A case .B point bas come under ous observation which Bas some considerable romance about it, aad may interest & few of our readers especiaily of the fair sex. A few montbs ago a young lady of prepos- sessing Sppearance made her entree into the fashionable circles of Saginaw, Michigan. She WS possessed of beauty. and rumor said Was possessed of houses and lands and green- backs. Switors flocked around her like bees | sFound & fragrant flower, aud one after another j of the young Michiganders p’ , was re- | jected, and went away disconsolate. Two | suitors, however, possessing braver hearts, re- fused to be daunted by the previous ill-fortane of their associates, snd made love to the fair one assiduously. Their importunities were at last rewarded, and they went bome with the full consciousness that they possessed the fair herself engaged to be married to two young men, with the law against bigamy staring her fall in the face. She tried in vain to pick a quarrel with one of them. They were both the mest agreeable of men, refusing to take um- brage a: (be most exacting of her demands. At lust the condition of affairs became unen durable. and she resolved to rid herself of one of ber lovers; which one to discard she could pot tell, for she loved them both alike. She therefore left it entirely to the gallantry of tbe levers. She told one of them that she could pot marry him, and gave reasons. He yery gallantly gave up all claim to his rival. Butthe young Indy did not know her own heart, for she seom sent for bim again, and vowed that bim ais did she love, and him only weuld she wed. So No. two was cast adrift, and the first-mentioned luxuriated in the smnifles of bis adored one. Preparations for the nuptials commenced in earnest, the young Micbigander disbursing freely from his purse to defray the expenses of the occasion. But lover No. two, who, by the way, is a young Milwaukeean, threw bimself into the maiden spirit. her lover to wait till ten @elock for her final decision. This he reluc- tantly consented 'o do, using at the same time his utmost endeavors to convince her that ducy and inclination should prompt her to fulfil her yows. She at last gave 2 renewed promise to be bis on the morrow, and he went home hap- Tine had gone but a few minutes when s ring came to the door. The young lady went to answer it, when, bebold, it was the young Pepresentative from the «Cream City.” He extended one hand fora friendly greeting— she extended both arms and te!l—upon nis torem.

Several colors are already produced. and the invention is being extended to others. Any | article starebed with this preparation is con pletely colorea by it, but as the dye readily Washes out, the garment that was pink to-day may be made green to-morrow, and so on. This starch 1s of great use for those bright but treacherously colored musiins that are very costly, but, as their colors wash out, con- tinvally perpiex their owners. Ifthe pattera bas been green. starch ofthat color is used, and the green remains. and the same is true as any other color. To have the means always at band, not only of keeping colors tast, but also of varying them day by day, must be invalua- bie to ladies. Fixances A —Iitis announced in the Paris Moniteur that’ “monetary union” has been concluded between France, Belgium, Italy and Switzeriand, ani is to remain in feree until Janvary ist, 1580.

After I-S(the treaty is to continne in force upless either of the contracting Powers give notice for its termination.

A STORY oF a SENTINEL.—A story is told of & Prussian sentinel statione: on the steeple at Troppa nd lett behind there when his com- pany retreated. The citizens attempted to take him prisoner, but the Prussian easily de- fended with his bayonet the narrow winding stair by which alone access could be gained to the steeple. They then decided on reducing him by tamine, but the Prussian having witn bim a good supply of cartridges, announced that unless he was regularly and well fed, he would shoot every one who passed in the streets around the church. The good soldier thus contrived to maintain bis position for two days. when Troppan was reoccupied by the Prussians and he was relieved. A Youne He!
