Still BURNING About three years
ago the Observer reported the case of q
citizen of this county who, having
married In 1843, lighted fire on his
hearth-stone as soon as he carried his
new wife home, and had kept it burn
ing ever since. The citizen was in town
yesterday and, being questioned about
tho matter, stated that the fire was
still burning and throughout all these
thirty-six years it had never boon al-
lowed to 60 out. Questioned as to
whether or not it made the house un-
comfortably hot in torrid whether, ho
said the extra heat thus generated was
not perceptible. In reply to another
question, he said that in summer
weather, when it was necessary, for
comforts sake, to keep the fire burn
ing very low, he had to get up fre-
quently at night to replenish it slight
ly, but that he counted this as nothing
whom he contemplated the idea of that
fire going out. He has evidently
formed for it, a strong attachment, and
yet one would not take him for a
sentimental man. But this fire is to
him d constant reminder of the day he
first brought homo his bride. Around
1t his children havo grown up into
manhood and womanhood, and their
children have gazed into it's light. It's
was the last light that fell upon the
eyes Of his wife, and he hopes that it
will 'be the last that will fall upon his.
Viewed thus his sentiment in the
matter can be undcrstood, and so
strong lis this sentiment that with the
old man 1t amounts almost to q pas.}

A NEW USE FOR TObACCo.-Thc
uses cftobacco, after having long been
supposed by an ignorant world to he
limited to the practices Of smoking,
chewing and snufiing, have Of late
years been found mitch more extensive
and various. Unfortunately, the gcn-
tlcmun who is most confident as to the
merits of the weed who lives at Cla-
mart, in France, has gone q little too
tastin his anxiety to turn il to advan-
tagc. He has developed a.theory that
tho inhalation Of tobacco smoke by
fowls causes their flesh to assume !,
wonderfully white color, and to be-
come worry tender at the samc time.
lie accordingly shut up chicken in
his fowlhousc and set fire to q store Of
'coporal,' which he left burning in the
place. The young fowl, so far from
being avcrse to the odor of the narcot-
ic, was inclined to try it's taste as well
as it's smell, and had in few days
time consumed so much Ecaporal' that
its flesh was not only whitened, but
absolutely "nicotinizcd" with poison.
10 it as it stood-probably in rather
stupid state-upon its perch entered
one night an adventurer named Car
rouge, who, after belonging to con-
fraternity professional chicken stcal-
ers, had started q business of his own
at CLAIMANT. The precious bird was
carried of, plucked, cooked and eaten,
and a short time after breakfast the
thiefwas seized with violent and intol-
erable pains. Herushcd to the doctor,
needless ofthc necessity which would
arise Of disclosing his nocturnal csca-
pade. He was found to have been
poisoned by the nicotine contained in
the flesh of the fowl, and was with
some difficulty saved from death. Flo
will now be tried for thieving.--Loa-

The New York Police ROughs


Scarcely week passes without some
fresh case Of brutality or crime by New
York policemen. The record ofoffences
by police officers during the past few
months embraces almost everything
short of murder. 1t is no excuse to
say there must be some black sheep in
every flock. There ought not to be a
single bad or unfit man on the police
force, because every member of it is ap-
pointed, or ought to be, for his good
character and freedom from bad habits
and associations. If saloon loafers,
rufians and criminals get upoH the
force, the fault is with the Commission
ers who appoint them. We believe
that a considerable majority of our
policemen are reputable citizens who
discharge their hard duties conscien-
tiously and we'll, but everybody knows
that there are men wearing the blue
uniform of very different stamp. II
the Commissioners have any regard for
their own credit it is time they reform
ed altogether their methods of selecting
new men to fill vacancies, and put into
operation on the old men a vigorous
wedding out process. The public is
fast reaching the conclusion that the
force is badly demoralized and that the
only way etfectually to reform it is to
begin at the head. The Commissioners
would do well to bestir themselves ii
they do not want this opinion to gath
or force.

English Ladies' Want of style.

Lucy Hooper has often given the
English ladies a severe castigation for
their want of Style" She goes for
them again in recent letter in the
Baltimore "Gazette:"
"Shade Of our ancestress Eve, surely
you wore your leafen kirtle with more
style and grace than do these, your
British descendants, their tie-backs
and jackets. What is the matter with
the women! They are clothes blind
stone-blind evidently, as some unfor.
tunates are born color blind. The
more they try to dress the worse they
fail in the attempt. Lately, at a splen-
did London ball, lady appeared in
costume Of gray and black silk and
cashmere, with high neck and long
sleeves, and with a magnific ent dia-
mond necklace clasped around her
threat. Another lady at the same en-
tertainmsnt, had on a white satin
dress, cut low in the neck and long
sleeves reaching to the wrist, and very
much putfed and slashed at the shoul-
ders. 1t is yet too early in the ason
for the fashionable garb of sealskin
jacket worn with muslin dress, to be
visible; or for that othe touch Of elegance
a muslin dress over woolen petticoat.
But there are plenty of thingsto be seen
that are wild aud wonderful, especially
to a Partisan eye. And, oh! the head
gear-such hats and bonnets, big as a
bushel basket, and all bushy with
worn we'll cooked down over
the nose!"

FAITHEUL UNTO DEATH.

When Pompeii was destroyed, there
were many buried In the ruins of It,
who were afterwards found in different
situations. There were some found in
deep vaults, as II they had gone thither
for security. There were some found
who were in thestreets. as If they had
been attempting to make their escape.
There were some found in lofty cham
bers. But where did they find the
Roman sentinel !? They found him at
the city gate, with his hand grasping
his war weapon, where he had been
placed by the captain; and there where
the heavens threatened him, there
where the earth shook beneath him,
there where the lava stream rolled, he
stood at his post, and there, after
thousand years had passed away, he
was found. So let Christians learn to
stand to their duty, willing to stand at
the post on which their Captain has
placed them, and they will find that
grace will support and sustain theiA.
"Talk to me of Jesus" said an
aged Christian when on the banks of
the river that vas soon to bear him
away. "Tell me Of Him whom my
soul lovsth, and Of the many mansions,
where He dwells with His own in
glory, and where I shall soon see Him
Is Hs Is. II is the news OF the Mas
ter's household l long to hear, of the
trophies won to His blessed name, Of
the advancement of His cause, and the
progress Of His kingdom. Do not tell
me of things that are passing away.

INITIATE HIM.

"This one thing | do,' wrote the
Apostle Paul. He was a man of one
purpose. His souls activities and en-
ergies were all bent in one direction
Forgetting the things behind him, he
oppressed toward the mark for the prize
Of the high calling in Christ Jesus"
Pressed, that word fully represents
his singleness OF purpose, and the
earnestness with which to put forth all
his life-power toward the attainment of
greater likeness to Jesus, and more per-
feet conformity to His will. He that
lives like the Apostle, lives in the
higher plane Of Christian life. He has
but one aim in life, and that is to be
like Christ, with heart and soul and
activity all fully oonsecrated to his ser
vice.
