While we were enjsuwd at whist one evening a lady neat?-l in the background, a!rt from tlie players, (1 thick it was his mother), o.Hhed by the lull, was in dulging in a placid nap. One of the players w ith aiy glee suddenly banged down the king of tramps to take the last trick, and thereby aaakened the sleeper, who aUrlud up in affright. "I ion't be alarmed exclaimed Pick ens. "Yob look awfully like one of the defunct on the day of judgment" Why r "Ilecauw you were awakened by the ronnd of the last trump.'' He pretended to be dreadfully disgust ed when bis wife attempted punning, and vowed he was deVerijraling under the influence of this Ud example, though be could not help laughing as she perpe trated her little harmless attempts with the rmwt innocent and dejwwating air, turning up her eyes with affected terror of bis wrath and terminating in a pretty little moan, while be pretended to tear Jus hair and writhed in well acted atti tude of horror. One evening bis friend, M. entered the room with aeoniplacent air, arrayed in an outrageously long stK-k, which he evi .lently thought worthy of a RnimmelL ltickens surveyed it for some moments with a thoughtful and pilr.z-led expres sion, bis forefinger on bis forehead in imiuition of Sterne. "Halloa, Charlie, what are yu staring at my stock for?" inq.iired M. A iieavy load of doubt and -onjecture HeetiuHl t le lifted from the mind of Jickens. He heaved a svh of relief, and beamed with thankful satisfaction. "St.K-k! It is really meant for stock, is it ? I am so glad to know yon meant it for that. It was painful to think yon might have intended it for a waistcoat" I have never wet with any one w ho entered into games with as much spirit and boisterous glee ; the simplest of them be contrived to make amusing, and often instructive- His fun was most infectious, and be had three able partisans in bis brothers and Mr. Milton, and under the incentive of his prompting they became irresistibly comic Under their manipu lation "Vingt-et-un," "Loo," etc., became so totally altered as to le scarcely recog nizable, and generally ended in unblush ing cheating and consequent uproar. The stakes were usually thrown into heap and distributed honestly at the end of the evening. We went one evening in "the whole strength of the company," to spend a few hours at the Tivoli Gardens, pint pur porting to le Yauxhall on a small scale. Some res)etuble people were dancing in a part set aide for that purpose, and we young ones were seised with the desire to get up a quadrille among ourselves. As no one knew u we decided on enjoying ourselves, with the exception of Pickens, who feared to be recognised in these "halls of dazzling light," and therefore walked about outside. The fae-simile of Morlcena Kenwigs was capering about quite near us, her sandy hair in two long plaited tails m ith large blue bows float ing down her lack. She wore sandaled hoon and frilled pantalets, and looked os if she bad been purposely got up for the part of Morleena. While Dickens was gazing in amusement at the resem blance, a man came close to him and stared with rude recognition into his face. Pickens moved away, but his tor mentor, in no wise discouraged, followed him, wide eyed and wide eared, impu dently determined to pick up any "un considered trifles" in the way of remarks by Hot. At last Pickens waxed wroth and turned on him suddenly, lifting his hat with elalxirate jsjlitenesg. 'lYsy, air, may I ask, are you a native , of this place?" "No no sir, I am notT stammered the other, taken aback. "Oh ! 1 leg your pardon (with smiling mavitvl. I fancied I could detect Broad stares on your face I" The discomfited m-ature vanished into space and was seen no more. We were strolling along the sands next day, our party increased by the addition of Mr. Fletcher, who had just arrived on a visit to Dickens. He was an excentric man, impulsive and erratic, indeed, most "unexpected" in bis beluivior. He sud denly ran some yards in front of ns, ca reering along with a frolicsome air, and indulging in sundry odd and unaccount able antics, thereby attracting the atten tion of several jmssing strangers. They atood still and stared after him. "Ah V sighed one with profound commiseration, w-agging bis head mournfully, "how sadl You see it's quite true. Poor Boz ! What a pity to see such a wreck V 1 ickens glared at him and called to his friend. "Halloa, Fletcher, I w ish you'd moderate your insane gambolings: There are fools among the British public w ho might mistake you for me." "The fools" looked decidedly snubbed as they betook, themselves off, pursued by the glowing fire of bis eyes, which neened to scorch tliem. He was exceed ingly annoyed, ami showed it in the di lation of bis sensitive nostrils and the tightening of his lips, as he walked on. He broke into a laugh after a few mo ments. "I'm afraid I was rather down on those poor beggars, but I do not like that am bling ass to be mistaken for me." (This was ouly an ebullition of momentary an noyance, as he bad undoubtedly a great esteem f Mr. Fletcher.) Ttmilr liar. The New Prize Story is eagerly sought St, read with pleasure or disappointment, i then tosseif 'aside and forgotten. But ladies who read of lh Tierce's Favorite rmtcription, read it again, for they discover in it something to prize a messenger of joy to thwse suf fering from functional derangements or any of the painful