"VYber.-tho blue icebergs, vast and steep, Diiftirg and dashing, crowd the deep. | j Then, t: o, when heaven with clouds is dark, , f And wild winds sweep the vale, ?

The note directed :u a graceful feminine hand was brief: Deah Gcardian I will be at your office at ; j. vn iu the moruing, to consult you upon a matter of importance. " Millie. ;8 " A matter of importance," muttered , Mr. Wilkinson, twisting the note ner- . vously. "Can my fears be true? Has > Cyril Ormsby proposed to my pearl ? I T m afraid he has! And what can I say ? What can I urge against the man, if * 'Millie's own instincts have played her ^ false? Ten o'clock !" j , The last silvery stroke of the mantel- j clock had not died away when the door ! 8 nf the office was opened' by a clerk, and ; ^ 3Iillie*!Bently entered the room. ; . Just a few words to describe the ward j . <>f whom Marcus Wilkinson always; thought as a pearl, a lily, everything j, 1-ure and fair. She was of medium | height, slender and graceful, with a ; ? thoughtful face of exquisite beautv. Very young, only eighteen, Millie e Bently had borne early the sorrows of , 'ife. Her father, having been wealthy, failed in business, and committed suicide. Her mother, delicate and helpless Lad fonght poverty feebly for two years, J and sinking under privation and toil, j , bad contracted a fatal disease. When j, all hope of life was over, the news came ! that Millie's nncle, dying abroad, had j ?.eft a large fortune to his only sister. A '.nil was made by the dying woamn leav- | J ing her own too-lately won independence | , to Millie. and appointing their old friend ) Marcus Wilkinson, guardian to the \. heiress. I Sorrowing, and womanly beyond her I, years, Millie had turned from her own j yrief to a noble endeavor to solace some j j of the trials of those with whom her j own poverty had made her familiar. A j cousin had come at Mr. Wilkinson's re- j juest to make a home for his ward, and i j slie rtilumed many long-interrupted ' j .studies. But a large portion of her time ; ^ wa* spent in the humble homes of those j who had been her mother's friends in the j dark d-.ys of widowhood; and her gentle | charities soon extended far beyond this j i mall circle. | j She had been an orphan two years on I the day when 6he came to seek Mr. j ? vcMi-inonn na iilrAftHv described, and i , the sorrows of her life had lost some of j their bitter sting, leaving only a gentle j ^ sadness behind. . j. "Well, Millie," the old gentleman 11 said, "what brings to me the pleasure of j ^ ^eein g you to-day ?" i " It is about myself," Millie said, the i softest rose-tints flushing her cheeks. "Dear me! I didn't know you ever j T took such an insignificant person into j t consideration at all." "Now, Uncle Marc, please don't j j tease." "She wants something enormous," j said the old gentleman, addressing the t walls. " Whenever I am Uncle Marc, I j. !;now what to expect next." : But just then the kindly man detected signs of trouble in Millie's face; and the I >, a -1 _i. i u jesting voice was turned at uuue tu uu? i of ten-'tr gravity. " What is it, my child ?" i ^ "Cyril Ormsby came to me last even- i ^ mg, aLd he will come nere to-day; but I j wanted to see you first. He wants me c to be his wife, Uncle Marc, and"?she T hesitated here?"you do not like him!" j t " Who told you that ?" " No one; but I see it for myself." | "Well, you are right. I do not like -( him. But my like or dislike has no con-! trol over you." u "No control!" Millie's voice was ; ,, piteous. "Please don't talk so. Icomej6 to you as I would have gone to my ! father." j a " There, dear, I was wrong. Tell me, j ^ then, as you would have told your father, j do you love Mr. Ormsby ?" i ^ " I think he is the noblest man I ever 1 a knew. If you could see him with some i g (>f mv nnor DeoDle. how erentle and court oous he is, you would like him, too. He 8. lias given me so much sympathy in my ? work, Uncle Marc, feeling, as I do, that s the possession of great wealth is but a i r stewardship." I ^ " And so won your love ?" "My respect and admiration, uncle. {_ I caunot yet realize that a man so noble and so good can really desire my com- j panionship and help in his life. But ^ ^ince he does, I am glad and proud to iiave won his confidence." j* " Hem?yes ! Enthusiastic, but heart- j. whole !" was Mr. Wilkinson's mental ; ^ comment. " Suppose you and I go for /a walk?" he added aloud. v "A walk?" Millie fcaid in a tone of surprise. : ? "Yes. I have a friend or two I should n like to have you see. When we come hack I will tell you why I dislike Cyril Orm3by, if," he added, mentally, "yon have not already found out." It was not exactly such a walk as one , ? would have mapped out for a pentle- ' man's invitation to a young, beautiful * girl; but Millie followed its course, * leaning upon her guardian's arm, won- | v loring a little, but never hesitating, pant 1 the respectable portion of the city, to a j