In this frame or mind, I ttrilailtli ar
rived, with hisshattereil vessel, at the lit-
Ile town of Marinhos, in the province
or La g una. One day, while sorrowfully
pacing the deck, thinking of lost friends
and blasted hopes, Ids attention was at
tracted by the sweet voice of a woman
who was s i n ,6 lg out, of the patriotic airs
of the country. Ile turned his eyes in
the direction from which the inspiring
strains came, and beheld a beautiful
woman, of light, graceful figure, and
upon whose dark curls the suns of
less than twenty summers had shone.

tion to take collies at the house of the
young lady's parents. Amore intimate
acquaintance only increased the regard
her appearance lirst inspired. In a
letter written to a gentleman in New
York, sonic years ago, he said : "I found
that the hidden treasure I had discover
ed was a gem of rare and inestimable
worth.' But I have since reproached
myself for removing her from her peace
tut native retirement to scenes of danger,
toil, and suffering. I felt it most deeply
on that bitter day when, at the mouth
of the Po, within reach of the Austrian
shot, while still hoping to restore her to
life, I took her pulse and was horrified
to Had her n corpse. Then I sang the
hymn of despair, and prayed for for-

her peaceful home stood more forcibly
before me."
Such was the first Wiecting of Anna
and the future hero of Italy. They
were soon married; and from that
time to her tragic death, in 1549,
period of ten years, she followed her
husband in all of his campaigns—shar
ing the toils of the march, the dangers
of the battle, the perils of the camp often
pitched amid death-breeding marshes,
fording rivers, crossing ahnost impene
trable forests, or fighting by his side,
ever brave, hopeful and cheerful, aiding
in his arduous labors, and comforting
him in the hours of adversity and defeat.
An excellent rider, she was present in
nearly every engagement, rallying and
encouraging the dispirited troops, car
rying orders to a distant part of the field,
or ministering to the wounded or dying
men.
On the occasion of a battle near Cali
tibani, she resisted every entreaty of
her husl:and to seek a place of safety,
and took upon herself the (Pity of serv- I
ing out the ammunition to the soldiers.
During the heat of the combat, seeing a
portion of the line wavering and threat
ening to break, she rode rapidly toward
the column, hoping to inspire the men
with fresh courage. liefore reaching
them, however, they brokeand lied, and

cavalry closed around her. hisetni

another shot killed her faithful horse;
and further exertion being impossible,
she was obligtal tosurrender. The iiiih•at
of the republicans was mint disastrous,
and hardly a man escapiiil. As dark
ness came on the massacre ceased ; and
Anna, believing that her husband had
not survived lie slaughter, sought and
obtained permission to seek (Pr his r,

two of her countrymen who asst leadn

ghastly faces for some mark of resent

she looked in Valli, :111 , 1:11 last ;ilia:lllon

On reaching the ('auras River, she found
it a roaring, maddened torrent, swollen
by the heavy rains to nearly a third of
a mile in width. Destitute of a saddle,
she dared not trust herself upon her
horse in the strong current, and adopted
the unromantic. but safer expedient of

