THE OLD COUPLE. They sat in the sun together. Till the day was almost done. And then, at its closa, an angel Stepped over the threshold stone. He folded their hands together. He touched their eyelids with balm. And their lest breath floated upward Like the close of a solemn psalm. Like A bridel pair they traversed The unseen, mystical road That leads to the Beautiful City, Whose Builder and Maker is God. Perhaps, i» that miracle country, They will give her lost youth back. And the flowers of a vanished spring-time Shall bloom in the spirit's track. One draught of the bring waters Shall restore his manhood's prime. And eternal years shall measure The lore that outlives time. But the shapes they left behind them— The wrinkles and silver hair, Made sacred to us by the kisses 'The angel imprinted there — Well hide away in the meadow. When the sun is low in the west, Where the moonbeams cannot find tk*ni. Nor the wind disturb their rest. But we’ll let no tell-tale tombstone, With its age and date urine O ar th« >»« who are old no longer, In their Father's bouse in the skies. THE LITTLE LADY, I was stopping at the hotel Windsor, at Hue de ltivoli, Paris. One morning I was smoking in the colonnade, when a tall, elegantly dressed geutluman asked (Emission to light his cigar by mine. I saw at once that be was a Frenchman, although his “Eng lish" was nearly perfect. “Have you heard the news ?” lie in quired. “No.” “Is it possible? Why, all Paris is alive with it at this moment.” “What has happened 1” “The C‘ouLitc|k» (ie Murvillr, tin- fairest of the fair, was found murdered in Iter lied last night, nor bureau broken open, and teu thousand Irani* missing from it. It was terrrbie! Xbo brute who did the dins) effected his entrance through the window of her ctuuuber, afar which, un fortunately, was a tall tree planted by the distinguished grandfather of the countess year* ago. Little did he imag ine what a turn bio use would be inode of it.” * ’This is bad news. How any man Oouid harm a woman thus in cold blood ie more than I can imagine. ” “Ah, monsieur, if you had ever seen the countess you would wouder btill more. Hue was beautiful, beautiful os an angel," ho added, stroking hij whiskers with au uuuiistakablf air of vanity ; “I knew her well.” * ‘ Indeed. ” “O yes. There are in Psrisfew popular Women unknown to me.” His manner now was decidedly con ceited, and I felt disgusted. My cold ness evidently repelled him, for he soon left me. Afterwards I heard from others accot nts of the late tragedy. Among the details of the affair was one -which peculiarly impressed me, and which ray first informant had not spoken of, an oversight which surprised me, as the occurrence he had not mentioned was of that kind which would be moat apt to strike the fanoy. Upon the throat of the oouutess the murderer, in throttling her, had lefts mark from a ring be wore, the impres sion of a chariot wheel with a star in the centre. “This,” said my latest informant, “may lead to the discovery of the murderer. Jeau Mosqueau is already visiting the jewellers’ shops to fiud out from which and by whom a ring with a chariot-wheel device was purchased.” “Who is Juan Mosqueau 1” “What, Mosqueau, our famous detec tive ? Although his courage is well ftoown, you would not, to look at his fair, delicate face and form, believe that he could fight a gnat !” A week later I was aboard the steamer bound from Calais to Dover. Among the passengers I beheld one whose face looked familiar to me. I was not long in recognizing this person as the same I bad seen in front of the hotel Windsor, and who had first informed me of the murder of the countess. He was certainly a very handsome mau, although his conceited air was a blot upon his good looks. He moved languidly hither and thither, turning his brown eyes admiringly upon the pretty lady passengers, while strok ing his whiskers with one white hand, upon the middle finger of which was a superb diamond ring. I am rather of a suspicious nature, which, combined with a lively imagina tion, had often led me into singularerrors. Now, a strange impulse moved me to advance and hold out my hand to the man whom I had involuntarily disliked from the first in order that I might have a chance to glance at his ring. Some how the idea possessed me that I should discover a chariot-wheel device upon the glittering bauble. ®!tc Mlrou|)ic Mi'dili) Jouiinal. VOL V. He stranger did not at first recognize me. He soon did, however, and frankly ! extended his loft hand, which was not the one containing the ring. My brain fairly reeled ; the man’s be havior was aconfirmation of my suspicions. “The other hand, if you please,” I