Saved by a Ureezb ?Tbere is cer? tainly a providence whioh protects lovers, as druukeu men are protected. The man io a weary state of inebria? tion ia rarely injured by a fall, and a receut incident in Paris would indicate tbat lovers are equally fortunate when life aud limbs are iu danger. The he? roine of this inoident was a girl who lived in a room ou tbe third fljor of a building on the Boulevard Meuilmou tant, who was so unfortunate as to quarrel desperately with her lover iu her apartment. The woman of auy nationality when angry at a mau is prone to seek ber own injury by way of vengeanoe ou the fatthlesH wretch, aud French women have the trait, in common ? with their sisters of other countries. Tbe young French girl mentioned, made perfectly furious in some way by ber lover, dashed to tbe window, and, ere he oould stop her, leaped through it headlong to tbe pavement, three stories below. Tbe horrified - man rushed down to tbe street, expecting to find the mangled remains of tbe woman be had injured, but be didn't find tbe remains in just tbe oondttion anticipated. Ue found au unharmed aud still mad womau, ready to receive bim with all tbe honor of war. The story of the apparently miraculous escape was simple. Tbe girl iu jumping from the window went feet foremost, and to this owed ber life. Tbere was a bard wiud blowing, and it transformed ber ample skirts mto a balloon on tbe instant, letting the young lady down gracefully and gradually into a snow-bank. And so there is uuother very literal illustration of tbe soundness of the proverb that "it's no ill wind which blows nobody good." Farming on a Hoob Scale.?Dr. Hugh J. Glenn, a native of Augusta County, Va., but now a resident of Juciuto, Culusa County, Cel., raised and harvested the past season, ou bis own farm, 600,000 bushels of wheat. This would load eighteen 1,000 ton ships, or 300 oanal boats. All this wh.-at he has now in his own ware houses, ready for shipment when tbe water in the Saorameuto River rit es sufficiently. Tbe doctor pays 890,000 freight to put his wheat in Sau Fran? cisco. The doctor is a wonder to the agricultural world and to himself, lie runs uinety gang-plows and a whole County's population in the harvest field, with a dozen thrashers. His farming is not confined to wheat alone. He markets 8100.000 worth of stock each year. Dr. Glenn is a practical farmer, and manages all bis immense busiuess himself. He can meud a truce and make a key to an ox-box with bis jack knife just as easy as drawiug his check for 8100,000, which he cuu do every day in tbe week. Tbe insatiate assessor has begun to circulate his tax blanks, in wbioh tbe unhappy property-holder is ordered to report not only everything be has tbat is properly taxable, but all the bad debts that are due him, tbat they may also be taxed. Taxing a man for tbat which ho has not, and which ho in all probability will never get, is a refine? ment of cruelty wbioh might justify rebellion, let alone perjury, aud it will serve no one but tbe dishonest tax? payer, who ia already fat from shifting his burdens to tbe shoulders of tbe tux-payer who is honest. The high? way robber may be honorably met and overcome, but this tsx blsnk whiob is thrust into people's faces has tbe Slate behind it, ana no good oitiseo, even if be is not afraid, wishes to re? sist his Stats. 500 dosen fresh eggs just received and for sals at reduced price, at Hardy Solomon's. M A Mthtkbious amd TbAQIO CONFLICT.

The barbarous method of the detective* is generally condemned." A Sieqular Canb of Conscience ? A few days eitioe a man died iu the alms house at Richmond, Yu , leaving $800 in money and other property, the money being uu deposit in New York. 1'liH property is bequeathed to relatives iu Eugland aud Ireland, but a codicil i? left directing his executors, before carrying into executiou the bequests made in the will, to pay to the follow* tug insurance compauies of London. Eugland, to wit: To the Atlas Fire sod Life Assurauce Company, ?100; to the Fbceuix Iuhurauoo Compauy, ?100; to the Sun Insurance Company, ?100; to re-imborse them for money received by the deoeased iu Liverpool iu tbe'yeur 1840, to wbioh he believed he was not striotly entitled. The dec-ased, whose name is not given in the Richmond papers, is said to have been a man of culture, and was for some time a con? tributor to several prominent Northern journals. He was a very grave aud diguifiod man, and perfectly tempo rate. The will is in his own hand? writing, and is expressed iu ntrictly technical language. He wus uu Irish muu, and lived iu Charleston, S C, for some yeurs. ? ? - Tho Iron' Age nays tbut a wedge or plate uf iron uas been discovered im? bedded in the masonry of the great pyramid.

But the piece of iron found iu the great pyramid xhows that this metal wus produced aud wrought in tho age of King Cheops, whiou is placed by some authorities an fur buck us 5,40'J years ugo. The MmiJunty ol earlier inscriptions on stone to tlio.se made in tho time of King Cheops, suggests the ?Opposition that iron may have bft-a iu use more thau li.000 years ago. Ciiuicuii Discipline?Tho so verity with which Archbishop Manning is en? forcing his will upon tho Catholics iu England is shown by the fact that in the recent "Catholic Director}*," pub? lished iu London, tho name of Lord Cutnoys has beet- stricken from the list of Catholic peers. Lord Camoys bus for a long time been one of tbo most celebrated of Catholic noblemen. When Archbishop Manning published bis letter on the Vatican decrees his lordship dissented from tho Episcopul construction of the doctrine of Pup.il infallibility.

This was done over a year before any notion was taken by tbe Continental Congress. Rkturnino Hons.?Quite a number ot young aud tniddle-aged men who had emigrated from this to other States, for the purpose of improving their condition, are mentioned by the oaper? of their variooa localities as having retorted home, fully satisfied with their observations, and believing that, after all. South Carolina is tbe best State to live in. Tho British Great Northern Railway recently killed a Mr. Pym?a descend? ant of Long Parliament Pym?and had to pay 875.000 io his widow. Pym was '?tenant fur life" of au income of 825.000, und his death left bis widow without resources, so that tbe sum, large as it seems, is only an assessment of three years on the, victim's life.
