that the Nashville authorities acted cow

dealing with the mob that shot and hung
David Jones. Our first impressions after
reading the Bonner'S account of it, are

Buy Good Books and Papers.

In the homes of the rich there are al
ways plenty of ornaments, costly furni-
ture, and often expensive, if not fine
pictures, but it is much less common to
find good libraries. American wealth
expends itself less frequently in this
direction, because taste for books
must be formed early, and many who
have made their own money had little
time in youth to acquire habit of
reading. Yet the Americans are a
reading people, though it may be feared,
from the trash which sells well and
amply rewards its producers, that the
public taste is more voracious than
delicate. The coarse pictorials and the
vulgar, stupid magazines and weeklies
that abound and prosper, and thrust
themselves on public notice from every
book stand, afford no very creditable
Endorsement. Yet those whose bust
ness it is to take special cognizance of
the progress of American literature, OBJ
serve that the quality has risen, not,
perhaps, in proportion to the quantity,
yet in degree that is highly honorable
to a literature of which critic said, but
forty years ago: "Who buys an
American book ?" What we need, is
the more liberal encouragement of
good literature, the avoidance of the
bad. There are people who think
themselves or their children well en-
ployed if they are reading. Often sheer
idleness, or any innocent amusement,
would be more profitable. To sit for
hours listening to foolish talk, mere
light gossip, would not seem improving
to any one; but trash as worthless writ
ten or printed, often has an imposing
appearance. But bad DO ks, trivial
books, silly books, are company to the
reader, and by the company he keeps
his mind is effected All know this Of
living companions. 1t is quite true Of
books. To much that is pub
lished to amuse the passing hour, we
cheerfully accord all the merit we can
find in it; but one of the highest func
tons of the literary critic in journal
ism, is to separate the wheat from the
chaff in the abundant harvest from the
fields of literature. If those who buy
for themselves or others will exercise &
proper discrimination in the choice o
books, they will find the profit of it t.
themselves, and give the profit of thei
purchase to those who deserve it.
Bad books are the worst companions
stupid books ale the dullest; foolish
books are the silliest. Avoid bad com
pany, is maxim that applies to book
as well as men.-Philadelphia Age.

A Railroad Reminiscence.

The recent death Of Erastus Corning
has suggested the following reminis-
cence: Mr.. Corning stood in 1865 the
autocrat of the New York Central Road,
but his Albany predictions were now
becoming dangerous to him, and he
soon perceived that new and threat
ening rival was to appear in New York.
This was Commodore Vanderbilt, In
1864 the Commodore owned 100000
in Central stock, and in the contest
with Olcott he voted for Corning, but
he saw that the interests of the road
demanded important attention to the
throu Oh traffic, and that Albany must
be made way station. Mr.. Corning
was notified that this policy should be
adopted, but he could not sacrifice AL
bany, and as the Commodore had OBJ
tanned controlling amount of stock
he resigned in favor of Dean Richmond,
whom Vanderbilt designated as his
successor. 1t may be remarked that
this change failed to suit the Commo-
dore. He found that Richmond was
too much influenced by the consider
alton of local travel and freight, and
did not give the through business pre-
ference. For this reason he ordered
Richmond to resign, and this sad warn
ing, it is said, threw the latter into that
fever which occasioned his death.

An Alleged BOrgia i'm Virginia.

LEEsBURG, Va, April l5.-What APP
pears to be Borgia case has just been
discovered. A Mrs. Emily E. Lloyd, a
lady Of responsibility, is suspected of
having poisoned her whole family, con-
sisting of her husband andifour children,
as well as an elderly female relative
who was visiting her. After the death
of the last child, about the close of
March, analyzation of its stomach by
Professor Toury, of Baltimore, disclosed
the existence of arsenic, and on the
announcement of that fact, late on
Saturday, Coroner's jury rendered a
verdict that the child had been pois
oned by its mother. The case of the
accused comes before the magistrate
for hearing today. The other five
bodies are to be disinterred and an
analytical examination made of them.
The only reason alleged for the com
mission of these crimes is that the wo
man desired to remarry and wished to
put the children out of the way in
Difference to her new love.

