A. Gloucester man hath a
wife worth possessing. Three
years ago she asked him to
give her all the five cent pieces
he had in his pocket each day.
This he did, thinking they
would go, of course, for hair
pins, ribbons and such like
tjimcracks, but what was his
surprise a few day ago, when
his birth day came around, to
receive as a present a gold
watch worth 800, purchased
with the accumulation of these
Efps.'

There is a chance for a labor
ers' strike in Austria. As an
instance of the miseries to
which the laboring classes are
reduced from this cause, it is
related that in the suburbs of
Vienna there is a house with
four rooms, the largest ten
feet by twelve, where seven
teen families, Numbering nine
ty-two persons, live and do all
their work. These families are
not vagrants, but honest, hard
working people, who are re-
duced to such shocking depri-
vations Of comfort from the
low rates of labor and the high
price of rents. .-

Rockville, Conn, says an ex-
change, "boasts of a man who
got married, became a happy
father, buried both wife and
child, married again, and buried
the second wife-all inside of

with great emotion, when hand
ing in for publication the no
tiee of his last wife's decease :

The habit in this community,
which has been so extensively
practiced even by decent and
well-behaved persons, of assign
ing nworthy motives and sell
fish and sinister designs to all
persons who propose a line OF
policy different from their own,
has been very conspicuously
and Extensively exhibited in the
discussion of this very question
of combination and fusion. 1t
has been this imputation which
has prevented combination
heretofore, by deferring timid
and conservative men from
throwing their weight in its
favor, from a fear that they
would be calumniated as War
moth men, as enemies of the
Democracy, and of honest State
government and reform.
This, more than any other
cause, has produced the pres
ent political confusion. A man
who, a few weeks ago, dared to
declare in favor of the PROPOSE,
ton now announced by the
Bee, would have been hooted
down in every Democratic as
sembly. The lack of moral
courage in our prominent citi-
Zens, the ignOble shirking by
those who could have arrested
the mad virulence which has
had so large a sway over par
ties, have produced the most
unhappy results, from which
there is no other way of rescue
and recovery than by aharmo-
NOUS acceptance of the propo-
sition now made by the Bee.

CONsUMPTIoN.-Ihe master
hand of Dickens thus paints
consumption, in " Nicholas
Nickleby::"
"There is a dread disease
which..so prepares its victim as
it were for death which so re-
fines it of its grosser aspect
and throws around familiar
looks unearthly indications of
the coming change dread
disease in which the struggle
between soul and body is SO
gradual, quiet and solemn, and
the result so sure that day by
day, and grain by grain, the
mortal part wastes and withers
away, so that the spirit grows
light and sanguine with its
Tightening load, and feeling
Immortality at hand, deems ii
but a new term Of mortal life
a disease with the gaunt and
grisly form of death; a disease
which medicine never cured,
wealth warded off, or poverty
could boast exemption from
which sometimes moves in
giant strides, and sometimes
at a tardy, luggish pace, but
slow or quick, is ever sure and
certain"

Ambitious young men who
long to WELD a newspaper OF
their own are warned away
from Atlanta, Ga, by Colonel
Rice, who has sjust given up the
experiment of running a news
paper for that benighted place.
He says:
Il have labored hard for two
years and sunk over $500 to
establish the Reporter, md
l have to say that it must 90
down. Atlanta is the poorest
town for the size Of it for a
newspaper in the world. The
people will not subscribe and
the business men will not ad,
vertise. There have been more
newspapers failed in Atlanta
than any city in the United
States. The merchants an6
people have less energy and
pride in a literary way thar
any other people. They art
the most selfish people in the
world. They should be lef
in the dark, where they belong
to grope their way after the
almighty dollar, which they
worship, and lumber on dow
to the devil, where they vii
surely go. 1 am done with th'
newspaper business in Atlant;

A young man in Wheatlant

A young man in Wheatland,
Mo-, recently applied to the
physician for some medicine
for fever and ague. He took
the medicine and died in a few
hours. Two physicians who
were called in tasted the med
icine and both died.
