BEECHER's ACCUsERs.-Henry Ward
Beecher is as fortunate in having reck-
less enemies as he is happy in the pos
session of devoted friends. 1t is safe to
assume that had it been known a year
and half ago that Mrs. Woodruff was
suing for divorce from her last affinity,
that Mr.. MOulton had involved his firm
in such frauds upon the revenue as COM
PEELED it to pay $4,000 penalty and
forced him to retire from the partner
ship, and that Mr.. Tilton was addicted
to misadventures in sleeping-cars, to
the great confusion of lady travellers,
the conspiracy to defame and black
mair' the Plymouth Pastor las his law
yers called the scandaD would never
have been so far successful as to reach
the courts. What character the princi-
pal witnesses against Mr.. Beecher pos
sessed during the trial disappears as the
truth about them now comes out. The
latest scandal about Mr.. Tilton has
been unwarrantably made public by
the same scandal-mongers who, pretend
ing to be his friends, urged him on in
his prosecution of Beecher. He now
doubtless perceives that such chroni-
clers of filth make no distinction of rep
utations; sex has no consideration
friendship finds no favor, and doubtless
kinship would be disregarded.-

A PATHETIC PICTURE.-George w.
Curtis paints the following pathetic pic
ture, which every one could wish less
true to nature: 81 think of many a sad
eyed woman who seems never to have
smiled, who struggled with hard bands,
through melting heat and pinching
cold, to hold at bay poverty and want,
that hovered like wolves about an ever
increasing flock of children. How il
was scour in the morning, scrub at
night, and scold all day long How
care blurred the window like a cloud
hiding a lovely landscape! How anx.
iety snarled at her heels, dogging hel
like a curl How little she knew oil
cared that bobolinks, drunk with blithe
idleness, tumb bled and sang in the mead
ows below, that the earth was telling
the time of year with flowers in the
woods below. As 1 think of these
things, of the taciturn husband coming
in heavy with sleep, too weary to read
to talk, to think, L do not wonder tina
mad-houses are so richly recruited from
the farm-houses as the statistics show

childs play. Her husband had not
only forbidden Edna to enter his house,
but had commanded his wife to see their
daughter no more. And but for the
fact of an unexpected call from home,
which he, as owner of great possessions,
was compelled to obey, Mrs. Rutherford
would not have dared to bid her daugh-
ter farewell.
Edna's brothers and sisters, with their
wives and children, had entirely cut her
because of her new relation, and it was
a sorry parting when her mother, alone,
among all her many loved ones whom
the sacred ties of affinity and consan-
guinity rendered dear, held her in last
embrace and mingled her tears with
hers in parting too grievous for mother
and daughter to bear.
Aunt Judy alone was fearless. Her
face beamed with quiet pleasure, born
of awakened purpose. The smallest
preliminaries received her particular at
tention, and she could with difficulty
restrain her curiosity when Mrs. Ruth
erford consigned little fawn-skin COW
cred trunk to Edna's keeping, with a
few whispered words which caused the
daughter to blush and reply, 81 will,
mother, and may God bless you"

HOME LIFE A HUNDRED YEARS
AGO.-One hundred years ago not a
pound of coal or cubic foot of illumin-
atiug gas had been burned in the cOun-
try. No iron stoves were used and no
contrivances for economiZing heat were
employed until Dr. Franklin invented
the iron-framed fireplace which still
bears his name. All the cooking and
warming in town and country were
done by the aid of fire kindled on the
brick hearth or in the brick oven. Pine
knots or tallow candles furnished the
light for the long winter nights, and
sanded floors supplied the place of rugs
and carpets. The water used for house
| hold purposes was drawn from deep
wells by the creaking "sweep."
No form of pump was used in this
country, so far as we can learn, until
after the commencement of the present
century. There were no friction
matches in those early days, by the aid
of which a fire could be easily kindled,
and if the fire "went out" upon the
hearth over night, and the finder was
damp so that the spark could not catch,
! the alternative remained of wading
! through the snow mile or so, to bor-
row brand of a neighbOr. Only one
| room in any house was warm unless
some of the family was ill; in all the
| rest the temperature was at zero during
many nights in the winter. The men
and women of a hundred years ago un-
| dressed and went to their beds in a tenn
perature cooler than that of our modern
barns and woodsheds, and they never
! complained.

INTERESTING DISCOVERY.-An i'm
pOrtant discovery, hitherto not men
toned in public, Of numerous well
preserved bones of diluvian animals,
IS reported from Steeten, on the Lam,
in Germany. The cave in which
they were found was accidentally laid
open by the fall of colossal block OF
dolOmite which had closed it water
tight. a dry, soft, dolomite sand, which
filled the cave, had preserved the or
ganiC remnant most beautifully, with
out any incrustation. The bones were
those of the cave lion, larger than the
present African lion, of the cave bear,
and of the cave hyena, the latter of
much more powerful build than the liv-
ing species. There were also remnants
of the horse, the OK, the stag, the rhi-
| nOceros and the elephant, as we'll as of
several smaller animals, which had
been the prey of the lion, the bear and
| the hyena. 1t seems that the elephant
calves had by preference been attacked
and devoured by these diluvian carni-
vOra. So called koproliths, or petrified
| eXcrements, were numerously mixed
with the medley of bones. 1t need
! scarcely be said that the several beasts
of prey did not inhabit the cave to-
! gether, but that similar species of them
used it during successive periods. A
! good selection of the remnants found is
contained in the museum of Wiesbaden

The subjects of pictures in Art Exhi-
bition in Memorial Hall continue to
puzzle the unsOphisticated mind. The
other day a stalwart gentleman planted
himself before Riviere's beautiful pic
ture. He was evidently greatly at
tracted by the figure of the half-nude
sorceress and the drove of her human
swine, and sought eagerly in the cata-
logue for the explanatory title. Find
ing the number, at last, he read with a
puzzled air: "Circe and the Compan-
ions of Ulysses" He looked once more
on the nymph and the swine, read the
title again, and finally drawled, as he
walked away: "Wa'al, that's rayther

In the Oregon Legislature a resolu-
ton, submitting the question of Woman
Suffrage to the people, passed the House
by a majority of seven, but was de-
feated in the Senate by three votes.
The NEW NORTHWEST is cheerful at the
advancement of the cause in Oregon,
as it has good reason to be, since it is
so much the result of its own work.
Eight or ten years ago, it says, such a
resolution might have been tabled in
cOntemptuous silence, or overwhelmed
with scornful ridicle.-NelO Age.

eral obedience is told of q Maryland
congregation. Some years ago. Rev.
Isaac Collins was preaching at Sped
don's church, Neck district, and was
very much annoyed at his congre CATION
turning in their seats to look at every
new arrival. At last he could stand il
no longer, and exclaimed. There is
one special request desire Of this con-
Rregation, and that is, that they will
turn all the seats around so as to face
the door before preach here again /"
His request was attended to, and next
Sunday, when Rev. Mr. Collins walked
up to the pulpit, he looked around al
the backs Of the audience, and was 50
overcome with emotion that he just
took his seat and spoke not one word
on that beautiful Sabbath evening.
