Joseph Parker's lllsa|i|ieaiancc

Mr. Joseph Parker, ohlefit son of Capt.II. B. I'arker, of the "Km Bird." andwell known to the people of iliis com-munity as a druggist, left his homo onThursday morning, informing his familythat he was going tti New York to pur-liaxe merchandise. Not ap|H'ariug for

several ihiys his father waiti*tl ti|H>n themrties wttli whom lie had been nceuB

ttimed to deal, and ascertained that hehad not been HCMI by them. On Mon-hiy evening a li'tter was received fromlim, postmarked at Rochester, NewYork, in which lie stated that lie hadel't the town, and that he tlitl not ex-pect (o return.

Mr. l'ltrker is about forty yenrs of age,and has been marrii'd nearly seventeenyears. Several years ago he kept thebar on the steamer " Sea Uirtl,"' tif whichlis father was captain. ik*ing dissutis-

lietl with his business he sold it out, andshortly after experienced religion andlii'caine a member of the Presbyterian,'hurcli. Hi! then purchased a drugstore m Bristol, Pennsylvania, and after'outimiing the business for some time,io!d out and removed to Jamaica, I,ongIsland. After living there a short time'ie returned to lied Bunk, and again en-gaged in the drug business on the cornerof White and Broad streets.

It is said that he employed n younglurried woman as a servant ; that dtir-ig last winter his wife went on a visit

toher mother, at Lynn, Massachusetts,and spent m'veriil months; and thatutter Mrs. Parker's return he exhibitedsigns of incompatibility, which occa-sioned his departure. It ia furtheritated that the young woman left thesame day on an earlier train for NewYork, which fnct has been the occasion>l many rumors.

Shortly before he left town Mr. Parkerborrowed from his father the sum ofIfo(K), giving us security a chattel mort-gage on his stuck of goods. On Tuesday

fternnon of this week Sheriff Allenisited our town. He cnlled ujKin Mrs.

Purkcr with » writ, and levied upon thegoods and chattels of Mr. Parker as anabsconding debtor, and closed the store.

The people of Red Bank are greatlyincensed ami indignant on account of-Ir. Parker's treatment of his wife and

children.> Captain Parker, who has beenlong known anil highly esteemed by thepeople of this county, lias the sympa-thy of his many friends.

The Iron Fence r<ir tlie Schoiillot.

At a specinl school election held lastspring, a tax of if/iO was voted for (lieerection of un iron fence in front of thedowntown school building. Tliut wasnearly a year ago nnd still the same oldtuiitble-ilown wooden railing, the merestiipology for it fence, is permitted to standand disgrace the town. Tho money haslieen collected and the fence should havebeen erected long ago. The trustees haveno right to apply this money in any way•xcept fur the building of this fence, andt in their duty to see that it is so used.I would like to ask if it Is still in tbelands of tbe collecUir, anil if it is, why:here has been so much ileluy ill regard:o this mutter.

An Unexpected Witness,

George Rankin and family were nttheir summer residence in Berkton. Itwas a warm Juneevcnini;, nnd Mr. Run-kin was sitting on the piazza when hismuil was handed to him. It was soseldom that ho received any communi-cation of importance not contained inbis daily letter from his business m:r.i-agor in the city, that, after reading > hatepistle, he turned to the opening of theother envelopes with no expectation offinding anything more interesting thana circular, or a statement of some loenlmarket. His surprise and interest weretherefore considerable when he openedthe following letter:

Mr DEAR RANKIN—To-day for thefirst time infiltcen years I have heardof you. I learn tliat you have passedyour summers for tlie last few years in asecluded little village—a paradise ofquictnes:,, called Berkton. I also hearthat in your little hamlet there is achurch but no minister. My friendjwhen we were " churns," you could notbelieve that I would ever be solemnenough to become a preacher. Iiut apreacher I am, although at present with-out a charge. 1 have been offered a po-sition in your city, with large salary.For a certain reason, which I shall notmention, I cannot accept the offer. Idesire to labor in the Master's service aslong as 1 live, but I am compelled towork in some quiet section of his ficH.May I ask you to present my name asthat of a candidate for the vacant pul -pit in your neighborhoodP Sincerelyyours, JOHN RAYMOND.

It is doubtful if there had been foyears in the feelings of George Rankinanything 90 near to sentimentalise asthere was during, and lor some timeafter, the reading of that letter.

"So ho really became a minister,said lie, to himself, as lie folded up theletter aid put it in his pocket. For :inhour ho forgot to turn to his paper, th<memories of those college days was alat once so absorbing.