How the Chinese,Came to Wear pigtails
It is curious how the Chinese tame to
wear pig-tails. Several hundred years
ago the inhabitants of China wore their
hair as we do, but there was war be
tween China and Tartary, and the
Chinese got the worst of it and were
conquered. When the first Tartar king
of the present dynasty came to the
throne, he determined to humble the
pride of the Chinese. He began in I 64-1,
by ordering everybody to shave off all
the hair except a tuft on the crown ; that
being the way he wore his own hair.
There were agreat many proud and high
spirited gentlemen in China who would
not obey the command and the result
was that they had their heads chopped
MI; It is rather an uncomfortable thing
for a man to lose his head. The Chi
nese thought so, end concluded to shave
and braid their hair into a pig-tail,
although it was an act of degrada
tion. They felt it keenly, but as the
years rolled on, they forgot the humilia
tion and began to like the fashion. As
soon as the pig-tails became fashionable,
the young gentlemen of China tried to
get up the longest, neatest, and glossiest
tails possible. They cultivated them
just as young gentlemen in the United
States, and almost everywhere else, cul
tivate their whiskers and moustache,
greasing, combing, brushes, and finger
ing them all the time.
Wybrowe's
On my way down to a certain garden
party at Fulham on a fine afternoon,
with my friend Charley Twistleton, 1
heard the following story of a lady con
cerning whom everybody was just then
talking.
"Wybrowe, Brazilian millionare, reLat.
severity or thereabouts, marries Helen
Chetwynd, impecunious belle tetat
nineteen, daughter of a British diplo
mat in those parts ; and after two years
of connubial felicity, considerately dies.
Wybrowe is a jealous Spaniard, and his
jealousy looks beyond his own life. So
he leaves a terrible will behind him.—
This cunningly contrived document
provides that his widow—then just
twenty-one—shall receive ant enjoy an
income of 1.15,0n0 per annum as long—
and only so long—as she shall contain
unmarried. That if she do marry again
she shall receive absolutely nothing—
the entire estate of the deceased passing
to two distant relatives, believed to be
living in obscure poverty in London.
Now comes the n lost curious part of
the story.
A good many more besides old NVy

to be nearly as rich as Cro.sits--a half

Alvarez Smith wont away and thought
out, his vengeance. This in How lie tiripk

years.
During Wybrotve's lifetime he kept
quiet and made no sign. \\len the old
man was dead, Smith broke in upon the
widow, and, with full ltnowledge of the
provision of IVybnlNve's will, renewed
Iris former propositions. They were re

IVybrotve grew nervous and ill under
this implacable persecution, which it
Nvo. iiiipossible to tall all end to. And
the worst of it was that she felt her ptu•-

over her; that those terrible eyes of his

ever avoided mentioning this feeling to

"1 know him now," I answered ; "I

his existence two hours ago."
ller pale cheeks flushed painfully.
" Then you have heard—^"
" Every thing," I answered, stopping
her.
There is Lady Oswestry ycndcr
Mrs. Wybrow, quid:elle& her pace,
and said nothing more till she was safe
under Amy Oswestry's wing again.
The season was over ; London empty
ing fast; duns pressing ; the heat intol
erable. Howbeit I abode still in the
Sahara of Burton street. Aunt Medusa
had gone down into Kent with the
Boodles, having extracted from mo a
promise to come down for the Septem
ber shooting—a promise I only intended
to keep if—
The " if " was in I'ark Lane. Lady
Oswestry had not yet made her move,
hesitating between Buxton and Lin
denbad ; I was watching the turn of the
scale. For with Lady Oswestry would
go Helen Wybrowe. And where Helen
Wybrowe went I meant to follow. I
had not spoken yet, though nearly a
month had passed since that day at
Fulham, I had marked with a white
rose. Shehadhardlygiven me a chance.
And yet she knew, who knew me ILS I

loved me with the one love of her life.
Only between her loving me and me
winning her, there was much. Never
theless, the mask we wore, before each
other as before others, was getting too
stifling to be worn much longer. It fell
from both of us at last.
I had been sitting with her in Lady
Oswestry's morning room, under the
shelter of the sunshades, among the
flowers, one day for nearly an hour.—
My lady was, heaven knows where;
and we had been all alone all the time.
Commonplaces had languished and died.
There had been a silence, which those
heavy violet eyes filled divinely enongh,
but which both of us knew must be
broken : and only in one way.
I looked up into her face in its pas
sionate pallor, in her trembling lips I
read what made me take her swiftly in
my arms; :and then the silence was
broken by the sweet sound of her own
name—" Helen!"
She shivered, as she had shivered in
that valse, (oily this time not with fear.
And her head, with its diadem of amber
hair, sank down upon my breast, and I
bent mine till my lips touched hers, and
clung to them. I had won her! Not
yet.

