STORM BOUND. “ I know I am pretty,” said Clara TYintringham to herself,, gazing com- posedly into her mirror, “ but I do not think I am sufficiently beautiful to send all the young men of my acquaint- ance into ecstacies over me.” . It is not always very easy for a girl to judge of her own looks; but Clara tried to be as impartial as poss- ible on this special occasion. And what was it she saw reflected in the glass before which she stood, critical- ly surveying the creature whom tho world called Clara Wintringham ? A tall, supple figure, with sloping shoulders and a daintily tapered waist; a skin as soft as satin, and tinted like an oleander blossom ; deep blue eyes,, just shaded into violet at the iris, and a little fresli mouth, where the teeth shone at every smile like pearls through a crimson shell. “ Yes,” said Clara,’ nodding her head so that certain-spirals of golden brown hair which always hung over her head danced coquettishly up and down, “ I am pretty. Then that five hundred pounds a year that Uncle Bruce’s will secured me isn’t altogeth- er a disagreeable pill for some of my lovers to swallow. I don’t .think I was made for an heiress. Hike to make and mend, to patch and-con- trive, and I ’ve always’ had an idea that I would make a splendid; poor man’s wife. I mean, of course, a splendid wife fpr a'poor man,” She took from her belt a withered red rose as she spoke, and arched" her pretty eyebrows oyer it in a puz- zled fashion. “ Harvey Gillette gave me the rose,” she soliloquized. “ He’s very hand- some, is Harvey, and I always did have a weakness for 'handsome people; and he’s a rising young man in his profession, people say. • I like talented people, too.

Well, I won’ t throw away the violets: either, not just yet.” ClaraYook"the jeweled hairpins out of.-her shining tresses, and laid aside, the white tarla- tan dress and wreaths of blue bloss- oms and went'composedly 'to"bed." For why should-, she lie":_aw'ake and , lose the fresh roses "of her "complex- ion, and dim the sparkle of those glo-* rious violet eyes, thinking about: the respective claims of ‘the^ various' loy-' ers who hovered, mpthlike','. about the torchlight of her charms ? There was. time to makeup her mind— quite, time enough. Why, she was not yet nine- teen, and life; was so full of bloom and freshness for her. Clara knew-*.that the autumn must come sooner or later,-- hut sho meant to have La good time" first. Sensible Clara!.: " , ‘ * So, in the very middle of the sea- son, when balls, parties, operas, mas- querades, and dejeuners santantes vrere at their height, and when old Aunt Dalmayno wrote a piteous letter t,o her brother in town, setting forth tha't “'she had the rheumatiz very bad, and there wan’t, any help-to. he had;'and she was that lonesome that she could not stand it no longer, and wouldn’t ono of her three neices come, down and stay with her for a‘short time:?” , Clara astonished tho family cir,clerby volunteering to go. ’ "M y dear,” said Mrs. Wintringham, “you don’t know.whatyou are under- taking.

Before Clara Wintringham slept that night she had taken Mrs. Dal- mayne’s heart fairly by storm. She had been an inmate of the old- fashioned farmhouse for about a week, when one of those grand snow storms came on which vail the whole country- side in spotless white, and hang the woods in royal robes of ermine. Aunt Dalmayne’s rheumatism grew worse, and she kept her room; but Clara went about as light-hearted as ever, doing the whole woi'k of the house, with such assistance as Moses, the handyman, was able to render her. The snow had fallen all day, blown, into drifts hy the wind that howled lugubriously through the clefts of the hills, and at last twilight deepened over the stormy earth. Clara was sit- ting thoughtfully before the firelight, paring apples for a pudding which was dear to Aunt Dalmayne’s invalid soul, when Moses came in. ' “ Miss Clara,” said he, “ there’s two gentlemen got storm-bound outside. They’ve missed their way, their horses are clean tired out, and they wanted to know if we’d give ’em a night’s shelter. .Xtold ’em Mrs. Dalmayne was ill, .and I wasn’t master, hut I ’d ask the young woman— Mis3 Clara.” . Clara winced a little, then laughed outright at Moses’ unpolished lan- guage, “ Of course, they may come in,” she said.. “ I would not turn even a dog from the door oh such a night as this.” She threw a fresh log on the fire and lighted the candle as she spoke. But what was her amazement, on_ turning to welcome the strangers, to behold in them no strangers at all, hut Mr. Harvey Gillette and his friend Frank Hood. Powdered liberally with the snow,, their noses reddened by the wind, their features rendered unnaturally rigid by cold, they stood blankly regarding her; hat Clara came forward with the ; grace of a young- duchess. “ Good evening, gentlemen. Pray come a little nearer the fire. I hardly supposed that in the snow-bound stran- gers who sought shelter here, I was to welcome old acquaintances!” “ Oh, Miss Wintringham— exceed- ingly glad to see you, I’m sur^!” stammered Mr. Gillette, awkwardly allowing his frog-like hand to touch her own. “ Bat what can you possi- bly be doing in such a place as this ?” “ Didn’t- Moses tell you ?” she ask- ed, demurely. “ I ’m doing the house- work.here.” ‘'Miss—Wintringham!” “ Well, why not ?” Mr;-Gillette had no reply ready ; he only rubbed his hands, smiled fee- bly, and advanced towards the red blaze; while Mr. Hood was exchang-. ing in turn his greeting with the for- mer heiress. “ Itis a surprise, Miss Wintringham, to.see,you here,” he said frankly, “ but a very agreeable one.” Clara wondered in her own heart what new mode of gallantry had taken away all-of Frank Hood’s awkward-^ ness. “ It is as good as a tableau,” she thought gleefully, when Hood had ex- plained to her,that unexpected busi- ness1 had taken them across the coun- try in the dead of winter, thus bringing about so entirely an unanticipated meeting, and she went into -the outer kitchen to get cream for the table. As sho stood there skimming -ofl' the golden accumulation which , followed her'spoon in’ thick folds, she heard Gillette’s voice speaking. “ Of course the father has failed and they’ve lost everything. A great pity; for with that face .she might have married;well.” , ‘- ‘What is to" prevent her marrying well now.?” Frank Hood’s slow delib- erate tones answered. : .'“ My'dearfellow,- we must all look out?for,ithe main-Uchance. In fact.T jvasconceia little -smitten .myself,' h u t' of-courseLit is o u t'o f the question now. -<• , .-Mr.MIobd did not reply; and Clara, asY'shey‘stood: there, with burning cheeks,was glad that he did not. I 'But.-when'she came back to preside at the"tea",table she was as composed * as reyer,' save that her color was a tri- fiejdeeper.than usual.'• j sThejStorm.- continued in unabated yiolence for,;twot>day’8j< during which; Jime^Mf; Gillette/ yawned, over Ltho jreek-old newspaper,"smoked his cigar besider’the fire/and systematically i^- “ A fellow mustn’t let himself get entangled!” was his mental reflection. Frank Hood, however, reasoned otherwise. He’ haunted Clara’s foot- steps with lover-like persistency ; he helped clean the windows, wipe the dishes, even essayed to sweep the floors, thereby creating contusion. And Clara, though she declared he was more of a hindrance than a help, seemed to like it. On the third day the weather clear- ed gloriously, and Moses brought the strangers’ horses. “ Come, Hood !” said Gillette, im- patiently; “ are you going to stand there all day making adieus ?” “ Be off as quick as you like,” said Hood calmly. “I am not going.” ' “ Not going ! But business— “ Hang business !” was the unac- countable reply. “ What do I care for business ? Miss Wintringham has promised to be my wife, and my busi- ness is here.at present.” Mr. Gillette inuttered.a few inco- herent congratulations, . and rode away,, ejaculating beneath his breath : “ I never saw such a fool iu all iny life!” When Harvey Gillette was gone, Clara told her lover the truth, and the whole truth. At-first Frank was half inclined- to be vexed. “ I didn’t want an heiress.” said he, biting his lips. “But you want me, don’t you?” said Clara, with the prettiest coaxing way in the world. “ OF course I d o !” said Frank. “ But darling, I had such a bright lit- tle dream of love in a cottage !” “ And it shall come true,” said Clara, “ in'spite of the five hundred a yeai\” The two young lovers traveled back tete-a-tete, to London, as soon as Mo- ses Peckham’s sister could be induced to come and take Clara’s place in Aunt Dalmayne’s household. What Harvey Gillette’s feelings were when he learned the true state of the case we leave the imaginative reader to conjecture, for the best tac- ticians may out-general themselves at times.

