A Brave Girl.

In the middle of the winter of 1888, a
fire broke out in the female seminary at
Limoges, France, and spread with such
fearful rapidity that it was feared the
inmates would perish. Suddenly there
was cry that one little girl had been
left in her room. AS the excited spec
tators were beginning to pray for the
unfortunate child, tall girl, with dis
heyelled blonde hair and flowing night
gown, cut through the crowd, and with
cry of'I'll save her I" that rose above
the sound of cracking timbcrs and fall
ing masonry. dashed into the doorway.
A loud hurrah that was prolonged to
the echo only to be repeated again, at
tracted the attention Of the devotees,
and the pale-faced girl was seen skip
ping through the flames with the ter
rifed child.
A few days thereafter, King Louis
PHILIPPE sent the heroine a gold medal
for Ger bravery, and captain Of the
French army, who had witnessed the
girls courage, begged an introduction.
rhe captain is now President Of France,
and the brave girl Madame Mcmahon.

Does Oratory Tell i'm u P0-
IificaI Canvass

Is there not some criterion, asks an
exch ange, by which the exact power OF
oratory 10 its influence upon votes. can
be eleteyn. ined9 We were Of the opinion
that the talented speakers, from at home
and abroad, who enlightened the peo-
pie Of Ohio in the late campaign bad
much to do with the election Of Hayes,
but glance at the figures rather un
settles this belief The Democrats
seem to have made somo of their heav-
lest gains in counties and districts where
the largest amount Of Republican mis-
sionary work was done.
Cleveland aud Cincinnati turned the
scale against Allen. and in these cities
the amount of public speaking was
small compared to that IN some of the
rural districts. We fear it would be
quite discouraging to the great Column
ban orator TO be informed of the small
part he played, after all, in shaping the
destinies of the Nation.

Real Estate SliII Falling.

A New York letter to the Hartford
Times says:
Owners of real estate, and holders Of
real estate mortgages, are a good deal
exercised over the result of large auc-
tion sale recently The property is Of
the class known as the gilt edged lots,
and is located on and near Fifth and
Madison avenues, close to Central Park.
The prices realized were in most instan-
ces exceedingly low. Before the panic
of 1873 the property would have been
eagerly sought at high prices, but now
much of it goes at a decline OF 80 to so
per cent. And it is worthy of note
that several of the buyers of yesterday
were Hebrews.
A few years ago il one of these at
tempted to buy in that ueighborhood
he was instantly crowded out, but now
he can step in and buy any piece Of
property he watts and there is hardly
man to bid against him. 1t begins
to look mighty blue for banks andin-
surapce companies who have large
amounts loaned on unimproved up
town property. If they called in their
money the parties could not pay, and
if they forecloscd a great deal of the
property wouldn't bring the amount of
the mortgages. SO they just have to
sit down and wait for something to
turn up
