Ac- < wording to this, coal ia but little burned outside of the cities and the coal districts of Pennsylvania and Illinois, some of the densely-populated portions oi the North, and the treeless Northwest Indeed, it is quite evident that wood is the luel of private families in this country, and coal only a luxury. On the other hand, the great corporations, the railroads, steam boats, mining companies, etc., consume only coal, the amount of wood needed by them being only two per cent of the total. A comparison Of the table by Stabs shows some curious figures relative to the cost of fuel in the different sections, an! the amount consumed annually. Three cords of wood will keep a man warm all the year round in Florida, and lees than two it Louisiana; whereas an inhabitant of Wisconsin requires seven, of Tennessee and Michigan six, and of Dakota ten. Then as to price, while the Mississippian pays only 61.40 a cord, and the North Carolinian only 81.2.1, Ne braska pays $4.30, Massachusetts $5.20 and Wyoming $5.GO. A comparison lie- tween Louisiana and Nebraska and Da kota proves that while fuel costs a Louisi ana family an average of only $22 a year, the Nebraskan family pays $70 and the Dakotan $ir>0. Indeed, the Territory of Dakota pays iliree times as much for fuel ns the State of Florida.'' - The Judge Himself Was Posted. As illustrating some pf the remarkable laws of Indiana ou the subject of di vorce, the Hon. Thaddeus 1*. Rollins re lated the other day the s<ory of a divorce which he procured in Casa County some years since, lieforo Judge Chase. The allegations m the complaint were drunk enness and general worthlessness of the defendant. When the ease Came on, a witness was called to prove the character imd habits of the defendant. Mr. Rol lins asked him the question : “Do you know Mr. ——, the defend ant in this case, Mr. Baird ?” The answer was in the affirmative. At this point Judge Chase looked up, and said: “Mr. Baird, tell me if that man is the same Mr. who was in Company K, of the Indiana Regiment during the w ar ?” “The same man, judge,” was the an swer. “You may go no further, Mr. Rollins,” said the judge, “the divorce is granted,” and judgment was* entered according] for the plaintiff. After the court m) ourned the judge was joked about the Bet* Self-Control* The power to keep still fe very often o valuable one in critical moments. The lady school teacher in New York who quietly and safely led ill her pupils put of a burning school house, before they knew it was on fire, might hate put them into a panic and imperilled many Hves if she had not possessed the power tn Con trol herself. The following little inci dent on board an English man-of-war ship is no less creditable to the girl usie Prior), who appears promi nently in it, lieoause ehe tella the story herself in a private letter. After tea I went on deck for the aft wflh Mr. Billy, the Commodore's son. As we leaned over the rails, admiring the orange sunset, suddenly I had' a notion that I smelt a singed smoky odor. I turned to Mr. Billy, without think ing anything seriohs had occurred. " If I were on shore I should ray that some careless iierson had showed a rhisnney to get on lire," and at the same time I pointed to a particular spot in the ship. He pried, “ Nonsense 1" but ^topped short, and raised his head an ho too smelt the faint odor of something burn ing. In an instant fiis face liecamc stem, and s hard, dogged light came into his eyes. “Don’t stir, Miss Prior, till I come back,” he said. " If I can I’ll 1>e here again in, a moment,” and he hurried away in the .direction Iliad indicated. Tnqp jt.flashed upon mo that yonder, whence the smell of the burning come, lay the powder-magarine. I did not stir from the spot where Mr. Billy had bidden me to stay. It was not many seconds, though it seemed on hour, hut the night wind was Mud and felt like a cool hand, lifting the damp hair from my temples, and keeping me from falling down in a swoon. Mr. Billy came back very quietly and sjioke conqioBedly, but his voice was low and his lip quivered. “ It is all right now ami safe, he assured me. “What was wrong ?” I asked. “ Only a stupid fellow, who was assist ing in moving the stapes (the powder)— and who had no business to have a light there— dropped a spark among some bag ging and it was getting into a blase. Rut I got there in time to stamp it outand the captain of the gunncm finished the business with a wet blanket, “ But how well you behaved, Miss Prior," ho said, forgetting Ids own con duct and appreciation of the danger. “If yon had made n row and detained me, nothing short of a miracle could have saved all on lionrd the Conqueror from* being whirled into eternity. “Even if the accident had got wind, and thrown us into confusion, there is no saying how the matter might have ended. 1 who am in the secret shall al ways thank you for all our lives, and for that of my dear old mother's twice over. Had a whisper of the terrific danger reached her, with my father absent, I am certain it would Lave cost her her life on the spot.” . - THE NTORY OF A LEPER, THE BLACK ARTILLERY. qol the The “ Tew Without a fomaer." , We Continue to receive occasional in- hlree concerning the “year in which ere was ho summer.” Home persons appear to have a wrong idea as to the tune. It was the year 1816. It has been Called the “year without a sum mer;" for there was sharp frost in every month. There are old farmers still liv ing in Connecticut who remember it well. It was known as the “year without a summer.” The farmers Used to refer to it as “eighteen hundred and starve to J eath.” January was mild, os was also ‘ebruary, with the exception of a few days. The greater part of March was-} __ _ cold and boisterous.

