The Power Of Love

An English writer relates the following
manner in which the quiet persistent love OF
a child was the redemption ofa drunken faith
er: . Ean-
"That night I was out late; returned by
the Lee cabin about II o'clock. AS ap-
preached, I saw a Strengthening object

was falling; it was autumn. drew near,
and there was Mile wet to the skin. Her
father had driven her out some. hours before ;
she had laid down to listen for the heavy
snoring of his drunken slumbers, so that she
might creek back to bed Before she heard
it, nature seemed exhausted, and she fell in
to trouble sleep, with rain drops pattering
upon her. Itried to take her home with

struggled from me. and returned to the
dark silent cabin.-Things went on thus for
weeks and months, but at length Lee grew
less violent, even in his drunken fits, to his
self.denying daughter; and one day when he
awoke from slumber after debauch, and
found her preparing breakfast for him, and
singing childish song, he called her, and,
with tone almost tender, said:
"Millie, what makes you stay with me p
"'Because you are my father, andI love
you
"' You love me- repeated the wretched
man; you love me! He looked at his
bloated limbs, his soiled and ragged clothes.
Love me- he murmered, 'Millie, what makes
you love me? I am a poor drunkard; ev-
cry body despises me; why don't your
"'Dear father said the girl with SWIM

love you, and everv night she comes from
heaven and stands by my bed, and says:
Mile, don't leave your father, he will get
away from that rum fend some of these
days, and then how happy you will be-
"And he did get away from the rum
fend. The unfaltering affection of his
child, strengthened by the dying words of
the mother, saved him and restored him
again to his manhood" &

"Consider Me Smith"

There is very good story in the papers
of the trick which was played by old DIR.
Caldwell, formerly of the University Of
North Carolina.
The old doctor was q small man and lean,
but as hard and angular as the most irregu-
lar of pine knots.
He looked as though he might be tough,
but he did not seem strong. Nevertheless
he was, among the knowing ones, reputed
to be as agile as cat, and in addition was
by no means deficient in knowledge Of the
''noble science. of Sc f:defence." Well, in
the Freshman class of certain year was a
burly beef mountaineer of eighteen or nine
teen. This genius conceived great con-
tempt for old Bolus' physical dimensions,
and his soul was Mortified that one so defci-
ent in muscle should be so potential in bis
rule.
Poor Jones-that is what we'll call him
had no idea of moral fore. At any rate he
was not inclined to knock under and be con-
trolled despotically by man he imagined
he could tie and whip. At length he de-
termined to give the gentleman genteel,
private threshing some night in the College
Campus, pretending to mistake him tor some
fellow student.
Shortly after on a dark and rainy night,
Jones met the doctor crossing the Campus.
Walking up to him abruptly:
"Hello, Smith, you rascal, is that you "
And with that he struck the old gentle
man blow on the side Of his face that
nearly felled him.
Old Bolus said nothing, but squared him
self, and at it they went. Jones youth,
weight and muscle made him an ugly GUS
toner; but after a round or two the doctor $
science began to tell, and in short time had
knocked his antagonist down, and was
a-stradle of his chest, with one hand on his
throat, and the other dealing vigorous cuffs
on the side of his head
"Ah stop II beg pardon, doctor =
Doctor CALDWELL mistake-for heaven
sake, doctor " groaned Jones, who thought
he was about to be eaten up-"l-l really
thought it was Smith ]" =,
The doctor replied with word and a blow
alternately
"It makes no difference; for all present
purposes consider me Smith"
And it is said that old Bolus gave Jones
such pounding then and there as probIa'
bly, prevented him from ever making anoth'
er mistake as to personal identity, at least
on the College Campus.

A Mammoth Brokers Office.

If any of our readers wish to get an in
sight into the intricacies and profits of the
brokerage business, they should secure few
claims against the various departments of
State Government, and then present them
for payment at Columbia. The first thing
they will tell you here is "There's not dol
lar in the Treasury" But in short time
some one will carelessly whisper in your
ear, eff you call on Mr.. --he will help
you put it through" You call and Mr..
-. who is no State officer, looks wise and
doubtful-"and afraid there's no chance
lots of such claims here-no money-Trcas-
urer absent" &c., but closes with what will
you take for it?" Being hard up for
money you propose deduction Of five per
cent. You aston!sh Mr.. -, who in
forms you that money is worth II per eeut
q month on good paper, and it is doubtful
when your claim will be paid, you must
come down much better than that. Well,
your necessities press hard and you propose
ten per cent. "Can't promise you on that;
have seen many like claims sold at 25 per
cent" You study, perhaps say "cuss
words" but he is as stolid as rock. In a
fit of desperation, with probably not FIVE 3pl-
lars in your pocket, and hotel bills and aav.
cling expenses to be met, you agree to the
shave, and hand over the claim. Mr.. -
takes it, cody telling you he will ''try and
get it for you" next day, or on that after
noon at such an hour. You of course sup
pose he will 90 and sell it to some private
Individual who has little money to risk on
such uncertain claims Not so. Watch
Mr.. close, and you will find him
vending his way to the State House. You
cannot tell which room he enters; but wait
patiently. In short time he energies
Keep your eye on him, or if you think he
you of watching him, get friend
to do it for you. See him enter certain

