A FRENCH STORY.

A man was arrested for arson at Vile
neuve, provincial French town, and, in
the absence of any calaboose, was clap
ped int the lower story OF the Mayoss
vacant villa, which, having grated win
dows, kept him safe. He had hardly lit
his pipe to indulge in a smoke when
along came stout looking gentleman
with wife, children and maid, who stop
ped to admire the villa. "What nice
house ~ said the stout gentleman. II
should like to buy it," ''Thats easy"
replied the prisoner, from the inside, II
am the proprietor, and will sell at once
provided yon pay cash" The nego,
tiations began, the price was haggled
about and agreed upon. The prisoner
said: "My wife has locked me up and
gone to Paris for the day if you fetch .
locksmith from Joinville, and after an
inspection of the premises the building
pleases you, 1000 francs down and the
rest in three months will conclude the
bargain quarters Of an hour, tho
locksmith opened the door and the pris-
oner had disappeared with the stout gen
tleman's money in his pocket while the
stout gentleman's family congratulated
each other and said: 'HOw nice ltistO

Is rHoRoUcH REMEDY

WITCHCRAFT.-The belief IN witch
craft exists as strongly now in the island
of Orleans, Quebec, to-day as it did in
New England two centuries ago, and the
islanders are regarded by the French
Canadian people generally as adopts in
the black art. A famous wizard was
Jean Pierre Levallee, who was believed
to be able to control the elements and
GET I'D storm with neatness and dis
patch on the shortest notice. An old
legend has it that when all Canada was
in dread in the early portion of the last
century over the approach of the mighty
expedition which had put out from Bos-
ton under the command of Sir Hovenden
Walker. Levallee declared that he alone
could destroy the British'tieet, and that
his countrymen need be under no apdre'
tensions. He built little hut on the
shore, and for three days and nights, ii
is said, he carriep on series of unheard
of incantations. At midnight Of the
third day terrible storm arose, which
swept entirely over the northern portion
of the continent, and in that storm the
British feet was scattered to the wind;
with terrible lose of life, while no harm
whatever was done to the Canadian
coasts. The records of history do not
tally with the island legend. but it il
still firmly believed that Levallee raised
the storm which destroyed the fleet, ant
saved the colony to France.

Shreveport Standard: A friend, ami
mated by a laudable desire to relieve our
ignorance, informs rs that the Radicals
call the Democrats "Bourbons" because
somebody Whose name he had forgot
ten) once said that the BourbOns learn
nothing and forget nothing. This is in
deed somewhat like the Democrats.
They will never forget the glories which
crowned the Republic during the sixty
years almost uninterrupted reign Of the
Democratic party, nor will they ever
learn to rob and plumber the people, IN
der pretense of governing them. as the
Radicals have invariably done, both in
Federal and State governments, evel
since their accession to power.

THE COUNTRY BOYS.

'The bows are coming home tomorrow,
Thus our rural hostess said;
While Lon and exchanged quick glances
Full of mingled fear and dread.
Had we ht}ter come for quiet
Hither fled the citys noise,
But to change it for the riot
OF those horrid country boys
Waking one with loud hallooins
Early every summer day,
Shooting robbins, teasing kittens,
Frightening the wrens away,
Iwrote these lines one happy summer;
To-day smile to read them DER,
Remembering how with anxions faces
We watched all day the opening door.
They came, the boys" six feet in stature,
Graceful, easy, polished men;
Vowed to Lou, behind my knitting,
To trust no mothers work again.
For boyhood is Il thing immortal,
AS each fond mother will agree;
And SONS are boys" to her forever,
Change as they may to you and me.
Now by the window, still and sunny,
Warmed by the rich October glow.
The dear old lady waits and watches;
Just as she waited years ago.
For Lou and are now her daughters
We married those two country boys,
In spite of all our sad ferebodings
About their awkward ways and noise
Lou spriugsup to meet football,
list no more for coming feet
Mother and / are waiting longer
For steps ON Beulah's tolden street
But when she blesses Lous beloved,
And seals 1t with tender kiss,
know that loving words goupward;
Words to another world than this.
Always she speaks in gentle fashion
About my boys"-she always will;
Though one is gray and one has vanished
Beyond the reach of time or i'll.

The maddest man in Nebraska IS q
saloon keeper at Lincoln. He had been
buying lottery tickets, and some loafers
"put up a job" on him by publishing a
fictitious telegram in the local paper
that the number held by him had drawn
a SIS, 900 prize. His bar wasfree for the
entire day, and all the loafers in town
got drunk at his expense. 1t was avery
difficult matter to convince him that he
had not drawn the prize, so strong was
his faith in newspapers, but ne will
never again believe word he sees in
print.

DISP0SSESSING A WIDOW

81 have mind to put up job on your
client. Truesdell," SAID Charlie Monier to
his law partner, Sam Norton.
III have observed that you were be-
coming demoralized lately, but did not
suppose you would be ready to sell out
client" replied Norton. "Let US know,
however, what the job is, and if that has
any innocent look perhaps I will go in
for chances and shares"
Allen Truesdell, against whom this plot
was forming, had been in the hands of
those lawyers only a few weeks. He had
lately come from another part OF the
State, and had been buying through them
valuable paper mill property, located
on the river few miles below the city.
Monier g. Norton had been his attorneys
on the transaction, and had realized a
handsome professional fee. In connec-
ton with that business there had also
been some collateral transactions
through which an overdue mortgage OF
eleven thousand dollars had come into
the hands of their client. The property
held by the mortgage was a handsome
homestead belonging to widow lady,
Mrs. Trowbridge, younger at least not
more than thirty-two-and very beau
tiful woman.
Mr.. Truesdell had not yet seen the
property or its owner. The mortgage
had been taken on the assurance O.
his attorneys that the security was
ample.
The lady's deceased husband, Charles
Trowbridge, had died suddenly three
years before, and left considerable rea
estate in badly entangled condition
He had been bold, ambitious operator
and not very prudent; made new pur
chases continually with money raised b.
mortgaging anything on which a mort
gage could be placed, until even TIN
family residence, the property of hi
wife, had, by her consent, reluctantl,
obtained, became involved to the eXten
of more than half its real value.
Mrs. Trowbridge had one child living
her little boy, Ruby, now six years old
and for his sake she had been doing he
utmost to save what she could OF tn
property her husband had left, and sh
managed so successfully thus far tina
when sale was inevitable she had bee
able to ettectit herself, and not leav
that ceremony to be performed by tn
sheriff.
The reader has probably suspected b
this time that the job those lawyers wer
preparing to put Oh their client was nc
likely to be very serious or damaging
they had learned from incidentalremars
of his, that he had been wldower fe
several years, and had small family
two little daughters and his younge:
sister also maiden aunt OF his decease
wife, who was managing his family a

"The Trowbridge property" said n
honier to his partner, ::'willjust suit OF
client for residence, and the right al
easy way for him to get it will DO f
him to bid it in under foreclosure sal
and then disposssss the widow"
"a charming idea," said Norton, ''b'
of course he must see the property in Il

Governor and Council.

The Eastern Ar.u, and Boston Globe of
las, week PRINT dispatches from Augusta
containing a repetition Of their old game
of misrepresentation Of the relation between
Governor P.al>ted and the Council. The,
state that the Council, at Its meeting on the
2Uth inst acknow .edged the i.icgaiily Of
their session Of Aug. -, by advising the
Governor 70 draw hi, warrant for 5000 10
favor u the Reform School, etc.
The simple facts are Al the last meeting
tie Council advised the Governor TO draw
his warran, for $1,000, beng the balance of
the 5000 appropriated by the legislature
for the Reform School. Al their "so-c4lled"
meeting Of TIE 18th Of August. they author
izel INN to draw his warrant for 5000 Of
the 5000 and also for 500 900 in favor OF
the State Treasurer. and have not receded
from their position that the Aug. 18th ,es-
sion was legal. They did no, report their
authorization for either the $4,000 or the
$4,000 given on Aug. Is. All they did
was 10 advise the warrant for the $1,000 on
which no action was had on Aug. Is. Al
their last session they proceeded entirely
upon the ground that the former meeting
was legal.
As 10 the fling that the governor cavalier
ly informed the Council that when he wished
their services he would inform them. it is as
dishonorable and untrue as the above state
ments. After mutual and courteous consul
tation, il was agreed between the governor
and council that, in the uncertainty which
exists as to when business would require a
session, it would be left for the governor
and council to determine when il would be
advisable for the governor to call session.

first to refute the nature and discourteous I'M

The Postmaster Generals Term.

In connection with possible Cabinet
Changes, the following section of the Re
vised Statutes excites considerable comment /:
SIC. 3oS. There shall be at the seat of
government an executive department and a
Postmaster General, who shall be the head
thereof, and who shall be appointed BY the
President, by and with the advice and con-
sent Of the Senate, and who may be removed
in the same manner and the term of the
Postmaster General shall be for and during
the term OF the President by whom he is ap-
pointed and for one month after unless
sooner removed.
Under this section il is claimed that as
the tenure Of office of the Postmaster Gen
eral does not continue but for one month
after the term of the President by whom he
was appointed, therefore the term of Post
master General James expires BY law on the
18th of October, or one month after the
death of President Garfield, and that a
vacancy will then have TO be filed, either By
reappointment or appointment. Of a sue
eessOr.
