hope that this terrible disease will not as

papers and private letters inform us that
the spread, if any, is inlpcrceptible, and that
the panic which was at first very great, has
subsided, and persons are determined to look

prove true, and the great old city again re-

DEATH OF THE MAYOR OE STRAS.
3OURG.

A Bordeaux correspondent, under
date of March 4th, writes as follows:
Yesterday the last earthly remains
of poor NJ. kuss, Deputy from AL
SAGE and Mayor of Strasbourg, whose
untimely end caused such profound
sorrow here, were accompanied by
an immense procession to the Or
leans depot. to be from there trans
ported to his weeping family, who
are waiting with agonized hearts in
that patriotic old city Of Strasbourg
which he defended so gallantly and
Isioved so we'll
There is something extremely
mournful in the circumstances at
tending his death, not only because
he died far away from home among
strangers, but on account of the
dark and melancholy events which
accompanied it and of which it
made as it were part. Six months
ago he was a strong and healthy
man. but those who saw the weak,
trembling figure that left the cham Der
three days ago would have never sus-
pected that he it was whose steady
courage and untiring energy animat-
ed the people of Strasbourg, during
a siege whose terrOrs far exceeded
those Of Paris, to that heroic resis-
tance which has gained them the ad-
miratiOn of the world.
But sorrow and care. the horrors
of the war that has ravaGed his coun
try for months. the tyrannOus rule
of the Prussians, loss of property,
grief at destruction of his native
city. and. last of all, the cruel de-
sertiOn Of his country by that
France for whom h had sacrificed
everything, overcome and broke
down at last a strong but delicate
organization, and he died, as every
body says of a broken heart, breath
ing his last at l. o'clock at night,
on the very day the French people
basely voted away his country to the
Germans in exchange for dishonor
able peace.
As the shadows of midnight gath
cred around his dying bed, and a
thousand electric tongues were tell
ing the news of the surrender of
Alsace all over the world, and the
black pail of sorrow and wretched-
ness had sunk down upon France,
his troubled spirit entered the dark
valley of death, like the ghost of his
murdered country. passing away in
gloom and despair. Although sick
and feeble. he had made the long,
weary voyage from Strasbourg to
Bordeaux in the hope of being able
to do something for his unhappy
city. and when they told him that /
their prayers had been UnavailinS |
and that they were to be handed /
over. bound hand and foot, to the
Prussians. it was 900 much for him. |
and the broken frame gave way un-
der the stroke.
The funeral cortege was conducted |
by an immense thron@. Gambetta,

mourncrs. The National Guards. a
regiment of marines and half the
population Of Bordeaux made up the
procession, which, filing slowly
through the principal streets. was
nearly two hours reaching the depot.

The gifts Of love, or even those of
friendship. if they would evlnce good
taste. should he of little real value.
They are meant as tokens from heart
t. heart. and the eloquence should
not depend either on their costliness
or their rarity. A simple bow of
ribbon. a tress of hair, the broken
sixpence, or the faded bunch of vio-
lets. are often cherished from youth
to age and hung over with sighs and
tears Of regret. Such little tokens
keep green in the heart a loved mem
orv when blazing jewels or splendid
ornaments are thrust aside and for
gotten. The intrinsic merit Of a gift
often rObs it Of the delicate charm
which attaches to the simple memo
rial of affection. 1t needs no Ophella
to tell us that rich gifts wax poor
when giyers prove unkind, but the
simple Offering Of life's young day
charm Us long after the givers have
gone away from us in sorrow or IN
anger. They recall our own feelings
at the time Of their offering or recep-
ton. and lead us back to moments
that were full of blissful hopes that
have never vet died out of our lives.

A beautiful specimen of rose-tint-

to be the result of an experiment in
stituted by lady. Having swarm
of bees in a hive, with Il glass cover,
she noticed that after making two
small pieces of comb they ceased
work. She then began to feed them
with honey mixed with water, highly

More than a year ago, Mary III. Rog,

More than year ago, Mary II. Rogers,
a minister of the Society ofFriends, visited
the Iowa Penitentiary and preached to
the prisoners with fervor and power The
effect upon her auditors was very marked.
Two of them, John Walker and Richard
Allen, were so powerfully impressed that
the warden and keepers regarded them as
converted men. Subsequently, other Qua
kers visited the prison, and these two men
asked to be taken into the Society of
Friends as members. No other instance
OF such request was ever heard of; but
the Sociey, after careful inquiry, received
them. John Walkers sentence for five
years had nearly expired; Richard Allen
had seven years to serve. Richard was
recently ordered to make billiard cues.
He demonstrated with the officer, saying,
" cannot do it; gambling caused me to
be here; am willing to work, and do not
wilfully disobey the rules; but am con-
scientious in this thing" He was report
ed to the next highest officer, and was
threatened with punishment, but finally
the warden withdrew the order. Walkers
term expired soon after his admission to
the Quaker body, and the monthly meet
ing appointed committee to extend to
him a kind welcome, and secure to him
home and such advise and aid as his case
might require. He is doing well. Those
who are toiling for the Improvement of
public prisons, seeking to make them
agencies of reform as well as of punish
ment. will find encouragement in facts
like these. '

