the peace of family, can disturb the
harmony of neighborhood, can un-
settle the councils OF. cities and hin
der the legislation of nations. He
who tfets IS not the one VINO mends,
who heals, who repairs evils more,
he discourageS, enfeebles and too Of

but for the gloom ard depression of
his company, would do good work
and keep up brave cheer. The effect
upon a sensitive person OF the mere
neighborhood OF a tretter is indescri-
bable. 1t is to the soul what a cold
Ice mist is to the body-more chilling
than the bitterest storm. And
when the tretter is one who is belov-
ed, whose nearnesS Of relation % us
makes his frettlug at the weather
seem ike a personal reproach to Us,
then the misery of it becomes indeed
insupportable. Most men call fret.

FRENCu AND AMERICAN WoMEN.-Ni''
bert Rodes in his book, " The Fren on
at Home" says: The face of the
American woman is more beautiful
than that of any other country. 1t
has delicacy of coloring and feature,
and finesse aud intellectually in ex-
preston but the body supporting the
head, regarded from an artistic and
hygienic point Of view. Is inferior.
For breathing and digeSting, the up
per part is lacking in depth. In a
word, the American is more fragile !;
she is hardly Diana, and the French
is something more, although not the
Hebe of Rubens. The American has
more intellect than her French sisters
but the latter has softnesS where she
has pertness. There is nervous excl
liability aud cleverness IN one, mellow
ness and equality of character in the
other. The forced, brilliant vitality
of woman in America is the subject to
fits of reaction, for nature has its
limit. In the French woman the
mind IL more even and cheerful, and
in the absence of exhaustive aud ir.
regular demands made upon it, the
uniform health is better. In qualities
of purely mental character, the equal
of the American woman cannot per
haps be found in the world but with
all her knowledge and intellectual ac>
tiyity, she lacks that which made the
Greeks what they have been and the
French what they are-organic cult
vation. Entwined in these words are
taste and art. y ri per civilization
though not a purer, shall invest her
with knowledge of these things, and
harmony of character now possess
ed and with it will come, alas that
decadence in morals which always
marches on the heels Of the Beautiful
in every age and in every climate. 1t
is sad that such heavy tribute should
be exacted as the price of an addel
enjoyment, but art is inexorable.

A STRANGE FREAK OF NArURE.-There

A STRANGE FREAK OF NArURE.-There
is quite a curiosity in our neighboring
county of Harrison, says the Carlisle
Ky Mercury. 1t is boy thirteen
years of age without legs and arms.
On the right side of his body instead
of an arm is slight projection about
four inches in length, and on the left
side is another about three inches in
length. Instead of legs he has a sin
gle foot, which has but two toes.
The boys name is Charlie Blair, and
his parents reside at Boyd's Station.
His parents have returned from the
Centennial with him, where he was
the object of much curiosity. He is a
remarkably sprightly and intelligent
boy, and can hop about as fast as an
ordinary person can walk. He does
not require anybody to cut his food,
but does it himself by pressing the
knife between his substitute for an
arm and his chin. He can write by
the pen in the same manner,
and, by the way. writes a good hand.

ing through the swamps of the Peli-

with delight if he should reach the

timidation or frand having been prac-
ticed by the opposite party at any
precinct in the parish, so far as | have
been able to ascertain, after a thor
ough investigation, my self-respect
will not permit me to accept the posi-
ton" Mr.. Long cannot believe the
good of the State or of the National
Republican party can be promoted by
returning as elected candidate so
clearly defeated as himself. This is
queer doctrine Tor the latitude of Lou
lsiana, but Mr.. Long is planter, not
politician, which probably accounts
for his being convinced that very
much of the disturbance that has pre-
vailed throughout the State for sever
al years past is justly attributable TO
the fact that in many parishes men
not elected by the people have been
returned elected and maintained in Of
fee by the power of the government
1t is pity that there were not fewer
politicians and more planters like Nh.