disorders or weak nesses jieculiar to their sex. Periodical pains, internal inflammation and ulcera tion, readily yield to its wonderful cura tive and healing powers. It is the only medicine for women, sold by druggist, xindfr a p!tire gtmmutet from the manu facturers, that it will give satisfaction in every case, or money w ill be refunded. This guarantee has been printed on the liottle-wrapper, and faithfully carried out lor many years. A Kansas youth, w ho believed himself possessed of extraordinary mesmeric powers, tried to hypnotize his dog. The dog didn't take kindly to the process, and the enterprising genius now jrtands up to cat his pie. Hunlina for "Flghtlrt Joa.M When the street of Gellysbarg had been cleared of all armed bodies of l"n ion soldiers, the Confederates began to loam about at will, sightseeing and forag ing. At a house, closely barred, a party of these independent halted and began to reconnoitre. Unseen from the street the owner was watching from an upper w indow, and soon he heard his name used in a way very unceremonious. The door plate revealed the name, and one of the Confederates, who was a German, amused his companions by spelling it out, "T y-fro-n, Tyson." Then he added, "Wonder w ho he is?" and, going to the door, he legan to pound with fist and heels to alarm the house. The manner of the men seemed so good natured that Mr. Tyson opened the door and invited them in to try his excellent water, for they all looked warm and exhausted. After drinking heartily the Onnan spoke up again and said : "W here is 'Joe' Hooker? We're after him and we mean to liave him if we have to go to Philadelphia for him." At this hour the streets were filled with carta and w heelbarrows, and excited men and women bearing trunks and bun dles and leading frightened children; mothers with babes in their arms in the throng, all hastening out of reach of the oldiery, the bullets and the shells. Offi cers in gray rode up and down warning the people to remove women and chil dren to places of safety, as Lee was about to shell the town. It was a trying mo ment, but Tyson would not be scared or cajoled into revealing anything. He did not know "Joe" Hooker any more than he knew Ie's humblest private, bat he had his garret full of Union soldiers who had been cut off in the street, and he de cided to be a knownothing, and send the scouting Confederates away as ignorant as they came. After listening to a few of his blind answers the spokesman agreed to 1 satisfied with some bread and but ter and clear out and seek for "Fghting Joe" elsewhere. There was a fresh bak ing of bread in the house, but Tyson did not know what panicky times might fol low, and he knew that his blue coated wards up stairs were hungry ; so he put on a long face and declared that be had just had a visit from a party of Confeder ates who had eaten up abont all the pan try contained, and there really was not "enough left now to begin on." The true bummer never expects to live high on a route that has just been traveled by oth ers of his kind, and these unfortunate fellows took the burgher s word for gos pel truth and went awav in peace. Women at the Front It is worth while occasionally to take account of the notable things which j women are doing, not more to confound the skeptical than to c mifortthe true be lievers in womanly capacity and endur ance under severe tests. One of the most i noteworthy events in modern politics was the final extirpation of slavery in Bra zil. This work was begun by IVim Pedro in 1K71, in his decree for the gradual abol ition of slavery, but he was hampered in the execution of his benevolent inten tions by successive Ministers. It remain ed for his daughter, the Princess Isabella, who since last July, in the absence of the Kmperor, has been at the head of the Government as Ilgent, to give the finishing stroke to the Imperial policy. She was not content to a ait for slavery to die out of the land by the slow process of mortality. When her Ministry refused to co-operate with her in an act of immediate emancipation she cut short the difficulty by thesimple method of dis missing the Ministers and appointing oth ers who were of her own mind. Then the slaves were euiancipated and the be nevolent desire of her father realized. If a man had done this thing he would have been lauded to the skies as a bene factor of his race. But the Princess Isabella of Brazil is not a single example of govering capacity. The Queen of England for fifty years has vindicated the capacity of her six by perfonning her responsible duties with unfailing intelligence and dignity, In Spain a queen sorely beset with political difficulties and national distraction is bringing order out of confusion. Sjwnish merchants, aided by the active exertions of the Goverment, are trying to re-establish closer commercial relations with the Spanish-speaking countries of America. The disposition to throw down the wall of tariff restriction by which Spain has protected herself in ruin and desolation has ben strengthened, and it is well known that the Queen Kegent is the in citing cause for these regenerative move ments. Again, the only pet son in Germany who seems to be able to make headway against the imperous will of Bismarck is the Empress. She is the friend of the persecuted Jews, of her own downtrodden sex, and of all liberal and enlightened public polities. To