this simple country Ind was a most cruel mud
desperate r,,ftnn. From 1854, when Le,Iiet-
ire was but eighteen years of age, up to a few
weeks past, except while he was away Mt the
war, the country about the little village Of
Andresscllcs was kept in constant state of
terrorism. Hay-stacks and buildings were
burned in every direction, houses were
broken open and robbed, and frequently most
brutal murders added to the general alarm.
No less than six inhabitants of Andresselles
were assassinated, one being n woman. The
bodies Of the men were all found to be sin.
gulary and horribly mutilated. Finally, on
the very morning Of his wedding-feast, Le-
METRE attempted to rob the house of priest
in tie neigbhorhood, and was watched and
captured. After trial OF four days, during
which he confessed himself guilty Of most OF
the o,itrages enumerated, and WINS proved
guilty of ill. he was condemned to death.
Probably such career would be impossl-.
hlcin any civilized country outside of France.
There are incidents related IN that gallery of
horrors tie Memoirs Of v,docQ which at
most equal it in unique hidcousness. In
point of long immunity. however, and utter
bloodthirstiness, the story of Iemettre IS
surely cyccptional-NctU York Times.

HOW TO Keep House and Five we'll or,
Less than 81 200 q Yeor-

10 me Ed,tor of the NeD York Times:
Your inquiries are by far more numerous
than the replies as to the mode of making
both ends meet when keeping house or liyins
on a small salary or income.
L have for the past two years kent house
With wife, three children, and two servants
on an income of less than 81, 200 Der annum.
ana from presentappearances shall do it again
this year. My plan is this:
spend what need to live well, keeping a
monthly account with the grocer, butcher.
&c. let the bills accumulate for q period Of
say two months, and at this time the treasury
is empty and the bills considerable. Then
(and this Is the grand idea) my wife collects
the bills and goes with tears in her eyes to
her father, pleads poverty, and talks the old
gentleman out of check, and the crisis is
met. The next time, to give him rest, one
OF the two inevitable well-off brothers-in-law
is called into rcquistion. This, you will see,
only happens twice a year to each, and it
don't hurt them much, so we swing along.
The above is the only feasible plan see,
and is, know, the most common way. No
young man, in my opinion, has a right to
marry unless his father-in-law keeps bank
account and unless the marriage brings him
couple, at least of moneyed brothers-in.

How NEGROES ARE TREATED IN PnlLADE1r

a EreacEA Murderer.

sires the days Of thst monster whom De
Quincey has inm0rtalZcd in his Three Ne
Hn0rGJle NurQcrs, the annals Of crime have
given us no more extraordinary story than
That which has lately spread CONSERVATION
over thc little town Of St. Omers, i'll France.
For systematic culd-blooded ticndishness, the
name Of Joseph Leincttre is worthy TO be set
beside that OF Caleb Williams. In some re-
sDects lis career Is even more extraordinary
than that OF De Guncey's famous assassin.
What distinguished Williams from ordinary
Hltrderers was not 50 much the DoldNeSS
even rs the tAoroushuess Of his bloody work.
Within fortnight, III populouS quarter OF
London, and i'll q narrow district of that,
the inhumgn wretch completely destroyed
three entire households, in only the last III
stance leaving s single human being alive
under the roof he had thus devoted to
wholesale slaughter. That single error was
his "luin,' for Oh the sole survivors, te.ti-
mony he was convicted and hanged.
Though inferior III dramatic picturesque
ness and intense horror, Lcmcttrc's career is
in one feature, at least, more phenomenal
In modern times we recall no instance where
q man has 90 devoted himself to murder for
tile mere sake Of plumber, during so long 3
series Of years, not only mourning no suspi-
ciou, but enjoying to Ill unusual degree the
confidence and affection Of his acquaintance.
The crimes for which LCmettre was lately
tried and has, perhaps, by this time been
executed, comprise arson, highway robbery,
burglary, and repeated murders, and range
through 4 period Of seven years. YET all
this while Lemcttre, to outward appearance,
was one Of the most simple and harmless Of
French peasants. For many years lie had
been . servant in the farmhouse Of Selles,
where his mniablc disposition and open,
smiling countcnarcc, made him many friends.
His employer had ii him always the utmost
confidence, and even when suspicion toward
the last began to penetrate the veil Of his
sleek duplicity, refused to discharge him.
Add to this that be WAS only twenty-five
years Old ut the time Of his trial, and looked
even younger, and that in the court he bore
himself with IN air ofangelic innocence and
the reader viii perceive that Joseph Lemcttre
was no ordinary or commonplace criminal.
Ever since 1864 the Ran has led two lives
IS utterly diverse as can we'll be imagined.
In one he was the faithful servant-docile,
obllging, cheerful. He married. in due time,
and VIXEN the wan broke out he bore arms in

ing quite notorious. Mary Coleman Ames,
the Washington correspondent of the hide.
pendent, gives personal sketch of Mr.. Snapp,
from which we quote: "He is a tall, angu,
lar, Notwithstanding man, with the tallow.
candle complexion peculiar to miasmatic re.
gions, where malaria saps out the warm, rich
life, and supplants it with its own yellow
hue. He has stiff white hair, deep-set eyes
tight-shut mouth-severe enough to bite q
nail-head off at single bite. His appearance
is pugnacious, his manner 'bumptious ); YET
he has a full, clear voice, and sufficient dig
nifty of presence to have impressed the House
in his favor in this his initial speech, had il
been in him so to do. Indeed, he chose to be
bombastic, vulgar, and disgusting. He treated
the House of Representatives and the ladies
in the galleries to display of buffoonery
that would have been creditable to a circus
clown in sawdust ring"
