A VERMONT WIDOWER'S DILEMMA
-A young' -'widower in Windham
County, Vt., as we read in one of th
papers of jthat State, greatly in nee<
of a hoaseke'eper, rode day after daj
in a vain; search. At last, almos
discouraged, he drew up in front o
a small dwelling among the hill's, anc
asketltho btKjtomar'y question : ' Can
you ,t?l? where. ? .c?n get a woman tc
do work in a farm house ?' ' Where

Tbe Jory ' li?wsv
The following is from the Beau
fort Republican. It is comdemna
tion mildly put :. - .
Outside of the general election
law*, feere-id not one so open to criti
cism and abuse, as that . relating to
the drawing of Grand Juries: In
one sense it-gives the Jury Commid-:
.sioners a peculiar discrimination, J?y
, selecting such " as they may think
set of men who are as1 innocent of
"ai^habetic^kTiiowrfe'dge" ot" cliirograr
^Irjras if ?hey^wf?e inhabitants' Vj^tr
some yet um?isc?v?red country. This
is all wrong. A juror i has more
power than the Judge on I the 'bench
-the life of some numan being is
entrusted to his most solemn-^ancr
sacred deliberation. Yet if he have
not .within him the elements of
knowledge-rto ^see anti ^oemprehend
the mass of evidence given him upon
which to form a verdict, who would
care to trust their case in nis hand?
Admitting, that the foreman. of ?he
?jury is competent, it renders th? casie
j much the worse, for the leaning i of
j the jury will very naturally be warp
I ed by the opinion of such an officer,
' be it" for or against justice. The
i most competent, we don't say educa
ted, men should be chosen-men of
intelligence, capable of sifting a grain
of truth from a mountain of error.
The present Grand Jury is a j*e
markable instance of this indiscrimi
nate selection. Nine out of the twelve
cannot read nor write.
As an illustration of their igno
rance we have only to cite one case.
In examining the books of the County
Commissioners, they opened them,
their faces beaming with the wisdom
of a sage, commenced deliberately to
turn the" leaves, and running their
fingers over the, to them, -hierogly
phic scrawls, giving now and then a
satisfactory grunt, and opferV reaching
the end of said record, they were
informed that they had- opened the
books upside down, and in their rus
tic simplicity they flattered them
selves that in them was concentrated
the vision of an Argus-r-afid' that .if
til ere .were errors they shpuTd* defect,
them. What rodm is there for com
ment? or rather what an opportuni
ty to rebuke the ignorant legislator
forrp&ssing such-laws. We are not
looking for perfection in our jury
system, tfOido we approve bf exclu-"

In she city ist-at poor family, ,t?fc. p
father of which is a Catholic, while,
the mother is a Protestant. Recent
ly their daughter, aiiesptiful child of j
about fi^e years, ?B^rttenTy sickened
and died. During-i5-aickness it was
attendeefby a physician-, who was .ac
companied. ..on every visit by his
daughter, a girl of fifteen y?ars,. who
evinced the greatest. solicUude for the]
little sufferer," When creath came
with its cold, icy .,grasp, this young
lady was. there,., a?d. rwith tender
hands closjed the ^innocent eyes and
arranged the-form/ of th?" -babe who
had been called born?. The funeral
took place the next day, and, owing
to conflict T>f religious opinion be
tween the parents, neither priest nor
minister was called m. The young
lady went to the house of mourning,
and, in company with the grief-strick
en parents, followed the Gmains to j.j
the cemetery. Arriving there, the
little body was placed by-the side -bf
its narrow resting place to allow of a
last look at the sweet face which all
loved so Well. With a low. wail th?
poor mother threw herself down by
it, and with passionate kisses sought,
as it were, to recrdl life to the cold,
motionle-^d clay. Every one was
visibly affected by this outburst; and
when she called upon the^pung lady
to offer a prayef .ior her'jSopr darling,
all reverent^y^tt^er^d>-and ErneJt
to the g^nch ^be'701mg .k'cty^
without a^thoment's^esitatio?, . knelt
and commenced praying. At first
her voice was visibly affected by?mo-:'
tion, but; as she-proceeded ahe.8e.emed
to forget sl?f and surroundings^- and
poured for^.h -"such a fervent-- and
touching appeal .to the ? Throne of j
Grace that there;was not, when she
ceased, a ""dry'eye or an unmoved
heart in the entire assembly. When
she had finished the body was care
fully lowe'ed into the grave, above
which now grows some beautiful
flowers, mementoes ? of the love of j
the fair young lady.
A Desperate Case.
When the green-eyed monster
plants his envenomed fangs in the
vitals of a West Tennessee youth it
is always best, for the whole neigh
borhood to look out for squalls. Some
days ago there was a densely attend
. ed wedding not very far from Jack
son, in that end of the State. Among
the very few who were ' ^present ;
on the occasion was a-yourf^ man '
who was known to be desperate
ly in* love with the bride, and. whose
heart and ' hand she had "rejected
With scorn." In the midst of the'
? marriage ceremony the ? house, wias
suddenly shaken to its very founda

