"He left a largo property,1' was the dosing sentence of a recent obituary. How many rcllecticns it suggests.! What a j"ty ht- was obliged lo leave it. lie was taking great delight in coll -Kiting it. It was all the fruit of his own energy,

had to leave it, anil tie went out oi the world us poor as he came in. He might have taken it with himor rather he might have sent it. Every dollar given in humble faith to scatter the glad tidii.gs of salvation, every cup of water given to a disciple-, every tear of pious sympathy for tho suffering, every gift of his kindly charily to tho needy, would have been treasured laid up in heaven. How much more blessed to go, than to leave, a largo property.

Adding nnto forms where there is not flesh enough, has. been a trick of self-made woman for some time, but this klea of calling in the surgeon as well as the sin Her, is something now, and eminently worthy of Chicago. rtBa - In Detroit on Friday, a woman called at the ollicc of a surgeon, with a babe about three inotr.hM'Id,

Mr. Griffith, on Chri -it-mas day, found his wife lying drunk on the floor, and thereupon kicked her, "but denies that he used unusual violence." This leads the Tribune to wonder whether, in the society of which Mrs. Ann Griffith must have been a i ornament, it is usual for husbands to kick drunken wives : whether tho practice upon

the whole is reckoned beneficial ; and what was the degree of violence "usui.l" on such occasions in Mr. Griffith's family.' We may add that Mrs. G. did not get up when she was kicked, ai.d the next time. Mr. Griffith came that way he says he found hex dead. ' mail n A Fatal Mistake. At Portland.
