    A Ride for Lire.
There was a beautiful clear stream of
water, named Bluff creek, running
through camp, which supplied bathing
facilities to the officers and men, a priv
ilege which but few allowed to pass unim
proved. Whether to avoid the publicity
attending localities near camp, or to seek
a point In the bed of the stream where the
water was fresh and undisturbed, or from
a motive different from cither of these,
two of our young officers mounted their
torses one (lay without saddles and rode
down the valley of the stream perhaps a
mile or more in search of a bathing place.
Discovering ono to their taste, they dis
mounted, secured their horses, and, after
disposing of their apparel on the green
sward covering the banks, were soon
floating and floundering In the water like
a pair of young porpoises. How long they
had been enjoying this healthful recrea
tion, or how much longer they might have
remained, Is not necesary to the story.
One of them happening to glance toward
their horses observed the latter in a state
of great trepidation. Hastening from the
water to the bank, he discovered the cause
of the strange conduct on the part of the
norses, wnicn was noinmg more nor less
than a party of about thirty Indian war
riors, mounted, and stealthily making their
way toward the bathing party, evidently
having their eyes on the latter, and
Intent upon their capture. Here
was a condition of affairs that was
at least as unexpected as it
was unwelcome. Quickly calling out to
his companion, who was still in the water
unconscious of approaching danger, the
one on shore made haste to unfasten the
horses and prcpara for flight. Fortunate
ly the Indians, who were now within a
few hundred yards of the officers, were
coming from the direction opposite camp,
leaving the line of retreat of the officers
open. No sooner did the warriors find
that their approach was discovered than
they put their ponies to their best speed,
hoping to capture the officers before the
latter could have time to mount and get
their horses under headway. The two of
ficers in the meanwhile were far from
idle ; no flesh brushes or bathing towels
were required to restore a healthy circu
lation, nor was time wasted in an idle at
tempt to make a toilet. If they had
sought their bathing ground from motives
of retirement or delicacy, no such senti
ments were exhibited now, for, catching
up their wardrobe from the ground with
one hand and seizing the bridle rein with
the other, one leap and they were on their
horses' backs and riding toward camp for
dear life. They were not exactly in the
condition of Flora McFlimsy, with noth
ing to wear, but to all intents and pur
poses might as well have been so. Then
followed a race which, but for the risk
incurred by two of the riders, might well
be compared to that of John Gilpin. Both
of the officers were experienced horse
men ; but what experienced horseman
would willingly be thrust upon the bare
back of a flying steed, minus all apparel,
neither boots, breeches, nor saddle, not
even the spurs and shirt-collar, which are
said to constitute the full uniform of a
Georgian colonel, and when so disposed
of, to have three or four score of hideously
painted and feathered savages, well
mounted and near at hand, straining
every nerve and urglnsr their fleet
footed war ponies to their highest
fcpeed in order that the scalps of the ex
perienced horsemen might be added to the
other human trophies which grace their
lodges ? Truly this was one of the occa
. sions when personal appearance is noth
ing, and "a man's a man for a' that," so
at least thought our amateur Mazeppas as
they came dashing toward camp, ever
and anon casting anxious glances over
their shoulders at their pursuers, who de
spite every exertion of the former, were
surely overhauling their pale-faced broth
ers. To the pursued, camn seemed a lons-
way in the distance, while the shouts of
tne warriors, each time seeminar nearer
than before, warned them to urge their
steeds to their fastest pace. In a few mo
ments the occupants ef camn discovered
the approach of this strangely appealing
party, ic was an easy matter to recog
nize the warriors, but who could name
the two who rode at the front ? The pur
suing warriors, seeing that they were not
likely to overtake and capture the two
knights of the bath, slackened their pace
and sent a volley of arrows after them. A
few moments later and the two officers
were safe inside the lines, where they lost
no time in making their way to their tents
to attend to certain matters relating to
their toilet which the sudden appearance
of their dusky visitors had prevented. It
was a long time before they ceased to hear
allusions made by their comrades to the
cut and style of their riding suit. Gen.

Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, was
excessively annoyed when his sister
Louise married the sandy-haired. Marquis
of Lome, but what will fi say to the pros
pect of having Mr. James Gordon Bennett
of the New Voik Herald for a brother-in-law
? An apocryphal correspondent of a
Pennsylvania newspaper announces that
the gallant Commodore Is in love with a
sister of the Princess Alexandra, that the
course of true love never runs smooth,
and that a castle Is to be built in Spain im
mediately for the use of the happy pair.
Nor does the tide of glory that encircles
the New York boy pause here In its rise.
He is to succeed Amadeus on the throne of
bpain, as President or King, it matters
little which. St. James being the patron
saint of Spain, and America being the off
spring of Uastile and Arragon, it is sup
posed that a King James would be accept
able to the enthusiastic populace. With
youth, the na'ional religion, a Danish
princess, and a fortune for his trump
cards, the hand held by the Commodore
is strong enough to "see" Castelar and his
fellow-republicans, and "go him one bet
ter." From the United States a Louis
Philippe find a Napoleon went successively
to claim the crown of France, and Gari
baldi, the Staten Island dyer, was sum
moned hence to erect a tlirone in Italy.
Why may not Spain have like good for
tune? The fact is that royalty should
consider itself honored by an infusion of
the fresh, young blood of free America,
and if there is any condescension in the
case it is on the side of the sovereign citi
zen of the United States, who has all the
world from which to choose a bride.

Advice to Young Ladies.
The following sensible article comes to
us across the continent, in the San Fran
cisco News Letter :
At i he agricultural fair in Santa Clara,
prizes were offered for the best cooks
among the unmarried ladies. This is a
move in the right direction, and we hail
the fact as an evidence that we are to re
turn to the simplicity of early times, when
our wives were help-meets instead of
"help-eats;" when the young wife brought
to the matrimonial copartnership a wil
lingness to bear her share of the burden
and labor of life ; when one silk frock,
one china tea-set, half a dozen of silver
spoons, and counterpanes of her own
patchwork, were evidences of the simplic
ity of her taste, the economy of her life,
and the promises of future industry. Now
the young bride must begin where her
mother leaves off. Her outfit is a trous
seau, a gorgeous house, rich in upholstery,
mirrors, carvings, and ornamentations of
paint, plaster, silk, and velvet ; she tneers
at a cottage where love is, and prefers the
cheap and showy boarding-house to her
own but humbler home. The Santa Clara
fair gives not only a prize for the best
young cook who can manage a cheap and
economical dinner, but other prizes will
be hanging round within scent of savory
Viands to nose themselves out a wife
awkward, beardless, robust young farm
ers, ready to offer- themselves, their vir
tuous lives, their industrious habits, their
well-tilled forms, to a bride who will
know how to preside over the multifa
rious duties of a home in the country. We
advise our city girls to g In and win.
Show the country maiden that you, too,
know how to broil and bake, fry and
stew; then, for the finish to your feast,
give an extra dessert something to tickle
the farmer's palate, and ten to one you
will steal away from tho country girl the
honors and lovers of the day. And when
the farmer's boy a-wooing comes, accept
bis hard hand and honest lieart as a surer
anchor and a firmer trust than tho half

half-starved, city friends, fighting the
grinning fiend of genteel poverty, striv

their means, in constant dread of what
the world would say, slaves to society, we
would say, go to the country. With half-a-hundred