said , in a low, stern voice. “Monsieur will please excuse me ; my other arm is lame with the rheumatism." He beheld me glaneo towards the half hidden ring, aud I was sure I saw him start and turn pale, at the same time look ing much surprised. He, however, opened his right hand, as if perfectly willing for me to shake it if I chose to. Then I hud a good look at the ring, and felt ashamed of my suspicions. The device was a common heart, which cer tainly bore no resemblance to a chariot wheel. After a general conversation to recover uiy self-possession, I turned away, resolv ed in the future to have a better opiuiou of my fellow-creatures. The stranger’s good looks seemed to attract the attention of a good many of the ladies. One especially, a modest looking little thing attired iu black, kept directing furtive glances at the handsome passenger. Finally she gilded so close to him that in turning he brush ed against her. Au apology, smilingly received by the little lady, a remark about the weather on the part of the gentleman, aud the two were soom conversing with anima tion. Meanwhile the blushing cheek and bright eyes of tfie fair one seemed to be token that she was well pleased with her companion, wtoae uir was more con ceited than evii. “J am afraid we shall have a storm,” she remarked pointing toward a dark cloud upon which the captain of the boat j was gazing anxiously, i “We may, but do not be alarmed, mndame.” 1 With an air of nonchalance he pulled a I ivkJ cigar-cuse from bis pocket and asked | iiis companion if she objected to a smoke. ! Thou he started, and quickly returning I the red one to hit* pocket pulled forth au ! other of a blue eolor. I “How mauy cigars do yon smoke a ! day?” inquired the lady, evidently ntnijs- J ed at the sight of two oases, i The other colored, and it struck me | that his voice slightly faltered and his hand trembled us he made some luugh ing reply. '* Siam the storm came pouncing down upon us. We were midway in the chan nel, so that we caught the full force of the seu uud gale. Hotli were terrific. The sea swept the boat, which lay so Jar over that her machinery was soon damaged so that it would not work. The wind, screaming like a demon, threw her over still farther. Suddenly ho observed the sailors en deavoring to loosen a long-bout on the davits at the stern. Meanwhile there was an ominous grinding, smashing noise under the counter. The truth could not be concealed ; we were sinking. The iwill's screamed ; the handsome passenger lost his self-possession, and ran hither aud thither. The cool behavior of the little lady ill black contrasted strangly with the agitat ed demeamor of those around her. There she stood calm and immovable, her bright steel-blue eyes fixed upon the handsome stranger, of whom she did not lose sight for a moment. “Keep quiet ladies and gentlemen !” sang out the captain ; “keep quiet, and don’t crowd around the I>oat so ! There will be room iu it for you all ; and, be. aides there is a schooner coming to our assistance,” pointing to a vessel blowing towards us before the wind. There was, however, a panic among those addressed. The moment the boat was lowered, into it they all bundled, am ong them the handsome passenger. A huge sea coming along, roaring like thunder, parted the tackles, tearing the boat from the 6teamer before the lady iu black or I could enter it. The handsome passenger, loosing his balance, fell over the gun-wale, and beiug unable to swim wildly threw up his arms. I must acknowledgd that I was so en grossed with the perilous situation of my fair companion and myself, now the only two left aboard the steamer, that I paid little attention to the drowning man. The steamer was in fact going down fast, was already nearly engulfed iu the stormy waves, her heated and half-sub merged boilers hissing as the steam came gushing out like the spout of a whale. I was advancing to throw an arm around the little lady, fearing to see her washed away, when quietly motioning me back with one hand, she seized a coil of rope and threw the end to the hand some passenger. He caught it when turning to me, the lady requested me to help haul the man aboard. I complied, marveling at the love and devotion thus shown by a woman to an acquaintance of an hour. His power over the female sex must be great, I thought. He is conceited but not without reason, r* The idea flashed clearly across my mind in spite of my danger. The schoon er, however, was very near and I had every reason to believe that we should be picked up. I was right. We were all taken aboard the schooner, the handsome passenger among the rest. Then the lady in black | pulled forth a revolver, pointing it at the I head of him whom she had rescured. "Out with that red cigar-caso !” she | said sternly. “1 would like tj sec what 1 monsieur carries in it.” “Why, why,” stammered the stranger; “what is " Before he could say another word, the little Amizon thrust her disengaged hand in his pocket, pulled forth the red cigar ease, aud opening it, a ring dropped to the deak. The ring she picked up, and holding it up before us all exclaimed— “l have fqaud.it at last. The jeweller assured mo it was the only one of the device iu Paris, a chariot-wheel ! This person is the murderer of Countess de Mamil* !" .