 queer old miser had laughed while he pocket
 ed it, and seemed to say, No danger of my keeping thisi" He did keep it, however, and when he died 1t was found among his papers, so that young Syre is the debtor for 6O,OO0 forins to the heir or heirs of old Ott, and not to his own father, as he had supposed, for old Syre died just one month before Ott, the millionaire, and the will provided for old Syre alone and never mentioned his heirs All persons related to the deceased million aire were therefore at liberty to prove their claims, and the rich legacy, which is at pres ent still in the hands of the authorities, will be divided among them. The Syres are out of question, and the eldest son, with that claim of 60,00O forins upon him, has gone mad. The number of persons that have all ready applied for the heritage is immense. Old Ott had at one time made will in which were contained legacies for all his friends, small or great but of course this was an- nulled when he named Syre his sole heir. Then @ number of unimportant dispositions were found on small slips of paper, and among other things was a prayer for a quiet funeral and desire for certain dress-coat he wished to wear in his grave. Now some of his relations in Bavaria have asked if at the time of his funeral that coat was searched thoroughly, and when the answer was in the negative they demanded that the grave should be reopened and his coat examined closely for a possible will This is a decidedly novel and not very pleasing addition to the curiosities connected with wills. Must dying million aires leave directions that their grave clothes be thoroughly searched before they are bur jed in order to secure undisturbed rest for their remains

Our Town Pumps.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL COURIER:
 All npersons and associations whose attention may be directed to measures for the preven- ton of crime may do well to remember that to keep our public well and our town pumps in good order and condition, may have some thing to do with their own personal welfare. And such motive, though it may be vastly inferior to patriotic regard for the public veal, will be more likely to actuate some peo- pie The public wants their help, and every citizens help, without regard to motive. Our town pumps, when well connected with good public wells, grand temperance institu- tions, at all times, and especially in heated term like the present. We invite immediate attention to the condition of the Broadway pump. Should any part of the old pump committee be delegated to see pit, it is respect fully suggested that better man be substi- tuted for that member who proclaimed it as not a part of his creed to believe in water as a drink anyway.

 bois, " said young Captain (now the oldest surviving officer, so terrible had been the havoc), hoping by this means to stop the reckless man from rushing upon certain death. Remember what the Colonel told you-that even if he were among the wounded, no one must go out to pick him up."
 T can't help that" answered the soldier, laying down his musket and tightening the straps of his cross-boots ssCaptain, report Private Dubois for insubordination and breach of discipline. I'm going out to bring in the Colonel"
 And he stepped forth unfinchingly into the deadly space beyond.
 They saw him approach the spot where the Colonel lay; they saw him bend over the fallen man, shielding him from the shot with his own body. Then he was seen to stagger suddenly, as if from blow; but the next moment he had the Colonel in his arms and was struggling back over the shot-torn ground, through the dying and the dead. Twice he stopped short, as if unable to go farther; but on he came again, and had just laid his off cer gently down inside the battery, when, with his comrades shout of welcome still ringing in his ears he fell fainting to the earth, covered with blood.
 By the next morning Colonel Lasalle had recovered sufficiently to amaze the whole regiment by putting under arrest the man who had saved his life5 but the moment it was done, the Colonel mounted his horse, and rode off to headquarters at full gallop. In about an hour he was seen coming back again. side by side with short, square-built man in gray coat and cooked hat, at sight of whom the soldiers burst into deafening cheers, for he was no other than the Empe- TOT Napoleon.
 ''Let me see this fellow" said Napoleon sternly; and two grenadiers led forward Pierre Dubois, so weak from his wounds that he could hardly stand.

 A sudden spasm shook the ColoneIs iron frame as he listened, and even Napoleons stern gray eyes softened as few men had ever seen them soften yet.
 ''Thou'rt wrong there," said he, ''for I would not give common fellow of thy sort for twenty Colonels, were every one of them as good as my old Lasalle here. Take this Dubois" he fastened his own cross of the Legion of Honor to Pierre's breast. 'I warrant me thou'lt be Colonel myself one of these days"

TIIE VICE PRESIDENCY.

