QUITE A LITTLE ROMANCE.

We hear of quite a romantic affair
in private life, the parties to which
reside in the upper portion of this
country: In 1866 a Mr.-took to
himself a young wife to adorn his
household. After living happily to-
gether for four months, the young
bride, without any apparent cause,
took a notion that "she wanted to see
her mamma" and left the husband
solitary and alone. Time rolled on,
but the recreant wife did not return
to cheer his desolate home until last
Sunday morning. Thus, after an ab-
sence of nine years, though hus band
and wife were living within 5 or 6
miles of each other, the wife volun-
tarily returns. 1t may be possible
that she learned of a recent visit of
her spouse to this place when the SER
vices Of an attorney were procured to
file a bill Of divorce on the ground
of desertion. Our legal friend was
seated at his desk on Monday morn
ing, drawing up the bill in question,
wuen a note was handed him notify:
ing him that his services would not
be required, as the wife had returned.

Last Monday morning, man and
Wife who live about g miles east: Of
Willis, left home on business, leaving
their house IN charge Of their eldest
child about y years of age, To-
wards noon the child heard the in:
fant, aged IA months, which had
been laid while asleep on a bed in an
adj joining room, utter horrid screeeh,
upon which. she Immediately ran to
its relief, and imagine her: feelings,
upon opening the door, to see huge
panther with the babe in its mouth
leaping from an open window, imme-
diately over the bed But she, like
a true heroine, sprang upon the bed
and then out Of the window, scream
ing at the height Of her voice, and,
upon being joined by the other chill
dren about the house, pursued the.
panther at her utmost speed. They
followed about forty rods, to a pair
of bars which separated the clearing
from the forest, at which place the
girl states that she approached to
within Is: or 20 feet of the panther,
when it: :relinquished its hold of the
child, 1eaped the bars, and made its
way to the woods. The infant was
picked up, much strangled from its
rapid movement through the grass
and sand, which had filled its mouth
and eyes, but soon recovered and is
now we'll, save a few scratches about
its body which have the appearance
Of having been made by the panther's
teeth. These marks are very plain,
and there are several blood blisters
where the teeth in slipping came in
contact. The girl states that the
panther dropped the child once be-
fore arriving at the fence, and it is
supposed the giving away of the
clothing was the cause, as it was much
torn.-Houston TEXAS Telegraph

in the Baptist Union, that he once
dismissed congregation on hot
day, just after the p'7ing hymn,
with these words: "Dcar brethren,
I do not believe that the Lord is
pleased with our attempt to obey one
law of His ordaining by the violation
of another. 1t seems to me that the

as binding as that which was engrav-

A ROYAL COURTSHIP.

Napoleon I. was always in too
great a hurry. This characteristic
quality especially showed itself when
he set about committing that most
proftless of crimes, the divorce of
Josephine. He first thought of mar
rying the Grand Duchess Anne, sis
ter Of the Emperor of Russia. Be-
fore Caulain court, the French Am
bassador at St. Petersburgh, had had
time to sound the Car on the subject,
Napoleon had changed his mind and
decided on an alliance with the
House Of Hapsburg. Such being the
case, his course was clear enough;
viz: to instruct Caulaincourt not to
press his suit too eagerly, to show no
disposition to smoothe away difficult
ties, and to allow the negotiation
gradually to fall to the ground. In
stead of this Napoleon sent letter,
probably without precedent in the
annals of courtship, in which he Or
dered his ambassador to present
kind of matrimonial ultimatum to
the Car, demanding a categorical
answer, before the expiration of ter
days, to his proposal. OF course this
was to ensure refusal, and so to set
the Emperor at liberty, but at the
cost of afronting the only monarch
on the continent Of Europe whom
Napoleon had reason to fear. Three
hundred thousand French soldiers
were to pay with their lives for this
piece of brainless impertinence. But
such are the natural results of imper-
ialism, or the government of a nation
for the benefit of an Individual.
Will France return to this rule p