You know hiJW they fit us for life here —teach Us French, ceramics, music and housework. To-day I took my first real lesson in housework. Heretofore I had had 4 taste of it 111 beinfldetailed to pare apples lor half an hour after supper. To day I was “called off” that is, instead of working regularly after supper *1 the apple bUsineKH, 1 had to take another girl’s work after dinner^ It was ny first Tile “black artillery,” you must know, are great black iron steam kettles in which they cook our meals. There are six of them. Tliey are ugly looking vats. They had l>een used for dinner, and of course they had to la: cleaned. I had never seen the girls cleaning theta, and I hadn't the remotest idea of how the thing was done. I was too proud to ask. Ho I sid to work with two mops, An iron dish-cloth, a dish-towel and sotne soap, The things arc $o deep that 1 hail to the balance myself on their rims. With heels waving in the air, every now and then I made a frantic dip at the bottom. Tlic result of these gymnastics was a smutted apron, a sprained back and a very unsettled temper. When I had got through diving into the kettle, I tried to regain my equilibri um. Shades of misery ! my ' luckless heels capsized a great pail of dirty water used in cleansing the vat. This brought the matron down on me in the “shake of a goat’s foot.” She ordered me to mop it up instantar, And not to track around in it; and.I was actually forced to com. down to the indignitv of mopping up that dirty, greasy sin it. L flopped round wildly with the pail and mop for about tweniy minutes, but iny spirit wits broken. I w’ns tan minutes lata for hall, having worked like A slave for an houi and a half and got one kettle cleaned. Wild horses couldn’t have dragged me back to attack the other five. However, I have had two consolations, One is sCvenTy'-jivc minutes plus lime, and the other iathat I left the pij>e all stopped up with grease. -I had to ladle out every drop I put into the kettle.

In Cincinnati not long aiiroe there died an old pauper known as “ Yellow Jim," from the color of his skin, which assumed a peculiarly saffron tinge when his hair and beard became white. He lagged at the corner of one of the principal streets and died in a cellar. Few knew his story. Forty years ago he wa« one of the most brilliant men hi one of our Southern States, a lawyer with an increasing practice and a flatter ing future lieforo him. ...... One day he bought .half a-ticket in the Grand lottery, won the grand prize and was rmned. From that day he lost all zest in his profession, and lived only to gamble in lotteries. - The money he bail w on speedily melted ••way. He inherited a largo estate from his lather, but neglected it, and in course of time it too disappeared, swallowed up by reckless habits and in one “ Mammoth Lottery Scheme ” or another. The end w'aa want, rags, misery anrt tftath in a squalid cellar. The inhabitants of the Eastern States haveiittle idea of the extant to which tms 1 kind of gambling, although for- buttan V law in the North, is carted in some Of our large cities. In the South aiulSouthwest it is more openly indulged in for very little disgrace, if any, attaches there-to the buyiug of lottery tickets. Li some States, indeed, lottarii* are legally sanctioned, and prominent men lend them the influence of tlieir names. .. \ * , In every city, the opportunities are ojien to young men, from the “Grand Consolidated Corporation,” where the prizes held out are enormous, to the little underground haunts, where the negro invests his pennies. No matter what garb these tempta tions wear, their history is the A few days ago a Stranger came ashore atLowee, Del., from a foreign vessel. He was well dressed and his manner was courteous. Have a slight limp in his gait and an unnatural tinge to his counte nance thel'e Was nothing outwardly to in dicate tlie nresenee of a peculiar malady. Upon reaching the shore, he sought out a private and rather secluded l»oarding- place, and there he remained, keepin aloof entirely from the people aroun him. From significant hulls dropped by several of the crew who brought him ashore, it was whispered alnmt that the stranger was a leper, who, for the safety of his comrades'6n shipboard, .bail l>eeu put ashore to shift for himself.

He gave his name as James At : wild, and said he was an‘Englishman by birth, but up to hist summer he hail been for 10 years a resident of Havaiia, where the disease, the germs- of which wore latent in his system, developed 4t,. self. His impression was that he con tracted the infirmity while at Madagascar, where-he and others of the crew with whom he was associated, were forced to work side by side with a gang of natives, a mimU'r of whom were known to be diseased.
