That II the proceedings of the City Council

DR.. Thomas Carr reported the death of an un-
known man on his plantation on Friday last 10
Judge VIM. P. Byrd. who Immediately went to
the spot for the purpose of holding a Coroner's
inquest, but as the law provides that no inquest
shall be held unless the Coroner shall, AFTER an
investigation OF the circumstances attending the
death, deem it probable that it was caused by
the criminal act negligence of another the Judge,
after careful examination of the body and inves-
tlgation of the circumstances, concluded that an
inquest was unnecessary. there being no grounds
for suspicion of foul play. 1t seems that the
man IA peddleD entered the house of a colored
woman, and requested her to cook him some
supper, and after eating heartily he said he be-
lleved he would lie down and rest He then
started to the bed, but fell over on it dead
Heart disease or apoplexy is supposed to have
been the cause. A memorandum book on his
person disclosed the fact that his name was N
W. Segrcst, and we recently learn that he re-
sided in this county near Jackson's Bluff.

Advice to u Young Lady.

A young lady writes to D." Brick" Pomeroy as
follows: " Would l be safe in marrying IA young
man whom love, and who Processes to love me,
and is handsome, well educated and has plenty
of this worlds goods, but is addicted to strong
drink, but says he will abstain from it after mar.
riage, when he has sown his wild oats? am
an orphan, and write you for advice"
Pomeroy answers as follows: You had bet
ter get in your coffin, pull the lid down yourself
and be consecrated to your earth, than marry the
man who drinks There are thousands Of poor
women made wretchcd by listening to the prom
ises OF reformation after marriage. If you do not
want TO get into your coffin, take the most OBJ
noxous piece of old meat that you can find, and
take 1t TO your bosom for Il husband, rather than
marry man who is debauched, degraded and
debased by strong drink"

TOpsy's Bedroom.

1t was a winters night. Topsy, the
gray pussy, sat purring on the kitchen
hearth. Sarah sat down by the stove
and warmed her feet in the oven before
she went to bed.
Topsy was left alone. The fire went
down, and the kitchen began to grow
cold. Topsy woke up. She wanted to
go upstairs and jump into Sarah's bed.
So she tried to open the door with her
paw; but Sarah had latched it.
Topsy mewed with vexation. She
went back to her place on the hearth.
The moon shone into the room. Topsy
saw the oven door open. She purred at
this. 81 have it now" she meant.
'I'll sleep snug and warm"
Into the oven she crept. She rolled
herself into ball, put her head on her
paws, and purred herself to sleep.
Next morning Sarah came down be-
fore light. 1t was washing-day, and she
was in hurry. She shut the oven
door. and did not see Topsy. Then she
made her fire. Topsy's bedroom began
to prove too warm. Poorlit cat! She
tried to push the door open; but she
could not. ''Mew, new" she cried.
The fire snapped and cracked, and
Sarah did not hear her. She scratched
the door, and mewed as loud as she
could.
Spot, the little dog, ran in from the
barn. He wanted his breakfast.
New, NEW" cried Topsy. Spot heard
her. ''Bow, WOW, wow" barked Spot.
He pulled Sarah's dress with his teeth.
He ran to the stove, and looked at
Sarah and barked. She came and
opened the oven door.
Out jumped very smutty pussy. She
was very glad pussy, though; and she
rubbed herself against Spot, and purred.
1t was pussy's way of thanking him.
Afterwards, Sarah looked in the oven
mornings before she made her fire

man shows to any one who mar be in
terested in the affair, though he does
not fancy the publicity it has brought
him. 81 have had so much said about
me lately in the papers, and It was
merely an accident" he remarks in n
letterI have justreceived from him. and
which am sure he will pardon me for
quoting, for the glimpse that it gives of
his character.
Some one, trying to be witty, has said
that absence of body is better than
presence of mind, but this is the wav
the coward looks at it. One who Is
brave will try to be prepared when the
danger comes, and will not shrink from
meeting it. A little boy in the school
panic the other day helped his teacher
by dragging other boys, who were try
ing to escape from the window, back
by their legs.
A young lady I mention this Incl
dent for the sake of the girls-was rid
ing horseback near her country home
last week, when the animal took fright
and ran away. The girl chung to his
back, knowing that to be her only
chance, though he dashed with terrific
speed down a long hill, at the foot of
which she knew there was river and
bridge. The road, moreover, makes
q sharp turn just before it reaches the
bridge; and when it came to this point
she saw to her horror that the horse
was headed for a narrow space, not
more than three feet wide, between the
side of the bridge and a tree.
If he struck either the tree on the one
hand or the bridge on the other she
would be dragged off and killed, while
If he leaped that seemed to invite more
terrible death on the rocks twenty feet
below. Still she chung to his back while
the horse leaped. He landed, not on
the rocks, but in a pool just beyond, and
was SO hurt by the fall that he had to
be shot The girl escaped without
harm, except for the shock to her nerv-
Gus system. Had she not kept her self
possession and retained her seat on the
horses back, and guided him as well
as she was able, she must certainly
have been killed.
Had Charles Biller waited to see if
some one else would not Jump in the
water his opportunity for heroism would
have been lost 1t is the boys and girls

Mean People.

One Of the oldest things In the world
Is the fact that mean people do not know
that they are mean, but cherish sim
cere conviction that they are the souls
OF generosity. You will hear them in.
Weighing loudly against a neighbor who
does not come up to the standard of
generous man, and decrying the sin of
boarding and Withholding, without be-
ing sensible in the least that they are
condemning themselves. They are usu-
ally people who are not in the habit of
self-criticism, and if they were not
amusing they would be the most aggra-
waiting class alive. Moreover, they are
generally people who are not only will
ing to receive, but who demand a great
deal at the hands of others; yet the ex-
ample of their friends in giving and
lending never seems to strike them as
at variance with their own line of con-
duct; and if by any chance they part
with a farthing, it appears to them
more magnanimous act than the found
ing of hospital by another. The mean
person must be brought to lively sense
of the need before opening her purse;
as for beggars, she disapproyes of them
altogether; they are as pestiferous as
the mosquito in her eyes, and ought to
be legislated out of existence. We do
not, however, always find the mean
person among the rich; she is quite as
likely to be poor; indeed, one of the great
disadvantages of poverty is that it often
obliges one to seem small, obliges
one to think of the candle-ends when
one would prefer to think of better
things. Money does not make person
mean necessarily, or we should not all
be struggling so desperately to obtain
it; it ought rather to be q preventive.
The disease lies in the disposition of
the individual, and it is doubtful if any
Interior circumstance can eradicate it;
and while in this view we may easily
forgive her, we yet find her vastly in
convenient to deal with. If she is the
employer, the mean woman is apt to
get as much work from her servants
for the least money as possible. On
some preteXt or other she detains her
seamstress after her regular days
work is over, underpays her washer
woman, or exchanges old buds for clean
linen; keeps the servants fire low, or
pays their wages with cast-off fnery.
Sometimes, indeed, it is the servant
who gives poor work for liberal pay
ment; sometimes it is the husband who
dimes sumptuously at his club, while his
family sit down to spare diet; some
times it is the landlord who obliges the
tenant to make his own repairs or go
shabby; sometimes it is the neighbor
who borrows but never lends; the man.
ufacturer who adulterates food or
drugs; the step-mother, who feeds the
children on skinned milk; the mother
in-law, who grudges her sons wife the
fallals she has not been used to; or the
daughter-in-law, who makes her hus-
bands mother feel like stranger in
her home. Indeed. meanness is such
an unlovely trait that it is no wonder
we all disown it.-Harper'S Bazar.