There was very little that Rankinknew about liiymond, though for a yourat college, it so happened the two liarshared a room; they were very gooifriends, though by no means very in! imate. They were unlike in "many respecta. The former cared little fursociety; the latter was loo! cd uponeven then, as quite a society man. Ray-mond's father was dead. His last re-quest was that hia son become, likehim.ti minister. Soon after his fatherdied, leaving barely property enough tisupport his mother and oducate liiniyoung Raymond cume into possess ioiof considerable wealth, by thedeecaseoan uncle. From tliat time he was ugratify his taste for elegant attire, pic-tures and books; and to kcop a teamThough pjsses3ing many good qualities,Rankin could remember but ono tilingin the life of his schoolmate that seemedpositively religious, and that was hisinvariable custom of offering a mornintand evening prayer. A silent prayerand not unfrequently when offering itwas he a Ionic while on his kneea. TIIHapparently sinoere act of devotion madesome impression upon Rankin, but jessthan it might have done perhaps If otheralleged acts in Raymond's life had notseemed so strangely inconsistent with it.If certain impressions that prevailedamong collegians at that time wero cor-rect, his course of l.'fe in one respect, inparticular, was altogether inconsistentwith such a lifo as that Sulemn pructictimplied he led. But as has been eaidthere waB very little that Rankin reallyknew about his room-mate. He him-self had discovered no vice in him; nndthoir friendship was not of the kind tliatled them to make confessions to eachother. Yet he had come to think thatthe opinion which existed to somo ex-tent, that in the fashionablo circleswhich Raymond frequented, lie wasgiven to an excessive use of wine, wasprobably correct. It wns said that solic-ited by. one of the fair BCX, whosebeauty and accomplishments the timiof many was spent in praising, a daugh.ter of one of the wealthiest residentsof the town, he could not decline. Andit was rumored that he had become i •fatnatcd with this young woman. Ran-kin once saw her portrait on the tablein their room, where Raymond had in-advertently dropped it.

V After leaving college and enteringupon an active business career, Rankinceased to think much about his friend,and at length quittrforgot him. Calledto mind again by the application hehad made, which vaguely hinted atsomo mystery in his life, Raymondseemed more of an enigma than ever toRankin; and more interesting. BtiU,Bsmuoh as RanUn desired to seethenow "ttev." John Raymond, and learnmore about him, at first he had doubtedas whether it would be right and safeto recommend him as a pastor to thepeople of Berkton. These doubts, how-ever, departed -after the matter hadtested upon his mind for a few days;owing, In a good measure, to thefaotlwt for somo time after that lettercame, a vision of Raymond inthesobereraspects of his college life waa constantlybefore him. And then the letter waa anappeal thathe could not disregardsread-inir> between the lines he camfrto the

,t>Ie fltreoKth in the Eev. John Ray-uonL Then b« submitted -that gentle-ianfc applicsttioM to some of the officersif the-little cliureh of the place.' TheDfficare decided to permit the applicantto preSch two Sabbaths on trial.

How Ion it would have been beforehe bell of that church would againave been heard, calling the people of

Berkton to worship, if a ministei hadnot offered himself, is uncertain Thehumble building had been so longclosed and neglected already that cob-webs and mold were seen inside of it,and out-lde briars and small treeshalf hid tlie lower windows, whilegrass was growing in the path-Way to the door. And., yet withinsifcht of the old-fashioned structurethere were a score of new cottages andmore stately dwellings, owned by thepeople from the city who spent thewarmer months in Berkton. Therewere signs of thrift in everything exceptthe church. The tavern even haJspruced up while the church was closed,and was able to make quite a respect-able appearance among the stylishdwellings of the village. But beforethe first Sunday of tiic two that were tosettle whether or not the Rev. JohnRaymond was to be called to preach inBerkton came, the church receivedquitea thorough dusting and brushing inside;and the brush and weeds around it werecleared away.

The audience that awaited the newminister, and that filled the house thatfirst Sabbath mornine was a motley one,made up of city and country people.There were those in the height ot fash-ion as to dress; and there were manywho had worn the same dress, or bon-net, or coat, for a quarter of a century,and were not aware that their garmentswere out of fashion until they were wornout.

