' ' AFKARFUIi NIGHT. I was invited to a luncli party in one of the inland cities of rennsyl Vania not long ago, and was much impressed by the appearance of one of tee younger ladies present. She was not beautiful, but united the striking characteristics of a brilliant, fresh complexion, and a profusion of hair, white as snow, which was wound on the top of her head after the fashion of Madrozo'suMarquise," belonging to Mrs. A. -1. Stewart. She was very merry, a good talker, and. I must conless, I contrived to accupy the larger part of her atteo tion with the tendency toward ino- nouolizing the best which the mo ment affords that I am told is often observed bv my familiars. ; After bidding adieu to the ladies, . . AT . w . vi eia I turned to the obliging friend who had been my sponger at these inci- JnettAl MAtiUiAs f tnonnllw ak r my new acquaintance By Jove wliat hair ! ' It accents her whole apuearance.

I doubt, : however, u she wouldn't say to-day that the price was rather large! And it was a Dret- y big price.' Do you. like stones ? I'm minded to tell one, if you ' like, about the white hair you admire so much." We", went over to the hotel and something like this my friend told ine : "You have no idea, you city peo ple, the interest we country , people take in - the. courtships , of, young folks, f rom the time Harry Wells began to sadle up to Mamie Clausen at church socials until their mar riage in the First- Presbyterian church the entire community gave minute consideration to their af fairs. Mamie's father, John Clausen, was and is now a prominent com- mif eion merchant, generally consid ered wealthy, and has always lived at least like a man of means. Ma mie was pretty and dashing, a local belle and a great' favorite. Harrv's people lived a few miles from town, and they, too, were people of reputa tion in the county. Old J ack w ells represented us a few times in the Legislature and Has accumulated in lone way and another a handsome property. . . TL.. o The marriage was in everv way a suitable one. Harry was educat ed at Princeton, and although ; he had at one time the reputation of being wild, he has sobered down, and was at anv rate such a frank. manly - young ; fellow that' he was ...hamIIi. V(MM, itldlMtlAM ECUCiailT 1U1 LI OUT UWUCMUU As 1 say, the marriage was the oc casion of general rejoicing. Mamie's father gave her an unusually good send otf, and the details were sent far - and wide through the State. Harry had studied law, although he didn t have much natural inclina tion for it, the old man thinking his political experience might serve Harry in that way, and had settled down into a country notary, drawing up deeds and doing up hack-work of that sort. They lived about four miles out of town, and two miles from old Jack's. He had built them a pretty modern cottage on a detach ed: portion of his farm. Harry had his office, an ornamental little struc ture, a few rods from the bouse, and there they lived -as happy as two birds. . 7 , . ! Gradually Harrv nicked un busi. ness, and finally through his father he became trustee for the minor heirs. ; They were an odd lot of chil dren, with a half-crazy mother and no end to coal mines and mining investments. It was a good thing foT Harry, although- it gave a natu rally lazy man some additional work. The worst thing was that it obliged him to go to Scran ton now and then and leave Mamie. You may imag ine that there was a rood deal of vis iting at the house of twwiuch dot ular young people,' and that four- mile stretch ot roaa was generally kept pretty warm. When Harry had to go away Mamie would get in her nbavetda and "driVrT to town, and there was always tome of the yonng people to go out and keep her com pany. Harry always insisted that she mustn't stay alone, ror a law- abiding State we have a pretty rougn elememt in it. and. ' although we havent had much to complain of here, there is a general sense of un easiness. - '" One August afternoon Harry had an unexpected summons w row Scran ton about a suit connected with the minor heirs. He had recently , 1 Al - ' 1 V J BOia some oi weir proper mu uau EST ABLTRTTiin, 1037.

