DELIGHTFULLY."- ROMANTIC.

The marriage of George Marshall and
Ellen Mayfeld, which occurred at the
Grand Hotel few days since, was sn event
highly spiced with romance. The couple
first met in the troublesome times of 1862,
at farm house on the road between Hsr.
per's Ferry and Leeehbnrg, when Marshall,
as Union soldier, attached to a New Jer-
sey regiment, rescued the lady from out
rage at the hands of two Confederate
soldiers. After the battle of Antietam they
met again, when Miss Mayfeld, attended
by other ladies', was ministering to the
wounded upon the battle field. In q
wounded lieutenant, who was lying in a
barn, she recognized her rescuer, and pro-
cured his removal TO his fathers residence
in Adams county, Pennsylvania. where she
nursed him tenderly until his recovery.
Marshall was subsequently assigned to
a distant department. In time
his letters remaining unanswered, he con-
sidered her debt of graft tude Cancelled, and
abandoned him for some older love. He
came to California at the termination of the
wsr, and settled in business at San jose.
A few days since bis eye caught the name
"Miss Ellen Mayfeld" among the list of
overland passengers. E!ated with hope, he
lost no time in proceeding to Sacramento to
meet the train that bore the object of his
sffecsions and the picture of his reveries
through the long years Of separation.
The meeting was mutually happy, and
the marriage announcement that followed
shortly after tells the remainder of the story.
The estrangement had been caused by the
intercepting of letters by a meddlesome
person, supposed to be interested in the
breaking up of the match.-Sdn Francisco

CINCINNATI.
Sundays Fire.

CINCINNATI, June 10.-It has been def
initely ascertained that 995 barrels of coal
oil was the full number burned Sunday.
This was forty thousand gallons. It's now
believed that, the place was fred by two
unknown confederates of man convicted
about month ago and sent 10 the Work
house for stealing coal oil in small quantities
from that place. An investigation will be
prosecuted.
An Elevator Wiped Out Last Night.
a fire occurred tonight, shortly after 8
O'Clock, in A. Buchanan & Co.'s coal eleva-
tor, corner of Smith and Water streets.
Loss total. The elevator cost twenty
eight Thousand and was valued at twenty
thousand. Insurance ten thousand in Gin
cinnati companies, The boiler of the
elevator burst during the fire. The alarm
came from the same box as the fire on
Sunday. Fifty thousand people are esti-
mated to have 1ocked to see it. The fire
started near the boiler room, but is thought
by some to be the work of an incendisry.
The engines had the fire totally extinguish-
ed in an hour. A brisk rain was falling at
the time.

HAvCHING OSTRICH EGGS.

A practical application Of the "Incubatorn

ems have been already Matched this season;

csption amounting to 155. OF forty
eggs pllced Ia ths apparatus at one time,
it is thought. that for.y two viii produce

SHAMoKIN, Pa, June 1O.-This after
noon an explosion occurred in the Henry
Clay Colliery, operated by The Philadelphia
and Reading Coal and Iron Company, near
this place. The colliery had not been in
spected for some time, but was always con-
sidered safe. 1t has the capacity for mining
5000 tons of coal per month, and sixty-dVe
men are employed in it.
Conrad Drumheir the inside boss went
into an old working on the water level,
when an explosion Immediately followed,
caused, lit is thought, by the fire damp being
fired which communicated with the air
ways from the water level into the slope
below, where the men worked.
% The miners in this section of the coal
region, not being accustomed to the black
damp, thought it was blasting powder that
had been set on fire, and they remained IN
the SLOPE until almost overcome with the
black damp and then stating to come up
met the body of the after damp and fell
senseless.
The ronger men managed to get out
however and gave the alarm to guide the
others who followed, but on reaching the
up VI buC 5iOpO buO1 AOh Oe'A1 DSAH6 SA-
pletely overcome.
Jno. Hays, the outside boss, on hearing
the alarm, Immediately went to their res-
cue. After proceeding about 500 yards be
fell face downward in pool of water and
was drowned. Enoch Maginski was found
drowned by bis side. Eight men were
brought out dead.
There was no caviDg in Of the mine as
first supposed, and there was no fault in the
ventilation. The accident resulted from
old gas exploding in disused working.
Up to 10 p. NJ. ten dead bodies were ta-
ken out. Many OF the men from the sur
rounding m nes came to render assistance.
The excitement was intense, wives and
children rushing to the scene Of the disaster
and finding their husbands and brothers
either dead or gasping 1or breath, while
others were eagerly Watching the arrival oi
friends on the slope wagons from below.
There were fifty men in the slope at the
time of explosion, thirty-fiVe OF whom are
kno wn to have escaped and will recover.

JOURNALISTIC COMPETITION.
Z From the Memphis Avalanche.


Az srticle on Journalistic Competition"
In the Atlanta Sun contains SO many truth
full observations in exposing falscies that
we regret not having space for 1t entire.
To the followiHy we direct the attention OF
all newapaper publishers whose lack OF
business ideas induces them TO regard jour
nalism, not as business, but as q grand
raid on the useless strongholds OF cheap
glory:
"Nothing has done more to cripple the
usefulness and business Of the press than
uuprofessional competition. 1t is prsc-
tice to be condemned by all good and true
men of the press: Honorable competition
is to be7expected; but when me pursue a
course of underbidding for advertising to
such OF. extent as 10 reduce 1t TO s5ArVa-
tion point. then it becomes disyrxcefGl.
Honorable competition does not lie in such
competition. 1t is not the low prices Of
work that constitute real composition.
Real composition is in producinE q paper
fhe merits of which recommend it to pub
lie patronage and higher rates of adVertis
inc as the paper becomes more valuable,
bV reason of It's extensive circulation. 1t is
generally pretty certain evidence of a pa
per's worihlessness as an advertising me-
the lowest figures"
Any es' a6lished newspaper conducted on
business principles, and rendered sufficient
ly attractive for the public to seek is col
1mns for facts or opin ons, will become q
pecupiury success. But this result is not
reached by the putting and blowing to
which some journal sts resort in the vain
hops Of deceiving the public. They de-
ceive only themselves; for, after all, the
columns of their papers are mute though
unimpeachable witnesses for or against
them. "FiIling up with "dead'' adver-
tisements: /. e.: printing them after the
time for which they were inserted has ex-
pired, is resorted to by some publishers to
make a showing of busiress This, 10
Journalism, is practice similar to that in
In other business pursuits of psrading emp
ty boxes in lieu of goods. The object is TO de-
ceiye, but everybody sees through these
thin devices, and their authors alOne suffer.
Every advertisement In newspaper should
represent, in cash, the regular rates charg
ed by the journal 10 which 1t appears
When it does not it is because: the pub
Usher cannot afford TO fill the space with
live matter: and 2-because h9 is seeking
nv this species Of fraud TO make hctitlou;
showing of patronage. ID the end this pol
icy is ruinous to those who employ it
0Busipess is business" and artiice OF thl
kind never paid printers or paper manqtac
turers; for it is an attempt to revt rse bus
iness principles; and, naturally enough, |
is oftenest resorted to by publishers who
brief intervals puff and blow about thei
extraordinary pecuniary success, and the
terrible pressure on their advertising col
