, fortunately, without blood
shed. A terrible picture of suffering wa
presented, the poor people looking NOR,
like famished beasts than human beings
AT first they unanimously refused t.
swallow food but on repeated persuasion
some of them consented to eat, provide,
whatever was given them should be con
secrated in the name of the Father, tn
Son, and the Holy Ghost. Others persist
ed in refusal and were made to TAX
sustenance by force. 1t was though
best to separate the family. The result
so far as heard, of appears to have bee
favorable in the case of the wife and tw
of the children. The man has since bee
tried before a jury on the charge @
vagrancy, and sentenced to year in tn
house Of correction. He is still obstinat
in declining food. it is said but, accord
ing to local journal, "he must eat now
or 60 to glory on an empty stomach"

A newspaper writer, speaking of Hum
phrey Marshall, says he now weighs not
far from 400 pounds, and that notwith-
standing his enormous weight, he is a
very hard worker, and able to endure
more hours of labor than any man of his
acquaintance. The secret of his endur-
ance is explained by the statement that
Marshall refreshes himself every few
minutes by little maps during which he
loses nothing of what is going on, though
seeming wholly unconscious. In trying
an arduous case in court, he will be
asleep half the time, yet his senses appear
constantly awake, and ne fact of interest
to his client seems to escape his atten-
ton.
Buffalo has three brothers who live in
three houses exactly alike, and standing

best instances We know Of true fraternity.

Anecdote Of Beecher and Chaplin.

Speaking of churches reminds me Of
an anecdote of Henry Ward Beecher
and DR.. Chaplin. During their summer
vacation, they were travelling a short stage
route together, and according to their
wont-and l may say the wont of all good
men on such occasions-rode upon the
outside, passing their time most agreeably
in general conversation and admiring the
scenery. AT one of the stopping places
on the route, countryman asked them
if they could make room for him up there
which they cheerfully did. Soon after
taking his seat, Mr.. Beecher entered in.
to conversation with him. and finding that
he had recently returned from visit to
New York, and to use his own expression
had seen enough of it, asked him if he
stopped over Sunday and went to meet.