quarter known as the "Factory Row,"a 1 place where Mr. Wilkinson had never lf hefor e allowed his ward to go. For there 5 were apt to be fevers and contagious i diseases lurking there. It lay low, and vas unhealthy, and the houses were of the meanest description. "For a noble philanthropist, partly j ' owning these factories and this quarter, j , Mr. Ormsby seems neglectful," said Mr. Wilkinson, dryly. "I have an interest . n the factories, as you are aware, but ; do not own one of these wretched I houses. They are all Cyril Ormsby's." "But," Millie said eagerly, "these people will not let him benefit them. They use his charity for drink; they j nbnse any privilege he gives them, tiil he is disoouraged in his efforts to do I; them any good." " Oh, step in here !" It was a poor place, scantily furnished and cheerless. Upon a cot-bed a woman j lay, in the last stages of consumption, j She looked up eagerly to Mr. Wilkinson. "I hope you are better," he said, ! kindly. "No, I shall never be better. If I ; may <nly die in peace, it is all I ask." " Mr. Ormsby will not disturb you now ?" "Jennie hasgono to him. Yesterday ae sent word that if the rent was not rwady to-day at twelve, out we must go. j I've paid it regularly for five years, but he don't think of that. All Jennie's . made the last month she has had to pay for fire and wood. She's but fifteen, \ and her pay is small." "What do you owe Cyril Ormsby?", " Thirty shillings." " And if he's not paid to-day he will put you out into the street to die!" "He says the workhouse is the place j tor paupers." At this moment a slim, pale girl of flf ?eij oarae in, crying bitterly. ! "Mr. Wilkinson -was out," 6he began; mil then se^iug her visitors, she cried ?agerly, " Oh, Mr. Wilkinson, yon will aot let mother be put in the street. I'U pay every penny, sir, if only you will tvait till she is better, and I can get my full time to work." " Have you seen Mr. Ormsby to-day, | Jennie ?" the old gentleman asked. "Yes, sir. He said ho had no time to aear anv whining. The agent will be ! :iere at twelve, aiicl if the money is not j paid, be will put us out." " Slay I ?" whispered Millie. "Just as you please, my dear. Per- ; laps this dying woman or her child will Irink up your charity." " Hush, hush!" So tenderly, so delicately Millie gave ler charity, that there was only deepest rratitude awakened without the galling sense of obligation. She left more than sufficient for comfort for some weeks,and Dromised to send delicacies for the invalid. No word of herself passed her lips unit they were once more in the narrow itreet. Oh, Uncle Marc," she said, can it )e true that he is so hard, so false to ne?" "Wait," was the brief reply. They went into the wide court-yard in vhose space stood the four great factor-1 es, the joint property of Marcus Wil- I iinson and Cyril Ormsby, long before j livided by the entirely opposite manage- j nent of these two into two distinct de- j )artments?one entirely nnder the con- ! rol of the elder, the other of the young- j :r man. | "Wilkinson's absurd soft-hearted-j less," as Cyril mentally characterized I t, had made this division absolutely j, lecessary." ? But it was not into his own kindly- ; governed, well-ordered departments ( hat he led his ward. He turned into a , mall room, where a pale man was busi- | y writing, and at the same time over- j ooking a long room, where about seven- j y girls were at work before busily j) rhirling machines. ] "Good morning, Watkins," the old n ;entleman said. " I was in hopes that j} 'ou were taking a holiday." " Thank you, sir 1" was the reply in a ; i [ejected tone. " I can't well quit work, j < ir. There's the wife and six little ones, ; ] ou see." I j " Have you told Mr. Ormsby the doc- i j it -J. J ? i or says uiai your mo uepouuD upuu u | ( ew weeks of rest and pure air ?" 11 "Yes, sir. He's not keeping me; but j ( ie says if I go he must fill my place? j < ,nd that, means starvation for my family. 1 ! could never get a new situation, as I < ebleasl am now." " How long have you been here, Mr. ! iVatkin's ?" "Seventeen years, sir. I was with j, Id Mr. Ormsby before you came, sir." j " A faithful servant seventeen years!" i' aid Mr. Wilkinson, in a low tone?;: ' and a few weeks' rest may save his ife 1" At this moment Millie shrank a little learer her guardian. Through the win low from which Mr. Watkins overlooked he loom-room, she could see Cyril )rmsby, walking briskly about, his ,-oice harsh and imperative, finding fault lere and there, and keenly scrutinizing 'very item of the work. Not a face in he long room was brightened by the presence of the master. Fingers worked nore rapidly, eyes were fastened perlistently upon the looms, and every one seemed aware of a stern task-master's ! jaze. But Mr. Wilkinson obeyed the } nute petition expressed in the looks of, lis ward, and led Millie out. rato the ; ride passages again, to another work- ] 'oom. It were too tedious a task