STRAYED FROM THE FLOCK
BY AUTHOR Or IfALLY.&X,OKIITLIMATO.
The Wind goes Sobbing
Over the moor;
Far is the fold and Shut its noorl
White and still—beyond terror or shock,
Lies the foolish lamb that strayed from the
flock;
While overhead: from frozen branch,
With rotenderThus pisi n ty,

"rho wind howls heavy
With death and sorrow;
To-day It is thee—may be to•morrow;
Yet I'll sing one tune o'er the silent fold
For the little lamb that never grew old;
.Never lived long winters to see.
Chanting from e hs onmpty
ce boso ughs
leafy. like me,
"The snow Oakes cover
'I he moorland dun ;
My song thrills feebly, but I sing on.
Why did God make me a brave bird-soul,
Under warm feathers, red as a coal,
To keep my life thus cherry and bright
To the very last twinkle of wintry light—
While thine is all over?
"Why wan I given
Bold strong wings
To bear me away from hurtful things,
While thy poor feet were so tender and weakly,
And thy faint heart gave up all so meekly,
Till It yielded at length to a still, safe Hand,
Tnat bade thee Ho down, nor try to stand?
Was it the hand of Heaven?
"The wind goes sobbing,"
(Thus sang the b ir d;
Or elan inn dream his voice I hood)
" Nothing I know, and nothing can;
Wisdom is not for me, but man.
Yet some snow pure, snow ii , dl-11001LIOW cold,
May be singing o'er the lamb strayed from the
fold,
Besides poor Robin."

One of th 6 Great Workshops of Pennsyl-
Nadia.
On the western slope of the Allegho
flies, in the valley of the Conemaugh
just where that beautiful river strikee
the " Laurel Hill" range, one of the
greatest of the industrial establishments
of Pennsylvania is situated. This is
the Cambria Iron Company's Works,
for the manufacture of railroad bars. It
is au establishment that the people of
Philadelphia should have knovledge
of, for it is owned in this city ; it is one
that the people of the State should feel
a deep interest In, for it is the foremost
of the great rolling mills and iron works
peculiar to this Commonwealth, and It
Is one that should elicit the pride of
Americans everywhere, for it is the
largest single establishment of the kind
in the world. It is turning out rails,
to-day, at the rate of five miles in
length, or sufficient to lay two and a
half miles of track every day. Express
ed in pounds, the daily product of rails
is five hundred thousand pounds—two
hundred and fifty tons—a quantity suf
ficient to freight a good sized sea-going
vessel, and It would take a fleet of three
hundred such v.w„ 3 ..els to carry the pro
duct for one But few persons can
form an adequate idea of the number
and magnitude of the agencies which
so vast a product sets in motion. This
it is our purpose to present as well as
our brief space will permit.
The picturesque hills which surround
the Works are filled with coal and iron,
clay for lire brick, cement, and nearly
all the essentials for the manufacture of
pig iron. There are three principal
seams of coal, and two principal veins
of iron ore. There is a seam of coal high
upon the hill, and then a seam of iron;
and then another seam of coal, and so
on down to the lap of the valley. Under
the soil of these hills burrowing far into
the earth,,twelvehundred workmen are
all the thin employed, mining coal and
iron ore for this one mill. The enor
mous amount of coal and of ore they
have to get out every day will be under
stood when it is stated that it requires
about five tons of coal and nearly four
tons of ore to make one ton of rails.
When the whole dully product of the
rolling mill—viz., 250 tons of rails per
day—is manufactured directly from the
ore and coal in these hills, it requires
the miners to get out about one thousand
tons of ore, and about twelve hundred
tons of coal every day. But a consider
able proportion of the rails made are
from old bars re-rolled, and from pig
iron produced at a furnace worked by
the company near Hollidaysburg, Of
the five tons of coal used in the manu
facture of a ton of railroad bars, about
three tons are first applied to the re
duction of three tons of ore into pig
