IT is said of James Lick that several years ago he had an extensive strawbe patch, and when his employees were en- gagged picking them and discovered eating any, they were instantly discharged. A young man applied to Lick for a situation, and being posted in answer To inquiry, told Lick that he could not eat strawb ber- ries, that they soured on his stomach He was employed and spent the balance of the day with one hand picking for the market and the other for his stomach. At night Lick enquired how he got along, "Oh splendid" said the young man. Then take some wine with me. But no sooner was the wine down than the strong emetic with which Lick had drugged it, commenced to work, and the young man disgOrged strawberries all over forty acre lot, and was last seen going toward San Francisco, limpsy as rag, being helped along by the toe of Lick's boot.

Reduction of New York Hotel Rates,
 The plan of reducing rates and adjusting prices for board according to the floor or the location of the room occupied is now recognized everywhere as the best one. This plan the result of tact, rare enterprise, and keen insight into the mysteries of management, was originated by H. l., Powers, the proprietor of the Grand Central Hotel on Broadway, New York. From the start the, plan worked SO well that it has placed the Grand Central ID the lead of the first-class hotels in New York and kept it there. To illustrate this, the Grand Central, although the largest hotel in New York, (It is really tue largest in the world, con- taining 63o rooms and the most elegantly furnished, scales it's rates from VI co 10 $2 co per day less than the other first class hotels that approach in it style and rank. Many people will be surprised to learn that or meals per day are considered neccssa- ry at first-class hotels in New York. The Grand Central furnishes six separate meals each day, from early morn till midnight, and is fast becoming celebrated for its table.

SAD RESULT OF STRIKR-A very sad affair occurred at Wauskuck, R. l., early Saturday morning, whereby the family of James Gibson were thrown into deep affiic- ton. The family consists of MT. Gibson, his wife and five children. The father and three children were weavers in the mill, and up to the time of the late strike were earning 8 good income. The family were laying up a portion of their earnings for a rainy day. MT. Gibson, however, took thrown out of work, and their little savings were soon dissipated. Six weeks of idleness reduced them 10 the verge of starvation, and the mother became we'll nigh distracted at the sight of her gve little ones suffering for bread. The eldest child, lad about seventeen, left home and procured work in the mill at the reduced wages. But prosperi- ty did not return to this once happy home. The little flock was broken, and the mothers thoughts wandered after her absent son, and she longed to have him with her again. Her mind became unbalanced with her trials. and about midnight Friday night she left her bed, passed into an adjoining room, and attempted to end her existence by cutting her throat with razor. Sue was gone but a momeut when she returned 10 the bed, and her horror stricken husbt nd saw what she had done, as the blood streamed from ghastly wound three inches long in her throat He immediately summoned assistance, and a doctor was sent for who dressed the wound, and Satur- day she was lying in critical condition, regretting the deed, and continually calling for her absent son The physician thinks, as far as the wounds are concerned, she is in fair way to recover, as no important blood vessels were severed. The Windpipe, however, was entirely divided. Providence Journal.

BNone but physician knows how much a reliable GlterGtSUe is needed by the people. On all sides of us, in all commit mites everywhere, there are multitudes who suffer from complaints that nothing but an alteratiue cures.-Hence; great many of them have been made and put abroad with the assu1 ance of being effectual. But they fail to accomplish ths cures they promise, because they have not the intrinsic virtues they claim. In this state of the case, Dr. J. c. Aver & Co.,, of Lowell, have supplied a COMPOUND EXTRACT OF SARsAPARuLA, which proves to be the long desired remedy. Its peculiar difference from other kindred preparations in the market is that it cures the diseases for which it is recommended, while they may not. We are assured of this fact by more than one intelligent phy- sician in this neighborhood, and have the further evidences of our own experience of its truth.-Nash0Slle Tenn. Farmer.

awoke the silent Sabbath echoes of Pine Hill.
 Only imagine the retreat of Deacon Fow- Ter from the pious denunclations of Ros- we'll Holcomb! Think of the flight of Lot from the walls of Sodom, and his 1.-two forty gait" from the birthstone, fire and tempest With what sorrowful heart he entered that house, which had beheld the daily devotions of his whole spotless life, and whose walls now looked darkly and gloomily upon hls first great sin How quickly was his person washed, his Sunday attire donned, and with what rapid, and yet penitential steps he sought the abode of ! his beloved pastor! There he revealed the | heinousness of his sih-hs forgettulness of God and of His holy day. It was in vain, 1 the Reverend Mir. Knapp attempted to qualify, or cxtenuate, or excuse, his transgression. In vain he urged, that it was mere mistake-a mere forgetfulnsss. "That," said the Deacon lis the very thing The commandment says, remember! 1 have not remembered the Sabbath. day to keep it holy! And, what is worse, have done this sin in the presence of thls great sinner, who has repreyed me with my transgression, and whose laugh of exulta ton was heard above the roar of the water at Deweys mill dam !" Nothing would satisfy him but a full confession. in the face of the whole congregation; and, aftel tue preliminary exercises of the morning service, the Deacon rose, in seat in tho broad aisle, bent his head revcrentially for ward, crossed his hands meekly on hi breast, while the Pastor announced that an aged and venerableI brother and an officer of the church, forgo that this day was the Lords day and having by mistake commenced hi secular labors, he now prayed, tha here after he might ever remember the da. which the Lord had made, that he migh be forgiven for his involuntary trsusgress ion.
 \ It may readily be imagined, that thi incident was a " thing of joy" to Holcomb IL gave him a new story; and the inquiry "How was it, Holcomb, about your white washing for Deacon Fowler? ?" especiall, when accompanied with glass of sling,
 as "drinks" were then called, would cal for recital, which did not loose anythinI in its repetition. B.
