behavior toward her did not alter. She was
never positively unkind or neglectful, but she
never took the little orphan into her affection
and Alice, learning to regard this as an unal-
terable fact, ceased, after a me, to sorrow
over it as she had done at first. Her cousins

there was congeniality between their natures

close companionship, which they all seemed
to think should exist, by right, between her
self and Rosa who was within few weeks OF
her own age. But Rosa was thoughtless

had not an idea in common with her pre-.
cocious cousin. She was good-natured and
lively, however, so that it was impossible not
to like her and Alice, finding that she could
not expect much sympathy of thought, or in
dulge in any interchange of confidence with
those who were so dissimilar to her in every
respect, contented herself with pleasant
matter-of-fact intercourse with them, while,
for relief and disqualification, she turned to

A PROBLEM SoLvED.-"What becomes of
needles and pins ?" is question partially an
swered. Grandma is dear, precise old lady,
much given to the making of pretty pin
cushions for others, while those devoted to
her own use grow old in service. On one of
those stormy days when access to "the store"
was IMPOSSIBLE it was discovered that mammals
work-box was destitute Of needles In the
emergency, grandma determined to open a
pin-cushion which had done her good service
for seven years, hoping that one or two needles
might be concealed therein. The result as
tonshed all interested: one hundred and fifty
shining needles did that greedy cushion dis
gorge; and mamma instantly collected all the
old cushions that the house contained, hoping
to increase her store. The result exceeded
her expectations from one cushion was ex-
tracted one hundred and seventy.fve needles,
and from the other one hundred and ten
making in all, from the three cushions, four
hundred and forty-eight needles. These
needles we're packed into the centres OF the
cushions and had all been slowed away in six
or seven years. Doubtless many millions OF
needles are hid away in cushions after this
manner, throughout the country, which might
be restored to usefulness, if the boys we're set
to work on rainy days to keep them out of
mischief:

to watch the movements of Ribault. All the
plans of the latter seem to have been we'll
known to the former. Melendez plainly and
boldly declared that the purpose tor which ne
was sent out was to exterminate the Huguenot
colony. Ribault determined to defend the
colony as best he could He pushed out to
sea, taking on board his fleet all his able
bodied men, leaving with Laudonnlere less
than one hundred men, and the women and
children, the sick and the infrm. The two
fleets came in sight, but before an engagement
took place, an equinoctial storm scattered the
fleet of Rbault, and drove it far away from
the colony. Melendez, when the storm ceased,
took advantage of Ribaults misfortune, and
fastened to the fort This he captured, and
brutaly put to death men, women and chill
dren. Only few escaped by taking shelter
in the woods. Afterward, Ribault and those
with him, preserved from the storm, returned
to the fort They were shown the dead bodies
of their companions hanging to the limbs OF
the trees, and then at a signal given by Me-
endez, they were made to share the same tate.
1t is said that Melendez skinned Ribault while
still living, and having stuffed his skin, sent it
to, his sovereign, Philip the Second, and his
holiness the Pope of Rome. Charles made
no attempt to avenge the blood of his citizens.
No doubt be was we'll pleased.
One De Gorgues did, however, visit merit
ed punishment upon the Spaniards for this
inhuman massacre. Having equipped small
fleet for the ostensible purpose of engaging IN
the slave trade, he set out, in 1867, for Fort
Caroline He made known his real purpose
to his men so soon as he was fairly out at sea.
They readily entered into his plans; The
garrison of Spaniards who were left in
fort La Caroline, were taken and put to death.
When Melendez hanged the garrison, ne
had placed above them this inscription: u
do this not to Frenchmen, but to heretics.".
De Gorgues took this down and inscribed
upon it these words: II do this not to Span
iards or Catholics, but to traitors, robbers
and murderers." Fort La Caroline perished to
the Huguenots in 1865. This earth. has no
more tragical spot St; Bartholomew's day
was Fort Caroline sre-enacted. Both are
blots on the name Of Charles and Melendez,

BorToM PRICES The Cincinnati Gazette
publishes list of over thirty leading articles
of consumption, and comparison Of their
prices for the years 1860 and 1875, so far as
the latter can be told. These articles are not
luxuries; but mostly necessities Of life, and, at
the most, comforts. The present quotations,
in but few instances, show rise that would not
indicate any violently varying, or disturbing
elements between the two periods mentioned.
Prime red wheat is eighteen cents bushel less
than in 1860; mess pork is only one dollar
more per barrel, and that increase may be &C
counted for by the improved foreign demand.
Sugar is at the same figure per pound apples
are cheaper, so are prints, soap and candles,
while pig iron, and the products made from
iron, are again upon an ante.war gold basis,
and so are dry goods and hardware generally:
The agricultural and closely allied interests of
the country are in a good condition, and
promise marked improvement in trade and
general industry before the year is over. For
the past year shrinkage in values has been
going forward that has brought us down to
rock bottom once more, and business men are
in q wav to find out where they stand.

ridicule. But nobody was at all aware of her
propensity for scribbling, or of the high flown
sentiments which gave rise to these cherished
productions so their existence was never sus-
pected, and they remained in perfect security
at the bottom of her trunk.
My readers are probably beginning to
weary of the record of Alice's childish days,
and childish ways. Her life at the farm con.
tinued to glide on, more or less smoothly, and

himself, by his cOnuuct, toward tnese pe'
nighted people. Soon the colonists com.
menced quarelling amongst themselves. They
had breathed the air of civil war from their
youths and although they had left France
and crossed the Atlantic and taken up their
abode on the shores of the New World, they
retained the same spirit of contention which
they had before quitting their native land.
A plan was concerted for degrading Laudon-
Mere. Two soldiers-one by the name of La
Roquette and the other by the name of La
Genre-attempted frstto poison Laudonniere.
Failing in this they attempted to kill him by
exploding the powder in the pot. In this they
failed also. In short time these desperadoes
were joined by several others, evil disposed and
insuboldinate like themselves. Laudonniere
was taken SICK These outlaws entered his
chamber, and by violence forced him to grant
them permission to scour the seas.
Two ships belonging to the colony were
taken possession of, and pilot was forced to
Join them. They proceeded to attack the
Spanish colonies, planted on the West India
Islands. They even captured the Governor
of Jamaica. But the Governor managed to
communicate with his friends, who came to his
relief One of the vessels escaped the Span
ish, and by the guidance of the pilot was
taken back to La Caroline, when the chiefs Of
this outrage were classified. Ribault was
sent out to relieve Laudonniere, but La Caro-.
line was destined to be destroyed, and that in
a most tragical manner. 1t is more than
probable, that although Charles the Ninth
granted the Huguenots permission to plant a
colony, he also planned, if not directly, indi-
rectly. its destruction. 'tfitj@" G%!3" .N'
