SEVERE AoQtDENr.-In Virginia, at 2
o'clock, November 9th, 4. L. Brophy, an
engineer at the Ophir mine. met with a
severe and nearly fatal accident, while in
the act of tightening q brake band. Mr..
Ames, the chief engineer, went to the
cylinder and opened the e~scape-cock, al
lowing the condensed water to escape,
which, leaving a vacuum, caused the en-
CINE to make a half revolution, the pis-
ton crank catching Brophy and pressing
him tight between it and the wall. Mr..
Ames, hearing the cries of Brophy,
sprang to the lever and reversed the en-
CINE just in time to prevent the crushing
of the lower part of Brophy's body,
which, when taken out, was found to be
paralyzed.

1t is an established fact, that consump-
ton can be cured but is far better to
prevent the cruel disease from fastening
itself on the system, by the timely use of
a remedy like DIR. Wistar's Balsam of
Wild Cherry. This standard preparation
will speedily cure a cough or cold, and
even consumption often yields to its
great power.

The Roman Sentinel.

There was nothing in Pompeii that in
vested it with a deeper interest to me
than the spot where soldier of old Rome
displayed most heroic fidelity. The ia
tai day ON which Vesuvius, at the foot OF
which the city stood, burst into an erup-
tion that shook the earth, poured torrents
of lava from its riven sides, and discharg-
ed, amidst the noise of a hundred thun-
ders, such clouds of ashes as filed the air,
produced darkness deeper than midnight,
and struck such terror into all hearts,
that men thought not only that the end of
the world had come and all must die,
but that the gods themselves we're expi-
ring-on that night sentinel kept watch
by the gate which looked to the burning
mountain. Amidst unmistakable confu-
sion and shrieks of terror, mingled with
the roar of the volcano and cries of moth
ers who had lost their children in the
darkness, the inhabitants fed the fatal
town, while falling ashes, loading the
darkened air and penetrating every place,
rose in the streets till they covered the
house roofs. nor left vestige of the city
but vast, silent mound, beneath which
it lay unknown, dead and buried for near
ly one thousand seven hundred years.
Amidst this fearful disorder the senti-
mel at the gate had been forgotten; and
as Rome required her sentinels, happen
what might, to hold their posts till reliev-
ed by the guard, or set at liberty ty
their officers, he had to choose between
death and dishonor. \ pattern of fideli-
ty, he stood by his post. Slowly but
surely the ashes rise on his manly form
now they reach his breast, and now, COW
ering his lips, they choke his breathing.
He also was faithful unto DEATH" AT
ter seventeen centuries they found his
skeleton standing erect in marble niche,
clad in rusty armor, the helmet on his
empty skull, and his bony fingers still
closed upon his spear.

Woman.

A woman, notwithstanding she is the
best listeners, knows her business, and it
is a woman's business to please. don't
say that it is not her business to vote, but
L do say that woman who does not please
is false note in her harmonies of nature.
She may not have youth, or beauty, or
even manner, but she must have something
in her voice or expression, or both, which
it makes you feel better disposed towards
your race to look at or listen to. She
knows that as we'll as We do; and her first
question after you have been talking your
soul into her consciousness is, did l please?
A woman never forgets her sex. She
would rather talk with man than an
angel, any day. Womenly women are
very kind critics, except to themselves and
now and then to their own sex. The less
there is oe sex about woman, the more
she is to be dreaded. But take real
woman at her best moment-well dressed
enough to be pleased with herself, not SO
replendent as as to be show and -ensa-
tion, with the varied outside influences
that Sc. vibrating the harmonic notes of
her nature stirring in the air about her
and what has social life to compare with
one of those vital interchanges of thought
and feeling with her that make an hour
memorable? What can equal her tact,
her delicacy, her subtlety of apprehension,
her quickness to feel the changes Of tenn
perature as the warm and cool currents
of thought blow by turns? At one mo-
ment she is microscopically intellectual,
critical, scrupulous in judgment as an
analysts balance, and the next as sympa-
tbetic as the open rose that sweetens the
wind from whatever quarter it finds its
way to her bosom. 1t is in the hospitable
soul of q woman that man forgets he is
stranger, and SO becomes natural and
truthful, at the same time that he is mes
merized by all those divine differences
that make her mystery and bewilder-
ment.

A Hint fer B0reS.

Some time ago there lived gentleman
of indolant habits, in Sussex. who made a
business in winter season of visiting his
friends extensively. After wearing out
his welcome in Ihis,own immediate vicinity,
last winter, be thought he would visit an
old Quaker friend, some twenty miles
distant, who had been school fellow of
his. On his arrival he was cordially re-
ceived by the Quaker, he thinking his
visitor had taken much pains to come SO
far to see him. He treated his friend
with great attention and politeness for
several days, and, as he did not see any
sign of his leaving, be became uneasy,
but he bore it with patience till the morn
ing of the eight day, when he said to him i:
'.My friend, am afraid thee viii nev-
er visit me again
s'Oh yes, SHALL" said the visitor; 81
have enjoyed the visit very much; 1 shall
certainly come again
'.Nay." said the Quaker, Il think thee
viii not visit me again.
s.Wbat makes you think I will not come
again % asked the visitor.
"If thee does never leave" said the
Quaker, show canst thee come again ?"
His visitor left.