to follow svery step of these two as they passed 1 rom room to room, everywhere meefcng some assurance of Mr. Wilkinson's ! >wn hold upon the hearts of the j' hands," and their terror of Cyril; )rmsby's harshness. * j1 Out again amongst the squalid homes, rhere her guardian had no oontrol, but 11 jestowed hi6 kindly charity without os- | entation; and here, more eloquently); han ever Millie heard how cruel a i < Dockeiy were all the schemes of charity j nr? nViiliinthronv that had he?n noured 11 nto her ears. It needed no spoken 1 rords from her guardian to tell her that he noble words uttered to win her were i1 >ut those of hypocrisy, which knew how j t oould best plead its cause with her; One and another, turning to Mr. j1 Vilkinson as to a friend, unaware of the 1 ortufe of their words to the kindly lady ] leside him, told of cruel exactions of ' cork in sickness or trouble, of closest ] alculation of time, of small wages and 1 leavy rents. "If we won't live here and pay, we 1 ;et no work in the factories!" one said, [ rhen asked why she did not seek a more j aaI+.Viv nnnrfmv < " I am doing overtime to pay for my 11 hild's funeral," one said, "fori lost the rages for three days. I stayed by her j< o see her die, and to bury her." ? " I'm uneasy about the rent," another 1 aid, " for I lost a week by a fall on the :e, and it's hard making it up again." Not one word of kindly sympathy, of elp, in trouble or sickness. The 'hands" under Cyril Ormsby were imply human machines to do so much i rork, sick or welJ, or pay the price of J n hour or a day of idleness, no matter i ow necessary. i There was no words spoken as Mr. 1 Wilkinson and Millie walked to the offioe | gain. Once there, the old gentleman j poke, very gravely. i "As your guardian, Millie, I can 1 peak to you no word against Cyril 1 )rmsby. He is a rich man, of good I ocial position, of irreproachable moral i avMifofiA-n o mor? I ^ a business circles is of the highest. A lan who is a good match in every rorldly sense. So much for your guardin. Ab your friend, my pearl, who aves you as your own dead father might iave loved you, who knows every noble mpulse of your pure soul?as that riend, I tell you I would rather see you ying beside your mother than the iroken-hearted wife of such a man as Jyril Ormsby." " I came to you as a friend, as almost father," said Millie, " and I thank you or keeping me from life-long misery. ?o know mv husband such a man as I tow know Cyril Ormsby to be, would, J s you say, break my heart." I < "I would not tell you," said Iter ;uardiau, "for you knew I disliked him, ;' ,nd might have thought that dislike 1 >rejudiced me. But, Millie, tell me j ] ou will not let this day's work shadow 1 'our life. You did not love Cvril, Mil- 1 * ie ?" "No. I reverenced what I believed a < loble, generous nature. That reverence I i mockery, I shall never break my heart i or a man I thoroughly despise, Uncle j: Marc." And so it happened that Cyril Ormsby, i oming to claim the fortune he believed | within hit, grasp, met only Mr. Wilkinson, with Mollie's polite but distinct re- j fusal to resign herself or her fortune to j bis keeping. But he never knew how it was that j Millie learned the true value of his hoi- i low words of charity and philanthropy. ] . j Who Robbed Don Carlos! The authorities at Milan are making J active search to try and discover the ! author of the robbery of the collar of j the golden fleece, belonging to Don Carlos. It appears that the theft took I place in a room at the Hotel de la Ville, : in the city named, while the owner was ! visiting the new constructions in the town. Don Carlos was accompanied by his secretary, and he left his valet in charge of his apartment, a confidential servant who had been in his employ for eight or nine years, and during his mas- 1 ter's absence he remained in the courtyard of the hotel. The prince had plaoed his satchel, which contained a quantity of valuables, in addition to the collar, io a piece of furniture in his room, and the strange circumstance is that on his return he found the drawer and the satchel locked as he had left them. Don Carlos stated to the authorities that on the eve of tbe day when the robbery was discovered, he was satisfied of its presence; twice previously attempts had been made to steal it During his journey the Duke of Madrid was followed by an individual of distinguished appearanoe, accompanied by a domestic; he disappeared on the arrival of Don Carlos ftt the central station. Death in Lire. A remarkable case of death in life is j reported in a late number of Pfluger's J Archiv by Doctor Strumpell. It came | under the notice of the writer at a : medical clinic at Leipsic, and the suf- ; ferer was a youth of sixteen. The skin j of the patient was utterly dead to every 1 sensation ; even a burning taper held to it induced no consciousness. Tho mucous membrane of the body, so far as 1 could be ascertained, was alike insensi-1 