•7” *' - - The handsome passenger stood as if frozen to the deck, making no resistance as the lady in block slipped a pair of handcuffs over his wrists. “By what right,” he then stammered, “do you ” He paused as the other threw off her dress and false hair, revealing the person of a slender man, with delicate, girlish features. “1 am Jean Mosqueau, the detective!” he quietly remarked, “and I robbed the sea of this man that, the scaffold might not be cheated. ” There iB little more to mid. The main proof having been obtained, other proofs on the prisoner’s trial were brought forth, showing him guilty beyond doubt. Long before his execution his name was ascertained to be Louis Rosseeuean, a noted adventurer aud gambler, who, however, by cool effrontery and a win ning address, backed by his good looks, had been enabled to move among the first circles of Parisian society. An Aquatic Velocipede. On Saturday afternoon last a number of peoplo assembled on the wharf below the Kensington Water Works to witness the trial of what the inventor calls an acquatic velocipede. The suspension power of the machine is the three cigar shaped zinc floats, fifty-four inches in. length by about fourteen inches in dia meter. Two of these floats are placed opposite of each other, about six feet apart, stiffened ftnd bifid iu position by iron ri>ds rawing to a chair sent, placed directly oV«f tig: centre. The tbiftl flekt is placed iu tluAroar and midway between the two others. This latter float is like wise secured to the chair by rods, but in such a way that it acts as a rudder, the rider working it by means of ropes run ning to his seat. The wheel which is of iron, aud weighs forty pounds, is placed directly in front of the chair. The spokes, twelve in number, fifteen inches long, with floats at their outer extremities six inches square. The wheel is propelled by the feet, as iu a velocipede. When the rider was seated iu the elmir the flouts were about half submerged and the sent of the chair about three feet above the water. The weight of the entire apparatus is 100 pounds. Direct ly after high water the velocipede was brought around into the river dock, and after performing several revolutions such as turning, backing, rocking, it was started straight acrass the river to a Stake boat anchored lalf a mile distant. This boat was rounded, and the machine brought back to the doer., a distance of a mile, in about ten minutes. Iu the home stretch it encountered the waves of the steamboat John A. Warner, but it rode them out safely, aud without dim inishing its speed in the least.—Phila delphia Ledger. Inploencr or Food.—An excellent hint is given iu the following item : Dr. Hall relates the ease of a man who w.* cured of his billiousuess by goiug with out his supper and drinking freely of lemonade. The next morning his patient arose with a wonderful sense of rest and refreshment, and feeling as though the blood had been literally washed, cleansed and cooled by the lemonade and fast. His theory is that food can be used as a remedy for many diseases successfully. As an example, he cures spitting blood by the use of salt ; epilepsy, by water melons ; kidney affections, by celery; poison, by olive or swei t oil ; erysipelas, by pounded cranberries applied to the part affected ; hydrophobia, by onions, etc. 8o the way to keep in good health is really to know what to eat aud to know what medicines to take. An Interesting Discovery. —Some workmen, while engaged in laying water pipes in Civadale, Italy, recently en countered a large flat stone. On raising this a bed of mason work was revealed, iu which was placed a stone sarcophagus covered with a marble lid. Withiu the receptacle were the remains of a human skeleton, some portions of which were yet perfect. Beside the body lay a sword, lance, helmet, spears, a gold clasp and ring, apeiceof very beautiful gold tissue, and a flask of water which was still re markably clean. The removal of clay from the bottom of the grave brought out the letters Oisvl—from