LET Your WIFE KNow.-lt is custom
too common with the men Of the world to
keep their families in utter ignorance of the
situation of their business The wife knows
nothing, has not even an idea Of the amount
of her husbands fortune, whether it is to be
counted by hundreds of thousands. What
can woman kept in such ignorance learn
She spends as matter of course, all he gives
her to spend, with the full confidence that
when it is gone. and she asks for it, he
will give her more.
If an unmarried woman works, she may go
with bold unblushing face, and demand
her wages but wife can demand nothing,
her claim is only for bare necessity; and
generous men, on that account, are too often
indugent, too fearful of letting wife know
the exact state of their finances. "Tis all
wrong.
Husband and wife have a mutual interest; I;
every woman shonld know the exact state Of
hc7 husbands finances, understand his plans,
and aid him, if possible, with her counsels,
and then these terrible catastrophes would
not SO often happen. Many wife who is
plunging her husband deeper and deeper in
10 debt through ignorance, would, if she
knew his embarrasSments, be the first to
save. and with true womanly sympathy and
generosity, help him to reinstate his fallen
fortunes.

FIRST FRosT-A TOUCHING SCENE AT
MEMpHIs.-The Memphis Appeal thus de-
scribes the coming Of the frost at Mem
phis:
"While it was yet twilight, and ere the
doPpiel 81 hld yet nnened :he gates eff day
to the rising sun, hastily attired men ana
women, with semi-nude children in their
arms, were out in the streets breathing the
precious air of the purifying frost. Here,
stopping down one gathered a handful ofthe
glittering hoar-frost, which, pure and beauti-
full, lay upon the earth, and gazing on it
with somewhat of the gladdening spirit with
which the Israelites gathered the mamma in
the desert of Arabia, exclaimed: %, God !!
we thank Thee for this blessing! Others
came and touched with reverential fingers
the pure, cold messenger of health, as If to
satisfy themselves, like the half believing

not some optical delusion; that the wished
for guest had not merely confined its vista
tions to one locality, but enjoyed the free
dom of the city. Here pale-facc, once
handsome woman, with tender babe at her
breast, knelt down on the cold ground to
thank God that the frost had come! Poor
stricken heart! she and her orphan boy were
all that the pestilencc had spared out Of
once happy family. Strong men, bare. head
ed and bare-armed. walked excitedly hithel
and thther rejoicing in the fact that phys,l
clan had come to whose nostrums the whole
faculty must yield precedence as the only true
panacea for the terrible yellow fever. Win
dows and doors were thrown open, wooller
and cotton garments were exposed to the
disinfecting agency of the cold and rarefied
air, and everywhere in the city swell as in
the vicinity of the infected region the enthu
siasm was as marked, if not rs iervent and
joyous"

New ORLEANS, NOVEMBER IA letter
from ex-Judge Merrll, dated Colfax, Grant
Parish, October Goth, says: I'm haste, and
with feelings of horror, write to inform the
public of the action of the metropolitan po-
lice, sent here by Lieutenant-Governor
Antoine, during the absence of Governor
Kellogg. On Saturday night last, the house
of most respectable widow lady, on Red
River, was fred into. near this place; doors
were broken open, and the unfortunate
lady and her daughter, of seventeen years.
taken out, and, horrible to relate, violated.
Neither of the ladies could be found until
late Sunday afternoon. An infant, eighteen
months old, and grand child of ex-Gover-
nor Wells, was found out in the woods,
some half mile from the house, and near the
spot where the foul deed was perpetrated.
The infant was a niece Of the lady and child
of Mumford Wells oldest son Of exc overnor
Wells. The negroes up here all say that it
was the soldiers, and we all believe..that Il
they were not the perpetrators, they instigat,
ed the negroes to the horrid deed of infamy.
1t is said here that when Col. DeKline was
informed Of the outrage, he smiled, and
said his troops were up here for higher
purpose than atresting men for such petty
offences. Antoine is believed to have sent
these creatures up here to give the negroes a
chance for revenge, and one of them told
the writer that he had right now, under
the protection of the United States. to shoot
any white man he wanted to shoot, and vio-
late any woman he met He said to him,
that these were State troops and not United
States troops, and he replied, that the Col
onel had said, at negro ball, the night be-
fore, that he wanted ali the coiored people
to come and see him; that now they could do
as they pleased, as they were under the pro-
lection of his soldiers.