iron. The coal, however, Is not used In
Its native form, but is first turned into
coke, In which operation large numbers
of workmen are all the time engaged.
This is done by subjecting the coal to
the action of smouldering fires, by
which means the inflammable and
other gases are consumed and the car
bon of the coal Is left nearly pure. The
carburetted hydrogen gas tints con
sumed is more than twice as
much as it takes to light the
whole city of Philadelphia, in doors
and out. The iron ore is like
wise subjected to a preparatory pro
cess. It Is thrown out from the mouths
of the mines into vast hills, at the base
of which cord wood is laid, and through
Which coal is interspersed, so as to
make smouldering fires here also,
to
" roast" the injurious gases out of the
ore. To complete this operation it takes
about six months before the ore can be
handled so as to feed it into the fur
naces where the pig iron is made. The
making of the " pigs " is effected in a
}lumber of immense "cupolas," into
the top of which the coke and the
" roasted " ore are dumped by a con
stant procession of carts, day and night,
year in and year out. The fire in one
of these has not been out for more than
three years.
Although the material thrown into
the tops of these cupolas looks very
much like the dirt and clay carted off
wherever a cellar is being dug in the
city, it comes out at the bottom in
streams of glowing molterriron, which
running into moulds of sand makes the
pigs. Several hundred hands are em
ployed in " coking" and in the furnaces
described. The pig iron is then taken
to the mill, which covers an immense
area of ground. It first goes into what
are called " puddling" furnaces where
it is heated to a white heat and becomes
of the consistency of dough, by the
constant stirring of a class of workmen
called " puddlers." They stand in
front of the " fiery furnaces" and by
means of long iron rods thrust through
small openings, they stir the iron about
until nearly all the carbon is burned
out of it and it is at last brought out in
large glowing lumps, which are loaded
on iron trucks and taken to a huge re
volving wheel called a "squeezer," and
this after a revolution or two throws
the iron outin compressed masses called
" bloom " iron. The " blooms " are
then- taken to the "rolls," which are
great trains of revolving cylinders, and
after tieing passed through these they
come out in flat slabs of iron about five
feet long, eight or ten Inches wide, and
about an inch thick. These are next
laid Into " piles " of eight or ten slabs,
the top slab being of " granular " or
hard iron for the top surface of the rail,
and the bottom slab being of fibrous
or tough iron for the under sur
face. The " piles " are then hated
to a white heat and taken to other train
of rolling machinery, through which
they are successively back and forth
until each "pile" emerges from the
"roll" a perfect rail, something over
thirty feet long. Immediately upon is
suing from the "rolls" the rails, while
still red hot, are placed in front of cir
cular saws, and are cut to the exact
length ordered. The rails are then left
to cool, and then each one is tested and
adjusted by other machinery. Those
that do not stand the test are sent batik
• to bo worked over, and the perfect rails
are immediately passed out of the mill,
and at once loaded up on cars, to be ta
ken to their destination.
The whole place is a wonder. Every
where there Is incessant motion, from
the loading up of the cupolas with the
dirt-like masses of. ore to the final issue
of the iron in a constant stream of rails
that make five miles of length every
day. Fires are blazing and gleaming
everywhere. Immense numbers of
workmen and wonderful masses'of ma
chinery are moving with never-ceasing
.energy in all directions. Including the
twelve hundred miners ,already , men
tioned, the,employes of the Company
number four thousand ;and these, with
their families, constituttnearly the
l.whole population of Johnstown, a flour
ishing town of about 20,000 inhabitants.

