When bor majesty's ship Emerald
sailed for West Australia last summer,
she received orders to call at the rarely
freqnentod little islan.l of Tristinu
d'Acttnha, to learn bow the little colony
fared, an,i inquire for some shipwrecked
passengers; also to land a score of eats
sent out by the admiralty in eoneeqoenoe
of reports that the island was imjKtver
ished by srrarms of mice, A letter just
received fronf the Emerald's officers
state the result. The nominal governor
of Tristrau. one Peter Grant, and his
ninety subjects, received their visitors
cordially, and the hooks and paj>ers
brought were nnist welcome; but the
present of eats eausc.l amar.ement and
dismay, for tlrant told his visitors he
could supply them with hundreds of
cat's skins. It was true the island was
overrun by mice, but it also swarmed
witli eats, and it was doubtful which
was the greatest plague.
The mice destroy every green blade
on the island, hut the cata live ou
friendly terms with the mum, ami dis
dain to eat them, preferring to live oil
young sea birds and chickens. Thete
f ire cats are trapped and destroyed by
hundreds by the settlers, who sell their
skins. No important changes had oc
curred on the island siuoe the visit of
her ma;< -ty's ship Wolverine iu IS7H,
which was the last English man of war
the inhabitants had seen till the arrival
. i the Emerald. In the presence of
Captain Maxwell ai.il the start' surgeon,
the chaplain administered the rite of
baptism to seven children. There sie
live marriageable youug men, but only
two possible wives for them as yet, and
a* no request was made for a wedding
service, it is to IH< presumed the youug
ladies have not made up their minds.
last May a disss irons wreck occurred
on the western-end of the island. The
American ship Mabel t'larke, bound
from Liverpool to liong Kong with 2,000
tons of eosd, struck on the r.vks during
the uiglit, the master twlieving himself
to be twenty miles further to the north
ward, and six livt s were lost in attempt
ing to establiabcomuiunication with the
shore. The remaining eighteen, includ
ing two women, were savtsl by the
heroic efforts of oue ot the sons of Mr.
Peter Green, who is looked upon AS the
governor of the island, having resided
there since he was cast away, forty-two
years ago. Tonng Green, at the risk of
his life, swam through the snrf to the
wreck with a rope, and all on board
wan got safely to the land. The wo
men had been lashed to the mixsen
rigciug for many hours, and had tem
porarily lost their reason. After staying
on the island for some time, during
which they w<rc well fed and hospitably
treated, a passing ship took them off to
tbe cape; bat being short of proviaians,
►re could not room re them till tbe
landers bad subscribed a sufficient
.mount of fo \i for the shipwrecked jver
.-ons. Considering how bard a life tbe
settlers lead, au occasional barrel of
t'onr from tbe home government would
iot be thrown away.— 7brou.'o Glob*\
Marriage Anion? Indians,
An interesting account of how Indians
marry and are given in marriage is
given by Commissioner Hayt. He says
that at present there are no valid mar
riages among the Indians, except where,
in a few instances, a marriage cere
mony is performed by tbe agent Tbe
custom among the Osage* is aboat tbe
same as am >ng other tribes not fully
civilised, and is somewhat as follows :
A mau who J-sires to marry gives to the
lodge of the woman be proposes to marry
and sits d wn outside of tbe door,
awaiting au irwitation * go in. At first
be sends a present of one pony, and if
in response the gift there is no invi
tation to cotae w.thin the lodge, he
sends another pony as a present ; if the
second do* * not answer tbe purpose, a
third, f -trtU, fiftli or even a tenth is
sent. Whea the number of ponies is
satisfactory to the father of the woman
the di nor is invited into tbe lodge and
tbe barest! is completed. If it so hap
pens th..t hi takes tbe oldest girl in the
fimilv, Le i> entitled to take all her
vouager sisters to himself, or if be does
not take them for himself be bargains
wirh any after applicant for their pos
session. The whole proceeding is a
mere matter of bargain and sale, in
which women are di*}>oeed of without
their o isentand very much like cattle
in the market TLtre is nowhere any
limit to the number of wives, as they
are called, which an Indian may have,
and by their custom he can change the
occupants of his lodge as often as he
choes. "As our civilization is op
posed to p< Jygaray, ' says the commis
sioner, " s -me decisive action should be
taken regulating and establishing mar
nage in all Indian communities. An ac
ofCongr. ss should provide wholes..me
and proper marriage laws for Indian
tribes."
