Affection Among Birds.

Between pair of the species called
love birds, says an author, 'we find the
most perfect unity of purpose, and har-
mony of acton besides. If one cats, the
other eats also; if one bathes, the other
accompanies it; if the husband cries,
forthwith the wife chimes in. Is one i'll,
the other feeds it, No matter how many
of these little birds may be assembled on
tree each keeps with its mate; they
never serarate." And another writer
adds: 'It is q well-known fact that
these lovely creatures rarely survive the
deaths of their companion; they pine
away visibly when cruel fate dissolves
the marriage bond, rarely touch food
again, scarce utter sound, or if they do
its tone is most piteous, and in few
days they follow the loved one gone be-
fore" Often sterner birds show the same
depth of feeling. "We even know an
example where the female owl pined to
death on the decease of her mate and
companion of many seasons. Clinging
affection like this is beautiful picture of
lifelong attachment. Here, at least, we
find no trace of selfshness; the one finds
it's happiness only where the other takes
part; each lives for the other"

the number is increasing. There is quite
an American colony in Mexico city, and
the English and Americans associate

SWindling the Farmers.

It looks as if our farmers, as a class,
were the most easily swindled people in
the country. Some of them are shrewd
enough, but the most of them are gulled
by every bum that comes along. The
other day man went through Dauphin
county with a lot of colored salt put up
in jars, which he represented was a
stump-consuming powder. His instruc-
tions were bore hole in the stump, fill
it with powder, plug up: the whole, let it
stand for six weeks and then set the
stump afre, and it would burn down be-
low the plow-line. The farmers caught
on to it readily. The six weeks provision
was wise one, for it allowed the agent
to get away. An examination of the
"powder," however, proved its worthless
qualities, and the farmers can kick them
selves over being badly fooled.-Maach

How to EngraYe Egg Shells.

Trace the writing or design on the
shell with thin varnish of melted wax,
using a common pen; then immcrsc the
ccg for few minutes in vinegar or
dilute acetic acid. A few experiments
will determine the proper time, depend
inr on the strength of the acid employed.
Then wash the egg in water, and remove
the tracing. Wax will rub off, and var
nish will come off with alcohol. The re
suit will be most beautiful and delicate
relief of the desired pattern. If varnish
be used, a colored background can be
produced by dyeing the egg before ap-
pplying the alcohol. Wash the egg be-
fore dyeing it, as the acid would injure
the color.

der? You say it is the battering rams coming

You say it is the tramp of hostile legions,
No. The quivering and the roaring are

God and He laughed her down; Thebes defied
God and He laughed her down; Babylon de-

there is great difference between
Gods smile and Gods laugh. The smile, it
is eternal beatitude, it is the bells Of heaven

it is the 18th of May, the apple orchards in
full bloom. God smiled when David sang,
and Miriam clapped the cymbals, and Han
nah made the garments for her son, and Paul
preached and ST. John kindled with apoca-

may we never hear it! It means pun.

into Righteousness. He comes into this world
in the person of Christ. He takes up the

and live, look and live: with the crimson
veil of my sacrifice will cover up all your
sins; with my dying groans I will swallow
up all your groans, look and live, look and
live" If a man turns from that, then Gods
voice changes its intonation and it comes
through the first chapter Of Proverbs like
the simoom of the desert and says: Because
called and you refused, and stretched out
my hand and no ran regarded, and yet put
at naught all my counsel and despised my

will live forever in the light of His smile. and

Marrow Escape from Drowning hc
BeiIc-Isie Strike. de.
The Baptist Sunday school gave their
annual excursion and basket picnic at
West Point yesterday. The morning
was a bright and pleasant one, and a
large crowd was carried, filling seven
coaches TO their utmost capacity. The
day was sgIesably spent in fishing,
beating, &C., until interfered with by
the rain, about . p. N. The rain did
not last long, however, and the PEG.
pie soon returned to their sports. The
only thing which occurred to mar the
pleasure of the day was the capsizing
about l p. NJ. Of a sailboat, in which
were two ladies and three gentlemen.
Fortunately no one was damaged, ex-
cept to the extent of getting drenched,
but the escape was narrow one. The
accident occurred when the party was
returning to shore and was due to
carelessness on the part Of the man who
was sailing the boat.
Alta meeting Of the nailers and feeders
Of this city who struck few days ago
at the Belle-lsle works, the situation
was disc usseu and the men decided not
10 return to work. These men struck
on the 18th instant on account Of
notice being posted that after the 2Sth
the wages in the nail department would
be the same as at Harrisburg, Pa.
This amounted to reduction of ten
per cent. Many Of the more con-
sentative men wanted to work
out the two weeks notice; but
the others ruled, and they went
out Immediately upon reading the no.
tice. The company claim that they
cannot continue TO pay the prices they
have been paying at the present price
Of nails, and the men say that they are
now making nails at as low prices as
they can possibly afford.
BY this strike about leo persons are
thrown out Of employment. 1t is to
be hoped that the existing differences
can soon be settled in a manner salts
factory to all interested.
The commissioners Of the James
River Free bridge propose to erect
small watch-house on the south end Of
the bridge fer the accommodation Of
Waterman Smith. The building will
not interfere with the walkway.
The recent heavy rains have caused
the river to rise several feet. 1t was
falling yesterday, but the prospect is
that after the rain Of yesterday after
noon It is likely to rise again.
Msjor A. ii. Drewry, Of Westover,
was in the city yesterday in attendance
upon the Hastings Court.
For several weeks past Rev. Thomas
