An Indian Girl'a Ivcwuanor.
She was a California Indian, prob
ably of the Tulares; she migrated to
Oregon with her family thirty years
ago. She was then a young girl, and
said to be the handsomest squaw
ever Been in Oregon. In those days
white men in wildernesses thought
it Rinall &hame. if anv, to take Indi
an women to live with them as
wives, and Lucy was much sought
and woed. But she seems to have
had uncommon virtue or coldness,
for she resisted all such approaches
for a long time.
Finally a man named Pomeroy
appeared, and, as Lucy said after
ward, as t-oon as she looked at him
she knew he was her "tumtum man,"
and she must go with him. He bad
& small fcloop, and Lucy became its
mate. They two alone ran it for
several years up and down the river.
He established a little trading post,
and Lucy always took charge of that
when he went to buy goods. When
g.ld was discovered at Ringgold bar,
Lucy went there, worked with a
rocker like a roan and washed out
hunr.reds of dollars' worth of gold,
all of which she gave to Pomeroy.
With it he built a line schooner and
enlarged his business, the faithful
Lucv working always at his side and
bidding. At last, after eight or ten
years, he grew weary of her and of
the country, and made up his mind
to go to California. But he had not
the heart to tell Lucy he meant to
leave her. The pilot who told me
this story was at that time captain of
a schooner on the river. Pomeroy
came to him one day and asked him
tn move Luev and tell her she must
?to and live wil l tier reiauyes wmie i
. .. . , lm-
tie went to iaiiiornia una louKt-u
about and then he would bend for
her.
The poor creature, who had no
idea of treachery, came on hoard
cheerfully and willingly, and he set
her oft" at Columbus. This was in
the early spring. Week after week,
month after month, whenever his
schooner stopped there, Lucy was on
the shore asking if he had heard
from I'omeroy. Winter came on.
She had got a few boards together
and built herself a sort of hut near
a house where lived an eccentric old
batchelor, who finally took compas
sion on her, and, to save her from
freezing, let her come into his shan
ty to sleep. He was a mysterious
old man, a recluse, with a morbid
aversion to women, and at the outr
set it was a great struggle for him to
let even an Indian woman cross his
Threshold. But little by little Lucy
won her way; first she washed the
dishes, then she would timidly help
at the cooking. Faithful, patient,
unpresuming, at last she grew to be
the old man's housekeeper as well as
servant He lost his health and be
came biind. Lucy took care of him
till he died, and followed him to the
grave, his only mourner, the only
human being in the country with
whom he had any tie. He left her
bis little house and a few hundred
dollars all he had and there she
is still, alone, making out to live by
doing whatever work she can find in
her neighborhood. Everybody re
sjtects her. She is known as "Lucy'
up and down the river. "I did my
lest to hire her to come and keep
house for my wife," said the pilot.
"I'd rather have her for a nurse or
cook than any white woman in Or--gon.
But she wouldn't come. I
don't know as she's done looking for
Pomeroy to come back yet, and she's
going to stay just where he left her.
tShe never misses a time waving to
me when she knows what boat I'm
on, and there isn't much going on on
the river that she doesn't know."

The Chronic Caller.
The impatience of the young lady
oyer the long and fruitless visits of
the chronic caller was pictured in
comic colors some years ago by a
funny writer. It seems that it was
midnight. The young ' man had
fareweiled himself out and Emeline
had locked the door and was unty
ing her shoes when hr mother came
down stairs with a bed quilt around
her and said:
"Wanted to creep up stairs with
out my hearing you, eh? Didnt
think it was an hour after midnight
didvou?"
The girl made no reply, and the
mother continued:
"Did he propose this time?"
"Why, mother!" exclaimed the
daughter. ,
"You can 'why mother1 all you.
want to, but don't I know that he
has been coming here tor the last
year? Pont I know that you've
burned up at least four tens of coal
courting around here?"
The girl got her shoes off, and the
mother stood at the stair door and
asked:
"Emeline, have you got "am grit?"
"I gurss so."
"I gucsyou haven't I just wish
that tellow with false teeth and a
mole on his chin would Mine spark
ing me. I)o vu know what would
happen, Emeiine?"
"No."
"WelL, 111 tell you. He'd come
to time in sixty days or he'd get out
of this mansion like a goat jumping
for sunflower seeds."
And Emeline went to bed hug
ging this thought to her bosom.
Occasionally such visits become so
burdensome that the young lady
talks to the young man herseiL
At
least they had such a young girl out J
in Colorado. . She had been receiv
ing the attentions of a young man
for about a year, but becoming im
patient at his failure to bring mat
ters to a crisis, she resolved to ascer
tain his intentions. When he next
called she took him gently by the
ear, led him to a seat, and said: "
"Nobby, you've been foolin' 'round
this claim for mighty near a year,
an' hev never yit shot off your mouth
on the marrying biz. I've cottoned
to you on the square clear through,
an' hev stood off every other galoot
that has tried to chip in; an' now I
want you to come down to business
or leave the ranch. Ef you're on
tlte marry, end want a pard that'll
stick rite to ye till ye pass in your