Mamie was making preparation for a picnic they were to go to the text day. and begged nun to wait until the day after. ' , "But, any dear child, I havent time even to go to town and put these in the bank, o you II nave to take rare of them. Iu try and ret back in two days at the farthest, meanwhile nobody will know that the monev is hereJ ' Then he explained to her thi value of. the papers and handed her a canvass bag, in which was the fi.500 belonging to the minor heirs. '.Vhere will I keen it, Harry? lietween the maltreeseer" . "Just like a woman! : No. But declare I dont know where to tell you. The most insecure place ap parent! v . is olten the most secure. Any place, dear, but between, the mattresses. I leave that .to you. But you must guard it if necessary. with your life, for remember the money is not ours, and at all haz zards I am responsible..1 I don't reallv suppose there is the least dan ger, for no one knows I have it.

She drove into town and one of her old friends went out with her. At the end of two days she had anoth er telegram, saying he had been de tained until the .next day. iier friend went home, and in place of Harry came a third telegram, and so every day lor ten days he was ex pected home, and every day came a disappointing : telegram. By this time she had. become accustomed to her charge, which she had set like a bag of seed . beans in a corner of a dark closet opening from her room. Ihe . afternoon of the tenth day was a hot, rnurkey afternoon. Ma mie had crone uo stairs to take a nao and refresh . before dressing to meet Harry, who was expected borne af ter the longest absence he had ever made from her. 1 i :. .. .i After a time Sarah came up and told ner there was a tramp down gtairs who wanted something to eat, and who would not be driven off. : You oughtn't to leave him a mi nute alone,' Sarah. ; Go down and watch ' him, and I. will come down and send him off. ' She dressed "herself quickly and went down stairs, Surprised to find how late it had grown.'.. When she reached the kitchen she' found also messenger with another telegram which' announced ' another disap pointment,' but the next day, with out fail, Harry, wrote, he would be home.' As Mamie' turned into the kitchen she heard the tramp and Sarah in evident dispute. -" '. V res " said the fellow, when that time comes your mistress win have another ironing table, helping you, instead of wearing - her Sunday clothes every day." .-, . ; r An' spouin' everything lor me to do over. I think I see her. I've work enough to do." answered hon est Sarah, not indisposed to have a chat over her work. . f Mamie found a traceless-looking fellow, unshaven and ill-dressed who, with a certain gentlemanly in stinct, rose up as she' came in. . v 1, suppose my girl told you we had nothing for you, and that it will be a great kindness if you will leave as soon ts possible.". Yes, she did just that, madame, but I took it upon myself to belit ve it wasnt so urgent. The truth U, 'm very hungry and dead tired, and didn't believe but that you would give me something to eat; at , least ve waited to ask vou in person. 7 .Women are soft-hearted creatures. Mamie went and got him something to eat, her9elf...The darkness that had been , increasing for : some time came down rapidly and there burst one of those terriflic thunder-storms that gather so suddenly : and with such force in . this country. After its strength was spent and I re member that it was the most violent of the season there, fell steady sheets of rain that brought .Rock Creek over the bridges before morn ing. .:; ; . i ''f, -, -v-1 . .'Madam, it's no use in talking.

The ' mistress and maid went to bed and, although 'worried and anxious, finally went to sleep.

