Tweed's Last Hours.

A New York telegram gives the fol-
lowing particulars relative to the death
of "Boss" Tweed:
Tweed had been dangerously ill for
several days. His death resulted from
complication of disorders, but was
caused directly by nervous exhaustion
and clogging Of the action Of the heart.
He was delirious last night and early
this morning, when he was attended
only by his servant. Later, he became
calm, and rallied. He was conscious
till within a few moments of his death,
and short time before drank little
tea. Shortly before death he said
to Mr.. Edelstein, lawyer, something
with reference to the effect upon his
health and fortunes of his confinement
in jail. and, mentioning some persons
by names, exclaimed "They will be
satisfied now" No member of his
family was in his room when he died,
although his daughter, Mrs. Douglass,
was in an adjoining apartment. His
wife, his sons Richard and William M. +,
Jr., and other relatives. near and re-
mote, were in Europe, where they have
been for some months. His rooms
were sumptuously furnished, but his
meals had been brought to him from
the jail. His beard was snow-white,
and so was his hair; his face was very
thin, but the dimensions of his figure
had not been perceptibly reduced.
At the time of his death there was no
struggle, as he passed away in sleep,
with his head lying upon his arm.
Keeper Kirnin was hurriedly sum-
moned three minutes before noon, and,
reaching Mr.. Tweed's room, the noon
signal rang out, and the long-prisoned
old man dropped back dead in his bed.
The announcement of his death
spread rapidly. and crowd of curious
people soon assembled outside the Jail,
peering eagerly into the half-closed
windows.

Mary's Little Lamb.

WHO would have believed that the
little pet lamb which followed Mary
everywhere would now be helping to
save the Old South Church? All chill
dren know the old song:
Mary had a little lamb
It's fleece WIS white as snow,
And everywhere that Mary went
The lamb was sure to go.
Aud many of them know that there is
in Boston an old church, on Washing
ton street, at the corner of Milk. The
land upon which it stands is worth q
great sum of money, and, as the prop
erty was offered for sale, there was
much danger that the house would be
torn down to make room for block OF
stores. The old church has been so
famous in the history of Massachusetts,
that there was a strong feeling against
tearing it down, and to save it num-
Der Of women of wealth bought it,
pledging over 100000. For months
they have been hard at work in a great
many ways to secure money enough to
pay for It. For several weeks past
" Aunt Tabitha" has held spinning
bee in the church. Three or four old
ladies, who were famous spinners in
their young days, when it was the Gus
tom to wear homespun garments, have
had their hatchels, and reels, and
wheels, and have spun for the people.
A great many have watched them at
their work each afternoon. To add to
the attractions of the exhibition, the old
ladies have been dressed in the styles
which were common when they were
Young, and have worked in an old-time
kitchen, with its open fireplace and
glowing logs.
Among the visitors one day was the
real Mary, who, when little girl, had
the pet lamb for her own. She was
very willing to tell the story; suppose
we listen with the rest. LittlL Mary's
name was Mary Sawyer. and she lived
in Sterling, Mass. She is now Mrs.
Tyler, of Somerville, vigorous lady
over 20 years old. One morning she
went out to the barn and found two
little lambs, which had been born in
the night. One was so weak and small
that her father said it was of no use to
try to raise it. Mary's tender heart
pitied the tiny creature, and she begged
her father to let her try to save it. He
gave it to her care, promising if it lived
It should be her lamb. Mary took it
into the house, wrapped it up, laid it in
a warm place, and fed it carefully with
milk. All day she watched it, and night
too. In the morning how glad she
was to hear her father say that the
lamb would live!
1t is no wonder that the pet lamb

A Partisan Beauty's Revenge.

An English Marchioness, resident in
the Legitimist faubourg, and avoiding
the Napoleonites as "low," gave grand
parties. To one of these an English
lady took, unlimited, a pretty French
woman, friend of the Empress. The
pretty woman made herself conspicu-
Gus by her prettiness and flirtations,
but the Marchioness found out who she
was. and was disgusted. She said to
her:
81 am so conscious of the honor you
have done me that l dare not expect a
repetition of the unexpected compli-
ment."
The pretty woman grew pale, but
smiled, and ordered cavalier to or
der her carriage. The pretty woman
was clever, and tinessed revenge.
She bribed the Marchioness' femme de
cham6re to give her the list of guests
invited for the next soiree. Armed
with this, she prepared circular note.
which she dispatched to each of the in
vited late in the afternoon of the ap-
pointed day: "The Marchioness pre-
sents her compliments to so and SO,

INCIDENTS AND ACCIDENTS.

"A Cold Spring, Putnam County, N.
T., man has just dislodged q horse-fly
from his tympanum that had been
leader of the orchestra there for two
years.
"A woman employed as stitcher in
shoe shop in North Adams, Mass,
died q few days since from the effect of
poison contained in the fancy colored
leather on which she worked.
"A cargo of rags from Egypt was
landed recently at New Haven for a
paper company at Windsor Locks, and
the New Haven Union says that three
employees of the company have died
suddenly of disease contracted while
handling the rags.
"a man was scared to death in Ber-
ryville. Mo. He was passing grave
yard at midnight, when two men sprang
from behind monument and shouted
at him. He ran home and went to bed,
but was SO nervous that he could not
sleep, and before morning he died in
commissions.
An absent-minded man in Monroe,
Conn.,, went to church the other morn
ing with his oyercoat, as he supposed,
on his arm, but the laughing of the
people in church directed his attention
to the fact that he had taken his every
day pantaloons, and that the suspend
ers attached to them were dangling
about his legs.
There Was panic at the Metro
-politan Theater, Sacramento, March
IA. A boy, who had concealed himself
in the loft to witness the play surrepti-
tiously by peeping through the venti-
lator, made mistake and forced his
leg through the plastering, large frag-
ments of which fell over the east and
lower side of the parquette. The spec
tators sprang to their feet and began to
work their way into the aisles, and to-
ward the doors; but as the whole cell
ing did not give way and the small boy
was speedily discovered, the panic was
soon over and the play went on.
The other day, as lady of this
city was passing some small boys, one
of them opened his hand to display
some fine agates to his companions.
They looked at them admiringly, and
presently one of the boys turning to the
fortunate owner said: 81 owe you
licking, but give me one of those
agates, and I'll call it square, The
little fellow looked up in the others
face, hesitated moment, and then, Sc
lecting a marble, silently passed it
over, after which all the lads went on
with their play as if nothing unusual
had occurred, the little marble-owner
seeming to think the bargain fair one.

