Calculations are more or less speculative,
owing to the meagre returns. Indications
are favorable to the election of Maynard

The race between Freeman aud Brown
is close and doubtful, with chances very
slightly in Browns favor.
1t is believed that Atkins and b right
are the only Democratic Congress men

The Legislature is probably evenly di-

fGeorge Macdonald. one of our best writers,
contributes to Good Words the following tender
philosophy concerning the great problem of all
times-The Baby:l
Where did you come from, baby dear2
Out of the everywhere into here.
Where did you get the eyes SO blue?
Out of the sky. as came through.
Where did you get that little tear?
/ found it in waiting when got here.
What makes your forehead so smooth and high ?
- soft hand stroked it as went by.
What makes your cheek like warm white rose I?
saw something better than any knows.
Whence that three-cornersd smile of bliss?
Three angels give me at once a kiss.
Where did you get tais pretty ear?
God spoke, and it came out to hear.
Where did you get those arms and hands2
Love made itself into hooks and bands.
Feet. whence did you come. you darling things?
From the same box as the cherub's wings.
How did they all como just to be you?
God thought of me, and SO grew.
But. Ifrow did you come to us, you dear?

Baby Detained for Fare.

The London (Ont.) Aduertiser says
On Wednesday last, a woman with
baby in her arms got on board the cars
of the T. G. and B. railway, somewhere
between Orangeyille and this point.
When Conductor Lewis went around to
inspect tickets the woman stated that
she was very poor and had a sick baby.
She nursed it very tenderly to this point.
Upon arrival here Mr.. Lewis thought
matters did not look just as represented,
the baby being very quiet, SO he deter
mined to detain the infant until the
fare was paid.
Remonstrance, of course, was made
at Mr.. Lewis heartless conduct, but all
to no purpose; the baby was taken to
the ticket Office, and Mrs. Kelly-for
that was the woman's name-was obiig-
ed to go home without her offspring.
Upon examination, the sick child was
found to be nothing more than a bun
die of clothes tied up into shape,
child's cap on what represented the
head, this being formed by string tied
round the neck. 1t is now being care
fully tended at the station until it Is
called for by its parent.

From Wealth to Poverty.
From the Chicago Tribune. June Is.


From 1858 to 1867 the name of Bennett
Pieters was very well known in this
city. It was connected with the Red
ular beverage. His income was large
one, but he spent it easily, hence when
calamity came upon him he had moth
ing to fall back upon. In 1867 some
individual, thinking that he also might
make little by going into the bitter
business, began the manufacture of the
Red Cloud Bitters. Pieters resented
this, as an infringement of his rights,
and brought suit to have his rival en-
Joined. The matter was tried in the
United States Court An expert chem
ist analysed Peters productions, and
found they consisted of poor whisky,
favored with tansy, dogfennel, jimson
weed, or some other substance, which
possessed no special medicinal virtues.
Ultimately the Court decided that his
rights had not been invaded, and that
Red Cloud and Red Jacket might have
separately and Independently originated
bitters. This hurt Pieters, but not half
supposed that his bitters owed their
virtues to ingredients unknown to the
white man, gathered at midnight in the
primeval forests, by grim Indian
chiefs; or duslzy Indian girls, dark, but
comely, like the tents of Kedar, or the
curtains of King Solomon, the secret
having been specially communicated to
Pieters under circumstances of so pri-
vate a nature that they never became
public. When the illusion was dis
PEELED, the sale of the Red Jacket stop
ped, and Peters income diminished.
The less money he had the more he
drank. He gotinvolved in trouble with
his partner, and finally, in 1869, went
to Washington Territory, in the hope
of bettering his fortunes. He returned
from there few months ago, and, after
lettering around the city doing nothing
last Monday he enlisted as cavalry re
cruit in the regular army, and embraced
this last desperate resort of reduced
gentleman.

