4 fair young German maiden was arraigned
before the district court of Dortmund for steal
watch from a youthful handlcrattsman of
that city. The person she had robbed proved
to be her own affanced lover, who on discov-
ering his loss, had forthwith notified the bort
mund police, without the faintest notion that
the theft had been committed by his be.rothed
bride. Investigation resulted in the discovery
OF the stolen property at pawnbroker's shop,
where the damsel had pledged 1t for trfling
sum When brought to tria. she avowed her
guilt with many tears and sobs, alleging that,
unable to purchase her wedding dress, and be-
ing ashamed to confess her poverty to her fu-
ture husband she had purloined his watch
with the object Of realizing a sufficient amount
by Its hypothecatlon to equip herself decently.
1t Is pleasant to know that this piteous comics
sion was responded to IN gallant and mag
unanimous spirit by the despoiled bridegroom,
who declared the prisoner was and ever
would be his only love, and that he would
marry her on, of hand if the Judge would
consent to set her at liberty" Without MIN
ute's delay, the tribunal annulled the gn-
ment, and the generous lover carried OIL his
liberated larcenIst IN triumph.

Fifty years ago Franklin Oliver bought Of
the government grove of timber in what is
now Livingston county, covering $500 acres,
built log house in Its center, and has lived
there ever since He became noted for eccen'
tricltes, and it is Of him that the story is told
about two Methodist ministers who, having
no money to pay for the lodging and breakfast
which he had given them, were compelled to
preach sermon apiece to him as the sole con-
gregation. Oliver resolved never to allow a
bit of his land to be cultivated, declaring that
he would leave 1t at his death just as he had
found it; but five years ago, at the age of 80,
he suddenly changed his purpose and habits.
From being woman hater, he turned to low
ing the sex with the ardOr of youth. He
wooed several girls and women at a time, and
won their promises to marry him by giving
them pieces Of his land. In that way he has
rid himself OF a great part of his now extreme.
ly valuable property and his heirs, in order to
save the remainder, have had him judiclaly
declared incapable of managing his business.

AbSinthe.

About century ago, absinthe, which
is an extract Of NORWOOD, was pro-
claimed by its discoverer as heal-all, in
much the same manner as the patent
medicine man Of our day vaunts the cura-
tive properties of his nostrums. It was
first made in the Canton of Neufchatel,
IN Switzerland, by DR.. Ordinaire. His
patients took to this medicine so kindly
that the doctor made small fortune. At
his death he gave the recipe to his house
keeper, and she disposed of it to third
party, who increased its sale by distribut-
ing it through the neighboring country.
The recipe, however, again changed
hands, and, although the demand for the
liquor was not large at first, it gradually
increased until Extract d. Absinthe''
came into almost universal use in France.
DR.. Ordinances opinion of the proper
ties of his medicine was either singu-
larly fallacious one, or the art of making
absinthe has been lost, as it is now con-
sidered to be the most dangerous stimu-
liant person can habitually use.

Handwriting and Character!(

You never take pen in hand but|you
are showing something Of your own
character. The very style Of the
handwriting is an element in the
determination Of character. The way
in which man dashes off a letter is
very much the way in which man
uses his voice. There is a modulated
ease in the tones Of the handwriting,
Without protesting to be experts, like
Messrs. Chabot and Netherclift, we
can certainly gather a general idea of
character from the handwriting. a
minister was commenting on a very
strong dispatch in the presence Of his
sovereign. The language is strong, =

visions, has since made other grants,
amounting to 52l, O68 acres. If the
residuary grant is still operative, Of
course all subsequent grants are void.
This is a question to be considered and
decided by this legislature, and upon
it's decision must depend the future
policy Of the State with reference to
the swamp lands. If the soldiers or
phans' and the State Institutions
grants are confirmed and perpetuated,
provisions should be made for explora-
ton, appraisals and sales Of the land,
but if these grants are to be Cancelled,
and subsequent grants continued, then
such provision will be unnecessary.
Only, l,84l, $40 acres Of swamp lands
have been patented to the State, though
there are considerable quantities sur

Back to Back.

A rowdy cannot endure the sight of a
weli-dressed man. 1t acts upon him as
a red shawl upon bull. Some years
ago, as two young gentlemen were going
home from party in Philadelphia, they
were attacked by gang of rowdies. The
youths were brothers. and noted for their
skill in boxing. Standing back to back,
they knocked down their assailants as
fast as they came at them. In few
minutes the rowdies fed. Similar tactics
once saved two English anglers from be-
ing bitten by a pack Of fierce dogs. AS
they were passing a farmhouse, a large
dog, whose barking and glaring eyes an
nounced his rage, dashed at them.
"Catch up some stones and stand
back to back, or he'll worry us, 2 cried
the elder.
Armed with as many stones as they
could pick up, they put themselves III
position and waited the charge. But
the dog did not attack. He evidently
thought the position too formidable for
him to carry by assault. After circling
round the men two or three times, he
returned to the farmhouse.
The anglers, congratulating them
selves on the success Of their tactics.
pressed onward. They had just passed
over the brow Of a hill when a chorus OF
"Yelp, yelp, yelp !" announced another
and more dangerous attack.
'We are hunted" shouted one to the
other; "more stones, and stand firm, or
we are dead men,
Filling their pockets and hands with
stones, the two men again stood back to
back, and waited anxiously the attack.
On came. the large dog. with four other
dogs, all open-mouthed and barking
furiously.
They, too, had their tactics. They
began by circling round the anglers, and
gradually drew nearer and nearer.
A wen-aimed stone struck the leader
OF the pack on the head and rolled him
over. Another stone hit second dog
on the side and sent him out of the circle
bowling with pain.
Then the pack halted, retreated some
distance, and again began to circle round
the men. Sullenly they went round and
round, until, seeing no chance for an as
sault, they went slowly off over the hill.
The anglers went their way, specu-
lating as to the method by which the
large dog persuaded his four com.
panions to join him in assembling his
enemies.

Dangers In Bringing Up Children.

The cruelty done to children by some
parents, as well as BY teachers, g IN
describable. Children arc held to be Of
the same temperament, Of the same
adaptabiity to learn as their parents and
teachers yet the boy who cannot learn
his lessons as quickly as another is
thrashed, or he is degraded in some way.
Grown people forget the intense misery
to which children are thus exposed.
The child's horizon is SO limited that he
sees no remedy to his woes, and his sor-
row absorbs his whole little being.
Fathers, provoke not your children
to wrath, lest they be discouraged. II
the life Of child be embittered the re
suit is shyness and secret aversion.
Even child feels itself wronged, and q
sense of bitterness is implanted in its
heart. We can never think without
pity of parent who lost promising
son by death, and was haunted through
life by his parental severity. $ Ny boy, :
he said to a friend, FUSED to think me
cruel, and he had too much reason to dc
so but he did not know how I loved
him at the bottom Of my heart andnow
it is too late p
We often think when we hear of par
ents beating their children that they
should rather be inficting the punish.
ment upon themselves. They have been
the means of bringing into being the in
heritors of their own moral nature. The
child does not make his own temper
nor has any control while child over
its directions. IF the parents have con
ferred an irritable temper on the child
tits duty on their part to exercise self
control, forbearance aud patience, Sc
that the influence of daily life may, III
the course Of time, correct and modify
the defects of its birth.
But the "child's will must be broken I!
There is no greater fallacy than this.
Will forms the foundation Of character.
Without the strength Of will there will
be no strength Of purpose. What is
necessary is not to break the child's will,
but to educate it in proper directions
and this is not to be done through the
agency Of force or fear. A thousand in.
stances might be cited in proof Of this
statement.
When the parent or teacher relies
chiefly upon pain for controlling the
child's will, the child insensibly associ.
ates duty and obedience with fear and
terror. And when you have thus associ.
ated command over the will of others
with pain, you have done all that YOU
could to lay the foundations Of a bad
character a bad son, bad husband, &
bad father, bad neighbor, and a bad citi
zen. Parents may not think Of this wher
they are beating into their children
their own faults; but it is true, never
theless. There is no doubt that the
command over the will Of others by pair
leads by degrees to all the several stages
Of irritation, injustice, cruelty, oppres
sion and tyranny.
When Euffordius, Of Cologne, heard {
great cry issuing from school-house he
opened the door, entered, and rushed W
like lion, and, raising his staff againsi
the teacher and his assailant, delivered
the boy from their hands. "What are
you doing, tyrant?'' he said you are
placed here to teach, not to kill schol
airs.
