They mv—Ah I well, suppose they do?
But r»n they prove tbe story true?
Suspicion may sriso from naught
Bnt raslice, envy, want of thought: ^
Why count yourself among the "they"
Who whisper w hat they dare not say ?
They say-hut why the tale rehearse,
And help to make the matter worse ?
No good can possibly accrue
From telling what may be untrue;
And is it not a nobler plan
To speak of all the best you can ?
They say—well, if it should bo so,
Why need you tell the tale of woe ?
Will i: the better wrong redress,
Or make one pang of sorrow less ?
Will it the erring one restore,
Henceforth to “go and sin no more ?”
They—oh! pause and look within!
See how thy heart inclines to sin .'
Watch lest, in dark temptation's hour
Thou, too, sbouJdat sink beneath its power!
Pity the frail, weep o’er the fall,
But speak of good or not at all!
A Hong Kong correspondent of the Boston
News tells sn interesting incident. He had been
intrusted with a package for a yoong man from
his friend* in the United State*, and, after in
quiry, learned that be might probable be found
in a gambling house. He went thither but not
seeinvhun; determined to wait, in the expecta
tion that he might come in. The place was
bedlam of noiae* non betting angry over their
cards, and frequently coming to blow*. Near
him sat two men—one young, the other forty
years of age. They were betting and drinking
in a terrible way, the cider giving utterance con
tinually to the foulest profanity. Two games
hid been finished, the young man losing each
time. The third game, with fresh bottles of
brandy, had just begun, and the young man
sat lazily back in hia chair, while the cider shuf
fled the cards. Tho young man waa a long time
dealing tho car’s; and the yoong man, looking
carelessly about the room, began to hum a tunc
Ho began to sing the beautiful lines of Phoebe
Cary:
“Oae sweetly solemn thought
Comes to me o’er and o’er
I'm nearer to my Father’s bouse,
Than I’ve ever been before.
‘Nearer the bound of life,
Where we lay our burdens down,
Nearer leaving my cross,
Nearer wearing my crown.”
•U lirsl, says Uw writer, those words in «
\ ilo place luado wo shudder. A Sabbath school
hymn in a gambling den! But while the young
man sang, tho elder stopped dealing the cards,
stared at the singer a moment, and throwing the
cards on tho floor, exclaimed:
‘Harry, where did you learn that tune?’
‘What tone?’
‘Why the ono you've been singing.’
Tho man said he did not know what he had
been singing, when the cider repeated the words,
with tears in his eyes, and tho young man said
ho had learned them in a (Sunday school in
America.
•Come, said the elder, getting up; ‘come’ Har
ry, here’s what I’ve won from you; go and use
it for some good purpose. As tor me, as God
t*** me I've played my last game and drank my
last bottle. I have misled you, Harry, and I
am sorry. Give me your hand my dear boy,

THE FRENCH CATS.
Sow tho Zouaves do their Fighting—
They Carry Cats on their Xnapsacfcs
—Tho Cats Charge the Enemy. and
Act as Guides.
[Erom the Sunday World. ]
France possesses several special or ex
tra corps entirely distinct from the regu
lar army, the Notional Guard, or the ma
rines. ‘One of them, and perhnp* the
mos peculiar and eccentric, are the Zou
aves, tho African or original Zouaves,
who in time of peace, are always stationed
in Africa, and whose strength there is
about 12,000 men, and the Zouaves imites
or imitation Zouaves, who are armed,
equipped and drilled like the original
corps, but do not possess the name per
fection in inanwuvering, Ac. The lat
ter are only stationed a part of the time
in Africa; the greater part they are sta
tioned in various parts of France. In
their armament the Zouaves differ mate
rially from tho regular infantry, particu
larly in their bayonets, which liavo the
shape of scythes, and their side arm,
which is the Algerian yataghan—that is,
the peculiar short sword of the Kabyles,
also, in so far that they prefer to use their
own private revolvers.
No one can become a Zouave who
not a born Frenchman, and a very large
number of them are recruited among the
Paris loafers and gamins. Their drilling
comprises, besides the usual military evo
lutions, more particularly also gymnastic,
and no one can serve among them for any
length of time who is notan accomplished
and perfect swimmer, jumper and clim
ber. Their style of fighting differs ac
cordingly from that of the regular infant
ry. They make no bayonet attacks in
closed lines, bnt spread themselves out so
as to have more room for striking about
with their bayonets, and they enter the
enemy’s lines on the fall run with large
bounds.
One of their eccentricities is their love
for cats, and they prefer as pets the large
gray and black cat of Algeria. The
training of these cats is admirable. They
know not only all the soldiers, but also
their four-footed comrades belonging to
the same battaUion, and easily pick out
their own masters under all circumstan
ces. They are very obedient to them,
and not only on the march, bnt also in
battle, take up their positions on their
knapsacks—from winch position they
participate in the fight according to their
own peculiar style, by jumping into the
face oi the enemy, and scratching and
biting in a furious manner. During the
Crimean war the wounds in the faces of
the Russian soldiers from these cats were
so serious and numerous that they bad to
establish at Odessa a separate ward in the
hospital for the better healing of them.
In climbing up and attacking a rocky
height, the Zouaves command their cats
to the front to lead the way, and carefully
watching the way the cats take, they fol
low them closely, and taking advantage
of every foothold pointed out by their
trusty and agile comrades.

