BaRconsfield, in Buckinghamshire q
fine old coaching town in days of wore

OF its connection with the name of Eng

are grand IN the eXtreme-scenery both
undulating and wooded meeting the eve
IN every direction. Rhododendrons.
ferns, and MOSES of every description
abound, and one realizes the truth of
Byron's words, "There is a pleasure in
the painless woods"-as in the vicinity
of the far famed Burnham Beeches
The village green is most spacious
and is adorned with FIVE splendid
old trees; and the main street
is about the width of half q dozen ordi-
nary ones. The houses appear TO be
mostly Of Elizabethan date, and the
number of inns would, l think, even
have induced the Rev Mr.. Stiggins to
have partaken Of enlivening refreshment
The church, which is in the perpendicu-
lar style of architecture, stands out most
prominently facing the green. Il has
tower with sun dial on it, and any one
with Alpine propensities has his majestic
form taken care of by wooden ratings
which run round its top; from the cen.
tre OF the tower emerges a dlminutive
spire. Inside the church are deposited
the remains of Edmund and Richard
Burke; the mural inscriptions respecting
them read as followsI
''Near this place lies inferred all that
was mortal of the Right Honorable Ed
mund Burke, who died on 9th Julv
1877, aged sixty-eight years. In the
same grave are deposited the remains of
his only son, Richard Burke, Esq, Rep
resentative in Parliament for the Borongb
of Nation, who died I'd August. 1894
aged 35." On brass in the church is
also the following to Robert Lee. gent
who died 9th April, 1879:
"Contente thy selfe with patience,
With Christ to beare the crosse OF maine
Which can and will thee recompepce
thousand foold with like game.
Let notnlng cause thy harte to quaie,
Launcne out the boote, he ule upp the sailfe.
Put from the earthly shore;
And at length thou shalt obtaine
Unto the Porte that shall RENAME
For ever more"

Edmund Waller, the poet. It is situated
under fine old walnut tree, and has at

Tanner, the Faster, 0utdone.

The details of most marvellous case
of protracted abstinence from food has
just become fully known, though it has
been going on in Forsyth, Ga. for
about two months. Peter Cooley. a mu-
latto, hailing from Anderson, s. c.,
was arrested about June | in Monroe
county on a charge Of burglary and
committed TO Jail to await his trial at
the August term of court He express
ed his determination never to 60 to the
chain gang, stating that he preferred to
starve. He steadily refused food for
weeks, as can be testified to by Sheriff
c. A. King and Deputy Sheriff j. II.
King, who has charge of the Jail and
sees to the feeding of the prisoners. He
always refused to eat, and while it was
then left in his cell the food was always
found afterwards untouched.
He often begged Sheriff King to let
him have a razor, under pretense of
wanting to shave, and also asked the
loan OF his knife, but as Mr. King sus-
pected his intention he was never al
lowed any kind of instrument But he
still adhered to his purpose of self-de-
struction, and after months total alb
stinence from food Mr.. King called DR..
L. b. Alexander in to see the prison.
er to ascertain his condition. He was
found considerably reduced, but free
from all symptoms of insanity, being,
in fact, quite rational and intelligent.
He reads and writes well, and is much
above the average of his race. Mr..
King and DR.. Alexander finally prevail
ed on him to sip little milk punch,
which he did under compulsion. But
he has continued to resolutely refuse all
food, and can be induced to taste only
milk punch or wine occasionally.
Like DR.. Tanner, he drinks water
freely, but outside of that he hasn't
taken enough nourishment in over two
months to keep an ordinary man alive
three days. He has lost about sixty
pounds of flesh, and is merely a skele-
ton. He cannot walk step, and can
only get up with assistance; When ly-
ing quiet he has the appearance of
dead man.-Nacon (Ga.) Telegraph,

House Dresses.

The tasteful fancy at present for house
dresses is also an economical one, as it
consists of a jacket of one color with
skirts of another. Thus a dark, wine
colored or an electric blue basque of
cashmere or cloth may be worn with
black skirts, colored skirts of silk or of
wool, and also with the dark plaid wool
ems Ladies who like to sew on braid
in patterns trim these jackets fancifully,
while others prefer parallel rows of
braid, or else very narrow black passe
menterie that resembles braiding, while
still others prefer the stitched, corded,
or piped edges without trimming. In
stead of the Jersey-shaped jacket, that
with battlemented edges is now much
used, or else the front edges are plain,
and the four forms of the back have the
seams left open to the waist line, and
are made to form four squares, with the
trimming passing all around them.
These house jackets are invariably sim
gle-breasted, though some have
notched collar at the top like that of
gentleman's morning coat, and are
worn with a flat scarf, such as gentle
men use. For silk, velvet, and plush
combination suits for incest use in the
house, the plated vest of Breton jackets
or else shorter Breton plastron is much
used, and brightens up the simplest
toilette This vest is of the silk or the
inexpensive soft twilled satin used for
the skirt, while the jacket is of velvet,
velveteen, or plush. All combinations
are now much more distinct in the way
the fabrics are employed and less patchy
than those of last year, and to do this
the different stuffs are confined to differ
- Il hn
redingote is all of figured stuff and the
skirt all plain. or else the figured stuff
forms the entire skirt and the basque or
redingote is plain. Brocaded goods that
are still considered the first choice in
Paris are inexpensive here because they
are so generally worn, hence it is a
good plan to buy good brocade of
large detached flower pattern for one
part of the dress that is to be made over,
and this may be made up in the redin-
cote style.-Harper's Ba:ar.

A Prudent Georgian.

A Georgia farmer who has eleven
sons seems to have sought in his discip-
line of the young men to so deport him
self that no one in the community can
take offense. For instance, five of them
are married. This circumstance pleases
the persons who believe that young men
should be married, and the unmarried
condition of the six others prevents any
complaint on the part of the unmarried
manageable ladies of the neighbor-
hood. In the matter of religion too.
the old fathers sagacity manifests itself.
Two of the boys are Rardshell Baptists,
two are Methodists, two are Presbyte-
rians, two are Unitarians, and three be-
long to the great church of nature. Not
one of the eleven drinks at all, that the
imbibing element of surrounding So
ciety may not be offended, the old gen.
tleman finds it convenient to stake a
little suthen" now and then. Other
excelIences might be mentioned, but
enough has been said to show that
there is reason to believe in the veracity
of the correspondent who says: ''If any
young ladies want good looking, sober,
working husbands they would do we'll
to call at old man Mes and examine his
stock before they get bit by college