which arch aeologists have decided that the remains are those of Gisulf, Juke of the Lombard marches of Friuli, who fell in battle in 611, while repelling an invasion of the Avars. THOMSON, GA. OCTOBER 13,1875. When Men arfe at tbe/ir Best. Dr. Beard states that from, an analysis of the lives of a representative men iu all the the jjreat brashes of hu man effort, he mad* the discovety that the golden decade yras detWcen 30and 40, the silver 40 and s#, the brazen between 20 and 30, and the Iron between 50 and .60. The superiority of youth and mid dle liffl over old sgf in original work ap pears all the greaiir, when we consider the fact that all thfe positions of honor aud profit ’aud pibstige—professorships and public station^,— are in the hands of the old, Reputation, lixe motley aud position, is mainly.coufineJ to the old. Men are’ not widely known until long alter thejr have dri|fe the WoA that gives them User fame. DorhWt* of great men are ad lltmion f st»**tet7wij lies. They are takeu when hiivu become famous, which, on the average, is at leasttweuty five yearn after they did tile work .which gave them their fame. Original work requires enthusiasm. If all the original W<rrk done by men undei .forty-five wiVe annihilated, they would lie reduced h, barbarism. Men are nS their best at l that time when enthusiasm and experi ence are most evenly balanced ; this pe riod on the average is from thirty-eight to forty. After this time the law is that experience increases hut enthusiasm de clines. In the life of aanost every old man there comes a point, sooner or Inter, when experience ceases to have au edu cating power. U -J Cost op Sot. om on’a Temple. Ac cording to the computation of Vallalpau dus, the value of tin' talents of gold, sil ver and brass used in the ooustruetion of the Temple amounted to $34,399,107,500. The jewels arc reckoned to have exceed ed this amount. The vessels of gold, consecrated to tire uso of the Temple, are reckoned by Josephus at 140,000 tal ents, which, according to Chapel's re duction, are equal to $2,726,181,000. The vessels of silver are computed nts2,- 416,720,000. The silver vestments at $10,000,000, and lliu other musical in struments at $200,000. To these expenses must he added those .of ether materials-!-the timber and stone, and of the labor employed upon them, divided thus ; There were ten thousand men at Lebanon hewing tim ber. There were tcjV thousand beavers of burden. There Write twenty ’thousand hewefv 'of Htonfe, ftift ''Ttotswi thimsand eight hundred overseers, all of whom wore employed for seven years, aud upon whom, besides their wages, aud diet, Solomon bestowed about $409,386,000 ; and the costly Stone aud timber, in the rough, are set down to he worth about one-third that of the gold, silver and brass, or $12,726,480,000. This makes the grand total of the cost, of this mag nificent structure the sum 'of $87,212,- 152,000. This is sufficient to pay the estimated indebtedness of the whole world four times over. ® What is the Sun ?—Prof. Rudalpli, in a lengthy paper on the sun says : A molten or white hot mnEB, 856,000 miles iu diameter equaling in bulk 1,360,000 worlds like our own, haviug a surround ing ocean of gas on fire 50,000 miles deep, tongues of ttaine darting upward more than 50,000 miles, volcanic forces that hurl into the solar atmosphere luminous matter to the .height of 160,000 miles ; drawing to itself all the worlds belonging to our family of planets, and holding them all in their proper places ; attract ing with such superior force the millions of solid and stray masses that are wan dering in the fathomless abyss that they rush helplessly toward him, and fall into his fiery embrace. And thus he contiq. ues his sublime and resistless march through his mighiy orbit, having a period of more than 18,000,000 of years. Princely Salaries.—Probably so me of om- ambitions American citizens, wTo either hold or aspire, and make up their modest official oompansations by being parties to jobs and ring steal ings, have in their mimTs eye the salaries of the different monarchs of Europe when they are thus engaged. They doubtless tliiuk their services are worth as much as that of some of the useless monarchs. The salaries whiqh they compare with, and thus breed dissatis faction within themselves, are given as follows by a German satistioian : Alex ander 11., $9,152,000, or $25,000 a day ; Abdul Azir, $9,000,000, or SIB,OOO a day; Francis Joseph, $4,000,000, or $10,050 a day ; Frederick William If., $3,000,000, or $8,210 a day ; Victor Emanuel, $2,- 400,000, or $6,840 a day ; Victoria, $2,- 200,000, or $0,270 a day ; Leopold, SOOO -or $1,640 a day.
