QUINCY, H., Dec. Twenty years ago
Geo w. Haynes lost his wife, leaving two
young baby girls. He was poor, and had no
means. He gave one girl to q
gentleman of this city, Henry Shelby, now
deceased, who adopted her as his own. This
girl is married to Mr.. II. Himentz.
the brewer. Her foster father left
her snug fortune, estimated at
$50, 600. The younger girl was placed in the
Woodland Orphans home. Thence she was
adopted by some Missouri parties, but suhse.
quently returned to the Woodland home,
and was then adopted by Mr.. aud Mrs. Thos.
Potter, of Baylss. Pike county, H., anG by
them raised to womanhood. Until now she
supposed herself TO be their own daughter.
HAYNES, having accumulated some
property, and her sister, being desirous
of finding her, some months ago began
search, and to-day Alice Potter arrived here
with her foster parents. From the records
of the Woodland home and birth marks, she
has been fully identified as the daughter OF
Geo. W Haynes. The meeting of the sisters
and relatives was very affecting, as all
seemed to think her dead. Mr.
and Mrs. Potter are well-to-do and
substantial farmers of Pike county,
and seemed to be greatly worried, fearing
that Alice will be taken from them. OF this
there is no danger, as her father is satisfied
to have her remain, and she is devotedly at
tached to her foster parents. and cannot
realize that they are not her own. Il is sell
dom that two children left to the cold chari-
ties OF the world fare so well as these sisters
have done.

The Dancing Mania.

4 religious publication-Sunday at
Home contains the following account
of a strange mania which spread
through Europe in 1874 A large as
semblage of persons, pilgrims apparent
ly from different parts of Germany,
made their appearance in the neigh
borhood CT AK la Chapelle, and there
commenced their extraordinary per.
formances. Joining hand in hand they
formed large circles, and began stimuli
taneously to dance, losing more ana
more the control of reason as they
went on, until their enthusiasm
merged in delirium, and they fell to the
ground completely exhausted They
then complained of acute tympanites.
which could only be relieved by tight
bandages round the chest. After the
application of these they remained flee
from pain or irritation, unless they
provoked return of the malady by
again engaging in the dance. Thost
who for any season failed to find per.
| SONS able or willing to swathe them in
| the manner above described, found
some mitigation of their pains by thu
ruder process of having the parts
affected violently thumped or stamped
upon.
During the paroxysm Of their ex'
citement they were insensible to all
that was passing round them, They
fancied themselves surrounded by SUI
pernatural presences, and frequently
shrieked out the names of spirits, with
whom they imagined themselves to be
en- rapport. The insanity spread with
incredible rapidity through the neigh
borhood, reaching the Dutch and Bel
gian capitals on the. one side, the
Cologne and Rhenish cities on the
other. In Liege they excited so much
terror that the magistrates forbade the
manufacture of any but square toed
shoes, the fanatics having conceived
great horror of such as had sharp
points to them, which were the gene
raj wear at that time. For the same
reason it became necessary to interdict
the wearing of red colored garments,
which inflamed the fury of the dancers,
as they are known to do that of mad
bulls.
At Cologne and Metz the mania ran
to a greater height than in any of the
cities previously attacked. The streets
of these towns We're filled with hun.
dreds of these dancers, the inhabitants
everywhere fastening to join them,
unable, as it seemed, to resist the in
fatuation. As in the instance of the
Flagellant frenzy, the laborer left his
plough, the artisan his woodwork, the
tradesman his shop, to swell the band
of devotees, and these great centers of
industry and commerce became for the
time scenes of the widest and most
lawless disorder. Groups of idle vag-
abonds, beggars and thieves pretended
to be seized with convulsions of those
really affected, and initiated their de-
meanor so successfully that it became
impossible to distinguish the true from
the false. The governors of the
Rhenish cities were at last obliged to
employ an armed force to drive away
these troublesome visitors.

Near the Dawn.

When liie's troubles gather darkly
Round the way we follow here,
When no hope the sad heart lightens,
No voice speaks word Of cheer;
Then the thought the shadow seatters,
Giving us cheering ray
When the night appears the darkest,
Morning is not far away.
When adversely surrounds US,
And our sunshine friends pass by,
And the dreams so fondly cherished
With our scattered treasures lie;
Then amid such gloomy seasons
This sweet thought can yet be drawn,
When the darkest hour is present
1t is always near tho dawn.
When the spirit flattering fingers
On the confines Of this life,
Parting from all joyful memories,
And from every scene Of strife,
Though the scene is sad and gloomy,
And the body shrinks in fear,
These dark hours will soon be vanished,
And the glorious morn be here.
Pain cannot affect us always,
Brighter days will soon be here,
Sorrow may oppress US often,
Yet happier time is near;
All along our earthly journey
This reflection lights our way,
Natures darkest hour is always
Just before the break OF day.
