Jacob tlio younger had once expressed a desire In attend soliool out of town; hut Storm, senior, killed his ambition in Unit respect with a few words. Tlio old red Bchool-houso was good enough for your father and your graud- father, and when you got all you can there, i’ll find plenty of work for you; It shan't ho said that one ot the old Storm Ulood ever hired out to work for stran gers."

Hancock on tho ground that it will bring Sothern trade and prosperity to that city. They point to New York city, with its promise or 70,000 Democratic majori ty and Its immense Southern trade, as a caso in view. Two convicts have been discharged from tho Ontario State prisou, after serv ing two years, becauso of undoubted jiroof that they wore innocent of tho bur glary of which a jury had found them guilty. Tho caso against them rested on tho perjured testimony of a policeman whoso motive was revenge. Senator Blaine Bays Grant has ‘made a mistake" in Ills malicious assault upon Gen. Hancock. Tho Maiuo Sena- ator is right for once in his life—Grant’s attack on Ilancook’s record ns a soldier, which tho senator says “is beyond criti cism,"will lose Garfield tens of thousands of votes all over tho north. It will be a surprise to a largo number of our American womeu to bo told that tho wliito wax, of which they mako sueli constant use when engaged in their house hold sewing, is the diseased secretion of a peculiar species of lly found in the east ern portions of Central China, Most of our country women, if they have given a thought to the subject, have supposed that this while wax wns some refined product of beeswax, an nrtictc that 1ms about it the conditions of cleanliness and hcnlth- fulncss, which is more than can be said of exudation ot insects due to some bodily malady. These flics apparently become diseased from feeding ou the leaves of a peculiar kind of evergreen treo or shrub, of which they nro exceedingly fond. Tho twigs of these trei s in cerlnin seasons of tho year arc thickly covered with flies, who, in time, leavo upon them a thick in crustation of vMlito matter. When tills Is cul 01T anU lmmcrBcd in boiling wator, which causes tho wax to como to the sur face iu tiie shape of a viscid substance, which is skimmed off, cleansed, and after ward allowed to cool in pans. The trade in this article is quite an cxlcusivo one, ns it is estimated that last year tho crop wns wortli not less than 83,260,000, A Remarkable Family. A Soutli Carolina patrinch is Mr. Win. Smoak, of Orangeburg, who boasts, per haps, the largest family in tlio United States. He is of Gorman extraction, and, having been born in 1784, is now iu his 07lh year. He has had thirteen children, ten of whom are still living, the oldest being now 75 years of age aud the youug- cst 50. These thirteen childrcu have brought into tho world 130 children, 104 of whom aro now living, aud these have had 400 children, of whom 391 are now alive. There liavo also been 79 children of the fourth generation of Mr. Smoak’s decendant’s, of whom all but nino are now alive. Thus the old man has 575 living decendants, and lias also seen 110 others, who nro now dead. The most re markable feature of the caso is the fact that both tlio old mnu and his wifo (tlio latter is now dead) lived to see their thir teenth nnd youngest child a grandmother. The entire family have been known in tlio community where they now livo for sixty years, nnd tlicrolins never been a crimin al or a druuknrd among them. Salfio's room was not so _bad after all; and wonry, but a stout heart uml a Btroug will kept her up. At night sho wns very busy, her music and studies decupled n u xx„ came home for n vacation. One of tlio guyest, brightest, prettiest girls in town wns Sallio Bivors. Her father lmd a poorer farm auil lower bonds than his neighbor Jacob Storm, but tho Rivers family worshipped auothor idol. From the mother down, every ono valued a good education. The father had been de nied it, as lie was tho oldest of a largo family, and compelled to aid In support ing the rest. He was a nmn 1 of oxcellout natural ability, and extravagantly fond of rending. When Ills boys nnd girls-grew around him, they heard important topics discussed nt tlio table; they knew all about Congress and. our relations with foreign powers, nnd once Mr. .Rivers had been culled upon to represent his town in tiie legislature of tlio Stnto. ' . The hoys of tiie fhmlly were compelled to work tlioir way through college, aud Sallio the jovial was determined to follow their example. No wonder Jacob StornivJmiior, ndnrod Sallio. He had lived near bee for years, had carried her dinner-pail back aud forth for her, had purposely mispelled words to let her pass above him, nnd in all her mnddest pranks, lie lmd rejoiced while others blamed, Sallie’s brothers were fond of her, nnd never for ono mo ment thought it cither uiilady-llko or sin ful for her to share nil tlieir sports. When ono of the neighbors gave n party, the vorbnl iuvitntion wns generally, “Sal lio and Hie rest of the boys." Sallio liked it; sho was full ot hounding life; Blie hated silly airs; and ns her brothers were, With ouc oxception, older than herself, surely it"Was quite proper for her to do as they did. When Tom wrote homo from college that his dear little sister “must notjio out in the hot sun, or she might spoil lior complexion," Sallio Iwrpto back, ‘tDon’t bothor, you denr old maid. I care more for good, sound health limn anything else; nnd those who really love mo won’t mind a few freckles." Sallio went on in her own way; she flew from one and to the othor of tho large farm-house, how singing a In her rebellious little heart'sho wns saying, "1 will go for (he sake or tlio old aud my childhood’s friend, but poor form sat tho eollogo president, with sev eral distinguished gonllomvu. Tho speak er’s fiipo was,partly hidden by tlio desk orp him. Wllon ho rose nt last, leal 's lipitrt giivu a quick bound; Ibr tH6ro before her stood her neighbor, irtend mid lover. Ho did not soom to seo hor; his subject igrossod Ids entire attention. Sallio lis tened with ploasiiro. The physical train ing of tlio past added strength to his mon- tal acquirements, nnd his clear manly voice charmed all listeners. ‘,‘Isn’t lie lino looking?’’ , v . - "Wlmt a splendid typo, of man- ” said another. “He understands one. During a heated political canvass mud is thrown nt good and bad men in discriminately. The difference is that it Bticks to the bad and docs not stick to tho good. Gen. Grant ought to have thought of this truism beforo ho commenced sling ing his mud at Gen. Hancock. This sort ot warfare always reacts. There is trouble in tlio giant planet Jupiter. A great spot, estimated to bo eighteen thousand miles in diameter, is conspicuous on tiie planet’s disc. It lias been visible for two years, although its nppearnneo has not boon generally known until recontly. Thoonly explanation thus far given is thatlthcro is a rent in the cloudy covering of Jupiter, revealing tho red hot body of tho planet. It is more than probable that in tho mighty chang es going on in Jupiter wo are witnessing tlio phenomena of world-growth, nnd that the giant planet is slowly undergoing, un der onr very eyes, the modifications ncc cssary to fit it for habitation.