The Empire state"* Population.
A Sew York. paper says: It will, we
imagine, surprise most Sew Yorkers to
learn that, according to tue last census
of this State, 12,859 families are now
living in log cabins. Of other dwellings,
588,031 are built of wood, 98,290 of
bnek, and 18,718 of stone. More than
one-half of all these cost lesa than
82,000 apiece; more than one-third less
than SI,OOO, and 7,104 less thau SSO
each, showing that any extravagance
w> ich interior New Yorkers may have is
not of an architectural order. In the
countT or city of New York, booses, as
may be snppceed, laave much more value
than in the emntry, 56,010 baring cost
$5,000 and upward, mainly upward. In
deed, the dwellings of the metropolis
alone have coat about as much a the
dwellings in alt the rest of the State.

The late duchess of Gordou, says an
English paper, taking nn airing alone
in her carriage, hi remote part of the
.Scottish highlands, observed at soma
distance from the ron.t a neat cottage
surrounded by a garden. Her grace
pulled the check-string, and asked the
servants to go round with the carriage
to where she desired theui to stop, while
she crossed the moor to pay the cottage
a visit. The duchess happened to wear
a pelisse trimmed with gold lace, and
her hat was ornamented with golden
spangles. A girl atniut twelve years
old, the only jierson iu the cottage, was
spinning at the wheel and singing a
merry strain. As soon as tier ryes
caught the figure of the duchess ap
proachitig, the green dress, the slnuiug
ap|>e*rancc of the hut, .ui which the sun
shone, the singularity .if such a visitant
in so louety a situation, all so worked on
the imagination of the little girl that
she verily believed the queen of the
fairies had come to rvveal to her some
fearful mystery of fate. In groat terror
she escaped t.i a hack closet, where,
through a small aperture, she could
see Without being seen. L'lie supptwed
fairy qiuvu entered, surveyed the apart
ment with a curious eye. and then see
ing the wbe. 1, bethought herself of try
ing to Spin. She gave the wheel several
turns, but could not uiake a tolerable
thread, though abc twisted up all the
carded W.H>l she could find. As some
compensation for any injury her awk
warvUiess might have ts.vsAsiou.sl, her
grace tusi a crown piece in a hain'ker
chief that lay ujsiu the table, ilx.sl it to
a sjxiko of the wh.vl, an 1 departed.
The girl could uot summon courage to
venture from her hiding-place before her
father and sister catue in, nor till some
tnue after could they extract from her
an explanation of the extraordinary state
of perturbation in which tliev found her.
Their surprise was scarcely less than
hers wheu they were informed that
somebody, who could be no other than
the .jneeu of the fairies, f.r alio was all
in green and gold, and shiuiug bright as
the suu, lia.l corue into the house, and
seeing UOIHHIV there, had fallen to be
witching the wheel, which, as sure as
fam* were fairies, would never go
again.
•' Aud see," ivintiuuad the youug en
thusiast, pointing to the handkerchief
tied to the spoke, "something which she
had left."
The father untied the handkerchief,
and the sight of the sterling piece of
coin which it contained soon dispelled
from his mind ..11 suspicion as to the
terrestrial aitributes of the lady who
had been hou. ring his cottage with a
visit.
The women of the cottage, however,
were of a very different opinion. With
them the lady could be no other thau
the fairy queen, who must doubtless
have come to tell pvr Isabel her for
tune ; the spoiled thread was a sign that
the tlist .lays of their life would Ih>
marked with disappointment and sorrow,
and the crown piece tied iu a haudkei
chief to the sj>oke <>T the wheel lie
tokened that she would iu the end ar
rive by honest industry to wealth and
.simfort. Harmless delusion ! It lasted
but for a day. Sunday caiae. and the
appearance of the queen of the fairies,
m the same drees at church is the
duchess of the manor, convinced even
Isabel that she had been deceived.