A Wonderful Escape.

A really wonderful escape from being
cut to pieces occurred on an English
line of railway week or two ago. A
young man employed by the London
and Northeastern Company as coke
filler at certain station was returning
home from work, when he jumped upon
the step of a passing goods engine to
ride to a certain crossing few hundred
yards southwark. In the darkness he
was unobserved by the driver, who
therefore did not slacken for him to get
down, and thus, owing to the impetus of
the engine, he was not able to bring up,
when he leaped off, until he had run
into the fore-foot of the next line of
rails. Scarcely had his foot touched the
ground when down train came up at a
speed of fully twelve miles an hour, and
before he could escape he was struck by
the front of the engine and thrown face
downward between the rails, where he
lay until the entire train-in which
there were nearly a score pair of wheels
passed over his PROSTATE body without
touching it. Beyond few slight bruises
and scratches, he found himself little the
worse for his hairbreadth escape.

Probable Wife Murder.

A Paterson, N. j., dispatch of April
Is, says: "Four months ago one Nc
Clone, who had given himself the name
of Brophy, hired house on the banks
of the Passaic in Paterson. The house
was mere cabin, which had been put
on the old stone quarry under the hill,
and in lonely place on an unfre-
quented park or wagon road leading to
the valley of the rocks. Shortly alter
McGlone moved his family there, his
wife one night, after clearing away the
supper table, took the pail and went to
the river shore, but few steps away, to
get water for morning, as was her usual
custom. She did not return. The hus-
band was soon afterward told by the
children about "mother" going out for
water, and he guessed she would come
back and sent the children to bed, and
went to bed himself; but the wife and
mother did not return, and suspicious
were excited against him, as he tried to
make it appear that she had gone off to
Ireland. But the family was obscure,
and after a talk among the neighbors
the man moved off and the woman was
forgotten, until the body was found on
Wednesday last, washed ashore oppo-
site Passaic village, about seven miles,
by the river, from the town whence the
woman was missing. The body was
well preserved and bore evidence of
foul play. A justice of the peace from
Lodi was requested to hold an inquest,
but got rough box, tumbled the body
into it, and, mailing it up, buried it. 1t
was conjectured that McGlone moved
to the lonely spot at the "swash," in
tending to murder his wife, knowing
that her cries could never be heard
above the roar of Passaic falls. The
publication of the facts led to disin-
telment on Saturday, and before Pat
erson jury, the woman's oldest boys
testimony pointed clearly to his father
as the murderer. The body having been
exhumed showed evidence of foul play
and the jury rendered verdict against
McGlone. Not having read the news
papers, he returned to Paterson yester
dey, and is in prison. Behind this
crime is dashing widow at Long Island
to whom McGlone has paid attentions

The Man Who Fired the Nauyoo Temple.
From die Peoria (Ill. Transcript.

From the Peoria (Ill.) Transcript
Among the events of the famous Nor
mon war was the burning of the Nauvoo
Temple. The structure was burned in
the night time, and so successful was
the party engaged in its firing that prob
ably hewas never even suspected. The
recent death of the incendiary, how
ever, has removed the necessity of fur
ther secrecy, and day or two ago we
were put in possession of his name and
the facts connected with the burning of
the Temple by the only living person
cognizant of them. The Temple
was fred by Joseph B. Agnew,
who recently died in Appanoose town
ship, Hancock county, in this State, at
the age of some SIS years. 1t was always
supposed that the party who burned
the building had entered through the
basement, but the facts are, Mr.. Agnew
surreptitiously obtained key to enc of
the doors of the Temple some time be-
him, and only four knew he was the
party. Three of these are now dead.
Agnew prepared his fire balls and other
combustibles at his residence. Placing
them in his saddle-bags, he rode on
horseback to Nauvoo, and in the night
entered the Temple with his key, passed
up to the cupola, arranged his mate
rails and fired them, and then quietly
escaped the way he came. Our inform
ant, who is responsible and prominent
citizen of the western part of the State,
says he thinks he can procure the key
of the Temple which Agnew secured in
order to accomplish his work.
