He was born Mav 5, 1803, and was

The Cincinnati Commercial in commenting on the result of the election in that city says: "The Republicans who have brought themselves, in the absence of experience, to believe that there are multitudes of Democrats so good that they will scratch their ticket in a heated elfct'ron, may deceive themselves.

Widows are too much for in
experienced young men. Widows are too cute, and young men espec
ially should beware ot them. Were
is an instance illustrating why : A young man who thought he had
won the heart and asked the hand in marriage of a young widow was asked by her "What is the differ
ence between myself and my Dur
ham cow ? He naturally replied
"Well, I don't know." "Then,"
said the widow, "you had better
marry the cow." This was a settler,
and, as yet, he has neither married
the cow nor the vrdow.
The following fish story trans
lated from the Courrier de Francis
co, shows the odd construction of
French language: A singular history of trouts grateful) . A rich proprietor at the interior had made to establish a pond artificial, where found themselves agglomerated three
thousand treats.
The proprietor is the father of a airline
of from Are to six years. She had taken the habitude of to go each morning to give to eat to the trout,
at tne aid or crumbs or bread. These ashes were become so entamed that they skipped out of the wtter for to attrap the crumbs which the infant held in the crevke of her hand. It arrived one day that she lost the equilibrium, and she fell, the head the first, in the pond, of which the water was enough profound. At the cries emitted by the girling, the father was run himself.
But what horror 1 He saw his infant
extended without movement at the sur
face, where she floated as a cork.
What was not the surprise of the father
in seeing that she had been supported by a mass compact of trouts.
The fishes had ranged themselves under her body, as to sustain and prevent her
from to drown.
If this history is truthful, the fishes are
not so much deprived of the intelligence
as one is pieasea nimseit to believe.

A New York fashion writer has
been examining some lovely dress
es in a leading establishment of
that city, and says :
One ot the most notable dresses was of white grenadine, with the
edge of the stuff bordered by satin
stripes. The gored underskirt had
a side-plaited flounce all round the
bottom, bordered hy satin stripes. Above this fell a long overskirt.
laid in side plaits all round, bordered by the satin stripes. There was no looping of the skirt. The plaits
rati iu straight lines trom the waist to the border, and were tacked down underneath with concealed
stitches to within six inches of the
bottom. The corsage was a round waist with surplice-gathered front.
forming a lace-edged fichu, decorat
ed on one side with a big coquet ran it. ..m ... .
ine neii was ot suit white moire
belt ribbon, through which the sash draperies were drawn at the
back. The sleeves were shirred
and puffed. .
Another dress was a trained robe of brocade, with a flush of double
pink ami tinted satin. The back
drapery consisted of shawl points
of brocade', edged with deep falls of
real Spanish lace. 1 he sides were formed of satin in wide plai tings, with gathered tabs of brocade above.
there were decorations of Spanish
lace, and on the lower part of the
plaits, on the right side, was a clua
ter of cream, pink and cardinal
roses. The brocade corsage had a
pointed collar of Koman and seed pearls, satin beads and Spanish
lace, with a finish of roses. A
bright and pretty evening toilet from the same masculine hands had
the lower edge of the skirt made in side plaitiags of satin, with flowers of cream silk grenadine, embroidered in flowers of natural colors. The back was plain silk grenadine, gracefully draped, while the front had another embroidered flounce above the lower one.

"Mom," said little Johnny Periwinkle the other day, addressing his maternal parent, "what does 'rasthetic' mean? ' I heard Mrs. Mobby say yesterday that you was a disciple of their aesthetic school." "iEsthetic, my son," said Mrs. Periwinkle, as she danhed Mr. Periwinkle's red flannel shirt out of a wash-boiler, "is an extreme love of the beautiful; the too, too utterly intense all-butness of everything that is lovely. Oh! she exclaimed, clasping her hands rapturously, "how supremely divine is the study of this noble science ?"
" Well, mom," said Johnny, "I'veH
a aesthetic conundrum fer yer. What's the difference between this nut I'm boldin' in my hand and a No. 1 salute from a William goat? Give 'er up ? Why, one is a butter-nut ana the other is aa utter butt. See?"
Johnny studied 'the science of

