CNUaLY ENscoNoED AMID THE wILDs OF
y one of the Middle States, lived Madame Della
champs, many years ago, with no known protector,
save faithful dog that stood beside her to de
fend in time of need. Her small, moss-covered
cabin, wrapped with the wild rose and honeysuckle,
appeared hid away by cluster of underground,
and closely environed on the north and east by a
Deep craggy ravine that led away back to the noun

Here, smiling tho ambient air, waited from ma

The catamounts unearthly midnight YELL and the

pleasant midnight slumbers.
Now and then she would emerge from her un-
known home and mingls with the inhabitants
around about for ono or two months at time. She
was eccentric in her acts, and all viewed her az
living curiosity.
While from home, she apparently had but one OBJ

Under belt on her left SIDE could be seen an old
fashioned dirk of considerable size, carried for her
own protection, while strapped across her shoulder
was suspended curious sack made from the

She too gained quite reputation for relieving the
suffering of her sex, and strange 1t may appear,
she scarcely failed to those old chronic s
male complaints that had resisted all ordinary modes
of treatment. Many years ago, the writer OF this,
while engaged in the practice of medicine, by little
strategy succeeded in procuring the secret of this
wonderful Vegetable Regulator, which had never
been known to the Medical Profession.
He gave 1t fair and impartial trial in the treat
ment of various forms and stages of female COM
plants with such decided satisfaction, that in 1860 he

THE ST. CHARLES STREET PAVING.

In theory, paving of streets is under
taken to facilitate travel thereon. In
practice, so far as St. Charles avenue is
concerned, the paving seems to have been
undertaken to impede the progress of pas
sengers.
If this be not so, why does the road
remain week after week, and month after
month, in its present unfinished condi
ton, with considerable part of its sur
face dug up to receive the Nicolson paw
ing, the work upon which has stopped
since the latter part of October last? 1t
is difficult to account for this, unless
the enterprise was "job' con-
ceived, matured, and "put up"
by some portion of that monopoly Of all
civil virtue and honesty, the late city adj
ministration, and spoiled 10y the I'M
expected accession Of the present NUM-
cipal authorities. If we do not greatly
err, the lines for the paving of St. Charles
avenue were given from the City Survey
ors office last May, and the contract made
with the city by the Southern Paving
Company required the company to finish
the paving bargained for in one year from
the time of receiving the lines. The
contract is for the paving of st.
| Charles avenue, on both sides Of
| the Carrollton railroad, from Tivoli
| Circle to ToledanO street. it being a
| condition that the material used in the
| construction should be approved by the
| city administration, through its proper
| officers A vast quantity of wooden
blocks accumulated by the company has
been rejected by the experts under the
| control of the City Surveyor.
And so, because the city authorities re-
| quire for their money road that will
not endanger vehicles and animals like
| the portion of the avenue paved by the
same company, some time ago, in Jeffer-
son City (now Sixth DISTRICT, the COM
pany has stopped the work. What do
they wish the city administration to do =:
Accept as. good and proper material
which competent expert authority has
decided to be neither good nor proper
If this is not their idea why do they not,
as their contract requires, get material
that the city orH accept, and finish the
work in the manner and within the time
their contract requires?
The portion of the road in the Sixth
District already spoken OF, is worse than
any cobble stone pavement ever was, and
it can not be repaired except with great
expense and trouble; and the City Sur
veyor does only his duty in taking care
