Toads in Tight Places.

Many instances are reported Of thes
discovery of toads immured in a prison
of solid rock, where they have SEEM
ingly been confined for ages. The.
circumstances relating to such cases
have not, however. been noted by wit
nesses whose account could be accepted
by scientific men as thoroughly conclu-
sive. An instance Of the kind has been
recently recorded in La Nature, which
is regarded by that journal as entirely
authentic: saha Nia
In the building of new chateau in
the Department of Aisne, materials
from the old chateau were used as much
as possible. This building dated from
the end of the seventeenth century.

one side large, moist portion; it SEEM
ed otherwise sound The stone was
sawn to remove the moist exterior (the
moisture was attributed to a flow of
water into the stone of the old building)
and was put in position in a window.
Time went on, and the stone (much to-

dry, but presented villainous contrast
to its surroundings. It was at length
decided to remove and sacrifice it, in
order to find out the cause. On saving
right through the moist part, large,
irregular cavity (about 0.15 m. in all di-
rections) was found in the centre, and in
this cavity an enormous live toad,
which by squatting had escaped the

A Prospective Brides Sad Mistake.

The old proyerb, There is many a
slip tween cup and the hp," receives al
most hourly illustration. The latest
instance in point we have come, across
is an amusing story about young girl
in Milan who, on the eve of her mar
riage, received from a lady friend a
present in the shape of small package,
which, upon opening she found to con-
tain bank notes for several hundred
francs. Rejoiced at this timely gift, and
running over with gratitude to the kind
donor, she lost no time in paying the
latter visit, with the object of thanking
her. The money was exactly what she
wanted. It would enable her to COM
plete the purchase of her trosseau, and
buy number Of those little things
which ladies in the same happy cir
cumstances love to indulge in. So she
called on her friend and fairly over
powered her with thanks. The friend,
amazed at so much gratitude for a
present which she knew to be only a
little book, began to suspect something,
and, going to her desk, discovered that
she had sent the wrong package. The
little book was there still, but the bank
notes were missing. An explanation
followed, the money was exchanged for
the book, and the young bride went
home sadder and poorer woman

CLARKsoN n. POTTER, who was selected
by Speaker Randall for Chairman of
the Pacific Railroads Committee has
declined to serve, solely, as he says, in
a letter to Speaker Randall, because of
his large interests in railroads in Penn
sylvania Of which Col. Thos. a. Scott,
is president. This hethought would be
regarded as uniting him for service on
that committee; otherwise he would
willingly have accepted the position.
His letter of dcelination was sent to the
Speaker, and will be submitted to the
house, which can alone excuse him. It
was very proper thing for Mr.. Potter
to decline on the grounds he gives, and
would have been very improper for him
to serve In view of his interests with
Col. Scott in railways.

Legends Of the Rainbow.

according to popular belief in Ger
many, the extremities of a rainbow al
ways touch streams, whence it draws
water by means of two large golden
dishes. That is why it rains for three
days after the appearance Of a rainbow
because the water must fall again on the
earth. Whoever arrives at the right
moment at the spot where the rainbow
Is drinking, can take possession of the
golden dish, which reflects all the colors
OF the rainbow; but. if nobody is there,
the dishes are again drawn up into the
clouds. Some say that the rainbow AL
ways lets dish fall. This once hap
pened at Reutlingen, in Suabia. It
broke in several pieces, but the finder
received a hundred gulden for it. At
Iublngen, people used to run to the end
OF the RAINBOW, which appeared to be
resting over the Nekar or the Steinach.
to secure the golden dish. Usually it is
considered wrong to sell the dish. which
ought to be kept as an heirloom in the
family, for it brings good luck. A shep-
herd In the Suabian Alps once found
such a dish, and he never afterward lost
a sheep. An unfortunate native of
E"O"ClA, WIZ SOlO Tile treasure at q
high price, was struck dumb on the spot
Small round gold coins, marked with
cross or star, are frequently found in
S,uabla, and the peasants declare that
these were manufactured from the rain
bow dishes by the Romans when they
invaded Germany. In the Black For
est the rainbow uses golden goblet.
which is afterward dropped. A shoe
thrown into a rainbow comes back filled
with gold. The Servians have theory
that passing beneath rainbow changes
the sex.
When a double rainbow is seen, Sua-
ban peasants say that the devil would
like to initiate the rainbow, but he can
not succeed. The Esthonians call the
rainbow the thunder-god's sickle
A theory existed in the Middle Ages
that the rainbow would cease to appear
certain number of years before the
Last Judgment, and Hugo Won Timber,
In an old German poem, mentions forty
years as the prescribed time.

