Crushed In the Ice.

Spring navigation on the Hudson riv-
er has its excitements if not it's horrors.
The propeller N.hpa left Hudson for
New York with load of freight and
some thirty passengers. She crashed
through the ice in safety, and, though
going slowly, passed through the OBJ
structions with comparative ease, not
having to stop once till she reached
point little south of Barrytown at two
o'clock in the morning. At this hour
all the passengers had retired to rest,
several of them occupying berths in the
cabin below the main deck and the bal
ance in state rooms which lined the up
per saloon. Suddenly the steamer came
to dead stop in the centre of huge
field of ice. Backing out she ran into
it again, but did not make much head
way. The next time she went in, the
ice broke away on each shore, and the
action of the tide forced the heavy fields
from the west and from the east against
the Nuhpa, holding her as if in wise,
and cuttinga hole, all of two feetsquare,
in her hull, just astern of midships on
the starboard side.
The passengers were told the boat
was sinking, and hurried on deck, and
the women and children were ordered
into boat, as the propeller was sink
ing. Through some misunderstanding
the bow was lowered much faster than
the storm, and suddenly the tackling
broke and the boat with its occupants
fell to the water, one or two of the Ia
dies and one child being hurled into the
river. This created wild scene, and it
was feared several would be drowned.
Fortunate the boat on the port side had
already been lowered, and into itsprang
two or three of the crew, who pulled it
to the starboard side, where the women
were fast drowning. After superhuman
exertion on the part of the crew the wo
men were rescued. In a few moments
all had got into the boats, and now the
question of reaching land in safety was
serious one. A few of the more cour-
ageous rs soon as heavy ice was reached,
stepped from the boat on it and groped
their way ashore, dragging boat over
the ice along with them. Another par
ty started to do the same thing, taking
the ladies with them, one of the men
carrying long ioist. When within
about one hundred feet of the shore the
ice in front of them suddenly cracked
and moved, leaving a chasm ten feet
wide directly in their pathway. This
was new danger, and again the unfor-
tunate passengers were panic-stricken,
and one of the ladies tainted. The man
with a joist threw it across the chasm,
and, taking the swooning lady in his
arms, walked across the water on the
ioist, reaching the shore in safety. The
balance followed, and all except one
man got across nicely. He fell in up to
his neck, but got out gain all right. 1t
was a narrow escape for the passengers
and crew. The boat, of course, sank.

The Chinese Labor Experiment.

The New York Bulletin has some very
interesting developments relative to the
failure of the Oriental workmen in New
Jersey, which will disappoint the be-
levers in the coming millennium of Chi
nese labor.
In spite of his apparent docihty (ac-
cording to this testimony he manifests
a lamentable proclivity for the highest
wages going, and to check this tendency
a system of isolation and seclusion from
outside influences is necessary. Intel
ligent white men are disgusted at their
keenness in making bargain and the
growing difficulty of overreaching them
is matter of general complaint The
meek, almond-eyed strangers who were
lately glad to work for little or nothing,
demand the highest wages when they
have learned the trade. But there is
this difference between them and other
workmen. If their demands are re-
fused they do not sit down and starve
in idleness. They generally start on
their own account next door to their old
employer, and draw off his customers
by underselling him in his own special
ty. He is apt to be excess
lively fond of smoking opium, and, like
his betters, gets lazy, and disposed to
take his " day off :" as Oh ten as possible.
He is avaricious, too, to a degree, and
is by no means model of honesty.
Many of the force at Belleville have de-
serted nor have they gone away empty
handed, having left debts to quite large
sums behind them even, in some cases,
having borrowed money from their fell
low countrymen, which has not been

She slipped her hand into his arm,
with the old caressing movement he re.
membered so well, and spoke so gently,
using his name for the first time since
he came.
"But, Lennox, dear, if you go away
off somewhere, what shall do?''
He turned suddenly and caught her
to his heart.
"Oh, Mary, Mary |" cried he pas.
sionately, "if you would only come
back to me and love me; if could re-
cover my lost treasure I would not go
anywhere. Oh, my lost love, is it too
late ?"
She laid her face down against his
shoulder and asked, "Lennox, dear,
tell me which you love best, the Mary you
used to know or the fashionable young
lady you found here ?" j.. ...0.. ~

his neck, and said softly, "Then
think you will have to take your old
Mary back again, and pet her and love
her as you used to do; for I am sick
and tired of the fashionable young lady
as you can be, Lennox, dear"
And Lennox, passionately clasping
her to him, begged to be forgiven, and
vowed he would not exchange his pre-
cious little wild rose for all the hot
house flowers in Christendom.

Laura's door little later.

"No; I have been, but I am coming
to my senses" said Lennox.
Lennox and Mary have been sedate
married people several years, but I nev-
er heard that Lennox complained in the
least of his wifes want of convention
ality, or even wished to pursue the ac-
quaintance of the fashionable young
lady whom he met at Scarborough.

A Love That Fifty Years Couldn't Kill.

