The Orkney Herald gives an amusing
account of an incident which occurred
in the parish church of Birssy some
years ago. During the singing of the
FIRST psalm a goose entered the church

IMMIGRATION SUGGESTIONS. An ''iutelli-
geu. Englishnau" has written from Stauuton,
Va, to Col. B. D. Harmon, oi the Valley rail-
road, at his request, giving his ideas 10 regard
to immigration He says that Virginia offers
attractions far superior to those of lndia, Aus
,raa, and other countries to which there is a
vast influx from England. The reason why
these are not known aud appreciated is that
they have not been laid before Euglish people
sufficiently by persons of influence and intelll-
geuce, so as to induce pcrsous OF corresponding
position and attaluments to come over. He says
a large pauper imnigrationis is not desired now,
but may be called for when the wonderful
mineral resources" come to be practically de-
veloped. He has called the attention of
London capitalist to some coal fields 10 Vir-
gna, and expects be will soon operate them.
He expects large iuAux of the "class Of men
we want" at an early day.

A CHASTITY SUSPICION. terrible sui
eide OF officer Robert Rae in Charles F. Null
lers store, on Haws street, last Saturday morn
ing, having caused MIR. Muller vast amount
of trouble and annoyance during the progress
of the post mortem examination aud the coro-
ner Is Inquest which followed the suicide, the
police authorities felt it their duty to remunc-
rate Muller, and accordingly quite liberal
sum of money was paid to him TO remunerate
him for his trouble Notwithstanding this,
however, Muller appeared at the Southern
Police district Station yesterday morning IN
anything but happy state of mind. 1t seems
that his ignorant and supcrstiious customers
have since the suicide imagined that Muller
would have no scruples Of conscience in cutting
their beefstakes with the same kuife that cut
Officer Rae's throat, aud in consequence of
this CHASTITY suspicion they have refused to buy
Mullcr's beef, and he has not sold pound OF
beef this week Hearing of the suspicion which
troubled his customers, Muller at once visited
the police authorities, and they, in considera-
tion of Mucr's personal interest 10 the matter
purchased the knife from him for 81 %

MENDELSSOHN AND HIS SISTER. THE un-
ion Of Felix and Fanny Meudelssohu Was somc-
thing wonderful, like the wonderful genius OF
seuslbity and music which endowed them both.
Such pure, tender, and noble souls are made
for each other The more fervid and exactiug
bonds of marriage and parentage did not utter
fere with the profound sympathy III which they
lived both when together and when apart.
They corresponded in music. Their emotions
too deep aud strange TO be conveyed 10 words,
like articuatc thoughts, they expressed iu
tones. Seating themselves at their inStru-
mcnts, they would for hours carry on an inter-
course perfectly intelIigible to each other, and
more ADEQUATE aud delicious than aUy vocal
conversation.
When Felix, at Naples, at Romc, or in Lon
don, sent to Fanny letter composed ID notes,
she translated it first with her eyes, then with
her piano The most charming transcripts OF
these affcctonate aud musical souls were thus
made in music Swec,er or more dlvlncly gift
ed beings have rarely appeared on this earth.
Their relations OF spirit were sensitive and or
gauic, far beneath the reach OF intellectual con-
civusness. They seemed able to communicate
tdiugs through the ethereal medium 10y some
subtle telegraphy Of feeling, which trausceuds
understanding, aud belongs to a miraculous re-
yion OF lie, For when Fanny died in her Ger
England, suddenly aware OF some terrible cali
auity; from the disturbance Of equilibrium aud
dread sinking OF his soul, rushed to the piauo
aud poured out bis anguish 10 an improvisation
OF wailiug and mysterious stratus, which held
the assembly spcllbouud aud 10 tears lu a few
days letter reached him announcing that his
sister had died at that very hour. On receiv-
iug the tidings, he uttered shriek, and the
shock was SO great as to burst blood vessel in
his brain Life had no charm potent enough
to staulch and heal the cruel aceraton left in
his already failing frame by this sunderug
blow. The web of torn 6brils bled invlsibly.
He soon faded away, aud followed his sister to
a world OF 6ucr melody fitted for natures like