As the Roy. John Raymond came inand took 11 is seat upon the ancient-looking pofa back of the pulpit, twotilings in hia personal appearance werenoticed; these were an indcscribah.esadness in hia handsome face, and hishair, which was very gray for a man lessthan forty. His sermon was a powrfulone; the impreiSHion left upon tlie mindsof nearly all his hearers was favorable.After ho had breached two Sabbaths,he was asked to settle over the churcli.t was not necessary for, George Rankin.0 say anything in his fnvor to securelie plate tor him, and lie did not; but

his failure to do so utn not owing to itsnot being neeasBary, but to the fact thatw'.'Cii hosaw Raymond enter the churcli;lie thought lie discovered | n that per-son :s melancholy face and his somewhatsunken ey"eg,unniistn\al)!(! evidences thathe was a victim to that appetite which,if rumors hud been true, tie, was doini;.11 lie could to lix within himself dur-

ing the last year of his college life. ButRankin, like nil the rest, became a greatulmirer of the eloquent preacher; andlompcllcd nfler a while to dismiss fromhis mind what he came to consider hisiroundless feAi'S. Where before theabbuth hud been looked upon 113 a lire-

some, dull day, by the fashionable puo-pl - of Berkton, it n i now thought tobe almost equal to any of the otlier sixdays. To tlio old inhabitants of thetown the sermon en Sunday was a greattreat.

If the Rev. Mr. Raymond was notvery much in earnest he succeeded ingiving the impression that ho was; andllie result wus an increased voligioua in-terest among all classes. Persons thatHad never or seldom been to churcli be-•ame regular attendants. The churclibecame, uncomfortably full, and therewas some talk of a new building,'huich mntters had now come to the

front in Bsrkton.And yet, though us a preacher Mr.

Raymond was all tUnt could be desired,there was some dissatisfaction at lliestand he had taken In regard to a cer-tain matter. When he accepted tlmcall to settle in Berltton, he stated Unitliia ciri'umstiinecs wore such as to makeit impossible for him to call upon hiparishioners or receive callers at hihome. Dissatisfaction at this exitite,among liolh the old inhabitants of llied-icc and the sojourners from the city.1. seemed a strange thing to the former

lliiitthi! minister should not visit them,11111I to the latter thtit ho forbade themvisiting him. Curiosity sprung •up :nto the cause of such a remarkable stuU;of things. And that curiosity was notlessened by tha fuct that, instead ofoecUDying llie parsonage—a small honsenear the church—the new minister hadrented a large 'mansion that was builthy a once wealthy gentleman who, bytlie reverses ol fortune, was at presentunable to keep It up himself. It would•iccm 118 though a person who wns ableto live in sucli aplacemightbenr the bur-den of entertaining at le'ist those of his1'iu'isli who tell disposed to call uponlii 111. No one, however, attributed theeouise of the pastor to an unwillingnessto bear the expensn of entertaining, forthough he did ask fur salary all hecould get, it was known that lie gave-fur the benefit of HIK church and in waysof charity us much as he received forhia services. It was out of the questionalso to accuse him ot pride, lor althoughalways dignified he was always humble.Diflidcnee had nothing to do with thestand he had taken. He was self-pos-sessed and agreeable, and yet grave.Hi! isolated himself to thu extent men-tioned, and neither gave nor showedany reason for doing so. He did do asmuch us consent to sue all whodesiiedto ask advice of him, immediately afterthe service on Sunday, and a momentafter tho Thursday evening meeting. Ay g gman so interesting, and about whom solittle was known, and so little could befound out, is sure to be talked aboutand watched. It was soon discoveredthat the lights In his house on the hill-side, seen through the trees from thevillage, were often burning all night;another mysterious circumstance con-nected with this gentleman. Did hefind it necessary to study and write allnight to prepare for the Sabbath? ordid he have strange visitors who CM meand went in the darkness of the nightP

A year paused away, and nothing newcame to light concerning him. Butwhat for n season had been simplecuriosity was now suspicion—a fearthat something must be wrong, basedupon the profound secrecy in whioh thepastor's domestic affairs wera kept, andthe change that was apparent in hislooks and actions. His hair had grownwhiter, his eyes more sunken, the linesupon his face deeper; and there was nlook in his countenance that n personnvght have who was almost at thepoint where hope is lost. This changeimpressed no one so much as it didGeorge Rankiti on his return to Berktonin June to spend the summer. It be-carao the burden of his thought. Hewas sure that the pastor was waging afearful warfare with some great evil.Ho could not doubt what that evil was;and he felt that it was a contest inwhich the minister was losing ground,and that the time of his utter defeatand fall was near. His conscience con-demned him for keeping back at firstwhat ho had known of Raymond.He thought it his duty to go to the offi-cers of the church nt once and tellthem what he knew and what he fearedof the man who stood over them inholy things, and ho did it. By Sundaythe secret was generally known. Never-theless, the congregation that gatherecwhile the tolling of the hell sbundecout through the beautiful valley andover the bill of Berkton to hear the pop-War' preach.er,,was as large as ever.Doubtless1 many who were there hadhibre ouriotlty, than ever to hoar him.And many, too, felt genuine pity for ttw

