A Boston "SOciety" Item.

The Boston Society prints this piece
of personal intelligence: 1T is but a
short time ago that Boston was in dan
ger of losing one of her leading bellies,
Miss B., of fremont street. This young
lady, noted for her superior intellect
and culture, rare accomplishments and
personal charms, was about to be we'd
ded to young gentleman of the West.
Happily, her better judgment prevailed,
and she resolved to sever an engage
ment which necessitated establishing
her permanent residence in country
distantly removed from her family and
friends, and where, perhaps, she would
not be as highly appreciated as in her
native city. 1t is now understood that
Boston society will continue to enjoy
the refining influence of Miss b., whom
it would surrender only with the great
est reluctance"

Still Loves the Girl Who Poisoned Him.

THE Lancaster Pa.) Examiner con-
tains this curious story: "Some time
ago there was barn burned down in
York County nearly opposite Marietta,
but few miles from the river. The
circumstances of the burning were
very suspicious. The owner, who had
gone to church prior to the burning,
laid the blame upon a young man who
had been paying attentions to his
daughter, and charged him as being
the incendiary. This he easily proved
was false. The barn was heavily in
Sured, and the insurance company in
vestigated the cause of the fire, and
finally proved, through the young man
who was charged with the crime, that
it was the owner who had fired the
building before he went to- church.
Thus the former lost his insurance
money through the efforts of the man
whom he had accused, and the Register
says he laid his plans to be revenged.
Some time afterward the daughter in
vited the young man to call upon her,
which he did-no doubt the attraction
yet being great to him. While there
she gave him some cake, of which he
ate heartily. On his way home he felt
very unwell, and when he arrived at
home was taken with severe pains in
his stomach. 1t was afterward found
that the cake had been poisoned; he
had taken too much Of it, which
acted as an emetic, and the whole was
cast up, or he no doubt would have died.
No legal action was taken against the
young girl by him, and to-day that
young man is as attentive to her as if
he had never been served by her with a
dose of poison. Of course, the girl
was urged to the act by her father; but
she was cognizant of what the cake
contained

are mine, l believe; then oblige me by
your glances to me-" The
bride was young woman of spirit,
and, resenting the tone in which the
reprimand was made, retorted: "Ah.
if you are jealous already, |
am likely to lead a pleasant life with
your The jealous bridegroom made
an angry reply, and then the other
bridegroom must needs put his oar in.
"Pah! Monsieur, why should you make
such fuss because mademoiselle
chooses to favor me with glance?"
Thereat his bride turned savagely upon
him and exclaimed: "Ha, monsieur,
it would seem, then, that you like to
have ladies make eyes at you! Now |
know what to expect from you; but you
might at least have had the decency to
keep this proof of your faithlessness CON
cealed from me here And with this
fierce thrust she burst into tears. In
vain the Mayor attempted to pacify both
parties. The bridegrooms stormed at
each other, and the brides, between
their hysterical sobs, mutually accused
each other of perfdy. What was to be
done? At last the Mayor, losing tenn
per, cried out: cam | to proceed with
this ceremony, or am | not?' The
two brides with one accord screamed
MOI Perhaps" said the Mayor,
whose wrath had again cooled down,
"you could arrange matters between
yourselves if you were left alone. The
clerk will showyou to my private room.
| will give you half an hour" At the
expiration of that time the parties were
summoned to appear again before the
Mayor. Have you settled your diff
erences?" he asked. Eyes, Monsieur
lie Maire," exclaimed both bridegrooms
at once. "Oh, then l may proceed
with the ceremony" eyes, Monsieur
lie Marie; but-but-" Well, what is
it?n eve have effected change,
Monsieur lie Marie" "a change!
What do you mean?n "A change of
brides, Monsieur lie Maire.n And so it
was-the Jealous bridegroom had taken
the jealous bride, and the young lady
of tickle chances had taken the gentle
man who liked ladies to "make eyes"
at him. The astonished Mayor looked
at them in silent amazement for a
moment or two, but they met his look
unabashed, so he shrugged his Shout
ders and said "Well, if you are sat
isfied, it is no business of mine. | will
proceed with the ceremony" And
married they were.

