oct bad shift.
Robert Burns married farm girl with
whom be fell in love while they worked
together in plowed field. de was ir-
regular in his life and committed the
most serious mistakes in conducting his
domestic affairs.
Milton married the daughter of a
country squire, but lived with her but
u short time. He was an austere liter
ary recluse, while she was ROSY, rom
ping country lass that could not endure
the restraint imposed upon her, so they
separated. Subsequently. however, she
returned, and they lived tolerably hap.
Pv.
Queen Victoria and Prince Albert
were cousins, and about the only ex-
ample in the long line of English mon-
archs wherein the marital vows were
sacredly observed, aud sincere affect
tion existed.
Shakespeare loved and weddeda a farm
er's daughter. She was faithful to
her vows but we could hardly saw
the same of the bard himself. Like
most of the great poets, he showed too
little discrimination in bestowing his
affections on the other sex.
Washington married a woman with
two children. 1t is enough to saw she
was worthy Of him and they lived as
married folks should hve-in perfect
harmony.
John Adams married the daughter
of a Presbyterian clergyman Her faith
er objected on account of John being a
lawyer. He had a bad opinion of the
morals Of the profession.
John Howard, the great philanthro-
pist, married his nurse. She was al
together beneath him in social life and
intellectual CAPACITY. and hesides thi.
was fif,y-two years old, while he was
but twenty five. He would not take
"no" for an answer. and they were
married and lived happily together un.
til she died, which, occurred two year.
afterwards.
Peter the great Of Russia married o
peasant. She made an excellent wifi,
and a sagacious Empress.
Humboldt married a poorgirl because
he loved her. Of course they wer,
happy.

fact that we have begun to go down

ten hear of the ironies of life. The
saddest irony is its brevity-our days

EIGHTEEN HUNDRED YEARS AFTER

EIGHTEEN HUNDRED YEARS AFTER
DEATH.-A correspondent, writing of
excavations of Pompeii, saws:
"Among the most interesting Of the
objects found recently are two skele-
tons, one of somewhat elderly man.
the other of woman. They were found
in the Via Stabia, among the ashes Of
the last eruption. evidently overtaken
in their flight, and buried among the
cinders According TO the usual meth
cd employed to preserve the external
appearance Of objects, liquid plaster
was poured into the cavity. which. serv-
ing as mould. fac-simile oftheforms
was obtained, and thus. perfectly pre-
served. the statue-like bodies were
placed in glass eases in the Pompeii
Museum. While approaching all the
horror Of such death, and the suffer.
ing endured. as shown nv the position
of the limbs, one cannot but imagine
what would have been the astonishmen,
of that man and woman had so"s
prophet informed them that eighteen
hundred years after their death. their
forms, and even as much Of their gar.
ments rs were not consumed in the
eruption, would he placed in a museum
for inspection by a multitude of sight
seers, some from lands the existence o.
which they never dreamed of! The
poor woman is lying on her face; and
even the form of her hair, put up be-
hind, is seen. One arm shields bel
forehead, and she is supported bv the
other. Her stony limbs are we'l-formed
and traces Of garment are seen pass
ing in folds around ber. The man
although placed on his back in the ex.
hibitiou-when found was turned OF
his side. One arm rests on his hip; the
other is uplifted. The face is some
what distorted, but massive and smooth
ly-shaven. Even the form Of the ;as.
tening of the sandals around the ankle
and Of the long button higher up or
the leg to bold them, is clearly seem
The limbs are partly drawn up. Th,
skeleton of tolerably large dog. alsc
recently found. is in the museum o.
Pompeii. his whole form preserved il

Just mentioned. He is lying on hi,
hack, writhing in suffering, bitin: hi
