In spite of afl that has been done in the last fifty years to improving the channel, the course of true Jove is still uncertain in places. An in- cident indicative of this, although somewhat cout of the usaal Ime, occurred in Danbury re- cently. There were two suiturs fora young woman’s affections. Number one was first ac~ quainted with her, and bad kept pretty steady company with her through the past month, when number two appeared. The latter very goon got the best hold, and this became appar- ent tothe former. The young lady gave her- self up to umber one until the day after the Fourth, when she suddenly and rather strange- ly veered aboat to the stranger, who is now in town, learning the jewelry business. Number ove was forgotten as easily, apparently, as if he had been an old debt. It was the nicht of the fifth that this change in feeling dawned upon him; ne had purchased a quart of new apples, and taken them to her house. ‘There was com- pany preseut on his arrival, and he requested to see her privately in the hall. She complied with a reluctance that strnck him as being sin- ++ Here is something for yon, Jolla,” he whis- pered, extending the pacsage. Shecolored slightly 8s she said, ‘I cannot take ft, thank you.” “But you don’t know what it is,” he urged, “It is aquart of new apples, just come in market.” Sue made no more. “Why, Julia, take them. They won’t hurt syou. They are ripe.” “No, I mustn't,” she. persisted, keeping her eyes cast down, “Why not?” he pleaded. “ You don’t think Td bring *em up here if L thought they would hurt you, do you?” ‘She moved uneasily, but said nothing. “Jutia,” he beran in a broken voice, “ don’t syou believe me when I tell you they are ripe?” Sbe did not answer, “Can it be possible,” he continued in a voice of pain, **thzt yor. believe that I wonld try to make you sick? iat Pd bring you anything ‘up here that woulu upset you??? “The compavy are waiting, and I must go ‘back to them,” she said, speaking in 2 con- strained tone, and reachiug out to the handle ‘oi the parlor door. You won't take them?” He was very white, and bis voice trembled with suppressed passion. No. : “ Then I'll go home and cat every goldarned one -of ’em before 1 touch ny bed, if they kill gue deader than Goiiar,” und with this ferocious 3breat he bounced out of the house. Whether be did as he promised is not known, but as he was around on the sireet next day it is more than likely that wiser thoughts ‘pre vail ‘Tnuat afternoon he started for her house, to sce if the dreadful thing was true that the jew- cler, whom he designated by the prefix of “pole legs,”’ had really suppianted him. As be neared the boure he saw, with anger, that the jeweler was there, playing croquet ‘with Julia. The sight maddened him. For a moment he looked at them, with clenched hands, then hurried away, with 2 gleam in bis eye that denoted a storm. In'a quarter of an hour be was again approaching the place. He had both hands in ‘the pockets of his sack, as if he was holding on ww something valuable. The dapper young jew- ler was still engaged in the came with the fair young Julia, and their laughing remarks gratea ‘Ssrqustefully upon his ear. Julia looked up and saw him, and a frown covered her face. He saw it and understood its import at once. His own dace frew black with wrath. He turned to her. ‘Julia, have you given me up for this cuss??? he savagely inquires “Siviat do you mean by such language as that?” she angrily demanded. 4 While the varty thus indelicately indicated starcd at the new-comer as he very much doubt- ed his own existence. “Just what I suy,” retorted the discarded one. “Well, the quicker you Jeave vhis yard the better you'll please me,” was the spiteful re- joinder from the fair one. “Then it’s true, it’s trae,” le howled ina yoice of anguish.’ “She has lait me for old ‘pole legs.’ Ob1"—this wizh a sudden re- verse of tone, as the nar brought up a yealization of the bated presence—“ You are the one that’s done it, are you?” turning in raze upon bis rival.” “Mou are the scoun- rel. that left’ me to buy her things for a whoie month to get ther sweetened up for you, and then you come in an’ take her to Yourself!

Where were you when. the icecream an’ cake was around. Oh, you old gimlet-eye,” he added, suddenly removing one hand from tbe recesses <of a ‘pocket and hurling a raw egg full in the thce of bis rival, which, breaking’ in the contact, completely changed the entire expression of the jeweler. « Where were you, I say,” he yelled, dancing around, and drawing forth another ege, At the advent of this awful article, Miss Julia scam- pered into the house, and the affrighted and almost blinded rival struck out wildly for es- cape; but the foe was after him, end but ten feet had been cleared when the’ second ege cauebt him between the shoulders, and sprinkled its glowing color orer, pis nee The unfor- tunate man ran with all his t seeking es cape, but baftied in the search.

