Mr.. Spurgeon Rings in a Joke.

Mr.. Spurgeon recently told
this anecdote as he gave out an
anthem: A high chnrchman
and a Scotch Presbyterian MIN
lister had been at the same
church. The former asked the
latter if he didn't like the in
troits." He replied: 81 don't
know what an introit is" Said
the churchman, "But did you
not enjoy the anthem?" He re-
piled: mo, l did not enjoy it
at ALL" 81 am very sorry"
said the caurchman, "becanse
it was used in the early Church;
in fact, it was originally sung
by David" "Ahl" said the
the Scotchman, "then that ex-
plains the Scripture. / can I'M
derstand now, if David sung it
at that time why Sanl threw his
iayeIin at him." This was fol-
lowed by a loud peal of Taught
er, when Mr.. Spurgeon said:
"Now, let us sing the anthem" :"

A Strange Story.

A curious story is going the
round Of the French papers.
Four years ago tailor married
the daughter of an artillery
Colonel, and lived happily with
her for a twelvemonth, at the
end of which period he went for
a few days to Belgium on busi-
ness. On his return the wife
was nowhere to be found; but a
month later the tailor and his
friends recognized her Gas they
lmagined) in the corpse of a
young woman who had been
picked up at Auteuil. Unable
any longer to continue in Paris,
the tailor went TO New York,
where two years afterward, he
married again. In the month
of January the new couple came
to Paris, and rented an apart
ment in the Avenue Friedland.
Last Wednesday, as the tailor
was walking the Champs Ely
sees, he saw a lady who looked
marvelously like his first wife
driving in a handsome equipage,
and, hiring a cab, he followed
her to a hotel in the Avenue
|D'Eylau. There an explanation
took place. 1t was. indeed the
first wife, who declared that
she had been Kidnapped and
kept in ignoble seclusion for
three months by a man whose
name she had never been able
to ascertain. When free, she
had learned to her sorrow that
her husband had gone to Amer
lea, and not daring to return to
her relatives, she had entered a
Dire s s-maker's establishment,
and so on. Inquiries are now
beng set on foot i'll order to dis
cover, if possible, who the kid
napper was.

me. / jumped for the door
The halfway was empty except
for my two people. AS they
clapped eyes on me both bounc-
ed for the front door. Bnt / was
too quick for them. l got him
by the throat, and, though she
fell on me like a tigress to aid
him, | held my own. When the
fight was over and both were Sc
cured, my little old man had be-
come, by the loss of spectacles
and wig, a lusty young thief with
ciose-cropped hair, whom / rec
ognized at once as Jerry SIank,
as we called him. His woman
had all the plumber about her.
When the search had commenc-
ed she had quietly dropped it IN
to the coffin done up in hand
kerchief, which she had found
time to wrap it in unobserved.
So the corpse was made to help
rob it's friends.
"The growing rage for bric-a-
brac has in the last year or two
made every high-toned New
York parlor a sort of museum
of valuable pottery. These the
funeral thieves never leave be-
hind. They are light and small
enough to be carried easily, while
they are almost as valuable as
jewelry, and quite as easy to
sell. In fact, however, there is
nothing stealable that he won't
|freezeto. All is fish that comes
to his net from a diamond ear
ring to a majolica match box. "
The funeral thief has grown to
be SO dangerous a menace to the
funeral Of to-day that no cere-
mony OF that sort which is like
ly to attract any number of peo-
pie now comes off without being
under the surveillance of one or
more detectives.
"Only a couple of days ago"
said Undertaken O'Donovan, ''I
got $50 for a funeral on the day
it came off. l went into a bar
room to get a drink, and found
my pockets empty. Some one
had gone through me, and not
only got the money 1 had just
received, but my watch and chain
and some $50 besides. / call
that ingratitude, now, seeing as
their galoots wouldn't have any
one to rob if it wasn't for u.s."
%For you and the corpse, yCu
mean, remarked the reporter.
"That's where you make a
common mistake. People don't
go to a funeral to see the corpse.
They go to admire the underta-
king"