Cultivation Of the SunfiOwer as Pro-
lection Against Malaria.

On this subjective have received from
a correspondent a communication
which, containing no facts that are not
already familiar to the public, we deem
unnecessary to publish. ...
However, for the benefit of those per-
sons who may still be cultivating the
unsightly sunfiower under the impress
sion that it really possesses some hid
den power to ward off malaria, we may
state that this notion was long ago eX-
ploded, and now ranks only with such
remedial absurdities as the carving
about in the pockets of horse-chestnuts
and potatoes as prophylactics of rheu-
matism, or the equally ludicrous one of
basking in light that streams through
blue glass"
Notwithstanding the romance at
tached to its origin by mythology, it is
about as coarse, ugly and useless a
plant as we know. With nothing about
it to please the eye, with no medicinal
qualities whatever to give it value, the
only possible economic use to which it
can be put is that of cultivation for the
sake of an oil that its seeds yield. But
whatever value it might have for this
purpose is more than counterbalanced
by the positive injury it does to the
soil, for it is well known as an insatia-
bic consumer of potash, and would
rapidly exhaust any land of this al
ready too scarce salt, and hence rem
der it unproductive. The proper place,
then, for this unpromising exotic is
where we chiefly find 1.-THE gardens
of rural districts, in which it is often
planted to hide objects that have the
misfortune to be still more unsightlv.
As regards the eucalyptus, which our
correspondent incidentally mentions,
we believe it is not generally held by
scientists that the mere presence of the
growing tree in any district will pre-
vent the occurrence of malaria, but that
its value as remedial agent depends
on the presence in its leaves and bark
of resin and alkaloid lin considera-
BILE quantity that have been found to
possess all the febrifuge qualities of
cinchona and its derivatives. Scientific

Loves Vagaries.

Two wedding couples presented
themselves at the Mayoralty in a suburb
of Paris to carry out the civil portion
of their marriage contract. They
ranged themselves on opposite sides Of
the Mayors official throne, and faced
one another The Mayor was asking
a question of one of the bridegrooms,
whose attention was thus distracted
from his bride. On turning around to
look at her when he had answered the
question, he caught her making
. sleeps eyes, at the bridegroom OPP
posite. Being of a jealous temper
ment, he laid his hand roughly on her
arm, and said, Sharply: Mademoiselle,

When Tom Edison (the wonder

"A well-dressed boy, about ten years
old, stood on the walk in front of the
City Hall, the other day, eating an APP
pie. A ragged urchin, having a rag
bag over his shoulder, stood close by
and looked as if he would give his hat
and boots for one bite of the fruit. An
dttache of the City Hall noted the situa-
ton and was greatly pleased to see the
lad suddenly hand over the apple to the
envious rag-picker. That's a good
boy-that was real charityr exclaimed
the gentleman, as he patted the boy on
the head. Yes, Ifelt sorry for him, -

Bijah's Garden.

The first peep O. day on these glori-
Gus mornings finds Bijah crawling
through the fence surrounding his little
farm, which he has named 'The An
gels Bower" A sign on the station
house side reads:
CAwsHUN!
All cows are notyfde to keep off these
lands, or will be sued cording to law. Also,
boys not allowed to climb the trease or tease
the ves,,.bles. P. S. No bluded stock for
sail. B. JOY.
Yesterday morning, after month S
hard work at agriculture, Bijah found
that he had put in the following:
qt sage tea, bu beans,
| ID figs, ! chrome,
Jewsharp, peck potatoes,
20 lbs hay, Some old rye,
| lemon, l IL Rio coffee.
Of course, he is only making a COM
mencement. 1t will take year or two
before the chrome and sage tea get
firmly rooted, and one can't expect over
half yield of lemons and coffee the
first year. The early hackman, rushing
past 1.-the Bower" yesterday morning,
saw Bijah putting Jumps of sugar on a
hill to coax his hay to come up, and
heard him gleefully singing:
Oh! who would be sailor man,
And sail upon the sea-
Oh who would drive four horse stage,
Or would lawyer be.
Oh who would sit in Congress,
Or any Office hold
Instead of tearing up the soil