' iled to eomjfctlmt mjoirning.'Ing a little while Unpeople

_, 'h;'BJiri oubide, far sometime after' the congregation had brokenup, there were many little groups ofpersons discussing in quiet and solemntones tha melancholy fate of their tal-ented preacher/- The day'passed and a dark night sot

in. That night was not soon foi'KotU'nby the residents of Berklon. The" newsthat flow through the village the nextmorning was* of tin; most startlingnature. It was that a woman had beenfound at about midnight near the pas-tor's house in an unconscious state, witha knife driven into her body near herheart. The two physicians ;>f the placewere eummorcd to attend her, andthough she still lived they pronouncedher wound probably fatal. At the timeshe wns found the minister's where-abouts was not known. About an hourlater he walked into the room wherethe still unconscious woman lay. Hehad a haggard look, and acted, like 11person not fully conscious of what wasgoing on. lie aikwl no questions, nndmade no remarks; but preserved a per-fect silence through the remainder ofthe night. What his thoughts were ushe stood for a long while at a time bythe side of tlie bed, and gazed at thefigure lying up-n it; or when ho pacedback and forth in trie corridor outsidethe chamber door, no one could tell.The knife thut linil been used lor tliedreadful deed was identified by the ser-vants as one which h:ul sometimes lainon Mr. Raymond's desk in his library,nnd was al other times carried by him.The country . for miles around wassearched, but nr> one was found whow:w suspected of I he crime. In the lightof the events of jthe previous year, andof present ciiv.mistnnees, tho people 01Berkton soon discerned who must havebeen the perpetrator of the awful net.They came to the conclusion that theRev. John Raymond, while laboringunder some dark delusion, caused by 11long indulgence in tliat habit which itwas now considered proved had mas-tered him, hud committed this crime.The once popular preacher became intheir eyes n fiend. There was n deter-mination that justice should certainlyand speedily take its course. At the sug-gestion cl some ot the citizeus, the sus-pected man was taken into custody byhe officers of the law, and hurried toail, to wait the result of the woman's

injuries. Tho arrest seemed a great sur-prise to Raymond, When the officerscalled at his house, and in tlic libraryinformed him of their intention, he pre-tended to think it was all liko a horriddream.

"Is it possible," lie asked, "that Iam suspected ,of murdering my will1?"Then after a moment's pause be said:*' If I must gn and ieave her, permit meto remain until an old family physician,whom I have sent lor, :md whom I ex-pect every moment, arrives."

The oflicer.s waited, and in a shorttime thi1 nhjftivinn nunc, :i stranger toill in ISerkton outside of Mr. Raymond'sKiusehold, He rame in n, carriage o

lli'j piistor's, and the horse showed heind been driven very hard and a lonirdistance. Raymond wus not permittedto see the new-comer alone. At his re-quest one of the other doctors wnsculled in and introduced to the stranger.Raymond called the latter Dr. WaliTen,and stated lie had In en his mcilic.il ad-viser for years; and that he wished himto take charge of the present case, whilebe hoped tlie other doctors would givellieir aid und counsel. And then aslie turned to lollow tlie officers away,lie ri'marki'd in a low tone:

"Dr. Warden, levcal no secret thaiyou know."

There was general satisfaction inBerkton that Raymond wits lodged injail. And there was also n p'.iu'Vu] ex-pectation for days of li(;aring th-at In*wife waa dead. The sympathy for thelatter, of who3e existence up to tl'ulninhtnoone in the place had dreamed,was as universal us the abhorrencein which her husband was at that limeheld.

The announcement of Mrs. Raymond'sdeath, so constantly looked for, did n'ileome. For several weeks she hoveredbiHween life and death, and then crewbetter. The villa.ro doctor ceased toattend upon her. And as though llieiniunclioq of tlie Rev. John Raymond toDr. Wnlden was meant for them also, toall who questioned them concerning theminister's private affairs they weredumb. While people were wonderingnt this silence on the partof these medi-cal nien.it *vas found out that Raymondw:is at liberty and at, lioine. Tlio onlyexplanation th.it could be found for hidl)i;in^ free was that somehow the runtter had been privaielv settled, and thecourt had ordered li is release. Therewere great indignation nnd intense ex-citement. If Raymond had venturedout among nun he might have beenseverely handled. But lie followed hisoiil custom and remained at home.How, men asked, could such a gravematter be settled without n trialP Atrial it was determined there should be.Thecou! t woulil not do its duty, Hit;church musl not fail to do its down.