Spa c e tails to give a complete descrip
tion; ut we have said enough , to give
some idea of an establishment of the
most remarkable character, a grand
type of the peculiar industries of inter

worthy of attention and study as those
we hear so much about, whether in Old
England or New England.—Philadel

A Bay on Vesuvius.
We copy the following description of
" a day on Vesuvius," by Professor
Bennett, of Lima, from the New York
GlaridianqAdvocate :
Veteran travellers who have climbed
Etna, or looked into the boiling vortex
of auna Loa, are accustomed to call
Vesuvius the " baby volcano." Not
withstanding this, its ascent is an event
of no common interest in the adven
tures of the ordinary tourist. It was
therefore, with no little degree of en
thusiasm that our littli3 party of five
Americans, who had kept each other
company for i several days in Venice,
Rome, and Naples, mounted our little
mountain ponies to go up the volcano.
Provided with a guide, and one porter
for carrying provisions, surplus clothing
&c., we began the ascent at ten o'clock
in the morning. At first, the pathway
leads, of course, over the old beds of
ashes, and lava that buried Hercula
neum and Pompeii eighteen centuries
ago, but which are now covered with a
wonderful luxuriance of fruits and
grains. As we drive on through wind
ing streets and lanes the prospect
widens, becoming more and more beau
tiful. Naples seems to lie at our very
feet. Capri, Ischia, and Procida are set
like gems in the sea ; while the Cam
pagua, with its wealth of olives, vines,
oranges, lemons and mulberries, dies
away into the dim distance on our
right.
Soon however, we strike the field of
1858 and 1859, black and awful. No
sight of my life has given such a notion
of the horrors of desolation and dark
ness. My vocabulary is too poor to
give any adequate description of the
character of this lava mass. It would
seem that Milton must have seen some
thing of this kind in order to be able to
paint some of the awful pictures in his
immortal epic. One easily imagines
this the scene of that dire contest,
resulting in casting down the rebellious
host ; for here in this blackened mass
is seen the horrible debris of a once
mighty multitude of warring giants,
whose limbs, trunks and entrails lie
scattered in interminable confusion,
closely compacted with remnants of
monsters,partners of their "foul revolt."
Yes, here is that dark, rebellious host,
forms of angels and archangels fallen,
mingled up with terrible mythological
shapes, mummy forms of an abnormal
life, disgusting abortions of races, all
blasted by the angry bolts of a sover
eign God, and tumbled down from
infinite heights, a charred and horrid
mass of indistinguishable ruin.
About noon we reached the Hermi
tage, a halting place, with a little chapel
where one may say prayers and com
mend himself to the Virgin before en
countering further dangers. Here we
take our simple lunch of sandwiches
and oranges, get a fine view of the
country beneath, then proceed on our
route. A few minutes led as past the
" Meteorological Observatory," where,
since 1844, have been kept careful re
cords of changes and temperature and
pressure preceding and subsequent to
eruptions, earthquake shocks, &c.—
Presently the guide says: "This is the
stream of January last." It is entirely
different from the field of 1858 and 1859,
being a mass of friable, angular frag
ments, rather than a molten stream
stiffened by cooling. Soon the route
lies directly over this mass (it having
entirely destroyed the old bridle path)
on a rough, narrow walk, just at whose
sides the puffs of smoke and steam tell
of hot masses still smouldering beneath.
Soon the guide tells us, " this is ten
days old." And we can well believe it,
for the hot air from this trembling mass
is now and then driven into our very
faces. The last of the route by horses
is least difficult, since it lies for the
most part in the comparatively smooth
and level crater of '79, so that a short
time brings us to the foot of the outer
cone, where our horses must be left and
hard work begins. Up to this point a
French lady had accompanied her hus
band on horseback. She started to as
cend the outer cone, but soon turned
back discouraged. Indeed, It may be
set down as impracticable for women to
climb this cone—the only tolerable
means of ascent being in chairs carried
upon the backs of these hardy moun
taineers. Even to men the climb is a
very tedious one, owing to the insecure
nature of the footing. The whole
mountain side is one mass of sharp,
angular rocks, from a cubic inch to two
cubic feet in mass, lying loosely at such
angles as gravity would allow them to
assume. If one choose the larger blocks,
which is preferable, extreme caution is
nesessary to guard against fails and
tumbling a rock upon your next neigh
bor behind. If one prefer the finer, the
sinking into the yielding mass renders
progress very slow and extremely te
dious. When we had climbed up about
half way a terrible hail storm burst
upon us. It was accompanied with
sharp lightning and terrific thunder,
bursting directly above our heads. I
had read much about these storms upon
mountain peaks, but this single expe
rience at this small elevation was
enough t 4 convinee me of their awful
ness. The effect of the falling hail upon
the mountain was exceedingly curious:
the heat of the newly erupted lava
melted it as it fell, while the older por
tions were clad in a robe of spotless
white, standing out in boldest contrast
to the other blackened masses. While
we were thus shrouded in darkness, 1
tugging and toiling in the face of the
pelting storm, the immense valley
opening towards Pompeii was one glow
ing mass of verdure and of sunshine,
bursting upon the eye in a vision of
glorious loveliness, almost unearthly in
its splendors. Never has it been mine
to enjoy a more fitting picture of the
contrast bet Ween the storms and black
ness of earth and the brightness and
glory of the better country.
After a climb of two hours and twen
ty minutes we reach the base of the in
ner cone, the last eight or ten minutes
leading over a tractoflavayet smoking,
and giving forth in spots puffs of blue
and-white vapor. A mountaineer usu
ally meets travelers at this point, ready
to vend " Lacrymne Christi " (the choice
wino produced on this mountain) and
eggs. It is a favorite amusement for
visitors to cook eggs by the heat of the
lave stream. Instead of this some of
our party lighted their cigars with canes
fired in the red hot mass. Having at
tained
this height, some of our party
were still unsatisfied. Indeed, this feel-
Ing is but natural, since very little more
of the volcano proper can be seen from
this point than from the base of the out
er cone. On consultation, our guide re- I
fused to accompany us, assuring us it
was " very difficult." But what were
difficulties toe company who had come
with no other purpose than to meet and
overcome them?. The gtilde then said,
"It is very dangerous I But, as is of
ten the case in such clroumstances, this
only whetted our desires, and a, passion
to look into the Crater itself seemed to
seize a,pertiebn of our company. The
guide warned and refused to go, but In
vain. 1:10 we started, and the guide fol
lowed. After a most exhausting clam
ber we found ourselves on the very edge
of the crater itself, in whose depths we
could see the, ashes and stones almost
constantly rise and heave. Indeed, so
near the edge were , we that we tumbled
down large - blooks of lavaltitry the very