Terrible Beath of a Tonus’ X.ady by a . _ tamp Explosion. Another terrible accident has Oc- curred in this .city, plunging a highly respectable family into great grief, and-almost our entire city into mourn- ing;- -' Miss Portia Walter, (eldest daughter of Mark Walter, Esq.,) was a bright, - intelligent and highly be- loved young lady of about seventeen years of age, and resided with her parents and family on the corner of Huron and Mill streets, in this city. On Saturday night last she returned from choir ’ practice in the M. E. Church. It was about half past ten o’clock, and most of the family had retired tor the night. Mrs. Walter was not undressed, but was occupying a iounge, awaiting her daughter's re- turn. Portia was in the best of health and spirits, and was as chatty and enter- taining as ever. Taking a large lamp from a bracket, she went to the pantry to get a cookie. Her cousin, Miss Hicks, of Lapeer, accompanied her, followed by little Fred., "one of hex' brothers. A ll at once she complained of feeling faint, and staggered and fell. The lamp broke and the burn- ing wick speedily Ignited the oil. At this moment Portia recovered, and seeing the danger, drove her brother away and proceeded to extinguish the flames then mounting to the ceiling; The crash of the lamp and the screarn- ing o f the witnesses aroused Mr. Wal- ter, and he hurried to the spot, as did also her mother. Portia was now en- veloped in flames, and doing her ut- most to keep out of the way of her brother. Her mother ran towards her with a blanket, but Portia dodged about the room, and begged of her to keep away, screaming out, “ Mother, mother, you will be burned if you come near me.” The father • held a blanket in ' front of him and tried to reach his burning daughter. Having on nothing but a shirt, and the brave girl doing her utmost, to keep out of his way, he could .render her no as- sistance, and in less time, than it takes to write-this, almost every vestage of clothing was burned from the poor girl’s body,* and she lay on the floor, a mass of chai’red and quivering flesh. The father with- badly burned thighs, and -the mother, with terribly burned hands and wrists, extinguished the re- maining fire, and then summoned Drs. Elliott and Walker. Everything that medical aid could devise was done,- and the suffering of the poor young lady relieved as far as possible. Toward morning . she was perfectly rational, and done- much to cheer her afflicted father and mother and family-. Knowing that her recov- ery was impossible— on some parts of her body, the fire had eaten almost to the bone, in fact, she was burned from ankles to head— relatives and friends were notified, and preparations made for tho last hours. Clearly and dis- tinctly she narrated the terrible.scene, and rejoiced that in.doing as she did, the Louse was saved from destruction, and her parents from a terrible fate.. One by-one,. at her request, intimate friends were brought to her bedside. Toward evening, had been notified her Sunday school class, scholars from her .day school, ’the- choir, , and . last, but not least, Rev. T. J. Joslin, the min- ister. of her church.. The scene at the Sunday School in the afternoon,- when notified of the terrible accident, wa's .one long to-be remembered, while the’death-bed "scene will never- be'for - gotten. Surrounded .by her- grief- stricken family and about forty friends, Portia freely conversed, and was -as calm * and brave as. when enveloped with flames reaching, .to. the ceiling, and’still avoiding assistance that_might have sav.ed. her. life. Altliough-.still suffering intense "pain, , she-repe.ated tlie.Lord’s prayerdistinctly, andpres- ponded clearly’ when„the minister: was' offering,up prayer.-.