Raymond was at onee summoned I"appear betorcn. "council"ot the churclito answer certain charges. The trialcame off in tbe church, and was—aslong as it lasted—public. In his " bestdays" tho Rev. John Raymond nevermet a larger assembly there than ho nowencountered on this, one of li is " worstdnys." Hfl was accused of intemper-ance, and of making-it murderous as-sault. To be-guilty of either of tlieacunfitted him for t'io ministry, in sup-port of tho lirst charge, George Rank?nwas areluctant witness. He testified as toRaymond's habits ntcollege; and in an-swer to" aquestion, stated that he hadfelt since Raymond had become the pas-tor there that ho was on intemperateman. Though loath to say as much,when a3ked at such n. time he must tellthe truth. There were enough to testifyas to the pastor's singular customs andmanners while lie had been in Berkton.One member of the council contendedthat the blenched hair nnd sunken eyesof tho accused wero strong evidence ofhis dissipation.

To sustain the last and gravest accu-sation, one ofthebrethern simply ntatedwhat was universally believed to be thofacts as lo the cruel and almost fatal as-sault upon Mrs. Raymond. The churchclosed the present: tion of its case. Per-haps the majority of the assembly wereno moro certain of the minister's guiltafter hearing the cwtcTIcUagainst himthan before. They had no doubts aboutit when they camointo the church; itwas thought that Raymond would makea great speech In defense, of himself. Alleyes wore riveted upon him, as with apale face re arose to answer tbo ohurgesbrought against him. Instead ol a longdefense, he mode a very briel ono.

"Brethren,"said he, "before. God, Isolemnly affirm that, since I have, beenthe pastor of this church, I have neverbeen intemperate; nnd that I havenever made an assault upon any person.I speak the truth, but I have no witnessto testify in my behalf. Men may haveinferred from my manner heretoforethat Borne dark cloud overshadowed mylife, and one has, but now, thank Goof,that cloud has disappeared. Brethren,.1 believe I am called to preach the gos-pel. Permit me, I beseech you, to con-tinue my work here, and make onlythis demand of me, that, If henceforthmy conduct shall seem unbecoming apastor, nhd these members of the ohurnh«o informme, I shall resign my pastor-'dt» at once 1 and lam eonldtnt you wi>

to regain your respect aaA ikffeotton.The dead silence that reigned when

the pastor had closed and letujtted hit,: .chalk mark i.h pator had closd and lsujne !_ _,.seat, was in a moment disturb^!, by the,rustling of a dress ou_ihe stairs thatled from the vestry up to the audienceroom. A person ascending these stairswould, on reaching the top, come intoview of those seated in church, as thescats face the stairs. The chairman ofthe council arose, but b"efore~he couldoffer what he had to say, there catneinto the presence of the assembly a ladyveiled and elegantly dressed. Steppingto a place in front of the men who con-stituted the council, she threw back h.rveil, disclosing a race which, though itbore the marks of disease or indulgence,was very beautiful. It was a facewhose portrait George Rankin remem-bered to have seen.

1 am here," was the quiet reply, "asa witness for the defense. My husbandwould not summon me, and I come to»ive voluntary testimony In his favor.John, you must allow me to speak."

The stranger—for she was such tonearly every one in the place—then ad-dressed the council as follows:

" Gentlemen, you misjudge as noble aman as ever lived. The charge of in-temperance you have made against himslinuld have been mode against hiswife. The blow tlint nearly ended theearthly existence of. that miserable wife,that you accuse him of giving, was ad-ministered by her own hand. I standas a witness of his innocence. And notonly that, but, as I tru9t, a redeemed. oul saved by the entreaties, ministra-tions and prayers of my husband, whosepatience und kindness have known nolimit."

A new church has been built in Berk-ton, and the much loved pastor, theRev. John Raymond, preaches to nlarger congregation than the old build-ing could hold. The pastor's wife liasas warm a place in the hearts of the peo-ple as her husband; and is considered avery earnest Christian woman. It must,however, bo owned that there are manywho believe sho is the possessor of still.•mother important secret of knowinghow to bo the most charming womanthat Berkton has ever known.—Spring-field Itepublvxm.