NQ,BSALI ANYWHERE.
No beaux! Absolutely no beaux!
Well,young ladies, stop and consider,
if, after all, you yourselves have not
prmiounced the sentence of banish
ment.
We? we " banish" them? Good gra
cious! Is it not for them we have devi
sed all this elaboration of adornment?
We, indeed Were we not for weeks,
'before we came to these odious moun
tains, where men areas scarce asFrench
hair-dressers, closetted with our dress
makers and milliners to produce these
bewitching "suits" long and short, for
, morning and evening, out-door and in
door wear? Have we not cool dresses
and warm dresses; dresses for rain,
dresses for sunshine, dresses for neutral
weather, with ribbons, gloves, sashes,
parasols, bats and fans to " match," to
the minutest shade? For whom should
we take all that trouble but for the
beaux? And how are we responsible
for their disgusting absence?
Listen ,my dears, for in that which you
have just said lies your offence. Can
damsels thus arrayed walk in the woods,.
olimb the mountains (except in poetry)?
Can they take even an ordinary, mild
walk, without moral terror of periling
their millinery? Must they not, there
fore, " ride," morning, afternoon and
evening, everywhere, to the delectation
of stable-keepers, and the consequent
pecuniary depletion of the " beaux ?"
These beaux, whose fathers may to
rich, but whose sone have yet to fill
their individual coffers ; these beaux,
who have just so much to expend when
they get away for a summer holiday,
and who do not desire to pour it all into
the pockets of the stable keepers ; these
beaux, who can get vastly more fun out
of their purses, and make them last
longer, with a party of " the fellows"—
this is the reason that, with rare excep
tions, you have to throw away these
ravishing toilettes on your own sex,
when you play croquet, or sit on the
piazza, dreaming of the "coming man."
My dears, he won't come ! He knows
too much. He has seen his sister's
milliner and mantuamalter bills, and
heard the family discussions thereon ;
and though he acknolvledges your fas
cinations even through all the absurd
toggery you are doomed by fashion's
slavery to have and to wear, he has yet
to make the fortune to enable him to
foot his angel's bills. So he runs away
from you, discreetly ; runs off fishing,
or gunning, with "the fellows," and,
wiser than you, comes home brown,
hale and hearty for the winter months,
Instead of perspiring at your side in
tight boots and yellow kids.
Do you, begin to understand? Now,
my dears, if you have been ushered into
the world in a coach and six, till your
feet and bands have become paralyzed
for want of use, that's your misfortune,
not your fault. Because , that necessi
tates a rich husband. And as there are
very few rich young husbands, you will
have to bid good-bye to your girlish
ideal, and marry the bald-headed, gouty
Mr. Smith, who was born at the same
time as your own father. This, my
dears, you will have to do, or face your
nightmare, single blessedness.
I have looked at your playing croquet,
without a coat-tail among you ; I have
seen you driving yourselves out in your
pretty little phaeton's ; and though you
put a brave face on it, I know very well
what is going on under that gay little
sash of yours ; and I think it is a pity
that you should have been brought up
to so many artificial wants, that your
heart must go hungry in life's spring
time because of them.
My dears, I never lacked beaux at
your age. But a walk in the woods, or
In the city either, involved no expense
to my beaux. I could climb a fence,
where there was no gate, or where there
was either; I was not afraid of
dew, or rain, because my dress was
simple. My gifts were not diamonds,
but flowers or books. My mother
would not have allowed me to ride with
gentlemen, had they asked me. When
they came to spend an evening, our tray
of refreshthents did not involve a
" French cook." So you see, my dears,
though I had no silk dresses, I had
plenty of beaux, and a gay heart; and
I enjoyed a sail with an old sun
bonnet over my curls, or a moonlight
ramble, with a merry party, much
better than you do "the German;"
and half an hour was sufficient warning
for me "to dress" for any kind of a
party—in doors or out—because, unlike
you, I was not bothered to choose from
twenty dresses which to wear; and I
will give you leave to ask any of my
beaux, who are now grandfathers, if I
was not able at that time to settle their
accounts! And it is because I had such
a good time that I feel vexed that your
youth and prettiness should so often go
a-begging—through no fault of yours;
and you may show this to your mothers,
and tell them I say so.

The Change In Fashions—General State
ment—What "Le Beau Monde" Says.
The July number of Le Beau Monde
discourses the prevailing fashions as
follows:
"If a lady were asked to express in a
couple of words what changes have
taken place in the fashions during the
past month, she would reply, even if
she did not, 'shorter and skimpier.'
Crinoline had such a rage, and became
so unbounded. that it was only natural
to expect a very violent reaction. But
nobody could have anticipated such a
state of things as now exists. A little
more, and a long step will not be a pos
sibility. Again, ladies blessed with a
profusion of hair, having dressed it in
the prevailing style, and having adopt
ed the extreme of fashion, present a
very unpleasant appearance. Some
judgment should be used in these mat
ters.
"For our parts, we believe the wan
of proportion now evident in all the
fashions will be compensated by the ab
solute introduction of the farthingale
itself, and the abandonment of the
many shapes of imitation of thatadjunct
which the last two months have been
Industriously hatching, and which have
this month taken something like decis
ion of shape.
"Assuredly, the hips must be draped
n some manner. It is quite impossible
that the totally narrow skirt, utterly
unrelieved, can prevail. Of the eight
figures with which we present our
readers this month, scarcely one is plain
at the hips.
"The hair Is still worn at the summit
of the head in Paris, but this style has
not been adopted in England by the
very beet people.
"The short dress ball has had the ef
fect of reducing the length of the trains,
while, at the same time they are some
what filled out behind.
"The proper length of an out-door
dress is certainly not more than three
inches from the ground, while these
skirts are now relieved somewhat from
their meanness of appearance either by
flat-frills—sometimes two, one above
the other--ruchlngs or fiat fiuttings.
"Of the extraordinary and chaotic
shapes of what may be called over
skirts, we can scarcely venture to say
any thing. They sometimes take the
shape of rounded aprons in front, squar
ing off into a jacket line behind, the
whole completed with long white knot
ted ends. Again, a sort of George 111
period, half-square, in the material of
the dress, is combined with a half-loose
bodice, which is completed with falling
ends behind. In other oases, a sort of
curtain-diapered skirt in gauze, black
or white, is draped over the under-Skirt,
swept about the dress, raised behind at
the waist, and completed by falling
ends, In other cases, from a cuirass°
girdle flows a loose drapery of th‘ ma
terial of the dress, which, being looped
underneath to the waist again afterfall
ing a few inches, gives the idea of an
antique Grecian bodice, an effect 'en
hanced by the sweeping add crossed
drapery Sowing over the skirt.
"In other cases, to the skirt of the
dress is given the exact semblance of a
,petticoat , because the material is-not
used at all in the upper-skirt, which is
looped up all the way round, while over
the back, falli the long bowed ends of a
'Marie Antoinette fichu, word so low
over the bodice as to give at' lie upper
- line the outline of an evening dress. In
' these cases the whole of theupper-skirt,

