W, MISS EUPHEMIA’S POLICY. New Vork Mail. Miss Euphemia Milliken, of Forty-first street, «#as, four years azo, a teacher of musicin For- ty-first street. She was a most excellent young 1ady, but was sorely put to it to support, by her upaided exertions, an invalid mother and three vounger sisters, who had also to be educated. But she managed it by living very closely, and denying herself everything but the barest ne- cessities of life. Miss Euphemia was teloved by two men. One 2¥as Mr. John Henry Potterson, 2 youngz man of pbout her own age, and the other Mr. Thomas $icNice, an ciderly gentleman of 74 Mr. Pot- terson was a bank clerk, burdened with the care ‘of his aged parents and a paralytic sister, and bis small salarv just enfficed to keep the pot boiling in his humble home. Possibly the simi- 2arity of the situation was what made Miss Eu- phemia love him so0; but true it is that she was devotedly attached to him, and after the usual Horm the two had plighted their troth. - But when one morning the ancient McNice, who was a rich old bachelor, a very rich one, proposed to marry her, she pondered. After pondering she went for poor John Henry. “ John Henry, Mr. McNice has offercd tomar- Iy me; what shall Lao?" 4 M. ‘him, I suppose,” John Henry replied titterly. ** Heisrich and I am poor.” I don’t ¥mow of any firl that would hesitate.

For us to marry is impossible, as we both are too heavily burdencd. We can, as ave are, barely keep those dependent upon us. Were we to marry and—well, it would never ‘answer.

We can live without Jove but not without beef. Letus be " John Henry expostulated, but to no purpose. The wise young lady had made up ber mind, 2nd she married McNice. The Potterson family received many gifts from_the new Mrs. McNice, but they were in- Veriably sent back. irs. McNice offered John ‘Heonry assistance to better his condition, but he indignantly spuroed it and sulked. “Joln Henry,” shic remarked onc day, “you are & fool, and you will ackuowledge it some tay." TThe sccond anniversary of her wedding found ier a widow. She made the aged MceNice an ex- cllent wite, but within twenty-four hours of he death of her husband she interviewed John enry, and songratulated him, “Now, I can marry you. With the fortune of ny late husband we can live as we ought to live, and be happy. Surely,jJobn;Henry, it was morth while to wait two years for all this mones?” John Henry quite agreed with her, and very happy they were till they discovered that the »1d_gentleman had sears before his marriage made over every dollar he bad to a nephew, the sonsideration beinx a Jife annuity, which they nad hived quite up to. 4 John Heory,” said she; “we can’t marry; 3 an going to have the fortunc I am entitled 10! ‘The nephew had been a constant visitor at the house of his uncle, and she very well knew that it was her attractions that brought him there. ‘Bhe looked well in weeds, and the nephew was very kind and attentive to her.