The Louisville Courier-Journal of of tho 26th ult:, relates the following as one of the incidents of the Bourbon Convention in that city; “ The elevator at the Ga.ll House furnishes several laughable anecdotes at the expense of delegates. One, who came in on the night train, reg- istered his name, writing Michigan after it with a flourish, and demanded his room in a tone that said plainly to the clerk: “ I know what I ’m about. No tricks upon travelers with me. I ’ve had my eye teeth cut.” He was told to follow one of the office hoys, who was about to take his carpet bag, but the gentleman clutch- ed it with a nervous grip, and waved the boy forward with a gesture that evidently meant: “No you don’t— I’m too old for that!” The polite darkey led tho way to the elevator, wondering whether the man had anything in his satchel more valuable than a clean dicky, that caus- ed him to cling to it so tenaciously. ’ At the door of the elevator the guest paused and looked in wonderingly at the number sitting inside, and turning to his guide asked, with symptoms of astonishment and indignation: “ Is this my room, sir—is this my room ?” “No, sir,” said the boy; “ dis is da elevator. Please Walk In.” He was induced to enter, and took his scat among the amused spectators. Tommy, the polite little conductor of that conveyance, started it up with its load of passengers, when the guest sprang to his feet in great trepidation. “Hello! Stop it I” he shouted. “ The thing’s movin’; Let me out— let me out!” This was too much for the risihles of the other occupants of the car. The frightened Michigander, suddenly conscious that in spite of his preten- tious shrewdness he had committed a blunder, stepped hack upon one old gentleman’s corns, and plumped down in. another one’s lap, and amidst mal- edictions and apologies order was not restored until he got to his stopping place, where he meekly followed his guide out to his room, and was “ put in his little bed” to dream of all sorts of traps set by watchful sharpers to catch innocent travelers. He remain- ed several days, but he carefully avoided the elevator during1 his stay. From the Etc. GennrieTe (Mo.) Fair Play. Grindstones Unearthed. When the C. and I. M. Railroad contractors were at work recently on the farm of Col. Bogy, in the neigh- borhood of the old salt works on tho Saline, in this county, they were sud- denly surprised by coming to a grind- stone some two feet beneath the sur- face of the soil; and upon removing it another one was found to be beneath it; thi3 was also removed, and still another was found; and so they con- tinued until another was found, tho bottom one some four feet under ground, ranging from fifteen inches in diameter to three -feet four inches, piled one upon another in the style of a cone. The largest one- was three feet four inches in diameter, three inches thick, and weighed 408 pounds, and had the name of the maker upon it— “ A. Barlow, April, 1808.” From the quality of the grif, it is supposed by parties acquainted-with it to be of the “ Camp Rowdy” grit, which it is said is the best grindstone grit in thi3 section of the-country. Camp Rowdy is in dose proximity -to where they were found. The engrav- ing on-the large stone is very plain, and it is said that the marks of the chisel are so plain that one would sup- pose they were recently made. -These stones, it is supposed, were there for the use of parties making salt, and from .some cause or other were lost track of, and became buried beneath-the soil, and have been;there for-over a-half century, sixty-four years. The railroad contractors have placed the largest ono of the stoDes, with the inscription and date on it, in their office at St. Mary, and if parties wish to ascertain the durability of Sto. Genevive County sand stone, we-ad- vise them; to call and examine it. A stone that can stand the washings of the creek and the beating of the rains for -sixty-four years, and retain-tho marks of the cutter’s chisel,- must-bo a' durahlo one. ' - .

To the hasty words and actions"'Strewn along our backward traok I

How those little hands remind us,As in snowy grace they.lie,

Never blossomed in such beauty As adorns the mouth" to-day

And sweet words that freight’ohr. memory With tlieir beautiful perfume,

Come to us in sweeter accents :Through the portals of the tomb !

Let ua keep the wheat and roses —Casting out the thorns and chaff:

Let us find our sweetest comfort In the blessings of to-day—

With a patient hand removing . All tbe.briers from our way.”

“ I know I am pretty,” said Clara TYintringham to herself,, gazing com­posedly into her mirror, “ but I do not think I am sufficiently beautiful to send all the young men o f my acquaint­ance into ecstacies over me.” .

It is not always very easy for a girl to judge of her own looks; but Clara tried to be as impartial as poss­ible on this special occasion. And what was it she saw reflected in the glass before which she stood, critical­ly surveying the creature whom tho world called Clara Wintringham ?

A tall, supple figure, with sloping shoulders and a daintily tapered waist; a skin as soft as satin, and tinted like an oleander blossom ; deep blue eyes,, just shaded into violet at the iris, and a little fresli mouth, where the teeth shone at every smile like pearls through a crimson shell.

“ Yes,” said Clara,’ nodding her head so that certain-spirals of golden brown hair which always hung over her head danced coquettishly up and down, “ I am pretty. Then that five hundred pounds a year that Uncle Bruce’s will secured me isn’ t altogeth­er a disagreeable pill for some o f my lovers to swallow. I don’t .think I was made for an heiress. H ik e to make and mend, to patch and-con­trive, and I ’ve always’ had an idea that I would make a splendid; poor man’s wife. I mean, o f course, a splendid wife fpr a'poor man,”

She took from her belt a withered red rose as she spoke, and arched" her pretty eyebrows oyer it in a puz­zled fashion.

“ Harvey Gillette gave me the rose,” she soliloquized. “ He’s very hand­some, is Harvey, and I always did have a weakness for 'handsome people; and he’s a rising young man in his profession, people say. • I like talented people, too. I ’l l keep the rose just a little while.” And she laid it away in a certain satiri-lined box where she was wont - to treasure souvenirs o f these, her .‘girlish days;.. “ And Trank Hood’s violets— poor Frank Hood ! H e’s so silent and" so awkward, and yet there" is something about him that won’ t let one despise him. He certainly 'is -not-, handsome, though he has fine_ eyes, and a face like one of those-old marble creations one sees in" the' School o f Design. Well, I won’ t throw away the violets: either, not just yet.” ClaraYook"the jeweled hairpins out of.-her shining tresses, and laid aside, the white tarla­tan dress and wreaths o f blue bloss­oms and went'composedly 'to"bed."

For why should-, she lie":_aw'ake and , lose the fresh roses "of her "complex­ion, and dim the sparkle of those glo-* rious violet eyes, thinking about: the respective claims o f ‘the^ various' loy-' ers who hovered, mpthlike','. about the torchlight of her charms ? There was. time to makeup her mind— quite, time enough. Why, she was not yet nine­teen, and life; was so full of bloom and freshness for her. Clara knew-*.that the autumn must come sooner or later,-- hut sho meant to have La good time" first. Sensible Clara!.: " , ‘ *

So, in the very middle o f the sea­son, when balls, parties, operas, mas­querades, and dejeuners santantes vrere at their height, and when old Aunt Dalmayno wrote a piteous letter t,o her brother in town, setting forth tha't “'she had the rheumatiz very bad, and there wan’ t, any help-to. he had;'and she was that lonesome that she could not stand it no longer, and wouldn’t ono of her three neices come, down and stay with her for a ‘short time:?” , Clara astonished tho family cir,clerby volunteering to go. ’

"M y dear,” said Mrs. Wintringham, “ you don’ t know.whatyou are under­taking. It is a common -.farmhouse.”

old chaise, with a sleepy, old horse trotting in front, turned into the val­ley road, and she could 'see the an-

-cient farmhouse, steep roofed, and brown with a half century o f suns and rains, with the elm boughs wrest­ling; overhead in the gale, and the Wooded'hills rising upon every side, While One ruddy beam of light glowed from the tiny window under the eaves, casting as it might he a javelin of brightness athwart the road in front of the door.

“ I think she’s expectin’ o f you,” said the rough charioteer who had been sent to the station to meet Mrs. Dalmayne’s niece; “ but I ’m afeared you’ll find it very lonesome.” "

“ Oh,” cried Clara gleefully, as. she sprang out of tho vehicle, “ I think it is Splendid!”

She entered the low-roofed kitchen, all aglow with the roaring fire of logs on the hearth, and further illuminated hy two tallow candles in bright brass candle sticks, Aunt Dalmayne had evidently bestirred herself, for the ta­ble was spread with hot biscuits, halved apples, custards and preserves, and the old. lady herself hobbled forward on a crutch to welcome her niece.