The State Debt Settlement.
Maunh;s Anneal

In August next the people of
Tennessee will be called upon to
express their opinion in regard to
the proposed settlement of the
State debt. The polls Will be
regularly opened in every coun-
lty in the State, and the people
are requested to come forward
and deposit their votes either for
the ratification or rejection of
the terms submitted by the last
Legislature and accepted by the
creditors of the State. There
has been but little discussion of
this question, because the opin-
ion obtained that the people had
generally aequiesced in a settle
ment on the basis of fifty and
four. But it seems the repudia-
tors per Sc have resolved to make
a fight in opposition to the lib
eral terms offered. In another
column we publish a letter from
Maj. w. j. Sykes, which dis
cusses this subject in a spirit of
moderation and Cancellation
which should animate every vo-
er in expressing his opinion at
the ballotbox. When such low
tax men as Gov. A. S. Marks
and Hon. A. S. Colyar, and
such extreme State-credit men
as Maj. Sykes unite in support
of the ratification of a settlement
on the basis proposed, it was
hoped that there would be no
contest, and that the people
would unite and cast a solid vote
for the acceptance of terms so
liberal. Notwithstanding the
factious opposition which has
been threatened and which has
developed itself in a small way,
we believe the people will cast
an overwhelming majority for
the proposition which finally set
ties the State debt and forever
takes it out of the politics of the
State. Maj. Sykes, in his letter
published in to-day's Appeal,
shows the grounds upon which
State credit men, like himself,
can and should support the set
tlement proposed. There is
great indifference in every part
of the State in regard to the vote
to be cast in August. 1t is to
be hoped that a full vote will be
cast, for with a small vote, how
ever great the majority, the pres
ent Legislature might be indis-
posed to act. West Tennessee
will, no doubt, by a large ma
jority, vote for an acceptance Of
the settlement at fifty and four,
but the fear is that a small vote
will be cast, and the Legislature
which is to be convened by Gov.
Marks might possibly regard all
who failed to vote opposed to the
settlement, and hesitate to enact
The necessary laws.

ONLY CONG TO THE GATE.
Like bell Of blossom ringing,
Clear and childish, shrill and sweet,
Floating to the porch's shadow,
With the fainter fall of feet,
Comes the answer softly backward,
Bidding tender watcher wait,
While the baby queen outruns her,
"Only going to the gate"
Through the moonlight, warm ard scent
ed,
Love to beauty breathes sigh,
Always to depart reluctant,
10th to speak the words, good-by;
Then the same low echo answers,
Waiting love of older date,
And the maiden whispers softly,
''0nly going to the gate."
Oh, these gates along our pathway,
What they bar outside and inl
With the vague outlook beyond them,
Over waves we have not been.
How they stand before, behind usi
Toll-gates some, with price to pay;
Spring gates some, that shut forever;
Cloud-gates some, that melt away.
So we pass them going upward
On our journey one by one,
To the distant shining wicket
Where each traveller goes alone
Where the friends who journey with us
Strangely falter, stop and wait;
Father, Mother, child or lover,
''Only going the gate"

Too Late.

The following incident took
place in Washington, Texas.
The jury of a circuit court, be-
fore whom a miserable wretch
had been tried, returned ver-
dict of guilty" and suggested
the "whipping post" The court
then adjourned for dinner. I'm
mediately after dinner the de-
fendant's counsel without con-
sulting his unfortunate client
moved for a new trial and COM
menced reading the motion.
"IIold on!" whispered the
client, pulling at the coun-
sells coat tails. ''Don't read
that!"
"Let me alone," muttered the
lawyer, irritably, 'I'll attend to
you when I've read the motion. "
"But / don't want you to read
the notion" whined the agita-
ted culprit.
'tDon't want me to read?
Why not? What's the matter?
I'm going to get you a new tri-
all"
"Bnt I don't want a new
trialr exclaimed the wretch.
"Don't want one? Why not?"
returned the other heatedly,
frowning from under his eye
glasses.
"'Cause its too late," urged
the client. "While you were
all ont to dinner the Sheriff
took me out and whipped the
very hide of off me.
The motion was summarily
Withdrawn.