Unclean Faces.
It is a startling and somewhat amusing
fact, that the majority of people's faces
are seldom clean. Generally, the habit of
washing the face In the mornlnsr prevails.
but with many persons is the only time In
twenty-four hours that this ablution takes
plaae. With some women there exists a
preludice against washinsr their -faces at
all ; thev believe that bathinc and rub
bing produce eruptions that the skin of
tne lace is handsomer the less it is washed.
Men return from business, and, before en
tering tne drawing-room, retire to their
dressing apartments to " wash their hands
and brush their hair," unconscious that
their faces are not clean. Ladies come
home from a shopping excursion or a
drive in the park, and arrange their toi
lets without touching their faces, except
to uust tnem witn powuer as tne last act
of embellishment. We Invariably send
the children to their nurse to have their
faces washed before dinner, or a dozen
times daily ; but because we are men and
women, and have not streaks of black
across cheek or nose, we do not question
the cleanliness of our faces. It is taken
ror granted. that the faces of adult crea
tion are clean, unless It be those of ma
chinists, chimney-sweeps, or coal-heavers
We are certainlv impressed with the mud
dy complexion of Mrs. Slovenly, and re
mark how " sallow" Mrs. Slipshod has
become, but it did not occur to us that
their faces are always soiled. We meet
Miss Blank on the promenade, who has
risen late and washed hurriedly, leaving
the sleepy bugs in the corners of her eves;
we exclaim : " Had Miss Blank a clear
skin, how pretty she would be." We
should not believe that It was rarely that
juiss isianK's lace was tnorougiuy wasned;
that it was usually covered with " Orien
tal Cream" and dust, which being slept in
at night, and but half removed in the
morning, soon changes the natural purity
of the skin.
There is no portion of the body that re
quires so much care as to cleanliness as
the face. It is the receptacle for the dHst
from the room day and night. It receives
the siftings blown from the ash barrels
and coal carts, and all impurities in the
streets. Specks of oily dandruff from the
hair are hourly falling on the face, and
the most conservative of us are constantly
placing our faces against something that
soils, from the cheek of the sour babv.

we know to have fleas. If the persons
who are otherwise fastidiously nice would
be as proportionately particular to keep
their faces clean we should see more of

The Protestant Sisterhoods.
The growth and increase of Protestant
sisterhoods in tins country seems to Indi
cate that the system supplies a grateful re
lief to that large class of young women
who, possessing an abounding religious
sentiment, are dissatisfied with the nar
row pettiness of their lives and aspire to
express their devoutness in generous
ueeus. ine uatnonc nuneries have swal
lowed great numbers of these modern St.
Theresas, but the establishment of Pro
testant orders retaining pretty much all
the romantic paraphernalia that pertains
to the Homish nuns, has done away, to a
great extent, with the excuse for apos
tasy. The idea was first carried out In
Kalserworth, Prussia, some flftv vears
ago, when lit. Fleidner commenced, un
der great discouragement, an Institution
which has since developed Into one of the
marvel chanties ot the world. Shortly
after, similar communities were estab
lished in England, only to meet, at first,
with great unpopularity and even the zest
of martyrdom, the sisters being stoned bv
mobs and abused by the press; but since
then their good and charitable deeds have
made them respected and beloved by all.
Now, Sweden, France, Germany and Rus
sia have their Protestant sisterhoods, and
on this side the water there are a number
of communities under the auspices of the
episcopal church scattered up and down
through the country. In New York city
there are three separate communities.
The Sisters of the Holy Communion, the
oldest organization in the country, have
charge of St. Luke's Hospital. The Sis
ters of the Good Shepherd zealously en
gago In missionary work on Randall's
Island, visit the localities of misery and
vice in the city, gather in little children to
the industrial school, and put forth everv
effort to reclaim fallen womei. The
strongest society of all is that of St.
Mary, with Dr. Morgan Dix of Trinity
Church as its inspiration and guide. This
community consists of twenty-five sisters,
ana, iiKe nearly an tne others, is com
posed of three orders sisters, probation
ers and associates. Each society wears a
a distinctive dress of its own, of which
black serge, close bonnet and vail, with
emblazoned cross upon the breast, are the
main features close ly resembling, in
deed, the dress of the Catholic orders.
Although these sisters are not bound by
perpetual vows, the garb once adopted is
never laid aside. Most of the membeis
are women of education and refinement ;
their life is one of self-denial and indus
try, and their aim consists in bi ing con
tent with food and raiment and doing
whatever work is given them with thank
fulness of heart. Exchange.