“ Why, my dear,” cried Aunt Dal­mayne, stepping back to take a sec­ond survey, “ you’re as pretty as a picture!”

“ Am I ?" said Clara, coloring and laughing. “ But, aunty, what a glori­ous fire you have got, and whaj; a dar­ling old urn, and how nice that tea does ■ sm ell!”

“ Sit down and have a cup, my dear,” said Aunt Dalmayne, highly flattered.

Before Clara Wintringham slept that night she had taken Mrs. Dal­mayne’s heart fairly by storm.

She had been an inmate o f the old- fashioned farmhouse for about a week, when one o f those grand snow storms came on which vail the whole country­side in spotless white, and hang the woods in royal robes o f ermine. Aunt Dalmayne’s rheumatism grew worse, and she kept her room; but Clara went about as light-hearted as ever, doing the whole woi'k o f the house, with such assistance as Moses, the handyman, was able to render her.

The snow had fallen all day, blown, into drifts hy the wind that howled lugubriously through the clefts o f the hills, and at last twilight deepened over the stormy earth. Clara was sit­ting thoughtfully before the firelight, paring apples for a pudding which was dear to Aunt Dalmayne’s invalid soul, when Moses came in. '

“ Miss Clara,” said he, “ there’s two gentlemen got storm-bound outside. They’ve missed their way, their horses are clean tired out, and they wanted to know if we’d give ’em a night’s shelter. .X told ’em Mrs. Dalmayne was ill, .and I wasn’ t master, hut I ’d ask the young woman— Mis3 Clara.” .

Clara winced a little, then laughed outright at Moses’ unpolished lan­guage, •

“ O f course, they may come in,” she said.. “ I would not turn even a dog from the door oh such a night as this.”

She threw a fresh log on the fire and lighted the candle as she spoke.

But what was her amazement, on_ turning to welcome the strangers, to behold in them no strangers at all, hut Mr. Harvey Gillette and his friend Frank Hood.

Powdered liberally with the snow,, their noses reddened by the wind, their features rendered unnaturally rigid by cold, they stood blankly regarding her; hat Clara came forward with the

; grace o f a young- duchess.“ Good evening, gentlemen. Pray

come a little nearer the fire. I hardly supposed that in the snow-bound stran­gers who sought shelter here, I was to welcome old acquaintances!”

“ Oh, Miss Wintringham— exceed­ingly glad to see you, I ’m sur^!” stammered Mr. Gillette, awkwardly allowing his frog-like hand to touch her own. “ Bat what can you possi­bly be doing in such a place as this ?”

“ Didn’t- Moses tell you ?” she ask­ed, demurely. “ I ’ m doing the house­work.here.”

‘ 'Miss— Wintringham!”“ Well, why not ?”Mr;-Gillette had no reply ready ;

he only rubbed his hands, smiled fee­bly, and advanced towards the red blaze; while Mr. Hood was exchang-. ing in turn his greeting with the for­mer heiress.• “ It is a surprise, Miss Wintringham, to.see,you here,” he said frankly, “ but a very agreeable one.”

Clara wondered in her own heart what new mode o f gallantry had taken away all-of Frank Hood’s awkward-^ ness.

“ It is as good as a tableau,” she thought gleefully, when Hood had ex­plained to her,that unexpected busi­ness1 had taken them across the coun­try in the dead of winter, thus bringing about so entirely an unanticipated meeting, and she went into -the outer kitchen to get cream for the table. As sho stood there skimming -ofl' the golden accumulation which , followed her'spoon in ’ thick folds, she heard Gillette’s voice speaking.

“ Of course the father has failed and they’ve lost everything. A great p ity ; for with that face .she might have married;well.”, ‘-‘What is to" prevent her marrying well now.?” Frank Hood’s slow delib­erate tones answered.: .'“ My'dearfellow,- we must all look out?for,ithe main-Uchance. In fa ct.T jvasconceia little -smitten .myself,' h u t ' of-courseLit is o u t 'o f the question now. -<•, .-Mr.MIobd did not reply ; and Clara, asY'shey‘stood: there, with burning cheeks,was glad that he did not.I 'But.-when'she came back to preside at the"tea",table she was as composed

* as reyer,' save that her color was a tri- fiejdeeper.than u sual.'• j sThejStorm.- continued in unabated yiolence for,;twot>day’8j< during which; Jime^Mf; Gillette/ yawned, over Ltho jreek-old newspaper,"smoked his cigar besider’the fire/and systematically i^-

“ A fellow mustn’ t let himself get entangled!” was his mental reflection.

Frank Hood, however, reasoned otherwise. He’ haunted Clara’s foot­steps with lover-like persistency ; he helped clean the windows, wipe the dishes, even essayed to sweep the floors, thereby creating contusion. And Clara, though she declared he was more o f a hindrance than a help, seemed to like it.

On the third day the weather clear­ed gloriously, and Moses brought the strangers’ horses.

“ Come, Hood !” said Gillette, im­patiently; “ are you going to stand there all day making adieus ?”

“ Be off as quick as you like,” said Hood calmly. “ I am not going.” '

“ Not going ! But business— “ Hang business !” was the unac­

countable reply. “ What do I care for business ? Miss Wintringham has promised to be my wife, and my busi­ness is here.at present.”

Mr. Gillette inuttered.a few inco­herent congratulations, . and rode away,, ejaculating beneath his breath :

“ I never saw such a fool iu all iny life !”

When Harvey Gillette was gone, Clara told her lover the truth, and the whole truth. At-first Frank was half inclined- to be vexed.

“ I didn’t want an heiress.” said he, biting his lips.

“ But you want me, don’t y ou ?” said Clara, with the prettiest coaxing way in the world.

“ OF course I d o !” said Frank. “ But darling, I had such a bright lit­tle dream o f love in a cottage !”

“ And it shall come true,” said Clara, “ in'spite o f the five hundred a yeai\”

The two young lovers traveled back tete-a-tete, to London, as soon as Mo­ses Peckham’s sister could be induced to come and take Clara’s place in Aunt Dalmayne’s household.

What Harvey Gillette’s feelings were when he learned the true state o f the case we leave the imaginative reader to conjecture, for the best tac­ticians may out-general themselves at times.

Newly Married Mcu—What they have to Come to.

- BV RELIABLE YOUNG.First. 'Just married; destined to

linger in clover, new-mown hay, and such herbage from nine to twelve months. Then— ‘

Second. Some black, rascally, stormy night you are turned out into streets and ponds and mill-races, or amid snow eighteen inches deep, and drifting like blazes, and told to run for the doctor. "When you get home again, eight chances to ten, a little red-flannel looking thing, about the . size of a big merino potato, awaits you. They will call it a baby ; an d packed Up with it you will find the first real squalls of married life— you can bet on that.

