A South Wind longing.

Here is something timely and delicious
from Warmers Backlog Studics,' in the
forthcoming April Nc. OF Sc'1bn0's:
Perhaps the influence Of the four great
winds on character is only a fancitd one;
but it is evident on temperament, which l.
not altogether matter Of temperature.
although the good old deacon used 10 say, il
his humble simple way, that his third wife
was very good woman, but fa' 't0npcra-
tlEe was very different from that Of the
other two" The north wind is full Of cotl-
rage, and puts the stamina Of endurance into
L lnin, and il probably would into woman,
too, if there were Il series OF resolutions
pissed to that effect The west wind Is
hopeful; it has promise Rid adventure in it.
and i. except to Atlantic rovagcrS America
bound, the best wind that ever blew. The
cast wind is pccyiShnc>s; it is mental rhcti-
matism and Srumhlinc, and curls one rp III
the chimncy-corn"r like IL cat. And il the
chimney ever smoke, il smokes when the
wind sets in that quarter. The south wind
is fun of longing and unrest, of cilcinlnn'c
suggestions, Of luxurious case, and perhaps
we might say of modern poctry-at any rate.
modern poetry needs Il change OF air. am
not sure but the south is the most powerful
of the winds. because of its sweet pci'slla-
siyencSs. Nothing so stirs the blood i'll
spring, when it comes up out of the tropical
latitude: it makes men "longcn to Son on
pilgrimascS.'
| did intend to insert here little poem
(as it is quite proper to do in an esS:'y) on
The south wind composed by The Young
Lady Staying with Us, beginning
Out of drifting southern cloud
Ny soul heard the niYht-hird cry
but il never rot any further than this. The
Young Lady said j: was exceedingly difficult

poem, if may SO call it, was began after
Herbert went away. | liked it, and thought
it was What is called suggestive" although
| did not understand il, especially what the

absurd suggestion about two ln>rntlmcaid
people. She said, "Nonsense; but She at

profound truth. And yet | should not like

4 party of soldiers We're sitting together
talking Of their adventures during the war,
md, rs is generally the case, some pretty hard
yarns were told. The conversation finally
turned on promotions. when tall Tcutonic
broke forth with: "Ill tell You something
about that, boys. When joined the cavalry
l hadn't been long in this country, and didn't
understand much English. We were sent
up in the Valley, and at the battle of Win
chester we were ordered to charge Il battery.
Well, the captain gave the order 10 charge,
and away we went in fine style. The Johnnes
opened on us with grape and canister. Many
a horse tumbled over, and plenty of saddles
were emptied. That didn't make amy differ
cnce; we went straight ahead. suddenly
the captain gave the order to retreat. The
whole company turned and went back eX-
cept me. You see didn't understand the
order, so l kept on and charged right i'll
among them; and, by Joe, l captured the
whole battery and brought it on myself.
Now, III tell you how it turned out The
next day the captain was made major. the
first lieutenant was made a captain, and"
Well, what did they do for you;' inquired
listener. "Why, they put me in the guard
house because | wouldn't tell lc."

Before he got down stairs however, his
loving wife of eight short hours shot three
times at him. 4 nervousness upon the
part Of the female shootist, and the agility
of the bridegroom, alone prevented the ne

Notwithstanding bis rather warm re-

charming bride yesterday morning. She
saw him coming up the stairs, and sent
down her card in the shape of skillet to
let him know that she was not in.
Last evening Mr.. Christy was inconsol-
able, also drunk. Mrs. Christy was reso-
lutte and anxious fo- a fight.
At late hour he embarked on a south
ward-bound boat, being satisfied that dis
tance-and a good deal of it-lends en-
chantment to the view, so far as his bride
is concerned.

Boiler Explosion.

CoLuMBUS, June 2I.-A boiler in the
extensive shops of the Ohio Brush and
Wire Works, located within the Wales
(Ohio) penitentiary, exploded this morn
ing, Just after the conyicts had started to
work, with terrible noise and dreadful
effect. The flying boiler tore out the large
three-story building in which it was placed,
making mass of ruins, and tore the out
side walls and roof off from Huff's cooper
shop and George ellis stove foundry, not
far off Pieces Of the boiler were thrown
a tremendous distance. At tie time of
the accident cighty-fye men were in
the brush shop and were just going 70
work. The shock was terrific, and vet no
person was killed outright. Several men
were blown out Of the windows, and fell
with the debris from the fourth story Of
the buildings. One man at work in the
lower story of the boiler house was buried
in the ruins and held for thirty minutes
about the waist, between two timbcrs. The
fremen and engineer in charge of the boiler
were both buried under Il great pile of brick
and timber, but were dug out alive, con-
siderably burned and bruised. Some cS-
capes were almost miraculous. The scene
of the explosion IS desolate enough. Great
piles of brick and stone, timber and ma
chinery lie in a confused mass, while the
manufactured articles and raw material
are strewn over the ground for a long dis
lance. As soon as possible large force
was put to work, aud the men who We're
buried under the ruins were all dug out, and
with the other wounded taken to the large
and comfortable prison hospital, where
scores of good nurses were on hand to care
for them, and they are now all we'll cared
for.

The Green Country ma n.

Years ago, into a wholesale grocery store
in Boston walked tall, misunderstanding
raw -boned man, evidently a fresh-comer
from some back town in Maine or New
Hampshire. Accusing the first person
he met, who happened to be the merchant
himself, he asked:
You don't want to hire man in your
store, do you 2
Well, said the merchant, Il don't
know; what can you dO ?
DO" said the man, / rather guess /
can turn my hand to almost anything.
What do you want done p
wv ell, if | was to hire a man, it wovld
be one that could lift we'll, strong, wiry
fellow-one, for instance that could shout
der sack of coffee, like that yondcr, and
carry it across the store and never lay it
down,
There, now, captin, said our country
man, that's just me. What will you give
q man that can suit yoa -
Il tell you, said the merchant, eff you
will shoulder that sack Of coffee, and carry
1t across the store twice and reyer
lay it down, l will hire you for year, at
500 per month";
Done, said the stranger: and by this
time every clerk in the store had gathered
around and were waiting to join in the
laugh against the man, who, walking to
the sack, threw it across his shoulder with
perfect ease, as it was not extremely heavy,