The office of Vice President during MT. Wheeler's term has not been very impor- tant one The Senate has had decisive ma- jority of Democrats, and MT. Wheelers pres ence as presiding officer has had little or no political significance. If however, the Re- pubhcans are victorious next fall the Vice President seems likely to be one of the most important officers of the government, for the success of the Republicans will bring with it a Senate very nearly equally divided between the two parties Indeed, there are good reasons for thinking that the next Vice President, if he is Republican, may becalled
 upon to decide party questions by his vote. The Senate now stands forty-two Demo
 crats to thirty-three Republicans and one fn-
 dependent. The terms of twenty-five Sena-
 tors will expire with the present Congress
 Of the outgoing Senators eleven are Repubi-
 cans and fourteen Democrats. The National
 Republican counts on sixteen Republicans to
 nine Democrats in the twenty-five Senators
 to be elected, and it's estimate is certainly
 within the bounds of probability. It is ex-
 pected to replace MT. Eaton of Connecticut
 with a Republican. If the Republicans carry New Jersey, as they intend and expect to,
 Senator Randolph will be succeeded by Re publican. Thurman is already disposed of. Senator Herman, of New York, will be suc- ceeded by Republican, and it is expected that Senator Wallace, of Pennsylvania will be. It is also hoped that the successor of Senator Mcdonald, of Indiana will be Republican. The Republicans will suf- fer a loss of one in MT. Bruce of Mississippi, who will be succeeded by Democrat. If these changes take place the Senate will stand after the 4th of March next thirty-eight Republicans to thirty eight Democrats, count ing David Davis and Senator-elect Malone with the latter, and the Vice President will then be something more than figure-head
 Under the circumstances, therefore, first class man ought to be nominated at Chicago for Vice President-one who in the event of his being called upon to preside over a Sen- ate equally divided between the two parties would be the man for the place. As the Re- publican says: 'sNo question of locality should enter into the consideration, nor ought desire to placate defeated candidate or his friends become paramount. It is no time to conciliate sections or to make clap trap nomination The nominee should be a stalwart Republican with a pronounced and unimpeachable party record, firm purpose, vigorous intellect and good physical health" Joseph R. Hawley, of Connecticut, answers this description

A DisObedient Soldier.

s'Now, lads, there's the battery; remem- Der the Emperor himself is watching you, and carry it in true French style. The mo- ment you get it, make yourself fast against out again to pick up the wounded, even though myself should be among them, shall be tried for disobedience as soon as the bat ties over"
 So spoke Colonel Lasalle to his French grenadiers just before the final charge that decided the battle of Wagram- Then he waved his sword, and shouted, 'tEn Avant !''
 Forward swept the grenadiers like a tor rent, with the shout which the Austrians opposed to them already knew to their cost. Through blinding smoke and pelting shot they rushed headlong on, with mouths parch- ed, faces burning, and teeth set like a wise. Ever and anon a red flash rent the murky cloud around them, and the cannon shot came tearing through their ranks, moving them down like grass But not a man finch ed, for the same thought was in every mind that they were fighting under the eye of their Little Corporal, , as they affectionately call ed the terrible Napoleon.
 Suddenly the smoke parted, and right in front of them appeared the dark muzzles of cannons, and the white uniforms of Austrian soldiers. One last shout which rose high above all the roar of battle, the bayonets spray of a breaking wave, and the battery was won.
 Where's the Colonel p cried voice sud denly.
 There was no answer. The handful of men that remained of the doomed band look ed meaningly at each other, butno one spoke, Strict disciplinarian as he was seldom pass ing day without punishing some one, the old Colonel had nevertheless won his mems hearts completely by his reckless daring courage in battle; and every man in the regi- ment would gladly have risked his life to save that of .'the old growler," they called him.
 But if he were not with them, where was he? Outside the battery the whole ground was scourged into flying jets of dust by a storm of bullets from the fight that was still raging on the left. In such cross-dre it seemed as if nothing living would escape, and if he had fallen there, there was but little hope for him.
 1T see him p cried tall grenadier, He's lying out wonder, and alive too, for I saw him wave his hand just now. I'll have him here in five minutes, boys, or be left there beside him.

