Dickens Domestic Troubles,

The late Charles Dickens, it was gener.
ally known, was separated from his wife.
In the third volume of Forster's Life of
Dickens" just issued in London, the great
novelist himself explains his mysterious
family troubles: Poor Catherine and I
are not made for each other, and there is
no help for it. 1t is not only that she
makes me uneasy and unhappy, but that
l make her SO, too-and much more so.
She ls exactly what you know in the way
Of being amiabie and complying; but we
are strangely ill-assorted for the bond
there is between us. God knows She
would have been thousand times hap.
pier IT she had married another kind of q
man, and that her avoidance of this destiny
would have been at least equally GOOD to
us both. l am often cut tO,the heart BY
thinking what q .pityiit is, for her own
sake, that ever fell In her way; and if l
were sick or disabled tomorrow l know
how sorry she would be. and how deeply
each other. But exactly the same incom-
patibility would arise the moment / was
well again; and nothing on earth could
make her understand me, or suit us to
each other. 1t mattered not SO much
when we had only ourselves to consider,
but reasons have been growing since
which make it all but hopeless that we
should even try to struggle on. What is

in.law are excellent at making their way
through the bush, and as each carries a
pocket compass they are in little danger
OF being lost. Just before we came here
the whole settlement had to turn out in
search OF settlers wife who had gone
TO look for her cow one fine afternoon
with two of her own children and two
OF her neighbor's, who coveted the pleas
ant walk and the chance of berry-pick-
ing. AS evening came on and they did
not return much alarm was felt, and
when the night had passed it was thought
best to call out all the men. Accordingly
twenty men were soon mustered, headed
by sklllful trapper, who has been many
years here and knows the bush we'll.
They made "trapper's line" which
means placing the men in a straight line
at considerable distances from each other.
and so beating the bush in all directions
IS they advance, shouting and firing off
their guns continually. Atlength, towards
the afternoon, the trapper himself came
upon the poor woman and the four chill
dren, not many miles from her home, sit
ting under a tree, utterly exhausted by
hunger, fatigue and incessant screaming
for help. Her account was that she had
found her COW at some distance from home,
had MIXED her, and then tried to return,
but entirely forgot the way she came and
after trying one opening after another be-
came utterly bewildered. The forest in
summer is so unvarying that nothing is
easier than to 60 astray. As night came
on, she divided the can of milk among
the poor, hungry, crying children, and at
length they all slept under q large tree,
the night providentially being fine and
warm: In the morning they had renewed
their fruitless efforts, getting farther and
farther astray, till at length they had sunk
down, unable to stir from the spot where
they were found. -March Atlantic.

An important case was tried in the Som
erset County Court, New Jersey, recently,
the result of which will be of particular
interest to railroad companies and to
passengers who may meet with accidents.
John Knable, the plaintiff. received in
juries on Dec. 81, 1871, while riding
in the rear car of train on the Connells-
Vile Railroad, bruised rail having
thrown the car down an embankmeut into
the river. 1t was shown to the court that
the repair-master of the division on which
the accident occurred had been notified
of the defective rail. In the instruction to
the jury the Court held that when an acct.
dent happens and passenger is injured,
the presumption is against the carrier.
and that the defendant must remove il bv
showing that there was no negligence. On
the question as to what the law reou;res
in regard to the structure of railroads. the
Court substantially charged as follows.
The road must be constructed of the
best materials in the best known manner.
1t must be safe and sufficient beyond
question, in view of the business to be
done upon 1t. The ties must be sound
and strong, we'll laid and well fastened.
The road in its structure must
be up to the standard. The ut
most care and vigilance is required of
the company In keeping it in repair. It
must be kept in the best condition. 1t
must not be suffered to be out of repair
for moment longer than the utmost dill
gence requires. It must be always as
good as new, as good as the best. The
railroad company is bound to keep hands
enough and Of such quality as to keep the
road in the best order. Not to have the
road up to the standard indicated is neg
!igence. The slightest neglect to keep it
in this condition, if hurt or loss occurs to
any one, will render the company liable.
II injury results from defect in the road
the carrier can relieve himself from re-
possibility only by showing that the de-
feet was one which could not be discov.
cred or cured by any attainable skill, fore
sight or intelligence.
On the question of damage the Court
affirmed the point of counsel to plaintiff
in this regard, which is to the effect that
the plaintiff can only recover such com.
pensation for loss and damage as the evil
dence clearly proves him TO have sus.
tanned, not exceeding $1,000. The jury
rendered a verdict for the plaintiff for
81, 400.

Nothing Like Straw.

DIR: Do LEWIS writes: "Of the eight
pounds which man eats and drinks in a
day, it is thought that not less than five
pounds leave his body through the skin.
And of these five pounds a considerable
percentage escapes during the night while
he is in bed. The larger part Of this is
water, but in addition there is much
ettete and poisonous matter. This being
in great part gaseous in form, penetrates
every part of the bed. Thus all parts of
the bed-mattrass, blankets, as we'll as
sheets-sOOn become foul and need purifi-
cation. The ma,trass needs this quite as
much as the sheets. To allow the sheets
to be used without washing or changing
three or six months, would be regarded
as bad housekeeping; but must insist if
q thin sheet can absorb poisonous excre-
tiOns Of The body to make it unfit for use
in few days, a thick mattrass, which
can absorb and contain thousand times
as much of these poisonous secretions,
needs to be purified as often Ger.
tainly as once in three months A sheet
can be washed. A mattrass cannot be
renovated in this way. Indeed, there is
no other way OF cleaning mattrass but
by steaming or picking it to pieces, and
thus in fragments exposing it to the direct
rays of the sun. As these processes are
scarcely practicable with any of the ordi-
nary mattresses, am decidedly of the
opinion that the good old-fashioned straw
bed, which can every three months be ex-
changed for fresh straw, and the tick
washed, is the sweetest and healthiest of
beds. II in the winter season the porous
ness of the straw beds makes it q little
uncomfortable, spread over it comforter
or two of wooden blankets, which should
be washed as often as every two weeks.
With this arrangement, if you wash the
bed-covering as often as once in one or two
weeks, you will have delightful, healthy
bed. Now, if you leave the bed to air,
with open windows during the day, and
not make it for the night before evening,
you will have added greatly to the sweet
ness of your rest in consequence, and to
the tone of your health. heartily wish
this good change could everywhere be
introduced. Only those who have thus
attended to this important matter can
Judge Of its influence on the general health
and spirits."i r,. 49,,
