Appllcation of surplus Revenues

From frequent inquiries made at the treasury do

to accumulate in the treasury, when It might bo
used IN the purchase Of the interes-bearng debt.

One rarely meets more touching
romance than is found in the follow
ing old story which comes from
Wales;
ga number Of years ago, some
Welsh miners in exploring an old
pit that had long been closed, found
the body of a young man dressed in
fashion long out of date. The
peculiar action OF the air in the mine
was such as to preserve the body so
perfectly that it appeared asleep
rather than dead. The miners were
puzzled at the circumstance; no one
i'm the district had been missed with
in their remembrance, and at last
was resolved to bring the oldest in
habitant-an old lady long past her
eightiety year, who had lived single
the whole of her life. On being
brought into the presence of the
body a. strange scene Occarred the
old lady fell on the corpse, kissed it,
and addressed it by every term of
loving endearment, spoken in the
language of by-gOne generation.
He was herOnly love; she had wait
ed for him during her long life she
knew that he had not forsaken her.
The old woman and the young man
were betrothed sixty years before.
The lover had disappeared mysteri-
ously and she had kept faithful
during that long interval. Time
had stood still with the dead man,
but had left its mark on the living
woman. The miners who were
present were a rough set, but very
gently and with fearful eyes they re-
moved the old lady to her house
and the same night her faithful
spirit rejoined that of her long lost
lover.

The Pulaski Herald says of the
lynching of Dan Smith, the negro
ravisher, at that place last Thurs
day:
While we deprecate and deplore
mob violence, and while the jury
went to the full extent of the law in
fixing the penalty in their verdict,
yet it must be apparent to everyone
that there is a fault itself in limiting
the penalty of such a crime to inn
prisOnment for a limited term of
years; for if there is a crime in all
the catalogue upon which legislation
should lay its hands, and prescribe
the extreme penalty, it is just the
crime committed on the person of
this innocent and unoffending child
by Dan Smith.

spare the Rod spoil the child.

Is it best, asks a Boston mother,
to move the things out of reach
when we tell the little ones they
must not touch them, or compel
them to let them alone while within
reach? The latter seems the only
way to me to teach obedience.
have seen parents tell their little
ones, while al table, that they must
not touch such a thing, and then
move the article out of their reach /;
then the little things would reach
and pull the table cover until they
got hold of the desired article, and
when taken away from them they
would scream, and the mother
would have to take the child away
from the table. How much better,
il seems to me, would il have been
toilet thearticle remain within reach;
then, if the child touches 1t after be-
ing told that it must not, Jingle the
fingers with a little switch. This you
will not have TO do but few times;
a child will not put its fingers in the
fire when he finds it burns. Widow
ed when my little boy was only one
and a half years old, | felt that a
double responsibility rested upon
me in raising him for usefulness and
tO,meet all the temptations of this
life. Several times have | had to
punish him (hard), for he was a
stubborn child and wanted to have
his own way, and after had brought
him to submit 10 my will l have
gone away and wept myself. And
to-day, as 1 look upon my noble
boy, now nineteen years old, with
out a single bad habit and with
a strong love for mother and home,
! am thankful that / had strength
to- do my duty.
