An instance of the kind is the mission serv- ice of Rev. L. Onge, P.

Of this he writes that he encountered a worse enemy than the savage (deyeloped from his mode of life)and taking hold of him with the tenacity of death itself. With this en- emy he struggled very hard, which, liko the Tndian’s prejudice, he had to_grap- ple because it was violent, and, like his own will power over the savage—that which he emploged to conquer and sub- due—wns 1n its nature as overpowering as the influence he exerted on the savage mind., It penet rated with magical effects and made its permancut result.

Why do not young men marry as they did in the generation gone by? Mr. Editor, it is not, as you say, because of their inabil- ity to settle down to marvied life. think it is as you. say, but in another sense. V fow young men possess the ability to settlo down to the kind of home life which most girls expect to lead, The cxalted idea which girls have of how they should live in this fast age is enough to forever put to flight any stray thoughts of matrimony which may enter the mind of the average young man. Money is indeed at the bottom of the whole question. G young men more money and there will be more marriages. When I say give men - more money I refer to those who work, for if I am not mistaken itisin the ranks of the toilers that we find the least inclination to marry. A man must_earn a large salary to supporta in these d. If a man gets mar- ried . he must hire somebody to keep house for him. 1is is undeniable in ¢ majority of cases.

A Feoud Settled by u.rrlm New York Journal: A bitter feud of vearly fifty years' standing between & family of land, N, J.,and one of Cedar Grove is in a fair way of settle- ment through the elopement of a young member of each family. Jack Teliman, of lkm:lnn(l is the son of a wealthy farmer. He is tall and handsome, about twenty-two years old, is popular with the young men, and the girls consider him a great eatch. His fair bride was until Sunday night Miss Minnie Van Iderberg, the daughter of Jabez Van Iderberg, of Cedar Grove. She is about mineteen years old, of medium height, well educated, her form is perfect and her face as pretty as that of any girl within' a radius of 100 miles of her home. The Tellmansand Van Idenbergs have been on bad térms sinde way back in 1840, when Juck’s father and Minnie’s grandfather had a long and bitter law=< suit over a pieco of farm land, part of which was claimed by each. It was settled in a manner not satisfactory to both_parties, and since that time bad blood has existed between the families. On frequent occasions there have been serions fights between the young and middle-aged men of the families; in fact whenever the young men met they fought. Last summer Minnie Van Iderberg came to Roseland to visit.an old school- mate, Fannie Walker. One afternoon they went out on horsoback. After Im\[ an _hour’s ride they went toward the high blug at Deep lake, South Roscland. When near it Miss Van Iderberg’s horse shied at some object and ~\|\lhl\||l\ went over the bluff, throw- ing hisrider a distance of Lwcnty feet into the wate Jack Tellman, ‘who was approaching on lhorsecback with a friend named Charlie Kenworthy, saw the accident and putting the spurs to his horse dashed around the side of the bluff, dis- mounted and sprang into the lake. After a severe struggle he reached the shore h s Van Iderberg, She murmured “Saved!” “Saved!” and then lost consciousness. After lying apparently dead for a few minutes she revived, but when Miss Walker told her that she owed her life to a Tellman she swooned again. l'nmll\ she was taken home by Miss nd Mr. Kenworthy. Her par- informed of her little advent- ure in which one of their enemies had figured. They warned her not to have anything further to do with hira, She was but human, however, and an overlasting love sprang up in hor bosom for the man who had risfl\'cd his life to save her. She met him frequent quiet little place near the bluff which so nearly caused her death, the meetings was known only to Miss Walker and Mr. Kenworthy, but th familjes of Hm young lovers got wind of the state of affairs on Sunday and raised a great row.

Per: baps about the arallones docsn’t give her gavden pat Let us say some time next month, deavest.” A correspondent writes to the At- lanta Constitution from Chayton, Ga.: Your correspondent has recently hud the pleasure of interviewing a Mr. James H. Whiten, who has just re- turned from a thirty years’ stay in the wild west. His experience in frontier ife, which is full of Indian skirn ar hupts, 15 quite interesting; but the separation from his wife of a period of thirty years, and what led to their meeting, is the most interesting feature of his story. In January, 1857, Mr. Whiten was married to Miss Nancy Powler, a beau- tiful young lady who resided near West- minster, 8. C. Young Whiten was very ambitious to prepare for his wife a commodious home, beth being yery poor at the time of their marviage, He made up his mind totry his fortune in the west. The gold fever was spread- ing threugh this country at that time like a contagion, and Plke's Peak w: the objective point. So in the follow- ing spring, when winter'’s winds had given place to the breezes of sprin, and before the honeymoon had fairly waned, vows of everlasting devotion and fi\hmy were exchanged, and Mr, Whiten turned his face westward. After roughing 1t five years among desperadoes and Indians, and having gathered considerable muuufi he de- cided to return to his Nancy; but not so to be. The civil war was then in full blast, and, while passing through the state of Texas, Mv. Wilson wus called on for kis services and had to respond. During his termw mavy letters were writ: ten to the precious one, but no auvswer’ The fact of ever came. Through .an acquaintance he was informed thatttis wife had refu- geed to parts unknowdy In the soldiers’ camp, in the state of Kansas, the news of Lee's surrender mtl(«lu-d him. Being destitute of means oi. which to travel, and having learned thyaugh an effort to establish a communication that the-one was dead for whom it §¥as his pleasure to live, he returned touColorado, there to spend the balance of his day: in the solitude of fhe west. o twenty-two years, said sMr. Whiten, “'I wandered over the plgins and pra my thoughts ever cartfing me back 0 the place where I kissed her goodbye.” 1t seems that his griefinstead of rel {g, grew more poigndnt, In tho fall of 1887 he met an old friend, Joe Steel, in Montana. Mr. Steel told him it was very likely that his wife was still living; that he had a faint recollection of a marriage in an adjoining county of a Mr. Southern to a Mrs. Whiten, who had long since given up her former hus- band for dead, and that Southern was dead, so he was informed, and that the widow’s postoffice was Bast Mad- json, 8. C. Elated by - these glad tidings, Mr. Whiten directed threo let- ters to Fort Madison, one to Mrs. South- orn, one to Mrs., Whiten and one to Mr. —— Whiten, a supposed son of his. Eagerly did he wait for a reply, but none came. The letters remained in the post office until one day the post- master at that place was fixing to makd a legal disposition of them, when a countryman, Mr. John Latham, chanced to step in. The postmaster causally asked Latham if he knew any one by the name of Nancy Southern” or Nancy Whiten. Latham happened to be woll acquainted with the widow, and, by the request of the postmaster, carvied the letter to Mrs, Southern. She answered him at once, explaining her second marriage; that she heard he was dead, and expressed great anxiety to see him. Mr. W. at once took the train for West- minster, S. C.. having been, by her let- tor, mfmmcd that she lived at the same old place. Arriving at Westminster, he proceeded te the old country homu- stead, where the parting took place. Thore under the willow tree in the yard, where they parted thirty years Heforo, they met again. Time and trouble had, of conrse, left its impress on both. Said Mr. Whiten: ““Though the black curls she once wore were streaked with gray, and the snarkling eye was dimmed, and the tint of tho roso had left the cheek, yet she was as dear to me as ever. We are now living together as happily as when v partes in the spring of 1857, My son came. to see me last Christmas—the firit time I ever saw him—and we all had a jolly time. Backed Out at the Altar. There was a remarkable scene at an intended marringe at the house of a Irederickton, N. B., clergyman the other afternoon.