1,111 it ,doer till. A man in a fur-lined
traveling robe, and a peaked cap over
his eyes, took a through ticket to Lin

the platform, half a dozen yards behind.
I heard hint hurrying on after me ;
just as the guard had opened the dour
4,f the empty earriage he caught up to
me and got in too. 'l'he door was slam

looked at him tranquilly enough, I
think, but 1 couldn't help feeling that
the reneontre was by no means an agree
able one ; that the express stopped no
where between London and Dover, and
that Alvarez Smith was probably as
mad fts any inmate of Harwell.
HOWeVer, 1 ain not easily out of head,
mud, as I say, returned his glare with a
tranquil stare, and went on smoking,.
'Whether he had expected his melo
drama to produce more effect, and was
disappointed; whether my calmness
irritated him afresh, I don't know.—
Certain it is that he rose and came to-.
wait me with an oath.
It struck me forcibly that he was dan
gerous, and I gradually slipped my hand
into the inner breast-pocket of my trav
eling jacket, and unfastened the loop
which kept a useful little revolver dc
poche steady there.
There seemed likely to be a necessity,
disagreeable but imperative, for shoot
ing this man before we got to Dover.
And it so happened that I felt in no
humor to run any risk by the exercise
of an unwise forbearance towards a mad
brute like this, if it came to a light.
It appeared, though, that he had
something to say before lie began, for
he seated himself exactly opposite to
me, and muttered hoarsely—
" So we are alone at last—you and I."
"So it seems," I returned. I saw
that, if he meant to have a row, lie
didn't feel quite u to the mark yet,
and wanted to tulle himself into the
fury, so I thought I might ventute to
! light another cigar, which I did, loosing
my grip on the pistol but for a moment,
but keeping my eye on my man the
while.
He actually gnashed his yellow teeth
at me. He looked so unutterably hid
eous and at the same time so intensely
ludicrous, while he was doing it, that I
laughed.
"Take care!" he screamed, shivering
with wrath; Caramba! you have not
won yet."
"No?" I tnquired, insolently.
"No! curse you! you never shall."
''Bob ! you say so, my good man'?"
`I ! I have scorn it f"
"Your I sneered, rather enjoying
his fury, and with no mind to spare hint
any stab I could give him.
'•You! You are a madder than I
thought you were."
"You shall never hove her! Madre
dr Dios! never.''
" You're wrong. I shall."
He smiled in a ghastla• fashion with
his white, dry lips.
"No," lie said, and if his tone was
rainier it was twice as dangerous" and
threatening now. "No!" I shall keep
my oath—he sure of that. Listen !" he
went on after a pause, and with that
same foreed calmness; " from the day I
saw her first, and each day inure and
more, have loved her—this woman,
h -
" Who, from that S:0110 day, and each
day more and more, has loathed and
hated you," I struck in. "
By the light of the lamp above us I
could see his yellow face turn the ashen
hue of a doel man's, as that cruel taunt
of mine hit hone.
He eovered his face with his hanik,
and muttered a faint, dull 1110:111, as
though he had in every deed gut his
heart hurt.
The crisis Wai ecidcutly etppruaoltiug;
the madman could liardly contain him
self much longer. In another minute
he might be at my throat; and then •
disagreeable as it might be, I should in
evitably have to shoot him. Alvarez

Spanish creole mother of his were in the

his rush.

liaising my right hand quickly, I
covered hint fairly now. My amiable

with a hideous Spanish blasphemy ;
most unexpectedly battled and ,eaten.