LOVE AND MURDER. Cincinnati Commercial. A new phase of feeling has come over the wife-murderers. It is the sentimental phase. Husbands murder wives quite as often as they ever did, but they now murder them because they love them. There was poor Kitty Elroy, out in the Black Hills. Kitty complained tbat she no longer could live with her husband, because of his ugly and cruel treatment. * Curse you, Kitty,” says lie; “If you can’t live with me, you shan't live with anybody else.” At that he pulled out his little pistol and shot poor Kitty dead. Public ]s;enlimnnt excuscd him for it because he loved itty. There, too, was certatn much-married Mor- mon_Bisbop, bichup in the councils of the Lord's saints. One of his mauoy wives let her uffections stray fiom this saint of the Lord to o profane person. The Gentile, like Barkis, was “willin',”* and the Morinon wife forgot her dutics to her bundredth part of a husband so far as to_attempt an elopement with the fascl- nating Gentile. The Lord’s anointed thereup- on, hEc the zood shepherd of the parable, left the ninety-and-nine that went not astray, and hunted over hill and dale for the one sheep he had lost. IIc found her, and shot her Gentile comvanton dead. He did not shoot the stray wife. He loved her too much. He led the weeping woman tenderly home. He Joved her so that he went down upon his knces and prayed over her fervently and owcrfully, and ningled his_tears wich hers. Nien he sut down and took her upon his knee and kissed her. Then he took a razor and cut her throat. _He sits in a high seat in the sanctu- ary of the Lord’s anointed to this guy. Public sentiment justificd bim, because he loved his wife. A Sgu Pedro (Tex.) man also loved his wife desperately. But she would not get up morn- ings and make the fires. Her loving busband reasoned with lier, as any patient, right-minded husband would have done. Iis arguments had no effect. She still refuscd to get up first. 'Then nie embraced ber affectionately, but mildly, with a club. Still she persisted m her rebellious conduct. This_time he admonished her a liitle barder with the club. If he hadn’t Joved her he would not have cared whether she made fires ornot, but at last his affection was so violent that, after theclub of correction had knocked her down, she never got. up any more. e loved her, but she wouldn’t make tires, aud now she makes vo fuss. Finally, there was Gustav Labutat, a French- man, in New Orleaus, who, a few daysazo, mur- dered his wife in the most artistically affection- ave manner. He gave her time to pray,—which was very kind of him. Then he put his arm around her waist, and struck his knife up to the hilt in her stom- ach. ¢ On finding she was not dead,” says Gustav, “I picked her up, kissed her, and sawl: +God bless you! 1 love you, you are not dead; prav again, beesuse L am going to finish you.’ She placed her arms about my neck and said: +Gustav, I love you.! Oh, God! it was tne bap- piest moment of my lite. I saw she was suffer- ing. and, as I could not stand and_see hier suf- fer, 1 took the knife-blade and cut_her throat.” Here was the most considerate ard allectionate husband in_the world. He could not bear to see her suffer. Like poor Kitty Elroy’s hus- band, like tho Lord’s anointed Mormon Bishov, and the Texas man, he loved his wife so that be killed her. All of which s cnough to make a woman question whether fu is mot rather risky to have a vers loving hus- band. At the moment he was embracing her with one arm, might he not be reaching around for his razor or little pocket-knife? "And the more loving he became, the more danger there might be, especially as public scotiment sympa- thizes with the man who has to kilt his wife be- cause he loves her. - At any rate, whenever the modern husband puts his arm around his wife's waist, equeezes her affectionately, and, with his eyes full of tears, says: ** God bless you, I love you,” it will not be a bad idea for the wife to keep one eye on him, iest at that moment he be prepariog to wake her an angel. TIOW SHOE MANAGED IT. Pittsourg Gazeite. Mr. »farooney is forcman in a foun- dry, and gets §30 a week. With this salary the family ought to get along well and save ‘money, but they do mot. Mr. Marooney has a cousin, a shoemaker, who gets only $15 a weck, yet. who sails rieht alonz in lizhtnlog express, while Marooney comeslagging aiong in a freight with a hot-box. =y “How o you mansge ity Jack?” he would frequently ask, ¢ to get along the way you do? Here you actually keep your family and save money on $15 a week, while it takes cvery cent 1 make to live, and 1 get double the pay!” +Oh, 1 don’t manage it all.” says Jack; “I just take my money home to the old Woman on Saturday night, and she takes S5 torun the house with, and puts the rest carefully away " “Do you give her all the moneyi” asks Mr. Marooney, m . £0h, 1o, not quite; I keep out a lictle for tobaceo during the week, and a_trifle to keep me from fecling lonesome. If I kept it all in my pocket I would spend it sure, but Mary keeps it tight and safe.” Mr. Marooney talked it over with nis wife that nighé, and they concluded to try Jack's plan. The following Saturday night he brought home his 330, and keeping back oue, put the rest m her keeping. and she promised to do her level best to set the table on but 35. The first week she squeezed through somehow, and got along with $6.50. Mr. Maroooey was quite pleased, and began laying awake at night thin! ing about what kind of a house he woula build. Me thoughta plain rustic cottage with a bay ‘window would be about right. her expense account footed up $5.50 and Mr. Marooney changed his desigm for a future residencé fromn frame to brick. The next week she brought it down 30 cents more, and he added 2 wing, with a wash-house. 'Then' she made a superbumay struggle, quit buying milk, and cawme within two shillings of the goal for which sne had been striving. Mr. Marovney decided on an iron fence io front of s premises. The next week sbe lost ground, slipped, and came out at the $6 post. Mr. Maroovey thought a neat railing fence was good enough for auyoody, but when the ensuing week she came in with fiying_colors, and struck the 35 mark in both eyes, Mr. Marooney had the iron railing roin- stated, and granite steps rupping up to the door. The next week she took the money she had saved, and went and bought ner a love of a hat, too cute for anything, a black silk dress, and a cheruboi a cloak, that made the womnan next door cry with envy till her nose zot_sore, aud Mr. Marooney came to the conclusion that it aidn’t pay to live io one’s own property, keep- ing up repairs, insurance, etc., and the worry and stew in dread of fire and earthquakes more than counterbalanced any trifling advantages there might be.

