Mr.. Cate and his Horse.

Mr.. Alphonse Cate returned to Will
Eamsburgh lately, after an absence OF
five years. His return recalled the story
of his departure. TT en- he was the owner
of large sorrel horse, and the work 1t
had to do told on the poor animal. After
months of i'll treatment, the horse be-
came unfit for work, and Mr.. Cate was
forced to give it to the offal contractor to
be killed. To the offal wharf he led 1t,
belaboring it on the way with a long
stick. The horse was tied, and one OF
the contractors men raised the axe. As
the blow fell on the horses forehead the
animal tore the rope from its fastening,
tottered for moment, and then dashed
through the crowd of idlers direct for
Cate. Terrified, Cate ran up the wharf,
the horse pursuing him to pile OF lrlm-
Der in the ship yard on the opposite side.
The horse was almost on him with out
stretched neck and open jaws, and fire
flashing from his eyes. Cate doubled
about the pile and climbed on its top as
the horse tried to spring after him. The
effort, however, had exhausted the horse,
and it died with its fore feet resting on
the pile.
Cate was so overcome that he had to
be carried down from the lumber. A
few days thereafter he sold out and dis
appeared. When question on his return
Cate shook with terror and begged not
to be reminded of it. "I went away,
he said, "to escape talk don't begin it
now"

The Paris Exhibition. -

Lucy Hopper, in o letter from Paris,
saws: 4 good deal Of anxiety, not loudly
expressed but very evident nevertheless,
is manifested respecting the success OF
the Exhibition of 1878. Not. only has
Germany testified her refusal to take
officially any part therein, but Italy has
not vet signalized any intention of par
ticipating. As to the United States, 1
presume that Congress will indulge more
in speech making respecting it than In
appropriations. As to the French them
selves. they grumble heartily over the
near approach of another Exhibition,
when, as they say, they have made no
particular progress in any form OF art or
industry since the last one, and will have
nothing new to show. Trade is very bad
in Paris just now, the exports having
fallen off greatly, and the usual influx OF
winter visitors having failed to arrive;
House agents, trades people and hotel
keepers all complain that there are neither
Russians nor Americans here this season,
and the prevalence of the yellow placards
that announce FURNISHED apartments
to let :" tell a conclusive tale of the Lack
of inhabitants in the quarters generally
favored by foreigners. The hard times
in the United States and the war cloud
that broods over Russia have kept the
citizens of those great money-spendlng
nations at home, and their loss is severely
felt.

The DYING and the New Year.

The Independent, I'm retrospective
and prophetic mood, says There has
been no great quarrel between Christians,
no great division of believers, no such
remarkable difference or wonderful re-
union as marks the external and ecclesi-
astical history of the Church. 1t has
been year of quiet, of peace, OF grow.
ing harmony; year of the progress OF
that spiritual history which most bless
es the Church, but which does not find
its record in its chronicles. The best
type and illustration of this stronger,
deeper and better movement of Christian
history is to be found in the revival
meetings which have been carried on IN
several of our large cities, and which
have brought together into one body OF
workers believers of every ecclesiastical
name. And nothing more important or
notable has occurred during the year.
It is in the continuation of this work IN
other cities and in the towns and villages
of our country that We look for the re-
Ggious progress Of the new year. =
In our own country the threatening
words which Immediately followed the
disputed election have been withdrawn
or modified, and no one believes that we
are to have Mexicanized republic. The
situation is grave; but our people are
patriotic, and they love their country
more than party. We shall have peace.
When this political riddle is solved we
may also expect the much needed revi-
val of business interests and the restora-
ton of prosperity. We close the year
thankful for its mercies and tr1lstful that
the new year has in store for us the love
and peace of God.

A Brave Girl.

