LEAP YEAR Law.
An Old Statute to Protect Maidsnl
I'm Their Rights.


An Old Statute to Protect matasns
I'm Their Rights.
TPhfladeiphia Reeord.I
In The chivalrous days Of Merrie Eng
land there was enacted q law that made
liberal provisions for young women
troubled with young mer who would
spark, but never blaze into proposal.
In Colonial times this law was incorpor-
ated in the statute books of Penn's
Colonv, and there it still reposes, unre-
strieted in its application to medern cases
of long-drawn-out courtship.
Stripred Of It's almost impenetrable
cloak of legal verbiage and old English,
it is found to contain these provisions
for I've maydns and spinsters," who scek
redress under Eye act of We Leap Year."
Any girl who has sat up every night
until u o'clock since the last Leap
Year, with the same young man, eating
twenty-fve-eent candy, has an inalien-
able right to pop the question. Should
the same girl devote all Sunday after
neon to the same young man, and feed
him literally and frequently during this
period, his refusal to take her makes him
liable to be fined and incarcerated in the
depest dungeon beyond the moat.
If it can be shown that any "maydn
between the ages Of SO and 30 on has for
the said period Of time (vis; since the
last Leap Year) focused her affections on
any particular young man-that she has
diligently sought to keep and hold him
by divers means known to the sex, and
striven to kindle the ardent flames in
his boson,-can, under the provisions Of
this act, drag the said hardened young
man to the nearest Magistrate and give
him the choice of supporting her for life
as her lawful husband or enlisting in the
service of his gracious Majesty the King.

was taken from an ax's stomach short
time ago in that State. The piece is quite
bright, the date, letters and the figure
of the Goddess of Liberty being well
preserved, although the body of the cein
has gradually worn down to almost the
thinness of common paper. Mr.. Dowd
showed the curious coin to q professor Of
chemistry, who said it must have been in
the animals stomach for number Of
years. and that the acids had eaten it in
the manner described. The animal had
been used in heavy work on farm near

Alex. Stephens, Intelligent Dog.
Harpers Young Peeple.J

We are sure all young people will read
with pleasure the following description
of very remarkable dog which be
longed to the Hon. Alexander 81. Ste
phens. This dog, which is mentioned in
the "Life of Mr.. Stephens" was a very
large and fine white poodle, named Rio,
a dog Of unusual intelligence and affec.
ton, to which Mr.. Stephens became very
strongly attached. While Mr.. Stephens
was in Washington, Rio stayed with
Linton Stephens, at Sparta, Georgia, un-
til his master returned.
Mr.. Stephens would usually come dur
ing the session of Green County Court,
where Linton world meet him, having
Rio with him in his buggy, and the dog
would then return to his master. When
this had happened once or twice, the dog
learned to expect him on these occasions.
The ears usually arrived about 9 o'clock
at night. During the evening Rio would
be extremely restless, and at the first
sound Of the approaching train he would
rush from the hotel to the depot, and in
a few seconds he would know whether
his master was on the train or not, for
he would search for him through all the
cars.
He was well known to all the conduct
ors, and if the train happened to start be-
fore Rio had finished his search, they
would stop to let him get out. But when
his search was successful his raptures of
joy at seeing his master again were real
ly affecting. His intelligence was 80
great that he seemed to understand
whatever was said to him; at a word he
would shut door as gently as careful
servant might have done, or would bring
a cane, hat or umbrella. He always
slept in his masters room, which he
scarcely leftduring Mr. Stephens attacks
of illness. In word Mr.. Stephens found
in him companion Of almost human
intelligence and of unbounded affection
and fidelity, and the tie between the
man and the dog was strong and endur-
ing.
"For nearly thirteen years he was"
says Mr.. Stephens, my constant COM
panion, when at home, day and night,
and until he became blind, a few years
ago, he always attended me wherever l
went, except to Washington. You may
well imagine, then, how miss himl---
miss him in the yard, in the house, in my
walks for, though blind, he used to fol-
low me about the lot wherever went.
When I was reading or writing, he was
always at my feet. At night, too, his bed
was the foot of my own. His beautiful,
white, thick coat of wool was soft as silk.
Who that knew him as did could re-
frain from shedding tear for poor Rior'
Of course he was properly inferred, in
coffin, in the garden, and placed in the
position in which he usual y slept with
his face on his fore-feet.

tone concerning the dangerous tenden.
cies Of British foreign policy contained
these glowing sentences of indigpation
"The grand blasts from Mr.. Gladstone's
war-horn should arouse our nation. The
one note is call to make Righteousness
and peace guides Of the nation, instead
Of selfshness and clustering. Will men
hear the calf Alasl 1t is to be feared
that self and pride have greater claims.
British interests are regarded as solid
matters of consideration, while human
ity and justice are treated as mere SEN
timental superAuities." The Times,
which is ever the faithful mirror of the
National mind, says about Afghanistan,
which we have been so wantonly tramp.
ling under foot, Whatever is done must
be done with the sole view to the future
safety Of India No notion of what is
best for Afghans ought to come in the
way. That, is their business, and not
ours. 1t is our business to destroy all
settled government in their country, and,
after ravaging the land, to leave poor
wretches to make such arrangements as
they can. Under such tutors we shall
soon become nation of de-
mons. Time was when high princi-
pie ruled British hearts, and all
parties in the State paid homage to lib
erty, to justice and even humanity; but
now we are another people, ruled by
other lords. Can there by too much
speaking against this? Ought Christians
to be too excited and too eager to save
their country from the evil which now
sits dominant upon it7 We think not.
He who shall be backward when the
time comes to deliver his land, let this
great sin cleave unto him. If he will
not rise to rescue his people from huge
crimes into which her present rulers are
plunging her, he will be partaker in
their sins, and on his own head must
the curse descend"

Forney's Life of General Hancock.

1t is singular fact that the most eulogistic
and exhaustive campaign biography of Gen.
Hancock should be written by one whose pen
and tongue for years have done the most sig
nal service for the Republican party. Col.

tation a graceful and forcible writer and
man of letters is 50 well known both in this
country and Europe. pet OF Republican ad-
ministrations, and most of the time an office
holder for twenty years, has not only severed
his connection with the Garfield crowd, but
has thrown all his ability and enthusiasm into
the campaign for the Democratic candidate.
The most important serv ice of which is a full
and exhaustive life of Gen. Hancock 1t is
destined to high rank as campaign biography
Though differing in politics. the author and
subject have been intimate lifelong friends
and hence Col. Forney has personal knowl-
edge of NEST of the brilliant achievements of
Gen. Hancock and of all the circumstances
connected with them. Added to this, Gen.
Hancock has 80 approved his work as to place
at his disposal his personal memoranda, cor
respondence. official and private papers With
such facilities the work viii be absolutely full
and authentic, the standard on the subject
As biographer, Col. Forney will be to Gen
Hancock what Boswell was to Johnson, Lock-
hart to Walter Scott, or Abbott TO Bonaparte

enthusiasm and carried out with a degree of
ability and grace that will place it in the
front rank of American biographies.
The career of the brilliant soldier with an
army record extending throsgh thirty-fve