Romance on Kettle River.
A young man named Henry Bretlandt,
nnrnrl 9-3 ,K,V,r tiarl l,non an amrewn unm,.
where along the line of the N. P., met at
St. rain, last summer, susic r. Hingic
freit, a girl of 15, a daughter of a German
settler living near Kettle river, and an in
timacy sprung up between them. They
corresponded lor a while, Dtit one oi Hen
ry's letters happening to fall into the
hands of Susie'3 brother, Wilhelm, there
was a big explosion on the part of her
lather aud mother, who in strong lan
guage denounced the cunning lover, and
informed her that the thing must be
stopped at once. And, as they thought, it
was.
A few months ago, however, Susie was
missed from the breakfast table, and on
searching her room it was ascertained
that she had not been in her bed, and that
her wardrobe had gone with her.
There was now real alarm in the family
and the brother was sent to look for the
lost girl. He wandered about for a num
ber of days without finding his missing
sister, nor was she heard from until a few
weeks ago, when a lumberman Informed
the family there was a young couple liv
inf in a newly-built log cabin on Kettle
river, some live or six miles above Its en
trance into the St. Croix. From this
lumberman's description of the pair the
family were satisfied It was Susie and her
lover, and the father and brother resolved
to pay them a visit. This they did the
next day, and were surprised to nnu tne
runaways livinir comfortably, but occu
pying separate rooms. The cabin, though
small, was divided into two apartments
and furnished comfortably.
On askimr why there were two rooms
Bretlandt said they were not wedded yet
and he had respected his Intended enough
to show her his designs were not those of
a villain, hut of a man. The reason the
wedded knot had not been tied was owing
to the circumstance that the minister who
was to marry them had failed t come to
their home as he had promised to do, and
Susie, being under age, was afraid to
leave the house to get married lest her
parents should capture and send her to
some Cincinnati relatives, which was
something she so much dreaded, and
which her mother had repeatedly threat
ened. Thus they were forced to live un
der one roof, but did so virtuously.
After some persuasion on the part of the
girl's brother, who instantly recognized
the ti ue gentleman In Bretlandt, the old
man cave his consent to the union of the
two lovers. It was then resolved that
the marriage should take place the follow
ing Sunday at Susie's home.
In conversing with the forgiven lover,
old Mr. Englefreit ascertained that Snsle,
after the discovery of their secret corres
pondence, had managed to get a letter to
her intended, who, having previously se
lected a. quarter section of land, went to
work and put up his cabin and furnished
it. When all was ready he went for Su
sie, and she being apprised that the min
ister to unite them was to be on hand at
their future home in the wilds, jumped
aboard a temporary sled Henry had pro
vided, and was drawn by him some eight
miles to their forest residence.
On arriving there, the minister not be
ing on hand, she wept bitterly and wanted
to go back, but Henry assuaged her grief
and proposed the separate room business.
to which she acceded.
The pair were duly married at the resi
dence of the girl's parents on the follow
ing Sunday, and now they as well as their
connexions are happy. St.Paul Press.

