The Life of q Desperate.

A Western journal publishes de-
tailed account uf the criminal adventures
of man who has recently been placed
on trial for murder. His desperate deeds
extend over many years, and several States
have been the ,hesters Of his reckless ad.
ventures. He has shot ut many persons,
killing several, aud in return has been
shot at corresponding number of times,
though, thus far, he has happened to es-
cape with his life.
A an illustration of the desperate char
scter of this mans relatives and asso-
ciates, it is related that two Of them ell
tered into this singular manifestation of
their friendship for each other: When
ever either died, the survivor was to dance
on his gravel One Of them did die, soon
after; the other was prevented from full
filing his unnatural agreement in an un-
foreseen manner. He applied for the loan
Of carriage; the owner refused; where
upon the irate man assaulted him, and in
return was shot dead on the spot!
Finally the hero of so many bloody en-
counters killed his own uncle on account
of political difference, and for this Of
fence he has been put on trial. His nu-
merous adventures, if related as fiction,
would appear incredible.
What pleasure there can be in such a
life, even if the actor escapes punishment
in this world, 10 uncomfortable to persons
who are constituted with the ordinary at
tributes of humanity. A desire or relish
for the career of an outlaw seems as un-
natural and unaccountable as the promise
of this mans two mutual friends that the
survivor should dance upon the grave Of
the one who died firstl Such career is,
indeed, kind of lifelong dance among
the graves, and perpetual lodging Of

The StOrk.

Every summer visitor to Germany is
familiar with the appearance Of the
stOrk, in both town and country. In
some of the more southern villages they
are very numerous, many of the gables
being crowned with stork's nest.
There the birds may be seen stalking
about fearlessly with the domestic fowls
and familiar with man, as knowing them
selves secure from molestation. Fer not
only is the bird valued as destroyer of
vermin, but in every country which he
frequents, a superstitiOus veneration at
taches to him. Among the ancient Egyp-
tians he was accounted sacred, anu in
Turkey it was, until recently, u capital
crime to kill stork. In Germany there
is q saying, "Blessed is the house that
hath a st0rk for its guest" and the pres.
ence of stork's nest on the roof is be-
lieved to be protection against fire and
lightning. -.r,a+'
This bird, though often a dweller in
cities, prefers to frequent low aud marshy
country places. In summer they special
ly abound in that vast tract in Germany
known as the Great Luneberg Heath or
Desert. They are of two kinds, difi.ren,
in color, though of the same species.
One Is snow white, with blacl. wings,
and bill and legs Of brilliant red; the
other, more rarely met with, is jet black,
with bill and legs of red. Both are very
beautiful birds Of passage, in size ana
shape resembling the Americas crane.
The stork has no note and NO voice,
but by throwing his head over his shout.

back he makes . tremendous harsh, rasp-

IT is a great mistake to suppose that a
woman with no heart will be an easy
creditor in the change of affection. There
is not on earth more merciless exacter
of love from others than thoroughly
selfish woman, and the more unlovely
she grows the more jealously and unscru-
pulously she exacts love to the uttermost
farthing.-Mrs. Sto,ee.

MR.. Cox, of New York, is little fel-

and his speech in the House yesterday is
fairly characteristic of him. 1t was a
good thing; and the most of it is true
We hope that there will be more such
speeches; and that the men who stole the
Presidency and are now dividing among
themselves the spoils, will not near the
last of it. Nearly all the chief conspira-
tors are filling high places, and receiving
large salaries. Mr.. Cox concluded his
speech yesterday, by saying
1.-TWO of the electoral lawyers wer,
cabinet members; two Others were il
foreign missions. A former private
secretary had the best German consulat,
Some of those violations of civil service
reform defied all classification. The his
tory OF no government furnished proc

critical practices. Political debaucher,

The Egyptian Tribute" which is the
chief British interest now involved in
the settlement of the Eastern war,
