Nor LOCATED. The Nashville
Union and American says that fsMr.
Vanderbilt has made no gift nor en-
doWment to any college. Our un-
derstanding is that he made an offer
with conditions, of $500, 900 to the
trustees of the Central UniYerersity
of the Methodist Episcopal Church
South to build a university; thst
that offer has been accepted byt
trustees and referred to the Commo-
dore; that it is the wish, aye, the ear
nest desire, both of Mr.. Vanderbilt
and the trustees, that this great IN
stitution shonld be established here
in or near Nashville. But, to locate
it here, something must. be done by
Nashville or her citizens. We can
not get the institution without en-
effort. Money and brains must
combine to bring it here. We know
whereof we speak. 1t may be prop
er for us to say that the conditions
of Mr.. Vanderbilt's offer, not, his
gift can not properly be made
known to the public until he receiv-
es and acts upon the proceedings
and determination of the trustees,
who recently met in Nashville"

4 HUSBAND SOLD.

Some years since, when all the world
was mad upon lotteries. the Irish cook Of
a middle aged single gentleman drew
from his hands her earnings and savings
Of some years Her employer was aux-
ions to know the cause. aud she told him
that, having repeatedly dreamed that a
certain number was great prize, she
had bought the whole ticket. He called
her tool for her pains, and never lost a
chance to tease her on the subject She
seemed to take his ,aunts in good humor,
saying 1t would all turn out rightly and
by One morning he opened his paper
at breakfast aud saw it announced that
the very numbers which Bridget had
dreamed and bought had drawn the great

Bonnie Christie

Two boys were in school room alone
together, when some fireworks, contrary
to the masters express prohibition, ex-
ploded. The one boy denied it; the other,
Bonnie Christie, would neither admit
nor deney it, and was severely fogged
for his obstinacy. When the boys got
alone again
"Why didn't you deny it % asked the
real delinquent
because there were only we two, and
one Of us must have ied,' said Bonnie.
'"Then why not say I did it ?''
Because you said you didn't, and I
would spare the liar
The boys heart melted-Bonnie's
moral gallantry subdued him.
When school resumed, the young
rogue marched up to the masters desk,
and said, ''Please sir, I can't bear to be
a liar-I let off the squibbs,'' and burst
into tears.
The masters eyes ghstened on the self
accuser, and the unmerited punishment
he had inflicted on his schoolnate smote
his conscience Before the whole school,
hand in hand with the culprit, as if they
were paired IN the confession, the master
walked down 10 where Christie sat, and
said aloud with emotion
Bonnie, Liable and [ beg your par
don, we are both to blame.
The school was hushed and still, as
older schools are apt to be when anything
true and noble is being done-so still,
they might have heard Bonnie's big boy
tear drop proudly on his copy-book, as
he sat enjoying the moral triumph which
subdued himself as well as the rest and
when, for the want of something else to
say, he gently cried,
''Master, forever p the glorious shout
Of thesscholars filed the mans eyes with
something behind his spectacles, which
made him wipe them before he resumed

The First American Newspaper,

The story of the first American news
paper, brief as was its life, is full of
curious interest. Seventy years after
the landing of the Pilgrims on Plymouth
Rock, and two hundred and fifty years
after the invention of printing, news
paper was issued in Boston. 1t lived one
day, and only one copy is known to have
been preserved. The copy was discover
ed by the historian of Salem, the Rev.
j. b. Felt, in the Colonial State-paper
Office, in London, while engaged In re-
searches relating to the history of his
own city. This pioneer of American
Journalism was published by Benjamin
Harris at the London Coffee house,
Bston, and was printed for him by Rich
ard Pieace on Thursday, the 25th of
September, 1890, nearly two centuries
after the discovery of the New World by
by Columbus. The paper was printed
on three pages of a folded sheet, leaving
one page blank, with two columns to
page and each page about eleven inches
by seven in size. Harris proposed to issue
his paper once month, or oftener if
there should be '.glut of occurrences
His first and, as it turned out, his only
number, contained several columns of
home and foreign gossip, without word
of editorial comment. Unfortunately
for the success of his undertaking, he
printed one or two items of local and
military news which set the official busy
bodies in ferment of Indignation. The
legislative authorities solemnly deter
mined that the paper came out contrary
to law, and that it contained reflections
OF a very high nature To prevent Mr.
Harris from issuing a second number,
they forbade ''any thing in print without
license first obtained from those authori-
z9d by the governmet to grant the same. -
In this way the first American newspaper
came 70 grief; and but for the acciden-
tai preservation of a single copy in Lon
don its very name would have passed into
oblivion.-From Newspapers and Edi-

AN ADROIT Sv INDIE.

The other day, at about twelve m., =
carriage, elegant enough in all its appoint
ments to be u private urc-out, drove
up to the door Of one OF the largest jew
clry establishments ON Chestnut street,
not far from Twelfth, and from it de-
scended gentleman, at least to all ap-
pearances, attired in the most fashionable
manner. SauhteTing inside with an easy
grace, he requested to see some jewels,
stating that he desired to make large
purchase. He carried in his hand hand
some case, or bag, which he deposited on
the glass before the clerk who stepped
forward to wait upon him. He was very
particular in his choice, but at last Sc
lected about 1000 worth of jeweiry of
various kinds and styles. As the clerk
was about to put the numerous purchases
little into one large receptacle, the tran
ger said "Wait a moment We can do
better, and opening his case. which still
remained upon the counter, he took from
it and handed to the clerk ueat box
with key, sufficiently large to hold all
his purchases. Into this the clerk tut
tie jewelry, and handed it back to his
customer, who locked it, leaving the key
in the lock, and replaced it 10 the bag,
closing the latter. Then putting his
gloved hand into the brest- pocket of his
coat, as if to take out his pocket-book,
he exclaimed in great surprise, well,
how forgetful am. | have left my book
and money at the hotel | must 20 back
and get it. Very careless of me, very,
You will, of course, want to keep this

bag, he again took out the little box and
handed it to the clerk Its very ar
noyiDg, but l will drive right to the Con-
tinental, and be back in few moments"
With few common place remarks the
elegant gentleman returned to his carri-
age, and was seen to drive away in the
direction of the Continental. taking with
him the nice and innocent little bag he
had brought. They waited at the store
for him long time to come back In
fact, he hasn come back yet AT last
light dawned upon the terrified clerk
and he reached for the beautiful little
box with the beautiful little key. ''Oh,
it's all right of course" he hoped in
spite of his suspicious. Something has
detained the gentleman, but [ may as
well make sure" He is sure now. The
beautiful little box with the beautiful
little key contained old worthless iron
padlocks. NJ news OF the thief Every
