Mrs. Sunderland paused in her work
of nipping tho withered blossoms from

glanco toward tho speaker,

"Don't bo so mysterious," said Mrs

Mrs.'Sundeiiand did not think that

to preparo for wcro of a very serious

been set upon his obtaining tho pro

That he failed to do so was, 'n it

Frank should succeed where Charlie
failed was a trial much harder to on-

tongue wagged freely, and her opinion
that tho school was conducted upon

Then she turned and saw Charlio

ed that ho had boon crying, but Mrs.
Sunderland looked at him, apathetical

Charlio gaaed for a fow moments
upon his dead school-mate, awed and

othor down his checks. In a littlo
while tho mother kissed tho marble
brow, still with that unnatural calm-
nesi, and re-covered tho faco.
Charlie was trembling from head to
foot with repressed agitation, and Mrs.
Sundeiland almost unconsciously laid
hr hand upon his shoulder as if to
calm him. At her touch tho boy's
self-control gave way ; with a child's
instinctivo dodiro for comfort and sup
port in sorrow, ho llung
around her, and dropping
upon her besom, burst into
ht ot weeping.
'Oh, Mrs. Sunderland T' he cried, "I

Tho observance of scrupulous clean

Tho city of Wheeling is bankrupt.
The. Constitution provides that a city
cannot create a debt to exceed five per
ccdI. of its taxable property. The
State assessment just completed shows
the city properly to be valued at $1G,
000,000, which allows a debt of 800,
000. Somo time ago tho Exohango
Bank refused to cash any more orders
for the city, as its fund was then over
drawn !t14,000. A meeting of tho
counsel was called and it was ascer
tained that none of the loans negotiat
ed for a number of years was legal. A
new ordinance was prepared, but has
not yet reached tho Council. The City
.Receiver has borrowed email amounts
of various persons on tho street, but
this source of revenue has ceased. The
police got their orders for July pay

hopo for their doing so again. Tho

That tho head, on being separated from

sufficient "for keeping up the nervous
functions for a few short moments,

Tho cholera appeared at Albano,
near Rome, on July 13, 1866, under
very singular circumstances. It was
on tho occasion of somo religious cero
mony that attraolcd a great number oi
visitors from tho Eternal City, who
were gathered together in the grounds
of tho Papal Castle of Gaudolfo. It
was after the ceremony, and tho crowd
wero walking through the grounds, ad
miring tho beautiful fountains and lis
tening to tho music of a military band.
All at onco some of llieni perceived in
tho sky, coming from tho direction of
tho African coast a great black cloud,
divided down the middle so as to re
semble tho two wings of an enormous
bat. A feeling of intense cold over
powered tho spectators. Iu less than
an hour a hundred and four persons
had beeu stricken down by the disease.
The cloud seemed to bo charged with
cholera as other clowds with electri
otty. Scientific men explained this
curious phenonomenon by assorting
that tho cloud had formed over great
stagnant pools in the peighborhood of
Tunis, that aro filled with thu excre
ment of countless hosts of locusts and
grasshoppers. Tho disoaso did not
spread beyond tiio gates of Albano,
Colonel Green, Presidout of tho Con

beer drinkers, ho liad occasion to note

persons whoso habits, in their own

were huof.ual users ot beer. When
tho observations began, they wero,
upon tho nverago, something under
middle age, and they were, of course,
selected lives.
For two or threo years there was
nothing very remaikable to bo noted
among this, group. I'reseutly death

dwindled to u fraction of its original
proportions, tho mortality in it was
astounding iu extent, and still more
remarkable iu thu manifest identity of

taking it. Tho history was almost in
variable robust, in apparent health,

A question, probably never raided

than 100 years old is not presumably
of insufficient disposing mind, memory,
and understanding to mako a will, has
been decided by tho Civil Court of

of the Restoration. At her chateau,

will, by which bIio left a great part of
her fortuno to tho wife of tho notary
who drew it up. This will sherovoked
by a subsequent will in 1880, and di
vided all her property among nephews
aud nieces. The notary's family con
tended that at tho extremely advanced

eould not have possessed testamentary