Secretary Sherman evidently ap preciates tlio situation—ho scents defeat in tiie atmosphere to his party in Novem ber. In a recent speech ot Chicago ho said tho elections in Ohio nnd Indiana raeautnothiug-tlmt the republicans would need every vote thoy could got next month, and warned them to go to work. John is right—radicalism 1b in danger, old an them. Jacob Storm had-once called her “Will-o’-the-wisp," and tlio namo fitted hor so well, tho hoys took it up. Tho wildest colt on tho farm would obey Sal- lie; Bhc feared nothing, went and came ns sho pleased, nnd nctnmi'llslied in ono morning more work than her mother nnd ITulday tho maid could possibly do together. Naturally, tills warm-hearted, nctive, cheerful girl wns thb light of her father’s eyes, lie could not send hor away from home, like tlio boys, not even'for tho cov eted education. For throe yoars in hor toons, she bore tlio restraint ns meekly ns possible; but tho fourth year could not bo borne. How much the girl suffered In secret, no ono knew, “Father," sho said one day ns sho sprang from hoi- saddlo, “my mind is made up. 1 shall go into the mill, nnd earn money enough to at tend school.’’ “But mother can’t Bparo you, daugh ter.” “Mother is willing," said Sallio; “sho always wanted to study herself.” "Well, wo seem to need you here, somehow, ” said tlio old gentleman, strok ing tiie colt's neck to hide His feelings, “Yes, fntlicr, nnd you shall liavo me. can work -hard, nnd como home to spend every vacation; aud won’t you bo glad to see me?” Air. Rivers led tlio colt away, and did not answer. “Why uot?" ho said to himself; “why shouldn’t sho have a fair chance? I sup pose I might sell off tho meadow to old Storm, nnd send my only girl away in good shnpc; but it will spoil the farm and I liato to." lie could not think of tho house with out hor; lie dreaded tho loug wiutoroven- ings, nnd tho warm summer days, with out his darling; aud nt Inst ho sat down in one corner of the barn on nil old grind stone, which Sallio lmd turned often for him. He sat there for a long tlmo, try iug to overcome Ills selfishness; ami nt last, as lie heard tiie girl's ringing voice calling him to Buppcr, ho roso up, saying, “Slio’s my only girl; and sho shall liavo a oNance, come what will." The boys wore delighted. Thoy were proud of Sallio, and qulto sure sho would do herself aud tlio family oredlt. To bo sure, Tom’s pride wns hurt when lie heard she wns to work in the mill nt Glen- mere; but tlio new liousq which Tom had urged Ills father to build/ had cost more than they expected; and every yoar somo new machinery must be purchased. It was twenty miles to Glehmerc; but Sal- lie did not falter. To bi| sure, it was a trial to leave them all, a. hard thing tosc- lect from her little storoi of girl’s belong ings; nnd a small ronnt in a boarding house would never afl'ori tho delight that licr own largo, sunny eh nnber did. Sal lio felt a thousand tears, but.she did not shed ono, although her i lother and IIul- dnh wept prolusely ns ti e carriago drove away, with Sallie’s fall or on tho back sent with her, aud Jneol Storm in front With Sallie’s brother Dil e.