Now rushiog along at the rate of sixty miles an hour, now stopping within a train’s length at the bidaing of a grim-looking man in the cab. With the shrill voice of the engine he commu- nicates with the train-men, and talks by means of the whistle to bis brother engincers on other trains a mile or more away, to whom ‘‘engine talk " is as familiar and fntelligible as the sound of the instrument to the operator of the tele- graph or thespoken words of manto his fellow. “Ihis partieular enzine was in Chicago, and its single eye was glaring in the dircction of Bur- Imgton.

Persons who never make the acquaintance of the express and postal men, and know nothing of the manipu- 1ations of 1hc mails and the handling of express goods,—persons who never get beyond the fumes of the smoking-car.

Which is somewhat of a digression, for I am still on the train, upon which I saw a young mother, to which I had oo objection. The young mother had a younger baby, to whicli I bad no right to raise objec- tion, for it is a right young mothers have. 1 did object mentaily, however, when the young mother sat down in close proximity to the frout door of the coach, just where the blasts of cold wind could reach the little one at every openiug of the door—aund no ou¢ ever shuts the door upon entering a car, cxcept persous who are acenstomed to traveling. The caild, though not more than three months old, kneyw that was 1o place for it, and toid the mother o in lan- guage which I understood—though not a mother. The mother did mnot properly juterpret the remarks of the child, for she was not as ves fawmiliar with the languase of baby- fund, having but lately reached its mysterious realms. [ never heard a more y-cloquent lect- ure on the subject of crucliy to children, though “yow'd scarce expect oue of ifs nge,’ cte. The apolause on the part of some of the hearers was more forclvle than encouragiug— more hearty than polite. Thechild appreciated the encorcs, answering every call before the curtain—sometimes repeating the whole piece. Its running throush the ery was rendered with great feeling and with so much celat that the motber was oblized to hold its bands. In that car were fourtcen women, all of whom were doubctess mothers or daughters. They scemed, however, to have no fellow-feeling in their bosoms; for during the live-long night mnot one of them voluntcered any assistance or sympathy to the young mother. A gray-haired gentleman— somebody’s darling—erandfather—ventured across the aisle with anoffer of assistance, which was very aceeptable Lo the tired mother. It may be one of the *rizhts of women? to per- sistently retuse to tender to her own sex the amenities of life, but it is not lady-like, nor in keeping with their general gooducss of heart. 1 have seen a young lady occupy a whole seat in 3 railway ear while other ladies were standing. The same young lady voluntarily made room for a good-looking young ian, on sight. The Foung man scemed to like it, to0. The fussy old gentleman was on board. - He is on every train. He mislaid his ticket, or put it away 60 carefully as to be uuable to produce it when the conductor called for “tigrets.” His pockets were inverted and iuventoried. The long strap was taken from the long, old- fashivned pocketbook, and the contents of the book displayed on theseat. The old gentleman’s hands trembled, and perspiration stood upon his brow. He was a kindly-looking old man, with hair as white as the suow, but as a traveler inexperienced, and he was wroth with the conductor when oblized to pay bis fare because he could produce no ticket, which he robably Jeft on the window in the ticket-office n his hurry to get aboard hzlf an hour before the starting time of the train.

Aud then that tape-worm wound itself around the lees of one of the tables and coiled upon the top of the table, and the decks were cleared for action. The fire in the range was poked. There was a rattling of Dots, pans, and dishes. Supplies were brourht forth from the innermost recesses, and I think toey telegraphed abead for more. 1In threc quarters of an hour that apoetite reached the bottom of the bill-of-fare aud seemed almost satisfied. Iwould like to know twhether the stock man still lives, and whether the dining- car men have gone into bankruptcy. An old country genticman, tne prominent features of whose attire were an old-style high standing fur maffler and a huge pair of - baffalo overshocs, became quite neryous and excited at what he supposed was & hot box, whicn he fear- ed would set the car on fire. The conductor explained to him that the hot box was nothing more than a register which admitted heat to the car. The explanation relieved the old man’s mind, and the closing of the register relicred bis feet, and, between the two, he seemed at ease. ‘The commereial tourist is on every train every day and cvery night. and he Is thic life of the train—as he s the life of trade.

Jar. RESUMPTION. Sherman vs. Kelley. Canton (0.) Repository. With reference to Judge Kelley's recent speeeh on resumption, in which that gentleman said that we have $700,000,000 to -redecm, with only 65,000,000 of rold to redeem it with, Sec- retary Sherman has written the following letter, which contains points worthy of atteution: Treasury DEPARTNENT, WAsiiNeTox, March 8, 1878 —DEAR Stz The extract which you quote from Kelley's specch is but a part of the diatribes which such men as Iclley have used to excite the pobular mind 2nd create a war between capital and iabor, The nmount of United States notes to be re- deomed s tess than_ $550,000,000, of shich more than 530,600,000 are constantly in the Treasury in some form. The §65,000,000 avuilable arc fos nearly $00,000,000, with some montns further to sccuraulate. The Silver bill in one respect makes resumption easier by broadening the basis of coin resumption. What is driving the people to panperism, etc., is the insane warfare upon capital, which destroys confidence and prevents prudent men from en barking in new enterprises.

Very truly yours, JOUN SUERMAN. Wilson J. Vance, Esq., Canton, O. Telegram to Cincinnati Commercial. WAsHINGTON, D. C., March 14.—Representa- tive Kelley in'an open letter to Secretary Shel man, in_reply to one of the latter’s to the ed- 1tor of the Canton Liepusitory, starts out by say- ing that though Sherman’s averments arc false and lis languize indecorous and vituperative, he deems it necessary to reply. He reiterates the statewent that with 365,000,000 it is ex- pected to redeem $700,020.000, and insists that this statement is not cxagecrated, and then says: 1n your next letter will you not let the conntry know of whom you spoke when von alluded 1o such men ns Kelleg? Was it, as tho public seem to undersiand, to the J32 members of the liouse of Kepresentatives with whom I voted for the re- cal of the Resumption act, and 10 the 195 mem- rs of that body,and the forty-six members of the Senate, with whom 1 vnted o pass the Silver bill, the President’s objection to the contrary notwith= standing? Ilns, *3r. Secretary.’ one brief year of cxperience in the executive branch of the Govern- ment sufliced to bring yoa to the dangerous con- clusion that Cougress is o bady hanging on the verge of the Government, and which might be climinated from our system with advantage to the cople, ordid yon mean to refer to the vest ma- Jority of the pople of the Cnited States who com- posed the constituencics of these almost three- fourths of the members of the popular branch of Congress? When next you refer to the diatribes I and such men as we lave used to_excite the popu- lar mind and create a war between capital and Inoor, I pray you be a hittle more specifc, and des- ignate some one occasion on which I bave attempt- cd to excite such a war. But let mo inguire whether you rezard me as having engaged in 8o unholy an undertaking, when in the summer of 1876, in compliance with written appeals from the Chief of the Administration, of which you are €0 influcntial 2 mewber, the then Governor of Ohio, and of the ilon. Charies Foster, 1 abandoned my own canvass as the nominee for Congress from the Fourth Districc of Pennsylvanin. and, yiclding to the solicitation of the Repub- lican State Committee of Ohio, placed my- eelf ot its disposal for n few speechess where, in the judgment of the Commitiee, they would be Jikely to do the most ood, except that two of them should be in the aietrict of my friend Fuster, who had dvised me thot it was very close, and_that my good offices might do something to- ward saving it. 1f you think I availed myself of that oceasion to breed strife berween labor and y sou to appeal to the people of tho Wown of Milan and the City of Sandusky, both of which are in Mr, Foster's district, and in both of which I addresscd large audiences in his behalf, with such effect that, after having passed about four days in the district, I left it with the assur- ance, réceived from scorcs of Repuolicans whose urpoge it had been to vote for Mr. Hudson, Mr. oster's competitor, that they would, on the strength of my rcpresentations, give my friend Foster another trial, and that, though the district had been regarded as doubtiul, they were confiaent it was now eafe not only for him, but for the Presi~ dential ticket. The monthiy debt statement issmed by vou on the tiret of the month ehowed but §65,219, 783 Rold, agmnst which there were no current coin ob: Tigations. How much of this 365,000,000 is book- keeping gold, orwhat the late Col. James Fisk spoke Of a8 phantom gold, consisting of conpon: puid and bonds called and exchanged which hay not gone into the books and heen canceled, I do not know, nor probably do sou. The Commattee on_ Banking and Currency of the ouee of Representatives is now engezed investi- mating the question, and when, after careful scrutiny of the facts. it shall muke its report, it the country does not. discover that your $J0,- 000,000 embraces less than §30,000,000 of me- tahe gold, it will be well for your reputation as a man and a ‘public ofiicer. : HELP THE PUBLIC LIBRARY. To the Editor of Tiie Tribune. CmicaGo, March 16.—Now that our City TFathers have settled upon the sum that they will give to the Public Library for this year, and this sum being insuflicient in more respects than one, I, as a patron of that npoble inatitu- tion, would sugzest that the Dircctors have o Jarge iron box made and placed in the main room, it to receive voluntary contributions of five cents and upward. Am poor myself, but when I met Mr. Wickersham this week could not help giving him a dollar for the benefit of what I know to be the next best educator to our public schools.