Thé ceremony had been commenced and the prospective bride said she would avcept the young man as her hushand. The minister be- gan to draw a picture of marriage that had proved to be unhappy.

Reed, in Attnta, Constitution, 1t was very dull at Cagtonboro during the summer of '64, 2 The village was :.muged on a small river i Florida leading to the gulf.and it was supposed to be ‘f place of some strategic importance. i For four years a smalliforce of feder- als had been endeavoribg at odd times to capture Cottonboro and a small force of confederates had succeeded in keep- ing them back. A hot Julysun was blazing down on Cottonboro and the streets were de- serted. Here and there in some shady nook might have been seen a few soldiers playing cards, and telling stories, but there was no other sign o life, Colonel Melton was pacing the side- walk in front of his beadguarters. He was the commander of the post, but he kad very little to do. There wasno fighting in Y‘ru-.pml and it was mot ne- sary to_keep the men under very strict discipline. The commander of the post surveyed the situation. He felt the deadening influence of the [ low tal sultry breath, “T must take a nap,” he emd, is nothing to be done here.” Just then he saw a cloud of dust in the distance, & mile or 8o away. “I will wait,”™ he remarked, may be trouble 1n that quarter.’ - The commander was right. In a very few minutes a number of cavalrymen rode in with a captured spy. “Shall we hang him or try asked the leader of the party. Colonel Melton was about to give an offhand reply, when his eyes fell upon the face of the He saw o handsomé youth covered with dust, and bearitig the marks of travel aed expo- sur summer heat, and gasped for “there “there him?” .eave him to me,” said the colonel quickly, “I will question him pri- vately.” ‘When the prisoner was alone with the commander of the post the latter said: “Clara, I pengfrated your disguise nb a glance. How is it that you are here?” The prisoner gave a captious nod, sm‘h as only a woman could give. “John Melton,” she replied, “I am sorry to-look upon your hated face again.” **But you are in 1rm|||ln," answered the commander grayely, “and I must see you out of it. “f scorn your help!” cried the dis- guised spy. **You deserted me after I had beun a faithful wife for years, and you left me to face the world and earn my own living. My talents found em- plnymont down this way as a spy, and I wenL into the business with niuh knowl- ;fz. of the consequences. You may ,your men to take me out and shoot, me,” “I cannot do that,” replied the com- mander, “nor can I u‘lu you to be tried. 1f you are held for trial you will be searched by a crowd of rude soldievs. My wife must not be subjected to such indignities.” “Your wifel” sneered thespy. “What did you care for her when you ran away from her?” The colonel shivered, and then 'ooked straight into the woman’s e “I had my reasons,” he said, “*and I have never regretted my action. I wish you were dead, but i don’t propose to have a hand in heaping disgrace upon you.” The woman’s eyes fell, but in a mo- ment she recovered herself. “Then, John Melton,” she said, “Iam safo.” “‘You are,” answered the commander of the post; ‘‘not a hair of your head will be harmed.” He spoke with an air of authority,and the woman looked at him with a newly kindled interest in her eyes. ‘4Jobn,” she smd softly. “None of that,” responded the col- onel. **When I lcfh you, it was for good and all. I must gét you out of this scrape, but you must never cross my path again.” “Bubt what are you going to do?” asked tho spy. ‘‘Leave it to me,” said the colonel, Then he called jn a couple of soldiers and 10l them £ binl the spy’s hands. his feet unbound,” said the Iam going to make the fel- > a walk with me.” “How is that, colonel,” inquired Cap- tain Dallas. “A secret of state,’ colonel, “it is the - only way to get it, will walk with him to the p! where he has buried his “Well, colonel, I ? whispered the cd the captain. as hi ra tied, it is safe.” In the course of a few moments tho commander of the post started off to the woods with his prisoner. annlo will come back by him- id a soldier to a comrade, with asignificant wink.