 For upward of twenty-five years Dr. Light hill has been at the head of an extensive met ropolitan practice, devoted exclusively to the relief and cure of those important ailments, and it is with pardonable pride that he refers to the extraordinary success which attended his efforts. His recent discoveries are Of the highest practical importance, rendering treat ment so effectual that relief is experienced at once, and permanent cures are sften effected in the most stubborn and aggravated cases and it is one of the happy features of his practice that the applications cause neither pain nor distress, and can be readily admin istered to the most timid or nervous person A candid opinion will invariably be given as to the possibilities of a cure, and no case will be accepted for treatment which does notpre- sent reasonable chance for success.

From MT. Richard Case, of Canton,
 COnu.

For the past twenty years I was afflicted with Catarrh, which affected my throat to such an extent as to make my life misery I would wake up at night with sense of suf- location, as though some one was strangling me, expecting every moment to be my last My suffering was so severe that I was afraid to go to bed, and often did not dare to- Ten years ago my hearing became also impaired from the effects of catarrh and gradually grew so bad that of late it was quite difficult for me to hear. Two months ago I placed myself under Dr. LighthiIrs care, and there suit of his treatment has been truly wonder full The trouble in my throat is completely removed, sleep and breathe comfortably as a baby, my hearing is restored, and my health has so much inn proved that I feel like a new man. Tn fact such a change for the better has been wrought in my case that thank God daily from the bottom of my heart for bringing pr. Lighthill to Hartford and for directing me to him. I am 64 years of age and have lived in Hartford county nearly all my life, and if the blessings and prayers of an old man are of any avail, the happiness and pros perity of Dr. Lighthill is assured.

 Pastor Congregational Church, East Ha-
 ven, Conn.
 It affords me great pleasure to add my tes- timony to that of others in favor of Dr. LghthilPs success in the cure of catarrh. His treatment of my wife has proved so ben eficial that I cheerfully recommend him tothe confidence of the afflicted. The catarrh in the case of my wife was of long standing and in it's worst form. against which many remedies had been tried in vain. The very first treatment applied by Dr. Lighthin per manently removed some of the most trouble some features and the results ever since have been of the most gratifying character. Our people may congratulate themselves on hay ing at their command the services of a physi- clan so skillful as Dr. Lighthill in the treat ment of that troublesome disease, catarrh.

 Hartford, Feb. Il, 1880. Dr. E. B. Lighthill
 Dear Sir-Prompted by feeling of justice to you and a sense of duty to the public, take this method of expressing my grateful appreciation of the able and skillful manner in which you treated my wife for Catarrh. When placed her under your professional care she suffered so severely that she could scarcely obtain any rest at night, but your first application afforded decided relief and your subsequent treatment has proved per feet success. In the course of my experience I have seen a good deal of physicians and medical practice, but must confess that your method of treatment for Catarrh is superior to anything that has yet come under my ob servation, and in fact is rational and effec- tive that it must commend itself at once to every unprejudieed mind.
 Yours truly, ID. A. ROOD.

Henry Street and nine other plaintiffs joining together sued the city of New Or leans for damages alleged to have been done to their property in that city in September, 1874, by body of White Leaguers, who took violent possession of the State House and other public buildings. The jury rendered a verdict in favor of the defendant. On appeal the Supreme Court of the State has sustained the verdict, holding that what the plaintiffs call a mob "a well-organized body of citizens and patriots, acting under the orders of and in obedience to State government ordained by the people and welding legiti- mate power, and that those citizens were ex- ercising the sacred right of resistance to op- pression and usurpation, under which their dearest rights were being destroyed"
