What She Said on the Way Home from the
Lecture.

Yes, think IL was perfectly splendid
I'm sure feel awfully wise,
With my head full of glaciers and icebergs
OF such a ridiculous size;
And the masses of what-do-you-c -call-it?
The dirt that Is ever 80 Old
And came down on the ice to New Jersey
1t must have been horribly cold.
The views, too, weren't they lovely?
Especially Mont Blanc and the Alps;
Though the last ones were perfectly frightful-
Those men with the clubs and the scalps.
Well, maybe they didn't have scalps-
They frightened me all the same;
And that animal-wasnt he horrid?
did-he-say- y-was-his-name?
perfectly dote upon Science
think it's just jolly good fun;
And wish were going on your expe-
Dition, with knapsack and gun.
Mamma says I'm growing strong minded,
And should cut of my hair, and all that
Though eyeglasses would not become me,
Andhow could keep on my hat?
Here's the end of our walk. Goodnight
You may call Wednesday evening, Rob,
And We'll talk of the Glacial Epoch
And the wonderful thingumabob.

A Romance of Zeal Life.

Some thirty-odd years ago young
man and young girl in Sweden united
their lives in matrimony and soon after
migrated to America. Here four chill
dren were born to them and the father
and mother were "gathered home. "
The children were provided with homes,
but the boys were dissatisfied with their
quarters and vanished between two
days. This was the year before Sumter
was fired upon. One lad went to Min
nesota, and the other went South. When
the war commenced each became sol
dier-one in a Minnesota regiment, the
other in the Confederate army. In one
of the fierce battles that took place the
two brothers met and recognized each
other. The meeting was brief, but long
enough for them to Immediately pledge
that when the war was over they would
unite and not again separate. This they
did and settled in East Des Moines,
where both are now residents, and one
of them is a candidate for Office, to be
elected or defeated next Monday. This
sounds considerably like blood-and-
thunder novel in one column, but it's all
true.-Des MOines Register.

THE Modoc Indians, now numbering
fifty-four males and sixty-three females,
are located on a very fertile tract con-
tanning 1000 acres, in the northeast cor
ner of the Shawnee reserve, Indian Ter
ritory. They have engaged energetically
in labor during the past year, and, as a
result, have large and valuable crop on
their farm. The Government has ex-
pended 81, ,SS2 for their schooling for ten
months, which is under the supervision
of the Society of Friends.

PAW PAW, MICH, FRIDAY, APRIL 27 1877

/, little boy then of some 10 years OF
age, was mingling in the crowd full OF
wonder at the marvellous event then
being transacted. And when the vast
multitude rushed through the burying-
ground, down the steep bank, and to the
abrupt precipice at the rivers brink, i
was borne along with the crowd. Then,
at place which has always since borne
the name of Whittlesey point" COM
menced a rapid and sharp search to dis
cover the missing and distracted woman.
Passing along the stream by the bank to
a turn in the river by which the eye
could look some distance down the cur
rent, voice was heard calling aloud,
"There she is see her floating in the
middle of the stream"
A boat put out, and with hook her
body was drawn to the shore, just above
q bridge which then crossed the river into
the village of PAMELA. And, indeed, it
proved to be the body of Mrs. Whittle-
sey. Although she could not have been
in the water fifteen minutes, yet when
drawn to the shore and taken from the
stream she appeared to be dead beyond
the reach of recovery. Physicians were
sent for and every effort made to resus-
citate her, but all in vain. She was
stone dead A butcher named Israel
Whitney was returning from the country
with load of lambs Beholding q null
titude on the bank of the stream, few
feet lower than the bridge, he called out,
"What has hhppenedl What are you
all doing down there?" Some one re-
piled, "Mrs. Whittlesey has drowned
herself. and we are endeavoring to re-
store her to lfe." Endeavoring to
restore her" replied Whitney. "Hold
on, hold on, say; in with her again; /
am afraid she is not quite dead yet
Make sure work of it |" But she was
gone beyond all recovery. And such
was the earthly end of Mrs. Whittlesey
and of her wicked attempt at robbery.
MoRAL.-Sixty-one years have passed
away since the events transpired which
are above narrated. In connection with
many others of a similar nature in later
years, it has led me to see still more
clearly the truthfulness of the scripture
declarations, which L long since en-
braced and proclaimed, that "God judg-
eth in the earth, " as well as hereafter,
and that "though hand join in hand,
the wicked shall not be unpunished
However artfully they may devise evil,
and form plans of escape from penalty,
tLey cannot avoid divine retribution.
Jehovah rules in all worlds, and in every
state of being. Either in the earth, or
the life to come, or in some state of ex-
istence, he will overtake them and in
flict certain and just punishment upon
them.--J NJ. Austin

NEW Y DIRK, May 26.-It is reported from
New Orleans that the Spanish Consul
there notified Governor Nichols that the
Spanish Government would issue in a

of the Ell Cronista state that they have
no doubt that it refers to the condition =
al amnesty referred to in the New York
papers OF some days ago, and that it is
not an unconditional pardon to all
refugees. The report would imply that
the official papers referring to the proc
lamation Will be received In this city in

prominent refugees have ap-
piled here and at Washington for per.
mission to return to their native land
under the provisions or the amnesty.
