Which Astonished the Cashier of
the First National Bank.

The cashier of the First National bank
was somewhat surprised yesterday aft
ernoon when an unknown man stepped
up to the window and presented check
for 100000 signed by Thomas Carr.
He did not cash it, but took steps at
once to find out who Thomas Carr was,
and who the man was who presented
the check. They were one and the
same. Thomas Carr is an insane fugi-

was committed last April asecond time.
He was lodged in the county jail. and
will be returned to Rochester at once.

Accidents of Life.

We often speak of birth as an ac- cident, and if we mean thereby to say that it is something over which the wishes and preferences of the in dividual have no control, it is most emphatically so. Whether he shall be born prince or a slave, whether he shall first look out upon the East ern or Western Continent, whether his career shall be in the nineteenth h or twentieth century. are all ques- tions determined without his knowl- edge or consent. But after one has attained to such intelligence that it may be supposed that his will must have some influence, circumstances affect his history quite beyond the reckoning of his sagacity. Some act deemed trivial at the time, may give direction to his whole subse- quent career. A word spoken in his hearing may determine the choice of his vocation. A very small sue cess may fire his ambition for the performance of great things. or q very trihing failure may discourage him from any lofty effort. All his tory is full of small incidents upon which turned the destinies, not only of individuals but of empires. We cannot, indeed, estimate the relative Importance of any event until we know to what itmay lead. A thread dropped upon the twig may affect the shape of the large oak, and 3 pebble may have in the beginning determined into which of the great oceans the waters of river should flow. When great war has closed
 one can look back over the records and see how very nearly defeats came to being victories, and by wha, slight things victories were kept from being defeats. But all this retros. pection is of no practical value in planning or acting fer the future for no experience will enable us to foretell which are the important turning points. We often find that occurrences which we supposed wers going to lead to great results, lead to nothing, while others which VIC pass unnoticed produce the most momentous consequences. Viewed in the light of Eternal Providence, there are doubtless no such things as accidents; but as we see things, all human life is full of them. -T TEx.

Listen to the Children.

My dear sir and my dear madam, when your little child comes to your side, her sweet eyes big with wonder, relating to you some trining happen ing, don't be bored or uninterested. Do not send her away unanswered. Get down on your knees, as it were, and try to be sweet and innocent and eager and pure as she is. Try not to Outgrow the song of birds, the laughter of children, the wonder of growing trees, the tears that we shed over dead hopes and rainy days and tales that end sadly. Try not to outgrow the home games and the home news, and the great little events of yoar neighborhood. Do not be Il cynic where fondness and tenderness and love are concerned. Do not laugh at gushing girls and lads who try to write poetry. For these things are inst as much life as going to Europe-as being elected to Congress, or writing great book. Do not think you alone live and all else on earth only exist-for oh 1 tell you again, no song of yours, no book of yours, no grand speech of yours is more beautiful to God than the picture of Andy and Mollie playing "oh sweet beans and barley" hand in hand with the little children he has given into their care and keep ing Cathrine Cole in New Orleans Picayune.

A Ghastly Table.

In the Patti Palace, at Florence, is a table which, for originally in the matter of conception and construc- tion, IS prabably without a rival. It was made by Giuseppe Sagatti, who passed several years of his life in it's manufacture. To the casual ob- server it gives the impression of a curious mosaic of marbles of differ ent shapes and colors, for it looks like a polished stone. In reality it is composed of human muscles and viscera. No less than 100 human bodies were used in it's construction. The table is round and about a yard in diameter, with a pedestal and four clawed feet, the whole being formed of petriiied human remains. The ornaments of the pedestal are made from the intestines the claws, from hearts, livers and lungs, the natural colors of which are preserved The table top is constructed of muscles artistically arranged, and it is bor- dered with upward of 100 human eyes, the effect of which IS startling. The bodies were obtained from hos pitals. St. Louis Republic.

When one thinks of how many good things have been said, he is disposed to question anything being left very good to be said. Doubtless writers and speakers thought this ages ago; still those who have had to instruct with tongue and pen, have found something which it ap- peared necessary for the worlds ad- vancement that they should utter in their own way. One generation can not think for another, save Tn the sense of exciting currents of thoughts.

Keeping the History Straight.

Under glass case in the Secretary of States office is a blood-stained elk skin belt that once belonged to Governor Yell. The belt has an in- teresting history, and the story will recall the owners life to all the old settlers. When Arkansas first en- tered the Union, Yell was elected it's first governor. He is described as a courteous, digniiied Southern gentle man to the manor born, and the peo- pie loved him dearly. His picture hangs on the wall in the Secretary of States office, whence it has forty years gazed down benignantly upon long lines of state governments some good, some bad. After scrv- ing as Governor, Yeil 2as sent to Congress, but at the outbreak of the Mexican war he resigned, and led a regiment of Southern troops into the land of the Montezumas. During the first charge on the field of Buena Vista, in the spring of '46, he was shot through the body and fell dead |. This blood-stained belt, with it's sword strap still attached, was taken from around his waist when his vic- torious troops found him. Little Rock Register.
 Archibald Yell was the first Con- gressman from Arkansas and the second Governor of the State. He was, however, returned to Congress after serving over three years as Governor, resigning to make the race. He was native of North Car olina. The picture referred to was put in the Secretary of States of- flee by Jacob Frolich, while he was Secretary of State, some ten years ago. Yell was not shot at all, his death wounds having been inflicted by Mexican lances. It is we'll enough to revive the vaorous deeds of our States heroes, but it is of prime importance that the incidents should be correct. We will state that Governor Yell's remains repose near his old home, in Evergreen cem- etery, Fayetteville, under the shadow of the Arkansas Industrial Univer- sity.- Fayetteville Sentinel.

THE FLIGHT OF TIME.

Like strangers on q foreign shore,
We sit and count our moments DER,
But little dream the rapid flight
That changes day and brings US night.
The prattler on its mothers knee,
With heart OF love and childish glee,
Sits chaltering all its time away
In merriment and mirthfpl play.
The youth that sports upon the green,
When spring time dons its beauteous sheen
Foryets the moments as they fy,
Till manhood's cares eclipse his eye.
And manhood, with q thousand cares.
Perceives II not, and unawares
The silvered lock and furrowed brow
OF mellow years encircle now.
Fen age, with wintry chill and hoar,
Sees but phantom passing o'er;
Unmindful OF his fieeting breath
He sits engulfed in sober death.
Thus time proceeds in rapid haste,
And we improve its gold or waste
The fieeting hour in slumbrous state
Till hope is fed, amend too late.
