The bliss of him no tongue can tell,
Who in woman doth confldo;
Who With q woman scorns to dwell, :.
Unnumbered evils will betide.
They make tho daily path oflife
a pleasant journey. etrewed with flowers;
dreary scene OF painful strife
They quickly change with matchless powers.
Domestic joys will fact decay
Where female influence is unknown; ia
Where'er woman holds the sway,
mar is in perfection shown. y
She's never failing to display
Truth IN it6 native lovoliness:
Aheart inclined to treachery, l y
woman never did possess.
That man truo dignity will find,
who tries the matrimonial state;
Who pp1rs contempt on womankind
Will mourn his folly when too late. -.

EARLY LIFE OF PROMINENT OHIAN.--
rLetter in Baltimore Sun, 18th. lin refer
ence in your issue Of Monday morning to
the Hon. William Allen, Of Ohio, the pre-
sent Democratic nominee for Governor OF
that State, you Say "he was born in fIrSl'
mia, and moved to Chiicothe, Ohio, when a
bow" This is true, and for the encourage
ment of poor young men l would state that
Mr.. Allen, when boy, and before he moved
to Ohio, worked at the saddler's trade in the
then small town of Lynchburg, in the shop
of "Uncle John Thurmln," as he was fam-
Iiarly called. One Of his peculiaritieS was
that he carried about with him in his coat
pocket daily small pocket edition of Walk
cr's Dictionary. Whenever he beard word
used, either in conversation or by any pub
lie speaker, that he did not know the mean
ing of, out would come from its hiding
place the aforesaid little dictionary, which
was consulted not only as to the meaning OF
the word, but also as to its proper pronun"
citation. For this be was not unfrequcntiy
laughed at by the boys Of the town, who
seemed not to appreciate the fact that
knowledge was power. Young Allen, how
ever, "cared for none Of these things" and
pursued the even tenor Of his way. BY his
energy and perseverance, in the cultivation
of the gifts with which kind Providence
had endowed him he rose to distinction,
even TO bis being the peer Of Clay and Cal
houn and Webster and Wright, and others
OF equal distinction, who in days gone by
graced the Senate of the United States.

las deaths were Of males and only fifty-four
of females. The total number Of deaths from
all causes was nearly 100000. There We're
2.4S7 deaths from other causes to one death
from lightning, and there were 100, 1888 per-
sons living to every one killed by this cause.
1t is somewhat singular that the lightning
was decidedly more destructive with both
males and females between the. ages of ten
and thirty years than with any others; be.
tween ten and fifteen years Is the most To"
tai time, but even then the number Is very
small Much comfort for those sun ln-
clined 10 be timorous is to be found IN go
inc back further on the record. The deaths
bv lightning in 1870 were only eleven more
than in 1850. while the population had in-
creased more than 100000, and the rate IS
declining in spite of the hasty conclusions
formed BY reading the news OF day. In
1850 there were As deaths by lightning out
of every 100000 deaths from all causes; IN
1870 the rate was only ~. But now, while
only 2o2 persons died from lightning-stroke
in 1870 there were 301 deaths from sunstrokc,
or nearly twice as many. Yet the number
of persons who shudder when they see the
sun rise would bear very small ratio 10
those who shudder at the rising of the thun'
der-cloud. The rate of deaths by sunstroke
has declined during the decade from VI 10
81 in 100000 deaths from all causes, and with
the increase in care and information on the
subject is likely to decrease still more, but II
will always probably be largely in excess or
the lightning rate. 1t is also noticeable that
there were 1.345 deaths by suicide, while
there were only POP deaths by lightnnS-ln
other words, an individual is six times as
likely to kill himself rs lightning is to kill
him"

A sASD-SToRA IN CoLoRADo.-(Pueblo Peo-
pie, July Ballast Monday two Mexican
bows, Jesus Maria and Juan de Ia Cruz Linn
bu.tero, were taking q herd Of TOO sheep
across the sand-hills OF the LOmas del Ar.
reno" about twenty-four miles northerly
from Fort Garland. These sand-hillS ex-
tend out into the San Luis Valley, about If
teen miles opposite the Mosco pass. The
herders undertook to make "short cut "
across the hills instead of going around, as
directed by their father. At first everything
moved gaily; the boys and sheep and dogs
only sank a few inches in the light, white
sand, and they thought how foolish it was
Of old fogies to go around twenty miles
when it was only four across but before
they got half across, one of those sudden
storms arose; up came gentle breeze, the
breeze became wind, and the wind an aw-
full hurricane the sand moved about in
binding clouds, hills changed to holes, and
every hole was Il seething caldron. The
poor boys struggled hard to avert their
doom, and Jesus Maria managed by drawing
his selape over his head and keeping his feet
and climbing as the sand piled up around
him to survive the tornado, but his younger
brother, Juan de Ia Cruz, succumbed to the
sutfocating blast, and as il ship goes down at
sea so sank the brave boy surrounded by his
beating sheep and whining dogs; and
when the storm ceased rs sudden
" as it had commenced, little Jesus
found himself all alone with quiet
mounds Of glistening sand all around him.
and not q trace of the cruel storm nor a
wreck Of the sad disaster could be seen. He
hurried home. where he arrived the next
day, and told bis tale of terror. The whole
plaza turned out in search for the lost body
and to dig out the missing sheep. Up to the
succeeding afternoon they had not recovered
over four hundred sheep, most of them be-
ing found about six feet below the surface
and the natives from neighboring plazas had
flocked to the scene, and were bu>ily engaged
in digging out sheep, saving the wool, ant
feasting on mutton.

Particulars,

Particulars.
WASHINGTON, August 12.- Additional re-
ports from the scene Of the Wawasett disaster
place the loss ut seyenty-two, The friends
of Daniel Lynch, tailor doing business in
this city. are certain that he was among the
lost, judging from the description Of an un-
known man published yesterday. Lynch
was engaged to be married to widow iady
who with her two children were also among
the lost.
The investigation into the cause of the
disaster will begin tomorrow and will as
sumo the form Of suit against the owners
of the Wawasett by the Supervising Inspec-
tor Of Steamboats, of the Treasury Depart
ment. 1t appears that on her last eYentful
trip the owners Of the Wawasett failed to
ask or receive special permit to carry more
passengers than her certificate OF inspection
allowed. II the owners had been granted
such request they would have been CON-
PEELED to have procured an additional outfit.
In the matter of an extra license, the own
erS, having neglected TO procure that neces-
sary paper, have violated the law, the pen
atty of which is fine of ten dollars per pas
senger and to refund the passage-money. 1t
is stated that the owners will also be prose
cuted for carrying eXcursionists without IL
cense. Commodore Rose, the inspector of
hulls, will conduct the investigation. The
Commodore will be assisted by John Z. Ed
gar, inspector of boilers at Norfolk, both OF
whom are old and experienced inspectors,
and entirely dsinterested in the case. In
this connection the following was received
to-day:
