A Charmed Soldier.

Ex-Sergeant Ignace Hoff, keeper of
the Arc de Triomphe. in whose honor a
grand banquet has been held ut the
Paris Hotel Continental, was once con-
sidered IL spy by his Partisan friends.
He is now the most popular Of living
French heroes. has been awarded every
distinction and substantial recommends
ton which it is in the power of a thank
full nation to bestow, and is to be pre-
scented with q splendid rifle by public
subscription. But it is none the less a
fact, that when he was made q prisoner
by the Germans at the battle Of Cham
pigny, the runOr obtained currency that
he was only Il Prussian in disguise, who
had found ut last q convenient oppor-
tunity of making good his escape. At
that time, be it noted, the man had been
for more than six weeks shooting. upon
an. average, one German q day, in view
of the crowds of Partisan admirers
brought to the outposts by the renown
of his proves. He had himself received
more than twenty bullets in his uniform,
to the extent Of having six or seven
times to petition for = new suit. with
out ever being wounded. There was in
his extraordinary good luck, rs we'll rs
his unerring skill, something truly won
,derful, which earned for him in q few
days quite q reputation.

Noted Hangmen.

Calcraft, the English hangman justde.
ceased, is represented to have been very
much of a gentleman, and to have car
ried on his CHASTITY duties with all the
delicacy compatible with their proper
execution. For forty-six years he had
been the dread minister OF justice, and
had q greater acquaintance with the
moose and trap than any other man liv-
ing. He entertained a high regard for
his terrible calling, and looked upon
himself as q scientific exponent of the
mysteries ofjudicial strangulation.
The great Samson family were for
generations the official executioners OF
Paris, executing "high justice" on
great and small. Under the special pat
ronage of the government, the members
Of the race were known rs Monsieur de
Paris, in contradistinction to such mere
provincial artists tnat labored on the
less distinguished scaffolds Of Bordeaux
orOrleans. Cladin handsome garments
they assisted at executions, and re.
garded themselves rs somehow involved
in the constitution. The Samson who
executed Louis XVI. looked upon him
self rs a renegade to the loyal traditions
of his family, and is said to have died of
remorse. Nevertheless his descendants
held office under the Bourbons, and an
English traveller, who visited the last of
the Samsons, found him ensconced in a
mug dwelling surrounded by a pretty
and pleasing family, solacing his relax
alton in scientific research, outwardly
at least, a cultivated, thoughtful man.

One Way Begin q Friendship.

Once upon q time all Algiers vas
laughing over an article printed j n Il
local paper edited by Arthur de Fon-
vielle in which Gen. Yusuf had been
am~usingly caricatured rs "Monsieur
Jouiou.h The late Clement Duveruois
was the author, but the editor avowed
his responsibility for it. Early next
morning there was n ring at the Journal
lists door, and the general showed
his Arab face on the threshold, fol-
lowed by IN aid-de-camp. De Fon-
yielle was still in bed.
"You are NJ. de Fonvielle? You
called me Monsieur Joujou.' Wemust
fight" ,
GAS you wish. general. | will send
you = couple of friends"
"Oh! no. none of that; let US settle it
nowhere! I've come to kill YOU"
"Ah! then allow ME to get up and
dress. Where do you prefer tighting?"
"This room will do"
agreed; and if your aid will act rs
second to both Of u.s.
Yusuf drew his sword and motioncd
to his companion to do the same, then
offered the two weapons to De Fon-
viellc.
This one will do" said the journal
list, selecting the officers sword. and
the two men faced each other. 9usuf
had thrown off his tunic and rolled up
his sleeves, showing his brown, corded
arms; his sunburned face had a Wolish
CLEAN of white teeth. Fonvielle re-
membered how his adversary. being in
love with the daughter Of the hey of
Tunis, had poniarded in her chamber
the slave that had threatened to inform
Kasoubah's father, and, cutting out the
blacks tongue, cast it at her feet, say
ing, "Hc will tell nothing" Yusuf
fought like Il savage, with t~iger-springs,
cleaning eyes starting from their
sockets, and cries like 4 jackal at every
motion. AT last. getting in opening, he
made tremendous lunge, missing DE
Fonviclle's heart, but running him
through the arm.
Yusuf dropped the point of his saber:
at would be murder for this to &c, on"
he said, with your arm wounded
when you recover we will resume and
finish it,"
Next morning and regularly every
morning thereafter the general would
put in i'm appearance Mt the wounded
mans bedside. "Sorry to keep you SO
long, general" the invalid would shy,
but have Il little patience and I'll be
at your disposal" Ion, I'm very
patient-vcry patient" the general
Should answer. bow and depart.
At last the journalist was well enough
to leave the house and take the air.
The lirstpcrson he met was Yusuf, who
walked up to him. offered him his arm,
surprised him during the promenade,
never thereafter talked about dueling,
but remained his firm friend till his
death, when in La Liberte De Fonvielle
was able to pay an eloquent and hearty
trihute 10 his mpmOry,

The COstliest OF Furs.

