A Remarkable Crime.

The secret of q remarkable murder
was recently disclosed in medical lect-
IRE delivered in London by the eminent
DIR. Bucknill. In discussing the legal
relations of insanity he remarked that
the most singular case in which he had
ever been concerned was that OF Con-
stance Kent, who murdered her young
brother and escaped detection. After
an interval of several years truly con-
scientious motive led her to confess, and
DR.. Bucknill examined her for the pur-
pose of ascertaining whether it would
be right to enter the plea of mot guilty
on the ground of insanity" He was
compelled to advise against it, and her
counsel admitted that the experts could
not do otherwise. By her own wish he
published letter in which the material
facts of the crime were described, but
as the motive was not disclosed the case
was still enveloped in mystery; for how
could a young girl, who was not insane,
have murdered her beautiful boy brother
in cold blood? DIR. Bucknill, after keep
ing the secret for many years, now ex-
plains that real and dreadful motive
did exist. The girls mother, having
pOcoAhO PoA uCAichttu, Who lClb ny
her husband to live in the seclusion of
her own room, while the management of
the household was taken over the heads
of grown-up daughters by a high.spirit-
ed governess, who, after the decease of
the first Mrs Kent, AMI decent interval,
became Constance Ken g step-mother.
In this position she was unwise enough
to make disparaging remarks about her
predecessor, little dreaming, poor lady,
the fund of rage and revengeful feeling
she was stirring up in the heart Of her
young step-daughter. To escape from
her hated presence, Constance once ran
away from home. but was brought back;
and after this she only thought of the
most efficient manner of wreaking her
vengeance. She thought of poisoning
her step-mother, but that, on reflection,
she felt would be no real punishment,
and then it was that she determined to
murder the poor lady's boy, her only
child. A dreadful story this; but who
can fail to pity the depths of household
misery which it denotes2

Indications.

There are not wanting indications of
a real revival of prosperity.
First. The revival of foreign immi-
grafton. For the first time in five or six
years the tide of foreign immigration
has set in toward this port. This is an
unmistakable sign of prosperity.
Second. The under-current of the
stock exchange is buoyant. No bear
movement has been successful since the
passage of the Silver bill. Every down
ward movement has been almost instant
ly followed by an upward movement.
Third. Railroad building has been
resumed, more especially in the far West.
This, of course, has already reacted on
the iron industries of Pennsylvania and
the increased activity there will, in time,
produce an increased activity in the New
England mills.
Fourth. The prosperity of the far
West is phenomenal. Nothing similar
has been known heretofore. The har-
vests promise great abundance, and the
tide of settlement is flowing in rapidly.
New lands are being brought under Gull
tivation feeders to the great trunk lines
of railroad are being constructed, and
the demand for manufactured products
is sure to be large.
Fifth. Our foreign commerce is
steadily increasing. This is another
excellent criterion of returning pros
perity.-NeU York Graphic.

BY MARIAN poUaLAs.

Still shines that Sabbath morn for me,
Its breeze still whispers low;
Twas yesterday; IL caunot be
Twas thirty years ago,
little girl, in broad-brmmed hat,
In the old Westinghouse | sat;
The south wind through the doorway pie"'
And the old deacon. in the pew
In front, looked back and gave to me,
Fun blown, crimson peony.
What sudden sense of wealth was mine!
To my delighted eyes,
1t seemed blossom such as might
Have grown in Paradise;
so wide its silken petals spread,
50 rich it's robe of royal red,
P1nks, roses, lilies, violets, all
NY garden blossoms, great and small,
Seemed poor, pale, common things to me,
BY that respondent peony!
In what serene content spent
That ofttimes weary hour.
My little head in rapture bent
Above that matchless flower!
The prayer and hymn were both unheard;
lost the sermon, every word
But oh, what charms, unseen before,
For me, that gray old deacon worel
The best of men. thought, must be
The giver Of that peony.
Time fies with swallows wings away;
/ count the years, and know
That Sabbath was not yesterday,
But thirty years ago;
The very meeting-house is gone
We gathered in that summer morn;
The preachers voice Is hushed, and wave
The daisies DER the deacon's grave;
But, fresh and fragrant, still for me
Unfading, blooms that peony-
Still bright, as when, above its breast,
That happy day l smiled;
oh. best, for aye the gift IL best
Bestowed upon a child!
1t has a worth beyond its own
A charm TO all things else unknown!
How perfect IL the JOY 1t givesi
How long in memory 1t lives
And childhood's spell yet makes for me
flower of flowers, the peony!

Cats i'm Spain.

Cats have nice time in Spain, l hear.
No dismal moonlight prowling over
fences and back sheds for them They
have the roofs of the whole country for
their walks, and need never touch the
ground unless they choose. I'll tell you
why. Grain is stored in the attics ofSpain
because they are too hot for anything
else. Butrais and mice delight in attics,
as well as grain. So each owner cuts
small door from the roof, big enough
for puss, and any homeless cat is well
come to her warm home, in return for
which she keeps away rats. In sud-
den rain 1T must be funny to see dozens
OF cats scampering over the roofs to their
homes among the grain-bags.
