THE late Judge Black, writes a cor
respondent, had his right arm broken
in eleven places by railroad accident
in 1868, and it never afterward was
ofsmuch use to him. He learned to
write with his left hand after he was
60 years of age, and wrote in the
round, precise back-hand of a pains

Jail at Adrian. He is vicious fellow |
named Barney Archer, Is years old, and
of bad antecedenis and connections.
Paul George, one of the most popular
and trustworthy clerks employed in the
postotlice at Port Huron has been ar
rested for opening registered letters and
stealing money therefrom. Paul con-
fessed to opening four letters, securing
1874. He has always been esteemed as
n steady, strictly honest young man.
His parents are well known and esteem
ed citizens, his father being customs
officer What induced him to take the
fatal step is not known.
The clerk of Kent county is in receipt
of letter from the secretary of state,
relative to the justices of the peace and
the ministers of the gospel, who fail to
report the marriages performed by them
within the requisite 80 days. The clerk
is advised to call the matter to the at
tention, of the prosecuting attorney whose
duty it is to prosecute all such delin-
quents If such course Is deemed advisa-
bles. IA circular is also inclosed which
will be printed and distributed among
the marriage performers. 1t sets forth
the Importance of having all marriages
recorded, as thereby much trouble, an
novance and embarrassment is often
saved when cases come into court. The
clergymen are urged to comply with the
requirements of the law in this matter,
and the penalties of 500 fine and i'm
prisonment for neglecting to do so are
wildly held up to them.

Kalamazoo Representatives in the Arctic
Regions.
A Kalamazoo correspondent of De-
troit daily says:
The students of the university OF
Michigan will remember Mr.. Edward
Israel, who a little more than two year:
ago left that Institution to join the
Greeley expedition to Lady Franklin
bay. He was greatly admired by hii
teachers. and was one of the most prom
ising young men then in the university
On account of his superior attachments
and his gifts rs mathematician he wa:
warmly recommended TO the govern
mentto form portion of the staff of scien
fists for Lieut.. Greeley's expedition
There is now felt great deal of anx
iety here regarding him, for he is ,
Kalamazoo ooy eorn and bred. Hi
father was the founder of the extensiv,
dry goods house here which, although
he died many years ago,is still conduct
ed in his name. His mother, sisters
and brother are here also. When h,
left his home he promised her that sh
should hear from him in August of thi
year, but the recent occurrences vii
prevent that Edward was fine spec
linen of young manhood, n perfect ath
lete SO far as physical development goes
and capable of more than ordinary pri
7 vations and of fulfilling all the require
ments TO make an arduous and hazard
Gus voyage. Ever one here, both TO
the young mans sake as well as of hi
respected family and kindred hope tina
he may find safe and speedy issu
out of his present dangers and diflicul
ties

BE Firm.

Never knock under Never! Always
rally your forces for more desperate as
| sault upon adversely.
If calumny assails you, and the world
as it is apt to do in such cases-takes part
with your traducers, don't turn moody or
misanthropic, on worse still, seek to drown
your unhappiness in dissipation. Bide
your time. Disprove the SANDER if you
can; if not, live it down. If poverty comes
upon you like thief in the night, what
then? Let it rouse you as the presence
of the real thief would do, to energetic
action. No matter how deep you have
gone in hot water-always provided you
did not help the father of lies to heat it
your case, if you are of the right kind of
stuff is not desperate, nor is it in accord
with the divine order and sweep of things
that life should have any difficulties with
which an honest determined man with
heavens help cannot surmount.