We cannot cure baldness, as a bald
head .is bevond help, but if those
who have hair and desire to retain
it will follow our advice they need
never 6how a clearing on the top of
,h.ir had. The cause of baldness
is the habit men have ol pulling
their shirts and night shirts off" over
their heads. There are some wno
will laugh at this idea, but it is not
intended that they should, as this is
not a lunny article. ThU is busi
ness. The pulling of a shirt cr night
shirt off over the head causes fric
tion on the scalp, which in time
sears the roots of the hair and
leaves a barren plain, a Sahara, for
ever after. Suppose the night shirt
comes to a man's feet, there is from
five to six feet of tail to be drawn
over the tender hair, which, kept up
for a series of years, would wear out
any head of hair. Add to this the
friction from taking off the shirt,
and then the natural scrating of the
head for ideas, etc., and the hair has
no rest, and the wonder is that there
is a man left who has a spear of hair
in his head. How the preventive is
lor men to walk out of their night
shirts the front way. Women are
never bald, and som sneering men
account for the fact by claiming that
women do not have brains enough to
become bald. This is a campaign
lie. Women have more brain and a
better quality than any bald he ided
man on earth. But they do not wear
! their hair off by pulling their gar
ments over their head. 1 hey open
the storm door of their garments,
and walk out into the light of day
aU(j MnT disturb
a hair. This we
state upon information and belief,
and if we are wrong we can easily
be corrected. It is alleged that they
get out of their dry goods different
from men, and thereby make a great
saving in hair. Taking all the facts
there is only one sensible way for
men who desire to retain their hair,
and that is to break off the destruc
tive habit of pulling their garments
off over their heads. They may
have to be instructed in the test
tnunner of getting out of a night
shirt without using his head lor a
pivot, fcut that can be arranged. Let
societies be formed, classes, if you
please, and secure a teacher to illus
trate how to take off a night shirt
the front way. If our discovery is
acted upon, bald headed men will
be unknown in the next generation.
Daring Fecape.
A wonderfully daring escape was
made last week by a prisoner from
Millbank Prison. Theconvict, Ixv
ett by name, contrived to make a
hole through his cell by picking
away the mortar. This must have
been the work of several weeks, if
not months, and to conceal the signs
of his work chewed bread was used
to replace the mortar until he was
ready to make the attempt at escape.
While at work in the yard upon one
occasion he picked up and secreted
a piece of Hack old rope, and this
he remade and lengthened, adding
to it strips torn from his clothes.
All being ready for the attempt, he
blackened his face with soot he had
procured from the workshop chim
ney, the idea being to make himself
a chimney sweep, the soot, mixea
wilh water, was also used to rub into
his prison garments, which being
plentifully besprinkled with broad
arrows, would otherwise have looked
too conspicuous In lowering him
self to the ground ' the convict fell a
distance of thirty feet, through his
rope breaking, and cut his hand se
verely; but this circumstance mate
rially assisted his escape, as he re
tained part of the rope in his pos
session and finding in the yard two
pieces of plank, lashed them togeth
er, placed them against the wall and
climbed up, then drawing his plank
after him he laid them on the other
side and slid down. So effectual
was his disguise that he actually
passed a number of police without
exciting any " remark. He was at
liberty a week, and but for the ef
forts of his friends in "passing
around the hat" to raise a subscrip
tion to enable him to leave the coun
try, he might still have been at large.

