tuition:
Many years ago there was a young
fellow named Bigelow sent by hif
father to Yale College. The father
was very rich, and the youngster liv.
ed in grand style at the University.
Suddenly the old gentleman broke,
and had to withdraw bis son from
from college. The boy, however, felt
the necessity Of an education, and
determined to have one anyhow. He
therefore went to work and learned a
trade as a maclinest. While he was
at his work his old associates cut him
and refused to have anything to do
with him. The Young ladies with
whom he had been great favorite
failed to recognize him when they
met him. One day, when going from
his work he met a wealthy young
lady who had been his friend. He
had his tin dinner bucket on lis arm,
and supposed she would cut him as
all the rest had done.
She smiled pleasantly, addressed
him as "TOm," and insisted that he
should call and see her as he had al
ways done. She said:
"There is no change in you as far
as l am concerned"
The years rolled on. The young
work boy became immensely veal
thy, and is now the Mayor Of New
Haven, with an income Of one hum
dred thousand dollars a year, and
owner Of q factory in which fifteen
hundred men and women are employ
ed. The young girl grew to woman
hood and married. Her husband
borrowed a large sum from Mr.. Bige-
low, and died before he had paid. it,
leaving his family with but little pro-
erty. Mr.. Bigelow sent her, with his
coincidence, a receipted note for her
husbands Indebtedness, and now the
son Of Bigelow, the millionaire, is
going to marry the daughter Of the
one woman who was faithful and true
to the young work boy at college.

A short while after StOnewall Jack
sons death, when the whole army
was in deepest melancholy, an officer
who wished to pass beyond the lines
and had not thought to secure the
countersign, drew from his pocket
book an old pass given by "Old
Stonewall' before his death. The
sentinel lit match, read the pass,
lingering tenderly over the writing
Of his old and much beloved COM
mander. He handed it back to the
officer, and said reverently "Major,
you can go to heaven on that pass, but
you can't pass this post with it."

Several young men were sitting
together, and young lady happened
to approch the vicinity. One ''real
sweet" young fellow, seeing as he
supposed, the young lady looked at
him, remarked playfully, and with a
becoming simper, "Well, Miss.-you
necdn t look at me as though you
wanted to eat me-,
"Oh, no." sweetly replied the young
lady, ~ never eat green's"

MELANCHOLY AND FATAL ACCIDENT
The most melancholy accident we
have been called on to chronicle for a
long time occurred at the residence of
one Of our most esteemed citizens,
Capt. I. l.. Morse, on Wednesday,
the 25th ult. The Captains youngest
child, dear little girl only about -
months old; swallowed some concen-
trated lye, and although every means
to save the little sufferers life that
human Ingenuity could devise was re-
sorted to-, she died the following
morning. Capt. Morse and his wife
have the heartfelt sympathy of the
entire community in their sad be-
reavement.--Sugar Bowl.

"The Archbishop of Tours and his
suf6ragans have addressed to Presi-
dent Grevy a protest against the anti
Jesuit DEGREES, evidently drawn up
by Monsignor Freppel, Of Anglers.
IT declares that the ~causetof the reli-
.gioqs orders is the cause, .of, ,Cathol=
'Acfsm, that the DEGREES are not warrant
ed by, any yeHisti4qggl llawsL that they
would involve inquisitorial searches
into a citizens mode of life contrary
to liberty of dconscience, and would
deprive an entire class of persons of
the right of leading a life held by them
to be essential or conducive to their
salvation. e 1t insists that the Church
has exclusive jurisdiction, over the
forms in which monastic vows are
carried out; that the Bishops and
their focks will be seriously prejudic-
ed by the dispersion of auxiliaries
under Episcopal control; that the
secular clergy are unequal to Adj
vent and Lent missions, and the
management of colleges and seminal
ries; that the authorization, for which
all but the Jesuits are invited to
apply, would be refused, them ;. and
that as to the Jesuits the national
feeling cannothave pronounced against
an order which educated B%ossuet,
Descartes, Corneille, Button, and even
Voltaire, and has comprised SO many
scholars and orators. 1t appeals to
the popularity Of the Jesuits as
preachers, colfessors, and educators;
attributes the hatred entertained
against them to their services to the
Church /; cites the downfall of success
sive Governments in proof of the
danger of letting loose irreligious
passions and implores the President
to spare France serious conflicts"
