July 8th, 1874.
had walked the entire distance from Kan
sas City. She has followed the railroad
track closely and has been fifty days mak
ing the trip. Nearly every conductor and
brakeman on the railroad between Omaha
and Truckee has observed her as they
passed her on their respective trains.
She was very reticent in conversation,
but claimed to have a recreant husband
somewhere in California, whom she was
seeking. Numerous offers were made
her of a ride on the freight trains, all of
which she peremtorily refused. She de
dined trusting herself to the dangers
and uncertainties of railroad travel, and
walked every step of the way.
Her dress consisted of a pair of loose
Turkish trousers, made of canvas, similar
in texture to that used by miners for hose
in hydraulic mining. A woolen sack pro
tected her neck and chest, and a. small
striped shawl was wrapped arou id her
shoulders. In height and size she was
rather below the medium. Her features
were rather coarse, and, as may be sup
posed, severely bronzed by exposure to
the sun and weather. The distance from
Winnemucca to Wadsworth—136 miles
—she made in four days, at the rate of
thirty-four miles, a day. She made
halt in passing through Truckee.
A great many persons here were aware
of her coming, but thought she would not
make her grand entry until about the
middle of the forenoon yesterday; but the
walk of this remarkable predestrian was
“mysterious and past finding out," and
she strode on ahead of time, arriving here
at such an early hour that scarcely half a
dozen were able to take observations of
the event.
It had been the intention to give this
wonderful woman a sort of triumphant
reception in Truckee (and surely the oc
casion warranted it,) but she stole the
march on us and passed along rapidly,
silently, and determinedly, as if bent on
an important mission, the fulfillment of
which admitted of no delay, circumlocu
tion, speech making, nor public recep*
tions. The case is, we venture to say,
one of the most singular on record.—
Truckee Republican
MILLEDGEVILLE, GEORGIA, JULY 29, 1874.
F
Courtship.
Marriage is an institution all over the
world, but only a portion of mankind
condescend to courtship. Among the
civilized communities of the East you
may court after you are wedded, but are
not allowed to court her ,re, and you see
your wife for the first time at the wed
ding breakfast. In the south of Europe
the sweet intercourse of betrothed coup
les is much restricted; and in France it
is considered improper to leave them
alone—we allude here, of course, to con
ventional society. Northern nations are
generally more free.
Perhaps the most easy arrangement is
that prevailing in Canada. There you
may have courtship without any idea of
marringe^or at least such an approach to
courtship as is comprehended in the in
tercourse with your “muffin,” that is to
say, the young lady upon whom you are
in especial attendance for the season.
This intercourse would perhaps be more
appropriately included under the head of
flirtation: but it lacks an important ele-
mens of flirtation in being thoroughly
understood. It is, however, clearly on
the way to courtship: for “marrying your
muffin is no uncommon proceeding in
Canada, as is practically tested among
many officers of her Majesty's forces ser
ving in that country.
Many people will tell you that your
courting days are the happiest of your
life. People say the same of the days of
childhood. The safest answer in cither
case is that some find them so and some
do not. The-position is certainly anoma
lous and exceptional, granting, of course,
that a man's heart is in the situation, and
that he is not merely influenced, as it has
been cynically said that most men arc in
seeking the married state, by an abstract
desire to provide board and lodging for
a young lady. He has renounced much
of his interest in the world of other peo
pie, and is living in a world of his own,
which is as yet but a preparatory state
of existence. He has a domestic resi
dence in the ideal, but it is as yet uufmr
nished, and the tim
taking possession.
Roots and Shoes.
The choice of boots and shoes is one ol
the most difficult tasks in domestic econo
my. From want of knowledge ard bad
taste in this particular, manv a foot hat
been ruined and many a life lost, not to
mention the discomfort consequent on
corns.'
The foot in its natural state is a wonder-
fully-contrived arch, the bases of which
are the heel and the joints of the toes with
the foot. On the summit of this arch is
placed the whole weight of the body, and
beneath it is a strong sinew attached to
heel and toe, which prevents the arch
from liecoming flat when the pressure
from above is exerted, as in walking, stan
ding, etc: on the outer side the bones
shelve down so as to give greater sup
port, and on the inner side is placed the
great toe, the prime lever in our progres
sive movements. The foot in this form
is seldom seen except in those who do
not wear shoes or boots, or in those who
exercise their judgment in the selection.