REGINALD’S WOOING. Boston Traveller. The shades of night were falling fast as through a Boston suburb passed a pair of lovers engaged in low and murmurous conversation, sand bliss, and tremulous sighs, and pepnermint Jorenges. They stopped, and, leaning on a fence, guzed at the celestial embiem of the crumbling power o1 the Ottoman dynasty, with feelings of overwrought ecstacy.“ How calm? how pellucid! how—aow very much so!” said he, passing his stalwart arm around her waist ina moment of absentmindeduess. “Yes, Rew- inald,” she whispered, ‘does it vot strike a hidden chord in the subtle depths ot being, to wake to life latent sou)-mysteries and merge us in the Universal:” He said he rnought it did. “ Does it not weem to harbinger a better teal!

The wretched man had forgotten the balance of the little piece he had prepared. and recited over correctly a bundred times. Beads of perspiration hung on his ambitious forehcad. Be was abont rallying for a desperate plunge when— “Q.0-0-0-0-h! my gracious! A nasty toad hopped right upon my dress? _ Oh, it’s made me quite faint!

A shy yourg man of Scotland for fourteen Years had wooed the Jassie of his heart, One night Jamie, for that was the young man’s name called to see Jennie, and there was a ter- rible look about his eyes—just as there is some- times when they’ve made up their minds to pop the question, And Jamie came in and sut down by the fire juet as he had done every Tuesday and Friday night for fourteen lung years, and. he talked of the weather, and the cattle, and the crops, and the stock market, I was going to say but no, they didn’t talk about that, And finally Jamie says: “Jennie, Pye known you for a long time.” “Yes, Jamie,” said sie. “And—I’ve thought I’d always like to know you, Jennie.”” “Y-es—Jamie.” “And so I’ve bought—a lot—Jennle.”” “'Y-e-s—J-a-in--e.”” “So—that—when—? “Yes—Jamie—yes.” “We're dead we can lay our bones torether.”* ‘The foot had gone and bought a lot ina grave- ‘d, but Jennie was not discouraged. She knew her: man well—after fourteen years she ought to—and so she said gently: “Jamie.” “Yes, Jennie.” 2 “Don’t you think ’twoula be better to lay our bones together while we're yet alive!”” ADANGEROUS WICETO JOKEWITH. Port Worth (Tex.) Democrat. Marshal Courtright, of this town, thought of joking his wife. Arriving at home at a iate hour, be entered the front gate, carefully clos- ing it. Cautiously groping his way thither, what was bis surprise to see the right nand of his wife lying on the sill of the window. On her fingers she had two gold rings, one of which he jro- ceeded to take off. It being rather loose, he experienced but little trouble, and succeeded in the operation without waking her up. The re- maiming ring was a inuch tighter fit, and, in his effort to extricate it, his wite awoke, finding her hand grasped without by some one whom she at once concluded was 8 robber. Quickly pulling her hand away, she was about to scream, but thinking of a convenient six-shooter under her pillow, she again placed “her “jeweled hand” on the aill, Waich Was grasped by the supposcd burglar, and with the otver she quietly reached for the pistol, and, rising suddenly, brousbt it to bear on her husband; and, but for his pres- ence of mind in quickly calling her, she would have shot him dead. | Mrs. Courtright dispiayed great presence’of mind, fortitude, and courage, and the Marshal should be proud of possessing a wife so fearless and brave. His narrow escape has coinpletely cured him of any further desire to play the role of a midnight-robber. WOW SHE WAS CURED. Under the nead of “ Homeopathy,” the Lon- don Zimes prints the followmne: “Elizabeth Bray, domestic servant, jwas charged before the County Magistrates at Leominster, on Monday, with attempting to drown herself. The pris- oner, sitting before her mistress’ fire at nizht, said to a fellow servant named Witts: *If you won't have me Pi drown m: and at once ran oat and jumped into an adjacent stream of water, She then got out and ran to Stockton, at which place she again jumped into the river, but two womnen rescued her. She jumpedin a third time, but was got out just as two men named Williams and Wall appeared upon the scene. Wall, hearing what was amiss, said to the prisoner: ‘If you wants to drown yourself, ‘Miss, come this way, and I'll see you’ does it.” Seizing the prisoner. he took her to another part of the brook, and dipped her tivo or three times over head, until she Was nearly exhausted, and, crying hard for mercy, promised not. to repeat her foolish conduct. She was brought from the brook thoroughly drenched, but evidently curéd. The Magistrates appeared to think the cure ef- fectual, for, after a suitable admonition, they discharged the prisoner.” WHY SWE DIDN'T FAINT. Detrott Pree Prese, _ At 10 o’clock yesterday forenoon a young man with very white eyes, and a girl of 18 with very long curls, stood together on the City-Hait tower to gaze on the beautiful panorama below. In 2 minute or two the girl began to feel muddy, and, as the sensation increased, she cried out: “On! Will! I'm going to fain: away!” “What's up?” he shouted, as ne put an arm around her. “Oh! I’m so—so—I’m so—!” she gasped, as she began settling down. Es “Here, now! don’t, you do it!” he bluntly exclaimed, as he held her up. “I love you like all jewhittaker, and you know it, but I couldn't ick you up and carry you down them winding stairs if I was engaged to the whole fuunil Brace up now!

