How Macaulay Wrote.

Desperate Suicidal Attempt.

Col. Holman Watts is an Austin
gentleman of desponding turn of
mind, who is always threatening to
commit suicide, when things do not
suit him, but who has never succeeded
in doing so. He became depressed a
few days ago, because his hat flew off
when he .sneezed, and desiring to put
an end to life. he started as usual for
the cistern to drown himself with sui
cidal intent.
"Take off those boots first" said his
wife, who is a matter of-fact kind of a

"What forp" he asked feebly, pulling
open the trap. door.

smiled to woo him to their circle. His
days sped onward, and as summers

amid the light of woman's love and
manhoOd's eulogy, He wooed and won
a maid of peerless charms; being
fair, delicate and pure, bestowed the

him. The car of time rolled on and
clouds arose to dim the horizon of his
worldly happiness. The serpent of
inebration crept into the Eden of his
heart the pure and holy feeling which
the God of nature had implanted in his
soul became polluted by the influence
of the mis- called social cup. The warm

The tears of the wretched agony of the
afflicted wife found no response within
his bosom. The pure and holy fount
of universal love within his heart, that
once gushed forth at tie meanings of
misery, and prompted the hand to ad'
minister to the requirements of the
wretched, sent forth no more its pure
ard benevolent offering; its waters had
become intermingled with the poisoned
ingredients of spirits, and the rank
weeds of Intemperance had sprung up
and choked the fount from whence the

The Flux OF Nations.

Demoresrs Monthly.
At the way at which immigrants are
pouring into the Atlantic ports, there
will be added to our foreign population
this year between 100000 an 100000
human beings. Never was the immi-
grant depot at New York so full. The
Germans are coming in greater num-
bers than ever before, and lately Italy
has been adding to the tides of humani-
ty which are streaming across the At
lantic ocean. Nearly all the immigrants
who intend to pursue farming as a
calling leave New York for Chicago,
at which point they are reinforced by
another stream which comes from the
st, Lawrence, the lakes and the Grand
Trunk railway. Such vast movements
in population have not been witnessed
since the incursions of the barbarians
into Europe when the Roman empire
was in its decline. Those migrations
were necessarily slow, as the armies
had to conquer each country they came
to before the lands could be settled
But the transplanting of nearly one
million people in one year from Europe
to America could only be accomplished
in an age of steam and telegraphs
These invaders do not come with the
hattle-ax and spear; they are armed in
stead with the implements of industry
and are adding to our material wealth
and national greatness. Let them come
Certain evils will develop themselves
in connection with this vast increase
of our foreign population, and it will
be another strain upon our republican
institutions. Many of these immigrants
are illiterate, ignorant, and certain
proportion criminal. But, after all
they belong to our own race, and the
great majority are honest, hard work
ing people. Their coming will add tt
the value of our lands and will increas,
the material Wealth of the country.
