The night that Nelj-o Seymour died his brother and Tonv Pastor smashed thr stone and scattered tho tiny fragments.

CliMrlie Komh. Mr. Cidstlan K. Rosa in a letter to Mr,

Nelf, in regard to the York count v Hoss- . . -. .1 I. a i ins regret states that he had not Jle then gave not rasemb e ! Ina ideal of Charlie : lie had been carried oil uy .New l ork men, and he could not expect to lind Charlie with anv but the criminal classes, and he did not know as lur as ne could gather that the Snyder oujougeu to mat class : bes des that, he could not expect ttransrers to recognize him, and that he expected the bov to be MbJe to remember alotit himse f. etc. In his letter to Mr. Young, he thanks him tor me interest be has taken, and then states that he has received a number el :opies of the Evening Disnatch from his omce, and some from the authorities of tho city of Philadelphia. He nay that a number of letters have been nvelveA by the mayor of Philadelphia, from prominent citizens of Xew York, who still believe the bov to be his son. and who are not satisfied with this brieferimiuation. Jleforel went to the depot to see tho child," says Mr. IJons, "I felt sure the boy could not be mine. I confees that I might be mistaken in recog nizing the child after so long a time has passed.' Mrs. Hoss he describes as interested and anxious concerning this child. Wo think that he is mistaken about the child yet beinsr with thieve. When Mosheraud Douirlasi ware killed it was certain that the child was still living. It is cquhlly certain that alter that he was not killed, for nooue would have dared to put him out of the wav. nor could they have had anv motive foV it. Some day, and we sneak almost with prophetic gift, the child will be restored to Ids parents, but it would be pitiful, her lover, almost touched him en life's great iiixufvnjrs. nuu uuiy Knew uin wnen me aHgel of annunciation etoed bv his bed. slde-these parents should mm bv their lt . - ciiuu, noiu nun wuuin inetr grasp, re lease him because the vears bad chanced his appearance and sealed his tnemorv. or lie was found in an unexpected place, let their treasure slip from their clean. Hud go back to the desolation of hoping. uuii iuiuiui tv k uv nub wish to mace Mr. Rosa trouble, but of this we are mfraid. Ihe Snydora can not show where they obtained the child ; in their family record every other child's birth is registered, but not this one. When Mr. Uoss finds his child it will be in an unexpected place, not among thivs,for they no longer nave use lor hnn, but in such a place as this. A gentleman who has seen this child, and who has known Mr. Ross for years, says that he resembles him in many respects. Ex. It has been apparent for some time that between Hayes and Grant there is growing up a bad feeling, and, it is said, trom a very small affair. It was herald ed by radicals of the goodish sort, son after Hayes' inauguration, that no wines were to be used iu the white house. The New England Methodist conference in dorsed it, with some pomp to the presidential pretender. Now, here is where urautri irrievancos comes in. He ava it is all the talk of a hypocrite; thattbe'ro is just as much wiuo used now iu tho white house as ever; that it has been served at every public dinner since the inauguration ; that it was used at the dinner given Duke Alexis, and also at the one more recently given to the Lou isiana commission. Grant always did do and say just as lie pleased, and thinks now that Hayes is anxious to make the impression that Giant used an immense amount of liquors during his adminis tration, but that now the red ribbon floats from the top of the presidential mansion, with all that it implies. Hence forth, no more brant ism in any shape. fheicfose, Grant is naturally angry. Indianapolis Sentinel. Civil service reform on the Hayes plan has just been demonstrated at Highland Falls. Y. Mrs Grace Har rington, the widow of Lieutenant Harrington, who was lost iu the Custer massacre, was appointed postmistress. was sworn in, gave bonds and awaitod her commission. To iter dismay and sorrow the appointment was revoked in favor ot the present incumbent, wbo has held the position for sixteen years and is very wealthy. Mrs Harrington has two small children, and beside her pension of $15 per month has comparatively nothing. Add yo.t Hayes and Key blubber ami sigh over tho poor soldiers and their families.

A tfpenctw County Widow UneftrthH ajUHX) of Sllvr Coin. Mr. Philip Kuler who relumed from trip through Spencer coanty re-terdjtv, brings with him the partirulsrs of th recovery of a lot of fdlver coin tht had been buried many year ago. During the excitement of'the war In lMO.aiHiTd German farmer who had hoarded up $800 in silver half dollsrs concJiHied to bury it in order to guard againt any attempt that might he made to roh him of his coin. So taking his wife into hi confidence, the man, whose name no omitted to mention, was Samuel T,vhden, proceeded to a anot in thegnrdrn adjoining the henae and buried it ever al feet benalh the surface. Here they let it remain through all these year, though at Ane time dnriHgtbe war when gold reached tMO. their buried treasure might have brought them 1,400 clear. The husband died recently, and his wife thinking that the eein should he brought from its hiding place, dug it up. It had turned all black, and every pi ecu was

corroded and rusty. Mr. Kuler wa shown the coin and brought a piece of it dawn with bint as a curiosity. Evansvilla Courier. Bishop Lynch, who lias been lectur ing in Boston,- relates a story which came under his ebeervation forty years ago, and illustrates the difference be iween Lnglisli and America character. Liviue in the west a neoc widow strove to maintain herself and twe voung sons, but her health failed, and starvation stared her in the face. Under the English system the family would have been sent to the poor house, which would have blighted their lives forever. A kindly neighbor took one of the boys into hie family and gave sueh asftisiaucn to the mother ae enabled her to face the world. In a few yeari the) beys were able to maintain their mother from their own earning!. One of the beys is today the General of the United States army; tne ether ia Secretary of the Treasury.