M. ae Molinari, a well-known contributor to the Paris Journal des Debats, has republished a series of letters written from Russia in 1860, which are very cutertaining, Among the most amusing of them is oncon religion in Russia. Here fur instance is au edifying legend of St. Nicholas, and how he outwitted St. Elias. Once upon 3 time, there lived a farmer who never failed to keep the St. Nicholas holy. Often, too, he recited litanies in nonor of that saint, and burned bim many tapers. But St. Elias he somehow neglected, and was even £0 ill-advised as occasionally to work on his day. Now it chauced that on one bright afternoon Saints ‘Nicholas and Elias were taking a walk together. “See, my brother,” quoth the first, poivting to the farmer’s land, “what a splendid crop; and in truth the ‘man deserves it, for he honors the saints.’ “Humph!? quoth the ueglected saint, “I am not quite so sure; and when J have spoiled his crops with a little’ hail perbore: he will learn to remember St. Elias.” he saints thereupon parted a little sulkily, and Nicholas went to seek the farmer, and bid’ him sell his crops, as they stood, to the priest of the parish of St. Elias. The farmer aid, and the crops had hardly become the property of the priest before a storm of hail completely ruined them. Of course Nicholas and Elias took another walk, and Elias pointed out to Nicholas thedamage done. “I think I have cooked your farmer's goose”? ‘My farmer's! Nay, my brother, it is the xoose of thy uwn priest that thou hast couked.? — Explanations follow; “Poor pope!” says Elias. . ** Never mind I will soon set his fields to rights.” Nicholas now: runs off, und bids the farmer buy the crops bacic again. The farmer repairs to the pope's house. “Alas! reverend lather,” he begin: “it is a terrible visitation. of ‘heaven, thi Well, stppose we share the losses? I take bac! my crop, and return you the half of my money.” ‘The pope, delighted at the man’s good nature or simplicity, eagerly consents; and in.a few days bitterly regrets the bargain, for the crop has been miraculously restored to more tuan its pristine beauty of appearance. Third walk of Nicholas and ‘Elias, the latter learning with disgust that the full cars he ad- mires belong to the farmer. “ Well, Pil be even with him,” adds the saint, “Jet him putas much as ever he likes on the threshing-floor. he shall beat out each time a measure of wheat and no more."* Nicholas now runs off, and instructs the turmer to put only a sheaf at atime on the threshing-floor; this advice being. conscien- tiously followed, cach sheat produces a measure. ‘The farmer's barns no-longer suffice him; he builds new ones, and they are all filled. Fourth walk of Nicholas and Elias, and manifest irrita- tion of the slighted saint at thé prosperity of a man who has never troubled his head ‘about him. At Jeneth the truth dawus upon him. “Why, Nicholas, it must be you who tell the farmer!” “My dear Elias!’ What an idea! That I-—" «Well, well, [1 make that farmer remember me.” How!” “Catch me telling you.” Nicholas was now alarmed for bis friend, but he bad a ready wit, and gave him some ex- cellent advice. Next morning, accordingly, the two saints chanced to mect the farmer, who hore agreat thick taper of a ruble’s worth in his right hand, and a iniserable little one, not worth a copeck,-in his left. “Hi! my man,” called out Nicholas, “whither bound?” “To offer this big taper at the sbrine of blessed St. Ehas.” “And for whom is the small one?” “That? On that’s for St. Nicholas.” “There, Elias,” says Nicholas, “you accused me vf se- eretfy protecting the farmer; you now see how likely that was to be trae.” And there the ai- fair ended, ior St. Elias, pleased with the big wax candle, aiso took the farmer under his pro- tection; while the farmer ever after observed. the festival of both saints with equal idleness; and doubtless with equal draughts of vodka. M. de Molinari, after admiring the naivete of the story adds, “But what saints and what a relj- ou é QuiPs. Indians are not at all contagions. They are very dificult to catch.