For The Last Time.

There is touch of pathos about doing
even the simplest thing ''for the last time" 3"
1t is not alone kissing the lips of the
dead that gives ycu this strange pain.
You feel it when you look your last upon
some scene which you have loved-when
you stand in some quiet city street where
you know that you will never stand again.
The actor playing his part for the last
time, the singer whose voice is cracked
hopelessly, and who, after this once, will
never stand again before the sea of up
turned faces, disputing the plaudits with
fresher voices and fairer forms, the minis
ter who has preached his last sermon
these all know the hidden bitterness of
the two words, ''never again" How they
come to us ON birthdays, as we grow older.
Never again young-always nearer and
nearer to the vely last-the end which
is universal, the ''last thing which shall
follow all last things, and turn them, let
us hope, from pain to joys. We put
away our boyish toys with an odd head
ache. We were too old to walk any
longer on our stilts-too tall to play mar
bles on the side walk. Yet there was a
pang when we thought we had played
with our merry thought for the last time,
and lfe's serious. grown-uP work was
waiting for US. Now we do not want the
lost toys back. Life has other and larger
playthings for u.s. May it not be that
these, too, shall seem in the light of some
far-of day as the boyish games seem to
our manhood, and we shall learn that
death is but the opening of a gate into the
new land of promise?

The Valley Of Diamonds.

The veritable Valley of Diamonds, tn.
identical vale that has filed our mind.
with extravagant fancies, after reading O
the wondrous voyage of ''Sinbad the Sail
or" has been discovered at last. 1t il
said to be near the head waters of the
Rio Colorado Chiquito. 1t was reported
that company had been formed in Sar
Francisco, with a capital of S1O,OO0,O0C
to work these fields, and that they had al.
ready 100000 worth of diamonds in the
Bank of California-among others one
rough diamond weighing 102 carats, and
quart of small diamonds, rubies, sap
phires, and emeralds of great value. AL
bert G. O'Neal, William Lent, Thomas
II. Sclby, and Maurice Dore, of San
Francisco, and Samuel L. NJ. Barlow and
George B. McClelland, of New York were
said to be the trustees of the company.
The process of washing out the dia-
monds is rather expensive, and will be
entirely avoided in the fields near the Rio
Colorado Chiquito. There nature favors
diamond digging, and if the most reason
able expectations are fulfilled, this district
will become the diamond land of the
world. 1t is country full of wonders
and of rare natural beauty. In the val
ley of the Colorado Chiquito are some of
the most ancient Aztec ruins, and some of
the diamonds were found in the excava-
tiOns In the cliffs in which there are still
relics of the Aztec princes. One of the
diamonds weighing thirty carats, and of
an Opaque, almost black color, was found
on one of these cliffs, together with a
rusty sword, and several ornaments of
silver and gold worked in a very curious
manner.
The three miners who penetrated into
the interior of this marvellous region found
in many of these ruined, desolate places,
diamonds of considerable value. Besides.
they found in all these wonderful regions
west of the Rocky mountains, through
which they travelled, evidences of tremen-
dous volcanic upheavals, of the greatest
aqueous abrasions and chemical transfor-
nations, and wherever these evidences
were strongest, there were also indications
of diamonds, emeralds, rubies and sap
phires.
1t is reported that multitude of dig
gers intend to start at once for this newly
discovered Utopia. 1t would be well
however, to have these reports well au-
thenticated before investing largely III
this somewhat cloudy vale of Arizona,
unless they are particularly anxious to
part with a superintendent portion of their
means. But at present the diamond fever
is raging largely, and bids fair to become
a furore equal to the gold mania which
carried so many people to California,
many years ago, to be disappointed.

An AllfgGry.

Once or twice little leaf was heard to
cry and sigh, as leaves often do when q
gentle wind is about, And the twig said
''What is the matter, little leaf?'
s'The wind" said the leaf, '.just tol d
me that one day il would pull me off and
throw me upon the ground to die
The twig told it to the branch, and the
branch told it to the tree
And when the tree heard it, it rustled
all over and sent word back to the leaf:
''Do not be afraid hold on tightly, and
you shall not go off till you want to-
And so the leaf stopped signing, and
went on singing and rustling. And it
grew all summer long till October And
when the bright days of autumn came,
the leaf saw all the leaves around becom-
ing very beautiful. Some were yellow,
and some were striped with colors Then
it was asked the tree what it meant.
And the tree said
All these leaves are getting ready to
fly away. and they have put on these col
ors because of their joy"
Then the little leaf began to want to
go, and grew very beautiful in thinking
of it. And when it was gay in colors, it
saw that the branches of the tree had no
colors in them, and so the leaf said:
''Oh, branch why are you lead-color-
ed, and we golden?'
'.We must keep on our work-clothes, %
said the tree, .'for our work is not yet
done; but your clothes are for holiday,
because your task is over.''
Just then little puff of wind came
and the leaf let 60 without thinking of it,
and the wind took it up and turned ii
over, and then let it fall gently down un
der the edge of fence, among hundreds
of leaves. and it never walked up to tell
us what it dreamed about.-Children'

there is no wood in greater demand than
sound willow; it is light. smooth, soft,
tough, and will take a good polish, and
does not easily burn. 1t will bear more
pounding and hard knocks, without splin-
ter or injury, than any known wood. and