And let them all staggering go;

And in it, toss Rossum, the beau.
Then shape out a couple of dornicks,
Place one at the head and the toe;
And do not fail to scratch on it,

Then take these dozen good fellows
And stand them all round in q row,
And drink out of big-bellied bottle
Farewell to old Rossum, the beau!'"

A PIrEoUs Sr0RY.-Coroner Goddard
at his Office yesterday, held an inquest
on the bodies of the two boys, Edward
and Allen Bailey, who were drowned
while sliding on the pond at Thirty,
eighth and Sycamore streets, West
Philadelphia, on Friday night. The
father of the drowned boys testified
that they we've missed by their moth
er on Friday, but supposing that they
had accompanied him to his place of
business at the stock-yards, no atten-
ton was paid to their absence. 1t
was not until his return in the morn
ing that a search was instituted or
the police Informed. David G. Will
son described his efforts to find the
bodies, which from the fact that the
boys in the neighborhood are in the
habit Of playing upon the pond, and of
Edward and Aliens hats being found
near it, he thought were therein. The
boys clothing became entangIcd in
his hook, and when he drew them out
they were found tightly locked in one
another's arms.-Phad. Times.

HoN. DANIEL WEBSTER, when in life
frequently told the following anec.
dote of old Father Seal, the minister
of his boyhood. 1t was customary
then to wear buckskin breeches in
cold weather. One Sunday morning
in autumn Father Scarf brought his
gowns from the garnet, but the wasps
had taken possession of them during
the summer, and were having nice
time in them. BY dint of effort he
got the intrudtrs out, and dressed for
meeting, but while reading the Script
ures to the congregation, he felt a
dagger of one of the enraged small
wasted fellows, and he jumped about
the pulpit, sIapping his thighs. But
the more he slapped around and
danced, the more they s;ulg. Tie
people thought him crazy, and were
III connection to know what to do
but he explained the matter by say
ing, Brethren, don't be alarmed, the
word of the Lord IS in my mouth, but
the devil is in my breeches."

tof the statesmen of note who -four
lished in those times. In a recent let
ter to friend in Augusta, Georgia,
he said:
at is very true I wrote the lines
send you, and they are the first that
were ever sung to the air, which be-
came famous. I will give you brief
history of the writing and of the man
who inspired them. When | first
went West, in 1926, | was sometime
in selecting a domicil. Why, it is not
necessary for me to state, as the reas-
enable causes of the delay will form a
theme for chapter in the second vol
ume of the Memories of Fifty Years
Finally located in Mississippi and
commenced the practice of law. L
was in the midst of the noblest race of
people | had ever known. Among
these were two equally remarkable
but very unlike. One was a school
master, who was quite old, and who
had been teaching in that neighbor4
hood over forty years. His name was
James Rossum. He was peculiar in
his habits. On Monday morning,
neatly dressed and clearly shaven, he
went to his duties in the old school
house, where two-thirds of his time
had been spent, and assiduously devo-
ted himself to the duties of his voca-
ton until Friday evening.
On the morning of Saturday he ar
rayed himself in his best, ard devoted
the day to visiting the ladies in the
neighborhood. He was a welcome
guest at every house. This habit had
continued SO long that he had the
sobriquet of "Rossum, the Beau" The
others name was Cox, who was roll
licking good fellow, and the best vo- $
calist ever knew. He was in song
what Prentiss was in oratory, and
they were boon companions-both
died young.
Cox was frequently at my office,
and upon one occasion when he was :
there Rossum walked by the door, j
and his age was apparent in his walk.
COX looked at him, and after pause,
.urned to me and remarked in quite a [
ceiling tone, which he could assume tic
pleasure, and his eloquence was indie 81
Poor old Rossun! Some r.

ound dead, when we shall have no :
lie funeral, and all the ladies' will hon.

Soon after he left the Office, and be- -
ng in the humor I seized the idea and j
wrote the following doggerel lines ns
'oon after Cox returned, and hand fiji
d it to him. He got up, walked and u
ummed different airs, until he fell up We