IIo did not choose to listen wl on Jacob Storm told him that Sallio was too wiso and loo good to remain buried in Putnoyvillo. Dike wns sixteen, and nt that ago a boy considers everything n “burning shamo’ which interferes with his pleasure. “I wish I lmd her clmuco,’’ said Jncob, ns Hie falhee (fhd daughter talked iu low tones on tiie buck seal. “Great cbntico,” said Dike, “to go dowu there and work among all sorts, and never have any music evenings, or any home, or—" hike pnused; his feelings wore too much for him, aud yet lip would not lot Jake Storm sco u tear In Ills eyes. fellow boarders, but Sallio politely dfl' dined. A room-mate wns impossible, ns sho desired to spond all her spare moments in preparation for her future work. About this timo she wroto to Tom: “Itlsalmrd grind, denr old hoy; and somotimes, when my head whirls about with tiie noise, or tlio nssooiatioDs vex mo, I feel like rtm- ulng away to China or Japan; bugl don’t, I only go homo when I nm free, and lake n good doso of Chopin or Beethoven; they tone me up.

Why, Jacob Storm. His father will not let him go to eollogo, nnd lie walks down here af ter work is douo on Saturday, and returns Sunday night.

Brave littlo Sallie! Tho days and weuks flew by, and found her at her post. She only saw tho hard dally toll, only fult tho bonds which kept her closo until shu could joiu tiie girls who quietly aud easily wulkcd the paths of knowledge. Silo did uot know that hor example gnve Joe new courage, aud kept Tom from many a col lege "lark;” sho never dreamed that Ja cob Sloini wns makiug a nmn of himself for her sake; she could uot see the power Blie exercised over Dlko, who was lueliued to.bq alltllo wayward; silo novor guessed that: hor devotion to eelf-cuUnro nni study Imd stimulated somo ot her associates to go aud do likewise. Sho only felt tile pressure of tho dnily toil, only louged for tho day of hor emancipation, only worked unceasingly. Littlo by little tile sound of tlio factory hell grew hateful to her, and its red brick wells wearied her eyes, hut over aud over to .herself sho said, “There is no such word ns fall.” Her brluf vacations wero seasons of joy. Ja cob Storm wished thoy might last lorovor. Ho, too, wns hard nt.work; and ono day, when lie ami Sallie imd discussed the merits of various authors, and compared notes concerning tlioir studies, Sallio’s outburst of praUo for his achievements drew from him an avowal of his love. “Why, Jacob,” said sho regretfully, ‘I nover thought of you in that way. I should ns soon fancy Tom marrying hood?" hlmsolf perfectly, ns well ns his subject," said n third. Wlmn Urn spenkor closed, tho npnln was emplmlle-nhd prolonged.

Then help mo to oscapo from all Lliqsc eyes, and lot mo givo you tho latest tidings from homo." Miss Rivers was envied by her friends ns she passed out, stopping now and then to introiluoo the popular scientist as an old schoolmate.. Of wlmt limy talked, apd how, it mat ters not to us; wo only kuowth'ata cer tain professor wns absent from his post ill order to attend tlio oxoroisos at a certain college, where Alias River’s graduated, and wo nlso know tlmt a woduing took place soon nfter, and Hie bride’s toilet did not cost her weary days nnd nights; for, liko a sensible woman, sho purchased it in Now York, aud onjoyod the last pre cious dnys.with her friends.
