An ElOpement Frustrated.

A commercial traveller, while taking
a stroll in the streets of Peoria, noticed Il
young lady in q phaeton who was driv-
ing FESTIVE horse. He stopped for a
moment, caught the lady's eye, quickly
stepped in front of the horse and ten
dered his services as driver. The lady
blushingly accepted, and the conse-
quence was an exchange of names, a
pleasant ride. a somewhat tender good
night" and pledges to learn more of each
other. On the following evening the
lady drove down town and found the
gentleman in waiting, and another JOY
Gus ride was taken. The commercial
traveller went his way, but returned in
the winter to meet the fair maid at a
party and to devote himself to her. Her
father W ent to Chicago and learned that
the young man had been divorced under
questionable circumstances. He went
home to put an end to the whole affair.
His decision was communicated to the
young lady, and by her taken very much
to heart. For a time all communication
between the lovers was shut off. But
there was a stolen meeting after while

The Tshudf.

A letter from one of Prof. Nordensk-
jold's assistants, recently published in
various Scandinavian papers, gives an
interesting account of the Tshudi, PEE
culiar race inhabiting the northeastern
part of Siberia. They look very much
like the eenlsnders, are small but
alert, have a brownish-yellow skin, with
coal-black eyes and hair, and singular
joyless, almost frozen, expression of face.
They live in. tents, dress in skins, and
feed on scal-fish. Their women are
tatooed in the face. In their intercourse
with the crew of the Vega, they were a
little shy, but curious, like penguins,
and willing to help. Their moral ideas
were rather matt but firmly adhered to,
as far as then went. OF Their language,
dictionary (Tshudi-S wedisL) has been
made, comprising about three hundred
words, and it will, no doubt, prove Of
interest TO the linguists, as the tongues
OF the Polar races have hitherto been as
great /. puzzle to the philologists as those
of the negroes of tropical Africa.

Ayarice OutWitted.

The case of john Eyre, Esq, who,
though worth upward Of $3.50, 900, was
convicted at the Old Bailey and sentenced
to transportation for stealing eleven
quires of common writing paper, was
rendered more memorable by the oppor-
tunity which it gave Junius to impeach
the integrity of Lord Mansfield, who was
supposed to have erred in admitting him
to bail. An anecdote is related of Mr..
Eyre which shows in a striking manner
the natural dcpravity of the human
heart; and may help to account for the
meanness of the crime for which he stood
convicted. An uncle ofhis, gentleman
of considerable property, made his will
in favor of a clergyman. who was his in
innate friend, and committed it, I'M
known to the rest of the family, to the
divine. However, not long before his
death, having altered his mind with re-
gard to the disposal of his wealth, he
made another will, in which he left the
clergyman only $4,000, and leaving the
bulk of his fortune to go TO his nephew
and heir at law, Mr.. Eyre. Soon after
the old gentleman's death, Mr.. Eyre,
rummaging over his drawers, found this
last will, and perceiving the legacy of
s., 800. n it for the clergyman, with
out any hesitation or scruple Of con-
science put it in the fire, and took possess
sion of the whole effects, in consequence
of his uncle being supposed to have died
interstate. The clergyman coming to
town soon after, and lnquiring into the
circumstances of his old friends death,
asked if he made any will before he died.
On being answered by Mr.. Eyre in the
negative, the clergyman coolly put his
hand in his pocket and pulled out the
former will, which had been committed
to his care, in which Mr.. Eyre had be-
queathed him the whole of his fortune,
amounting to several thousand dollars,
excepting legacy of $4,000 to his
nephew. .-..s

The Ex-Khediye's Harem.

A letter from Alexandria, Egypt, gives
this account of the harem belonging to
the deposed Khedive of Egypt: Most
Of the ladies wore suitable travelling
European costumes. with light and ele-
CANT wells, or apologies for yashmahs :"
but the servants of different grades wore
the tarha and khatara of the ordinary
make. The styles of beauty were as
varied as the toilets. Some of the ladies
had hair and complexion as fair as those
of English women. Others were of the
Spanish type, with the black hair and
eyes. Except among the servants, none
seemed over twenty-five years of age !;
but there pervaded them all a listless
and vacant look, as of beings with no
occupation or aim in life. All the morn
ing there was an incessant hurrying to
and fro of boats with baggage and house
hold goods, until at two T.. M. another
special train arrived with the second and
larger portion of the harem. In this /
counted nine barges or boats between
the shore and the yacht, each containing
from six To eight women. Perhaps some
of these did not go in the ship, but were
friends who afterward returned to
Cairo, and many were merely "helps, =
in whom beauty was conspicuous by its
absence. Then came Ismail Pacha's
three lawful wives. The fourth, the
mother of Prince Tewfik, the present
Viceroy, remains at Cairo, near her son.
The scenes at the Cairo railway station
between those members Of the harem
who were going and those who were
staying behind are said to have been
+. heartrending. and it was with much
difficulty the train could be started. AL.
though their life is one of seclusion and
confinement, they are accustomed to
every comfort. and / doubt if at Cairo
any Of the harem had the least idea OF
their future residences all they knew
was that they were leaving their friends
and surroundings to be landed in some
strange country across the sea.

able remedy. Hosetter's Stomach Bitters is
the most reliable and widely esteemed medi-
cine OF its class. 1t removes the causes of
constipation, or of undue relaxation OF the in
testines, which are usually indigestion or a
misdirection OF the bile. When it acts as a
cathartic, it does not grippe and violently evacu-
ate, but produces gradual and natural effects,
very unlike those of drastic purgative; and
its power of assisting digestion nulifes those
irritating conditions of the mucous membrane
OF the stomach and intestinal canal which pro-
duce first diarrhea, and eventually dysentery.
The medicine is, moreover, an agreeable one,
and eminently pure and wholesome Appetite
