fact that while other like societies

we cannot pay, as we must rely on

If there is anything which makes life
worth the living it is to be one of an afIcc.
tionate family. Strange to say however, most
people could readily count up the really
nice families they kuow--the family, that
is, iu which there is not only tender care
foroAch other, but an unselfsh deportm mt
and kindly interest always manifested by
every other fellow mcmber. The daughter
will always fetch their mother anything
she may want, and brush their brothers top
coats and hats for them ere the male meme
bers of the house start off for their work
in the morning. The lads, too, Will often
take their sisters for a walk, or pay them
little attentions which cost nothing and
mean great deal This is the household
into which young mau WHO wants good
wife will do well and wisely to marry
There may not be much show about the
girls, but he will find they are affectionate
and their dispositions stand the test ofwear.
1t is easy enough to fall in love with a girl
when she is arfayed for party, she feels
the flush and pleasure Of the run. When
life deepens and darkens, however, and

@NH-A+'N'NNN'S
that COrnwallis has issued a proclamation de-
elaring 1t to Ce s4Pedient that persons coming in
'ad1 arms s5a9la be pardoasd.
Other parts Of this interesting old sheet
are full of stirring European war news such
as Lord Nelson's chase after the L'Orient
the French admiral's ship. A dispatch to
the Directory from Bonaparte while with
way to Egypt 1t affords internal evidence
with what trepida.ion Bonaparte and his
fleet took that trip. 1t reads as follows;
General Bonaparte fell in with six Swe
dish merchantmen, destined for Naples.
He ordered the six captains to come on
board his ship, and having found cir pa
pers in perfect order, he told them, that in
order to conceal his course from the English
he should be obliged 10 force them to follow
his fleet But if they would engage their
word of honor to put into the port of Cagli-
ar, and there to remain some days, he
should have no objection to dismiss them.
The Swedish captains promised so to do,
and fulfilled their promise.
Another historical item is the French de-
mand at the congress Of Rastadt for the de
molition of the fortiication of Ehreub;eits-
tein and the cesson by Germany Chat is
Austria which at that date was the suzcr-
ain, holding the position among Teutons
that Russia does now) Of Cassel and Kehl,
with large territories on the right bank of
the Rhine.
There is notable statement in reference
to Napoleon's Egyptian campaign, which
will explain the present Eastern policy OF
England under Victoria.
After referring to the capture ot Alexan-
dra, Damietta, Rosetta and Cairo, tie dis
patch says 'it was necessary that Bonaparte
should have secured the possession Of Egypt
before he proceeded on his route to India, in
order that he may preserve a communica
tion with France"
Parity of reasoning, with the placing En-
gland in Frances position will show how
necessary it is at the present moment fo
the former country to maintain preponder
ant influence in Egypt, especially at Suez
This issue also contains proclamation
from Lord Castlereagh at Dublin Castle
where he administered the vceroyahip 0
Ireland declaring those people outlaws VIII,
joined the French army, which had jus
landed on the west coast of that country
Another item declares how "thc note 0
preparation Of war is loudly repeated from
every quarter Of the European continent" !"
How identical the above is with the con
dition of Europe To- lay, nearly one hundred
years after; England and France still squad
bling over Egypt!

Its European dispatches are dated August

contrast with the present quick rate of
travel, seven days, and fraction less in
some instances, between Liverpool and New

plaintiffs attorneys in the case of Needham and
others against John G. Wright and others, made
motion for change of venue to one of the
other Superior Court rooms. An affidavit of
Frederick A. w. Davis was filed with the mo-
ton. Afiant states that he is one of the
plaintiffs in said cause, and verify believes
plaintiffs cannot have fair and impartial trial
of said cause in Room No. 3 of said court by
reason of the fact that the said defendants in
said cause have undue influence over the Hon
Lewis c. Walker, one of the judges of said
court, presiding in said Room No. g." Afiant
states that he further believes plaintiffs cannot
have a fair trial there 'becanse of bias and
prejudice of said judge against the cause OF

in day or two.
