The toadstooI is comparatively Aat,
while the top of the mushroom is arched
to an extreme degree of convexity. In

difference on the upper surface in the
case of the mushroom of recent growth,
the under surface will be found to pre-
sent a clearly developed pinkish hue,
which, however, in older and larger pro
ductions viii assume a deep brown tinge.
Ia the toadst0ol the under surface is
sometimes white, but more frequently
quite black. \ very marked difference

subsisting between the top and stem of
the two plants In the mushroom the
stern is very short, and Of considerable
thickness, whereas that Of the toadstool
Is tall and slender. the entire elevation

miniature parasol The one grand and
obvious mark of distinction, however,
characterizing the toadstool, consists in
brownish-yellow, unwholesome looking
spots plainly observable on the stem of
the poisonous plant, but from which that
ofthe mushroom is wholly free. 1t may
be well to add, that these same brown and
leprous spots will be found, more or less
conspicuou.ly, on the stems ofalmost all,
if not all, poisonous plants and shrubs,
as well as fungi, growing in our fields
and woods, and would appear to have

French Governess the Victim

Pittsburgh Chronicle.
A case of misplaced confidence, in
which Mime. D. Monfort, a French teach
er, from Illinois, was the victim, was
brought to the attention of Chief Harl
zell. 1t appears that the lady had been
living with q clergyman in Illinois, but
being anxious to secure position in an
other family published an advertisement
stating that she would accept situation
AS governess or instructress in the French
language. Some few weeks since she re-
ceived letter from Pittsburgh in re
Spouse to the advertisement The writer
represented himself as well-known cit
zen, in excellent circumstances fnanci-
ally, and exceedingly anxious to secure
travelling companion for his daughters,
with whom he proposed to make Euro
pean and continental tour. He desired
Madame to send on her references, and
also to advise him as to her terms Sew.
eral letters were written by the Pitts
burgher, and finally the lady was re.
quested to come to the city. She re
sponded promptly, first pswning her
watch to secure sufficient money to de-
fray expenses. Upon her arrival in the
city she took room at the st. Clair
Hotel, and then addressed note to her
correspondent, telling him of her arrival.
He put in an appearance on Monday, and
after a somewhat protracted conference
told the lady he would call next day and
take her to his home, some three miles
distant from the city. The engagement
was not kept, but some hours after the
appointed time the teacher received u
note from the man stating that he had
decided not to employ her. He had been
disappointed in her, and as he had fully
made up his mind on that point, it was
less for her to continue the correspond
ence. The victim was almost overwhelm
cd, as she was out of money, and had no
person in the city to whom she could APP
ply for assistance. Finally she visited
Chief Harlzell, who made every effort to
discover the man who had so cruelty de-
ccived Ter. The place where he obtained
his letters was visited, but the proprietor
Of the store could not tell anything about

mission TO have his letters sent there. He
is described us middle aged man, Of
good personal appearance and fine ad-
dress. He did not seem TO be engaged in
business, and his visits to the store were
irregular. Mr.. Max Shamberg heard of
the case, and it is stated that through his
efforts the victim obtained employment

that Secretary Of War CAMERON, who
was elected delegate at large from

heSd of his delegation, with the intention
of pressing Gov. HARrRANFT as long as
there is the slightest chance for HIM.
