Breaking a Horses Heart.

A term which has been taken with q
great deal Of allowance when applied
to any disaster in the human family
has now an accepted place in the voOa-
bulary OF those who indulge in hors
talk" King Richard says: They say
women's hearts are easily broken--I
find them tough enough" On the turf
a horses heart is said 70 be broken when
he is ezoelled by another horse while
doing his level best, if that horse, 50
exeelled. does not make powerful and
continued effort to turn the scales again
For instance, they say, if Oecident
has a leading race he does wen enough,
and therefore Brown Dick was not
allowed TO pass him in his great trial /;
but if I" Brown Dick or any other horse
should pasB the California champion
while extending himself to his utmost,
it would break his heart and he
1ouId cease 10 make the necessary eL-
ertion to keep mp the same rate OF speed.
To this h owledge OF the weakness Of
other horses the little goldsmith
Maid " owed the most of her triumphs
for it is now generally understood
that she drives herself with as much in
telligence as any human who can sit
behind her. Mr. Collins, a thorough
admirer of good horses, followed the
little g Maid through one campaign
in the eastern cities, and there discoy-
cred that the mare allowed her eompe,
titor TO have leading race until aftel
passing the hree-quarter pole, and theE
| she went forward with her tremendoul
burst Of speed, held IN reserve for thil
emergency, and By 50 easily ezceIine
that competitor prodnosd that sensation
which turfmen call g breaking thl
heart. She. herself. had to underg,
these trials till she learned the trick
and now she plays it on the others. -

TENNESSEE, OCTOBER %, 1873

It vas q terrible night, that winter
night when she and the century we're
young together. The sun was lost a
s O'clock the snowy night came dowr
like white sheet that tapped around
the house, beat at the windows with its
edges, and at last wrapped it in CLOSE
embrace. In the middle OF the night
they thought they heard above the wind
q voice crying '' 'Christus Christus I" in
a foreign tongue. They opened the
door-no easy task in the north wind
that pressed its strong shoulders against
il, but nothing was to be seen but the
drifting snow. The next morning
dawned on fences hidden and land
scape changed and obliterated with
drift. Duling the day they again heard
the cry of 50 Christusp' this time faint
and hidden like ohild's voice. They
searched in vain; the drifted snow hid
its secret. On the third day they broke
path TO the fence, and then they heard
the cry distinctly. Digging down, they
found the body OF man, a Spanish
sailor, dark and bearded, with earrings
in his ears. As they stood gazing down
at his cold and pulseIess figure, the cry
of ''Christus '' again rose upon the
wintry air, and they turned and fed in
superstitious terror to the house. And
then one of the children, bolder than
the rest, knelt down and opened the
dead mans rough pea-jacket and found,
what think you a little blue and green
parrot nesting against his breast It
was the bird that had echoed mechani-
caIly the last despairing cry of the life
that was given to save it. 1t was the
bird that ever after, amid outlandish
oaths and wilder sailor songs that fear
often shocked the pure ears of its gen
tie mistress and brought scandal into
the Jerseys, still retained that one weird
and mournful cry. se
The sun meanwhile was sinking be-
hind the steadfast range beyond, ami I

part with my wants unsatisied. I had

The Invention Of the Steamboat.

La an article '' From the Potomac to
the Ohe, in Lippincott's Magazine for
October, occurs this paragraph:
+" When the little harb0r at the month
of Sir Johns run was stall more Wild
and lonely than now, James Rumsey, a
working bath-tender at BerkeIy springs,
launched upon it boat that he had in
vented of novel principle and propul-
>ive force. The force was steam, and
Rumsey had shown his model to Wash
ington In 1870. First discOverers OF
steam loOomotion are turning mp every
few months in embarrassing numbers,
but we cannot feel that we have q right
to suppress the claims of honest Rum
sey, the protege Of Washington. The
dates are said TO be as follows Rum
sey launched his steamboat here at Sir
Johns run in 1884, before the general
and throng of visitors from the
springs; in 17Ss, John Fitch launched
another first steamboat on the Delaware,
and sent it successfully up to BurIipg-
ton in 1907, Robert Fulton set q third
first steamboat on the Hudson, the CIer-
mont. Rumsey's motion was obtained
by the reaction of a current squirted
through the stern of the boat against
the water of the river, the current be-
ing pumped by steam. This action, so
primitive, so remote from the principle
Of the engine now used, seems hardly
worthy to be connected with the great
revolutionary invention of eam-travel;
yet Washington certified his opinion
that "The discovery is of vast impor-
tance, and may be of the greatest use
fuIness in our inland navigation.
James Rumsey, with just a suspicion of
the irritability of talent, accused Fitch
of g coming pOttering around his Vir-
ginia workbench and carrying of his
ideas, TO be afterward developed In
Philadelphia. It Is certain that the de-
veIopment was great. Rumsey died IN
England Of apoplexey at public lee
ture where he was explaining his con-
trivanoe." .....

Not for Light Reasons.

