AN INDIAN STORY.

We learn from gentleman OF
this city, who is just back from
trip up the river, the particulars
of a rather extraordinary case of
experience in the last awful biz
zard. An Indian and his squaw
were caught out in the storm
while journeying from Fort Ran
dali to Fort Thompson Agency,
and becoming bewildered took re-
fuge in a small ravine. They
wrapped their blankets about them
and sat down under the bank.
the snow soon covered them, but
the Indian kept hole through
the rapidly forming drift with
his gun, which he would poke up
occasionally. They remained there
all night. and the drift became so
high in the meantime that he was
obliged to splice the ramrod to
the end of his rifle in order to
reach to the top and keep up
ventilation. During their cheer
less Imprisonment the squaw was
delivered of a child, and it was
christened "Snow Drift" > .SioaGc

There is the woman who drives you
mad by never being discomposed in ei-
ther manner or dress. Her hair is as
smooth as though it had been ironed !;
her face is as clean as though cinders
and dust were an unknown quantity !;
her boots and gloves are new; they fit
so perfectly that you are quite sure she
was poured into them. She is not with
out wisdom in being bien chdusee and bien
gdntee. When people have nothing to do
or to think about, they are reduced to
extremities! But when this immacu-
lately-attired woman emerges from her
section, after sleepless nights journey,
As calmly unrumpled as on her first ap-
pearance, endurance ceases to be a vir-
tue. She is reproach to earth and man.
People have no business to go through
life without coming In contact with it.
The immaculately-attired woman has no
wrinkles. She never will have. She
sheds feelings precisely as she sheds
dust.
They slide off her. don't approve
of her at all, but do wish my boots and
gloves looked like hers. Then there is
the frowsy woman. The longer she
travels the more scratched up'' her
general appearance. Her children, be-
tween the ages of three aud seven, browse
upon everything in general, making
night hideOus by crying, and day hid
eous by permeating the atmosphere with
their uneasy selves. Her husband wears
paper collars, puts his boots on in public,
and reads violently illustrated papers,

A Wonderful Clock.

A marvellous piece of mechanism in
the way of clocks is described in the
French journals. Itis an eight-day in
strument, with dead-beat escapement
maintaining power. 1t chimes the
quarters, plays sixteen tunes, plays
three tunes every twelve hours, or will
play at any time required. The hands
go round as follows: One once a min
ute, one once an hour, one once a week,
one once a month, one once year. 1t
shows the moons age, the rising and
setting of the sun, the time of high and
low water, half ebb and half flood. By
beautiful cOntrivance there is part
which represents the water, which rises
and falls, lifting some ships at high
water tide as they were in motion, re-
ceding leaves these little autOmation
ships dry on the sands. The clock
shows the hour of the day, day of the
week, day of the month, month of the
year. and in the day of the month
there is provision made for the long
and short months. Ii shows the zodiac;
it strikes or not chimes or not, as may
be desired, and it has the equation ia
BILE. showing the difference of clock and
sun every day in the year.

Married Children at school.

Under this caption the Pail Nail
Gazette speaks ironically as follows con-
cerning the piece of legislation recon-
mended by Lord Stanley of Alderley:
'The amendment which Lord Stanley
of Alderley is desirous of introducing
into the Education act of 1870 deserves
very grave consideration. He wishes
to substitute the words boys and un-
married women for the word children
i'm the clause giving compulsory powers
to school boards, for the following rea-
son: By the common law of England,
as laid down by Lord Coleridge, il is
lawful for a woman twelve years of age
to marry, and under these circumstan-
ces such case as this might arise: A
Manchester workingman might select
for himself a bride of twelve years of
age, marry her and take her to his home,
when i'm consequence of her absence
from school for a week or a fortnight
the police or the school-board officials
on her first appearance in the public
streets might carry her off from her
husband to hurry her away to board
school. With or without breach of
the peace the case would then be brought
before magistrate for his decision,
when the husband would plead his right
to his wife's company at all times under
the common law, while the school,
board official would show that the Edu-
cational act gave him the right and i'm
posed on him the duty of enforcing her
at school for another year.
How would the magistrate decide in such
a case, and what view would the Home
Secretary adopt? World the govern

Clay Eaters.

Leusinger, in his '"Travels on the
Amazon and Madeira" speaks of the
appetite for clay shown by the inhabi-
tants of the virgin forests traversed by
these rivers. This propensity is common
to all ages from childhood to old age,
and is so strong that the prospect of a
miserable and dreadful death cannot
withhold them from satisfying this NOR
bid taste. IL is not uncommon to see
amongst the negroes employed on the
coffee and sugar plantations an unfortu-
nate being working in the heat of the
day with an iron mask over his face
this is clay eater, whom tits sought To
save from his deplorable propensity by
this means, and who is never allowed
To take off his mark unless under proper
superintendence. This tasts, however,
is not peculiar to man i'm those regions.
Many animals, and even birds also show
it, of which advantage is taken for hunt
ing purposes The hunter has only to
place himself i'm ambuscade near a clay
pit, on a moonlight night and he will
soon have plenty Of sport among the
wild boars and roe-deers, as well as the
jaguars, which are attracted, not by the
clay, but by the desire for a living prey.

call. As we were then situated we
were only in each others way. A few
moments after we had separated, the

attention. This was followed by groan
so hollow and deathlike that it made me
shudder. Then frightened woman's
voice. / stood in the front parlor door
awaiting developments. The next thing
heard were light footballs on the hall
above, and then realized that a woman
was descending the stairs holding in
her hand lighted candle. She came
down very slowly, for the light was
dim, and she was evidently fearful of
putting it out entirely. | saw her bare
feet and long white robe, and then
stepped back little. As l did so the
light fell full on her face, and Miss,
there-there stood my Lizzie. She was
pale and hollow-eyed, and all the joy
had gone out of her face, and | knew
that she had suffered too. For a mo-
ment / thought l was going to die, but
l held on as well as l could, and
watched. She went to the back parlor
and opened a closet, took out decanter
and then took a wine-glass from the
| table; then she dropped all, and stood
and wrung her hands.
"'Oh, Father i'm heaven!' she prayed,
tell me why l was ever tempted to
leave him? You know l have never
had a moments rest since; and now he
is dying-dying, and am alone. What

the darkness with her. My companions

riage for us, and an hour after my dead
wife lay on the bed in the room she had
left eighteen months before. The next
day read an account of burglary and
the probable murder of the master of
the house. He was found dead in his
bed by his servants, in the morning.
Nothing was said about the missing

The poor fellow was moved to farm

and. a week after, passed peaceably into
the world of spirits. His last words
were to me:

The following colloquy recently took
place between Recorder Hackett and a
criminal before him for examination in
New York. From it we conclude that,
while human depravity is not less pre-
valent than formerly, modern inven-
tions protect mankind from the depre-
dations of the vicious, by rendering
their operations considerably more ha-
zardous:
"what is your businessr" asked the
Recorder.
81 am obliged to work"
"Don't you like it?''
''No."
"Why no.f What was your busi-
ness?"
"A cracksman." Frank answer.)
swell, then, you have given up that
business?''
"Yes. You see, Counsellor, what
with the burglar alarms in houses and
stores, and the district telegraphs, and
people growing economical and careful,
and the newspapers bounding us, bur-
glary, garotting and highway robberies,
and such things, is actually hazardous,
and amt so easy to be did,"
