4 BRAVE BABY.-A woman who lives
in Asheville, Alabama, writes to the
Egis of that place of the miraculous res
cue of her little three.year old boy from
drowning. The child fell down in wei,
the depth of which was thirty feet. The
mother saw him 90 down. She says:
On reaching the we'll l was just in
time to see him rise to the top of the
water. I was alone, save three other
little children whom sent for help. L
had, amid all the anguish of my SOU,
presence of mind enough to let the BUCKET
down and tell him to take hold of it,
which he did. After some minutes he
let loose from weakness, sank again, ex-
cept his little lead. l lowered the rope.
He ran his rond through ring tied on
for the pur, use of sinking the bucket and
caught the pail, and there he held on for
one and half hours, begging me all
the time in his baby talk to come
down and help him out. ] would say !:
"Hold on, Bobbie." II will" he would
reply. At length lady came to mysas-
sistance, and we took q rope and made a
moose on the end of it and letting it
down, told him what to do. He put his
foot through the moose and drew it up
around his knee. I asked him if he
could hold OH. Hesaid he coul hold on
to the bucket: "Daw me OUT" He h1d.
ing the bucket, the rope around his leg,
1 telling him not to let 90, We drew him
up until could reach his little shivering
hands. Thus saved my little baby from
drowning. Safe to my breast l slapped
his little shiveriug body, and praised God
for His merCias.

A correspondent tells good stor

"A correspondent tells good story
of case in regard to patent on a cor
set, which recently came up in the
United States Supreme Court. The
Judges of this august court are all very
grave and dignifed gentlemen, and the
black silk gowns which they wear add to
the solemnity of their bearing. The
corset patent was delicate subject to
bring into this august court, but the COIL
tending parties had gone to law on the
question as to whether "coutil" was cut
on the straight or bias, and in regard to
the whalebone castings. One patentee
claimed that he had improved upon the
original design; that the first patentee's
corset placed the whalebone in the
casing, and that it had to be fastened
with needle and thread that his pat
ent has the advantage of an invention
which closed up the top and bottom of
the opening. The lawyer who was argu-
ing the case brought lot of the corsets
in court and distributed them to each of
the judges that they might examine the
invention as he explained it, The novel
spectacle was presented of each one of
these gentlemen timidly scrutnizing the
mysteries of the bias and straight, and
pushing whalebones in and out of the
castings. The shrinking modesty of
Judge Strong was evinced by the blush
which mantled his check. III tried to

A YOUTH WHO NEVER SAW A Wo

A YOUTH WHO NEVER SAW A Wo-
MAN.-Meadow's history of the Chinese,
lately published in London, in a chapter
on love, has the following story:
A.Chinese who had been disappointed
in marriage, and had grievously suffered
through women in many other ways, re-
tirep with his infant son to the peaks of
mountain range in Kweichoo, to spot
quite inaccessible to the little footed Chi
nese women. He trained the boy to
worship the gods and stand in awe and
adherence of the devils, but he never
mentioned women to him, always de-
scending the mountain alone to buy food.
At length, however, the in6rmities OF age
compelled him to take the young man
with him to carry the heavy bag OF rice.
AS they were leaving the market to-
gether, the son stopped short and point
ing to three approaching objects, cried,
sFather, what are those things. Look
look what are they ?'' The father in
stantly answered with the .peremptory
order, "Turn away your head; they are
devils ?" The son in some alarm turned
away, noticing that the evil things were
gazing al him with surprise from behind
their fans. He walked to the mountain
in silence, eat no supper, and from that
day lost bis appetite and was afflicted
with melancholy. For some time his
troubled and anxious parent could get no
satisfactory answer to his inquiries, but at
length the young man burst out, crying
with inezplicable pain, ooh, father, that
tallest devil that tallcst devil, father"

as suggested by Mr.. Wolbrecht, would be
a shorter but more expensive route than
by way of Musquito creek. The subject
of this cut across assumes special impor.
tance when it is considered that if the
general government ever constructs a
line of inland navigation near the AT
lantic coast, route across the peninsula
between the Santee and Winyah Bay will
necessarily form one Of its links. Mr..
Wolbrecht estimates the cost of cut via
Mosquito Creek at $67 900, and the cost
of cut from Minim creek at S15S, 900.
By either route he contemplates a cut
fifty feet wide and seven feet in depth at
low water.
Mr.. Wolbrecht's estimated cost of the
improvement of the river on the plan
stated above, including cut across to
Winyah Bay via Musquito creek,
amounts to $1O4,427. Capt Phillips re-
ports, in conclusion, that the importance
of the Santee fully warrants the expendi-
ture of the above amount on the part of
the general government, in view of the
impetus that would be given to naviga-
ton and the rapid development of very
fertile country which would no doubt
follow.-E. 4. G. e., in the NeOs and

A MODERN jacob was recently
told by young French gentleman lthe
son of the Prefect of La Rochell) one of
the strangest romances of real life that
ever came to my knowledge. Some four
years ago peasant boy who lived on q
farm near the town of Clermont- Ferrand
saw and fell in love with the beautiful
daughter of q gentleman of good fortune
and position, be being at that time seven.
teen years of age and the youn&]ady just
sixteen. This new "Claude Melnotte"
was so madly in love that he went straight
to the house of the young girls parents
and demanded her hand in marriage.
The father treated the preposterous prop
position with good natured scorn. "Come
back when you have an income of $40,
900 100000 francs)," was his answer,
'and then we will see about it." The
infatuated youth took him at his word,
and forthwith set to work. Now one of
the peculiarities ofthe town of Clermont-
Ferrand is scarcity of water. There
is no river near, so it relies for its water
supply on springs and wells. Under these
circumstances spring is Valuable
piece of property, and commands rela-
lively high price. So the young peasant
lover set off for an adjacent mountain,
there to search for hidden springs. My
informant said that he had honeycombed
The whole side of the mountain with his
works, constructing at one point tunnel
over two miles in length. All this was
executed with his own hands. he works
from dawn to dark, lives upon potatoes of
his own planting, and never spends so
much as a sou upon mug of beer.
Every Sunday be goes to mass in town,
after which he proceeds to the house Of
his lady love, to ask if she is married or
likely to be. On receiving response in
the negative he plods contentedly home
ward and starts out afresh to toll on the
morrow. This life has continued now
for full four years. Up to the present
time he has discovered three important
springs, each of which he sold for $4,000,
but, though now possessed of what for
man in his condition of life is wealth, he
abates none Of the hardships of his ex-
istence. He has one fixed idea-namely,
to become the possessor of fortune suf-
6cient to eneable him to claim the hand
of the object of his passion. Yet no one
knows the parties even imagine that the
young lady will ever consent to marry
him. She is now twenty years of age,
and is pretty, refined, and accomplished,
while he is course, unlettered peasant,
without even physical comeliness, AS he
is short and thick set, with a broad sto-
lid countenance. What will be thee end
of his dream, I wonder? Will he 60
mad or break his heart the day that he
finds his beloved either married or be-
trothed? Or will he die some day of
priyation and overwork, with vision of
success before his eyes?-Phitadclphia
