ALBEMARLE MANUAL LADoR SCHooL.-T The
Albemarle Manual Labor School Will have
an endowment of 100000 and an income
Of over $4,000, estimating the securities IN
which its funds are invested at their market
vaIue. The Davidson heirs were paid S3oo,.
600 to surrender their claim, ana the nh1i
naners are now about to be exchanged:
Then the endowment fund will be turned
over to the custody of the Second Auoitor,
and he under the management of the State
Board of Education; but the lmmeola,e
control of the school will be in the nanas
of board of directors to appointed ey Tue
County Court of Albemarle. Cnder tile
provisions of the will the school VIII pe
located on farm near the line between
Nelson and Albemarle counties.
It authorizes quite liberal course oi
study, and allows all children of both sexes,
residents of Albemarle, and whose parents
are unable to educate them, to become stu
dents. and they are to be led and clothed, as
well as taught, and made to work on the
farm.
With a regular income, probably nearly
twice as great rs that of the University OF
Virginia, and with most liberal provisions
for the education of INDECENT Youths, THIS
institution, if properly managed, VIII nc
doubt finally become the great poor'nldh'
college of this State.

IF there is one lesson which lilo
teaches more plainly than any other,
it is the subordination If in,;i, idual
to general interest. Humanity is large;
a single life, even the largest, is small.
Engr0ssed with our daily duties,
pressed by cares, aad weighed down
by exacting obligations, we often fancy
that our life and labor is IA very neces-
sary and important thing. Yet little
reflection will show MS that the world
easily adjusts itself to its losses and
lite whirls on the rapid eddies and
rushcs in strong currents, aud the ex-
press wagon jostling against the
hcarse, the black plumes threading the
gay and busy crowd, who scarcely
note their passage, or think that soon
the same Offices must he performed for
them.
The sea smiles no less brightly in
the sunlight because dark and ghast.
" wreck lies hidden beneath its shin.
ing surface, and so the smile Of lite il
scarcely sadltlene<l, or its hues robbed
of their brightness, because Of the
awful shadow of death. which is its
constant attendant. Humanity il
large; individual life is small.-Lsse

TIE RESULT Or 4 STREET
FLTRTITION.

Some time ago says the Smithport
Miner. respectable young girl of
Reading, was induced By commercial
drummer to elopc with him, and after
a long search by her friends she was
found in disreputable house in Har-
risburg. This was all the result OF
street Irritation, which many addle
headed young girls think is SO NICE
The drummer is one Of a class OF vii
lains who infest cities and country
towns, and who by means Of their
good clothes, cheeky manners and
superficial slnartness, turn the heads
of well-meaning but silly girls. We
do not mean to include all commercial
travellers in this class, for there are
among them many respectable men,
neither is this class Of scamps to be
found only among commercial drum
mcrs. It may be safely concluded
that any stranger WHO seeks acquaint-
ance with a young lady in 4 clandes-
tine way is either fool or Il villain.
And any young lady who looks upon
the advance of a stranger in any other
light than downright insult is SO
sadly devoid Of intellect as to need the
closest watching.

TIE RECEDIyG COMET.-Professor
Parkhurst furnishes the New York
Tribune positions OF the Coggia comet
mp to July 90, 1871, the article conclu-
ding thus:
"Wili it ever come back I. There is
10 evidence in the Affirmative. Its
elements do not prove identical with
any comet previously observed. For
a willie it was supposed to be comet
that appeared i'll 1897, but this is now
exceedingly doubtful. Its orbit is
probably hyperbolic, and the state
nlent of its probable position a thous-
and years hence would suffice for read
ers who wish to dip into tuturity. As
10 its visiting the fixed stars and re-
turning to the earth again, the calcu-
lations Of Mr.. Proctor rather withdraw
such possibility from the sphere Of
mundane interest. He found at the
rate that comets of a parabolic orbit
usually travel, the outward voyage to
the nearest star would occupy some
thing like eight million years.

The narrow gauge system for minor
railroads is growing in popularity.
Virginia and North Carolina are bust
" engaged building narrow gauge
roads now through their almost inac-
cessible mountains, and many more Of
them are needed, and, if we'll managed,
would pay. Even Massachusetts,
road in prospect has voted to lay the
narrow instead of the broad gauge
Experience has but served to confirm
the advantages claimed for the cheap
road for all except trunk lines.

