William b. AStOr's Will,

Mr.. William B. Aston has of course so
left his property that it remains in the
Aston family, and the bulk of it in the
hands of two of his sons. His daugh-
tiers, Mrs Carey and Mrs. Delano, and
his granddaughter, Mrs. Chanler, get
only life estate in what they receive,
with the exception of few houses and
lots absolutely bequeathed. They each
were rich before, and will be better able
now than ever to keep the wolf from the
door. His son, Henry Astor, who lives
in Columbia county, was so well pro-
vided for before by his grandfather and
great uncle, Henry Aston, that he gets a
comparatively small slice. The residue
of the real estate of old John Jacob AS
tor. in which William B. Astor had only
life estate, with power of appointment
among his issue, is handed down to his
sons, John Jacob and William, in equal
shares, and in fee simple absolute and
William B. Astor's one-half of the personal
OopttOOOl OlC OlIt 1uI rs dlSO buIldlIY
divided among the two favored boys. The
rest of the estate of William 3. Astor,
in his own right, is trusteed for the bene.
fit of John Jacob and William.
These provisions of the will, Joined to
the known purposes of the inheritinq
sons, will secure the continuance of the
great Aston property in the possession
of few of the name. The sons are
prudent and thrifty men, and they will
see to it that when they come to hand
it down, it shall not have failed to grow
in value by reason of extravaganza Oh
too great hberality.
In addition to the $3.50, 900 he gave
during life to the Aston Library, Mr.
Aston bequeaths it 100000 now
Leaving out few small legacies tc
charitable and religious societies, this ii
all of the great estate that in any wist
goes to the public. E

England's Navy.

A recent squib of Punch represents
Admiral Nelson as descending from his
monument one morning and stepping
into the admiralty Office, expressing a
desire to see a model ship of modern
build. The obliging clerk hands him a
list from which to choose. He selects
one ship which had unfortunately been
run ashore. He selects another whose
boiler had burst. He finally settles down
on the Vanguard, which the chagrined
official tells him is sunk in the channel
Said the admiral, turning on his heel
England has got a navy where she
never had one before, and that is at the
bottom of the seal"

How CalifOrnians Get their Pork.

There is district of country lying
west of Bakersfield, CAL, and about
twenty-five miles distant, which is the
source of much exciting sport. 1t is low
tule land stretching across the country
distance of fifty miles, and averaging
from four to seven miles in width. AS
far back as fifteen years ago the hogs of
settlers began to stray away into these
tules and grow wild. This has been
going on ever since, and they have bred
until they are now found to be very nu-
merous, and in a perfectly wild state.
They are of all ages, from sucking pigs
to venerable old patriarchs of perhaps a
dozen years, and weighing from a few
pounds to 600 and 700 weight. OF late
years people began to hunt them, and it
has grown quite a business. Parties of
two or three go down there with their
wagons, on which are covered pens, and
stay two or three days. They carry their
guns and six-shooters, and some use
lassoes. The hunting is done with
dogs. Having struck trail, the dogs
follow it up until they bring the game
to bay, when the old males frequently
assume the offensive, and fight with des-
desperate and sometimes with terrible
effect. The huntsmen are always on
horseback, and, the game being flushed,
generally use their revolvers to bring it
down. Some they capture with dogs
and bring away alive, and sometimes
they are lassoed and thus secured. With
the large hogs, which the dogs cannot
manage, harsher means are used, and
they are shot down with six-shooters.
Some parties have, in this way, some
times secured as high as twenty-five
hogs in one day, and dozen is not al
unusual catch.
The business is found to be quite
profitable. The hogs are usually il
good condition, and the flesh is good
though at rare intervals the flesh tastes
a little fshy. They are of all colors, ant
are frequently found in bands of twenty
five and thirty.

A Fearful Case of Insanity.

A terrible tragedy took place at Arden,
Ont, few days since. The Rev. J. T.
Clarke, the resident minister Of the
Methodist Episcopal church, betrayed
symptoms of insanity, and obtained a
promise from his friends that if he
should go mad they would keep him
home and not send him to the asylum.
On the day in question his wife was
lying sick up stairs and he desired to &c
and see her. AS she was very i'll, and
he much excited, Mr.. Clarke's father re.
sisted his sons attempt to ascend the
stairway, and a struggle ensued in which
the maniac kicked his father in the
stomach and killed him. He then seizet
his little boy, aged two, and threw hin
down stairs, breaking his collar bone
By this time the neighbors had entereC
the house and secured the maniac.

Marriage Pro TEN,

1t does not often happen that couple
are soidly, legally, effectually and for
ever married, without intending or
knowing it. But this is what has hap
pened to Mr.. Angel and the Widow
Hunt, at Jackson, Mich. Both are of
the advanced, philosophical sort. Both
believe that marriage should last only
while it is perfectly agreeable to both
parties. Both have "views." Both
think that "the old and Earbarous sys-
tenn of marriage holds woman in subjec-
ton to man, and requires her to sur
render her individuality" which last, for
our part, we have always thought to be
the beauty of it. Angel & Hunt prefer
limited copartnership. Each wishes to
keep his or her heart. Each intends to
remain Z" an Individual So they drew
up kind of marriage settlement of their
souls upon themselves. "We submit, %
they say, "to the behests of the law SO
far as to make our union legal, and that
we may avoid unnecessary annoyance.
If the union and harmony that now
exist between us should continue through
our natural lives, then this contract is to
remain in force otherwise to be null
and void. (Signed) A. A. Angel, E.
Hunt" With this caveat in hand, they
went before Judge Potts. Do you, y
said Potts, "adhere to this contract
Are these your sentiments p Then they
said that they adhered, and Potts pro-
nounced them married.
Potts was right. They are married
solidly, legally, effectually, and forever
If Angel thinks that he is not, let hin
take up with another woman, and the
officers of the law will give him little
information which will be more positive
than agreeable. If Mrs. Elizabeth
Angel thinks that she is still single, ant
not obliged to stand the Angelic naggine
about breakfast and buttons, let he
marry some other seraph, and find on
the meaning of the word bigamy. The
law is no fool, if we may use the expires
sion. You cannot humbug the law will
your documents and reservations anG
views and peculiar opinions. Your docu
ment is dead letter. Potts did you
business. He thought you might be
little crazy, but he married you in first
rate style, all the same. We publish
these facts for the benefit of those VIII,
think that having views they can b
married and unmarried at the same timt
that they may enjoy all the advantage
of the honorable condition Of matrimony
while they like it, and throw off its fet
tiers when these become wearisome. Ac
cording to all the law in the world, Mrs
Hunt that was is Mrs. Angel that is
and as for Angel himself he is in mar
ried state, "with all the privileges an
appurtenances thereunto belonging. -

Stopping.

Sir John Bennett, the alderman and
well known matchmaker in the city of
London, delivered lecture the other
day, during which he made the follow
ing happy metaphor: "You can stop a
clock at any moment" he said, "but
you cannot stop watch. So it is with
the talk of men and of women. Man is
great ugly, coarse machine, but you
can silence him. Woman is q beautiful,

Dull, heavy headache, obstruction of the

watery, and acrid, at others thick, tenacious,

eyes are weak watery, and infamed; there is
ringing in the ears, deafness, hacking or
coughing to clear the throat, expectoration Of
offensive matter, together with scabs from
ulcers the voice is changed and has a nasal
twang, the breath is offensive smell and taste
are impaired; there is a sensation of dizziness,
mental depression, hacking cough and general
debility. emily few of the above-named