To Tlie Point.
There is a story of a single chap
ter which we lind in an exchange
that plainly illustrates each one's re
sponsibility in the temperance
cause.
A wealthy man in St Louis was
asked to aid in a series of temper
ance meetings, but he scornfully re
fused. After being further pressed,
he said:
"(ientleiiipn, it is not my busi
ness." -
A few days after his wife and two
daughters were coming home in the
lightning express. In his grand
carriage, with two liveried attend
ants, he rode to the dejwt, thinking
of his splendid business and plan
ning for the morrow. Hark ! Did
some one say "accident?" There are
many railroads centering in St
Louis. If there has been an accident
it is not likely it happened on the
and Mississippi railroad. Vet
it troubled him. "It is his business
now." The horses are stopped on
the instant, and upon inquiry he
&flds that it occurred twenty fi ve
tailee distant, on the and Mis-
iippi. He telegraphs to the su
perintendent :
"I will give you five hundred dol
lars for an extra engine."
The answer Jtashued back :
"No."
"I will give yon one thousand dol
lars for an engine."
"A train with surgeons and nurses
has already gone forward, and we
have no other."
With white face and anxious brow
tike man paced the station to and
fro. "It is his business now." In
half an hour, perhaps, which seemed
to him half a century, the train ar
rived. He hurried toward it, and in
the tender found tlie mangled and
lifeless remains of hi wife and one
of his daughters. In the car follow
ing lay the other daughter, with her
dainty ribs crushed in and her prec
ious life oozing slowly away.
A quart of whisky, which was
drank fifty miles away by a railroad
employe, was the cause of the catas
trophe. Who dare say of the tremendous
question, '.'it is not my business 1"
My daughter and myself, great
sufferers from Catarrh, have been
cured by Elys' Cream Balm. My
sense of smell restored and health
greatly improved. , C M. Staxlky,

