than not to have her at all. Her ancient
fame could not, in the course Of nature,
live great many years, and as he had
no absurd children to come fooling
about with writs and disagreeable things
of that nature inquiring about his sanity,
it was tolerably easy thineto do.
She gave him the encouragement he
needed, and sure enough, in less than q
week he had made will giving her
every thing after his death, and married
her.
Patience and honest endeavor always
meet with q proper reward. This took
place four years ago. On the first day
Of December last the death Of the good
old man was chronicled in the city pa
pers. Barbara had made him good
wife, and he had made her good hus-
band, and she followed him to the tomb,
with respect for his memory, to say the
least. And then wiping the proper
tears from her eyes she promptly tele-
graphed Gustavc, who landed here q
week ago last Sunday, in the steamer
Nevada, and was met by Barbara, who
took him to her house, where the next
day they were married, and he now
smokes his meerchaum in the chair once
occupied by another, and is isst as hap
py as the day is long. rU IS SIR.
And so from the nettle danger she
plucked the flower safety, and per-
severance was rewarded. She will live
long and prosper.

How q German Girl Managed.

Sic was German girl, Prussian,
and her name was originally Barbara
Finkelstein. She was the daughter OF
an intensely respectable, but also in
tensely poor family of farmers, who had
every thing but means. As for herself,
all Germania couldn't show a piece OF
femininity which could compete with
her in point of beauty, and very few in
intellectual endowments.
On the next farm to that of the Fin
kelsteins, resided young man named
M1arkscheffel. Young men always do ex-
list in the neighborhood of young wom-
en-, which accounts for the vast amount
of trouble there is in the world. Now,
Markscheffel, Gustave, being a very
nice young man, what was more natur-
al than that he should fall violently in
love with the fair Barbara And what
was more natural than the Markscheffels,
Sr., being in debt and very poor, should
desire their son to marry his rich cous-
in, and what more natural than that the
Finkelsteins, being poor, should desire
Barbara to marry a wealthy young man
from the nearest village, who was dying
to take her without dollar? i -
Whether natural or not this was the
situation, and consequently the unhap-
by couple had all sorts of trouble man
ufactured for them. They were not al
lowed to see each other, and were tor
tured and abused in all sorts of ways.
Finally, one day, the fiery Barbara
declared she wouldn't, endure it any
longer, and proposed to Gustave an inn
mediate elopement to America, in which
land money is supposed to be picked up
anywhere and by every body. Nothing
would have suited Gustaye better, but,
unfortunately, he couldn' t possibly leave
his old mother, who had shown him con-
sideration, and there were other reasons
why he could not leave his home, even
for the alluring prospect held out by
America. q, ts 1aalaa nsllh ssli g /,
But barbara determined to go, at all
hazards. She had an idea that in the
New World she could better the condi-
ton of things, and that in time Gustsye
could join her, and then. all would be
well. Her parents were willing she
should go, for. she had absolutely re-
fused to wed the man of their choice.
and they were bitterly averse to the I'M
fortunate Gustaye. And So with very
little money and her parents blessing
she sailed for America. j. -
- On her arrival here she found that
money did not grow on every bush, and
the streets were not paved with gold,
but she did get = good situation In the
house OF widower, as housekeeper,

bly, well, and looked forward to the time

ONE of the bloodiest of border duels
took place at Bodie, CAL, . few days
ago between two mining partners,
Braslan and Blair. Both were drunk
and got to quarreling, challenge was
given and accepted, and they began
firing at each other only eight feet apart.
Almost every shot told, the snow about
them was soon crimsoned with their
blood, and finally, after both pistols had
been emptied and others secured, Bras
Ian was MORALLY wounded in the abdo-
men, and the victor was carried fainting
from the field, shot in four places.

BERLIN, Nov. to-The Prussian Diet Was
opened to-day. There was full attendance
nearly all the members being present. Great t
Interest and some anxiety was felt at the
statements which were to be made in q
speech from the throne, which was, on the
whole, favorably received. The royal speech
began by appauiing the ardent and universal
patriotism which was displayed when the at
tempts Of Hopdel and Modelling were made to
assassinate the Emperor. These rnanifesta-
tlons Of loyalty and Of personal affection and
devotion have touched the heart Of the Empe-
ror and hHve drawn hin and his people still
closer together in ties Of mutual interest.
The hope is expressed that the plague Of
Socialism will now be suppressed and van
quished as well by popular feeling as by the
execution Of the neW laws, which are designed
for ths preservation OF the peace Of society
and the security Of life and property.
The Emperor-King then refers to the small
loan that has been necessary to meet the i'm
mediate necessities of the administration, and
10 measures OF additional taxation which will
be necessary to establish the financial eau-
librium. The taxation OF imported bread
stuffs, hides wines, etc, and the establish
Inent Of agricultural banks is proposed and
their advantages pointed out, and also meas
urns for the better regulation and extension
Of tbs railway system are recommended.