Savaa-e Rites at Harvard. In one of the sophomore societies the initiatory proceedings, which
continue several days, wind up with the branding of the victim on the arm in four places with a red-hot
iron. The custom has been in vogue for some time, and it is said thai many students whose arms have thus been disfigured, instead of be
ing ashamed ot the foilr, actually
take pride in showing the scars on all possible occasions. The branding is no slight affair, the students sometimes fainting under the infliction. We presume that this matter
must be in some way outside of the province of the authorities of the
college, else it would have been stopped long ago. We understand
that the son of one of the highest
officials of the college has already
entered upon bis initiatory exercises. Certainly the college officers can instruct the students that such meth
ods of self-torture by way of show
ing fortitude and devotion are the disgrace of savage tribes, and that giving up the crucifying of the flesh
has been one ot the steps in the
march of civilization.
- ' ' 1 -sMSMa 1 - Spencer Journal: For some
time our efficient Sheriff, L. H.
Wood, has been troubled with a
cancer on the end of his nose, which
naturally gave him much uneasiness of mind. However some two or three weeks since be commenced a treatment prescribed by E. H.
Duling, with very satisfactory re
sults. Last Saturday he had the
pleasure ot seeing the cancer re
moved, wbich was ot a flat round
appearance and put in a bottle containing alcohol, for preservation.
Mr. Wood, on the removal of the
cancer, felt much relief and is loo J in his praise of the treatment of Mr. Duling. Cruel Landlords; Delinquent Renters. Cruel landlords are often heard of, but little is ever said of delinquent renters. They are quite as many of the latter as the former and just two instances will be named. A newspaper reporter of this city has been agent for a two story brick house in the lower part of the city for several years. The house has been full all the time until recently and it would be safe to say not a nickel of rent has ever been paid the agent. The fence was burned, posts and all, and even the holes obliterated; the doors, windows, floor, lathes and every vestige of wood in the building burned. Nothing but the walls and the roof remain. The renters could not borrow a ladder or they certainly would have burned the shingles aud rafters. Just out of town, a mile or so, a poor family obtained permission to occupy a vacant house to remain but one month. The family had good staving qualities, in fact it seemed that "all hell" wouldn't budge them. There are four full grown, hearty, stalwart boys in the family, but not a stick of wood would they cut. A neighbor offered to give half of all they would cut and he deliver it besides, but no, fencing and lat hes were easier to get and burned better. After being deviled almost to death, the owner of the house procured another house for the renters, and was glad to get shut of them by giving five month rent and standing the loss of many dollars damages to his property. N. A. Ledger. A writer in the Louisville Courier-Journal gives some of the current superstitions of Kentucky negroes. If a person passes through a funeral procession, he will die before the oldest one in it. If a dog lies on his back aud howls, it presages an early death in the family. If the longest snake killed in a day's search be suspended from the tree nearest to a parched field, it will bring rain. If it be necessary to turn back after starting on au errand the consequent bad luck may be averted by making a crass in the path with the left forefinger. A stutterer may be cured by creepiug up behind him unawares and knocking him down with a raw beef-tongue just taken from the
beast by an unmarried butcher under 21 years of age. A bloody knife,

A Book for Canvassers. Judge Tonrgeo of North Carolina, the famous author of "A Fool s Errand," and "Bricks without Straw," has added to bis
series of striking historical studies, another work, entitled "A Koyal Gentleman."
when we consider that in a little more than one year, hundreds of thousand) of volumes of this author have been put in circulation among the reading and thinking people of America books deulir.g with the deepest and most important problems of our national life, and yet popular, because set forth in the blazing, tascinating light of fiction we know that the author must be making a profound impression upon his day. There is scarce nn instance in literary history of so sudden a rise to so proud an eminence. "Undoubtedly the chief cf American writers." Troy Sentinel. "Judge Tourgee writes books that make people think." N. V. Sun. "A picturesque, vivid, and passionate story and there is that in it which will attract the most cultivated and fastidious." Cincinnati Timet. "One rises from its perusal with a men tal impression akin to that received from
the performance of a tragic opera." Cultivator and Country Gentleman. Judged by the sale of his books, which has been the most rapid in the history of book-publishing, Judge Tourgee stands to-day tbo moat popular of Americsn writers. A book from his graphic pen is therefore a great literary event. It is safe to say that all who have read "A Fool's Errand" will desire to read "A Royal Gentleman ;" and ns it is to be sold exclusiuely by subscription, thousands will welcome the coming of the canvasser. The book contains 534 pages and is handsomely illustrated with full page engravings. Price $2.00. For particulars address "Weston Hulbert, Publisher, 318 State street, Chicago, Ills. St. Nicholas, for May opens with a charming frontispiece picture by Rosina Emmet, illustrating a timely little poem by Mary Mapes Dodge, entitled An April Girl." "Lord Malapert of

Walter Satterloe has drawn four page-illustrations for some asthetical stanzas, called "Lament of the Cat-tail." The illustrated "Northern Myth" stories are continued with the legend of -The Hoard of the Swarthy Elves." Of interest to many readers will be Deacon Green's report on the "Historical Pi," with the names of the one hundred priae winners, and the long roll of honor. Maty N. Frescott, Margaret Johnson and Mar. garet Vandegrift are among those who contribute poms and sketches, and there are drawings by J. Wells Champney, Walter Shirlaw, Addie Ledyard, J. G. Francis and Jessie McDermott. The Century fob April. The illustrated papers cover a good deal of ground. The third of Mrs. Mitchell's papers on sculpture is devoted to "The Age of Praxiteles." The subject is treated in an expository way, and is illustrated with beautiful engravings by Cole, Kruell, Hits Powell, Evans, Babcock, Shusler, and Tynan. More superb cuts of ancient art
have probably never been made. A piper on "Oddities of Southern Lire," by Henry Watterson, who, after recalling much that was humorous and characteristic in the South of the day of "Simon
