INFANT MURDERERs.-Two of the
most shocking murders ever recorded
in the annals of Alabama, says the
Louisville Commercial, were perpetra-
ted near Syllacauga. Talledaga coun-
ty, on Tuesday last. The youth OF
the boys murdered makes the deeds
almost surpass belief. 1t appears
that the sons of Mr.. Wilkes, resid-
Ing near Syllacauga, were returning
from the village school near by in
company with another boy, whose
name we did not learn, and when
some distance from the school.house,
the boys became involved in a quar-
rel, when the strange boy struck the
elder of the Wilkes boys, lad about
eleven years of age, and fell upon him,
pounding him to death. The younger
Wilkes, about nine years of age, called
to the boy to stop striking his broth
er, as he had already killed him. The
boy paying no attention to the young
Wilkes request, the latter pulled out
his pocket-knife, and, rushing upon
the boy, stabbed him in vital part,
killing him almost instantly. None
IF the boys, it is said, exceed twelve
years of age. This shocking affair
has cast gloom over the entire COM
nunity. The cause of the quarrel
among the boys seems to be involved
n mystery; but the fatal result of the
quarrel is astounding. 1t almost
reezes our blood to contemplate such
! terrible ending to the childish differ
nces of three young boys Perhaps
he world may never know how trivi-
i circumstance resulted in the mur.
er of these two children.

SAILING OVER BURIED NArIoYs.-The
whole channel of the Mediterranean
must be strewcd with human bones.
Carthagenians, Syrians, Egyptians,
Sidonians, Persians, Greek and Ro-
mans-there they lie, side by side, be-
meath the eternal waters, and the mod
ern ship that fetches freight TO Alex
andria sails in its whole course over
buried nations. 1t may be tie corrup-
tion of the dead that now adds bright
ness to the phosphorescence of the
waves. All told me in the East that
a superstition exists on this subject.
which represents the spirits of the de-
parted as lowering, whether on land
or water, over the spots where the ru-
ins of their tabernacles are found: so
that in blowing the Mediterranean we
sail through armies of ghosts more
multitudinous than the waves. These
patent spirits sometimes ride on the
foam and at other times repose in
those delicious little hoIlows which
look like excavated emeralds between
the crests of the waves. 1t is their
union and thronging together, say the
Orientals, that constitute the phos-
phorescence Of the sea; for wherever
there is light the pillows flash with
the luminousness of vanished genera
tions, that concentrate, as it were, the
starlight on their wings.-&. Johns

A DISPATCH from Petrolia, Penn, da-

Yesterday afternoon Lightning
struck a large tank, on the Troutman
farm, containing 10000 barrels of oil.
The tank was destroyed and the buru.

ran down the creek for mile, de.
stroying everything in its course.
Twelve oil wells with the tanks were
destroyed. At the town of Troutman
a hotel, livery stable, billiard room
and several dwelling houses were de-
stroyed. The loss in the town Of
Troutman is estimated at $4,000;

THERE is no worldly gain without
some loss, so there is no worldly loss
without some gain. If thou hast lost
thy wealth, thou hast lost some trouble
with it; if thou art degraded from hon
or, thou art likewise freed from the
stroke of envy; if sickness has blurred
thy beauty, it hath delivered thee
from pride. Set the allowance
against the loss, and thou shalt find
no loss great; he loses little or moth
ing that reserves himself.

HOW He KNEW.

THERE was Sunday school celebra-
L ton within n hundred miles of
Chicago, not long ago, and the minister
made Il speech to the children, in which
be endeavored toy teach the nature of
faith. So he told them the following
story by way of illustration:
In the deepening twilight of sum-
mer's evening pastor called at the
residence of one of bis parishioners, and
found seated in the doorway a little boy,
with hands extended upwards, holding
line
What are you doing here, my little
friend ~ inquired the nlfnister.
Flying my kite ~ was the prompt
reply.
:" Flying your kite ~ exclaimed the
pastor; 6 can see no bite,--you can see
nOne.1
i cannot see it, but know it is
there, for feel it pull
The children were all deeply interest
ed, and the clergyman continued
"Now in few days after this the
mother of the little boy was about to
die, and she said to him:
My son, when am an angel L will
come IL can and be wish you and
shield you from all harm, and watch to
see that you grow up good man. viii
you try to think sometimes shat am
by youu side ?"
And the little boy said he wolld.
Now my dear children" said the
minister, "when that blessed angel
came back from heaven and hovered
over the child, and placed her hand
among the fair golden hair, how did he
know she was there, for he could not
see her z
"Why he felt her pull, of course I"
roared tsse class in unison, and with the
promptness of absolute necessity.
The speaker sat down all of sudden,
and the exercises concluded with the
singing of q hymn.

own resources, and your unpardonable
Ignorance Of your own pecuniary aflhlrs
rendered this an easy matter, for your
faithful agent at once Joined me in the
plot. Time fled on, and saw that my
plans had succeeded even better than
had hoped, for you were completely hap
py. Then, when God gave you this
sweet child, and you had loved 1t ms the
object of your future care and tender re-
gard, knew that you was most perfectly
cured. Richard, my course of treatment
has been somewhat harsh, but trust
that the loving smile of your fond wife,
and the sweet face of your innocent babe,
will speak pardon for what have done "
A moment Richard gazed into the
face of his old friend, and, as full COM
prehension of the affair rested in his
mind, he sank upon his knees and
grasped his preserver by the hand.
"Kindest, best of friends, :" he uttered,
81 cannot speak my thanks in words.
l see it all, see it all, and may Heaven
bless you for what you have done. My
dear wife loves you now, and my child
shall be taught to bless you.
''There,' murmured the old man, as
he put Mary's arms away from his neck,
and raised Richard from his knees,
''let us all thank God for what we enjoy,
and at the same time remember the
simple fact, that there are none more
miserable than they who see nothing on
earth worth living for and loving"
Long years have passed away, and
Richard Bradley and his wife are grown
old but their lives have been made
happy and peaceful, for they have spread
ivy about them on all hands, s,-their
children honor them for their bright ex-
ample, and their neighbors love them
for the good they have done.

what to Teach Your Boys.

TEACH them that true lady may be
i found in calico quite as frequently as
in velvet.
Teach them that a common school
education, with common sense, is better
than college education without it.
Teach them that one good trade well
mastered, is worth dozen beggarly
professions
Teach them that " Honesty is the best
policy"--that tits better to be poor than
to be rich on the profits of crooked
whiskey," etc., and point your precepts
by examples of those who are now suffer-
ing the torments of the doomed.
Teach them to respect their elders and
themselves.
Teach them that, as they expect TO be
men some day, they cannot too soon
learn to protect the weak and helpless.
Teach them by your own example
that smoking, in moderation, though
the least of the vices to which men are
heirs, is disgusting to others and hurtful
to themselves.
Teach them that to wear patched
clothes is no disgrace, but TO wear a
4" black eye' is
