incident OF Their Honeymoon.

An amusing incident occurred on
board the "Golden State recently, on
its way to Albany, when slight fire
caused considerable commotion among
the passengers. The story is good
ono, and we give il publicity, as il de
monstratcs the true nature Of many in-
dividuals who, claiming to be men, dis
prove their right to the title Mt critical
moments by losing their wits and for
getting all else save their own personal
safety.
II seems that there was newly mar
ried couple on board Of the steamer,
who, by public exhibition Of their
fondness and affection for each other,
even before the boat left the landing,
gave the people TO understand that they
had Just launched in the matrimonial
bark, and were seeking together the
pleasant haven Of connubial lbiss. They
both gloried III the fact Soon after the
accident occurred the lovers disap-
poarcd from the deck. In the cabin
where the lady passengers had been sent
for the purpose Of fastening Iifc-pre-
servers about their bodies, the couple
who had hut u few minutes before Mt
tracted 70 much attention were discoy-
cred The bridegroom had secured II
lifc-saying apparatus and strapped ii
about his own shoulders, and his wife
was clinging 70 him in the agony Of
despair.
Don't desert me now Charlie, the
first day we are married" She piteously
exclaimed; let me 90 with you z
Did Charles gallantly remain by the
side Of his aflectionate spouse and face
the supposed danger like man? Oh,
no, not lie With eyes protruding
from their sockets in extreme fright
and with face which could not have
portrayed greater fear had it, possessor
been condemned To be burned al the
stake, Charles stepped, on rather
wrested himself away froln tic con
iidipg embrace Of his bride, and leaving
hefNo her fate, rushed Oh deck and be-
took himself q canal boat which had
drawn alongside the steamer. Several
observing tile heroic action
Of the bridegroom, volunteered to pilot
the deserted lady u her liege lord.
This was done, and as no affecting signs
0f recognition were noticed between
tie couple, Il y believed the wife had
her faith III the noble qnalitie Of her
husband somewhat shaken by the oe-
cuFrenee.

A Letter That win Live In History

The mind Of a man of principle is
shown 10 the letter from Charles Francis
Adams of Massachusetts to Samuel j..
Tilden. In strong words he protests
against the occupancy of the presidential
Office by Rutherford b. Hayes, who, ne
saws, must forever carry upon his brow
the stamp Of fraud first triumphant ID
American history" Mr.. Adams is not to
be deceived by any pretences that may be
made bv HAYES: for, says he, no subse
ouent action. however meritorious, can
wash awav the letters of that record. "
This is a terrible verdict against Hayes
from one of the most experienced states
men in the country--N Y. Sun.
Charles Francis Adams has written a
letter to Mr. Tilden to express his strong
approval of that gentleman's dignihed and
patriotic conduct during the contest over
the electoral count and since the consum-
nation of the wrong. In the bold, indie
pendent manner which is natural to him,
Mr.. Adams expresses his satisfaction at
the thought that he joined the Democratic
side during the last canvass and has there
fore no responsibility for Rutherford B
Hayes and no alliance with a man who
holds the presidency with the brand Of
fraud upon his brow. In this connection
we should like to put a plain question t,
ex-President WOolsey, of Yale. Tha
gentleman took pains to come forward il
the course OF the presidential campaign
and preside at Republican meeting. Hi
could say nothing against Mr.. Tilden, save
that he should not be elected because he
seemed too eager to get the office for which
he was a candidate. This censure from
such source was much quoted, and haC
some weight among scholars in politics
Since the election Mr.. Hayes has beer
counted into the chief magistracy by
fraud. That fraud has been acknowledged
by his partisans, but was defended .on a
pretense that it was covered by lega
technicality Mr. Hayes was so anxious
for the presidency that he accepted it as
the fruit of that frand. He was so anx
lous for it that he made bargain with
his political opponents to procure their
consent by counting him in. Does it no
strike President Woolsey that Mr.. Hayes
has shown himself more eager for Office
than Mr.. Tildeu, since he has taken IT,,
Office that belonged to Mr. Tilden? Is i
not President Woolsey's duty to say S
and apologize to the latter? Is it not hi
duty at such crisis to say whether he i
reconciled to the elevation, by his aid il
some degree, Of "a person who must for
lever carry on his brow the stamp of fraut
first triumphant in American history"
The opinions of gentleman who was 81
very sensitive about the decencles Of thu
presidential canvass seven or eight months
ago would be of great interest just now