ble to touch or feeling. When his eyes ! were closed the patient could be carried j 1XAT*A Uin limUc 111 llUWUli ttuu XIJn HUiUO AU vuv most comfortable positions without the slightest consciousness of the fact, i Even the feeling of muscular exhaustion was lost. Gradually the sense of taste and emell departed with the rest and j amaurosis of the left eye and deaf- j ness of the right ear supervened. In j short, says Dr. Strumpell, here was an j individual -whose only connection with the outer world was limited to two doors of sense, to his one (right) eye and his one (left) ear. Moreover, both those j remaining doors could at any time be I easily closed, and in this way it was j possible to investigate the consequences ! of completely isolating the brain from ! all external stimulation through the: senses. I have frequently made the I following experiment and often showed ! it to others. If the patient's seeing eye j was bandaged and his hearing ear was I stopped, after a few (usually .from two \ to three) minutes the impression of stir- I prise and the uneasy movements which j at first showed themselves ceased, the ; respiration became quiet and regular? : in fact, the patient was sound asleep. Here, therefore, the possibility of artili- j cially inducing sleep at any time to a j person simply by withholding from the j brain all stimulation by means of the j senses, were realized. The awakening ! of the patient was as interesting as the | sending him to sleep. He could be j awakened by an auditory stimulation? I is, for example, by calling into his ! bearing ear ; or by visual stimulation? , by allowing the stimulus of light to fall I upon his seeing eye ; but he could not j be awakened by any pushing or shaking, j [f he was left to himself, he did eventu- ; illy wake up of his own accord in course I Df the day. after the sleep had lasted | many hours?the awakening being due, it might be, to intrinsic stimuli started j iu the brain, or it might be to slight ! external unavoidable stimuli acting i through his still functional sense of or- j gans, and making themselves felt in j :onsequence of the sensitiveness of the ' brain being increased during the repose | ol the sleen. The I'lrate-Fisherman. The fish-market of Havana is said to ; be the finest structure of the kind in the ; world. It also interests the traveler by j its romantic association with the story of! Marti, a reformed pirate and smuggler, j who built it and the "Tacon Theater." j During the administration of Tacon, from 1834 to 1838, smuggling and piracy i had grown so bold in and about Cuba as to defv the Spanish navy sent to sup- j press the outlaws. Their leader was a i man nailed Marti, and for his person, j dead or alive, the governor-general offer- | ed a large reward. One dark night a man was watching i the sentinals pacing in front of the gov- j ernor's palace, Havana. As they turned j their backs and separated for a moment, j the man spraug unobserved through the j entrance. He passed up the broad ! stairs, saluted in an imperious style the j guard there stationed, and passed into j the governor-general's room. The gov- . ernor, engaged in writing, looked up as , the man coolly cast asme nis cioaK, exclaiming: "Who enters unannounced?" "One who has information of the i pirates." "What of them?" said Tacon, earn- j estly. "One moment?I must not sacrifice myself." " You have naught to fear. Even if you be one of them, you will be par- i ioned." , " Will you pardon and reward me if I reveal the lurking-places of the pirates, i ind put Marti into your hands?" "I pledge you my word of honor,") ?aid Tacon. " Your excellency, I am Marti." The cool scoundrel then entered into i in arrangement with the governor for : feli a hetravol of all the smuccrlers and oirates. Under liis guidance, the Span- j .sh vessels sailed to the outlaws' hiding j places, and captured those who were not. slain. Whm Marti returned to Havana, he ! was offered the pardon, which he ac- i :epted, and money, which he declined. { tn lieu of the reward, he asked the mon- j jpoly of selling fish in Havana. It was j granted, and he erected a magnificent stone market. When he became master >f enormous wealth, he built a theater and named it after the governor-general irho had pardoned the scoundrel. ? | Youth's Companion. i I The Effect or Diet on Liquor Ori nking Charles Napier, an English scientific nan, has been testing the truth of Liiebig's theory that liquor drinking is compatible with animal food but not | vith farinaceous diet. The erperiment j was tried upon twenty-seven drinking Dersons with results substantiating the j Liebig theory. Among the most strikng instances of reform brought about jy a change of diet was that of a gen- \ ;leman of sixty who had been addicted ' o intemperate habits for thirty-live pears; nis outunrsts averugeu ujio a veek. His constitution was so shattered ! ;hat he had great difficulty in insuring lis life.

