therefore, redoubled their efforts, the

all the while held the child's foot in its

alarmed and confused by the boldness
of the assault, released its hold and
made its way rapidly into the deep

The Mark Lane Express in it's exhibit
of the crops says: The unsettled weather has
been very unfavorable for harvest work,
which is everywhere in progress, and high
temperature has put wheat in some danger OF
sproutng. While its condition must neces-
sarily be satisfactory, the London market,
from constant arrival Of foreign grain, has
not shown activity, or tendency upwards.
The Paris market has felt some inaction and
rates have given away one shilling to one shil-
ling six pence per quarter. 1t now seems
confirmed there, az well al here, that neither
in sample or quantity will it come up to last
wear. In Austria and Hungary the same sort
of result is looked upon as certain, and North
ern Europe has had much tho same sort OF
weather. Therefore samples must be ef
fected. Russia reports very unequal growth,
being most effected by drowth, the damage
from which subsequent rain could not repair.
Belgium and Holland have been much inter-
ferod with in their harvest, and spread OF the

Last Saturday, about sundown, four
miles east of this place on Biloxi bay,
occurred scene calculated TO send a
thrill of horror through every human
heart, and to make even the boldest
tremble with fear. Two little girls,
daughters of Mr.. Elan Il. Blackwell,
living on the Black bay of Biloxi, while
bathing in the bay Immediately III front
of his dwelling, were attacked by an
enormous alligator. The eldest, a girl
Of about seven years of age, was hold
ing the youngest, an infant OF two
years, in her hands, and was quietly
enjoying her bath, when suddenly her
little sister was snatched from her and
borne swiftly from the shore. Terrified
beyond measure, and unable to render
any assistance to her unfortunate sister,
the elder girl uttered IA scream, which
vas quickly caught by the ear OF the
father who happened, accidentily, to be
passing within thirty or forty yards of
the spot where his daughters We're
bathing. Realizing, instantly from The
tone of the voice, that his children were
in some peril, but unable to conjecture
its exact nature Mr.. Blackwell, who is
an active and athletic man, rushed
rapidly TO their assistance, and arrived
at the spot just in time to discover his
little daughter being borne out into
the bay by an alligator. Comprehend
ing tho scence at once, and nerved tc
almost superhuman effort by the des
perate situation OF his child, the ago
nized father leaped madly into tn,
water in pursuit of the would.be de
stroyer of his daughter, which was thel
some twenty-five or thirty yards from
shore. The water for a distance o
forty or fifty yards out into the ba.,

Marrying Under False Preten ses.

A Judge in a certain county in New
York has recently rendered decision
that commends itself to the notice of
match. making mammas and matrimo-
NAL spectators of both sexes. A man
applied for divorce from his wife on
the ground that he had been deceived
into the belief that she was healthy
woman, and not the very fragile and
neuralgia creature that sho was. Ii was
proven that the reluctant bachelor, for
whom single life had its blessing which
he was 10th to risk upon matrimonial
venture, had been caioled into the belief
by the friends OF the young lady that
she was paragon of virtues and, physi,
cally, model of Greek Venus. When
the doctors bill began to pour in upon
the husband, he saw that he had made
a mistake, and he implored the court TO
grant him dissolution OF the connubial
knot. The bench sympathized with the
applicant for divorce, but instead of
granting formal decree of complete
separation declared that the marriage
was no marriage at all, that MS marriage
is q civil contract under the law, fraud
in either party made the covenant of no
effect. The husband was, therefore,
released absolutely, aud went his way
seeking another mate. Now, while a
decision of this sort is no unusual
thing, its point in this instance, ID
Capt. Bunsby would observe, "lies in
the application on it," 1t is a warning
to both sexes that everything is not
fair in the race for husband or wife.
Ii woman before marriage beguiles q
man into the belief that her checks are
