A nTntrtmoniaI iluir.

The husband WHO i IN trouble, Oh in
vowed in difficulties, should tell his wife
all about it at once. Ten to one her inven-
ton will solve the difficulty sooner than all
the husbands logic. The wit of women
has been praised, but her instincts are
quicker and keener than her ieason. She
is too commonly adjudged as verdant in all
but purely womanish affsirs. No phi loso-
phical student Of the sex thus judges th m.
Their intentions, or insights are very sub
tie, and If they cannot see d cat in the
meat, there is no cat there. In cou1seling
a man to tell his wife his troubles, we
cy6srs.s &c tsr.L,e- end adyi-e him tn keen
none of his affairs secret from her.
Many home has been happily saved and
many fortune retrived, by mans full con-
fidence in his 'better half" Woman is far
more seer and prophet than man, if she
has fair chance. AS general rule wives
oonfide the minutest of their affairs
to their husbands, having no in
Movements to screen from them
Why not reciprocate, if but for the
pleasure of meeting confidence with conf
dence. We are certain that no man sue
ceeds so well in the world as he who, taking
a partner for life, makes her the partner of
all his purposes and hopes.
What is wrong of his impulses or judg-
ment, she will check, and set right with her
almost universally right instincts. "Help-
meet" was no insignificant title, as applied
to mans companion. She is helpmeet to
him in every darkness, difficulty, and sor-
row of life. And what she most Graves,
and most deserves, is confidence without
this, love is never free from shadow.-Do-

Yesterday it appeared that Tilden could
count 1884, electoral votes, with not sufi-

doubtful States to determine which, if any,
had gone for him. The sure vote for
Hayes vastly, leaving 2S votes, from the
States CT California, (D; Florida, az; Or

showed conclusively that wi ''e
none of the ''sure" States had been
lost, (though Wisconsin, New Hamp-
shire, Nevada, and one or two others
had been claimed as doubtful by the
Democrats,) California and Oregon had
gone for Hayes, giving him 167 votes and
that as the three Southern Republican
SUates-Solth Carolina, Florida, and Lou
isiapa-had not been swept away by the Ku

simply failed to make Solid South. From

Bottleberry will never dive into creek
to save another woman from drowning. He
saw red haired girl named Sparks tumble
in the other day off boat, and he instantly
plunged in after her, caught her by her
dress and swan to the shore with her. AS
soon as they were on dry land Miss Sparks
gave a hysterical scream, flung her arms
around Bottlebury's neck and tainted. Just
then the father came up, with the rest of
the family, and perceiving the situation, he
dashed up to Bottlebury, grasped his hand
and said, "Take her, my boy; take her It
is hard to give her up; it wrenches her old
fathers heart; but she is yours. Bless you,
my children-bless you !" Then Mrs.
Sparks cried, and she hoped Harriet would
be happy. The little sparks manifested
their emotion by climbing up his legs and
pulling at his coat tails. Then Barriet

New YORK Disappearances.


A well known druggist, named Bernard
81. Remold, who keeps store in Third ave-
nue., disappeared from home on Saturday
evening, October 21st. He said he was go.
ing out to take walk, and would soon be
back, but that is the last that was seen Of
him alive On Sunday his dead body was
found floating at the Narrows. 1t was LAX
en- to the Brooklyn Morgue, where it has
been identified by watch which was found
in his pocket and the marriage ring on his
finger. There was no money in his pockets,
though he had considerable amount on
his person when he went from home. The
base of his skull was fractured, and the
supposition is that he was robbed killed
and then thrown into the river. But why
did the robbers leave the tell tale watch ?
1t will be remembered that it was on that
same evening Philip Ottaman, the wealthy
butcher, disappeared; ! but also whether there
is any connection between the two cases or
not, is matter Of conjecture. About one
thing, however, there is no conjecture, and
that is, these mysterious dsappearances
are coming to be fearfully frequent; so