He ; seems to have been very thin at the beginning of the experiment, but by the jlose of the period named had gained i ;wenty-eight pounds, being then of j ibont the normal weight for a person of | ais height.

From this point of view, highly glut- j inous bread would be of great utility, but it should not be sour, such acidity being calculated to foster the habit of alcoholic drinking. A like remark may be applied to sal'.ed food. If we inquire the ' -ause of a vegetarian's alleged (L'sinclrjation to alcoholic 1 lianors we fin*i tnat the carbonaceous starch contained in the macaroni, beans, or oleaginous aliment appears to render unnecessary, and therefore repulsive, carbon in an alcoholic form.?Scientific American. Where tho Hair Oil Went. Mary Bradshawe is employed as a domestic in a well-to-do family at E&les ton square, Boston. Mary is very fond of attending dances, and is away three evenings in a week. Upon these occasions she, like others of her sex, takes considerable pains in doing uji her hair, usiDg freely of oil for that purpose. The family have a gentleman boarder who also has a penchant for hair oil, and leaves it during his absence, upon his dressing case. Recently he had entertained the opinion that tho oil evaporated faster than there was any necesity for, and becoming satisfied that some one else was making free with his property he concluded to test his suspicions. Accordingly he emptied out tke oil, replacing it with the same quantity of glue, to which he added scent enough to give it tone, and leaving it in the usual place, awaited events. He did not have to wait long, however, for early in the evening Miss Mary was heard muttering to herself in her room, and suddenly called her mistress, wko was very much surprised to find Mary's hair matted together in an inextricable mass, and all efforts to put a omb through it were unavailing. The result of the matter wns that Mary was obliged to have her golden tresses cut off close to her head, since which time the aforesaid boarder has not miss d any hair oil from his apartment*, NEWS SUMMARY.

They are to be issued in the name of the peraon who pays the money, and to be registered iu his name, but may bo transferred to any assignee, and may also be registered in the name ot any owner. In thiB reBpect they are equally safe with registered bonds. They may also be assigned in blank, and when so assigned they become coupou bonds, and pass by delivery, like any other coupon bond. This will enable the o#ner to dispose of them when he wishes. The interest is payable at any national bank on presenting the coupon witu the bond. Thov are purchasable with legal-tenders at coin value, and the proceeds are to be applied to redeeming the outstanding bonds bearing higher rate of interest The purpose of the bill is two-fold, first, to give an opportunity for investment of savings, and second, to initiate the policy of placing the debt among our owu jwjjmc.