Many nations have found it convenient
to go without any covering or protection
for the feet, but others as the Arabs,
wear - sandals to protect the sole from the
heat and sand; and the Indian wears his
moccasin both for warmth and as a pro
tection from the brambles of his native
woods. Europeans and the more highly
civilized peoples of the globe have long
since lost sight of comfort and protec
tion. and now have cases made for the
feet which follow some strict rule of an
absurd fashion-
A good foot-covering should be made
on the model of the foot—a broad, flat
3ole, not a fraction narrower than the
broadest part of the foot, and of moder
ate thickness, to protect it from damp, ;
heat, or cold ; a heel not more than half
an inch think, in proportion to the role,
to compensate for the arch, which would
otherwise bo destroyed. This heel should
not be put to shoes at all. The upjiers
should be of soft leather, so that every
movement of the foot may take place in
its natural sequence and without impedi-

She Cheerful Heart.
“The world is ever as we take it,
And life, dear child, is what we make it.”
Thu? spoko agrandain, bent with care,
To little Mabel, flushed and fair.
But little Mabel took no heed that day
Of what she heard her grandam say.
Years after, when no more a child,
Her path in life seemed dark aud wild,
Back to her heart the memory came
Of the quaint utterance of the dame:
“The woi Id, dear child, is as we take it,
And life, be sure, is what we make it."
She cleared her brow, and smiling thought,
“'Tiseven as the good soul taught!
And hall my woes thus quickly enred,
The other half may be endured.”
No more her heart its shadow wore;
She grew a little child ones more.
A little child in love and trust,
She took the world (as we,too, must)
In happy mood; and lo! it grew
Brighter and brighter to her view.
She made of life (as we, too, should)
A joy; and lo! all things were good,
And fair to her, as iu God's sight,
When first he said, “Let there be light.”

If we would but check the speaker.
When he spftils his neighbor’s fame ;
If we would but help the erring,
Ere we utter words of blame,
If we would, bow many might wo
Turn from paths of sin and shame I
Ah, the wrongs that might be righted,
It we would but see tlie way 1
Ah, the pains that might be lightened,
Every hour ami every day.
If we would but hear the pleadings
Of the hearts that go astray.
Lot us step outside the stronghold
Of our selfishness and pride;
Let us lift our fainting brother*—
Let us strengthen ere we chide;
Let as. ere we blame the fallen,
Hold a light to cheer and guide.
Ah, how blessed—ah, how blessed 1
Earth would be, if we'd but try
Thus to aid and right the weaker.
Thus to check each brother’s sigh;
Tims to talk of duty’s pathway
To our better life on high.
In each life, however lowly,
There are seeds of mighty good:
Still, we shrink from souls appealing,
With a timid “If we could; '
But a God who juJgsth al! things
Knows the truth is, “If we would.”
Mr. A. 9. Stewart—His Sixteenth
Voyage on the Atlantic.
Mr. A. T. Stewart sailed in the Scotia
Friday on bis sixteenth trip across the
Atlantic. He was accompanied by ex-
Judge Hilton. He took the same state
room and seat at the table tbat he had on
liis last trip in the same steamer just a
year ago. Several magnificent floral trib
utes were sent on board and put on the
table in hi6 rdDm just before the vessel's
departure. The dry goods millionaire
travelled in an ordinary suit, and carried
less luggage than a fifteen year old board
ing school miss. Mr. Stewart will remain
abroad until October. He will visit his
dry goods palaces in England and on
the Continent, and will also make a tour
of the watering places in France and Ger
many. His trip is some what remarkable
lor a person of his age. He is in his seven
tv-first year, and has been for some time
ill. Among his fellow- voyagers in the
Beotia were Mr. R. B. Min turn, J. A.
Fithia’» v and the Rev. John Hughes.
Thomas Opllins, who was in jail in
Providence, R. X, on a requisition from
the governor of Ulumri .charged with
‘eonspira^y,’’ made his escape with the
conni\ -ye of outside parties, and Almira
F. Coll -V; his w ifo, was arrested on the
charge of assisting in the escape. The
Base was brought before the grand
on the Savannah
river, Georgia was in the habit of send
ing his negroes down the river to fish
with nets as the tide served. On one
occasion two of his boys reached the fish
ing-ground before the tide had fallen suf
ficiently for their purposes. Cuffee al
ways goes to sleep when he has nothing
else to do. So, pushing, a pole into the
mud, they tied the canoe thereto, and, ly
ing down, intended to sleep till the tide
settled. But along came a huge devil
fish, which grabbed up the pole, and,
tucking it under his flipper, began to tow
the canoe and its contents toward the
deep water. When the negroes awoke
they were terrified well-nigh out of their
wits. They were proceeding to sea at
the rate of about four miles an hour, but
the power propelling was invisible. The
first impulse was to jump overboard, but
it occurred to them in time, fortunately,
that they wore unable to swim. Finally
the rope by which master devil-fish was
towing them was cut. and they reached
the land in a pitiable state of terror. An
individual of this sjmeies has been known
to take up the kedge of a small schooner
and carry it for upward of a.mile, towing
the vessel that distance, when he drop
ped the anchor, apparently fatigued with
the amusement.—Galaxy for June.
