Remarkable Mirage.?A correspondent of the Rochester Express j writes as follows: The undersigned was one of the hundreds a tMount Hope on Sunday afternoon who witnessed, probably, ODe of the most perfect and sublime mirages ever seen in this, country. On the entire north sky as I far as the angle or bison, was lifted the blue waters of Lake Ontario, while reflecting from her bosom could be seen the mountains, hills, valleys, bays and rivers on the Canada shore inland for miles. The coast could be plainly seen over a stretch of fifty miles, and so perfect at one time thut the forests could readily be distinguished. The reader can form some idea of its grand." cur by knowing that a country separa~ ted from Rochester by a lake seventy to odc hundred miles in width was as if suddenly, by the great hand of its Creator, painted upon the heavens so plain as to be seen from a standing point one huodrod miles distaut. Gentlemen present who were familiar with the Canada shore could readily distinguish Riah Lake, Belvidere, and other pro. minent points in Canada. The lake looked as though it had by a great tidal wave rolled upon Rochester, had covered one entire half of the city, as no building could be seen north of Main street, or any laud between the city and the lake- , Tiie Narrowest Gauge Yet for a Railroad.?A new stylo of ra'lways will shortly coine before the public in England under the title of the Pennicr system. A Bingle row of piles carries a continuous girder, on which the train runs, the carriages hanging down on each side to within d short distance of the ground. The carriages are so arranged that inequality of weight on one side to the extent of a ton will not affeot the notion. The small quantity of land required, cheapness of construction, and speed, are advantages claimed for it. A fine deer, evidently closely pursued on the Lexington sido of the Congaree, swam the stream, yesterday, and approached near enough to the Penitentiary walls to he killed by one of the sentineis. < * A Mother's Death. Few who . have lost their first and "dearest friend" can read the following with unmoistened eyes: Death comes unsought to every.boardj and at its speotral bidding some beloved one goes forth to his mysterious home. -. > Time and philosophy may teach resignation unto hearts made desolate by its coming, bat they ean never fill the vacancy therein, when she that was our mother uo longer cast a halo about our darkened hearth. A mother's place?so loved, so worshiped?once empty, must bo ever so. A breast once panged by a mother's death. no medicine can reach with healing. No mind, however sacred, no heart, however hardened, can ever forget the gentle being whose sufferings begot his life. A mother is truly our guardian spirit upon earth. Her goodness shields and protects; she walks with our infaney, our youth and mature age ?ever sheltering us with her absorbing love, and expatiation our manysins with her blessed prayers. And when oar another, with all her burden of love, her angelic influence, her saluted care, ceases her beauteous life, bow much we los9 at home, of happiness, of heaven, no one can reckon ; for our mother was none bat oars, and we only can know how holy she was ?how sacred her memory must ever be. But may we not borrow cousolution from the thought that oar loss is heaven's gain; that surely one angel watches over us, erasing with grateful tears the record of our sin, and mak? ing easy our path to her with blessed and blessing prayers. The Loyal Ku Klux.?There are serious grounds for Federal interference in the affairs of the loyal city of Cinoinnati. Col. Win. Travis, a colored gentleman, who slings a graceful razor, digs out a corn or bunion with neatness and despatch, and is withal, no slouch in military affairs, saw fit, in the exercise of his rights and privileges as a freeman, to vote for a Democrat. On Monday night, while peacefully sitting on bis door-step, smoking a cigar, and revolving various schemes for tho redemption and. regeneration of his race, Mr. Travis was "yanked" into the street by a body of colored Ku Klnx, and most foully and inhumanly mauled. The mid'night assassins smote him in the ribs, barked his shins, punched his. head, tweaked as much of his nose as tbey could get hold of, and put mice under his eyes. In the meantime the police watched the proceedings from a neighboring corner aid t?rned a deaf ear to poor Travis' roars of anguish. We call upou Congress to do something for Cincinnati and for Travis. Of what benefit is the privilege of suffrage to an African, if he cannot vote for whom be pleases f Fill Your Lami>s in the Morning.?Scarcely a week passes but we read accounts of frightful accidents from kerosene lamps exploding, and killing or scarring for life, men, women i and children. A simple knowledge of the inflammable nature of the liquid will probably put a stop to nearly all the accidents. As the oil burns down in j the lamp, highly inflammable gas i gathers over it) surface, and as the oil i decreases the gas increases.?When the oil is nearly consumed, a slight jar | will inflame the gas, and the explosion < is sure to follow?death and destruc- i tion. A bomb shell is no more to be i dreaded. Now, if the lamp is not allowed to burn more than half way I down, such accidents are almost im- i possible. Always fill your lamps every 1 morning, and then you need never i fear an explosion. .?? i Marriage or Gen. Fitzdugh Lee. i ?The nuptials of Geo. Fitxhugh Lee I and Miss Nellie Fowle, daughter of 1 the late George D. Fowle, were solem* ! ized Wednesday afternoon at the reti- < donee of Captain P. B. Hooe, on Washington street Alexandria. Rev. ? ?' ? . --i T? lf_ XT