Ti-kib. January (.-r-To-dav the re-

Home" left the shores ot Tun's on
board a French steamer, to be car
ried to Marseilles, whence they are
to be forwarded to America. Yester
day, at 10 o'clock a. m., I went to
the not unattractive Lud decidedly
neat Protestant Cemetery of 5?L
George, situated on high, well sur
rouuded ground within the city. 1
wad agreeably disappointed in the
appearauce of this God's Acre, as I
hud read in American newspapers
that Payne's grave was a neglected
one, in a neglected burial ground.
On the contrary, the grounds were
planted with nounsning and lra
graut rose bushes, splendid clumps
oi heliotropes, and hedges of brilliant
carnation pinks and geraniums,
while the walks were cleau and very
smooth, and the stones and monu
ments snowy white in the morning
sun. I suould think the inclosure
contained about an acre, and almost
in the centre of it was the grave of
Payne. At the head ol the grave was
standing a large and beautiful pep
per tree, braucnea of which bent leu
Uerly and droopingly over the tomb.
This, the finest and noblest tree in
the place, was planted by one of
Payne's truest aud best Iriends in
Turns M. Chappellie who was
preeeut at the dutu aud interment
of ihe Poet. From M. Chappellie
aud also Mr. Keade, the Jirilioti
Consul, under whose directions the
disinterment took place, 1 learned
UiUcn ot Paynes laul uas and sick
ness. The narrative oi Ihein is a
painful one. Let it suliice if 1 writ
what 1 heard touchiugiy and heart
ily said by the two or three gentle
men present at the exhumation who
had familiarly known . Pay ue, that
his character through disapiioint
ments, fancied loneliness and long
brooding, had become of a Bad, soli
and delicate melancholy that was,
while gentle and pitiful at the same
time most winning and beautiful.
His illness was a long and painful
one, but he had most faithful and
loving friends in M. Chappellie, M.
Pisani, Mr. Keade, Mme. Chappellie
(an American born lady with an
American.heart,) and a certain now
old Arab dragoman whose attach
ment to the Poet was deep and sin
cere. I saw this honest man at the
exhumation wearing his Arab cos
tume, believing in the Mahometan
religion, but full of Christ-like hu
manity. The Europeans present at
the grave on this sunny Friday
morning were about a dozen in num
ber, several Arab gentlemen being
also on the ground in their rich and
pii turesqiie dress and turbans. .
The coHin was reached by the
workmen at about twelve o'clock,
and was carefully lifted and placed
on the broad marble slab which for
thirty years had covered it, and
which bears the following inscrip
tion: "E PLURIBUS UNUM."
(Shield and eagle.)
"In memory of Col. John Howard
Payne, twice Consul ot the United
States of America for the city and
kingdom of Tunis, this stone here is
placed by a grateful country. He
died at the American Consulate in
this city after a tedious illness, April
lst,18o2. He was born at the city
of Boston, State of Massachusetts,
June 8th, 1792. His fame as a Poet
and Dramatist is well known wher
ever the English language is spoken,
through his celebrated Pallad of
'Home. Sweet Home,' and his popu
lar tragedy of 'Brutus' and other
similar productions."
On the four edges of this slab is
also carved :
"Sure, wtien thy gentle spirit Bed
To realm! beyond tlie azure dome.
With ana outstreUhed, Qod's Ant el aald,
' Welcome to Hearea'i Home, Sweet Home. "
The coffin was badly rotted in
spite of the care taken by the United
States' Consul Fish, . who several
months ago incased it in cement for
its better preservation. A IitUe,
thread-like root f the pepper tree
had made its way into the grave and
coffin, and was just about to pass
across the forehead. Some of
our mother earth had got inte the
coffin and mingled with the bones.
The whole skeleton ' was obtained
and laid reverently in a new coffin,
which ws covered with lead, solder
ed and sealed. This was then placed
in a neat, native, hard-wood coffin,
which was secured by locks and
keys, all then being put in the
strong, iron bound outside box,
which bore the address :
"To U. S. Consul Taylor, Mar
seilles, France." ' '
At thr.-e o'clock in tlie afternoon
the body way taken to the small and
simple Protestant church and placed
near the Dretlv little chancel win
dow on which "are inscril! these
words:.?; it rv -
. . . "To the memory of
John Howard Payne.
Author of 'Home, Sweet Home.' "
This window was made in Eng
land and placed here by a few English-speaking
residents of Tunis,
whose admiration and respect for
Payne were decided and sincere. In
deed, I found among the Poet's
friends an affectionate regard that
was akin to enthusiasm. They
grieved to lose the sacred bones that
had lain here for thirt3 long years
the object of their loving and cease
less care. H ben the colnn was car
ried into tlie church an English gen
tleman at the little American-made
organ plated the air and a sweet
voiced American lady sang the im
mortal song of the dead Poet; and
as the tender words tremulously
floated through and filled the holy
place, hearts swelled, eyes were sul
fused, and "A charm from the skies
seemed to hallow us there."
Tongue icannot tell nor pen de
scribe the effect of that 0rig sung
under tne circumstances i nave sta
ted. - The gloaming of the coming
evening had crent into the Chanel
and the "dim religious light" that
Payne's poetic temperament could
have understood and absorbed, bath
ed all, both living and dead, in its
mellow radiance. Ihe twilight came
oa apace and we ten the poor re
mains to lie there until the morrow,
guarded by. the faithful dragoman
who in life, as in dean, was staunch
and faithful to the last
To-day the body was taken to the
Marina and put aboard a boat and
rowed down the bay tnd oat into the
open, where it was received on
the French steamer, which soon af
ter was en route to Marseilles. Thus
John Howard Payne left Tunis to be
re-buried in the land he loved, to
sleep henceforth under the flag he
served so well, not again, it is to be
hoped, to be disturbed, bat to lie
dreamless and tranquil in the soil of
his own ilome, bweet Home. Vis
iting the cemetery to-day, I found
the marble slab replaced over the
now empty tomb, the debris refnov

a tneallv an nmaihl. . Mr. TtaA
I wnose admirable maiuemeat Of the
exhumation and compliance with
every wish and instruction of the
United States Government in the
matter cannot be too highly recom

put back the slab with its inscrip
tion, adding thereto the fact and
date of the removal of the body to
the United States, and shall then re
ligiously preserve and keep pure and
clear the marble that we marked
his grave with more than a quarter
of a century ago ; but deeper, clearer
than carved epitaph, we shall cher