How Economy is Practiced in Holland

The department of state has received
an interesting report on the social and
political condition of the Dutch, from
the minister of the United States to the
Hague. As an illustration of the care
fulness and steadiness Of the Dutch, the
minister says that there has not been q
bank failure in Holland during the last
forty years, and that the paper money
of the banks during that time has always
been equal to gold. In regard to fire in
surance companies, there is no such
thing as a failure on record, and while
the rate of insurance does not exceed
one-half of per cent, the companies
are in the most fourishing condition,
realizing II to 16 per cent.
per annum. First class railroad trave
is only one cent per. mile, and yet
the roads pay good dividends. Pilfer-.
ing officials are scarcely ever heard of.
When they shock the nation by turning
up they are severely punishedfand for
ever disgraced. No free passes are.
printed, and managers and directors
have no power to pass anybody over
the roads free; all must pay the public
rates. Dishonesty of any kind, or fail
ure in business, means public dishonor,
and utterly bars the dishonest from any
future public confidence or liberation.
Four millions Of people live within an
area of 10000 square miles, fact un
precedented in any other country, and
all appear to be happy, prosperous, and
contented. The secret of this prosperity is
in the fact that all live within their
income, and that industry and honesty
are principles SO firmly established that
their violation is looked upon as an out
rage on the national characteristics

THE adventures and spectators, and
the border ruffians, who have been try
ing hard to inaugurate a war between
the United States and Mexico, have as
certained that both the president of the
United States and the president of Mex
leo, oppose any war, and both are work
ing with view to the suppression of the
maraudering along the Rio Grande. 1t
is said the administration at Washing
ton has no sympathy with the move to
capture Sonora and other northern Mex
iran states, and moreover, the admin
istration is hostile to that incipient Sc
cession movement in Sonora, This
sentiment at Washington is not en-
couraging to the jobbers who have been
working up a war feeling along the
border.

A RELENTLESS AVENGER.
A Father Spends Years in Bringing
to Justice the MurdererS Of His Son.

10 JUSTICE Tie MUrUeftFS OF HIS son.
| Louisville Commercial.
William Newland son of Richard
| Newland, an old and well-known far
mer Of Washington county, in 1867,
with his young wife and a child less
than year old, left his home to settle
in Kansas. In his company went Charles
Waller and wife and their son, neigh
bors. When they reached Webster
county, Mo-, Newland, his wife and
child were murdered under circum-
stances that led to the arrest of Charles
Waller and wife, the son having es
capped. Some days after the tragedy
the remains of Newland were found in
the woods, and those of his wife were
discovered in a ravine about six miles
beyond. The remains of the child
were never discovered, but bones were
found which some of the citizens
thought might be those of the child.
Charles Waller was put upon trial for
the murder and was found guilty, and
in 1872 he expiated his crime on the
gallOws. His wife was also tried for
being accessory to the murder and was
sentenced to three years imprisonment
in the Missouri Penitentiary.
Charles Waller was always reticent
about the murder, maintaining his in
nocence stoutly up to short time be-
fore his execution. Then he admitted
that he had gone out hunting with
Newland, and shot him in the woods.
Upon his return he told his son that he
had disposed of Newland, and that they
must dispose of the wife and child to
cover up their tracks. Richard New
land, the father of the murdered man,
determined that the son of Waller
should also be brought to justice. For
five years he has been searching,
through detectives to discover his where
abouts. His search was finally success
full the son being found on a farm up in
Minnesota. He was arrested and taken
to Webster county, Mo-, some time ago,
and on last Thursday the trial took
place, and he confessed to manslaughter
and was sentenced for forty years in
Penitentiary One of the main facts
which led to his conviction was the
Identification of a bedspread and other
articles ! belonging to the murdered
family. These articles were identified
by Mr.: Newland as the property of his
daughter-in-law. The father of the
murdered man has spent large sums of
money in,ferreting out and bringing to
Justice the murderer.

The vote on Congressman EWing's
bill for the repeal OF. the Sd section Of
the resumption act contains some sing
ular features. An analysis of the vote
shows that the entire vote of Maine,
New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode
Island, New Jersey, Delaware, Michi-
gan, California, Minnesota, Oregon, Ne
vada, and Nebraska was against repeal;
while the entire vote ofMaryland, North
Carolina and West Virginia was for re-
peal. All other states were divided;
New York giving the most votes 21-
against repeal; and Pennsylvania giving
the most-15-for repeal. The repub-
licans cast IS votes against and 81 for
repeal; the democrats cast 81 against
and 107 for The democrats were as
four to one in favor of repeal and the
republicans as three to one against.
Wisconsin cast its five republican votes
against and two democratic votes for
for repeal-Gen. Bragg not voting.
Eighty votes for, repeal came from the
southern states, and 48 from the four
states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and
Pennsylvania. All the rest of
the states giving but ten votes
for repeal. The democratic
votes against repeal nearly all came
from New England and New York, and
the republican votes for repeal nearly
all came from Pennsylvania, Indiana
and Illinois. The question cannot be
called sectional, if the vote of the
house Of representatives is any test.

AN infant child of Mr.. Gaddas, of
Amesbury, Mass, was poisoned under
peculiar circumstances last week. 1t
was left in the cradle under the care OF
its two sisters, whose ages were not above
six years, and they endeavored to play
nurse. Having, seen their mother take
from the cupboard vial, they followed
her example, but instead of the castor
oil bottle, took one containing bed-bug
poison, and gave spoonful to the little
one. The mother, who was employed
in the kitchen, heard the child cry, and
entering the room, saw the condition of
things and administered an antidote,
and thus saved it's life.
