How Gen. Shields was Cured.

The late Gen. Shields, at the battle of Cerro Gordo, in Mexico, was severely wounded while leading his men, but he refused to quit the field. He advanced to the charge, when he was struck in the chest by copper grapeshot that passed through his lungs. He fell into the arms of Oglesby, at present United States Senator from Illinois, and was carried from the battlefield to all ap- paarances lifeless. Obituary notices app peared afterward in nearly all the papers of the country, so convinced Fere the brother officers of the impossibility of his surviving such terrible wound. For weeks he lay at the brink of death in the neighborhood of the battlefield, and his cure seems little short of mir acle. The army surgeons had given him over for death when Mexican doctor said he would live if he would let him remove the coagulated blood iron the wound. Shields, as a kill or cure reme- dy, told him to try, and a fine silk hand kerchief was worked in and finally drawn through the wound, removing the extravasant blood, when daylight could be seen through the hole. He lived to be hale and hearty man, from disease or any inconvenience from the wound, which was considered at that time mortal.

 He had been sitting in the sun by the window all sbrooding. They had been very kind to him. these people, but kindness wears itself out after awhile. What was to become of him?

 He turned his sightless eyes toward the door where Meg was entering noise less as a spirit, and his face kindled eagerly. Noiselessly she closed the door behind her. He was so changed, so white and worn, that her own heart stopped its pulsations for a moment. She feared any sudden shock might over come him. She dared not speak lest he should know her voice. Strange that she had not thought of this before!

Washington in Tears.

Washington had accepted an invita- tion from Arnold to breakfast with him on the very day the plot was discovered, but was prevented from keeping his en- gagement by what men call chancc-by the earnest request, namely, of an old officer, near whose station they passed, to spend the night there and inspect some works in the neighborhood. Next day while Washington, with his staff, including Lafayette, were seated at table at this officers quarters, a dispatch was brought to the American general, which he immediately opened and read then laid it down without comment. No alteration was visible in his countenance, but he remained perfectly silent Con- versation dropped among his suite; and after some minutes the general, beckon- ing Lafayette to follow him, passed to an inner apartment, turned to his young friend without utteringa a syllable, placed the fatal dispatch in his hands, and then feeling, fell on his neck and sobbed aloud. The effect produced on the young French Marquis, accustomed to regard his general (cold and dignified in his usual manner) as devoid of the usual weaknesses of humanity, may be inn agined. ' I believe.n said Lafayette, in relating this anecdote, "that this was the only occasion throughout the long and sometimes hopeless struggle that Washington ever gave way, even for a moment, under reverse of fortune: and, perhaps, I was the only human being who ever witnessed in him an eX- hibition of feeling so foreign to his tenn perament. As it was, he recovered be- fore had pcrused the communication that had given rise to his emotion; and when we returned to his staff not a trace remained on his countenance either of grief or despondency."- -LtppincoHs MnQnzi2ae.

On the War Path.

They were on the march toward Capua, to meet the revolted Latin tribes, those wicked people who talked in six cases and more exceptions than conjunc- tion, and who were named after the Latin grammar, when the consul, Man Illus Torquatus, remarked to his col league:
 = should hate to marry girl whose father is dead. because my lungs aren't very good anyhow, and would have to asthma for her"
 And you think you'd need the old mans infiuenzy. heyP" replied Decius
 ''Oh, as to that" said Manlius, ''I wouldn't need it so very lung"
 Mo-" rejoined the friend, "but you wouldn't want to throat away for all that?n
 Indeed not" said Manlius, ''that would be no choke"
 No, there's no inspiration in 1t"
 The consul made one or two intellectual efforts to get in something on the bron- chial tubes, but failed ignominiously, and Decius. laughing at his failure, laughingly sang, " Tommy, make croup for your uncle." It is thought that this had something to do with Decius' death the following day Barlington HaaOkeye.

Escorts as a Brancn of Trade

mong the many new and peculiar aids to material comfort in the metro polls, writes New Y York correspondent. no single one contributes more at a cheap CT rate than the district telegraph sys- tera. It includes, as you doubtless know, a messenger, police and fire ser vice, but it also includes an escort ser vice, which is comparatively little known, which, as it is for the special use and behoof of unprotected women, ought to be widely understood. Sup pose a lady chance to stay over night>in town and desire to go to the theater or opera. but has no one to attend her. She simply leaves Der address and S2 at the nearest district telegraph office, and at the proper time well-dressed, well hammered man presents himself, and takes her to the playhouse, buying the tickets, paying car fares, etc. for which she of course, supplies the funds. The man Is quiet and modest, and in no possible way distinguished from the lady'S husband, brother or friend; so that, so far as all practical aid is con- cerned. she is just as well off as if her natural guardians were with her. At first glance 1t might be supposed there would be little need of any such ser there are hundreds and thousands of women who have no man belonging to them, and who must either stay at home or put themselves to the annoyance of taxing the good will of somebody upon whom they have no recognized claim. The fact that this branch of the district service is growing constantly and steadi- ly shows how great was the need of it here

MEG.

Margaret Neale, a girl of twenty or jte,cahouts, sat on a low, broad stone aj the edge of the cliff that overhung the sra. Her features were irregular, but she had ;tcertain dark, gypsy-like beauty of her own. Her hands were claSped :,hout her knees; there was a hard, set look about the unsmiling mouth; and lie eyes, that were sometimes most ten der, had dangerous light in them as they gazpd steadfastly off over the dark cGing sea to 8 distant horizon, still red with the reflected glow of the sunset.
 At little distance, but with his back toward her, and his steel-blue eyes just aS steadfastly bent in the opposite direc- tion, stood Matthew Erickson, hand some young fellow enough, in the rough dress of miner, tall, strong and ruddy, with a full curling, chestnut beard, and hair of the same rich color. A blue rib bon dangled from his left hand.
 T ere had evidently been quarrel. and a lovo quarrel in struggling min- ing hamlet on the northwest coast of England does not differ greatly from one in U scattered fishing hamlet on the east ern coast of Maine. Forms of speech may diner. but love and anger are much tll same the wide world over.
 Tired of the silence at length, the young miner sauntered away with an air of a sumed indifference, and picking up Il handful of pebbles, slowly tossed them, one by one. into the waves below. Mar giret's eyes did not waver, but none the less did she follow every motion of his hand Having watched the fall of his last pebble, he came back and stood be-

Words of Wisdom.

Mems muscles move better when their souls are making merry music.
 Man has to gc out and seek his path; woman's path usually lies close under her feet.
 When peoples feelings have got a deadly wound they can't be cured by favors.
 Pleasure is the mere accident of our being, and work its most natural and holy necessity.
 Some persons move through life as a band of music moves down the street, flinging out pleasure on every side through the air to every one, far and near, that cares to listen.
 If all were as willing to be pleasant and as anxious to please ill their own homes as they are in the company their neighbors they would have the happiest homes in the world.
 Times of the greatest calamity and con fusion have ever been productive of the greatest minds. The purest ore comes from the hottest furnace; the brightest flash from the darkest cloud
 Our eyesight is the most exquisite of our senses, yet it does not serve us to discern wisdom; if it did what a glow of love would she kindle within us and whoour lives would be beautitied.
 UOOu WOTuS uo more tntH uaTu speeches; as the sunbeams without any noise will make the traveller cast off his cloak, which all the clustering winds could not do. but only make him draw it closer to him.
 The industrious bee does not stop to complain that there are so many poison ous flowers and thorny branches in the road, but buzzes on, selecting the honey where she can find it and pass ing by the place where it is not.
