Money Left by a Policeman.
IFrom the I,nndnn Truth

There are clearly exceptions to the rule
that the policeman's lot is not happy
one. One of the last cases of which
Sir j. Hannen adjudicated before the
holidays was about the viii of late
member of the force who had died worth
the very substantial sum of 5000.
Whatever he may have done for the
safety of the public, this worthy con-
stable clearly knew how to take excel
lent care of number one. It must be
confessed, however, that he had advan-
tages which one may hope are altogether
pecnliar, for it appears that he began
life as poacher, aud afterward became
Rame-keeper to the gentleman over
whose property he used to shoot on his
own account. He must; Mt any rate,
have developed the virtue of impartial
lty before adopting his final profession.

Francs and Lire.

y.
Travellers are warned that henceforth
francs will not circulate in Italy and that
lire will be refusedin France. The coins
are identical in weight and in value, but
the monetary convention between the
countries ended with the old year, and a
rule which seemed for mutual advantage
no longer has force. In Italy the mint
has been very busy throughout the au.
tumn, every bank has it's reserve of gold
and silver, and the shops have as much
OF the new currency as even they want;
paper money is at par, and even the dis.
honored coinage Of the late pope, no
longer legal tender, is yet at premium
at the money changers. Italy can dis.
psnse with French silver; and, France
being a littlo piqued, for some time at
isast each country will stand on its cwn
dignity and its own coinage. But this
state OF things will not last long. The
decimal coinage is matter Of cosmo-
rolitan interest, and lire and francs will
soon be Interchangeable.

A SONG.
By STELLA c. A1KHSs.

Der wooded slopes traced my steps;
had no friend, walked alone;
ies not alone, thrice blessed word,
For high above in azure deeps
followed, calm. a wondrous bird.
6, she swept far down TO thrill my breast,
she scared a!oft TO brave the clouds,
Then windward due. She knew no rest,
" For this, ! cried, shave forswom
:, Ihe treacherous world, the traitorous friend,
For This choose my path apart,
But as spake, from out the wood
A huatsman fierce strobe into sight;
he wore no smiles. he courted frowns,
his brow gave heed ofcruel might.
AiGh, high he raised his rounded bow,
:. me hunters greed the arrow fed;
1t eieit the air, 1t found home:
Down, down to earth she futtered dead.
y wicked deed o wicked world
~ me crown Of patience cometh late
There is no spot for two alone;
There is one dead and one 10 wait.

The RECORD of the Fairs

The superiority of Wells, Richardson d
Co.'s Improved Butter Color over all others
the Autumnal Fairs. The test Of practical
use is what tells the story, and the great value
of the premiums given by the Agricultural
Fairs, lies in the fact that the judges IN these
cases are regular farmers, who know what their
needs are and what will supply them. Wells,
Richardson d Co.'s Improved Butter Color,
which has taken first premium at all fairs
where exhibited, is put up in a vegetable oil so
prepared that it cannot become rancid, most

A WRITER for an English paper, the

efficient remedy, and will do more in an
hour than could be effected in day by
sponging and brushing. But its power

dest and least pure oil, being heavier
and less inclined to float on water, is
best. Two or three tablespoonfuls to a
gallon of water is strong enough to kill

bugs on woodwork it is used unlnixed,
and brushed over like paint into every

prove hurtfu], even if largely diluted.
CORRESPONDENCE California Rural
Press: The first generation of codling
moth begins to fly about the first Of
May. Somake sure to gather some in the
chrysalis state in March or April, put
in jar, and set the jar in place where
you will see it every day. When they
begin to have wings, prepare your traps
thus: The half of a kerosene can with
the tin bent in at the top an inch; half
inch of kerosene in ihe can, little fat
lamp near the oil. The light reflected
from the bright tin will draw the moth
five rods at lesst. If your orchard is
forty rods square, sixteen traps, will do
the, work. The moth will fly about the
Light until it touches the oil. This will
end it.

Pu. ssAme.s OF Crime.

The chief object in the punishment
of criminals is the protection of society.
Hence laws have been enacted, con
stables and magistrates appointed,
courts projected, judges selected, prisons
constructed and the whipping post and
scaffold called into requisition. When
a crime is committed, and the criminal
is arrested, tried, convicted and senten-
ced, it is best generally to permit the
law to be fully carried out. There are
cases, however, where executive elem
ency may advantageously be exercised
If 1t should appear at any time that the
offender has been enormously convicted,
that his ofiense has been magnified and
his punishment excessive, the Governor
may very properly be asked to respite
or reprieve, particularly as it is an
axiom that il is better that "ninety-
nine guilty should escape than one in
nocent man should suffer" This il
particularly true in cases where the
penalty is death
lfa man is imprisoned wrongfully he
may eventually be given his liberty,
but if he shall be hung by the neck
until he is dead he cannot be restored to
life. His doom is sealed, his soul con-
signed to God who may be more
merciful than jurors and judges, and
his body consigned to the attacks of
enemies that are not less vOracious than
the men who over 1900 years ago cried
., -. =. r..
was not enough that the offender should
be imprisoned, but his life must be
taken in order that others should he
taught lesson, and society be rendered
secure.

The New Castle Star has taken n
decidedly short cut to victory. From

day?"

my botchwork,' said Mr.. Wesley, and
rode on.
Now we are not drunk but our posi-
ton must be the same as Mr.. Wrslcy's
convert If we are regeneratcd free
trade convert of the Stars, then all we
have to say is that the Star has made 4
pretty botch Of it.
We think we imagine another reason
why the Star so suddenly shut down
its good naturel discussion with lis on
the principles Of the tariff and free trade.
The last free trade argument appeared