In a recent lecture on marriage, ,"
Mr.. Chas. G. Ames compressed much
truth and common sense in the follow
ing terms "In a class Of cases sepa-
ration is right and necessary. It is too
loose and vague to say that {" incompati
bility" IS a sufficient ground for divorce.
There are all degrees Of incompatibility,
and nearly every union is marred
by some degree of it. But where this
incompatibility is deep-seated, radical
and incurable, SO that neither can be to
the other more than a dog is to a cat or
a bird to a beast where one party
proves hOpelessly lost in Ioathsome per.
sonal vices, where one party is persis-
tently faithless to all that is meant by
marriage; where all means of com
ing into kindly relations have been
thoroughly tried and have thor
oughly failed and where the yoke
is a chronic agony and disqual fication
for all life; In such cases 1 think it is
an awful crime not to separate. But
this will not often happen, unless one
party or the other has fallen very low.
Not for IigLt reasons, not in haste, even
for reasons, should law, public opinion,
or private practice, consent to the de-
struction OF household once formed.
The talk of divorce whenever there
is difficulty, is like sending for
the grave-digger whenever there is
sickness. We do not give up even
when the doctor says no hope; ; We
send for the other doctors We fan the
last spark and when all is over, we
place hand on the still heart and ask
if its warmth must forever depart.
Nor do we then hasten to bury till the
dead threatens pestilence to the living.
In this spirit we must treat the disor-
ders TO which the married state is al
ways liable; grudging no pains by
which harmony might be restored !;
welcoming every symptom of GONZALES
cence saying or doing nothing to ag-
gravate or irritate; hoping against hope
to the last never so much as aIluding
to fatal termination till the last throb
of mutual interest has ceased, and the
moral health Of household and eOrnmu-
nifty command TO bury the dead mar
.riRge out of sight"

NUMBER II.
JeEsrson's Poverty.


Mr.. JeffeFsOn's affairs did not mend,
though he enjoyed the able and resolute
assistance of his grandson and name
sake, Thomas Jefferson Randolph and
he resolved, at length, to discharge the
worst Of his debts in the fashion of old
Virginia, by selling q portion Of his
lands. But there was nobody to buy.
Land sold in the usual way would not
bring q third OF its value aud conse-
quentIy he petitioned the legislature to
relax the operation of the law so far as
to allow him to dispose Of some OF his
farms by lottery, as was frequently
done when money was to be raised for
g public object. The legislature granted
his request, though with reluctance.
But, IN the meantime, it had been noised
abroad, all over the union, that the
author of the declaration of independ-
ence was about TO lose that far-famed
Monticello, with which his name had
been associated in the public mind for
two generations, the abode of his prime
and the refuge of his old age, q Mecca
to the republicans Of many lands. A
feeling arose in all liberal minds that
this must not be done; and, during the
spring of 1926, the last of his years
were made for his relief
in several places. Philip Hone, mayor
of New York, raised without an effort,
as Mr.. Randall records, 81, 500: Phila-
ielphia sent S5, 600, and Baltimore S3,-
900. The lottery wss suspended, and
Mr.. Jefferson's last days were solaced
by the belief that the subscriptions
would suffice to free his estate from
debt, and secure home and independ-
ence to his daughter and her children.
He was proud Of the liberality of his
cOuntIymen, and proud to be its object.
He who had refused to accept so much
IS loan from the legislature Of his
state, glorified in being the recipient OF
gifts from individuals. :" No cent. of
this, ' said he, " is wrung from the tax
payer. It Is the pure and unsolicited
offering Of love. ''-AfT. Parton IN the

Yellow Fever.

How 1t Works Upon ats Victims.
The type of the disease varies from
year to year, and every great epidemic
has traits of its own; but the main Tea
lures are the same, and an experienced
and competent physician infalibly re-
cognizes these in twenty four hours.
True, it is impossible for the most skill
full to distinguish between these synp-
toms and those of the Dengue, or ''5rO-
ken-bone fever, for the first night and
day. A man in the enjoyment of IN
common health and strength (for the
delusive disease seems TO delight IN
snaring its victim unawares, to make
the sacrice fat for its dark altar finds a
rigor, or slight chill creeping over him,
followed by pains in the head and back.
and fever, which rises rapidly. The
pains become violent, excruciating, and
the pulse ranges from los to 12O. The
tongue is not coated or furred, but as
sumes a red, CLASSY appearance, and Of
ten swells to far beyond its natural size !;
the gums begin to enlarge, and black
deposit settles on the teeth. The score

ten the bladder becomes dry as q pow

their function. Woe 20 the patient

brain, producing the widest dilirium,
and if not quickly relieved, issuing in
speedy and terrible death. The stom-
ach is disordered, and often there is a
di position to reich the nerves become
prematurely excited, and the restless
ness is indeseribable, while the eyes are
painfully sensitive to light, and the
ears to sound. In some cases the lips,
tbe whole face grow red as crimson.
Usually the full, corded pulse throbs
with siedRe-like stroke-ths other symp-
toms unabRted-for seventy two hours,
when the fever declineg-the pulse still
remaining quick, but like the trembling
vibration of thread. By this time the

ly lift his head, 0r indeed raise an eye

| fact, forward from this time until absO-
lutte, not apparent, convaleseence takes

Yellow fever Is sometimes thought TO
be a high type Of bilious; but there
could be no greater mistake, for count

the liver to be IN good condition; indeed
