How She Fetched Him.

A Broadstreet merchants wife yes
terday gave him the following letter,
with instructions that it should not
be opened until he got to his place
of business: II am forced to teld
you something that / know will
trouble you, but it is my duty to do
so. am determined you shall know
it, let the result be what it may. /
have known for week that this trial
was coming, but kept it to myself
until to-day, when it has reached a
crisis and / cannot keep it any
longer. You must not censure me
too harshly, for you must reap the
benefits as well as myself. / do hope
it won't crush you. The -four is all
out. Please send me some this after
noon. | thought that by this method
you would not forget it." The hus-
band telephoned forthwith for a bar
rel of the best -four in the market to
be sent to his home instanter.

TAEsIbN JUSTICE.
Pension Granted "a Woman
W mo should have been EsecOg.
niZed Before.

WASHINGTON, July 1S.-The bill
just passed by the Senate granting a
pension to Mary Wade is an act of
justice and humanity that has been
too long deferred. 1t authorizes the
Secretary of the Interior to place on
the pension roll the name of Mary
Wade, Of Gettysburg, Pa, who was
the mother Of Jennie Wade, and pay
the said Mary Wade a pension at the
rate of eight dollars per month, To
begin from and after the passage OF
the act, and to continue during her
widowhood.
The bill passed the House of Rep
resentatives the oath of last March.
The same case was before the Forty
fourth and Fourth fifth Congresses,
but its final passage has delayed I'M
til now. 1t is peculiar case, and
the only one in which pension has
been granted in consequence of the
death of daughter. The report in
the case shows that Jennie Wade q
daughter of the petitioner twenty
years of age, was killed by rebel
bullet at Gettysburg, on the Sd of
July, 1868, within the Union lines,
and while she was engaged in baking
bread for the Union soldiers. The
mother was dependent in part for sup
port upon her daughter. The hus-
dand of the petitioner is maniac,
and has been confined for many
years in the county aims house. The
petitioner is sixty years old and has
no property except $50 worth of
household goods and life interest
in small house and lot valued at
$3.50.
In this case no back pay is allowed.
Eight dollars month from the time
the bill passed and that was to-day.
The petitioner has persevered in her
prayer for relief since the Forty
fourth Congress. No additional
proof has been added; there is no rea-
son why her pension should not have
been allowed at the time Of the death
Of her child as well as at this late
day. Congress was little afraid of
it because it was peculiar case, but
being power above all others that
have control in such matters it could
have given the poor woman this small
compensation for her loss from the
date of its occurrence.

Unbounded modesty is nothing
more than unavowed vanity.
The too humble obesiance is some
times u disguised impertinancc.
The reputation of Il man is like his
shadow-gigantic when it precedes
him, and pigmy in its proportions
when it follows.
More evil truths are discovered
by the corruption of the heart than
by the penetration of the mind.
The rich man dcspises those who
fatter him too much, and hates those
who do not flatter him at all
The Imagination of men is often
the refuge of their prejudices.
The sovereign has little mind
who seeks to go down to posterity
by means of great public buildings;
it is to conlide to masons and brick
layers the task of writing history.
The love Of glory can only create
hero; the contempt of it creates II
great man.
The errors Of great men and the
good decd or reprobate should not
be taken in our estimates of THEN
characters.
Theologians resemble dogs which
knaw large bones for very little
meat.
Both eruditon and agriculture
ought to he encouraged by govern
ment; wit and manufacture will come
Of themselves.
Too much sensibility creates UNI
happiness; too much insensibility
creates crime.
What | have been taught have for
gotten; what | know have guessed.
Certain acts can be rendered legal,
but can never be made legitimate.
Life TO young man is like q new
acquaintance, Of whom he grows dis
gusted as he advances in years.
In love we grow acquainted be
cause we are already attached; in
friendship we must know each other
before we love.
A generous man will place the
benefits he confers beneath his feet;
those he receives nearest his heart.
A narrow minded man can never
possess real and true generosity; he
can never go beyond mere bcnevo-
lence.
If you wish to appear agreeable
in society you must consent to be
taught many things which you know
already.
There are many vices which do not
deprive us Of friends; there are many
virtues which prevent our having
any. ! remember having been told
in my youth that the love Of glory
was virtue. Strange must be that
virtue which requires the aid of every
vice.
There are two things to which we
never grow accustomed the ravages
Of time and the injustice Of our fell
low men.
We must learn to submit with
grace to the follies which depend up
on character

the City Hospital the next day and
came near killing himself by jumping
out of one of the windows. He was
then tried for lunacy, and his trial is
remembered by hundreds of his
friends in tile city. He was adjudged
a lunatic and sent to the asylum at

three weeks. 1t was only few days

SATIN FOR SOUTHERN GIRLS.
Lovely Costumes Made in New York To
Be Worn in Dixie.


Be Worn in Dixie.
New York Letter.
Your correspondent has just seen
some notable toilets. A dress made
for Southern brunette was gold
colored satin made in Princesse fash
ion, and draped with silk tulle dot
ted with small flowers. AT the foot
of the dress was a wide box plated
tiounce. and fine plisses of satin
adorned the long train. The sleeves
were of lace interviewer with gold
threads. Most exquisite was cos
tune made for a debutante from
Charleston, S. c., who contemplates
her first season at White Sulphur.
The dress is a short satin of the
richest kind, and is profusely trim
med with pearl lace and passemen
terie. The sleeveless corsage is bor
dered with a quilting of white satin.
With this costume will be worn
cream-colored stockings and cream
satin shoes embroidered in pearl de-
signs. The shoes alone cost S2S, and
the stockings almost double that
amount.
"Now, this" said the modiste, sis
a dress of rare beauty and elegance"
and from a satin lined box she
brought forth an evening toilet of
the most exquisite shade conceivable
of Neapoltan shell-tinted satin, with
an overdress of the rarest point lace,
the latter alone being valued at $500.
Edging the skirt were three rows of
very fine knife-plaitings, and the
graceful train was ornamented with
satin puflings and large satin bows
to match.
Now, can you imagine any thing
loveier?' said our informant, when
displaying a robe of silver blue satin,
fairly glistening with blue jet and
pearl crystal 9arnitures. The panels
of the dress were painted in the most
delicate designs. The long, flowing
sleeves were lined with white satin
and finished with point applique lace;
the corsagc, cut square in front and
back, was bordered with narrow
bands of 'blanc de perle" satin.

How "a vvomnn'sLife was saved

After she had tested the skill of all
the best doctors in Western Pennsyl-
vania and New York, and had paid
over $1,000 without receiving any
permanent good, the limbs became
affected with even tenfold greater
virulencc, not only eating away the
flesh, but attacking the bones be-

face, making her almost blind and
deaf, reduced to a mere skeleton,
