A Good Story.

We (Stanthorpe POST are indebted
to Mr.. James Worrell, of Sugarloaf
a gentleman upon whose veracity we
place the best reliance, for the follow
ing account of a most extraordinary
occurrence. We give the staten ent
as nearly as possible in Mr.. Worrell's
own words:-"I give you the details

I think the lad must have been crazy
for while; his coat was slit open
down the back; but, although his
face was covered with blood when he
got home, there was not scratch on
him. The kangaroo must have been
good sized one to have carried him
about Is ID. weight so far, and with
out spell; and it seems strange that
in the act of jumping he did not
strike the boy with his feet. I have
not the slightest reason to doubt the
truth of the boys statement What
was the motive that prompted the
action ? Some say that if there had
been any water convenient he would
have drowned the boy. 1 have a no.

WINNING A LORD.
How the Beautiful Miss Yznaga
~ Managed it. .fa = &.

The true story of the marriage of
Miss Yznaga to Lord Vaudeville, one
of the most brilliant marriages ever
contracted in this country, has never
been told.
Vaudeville is real, live lord, and
sits in the house of parliament. He
is even a vlscount by an elder brother
having died, and he will be one day
a duke: so our Miss Yznaga in few
wears will be full-fedged duchess.
Or. the contrary, it is very improba-
%s1-.a Z -A4ls I'aasas who has lust
anything but simply Capt. Tagee.
He has several elder brothers who
will succeed to his fathers title before
he does sw e. o,a4.
Miss jerome, the daughter of Leon
ard Jerome, married Lord Churchill
who also sits in parliament, but Lord
Churchill can never be duke like
Vaudeville, unless his elder brother
dies or he earns his title like Disraeli.
The three young ladies, Miss Je-
rome, Miss Yznaga and Miss Stevens,
who have made brilliantly matches in
England, are bosom friends. They
all came from the same social set in
New York, and there is no telling
what three shrewd American women
may do when let loose in English
circles. y,.,
The story of Lord Mandeville's
marriage to Miss Yznaga is as fol-
lows:
The beautiful Miss Yznaga was the
daughter Of Cuban living in New
York in very moderate circumstan-
ces. She had no money and no pros.
pect for money. Her face was liter
ally her fortune. Her father lived in
a modest house down on Eleventh
street. For years Miss Yznaga was a
belle in the Knickerbocker club set
Her beautiful face was always seen
on the front seat at the Coaching
club parade, and she often sat in

way to Jerome park to witness the

vile used to play.
was MISS 4ZnaSa really Deautl1ul
If the reader had seen her at the
Jerome park races, on the balcony of
the club house, the first day of the
fall and spring races, he would not
ask the question, She was a radiant
beauty. Then she practiccd those
artistic ways, that cultured women
have, to make her look classical. In
stature she was magni6cently tall.
She was neither a brunette nor a
blonde, but had sweet pearly COM
plexion that artists delight to paint.
Her beauty was the severe type, like
the Gala lily. Her eyes were large
and lustrous, and her form when,
? draped in the tight fitting princess
might have passed for a second We
nus de Medici. Still Miss Yznaga
was poorpand, poor girls in New
York seldom have suitors, it began
to look asif she was going to be an
old maid, Jerome, and Bennett, and
Travers, and Belmont, all worshipped
Miss Yznaga, and all felt sorry to
think that her charms might fade

General Grant received an enthusiastic
ovation in Norseland. His first touch
ing place was G~othenbnrg, Sweden, and
here, alter a short trip across the Catte-
gat, he made his first acquaintance with
the lords of the old Morse peninsula.
When he landed he was met by a crowd
Of over 5000 people, who cheered loudly
Tor him of whom they had heard so
much. The Swedes who had emigrated
in such large numbers to the United
States have spread his fame among their
countrymen at home. The ships in the
harbor were all decorated in his honor.
He passed the day in Gothenburg, and
then continued his journey to Christiana.
ALI the villages along the route were
decorated, and his coming was made the
occasion Of a gala day.
He landed at OhristisDa on the 18th
inst, and was received with great cert.

greet him. King Oscar IL comes 60
