RecOllcct that Old John Robinsons
circus will exhibit here next Monday.
This great combination has reached q
standard for excellence that no other
concern ever approached, and tLis year
Old John seems to have excelled even
himself. We We're astonished, while
reading in the Cincinnati papers about
the immense outlay he made last winter
for additions to his mammoth show. To
forty cages and dens of rare animals
and wild beasts of almost every kind he
has added giratfs, an immense rhinoce-
eros, giant ostrich, sea lions, school of
seals, the largest herd of performing
elephants in the world, Asiatic and Afri-
can lions, forty ponies, sixty ring horses
and a little community Of people for
different lines of duty. In fact it is be-
wi|dering to an ordinary mind to even
contemplate the gigantic proportions of
this vast collection of all that is beauti-
ful, startling end instructive. Every
man, woman and child for miles around
should witness this exhibition, and
should be in town to see the magni6.
cent Street Parade. Remember the day
and day. and come to tho show.

seemed to satiate the vengeance OF. tho
two families, and for more than year
nothing was heard of the feud. In the
winter of 1873, however, it again broke
out andragcd as tiercely as before. The
elder Poinsett was shot while at work
stalking out some cotton land for early
spring planting, and Frank was badly
wounded, but escaped with his life for
the second time. Young Jacob Kissee
was shot dead when coming from town
to avcnge the taking-otf of old man Poin-

was evenly balanced. The Kissees now
decided on a terrible revenge. Frank
Poinsett and Laura Kissee, strange as
it may seem, still clung to each other
and vainly sought to stay the strife.
But they were powerless; and he
persuaded the girl to marry min secretly.
The ceremony was performed at An old
school house, one
DARK AND RAINY NIGHT,
the pair intending to start next day for
Taxas. After the marriage they sepa-
rated, and as Laura was going home
through the darkness she was mistaken
for Frank and shot. The Kissecs had
found out about the contemplated mar
riagc, and had thus decided to prevent
its consummation. The cries of the
brave girl told the assassins of
THE TERRIBLE MISTAKE
they had made and she was carried
home (for she had not been killed),
where for months and months her life
trembled in the balance. Laura rccov-
cred, but this accident for long time
stayed further bloodshed. With the
exception of the family physician,
knowledge of the affair was confined
solely to the families Of Poinsetts and
Kissees. The girl explained that she had
shot herself while
''FOOLING WITHA PISTOL"
and the uninitiated were satisfied with
the explanation, HOstilities were soon
resumed. The Kissees now ooncen-
trated their efforts to slay Frank Poin-
sett; but his wife, though prisoner in
her fathers house, managed to warn
him Of danger. They sought to snare
him, bnt she thwarted them. They
tried to bribe her to betray him by ap-

Cheating the Coolies,

RAsCALLY IMMIGRATION AGENT
CHEATS THEM OUT OF THEIR saw
INGs.
KINGSTON, Jamaica, May 12.-Ser-
iOus dissatisfaction prevails in the par
i,h Of Clarendon among the East ndia
immigrants in consequence of their hav-
ing in their simplicity deposited large
sums Of money (their Savings" during
the year of indenture) in the hands OF
the local immigration agent and his son
for safe-keeping. II appears that now
when the vessel has come to take them
back to India, the officer and his son are
without the means to restore these sums
The coolies are frantic with rage and
declare that they have been robbed by
those whose business II was to protect
them. The immigration agent seeks to
escape the consequences by saying the
money was given to his son and that he
is not responsible, although they live in
the same house. The son is without
means or employment. The promissory
notes given by him are without stamps =
some Of them not even dated. The Gov
ernor has alarmed large section of the
public by deciding that he will not in
terfere for the protection of coolies, an,
the news soOLer or later will reach TIN
Indian Government and seriously inter
fere with the future importation of COO
lies into Jam ,ica.

Unhappy Marriages.

The truth is that these too frequent
"unhappy marriages" are the offspring
of ignorance quite as much as Of actual
sin or wrong. Fools, and especially
victious fools, have no right to get pos
session of an honest woman's life and
soul which they cannot comprehend,
and the elevated influence Of which they
threw away even more by stupidity than
by wilfulness.
A woman by her sex and character,
has claim TO many things besides shell
ter, food and clothing. She is not less a
woman for being welded; and the man
who is fit to be trusted with good wife
recollects all which this implies, and
shows himself perpetually chivalrous,
sweet spoken, considerate and deferen-
tial. The fools and brutes who abound
among us may think such demands hard;
but they are not nearly as bad as to live
the life of cat or dog, missing the dear
est possibilities of human intercourse.
What right has man to expect hap
piness in house hold who brings no
sunshine into it? What right has he to
look for the graces and refinements of
early love when he violates them by
rough speech, ill-manners and the disre,
gard of those little things upon whicl
the self-respect of wife is built ant
maintained? The cynic who rails al
marriage is generally one and the sam,
with the thoughtless egotist who files in
| to the presence of his wife careless, stub
born and sour-tempered, though he new
er went to his mistress except Oh his bes
behavior.
The fate is horrible which pure an,
faithful girl may endure by encounterin,
in him whom she weds not mere actua
cruelty or injury, but stupid incompet
ence to understand woman's needs
dull forgetfulness of the daily'graces O
life and oblivion of the fact that Will
men have the world women have onl,
their home. These grossnesses of tn
Tasculne ingratitude do not, indeed, OF
ten lead to visible catastrophe nor groy
into absolute tyrrany, but they equal
tend that way. They drag down wife
soul to the point where she must despair
they change the sublime meaning of mar
riage to vulgarity and WEAKNESS the
spoil the chance of that best and finest c
all education which each man obtain
who wins a reasonable good woman 70
his companion, and they cost more to
million households than money or eper
tance can ever pay back.

WE visited the fruit farm of Alexan-
der Pullen, Esq, on Wednesday last
and find that his trees are well filed
with fruit of nearly all varieties. His
peach trees are loaded and most of his
pear trees also, though many of the lat
ter are already smitten with the blight
and show signs of premature death. The
soil here evidently lacks something
which the nutrition1of the trees require
and besider this they are the prey Of in
sects Of various kinds. We prescribed
for them as follows: When insects at
tack the roots, boiling water after bear
ing the roots of earth, and dosing them
with the following recipe: Hard wood
ashes, one gallon; Powdered Sulphate
of iron, 3ib; Powdered Pr,issiate Of
Potash lib; mix and apply 10 the roots
Of each tree. When the trees are sickly
let the same dose be given them-except
the hot water-and when the insect at
tack the bark or the bark shows any
signs of scabbing or disease wash them
in qiuck lime, Alb, washing soda, 2fb,
boiled together in two gallons of water.
This makes caustic wash that will kill
all insects but If applied too strong will
kill the bark of the tree also. Care
must be had in this respect. Pear or
chards in all this locality require this
treatment once year to keep them in a
healthy condition. Mr.. p, has about
60 acres under cultivation and his crop
prospects are excellent. He has about
