DANGER OF STIMULANTs.- man IS
no less than q deliberate suicide who
drinks tea, coffee, or ardent spirits ut any
kind, to induce him to perform work in
hand when he feels too weak to go through
with it without such aid. This is the
reason that the majority of great orators
and public favorites die drunkards. The
pulpit, the bench, the bar, the forum,
have contributed their legions of victims
to drunken habits The beautiful woman,
the sweet singer, the conversationalist,
the periodical writer, has filled but too
often the drunkard's grave. The best
possible thing for man to do when he
feels too tired to perform task, or too
weak to carry it through, is to go to bed
aud sleep week If he can; this is the
only true recuperation of brain power;
the only actual renewal of brain forces,
because during sleep the brain is, in
sense, at rest, in condition to receive and
appropriate particles of nutriment from
the blood which take the place of those
which have been consumed in previous Ia
Dor. Mere stimulants supply nothing ;
they only goad the brain, force it to q
greater consumption of it's substance, un>
til that substance has been SO fully ex>
hausted that there is not power enough
left to receive q supply; just as men are
sometimes so near death by thirst and
starvation that there is not strength en-
ough left to swallow anything, and all ID
over. The capacity of brain for receiving
recuperative particles sometimes comes on
with the rapidity of lightning, and the
man becomes mad in IN instant; in ar in-
slant falls into convulsions. IN an instant
loses all sense, and he is an idiot I'VE re-
peat, there is rene wed force for the brain
only in early and abundant sleep.

A MOST valuable discovery has lately
been made in Herculaneum-thato of fe.
male bust, life size, of pure silver, in I'd.
mirable preservation. What is curious is,
that at first 1t was thought to be only of
bronze, of which metal 50 many are found
at Herculaueum and Pompeli. The sc0ria
charged with sulphur, with which 1t was
surrounded, have specifically altered the
precious metal of this work of art, and
the sulphuret of silver which has formed
on its surface gives to it the appearance
of black figure of ordinary metal. II
was only when it was taken to the light
that one of the keeps, struck by its color,
which differed so ogreatly from the bfonzes
thought Of scratching the surface, when
the silver re-appeared IN all its brilliancy.
This superb work of art 10 the only one
of Its kind that has yet been discovered in
the burr 4 cities. Il weighs rather more
than fort two pounds.

Col. FoRNEY, writing from London, in
regard to the late defeat OF the KepuDll-
cans and Its causes, closes his letter thus:
Every intelligent observer must decide
that no organization will dare to attempt

hard money or specie payments The one
strong fact bears equally upon every mind,
that we have now very little more curren~

had at the close of the war for little more
than half the country. What, then, IS the
duty of the Republican party in tie pres,

our financial system, having fought the
war through with the present clrcuIallng
medium, having protected industry ana
contributed unspeakably to the prosperity
of the nation, 1t Is the bounden duty q

established, and to do this at the coming

A STRANGE STORY

Thirteen years ago young man woocd
and won young lady in village not far
from Davenport. The parents Of the girl
uo!ec.ed, ana there was deal of trouble
out hna!ly the couple were marriel at the
nome OF the bride. Three months after.
the bridegroom desire. to move to Cali
Iornla, but the family of his wife opposed
ner emigration. and the result was that til e
husband started for the Pacific coast with
out her. After the first SIX months no
tidings from the husband were received !:
ana In less than year news came that he
was dead. In 1865 tue widow married a
young man who had recently arrived from
Germany; and her second husband was
entirely ignorant of the fact that his bride
was widow. But where Ignorance is
bliss, it's folly to be wise." Shortly after
the marriage the husband purchased a
farm in Scott county. and on that farm
the couple have lived ever since, and sew.
eral children have blessed their union.
Four weeks ago the first husband of this
woman arrived in Davenport, and on
making inquiries learned the history of
his Wlfe's marriage. Then he rode out to
see her. 1t was fortunate for her liege
lord was away from home. for she was
very much affected. She told him that she
supposed he was dead, and so married an
other, and chided him for neglecting her
as he did. He had q long slory to tell,
the real glst Of it being that he had de-
termlDed never 10 return until he became
rich. And here he was-RICH! But his
wife was miserable in his prcsence-and
he was miserable, too.
The end OF the conference was. that the
first husband returned to Davenport to
consult a lawyer-and the end Of the con
sultatiOn was, that the husband went to
the wife and had another long talk with
her, and then the two separated, never to
meet again, for the man determined to
cross the ocean and spend the balance Of
his days in Germany The day that he
left.the wife entered her suit for divorce
on theground of deserlion; the notice was
forthwith served on the defendant. and
he accepted service. AT the next term of
the Circuit Court the defendants name
will be called, and there will be no re
sponse. There will be default, and decree
of divorce granted. And maybe the wife
will be married asccond time to the father
Of her children, and 50 remain cOntcnted
in the delightful home iu which she now
lives in elegance aud comfort. Dayen-

which shows that q chance dog has moro
soul than some men. The DOG, An intel
telligent pointer, was travelling on rail-
road train with his master When the
train arrived at Santa Rosa, Edward Scau-
Ian was not aboard, but his dog was and
appeared to be in great distress. After
the train had gone on he lay down on the
track and whined, and ran up the track
a if he wero chasing phantom, and re-
turned and whined and paved the feet of
several people piteously. At last man
resolved to put himself underthe guidance
and direction Of the dog, and followed
him three miles mp the road. Here tho
body of Edward Scaulan was found, cs1&
almost in two. 1t was put in box and
the dog mounted the box, and 80 rode
home. The account further states that
since the funeral the dog seems heart,
broken and utterly refuses food.

RATIFICATION OF AN OLD STORY

RAMIFICATlON OF AN OLD STORY
BIT SAM. HANDw1cH.
Mary had little ram
She found it in the gutter.
And every time that Mary stopped
The ram was sure to but her.
She went one day to dig mesa
Of Early Rose potatoes;
She wore her black alpaca dress
And her new high heeled gaiterf.
The preacher had come home with her,
And waited for his dinner:
She seized the grubbing>hoe snd dug
With all the might was in her.
That tarna, ram he saw her s.oop;
Her Grecian bend was to'rd him
Had Samson then dug 'taters there
The shock had surely foored him.
"Why doth he so?" the preacher asked.
And marveled they abode him.

"A thing that Mary showed him.