The lady was natarally indignant at this

ported the incident to her brothers, who
determined to avenge the insult by con
dign chastisement Yesterday morning
the two brothers started on their chival-
expedition, one of them being armed
with a cowhide, and the other having a
revolver in his pocket, which, however,
it was not his intention to use except in
emergency. They arrived at the Doc
tor’s office and found that gentleman
there sitting in company with a stalwart
friend.
“Are yon Dr. ?” inquired one
of the brothers, addressing the physician.
‘I am, sir,” was the reply.
Then, sir; I am come to thrash yon for
insulting my sister the other day.”
And immediately the Doctor felt the
sharp blows of the cowhide descending
fast and thick npon liis shoulders. The
demonstration, os may be supposed,
raised a row. The Doctor straggled with
his antagonist, while bis friend sprang to
his feet and pitched into to rescue him.
The disengaged brother drew a revolver,
and told him to stay where he was or a
ballet would stop his advance. At
this juncture the young lady’s father,
who, suspecting the nature of liis son’s
excursion, had followed them, appeared
npon the scene. Seeing a big man ap
parently about to rash upon one of the
boys, he seized a chair and struck the
Doctor’s friend a violent jjblow, breaking

business brought the hostilities to a close,
and the wounded man was attended to.

Baby who camo bat a month ago ?
How many pounds from the crowning curl
To the rosy point ef the restless toe?*’
Grand father tie* the ’kerchief* knot,
Tenderly guides the swinging weight,
And carefully over hia glasses peeps
To read the record, “ only eight.”
Softly the echo goes around;
The father laughs at tho tiny girl,
The fair young mother aings the words,
While grandmother smooths tho golden cnrL
And stooping above the preclone thing,
Nestlfih a kiss with a prayer,
Murmuring softly, “little one,
Grandfather did not weigh you fair.”
Nobody weighed tho baby’s smile,
Or the love that came with the helpless one,
Nobody weighed the threads of care.
From which a woman’s life is span.
No index tells the mighty worth
Of little baby’s quiet breath,.
A soft, unceasing metronome,
Patient and faithful onto death.
Nobody weighed the baby’s soul,
For her on earth no weight there be
That could avail: God only knows
Its value in eternity.
Only eight pounds to hold a soul,
That seeks no angel’s silver wing,
Bnt shines in this human gnise,
Within ho small and frail a thing!

From baby’s eyes looks oat a soul
That claim’s a soul in Eden yet.