our heart of hearts."
Groaning and Worrying-.
A not very poetical person, desir
ing to leave behind him something
which would serve either as an in
scription for his tombstone or a con
densed history of his experience
while an invalid, wrote something
on this wise:' .
. "Pain was my portion; physic was
mj food; groans were my devotion ;
drugs did me no good."
To the cheerful soul who will in
the light of this composition study
the mental make up of the sufferer
who indited it, it is easy to see why
"drugs did him no good." Pain is
discouraging; physic is indigestible;
but a devotional diet of groans is as
unsatisfactory spiritual refreshment
as can be devised. The state into
which a man can by this process
worrv himself is one not to be aim
ed atby any reasonable human being.
And possibly those who give up to a
habit of groaning and complaining
are a little wrong minded. Unhap
pily, there are many people whose
experience takes this turn. They
are not al way sinvalids, but are often
those who are blessed with a fair
share of health and other good things
and might be happy if they would.
The habit of groaning and lament
ihg is an evii one. It lightens no
burden, cheers no sorrow, helps no
task. It shutsout the sunshine. and
deepens the gloom. It chills thank
fulness, and promotes a spirit of sour
asperity. It ruins the disposition of
children who come within its iuflu
ence. It makes those who indulge
in it blind to everything that pro
duces happines, and keenly alive to
all that promotes misery. By long
experience in complaining and be
wailing, people can reach u depth of
woe they never contemplated when
they first set out To meet such
people, is to comeunder an unpleas
ant influence. No matter how
bright the day, or how cheery the
circumstances to those who have
heart and eye for the bright and de
lightful, those groaners are always
plaintively finding something which
is not exactly the way they would
have it, and which they fear will be
worse to-morrow than it is to-day.
Every mortal has his burdens and
discomforts. By picking the burden
up fifty times a day and weighing it
it becomes no lighter, but rather
produces an increased sense of heav
iness. By worrying over the dis
comforts they become none the
more comfortable, but are harder to
endure, and give cause for more and
more worry and complaint To ig
nore them may be impossible. We
are not called upon to do that But
by turning the sunlight on them
and greeting them with the merriest
laugh we can raise we can lighten
them, and melt them as cakes of ice
are melted in the noonday sun, so
that when we look for them we find
they are gone and wonder who has
carried them away. Blessed be the
sunshine that comes with its bene
diction to the weary and lightens the
burden of the heavv heart.
What Wild Beasts Cast.
The most expensive animal in New
York imported of wild beast deals
in is the hippopotamus. A good
hippopotamus is worth (to a man
who wants , him) from $10,000 to
$12,000. They must be captured
when they are young and raised on
goat's milk. A caravan of hunters
returning across the desert with
captured animals is a strange sight
About 1,000 goats are brought with
the caravan to furnish milk for the
antelopes, hippopotami aud other
milk-drinkers. As the goats cease
giving milk they are killed and fed
to the flesh-eaters. The animals are
carried in bamboo cages, rigged with
ropes and slung across the backs of
the camels. From the coast they
are shipped to Hamburg, where they
are received by a member of the firm
and thence distributed according to
demand. Elephants are captured
when younz, and usually by driving
them into immense traps that con
verge rapidly until the beasts are !
cnooeu into reacn oi tne ropes, a
fine elephant will bring from $1,0(10
to $.r,000. Of course, the prices of
animals vary with the demand.
You must get a man that wants a
least before you can get any price
for him then the price depends on
how much he wants him. "You
Bee," said the man of beasts to a re
porter, "you wouldn't give $10 for
that lion there for your own use, and
yet he is worth $2,f00." A good
companionable tiger can be bought
for $1,000, and a nice leopard is
worth about $400. Monkeys sell in
bunches by the dozen for about 30
each, and a rhinoceros brings about
$3,000. A giraffe is very expensive
and very delicate, and a zebra Btrip
ed up to the mark of ninety-nine and
one is worth about $I,O00L Giraffes
die of indigestion; the rhinoceros,
despite his heavy overcoat, is a fre
quent victim to consumption, and
the monkey dies of emotional lang
uor. The depot for sea lions is San
Francisco. They are taken to the
South California cost and bring about
$400 each. Polar bears come from
the Antics, and are worth about
$2,000. They are kept in deep caves
that are damp and sunless or in dens
set in ice and with huge blocks
of ice dripping from the top. The
point at which they are bought is
Hamburg, very few being taken in
our Arctic regjons. "jTh.e .ostrich has
less sense than any land animal, an.
yet is worth $1 ,000. Ther are caught
when young. : Birds come from all
quarters. The most expensive is
the bird of paradise, which sells at
from $200 to $500, according to plu
mage. Parrots, paroquets and mon
keys are brought in great numbers
by sailors who come ia on foreign
ships.

Grafting Grape Vines.
Grafting vines can be grafted, al
though grafting has not been practic
ed in this country. Various methods

but the following is, probably, as
good as any: "The old vine should
be cut below the ground early in the
spring and before the sap has started
and clett in the same manner as an

ed by improvident tillage, the loss
of fertility applies chiefly to the sur
face, and if we go below the distance
that the roots of the grain extended
we may generally find a subso.l
rich in the elements that give vigor
to the growth of plants. ' In the ap
proved modes of agriculture we seek
to reach and bring up the subsoil
by deep plowing.
A New York journal reports an

GEXTLEMEN-Having been afflicted