Backwoods Courting in Missouri.
He sat on the side of the room, in a
big white oak rocking-cbr.jr. A long
eared deerhound snapping at fiies was
by his side; a basket of sewing by hers,
liotii rocked incessantly—that is, the
yonng people—not the dog or basket. He
sighs heavily and looks out of the west
window at a crape myrtle tree; she sighs
lightly and gazes out of the east window
—at a turnip patch. At last he re
marks;
"This i* mighty good weather to pick
cotton."
"Tis that—if wc only had any to

The rocking continues.

A Race for a Bride.
A romantic elopement from Kentncky
cante to light at Cincinnati, Ohio,
recently. Kev. J. Oliver is the man au.l
Emma Abbott is the i.iy in the .vise.
Rev. Oliver is a preacher, thirtv year*
old, located near Bedford, Kv., and
Mir-s Abbott is a teacher and the daughter
of a rich farmer ai the same p!aee. She
:• eighteen years old. Ho loved and was
beloved, projk's.-d an 1 was grti fully
accepUkl by the lady, but not by her
parents. Elopement WAS determine.]
upon. One afternoon he was to call at
her sch.K>l and take her on horselrsok to
the nearest railroad station, eighteen
miles. She pack.si her clothing, and
hid the bundle in u thicket, where lie
was to go and get it. He procured two
swift saddle horses. When ho approach
ed the thicket he saw the bride's big
brother walking away, bearing Hie
clothing on his arm. He went at once
with the horses to the schoolhonse. She
disraiHsed school, and presently both
were moving toward the railr>>ad
station, eighteen miles awny. Not long
after starting they heard a horseman
Whind them. It was her father in pur
suit, accompanied by bis sou". For half
an hour there was a race, flight and par
suit, the pursuers gaining. The ftigi
tires, thanks to darkuess au ! a by-road,
eluded their pursuers, and, crossing
fields aud swimming streams, made a
station a little further on just iu time.
Arriving in Louisville, the first man the
youug lady spied was her uncle. Judge
Abbott. She managed to avonl being
observed by him, and the |*nir ( anppos
iugthey were watched, went by private
conveyance to New Alliany, and tlx ace
took a train to Cincinnati. Her.> the
Rev. Oliver applied for a marriage
license, anil learned that he rniiNt sw. ir
that he and she were residents of Ohio,
which he would not do. On the str.s t
the lady espied "Emma Abbott" in
large letters on handbills. It was Kmroa
Abb- tt, the vocalist; but she stitqN>ed
it WAS her father's doing, and that she
was the person meant. The two, in
alarm, took a hack at the depot and
boar.kkl an early aftenn>on train to
Lawrencebnrg, I u 1., where they were
married.
Head Downward for Ten Hour*.
A couple of nig. As ago a youug man
named Adam*, living near the railroad
be: ween here and Columbia, was riding
ou horseback at a gallop down the rail
road track. The night was not very
dark, and the young man presumed up
on his knowledg of that part of the
track an 1 his ability to see anything
dangerous before getting to it, to in
dulge in the fast ri ling. But this time
he had risked too much; for he eame
upon a deep eulvrt with .nt noticing it
in time to stop hi* horse. The animal
made a nobl" effort t<> hold up, bat his
fore feet went down and the rider w.aa
thrown several feet forward over the
animal's head. In falling, one foot
passed between the iron rail and a sill
that lie* beneath it, but separated by
the thickness of the er". --ties, and his
body passed beneath (lie ties, thus bang
ing liirn by the nukle.
