HOW THEY SPENT THANKSGIV-
ING.

Two of our neighbors are named John
Briggs and Jonathan Biggs. and it hap
pens. most unfortunately, that they live
next door to each other. The letters and
the packages of the two are constantly
getting mixed, and Biggs has opened so
many of Briggs letters, while Briggs
has peeped into SO many of Biggs', that
bad feeling was long ago excited, and
for several months they have not spoken
to each other. On Thanksgiving, how
ever. there was an open rupture between
the two families. Both Biggs and Briggs
ordered turkeys. which were sent home
Oh Thanksgiving morning. 1t so hap
pcned that Biggs' grocer sent his turkey
to Briggs, and the Briggs accepted it,
supposIng that it was present from one
Of their friends. When Biggs and his
wife came home from church, the SER
want, in great CONSERVATION. told them
that the turkey hadn't come, and there
was nothing for dinner Biggs went of
in hurry to the grocer's. and the boy
explained where he had left the fowl.
Biggs then rushed back and rang Briggs
door-bell furiously. Briggs himself came
out. and Biggs fercely demanded his
turkey. High words ensued. and at
last Briggs, in furious rage, slammed
the door. darted back 10 the diningroom.
seized the turkey which was on the din
ner-table, and opening the window hurl-

through Biggs' glass sash. and hit Mrs.
Biggs on the head, mixing stufing with
her hair and daubing gravy and drum
sticks upon her dress. Biggs. frantic
with wrath. hurled the fowl back again
and smashed Briggs window. Then
Briggs returned the turkey with fresh
violence. Then each went into bis own
yard and spent the remainder Of the
day handing that miserable bird across
the fence 10 each other On towards
evening it wore away with 30 much
handling. and at last. when nothing but
the neck remained. Briggs buried that

A WASHINGTON ROMANCE

A beautiful young widow appears in
society this winter whose story is very
romantic. Three years ago one of the
bellies of Washington was lovely girl
who passed most of the season (her first
in society with Mrs. Admiral Lee. Miss
Bessie Beale had many admirers. and
soon it was known that Mr.. Sturtevant,
of New York, was the favored suitor,
and in the spring the announcement was
made that brilliant wedding the next
autumn would seal the happiness of the
young lovers. But in July there was
grand denouen,ext. Mr.. Sturtevant dis
appeared from the Sound" boat on its
way to Newport, and the supposition
was and still is that he accidentally fell
overheard and was drowned. Immedi-
ately after the announcement, which of
course caused great CONSERVATION, soci-
ETY. was still further amazed by the pub
IlcallOn OF nOllce Vi lne HdTIidSe III
June in Baltimore of Mr.. Sturtevant and
Miss Beale. 1t seems that the young
people, with the consent of the brides
mother were privately married; but the
express stipulation was agreed upon that
no public announcement shnuld he made
until the time previously fixed for the
wedding in October. and that the bride
should remain with her parents until
that time and continue to receive visits
from the groom just as she had done
thereto. The marriage was duly proven,
the certificate being in regular form, land
the young widow, the period of whose
wifehood was comprised in the brief time
necessary to perform the marriage cerc-
momy, succeeded to her late husband S
property. This is one of the romances
of real life which is indeed stranger
than fiction.

A SAD BUT TRUE STORY.

Some time ago, SAYS the Cincinnati
Daily Times, while the family were at
dinner one day, at one of our wealthy
farmers houses, In Pendleton county
Kentucky. the wife of the household
walked out of the room. Her departure
was not noticed particularly, until the
lapse of time made it obvious that she
would not return. Observations soon
convinced the husband that his wife had
eloped with hired man who had been
at work on the place. Time in its pro-
gress allayed the modification. and as
suaged the PAIN of the deserted husband,
and he plodded on from day to day in
the silent and almost unvarying monot-
ony of his course.
The wife was heard of no more
New affections sprang up in the breast
of the man, whose heart-strings were so
suddenly and so rudely torn. The sister
of her who had been the departed wife
for the husband was now divorced by
law-slowly and almost unconsciously
gained favor in his eyes. and filled the
vacant place in his sympathies. He mar
| ried her.
The period of six months in the years
marriage Of the second sister glided away
when one day knock was heard at the
| door. and the absent wife was returned.
The hired man with whom she had
gone away, fell into drunkenness and
debauchery, soon treated the deluded
woman with neglect and cruelty, and at
length deserted her.
She struggled on then, amid many
privations and much suffering, and in
the maze of her miseries wandered back
to her fathers house, whose farm was
adjoining her husbands Her father
would not permit her to come into the
house, and commanded her to leave.
She then turned to her husbands
house, and there he found her in the
doorway when he came to answer the
summons.
Her worn and tattered garb, pale and
haggard countenance. lack-luster eye
and sorrowful air, made her an object
whose sadness can only be pictured in
the mind.
The husband lost to her, was struck
dumb with pang of recollections that
penetrated him like a thunder-bolt in a
moment more the gloom cloud opened q
little, and tear drop glistening fell
from his eyes.
His wife would not see her sister. Nc
member of the family would hold inter.
course with her. She could not live with
them.
But her husband built her cabin il
the extreme corner of the farm, provided
for her subsistence, and there she nov
lives, an utter stranger inher own house
hold.