The Pope of Rome died in that city on the 7th, after a long illnoss. The following is a sketch of his hfe: Pope Pi*s IX?Giovanni Maria Mastai Ferretti?was born of a noble family at Sinigaglia, near Ancona, on May 13, 1792. "IT.t visited South America on a religions mission in 1823. In 1827 he was made Archbishop of Spoleto, and he attained the dignity of Cardinal in 1840. In June, 1846, he was elected by acclamation the successor of Pope Gregory XVI. After the French revolution of 1848, the Italian liberals demanded greater concessions than the Pope was willing to grant. After several violent demonstrations on tho part of the Roman population, Pio Nono escaped to Gacta in disguise in November, 1848. A republic was organized at Rome in 1849. but was subverted by a French army, whioh took Rome in July of that year, and reBtored the Pope. During the war of Aus ria against the French and Sardinians in 1859, the people o' the Romagna and the Legations revolted against the Pope, and the Papal States were annexed to the kingdom of Victor Emmanuel. In January, 1860, the Pope issued an anathema against those who abetted the invasion of his dominions. This was probably aimed at Napoleon III. Rome was declared the capital of the new kingdom of Italy in 1860. Since that date the question of the Pope's temporal power has remained in suspense, as one of the groat problems of European diplomacy. About the 10th of December, 1866, the French army left Rome. The Pope protested against the abolition of his temporal power, but he remained in Rome. He convoked by an encyclical letter an (Ecumenical Council," which met at Rome in December, 1869, to define the dogma of papal infallibility, which, after a long deliberation, waa finally promulgated in Jnly, 1870. From that time to his death the Pope led a comparatively uneventful life at the Vatican. The British House of Commons votod $30,000,000 for the army and navy, amid much enthusiasm, and five English war vessels were ordered to Constantinople. "the Russians occupied positions in the [ vicinity of Constantinople, which put that city completely in their power. The great fortresses of Widdin, Rustchuk, Silistria, Belgradchik and Erzeroum have been evacuated by the Turks. The revolting Kaffere in South Africa have been severely punished by the British troops. The sultan refused to allow the British fleet to proceed to Constantinople, asserting that if he did bo the Russians would occupy the city. Prince Gortschakoff has informed the powers that Russia contemplates sending troops into Constantinople because England and other nations have sent war vessels there for the purpose of protecting their subjects.

Mark Twain's Tight Boots. I had on new shoes. They were number sevens when I started, but were no more than fives now and still diminishing. I walked two hours in those shoes after that before we reached home. Doubtless I could have the reader's sympathy for the asking.

Few of us will ever forget the exquisite hour we were married. Once when I was a callow, bashful cub, I took a plain, unsentimental country girl to a comedy one night. I had known her a day ; she seemed divine ; I wore my new boots. At the end of the first half hour she said : " Why do you fidget so with your feet?" I said : " Did I ?" Then I put my attention there and kept still. At the end of another half she said : " Why do you say, 'Yes, oh, yoB,'and 'Ho, ah, ho, certainly, very true 1' to everything I say, when half the time they are entirely irrelevant answers ?" I blushed and explained that I had been a little absent-minded. At the end of another half hour she said: " Please why do you grin so steadfastly at vacancy and yet look ao sad ?" 1 explained that I always did when I was reflecting. An hour passed and then she turned and contemplated me with her earnest eyes and said: "Why do you cry all the time?" I explained that very funny comedies always made me cry. At last human nature surrendered and I secretly slipped my boots off. That was a mistake ; I was not able to get them on any more. It was a rainy night, there were no omnibuses going our way, and as I walked home burning up with shame, with the girl on one arm and my boots under the other, I was an object worthy of some compassion, especially in those moments of martyrdom when I had to pass through the glare that fell upon the pavement from street lamps.

A Winnepeg (British America) correspondent writes : While a grizzly bsai will, in most instances, run away from r man on getting his wind, unless previously wounded, yet he never hesitates for an instant to attack other animals. The company's officer, who showed me the skins at the fort, related an incidenl which came under his own observation, and for the truth of which he vouched. While serving in the Saskatchewan district, he was one day stalking four buffalo bulls he had noticed quietly feeding at the outskirts of a little wood. While he was yet hardly within range of them another actor appeared upor the scene, a grizzly of the largest size, who, quitting the covert that had concealed him, advanced boldly toward the nearest of the four buffaloes. The bull was too proud to run away from a single enemy?it is not their habit to run except from man. He lowered his heac and prepared to receive the attack. The conflict was over in a moment. Witt one sweep of his paw, the grizzly broke the enormouB neck of his antagonist, and laid him lifeless upon the ground. ! Meanwhile the other bulls had stood I by as spectators, taking no part in the i conflict, and showing no signs of excitej ment or alarm.