LAST year, during the first six
months, the total number Of arrivals
of immigrants, at New York city, was
14S,4S2. This year, for the first six
months, the number of arrivals has
declined to 1888. Here is a decrease
of 70,l5O or nearly one-half. This de-
crease is so marked that it leads to the
expression of q belief il New York,
that whilst heretofore the annual mum
Der of arriving immigrants at that
port has reached jO,OOO, this year it
will not greatly exceed 100000. The
chief comparative falling of is said
to be in the number Of German arriv-
ais, fact which is to some extent ac-
counted for by the circumstance that
the German steamers did not this year
reduce their steerage passage fares, a.
the En- glish vessels did.

sight to the people who live in the
same city with them, outside of their
individual circle of influence and ac-
qnaintance. Mr.. Beccher is seldom
to be seen OH the streets. During
several years residence in Brooklyn I
can recall meeting him but twice. He
still retains his vigorous, sturdy ep-
pearancc, though he has aged consid-
erably of late years. He walks firmly,
and with 1eonine tread, looking neither
to the right nor left, and he has every
appearance of MAJ of power and
selfpossesion.
Iilton is frequently to be seen cn
the ferry boats. or wenaing his way
between lis .iGmc and his Ctiice in the
Times haiiuing, New York. Tie is 3
striking looking man, whom most per
sons will turn to look at q second tiE,c
rs he passes by. lie has magniii-
cent physique, and beth his stalwart
figure and naughty bearing remind
one great deal of Charles Sumner
His hair is nov quite gray. and his
features carevofn; though the cS-
preston is rather one Of defiance than
martyr-like patience. lie usually
wears blue froc.i coat, and, at this
season, duck panta'oons, and straw
hat. His manner is often absorbed,
and he will pass by people without
noticing them. Tie usually keeps
aloof from the crowd, especially si late
years, and, when crossing the terry,
goes into the mems cabin.
Mrs Iilton is Of small. delicate,
and almost fragile physiqne: and, in
comparison to her tall husband, she
seems like child. Her face is full Of
womanly sympathy and sweetness,
while the eyes are inexprcssibly sad,
with lines which imply great physical
and mental suffering. No one can see
or converse with her without feeling a
deep interest and pity for her suffer

Collins drama of The Fro-e.. jieep hus
been plases, il Boston. lcu are
perhaps aware that Collins has rp-
ceutly been engaged III tnrs,in. his
play into novel. The Frozen Peep
awa'srns many sad reflections in my
MIND, as that piece was indirectly tho
means of bringing abont much Of
Dickens domestic unhappiness. Tm
whole story Of his separ. ton troiu his
wife has never been properly told, and
III all probability never will lc, as
his widow is resolved to maintain
the silence she has SO long kept. But
it is generally kEcwn that the family
is dissatisfied With Fosters book.
Your readers may have heard of tho
great amateur performance gwen i'll
the Free Trade Hall. M:ici.e,.cl,
in aid of the Dou~l;;s JerrnlI Fund.
Dickens, Collins, Shirley Brooks,
Mark Lemon and many other celebra-
ted writer's took parts. The lad!e;'
ci aracters were interpreted by PRO-
fessional actresses. Among thee WAS
Miss. Ellen Yelnan. She was theu
fresh, pleasant looking girl, not espo.
tally pretty, but possessing 4 GOO,
figure and an extremely agreeable
manner. IF ever the German poets
doctrine ofelective attinities was proved
to be true it was when Dickens ar !
Miss Ternan net. 1t was evident L,
nearly all of us that the two weve
mutually infatuated. Dickens was
constantly at her side, though his
manner was carefully guarded. Mrs.
Dickens was with the party, hut she
did not appear to notice the intimacy.
Very soon after the performances
Miss Ternan, at Dickens request, left
the stage. Ills affection for her is
said to be purely p!atonic, and have
never met amy one who was disposed
to dispute this belief.
But, nevertheless, it was ;h;s intimacy
which was the final cause Of rupture
between Dickens amt his wis. For
many Years prior to 1859 their mutu"i
relations had been any thing but
happy. although do not think that
Mrs. Dickens had previously had any
well grounded cause for jealousy. A
short time after the party rcturne.!
from Manchester, Mrs. Dickens Went
into q fashionable jewelers. at the
West End, where she was in the
habit of dealing, and was asked by
one of the firm, who knew her well,
how she liked her new bracelet. She
said she did not understand him, as
she had not received any such article.
The gentleman then explained that it
was onc Mr.. Dickens had ordered for
his wife, with q likeness and some
hair in it. This of course opened Mrs.
Dickens eyes, and Il separation speed
lily followed. Since that time Mrs.
Dickens has lived very quietly i'll IL
pretty little house n AZ the Regents
Park. where her children, wliOse re-
spect and affection she has always
enjoyed. ha,-, been frequent visitors.