Third. Paregoric, and soothing syrup, and catnip-tea, and long flan­nel, and diaper-stuff, and baby- colic — they will come along too ; in fact,' they will become just as much at home in the house as dinner. Then—

Fourth. One o f these nights, in “ The wee am a' horns ayont the twal’,"

you will turn out again. Barefoot, an icy disconsolate sense o f dampness all about you, only a cotton shirt or such a matter between you and the distressed openness of a cane-seat ebair, you will distractedly rock that baby back and forth, and bob it up and down, singing, meanwhile, with a voice like a wild ox in “a slaught er- yard

“ This thing is playing out, Mary.”“ Rook o’ bye, baby, on a tree-top,”

or some such melody. 'And all- the time that babv yells. Ob, doesn’ t he yell, while Mary Ann, up to her nose under the warm bed-clothes, to help out, every now and then impa­tiently puts in, just at thewrong place, “ Why don’ t you trot him faster, Sam­uel ?”

And you trot him— Oh how you do trot him! I f you could only trot his wind out so far that he never could get any of it back again, or break his back, or neck, or something, you would be immeasurably happy. But no. The little innocent seems tough­er than an India-rubber car spring.

Just as you are about giving up, concluding that you must freeze, that there will certainly have to be a * fun­eral in the house inside of thirty-six hours, baby wilts from sheer exhaus­tion, and then, with teeth chattering like a McCormick reaper, you crawl in by Mary Ann and try to sleep again. '

Fifth. Gradually yon glide away into a tangled maze of ice, camomile, more ice skating, weather, steam-whis- tled-voiced babies, jockey club, sleigh rides, crinoline immense as the -old bell at Moscow, Indian ambuscades, snOw storms, and forty'other equally', cheerful tilings, suddenly—'

Sixth. _ A snort, a thrash,' a wild throwing upward ofli.ttle amis and legs, and then, keen 'and shrill, comes that terrible “ ah-waah L ah-w-a-a-h"J” . again. I guess,you wako up, don’ t you ?

“ Get the the paregoric and a, tea­spoon, quick !” says Mary Ann, in a sharp, stacco tone> and don’ t you ‘ get it ? . . .

In just throe-eights'of a second you are a Grecian bend out there on the- cold floor dropping paregoric-in a tea­spoon. - • ‘ '

Hurry! Gracious little Peter Me-, scribing diabolic curves with all the arms and legs he’s got, and./ scream- ing.'one hundred pounds to the square inch, and Mary Ann rearing., arouri'd' there in the .bed making a; rocking chair of her back, and.yelling, “ -By, by Gj” like -a wild Comanche" on .the" war-path." Oh, ,■ n o ;- circumstances ‘ are.nbt ‘such 'as' to make "you ‘ Hurry any.' ‘. “ '', "And then’to'think'that as days and perhaps years' > roll bn," there jias^got to be'mdyejand more yet of’just/such', distressed work !l " “ " *

The remains were then taken to Oak Hill Cemetery, followed by one o f the largest funeral processions seen in. this city for many a day.

The first carriage contained the Ministers; followed by about one hun­dred boys and girls, marching two and two ; then the hearse (the coffin was covered with elegant wreaths o f flow­ers,) with six young men for pall­bearers ; behind this about eighteen young classmates, then the mourners and relatives ; next the Professors and teachers o f our public schools, and citizens, in carriages. The sidewalks were crowded. The sad death, and burial o f Portia Walter will long be rememberd by those who witnessed it.

Another Kerosene Horror.Terrible Beath of a Tonus’ X.ady by a

. _tamp Explosion.Another terrible accident has Oc­

curred in this .city, plunging a highly respectable family into great grief, and-almost our entire city into mourn­ing;- -' Miss Portia Walter, (eldest daughter o f Mark Walter, Esq.,) was a bright, - intelligent and highly be­loved young lady o f about seventeen years o f age, and resided with her parents and family on the corner of Huron and Mill streets, in this city. On Saturday night last she returned from choir ’ practice in the M. E. Church. It was about half past ten o’clock, and most o f the family had retired tor the night. Mrs. Walter was not undressed, but was occupying a iounge, awaiting her daughter's re­turn.

Portia was in the best o f health and spirits, and was as chatty and enter­taining as ever. Taking a large lamp from a bracket, she went to the pantry to get a cookie. Her cousin, Miss Hicks, o f Lapeer, accompanied her, followed by little Fred., "one o f hex' brothers. A ll at once she complained o f feeling faint, and staggered and fell. The lamp broke and the burn­ing wick speedily Ignited the oil. At this moment Portia recovered, and seeing the danger, drove her brother away and proceeded to extinguish the flames then mounting to the ceiling; The crash o f the lamp and the screarn­ing o f the witnesses aroused Mr. Wal­ter, and he hurried to the spot, as did also her mother. Portia was now en­veloped in flames, and doing her ut­most to keep out of the way o f her brother. Her mother ran towards her with a blanket, but Portia dodged about the room, and begged o f her to keep away, screaming out, “ Mother, mother, you will be burned i f you come near me.” The father • held a blanket in ' front o f him and tried to reach his burning daughter. Having on nothing but a shirt, and the brave girl doing her utmost, to keep out of his way, he could .render her no as­sistance, and in less time, than it takes to write-this, almost every vestage of clothing was burned from the poor girl’s body,* and she lay on the floor, a mass o f chai’red and quivering flesh. The father with- badly burned thighs, and -the mother, with terribly burned hands and wrists, extinguished the re­maining fire, and then summoned Drs. Elliott and Walker.

Everything that medical aid could devise was done,- and the suffering of the poor young lady relieved as far as possible. Toward morning . she was perfectly rational, and done- much to cheer her afflicted father and mother and family-. Knowing that her recov­ery was impossible— on some parts of her body, the fire had eaten almost to the bone, in fact, she was burned from ankles to head— relatives and friends were notified, and preparations made for tho last hours. Clearly and dis­tinctly she narrated the terrible.scene, and rejoiced that in.doing as she did, the Louse was saved from destruction, and her parents from a terrible fate.. One by-one,. at her request, intimate friends were brought to her bedside. Toward evening, had been notified her Sunday school class, scholars from her

.day school, ’the- choir, , and . last, but not least, Rev. T. J. Joslin, the min­ister. of her church.. The scene at the Sunday School in the afternoon,- when notified of the terrible accident, wa's .one long to-be remembered, while the’death-bed "scene will never- be'for­gotten. Surrounded .b y her- grief- stricken family and about forty friends, Portia freely conversed, and was -as calm * and brave as. when enveloped with flames reaching, .to. the ceiling, and’still avoiding assistance that_might have sav.ed. her. life. Altliough-.still suffering intense "pain, , she-repe.ated tlie.Lord’s prayerdistinctly, andpres- ponded clearly’ when„the minister: was' offering,up prayer.-.