The Pittsburgh GazcHe tells this
story Mr.. Close and family had gone
ont in the afternoon, leaving no one at
the house but girl, who is servant
in the family and whose name, unfortu-
nately, the reporter did not learn. She
also went out fos few minutes, and
when she came back found bury look
ing man standing on the porch. She
asked him what he wanted, and he
answered that it was none OF her bnsl,
ness. She then ordered him away, and
he retorted that he wouldn't go until he
got ready. The girl became frightened,
and slipping in the hall door closed 1t
in the mans face, locked it and put the
key in her pocket. She had been In the
house but minute or two when she
heard a noise up stairs, which she
thought was coal falling from CRATE.
She went up to attend to it, but on
reaching the room door (Which was
standing OPEN from whence the noise
proceeded was astonished and frightened
to see thief rummaging among the
bureau drawers. She retained enough
presence of mind not to cry out, as
ninety-nine women in hundred would
have done, but stepped away cautiously.
Remembering that in another room was
revolver belonging to Mr.. Close, she
went in and got it, and then walked
down into the hall to wait the coming OF
the thief. The latter, perhaps having
heard her, came down also in minute
or two with his hands and pockets full OF
jewelry, and was astonished to find him
self confronted by the brave girl with
the cooked revolver in her hands. She
asked him what he had been doing, and
ordered him to disgorge instantly. He
refused, but the girl, trembling and cry
ing with excitement, yet evidently de-
termined, told him she would tell HIM
three times, and if then he didn't obey
her she would certainly shoot him. The
man again hesitated for few moments,
but before waiting to be told the third
time, concluding that he was in posi-
ton from which escape from the threat
ening revolver and daring girl was I'M
possible, capitulated, and laid down his
plunder, consisting of ladys gold
watch and chain, gold bracelets, ETC., to
the value of 5000. The girl then threw
him the door key and ordered him to de-
part, which he did without loss OF time.

Proverbs for Subscribers.

"a wise son maketh glad father, "
and prompt paying subscriber causeth
an editor to laugh.
"Folly is q Joy that is destitute OF
WISDOM" but delinquent subscriber
causeth suffering in the house OF news
paper maker.
"All the ways of man are clear IN
his own eyes," except the way the delin-
ouent subscriber hath in not paying for
his newspaper. ;,
"Better is a little with righteousness, .
than thousand subscribers who falleth
to pay what they owe.
"a just weight and balance are the
Lords" but that which is due upon
your newspaper is the publishers
thereof.
"Better is dry morsel and quietness
thereof" than long list OF subscribers
who cheateth the printer.
Better is the poor man that walketL
in integrity and payeth his subscription
than the rich man who continually te!leth
thy 'devil " to call again.
Judgments are prepared for scorn-
ers, stripes for the backs of fools, and
everlasting damnation for him who
payeth not for his newspaper.
:'Hope deferred maketh the heart
sick" is proverb sadly realized by the
publisher who sendeNh out bills.
"a righteous man hateth lying,
hence an editor wakes wroth against the
subscriber who promises to call and set
tie on the morrow, yet caleth not to
settle.
cit biteth like serpent and stingeth
like an adder" when the adder gets
through adding up the amounts due
from his subs.- Whitehall Times.

What he Would Do.

Says James Parton : For my part, if
I were twenty years of age, should
strike for the soil. AS soon as [ could
raise two years supply of clothes and
money enough to transport me, L should
60 to a region where nature had provided
for the farmer favorable conditions say
Pennsylvania, New York, Tennessee,
Ohio, Illinois, Missouri, Texas, Iowa ;
and there, about the first of April, L
would search for a good farmer, who,
for the space of two years, would give
me food, lodging and instruction, i'll re-
turn for my hearty and loyal labor. BY
the end Of my two years, I should be
ready, perhaps, for step forward. The
right man is always wanted, always well
come by the time I knew enough, a
good farm would come seeking me, and
1 would go upon it, and earn it, and live
and die upon it,
The Beaufort tribune and Port Royal commercial. [volume] (Beaufort, S.C.) 1877-1879, 1877-01-25