Four gentlemen were traveling from tbe far West to New York City, forthe purpose of buy- ing goods. One of them wasaGerman. As the journey was long and tedious, they con- cluded to while away the hour at a game of euchre, Fritz, the German, had been in the habit of playing draw-poker, so every time be was dealt a good poker Land he would remark, “Vell, T plays poker mit you on dis hand.”” The other parties would say, “ Oh, never mind poker; go on with the game we are play- ing.” retty soon Fritz would gct another poker band, and out it would come, “1 plays poker mit you on dis hand.” “Oh, never mind poker; go on with the game.” Ue talked so much about poker that the party thought finally that they woula give him enough of i. One of them left the table, get another deck of cards similar to the ones they were playing with, and “ put them up" for the oc- casion. Fritz soon lelt the table a moment for a glass of water, and while absent the uew pack was substituted, and was being dealt as he re- turned. The dealer turned upa queen. On looking at bis hand Fritz found he had four kings. He immediately said, “I plays poker mit you ou dis hand.’? Oue of the purty, who had dealt himself four ‘aces, looked at his hand some time, then he looked at thy quven which had been turoed up, then at his hand and again atthe queen. Final- ly he remarkeu: “ Weil, now, Fritz, since youscem so anxious to play poker, PU tell you what PM do. If vou will let me take that queen up, I will give you a little hand at poker.” “AL right,” says Fritz; “all right: you takes up de queen.” ‘The queen was taken up, and the_bettin: commenced. Fritz bet off $50. Juhin £3. raise: him $50.. Fritz raised that $100. Juan went $500 better, and so the betting went on until pest Fritz had put up all the money he bad rought to buy goods with. When the money was all exhausted and it came to a call, John showed down bis four aces and his queen and took the money. Fritz didn’t saya word, but went on with the game of euchire for about haif an hour. Finally he looked up with a pe plexed countenance, and remarked interrog: tively, “John, I betinks all this while what dat queen have mit to do with dat hand.” IT WAS NOT A SUCCESS. Philadelphta Press. He had been reading how: store-girls and seamstresses would be a great deal better off if they went into good families as servants. All the newspapers said so, and of course it was the fact. . It was with the vest intentions, and sole- jy with a desire to benetit a fellow-creature, that he entered un Eignth street store bent on ex- plaining the matter to one of the salesladies, and showing her how much more comfortable and happy she would be if she got a place as house-girl somewhere, where sne would have nothing tudo all day but wash the dishes, make the beds, elean up the reoms, answer the door, and ‘make herself useful in. other trifling ways.

Sol Kimball, of Warren County, saw from his breakfast-table a young buck grazing on the side of a ravine about 300 yards from the house, He seized his rifle and, without any other am- mution than the one ball therein contained, pro- ceeded, by the aid of tue garden feuce, to siip up on the buck. He reached the ravine, and noise- lessly made his way to within a good. gunshot istance of the buck, which had then descended tothe ravine, He fired, and, though a good marksman, missed his shot, but kiiled two deer that were grazing just beyond. As be weut up the ravine to recover his game, he flushed a tluek of wild turke¥s, wlich, by the way, was his favorite game. Ge soon erected a ‘¢ blind,” aud with his mouth ‘yelped” up 2 fine gobbler. It was not until he drew a “bead”? on the trusty rifle that he was reminded tuat there Was no load in it and that he oud no ani- munition along. By much perseverance he finaily got the gobbler within tree feet of his “blind,” and, jumping vut suddenty aud at the eune time making a yery hideous yell, so frightened his turkeysbip as to prevent him from flying. Sol rau bim down, caught him, and wrung off his head. Arter zetting his two deer and the turkey gobbler, he ‘started home, and upon his way came upon a covey of part- ridges. Me imitated by his voice a young purt- ridge in distress, whereupon the enure Hock, wWith ruffled feathers, made an attaék upon him: He drew his ramrod frum the ritle aud took his time in killing cab ana every une of the covey as. they appruached hin for pattle. Hugh J. Jones, Esq., of Warren County, will vouch for the zoregoing tacts, DEBT-COMPROMISING. Suffolk (V.) Herald. Upon arriving at Richmond to attend the State Convention the Doctor