A Pittsburgh paper says that for the
past four months the prisoners confined
in the jail at Uniontown have contended
that that Institution was haunted : that
peculiar sounds have been heard every
night, after the lights had been extin
guished, and the prisoners were all locked
up in their cells. The inmates declare
that when the town clock strikes twelve a
ghost commences its nightly rounds
through the jail. First they will hear
something like a person walking over the
iron grating that extends over the entire
inside of the jail over the cells. The ghost
drags a chain over this grating, making a
peculiar noise. Then they will hear one
end of it drop on the pavement beneath.
and hear the ghost fasten the other end of
it to the iron bars above. When fastened
itdescends the chain, rattling it terrifically
after it gets down. It then walks around
the jail outside where the prisoners are
permitted to exercise themselves in the
daytime. The lloor of the jail is composed
entirely of Iron. The ghost drags a chain
over the lloor and rattles it furiously. Af
ter making seeming thorough inspection in
this manner, the ghost unlocks the door
and enters the inside of th grating that
surrounds the cells. First it goes up the
iron stairs to tho upper tier of cells, drag
einsr the chains after it. It sroes to every
cell that contains a prisoner, takes hold of
the bars and rattles the door furiously,
After making the ronnds ot the upper
cells it descends to the lower tier and goes
through the same actions, always drag
on being interrogated by the sheriff or his
deputies, declare that it is not imagina
tion, but that a ghost does really visit
them every night just after the town
clock strikes twelve. It stays just long
enough to go through the actions spoken
ot above ; tnen it goes to the chain sus
pended from the iron bars above the lloor
rattling It furiously, a-cends, draws the
chain up, walks over the bars, aud nothing
more is heard of it till twelve the next
night. The prisoners confined in their
cells have often spoken to it, but received
no answer to their questions. . Tills state
of affairs has created a great deal of cx
citement about the court-house. Sheriff
Messmore and his deputies have kept the
thing quiet for a long time, thinking that
it was a story gotten up by the prisoners
in order to have a light kept burning in
the jail all night. But burning a light in
the jail did not hava the effect to stop the
ghostly visits. It made its nightly visits
regularly, and although the prisoners
could not see any person who would pre'
sent themselves before their cell doors,
the ghost would come, rattling his chains
more furious than ever, go to the cell
doors and rattle them as though he would
tear them from their fastenings, and then
depart as usual. The tiling Is getting to
be quite a serious matter, but we have not
heard yet what action the sheriu win take
to get rid of this ghostly visitor. It is to
be regretted that the account omits to
state whether the ghost furnishes its own
chain or whether one belonging to the
county. It would be satisfactory to have
tnat question settled.
The German Heart-Breakers.
They do some things in Germany dif
ferent from our customs, and much better
than we do. A marriage engagement is,
with the Germans, a more serious thing
than it is with us. It carries with it the
force of a solemn compact, and some of
tne responsibilities ot a marriage contract
already performed. The engagement is
known to all the friends of the parties ; it
is published in the newspaper, and is re
garded as almost as irrevocable as mar
riage itself. In Cassel two armv officers
one of them a count and an adjutant, were
discussing the susceptibility of women,
and the count made a wager with the
other, that he, poor as he was, could win
the affections of any rich heiress the two
might agree upon, and become engaged
to marry her. They settled that the count
Bnouia lay siege to tne neart oi a very
pretty and very rich young girl, the daugh
ter of a widow whose former husband was
a noted gambler.
The suit succeeded, the engagement
was soon made and published. The count
was victorious and won the bet, it being
agorgeous wine supper. He then thought
the joke had gone about far enough, and
wrote the young lady that it would be
impossible for him to keep the engage
ment to marry her, because ber father was
a gambler. The affair made a great deal
01 public scandal, and the uerman enron
icler of these events states that the story
came to the ears of the Emperor. William,
who strongly disapproved of the whole
proceedings of ids army officers. The
supper was prepared, and the count and
his friends were about sitting down to
their viands and champagne, when an
order came for thn arrest of the two off!
cers, who had so disgraced their cloth and
manufactured scandal. They were not
permitted even to drink their wine, and
are now awaiting a trial by court-martial.
That's the way they treat these harmless
little jokes in Germany. Exchange.

slices of salt pork in a deep kettle. When
crisp take it out and put into the kettle,
first, a laver of sliced potatoes, then one

ing with a layer oi nsn until an is usea.
Pepper it well, add boiling water enough
to cover the whole, and boil half an hour.
Put In half a pint of milk and cook it live

