Wrong Roads.

Many a man is on the wrong road
altogether with respect to his profession.
We have known an artist, whose ,yoca.
tion was a linen>draper, and more than
one tradesman with all his head and
heart in art, very bad bargainer, but
a good judge of colors, and q capital
hand in dressing out a window So
licitor, ground down to a desk, whose
native road laid along the seabcach,
and between the storm and the food !,
g clergyman, who would have been more
at home IL carpenters shop..than in the
pulpit; and an actress, whose beau
ideal Of human life was q farm house
doTn in the country, where she might
feed her ducks aud chickens herself,
and superintcnd the dairy and the
baking. Now all these people were on
tho wrong road in life, consequently
they could naver cultivate their hedge
side, properly, but we're forced to be con-
tent with pignuts and bifckberries, and
anything else that came handy by the
grace Of nature; never able to raise o
bushel of grain for Harvest time, or to
gather their own apples for storage. 1t
they had been on the right track for
each, they might have cultivated every
square foot of their portions and then
the world would have hadtso much adj
ded harmony between character and
circumstance, and SO much more faith
ful work heartily performed.

DETAILS OF THE TERRIBLE
FIRE AT PESETEGO.

The sharp air Of early October had
sent the people in from the church
services more promptly than usual,
although numbers delayed to speculate
on a great noise and ado which set in
ominously from the West. The house
wives looked tremblingly at the fires
and lights within, and the men took
last look at the possibilities without
for many it was truly last glimpse
The noise grew in volume, and came
pearer and nearer and nearer with ter
rife cracking and decorations. The
forest rocked and tossed tumultuously;
a dire alarm fell upon the imprisoned
village, for the swirling blasts came now
from every side. In one awful instant,
before expectation could give shape to
the horror, great fame shot up in the
western heavens, and in countless fiery
tongues struck downward into the viii
lage, piercing every object that stood
ia the town like a red hot bolt. \
deafening roar, mingled with blasts of
electric flame filled the air, and paral-
lied every soul in the place. There was
no beginning to the work Of ruin the
flaming whirlwind swayed in an instant
through the town. There is no diver
sity in the general experience; all
heard the first inexplicable roar some
aver that the earth shook, while a
credulous few avow that the heavens
opened, and the fire rained down from
above. Moved by common instinct,
every habitation was deserted to the
flames, and the gasping multitude
fiocked to the river. On the west the
mad horde saw the bridge in flames in a
score of places, and, turning sharply to
the left, with one accord, plunged into
the water. Three hundred people
wedged themselves 10 between the roll
Ing booms, swayed to and fro by the
current, where they roasted, in the hot
breath of fame that hovered above
them, and singed the hair on each head
momentarily exposed above the water.
Here, despairing men and women held
their children till the cold water came
as an ally to the flames, ard deprived
them of strength.
Meantime the eastern bank was
densely crowded by the dying and the
dead. Rushing to the river in this
direction, the swirling Blasts met them
full in the face, and moved a swath

bodies were found within a stones

Prince Alexis.

Great preparations are being made for
the reception of Prince Alexis. A feet OF
yachts, United States frigate, and steamer
with the Citizens Reception Committee, will
meet the Russian squadron down the bay and
escort 1t up to the Battery. Thence the
National Guard will escort the royal visitor to
his hotel, and afterward the proceedings will
depend on the wishes Of the Prince. It is
thought that he will Immediately post OF to
Washington to pay his respects to the Presi-
dent. On his return ball will be given
himGt the Academy, breakfast at Jerome
Park, review of the Fire Department,
a torchlght procession and an excursion
up the Hudson. Altogether, the entertain.
ment in honor OF our Russian lion will be on O.
grander scale than any entertainment we have
ever given to a foreign visitor, except Lafay-
cite. In the present case the charge OF
funkyism levelled against our people is
simply puerile and foolish. If there is any
European nation for whom we entertain Q
most hearty affection it is Russia: She was
stanch, fearless aud powerful friend of ours
during our troubles, and has always been out
spoken in her attachment to us as nation.
She paid unusual honors to our own Farragut
during his visit to her shores in 1866, and in
honoring Russia's Prince we propose to recip-
rocate in some measure the honor she paid
him, as well as to give expression to our well>
defined regard for Russia herself.

YORK HERALD THURSDAY

Quoted so far with mastery skill and most
excellent effect.
The political crisis which has been pro-
duced in England by the Hebrew pronuncia-
mento at Hughenden Is alarming for Queen
Victoria. 1t is almost deadly to the royal
aspirations of the Prince Of Wales; decidedly
deadly should it be prolonged by the obs'i-
macy of his mother in holding on to power.
The Queen Of England should take advice.
She should abdicate gracefully. She should
acknowledge her physical and mental
incapacities. She should do wore than
this. She should caution the Prince
of Wales not to attempt to obstruct the
wishes of the British democracy with regard
to their future form of government, but to
quietly permit the masses to give complete
effect TO the ''new departure" movement Of
Disraeli. even if one Of its first consequences
should be the elevation of this plain and
simple living son Of Judah to the Presidential
chair of British republic. The Prince
of Wales should heed and obey the matronly
counsel, lest England should produce Judith
who would search for aud find modern Holo-
fernes.

Dr.. WILLIAM WELLS BROWN (colored) tell 8
story Of the Ku Klux ip Kentucky, from
which we would jddge that the Klan in that
State is not composed exclusively Of the cul-
tured and enlightened citizens. 1t appears
from the narrative that Brown was captured
by party of them, and was on his way to
convenient hanging tree, when be opportuncly
came across man In delirium tremens, Of
course dear friend of the Ku Kluxers. They
directed that he save the life Of this man,
and he proceeded to do SO, injecting
morphine by the hypodc-mic process, and
doing other things so wonderful and
relieving the man of his pains so rapidly that
the Ku Kluxers thought he was an cmissary
ofthe devil, naturally concluding that a black
man who put his talents TO such use as
curing invalid Ku Kluxers could not be an
angel, and they consequently delayed hang
ing him. Thus he had time to escape, and,
taking a railroad train near at hand. at once
