He Forgot the Bullet.

It is but seldom that the comic ele-
ment enters into attempts at suicide. A
diverting exception to this general rule,
is afforded by the suicidal enter
prise of Hungarian engineer, resident
at Temesvar, who, being steadfast vo-
tary of Bacchus, had drunk himself into
so unsatisfactory a state of mind that a
few days ago he determined to put an
end to his existence. Having provided
himself with a pistol, and locked him
self up in private room of hotel IN
the town, which apartment he had spec
tally hired for the purpose, he pressed
the muzzle of the weapon against his left
breast and pulled the trigger. The usual
explosion followed, and the would-be sui
eide fell to the ground, where he lay pa
tiently for several minutes, waiting for
death. Dissolution, however failing to
set in as promptly as he had expected,
he presently arose, left the hotel and
walked home, with view to dying COM
fortably in his own apartment. A little
later on, perplexed by his unaccountable
vitality, he sent for surgeon to examine
s.! the wound. Beyond slight scorching
of the skin, no injury could be detected;
and, while the surgeon was vainly search
ing for mortal hurt, his patient anx-
iously inquired 'swhere the bullet had
lodged?" II fancy" was the reply,
"that you must have forgotten to put it
into the pistol" ''Give me my waist
coat, calculated the intended self-slayer,
and, sure enough, safely ensconced in
the watch-pocket of that garment was
found the missile with which he had de-
signed to extinguish his vital spark.
Sinca thia diacoverv he has omitted
Temesvar, in which town he found that
his rash attempt to kill himself with a
charge of powder and wad had rem
dered him the object of more public
notice, attended by uncomfortable hi
larity, than was altogether agreeable to
him. Iele0raph. r -

The Oneida Communists.

Prof. Mears, of Hamilton College, says
there is reason to believe that the adop-
ton of regular matrimony by the Oneida
community was in good faith, even
though many members had not then and
have not yet changed their opinions, but
hoped, at some future time, to follow
them without molestation. Prof. Mears
was one of the Syracuse committee who
made the movement to have President
Moves of the community indicted He
asserts that there was internal discord,
that "the extravagant veneration for
Moves had seriously declined, and adds
the following narrative: Noyes himself
and his friends became alarmed. The cir
Gle, once so obsequious and blindly
loyal, could no longer. be implicitly
trusted. The alarm rose to a panic.
Flight was decided upon. To insure
against possible hinderances, il was kept
n secret from most Of the family. At
night carriage. containing the founder
and two faithful attendants, was driven
stealthily away to n remote railroad
station. The community, as whole, was
kept in ignorance of his whereabouts. On
the 1st of March last it became generally
known that he had concluded to remain
in Canada, in or near Clifton, in the i'm
mediate vicinity of Niagara Falls. Here
the community, or financial managers of
the concern, rented him a house, fur
nished him horse and carriage, and
provided in part for his living expenses.
His legal wife, Mrs. H. A. Noyes. went
to him, accompanied or followed by three
or four other unmarried and younger
women. Thus begins new episode il
the history Of this movement. Noyes Il

There's Just one thing man can have

Because she laughs, and doesn't care.

Or takes to light the kitchen stove

She never scelds shout the lamp,
Or wants the wick tTihe higher.
On Sundays she is not 40 fine
But what her ruffie< can hug;

And spill the ashes on the rug
The bed is never filed with "shams"-
A thing some women vilely plan
To worry servants half TO death,
And spoil the temper Of man.

Nor rises any ho,rid din

To be quite late when ] come in.

Don't look for mt ney, style or show,
Or blushing beauty, ripe and rare;
Just take the one who laughs at fate
Who laughs, and shows she doesn't care.
You think, perhaps, our household ways
Are just perchanee little mixed;
Or when they get too horrid bad,
We stir about and get things fixed.
What compensation has man
Who earns mis- bread by sweat of brow,
II home is made battle-ground.
And life one long. eternal row?