Some farmers may ask “of what use is
the culture of flowers ? They can give
us neither food nor drink, nor clothing ;
neither do they make us any return in
money value. Why do you urge upon
our wives and daughters to cultivate
them—to spend their time upon things
which cannot aid us in our daily labor 1
Tulips, ‘pinies,’ lioneysuckles, roses and
lilies aro well enough for those who have
nothing else to do but look at them, but
we are working folks and can’t have such
luxuries.”
We reply that God has scattered flow
ers everywhere with a most lavish hand,
and that their presence tends to elevate,
refine and gladden the heart. Oh! friends,
good food and drink and fine clothes, are
not the chief end of our lives. Jesus
Christ pointed to the lillies of the field,
to enforce his words upon his disciples:
and we of these later days learn lessons
of patient submission .and endurance, in
contemplating the beautiful flowers.—
And when we plant and lend them, they
rejoice our senses, invigorate our souls,
and in their perfume and loveliness we
forget the toils of the day—forget the
loneliness of our lives, our burdens and
our fears. Therefore we beg of every
man to give his wife and daughters a
small plot of land for the growing of
flowers, and we can assure him that soon
he will take as much pride in them, as in
his potato and corn fields, his orchards or
his vineyards.
The cost of a few flower seeds, a few
bedding out plants, is but small, but the
benefits they will bestow cannot be num
bered, because many of them work upon
the unseen forces of both heart and soul.
Plant but a rose, a geranium or a helio
trope, and learn how closely the love of
it will twine around your heart. June is
the month of roses—the queen of flow
ers, but they must be well fed to bloom
in perfection. In the Spring dig in with
a small iron fork or trowel, (even an iron
spoon will make a good gardening imple
ment,) a little richness in the form of
thoroughly decayed manure to their roots
and soon the summer rains will wash out
the nutrition it contains, and it will be
returned to you in sweet rose buds and
flowers.
The Black Hii.i.s Expedition.—That
the military expedition to the Indian
country of the Black Hills is made against
the earnest protest of Bishop Hare,
speaks badly for its necessity and its pol
icy. If any man knows these Indians
the Bishop docs, as he has been a faith
ful laborer in the Northwest among the
tribes for many years, and has establish
ed a flourishing Irnlhiu college there. We
find it intimated, moreover, in a valued
exchange, the Boston Post, that there is
a “ring” behind the movement. The
Black Hills are the sacred lands of the
Sioux, made so by tradition and by the
rude law of the tribe. White men have
endeavored by every means to penetrate
tbftf. region, even by marriage and adop
tion into the tribe, bnt uniformly with
out success. So earnest has been this
seclusion on the part of the Sioux that
the absolute prohibition of entrance to
all white men was made the first condi
tion of the Laramie Treaty of 1868. The
sight of nuggets of gold in possession
of the Sioux, and of necklaces of gold
scales, has increased the desire of fron
tiersmen to reach this region of supposed
fabulous weath, and this is about to be
gratified at considerable cost. The equip
ments are all of the latest pattern, and
most costly kind, with one hundred and

in a kind of purgatory, buf a purgatory
made pleasant and illumined with the
best prospects in the future. He has
passed the point of dreamy hopes and
fears experienced while uncertain, and
may never have felt the passionate aban
donment which comes from being oppos
ed. He is a rational man, with his course
of true love running smooth—as it does
continually, notwithstanding an assertion
to the contrary put by the poet into the
mouth of a person with exceptional exper
ience. He is, in fact, playing the part of
a married man cn amateur.
It is an awful state to be in, that of
lovers in the exaltation of their selfish
ness. For of course lovers are the most
selfish people on earth. It has been said
that the reason why lovers take such
pleSfcure in one another’s society is that
they always talk about themselves. But
the kind-hearted Frenchman who, in an
epigrammatic spirit, allowed himself to
make remarks of this nature would have
been the first to admit that the selfish
ness is of a dual kind. Yet love is some
times selfish in a single sense—there is
such a thing as loving because one is lov
ed ; and if gratitude has anj thing to do
with the matter, the love can scarcely be
spontaneous or disinterested—it is very
distinct from worship, which is the high
er and rarer influence
Yon lead a pleasant moonsbining life,
entirely cut off from the rest of the world
and dwell so much in dream-land that res
ality seems a misguided existence. What
sweet confidences you have with your
charmer! For you she has renounced
the world and her hitherto nearest ties.
