an UNXEIRD.OF EVENT.

II was a fine Oourishing village, in
the Swabian low lands, to. which the
father Of our heroine had retired ma
ny years before, and where he occu-
pied himself with the farming of his
estates. lie was we'll educated and
even accomplished man, wrote poetry
and leading articles in the weekly pa

where she had Leen born and bred -
Although she was quite fitted intel

her whole heart and soul was in her
farm, her hemp and potato fields, her
stately farm yard, and her gardens,
in which she grew the finest veget&-

for the winter store, and always pro-
Iuced lettuce a fortnight before Mrs.

such a fresh and living spirit that it

not all that she ought to be; aud tie
Mayors Mathilda and Paulina, the
Wears daughter from the neishbor-
ing town, often talked very seriously
about Sophy's want Of cultivation.-
She had not read any Of ScAiIer's
works, and mad scarcely SO much as
heard Of Goethe, although they We're
in her fathers library and when Ma
tilda wanted to lend her FREDERICK
Bremer's last work, she said, We'll

do during the day that | don't care to
read in the evenings, besldes.' Even
her mother, though she could scarce
Iy boast Of very classical education
herself, was troubled about this total
Indifference to her mental improve
ment on account Of which Sorhy was
so much behind the demands of the
age, and thought it would be
we'll to send the girl for a year to
Stuttgsrd. But her father saw this
wild rose unfold itself, and climb un-
restrained round its home with ncom-
prehensible Indifference; and the
chldlike freshness Of the girl, who
was at the same :ime an obeuient and
diligont child, was the joy Of his heart
how feeding the birds, now com

neighbor's, whose mother were out in
the fields, or sporting with them on
the village green, while cousin Clara
was laborously practicing duets with
the school master, or reading novels,
with sundry yawns and sketches,
Clara, the squire's neice, had been
early left an orphan, and found a
home under his roof. She had a full
fine figure, and fairy hair and com

than Sopby, was much more cuItiva-

lectures on literature, of which she
still had uncertain underlined recollec-

worked samplers and caricatured flow
ers and in society, when she was not
exactly able to join in the conversa-
ton, she at any rate gave herself airs
that looked as though she knew much
better than any one else, and did not
care to give others the benefit of her
superior wisdom, SO that all the world
thought it quite natural that the
young medical man who had lately
settled in tho nearest market town
and had been engaged as family doc
tor by the squire, should pay particu-
lar attention to Clara, more especially
as she was supposed to be an heiress.

known, expressly paid court to her

member Of the household received
such a thorough and heightened
course Of treatment.
A splinter, which Clara had got in
to her finger, required a weeks attcn-

obliged to have a wart on her nose

Mr.. CubbIns and The wood.

OOOPkk AVENUE september Ia loios
To the RditOr Of the Ledger:
| thought was doing my full part in
calling the attention Of the committees
to the purifying power of fire for disin-
fecting the city. But when the heads Of
committees became satisfied Of this fact,
and learning also that the farmers and
others we're willing to make contribu-
tions Of wood for the fires. was appoint
ed to carry out this object.
Twas told that there could not be one
cent spared for the wood, except to hall
it from the depot, as the sick, the camp,
the doctors, etc., were consuming all
their resources.
nevertheless started out to do the
best could and in doing so met with
many hindrances-frst, for posters to
send along the lines, and to wait for an.
sWers from railroad agents, etc. And
when the wood is hauled ii is a job to get
men to load it on the cars for nothing.
And now comes sumner; Messrs
Conn, Prestidge and Willis are on the
committee for the purpose Of soliciting
wood for the destitute. Many of the
farmers say that they don't object to
send wood to the sick and those that
cant leave, but they say that no wood
can be sent as long as there is an able
bodied loafer hanging around your city
getting sustensnee. This will interiors
with the wool contributions, unless it i
removed. t
To make these contributions lively an
efficient there ought to be a separat
worker on each line of road and river
soliciting subscriptions and seeing th
wood put on the cars and boats, for thi
work is too much for one man TO de-
; And for this work each one ought t
have a good horse under him.
As for myself have been trying
! help the city all knew how, and al
, only sorry that the committees did ne
. 20 into this good work before. Anyhoy
I am willing to offer up this poor life

SHINING MARKS.

That death loves a shining mark,
was never more strikngly verified |
than IN the reports which reached |
the public yesterday morning Of the
departure Of three noble souls. The
first that may be named is Ed. R.
T. Worsham, whose genial face was
familiar to all our people. When
the fever first made its appearance,
with prudent foresight, he removed
his venerable mother and his sister
toa place of fsafety, and then return
ing to the city, entered upon the
work of relieving the distress which
existed on all sides. AS acting
treasurer of the Masonic relief
board, he visited the sick and buried
the dead, bnt did not confne his
deeds Of charity wholly to members
of the fraternity, wherever there
was distress to be relieved he was
willing TO go at any hour. Some
two weeks ago he was taken down
with a slight attack Of the fever
from which he recovered, but enter
ing again upon his labors in wax
and enfeebled condition, brought on
arelapse from which it was impossi.
ble for him to rally, and he breathed
his last at half past 4 o'clock Sun
day morning. The second was Maj.
VIM. Willis, a man of stern will,
but a heart as easily moved by dis
tress as that of a maid. When the
fever appeared, although urged t.
leave the city by his friends, hi
viewed the situation as a phiSan.

I'll stricken down by the disease
which ended his earthly career a
an early hour yesterday morning
About the same hour, the nobl
spirit of John G. Lonsdalc, jr
treasurer of the Citizens Relic
Committee, took its flight. Lik
WorSham and Willis, he gave hi
life for mankind, and with then
has earned a martyrs crown.