A New Cereal.It is stated on the authority of the

Kansas State board of agriculture, tliata cereal new to that locality will growon the arid plains of tho West withoutirrigation. The grain is variously called" pampas ricel" " rice corr," and"Egyptian corn," and is thought tohave sprang from seed brought to theUnited States by tho Monnonites, whocrime from Southern Russia. The ker-nels grow in a tuft like that on the top ofsorghum. Each one is something smallerann rounder than a grain of wheat, and isinclosed in a " shuck " or independentcapsule. Tlio berry can be eaten groundinto flour or cracked like wheat, orwhole liko rice, or used generally likeany other cereal. The moal resemblesthat of Indian corn.'and in color is intermediate between the yellow andwhite varieties. A chemical analysisshows that its percentage of starch, fat,dextrine and sugar, wlitch producehc-.it and fat in the ntiimal organi-zation, compares favorably with thatof Indian corn, wheat, rye andoats; and in its contents of flesh-form-ing albuminoids it surpasses all Indiancorns, and ranks with wheat, 1 ye andoats. The small percentage of cellulose,or nearly non-nutritious tiber, is re-markable. The staik makes as goodfodder us corn docs, and a few neveswill furnish a family with fuel for awinter—;i consideration of the first Im-portance in that nearly treeless coun! ry.All this signifies little in comparisonwith its powers to resist drought, and••us t,i that an example, one ol a ureiitmany attested by the signaturesof practical, well known farmers,may be givon. Forty acres of turned-over sod, which had not been wet withrain for eight months, were plantedwith two or thiec grains,deposited witha seed planter, something more than 11toot apart. Tlierc was no rain lor fivewi'iiks after planting, yet tlie corn ger-minated. After it was fairly started, iliahot blast3, from the Llano Ks-tiicauo blew over it, but it grewright along, although grass andKiirden-truck beside it were fairlyburned up. U stood the rains equallywell, and finally it yielded sixty B'lpound bushels to the acre. It is more-over, worm and grasshopper proof.The board of agriculture prints 11 massof letters which place these tacts be-yond question, and their signifi-cance U of the first importance.From New Mexico to tho British linethere arc tens ol thousands of equa.roiniIns—500.000,000 acres according to areliable estimate—which it was thoughtnothing hut an expensive system of ar-tesian wclis could reclaim to any betteruse than pasturage, and now comes thisAiriuan plant to furnish food and fuelto this vast country, besides cropB forexport, whose value it may yet be im-possible to express in nine figures.

The master of theworkhouse, where the girl wassentafterMiss Scott's arrest, testified that sheweighed only thirty-five pounds whentaken there, and in eight days increasedeight pounds in weight. She was notyet fit to give evidence. Then MissScott, who had given bail in $250, drovehome in a cab, folio wed by a mob, whichgathered around and threatened thehouse, until dispersed by the police.

A curious experiment in "railroad-ing" was tried in California recently.It was a new, single-track road. Thetemporary track was 900 feet long, thetic3 being fence-posts, on which thetrack was nailed with tenpenny sails.Theens'ne, loaded withceal and water,weighed nine and one-half tons. Tlierails are of wood, and the wheels bi'oailand flat, being sixtcon inches on theface. The cars are hunfi within threeinches of the track. The engine andloaded car attached, weighing in alltwenty-five tons, went rapidly up n2(H)foot grade, making excellent time.It is claimed that the wear and tenr isno1 such as might be expected, and thattin immense gaining in freights can homade by building these roads, whichcost hut little for construction.

Within the last few years there liasbeen a great decrease in the flax andlinen trade of Great Britain. Tlie acre-age planted with flax has fallen off 0,885acres since 1871. In that year therewere some 500 factories engaged in themanufacture of linens in Englai.d,Scotland and Ireland. This numberwas reduced to 400 in 1878. The num-ber of spindles was reduced during thesame time from 1,558.335 to 1,284.7fifi,tmd Die number ot operatives from 124,-772 to 108 808. The decline in the linenbusiness is attributable to the fallingoffof the foreign demand. The export oftlio manufactured linens wtx« redueodliom 220.407,476 yards in 1871 to 177.-776,527 yards in 1878,while during tlicsame period the exportation 5f linen«rns full from 36,235,625 pounds to 19,-

The English have within recent yearsadopted the secret ballot as the legalmethod of voting.\» Formerly eachelector had to announce openly forwhom he voted. But this was found togive scope to intimidation and threat,on the part of landlords and "bosses,"and the ballot was adopted.

The English system of ballot, too, ismuch more strict,than ours. The votermust go into li'rodm by himself, put hisballot in'ftn'envelope" and'seaMt,'and'thus deliver it into the box.

An Overworked People.