Her parents are only institutions, her
brothers are bores, and her sisters super
fluities. They will be nearer to her when
she has settled down into her changed
condition of life; but the misty mysterious
moonshine of her transitofy state is in
sufficient to light up more than one ob
ject. The girl, too, becomes more of the
man than the man is of the giri. He has
probably pursuits apart which separate
him somewhat; she has nothing to divert
her. and in a properly regulated state
ought to surrender her whole soul. She
lias still friends of her own sex, but they
are not quite the same to her as they
were; and among men she is regarded
from an entirely different point of view,
notwithstanding that the said men might
have had no aspirations to marry her
even were she free. Li society, as in the
world generally, the betrothed are peo
ple apart, and prefer the moon as a med
ium for viewing things in general to any
amount of enlightenment afforded by so
literal a luminary as the sun. Theirs is
a delightful dream, and happiest are those
who dream on the longest, and delay
most, if they do not altogether avert, the
waking up which is apt to bring disillus
ionment.
The saddest kind of courtship must
be those of couples who do not care a-
bout one another. It is easy enough to
make people believe that you love them
lens than you do, but very difficult to
make then believe that you love them
more. To spend weeks or months or even
years of your life in attempting tho task
—it must be a martyrdom, and nobody
would endure it except for money, unless
they happen to be kings and queens, and
cannot help themselves on other grounds.
The courtships of crowned heads must
be dull affairs, by-the-way, when reasons
of state alone dictate the match. AYhcn
partners are chosen for instead of by one
another, nature usually protests by ren
dering the match distasteful. It depends
on circumstances whether your courting

your life.

nally we came to a court, one of the twen
ty, where were carriages and footmen in
livery, but how they ever found their way
thither I dare not conjecture. Beyond
the court the chambers were more splen
did than the last. New guards and pages,
in new uniforms and liveries, moved to
and fro through the endless suits of
rooms, and kept everything in a gentle
state of commotion. Here we left our
cloaks and hats; here we took our rosaries
and tokens in hand, and pressed from one
chamber to another, perhaps waiting a
few moments in each room while my com
panion spoke to gentlemen in waiting,
clothed in crimson satin and looking very
impressive indeed. Rooms that were
frescoed to the very floors finally gave
place to rooms hung with splendid tapes
tries of inestimable value. It began to
look like business. The chambers were
heated with the great brazen pots of coals
such as one meets with in all the Italian
galleries and in the churches, where the
churches are heated at all. Those bra-
called scaldiiii—look a little
heathenish,and arenone the less interest
ing for that reason. They are big enough
for human sacrifices, some of them, but
they are seldom Lot enough to hurt.
In the Sort at long Branch.
The gossipy Long Branch correspon
dent of the New York World writes:
From the Ocean House come six or
eight tender minxes with bundles, look
ing cautiously behind them. They pick
their way down the steps, accompanied
by their guardian of safe anil proper age,
and are watched from the bank by their
mother and aunt in evening dress. There
are at this time no more than fifteen peo
ple, all told, on tlie whole stretch of sand
from Sandy Hook to the West End. The
minxes disappear in the disreputable
shanties that are meant for dressing cases
and presently they emerge in woolen
blouses and “pants,” holding each other’s
hands and emitting little sen ams as the
soft, white sand touches their feet, and
looking around to see that nobody is
photographing them.
One can see their fragile bodies shiver,
even from the top of the bank, when they
step with bated breath and anxious looks
into the white spume that is rolling and
foaming up the breach. Two or three
steps and they are ankle deed in the ocean.
At that an amorous wave, swollen with
desire, make at them. They see it com
ing; the clasp of their hands tightens;
they take a deep breath, the defiance of
their sex is in their eyes, but the weakness
of their sex is in their vertebrae, and they
bend their knees and bow their heads,
and the ravishing element breaks over
them with a wet embrace, hugs them a
moment in foaming paroxysm, and then
goes broken and bellowing to fling itself
in reckless delight upon the sands where
their feet have trod.
- Injustice is very hard to bear; yet we
must all learn to expect it, and to suffer
it as calmly as we can.
One thing is clear, that no indulgence
of passion destroys the spiritual nature
