IS Is this True. Anna z"

The following thrilling incident was
related recently by Anna Dickinson, in
the lecture delivered by her in Albany.
Last summer, while she was in Pllila
delphia, note was handed to her at
her home requesting her to come to a
certain house in that city at once. She
obeyed the summons and was ushered
into apartments lnxuriously furnished,
in which was seated the madame of the
establishment surrounded by half a
dozen of her boarders." In the
midst was a girl of fifteen, with pretty
innocent face, on which lines had been
traced by the cruel fingers of starva-
tion. She had come to this abode of
sin and asked to be taken in. Do
you know what you are coming to? r.
had been the question of the mistress.
II have not l. ad enough to cat in six
weeks" was the reply. ct think
should like something like this
"Do you know the price you will have
to pay for this2" was the next question.
"No," was the startled reply. Calling
the girls around her, the mist1e ess told
them the story, and into the lap of that
starving child they poured the contents
of their purses, and threw the rings
from their fingers, till the sum of 81, zoe
had been contributed. Then they had
sent for the speaker, and thus she had
found them. "Up! take her out o
this. Do not waste a moment! Fol
Gods sake take her out of this house!'
was the command, which was quickly
obeyed. and a soul saved from thu
mouth of He'll!

who is only twenty-five years of age, is
much respected. At the time Of hls
fathers death he was with the army in
Snez, exactlng an indemnity from some
tribes there who had revolted. His
uncle, Mulay Abbas, kept things in
order at Morocco until his arrival, ut
the same time resigning his claims to
the crown, the late Sultan having ex-
pressed wish to that effect. The
country is reported quiet, and likely 10

Beautiful Incident.

While in Oberlin, the Rev. Newman
Hall was the guest of President Fair
child. In the morning the eloquent
divine obeyed the comfortable EnSlish
custom, and sent his boots below for
an obvious purpose. Later, the rev
srend gentleman appeared in the break
fsst-room in his slippers. Somehow
the President noticed this, and ut the
same time noticed . pair of London
boots, wearing dim countenanoe, and
standing in waiting aud expectant at
titude in another place. The matter
MAS kept as quiet rs an engagement.
but after breakfast and morning levO-
tions, our dip pnifed President might
have been seen bending anxiously over
some London leather. and applying ell"
bow logic, while the learned preacher
pondered over less secular matters, all
unconscious of the hospital enterprise
of his host. This was only another CIR
cumstance confirming the truth that no
man, whether his station be high OF
low. ever comes to Oberlin but that IN
denartlpe he carries with him. in some
form or other, mere or less OF the ma
tive polish Of the place.--Ooertsn

THE DIFFEREscs.--A New York tel

THE DIFFEREsCs.--A New York tel
egram of the I'd inst says:
1t is announced that Colonel Thomas
Scott proceeds to Enrope OH the 10th ot
July for the purpose of closing ntgotla-
tons for loan of seventy Iuillion to
seventy. five million dollars for the Tex
as Pacific Railroad. 1t is understood
the loan will be taken at 80, as he has
refused several off rs at lower figures
made since General Stebbins of New
York rendered the bid Of the syndicat
last year at 81 as we'll as more recent
offer of Fregnier and others to take the
loan ct 80.
1t is very mortifying to the friends Of
the Northern Pacific Road, that while
Col. Scott can procure all the money he
can judiciou-ly use In any of hi r.il Dad
projects, not II bond OF the n. z. X. II
can be disposed Of in Europe Oh any
terms, though it is conceded that the
Northern Road is by far the most prom
l,lng route for trade, and its securities
are much the most ample of the two.
The difference is manifest to all busi
ness men. Col SCOTS roads were nev
er cum bered by any inslde land ring or
Credit Mobili RS, organized to rob th'
Compa, y and swindle the bond-holders.
The Northern Company. under better
management is in fal. way OF recov-
erIny It's credit Which will only be fully
established when the public mind Is
fully assured thai the land ring has no
further control in Its direction. The
location If the the terminus will be u
test of that question. Ii it Is located at
the place to which the interest OF the
road and the public clearly aud unnis-
takably point, the credit Of the Compa
nv will at once be fully established; bW
If. on the contrary, it is gwen to mere
speculative plnt. entirely in The inter
est of the land ring. We confidently pre-
dict that the bonds OF the Company
caunot be sold to sufficient amount to
complete ,he road within the time linz
lteu by their grant. and that Congress
will not give Az exte nsion of time. AT
ter that Tag been det rmined. We may
as we'll begin at once to look for some
other railroad connection with the East
than by the N-rtherh Pacific Railroad.

Puget Sound dispatch.

A DELIGHTFUL TRIP AT this deli
cious season If the year, there is no
mart of the world which affords the ad-
vantages of so delightful excursions as
Puget sound with Its innumerable bays
ant. inlets. The description of this
:. .tir.st sheet of water III the world,
has become hackneyed and needs no
repetition. On Thursday morning We
took passage on the North Pacific at
3 o'clock. and landed ut Port Gamble II
little before Z. After taking nice.
clean breakfast ut the tt, k,let House.
and exchanging cordial greetings with
the genial gt ntlemen Of the rnget Mil
Company, we accepted the invitation OF
Capt. Connick. to take trip to Senbeck
on his beautiful ami stannch little steam

for the captai1's sweet heart; and we
venture the hope that the lady Is as
beautiful after her kind and may prove
AS reliable as the craft, for Connick. as
a sailor aid gentleman, deserves the
best of both. John Condor, mine ho>i
of the Teek,ilet, contributed an abund-
ant outfit for -eplenishing and cheering
the inner III. n, we embarked, with The.
William, as travelling companion,
and after run of about two hours mp
Hoods Canal-the most beautiful di
vision of the waters inclu ed under the
general name OF Puget Sound--we ar
rived at Seabeck about - O'Clock, and
went Immediately in search of the DOM
icile of our friend E. Clayson. who keeps
house of entertainment about half a
mile from the | nding at the mill wharf
Here we funnd somewhat to our sur
prise every essential comfort and con
venience of delightful summer resort
for travellers or families: well construct
I'd buildings, comfortably furnished.
and neatly kept, surrounded by 4
garden and orchard, producing the
greatest variety and finest quality OF
vegetables and fruits, which are served
up to gnests in their most attractive
forms. There is not public house in
the Territory which furnishes better
fare. We returned to our comfortable
quarters at the Teekaltt in the evening
and home by the steamer next day,
having in day and a half made one OF
the most pleasant trips, ..tfording The
greatest variety and mount OF ENJOY

pears he went the other night from an
oyster supper, and on her father appear
ing at the door. he observed: Hello :!
old tadpole where is the floating gazelle?
whore is my'Iove now dreaming? This
seemed to indicate to the old gentleman
that something was wanted. SO he placed
his band sadly on the young mans
shoulder, and turning him partly around
slowed away large amount of leather
under his coat tail and then re,ii ed in

thai it is better to establish at once re-

Innocent beverage then to endeavor to
rear generation to abstain wholly from

abstinence is the true theory. and likely
AZ a whole TO secure the largest num-