Among other tilings said by WilliamWaller Phelps.nt a meeting of physiciansnd surgeons not long since, the follow-ng will bear re-reading more thanmen:

We are a nation without contentment,without rest, without happiness. In aeverish race, we pass from tho cradle to,ho frravc—successful men, to whom lifes a failure. Our boys leave the uni-versity, when English boys leave theirchool. Ourmorchants leave thiir trade,etiring to some more dignified or hon-

orable work, as they believe jt, at an agewhen tlio Gorman merchant first feelshe master of his trade. We nre always

anticipating the future, forcing the taskof a whole life into part. Worse, weare not content with doing a year'swork in a month in our culling, but wemust do enough in all other callings towin distinction there. In other lands itis enough to be a lawyer, physician,clergyman, merchant., .Here we arc no-bodies unless'we ; fill the sphere of allhuman occupations. Ono must be &statesman, and know political science,as If. already In office. He must be anonitorraud ready torpersu'ade'and.in-truct-—a wit to-Bhine at'the dinner-

table—a litcrateur, a critic! There istoo much human nature in man for thisto mean anything except a discontentedlifn and a premature denth. And theremedy? Correct public opinion. Wemust'honor the man who faithfullydoes his task, whatever it is. Not thetn-k, but, the faithfulness with which itis adner-mhst 'be the! ineosuro-of/ thehonor. Then men will be content withtheir father's trade. This will give usthat family association which is a surepledge of good conduct and patrioticove. Thiawillgivous, too, that tradi-

tional aptitude wnich alono gives treatmechanical excellence. It wi 11 not be abad time for American, manufactureswhen we find stamped on them whatMr. Grins finds on Japanese bronzes—"Done by the ninth bronzer in thisfamily.'!' Theunjenwillkoep the occu-pation of their youth for their ago, andlaving loisure.will build tho founda-tions broad enough to withstand bank-ruptoy. Then men will seek excellencein their callings. Then men .will alter-,nate labor with rost, and obo? the'de-mand of nature. ' %,;>..'>.,••.,•

The boy went. on all-fours,and when the trooper tried to catch himhe ran as fast as the whelps and kept upwith the old one.

Ho rejected cooked meat withdisgust, but delighted in raw flcBli andbones, putting them Under his pawslike a dog. They tried to make himspeak, but could get nothing from himbut an angry growl or snarl. Anotherinstance is quoted as having occurred atCliupru. A Hindoo father and motherwent out to cut their crop in March,1S43. The woman had with her a littloboy, who lately had been severelyburned on the left "knee< While theparents were at work the child was car-ried off by a woli. Some years after-ward a wolf with: three bubs was seenabout ten miles from Chupra followedby a boy. The boy, alter much resist-ance, was caught and recognized by thomark of the burn on the left knee. Hecould-eat nothing but. raw flesh, andcould never be brought to speak. Heused to mutter and, snarl, but neverarticulated distinctly. The pans of bisknees and the points of his elbows hadbecome horny from going on all-fourswith the wolves. In November, 1850,this boy escaped again and disappearedinto I lie jungle.

City, Montana, says: One of these recentlocal tragedies which is likely to becomepermanently woven into tbo woof ol ourvalley history,,.is deserving of recital.Two wbitamen, engaged in trapping onthe Mizpah crpek, a confluent of Powderriver, were suddenly confronted by aparty of t<ix or eight Indians. One oftho men was an "old timer" in Montana,rejoicing in tho title of "Catfish Snndy."The other was his "pardner" in thetrapping venture, and his name has es-caped my recollection. According toestablished custom in like cases, thewhites waved their hands to the Indiansto Indicate that they must not approachtoo closely. Two of the savages there-upon, laid aside their rifles and knives,and holding their hands above theirlie::ds to show that they wero unarmed,drew up to the trappers, the remainderof the party looking on silently at a r.in-tanoc. Sandy, who is a veteran Indianlighter, remained on bis guard notwith-standing this parade of pacific purpose,nml held a firm grasp upon his rifle.Suddenly he was enveloped in the blan-ket, of the foremost savage, -who at-t'-mptpd to follow up the surprise bythrowing him (p the ground, liut thelatter Imd reckoned without his host.With a powerful effort Sandy threw hisIi:il I-naked an tagonist from him, relievedIlia bend from the blanket, and illanother instant had shot the Indianilcad at his feet. Meanwhile tho othersitvu^e was overpowering Bandy's part-a( r. .ind :LS the two were wrestling on theground, the white underneath, a secondshot from Sandy's unerring rifla disabledthe Indian, and, glancing, inflicted awound in the arm ol his rescued oppo-nent. The other Indians fled inconti-nently upon beholding thedeath of theircompanion.