Iu this perilous position ho hung for
two or three hours, wheu l e heard iu
the distauce the heavy rumbling of an
advancing freight train. By this, fear
was converted into frenzy, for be was
not able under th- circumstances to
know whether the weight of the cars
wonl.l pass over any part of his foot, or
make his situation more painful. But
the cars came and paginal without bring
ing any more pain or anybody to hear
the piercing cries thnt he sent forth for
assistance. He hallooed himself t<>hoarse
ness during the night, but no aid came
until morning, when he was found and
taken from hiH situation nearer dead
thau alive. He was at once taken to n
near lionse nnd remedii a applied until
he began to show signs of irapr vement,
since which time he lias been gradually
getting better, and has now only to
nurse his ankle aud foot, which will be
useless to him for some tim< yet.

like a rabbit. So she is neither oue
thing tior auother; and I cannot make
out whether she is u rabbit trymg to be
a cat, or a eat trying to be a rabbit. She
succeeds, any way. China i* rather
handsome, lier coat is the most biwtii
tiful combination of soft buff and er
mine a most pleasing color—and she
is a shapely little thing beside*, with a
tine head and pretty fait*. I.ike some
other bwtntico, however, bhe is not as
good as she u> iKMtulifnl. has a
temper—can IK- very playful aud affec
tionate one minute, au.l scratch and bite
the next without provooatiou. From an
infant she seemed to have no oonarience.
She was a perfect whirlwind in the
house, wheu the whim took her to frolic;
went uvt-r chairs aud All sorts ot tur
niturc like a dying squirrel; sucoeoded
iu sis>ut a wtK<k in tearing off ad the
gimp from the chairs and lounges,
climbed the araha tres-si, shook off the
blosfoms, aud then broke the stems,
l'uuiahmi-nt sin* minded uot at all
OLly to escape Ironi it lor the moment.
1 tlunk she had n*>t, as a kitten, a grain
of moral sense, and yet she was *' awful
canning " and entertoiutug—mre so
than a spoilel child. We got a
old cat to come and live with China.
She drove that cat i-Ut of the house
and off tne premises iu leas than half a
day; aud that, too, when she wasn't
more than seven inches long. She went
at the big cat with incredible fury, with
tim blaze an-I momentum of a little fire
ball.
Now that China has come to l>e of de
cent size, sumo of the vivacity and pl*y
fnlness has gone out of her, but she is
really untamed—goes for things on the
table, steals, mal all that; ami it is
more difficult than ever to tell whether
she is a rabbit or ft cat. We have
another companion fur her—a mild,
staid old grandmother of u cat, with a
very big tail, enough for two, if ti.ey
would share it. China treats her witti
no respect, but, on the whole, they get
on well, quarreling only hslf the time,
and consent to live in the same house.
China overlooks the intrusion.
But aa to the nature of China, this is
what happened recently, ('bias's mis
tress had undertaken to raise some rad
ishes in advance of the season, iu a box
iu her conservatory. It was a slow pro
cess, owing to a lack of heat or lack ot
disposition in the radisln .-> to grow.
They conn- tip, shot up. grew slender,
tall and pale. Occasionally the mistress
would pull up oue to sec why the bot
toms di.ln't grow so that wo eonld eat
tliem; but aUe never discovered why.
Tb<* plants spindled tip, all top and no
radish; and hy-ami-by they got tired
and laid down to rest. They might in
time 00me to something. In fact, they
1 tH'gan to look as if they were thickening
in the stem and going to grow in the
, root. One morning they were gone.
Gone, after weeks of |ntticut watch
ing, watering, and anxious expectation 1
Nibbled off fiose to the ground. China
ha i eateu evi-ry one of them slnirt.
Now, doesn't that show that China is
I a rablyt ? Will a out eat radish tops ?
This is one thing f want t kn>w.
There came once to our house a face
tious person; that is. s person who
makes jokes likely to hurt your feelings;
and he limited at tho cat, and said it
>iidn't mstter if it ha.l no tail, that I
could write one for it. I have done so.
But that makes no difference. What
I waut to know from the children of
St. .Vi rhnltin is this; What can Ido
with ner ? I can neither give her away
for a cat nor sell her for 11 rabbit. I)o
you tiimk it would OOHX a tail out of her
to pnt her under bine glass ?—' hartr*
