our defeat than any thing else; for

when at last we became enshrouded in

Insane Freak Of an Injured Husband.

One of the most extraordinary at
tempts at murder which has ever come
to light in the annals of crime, says the
Baltimore EUenisg News, transpired in
East Baltimore yesterday, when a re-
spectacle and respected German citi-
zen, incensed at the supposed infidelity
of his wife, attempted to take the un-
happy woman's life by holding her on
the railroad track in order that she
might be crushed by the cars. The
affair has caused the most intense ex-
element in the neighborhood where it
occurred, and while some condemn the
cruelty of the act, the husband is not
without hosts of sympathizers. From
what can be learned in the matter, it
appears that on Wednesday night Mr..
Charles Mush, who is said to be an In
dustrious, hard-working man, returned
at late hour to his residence, on South
Ann Street, two doors below the drug
store of Evans & Burton, and upon en-
tering his sleeping apartment was sur
prised to meet there an old friend named
Triteman. The first impulse of the en-
ragged Mush was to seize the fellow and
hurl him through the window, but
huge knife which Triteman held in his
hand, as if expecting to be attacked,
prevented this action. Triteman then
became the aggressor, and, brandish-
ing the knife, he ordered the ssman of
the house, to get down stairs and leave
the premises. Mush failing to comply,
the knife was dropped and Triteman
carried him down by main force. The
two left the house together, and, after
a consultation on the corner, the mat
ter was apparently settled by the In
jured husband borrowing quid of to-
bacco from his quondam friend. He
seemed like oneScrazed, moving about
and speaking almost mechanically.
During yesterday, however, he recon
sidered matters and repaired to his
home determined to take revenge on
his wife Eliza. He at first procured a
shotgun, and, pointing it at her head,
pulled the trigger. The weapon miss
ing fire, he gave a cry Of disappoint-
ment, and then seizing an ak he drove
the unhappy woman into the street and
threw her down upon the car track.
She struggled and begged for mercy,
but, standing above her with the up
lifted AK, he shrieked that if she moved
until car came he would sever her
head from her body The dramatic |
scene soon attracted a crowd of people,
a portion of whom disarmed Mr.. Mush |
and procured the clothing of Mrs.
Mush, who said she was afraid to enter
the house again. Rolling the apparel
into bundle she started for Carroll
County, where it is said her relatives
reside. Persons who profess to know
the family well saythat Mush is quiet,
peaceable man, that his love for his |
wife and little ones amounted almost to |
idolatry, and that his action of last
evening was caused through frenzy.
Like his wife, he has left the city, it
to escape arrest, and the once |
happy home is now completely desert
ed. The cause of the trouble is still at |
large and boasting, it is alleged, of his
part in the unhappy and unfortunate
affair.

" 4 GOOD HAMMER. ."--Twcn.y-ni
years ago, when David Maydole was a
roadside blacksmith at Norwich, y, y,
six carpenters cane to the village from the
next county to work upon new church.
one of whom, having left his hammer be-
hind, came to the blacksmith to get orc
made, there being none in the village store.
"Make me so ID one,' said the carpen-
ter, ''as good one as you know how
But" said the young blacksmith, who
had already considered hammers, and had
arrived at some notion of what Il hammer
ought to be, and had proper contempt
for cheapness in all its forms, perhaps
you don't want to pay for as good a one as
| can make
eyes, l do want good hammer
And 80 David Mavoole made a good ham
mer-;he best one probably that had ever
been made since Tubal Cain, and one that
perfectly satisfied the carpenter. The
next day the mans five companions came,
each of them wanting just such hammer,
and when they were doue the employer
came and ordered two more. Next the
store-kecper of the village ordered two
dozen, which were bought by New York
tool merchant, who left a standing order
for as many such hammers as David May
dole could make. And from shat day to
this he has gone on making hammers, un-
til now he has one hundred and fifteen
men at work. He has often advertised,
but has..uever pushed. lie has never bor-
rowed. He has never tried to compete
with others in price. He has never reduc-
ed a price because other mes had done so.
His only care has been TO make "A perfect
hammer, to make as many such as people
wanted, and no more, and to sell them 1t
a fair price.