Mr.. William Hennessey and his bride,
formerly Miss Charity Prince, are the
recipients of much social attention in
st. Louis just now. Mr.. Hennessey is
80 years of age, and Miss Prince fingers
on the sunny side of 7S. The bride
groom until recently resided in Ken
lucky, where he owned large farm,
we'll stocked, and he is now reputed to
be worth $50, 900. The bride had sis
ter Carrie, when she first met Mr.. Hen
nessey, and to her is accorded the
honor of causing the misery and almost
death of the now happy Charity. Mr..
Hennessey first won the heart of Miss
Charity, and was devoted to her until
the green-eyed monster in the shape of
the aforementioned sister stepped
between them. An open rupture was
the result, which finally terminated in
his leading Carrie to the altar.
William lived with Carrie, what some
people term happy life, for some fifty
years. But the grim DESTROYER came for
Carrie few months ago, and she passed
away. After having enjoyed for so long
the happiness of married life, single
blessedness to William was monStonous
and dreary. The old love for Charity
revived, and to her he wrote long let
ter, asking her to forgive and forget the
cruel part he had played. To this let
ter she replied, without delay, assuring
him that the old love for him had never
ceased to exist, and that she only waited
for him to come and make happy the
few remaining years of her existence.
The next train carried the light-hearted
William toward Liberty, Mo. The
meeting was affecting in the extreme,
and many friends of the pair who were
present mingled tears over the happy
m, citing. They were married without
delay, and after the ceremony the bride
began to weep for joy, and kept it up
the entire day.

Novel Horse Pro ectOr.

It is common thing in our cities to
protect the heads of draft horses with a
bonnet or cushion to keep off the blaze
of the sun. But Dublin protector
proposes to extend similar protection
over the entire animal. He makes a
frame of wood, whalebone, iron rods or
other flexible but strong material, and
this he places over the horse, few
inches above him, the frame being sup
ported either by attachment to the har-
ness or to the thills of the vehicle.
Upon this frame he stretches a sheet of
canvass, oiled cloth or sheet rubber,
which forms complete pent house to
to keep off either rain or sun. The
space between the animal and the COW
ering permits free passage of air
which aids Transportation and helps to
keep the animal cool. The principle,
as far as this is concerned, is similar to
that of the odd, oval shaped hats worn
by men in the East Indies from time
immemorial. These comprise light
frame of bamboo slips encircling the
forehead and sustaining covering
lined with cork an inch above, and out
of contact with the head. The slight
rustling of the breeze through ones
hair is said to be very refreshing, and
quite possibly horse furnished with
one of the new protectors" may coin
eide with this experience during hot
summer days.

PremOnitiOns.

A Hartford man missed train the
other night, and regretfully retired to
bed. During the night he thought that
he was on the cars, and looking from
the window, he saw houses, barns, and
trees pass by in quick succession. Sud
denly there was crash and he was ter
ribly wounded. He awoke and found it
was a dream. Morning dawned. He
arose and hurried to the cars, oppressed
with sense of something dreadful
about to occur. He took the train and
fell asleep. Suddenly he awoke, and
looking out of the window, there was
the same scene which had appeared to
him the night before. The cars hur-
ried along at wild rate, and he waited
for the crash. 1t did not come. The
train, as usual, arrived in safety, and the
dreamer is now aconfirmed skeptic upon
the subject of premonitions.

CoNv1oTs PER1sHED. Some days ago
the schooner Lark sailed from San
Diego, Cal, for Eusendas. Among the
passengers were six convicted murder
ers, to be taken to La Paz, Lower Cali
fornia. The bodies of the felons have
been found washed ashore, and chained
together. Pieces of wreck have been
picked up near where the bodies were
discovered, and it is inferred that the
vessel was lost with all hands.

Thy Roses.
The splendor of thy roses fills

The splendor of thy roses fills
The silence of my lonely room;
But something in their beauty thrills
More than the brightness of their bloom
'Tis this; thy dear hand gathered them,
And grouped tn, LESS for me.
In every rose who's Javes kiss,
The wonder Of thy love l see.
Two, rising fair above tho rest,
Together seem to breathe apart,
And one of these, supremely blest,
Lies on the others royal heart.
Oh, thus it is with thee and me
From all the crowded world apart,
My all of life-loyes ecstasy
1 only know it through thy heart.
My rose of men, the lesser flower
Cast not from out thy larger heart
Enough if in her waning hour,
She may but perish where thou art.

The general stock speculation unsettled AZ

the market las long suffered in the shape OF buck

gins melt away like dew before the sun, and at
Last are compelled to go TO the wall and succumb
to circumstances Hence there is no disposition to
buy stocks, otWithstanding the monetary outlook
and so prices keep OIL sinking slowly and gradually
This was the case this forenoon and until after
o'clock when general desire to sell long stocks Oy
those dissted with the longer care OF them started
up a brisk pressure to sell, and prices declined
some two or three points TO the lowest OF the day.
