a Cultivated Tramp.

From the Virginia (Ncy.) Chronicle.
Alady residing in the vicinity of the
Lady Bryan mine, in SiX-mile Canyon,
while attending to her household duties
last Thursday morning, was addressed
by seedy-looking man who asked for
drink of water. He was evidently a
tramp, yet there was an mir about him
that bespoke gentle breeding. He drank
the cup of water handed him, and look
ing into the house, saw an opened piano.
Apologizing for the liberty, he asked
permission to play. His request was
granted by the somewhat astonished
lady. Seating himself at the piano, and
removing the music book from the rack,
he opened with the overture of Taucre-
di, which he followed with half dozen
gems from grand operas. Without even
pause he changed off into sparkling
airs from The Grand Duchess GiroHe-
Girolfa and other comic operas, finally
winding up with the allegretto of Bee
thoven's symphony in A. He played
for nearly an hour, yet during that time,
the lady of the house, once a music
teacher in this city, sat amazed, and as
she says, "entranced." She endeavored
to lead him into a conversation over his
past history, and asked him why he did
not practice profession for which he
was so eminently fit, but he refused to
speak, and in reply to inquiries merely
said that he was poor and in search of
work. After partaking of good meal,
in payment for which he split afew logs
of wood in the yard, he continued his
way down the canyon.

'GypsieS in Maine.

The Lewistown (Me.) Journal of the
1st inst, says: "a few day since a
procession of teams of the most motley
description passed through our streets.
The incumbents were brown as filberts
and apparently as hard. Beneath
blankets, in spacious carriages, rolled
numerous babes and children, uncon-
scious of the outer world, and vacantly
staring at nothingness. That the gyp-
sy race is not dying out was obvious.
Besides these there was small caval-
cade of horses, ridden by boys, and a
lot of dogs. Just how large the tribe
was, were not able to ascertain, though
we should judge, by the number of
children we saw, that it comprised fifty
at least. Nearly all the horses. as is
usually the case with these tribes, were
fine animals for the gypsies are sharp
er than the cutest Yankee in bar
gain, and hamper themselves with no
cheap stock. Among us they have de-
parted a great deal from, or perhaps
rather improved on, their ancient man
ners and customs. In place of gaudy
dress and jewelry and spangles, they
now dress just the same as the Ameri-
cans of the poorer class. Their life is
still nomadic, however"

The End of the World,

John Boomer, of Lewiston, Maine,
an original Adventist, in no wise dis
couraged by former failures in fixing
dates, now proves to his own satisfaction
and that of quite number of followers,
says the Portland Transcript, that the
world will come to an end on or before
1880. The clark day" in 1850 is the
point from which he ereckens. That was
the sign in the Heavens of which Christ
spoke when he said, "This generation
shall not pass away until all these things
be fulfilled" Mr.. Boomer says that a
generation, in the sense Christ uses the
word, is one hundred years. He assures
o reporter that he shall lose faith IN the
prophecies if there is any failure this
time

at him by Karledours Modelling, doctor Of
philosophy and an enthusiast and habitue
of Soclalistic clubs. The Emperor receiv-
ed about thirty small shot In his face and
head, both arms and back, but he is not
dangerously wounded. Mobeling's door
was forced opened to effect his arrest,
when he fired upon those who entered,
wounding one man. Hc then attempted
suicide, but was secured. 1t required a
strong escort of number of police to pre-
vent the people from killing him.

Anxious About the Emperor.
The physicians attending the Emper-

Berlin. The military authorities are adopt
ing extreme precautionary measures, and
the customary Whtsuntide iurloughs have
not been granted.
Scattering the Commune.
The German government is taking
active measures TO discourage communism.
Arrests are made daily, and wherever dis
loyal sentiments are proved the culprlt Is

Duke Disraeli.
1t is rumored Lord Bcaconsfield is to

The Lancashire cotton mill owners

A Scene in Church

The Carlisle (Ky.) Mercury says that
Mr.. James S. Huff attended the Epis-
copal service last Sunday evening, and,
when called upon for his nickel Offering,
gave himself burnt offering instead.
1t occurred in this wise: James, in re-
spending to the call of the hat, was
fumbling in his vest pocket, and acci-
dentally ignited a sulphur match, which
speedily caught some chloride of potash
in the same receptacle, ana in an instant
his coat, vest and pants were in blaze,
Mr.. Huff is not naturally aquick-moving
man, but themanner in which he got out
of his coat and vest and tugged at his
shirt gave his friends great hope for his
future rapid movements. A pair of cuff
buttons in his vest pocket were com.
pletely melted With that exception,
and badly burnt clothes and hands, Mr.
Huff sustained little injury. The equa'
nimity of the church members was dis
turbed for short time.