A detachment of t'oops from FortIveogh was sent in pursuit of tUolndi.uisand captured three of them after a lightin which one soldier was killed. Timeof the Indians escaped across tho Cana-dian border.

Au Awkward Portmanteau.The proprietress of n small inn at

Viik'ncienncs bus just met with a curi-ous adventure, i t seems from the «e-oount given ol tho incident by the Echoilu Nvrrf, of Paris, that u mun presentedhimself at thejnnand madeu request tobe ndraitted, together with it very bulkyportmanteau, which lie carried on hisshoulder. The woman of the house,having allotted to him a second floorroom, offered to help him in carryingupstairs tho burden which seemed tooheavy for .his unaidud efforts; but herefused on the ground that it containedarticles of a very (.ciicate and fragilenature, and that he could trust it tono ono but himself. He, however, re-quested leave to deposit it in'a/cornerof the tavern until after rCBting andrefreshing himself he should be dis-posed to carry it upstairs. Whentho hour arrived lor closing thehouse the portmanteau remained stillbolow, and the good woman, on enter-Ing the room to put up the shutters,looked at it, and to her horror perceivedthat something moved within it. Sogreat was her terror that she sank downspeechless and breathless in n chair,und in that position was found by agendarme who cnine to protest againctthe luto hour at which the place waskept open. As' soon as the cause hadbeen explained to this minion of the law,ho forgot the primary object of bisvisit in his curiosity to explore the mys-terious piece of luggage, and drawinghis sword, soon solved, all doubts bycutting open the leather. • He had nosooner done so than a stout man jumpedout, pistol in hand, and. fell upon thogendarme, who was on his guard andused his weapon with good effect. Tbobaggage and its owner were both ac-cordingly arrested forthwith, and arenow in prison.

Household Perils. 'Under this head lite Boston Journal

qf Ohtmistry names several' dangeroussubstances which find their way intohouseholds. There nro two or three

\ volatile liquids used in families whichare particularly dangerous, and must beemplpyed.if at all, with special, care.Benzine, ether and strong ammonia con-

stitute thin class of agents. The twofirst-named liquids are employed incleansing-gloves and other wearing ap-parel, and in removing oil stains fromcarpels, curtains, eto. The liquids arehighly volatile, and flaah into vapor sosoon as the cork of the vial con tamingthem is removed. Their vapore arevery combustible, and will inflame atlong distances from ignited candles orgas flames, and consequently they shouldnever be used in the evening when thehouse is lighted. Explosions of a verydangerous nature will occur il the vaporof these liquids is peimitted to escapeinto a room in considerable qunntiu.In view of the great hazard of handlingthese liquids, cautious housekeeperswill not allow them to be brought intotheir dwellings, and this course Is commendable.

As regards -ammonia, or water . ofammonia, it is a very powerful agent,especially the strongei kinds sola bydruggists. Aninoident in its use hasrecently come under our notice, inwhich a young lady lost her life fromtaking a few drops through mistake.Breathing the gas under certain circum-stances causes serious harm to the lungsand membranes of the mouth and noso.It is an agent much used at the presenttitne for cleansing purposes, and it is un-objectionable ifproper care is used in itsemployment. The vials holding itshould be kept apart from others con-taining medicines, eto., and rubber stop-pers to the vials should be used.

Oxalic acid Is considerably employedin families for cleaning brass and copperutensils. This substance Is highly pois-onous, and must be kept and used vjilhgreat caution. In crystalline structureit closely resembles sulphate of magnesiaor Epsom salts, and therefore frequentmistakes are made and lives lost. Everyagent whieh fiOOB into families amongInexperienced persons should be kept ina safe place, and labeled properly andused with care.

8ussex county this year mist's botweei|35,0flO anil $80,000 for riaii moneys, nndit is not probable that any of it will bedevoted to doing permanent good inmaking roads that will last. Die guttersare annually plowed up and the dirtthrown in tlie middle of the road, onlyto be formed into mud and washedaway by the first heavy rains. In thisn a y thousands of dollars are wastedevery year. The people need to be edu-cated upon the subject uf road making.It is necessary that they should knowhow to put solid foundations into roadsthat will last, and they should knowhow to take care of the roads, so thatthe stormy season will not undo nil thegood that Jiaa been done. When tlieumount of money spvnt upon the roadsduring the past ten or twenty years isreckoned up, it looks as though theamount would macadamise all the princi-pal roads in tlie county.—Simor Intle-pendent. The above will apply witliequal pertinence to Monmouth county.