order to be reveneedJiaci, piled up a
number of shefls unrJeV th?":smoke
house and touched them off with
train of powder.
The scene which follbW?d the ex
plosion is said to have beggared de- .}
scriptlon. The smokehouse, with its
several "thpus"an.d pounds .of~baconr j
was hurled high into the ais and
scattered to the four winds of heav

her adored oner.th.e rest of the calico
screamed', the "men swore, and for
some little time the wildest conster
nation prevailed. Meanwhile the
young marr, with IOVBOUI steeped ini
the sweets of revenge, took to his
heels and never has been seen since.
Young ladies of West Tennessee who
are about to marry should have their j
rejected lovers bound over to keep
out fromlitnder the smokehouse witn
thieir/ shells.

young lady demanded his expulsion*
as a condition of her remaining. Ex

was^.not 'looking' -at * her? '"though

The King's Mistake.
A correspondent of the Lumber
ville (N, ' -J.) Beacon says, a short
time Bince, while., staying at I th?
borough of B., he overheard thefol-i
lowing, which he thinks too good to
be lost :
A number of politicians* all of
whom were seeking oiiice -uftikr -the
Swernment, vwere. seaieo^ under j a
t^^rji?jlorch!, J-^viJieA.. an^old toper ]
named Joel D., a person "wk o" was
very loquacious; when corned, but ex
actly the_ opposite ?when sober, said
that he would tell them a jstory.
They told him "^r|"awij,"^h*e|e

A certain king-I don't recollect
his ^ame-fha^'ji, philosopher upon
whose judgment he always, depended.
Now it happened one day that the
king took it into his head to go hunt
ing, and summoned his rebles, and
making the necessary preparations,
he summoned the phif?spher, and
isked him if it would rain. The
philo8phe' nd him-"it would not,
md they ^?3d:- :While journeying
ilong-th aet\a countryman mount

"He'advised them'to return, "for,"
said he, "-if will, certainly rait'.
They Smiled contemptuously upon
bim, and then passed ^>n. Before
they had gone many \miles, however,
they had reason to--regret not having
taken the rustic's advice, aa a shower
coming up drenched them to the
skin. When they had returned to
the palace, the king reprimanded the
philospher severely." J . iii* \
" I met a countryman," said he,
'and he knows a'great deal more
;han you. He told me it would
rain, whereas you told me it would
not." . ; . . ?Hi c I O
The king then gave him his walk
ing papers and sent for the country
mah,<*who soon made his appearance.
" Tell me," said the king, " how
fou'kn?w it wo?ld rain."
" I did not know," said the rustic,
' my jackass told fofe so."
" And how, pra^,did he tell you ?"
isked the king.
" By pricing ?p L;s e'??rs, your

made a great'ftistake.''
"How so?" inquired the auditors.
"Why, ever since that time," said
Joel, with a grin on his phiz, " every
jackass wants office."