the fichu, the bow is made of ithe same :
pompadour silk, always a diaper of bou
,quets upon a dark ground; frequSntly
'black. "The petticoat - being genially
made of light coloYed Materhsl,-the con.'
treat is mostmarked and deliberate.
"Sometimes the rounded . apron style.
is so managed, that it reminds one of the
leather apron' of 'a sapper and miner; ,
"Sleeves •• for out door dress remain

The Apostles' Croat In Prague.
While In the market place we will
wait for the hour, for here is a curious
old clock that ticked four centuries ago,
when the Swedes were thundering at
the gates of Prague, and when Bohemia ,
was a great and powerful kingdom, just
as it is ticking now. Twenty-four hours
—the day and night—are marked upon
the dial, instead of twelve, for the clock
follows the sun. When night comes
the face of the dial becomes black, just
as the night is, and when the day ap•
i
proaches it turns ts great white face
out to meet the light. You can tell
from it what time the sun rises, and at
what hour he will set. Hanusch, the
clever fellow who made it, was some
thing of an astronomer; but men knew
.ie - about the stars in' those days.
But the hour has arrived—it is ten
o'clock. Watch closely, for the deli
cate mechanism is now at work. Out
of a small door above the dial comes a
skeleton, ghastly and grim. Around
its bony neck old Father Time has
hung his remorseless scythe. The
gaunt figure produces an hour-glass,
and turns it to indicate that another
hour has gone and that the new has
commenced. It then pulls violently a
bellrope, precisely as the old sexton in
a New England village church would
do on a Sabbath morning. At each
pull the bell strikes, and the
skeleton bows its head in approval.
Then out of the mysterious tower
comes a miser with a bag of itold. He
clenches it tight, for it is evident his
time has come, and he hates to leave his
wordly goods behind. He walks about
and beats the ground with his stick.—
There is avarice in his heart and eye—
'a sort of cold relentless grasping after
dollars, that no one can mistake. This
figure is the masterpiece of the clock.
When the skeleton has rang the hour,
both it and the miser retire in the tow
er. Then a great bronze door opens,
and the twelve apostles pass before the
Saviour and bow down to him. Far
upon the tower their faces look life-like
and the scene is impressive.
Adelina Pattl-11er Marriage Contract—
A Gay and Festive Bridegroom.
A Paris correspondent of the New
York Times writes as follows
. .
I have just heard. the particulars of
the marriage settlement agreed to be
tween the Marquis de Caux and Ade
lina Patti, or rather exacted by Baron
James Rothschild, as the friend and
guardian of the latter.
The sum of 500,000 francs, constituting
the whole of the Diva's fortune, is to be
placed in trust for the benefit of herself
and children. The principal is not to
be touched under any circumstances
whatever, Wile Patti herself only en
joying the interest thereof.
One-third of her future earnings is to
be set aside in the same manner, the
remaining two-thirds to be used as her
husband and herself may decide.
The father and mother of the bride
are to have each a pension of 6,000 francs
which is to be allocated out of her in
come. This provision is honorable to
M'lle. Patti, whose sentiments of daugh
terly affection have always shown them.
selves superior to every other consider
ation.
The Marquis de Caux asked to have
the sum of 450,000 francs set aside for
the payment of the mortgagee on his
estate, but on this point the Baron de
Rothschild and Maurice Strakosch were
• - - - -
inexorable, so that the property will
have to be put up for sale, unless the
creditors of the Marquis consent to wait
for the chance of repayment from Ade
llna's future earnings, a contingency
not very probable from the known
spendthrift habits of her future hus
band.
It is calculated that at present Mlle.
Patti earns about 400,000 francs a year,
which, with prudence, would soon en
able the Marquis to pay off his debts.
Accustomed, however, to live at a rate
far above his income, it is not likely
that he will be induced to put such a
restraint on his tastes as will enable him
to accomplish so desirable a result. It
bad been stated that as soon as the mar
riage took place the services of Strakoech
would be dispensed with. So far is this
from being the fact that the Marquis
offers a contract to him to continue his
services to Mlle Patti for three years, on
terms nearly as advantageous as before.
You may rely upon the above being the
exact conditions of the marriage settle
ment. They have been agreed to on
both sides, and nothing remains but to
complete the marriage itself, which, I
understand is to take place on the Ist of
August.
A Beautiful Incident
- A naval officer being at sea in a dread-
Ail storm, his lady, who was sitting in
the cabin near him, and filled with
alarm for the safety of the vessel, was
so surprised at his composure and se
renity that she cried out—
"My dear' are you not afraid? How
is it possible you can be calm in such a
dreadful storm ?"
He rose from his chair, lashed to the
deck ; supporting himself by a pillar of
the bed place, drew his sword, and,
pointed to the breast of his wife, ex•
claimed :
" Are you not afraid 2"
She instantly answered, " No."
" Why ?" said the officer.
" Because " rejoined the lady, "I
know that this sword is in the hands of
my husband„ and he loves me too well
to hurt me,"
" Then," said, he, "remember, I
know in whom I believe, and that he
holds the winds in his lists, and the wa
ter in the hollow of his hands."
Trouble Enough.
A little darkey was recently found
sitting on the stoop of a fashionable
house not far from Saratoga, crying
pitifully.
"What's de matter wid you ?" asked
a colored woman.
"Matter nuff—double trouble all ober