The skin of mustela zibelina. known
as the Russian sable, is the most expen-
sive fur sold. The sibelina is of the
weasel family, and is about the size of
the German martcn; it takes four OF
five skins to make IN ordinary-slzed
muff. The best and darkest of these
little animals are found in Russian Lap
land, Yakootsk and Yenesei. Very few
of these skins ever leave Russia, where
they are almost monopolized by the i'm
perial family and the nobility. A muff
and boa of "crown" Russian sable will
bring from S3OOt TO $3.50. The exclusive
beauty of this fur is it's rich colors, a
deep brown and q jet black. with points
of hair tipped with white; the hairs are
SO fixed in the skin that they a be
brushed either way, and will lie nicely.
The Russian sable is never made uD into
garments in any country except China
and Russia. This fur is too costly to
rank rs fashionable, in the general sig
n%ificance of the term fashion. Only the
wealthy can afford 10 purchase such
costly raiment, and that article of dress
pronounced fashionable must be within
tie reach of the majority of society
lressers. Russian sable is IN exclusive
fur.

Beecher Oh Pies.

The New York Herald has been get
ting the views Of prominent people on
the question whether %pie-eating is in
furious or not; and in the course of his
tour of investigation in regard to this
momentouS matter, the reporter held
the following interview with the Kew.
Henry Ward Beecher:
Are you in favor OF pie, MI.
Beecher?"
GloA,, much. indeed. l think it is
an American institution and ought to be
supported on the ground ofnationality:"
"What kind of pie do you like best?"
"Well, I think q good apple pie is
elysium. And then again. there is
mince. Mince pie! Why, mince pie is
dear to the hearts of men all e the
world"
PIE eaters throughout the country
will be glad of your support, Mr..
Becchcr."
Why? Has pie grown into dis
fvor:?"
Every much so just now"
II am always on the side Of the weak
you know. I have got through with
slavery and the Chinese. and here | am
now on The SlQe OF PIE.
"Do you know anything about how
pies are made?:"
Il do, sir, q great deal. They are
made with a top and bottom crust-a
light, brittle crust, with the very
choicest fruit between. What New
England heart does not swell with
pride when it thinks Of pumpkin pie?"

Il am only being interviewed on the
subject of pie. Just fancy, mother, the
world is turning its back upon pie.
What next' Ahm heaving a deep
sigh. ut is y cold and changeable

They don't know anything about
Mrs. Beecher's pies; that's evident. |
wish she could make pies for the whole
universe, and we should not have any
of this trouble"
Il think, Mr.. Beecher. if people
could get such 4 pie rs that, there would
be Il great rage for it,"
Il haven't the least doubt oft. But
then there's pie and pie the same as
there are saints and saints There are
bad saints as we'll rs good saints, and
am told there is some very bad pie.
Who is it that is so much down on
pie?"
We'll, Mr.. Beecher, the theatrical
people have abused it %roundly."
Have they, indeed? l am sorry to
hear that. You may be sure they have
fallen in the way of some bad pie or
they would not be so unjust. / only
wish they could all come here and par
take Of the real thing and be converted
into the rue fold of pie. l mean right
down, regular ~pie-no pudding. You
can't humbug me with puddings. That
would be delightful. And now Ameri-
can pie is in disrepute. Alas, poor pie"

Two PrOpOSed New States.

The Territory of Dakota contains as
much area rs Illinois, Indiana and
Ohio, and more than twice that
of Minnesota. The land there is not
hampered by railroad grants, and as to
the eastern section cf the Territory, it is
fertile and would seem to compare favor
ably with The best wheat growing Sec
ton Of the country anywhere. Tie re-
suit is that settlement has been rapid.
The settlers arc intelligent reading men
and women, who have carried into the
Territory money enough to start them
selves comfortably. Railwaysar rapidly
being built, and there are now no less
than six main lines being constructed
The James or Dakota river runs from
north to south through the whole extent
of the new State. and enters the Missouri
river ut the southern boundary. The
railroads cross the State and this river
from east to west. The Milwaukee and
st. Paul railroad and the Chicago and
Northwestern railroad will be completed
10 the Dakota river by January next.
The Hastings and Dakota, the st. Paul
and Sioux City, the Southern Minnesota
and the Northern Pacific are all rapidly
pushing westward through Dakota.
These six parallel railways cross the
State ut convenient distances, giving to
Dakota Il system of transportation and
n facility of reaching market not sur
passed by that of any State in the Union.
The population of the Territory is sup
posed, in the absence of definite infor-
nation. to be about 100. 000. If the
State should be divided properly the
eastern half would comprise population
sufficient to warrant its becoming a
State, and the mining region could be
erected into another State. With their
fertile and easily titled land, there would
seem no reason why this people should
not set up for themselves. The propo-
sition to divide the Territory is being
earnestly mooted. little division should
be made, say on the tor:y-siXth parallel,
jamestown, on the Northern Pacific
railroad, would be about the center Of
the new State. and in Ill probability it's
capital.-Prairie Farmer.

1.-The Simplicity" is not n very happy
name for a society. The members run
a great risk of being called simpletons.
Still the members Of the Simplicity So
ciety in Lelpsic are much more sensible
than simple. They are ladies, and they
have sworn an awful oath-at least it is
presumed soto oppose extravaganza
in dress and feminine "fXin's" in gen.
cral. The oath must be a terrible one if
1t manages to keep Il number Of women
true to their heroic purpose. They will
never wear trains. laces, false hair or
double skirts. Patterns of simple
dresses arc plainly trimmed, although
fashionable bonncts are worn, and ccr-
tain dressmakers have agreed to con-
form to these patterns in working for
the members ofthc society. Detroit Free
