Died of a Broken Heart.

The Buffalo Commercial has the fol-
lowing account of a man who died of a
broken heart, caused by a successful
attempt to blackmail
ga few months ago q man died in a
little town on the Canada side, who in
early life was one CT the most promising
clergymen in the city of New York.
He died a broken-hearted man, ana the
victim to a merciless attempt to black
mail which had been tried upon him
soon after his entrance upon parochial
duties. He was summoned one day to
perform a Christian clergyman's offices
In n house where he had had no pre-
vious acquaintance. The story told by
the parties who summoned him was a
very plausible one, and he went with
out hesitation into the trap prepared
for him. AS soon as he arrived at the
sick chamber he was confronted by two
men, who maintained that he had visit
ed the house with impure motives, and
threatened to expose him unless he p id
acertain sum Of 'hush-money.' The man
in his b%ewilderment took precisely the
wrong course. He felt that he could
better submit to pecuniary eXtortion
than to allow his name to be used in
connection with a disgraceful affair, no
matter how innocent he might have
been of the charges brought against
him. He, therefore, paid the sum de-
manded. From that hour he was a
doomed man. AT regular intervals his
prosecutors called for more money. If
he refused to pay, they held the old
threat oven him, and it was now doubly
strong from the fact that he had paid
once to keep the matter a secret. His
life became a torture to him. He re-
signed his parish in the metropolis,
and tried to be concealed in a more
humble parish in another part of the
country but go where he would, the
relent less blackmailcrs were on his
track. Finally he told to his friends
the terrible secret of his life. This
thwarted his prosecutors, to be sure,
but their wretched victim was already
a ruined man, as we have said he died
a few months ago in a quiet out-of-the-
way Canadian town"

Converting Sinners by telegraph.

A New York correspondent of a
Western paper gives the following re-
liglous experiences as related at q Full
ton street prayer meeting;
An oper tor at GAINESVILLE, who re-
ceived and transmitted the messages,
was invited to a devotional meeting,
and carelessly consented to go in. 1t
was but a few minutes before he was
seized with the convection that he was
a perishing sinner, and rose to ask
PRAYER for himself. Before that meet
ing closed he rose again, aud with great
joy declared his faith In the Saviour,
saving that he felt as certain that God
had forgiven his sins as that he stood
there, Shortly after a delegate, who had
been to GAINESVILLE, returned to Cincin-
natl and told the story. An operator
in the Cincinnati office heard of it. He
said to himself. That's a rather SEN
sational story, and | don't believe 1T. y
During an idle hour in the office it oc-
Cured TO HIM to test the story. SO he
called GAINESVILLE. GAINESVILLE answered,

A private letter from Fort Randall,
Dakota, says that a few days since a
party of Indians arrived there, direct
from the Black Hills. They had in
their possession a double handful OF
nuggets of gold and a considerable
quantity of quartz. Officers of the fort
tried to buy this gold, for the purpose
of sending it to friends as specimens,
but the Indians refused to part with it.
The writer says that considerable ex-
element exists there among the citi-
1ens and soldiers over the recent dis
coyeries at the Black Hills, and a party
there wish to join the expedition which
is being fitted out at Sioux City.

NeStern SchoolhouSeS.
From Tilton's Golden Age

1t seems a pity that so many of the
fine school houses in the west, where
land is plenty ana cheap, should be
built to the towering height of five OF
six stories, compelling young girls to
do Il great deal Of unwholesome run
ming up and down stairs, injurious to
their PHYSICAL constitution. and often
times resulting in the chronic disorders
peculiar To the sex. We have seen
many of these institutions which look
like a Webster's Dictionary standing
on end. Why not, instead, build them
after the model OF the dictionary lying
tiat2 The building committee should
broaden their foundations and decapi
tate their towers. Two flights of STAIRS,
a first and second story, all that should
ever be seen in q school house-par-
tlcularlv Il school house trequented by
girls. But there seems to have been
an ambition in the West to make the
schoolhouSe Il sort Of towu.monument
visible for a dozen miles across the
prairies Of Illinois or Minnesota. The
western schooi-houseS are III most re-
spects far superior to any others in the
country. Their defect is their undue
height. This objection is serious. We
know, from personal inspection, that
the fault of which we speak is begin
ming to show itself in the WEAKNESS %
scholars and teachers-not the males
but the females. Other new houses are
to be erected in various parts Of the
western states. Our suggestion, We
think, is worthy Of grave consideration.

From The Dominian.

OTTAWA, May 1.-CorrespOndence between
the Canadian and British governments relative
to the illegal seizure of the schooner Horton at
GuysborO, has been laid before the house. The
first paper is a memorandum from the Dominion
council 10 Earl Kimberley, stating that prize
money should be forfeited by the gross careless
ness in guarding the Horton; that the question
of indignity TO the flag should properly be left
to the home government; and that the commit
tee of the council under the circumstances, did
not feel called on to recommend a reclamation
Of the vessel by the dominion.
Earl Kimberly replied that he was satisfied
that such dignillcd conduct from Canada would
serve to promote frendliness with the United
States, which was the earnest desire of England
Then follow dispatches TO the Canadian gov
eminent from Earl Kimberley, covering the ac-
ton of the American government in not giving
fresh papers to the schooner, and the subsequent
avowal Of the British government to the cover.
nor general that the circumstances would not
require further action,
Finance Minister Hincks has presented the
budget 10 parliament. The debt of the domn-
ion is $50 900 900; actual revenue last year, S19,-
900 600; and the revenue the current year will
he $50, 900. The total expenditures for the
coming year, for the Pacific railway and other
works will be s40,000,O00. Mr.. Hincks then re-
ierred Ia the advantages of tue Washington
treaty TO Canada; and, although not agreeing
with all its provisions, he urged agreement TO
the fishery clause; he believed the home govern
ment would yet guarantee the 500, 900 900 loan,
saying the dominion, il refusing to agree to the
fishery clause, would be unable to raise $40, 900,
600 in the English money market