SKEpTIcIsM.-The Cumberland (Md)
Neacs relates the following amusing incident
which occurred at "a camp-meeting last sum-
mer:
An eloquent divine-whom We will desig-
nate as we'll as the Rev. Mr.. W., was address
ing the boys, and sought to impress upon
them the idea that each one of them was
capable of accomplishing some great or good
act. To illustrate his proposition, he related
the story of Jack, the youth who killed the
giant on the bean stalk, and made Jack out
quite hero. evidently deeply interesting
'iieiye-shf.i hnn-ars The interest. however,
was dashed when the minister remarked tuat
the only drawback to the story was that it
was not true. He then asked: "Boys, do
you believe the story?" With one accord
the lads cried out, "No, sir no, sirP The
minister then said he would illustrate his
idea with another story-from the Bible
this time-and related, with all the embel-
lishmcnts of detail, the remarkable account Of
how the youth David slew the giant Goliath
with a sling, and thereby assisted in
vanquishipg hostile army. The boys were
again deeply interested, and listened patient
ly through the recital. When he had con-
cluded it, the minister again inquired.
Now, boys do you believe that story !"
With one accord the lads again shouted,
'No, sir. no sir~ The apparent discom-
fture of the reverend gentleman did not de-
tract bit from the amusement with which
the incident was received by the older per-
sons present. Although he quickly and
neatly escaped from his embarrassment, we
concluded that when he wants to "illustrate"
any more to the boys the Rev. Mr.. W., will
not connect the marvellous in fact and fiction
so closely together.

detectives have succeeded in unearthing

Of the counterfeits detected are half eagles,
or two dollars and half pieces, Of the date
of1951. This coin is said to be an almost
perfect imitation of the genuine, being well
executed and having nearly the ring Of the
true metal. 1t is lacking. however, in
weight, and can be detected by being placed
in the scales. Among the parties arrested
are some ofthe most reputable farmers and
business men in their respective sections OF
Tennessee and North Carolina. Among
others the foreman Of the grand jury OF
Rowan County was arrested at Salisbury on
Wednesday of last week. while'the court was
in session, and carried of to Greensboro to

from the Observer, Mr. William Bryant was
arrested in Charlotte apd taken to Greens.

INSECTS TO END TIE HUMAN RACE.

DR.. lie Conte, the new president of the
association, read paper on the enormous in-
crease and dcstructiveness of insects. The
present actual annual damage done by insects
to crops in the United States is over three
millions of dollars. yet these figures give but
an inkling Of what the increase promises
for the future Just now," says DR. lie
Copte, "a portion of the insect tribes are
sufficiently numerous by nature to infict in
jury upon man and his possessions but
civilization destroys the balance Of life
which naturally keep down increase, and
permits in the case of insects-those previ-
ously Insignificant in numbers-to become
prominent actors in work of destruction" !"
The only methods suggested by this
scientist to avert calamitous plague were
'to abandon the crops and starve out the
noxious insects" or to establish "a system of
checks on their increase equivalent these
existing before civilization interfered" Eth
or Of these plans are, of course, iupracticable
The impending dilemma seems to be an in
crease of insects so vast that the plaques of
Egypt will be more than produced, and that
all vegetation, and finally starving and help
less man will be eaten.
All of which argue an early dropping Of
the curtain upon the aeeting show OF life.
We quote:
81 would not live Away; I ask not to stay
Where storm after stom rises dark DER the way ;
The few lurid mornings that dawn on us here
Are enough for lfes wOes-full enough for its
cheer"