Last Honrs of A. B. Longstreet
The South Carolina Christian Advocate
copies from a correspondent! of the Sk
Louis Advocate, a note npon the last
hoars of the Rev. A. B. Longstreet, from
which we take the following:
For a vreek previous to his decease, he
had been suffering from a severe attack
of chills, bnt after the first two or three
days rallied so for as to sit up, to read,
and to mte. Late on Wednesday even
ing, the 6th of Jnly, he hod declared his
intention of sitting up through the whole
of the nexf day; bnt early in the morning
he was seized by a chill, which rapidly
developed into pneumonia, and thence
forward he sank rapidly.
His last hours were remarkable, even
for those of a true Chriattan. To within
two days of his death, and while prostra
ted by disease, his aged and trembling
hand were eagerly writing on a work of
religions character, to which the last
part of his life had been devoted. An
ineffable peace settles around him, quiet
ing even the grieved souls about his bed
side. All the numberless moments of
his life, which bad been consecrated by
his remarkable, unhesitating trust in
G od, seemed to gather from the bygone
years, drawing aroand him in the try
ing hoar of death to sustain and
brighten him and his. When ques
tioned respecting his spiritual condition,
raising his hand, he replied, “There is
net a cloud.” So uusliaken was tho re
sponse that lie watched the approach of
death with the carious iuterest of one
making a new and important chemical
analysis, rather than with the tremulous
apprehension of one about to enter an
unknown and nwfni hereafter.
The parting of the sonl and the body
was an event which had long been antici
pated, and which for years he had made
the topic of his doily conversation.—
When the time come, with a wonderful
lucid mind, and he gave the closest scru
tiny to the loosing of every tio which uni
ted the two; and is very doubtful whether
any soul of the million departed can tell
more of the rationale of death tlmn that
of Jndge Longstreek With his own fin-
gers he counted the failing pulse. When
he could no longer move his hand he
made one of his attendants place it on
bis wrist, and, looking around on the
loved ones he was leaving, he quietly ex
claimed, “Almost gone.” At 4 o’clock
in the afternoon, and without pain he ex
pired with the light of a glorious smile
playing over his face.
«-rta some time since the drawer lias had a
Hnnchaasenism. To the thoughtfullness of a
Drayton correspondent wo are indebted for the
following:
An old English gentleman s school-teacher,
who some years ago resided in ono of tho
small towns ol Ohio, was sn agreeable teller of
stories, but deemed it beneath his reputation os
a raconteur to tc II ono that did not surpass any
that had preceded it. A farmer having come te
the village remarked in tho presence of his
friends, that he’d been plowing all the week with
four horses, breaking np new ground, and dwelt
open it as being a very “ big thing.” “Pshaw p
said the Englisman, “that's nothing. I have
seen in England fifty yoke of rxen hitched to
one plow Y* The remark seemed to occasion
general surprise. “And,” continued he, “ the
hmniest part of the whole thing was, that while
the plow was on tho top of one hill, tho leading
yoke of oxen was on top of another lull, and the
forty-nine between the plow and the leaders
wero^suspended between tlie two hills! And
there was another matter connected with it
rather strange. In the course or the day
the plowman, becoming rather cureless about
driving his team, ran into and split a big
oak stump! The plow passed,safely through
tho Hplit, hut before the plowman got entirely
through it closed up and eau&bt him by the
coat-tail!” “Did it tear his coat?” asked a
person of inquiring turn. “Not» hit of itl” re
plied our veracious narrator; “he 1 mug on

The Nathan Mu refer-—A Cine. *
A gentleman boarding in the Fifth
Avenue Holel has made a statement to
Superintendent ^Jonrdan which may yet
serve to clear up much of the mystery
surrounding the murder. For obvious
reasons only the outline of the statement
given:
At 10 o’clock on Thursday night Mr.'
Nathan, then on his way home, stopped
at tiie Filth Avenne Hotel, and, after a
business consultation with the gentleman
above referred to bade him good night
and started for his residence. The inter
view was held in the main hall of the
hotel, and while Mr. Nathan and he were
conversing the gentleman declares that
he saw a man intently watching them.
When Mr. Nathan left the stranger
followed him. The gentleman’s suspi
cious were nor aroused until the following
morning, after he heard the news of hia
friend’s death. He has a description of
the stranger, and is certain that he
would be able to recognize him
crowd.
There are other slight threads which
the detectives are quietly but steadily
weaving in to a web of evidonce almost
certain ere long to fix the crime upon the
man who committed ik In the meantime
they suggest, with good reason, that the
press indulge as little os possible in the
promulgation of theories which, whether
wise, can effect nothing better than delay
in the capture and punishment of the
murderer.
YOCNO NATHAN.
Captain Jonrdan, Captain Kelso, and
Detective Farley, perhaps the three best
detectives iu the country, men of great
experience and sound judgment, give it
as their opinion - that Mr. Nathan was
murdered by a professional burglar, and
not by a novice.
The iron dog was not found by young
Nathan, but by the policeman who first
entered the house at his call. He him
self had been aroused from sleep by his
elder brother, Fredrick.
Ex-President Davis.
Hons. Jefferson Davis and Robert
Toombs were serenaded while in Chatta
nooga reoentiy, and in response to the

antly came forward and said :