The Country School Ma'0n..
BY JAMES w. CLIFFORD.

In shapely boots and apron white,
And ueatly-fitting dresses,
With braided hat that scarcely shades
Her wealth of flowing tresses,
Down through the meadows, fair and green
The country school ma am passes,
Each morn with smiling face to greet
The laddies and the lasses.
The grass is heavy with the dew,
The sky is bright above her.
The sunlight fingers on her path,
The song-brds seem to love her;
They fit about her through the air,
And sing their sweetest praises,
The grasses spring to kiss her feet,
The clover and the daisies.
The children round the school house door,
Make haste to claim their greeting,
Their sunny faces flushed with joy,
Their little hearts fast beating.
All, We who claim life's pleasures vain,
Have never known what bliss is,
Unless your youthful lips have felt
The country school aams kisses.
All, well do I remember when,
In other summer weather,
Fair little Maud and trudged down
The country road together;
Her dinner pail swung on her arm,
The meadow larks were singing,
While from its leafy perch, the thrush
Had set the hedge rows ringing.
Oh, happy days oh joyful past!
Too dear to be but iieeting,
For little Maud long years ago,
First heard the angels greeting;
But when the children home from school,
Come trooping through the clover,
A gain I feel myself boy,
And live the old days over.

NENORY OR INSTINCT.

Many years ago, | was on a mai-coach,
and, as soon as we came to public house,
the coach-man pulled ap for the fraction
of second. He did so when we came TO
a second public house, and then | asked
him the reason. He pointed to the off
hand wheeler, and said that she had been
long completely blind, and she would stop
at every place on the road at which she
had before stopped. He had found 10y
experience that less time was wasted oy
pulling up his team than by trying to
drive her past the place, for she was cons
tented with a momentary stop. After
this | watched her, and it was evident
that she knew exactly before the coach
man began to pull up the other horses,
every public house on the road, for she
had at some time stopped at all. l think
there can be little doubt that this mare
recognized all these houses by her sense
of smell. With respect to cats, SO many
cases have been recorded of their return
ing for a considerable distance to their
homes, after having been carried ..away
shut up in baskets, that | can hardly dis
believe them, though these stories are dis
believed by some persons. Now, as far as
/ have observed, cats do not possess a very
acute sense of smell, aud they seem 10 dis
cover their prey 10y eyesight and by hear
ing. This leads me 20 mention another
trifiing fact. L sent a riding horse by rail
way from Kent Cia Yarmouth, to Fresh
water Bay, in the Isle of Wight. On the
first day that i rode eastward, my horse,
when l turned to 60 horne, was very un-
willing to return towards his stable, and
he several times turned round. This led
me to make repeated trials, and every
time that ! siackened the reins, he turned
sharply round, and began TO trot to the
eastward by a little north, which was near
ly in the direction of his home in Kent.
had ridden this horse daily for several
years, aud he had never before behaved in
this manner. My impression was that he
somehow knew the direction whence lie
had been brought. l should state that
the last stage from Yarmouth to Fresh
water is almost due south, and along thi:
road ho had been ridden by my groom
but he had never once shown any wish to
return in this direction. / had purchased
this horse several years before from a gen
tlemam in my own neighborhood, who had
possessed him for consider able time
Nevertheless, it is possible, though far
from probable, that the horse may have
been born i'll the Isle of Wight. Even if
we grant to animals sense of the points
of the compass, of which there is no evi-
dence, how can we account, for instance,
for the turtles-which formerly congrega-
ted i'll multitudes, only at the season OF
the year, on the shores of the Isle of AS
/ cension--fnding their way to that speck
of land in the midst of the great Atlantic
Ocean.-DartciH.