MEDICAL.
Symptoms of a Diseased Live,

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
DAN in the right side, under the edge
of the ribs, increases on pressure;
sometimes the pain is in the left side; the
patient is rarely able to lie on the left
side; sometimes the pain is felt under
the shoulder-blade, and it frequently ex-
tends to the top of the shoulder, and is
sometimes mistaken for a rheumatism in
the arm. The stomach is affected with
loss of appetite and sickness; the bowels
in general are Costive, sometimes alterna-
tive with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy
sensation in the baCI; part. There is
generally considerable loss ofmemory,
accompanied with a painful sensation of
having left undone something which
ought to have been done. A slight, dry
cough is sometimes an attendant. The
patient complains of WEAKNESS and de-
bility he is easily startled, his feet are
cold or burning, and he complains of a
prickly sensation of the skin; his spirits
are low; and although he is satisfied that
exercise would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few ofthem existed,
yet examination ofthe body, after death,
has shown the LIVER to have been ex-
tensively deranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.
DR.. c. McLANE's LIVER PILLS, IN
CASES OF AGUE AND FEVER, when taken
with Quinine, are productive of the
most happy results. No better cathartic
can be used, preparatory to, or after
taking Quinine. We would advise all
who are afflicted with this disease TO
give them FAIR TRIAL.
For all Bilious arrangements, and as
a simple purgative, they are unequaled.

A Leak that Ought to be Stopped:

A few DAYS since Ia secondhand book
seller in Washington called at the agrlcul-
tural department and proposed to furnish
two hundred copies of the annual report of
that department for l874-75, at the ex-
ceedingly low price of fifteen cents each.
The book cost the government fifty FIVE
cents. On inquiry it was ascertained that
the dealer had purchased them of men,
Der of congress, who had procured them
free of charge, of course, for the use of
his constituents" The thrifty member
had probably sold them for eight or ten
cents volume, which allowed the dealer
a handsome profit at fifteen. This is by no
means rare occurrence, thought is very
seldom that any book merchant has
sufficient impotence to try to sell public
documents to the very department that is
sued them. At every book stall in st.
Louis literature of this kind may be bought
at about the cost of waste paper, and in
very many cases it may be had for the
asking. All OF which goes to prove, what we
nave frequently asserted, that the govern
ment printing Office is swindle upon the
taxpayers, and ought long since to have
been either reduced to proper limits, or
or abolished altogether. That there are
some congressional and department reports
which ought to be published for the benc-
fit of the people, we do not deny; but the
larger proportion of them are not wort b
putting in writing, much less in print
The demand for the best Of them is ex
ceedingly small, and with few exceptions
they are read by nobody except the proof
readers. When book which cost the
government fifty FIVE cents to print anC
bind-saying nothing of the cost of col
lecting and preparing the matter-fnds nc
buyers at fifteen cents. it is evident tina
the public document mill should take I
long resting-spell, and when started agair
be conducted on entirely difference princi
pies, But the trivial of the franking priv
ilege-which it is seemingly impossible tC
permanently kill-will probably keep thai
mill grinding 1t furnishes a cheap
method of electioneering, and the farmer
who gets bulky book from his member
of congress, and feels fi&ttered thereby
even though he uses it to kindle fires, sci
dom thinks that he has to help pay for it
We shall never believe any of the econo
mical professions of congress until the pub
lie printing is brought within the bounds Of
absolute necessity, and kept there.-S