EDUCATIONAL SUGGESTIONS.

discussion need not to refer to books
either to aid hismemory or to increase
his knowledge, and he Bho does not

pupil might as we'll change places
with him, Or both together become

regard TO- the teaching, of the English
tongue: .The'pupii's writing, spell
ling, use Of capitals and italics, syn
tactical forms, and general style Of
expression, are not transcended in
importance by anything else learned
IN the school: And so. long as he
has been using the Language with no
reference to correctness whatever,
and with so many associations and
influences operating against it, that
your work Of securing that correct
ness is undertaken at a tremendous
disadvantage. Now, Of all forlorn
hopes, the most for1orn and fatal is,
that you are to succeed in teaching
the pupil to read and write the En-
glish language Correctly by carry
ing the people through the class study
of an English grammar. 1t should
be borne in mind how ever present the
practical parts Of this study are in
that Of the other branches. Hence,
in all the studies and exercises, eth

WHY POSTAL CARDS GO AsTRAY.

Although the Post Office Depart
ment does things on a magnificent
scale so far as establishing fast mail
trainsis concerned, d,itis capable of de-
scending to very small transactions
when dealing with the people. For in
stance, "a rule" has been established
that if anything whatever except an
address is written or printed on the
side of a postal card intended for the
address, it renders the card unmaila-
BILE, unless prepaid at the regular let.
ter rate. If; however, by any inad-
vertance on the part Of local post
master the card should be forwar ded
to its destination without such pay
ment, it is charged with double rates,
An announcement to this effect has
just been put forth from Washington
in consequence Of numerous com
plants which have been received at-
the Department. In one case a Chi
cago firm complained that six cents
extra postage had been charged be-
cause on the lower left hand corner
Of its face the date, "Sept. 13, 1876"
was written. In this case the Chica-
go firm had the satisfaction of being
informed that they were entitled to a
rebate of one cent, as the postmaster
should have given them credit for the
original cost of the card, and collect
ed only five cents extra for the date.
Probably not one in ten thousand
has ever heard of this rule, and
thousands of postal cards have failed
to reach their destination in conse-
ouence of it's enforcement.

stMODkRATELY-GOOD srEPPERs.'

A good joke is told Of a wealthy
New Yorker, with an eye for q good
horse, who, shortly after betaking
himself to his summer residence on
Long Island, in April last, was sitting
on his piazza one fine morning, and
noticing pair of fine steppers that
were being driven on the road in
front of his house. The team con-
sisted of a bay and gray mare, and
the driver was an unassuming, quiet,
well-behaved young man. The New
Yorker noticed them again on the
following day, and was more impress
ed with their fine style and graceful
step, and he decided at once to buy
them. Accordingly, on the next day
he stationed himself at his gate, and
when the team came jogging by, be
signaled the driver to stop. "That's
pretty fair team you driye," says
he. Eyes, they are moderately-good
steppers," was the response. care
they for sale ?" asked the New York
er. "Well, yes; I would sell them,"
was the rather hesitating reply.
''Send them along down the road and
back, so that I can see how they
move," says the New Yorker. Up
and down they were sent.a few times,
and at length the gentleman seemed
satisfied, and signaled the driver to
pull up. Il like them," said he,
*.pretty well, and will buy them if the
price is not too high; what do you
ask for them?" "Slxty-fve thousand
dollars" was the reply, very coollely
given. The gentleman opened his
eyes and mouth in astonishment, and

at the high price of good fair road

FROM HEINH,

MY love and I were floating
Alone in our light canoe,
The night was calm as we drifted
Out on the waters blue.
The spirit isle In its beauty
Was glitterins in rosy haze,
Enchanting sounds were trembling
Through wondrous elm maze.
1t rushed DER the moonlit waters,
1t waved in mysterious glee,
But we've drifted onward,
Hopeless, upon the sea.
