his wife dearly, was constantly buying for
her costly and beautiful articles. He filled
her lap with such little things a. he saw
from time which he thought would please
her. She lived in boarding house. One
day her husband noticed that she was with
out certain articles he had bought her only
short time before. He began to inquire
and learned that her landlady had kor-
rowed her furb to wear to IL arket; that her
sister had borrowed of her jewelry and
other articles to wear to party; that
lady friend had borrowed her new bonnet
to wear on the street. and that scarcely one
of the beautiful articles he had bought for
his wife, because he loved her and wished
her to have them, was in her possession.
Whoever should see her in company, even
with her own articles on her person, would
think they were borrowed of those to whom
she had loaned them rather than lose their
friendship.
As the articles were returned to their
owner, some of them torn, broken, sOlled
and damaged, like a sensible man he threw
them into the fire and told his wife that if
she did not love him enough to keep for her
own use such ornaments as he bought for
her alone che might buy for herself here
after. There is no difference between a
borrower and q beggar, except the Dor
rover is the most selfish Of the two and the
least entitled to respect.

lady acquaintance tried the game on her
husband. He wasn't melted a bit; he
merely said: when you can get the boys
to come here and smoke cigars and talk
politics, and y GU set up key of lager, you
can count me in. l like the company o.

An Interesting Relic.

A highly valued friend has placed us in
possession of probably the oldest specimen
of printing that Mississippi has produced
In 1899, the late Colonel Andrew Mars
chalk, then an officer in the United States
army. brought with him, to the Mississippi
Territory a small printing press, on which
he printed at Natchez the few laws enacted
by the Territorial Council. 1t was done up
in pamphlet form, and the specimen fur
nished by our friend is one of the very few
of those pamphlets yet remaining in exist.
ence. The volume consists OF 200 pages of
old fashioned plea, heavily double loaded
or, as printers say, slugged. The impress
paper would now be considered very coarse.
The number of lave passed would be con-
sldered very light sessions work by legis
lative bodies of the present day, being only
twenty-five in number; by far the longest
of which Is "a law establishing fees of the
several officers and persons therein named"
One Of these laws, which is not quite
up to the progress Of the present age,
was "tO prevent the admission of foreigners
of infamous character. and the residence
within the Territory of persons owing no
allegiance to the United States" authorized
the Governor to require sufficient testimo-
malls of the good reputation of aliens and
place them under bonds for their good be-
havior. The legislative council was COM
posed OF Winthrop Sargent, Peter Bryen,
Bruin and Daniel Tillton. In 1902, the
Legislature of the Territory consisted of
House of Representatives and legislative
council, with H. Hunter Speaker of the
House of Representatives and John Ellis
president of the council, and William
Charles Cole Claiborne, Governor. The
most important act of this body was the
charter Of college to 'bear the name of
Jefferson College, in honor of Thomas JET.
fersOn, President of the United States and
President of the American Philosophical
Society," 1t is under this charter the
Board of Trustees of jefferson College
have always climed exemption of their
property from taxation. We quote the
section as it was passed:
Sec. g. Aud be it further enacted, That
the lands, public buildings and other prop
erty belonging to jefferson College are
hereby declared to be free from every kind
of public tax.
Darius Moffet and James Ferrall were
appointed public printers.
1t is deeply to be regretted that Missis-
sippi has no safe place for the permanent
deposit of such historical documents as
those furnished us by our friend, who has,
himself, many other papers that would
prove of great value to the future historian
of the State.--Natchez Post.

Fate of the Pearl.

The following strange story has been
communicated to us by James Floyd, late
master Of the schooner Pearl:
We had left Colombo in the steamer
Strathowen, had rounded Gale, and were
we'll in the bay, with eur course laid for
Madras, steamiDg over a calm and tranquil
sea. About an hour before sunset OF MAY
10 we saw on our starboard beam and about
two miles off small schooner lying be.

we came up with her lazily examined her

ing lying on the sea, which from its color
and shape l took to be bank of seaweed.
AS l watched the mass hitherto at rest on
the quiet sea was set in motion. 1t struck
the schooner, which visibly reeled and
then righted; Immediately afterward the
masts swayed sideways, and with my glass
l could clearly discern the enormous masts
and the hull OF the schooner cOalescing-I
can think of no other term. Judging from
their exclamatiOns, the other gazers must
have witnessed the same appearance. Al.
most Immediately after the collision and
coalescence the schOOner's' masts swayed
toward us, lower and lower, the vessel was
on her beam end, lay there a few seconds,
and disappeared, the masts r1ghting as she
IL
ensign struggling toward its peak. A cry of
horror arose from the lOOkers-On; and, as if
by instinct, our ships head was at once
turned toward the scene, which was now
marked by the forms of those battling tor
lite-the sole survivors of the pretty little
schooner which only twenty minutes before
foated bravely on the smooth sea.
As soon as the poor fellows were able to
tell their story they astounded US with the
assertion that their vessel had been sub
merged by gigantic cutie fish or Gala
mary, the animal which, in a smaller form,
attracts SO much attention in the Brighton
Aquarium as the octopus. Each narrator
had his version of the story, but in the
main all the narratives tailed so remark
ably as to leave no doubt OF the fact.
AS soon as he was at leisure | prevailed
on the skipper to give me his written ac-
count OF the disaster, and l have now much
pleasure In sending you copy of his mar
rative:
