4 Remarkable Cat story.

The following is told by the Moberly
(MoD Enterprise UonifOr "One of the
straugest incidents that has ever fallen
under our observation transpred at the
Virginia Ho,el in this city, last night.
Nr. French a member of the Thorne
Dramatic Troupe, playing an engage
ment in this city, was the victim. lie
retired to rest at an carly Eourlast night,
and soon fell into deep slumber. AT
t.r the lapse of an hour or two he was
aroused by a feeling Of oyerpowcring
oopressivencss and sullocatlon, and was
Mortified to find a huge cat was sitting
on lis breast and had its head inserted
in his mouth sucking away his breath.
lie found himself ir an almost exhaust.
ed condition, so much so that he was
unable to shake Of the vampire fiend at
tackinc him. Struggle as he would the
cat only fastened It's claws the deeper in
his chest. and went on at lis horrible
feast. His groans and cries OF agony,
however, fortunately brought some
neiehboring dodgers to his relict, and he
was rescued from his frighttul position.
Even then they were compelled to turn
him ont of bed and roll him over and
over the floor before the cat could be
made to release its hold and abandon It's
purpose.
Mr.. Frcnch's face and chest this morn
inc bear lrightiuI evidences of his terri
bic battle with the monster, and he will
probably hereafter make special inquiry
at his hotels as to the character Of the
cats belonging to the establishment.

THE MoDER ATE DRINKER.-A social
ed moderate drinker was once very an
CRY with a friend who claimed that
safety is alone III total abstinence from
the use of ardent spirits, and who allow
ed his tanatical notions to insnuate that
the moderate driuker himself might
then be beyond self control. ITO make
plain the question who is wrong, said
the temperance man, ''will you quit
just one month not touching drop
during the time? Said the other: "To
satisfy your mind sir, l will, with pleas
ere, though | know myself; | will 90 as
You ask to cure your overwrought
ideas,"
lie kept the promise, but at the end
of the month he came to his friend
with tears in his eyes and thanked him
for saving him from drunkard's grave
Said he: Il never knew before that |
was in any sense a slave TO drink, but
the last month has been the tiercest
battle of my lite. see now l was al
most beyond hope, aud, had the test
come many months later, it would have
been too late for me-. But have kept
the pledge, and by Coils help | will
keep it for liie,' Moderate drinker,

near you are to the rapids, beyond
which there is no returning.

TlsUsT AND BE True.

Look in your brothers eyes, man !!
And bid him read your own
One half the strife OF human life
Is born from guile alone
Deceit creates full half our hates,
And half our loveit slays;
Look in each. other S eyes men
And meet each others gaze !
Pardon your brothers faults, man
And ask that lie forgive
If human sin no mercy win,
No human soul shall live!
No need OF heaven, were none torglv-
en-;
For none could reach its doors
Pardon your brothers faults, man
That he may pardon yours !
Feel for your brothers griefS man
No heart is safe from woe
Though lip and eye may oft deny
The sorrowng weight below.
One gentle vile, one pleasant smile;
MAY sweetest balm impart;
Feel for your brothers griefs man
And you will win his heart
Stand 10y your bother's side, man
When worthy claim he shows;
To him be jast, and yield your trust,
When he his faith bestOws
How plainly wise, with soul and eyes.
True friendship to impart !!
Smile in vour brothers face, man
And you will warm his healt!

4 Night SCENE IN New YoEX.-
Daring the hot weather people could
rot sleep i'll their houses in portions OF
New York, and were obliged to 90 to
the pavement. \ correspondence thus
describes a night scene in that city =:
"Bctore 9 o'clock last night thous-
ands of persons in the Five Points
quarter had gone out into the open
streets to remain until morning. Along
Caxter and the adjacent streets the
inner edges OF the sidewalks were lined
with blankets and bed ticks, upon
which half nude children were sleeping
so close together that it was Impossible
TO step between them. They almost
laid over one another, entirely without
covering, aud in many cases with Gel
lar door, or even the stone fagging
alone for bed. In one place eight
children were asleep On patch OF
wooden pavement, six feet long by
three wide. and babes scarcely SIX
months old, with naked limbs, lay cX-
posed to the sky on pieces Of blankets
thrown over cellar doors.
An hour later it was curious to see
women and girls sitting on the curb
stones, and making ;heir toilet ior the
night by twisting up their hair and
throwing shawl around them. One
after another they laid down in the
open air, beside the children, and re
gardless of the noisy throng that almost
iostled them in passing, to all appear
ance dropped comfortably asleep.
Gradually the noise in the streets died
ont. y bcvy OF young girls, who had
been singing The Star Spangled Ban
ner" and other airs, fell asleep one after
another on a cellar door, and the sounds
Of shouting and laughter ceased.
The men pulled off their boots, and
while some placed beds on the sidewalk
to sleep on, others laid down on the
stones or boards, aud a few braced
themselves up in the corners OF the
doors to act as senunels over the sleep
erS.
$50 they sleep every night said 4
policeman, "aud we don't disturb them
They couldn't stand the heat III doors
it would kill them.

CoNGREssMAN FAULKNEK-Is THIS
CoRRucr!-The Wheeling Evening
Standard says: We are informed that
in recent letters to, and conversations
with his constituents, Congressman
Faulkner has indicated his intention to
make no canvass for re election TO his
present seat in the IIouSe Of RcprcSen-
taliycs. Probably the principal reason
OF such declinaion is founded upon the
proposed presentation OF his name be-
fore the legislature next winter rs a
candidate for Senatorship, and while we
should dislike to see him give up his
seat in the house, on any uncertain
prospect of n seat in the other, the re
tusal to make any contest for his pre-
sent place pending the settlement OF the
senatorial question, is perhaps well
founded. There is 4 not unreasonable
unwillingncss III the popular mind OF the
State, against taking a man from one
important political position for the pur-
pose Of giving them another unless ap-
parrut necessity exist, for such transfer.
What the exact necessity Is in the case
under consideration, We are not now
prepared to state, bat perhaps Mr..
Taulkncr's conclusion to give up his
seat under all existing circumstances, is
a wise one. At any rate it will he ac-
ceptable to a good many aspiEants for
Congressional houors in the second
District.

A nursing baby is given, no matter how

tongue is so parched, that it can scarce

milk to assuage its craving thirst. Try
it yourself, mother, when you have a

when your darling is dying with thirst,

will be in constant use Deny it milk