jump at once from the top to the bottom of the social scale, a daring wom an in England has shown at once a nerve power and a muscular jwwer no man may excel, in making a balloon ascension w hile holding fast to a rope by her te?th. And another w oman has gone from Ie- troit to London to charm all England by her wonderful whistling. Clearly this is the day of woman, her time of recognition and of triumph. , . Character of the Cowboy. There is no eight hour law in cowboy land ; during round-up time we often count ourselves lucky if we get off with much less than .sixteen hours, but the work is done in the saddle, and the men are spurred on all the time by the desire to outdo one another in feats of daring and skillful horsemanship. There is very little quarreling or fighting; and though the fun often takes the form of rather rough horse play, yet the practice of car rying dangerous weapons makes cow boys show far more rough courtesy to each other and far less rudeness to strangers than is the case among, for in stance, eastern miners, or even lumber men. When a quarrel may very proba bly result fatally, a man thinks twice be fore going into it; warlike people or classes always treat one another with a certain amount of consideration and politeness. The moral tone of a cow camp, indeed, is rather high than otherwise. Mean ness, cowardice and dishonesty are not tolerated. There is a high regard for truthfulness and keeping one's word, in tense contempt for any kind of hypocri sy, and a hearty dislike for a man w ho shirks his work. Many of the men gam ble and drink, but many do neither; and the conversation is not worse than in moat bodies composed of male human beings. A cowboy wilt not submit tame ly to an insult, and is very ready to avenge his own wrongs; nor has be an over-wrought fear of shedding blood. He possesses, in fact, few of the emasculated, milk and water moralities admired by the pseudo philanthropists; but he doe possess to a very high degree, the stern, manly qualities Uiat arc so valuable to a nation. Clocks are awfully dissipated; they keep all kinds of hours. Woman may be a puzzle, but man is not willing to give her up. Fitted Up For Sheridafl.i VTakhisoto, Jane 27. The t?. 8. steamer Hwatara arrived at the Washing top navy yard at noon to-day, front !for folk, for the purpose of taking General 8biTidan to Xouquitt, Massachusetts. Im mediately after he is taken on board the vessel will sail for Fortress Monroe, where a supply of milk will be purchas ed, and then proceed along the coast to New England. It was stated at army headquarters that the General will probably be taken away to-morrow. The arrangements had not been concluded, and it was desired to make the removal in as quiet a way as pwsible, as it was considered a very deli cate operation. The use of the vessel was tendered to General Sheridan verbally by Secretary Whitney, who assured the physicians that everything possible would be done for the patient's comfort The Galena was the vessel selected for the service, but she had left for Xew York before word could be sent to her com mander. Commander McGowan, of the Swatara, was then notified to sail for Washington. General Sheridan will be accompanied by Mrs. Sheridan, Colonel Sheridan, Poc tors O'Reilly and Yarrow and a trained nurse. Every arrangement has been made for the care and comfort of the dis tinguished patient, and it is expected that he will derive great benefit from the trip. One of the General's friends, in speaking of the proposed trip this morn ing, said : "The General is a good sailor and was never seasick in his life. He has taken several trips in the United States steamer Galena and has become quite attached to that vessel and its officers. He wanted to have her for this trip, but she was out at sea and could not be secured in time. The Swatara is a vessel of the same type and class, and as she has has just been fitted out for a cruise is in excellent con dition. Her captain, Commander Mc Gowan, is an accomplished officer, and is a jiersonal friend of the (Jeneral's. The trip to Xonqtiitt will be made in three days, and with few, if any, stops after leaving the navy yard. It may be neces sary to stop at Fortress Monroe for milk, but I doubt it. I predict that the Gen eral will pick np rapidly from the time he begins to sniff the invigorating sea air at the mouth of the river. The naval people have every convenience for trans porting invalids, and will adopt the same measures with General Sheridan that they would employ in the case of an offi cer with a broken leg." Colonel Kellogg, of (reneral Sheridan's staff, will meet the rty on their arrival at Nonquitt. He will take the Boston train for that place to-morrow and com plete the arrangements for the tieneral b reception. Colonel Kellogg will take the General's four children with him, and also Mrs. Kellogg and bis own family. But She Loved Him all the Same. A Xem-port clergyman tells thus of a recent marriage which he performed: "The parties were foreigners, both good looking and well dressed and appearing. The groom presented his license, and, this being correct in all particulars, the clergyman began to read the service. The groom was befittingly solemn for the occasion, but on the face of the bride was a smile, which broke into laughter before the ceremony was half completed. The clergyman stopjed and looked rather se