A third time the bear adI vanced, with the same result. There j was now but one bull left. He wae younger than the rest, and his horns | were consequently still long and sharp I at the points, instead of bping worn and blunted. Though smaller than his companions, he met the savage grizzly with equal resolution. There was a more protracted fight this time; the brave ! bull fell dead with a broken neck, and the bear dragged himself off fatally gored. He had just strength enough left to crawl into the neighboring bushes, where he soon afterward died. The Origin of Vaccination. All honor to the name of the immortal Jenner, who sleeps in his quiet grave on the prreen cliffs of Folkestone. What ! a glorious morning "for England, liome and beauty" was that of the 14th of May, 1786, the birthday of Vaccination! On that day matter was taken from the hand of Sarah Nelmes, who had been infeoted whilejmilking her master's cow, and this matter was inserted by two superficial incisions into the arms of James Phipps, a htalthv boy of about eighteen years of age. He went through I the disease in a regular and satisfactory manner; but the most agitating part of the trial still remained to be tried. It was needful to ascertain whether he was | free from the contagion of small-pox. This point, so full of anxiety to Dr. Jenner, was fairly put to issue on the 1st of the following July. Small-pox matter, taken immediately from a small? woo />nr*?fnllv inserted bv I pUA puoumo, ?im- v*mV.i.?^ several incisions, bnt no disease for lowed. Now, by this one simple and brave experiment upon the lad James Phipps, Dr. Jenner established a law which the experience of millions upon millions of human beings, in generations since, has only served to strengthen. It is wonderful, too, to think that I there can be a single individual in these j elands who cannot see, at a glance, the simplicity, beauty and truth of this law. There is no contagian fin the world so certain and sure as the contagion of small-pox?not even that of hydrophobia or rabies in the dog. The very emanations or exhalations from the body of any one sick of the small-pox, il breathed by a healthy persoD, are, in many instances, sufficient to induce the disorder; and yet there is this healthy young boy, James Phipps, who receivee 11 t-i the small-pox matter muj ins vor y uiuuu, and still he does not take the disorder i ?CaaselVs Magazine. Drying Flowers in Sand. The Ladies' Floral Cabinet recommends the preservation of flowers is sand, and giveB the iollowing plan oi carrying out the advice : " Take deep dishes or those of sufficient depth tc allow flowers to be covered an inch deep with sand. Get the common white sand, such as is used for scouring pur poses, cover the bottom of the dial with a layer about half an inch deep, and then lay on the flowers with the stemB downward, holding them firmly in place while you sprinkle more sand over them, until all the places betweer the petals are filled and the flowerf out of sight. A broad dish will accom! modate quite a large number. Allow I sufficient sand between; set the dish ir a dry, warm place, where they will dr\ gradually, and at the end of a week pour off the sand and examine them. II there is any moisture in the 6and il must be dried out before using again, or fresh sand may be poured over them. Some flowers will requiro weeks to dry, while others will become sufficiently dry in a week or ten days. By thif simple process flowers, ferns, otc., art preserved in the proper shape, as weL1 as in their natural color, which is fai better than to press them in books.'

As the scholar sees in the vain bat beautiful ]}] mythologies of the ancients the embodied expressions of the hungry human soul, blindly g groping after the Infinite, so the physician sees j in that popular myth ofthe sixteenth ceutnry lii the fountain of perpetual health and youth? an expression of the longings of snlTering hu- ? manity for a remedy that should forever proj vent the incursion of disease. The wilds of 5 ! Europe were ransacKPa lor tau wuuuetim fountain, and Ponce de Leon sought for it in the cypreHH swamps and tangled everglades of our sunny Florida. Men have searched for it _ everywhere and anywhere but where it really is ?in the human body itself. The blood is the " real fountain of perpetual health and vouth. When this source is corrupted, the painful and 5* sorrow-producing effects are visible in manv shapes. The multifarious effects in which it manifests itself would form subjects upon which I might write volumes, fiat at all the varied forms of disease which depend upon bad blood are cured, or beat treated by such medicines as take up from this fluid and ex crete from the system the noxious elements, it is not of practical importance that I should tr describe each. For instance, medical authors it describe about fifty varieties of akin disease, ? bnt as-they all require for their cure vei7 aim- ot ilar treatment it is of no practical utility to _ I know just what name to apply to a certain i form of skin disease, so you know how best to ? : cure it. Then again, I might go on and de- fi scribe various kinds of scrofulous sores, fever sores, white Bwellings, enlarged glanda, and ulcers of varying appearance ; might describe how virulent poison may show itself in Yarlous p, forms of erruptions, uloers, sore throat, bony m tumors, etc.; out as all these various appear- w ing manifestations of bad blood are cured by a *' uniform means. I deem such a course unnecessary. Thoroughly cleanse the blood, which ~ is the great fountain of life, and good digestion, a fair skin, buoyant spirits, vital strength and soundness of constitution, will all return to u.s.
