A MINISTER ELoPEs WITH Hrs WIFI

The Rev. l.. G. Herman, of Douglass
,ownship, Montgomery county, over
those head at least sixty winters have
nassed, eloped on Saturday last with
Maria Barto, a widow lady of about the
same age, who resides near Mount
pleasant, Washington township. Berks
county. and anxious and interested par
t;ss are securing the country in search
Of the Youthful runaways, but up to this
time the brave Lewis and his gentle
Maria have succeeded in eluding their
nursuers, and are no doubt spending
their honeymoon in some quiet nook,
there in a lonely cot, the world forget
ting, longed only to lie by the world for
cot. and revel in the supernal blisses of
two souls with but a single thought, two
hearts that beat as one. Verify the
tender passion dieth not. About two
years ago Lewis was married to Maria
against the will of her relatives. The
marriage was soon afterwards declared
null by the court, owing to the lady not
being of sound mind, and she was sent
to the Lunatic Asylum at Philadelphia,
where she remained some nine months,
when she was again brought home and
close watch kept over her. After re-
peated attempts she has at last given
them the slip and hied away with her
lover. The lady in question is very
wealthy. owning very nearly all the prop
erty around Mount Pleasant, from which
iron ore is being taken. Mr.. Herman
was formerly in the Ministry (Reformed)
and had charge OF several congregations
in the upper end of Montgomery and
lower end of Berks counties.-G Reading,
Pa, Eagle, Nov. 81.

LONDON CLIMATE. E.-Infiuenza is the
condition upon which alone one can live
in London now. Sir Samuel Baker,
whose health is still in precarious con-
dition, remarked, yesterday, to friend
that, after enduring the climatic dangers
Of Africa, with hunger and capture for
four years he had returned to London
only to go to bed with Inflammation Of
the lungs, and remain there till now.
And yet some invalids fnd this region
the best for them. Mr.. Motley, who I
regret to say is still seriously threatened
with paralysis, has found the Holland eli
mate inimical, and breads the South, and
has resolved to Winter in London. Ten.
nyson, too, who does not enjoy perfect
health, has found his new hilltop in
Surrey hardly worthy the inscription i,
bears, "Gloria in excellsis," and thinks
of escaping the glorious hight by coming
TO live in London, where he is now resid
ing temporarily in the house Of Lady
Franklin. L Correspondence Cincinnati

Cosr OF A CoNGREssMAN's DEATH.-
The death of member is something of o
perquisite, custom having established the
usage Of maintaining sort of profess
sional mourning on the part of the
House, something after the style OF the
hired mourners of England and Scot
land. If member dies at Washington,
the Sergeant-at-Arms may pay the land
lord of his hotel 500 for having granted
the privilege of death in his house.
Six stalwart men must then watch, with
two reliefs, by his bed during the period
that the body is in the custody of the
House. Better for some of the dead that
they had been more closely watched be-
fore they left the Legislative hsllsl Dep
utes must attend the body to its destina-
ton in the State Of the deceased, unless
the friends claim the right of burial in
the Congressional Burying ground. AL
together, apd l have a definite case in
mind, it costs about $4,000 to bury q
Congressman decently who dies in
Washington. The funeral expenses cost
little more than the back-pay for one
year. Perhaps the back-pay will serve
as funeral expenses for some, without
the benefit of clergy. Gentlemen watch
dogs Of the Treasury anxious to practice
economy, would do their constituency
aud the country o service by dying at
home.-t Washington letter. f'-E

DocroRs AND SEWING MAcHINEs.-The
New York World thinks the sewing ma
chine is the greatest ameliorator of the
condition. Of women that was ever in.
vented. 1t has done more, it says, to
free the entire sex from the slavery OF
the needle than any thing else could pos
sibly do Yet doctors denounce it purely
upon principles Of medical logic, and say
that it is injurious to female health. But
1t enables her to do in two hours the
necessary work which she could not dc
IN less than twelve hours with the needle
Unless, therefore, it is argued, doctors
are prepared to say that woman takes
more injury from two hours at the sew
ing. machine than she receives from
twelve hours at the needle, their dia
tribes against this household blessing &C
for nothing.

A Specimen of Spanish Cruelty.

A most touching instance of hero
Ism, aud one of the most atrocious
acts of cruelty, the truth of which is
vouched for by the most respectable
authority, occurred during the Col
umbia struggle for independence.
The Spanish General Morillo the
most bloodthirsty and treacherous
tool of the Spanish King, was created
Count of Cartagena and Marquis de
la Pueria for service which rather
entities him to the name of butcher or
hangman.
While seated in his tent one day
he saw a young boy before him
drowned in tears. The chief demand
ed of him for what purpose he was
there.
The child replied that he had come
to beg the life of his father, then a
prisoner in Morillo's camp.
"What can you do to save your
father ?'' asked the General.
81 can do but little, but what l can
shall be DONE"
MOrlllO selZed the little fellows
ears and said
Would you suffer your ear to be
taken off to procure your fathers
life ?''
The boy wept, but did not resist
while the barbarous order was exc.
cuted.
"Would you lose your other ear
rather than fail of your purpose ?"
was the next question.
81 have suffered much, but for my
father can suffer STILL" was the an
swer of the boy.
"And now 60 !" exclaimed Morillo,
untouched by his sublime courage; /;
"the father of such a son must die"
In the presence of his agonized
and vainly-suffering SON, the patriot
father was executed.
Never did life picture exhibit such
truthful lights and shades in national
character; such deep, treaohereus
villainy-such lofty, enthusiastic
heroism!

out a pocket-book and handed me a
roll of notes.
Il meant it for you, Tom, /" he said.
Perhaps he dill, but we know the
tate OF good intentions.
1t did not take long to count over
these notes there was exactly five
thousand pounds.
"Now," said /, "Master Charles
take yourself off !"
"You promised" he argued, "not
to betray me-"
"No more, l will if you don't 60.
"She's got ten thousand of her
own," be whispered.
"Be off, or else"
''No l won't, said Charlie, making
up his mind with desperate effort !;
81 will not. I'll make a clean breast
of it."
AT that moment there was bit of
stir, and a general call for the
bridegroom. The bride had just ar
rived, people said. He pushed his
way out to the carriage, and whis-

fell back in a faint. There was a
great fuss and hustle, and then some
one came in and said that the we'd
ding could not come off that day.
Ididn't wait to see anything furth-
er, but hurried off to the bank, and
got there just as the Board had as
sembled. | suppose some of the Di-
rectors had got wind of Thrapstow's
failure, for the first thing / heard
when l got into the board-room was
old Venables grumbling out /: "How
about these Damascus bonds, Mr..
Manager ?" 81 rode roughshod over
old Venables, and tyranized consid-
erably over the board in general that
day, but l couldn't help thinking
how close thing it was, and how
very near shipwrecked had been.
As for Thrapstow, l presently
heard that, after all, he had arran-
ged with his creditors and made it up
with Isabel. He had tongue that
would wind around anything, if you
only give him time, and was not
much surprised at hearing that his
wedding day was fixed. He hasn't
sent me an invitation, and / don't
suppose he will, and I certainly shall
not thrust myself forward second
time as an uninvited guest.
