large Families.

The editor Of the Brunswick Me. }
TeLeqrdph has been investigating the
matter of the size OF some Of the
French Canadian families employed
in the mills at that place. and gives
a few of the facts he has ascertained.
He says There Is q family at work
in the cotton mill which consists OF
father and mother and twentv-four
children, all the children being large
enough 70 work. The woman Is the
fourth wife. A brother Of the hus-
band living with his fifth wife in
Montreal, has twenty-five chill
dren. Three families arrived
here last week, 10 GO to work in
the mill, and they number, ali
told, thirty-seven persons. a lady
friend Of ours q few days since, met q
French woman. who, looking at the
babe in the carriage, said To our
friend, Il have got fifteen Of those
The only possible reply Of the lady
with the one babe was, Gracious =
Ten and twelve and fifteen children
are by no means uncommon in French
Canadian families, but twenty-fOur Is
q little above the average"

Don't Make Excuses.

Every hOusekeeper knows that
by chance her well-ordered establish
ment is in unwOnted cOnfusOn, Mrs
Precision is sure to call. "FOr five
days I have expected that woman,
snd kept the house in apple-pie or
der" says the tired dame, "ands now
she has come on cleaning day ~
Very trying, of course but don't
apologies, my good lady. Everybody
knows that windows psnes will grow
dingy, that dust will accumulate,
that the faces OF little children, like
their clothes, have 4 natural affinity
for dirt, that all clothes will wear out,
that paint is sure to be finger marked.
that China will get ehipped, and that
il Is simply impossible To keep every
thing in perfect order all the time.
Doubtless Mrs. Precision has been
caught in confusion before now, like
the rest Of her sex. 1t is refreshing
to go into houses of our friends and
see things little tOpsy-turvy, and be
assured Dy what we see that 1--WE are
mortal, and only what is common
has happened to US :" that Just when
company comes our friend has moth
ing cooked that children usually
quiet and orderly, when animated by
the presence of visitors, "shOw off"
to the greatest possible disadvantage,
and thus that other people have their
trials as well as We ours, and that
the difference between these
and those is quite trivial.
On the other hand, it is really depres-
sing to come across 8 woman who al
ways, under all circumstances and on
all occasions, is ready for company !;
on whose ceilings spiders never hang
their webs, behind whose furniture
dust never hides, whose closets and
drawers and trunks being thrown
wide open at any moment, show or
derly interiors.
Let the language be changed q lit.
tie if such woman could be found,
it would be diseouraging to persons Of
ordinary feelings. While she had
been polishing her silver, nOtehing
her shelf paper, fiuting her pillow
shams, adjusting the position OF easy
chairs and ottomans, ana brushing
away tha last suggestion of dust from
the mantelpiece possibly IL might ap-
pear that she had not had time TO
glance at the latest discoveries in Sci
enee, to enjoy the last new poems in
our leading magazines, and that she
is by no means q leader in the literary
and intellectual world.
Should she apologize for this ? By
no means let her be happy, if thus
it must be, with only hOusekeepers,
and let her sister, who loves some
thing else better than painful dOmes-
tic neatness, rejoice without envy in
that something better. 1t is much
the wiser and nobler way 10 pass the
little thing for which apologies are
made in silence, and to lead, IL possi-
ble, the minds Of visitors not toward
but away from those things which
suggest apologies. The habituai
apOlOgist is invariably weak in mind
or body, and often both.

The Bio Grande.

Under the direction of the Presi-
dent, the War and Navy depart
ments have concerted plans for ope-
rating against Mexican raiders along
the Texas border. The steamer Ply
mouth, carrying two steam launches,
with Gatling guns aud q proper force
for them, left Port Royal this morn
ing for the Rio Grande. Two more
launches are to be sent down Ia q few
days, and proper officers are now en-
gagged in looking for the largest tug
suitable for the work that can be got
over the bar at the mouth OF the river.
When found the Navy Department
will hire or buy il, arm It thoroughly,
and send It at once to the Rio Grande.
II will serve as 8 store ship and head
quarters for the launch feet. The
land forces are also to give vigorous
aid.

The Ann Ar0or correspondent Of
the Marine City Gazette tells how a
member Of the junior class in the Uni
versity gained great glory and nn-
speakable gratitude of the family
where he LOards by driving ont bur-
glar the other night, firing three
shots after him, and bespattering the
sidewalk with blood. Subsequent in
vestigstIon showed that the burglar
was q eOmrade, admitted into the
house by agreement, and at 3 given
signal, had gallOped of, shedding car
mine ink, while his pursuer WAS fir
ing frantieally over the house. That
junior .:as the elements OF hero in
him. He don't wait for occasions,
but makes them.

A Fayetteville Lore stOry.

He was young, he was fair and he
parted his hair, like the average beau,
in the middle !; he was proud, he was
b0ld, but the truth must be told, he
played like a fiend on the fiddle. But
aside from this vice he was everything
nice, and bis heart was SO loving and
tender, that he always turned pale
when be trod on the tail of the cat
lying down by the fender. He
clerked in the store, and the
way that he tore off calico,
jeans and Notwithstanding would have
tiekIed calf aud made brute laugh
in the face or q quarterly meeting.
He cut quite q dash with darling
naoustache, which he learned to
adore and cherish /; for one girl had
said, 'tWould kill her to see the thing
perish. On Sunday bed search the
straight road to the church, unheed-
ing the voice of the seorner and de-
mureIy he sat, like young tabby cat
with the saints in the far amen cor

voice was heard fairly tugging away

she was young, she was fair, and
she scrambled her hair like the ave-
rage belle of the city she was proud,
but not bold, yet the truth must be
told, the way she chewed wax was a
pity. But aside from this vice she
was everything nice and the world
much applauded her hustle and the
Fayetteville. boys, being charmed by
the noise, walked miles just to hear
the thing rustic. She cut quite q swell,
did this wax-chewing belle, and the
men flocked in armies to meet her /;
but she gave them the shirk, for she
loved the young clerk, who sung like
a hungry mosquito. She hemmed
aad she hawed, and she sighed and
she chawed until her heart and Jaws
were both broken then she walked
by bis store, while he stood at the
door awaiting some friendly token.
She raised up her eyes with a pretty
surprise and tried to enact the
proud scorner but to tell the plain
truth, she just grinned at the youth
who loved the devout amen corner.