Wanted to be Let Oat.The Louisville Courier-Journal o f

o f tho 26th ult:, relates the following as one o f the incidents o f the Bourbon Convention in that city ;

“ The elevator at the Ga.ll House furnishes several laughable anecdotes at the expense o f delegates. One, who came in on the night train, reg­istered his name, writing Michigan after it with a flourish, and demanded his room in a tone that said plainly to the clerk: “ I know what I ’m about. No tricks upon travelers with me. I ’ve had my eye teeth cut.”

He was told to follow one o f the office hoys, who was about to take his carpet bag, but the gentleman clutch­ed it with a nervous grip, and waved the boy forward with a gesture that evidently m eant: “ No you don’ t— I ’m too old for that!”

The polite darkey led tho way to the elevator, wondering whether the man had anything in his satchel more valuable than a clean dicky, that caus­ed him to cling to it so tenaciously. ’ A t the door o f the elevator the guest paused and looked in wonderingly at the number sitting inside, and turning to his guide asked, with symptoms o f astonishment and indignation:

“ Is this my room, sir—is this my room ?”

“ No, sir,” said the b o y ; “ dis is da elevator. Please Walk In.”

H e was induced to enter, and took his scat among the amused spectators. Tommy, the polite little conductor o f that conveyance, started it up with its load o f passengers, when the guest sprang to his feet in great trepidation.

“ H ello! Stop it I” he shouted. “ The thing’s movin’; Let me out— let me ou t!”

This was too much for the risihles o f the other occupants o f the car. The frightened Michigander, suddenly conscious that in spite o f his preten­tious shrewdness he had committed a blunder, stepped hack upon one old gentleman’ s corns, and plumped down in. another one’s lap, and amidst mal­edictions and apologies order was not restored until he got to his stopping place, where he meekly followed his guide out to his room, and was “ put in his little bed” to dream o f all sorts o f traps set by watchful sharpers to catch innocent travelers. He remain­ed several days, but he carefully avoided the elevator during1 his stay.

From the Etc. GennrieTe (Mo.) Fair Play.Grindstones Unearthed.

When the C. and I. M. Railroad contractors were at work recently on the farm of Col. Bogy, in the neigh­borhood o f the old salt works on tho Saline, in this county, they were sud­denly surprised by coming to a grind­stone some two feet beneath the sur­face o f the soil; and upon removing it another one was found to be beneath it ; thi3 was also removed, and still another was found; and so they con­tinued until another was found, tho bottom one some four feet under ground, ranging from fifteen inches in diameter to three -feet four inches, piled one upon another in the style o f a cone. The largest one- was three feet four inches in diameter, three inches thick, and weighed 408 pounds, and had the name o f the maker upon it— “ A. Barlow, April, 1808.”

From the quality o f the grif, it is supposed by parties acquainted-with it to be o f the “ Camp Rowdy” grit, which it is said is the best grindstone grit in thi3 section o f the-country. Camp Rowdy is in dose proximity -to where they were found. The engrav­ing on-the large stone is very plain, and it is said that the marks o f the chisel are so plain that one would sup- pose they were recently made.■ -These stones, it is supposed, were there for the use o f parties making salt, and from .some cause or other were lost track of, and became buried beneath-the soil, and have been;there for-over a -h a lf century, sixty-four years. The railroad contractors have placed the largest ono o f the stoDes, with the inscription and date on it, in their office at St. Mary, and if parties wish to ascertain the durability o f Sto. Genevive County sand stone, we-ad­vise them; to call and examine it. A stone that can stand the washings of the creek and the beating of the rains for -sixty-four years, and retain-tho marks o f the cutter’s chisel,- must-bo a' durahlo one. ' -

It m y xurt y tt bo generally under­stood that is is the design, o f tlie mem­ber freai the Niles district to: introduce it ItiU in the Legislature to amend the.

B y no rule or> i pirfTieipa! o f justice can tee thing: be I itx&cd npon with the least degree, o f | n:I}ewance. And Berrien County -win:*' t tern ally politically remember any

, t.*f her members that, for a single in ■"cent, dares advocate the, measure.

Niles city has founds that, she can s no longer control the Board o f Su- ^ n.-rvisors to tho interests of that place :? ar.dta the disadvantage, o f the: hal~

arvce o f the County. In this- extrem­ity, something must be done to re- jj-:«g n ^ j30fitrQl o f the- County. a She r T a S ' t h a t , she can-” not hrpo^W e ^ ^^SIfSyfeldiDg to. the : s*t^ aS S ^ P »filfe fi2aS n ce o f tho

'• twice her; prS ^curfdue influence on the Board

o f Supervisors. She has more now than she is justly entled to, as com-

! pared with some Townships in the County.

Take for instance the Village and Township o f St. Joseph, which has

, only one Supervisor, with a:population o f 2,994, The tillage and Township o f Buchanan has hut one Supervisor,

1 and the population In. 1870 was 2,857, Now, Niles City has only (in 1S70) a p.pnlatioa of 4,680„ Mow, sho al­ready has an undue proportion on the

, Board o f Supervisors, and to. give her two more, would be simply an outrage on the balance o f the County..

It is true Miles may come and claim that her population has increased since 1S70. This may be^ftrue, hut: then her increase has not been in any great­er ratio than that o f tho Townships and villages above referred to, or than that o f other Townships in the; Coun­ty. So that the argument that may 1 3 based on the increase o f population ftlls to the ground; Wo know that Miles has always pretended to have a larger population than she, really had H er claim in days gone b y was 7,000 inhabitants, but; the- census o f 1S7(: tank; tho wind out o f her sails, giving her only 4,63.0. Mow, every person in Berrien County knows' full well that the city o f Miles has; not, for the last three; years, increased in popula­tion and other improvements any fas ter than the rest o f the; .County; Thai sho to-day is not,.relatively con­sidered, o f any more importance, as compared with the balance o f the C runty, than she was in 1S70.