Fearful Tragedy in Spain.
A correspondent of the London;Stand
ard of July 9th writes: If Pans and Lon
don have recently been supping ou hor
rors, each more terrible than it3 prede
cessor, I think when your readers have
listened to tho following story they will
allow that Andalusia is not far behind
the two great capitals in affording a tale
oi blood, which in ferocity and dramatic
details ont-Herods the Pantin and Ux
bridge massacre. Ou the outskirts of
Castille de Goardias, a village some eight
leagues from Seville, stands a small un
pretending farm-house, tenanted by a
hitherto thriving and industrious labor
ing man and his wife. They had not
been married very long, and a baby had
just arriv ’d to complete their domestic
happiness. Among the acquaintances of
this young couple were a gypsy and his
wife, with whom they were ou very
friendly terms, the intimacy being cemen
ted Ly business transactions of an im-
porimit nature, the gypsy man being
employed as an agent in the disposal of
the farm prodnee and in the purchase
and sale of animals, etc.
It was therefore, in no way surprising
that on the advent of the little stranger
the gypsy couple solicited the honor of
being its godparents, a request which was
readily granted. The baptismal day
having arrived, the whole household,
with the exception of the mother, who
was, of course, unable to leave the bod,
and gypsy woman, who remained in at
tendance, proceeded to the church, a dis
tance of two miles. After everybody
had left, and sufficient time had been
given ,for the parly to get well out of
hearing, the gypsy woman, armed with
a pistol, approached the bedside of tho
invalid, and threatening her with daath
in case of refusal, demanded of her all
the money that was in the honse. The
poor woman, with rare presence of mind
and without a moment’s hesitation, in
dicated that small fortune was iu the
drawer in the lower part of a chest in an
adjoining room. !No sooner had the
gyj-sy entered this room -to obtain the cash
the invalid jumped out of bed, ran to the
door, secured the woman inside, and seiz
ing her husband's trabuco, or blunder
buss, rushed outside the house, to the
window by which the gypsy might escape
, and, covering her with the gun threaten
ed with instant death if she moved, at
the same time raising load cries for help,
which, unhappily, no one appears to have
heard.
In the meantime the christening party
were now on their return. Meeting two
guarda civile mutual compliments passed
and the soldiers were asked to come to
the farm-house and partake of the modest
fiesta prepared for the occasion. This
proposal and its ready acceptance must
nave somewhat discoucentrated the gypsy
man, for he now proposed to run on be
fore to see that everything was ready
and begged to carry the child so as
to return it the sooner to the bosom of its;
mother. On reaching the house he im
mediately perceived that his deeply laid
design had in somejwav miscarried. Ap
proaching tho woman at the window, he
ordered her to let bis wife go free, or
otherwise he would kill her child. Never
dreaming the man would be so
diabolical, declined. Without another
word the man whipped out his knife^and
with one blow nearly severed the littlo
innocent’s head from its body, and,
tossed the quivering corps upon its
mother.
Maddened by this horrible net, the
woman turned her gun upon tho man
and laid him dead at her fret. The ex
plosion and screams brought the guarda
civile almost instantaneously to the house
one of whom, unlocking the door where
tho gypsy was confined, was at once shot
through the heart by that woman. The
second guarda civile, hearing this second
explosion, Imrridly entered the honse,
and seeing his comrade dead on the floor
and the woman with the still smoking
pistol in her hand, raised his carbine
and dropped her lifeless where she stood.
As otir informant rather curiously ob
serves, this affair has aroused some poblic
attention, on account of the peculiar
circumstances attending it, and giving it
an interest which murders and crimes of
this nature, unfortunately too common
in Andalusia, do not usually com
mand.

A Colored Gibl the Handsomest Wo
vn at Saratoga.—“GO. S..”the en
terprising and interesting correspondent
of the New York Standard writes:
I must close this letter with a some
what startling assertion. _ Tho prettiest
woman in Saratoga is a mulatto girl, a
servant of Mrs. John Hilburne of New
York. Among the mountains of Penn
sylvania they have a tradition that
‘ Wild roved an iudiau girl, bright Alfarata,
Where roll the waters of the blue Juniata’—
who is described as surpassing beautiful.
This girl, whom many persons might call
‘colored’ in derision, is Alfarata’sj coun
terpart. She exhibits the most delicately-
tinted olive, which is relieved and en
hanced by the brightness of her com
plexion. One looks upon her as npon a
picture—an animated statue of s
modern Cleopatra, rather than as
humble offsorjng of ou unfavored
race; who would under no circumstances,
be received as kindly in society by the
bells of Saratoga as the Misses Osborn,
* Vanity Fair,’ showed toward the
swarthy Miss Schwartz, whom they wan
ted their brother George to marry instead
of his own pretty Amelia.”
Gen. Lee.—We are glad to welcome