ooh a! John, how can you talk to me
so? Nellie Winchester y
He pressed her suddenly closely to
him and pushed her head down on his
shoulder.
"Look up, little one. Nellie Win
chester is nothing t. me, although ru-
NOR has said so. You are all the world
to me, darling. Am SO to you? Will
you take the ring I bought when. l heard
YOU were coming home, and determined
to secure YOU for my Own as soon as !
saw YOU? Daisy, I have been engaged
to you since [ can remember VIII you
ratify it?
And with all her soul in the kiss she
gave him, Daisy knew her heart was at
rest in John Maurice's love.
That night it was announced in the
Castledean parlor privately, OF course,
that the picnic had been great success.
Colonel Cressington had proposed to
Miss Winchester, and had been accepted,
and Minnie confdentially whispered to
Daisy:
"Wasn't it cunning? for Nell carried
on with John Maurice just to try to
make the colonel piqued, so that lie
would propose. That's the way l mean
to do; don't you?"
And Daisy smiled and blushed, and
stole glance at Johns happy face, and
thought how good everything was.

yanderbilt's Second Marriage.

Commodore Vanderbilt's first wife
died in 1867. During the summer OF
1868 he married Miss Frank Crawford,
who was about thirty years of age, the
commodore then being in his seventy
fifth year. Miss Crawford's father was
a well-to-do planter and merchant, who
came of Virginia family. He moved
to Mobile, Alabama, where Miss Craw-
ford was born. The war made serious
inroads into the Crawford estate, and
shortly after its close Mr.. Crawford died.
Early in 1866 the widow and her daugh-
ter Frank moved to New York. They
became members of the Church of the
Strangers, in Mercer street, OF which
the Rev. DR.. Charles F. Deems is pas
tor. A distant relationship was found to
exist between Mrs. Crawford and the
commodore. Her mother was q Miss
Hand. The mothers were first or Sec
ond cousins. The relationship gave
rise to visiting and intercourse between
the two families, and the commodore be-
came enamored of the daughter.
During the summer of 1868 the COM
modore paid his usual visit to Saratoga.
Miss Frank Crawford was also IN Sara
toga. From what the commodore has
said to acquaintances, it would appear
that he made up his mind to the new
alliance suddenly and brought it about
with the suddenness and determination
which characterized some of his railroad
exploits. The commodore has said that
when he popped the question: Miss
Frank said she would have him II Dr.
Deems could be found to perform the
ceremony. The commodore immediate
ly telegTaphed to New York for DR..
Deems, but the clergyman happened to
be out Of town, and .the commodore
hating as usual to let anybody know
what he was about until his plans were
consrlmmated, decided not to make a
telegraphic search for DR.. Deems. He
and his young bride, without exciting
any curiosity at Saratoga, made rapid
trip over the New York Central railroad
to Canada and were married bya young
WESLEYAN minister in the city of London.
The commodore in speaking of his we'd
ding Journey, afterward said q didn't
want to raise noise in the United
States, so I slipped over to Canada and
had it done in a iiffy, and / guess the
knot was well tied" Mrs. Frank Craw-
ford Vanderbilt has one brother, who IS
in charge of freight department OF the
New York Central.
Mrs. Crawford has formed part OF the
commodore's family since the marriage
of her daughter. 1t is told OF DR..
Deems, that one day dining with the
family he and the commodore fell to
talking with some levity about the recent
marriage. Said DR.. Deems, nodding to
Mrs. Crawford: "Commodore, this is
the lady you ought to have married"
Oh, no." said the commodore, re-
garding his mother-in-law with look OF
satisfaction, eff I had married her,
Frank would have gone off and married
somebody else. Now l have both.

Before Marriage.