relieved to tied he was not so mad as to
have lost all fear for himself, and put
me under the painful necessity of wing

when the ‘friloit , iar,,t,,r this ~.tnry came
We had gone up the river one morn
ing in a "hen coop," had landed some
three miles or more above Lindenbad,
and strolled away, out of sight of the
boatmen along the batik, down to which
extended the low scrub and brushwood
of the forest.
We sat down on a sort of a little crag
which overhung the river; and from
which Helen had discovered a view,
which she was doing her best to sketch
under an organized series of interrup
tions front me. Lying there at her feet,
watching her eyes, and drinking in her
voice, thinking of that ne \c` life she had
given me, and that wan precious to me
for her sake, I was terribly near my.
death.
There was hardly a breath of air astir;
and yet, all at once, my pot hat, that
was tilted over my eyes to keep otf the
sun glare, rolled away across the turf,
dipped, so neatly and lightly that
hardly felt it, off my head.
A sharp crack and a little pull of white
smoke rising above a clump of brush
wood explained this phenomenon.
I saw at once what it meant, I was
on my feet and half way across to the
cover which sheltered my would be as
sassin in a couple of bounds. Another
bullet whizzed by my ear, and then I
sprung into the thicket, struck by one
lucky blow a smoking revolver from the
sinking hands, and flown at the throat
of—Alvarez Smith.
It was well I had lost nothing ; lie got
no chance of using his knife.
I heard Helen scream, and then saw
her fall lifeless on the turf where we
had been sitting, and then I was wrest
ling for life with a madman. He had
no science, but he held me like a fiend.
I cut him of his legs again ani again,
but he clung so desperately to me that
I couldn't drop him.—Each fresh strug
gle brought me nearer and nearer n,
the edge of the little crag. I guessed
what he wanted to do, and put all my
remaining strength into one tierce, des
perate effort to fling him.
This time he went down, but my i'cot
had slipped on the dry, short turf, and
he managed to pull me down upon him.
I felt his arms close round me in a
grip of steel as he twisted and Sc
toward the:edge ; I heard his )ell of
diabolical triumph in my ears ; knew
that we must roll over; felt the earth
slip away front me; felt the mad rush
of air by me; felt a shock that seemed
to stun me; and then, locked in eaeh
other's arms, the water closed over us
like a thick darkness.
Hu must have struck against .otm , -
thing in the fall, and have been stunned
or dead when he reached the water.
In a second I had wrenched myself
free from that deadly grip, had risen to
the surface and was striking out for the
bank. Ten minutes more and I was
kneeling beside Helen, slowly recover
ing her consciousness under the sym
pathizing care of a forestkeeper's wife.
The body of Alvarez Smith was pioked
up next clay. He had disguised hinoclf
so well while waiting his opportunity to
settle matters with me, as to have eluded
detection by the l'olizei Ampt, but I wa

