A STRANGE HRlIucfnotlOn

On last Tuesday evening a young
woman, giving the name Of Mary f.
Holland, applied at the Woman's Chris
tian Association, at Philadelphia, fol
lodging, and she was taken in. Hel
mind was evidently wandering, but
she improved qaite perceptibly under
the kind treatment she received. On
Thursday morning the matron was
startled by the noise Of breaking glass,
and saw the young woman on tho fiat,
which she had reached by leaping from
her window. The matron ran out upon
the fiat to seize the girl, but before she
could secure her Miss Holland leaped
through a skylight directly over the
kitchen and fell on a boiler over the
range, then to the floor, causing great
futter among the cooks preparing break
fast. BY a miracle the young woman
escaped without broken bone, but
sustained several serious bruises. On
being questioned she said she had
heard bell ring and thought that
Judgment day had come. Looking from
her window she conceived the idea that
the skylight was heaven, and, belisv-
ing that she was pursued, leaped from
the window.
Daily Republican., 1879-12-08
Married with Rife in Hand. .


From the Portland (Oregon) Bee, Nov. q.
The news of the curious sequel Of a
love affair just reached US from Port
Townsend. A certain young man fell
in love with q beautiful young lady
residing near Port Townsend. His
passion was reciprocated, marriage was
proposed, but the young lady's parents
would have none Of 1t. The father and
a belligerent uncle threatened to do the
young "Romeo" serious personal in
Jury in case his attention were contin.
ued, and forbade him ever again enter
ing the premises, and the young lady
is represented as having been bitterly
prosecuted on account of her refusal to
discountenancs the discarded suitor.--
The young man becoming aware Of this
fact, determined to marry at once. Ac-
oordingly, procuring license and the
services OF the necessarily constituted
authority, and withal good Winohes-
ter rife, he repaired to the house Of the
young womsn's parents. Encounter
ing the father and the irate uncle in
the yard he bade them "hands off,"
declaring that they had threatened to
do him personal injury, and that in the
eyes of the law he would be justified in
doing serious execution with his rifle
in case they attempted to execute it, and
right there, before the gaze Of the two
astonished belligsrents, with one eye
fixed on them, the other on the fair one
by his side, and with one hand clutch
ing his rife, and the other grasping
that OF his affianced, the nuptial knot
was tied, and the happy couple depart

[ tThat comes to what want" said,
i"it's Godv' The elder said, "You must
come to 1t as near as you can. What
is the use Of fretting yourself. Do all
you can. Visit the sick, sing, pray!'
but the hunger went on, and when
read, "Rejoice when men persecute
you," felt that was not my expert
ence; there was feeling of retaliation.
And when they spoke about me and
blamed me, / wanted to justify myself
instead of leaving it all with God.
Then | read, "This Is the will OF
God, eyeH your sanctiacation.' went
to the old deacon and asked, whats
the meaning Of this'' "Oh," he said,
"tha.'s the blessing people get jast be-
fore they die" Well, ! didn't want to
die wanted to live and work for God ;
and when they told ne, "You'll never
live this life till you die" wanted to
live, and not to die.
10 1868 it pleased God to let me hear
sermon from Rev. J. S. Inskip, from
the words, "Put on the new man, which
after God Is created in righteousness
and true holiness" Eph. iv. %,
"a. had never read book or tract
or definite testimony, but now,
as the preacher went on, fol-
lowed like a child with its hand in its
fathers, and as he made point after
point, said, Yes, that's plain" But
thought, If got it, how shall keep
itl didn't remember it was Christ
keeping me. Mr.. Inskip said, "When
you are tired and 60 to bed you don't
think Of asking how you are to breathe;
and SO If you get God dwelling in you,
He'll live Himself in you" "Yes,"
said, 81 see it," Just then mighty
baptism-I don't know what else to call
it--came down on me. Every nerve in
body, soul and spirit seemed to feel it.
A Joy and power welled up in my heart
to overlooking.
The next point was, that this bless
ing was instantaneously received but
the development would be continuous.
"How long Is dark room dark after
you take light into it ?" eyes, Lord,
see it., said, and down came this
wonderful inexpressible something,
bringing every thought into captivity
TO the obedience Of Christ. The preach.
or went on: "If Jesus is able in the
twinkling Of an eye to change this vile
body, and make 1t like unto His own
glorious body, how long does 1t take
Him to sanctify soul 7" Quicker than
the sparks fly from the steel, | touched
God-God touched me. Hallelujah (!
The first result was the establish
ment Of my faith in all God said. l
believed all the Bible. At Keswick,
last year, looked out on that great
mountain Skiddaw; a few weeks ago l
saw 1t again. We have had a hard
winter, but the mountain 10 not
changed. Isaid, 30 Lord, make me
like Skiddaw." The storms were real
that beat upon Skiddaw and it has
been 80 in my experience-real fights
and real victories. l don't see any
apologies in the Bible for speaking
about what the Lord has done for our
souls. Oh, it's God Glory to His
name! The half has not been told.
(sipgs)
"Oi peace only knew the name,
Nor found my soul in rest,
Until the sweet-voiced angel came,
To smooth the weary breast.
The half was never told,
The hall was never told,
OF peace so divine so wonderful
The half was never told.'

STRAY II Orse.

Joseph Guest advertises a pair Of
horses that came TO his premises near
Bellevue Station, Brandywine Hundred,
last Friday morning. One is brown
and the other bay, one about eight
and the other near II years old. They
answer very nearly the description Of a
pair Of horses recently stolen from
Bucks County for the recovery of which
and the arrest and conviction Of the
thief, a reward Of $3.50 is offered. 1t ID
likely however that they belong to some
one in this nsighborhood.
