A Dangerous Cradle.

Here is a true duck story One of
the wild ducks that usually swim in the
pond near my pulpit had it from an
elder duck who has seen the cradle.
Away off at the north of the north
coast of Scotland are the Shetland Isl
ands so steep, cold, barren and lonely
that focks of seabirds go there at GER
tain seasons of the year to build their
nests and lay their eggs, thinking that
they will not be disturbed in such a
place. But the eggs have their value !;
SO the few and poor inhabitants of the
bleak and rocky islands are willing to
descend the most dreadful precipices
and climb the most difficult heights to
find them.
Near the coast of one of the islands,
but st parated from it by tempestuous
channel, stands very high and nearly
perpendicular pillar of rock. Here, on
this steep and desolate height, the sea-
birds come in great numbers year after
year but at last a man, who could
climb even more dreadful precipices
than the hardest Shetlanders would
dare to scale, went in a boat to the foot
of the rock, and climbed it's steep sides,
carrying with him a pully and very
strong rope, one end Of which was al
ready fastened on the highest point of a
neighboring island on the side nearest
the pillar. Arriving, after much toll
and danger, at the summit of the pill
lar, the man managed to get the rope
through the handles of a stout basket,
and then fastened the pulley to the
rock. Here, then, was a way by which
the islanders could get over to the pill
lar. By getting one at a time into the
basket, and swinging at this dizzy
height over the foamipg channel, the
islanders could pull themselves across
by means of the rope and pulley to OBJ
tain the eggs.-.St Nicholas.

A Patriotic Girl.

At the time General Greene retreated
before Lord Rawdon from ninety-six,
when he had passed Broad river he was
very DESTROYS tosend an order to General
Sumter, who was on the Wateree. to
join him, that they might attack Raw
don, who had divided his force. But
the general could find no man in that
part of the state who was bold enough
to undertake so dangerous a mission.
The country to be passed through for
many miles was full of blood thirsty
tories, who on every occasion that
offered imbrued their hands in the blood
of the wings. At length Emily Geiger
presented herself to General Greene,
and proposed to act as his messenger
and the general, both surprised and de-
lighted, closed with her proposal. He
accordingly wrote letter and delivered
1t, and at the same time communicated
the contents of it verbally, to be told to
Sumter in case of accidents. Emily
was young, but as to her person or adj
ventures on the way We have no further
information, except that she was
mounted on horseback upon a side sad
die, and on the second day of her jour
ney she was intercepted by Lord Raw
dOn's scouts. Coming from the direc-
ton of Greene's army, and not being
able to tell an untruth without blush
ing, Emily was suspected and confined
to a room, and as the officer in command
had the modesty not to search her at
the time, he sent for an old tory matron
as more fitting for that purpose. Emily
was not wanting in expedient, and as
soon as the door was closed and the
hustle little subsidized, she ate up the
letter, piece by piece. After awhile the
matron arrived, and, upon searching
carefully, nothing was to be found of
suspicious nature about the prisoner,
and she would disclose nothing. Sus-
picion being thus allayed, the officer
commanding the scouts suffered Emily
to depart whittier she said she was
bound but she took route somewhat
circuitous to avoid further detention,
and soon after struck into the road to
Sumter's camp, where she arrived in
safety. Emily told her adventure, and
delivered Greene's verbal message to
Sumter, who, in consequence, soon after

Queens of the Day and How They Look.


