Troubles tiro like dog.*, the smaller they arc the more they annoy you. Charles Lamb says a laugh is worth a hundred groans in any market. All things except reason nnd order, are possible with a mob. The Mormon apostles who arc preaching through Canada arc reaping a bountiful harvest of proselyte. The ignorant people to whom they chiefly nddnss themselves embrace the Mor mon creed without n thought of its hideous feuturcs. "The crisis is close at hand," arc the closing words of a dispatch from Corpus Christi, Texas, which is full of | interest, and, wc think plainly points to trouble, unless our government acts more promptly, than it yet has in Mexican affairs. The Barn well Sentinel aay? : ??The storm which occurred here on Saturday evening last, and laid waste so many other fcctions, was terrific beyond de scription, '.thousands of dollars would not repair the damage done in vnri cms parts of Barn well County.

Mrs. James A. O.Ues, the well known actress, has dissolved partner ship, matrimonial and professional, with her second husband, Tracy Titus. It appears to have been a case of mother-in-law; Mrs. Gates' mother having cross-examined Tracy in re gard to some lady, and his memory, like Becchcr's being defective,'Mrs. Qatcs put her husband out of her apart ment and her business. Now Mrs. Oatcs vuns a portion of the theatrical company and her husband another, rendering the house divided against itsclfantl ma.ital divorce imminent. Ma it tins?'I had a martin box near my orchard this season. I obser ved the tents of these caterpillars forming on several different apple trees, which were neglected through the hurry of farm work. but. to my surprise they all bad disappeared without my help. Having a wild cherry tree near my orchard, which had been much troubled with tent worms, I noticed the martins in great numbers flying about this tree. In watching their motions I soon discov ered that they were devouring the tent worms. Hence I could easily in fcr.what had becomo/of th'^c on my apple tree. If auy one'_ would free himself from this pest, it can be done, I think, by keeping a number of mar tin boxes in or near bis orchard.' They that do nothing are on the way to do worse than nothing.
