Love, Rivalry and Revenge.

In Paris paper there is marvellous
story of love, rivalry and revenge, the re-
venge being of the most novel kind. Or.
lando Farnerini, Venetian scientific pro-
fessor, fell violently in love with the daugh-
ter of baker in the neigborhood, but the
young lady had previously vested her at
fections in young tailor named Charles
Geneo Carellino. Now on this account
Farnerini hated Carellino with deadly
hatred which was increased by the fact
that he owed his favored rival a good long
bill for more than a years clothes. But he
disguised his rage and wrote to the tailor,
saying that he knew money would he want
ed for the marriage, and that if he and his
intended bride would pay a friendly call
the next day the account should be paid.
The young couple called and were politely
received by the Professor in his studio.
The conversation was cleverly turned to
the subject of electricity, and of its many
wonders Farnerini eloquently discoursed,
offering to give them slight shock from
his machine. He placed them hand in
hand, and put one pole of the battery be.
tween the fair fingers of the young lady,
giving the other to the tailor. Then he
turned the machine on at its full strength.
A half-stifled cry broke from the two low
ers, who fell and twisted convulsively in
their agony, executing the most terrible
contortions, overturning the furniture and
bruising their limbs in their desperate at
tempt to escape. Orlando Farnerini look
ed on and laughed with vengeful glee. In
about five minutes there remained only a
frightful entang lement of two corpscs
Then Farnerini turned off the current, and
went to tell the police all about the matter.
Figaro thinks that men of science will find
it difficult to get clothes on credit in the
future. Probably, also, young men wish
ing to marry will take care that they do
not cross the passion of Professor.

Three Per Cent. a Month.

A merchant once came to Mr.. James G.
King, of New York, in great distress to
borrow one hundred thousand dollars for a
year, saying that he must have it, and that
his business would justify him in paying
any rate ofinterest. Mr.. King told him
that no business could stand premium OF
three per cent. month, but finding him
hard to convince, took the following meth

for two or three years. l will discount
your note for hundred thousand dollars
if you will make it three years.
Thank you, Mr.. King; will draw it at
once. II is very kind in you; but don't
you want collateral 2
No sir. Mr.. Miller turning to the ac-
countant take off the discount at three
per cent. month on 100000 for three
years and draw check for the balance
from Mr. d. Wait a moment, Mr.. D., give

The conversation became general, both

the following note to Mr.. D., for 100000 !:

carry on your trade, will tell you what

A Wonderful Spring i'm Florida.

One of the greatest natural curiosities in
the South is the Wakulla Spring, which is
the source of beautiful river Of the same
name.
The spring is between four and five hun
dred feet in diameter and on bright and
calm day, to pass over it in boat you feel
as though you were suspended in midair,
the water being so limpid and transparent.
At the depth of one hundred and sixty
feet dime can be as distinctly seen as
though it were at their feet. On gazing
into the depths of this wonderful spring it
shows all the prismatic hues of the rain
bow, and near its bottom can be seen fish
of different varieties, crabs, terrapins and
now and then on alligator.
The beautiful grove of evergreens around
makes it a lovely spot, and on your first
visit you feel as though you were upon en-
chanted ground, a fine place for medita-
ton for when alone there is nothing to dis
turb the thought but the bark of the SPUR
rel, or the shrill cry of the bittern.
This spring being located only sixteen
miles from Tallahassee, it is the frequent
resort of pic mic parties, who enjoy them
selves exceedingly in the beautiful grove
of oaks upon its margin.

And before each step of my onward way,
lie makes new scenes to rise;
And every joy he sends me, comes
AS q sweet and glad surprise.

As trace the day of the year;
But the past is still in Gods keeping,
The future His mercy shall cheer;
And what looks dark in the distance,
May brighten as draw near.

The Lord may sweeten the water
Before | stoop to drink;
Or, If Marah must be Marah,
He will stand beside the brink.

For the coming of my feet,
Some gift of such rare bessedncss,
Some joy so strangely sweet,
That my life can only tremblc
With the thanks l cannot speak.
My heart shrinks back from trials
Which the future may disclose,
Yet never had sorrow
But what the dear Lord chose
And | send the coming tears back,
With the whispered words, ole knows"

Than go alone in the light