A HUGE GUN.

NEwBURGH, December 2.-0n Mon
day afternoon, at three o'clock, the new
Sutcliff gun, weighing in its rough state
$4,000 pounds, was successfully cast at
the West Point Foundry, and being the
most gigantic piece of ordinance ever
cast here. has created considerable IN
terest.
At its last session, Congress made an
appropriation for the purpose of assist
Ing American inventors in their expert
ments on heavy artillery. Mr. Sutcliff,
whose name the gun bears, is one of the
few gentlemen whose plans are being
tested by the Government He is only
interested in the steel mechanism which
is to be attached to this preacher that
speaks to the purpose. " as Miss Standish
would call him.
The gun is made of the finest iron
standing pull of 10000 to $4,000
pounds, and brought here by Messrs.
Paulding. Kemble & Co. for this express
purpose. The casting is now l9 feet
long but when finished will be only 10.
1t will then have steel barrel, inches
thick at the breach and 3 at the muzzle,
with rifle bore. and weigh 10, 900 pounds.
The ball will be 8 inches in diameter,
and weigh $50 pounds.
The mould was made week ago, and
at the time of casting was as hard as
a sun-dried brick. 1t was so situated
that the iron from two large furnaces
could be run directly into it by means
of troughs. The cere is a cast-iron tube
wound with rope and covered with sand.
This was filled with water the moment
! the metal was run in the mould. Twelve
and half minutes We're occupied in
casting, and the water, which was being
| forced through the core at the rate OF
% gallons per minute. was raised from
30 to 81 degrees. The core will be kept
| full of water twelve hours, when the
iron will be sufficiently set to allow it:
removal. The water will then be ex
hausted, and as soon as the rope burn;
from the outside, tackling will be at
tached and the core withdrawn. The1
Rodman's celebrated process will b,
kept up for six days. The bore beins
always full of water. of course the con
traction from the inside goes on NOR
rapidly than from without, and the de
sired strength is thus obtained Tn,
portion next the water is first contract
ep by cooling; the part next cooled con
tracts, and binds the first, as it were
like a band on the inside. The mex
layer acts similarly, and so on till al
is cooled, each part successively bindin
that within till all is held with grea
tenacity. Eight days will be require,
to cool this monster, and at a cost Q
about $4,000.

BRIGHT SIDE PEOPLE.

The propensity to make the best of
things is generally found IN combina-
tion with those smaller virtues which
are more annoying to ones neighbors
than most vices. The man who rises at
five every morning, who always ties up
his letters with red tape, and who is
convinced of the great truth that it is
better to be half an hour too early than
half minute too late, is frequently Civ
en- to making the best of things. The
duty of doing so is moral maxim just
big enough for him to understand. He
probably reflects upon it in the early
morning at the time when the cold bath
is bringing out that glow, physical and
moral, which makes him an offence to
all weaker vessels during the rest of the
day.
! The ruddy, jovial person who gets
himself up after the country-gentlcman
type, or the more unctious variety of
/
popular preacher, is apt to be perspiring
this doctrine at every pore. 1t is a
pleasure to him to meet somebody in
distress upon whom he may discharge
boisterous comfort through his favoritc
aphorism, as fre-engine sends cold wa
ter through a hose. If he acquires some
dim consciousness Of the fact that his
kind exhortations sound like a bitter
mockery to his victims. it only increases
his sense of virtue. They cannot COM
fort themselves under the loss Of a wife
by the reflection that they still have
several first cousins and money enough
to pay for handsome monument. That
only proves that they have not studied
so well as he, the great art Of properly
directing their sentiments. For Of course
he will deny in the most pathetic man
ner that he would ever advise anything
like self-deceit. He does not ayowedly