SPRoUTING PoTAToEs.-Sprouting the
white potatoe will advance the crop two
weeks. They should be cut so that about
two eyes are allowed to each piece, and
these should be planted in hot beds with
very thin covering of soil; or it is better
to plant in boxes and set these in hot-bed
so that after they are properly sprouted
they can be at once carried to the place of
planting. If the nights should be anyway
cold, protect with thin covering of straw
when the plants make their appearance
above ground. Some persons who want
a large quantity sprouted, cut the pota-
toes as desired, and spread them on boards
boxes or crates,in dark place, and when
sprouted, say from an inch to an inch and
a half, expose them to the light, moisten-
ing two or three times week with tepid
water. They should be planted out SO
that there is not more than two inches of
soil over the top of the sprouts German

An IMPERIAL VISITOR.

About week ago Mr.. Catacazy, the
Russian Ambassador, was informally noti-
fied from st. Petersburg that his, Imperial
Highness the Grand Duke Alexis proposed
sailing from Cronstadt about the middle
OF May in an imperial yacht. accompanied
by an escort OF four or five vessels of the
Roman Navy, and that he would probab-
ly reach New York early in the month of
June. This information was unofficiallv
communicated to the State Department at
Washington, and extensive arrangements
are already being perfected to extend to
the imperial guest of the great Republic
reception worthy of the United States of
America and Of the friendly power whose
illustrious representative it proposes to
honor -
The Diplomatic Corps and particularly
the Russian Legation, are busily engaged
preparing a programme of festivities.
which, in conjunction with those in course
of preparation by the United States Gov
ernment, together with the hospitalities
that will doubtless be freely offered by the
larger cities throughout the Union, will
combine to form succession of grand
ovations that will probably surpass in point
OF real magnifcence anything of the kind
this country has ever wtnessed
The Grand Duke Alexis is the third son
of the reigning Gar of Russia, Alexan-
der III. He was born on the I'd of January
1850, and is consequently little over 81
years of age. He is said to be strikingly
handsome, in fact he is considered very
like his illustrious grandfather, the late
Gar Nicholas, who, in his day, was not
only the grandest-looking sovereign, but
was called the handsomest man in Europe
Prince Alexis has been carefully educated
at the imperial. palace at st. Petersburg,
and is spoken of by his tutors as On apt
scholar. He is also represented as being
bright. intelligent young man, thorough
ly devoted to his profession as an officer
in the Russian navy, in which, it is said
his own abilities, even were he not of the
blood imperial, would have secured him
exalted rank, Notwithstanding his extreme
youth.
The imperial party will proceed from
New York to Washington, where as above
stated, they will be the special guests of
the United States. After rapid tour
through the Eastern, Middle and Western
States and journey across the continent
to San Francisco, it is surmised at the
Russian Legation that the tourists will
cross the Pacific, and, traversing the i'm
mense Empire of Russia on the continents
of Asia and Europe, reach st Petersburg
some time in October next.

!, The Boy ofthe Period.

!. Everybody has seen the boy of the Period.
His face hangs on the show.board in front OF
the photographers. he is on exhibition
for awhile every fair evening on the corners
of conspicuous streets. He is carefully and
ex-quisitely dressed, wears delicate kids;
twirls q light stick ;puffs fragrant cigar;
eyes every young lady that may chance to
pass, and gives his opinion of her at once
while her ears are in reach. Having finish
ed his treet performance, he lounges into a
billiard saloon, fourishes his cue, drinks his
drinks, pays for them with ostentatious parade
of his.indiference to money, and then sallies
out in search of home or of some other place.
The boy of the Period is great reader.
he is familiar with "Our: best Society"
"The Days Doings," and all the pictorial
literature which draws its embellishments
from lewd imagination. He detests read
ing of a solid kind as being unworthy the
attention of modern young gentleman. His
taste is too fine and fanciful to. be regaled
with the vulgar food of useful knowledge.
He glances his eye now and then. over the
leading daily prints, but if he fails to find in
them some rousing sensational record of
crime, he tosses them away in disdain. He
has heard of the Library, but,deems it Of no
use to hint may serve plodding blockheads
very we'll. "rt.-,'-.
The Boy of the Period is genius. He is.
above work, and has clerkship; but he has
no intention of passing his years in the dull
routine of profession, trade, or craft. He
is too smart for all that He needs money,
for he has the habit of a spendthirf. -.
Chance is protean. Honesty is straight.
forward and has single eye. The Boy of
the Period worships chance, and waits daily
at her shrine. At lenght he sails in; makes
a vent Q, in some form, and luck, the de-
ceiver, at first is on his side. Suddenly luck
has turned against him. He fights against
his luck desperately; founders into crime;
is detected, arrested, imprisoned, and punish
ed. Then the Boy Of the Period gets his
face into the rogue's- gallery, and himself
among the criminal classes.
Such is brief outline of the biography
which very nearly describes the line Of life
along which good many young men are
travelling. A little reflection on their part,
might induce then to choose a better and SAT-
er path. .n--