Tho hirst and Fourth Wards of Miles city have now one Supervisor, and h-ovo a united population of 2,5S2.. The Second and Third Wards hard a population, o f 2,048 and have one Su­pervisor. Mow then, if" tho 2,682! inhabitants o f the 1st and 4th Wards; o f Miles are entitled to two Supervi­sors, then tho 2,857 inhabitants, of; Buchanan, the 2,994 inhabitants of S i. Joseph, and the 8,116 o f Benton are entitled respectively to at least, two Supervisors each. I f the 2,048 inhabitants o f the 2d and Sd. Wards, o f Miles city are entitled to two Su­pervisors,, then the 2,857 of Buchan­an are entitled to about three; the 2,994 o f Sc. Joseph, to three; the; 3,116 o f Benton to three; the 1,909 o f Miles Township to two Supervisors. Several other Townships having near­ly 2,000 inhabitants would, also be en­titled to an additional Supervisor each. Mow, the fairness and justice o f Miles city would not in any wise, allow these additional Supervisors to the other Townships.

The entire people o f Berrien County know that; this .move o f Miles city is bnt to succeed in getting, not her full share o f repreteatation*on the Board o f Supervisors, hut to get more than her fall share, to get double. She is not satisfied with equality.

It may still ho claimed that Miles; city is entitled to two additional Su­pervisors on the ground of her wealth., B at how stands the case ? The valu­ation o f real and personal estate iii; Miles city, as equalized by the Board o f Supervisors in October, was 098%-: 270. This amount is now represented hv too Supervisors. The 1st and 4th. Ward3, represented by one Supervi­sor, has a total valuation o f $894,890. Mow, i f ihi3 §894,890 is entitled to two S-upervison, then the §584,096 o f Bertrand is entitled to more than two; the §377,200 o f Berrien to too ; the §488,650 o f Benton to more than two:; the §551,653 o f Buchanan to more than two ; the §537,499 o f Miles; Township to more .than M o; the; §897,995 o f Oronoko to t o o / the,' §392,740 o f St. Joseph to two.

Again, i f the §591,380 o f the: 2d and 3d Wards, o f Miles c ity ’ entitles them to too; Supervisors, then the §53-4,096.o f Bertrand ought to entitle that Township: to; two / the §551,653 o f Bdchanan to tw o/ the §537,490 of Mile3 Township to two. .><

The secret o f this move, by the city o f Miles against the balance of the County, is found’ in the fact, that for many'years that city has been wont; by hook or crook, or by means o f tho. persistency -of its Supervisors,, to evade its just share o f taxation. This has; been known to* many o f the Supervi­sors, hut the diffiuculty. was to. remedy it., Tho* Supervisors,. however, at'

_ their October session,: dctorminedjto ~ take the bull by the horns, and hence

determined to bring the. assessment in the city o f Miles up to something vicar an equal basis. The Miles Supervi­sors bad; assessed/ for. the; year 1872, the; real estate o f jibe city. at.SSSS*,-

and the Board raised.their as-* sessment 20 per cent., bringing it/up.: to §827,945, being a just increase of- ^ 1 S 7 ,© @ © , which, added to the. per­sonal assessment, makes..the total.of §9S0,270 for the' city o f Miles. Bor; this amount they now have two Su­pervisors, or one Supervisor -repre­senting/" by an equal division, the,q total value, of- §493,135..

Mow, from these data we submit i f Miles city-.is.not already.libjnallysrep-- rented on the Boarduof Supervisors^ and that it would be*‘ sjmpjy 'junjiist and outrageous: to ■’give nor-them one7 or too,‘more Supervisors.

REDUCTION OF POSTAGE.A-. hill; is now before Congress which

provides for a very material reduction in postage. The bill, provides that postage on letters be reduced to two cents for each, half ounce or fraction thereof. This rate also to apply to all drop letters;. Also that;newspaper postage,-shall;, be paid, at the offices where: the,papers, are mailed instead o f the office o f delivery. This pro vision. does not apply to weekly loca newspapers, so far>as their circulation in the county where, published is con­cerned. 'Their circulation through the mails in snch counties to bo free o f postages as heretofore.,

„In many respects this hill is-far preferable to the present plan o f cob lecting. newspaper, postage at the office o f delivery., I t will undoubtedly save much postage on: printed matter that; i3 now lost, as no papers will be sent without the postage thereon being paid. , Mow, in many instances, nu­merous papers; are sent; on which pos­tage i? never - collected/ owing to the removal o f the parties to whom they are sent or their refusal to take; them* from the office and pay the postage; thereon, as well as* for other reasons. This move we regard as a move in the right; direction/ and one that; ought to give gen eral satisfaction.

RED TAPEISM.

United States: except a judicial under the;Constitution.shall be deemed: a vacation'of such Federal office: and will be taken and treated as a, resig­nation o f his commission, or appoint­ment in the service o f the United States. - ‘

The appointment also o f Deputy Marshal of. the United States may he conferred upon Sheriff's and deputy Sheriff.’s ; and deputy post masters the emoluments o f whoso office does not exceed §600 per year may also hold other offices provided they do not interfere with .their duties: as Post Master;!

This will rectify an abuse which ha3 been o f long standing and one which, in some localities, has grown to bo an almost, intolerable evil. Federal offi­cers in many instances have, attempt

1 to get themselves elected to the Legislature or some, State office, and thus attempt to run the politics of both branches o f the government at the same time. The disadvantages and injury which this practice has produc­ed is clearly set forth in the Presi­dent’s order. I f State legislation and State governments are;to be controlled any longer by F.ederal authority, it Will be after the President has with drawn tho chief means through which these abuses, can be accomplished.

FR ANKING PRIVILEGE,On blond ay/ the last act was ac

complished, so far as Congress is con cerned, in the long: delayed and much discussed question o f the abolition of the Franking Privilege. The House accepted and passed the Senate's amendments. The bill now goes to the President for his approval. The act takes effect the. first o f July next, and provides for the abolition o f the Franking Privilege, • and also that hearafter no allowance shall be made to Senators and Representatives for postage. This will undoubtedly greatly lessen the expenses o f the transportation o f the mails, and /.will aid much toward securing a lower rate o f postage.

Matters in the Legislature are mov­ing, rather slowly, the chief subject of interest being in what is known here as; the “ Detroit Park Bill.” One par­ty desires, to leave to the Board o f A l­dermen of'D etroit the whole matter o f locating the park and levying the; taxes to pay for the same. The other party desires to refer the matter to a vote.of all the’ citizens in Detroit. Each party charges the other o f being in the interest of a “ ring.” On Tues­day the House had quite a lively fight over the matter in committee of. the whole, (Dr. Bo9 in the Chair) 'which resulted in, the success of the party

To Correspondents.— Some o f our County correspondents are becoming negligent. Don’ t fail to send us the news. I f you haven’ t: time to send it in form o f a letter, send us short items o f what occurs of inter­est during the week in your respect­ive localities.

A r e s o l u t io n was offered to pro hibit smoking in the Senate Chamber Of our State; Legislature. *

J. Y oung & Son, at Dayton, are closing out-their stock o f woolen go ods and, clothing; Now is the time for

t fbargains.