On the first day of June next the cen
sus takers will begin their rounds in
their respective sub-divisions, visiting
each dwelling house, whether in city or
country, and each manufacturing estab
lishment, us also such other places ;is it
may be necessary to obtain information
from. Beginning with the population
he puts certain questions which ;ire
printed on pages of paper marked
" Schedule I." His first duty is to num
ber the dwelling houses in the order of
visitation and to number the famili,
contained therein in like manner. Let
us suppose that house No. 1 contains
one family. The census taker, who- is
an employed assistant of the [lilted
States Marshal, upon which official in
volves the duty of taking the census,
records the name of every person Will.e
place of abode on the first day of June,
1570, was in this family. A description
of each person is recorded, and includes
his or her age at last birthday, but it'
under one year, the months are simply
given. Furthermore, the sex must be
stated, if male with the letter " if
female with the letter "F." 'the color of
the person is thus recorded :—lf wh; te
with a "W," if black with a "II," if
mulatto with an "M," if Chinese with
" ('," and if Indian with an " I." The
importance of these questions are self
apparent. They enable the government
to ascertain the nanie, ago and color ..:
every person, front infaney to old age,
and it is therefore imperative upon the
people:to answereacl question tru th Int ly
Maiden ladies and widows of doubtful
ages should not confuse the government
and render its census tables unreliable
by insisting upon their being not ounce
than twenty-live years old, while 01.1
beaux of sixty must honesty say sixty
;mil not stick at forty. Reliability being
the aim and desire of the authorities, all
;•itizens will perceive the neeessity
answering truthfully.
I•Ht,FESSI.NS, WCU PAT 1...N5 A Nirrit.%
In the foregoing six questions the
number of persons in each family is ob
tained, and strictly speaking, the celislls
of population is taken. But it is desira
ble that the profession, occupation or
trade of each person, male or female.
shall be obtained, and to this end a ques
tion concerning ,this desideratum will
be but. If the person is a lawyer, :t
shopkeeper or a carpenter, he simply
states the fact for record. Where tiler,
is no business the answer is "none," ex
cept in cases where sonic aristocratic in
dividuals, desires to inform the govel !i
-ntent that he is a "gentleman," whieh
1110:01,4 everthing, from a person who
lives on the income arising front his
property to one who spends his time in
lighting the tiger. Seriously, however,
it being desirable to learn what the var
ious occupations of the population are,
this inquiry should he fully answered.
The eighth and ninth inquiries reWr
to the value of real estate awl persg gnat
property owned by each person—ow
the value assessed by government for
taxes, but the value putupon such prop
erty either by the owner himself or by
the market. For example—A person
may own a house and lot worth
but which the tax assessors value at
Ile should report the value :it
the first named figures to the census
takers, so that it may he ascertdinegl w Mgt
was the cash value of real and per:inn:Li
property in the county, Skate and
throughout the republic on the lit of
.11111 e of the present year.
MP:l'lr, I'AILENTAW•:,
The next inquiry of importance is the
tenth, Which requires the place of birth
of each person ; if a native of the United
States, the name of the State or Terri
tory must be given ; if lof foreign birth,
the name of the country in which born.
Inquiries eleven to seventeen, in schtsl
ule one, relate to parental, social and
educational matters. The eleventh and
twelfth require the information whether
the parents of the person were of foreign
birth, and are under two lines, one be
ing for the father and the other fur t h e
mother, so that in cases where 011,
parent was born, sav in Europe, and the
other was a native, he fact may be re
corded appropriately. Where the per
son was born within the year the month
should be given January, February,
&e.), in answer to inquiry thirteen, and
if married within the year the month
when this interesting event took place
should also be stated. In this connec
tion we would call attention to what
seems to be an omission in this sched
ule. No inquiry is made as to the social
condition of the person, except where
he or she has been married within the
year. l'his is an important tact to as
certain. When the last census was
taken all persons were required to state
whether they were single, married or
widowed. We would call the attention
of the 'United States Marshal to this ap
parent error.
Inquiries fifteen, sixteen and seven
teen refer to attendance at school with
in the year and to want of educational
attainments, as whether the person can
not read and cannot write. Inquiry
eighteen is whether the person is deaf
and dumb, blind, insane, idiotic., to
which we trust there will be a negative
answer.
Under this head are the nineteeth and
twentieth inquiries, which conclude all
to be answered in schedule one. The
one requires information regarding male
citizens of the United States of twenty
one years of age and upwards. This is
a very proper inquiry, as it enables the
govern went to ascertain the voting popu
iation of the republic at the present time.
The pertinence of the twentieth and
last inquiry is not apparent. It requires
information regarding " male citizens
of the United States of twenty-one years
of age and upwards, whose right to vote
is denied or abridged on other grounds
than rebellion or other crime." This
doubtless includes persons living in
States where a property or educational
qualification is demanded by their
constitutions, and persons incapaciated
by reason of ailments, such as madness,
&c., and in this respect is proper. It
would also be interesting and important
to learn how many persons are denied
the right to vote because of "rebellion
or other crime."
I E=
Schedule No. 2 is devoted solely to a
list of persons who died during the year
ending June I, IS7O. As in the first
schedule, the number of the family is
given ; then follows the name of every
person who died during the year whose
place of abode at the time of death was
in this family. The age at last birthday
(where an infant the number of months),
the sex, color and condition—that is,
whether single, married or widowed.
Also the place of birth, whether foreign
or native, naming the State, Territory
or foreign country ; the nativity of the
parents, the month in which the person
died, the profession, occupation or trade
and the disease or cause of death. This
table will prove of great value to medical
men and to science in general. The in
quiries are simple and will be readily
answered, and, being divested of the
formidable disquisitions on zvmoties"
which Dr. Harris used to indulge in
weekly, will prove a source of much in
terest and instruction to all eoncerned
in the health Of our population.
I'II,WE'CTION - 3 l.rr ßl-
The third schedule is devoted to the
rural districts :mil is full of inquiries of
importance. It requires the name a

