A Pennsylvania ROMANCE.
How Mr.. Lincoln Relieved the Distresses
of a Newly Married Couple.

~ - NEWLY SOupfe.
In the spring of 1863, very hand
some and attractive young lady from
Philadelphia came to my Office with a
note from friend asking me to assist
her in obtaining an interview with the
President. Some time ago she had
been married to a young man who was
a Lieutenant in a Pennsylvania regi-
ment. He had been compelled to leave
her the day after the wedding to rejoin
his command in the army of the POI
tomac. After some time he obtained
leave OF absence. returned to Philadel-
phia, and started on a brief honey
moon journey with his bride. A move
ment of the army being imminent. the
war Department issued a peremptory
order requiring all absent officers to
reJoin their regiments on certain day,
on penalty of dismissal in case of diso-
bedience. The bride and groom away
on their hurried wedding tour, failed
to see the order, and on his return he
was met by notice of his dismissal
from the service. The Young fellow
was completely Frustrated by the dis
grace, and his wife hurried to Wash
ington to get him restored. / obtained
for her an interview with the Presi-
dent. She told her story with simple
and pathetic eloquence, and wound up
by saying: Mr.. Lincoln, won't you
help us? | promise you, if you will
restore him, he will be faithful
to his duty The President had
listened to her with evident sympathy
and half amused smile at her earnest
ness. and as she closed her appeal
he said, with parental kindness: ssAnd
you say, my child, that Fred was COM
PEELED to leave You the day after the
weddingp Poor fellow, L don't wonder
at his anxiety to get back, and if he
stayed little longer than he ought to
have done Wen have to overlook his
fault this time. Take this card to the
Secretary of War and he will restore
your husband" She went to the War
Department, saw the Secretary, who
rebuked her for troubling the President
and dismissed her somewhat curtly.
As it happened, on her way down the
War Department stairs, her hopes
chilled by the Secretary's abrupt man
uer. she met the President ascending.
He recognized her, and with pleasant
smile said: well. my dear, have you
seen the Secretary" Eyes, Mr.. Lin
coln," she replied, land he seemed
very angry with me for going to you.
Won't you speak to him for mep"
Give yourself no trouble" said he.
Il will see that che order is issued"
And in few days her husband was re-
manded to his regiment.
l am sorry to add that not long after
he was killed at the battle of Gettys-
burg, thus sealing with his blood her
pledge that he should be faithful to his

A RUSSIAN REVIEW.

How the Armies of the Gar Are Inspsct-
ed by the Emperor.
We rode at least mile and q half
past the line of tents, and must have
seen $4,000 men. The ground is pref
tily Academic, and altogether well SUIT

came upon the Guard reg;use.ts and

compact mass facing the Empress's pa
vilion or tent. at the door of which she
and her ladies alighted, and were
joined by the Emperor and Grand
Dukes. We all dismounted and came
inside the square, of which the royalty
and staff formed one side, the musi-
clans the opposite side, the other two
sides be ng composed of officers of the
various corps who had hurried to the
spot. In the center, on a mound. stood
the conductor of the united bands of
music, and near him onedrtmmer boy,
Cor perhaps a lad of twenty We (the

Emperor came down from the pavilion
and spoke to each of the Generals. He
was very gracious to me, and inquired
about my service and the commands [

the center, and a detachment of Ser

BOSTON VISITORS.
Peanuts and Pink Lemonade at the Hoo
Rural Sight-Seers.

hurat Signt-Seers.
An influx of country visitors to Bes-
ton is invariably signalized by the pro-
fusion of paper bags, business cir
culars and peanut shells that litter the
common. the public garden, and the
sidewalks generally. The rural sight
seer has a pronounced partiality for
peanuts. Whenever he may be ex-
pected to flock thither the supply of
peanuts on hand to meet all poss BILE
demands is made startlingly manifest.
Carts with heaped-up masses of the
edible appear in all directions. What
becomes of them at other times is
mystery to the uninitiated. Whence
their vendors spring is also another Sc
cret that no one has attempted to
solve. They are always sunburned
men of bucolic aspect and single-toned
raucaus voices and somnolent bearing.
Another feature of the rush of rural
visitors hitherward is the simultaneous
appearance of pink lemonade. Why
pink has never been explained; nor has
any one curious in such matters taken
the trouble to discover the cur Gus con-
nection between this lemonade and the
frowsy young men without shirt-collars
or neckties, and having an abnormal
development of the Adams apple in
their throat. who supply the blushing
beverage to the thirsty strangers in our
midst. The city was prolific last week
in these articles and their purveyors.
With the departure of the circus both
disappeared. 1t might be reasonably
argued that they follow in the train of
the circus were it not that they come to
the surface again on every public holi-
day. 1t is not in this locality alone
that peanuts and pink lemonade pre-
vail on these occasions. The custom
extends from one end of the country TO
the other, proving that there must be
some subtle and as yet unsolved SYM
pathy between country people bent up
on enjoyment and the festal peanut aud
tinted lemonade. Boston Gazette.

Once in while one of these cases

to prevent its recurrence.
Something that happened to me
about twelve years ago has worried me
ever since. l was sent TOR one day to
take charge of the body of man in
- street. The man was a tailor,
and had fallen over while sitting on
his bench sewing. He was big, fieshy

weighed about $50 pounds. The body
was warm and the limos very limp.

physician had pronounced him dead.

once. but delayed this operation. on
one pretext or another, for nearly two
days. During this time the body Law

could delay no longer. The limbs
were still as limp as when / first ex-
amined the body. | prepared the
body for burial, and the next day it
was buried. do not believe that man
was dead when the earth was shoveled
in on his coffin. If the same thing
were to happen again L would let
somebody else do the burying.
About the same time a Young woman
living up town was supposed TO have
died very suddenly. A physician was
called in. He said she was dead. An
old woman who was present thought
otherwise and insisted upon it that she
was in trance. The body was buried.
A week later the old woman deter
mined to satisfy herself about it, and
bribed the grave-diggers to disinter
the coffin. The lid was removed, and
horrible sight was seen. The young
woman had come to life and had made
a terrible struggle for Liberty. Her
hair was torn out and her face was
terribly scratched. She had turned
over on her face.
"A person is generally believed to be
dead if there is no acton of the heart
or pulse. But if such person is In a
trance there is no act on of the heart
or pulse. A vein should be opened.
If blood flows the person is not
dead. This operation would take about
thirty seconds, but it is not often re-
sorted to. Suppose the person is sui

sion of animation. Before he can re-

box, where whatever life there may
have been in him is frozen out. The
Board of Health should take hold of
th matter and devise some means of
sscertaining beyond all doabt that life
Is extinct before the BODY is buried. L
have thought OF good many different
means. A receiving vault could be
built In every cemetery where bodies
could be placed until decomposition
had begun, when they could be buried. -

A winged seed
SO small IL seems there scarce is room
To hold she germ of growth and bloom;
so light, tits poised upon the air
AS though stwouid rest forever there,
The down upon fairy's wing,
Yon cloud that zephyrs speed
There is no frazier, lighter thing
Than seems this winged seed.
A winged seed
As iigbtsome as the loving word
That no one but the sufferer heard;
As trifiing as the kindly smile
That cbeered a lonely lot awhile:
As slight as was the passing sneer
That made an old wound bleed;
The faunt that half provoked tear
So light, this winged seed
A winged seed
Within this tomb what spirit lies,
That soon In life renewed shall rise?
Whence came it, floating white and fair
Upon the fragrant, golden air?
Oh breathe not on the feathery thing,
It's onward course TO speed.
TIL thou hast thought what stem shall
spring.