Oat SpasaU CtotTsspaadaBl. . Washinotos, March 29, 18S2. Since General. Grant's appearance in Washington, rumors about cam net changes have filled the air. He may have nothing to do with the proposed changes, but every body seems to think that he has.: ; It was thought,. that the father-in-law General Grant's son, ex-Senator Chaffee, would be made Secretary of the Interior, but ft seems that sena tor Teller, of Colorado, is tohave the place. - If the Indians read the pa pers, they are now trembling in their boots, u they have any boots, with the announcement that Teller will be over too head of : the Indian' Bu reau. : He has no . sentimental ; ten derness for these unlovely wards Of the nation. If the truth were known he believes with '. General Sheridan that the best Indian is a dead " Indi an, and that they have no more right to the splendid wester domain than the panther an cay otes while they help to make it a howling wilder ness. We see too much ef the indt an here at Washington. There nearly always a ' delegation: from some tribe here ostensibly for the purpose of havinga talk with - their "ureat rather,' rresident.4 Arthur. Their talks amount to nothing, and are good for nothing; and it is strange that the : President does, not stop such: empty humbuggery. These talks are gotten up by , the Indian agents who become tired of the dull ness and notbing-to-do-ness of fron tier post life, and, desirous of having a picnic, they bring half-a-dozen filthy chiefs to Washington to talk over some imaginary grievance which if it were a real grievance could be much . better adjusted on the ground, at that end of the line. To return from the frontier to the cabinet it is rumored that Genera! Beale, who was Minister to .Austria under Grant's first term, .will be made Secretary of the Navy in place of Judge Hunt Wm. E. Chandler is also talked of for the place, and it is quite probable that one of them will .get it? Judge; Hunt, can well retire.. on, his .assets.; .During.; his brief mcumbency, he has given - his sbhs 'permanent and lucrative places m-the U.S. avy. -u -.; i, :.,;. A. bill, prohibiting the immigra tion of Chinese has- been passed by a large majority, and the . President it is said will not veto it Maybe he will though; there are just ; now ' in fluences in and around the.-White House that are friendly to the heath en Chinee. r- It is said that the pict- uresqe Lliinese embassador with, his large and picturesque suit will leave immediately for epain, taking with turn- tro trade and the good will ot the bulled:, and flowery kingdom. The embassador and his suit in their gorgeous silk drapery are no more like the Chinamen' of the Pacific coast than Oscar Wilde and Dr. Ma ry Walker are like men. v. If the' em- bassodor carries out . his., threat to leave, Connecticut Avenue will lose one of its chief Sunday afternoon attractions You know that this avenue" is - the Sunday afternoon promenade of fashionable Washing ton, and. when the weather is fine not even the Boulevard des Italiens at 12 midnight presents a", gayer, more vivacious, or vainer spectacle. The Chinese legation do not mingle with' -'the promenaders; but. ..they stand on a low balcony fronting the avenue, and, arrayed in the .bright- colored, loo8e-floowing silks of their country, evidently enjoy being gazed at by the throng of promenaders. it Surprise!

When a horse, cow, Bheep or hog dies the question arises as to where they shall be placed The location being- selected, it is there left as a prey to carrion birds, dogs and in sects. Sometimes the hide is taken off and the remainder of the carcass is thrown away. It is a serious mis take to waste the carcasses in such a manner, as the flesh is nch for fer tilizing matter of the most valuable kind, and the bones are useful also. There are several . methods of dis posing of them without trouble, the quickest being the immediate de composing of the animal in the ma nure heap, which is simply chopping it up in pieces and placing the pieces in the centre of the compost Or, if preferred, the carcass can be taken to some selected point and covered with a thick . covering of earth, there to remain until it de cays, in which case the earth absorbs the gasses to a great degree, and the carcass is thus disposed of. It-should be protected against dogs by a cov ering of rails or boards, to prevent the earth being scratched away from it : In the course of time the bones can be ground or pulverized at lei sure and dissolved with sulphuric acid ; which renders them available for plant food at ' once. Dead an imals are somtimeS more valuable than when living. The French buy dilapidated horses, kill them and use them for fertilizing purposes. Ihe Unglish are very careful to use every portion ot them en- trals, meat and bones. The Dutch' have large pota-filled with boiling water and lye, into which they throw flesh and bones, letting it boil for a few hours and afterwards pour, when cooled, into barrels. In a few weeks they find the bones partly dissolved. .The liquid is poured over the manure, the undis solved bones first pounded and mix ed ' with manure. This is a good method of preparation, but the mass should be composed with earth, as the lye is detrimental to the manure heap on account of its propensity to liberate nitrogen. ' The matter of of the disposal of carcasses is not a difficult one, as any farmer can easily summon sufficient ingenuity for his purpose, but the ' fault ; is that the farmer does not preserve them for use at all, thus depriving himself of valuable enriching matter. A dead horse or cow is worth a ton of the best farmyard manure, aud probably more valuable than two or three tons of unprotected manure. Phiia deiphia Record.