001.1.1:1;1I5, ACA11I:.\111.15 AND SCIriI()I,S
The information required respecting
oureducational institutions can he read
ily given, involving as it does but few
inquries, and these of a very simple or
der. It is necessary to state the average
number of teachers, male and female,
the average number of pupils of each
sex and the income for the year ending
.lone 1, Is7o, for the endowment, taxa
tion, public funds and from other sour
ces, including tuition. The character,
rank or hind of the school mustbe given
under the following heads:-Classical, in
cluding universities colleges and acade
mies ; Professional, including law, medi
cine, theology, technological, schools of
m in ing,schoolsof art and music,commer
cial and military. The public schools
must be reported whether normal, high,
grammar, graded common or ungraded
common. The private schools must be
reported whether day or boarding. To
these educational institutions are added
inquiries respecting parochial and char
ity schools. This part of schedule live
appears to us very full. Nothing is left
undone towards obtaining full and ac
curate information of our schools, and
if the person called upon for such infor
mation reply fairly to each inquiry, a
vast amount of interesting facts will be
gathered together on one of the roost
important subjects.
ETEBBM'S
Very httle is demanded under this
head. The inquiries are confined to the
number of church organizations, num
ber of church edifices, the denomina
tions, the total number of persons which
the churches of each denomination will
accommodate and the value of church
property. At the time the Census bill
was before Congress it was suggested
that each person be required to state
what his religious belief was, or rather
what religion he professed, but the sug
gestion was rejected on the ground of its
prying into the human conscience, so
that it was finally decided to ignore the
spiritual part of religion and confine the
inquiry to the material part, in the shape
NUMBER 23.
of churelii,, their ACCOII
value.
The foregoing artiele is a compilation
from the schedules to he used by the
census takers, so that our readers !nay
depend upon the itectiracy of its state
ments. By reading it over carefully
every person will be unaided I, answer
the inquiries without delay and clearly
and intolligildv, tint , avoiding the. risk
of a tine fo r refusing to give, or giving
false information, besides saving the

Ups mid Down,. of Life
M r. John Hart is creating a great furore
in a minstrel hall in New York by his per
fect delineations of negro character. Ile
was once a millionaire. When the oil fever
broke out in Pennsylvania, Mr. I tart
owned,a hundred acres of wild land near
'chiconte, Pa.. worth about sixteen cents an
acre. lie was then running a canal-boat on
the Delaware and Hudson Canal. In the
fall of laud, several intro erase oil wells were
discovered on Mr. Hart's land. Stock min -
panies were formed in which he was a
prominent shareholder, and at one time he
was offered t ., ':',00,000 for his interest. This
was refused. Ito left the canal, built a
most magnificent private residence, wore
diamonds of almost fabulous value, and
seemed made of money. At one time he
was a prominent candidate for Congress,
but failed to secure the nomination through
the inertness of a trusted friend. Fortune's
wheel suddenly turned backward. Mr.
Hart was inveigled into more oil specula
tions, and within three years was without
a penny. He then turned his attention to
negro minstrelsy, and is said to be superior
to either Dan Bryant, T. D. Rico, or Dan
Emmet in his delineations of negro min
strelsy. lie speaks four different languages,
and liastravelledin Europe and Australia.
Ho was once wrecked in the Straits of Ma
gellan, and spent two mouths in destitution
on the Island of Terra del Fuego. Ile is
now playing an engagement at a salary of
SAO) a week.