The best for a chowder is naouocn.
Wash for Fruit Trees. The follow
ing is a wash used bv William Saunders,
of the government gardens, at Washing
ton : Put half a bushel of lime and four
Eounds of powdered sulphur in a tight
arrel, slaking the lima with hot water:
the mouth ol the barrel being covered
with a cloth. This is reduced to the con
sistency of ordinary whitewash, and at
the time of application half an ounce of
carbolic acid is added to each gallon of
liquid. Mr. Saunders says : " I gener
ally apply it In the spring, before the
leaves make their appearance, but I am
convinced it would be more effective it
applied later ; but then it is difficult to do
so when the tree is in foliage." Mr. Saun
ders applies the wash not only to the stem
ot the tree, but to some extent to tne
main branches. N. E. Homestead.
Oxions should be sown as earl'v In the
spring as the ground Is in condition to
worn, tnat is, so soon as tne sou is in a
thoroughly friable state. Five pounds ot
seed is the proper quantity to sow, al
though this is much more than can stan.l
to mature, but enough must be sown to
insure a stand in any event ; six to eight
pounds is sometimes sown. The large
Wethersfield red are the most hardy, but
we should unhesitatingly recommend
Danver's yellow as the best for market.
It is of fine quality, is hardy, produces
well, keeps well and always commands a
better price than the red onion. Tho
proper soil is a rich friable loam. The
richer the better, although they may be.

Oatmeal Pouripge. This is so much
in demand, that it has been introduced
into the bills of faro of the best restau
rants, though few serve it well cooked,
that is, boiled long enough. To insure
this, se a brown pipkin, instead of a tin
saucepan : have it two-thirds full of boil
ing water, into which put half a teasoooiv
ful of salt. Into this drop the oatmeal
with one hand, stirring with a wooden
spatula held by the other. When It is the
thickness of mush, cover it and set it
where It will keep boiling slowly for an
hour, beating it up occasionally to keep it
wen mixed, and tree from lumps, uish
and eat it hot. with cold milk or cream
Butter and sugar melted upon it destroy
its fine diuretic qualities, and make it
really less palatable. Porridge, gruel,
thin cakes and a sort of crackers, are the
principal methods of using oatmeal. As
a breakfast dish, the porridge made in the
way described above has no superior. It
stimulates the action of the liver, and, In
conjunction with cranberries, eaten witli
a sauce, will restore a torpid liver to
healthful activity, if employed for the
morning meal, to the exclusion of fried
meats and potatoes, broiled ham, and the
line.
Commendatory.
While we would not curtail any of the
privileges of the fair sex, and least of all
those connected with their personal adorn
ment, we can but commend the action of a
theatrical manager in one of our Western
cities, who has established a rule that la
dies who wish to secure front seats must
agree to appear without, their steeple
coiffures. A similar regulation is much
needed in all of our places of amusement,
It needs no argument to prove that the
purchaser of one seat in a theater has no
right, legal or moral, to destroy the value
01 several seats behind by putting an un
necessary obstruction between them and
tne stage ; out tnis is lust wnat women
do when they appear with the present
taslilonatjle abominations on tneir neaas
As it is impossible to see over them, and
uncomfortable to keep one's neck on the
stretch to see around tnem, tne unfortun
ate possessor of a seat behind a lady thus
elongated has his evening's entertain
ment spoiled, and his temper soured. In
front sits his thoughtless tormentor, en
joying the play, wholly unconscious or
careless of the fact that she is the private
ly anathematized cause of so much dis
comfort to her neighbors. An lndlgmmt
audierce would rise against a man thus
offending, but the natural gallantry of the
sterner sex obliges it to suffer in silence
when a lady trespasses on a right. Ap-
pleton's Journal.
Pain Killer. In another column will be
found the advertisement ol Davis' 1'ain Kil
ler. There is probably no other preparation
mnniifnpturfid that has become so much of a
household word as the Pain Killer. For
thirty vears it has stood before the public,
and the innumerable testimonials that have
been called forth voluntarily, testify fully to
its merits. When you neea a lamliy medi
cine buy the Pain Killer.