approached Ford’s Hotel, weart and dusty. A boot-biack acvosted him at the hotel entrance, “Shine, boss; have a shine?” “Yes,” suid the Doctor; and the boy Was at work in a moment. “But, stop, what are you going to charge?” ‘Only 10 cents, boss; jess 10 cents.” “Well,” suid the doctor, “I haven’t anything legs than a dollar ‘ill, but go ahead, go ahead and black them, and wheu you get throuzh we will walk into the hotel and get this bill changed, and then 1’ pay you.” The boy stopped work; resting on his knees, his arms akimboy, he looked. inte tae tlurid countenance, and sat: * Ax yer pardivg, boss; but isn't you a member of de Convention?” “Yes,” said the ductor, “Lam a delegate, certainly Pm a delezate; but what have you to do with that? “Surry for you, boss: sorry to let yer go off with jess one Shoe blacked; but fact I, im ‘traid yer might want ter compromise dat debt.” CASABIANUA. The boy who stood on the burving deck, whence all but him had fled, and, because he was blowed up for his pains, has been celebrat- ed in every Anglo-Saxon school-hsuse on two or more continents, was a really, truly Cas bianca, But he didn’t remain at his post quite aslongas Mrs. Hemans, in tolerable verse, makes out. Casabianca’s first name was Owen. He was the son of Louis Cesabiauca, a Corsi- can, and a friend of Bonaparte. His mother was a beautiful Corsican, devotedly attached to her son. Owen washer only child, a handsome, manly litle fellow, with her beauty in his flash- ing cyes and dusky hair. She died while be was quite young. and the boy went with his father, and became the pet of all on bourd. He was made midshipman ond, at the carly age of 10, was with his father in -the battle of the Nile. The ship caught fire during tbe action, and Capt. Casabianca was struck in the head oy a splinter, which Jaid bim upon the deck insensibie. His allant son, unconscious of the chieftain’s loom, still held his post at the battery, where he worked like the hero he was. He saw the jlameg raging around him, he saw the ship’s crew deserting him one by one, and the boy was urged to fice. With courage and coolness be- yond his years, he refused to desert ‘his post. Worthy son of Louis Casabinnea, he foazht on and never abandoned the Orient till the whole of the immense vessel was in flames. Then, seeking refuge on a floating mast, he leit the burning ship behind him, But he was too late. The final catastrophe came like the judgment doom. With an explosion so tremendous that every ship felt it to the bottom, the Orient blew up, and. from amone the wreck the next morn- ing was picked up the dead, mangled body of the young hero. THE ASTORS. New Fork Correspondence Otiea Herald. One of the oddities of the city isan old gen- tleman who boards at Leggett’s Hotel (near Printing House square), and who is now one of our oldest residents. I refer to William Wallace Bruce, who for a half century was in the service of the Astor family. He is ulmost the only per- son Who can remember old Joun Jacob as a busi- ness. man. He served as collector of rents for many years, und can tell many interesting in- cidents uf hechose, but his lips are sealed against all disclosures. 2 Mr, Bruce cay remember the time when Will- jam B, Astor was a young man, but he has lived tu see the two sons of the latter divide their iminense estate, thus creating two grand prin- cipalities. Their oitices are side by side in Prince street, where the business haz been managed fora halt century. Such a spectacle has never beeu seen before in America—two .broth- ers, cach with $40,000,010, with adjoining oflices and sets of clerks. The only thing they hold in common is the little brick land ottive waich contaius the maps, searches, and other apers belonging to their natural interests. Each tas an immense dre-proof sate in this of- fice, which is said to be specially guarded at night. ‘These safes probably hold a largcr amount of Goyerument bunds than any other private establishments in Americx. In a re- ligions point or view these brothers are Episco- pallans, John Jacob being a vestryntan of ‘Cnn ity Church. He is about five years older than William, but is not so much given to display. The dilference between the brothers in this point is shown by the fact that Join Jacob's ottice bears nu name, while the adjacent onc has a showy gilt sign which reads, “ William Astor.” This is the first time in sixty years that tau As- tor name. (of this tamily) bas been put on a sign board. eo IN MEMORIAM. [Sister Rose Reilley (Sister of Charity), of St. Cotumba's school, tho died Aug. 25, 1877.] erAruel my beloved!
