Mr.. LINCoLN's HoNEsTY.-Th fol-
lowing story is told to show the rigid
honesty of President Lincoln in early
life: When he was Postmaster in a
small Illinois village word came that
the Postoilice agent would be along in a
day or two to collect the money due to
the Government. 1t was about $50,
and one of Lincoln's friends, alarmed
lest the young Postmaster should be
embarrassed by the sudden demand for
so much money, offered to lend him
the sum. Mr.. Lincoln declined with
thanks the proffered kindness, and,
going to the upper shelf of closet,
brought down bag containing the
amount in the very coins which had
come into his hands. He said that he
never allowed himself to use, even for
a day, money which was in his posses
sion belonging to other people.

Caught by Bandits.

Sig. Egidio Sarconi, deputy vice
chancellor in tie ministry of grace and
Justice, set out from Rome about the
middle of August last to enjoy his
months holiday at Corleto Perticara,
hamlet in the Basilicata, md about
half days journey south of Potenza,
the chief town of the province. His
family had preceded him thither, and
in his eagerness to join it with the least
delay possible he stayed no longer in Po-
tenza than to hire vehicle, accepting,
in fact, the first that offered itself. On
he went, anticipating the joyous re-
ception in store for him, and-high
legal fuDctionary as he was-thinking
nothing of the law and as little of it's
breakers, when suddenly, some six
miles from Potenza, he was reused
from his reverie by two gruff voices
bidding the driver pull up. Presently
two sinister faces appeared at the win
dow; two rifles were leveled at him;
and he was told to alight Immediately.
Unarmel himself, with no assistance
near him for miles around, and the
driver most likely an accomplce of his
assailants, there was nothing for it but
to comply. Forthwith the brigands
bound him hand and foot, carried him
up the hill that assembled from the road
side, and on reaching dense forest of
beech trees, deposited him on the
ground. They relieved him of all his
valuabes, including some one hundred
lire he had about him, and then they
told him that unless five thousand
scudl were paid for his ransom he
would be put to death. Vainly did he
plead poverty, and protest that his
family did not possess that sum. His
captors were memorable, and with many
a brutal threat, forced him to write to
his relatives for the sum required. BY
this time it was nightfa!l, and with his
hands and feet bound so tightly that
the cords cut his flesh, he had to stretch
himself full length on the bare, damp
earth while the brigands slept beside
him. On the same spot, and very
nearly the same position, he spent the
whole night and part of the next day.
with scarcely morsel of food or q
drop to drink, till he received orders
to march. His feet were just so far
left free to enable him to walk with
difficulty over the heights and hollows
of their devious path; and when his

him an involuntary cry OF pam MS cap

comes from Foochow, in China, of a
Buddhist priest who is burning himself
up inch by inch and finger by finger,
hoping by this slow course of martyr

His method is to applya ligature to the
finger he intends to destroy and then
burn the end Of the member of in the
flame of candle. Already he has dis
posed of two or three fingers and a
thumb or two, and expects by Christ
mas time to make burnt Offering Of

he will then begin on his toes and con-

REcoGN1r1oN DUE TO LABOR.

RECOGNITION DUE 10 LAbOh'
The following eloquent extract
upon labor is taken from a CONNER
merciaI paper of San Francisco:
Labor is great factor in the
problem of social economies. 1t is
the producer. 1t is the vital energy
that creates society. 1t is the
strength of the people. 1t is the
power the force that sustains the ma
ton. 1t is ever active, it never
ceases. There is not solitary in
slant of time in which labor is not
moving. 1t is in society that which
has SO long been sought for in the
mechanical world-perpetual mo
ton. Through the bright hours of
day, the dim twilight of eve the
darkness of night, ard the cold grey
of the early dawn, 1.-The rythm of cease
less pean never fails in its truest of
all barmonies. 1t is the song of in
dependence; the hymn of the cres
tive ability psalm of vigor, and
hymnic tribute to pure nobility.
Labor builds our villages, towns
and cities all evidence of its hand
work. 1t constructs our railroads,
canals, telegraphs, steamships and
all methods of conveyances are cer7
tain proofs of its ability. 1t iuvents
all the vast array of machinery that
is crowded into our factories; the
engines that give motion to it F.; every
article of comfort or utility, and
thousands of materials for amuse-
ment are testimonials of its originals
ty in design. 1t cutivates our fields
it spreads the sails of our commerce,
it guides the speeding car, and,
most powerful of all, gives to the
printing press its disseminating unI|
versity.
In every ramifcation of society,
in every department of life, labor
has been and ever will continue to be
a self evident blessing to the human
race.
Possessing so many virtues, and
containing no evils, the recognition
due to labor should be pre-eminent
over all other considerations 1t
should receive the warmest gratitude
for the blessings it bestows, and the
higest need of praise should ever be
be given it. 1t should be regarded
with honor and attended by renown.
When labor attains its true deserts
then the highest stage of civilization
will have been attained. Man will
no longer be groveler, but he will
have risen to a condition but little
lower than the angelo

How TO TELL HoRSE'S Ace
The editor of the Southern Planter
says: The other day we met a
gentleman from Alabama, who gave
US piece of information as to ascer.
tanning the age of horse after it
has passed the ninth year, which
was quite new to us, and will be per-
hsps to most of our readers. 1t is
this: After the horse is nine years
old, wrinkle comes in the eyelid at
the upper corner of the lower lid,
and every year thereafter he has one
well defined wrinkle for each year of
his age over nine, If for instance, a
horse has three wrinkles, be is II;
if four, thirteen. Add the number
of wrinkles to nine, and you will al
ways get at it. So says the gentle
man, and he is confident it will new
