MATED, BUT NOT MARRIED fir

MATED, BUT NOT MARRIED. The firm
name is Hull & johnson, and the busi-
ness of life is to be conducted in ac-
cordance with the following coniugal
contract: "We regard ourselves as
IN every sense of the word equal to
partners, promising to strive to treat
each other, under all circumstances, as
becomes such. We promise that we
will not try in any other way than by
advice or persuasion to control the ac-
tion of each other. Believing THAT
neither church nor state have" those
who are fired by great social principles
are sometimes above little matters of
syntax) "any business with our affairs,
we propose to live our own lives without
interference to either, farther than, if
necessary, to give security to the
commonwealth of Massachusetts,, that
our children should we be blessed with
offspring shall be, at least, as well
cared for as the majority of those
born in legal wedlock. We further
contract that when mutual love shall
no longer justify our conjugal union,
we shall part, giving the state as lit
tie trouble in our parting as we have
in coming together" The Boston
Herald, in publishing the contract,
states that the father of the bride is
an avowed believer in free love, and
that his daughter and copartner, who
is clerk in leather store, produced
the document one night last week, and
called for his criticism. The father ex-
pressed his approval, and the paper
was signed.

A FEARFUL DEATH.-After very many
years, says the Indian Standard, there
was an execution at Lucknow on Tues
day, the Doth ult. A Moulvie of some
repute paid the last penalty of the
law. He was convicted of a most
brutal act of murder, albeit not COM
mitted with his own hands, but through
means the most revolving to humanity,
ane sentenced to DEATH. He kept
small school, and one Of the boys, who
had been absent for two or three days,
on coming to school was locked up by
him in small room. In this room a
snake had been for some days previ-
ousIy, but was not killed. A little
while after the boys incarceration he
called out "a snake! a snake!" asd
mplored the Moulvie to open the door.
"Ohw he said, "open the door and sec
for yourseIf-for Mahommed Russoos
sake, open the door," The Moulvie
would do nothing Of the kind At
last the poor boy was bitten In several
places on the ankle, and he called out:
ooh! now I have been bitten, open
the door," The Moulvie was inexora-
ble-he would not open the door.
About midday the father of the boy
came to the school and inquired why
he had not come home to his usual
meal. The Muulvie said: Il have con-
fined him for his absence" "Wel," J"
said the father, "release him now"
The door was then opened, and the
corpse a lad twelve years old, the only
child of his parents, was the sad and
shocking sight which presented itself
to their Mortified gaze, with the snake
lying coiled near his neck.

PERILS OF THE DEEP.
SAN FRANCISCO, January 26tl

| n
The Schooner John Bright arrived
this evening from Tahiti, having on
board Captain Stewart, of the British
ship Ada Iredale, and three apprentice
boys, William Lightfoot, William
Denwood and Frederick Joyce The
captain reports that the ship left Ar
drossan, Scotland, on June Goth, with
coal for this port On October 18th,
latitude Is degrees south, longitude
l08 degrees west, fire was discov.
cred in the lower hold. Every effort
was made to extinguish it, but it was
soon evident that the whole body of
the coal was ignited: The crew dug
down into the cargo until the gas and
heat drove them from the hold. Wa
ter was pumped down. but to no ef-
feet. In thirty six hours from the
time the fire was discovered the gas
generated, exploded and blew up the
deck. Finding further attempts to
save the ship useless, the boats, three
in number, were lowered, and the
ships company, consisting of the cap
tain, two mates, carpenter, cook,
steward, five boys and twelve able
seamen entered them. The captain
took with him the ships papers, nau-
tical, charts and such an amount of
bread and water as could be slowed,
and shaped a course for the Galapa,
gos Islands, about twelve hundred
miles distant. Soon after leaving the
ship the captains boat capsized in a
heavy sea, and all the instruments
were lost except sextant, and also
the provisions on board. The boat
was righted again and the men
picked up. Tn few days, finding the
wind and currents setting him back,
the captain abandoned the design of
reaching the Galapagos and steered
for the Marquesas Islanas, 2,409 miles
distant. On the third of November
one of the boats capsized, and the car
pentcr, William Denver, was drowned.
The rest of the crew were taken on
board The other boats. All the food
and water in the capsized boats was
lost, and from that time until the
ninth of November, when they reached
Island Domihick, of the Marquesas
group, all hands were restricted to
three winc-glasses of water per day,
and throughout the time in the boats
to two biscuits per day. The wealth
er was very rough portions Of the
time, and the men suffered severely
At night the boats were made fast to
each other aud kept together. The
schooner John Bright was found at
Marquesas, and all hands took pas
sage in her for Tahiti, arriving there
December 18th. Here the captain
paid off the officers and crew in bills
on England and discharged them, cx-
cept the apprentice boys, two OF
whom deserted. The others, with the
captain, left Tahiti December Goth
The mates, cook and steward and
and eight seamen shipped at Tahiti Oh
the New Bedford whale Coral. The
rest sought other vessels. The Ada
IIredale was an iron ship, and, owing
to delay in her arrival, had beer

led to arrive few days ago. The

ing of the electoral commission, ito

Ten minutes later argument was be-
gun by Senator Mcdonald who sup.
ported the objections. to. the. Hayes,

fcrred to- previous congressional ac-
ton and laws, to show that a return
ing board had no pow.erIt to look into
irregularities at elections, unless a
proper foundation is laid by state
ment of supervisors of registration,
or commissioners Of election, br other
proper afiidavits.' In the election of
1872, the vote of Louisiana had been
rejected, because the returning board
had not complied with the law and
they now proposed to show that the
law had not been complied with in
the present case. A,popular majority
had been returned in one way and
that majority had been reversed by
this board. Through actual fraud
they had thrown aside returns sent
them by proper officers and taken re-
ports of supervisors. in their, place.
But even this they did not follow at
all times. The people Of GO polls had
been disffanchised. 81 g'ii 3tfaw q.
Thurman asked how many of these
returns had been accompanied by
protests.
Mcdonald replied not one. The
two houses of congress had already
taken steps to inquire i'm to the,leghl-
ity of the election in Louisiana, and
he contended that the commission pbs-
sessing the powers of the two houses,
had the highland it was their duty to
consider theinfofmation in possess
sion of the two houses. Their duties
were judicial, not merely clerical, and
he coninred them to carefully weigh
the evidence in possession of the two
honses, for which they were acting!
