It is an old saying that one half of tho world is not aware how the otln r half lives. This saying which is both old and common, may bo fully illus trated in tho life and death of Eph raim Canton, who died in a town not twenty rnilos from West Troy, on last Sunday evening. At tho time of his death Mr. Canton was 58 years old, and for tho last i)(! yt ars of his life, never saw but four human beings, and during the same period never set ! his eyes on sun, moon, stars, or the j bright, arching heavens. Neither did j he sea the hills, valleys or forests of : his native country. He did not hear j of the groat civil war that came so in ar destroying the groat model re ! public of the world. 11c died in ig ] noranco of tho emancipation of the ! negroes, and never heard of any of th.. great questions that troubled the public mind during that period of : time. Iu tho month of January, 1835, j Ephraim Canton, then a young man i about 21 years old, formed tho ac quaintance of a young lady of rare accomplishments and beauty ia Ce j hoes, and imn dliately became nit ten with her beauty, and prop. .;• -.1 for her hand in mavrige. The Inly at first seemed fnvnre.bb to , - *:r and gave him sufficient crn'cnr-ige- i inent to insure success, and iin-Vy promised to become jiis w : f.->. The day that tho ceremony of t-hc : •: | age was to take place was up; which was to Lc on tho 20th of May, ! lfvjfi. Early o.i the nioruim; of that day Mr. Canton, acoonq.ar.i'.d by: a -ill of Ids friends, set out from hi:; . native village in. tho direction el Co- j ; Inv.'.!, with Ihc intention of gifting: married and bringing back his bloom- ’ l ing wife to his homo in the country village where ho washing ri g- rdefi by tlie fair sex as tho beau ideal of ft , young man. Wh.-u lh< party r* .me ed the hotne of liis affianced, they wt re astoni -:: .t l at i< eing no prej a r.irioi: ; made for tin ir reception, and . Mr. Canton inquired the cause of his j mothrr-in-law that was to be. ’That. I lady informed him that on the night previous her daughter, his expected 1 wife, departed jot tho city of New I York, making no excuse for her dc-j * part-urn, but left a note for bin whi< li j read as f. bows: Mr. Cbanton: • In consequence of •-:f • d..mrging to your eliaracter, j that : si I, I hereby c ii,( el my : cngageiec'i- to hi come your wif-.s, and jat th ■ came time reipn t y ■ to hn- I got in a :i-i soon as possibl-.'. With j j my Lest wishes for your future wel-, | fare, 1 remain yours, etc. i . * E;.i;i,y. The disappointed groom made the I j best of the inevitable for the time be -1 ing, making some excuse wliy tho cer ; cmonv could not come off that day. | They ull returned homo, and Mr. Can ton's mother, hearing of the disap-1 ■ poiutment, sympathized with her sol, j and advised him to go to bed and sleep off" the effects of it, and when he j got up in the morning he would feel I better. The humiliated son took her J advice and retired to his room, taking ! j with him some carpenter's tools that * he possessed. He carefully locked j | his bed room door as soon as he had * entered it, and then commenced |to cat a small one foot square j window through the wooden : partition that divided his bed room from the parlor. Ho then fixod his bed so he could reacli the window with his hand without leaving the bed, and then called his mother and told her to pass bis food through that window to him, to admit no visitors to see him, and finally if she know what was safe not to make any effort to enter the room herself. Notwith-1 ; standing this warning, she was nearly every hour of the following days Leg . | giug of her son to get up, but it was ! |of no avail. Mho then thought to | i starve him out, and refrained from j i giving him food for thirty-six hours, j * but that had no effect, and finally she j | fient for a neighboring man, and wit’ll 1 I hia assistance broke in tho bed room door and entered. But the son was i still refractory and refused to speak to any person, and nil the efforts ! made and inducement.': off red could I | not prevail oh him to speak one word! ior iouvo the bed. Wo have not lime j ! nor space to mention nil the ruses | i that were nutdo to get him to leave the room, all of which failed, and to make a long story short, he never left his bed room from that May morning j iu 1886 until ho was taken from it for [his coffin on last Sunday afternoon. 1 During tho tliirty-six years that lie 1 remained in bed lie never spoke to | but four men and his mother, and : never inquired for anyone or anything ! jin the outside world. His life is ; .shrouded in mystery, and probably will remain so. He lost Lis reason ; when he lorn, his bride. —,>*<7=.— . A singular case is reported from j Brooklyn. A woman was badly fright ened by a cat some time previous to the birth of her child. That child proved to he a gill, and is now eighteen years of ago and married. During her girl hood she gave no evidence of being affected be her mother’s friglit except ing indeed, a propensity to chase mice and occasionally to sit on the backyard fence and howl a little on moonlight nights: but strange to re late, since the birth of her ow n baby she always lifts it out of the crib by tho back of its neck with her I teeth, Qlimi AN, CA., TMIUISDAY, DEOEMDEH 9, 1875.

They are, in a word, softened instead of harden ed. A common reply of the head of the family to the suggestion that the future of the children should be look ed at is that they will begin lifo un j der the same circumstances us he di<*. —that is, with nothing- forgetting ; that the conditions of life are cluing-, 1 ed, and that it is now M p sil le •. r 1 them to live as he once did. if a helping hand is given, singular to say, j |it is often or to the man than to tho i woman, either iu being admitted to the business of the father or beiug : 1 started on hi.' own account.

One night not long ago, Owen Mar shall, of Stoughton, Massachusetts, shot and fearfully wounded his wife, to whom he had been married but three months.

I can give no other reason j for this except that the profession is i constantly busy, and works with an j approval of conscience, since its labors a. u for the public weal.
