tied out of the place which nature and society
would assign her by sensuaity and contempt

she would exalt; the source and mirror of van
ity we see her as a wife, partakiug of the cares
and cheering the anxieties of husband, divi-
ding his toll by her domestic diligence, spread
ing cheerfuness around him for his sake, shar-
ing the decor refinement without being vain
about them, placing all her joys and love in the
man she loves As mother. we find her the

Mintzer's s Nose.

'Max Adeler," tells the following: Before
Mintzer joined the temperance society ne would
some times make beast Of himself by getting
drunk One night some of his companions
finding him asleep on the sofa of the club house,
rubbed his nose with phosphorus for several
minutes, and then took him home. There was
a mirror in the hat rack, and the entry was
dark Mintzer's nose glowed like an aurora
borealis. When he caught sight of the re-
Election in the glass, he remarked that it was a
most extraordinary thing that Mrs. Mintzer had
left the light burning, and he moved up to the
hat rack to turn off the gas. After fun bling
around among the umbrellas and hat pegs few
moments for the stop cock, he concluded that
the light must come from candle, so exerted
himself to blow it out. The more he puffed
the brighter 1t shone Then he seized his high
hat and tried to jam it down over the candle.
AT last he became mad, and snatching up an
umbrella, he resolved to smash that candle il
it took him all night. He aimed terrific blow
at it and broke the mirror into vulgar fractions.
Aroused by the clatter, Mrs. Mintzer came to
the head of the stairs, and observing phos-
phorus light fitting about in the darkness be-
low, she began to scream. But when Mlntzer
at last made himself known, Mrs. MintZer grid
ed herself fer action. She suddenly slid down
the bansters. and sezing Mintzer by the head
light which cleaned from his face. she led hin
up firmly but vigorously. He thinks she must
have compressed the organ with a certain de-
gree of force, for when he arrived at the SECOND
story the cherry glow had disappeared. HI
let's Mrs. Mintzer turn off the gas now, and she
ALWAYS sits up for him when be is out at night.

The idea of a Spinning Jenny.

James Hargreaves dropped upon his knees,
and rolled on the floor at length. He lay with
his face toward the floor, and made lines and
circles with the end Of burnt stick. He rose
and went to the fire to burn his stick. Then
he sat upon a chair and placed his head be-
tween his hands, elbows on his knees, and
gazed iutently on the floor. Then he sprang
to his feet, and replied to some feeble question
of his wife, who had not risen since the day she
gave birth to little stranger, by loud assur-
ance that he had it; and taking her in his stur-
DIV arms In the blanket, the baby In her arms,
he lifted her out and held her over the black
drawing on the floor These he explained. and
she Joined in a small, hopeful, happy laugh,
with his high-toned assurance that she should
never again toll at the spinning wheel; that he
should never again play, and have his loom
standing for want of welt.
Our fortune is made when that is made, J"
said he, speaking of bis drawings on the floor
s'Wbat will you call it?" asked his wife.
'Call it? What, and if we call it after thy
self. Jenny? They called thee Spinning Jen-
n.y. afore had thee, because thou beat every
lass in Stanchi Moor at the wheel. What if
we call it Spinning Jenny
The SPINNING Jenny" could spin twelve
threads, instead of one, as by hand-spinning.
The populace broke the machine to pieces,
and poor Hargreaves heart at the same time
Richard Awkwright, common barber,
caught the idea of Hargreaves, improved upon
il, realized half million sterling, and became
Sir Richard Arkwright, whose son, in 1S43,
died the richest commoner in England

Prnsest Of Cant Lns- ErV-

TIE Protest Of Capt. Joseph Fry before the
U. S. vice consul, after being sentenced to
death, was in Substance as follows:
That he was the master of the American
steamer Virginius, which had all her papers in
complete order, especially the register of the
steamer, crew, list and articles, passenger list,
clearance from Kingston, as also dispatch from
the custom house, &c. Sailed on the 23rd of
October, 1S73 with all his crew and about 1OS
passengers; after few hours at sea sprung
leak and put toto Port Haytieu for repairs,
sailed from the port of Cuimit of that island,
on the 30th day of October, and. while between
the islands Of Cuba and Jamaica, about twenty
miles or more from Cuba, was chased by
steamer and overtaken aud captured about Is
miles north Of Morrant Point, east end Of the
island of Jamaica, about 10 o'clock at night,
the Spanish vessel previously firing several
shots over the Virginius and compelling them
to surrender. The steamer was then taken
possession of by boarding officer, who stated
that he did so on his own responsibility, know
| ing her to be an American vessel and under
the protection of the flag of the United States
of America. The master, Joseph Fry, with
| the crew and passengers, were placed under
guard, and all brought into the port Of Santiago
de Cuba on the lst of November.
On the evening of the same day, after hav-
ing delivered over all the papers belonging to
the Virginius, he was refused admission to ap-
ply to his counsel for aid and protection, and
this was only granted him after being condemn
ed to death with the major part Of his crew,
under no known public law or pretext; and, as
Captain Fry was hurried TO make his prepara-
tions for death, he could make no further state
ment, but declares that the foregoing is his
true declaration, which he signed in jail at two
clock on the 7th of November, 1873, two
hours previous to his execution.
This protest was approved by several of the
foreign consuls, with whom Mr.. Schmitt ad-
vised But Governor Burrie it is said, was
highly incensed at the ccnsuls action, and in
formed him he had demanded the revocation
of his exequatur.
