A man and his wife were notorious
through their whole community as liv-
ing in anything but peace. All at once
there was a sudden change for good, and
the house of discord become the house
of concord, much to the establishment
and Joy of the neighbors. An inquisi-
tive old lady ventured to inquire the
cause.
1.-TWO bears did it," said the matron
of the house.
1.-TWO bears J" calculated the. old lady,
lifting up both hands.
Eyes, two bears and I'm glad they
ever came into the house."
"But what in nature do you mean ?"

1.-TWO other bears are mentioned"
81 don't recollect 'em."
| "Well, the Scriptures mention them,
and their names are Bear and For

"Wel, I never"
At this stage of the discourse we came

wishing that those two Scripture bears
would travel through the land and enter

WANTED, A BEAU.

Dear Mr.. Editor, now it's Christmas time,
When mistletoe asserts its power
When eyes as holly berries shine,
And stolen kisses shame the hour.
When fires are heaped up mountain high.
When chairs are costly drawn in,
And the lovers soft and meaning sigh
Is drown'd amid the laughter's din.
The chair upon the hearth near mine
Is vacant, for, if you must know,
At this most cheerful, merry time
I, only I, have got no beau!
And yet I'm pretty, some folks say
Beautiful, some think L know;
So tell your correspondents pray
IrealIy, sadly, want beau.
I'm five feet two mot very talD,
Ny eyes are blue, hair brown and bright,
Feet and hands both gerry small,
And waist-oh really, such mite.
And now for my domestic charms
think that am fond of home,
And from tender lovers arms
Pm sure meier SHOULD wish to roam.
But then he must be proud and tall,
With raven hair and grave dark eyes;
To any one that's fair and small,
Just tell him he need not apply.
On riches 1 will not descant,
Though one can't live on love you know;
But if you find the man want,
Just tell him "Annie wants beau"

A CHEERFUL FARMER.-When the
earth was parched almost throughout
the length and breadth, and crops were
on the verge of total ruin, Missouri
farmer took a cheerful view of the
drought and publishes an article emu
merating some of its blessings. Below
we give few of the good results he
speaks of:
The drought produces general health.
There is no ague or other malarial dis
eases that follow upon wet season, and
are the results of an immense vegetable
growth.
Protracted drought adds greatly to the
destruction of the seeds of the nOXiOus
weeds,
The land, like the human body, re-
quires rest, and drought is rest to the
soil. Seasons of perpetual fertility
would exhaust the soil, and necessitate
the use of costly artificial manures.
There is imprisoned deep down in the
earth an inexhaustiDle supply of ma
nures in the shape of grass that can only
be reached by heat. These natural res
ervoirs of fertility are kept down by
the pressure of moisture and by shade.
They exist in beds of vegetable mould
or in virgin soil too deep to be reached
by the pillow. Every observant farmer
knows of them, from the fact that soils
taken from a considerable depth below
the surface produce for the first year a
luxurant growth. This evolution of
latent force, reached only and generally
diffused by heat, makes itself benefi-
cially apparent in the next years crop

Cariy's Murderer executed Promptly on
=. Time.

IoSDeN. December l1.AO'Donneli
retired at AN early hour last evening. This
morning he rose promptly and took sood
breakfast, shortly after five O'Clock. AT SIX
Father Fleming. arrived and received the
prisoners last communication and admlnis-
tered the holy sacrament. A few minutes
before eight O'Clock the prisoner was re-
moved from his cell to the large room OF the
prison escorted by the wardens. In the
large room were stationed Binn, the hang
man, the sheriffs and under sheriffs, gov
crnor OF the Jail, Rev. DR.. Dut1eid, prison
chaplain. and the Newgate surgeon. The
process of piniong the prisoner limbs was
performed by Binn, O'Donnell keeping
resolut. silence and showing the utmost
firmness, occasionally smilingin an abstract
ed wpy. This work done the procession moved
to the court yard, where was the scaiiold.
O'Donnell declined any assistance from the
warden and assembled the scaffald. rather
Fleming, by his side, repeated the service Oh
the church for the dying and held the cruel
fix before O'Donnell's gaze. The prisoner
took his place on the drop under the rope,
the slack of which was held up over his
head by piece OF thread. Binn appeared
very calm and quickly fixed the moose
around O Donnell's neck, carefully placing
the knot under the left ear. lie ut once
stepped back and pulled the fatal lever, and
O'Donnell fell eight feet. The rope hardly
quivered. According to the surgeon, death
was instantaneous, there being scarcely any
muscular movement OF the hanging form {.
As the black flag was run up, those III the
prison could hear hushed murmur from
the multitude outside. The body hung one
hour, when it was cut down and removed
for the proper legal inquest.
Binn pulled the lever of the trap precisely
is the neighboring church clocks were
strikingS The crowd in front of Newgate
increased rapidly, and shortly before 5
O'Clock numbered 20, 900 persons. The
streets were closely packed, but the thronS
observed O quiet and orderly demeanor.
The Irish element was not conspicuous. As
the moment for the execution approached
the crowd swayed up against the prison
wall, and the roadway, which had before
been kept clear, became bloc ked. The po-
lice, however, moved rapidly through the
multitude and easily cleared the way.
When the black flag was hoisted, announc-
ing the tragedy was ut an eud. there was no
demonstration, although suppressed excite
ment marked many faces. .O'Donnell' s
brother remained to the last, bitterly weep
ing in the center of a sympathiZing group.
The clouds began to break rs the hour OF
approached, and when the black flag was
run up it was distinctly displayed against
the rising sun. The people Immediately
dispersed after the hosting of the flag.