A Seven Million Dollar Mortg age and a
Seven Thousand Dollar Stamp.
ST. Lours, July 28, 1868.
There was yesterday entered on the
records of St. Louis county, Mo., a mortgage
covering, property to the value of $7,000,000,
on which was placed a stamp for which
$7,000 bad been paid into the national
Treasury. The mortgage is executed in
favor Drier E. Murdock, James Punnet and
Luther C. Clark. It was made by the di
rectors of the Missouri Pacific Railroad to
secure bonds issued by the company to pay
the $5,000,000 purchase money for the road,
under the legislative act of last winter, and
1,500,000 of bonds, known as the Dresden
bonds, given some time ago for work on
that part of the road west 'of Dresden ; and
the remainder is to be applied to change the
guage of the road so as to oniforin with the
Kansas Pacific Railway and place the road
in complete and effective working order.
The • amount of the purchase money will
probably be paid in Missouri State bonds,
whit& will reduce' the State debt to that
amount. The -bonds ' are to run twenty

and bear six per cent interest.

My Dear Sir:—l am greatlyobliged for
your favor of the 2Ainst. Those. who.aup--
pcae.that I do not acquiesce in the work of
the National Democratic Convention, or that
-I do not sincerely desire the election of the
'nominees, know very little of my character,
believing as I really do, that the preserva

nently depends on the success of the Demo
cratic party in the coming election, where I
feel I should not only falsify my own record,
but commit a crime against my country. I
never aspired to the Presidency on account I
of myself, I never sought its doubtful hon •
or, and certain labors and responsibilities
merely for the position. My own wish was
to promote, it I could, the good of the coun- -
and to rebuke the spirit of revolution
which had invaded every sacred precinct of
liberty. When, therefore, you pronounced
the al elements in question false,
you did exactly right. Principles'
and not men is the motto for the
rugged crisis in which we are now strug
gling. Had I been made the Presidential
nominee I should have considered it a

which I bad proclaimed and practiced ; but

Lira. Lincoln Again
A good many of the journals which used
to bask in the.court smiles of Mr. Lincoln's
administration, and could see no fault in, if
they did not really pay adulation to, his
wife, were led into the coarsest abuse of
their former Idol when she chose to offer for
sale a portion of her former wardrobe, and
are now out again in full blast because she
proposes to visit Europe. It Is insisted that
she is going to call upon Queen Victoria,
josslbly to pay her a visit, and some of our
ournalists are thrown into spasms on ac
count of the mortification which she is ex
pected to bring upon America by her vul
gar airs at foreign courts. We do not pro
pose to champion Mrs. Lincoln, but really,
as to vulgarity, it seems to an unsophisti
cated taste that no coarseness can be greater
than that which abuses a lady through the:
press because she sees fit to visit Europe,
and that lady one who was "loyally" bow
ed down to by her present assailants when
she was supposed to possess power and
patronage. Some of our cotemporaries
seem really to be almost in despair about
it. They say that Mr. Lincoln had no in
fluence over her when be lived, (though at
that time her adulators appeared to think
she had a good deal over - him,) and that
even her own son Robert can't control her,
which is undutiful in the extreme in Mrs.
Lincoln, and may possibly, In its results,
prove a warning to all other parents who
disobey their children.
In this dilemma Reverdy Johnson, who
has courteously acceded to her request to
secure passage for her on the same steamer
in which he goes to England, is invoked
to an immediate exercise of his diplomatic
powers by endeavoring to induce her not to
thrust herself into European court society.
This is a rich idea, and we fancy wo see
the venerable ambassador practicing di
plomacy on Mrs. Lincoln across the ocean,
by way of keeping his hand in for Queen
Victoria. Alas, the vicissitudes of human
fortune! She, who was the worshipped
Presidentess of the last term is not now
considered fit to enjoy the privilege of many
an American lady abroad of being present
ed to royalty. Whether Mrs. Lincoln pro
poses to visit Queen Victoria or not we
have no means of knowing, though it
would seem scarcely probable, unless she
were invited, in which case no one can dis-
Eute her right to accept the invitation.
ven if she be not an elegant and well-bred
person, there is no reason to expect, after
what has occurred in the past, that Euro
pean courts will think less of us from any
exhibition Mrs. Lincoln is likely to make.