Exejator aad Trustee of Msry Oeadle, aee'd. : the n Urn OMd The other day a curiota old wom an, having a bundle in her hand nd walking with a painful eCTort, sat down on a step to rest. She was cu rious because her garment? were neat and clean, thongh threadbare, and curious because a smile crossed her wrinkled face as children passed her. It might have been this smile that attracted a group of three little ones, the oldest about nine. They all stood in a row in front of the old woman, saying never a word, but watching her face. The smile brigt ened, lingered, and then faded a way, and a corner of the old calico apron went up to wipe away a tear. Then the eldest child stepped for ward and asked : - "Are you : sorry .because you havent got any children?" ; "I I had children once, but they are all dead P whisper ed the woman, a sob in her throat "I'm awfully sorry" said the little girl, as her own chin quivered. "I'd giye you one of my little brothers here, but you see I havent got but two, and I dont believe I'd like to spare one." "God bless you, child bless you forever!" sobbed the old woman, and for a full minute htr lace was buried in her apron. But III tell you what IH do," seriously - continued the child. "You may kiss us all once, and if little Ben isnt afraid you may him four times, for he's just as sweet as candy. . ' Pedestrians who saw the three well dressed children put their arms around that old woman's neck and kiss her werejgreatly puzzled. They didnt hear the woman's words as she rose to go. "O ! children, I'm only a poor old woman, believing I'd nothing to live for, but you've give me a light er heart than I've had for ten years." - - Wolvea in Church. While tlit inhabitants of the Span ish village Unarre were attending " the celebration of the midnight mass in their parish church on Christmas eve 'ast, a terrible surprise was await ing them outside the sacred edifice. During the service a pack of hungry wolves had gathered around the church doors, and when these were thrown open to let the congregation out the ferocious brutes, stimulated by famine to an unusual display of audacity, made a desperate on slaught upon the crowd. According to an eye witness an indescribable panic ensued. Men and women alike, screaming for aid, strove to escape from their savage assailants; several, while struggling frantically to reach the doorway, fell down and found themselves at the mercy of the famished wolves. The only man who displayed any presence of mind was the sacristan, who contrived to clamber into the pulpit, and thence imitated the bark of a dog so effect ively that the invaders took fright and fled, but not before they had killed three of their victims and man gled five others so horribly that they were not expected to recover at the time when this tragical affair 1 , , , - l , c, - , was purjiisneu in me opanisa papers. Measures have been taken some what late in the day, as is generally the case in the peninsula by the lo cal authorities for the extirpation throughout the district at present in fested by those cunning and san guine carnivore. Rest for the Weary. What a strange thought ! All the world is seeking rest Those who drag their weary bodies home night after night and fall down on their restless beds worried with the anxie ties and cares of business, and yet seeking rest It is found in pover ty ; perhaps it lurks under the rich man, all the while that he lies groan ing upon his couch or stands with wrinkled brow perplexed with care. Where is rest? What is rest? It is the divine principle of peace that comes from God. As well seek roses on the pallid cheek of death as rest out of . God. The needle rests not till it turns to the pole. If a little child is frightened at play, he comes running into the house af ter his mother. She takes him into her bosom, presses kisses upon his brow, and while she sings some lul aby of love, all fear fades from his face and he sleeps in peace. God wants to fill a mother's place to all the world. If it he misfortune or poverty, or gloomy foreboding that makes one unhappy, God can give him rest and breathe a lullaby of love about his tempest tossed soul will still its ringing. Rest peace, is a principle that lies within us, not without Some not possessing it, have a crowned head uneasy. O, that every anxious, longing heart would look to him who walketh among tne golden lamps of heaven. "Take my yoke upon you, and ye shall find rest unto vour souls."