vere. The groom, too, was troubled, and saw that some explanation was necessary. He looked at his bride helplessly a mo ment and then said : 'She understand not a word o' English or what you sain'. She Portugese. But I tink she luv me, all the same.' The ceremony was com pleted." Worcfftrr Spy. "Yea ; I shall break the engagement," she said, folding her arms and looking defiant ; "it !s really too much trouble to converse with him ; lies deaf as a post, and talks like he had a mouthful of mush. Besides, the way be hawks and spits is disgusting." "IKin't break the en gagement for that; tell him to take Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy. It will cure him completely." "Well, I'll tell him. I do hate to break it off, for in all other re spects he's quite too charming." Of course, it cured his catarrh. She Shocked the Minister. The innocence of childhood was never more strikingly illustrated than at an evening party recently held in the neigh borhood of this city. Several clergymen were present, and one of them, who is especially noted for his austerity and pi ety, was offered a glass of water. An in fant daughter of the host, who overheard the tender of the drink and remembered her father's entcrUinm :nt of others, as tounded the whole company and "laid up" a whipping for herself by remarking in a loud voice of surprise: "Papa, why don't yoo give the minister some beer?" Allxiny JmtmaL Knew He Was All Right "Your husband is out pretty late o, night, Mrs. Cally." "Yes, Mrs. Pally; his business keeps him late, yoa know." " "Are you sure it's business? These men ain't to be trusted too far, Mrs. Cal ly. I speak from experience." "Well, I guess my John is all right." "What makes you so confident?" "Well, he shaves only once a week, and then he grumbles about having it to do. He doesn't give the least bit of at tention to personal appearance ; indeed, I liave bard work in keeping him tidy. Then he wont put a drop of cologne on bis handkerchief, and " "That's enough, Mrs. Cally. There's no female in his case, Hint's sure. He's all right." Botton (Wirr.

Five persons were prostrated by tbe heat and ta ken to the hospital, while auotber was sent to the insane hospital. There were 811 deaths in the city this week as against 680 last week. The increase is directly due to tbe beat, nine-tenths of the cases corning from tbe crowded tenements. This is the hottest June on record. Tbe highest temperature in June in seventeen years was 84 degrees on the 30th, in 1(C2 and the lowest was 10 degrees on June 10. 173.

Tbe weather dur ing the past week in the grain regions of the Northwest has been generally favorable to growing crops, and conditions have improv ed in the upier Mississippi and Missouri valleys ami in Michigan, although heavy lm-al rains in Missouri are reported to have injured wheat and delayed harvesting. An excess of rum is reorted front Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi, which has been unfavorable to tbe cotton crop. In tbe west portion of tbe cotton region less rain, anil clear weather would doubtless benefit tbe growing crops, while in tbe east portion of the cotton region, including Alabama, North Carolina, tbe weather has been favorable for all crops. In Ohio, Indiana and Connecti cut more rain is needed, while generally throughout the Middle, Atlantic and New Kngland States tbe weather of tbe past week has improved the crop conditions.

A party of 1C ladies and genllemeu hired the steam yacht Oli vette and left this city at 8 o'clock last night. It being flood tide, tbe jetty at tbe mouth of the bay was covered with water. The pilot had scarcely got his bearings when he heard a sharp, grating sound, anil, realizing that he was on tbe jetty, stopped the engine. Sev eral of tbe male passengers jumped over on tbe jetty and in doing so the boat lurched and slid otf into deep water. The girls then made a rush fur the side of tbe boat. This caused her to keel over suddenly, and in a second she turned bottom side up. The air was immediately filled with screams for help from a score of persons straggling for their lives in the water. Tbe cries were heard at Greenville and other points on tbe bay and rescuers soon went to the scene of the acci dent. But when the boats arrived it was found that six of the party had been swept away and drowned. Tbe names of the lost were : Louis (jroff, aged 20; Uussie Lutz, a,;e 'JO; Lizzie Celius, aged 15; Minnie Burgess, aged 1!); Gussie Weber, aged 19, and Annie Fricke. Fred Christopher, one of the rescu ed, was engaged to be married to Annie Fricke, who was drowned. Early this morning a crowd of people, in cluding relatives and friends of tbe drowned, left this city to aid in tbe search for the bod ies of the victims.

Tbe bulletin of the doctors issued this evening says the patient rested well last night, and had a comfortable day. His pulse continues strong, though irregular and respiration seems more even. My boy, three years old, was recently taken with cold in the head. It seemed finally to settle in his head, which was stopped np for days and nights, so that it was difficult for bim to breathe and sleep. I called a physician who prescrib ed, but did him no good. Finally I went to the drug store and got a bottle of Ely's Cream Balm. It seemed to work like magic. The boy's nose waa clear in two days, and he bas been all - right ever since. E. J.