Distressing Accident—A Husband Shoots
His Wife for a Burglar.
From the Wilmington (N. C.) Journal, July 19.
A distressing accident occurred in this
city on the night of Friday last, by which a
wife was accidentally shot, and it is feared
fatally injured, by a husband. who is driven
almost to distraction by this unfortunate
occurrence. The parties are Mr. and Mre.
John McAvoy, who reside on Second be
tween Brunswick and Bladen streets. It
seems that the night previous the house im
mediately adjoining Mr. MeAvoy's resi
dence was robbed. His vigilance was thus
aroused in more than an ordinary degree,
and on the night of the accident he 'lm
agined that he heard someone In the house,
and , arousing his wife, he communicated
his impression to her. He thought, too,
that he distinguished the sound of human
voices whispering. Seizing his pistol from
the pillow under which it lay, Mr. McAvoy
proceeded to the top of the staircase, Aut
behind the head of his bedstead, in the at•
tempt to discover something further. His
wife, whom he left on the couch, had by
this time gotten up and after looking
around in the dark, approached her hus•
band from the other side , of the bed near
the staircase where he was standing. See
ing the object approaching him, and think
ing his wife still in bed, Mr. McAvoy sup-•
posed it to be a burglar and crying, "I've
got you now," fired His wife fell, crying
out 'Oh you have shot me." The pistol
was charged with a ball and a few small
Shot, which entered the breast of Mrs. Mc-
Avoy, and passing through the lungs,
lodged just under the skin near the small
of the back. Surgical aid was obtained and
the ball extracted. The condition of the
sigferer is critical and it is feared she will
not recover.

ST. Louts, July 29, 1868.
On Saturday the Democrats of Saline and
Pettis counties held a Seymour and Blair
ratification meeting at Elk Lick. The null
cals had threatenedlo break up the meet
lug. When Colonel Phillips, a gallant fed
eral officer, began to speak the radicals at
tacked. the meeting, largely composed of
women and children, with clubs and rocks.
They were driven off and twice afterwards
they renewed the attack. Finally the radi
cal leader drew a revolver and shot a Dem
ocrat named Cheatham. This was the sig•
nal for a general battle. About one hun
dred shots were tired in the melee and three.
radicals. were killed and seven badly
wounded. Several Democrats were also
badly wounded, and about twenty on both'
aides more or less severely. The radicals
were driven to the woods and the meeting
broke up in the wildest dismay and con.
fusion.
Freedom or the Preis in Alobama.
The new. Alabama Legislature ventures
on delleate ground very early. It has just
made a' law for the punishment of newt'.
paper editors who publish "els.nderona't
articles, and as the character of the articles
is to be determined by the caprice or prej
udice of the functionary before whom com
plaint is made, the law willdoubtless prove
a convenient tool for crushing out obnox
ious newspapers. What a nigger legisla
tor wants is to put any man in prison who
calls .him Coffee. As the right kind of a
judge can readily see that, such an epithet
paste odium equal to any slander, the law
will accomplish its purposes. The partynt