Three days ago Queen Victoria paid
a visit to the Empress Eugene at Whis-
lehurst, accompanied by two or three
ladies whose names can not remember.
They passed me at the station, and /
had a good opportunity to see her MAJ j.
esty, as she was very close to me, she Is
a medium sized woman, somewhat in
clined to stoutness, and has very ford
countenance. The features are not
markell; her mouth falls open very
often, and her lips are rather full. She
seems kind and gracious in manner, and
very simple entirely devoid of atfecta-
ton. Her voice is not trained to such
sweetness and grace of utterance as
mark that of the ex-empress. Of
course, being somewhat stout, she does
not move so gracefully as she might;
but take her all in all she is pleasant
looking, and one instinctively likes her
for noble woman. She was plainly
dressed in black silk, with heavy trim
mings of crepe, and wore widows vail
and white cap.
Queens look very like ordinary hui
manity, fairy stories to the contrary
Notwithstanding. Elizabeth, the en-
press of Austria, is a tall, slender, very
graceful woman, some thirty-fve or
thirty eight years old. Her eyes and
hair are brown, and she is rather thin
in the face and of rather sallow com.
pleixon. But her manner is very
charming.
The daughter of the czar of Russia,
who married the duke of Edinburgh, is
decidedly plain, in spite of all said to
the contrary, while the Princess Alex
andria has been and is still a fine look
ing woman. [ never saw the empress
of Russia, but I know her maid of hon
or, Hademoiselle Annenkoff, who told
me she was plain and rather masculine
looking.
To speak of the sultana of Turkey
would take more paper than have got
handy; there are o many of her. But
it is safe to say that you will find there
a very beautiful woman or two after the
Turkish taste. A fat, round woman,
with red cheeks and black eyebrows, is
| Turkish beauty-one easy to make
| since Banting wrote his book on dining
and corpulency, and cosmetics are SO
all-embracing.
Of the ex-Empress Eugene [ have
already spoken, 50 I shall but say that
she still holds her scepter of beauty
and queenly dignity.
But the beauty of all is the fair young
Queen Olga, of Greece. Rarely have
seen any person in any walk of life who
was so really lovely in all ways as she
is, and it is not to be wondered at that
the whole exposition stood petrifed tc
see her pass, and that murmurs of APP
probation and delight followed her
She was dressed in a light blue dress
with a white burnous carelessly thrown
over her magnificent shoulders, and 6
blue and white bonnet-the Greek CO..

Two HUNDRED HORSES KILLED BY
BUFFALO CHATS. last Sunday the
buffalo gnats made their appearance in
this and Clayton counties, also in Dunk
lin county, Mo-, in such vast swarms as
to prove very destructive to stock. We
were at Clarkton, Mo-, at the time they
made their appearance, and on our way
home the sight of dead horses and
mules along the road, and the report of
others off the road, was distressing in
the highest degree. We have made an
estimate as best we could from the vari-
GUS reports we received on our way
home Tuesday, and think the number
of horses and mules that have been
DESTROYED within two miles of the road
leading to Chalk Bluff from that place
to within eight miles of Gainesville, will
reach IT'S or 200 while the number in and
around Gainesville will add at least 25o
80 more to the number. We have no
report from below, but hope it is not so
bad in that direction. A great many
farmers have lost all their pillow stock,
while many others have not enough left
to cultivate their farms. This sad dis
pensation, added to the restitution that
existed before, has cast heavy gloom
over our people. - Gainesville (Ark. }

Caesar. M. D. Conway writes an &C
count of the spring gathering of these
disciples of the ancient Druids. They
meet at the solstitial period twice a
year, and, it CHANGED, assembled this
spring on Christian Palm Sunday.
They claim that in their great festivals
the Christians have borrowed ancient
customs and rites which prevailed
among the Druids long before the COM
ing of Christ. The Savior's resurrec.
ton is invested with symbols that once
meant the resurrection of nature. So
with other festivals. At the Welsh
meeting the archdruid gave an account
of the revival of Draidism in this
country, and read the names of some

American apostle, Ale Kedna, proposes
to start a Druidic newspaper in Roches-

been formed in New York, and a gath

summer. At the celebration such as
Conway describes, it is customary for
the archdruid to alter prayer from the

a poem. H5thetic as this worship may
be, its revival is not imminent.

wide-spreading notoriety, it is but
reasonable to suppose that it must

safest and most reliable remedial agent
for the cure of liver, kidney, bladder,

satisfied are we of the intrinsic worth
of this medicine, that we do not hest

we'll to mention that this medicine is