Lovers quarrels arise from different
causes sometimes from mere intensity
of affection making undue exactlons, and
at others from causes which, properly
understood and appreciated, would warn
the parties of the impossibility OF their
ever living happily together.
For instance, young man who is en-
gagged finds his affianced very jealous.
Whenever they meet other ladies' IN Sc
ciety. she treats him with great GOODNESS.
This chills his artlor, and makes him dis
contented, SO much so that he is In doubt
about marrying her at all. He has, IN
fact. come to the conclusion that II he be-
lieyed she would treat him after marriage
in the same way she does now he would
never marry her. -,
As general proposition, it may be laid
down that persons will not change essen
tally after marriage. A belief that they
would has been the cause OF countless
unhappy marriages. They will be Just
about the same after as before, and, II
ANYTHING, little more likely to give way
to strong natural procliyities, or peculiar
tiles of temper.
If YOU would not marry young woman,
provided you believe she would continue
to be as she is now, without any very
marked change in her disposition, then
you do a very perilous thing to marry
her at all.
The same rule, on the other hand, ap,,
plies to the young men. Many anu
many q orirl has made shipwreck OF her
happiness for life by marrying young
man in the confidence that after mar
riage she would WELD such an influence
over him as to reform his Wild hap,'s.
She finds her influence diminished fathef
than increased, after they are married, !;
and disappointments, dlsaSreemeh's 'it''
misery necessarily follow.
Marry no one with whom, without any
change Of character, yon are not satished'

DAISY'S COURTSHIP.

The old fashioned kitchen door stood
wide open, and the strong, sweet west
wind poured through the sanded fioored
room, swaying in slow, graceful waves
the blue muslin skirts of Daisy Mays
morning wrapper, as she stood beside the
table arranging pile of stemless flowers
Sia,a shallow glass dish.
~ Indeed, I'll never marry farmer,
>auntie. [ love the country well enough
here at home, where nothing but the
poetry of it falls to me-gathering
flowers, drinking creamy milk, sketching
shady spots, driving whenever I want to,
and always sent luscious things to eat
aud in winter rides, and sleighing, and
plenty of books and my music"
"And John Maurice" Her aunt tackled
the name very tersely at the end of the
long list of attractions : then watched to
see the effect on Daisy's face.
The pretty lips pouted charmingly.
Maurice Oh, Johns good enough,
of course but -
"It's good thing you have got over
your foolish attachment to him, Daisy,
for he's going to be married soon. En-
gagged to one of the prettiest girls you
ever saw-a Miss Winchester, visiting at
Castledean's."
Daisy's eyes grew little darker, and
then she elevated her eyebrows coldly.
"He's engaged, is he? Oh, well, that's
perfectly natural, I am sure / suppose
Miss-Miss Winchester, did you say p
suppose she is decided blonde, and
petite ?"
Daisy didn't say that Maurice had
often sworn that there was no other style
OF beauty for him but Daisy's own.
sob, bless you, no! Miss Winches-
ter is tall, almost as tall as John, and
very stately, and a lovely brunette.
Everybody thinks JohIfa lucky fellow" !"
Daisy rose and took down her garden
hat.
Il dare say he is-only I never could
see what there was about those tall, dark
women to captivate anybody. Auntie,
I'm going over to Minnie Castledean's
awhile-may ?"
Mary watched the petite, graceful fig
ure in the navy blue foulard cambria,
ard white tarletan shade hat, tied over
the clustering, floating crrls, and nodded
her head wisely and smiled serenely.
"You Darlington perfect darling to
come to US. Daisy, I've been just dying
to see you and have you at home again.
We're going to have the most jolly
times this summer, you know. The
house is full, and there is Nellie Win
chester especially want you to know,
and the handsomest young officer on

Cressington; and we've impressed John
Maurice-you remember John. He's
the handsomest fellow-beats the col
onel, l tell you, and .Nellie's just be-
witched after him
And Daisy laughed and assented, and
declared she half remembered John
Maurice, and was dying to see Miss
Winchester, and intended inaugurating
Irritation at once with the military gen
tleman.
Minnie ratified on, as seventeen-year
old-girls have way of doing,