James T. JOUDfiiOD ana xvev. iur. nurton, rector of St. Paul's Choroh, officiated. The guests comprised many "i of the most distinguished officers of j the late Army of Northern Virginia. Gen. Jubal A. Early, Gen. W. H. < F. Lee, Gen. Lomax, Gen M. B. Young of Georgia, Gen. M. I). Curse, Capt. Haxall, and R. E. Lee, Jr., 4 were among those of Gen. Lee's comrades who were present. It was ex* pectcd that ex.President Davis would ]>e present, but he did not arrive. The editor of the Grand Junction i (Iowa) Headlight advertised that he wmild take "a trood dos in payment i for a year'* subscription." The next day twenty-three dogs were taken to his office, and two days afterward a score or more farmers, living at distances of from eight to twenty miles, appeared to subscribe for the paper, ten> dering dogs in payment. And,-to cap the olimax, the Mayor of the city has notified him that a tax of $1 must be paid on every dog owned in the place! The Princess Louise is said to be very pretty, with faoinating manners and beantifnl month and teeth. She, like her Bister, paints beautifully, and is also a sculptor. Eight of Louise's pictures have been exhibited in London this season, and sold for the benefit of tbo hospitals. Some pieces of bur sculpture have also boon exhibited j in'London. Making Love?A Warm Response. In Seville, which in popularly believed to be in Spain, there ie ia use a most felicitous invention in the way of making love1?clandestinely. After dark, young cabdlerot steal beneath tbeir lady's lattice?which, perchance, is in the third stpiy?and softly un? screwing the handle of their walking sticks, proceed to extract from the same, whioh are hollow, length after length of hollow tube, screwing them together after the fashion of a Japanese fishing pole, or the old apparatus wherewith sweeps clean chimneys. A mouthpieee is fitted into each end and one raised to the window above. Soon, by aid of this improvised speaking tube, two souk with a certain unanimity of thought and .two hearts with a Dussible unison of nulsation are softly * * _ communing. Now all this is veiy nice, seductively romantic and all that sort of thing, but mark what the knowledge of it brought to a oertaia youth of Baltimore. He had read or heard of it, and happening to have a surreptitious affection for a young and wealthy lady, which she as surreptitiously reciprocated, he deters mined with her oonnivance to avail himself of it. He got a tin pipe of the desired length, made by a tinner, and in each end of it plaeed, for want of a better month piece, a funnel. Deli- ' cious conversation went on, he sit' ting on the top of a water barrel and she leaning from her window above.? They would converse for hours, and exchange all the soft nonsense in the world, and then he would unship his < apparatus, put the fuanels in his pocket, wrap the pieces up in a newspaper, and ea home in a condition of etherial L bliss. The coarse of true love never# did ran smooth, and one evening the old gentleman, smoking in the Dock garden at an nnsaal hoar, saw the young gentleman arrive, fix up his apparatus, and commence .his soul-communing operations. ' He made aphis mind in a minute. , He went into the kitchen and asked for a pitcher of boiling water, It was handed to him and of he posted ?p stairs. ( Just as he reached his daughter's door he commenced calling to her. So telling her lover to wait a moment, she eame to the door. 'Nellie, my dear, . run up to my room and get my epecta- , cles; I'll wait here till you come back." She disappeared up stairs, and he stole cautiously to the window. The minute he touohed the funnel the amorous and unsuspecting youth clapped his mouth to it to resume where he had broken 1 off?'my darling, you cannot imagine 1 how?' Just then the old gentleman 1 commenced assiduously filling that fun- 1 ncl with hot ttater, and the rest of that miserable youth's eeutence was never ' ' * tf_ f i beard, lie wore Hour on djs iaoe for a fortnight after, and declines to go into society just at present. Two Hundred Girls on Fire? Remarkaly Exciting Scene in a Church.?A very remarkable Sfcene was witnessed in St. Mary's Church, Williamsburg, last Sunday. It came very near proving a tragic matter; fortunately, however, the activity of the congregation, aided by the pastor, prevented any serious consequences. At tho mornirg services it was arranged to have four hundred young girls to partake of their first communion, and they marched into the church at the appointed hour. The sight was imposing, and there was a largo conn gregation drawn together by the services. The children were arrayed in white dresses, wore thin white gauze veib, and each carried a lighted candle.? When the head of the little processionhad reached the furthermost end of the church, one of the girls dropped her candle, and in stopping to recover it set fire to her veil. The flame spread with lightning-like rapidity. Instantly 4 j ka a great commuuuu utuoc, uuu uuu uvfore the congregation had arisen to its j feet the sheet of fire had spread half- ? way along the line, and the veils of two hundred girls were on fire. The utmost consternation was produced. Those whose ' veils were on fire ran to the main alter 1 where Father McDonald was engaged ' in baptising a number of adults. The ' baptismal water was thrown upon them, J and with the aid of several of his con- 1 gregation, Father McDonald succeeded 1 in subduing the flames and restoingr ' order.?iVi T.

Death in thi Can.?Two, deaths have occnred in Richmond daring the . past ten days from eating eanned lobster. In the last case, the patient died after a sickness of seventeen hoars; in the other, death came more suddenly.