THE AveSG1xG Army OF LsOUsrs.

The Arabs believe that the locusts bear on
their wings in Arabic characters words
showing them to be the ayenging army OF
Allah. The following lisa translation OF an
old Eastern poem, with which some of our
readers may be acquainted:
day OF darkness and OF gloom;
a day OF clouds at morning spread
In lurid CLEANS. presagIng doom,
Around the mountains stormy mead.
And 10 a people matchless, strong,
Rise o'er the far horizons rim,
And sweep like fire the lands along,
Led by ayeaging Seraphim.
Swift as an Arabs charger reels
In laundering night Ger desert ground
They come, while ring their chariot wheels
And loud and shrill their trum Iets sound
Before the face the people mourn
Before their breath the granary stored,
The field, the threshing-aoOr. the corn
Shrink from the army OF the Lord.
Like mighty men they eager run
Like men OF war they climb the wall;
Each speeds his way, nor any one
Can break those ranks; and thou gh they
fall
Upon the sword they shall not die.
Yea, through the city shall they go
like pestilence. and man shall fly
Before their wrath God wills II so.
Toe earth shall quake beneath their tread.
And darkness shrOud the stars and moon,
The heavens shall tremble as la dread
Like blaekest night shall be the naon.
Then in the van the Lord shalt cry,
Great is the Lord who Is beside
His armies MI the earth and sky;
His day what mortal shall abide?

The Iowa Democrats haze IN ct,
nominated a State ticket and had
their little whack at the questions of
the day in the creation Of q platform
The only plank in their concern
worthy of note is the one on the
finances, which we commend as the
most successful effort at stately am
biguity that will be found in the pol
itics OF this year. 1t declares "that
we are in favor OF resumption of
specie payment as soon as the same
can be done without injury To the
business interests of the country, and
meantime sufficient supply Of Da-
tional currency for business purposes !;
opposition to the present National
BAnking law" 1t would bJ y hard
hearted and captiOus Democrat in
deed, who could not be satisfied with
such q double-ender as that. The
first clause in the sentences embOdies
precisely the meaning of the Ohio
Republican finance plank the last
clause of the same sentence correctly
sets forth the imitation doctrine Of the
Ohio Democrats. AS the finance
policy OF the two parties in Ohio is
on all hands t) be precisely
antipodal, the success of the Iowa
trimmers in adapting their platform
to all shades Of political sentiment is
quite equal to that OF their Ohio
brethren in mOHnting Pot Metal Bill
Allen on an imitation platform, and
Crusader Sam Cary on free whisky
plank. But what will the impartial
observer of current events say OF q
party which deliberately stultifies in
this way

ABoy's Goodness.

A boy got his grsndfather's gun and
loaded il, but was afraid TO fire he,
however, liked the fun Of loading,
and 80 put in another charge, but was
still afraid to fire. He kept on charg.
ing, but without firing, until he g0l
six charges in the old piece. His
grandmother, learning his temerity,
smartly reproved him, and grasping
the old continental, discharged it.
The result was tremendous, throwing
the old lady on her back. She
promptly struggled 10 regain her feet,
but the boy cried Out,-'Lie still,
granny, there are five more charges
TO go off yet"

THERE CONES A TIME.

THERE CONES A TIME.
There comes a time when we grow old,
And like a sunset down tbs sea
slope gradual, and the night wind co Id
Comes whispering sad and chilling;
And locks are gray
As winters day,
And eyes OF saddest blue behold
And leaves all dreary drift away,
And lips Of faded coral say,
There comes time when We gr ow old
There comes a time when joyous hearts.
Which leaped as leap the laughing main.
Are dead TO all save memory.
As prisoner In his dungeon chain
And dawn of day
Hath passed away,
The moon hath into darkness rolled,
And by the embers warm and gray,
1 hear a voice in whisper say,
There comes time when we grow old
There comes a time when manhood's prime
Is shrOuded In the mist of years,
And beauty, fading like dream,
Hath passed away in silent tears
And then the darkl
But OH the spark
That kinGled youth to hues OF gold,
Still burns with clear and steady ray,
And fond affections lingering, say,
There comes a time when we grow old.
Therecomes time when laughing Spring
And golden Summer ceases to be,
And we put on the Autumn robe,
To tread the last declivity;
And now the slope,
With rosy hope,
Beyond the sunset we behold
Another dawn, with faIrer light,
While watchers whisper thro' the night,
There comes time when we grow old.

heart with joy, abe was asked where
she would have them sent, and said /:

ton Of matrimonial statistics, has
discovered that out OF one hundred
blonde women thirty-segen remain
old maids by the wayside, while out
of one hundred brunettes only eigh-
teen stop without q husband. A lit
tie girl, three years old, to whom he
impaired this information, asked him
to make her 9 brunette.

SOME years ago the first, last and only
National Bank of Nevada commenced
operations in Austin. 1t issued bills,
loaned money and received deposits,
and did lively business for a while;
but in 1870 it collapsed and left de-
positors lamenting. Some men who
had deposited their all in the bank
were financially ruined. while others,
who had overdrawn their accounts and
borrowed money of the institution,
were gamers by its failure. The bank
was adjudged bankrupt, and a receiver
