only II years old-to the beautiful pink
eyed, olive skinned, little footed lady
Aluta-isn't it a sweet name-and the
charming posscssor is said to be as sweet
as her name. But, horrible to add, an
inexorablc custom makes it necessary
that the Emperor marry several other

How happy raust she be, for it is said
that all the looms of Nankin. Canton and

TO custom they were sent some time in

I may mention u thousand rolls of satin

BAD FOR THE BAR.--The Patrons Of
Husbandry have adopted one practice
as q rule Of their order, worthy of imi-
tation by the unregenerate, which is
never TO go to law, and have all dis
putes settled by arbitration. This Is
eminently wise and has many advan-
tages: First, the case comes on with
out delay, and, each man telling his
story, jury OF picked neighbors and
mutual friends decide what IL right.
Lawsuits arise In most cases In mis-
understanding, not In wilfulness.
Only think Of difficulties being settled
In this way, and the dismay oS law
yers and constables and sheriffs! No
more riding in sulky gigs at twenty
cents per mile to summon witnesses;
no more lawyers' fees ut $40 q speech;
no eppeals; no hanging around court
houses and stirring up the sawdust;
and better than all, no more getting
home late ut night after long ride
to the county seat.
