TaE OHIO RIVER.

Buckeyes" especially Cincinnatians,
still talk OF the Ohio as the Beautiful
River. The French so named it-La Belle
Riviere-long ago, simply translating Ohio,
which, in the aboriginal tongue, means
beautiful. 1t matters very little how it
first happened to be called, or who first
called it beautiful, since it is not beautiful
in any strict sense, and would not be so
designated by persoEs of correct taste.
Compared with the Missouri and Mis-
sissippi, which are as ugly as any
streams conveniently can be, it
might be styled beautiful but COM
pared with the Juniata, Susquehanna.
Hudson or Connecticut, not to mention the
Rhine, Moseile, Elbe or Danube, it could
not be so styled with any propriety
Not unlikely they who christened
it had the muddy, monotonous.
repulsive Missouri and Mississippi in
mind. They could not have applied
the flattering adjective to it had they seen
or remembered rivers that are palpably its
superiors in every sort of attractiveness.
When the Ohio is bank full, in the early
summer, and its borders are fresh and
green, it looks very pretty; bnt when it
is low, and its brown bluffs are exposed, as
they usually are, it is not at all inviting.
Hardly two months in the twelve has
it any visible entieement. As gener-
ally seen, it is homely enough. 1t ought
to be beautiful, for it IS not very useful.
John Randolph's old sarcasm, that it is dry
half the year and frozen up the other half,
has not lost its point. But whatever its
value for purposes of navigation, it is very
seldom attractive, for most of the time its
waters are the reverse of clear. To name it
the Beautiful River ia fattery so gross that
a moments reflection renders it ironical

SEATS FOR WOMEN CLERKS. Lon
don Lancet is demanding with pertinacity
which promises success, that shop-keepers
must provide seats for women clerks. 1t
has shown conclusively that continued
standing is very detrimental to the health
of women. Other newspapers are begin
ming to follow the Laact's lead, and one of
them offers the following suggestion, which.
can be recommended to American ladies,
who are certainly not less considerate of
the welfare of their sex than their English
sisters 1T is ridiculous to pretend that
an immense amount of the waiting in
shops cannot be done sitting. After ali,
the public have the matter in their own
hands. If the ladies who enjoy a morn
ing's shopping, would make point of ask
ing the girls who serve them, to sit down
while the work Of choosing and examining
goes on, tradespeople would soou begin to
provide seats. Perhaps it would be asking
too much to expect customer to hand
shopwoman chair over the counter; but,
if seat was not % be found, any lady
with a common sense Of humanity could AZ.

FROM THE MIGHTY DEEr.-The Captain
and crew OF the schooner Eddie Pierce of
Boston, when 800 miles from Sandy Hook
and near the place where the Anchoria and
Queen came in collision, were surprised to
see a tirkin of butter come jumping to the
surface, like a bob that has been pulled un-
der by fish. They could not have been
more successful in multiplying this firkin
if Alladin's Lamp had been in their pos
session, for frkins came to the surface as
fast as they could gather them in, until
twenty seven had been secured. 1t was
then natural for the Captain to wish for
cheese, and cheeses came to the surface to
the number of twenty-four. Two theories
have been advanced to explain the phe-
nomenon One is, that some freight vessel
has been lost, and that through the burst
ing of the hatchways at the time when the
Eddie Pierce was in the vicinity, the pack
ages rose to the surface. Another is, that
the butter and cheese were lost overheard
at the time of the collision. of the Queen
and the .Anchoria, and were confined in
their refrigerators, which were broken up
Y the sea Materials resembling broken
arts of refri ,erators are said to have been
seen.

MURDER IN BIDDEFoRD.
The Body Of a Man Found In
the SacO River.
TESTIMONY AND FACTS ELECTED
BY A CORONER'S JURY.

BIDpEroRD, June 2s. The body of a man
found near Eastern railroad bridge, Saco,
this morning, proves to be that of John Cur
rier Of Old Orchard. Currier was II years
of age and the son of Daniel Currier of that
place. He had been at work in Massachu-
sets the past three years, having returned
home about three weeks ago. A few days
ago John told the postmaster at Old Orchard
that he was expecting letter under an as
sumed name, and requested the postmaster to
hold it for him. The letter came and was
held as requested, but who it was from is as
yet unknown.
A jury was summoned by Coroner Jellison
and the following facts elected: Saturday
afternoon he left his fathers house with a
roll Of something like paper and took the s
o'clock train for Saco. Arriving at Saco he
took a room at the Saco House, where he
took lunch and spent considerable time in
writing He told them there that he was ex-
pecting to meet some one. On paying his
bills he exhibited considerable silver coin.
He went into the billiard hail, requesting
that any one who should call for him to be
sent there. but nothing more was heard from
him. This morning the Waterman at the
Eastern depot card persons pass back Of the
freight house, who are supposed to have
taken the Pullman train, as the body was
found near here. These are supposed to have
been the murderers. The body exhibited
scratches, commencing on the throat and ex-
tending across tie face to the hair. The
head being opened bullet was found near
the right temple. The nose was also broken.
His pocket-book was entirely empty, and his
watch gone, ~ well ~ . revolver which he
carried with him. He usually carried con-
siderable money viii. him, but always in an
inside pocket of his vest. When found his
pocket-book was in an outside pocket Of hi,
cost. This gives color to the murder theory
The body when found lay in about six feet o.
water, the hands clutching the tall grass
from which it is evident he was alive wher
he entered the water. Surgeons state tha
with the bullet wound alone he would have
lived several weeks The jury, in accordance
with these facts, concluded it to be case o
murder.