was gone he would 'give her the liaise in
which she lived and Vooolin money. If
she did not, he would go all the game, but,
would leave her penniless. He asked her
to fix Mention and 'pack his trunk, and
have it ready by Thursday morning, all
which she agreed to dp. I He bought a
trunk for the girl, and gave her $2OO for her
outfit. On Thursday morning he left his
Lome. While his band '*as on the .door
latch, his wife told him that she should re•
main just whore she was and take care of
the children, and if at any time he wished
to come back, the door would be open to
him; He went over to.the house where the
'young woman was In waiting. He gave
her father some money, add he accompan
ied the parties to the cars.l On the way
down the father referred to some expenses
he bad incurred in giving his daughter
music lessons. The merchant handed him
$2OO, which he pronounced satisfactory.
After the train had started, the old man
told the story of the elopement. When
some one remarked to him that the mer
chant
would desert his datighter as he had
hie wife, he said that was, impossible, for
he had never seen such love between two
persons before. When he wee asked why
he did not put a atop to e Step that could
only be fraught with misery to all sides,he
said that his daughter, when she told him
of her intended journey, showed him a bot
tle of poison, and said if heopened his head
on the matter till after she was gone, she
would poison him and herself too. And she
would have done it, he said. The sequel
to this affair is more than; usual tragical.
The parties immediately sailed for Califor
nia, and for some reason not explained
took the return vessel back to New York.
They landed lathe city, where the girl was
left at a hotel, penniless. he succeeded In
reaching this place, deserted and ruined,
and sent immediately for her father, who
visited her at the hotel. She agreed to go
home with him in the morning. He called
for her at the time agreed upon. He found
her a corpse. She had committed suicide
during the night. In the meantime, the
merchant Lad not been heard from after de
serting the girl at the hotel. Ten days ago
he appeared at the door of his own house.
True to her promise, and true to her wo
manly love, she threw the doors wide open
and bade him welcome. Hidden from the
eyes of his neighbors and friends, he re
mains in-doors. The community are equal
ly divided whether he ought to be tarred
and feathered' or forgiven;
Negroes at the a:demi . ° Convention
Many of the Radicals have found it con
venient, since the adjournment of the Con
vention at Chicago, which 'nominated Grant
and Colfax, to deny that negroes participa
ted as delegates from Southern States in
its proceedings. To all these who mayhavo
put any faith in these denials, we commend
a reference to the Cotoredl Citizen, a negro
paper, published lir this city, of tne date of
the 24th inst. It has a speech made at La
fayette Square, New Orleans, on the occa
sion of a Grant ratification meeting, by a
negro fellow, rejoicing in] the elegant and
euphonious name of Hon. P. B. S. Rinch
back. This negro in vindicating the Radi
cals from the', charge Ithatl they were not
the negroes' true friends, said:
"And what better evidence can I give you
of the intention of our Northern Republi
can friends to meet us on! terms of equality
than the fact that the colored delegates to
that Convention were received with open
arms, and treated with a kindness and con
sideration that to me was a great and agree
able surprise. It is true one member, who
I had been told was a little touchy on the
nigger question, drew back a little when I
was introduced to him, and perhaps's little
more,_ when our friend, Graham, was pre
sented, but that was an exception ; and the
almost universal treatment of us seemed to
indicate a desire that we should feelperfect
ly free and unconstrained, and to convince
us that our color should be no bar to an
equal footing in the Convention.
• • • • • • • •
"The great majority of the American peo
ple are now, thank God, upon the side of
right and justice, and they will prevail. I
telt you, my fellow-citizens, I realized more
fully than ever before, when, at Chicago,
what had been gained for the colored race
in the past lew years, when I saw the re
spect with which we were treated ; not be
cause of our individual merits, but because
we were the representatives of a race.
When I saw a colored man, J. H. Harris,
invited to address the Convention, can you
doubt the sincerity of the Republican party
after that."
That settles the question whether negroes
were received at the Chicago Convention or
not. There was no distinction of color in
that body. The negro delegates from
Louisiana and other Southern States bad
the same privileges exactly with the white
delegates from Ohio or Pennsylvania. Ja
phet met Ham and embraced him.—Cin

A Famine in Hyde County—Four Thou.
sand Five Hundred People Without
!deans of Support,
CHARLOTTE, July 25.—The people of
Hyde county, hitherto one of the most pro
ductive counties of the j State, are at this
time suffering greatly from successive dis
asters to their crops, so that a considerable
portion of the population, unless they re
ceive prompt assistance, are said to be in
peril of starvation. Ip addition to the
losses which, in common with the
whole Southern cominunity, they suf
fered from the war, nearly their entire
crops of last year failed, leaving only a scan
ty subsistence of the most common necessa
ries of life to tide them , over to the present
year, when they looked .o the summer crops
to relieve them from actual want. Their
expectations have met with a mournful dis
appointment in a disaster peculiar to that
section, of floods arising from swollen lakes
which have submerged a large portion of the
county, wholly destroying the wheat, oats,
potato, and vegetable crops of this year and
so seriously injuring corn as to render cer
tain a very large deficiency for another
year. Of the whole population, which is
7,000, white and-black, it is represented that
not more then one-fourth have means to
supply thel rnecessitiai. over one-half of
the remaining three-fourths have less than
thirty days' provisions, without the maims
of procuring more. Hyde county, which
is the scene of this dismal calamity, has
never before it Is understood, even after
the impoverishments of the war, asked aid
from the Government, or from other com
munities or from individuals, but has
cheerfully contributed of her slender means
to the relief of others.

A Dog On Ws Tr s—
to avelFrom Kentucky
Illsiourt,
(From the Louisville Journal, July 17.)
Not long since Mrs. 8., residing in oneof
the interior counties of Missouri, left her
home on a visit to some relatives living in
Henry county, in this State, bringing with
her a favorite dog. On arriving in this clty
she missed her pet, and search and inquiry
failing to elicit aught concerning him, she
was compelled to continue bed o u rney with
out him; Fourteen days after the lady bad
left her home the family were surprised at
the reappearance of "Fido," whom they
thought worrying the pigs or "baying the
moon" lo Kentuoliy. Not less than
nine hundred Miles had been traversed by
hie dogship, And when ,it is remembered
that he had been brought hither by rail,
and could have bad no trail td lead hita
beck to his old quarters; that the broad
Ohio and the still broader Missituilppi, not
to mention hundreds of streams of smaller
proportions, lay between him and his pup
pyhood's home, theiourney was a remark
able one.