AT the Skaneateles, N. Y, paper
mill, the other day, Miss Sarah Glass
was engaged in sweeping about and
under machinery which was revolving
at a rapid rate, when, by some means
unknown, her clothing became entan-
gled in the betting, and for a moment
it seemed as if the poor girl was des-
tined to be killed. Her screams attract
ed the attention of sister near by, who
rushed to the rescue and succeeded in
catching her, and by almost hercu-
lean strength held the devoted sister
in her arms until the betting had al
most torn every particle of clothing off
from her. Luckily assistance came and
the machinery was stopped, and Miss
Glass escaped with some slight bruises,
but was badly scared.

Extraordinary Case Of Somnambulism.

As Sergt. Haggerty was sitting at
the desk in the Fifth-street Police Sta
lion shortly before midnight on Mon
day a pale young man entered the room.
"What do you want?' asked the Ser
geant.
II have come to give myself up"
answered the young man, in a low
voice.
"Come to give yourself upp' said the
Sergeant, half inquiringly. "Well,
what's the matterP'
"rve killed my girl,'' replied the
young man, who seemed to grow paler
as he spoke.
"Come, now," said the Sergeant,
forcing smile; s.this is the 1st of April. u
"But / killed her," pleaded the
young man. Il poked her head through
a window and cut her throat from ear
to ear"
The Sergeant at first thought that
the young man was drunk, and then
that he was an escaped lunatic. He
asked:
"Wnere does your girl llvep'
"She lives at No. SIC East Four
teenth street, and her rame is Eliza
Gleason" was the answer.
The Sergeant called Special Officer
Bissart and told him to GO to the house
mentioned. just as the officer went
away the young man started for the
door.
"Hold on" said the Sergeant, stern
ly. "You are a prisoner
The young man, not needing the COM
mand, continued toward the doorway,
and the Sergeant hurried from behind
the desk and grasped him by the shoul-
der.
"Where am I?' exclaimed the young
man, shuddering and looking about him
in dazed way. There was no reply
to his question, but he was locked up.
The detective returned from the resi-
dence of the young lady, saying that
she was alive, and that when he in.
formed her of the charge the young
man had made against himself she
thought some one was trying to make
her the victim of an April FOOLS joke
Yesterday morning the young man was
taken before Judge Flammer, in the
Essex Market Police Court, and was
Immediately discharged. His friends
say that he is a somnambulist, anC
that he was undoubtedly asleep when
he entered the Police Station. He ha6
been reading of Mime. Restell's terrible
death, and, falling asleep, dreamed
that he had committed a murder. Hi
name is Peter CODY, and he is in thu
employ of the father of the young lady
whose name he mentioned in the sta
ton. DR.. Austin Flint, Sr., and DR.
Ranney thinks that it is very extra
ordinary case of somnambulism.-N. Y

A Sad Ending.

For years Beau Brummel was the
leader of fashionable society; but his
spendthrift habits brought him to pow
erty, and his last days are thus de-
scribed by writer in Chambers jour
nal:
A poor, neglected imbecile is living
in squalid lodgings, at Calais. 1t is
scarcely possible to recognize in this
unhappy being the once gay and ele-
giant Beau Brummel, the glass of fash
ion and mold Of form to the men and
women of his generation, whom he
ruled with the despotism of an auto
crat. Yet this is the poor Beau and no
other.
He is holding phantom reception.
Having desired his attendant to arrange
his apartment, set out the whist-tables
and light the candle-alas! only tallow
he is ready at eight o. clock to receive
the guests which the servant, previous
ly instructed, now announces.
First comes the Duchess of Devon
shire. On hearing her name, the Beau
leaves his chair, and with the courtliest
bow, the only "reminiscences of his de-
pdTUcu RiOTy, nc nttv voiCoo W enO uVVA
and greets the phantom Duchess with
all the honor that he would have given
the beautiful Georgiana.
He takes her hand and leads her to a
seat, saying, as he does so, "Ah, my
dear Duchess, how rejoiced / am to see
you! So very amiable of you to come
at this short notice. Pray bury your
self in this armchair. Do you know it
was the gift to me of the Duchess Of
York, who was . very kind friend Of
mine? but, poor thing, you know she
is no more!''
At this point tears of idiocy would
fall from his eyes, and he would sink
into the armchair himself, awaiting the
arrival Of other guests. who, being duly
announced, were similarly greeted.
With these ghosts &6f the past be
would spend the evening until ten
o'clock, when the servant, telling each
guest that his or her carriage was In
waiting, would carry his poor old mas
ter OF to bed. We cannot wish him
goodnight without the payment OF Z
sigh for the pantomime he has acted,
and the sad lesson It CONVEYS.

But. creeping back to his dear old
Rosa, he lay down beside her, as he
felt sick and faint with the sitting air;
and God mercifully looked down on the
little hero, and soon ended his suffer-

was extinguished. But there, close be-
side the dead animal, his body was
found. and the memory of his noble
deed is still cherished in those regions.