and availed themselves of his wonderfully efhea
cio us medicines, they would not have fallen.
Dr. Schenckbasitabis own cajo proved that
wherever strmdent vi tall tv remains, that vitality,
by his medicines and his directions for their us o ia
quickened Into healthful vigor.
In this statement th ere 1? n othln-r presumptuous.
To th e-fal th of the 1 uval I dis madarn representation
that is nota thousand Um? substantiated by living
and visible works. The th?. Try of-the, care by Dr.
Schenck'a medicines ls as simple-.?? lt is unfailing.
Itsnhllosophy requires no argument, Jtlsself-as
sar?bg, self-convincing. ' ' .....
The Sea-weed Tonio anpV Mandrake Pills ara tho
first two v capons with which the citadel of the
malady 1? Assailed. Two-thirds of the caaes of con

.with au its qrvggHggfgfc .
The Mandrake Pills ara composed of one qr Na
ture's noblest girts-the Podophlllum Peltatam.
They possess all the bloottanrching,' alterativa
properties of calomel, but, unlike calomel, they

catlon is now.progressingwithout its prc vloua tor

seen to bc at hand. There ls no more lian lenee, no
exacerbation of the stomach. An appetite sets in.
Now comes the great sos Blood Purifler ever yet
given by au Indulgent, ftttesi lo strflarlng man.
Scben<acVPulmomc SyrupcOmes in to perform Its
? funcUomand to hasten.and complete':?e cure. It
enters ac once upon Its'work." Nature dan not be
cheated. It collects and ripens: tho Impaired and
diseased portions of the lungs. In the'form'of
authoringa, it prepares them Torie* pectnration, and
lo ! In a very short time the malady ls vanquished,
? the rotten thronet that 1t?ooc?pled Sb tu no vated and
made new, and the patient,in ali the dignity of re
gained vigor, steps forth 'to enjoy'the manhood or
.womanhood, that was ?,,... -Sjnvr '? . - oi)

The second thing is, the patients most stay 'm' a

that course lose their patient, rf thetr lungs aro
badly diseased; and yet, because they are m the
house they must not sit down quiet ; they must walk
about the room as mach and as inst, as the eireoxth
will hear, to get tsp ft gooddnjtfliMoWrWooi The
toT?^TnK s???1
appetite, and ls the great polpt to gitn.
' ' To'despair of cure after such ?vidence of Ita pos
sibility in the worst ci sos, and moral certainty in
all others, is sinful. Dr. Schenck's personal state
ment to- thc 'Faculty of Ks^m-ouro' was hvthese
modest words: .,. v. ., ,
. "Many years ago I was in thc last stages'of con
sumption ; confined to my bed, and at ono Urn? my
?)h yslclans tboughtthat I could not U voa week; then,
ike a drown tug man catching, at. st rawsr I heard o f
and obtained the preparations which I now oder to
the public, and they made ttjnerfect cure of me. It
seemed to me thai I could feel them penetrate my
whole system. They soon ri nene i matter m my
lungs,and I would spit np more t -aa plntof offen
sive yellow matter every morning for a long time.
"As soon aa that began; Ao anbtlde, my. bough,
fever, pains, and nigh ts wents aU began to leave me,
and my aj?petite became so great, that lt was with
difficulty that I could keep from eating too much.
: I soon'gained my strength / and have grown in flesh
ever since. , .?.
MI was weighed snorfly' after'my recovery," added
the Doctor, "then looking Uke a mere skeleton; my
weight was only ninety-seven pounds; my present
weight ls two hundred ?nd-twenty-?ve (22s) pounds,
and for years I have enjoyed.unintem. ?ed health."
. . Dr. Schanck has- discontinued hts professional
visits to New York and Boston.. He or his som Dr.
JVH- Schenck, jr., still continue to see patiente at
their Office, No. 15 No rthSixth Street, Philadelphia,
every Saturday from 9 'AJC to 3 Flit Those who