Without hesitation the grecnbacks trans
ferred and snugly deposited in Mr.. IS
pocket before he gets out of the door. At
the appointed hour you call, and are inform
ed that after great deal of maneuvering
and much hard labor the claim has been
sold-hc don't tell you to whom-and you
pocket the amount of your claim, minus the
rs per cent. The moral of all this is %

ting out the fire, and then the worst had
passed. The earth around was on fire in
spots, house and mill were gone, leaves,
brush and logs we're swept clean away as if
shaved off and swept with broom, and no.
thing but eoot and ashes was to be seen.
After the fire had somewhat cooled OFT,
Weaver made an investigation of his caches,
and found that considerable of the property
buried had been saved, although he lost all
his provisions, except piece Of dried beef,
which the fire had cooked as in an oven
without spelling it. He had no other re-
source than to remain around the place that
day, during the night, and the greater part
of the next day, when the ground had cool
ed enough SO that he could pick his way to
the site Of the burned zillage; He was s!!; near T.
trees were falling, logs were burning, and
the fallen timber had in some places heaped
up breasswork, over which no one could
climb.-Detrott Post.

HIsToRIcAL RETR1BUTIoNs.-Jecker,
thc banker, who was one of the hostages
murdered by the Commune savages during
the assault on Paris, was the man whose
Mexican claims Napoleon made one OF his
excuses for invading Mexico. Retribution
for that great crime has singularly over
taken its authors and main instruments.
Spain engaged in it, with General Prim as her
leader. Spain has since been reyolutionized,
and General Prim assassinated. The sad
fate of Macmillan and Carlotta the world is
familiar with.-Austria upheld it, and
Austria has been terribly punished. One OF
its excuses was the revival of the power Of
the Jesuits, and the further establishment
of the Catholic religion on this continent,
The pope favored it, and his power began to
wane then, and is now in ruins. Napoleon
NAV date the beginning of his fall from that
ill-starred expedition. Every French Gen,
eral engaged in Mexico yet living has since
been beaten on the battlefield and disgraced
in the opinion ofhis own countrymen. And
now Jecker has died by the hands of violence
The British statesmen that excused it are
either dead or out of power. The retribu
tions of history arc stranger oftentimes than
50. called poetic justice.-DetroH tost.

BREAKING RED TApE.-A day or two
after the great fire, government train ar
rived at Chicago with stores, but as it was
not consigned to any particular person, the
railroad officials were puzzled to know what
to do with it. AS the cars were sealed with
government locks, the railroad officers would
not allow them to be opened, although they
contained supplies that were sorely needed
to appease the demands of hungry applicants.
Mr.. Keck, chairman of the Cincinnati Re-
lief Committee, hearing of the state of
affairs, demanded of the Superintendent that
the cars be opened. "Can't do it, sir with
out competent authority" was the reply.
"The cars are sealed with the government
locks, and it's heavy penalty to meddle
with seal of that kind" "D-n the gov
ernment lock-" replied Mr.. Keck, "I'll take
all the responsibility. Here, you chap
there give me that axe" The axe was
handed to him. the cars were smashed in,
and soon cleared of their precious contents.

Extraordinary Appetite Of g. Boy.

Fred Bowman, the boy who has gwen the
iSusquehanna Valley Homo so much unplcas-
amt notoriety recently, was returned to the
Home at Binghampton, N. Y, by Sheriff
Marsin. The boy has boarded with the
sheriff about three weeks, ard his capacity
for devouring has been fully tested as mat
ter of curiosity. His appetite is wonderful,
as we'll as the powers of his stomach. He
would eat at first the amount Of food doalt
Out in the regular rations, and beg from the
prisoners all that was loft ON their plates.
The sheriff did not exactly want the name
of starving the boy, and gradually increased
his rations until they were nearly doubled,
but never did scrap of victuals come back
on his plate. Sometimes he would be given
three rations at one time, and would eat it to
the last crunb, but it was liable to make him
dyspeptic if continued any great length of
time. But the sheriff can't 20 quite clear Of
censurc for starving the boy, for when they
took him out of Jail to carry him to the
Home his mouth was full of old tobacco
quids that prisoner had thrown up into
one corner of the debtors cell, and the poor
lad was actually devouring them to sustain
his physical organization. The double ra,
tions of substantial food that he was allowed
during the day, and painful of cookies ex-
ira at night pleased the youth better than
the fare at tho Home, and for that reason
he shed tears on being transferred to his
former quarters. He did not get any old
bones to gnaw at the Jail between meals, but
he could make lunch Of old tobacco quids
and was happy. What will become OF him
now is matter of considerable interest.

A Texas paper relates that the Mayor Of
Groesbeck, town in that State, was fined
$50 the other day for carrying concealed
weapons, and adds to the information state
