Eventful April.
lFrom the Yew Tork Times. I

IRON the Kew IOrK 1lmeS.I
The month of April, despite the mild
ness proverbially ascribed to it, has been
a stormy one in history. The LIST is the
birthday of Prince Bismarck and the an
niversary of Gen. Sheridan's victory at
Five Forks, which virtually decided the
fate of Richmond. The general assault
upon Lees lines before that city took
place on the I'd, and its occupation by
the Union armies on the Sd. The last
named day has another and not inferior
distinction as the birthday of Washing
ton Irving. Sir Henry Havelock, the
hero of Lucknow, was born on the 5th.
The 9th witnessed one of the bloodiest
struggles of modern times-the famous
storming of .Badajoz, where fifty per
cent. of the British attacking force per-
ished in the assault. On the same day,
the French Terrorist, Danton, was sent
to the guillotine by his former friend,
Robespierre. DR.. w. E. Charming was
born on the 7th. The 9th is the birth
day of Lord Bacon, the anniversary of
Lees surrender to Gen. Grant, and that
of Admiral Rodney's famous ,sea-fght
with the French Count de Grasse, which
renewed three days later, ended in the
capture of De Grasse himself and the
greatest part of his feet. On the 10th
occurred Wellington's victory at
Toulouse and the great Chartist
demonstration in London, (1848).
Fort Pulaski was taken on the 18th. Fort
Sumter bombarded on the 10Th. The
14th, already memorable for the defeat
and death of Warwick, "the king-mak-
er, at Barnet, during the wars of the
Roses, has acquired wider and sadder
renown from the murder of President
Lincoln. On the 18th, Gustavus Adolf
phus defeated and slew Count lilly. On
the 10Th, the Russian Nihilist, Karako-
zof, made his abortive attempt to shoot
the present czar. Q866), and Garibaldi
landed in Sicily. The 18th Witnessed
the execution of Tantia Topee, one of
the most prominent actors in the Sepoy
mutiny of 1857. The 10Th is doubly ia
nous for the battles of Lexington and
Concord and for the death of Byron.
The unjust condemnation by Louis XIV.
of the heroic Count Lady, the last and
bravest defender of the French power
In India, marks the 22d, which las the
additional distinction of the birth of
Emanuel Kant, " the king of metaphy-
sicians." The 23d, by singular coinci-
dence, has the two-fold renown of being
the birthday and the death-day of
Shakespeare. Onthe 26th, John Wilkes
Booth, the murderer of Lincoln, was
overtaken and killed by the Union caval-
ry, and Gen. Joseph E. Johnston sur
rendered the Confederate army of South
Carolina. The 18th is the birthday of
Russia's greatest military engineer, Gen.
Todleben; the Doth that of the czar him.

Of Napoleon's victories over the Austrians
in 1897; the departure of the Anglo
French armament for the Black Sea in
1854, the treaty by which England,
three years later, forced Persia to restore
Herat to Afghanistan, and Russia's de.
claration Of war against Turkey in 1877.

real world no longer existed for me, and
all the bonds which bound me to it were
broken; my soul, disengaged from it's
earthly prison, was floating in vague IN

can understand; the thoughts of Angela
were revealed to me without her needing
to speak, for her soul shone through
her body like lamp of alabaster, and
the rays of her breast pierced mine.
The lark sang, pale light played
among the curtains.
AS soon as Angela saw it, she rose pre-
cipitately, made sign of farewell, and
after few steps she screamed and fell.
Seized with terror, sprang forward

CHAPTER ii.

did not know what to think of what
I saw, but what remained for me to see
was still more extraordinary.
One of the portraits oldest of all,
that of fat, chubby, gray-bearded man,
resembling remarkably the idea [ had
formed to myself of Sir John Falstaf,
pushed his head out of the frame
with a grimace, and after having, with
great effort, forced his shoulders and his
fair, round belly through the narrow,
gilded border, he jumped down heavily.
He had no sooner taken breath than ne
wonderfully small key; he blew on it to
see that the hole was clear, and then ap-
piled it to all the frames, one after the
other; and all the frames became en-
larged, SO as to allow the figures which
they contained to pass through With ease.
Little doll-like abbes, dry and yellow
dowagers, grave magistrates buried in
large black robes, 2oetdts maadtres in silk
stockings and prunello breeches-alI
these personages presented such an odd
spectacle that in spite of my fright I
could not help laughing. These worthy
folks sat down; the coffee-pot bounded
lightly on the table. They took coffee iu
cups of blue and white Japanese porce-
lain, which run up simultaneously from
the top of secretary, each one provided
with lump of sugar and little silver
spoon.
When the coffee had been taken, coffee
pots, cups and spoons disappeared all at
once, and conversation began. SOoth to
say, it was the most curious converse
ton that / have ever heard. for none of
these strange takers looked at the
other while he spoke; they all had their
eyes fixed upon the clock. At last mid
night struck; voice, the tone of which
was identical with that of the bell of the
clock, was heard saying:
"This is the hour; we must dance"
Ali the assembly rose. The arm
chairs drew back of their own accord;
then each cavalier took the hand of O
lady, and the same voice said:

SALT LAKE
WEEKLY HERALD.

TIE demand for WEEKLY HERALD
has been very pressing during the past
two or three years. The aim of
the publishers will be to furnish a
paper for those people who live
of the main lines OF travel and who
are not accommodated with mail ser
vice oftener than once q week; to
provide a newspaper for those who
have only one day week of leisure
to devote TO the pleasant and proita-
BILE employment of reading; to supply
suitable edition of the HERALD for
sending abroad-a paper that shall
faithfully and honestly represent this
great and growing territory, with Its
many and important industries and
its thrifty, enterprising people; to
make a paper for the home circle and
| family freside, one that shall contain
the news, and at the same time COM
bine the essential elements OF liter

found a constant fund OF instruction,
entertainment and profit, to
all members OF the family
Besides the leading characteristics OF
toe Daily, the Weekly will contain
matter specially for the sgriculturist,
the gardener, the stock-raiser, the
mechanic, the kitchen and the house

feature OF its columns will be the
well-chosen, entertaining and moral
literature, also reports of the Taber-

SALT LAKE
SEMI-WEEKLY HERALD

This valuable and popular edition
OF the HERALD will continue to make
its appearance twice a week during
the year, and the same degree OF
progress and improvement that marks
the Daily will be seen in its columns.
No better newspaper can be found in
the west for those people who are not
blessed with daily mail facilities, than
the SENI- WEEKLY HERALD. It con-
tains all the news, domestic and for
eign, in a condensed and readable
form. The design has been to
make il combine the distinguish
ing characteristics of CONNER
cial and home journal, and we
believe that tlis has been success
fully carried out. The SEMI-WEEKLY
has certainly met with Unexpectedly
high favor at the bands of the people.

LegisIating Against Socialists

Berlin, I9.-The Reichstag, to-day,
adopted 8 proposal of the committee TO
prolong the operation of the socialist law
until September 30th, 1884, and rejected
all suggestions of further extension of
time. 1t was also resolved that the pro-
vision of the law empowering local su-
thorities to refuse the right of residence
to per sons already expelled by them
should not apply to member of the
Reichstag or of other legislatures who
remain at the seats Of their respective
legislatures during the several sessions.
Count Won Emlen berg, minister Of jus
tice, defended the prolongation of the
stste seige in Berlin. He SAID the terror
ism exercised by socialist agaitators en-
dsngered public order and rendered th,
maintenance of martial law indispens
able. Agitation still existed secretly.