Spinal F ever.:— This dreaded dis­ease is prevailing to some extent in the western part o f the county. Four or five fatal, cases: are reported within the last few days.

W rite with Pen and I n k — Those writing for the R ecord should write, plainly and with pen and ink. We certainly shall have to decline pub­lishing any thing written with pencil. It takes too much time to decipher the Same. Remember to write your communications: with pen and ink.

They Come, They Come.— Another lot o f New Goods just received at Reddens: & Grahams, cheaper than ever. Call and see them before they are gone, as they don’t stay long with them this winter.

TWO scholars were expelled from the Buchanan Union School last week.

A NEW plan o f making horse shoes is being generally adopted in some places. The corks on the heel o f the shoes, for the fore feet are placed on lengthwise with; the shoe. This pre­vents the horse’s feet from slipping to either side-

GROCERifis cheaper than ever at J. Young & Son’ s, Dayton. tf

T he practice o f leaving clothes out over night, on the line, is a very dan­gerous one. W e hear every week of whole washings being stolen. We have persons in this village who are not too good, wo believe, to provide themselves. with, clothing by this means.' It is best always-to be safe.

R emember, the election next Sat­urday. Let every person interested attend the polls. The office to be filled is an important one, and should not be filled by one unworthy the po­sition.

Nothing will more surely kill a place than for its citizens to be continually complaining- about dull times, deprecating property in the village, discouraging invest-- ments, and going off to some neighbor­ing town to do vour-trading, because y.ou happen to have the cash, want to do a big trade, and think' to get better bargains than from those- who have; been in the habit o f selling you arti­cles from time to time and- waiting from six months to a year for their pay. The principle is a bad one, and we trust 13 riot adoped by any of this village.

Some people when they see a let­ter, advertised, or-find a letter in their box that belongs to some other party, think that the letter belongs to them and has been misdirected. They should remember that the penalty for opening sealed letters not their own, is $50j or imprisonment for. 10 years;

The town was well filled with peo­ple last Saturday, but we learn the trade at the numerous stores was not Very large. One could easily see- the inconvenience of our narrow-streets. They were several times‘when teams could not pass each other.

Those owning vacant lots should now be persuaded to build upon them' while the town is "filling up and grow­ing, or offer, them a,t a.-,reasonahle low figure to those who are willing to im­prove them. We cannot see on what principle of economy or self-interest people keep their vacant lots from year to year, paying taxes on the same and refusing 'to take a low price for them while making no improvements themselves. Don’ t hold a penny so close to your eyes that it will, hide a dollar at arms length.

PrococUlnglk'of (lie Farmers’ dab .The Farmers’ Club convened at

Roe’s Hall on the 18th inst. and re­marks were made by different members of the Club on the subject of “ Hired Help,” stating how they should be treated, what may be required of hands, and the amount that should be paid to them in compensation for their labor.

Mr. Hudson stated that the question of labor was a very important one, and one in which a largo part o f the people of our country are interested. It is time farmers were thinking and talking on that subject. Believes that hired help should be treated as i f they were as good as ourselves; they should be given proper time to eat arid rest in ; is satisfied that many men are too hard on their hands, for he found that Out by experience.' -When a young man lie worked for farmers by the month. Wages in the western country are higher than farmers can afford to pay, considering the price of produce. The cheap lands farther west and the railroads are the cause of high prices of labor.

M r; Broadhurst said lie had thought much on the subject of hiring hands. Thinks the matter could be much bet­ter regulated than it now is i f all the farmers in the country would organize themselves into societies. They then could be informed through their socie­ties what the regular prices are that are being paid to hands throughout

'the country. It is best to hire men : with families, for they are generally more steady, and do not run about as much as single men.\ Mr. Sparks remarked that it would not do to establish a certain price and pay all hands the same amount, for some hands are more faithful and skill­ful than others and should therefore receive a larger amount for their ser­vices;

Mr. RouglYstated that he had con­siderable experience in hiring hands. Said ho thought it best when a farmer found a good hand to, keep him for several years, or as long as he wished to work out. Had kept one hand about four years. It will not do to establish a fixed price to be paid to all hands, neither will the ten hour sys­tem of labor answer on the farm dur­ing the summer season. His plan of laboring is to get to work early in the morning and quit early at night.

Mr. Franklin said his experience in hiring hands had not been very satis­factory. Would like to learn some plan o f obtaining hands that could be depended on, and Would earn enough to equal the amount, required for their services. Is of the opinion that, it would be better for employers and hands 'to hire by the 'year instead of six or eight months as they now do. Thinks foreigners make more faithful and steady hands than Americans, be­cause they have been raised to habits of industry and economy at home.

Dr. Roe said he depended very much upon hired help to cairy on his farm. Always hires a mail with a family 6y the year, which is much bet­ter than employing single men. Em­ployers should endeavor to make their hired help feel' more interest in their work. • The wages o f hired hands are rather-higher than they should be. I f farmers were more' united they might regulate the prices o f labor. A* pres­ent the man who hires least is the- best off. E v e r y --armer should: raise their owe nolp, and so treat their chil­dren that they will see it is for their interest to stay at home. On the farm is the best place in the world to raise boys and girls i f we would have them in after life make healthy and useful members of society.

Mr. Harding thinks the labor ques­tion has many important points, hut is satisfied that the supply and de­mand o f labor will regulate the price the- same as anything else. There, should bo -an - average price paid to hands throughout the country, and there might be more uniformity estab­lished in prices if farmers were more united.

The question for debate at the next meeting of the Club, which is to he held Saturday, Feb. 1 st, is the follow­ing : It is resolved that speciality in farming is preferable to mixed husbandry. That is, it would he more profitable and better for a person - -devote their a tten d " - . b.ranc“0f -suck as the raising ofu-uit, stock or grain, than to endeavorto raise the whole of them, together.

It is now rumored that the brake- man who was so severely - injured at the depot yesterday, may possibly re­cover.— We are glad to hear that S. M. Beeson, Esq-,, who has been quite seriously sick for several days past, is now fast recovering.— It may seem incredible at first thought, but we have it from good authority that eight feet o f snow has fallen in this vicinity so far during the present season. J. P. Vedder* Esq., o f Berrien Springs, has kept a record, and gives the in­formation.— -The Catholic Eair last week was a decided success finan­cially, §650.00 being the not receipts. Mr. E. D .

She was on her way from Albion to her father in Kansas, having an en­gagement in one o f the cities of that State to , teach school.— Rev. Mr. Crawford is far more seriously burn­ed and injured than we were at first led to believe; His nervous system has received a shock from which it will slowly, i f i t ever fully recovers, He has also internal injuries whose extent cannot fully be known.