that night to accompany him, unknown
to the friends with whom she was stop
Plug, to public hall. Once there, the
innocent girl had been persuaded to
drink wine, until bewildered by its
fumes, and relying upon the honor of
the man she loved, she had yielded to
his persuasions and consented to finish
the night with him by a ride to the
| Cliff, and return in the morning with
some plausible excuse for her absence.
What his intentions were may be in
| ferred. 1t was in pursuance of this
| scheme that they entered Billy's cab; !;
but the losing of the earring was the
cause of the catastrophe which followed.
She, conscious of doing what her friends
would not approve, bitterly reproached
him and herself.
The earring was peculiar one, which
had been made to order for her by her
father, and was well known in the circle
of friends in which she moved. Its
absence would be instantly remarked,
and her excited Imagination pictured it
as being found, and presented as proof
of her nights folly. She pleaded with
him to find it, and finally declared that
the driver must have picked it up. So
completely had this idea taken posses
sion of her, and SO determined was she
that the jewel must be recovered, that
he had been compelled to take her to
the hotel and leave her while he
prosecuted the search. The idea that
the driver had it gained complete
possession Of him, and he resolved
to dismiss the cab and follow the dri-
yer home, trusting to chance to en-
able him to watch him when alone,
thinking that he would surely take the
trinket from its hiding place if he had
it, from curiosity if nothing more. He
accordingly paid him, and it being about
time to get home, Billy had gone straight
up the hill instead of stopping, as usual,
at his stand. Beale had followed him.
and finding that the board shanty fur
nished ample facilities, had climbed up
to where he could have an uninter-
rupted view of the room.
Here he claimed to have seen Billy
take the earring from his pocket,
whereupon the watcher broke the win
dow and engaged with him in the hand
to-hand struggle which cost one of the
men his life. When he had told this
much of his life he turned upon me
again with that wild look and cried:
You don't believe me; nobody be-
lieves me. I'll prove it to you'll I'll
serve you as 1 did him I" and seizing
the seat upon which we were sitting, he
attempted to wrench it from its fasten-
ings. The watchful officer, seeing that
the paroxysm was coming on, quickly
grappled with him, and before he could
do any injury he was safely ironed, and
as the cars passed the junction he was
transferred to the other train, wonder
ing all the way whether what had
had heard were the vagaries of crazy
man, or whether had really found the
of the murder mystery.

Garrick and the Coachman.

When Garrick was last at Paris, Pre-
vile, the celebrated French actor, in
vited him to his villa. Our Roscius,
being in gay humor, proposed to go
in one of the hired coaches that regu-
larly ply between Paris and Versailles,
on which road Preville's villa was situs-
ted. When they got in, Garrick ordered
the coachman to drive up; but the fell
low answered that he would do so as
soon as he had got his complement of
four passengers.
A caprice Immediately seized Gar
rick; he determined to give his brother
player specimen of his art. While
the coachman was attentively looking
out for passengers, Garrick slipped out
at the door, went round the coach, and,
by his wonderful command Of counte-
nance,-a power which he so happily
displayed in Abel Drugger,
himself upon the coachman as stran-
ger. This he did twice, and was admit
ted each time into the coach as a fresh
passenger, to the astonishment and adj
miration of Preville. Garrick stepped out
a third time, and, addressing himself to
the coachman, was answered in surly
tone, "that he had already got his COM
plement," and was about to drive of
without him, when Preville cried out,
Let the stranger in; he is a small
man, and we can accommodate him
without discommoding ourselves"
The plea prevailed, and Garrick was
permitted to enter the coach.

A TOuching Incident.

During one of the most tremendous
snow-storms ever witnessed here, last
winter, writes a Newfoundland CORE
spondent. a poor widow left her home in
search of her only son, boy of 16
years of age, who had gone out in the
morning wood cutting, with several
others. Unable to bear her anxieties,
the poor mother rushed out into the
binding snow-drift, hoping to find her
boy, and that her feeble arms might in
some way help him homeward. After
struggling on for several miles she met
the party, who were on their return. By
this time che was utterly exhausted and
unable to retrace her steps. What was
to be done? She sank down in the
snow, worn out with fatigue and hun.
ger. The little party of boys were quite
unable to bear her among them home
ward, and to remain with her would
have been certain death to them all. 1t
was agreed that they should cover her
as well as possible and return to the
village for help. Her son, however,
nobly refused to leave his mother,
though to remain was, in all probability,
death. When the lads gave the alarm
in the village a number of men, at the
peril of their lives, went out to rescue
the mother and son. Their efforts to
find them were, for several days, fruit
less. They were finally found under a
cliff, frozen to death and locked in one
another's arms. "In death they were
not divided" for theirs was Glove
stronger than DEATH"
