=" Vow OF REyESGE.-Atter Mccarthy was
Killed in Washington, his body was taken TO a
druq store. His mistress OF the deml-monde
hearing of his death rushed to the scene:
She gave way for awhile lsays a correspondent
oftbs Philadelphia Press to her grief, throwing
herself upon the dead man and weeping hys'
terically. Suddenly she arose and approaching
the assassin, who sat sulleny looking upon the
scene, said, you know who | am; you may
escape the law, butit you do you cannot escape
me. for I will kill you. I'll follow you to the
worlds end-yes even TO- She is said to
be woman of extraordinary strength OF mind
and determinations and it is not doubted that
she will execute her threat if the opportunity
isgiven her.
A FAITHFUL MULE-An old huckster of
Annapolis, who has been engaged inthe business
for many years past, and who has had theser-
vice of mule during that long period, has been
in the custom of rising for early market, and
having his wagon stored the night previous
would put the mule to the vehicle and allow
him to draw it undriven to the market house,
while he 1.-THE huckster) would be eating his
breakfast. Some mornings since the old man
slept later than usual, and, when ne arose,
hunted in vain for his mule. He accordingly
procured horse and carried his marketing to
the usual stall, where he found his faithful
mule patiently awaiting him, actually backed
up 10 the customary manner.

Carl Schurz is not only SCHOLAR, SOL
der. and philosopher, but be a thorough
American as well. Recently. on the occa-
sion Of the development of some ill-feeling
among the Germans Of Chicag. on account
OF the supposed neglect shown hat element
in the distribution Of certain appointments,
noble sentiment was uttered by General
Schurz. Be American citizns. nothing
more. nothing less. is the watclword which
he gives his countrymen resident in Amer
lea; and it is motto which they and all
other adopted citizens may afely make
their rule Of action in public ad,irs. Foreign
born citizens who forsake their own lands
for one which offers superior attractions can
consistently afford to merge their nation
atty in that Of the country which gives
them shelter. and thus increas. their own
happiness and the greatness o: tie republic.
The words Of the senator have asecOndary
meaning, which applies equalywell to the
native bonn American. Be 'nohing more
tLan an American citizen" not al oppressOr
or partisan Of any particular church, nation
or coloc. and join with all those who dwell
beneath our national flag in horst, hearty,

THE PRErrlEsr THING WE EVER Saw
Passing last evening before Mr.. b. T.

were enticed to enter by an accidental
glance that We caught Of smoking jacket
of extraordinary beauty, which Mr.. Walshe
was at that moment showing to customer.
Tie material of the jacket was a fine drab
cashmere. but its main beauty lay in the
wonderful combination formed by the trim
ming Of rich scarlet quilted satin and orna-
mented clasps. It was perfect, that's all
about it. The genius of tailoring never con-
ceived lovlier G arment we are sure; and
we could not help envying the future pos
