* m The Nuisance of Travel. Bayard Taylor, For the lest fire jeers I hare been waiting for the impatient* of our public to culminate in some revolt against an annoyenoe so small that mj mention of it may possibly provoke a sneer—but the endurance still continues. Would any other people in the world quietly bear to have, every ton minutes, a hideous “Day’s Doings" spread over their lane, a novel of Miss Braddon Sung upon them, a paoKaao ut nss.y God, gentlemen,, he is killed. Many at first thought this a part of the enter- tainment, but on lifting the body the horrible truth beoame manifest. Dr. Ellis probed the wound and pronounced the ease hopeless. He lived for half an hour, but never epoke. No came was assigned for the terrible act. give] box o 1 withered figs, or pop com. or mapl to their hands, “ivory tba trees" stuck under their 1 Esnicdy for Bums.

Judge John* son, in pronouncing sentence in the r.»s\rfl3£t. i fa- •.% -«“;*■«. rirtz i to the grand juries, has often snnounesd his determination to “make pistols cheap” here by destroying the demand for them, and he has euooeeded. Be* oently two young men, who had been in no duBeolty, and had made no use of their weapons, bnt who had been seen '“i pistols, were indicted by the ary for violation of the law of is State. One of them pleaded guilty, dollars ana cost, that grows on noses—but why go on with the catalogue ? Every body that travels knows the nuisance; every lady who takes o fleeting nap, even in t Pallmari 1 “ Palace" car, has been rudely awakened by a greasy novel flung upon her bosom: every gentleman has been blaokguarded for allowing his preoions package of prize candy to drop upon the floor. I once heard the gentle protest of a ladv, but (he young rnfiin answered: “ Yon needn’t be afraid of ’em—they won’t bite you!". In fact, since the fellows are licensed by the railroad oompanies, they have a certain protection, and consider themselves justified in their treatment of passengers, who must be bullied into buying. I am not sur prised at them, but the abject sub mission of victims is an over-renewed marvel. Maggie Mitchell Married to Her First Beau. The Graphc I have known Msggio Mitcholl for iwfttiy years, and rej rioo in her success as a sister woman. Her artistic tri umphs did not seek her out; she fought for them and won them bravely. Fan- chon she created. The medium through which she beoame acquainted with the part was a heavy translation of the Ger man play. She bad not«ad “La Petite Fadetto,” George Sand’s novel, The Shadow Danoe—about whoso fairy S race so great a poet as Balph Waldo morson has written beautiful verses, not to mention host of smaller rym- store—was an of erthonght of her own, and so were many other beautiful and pathetio touches whioh heighten the charm of this delightfnl dramatic pic ture. Since 1862 Maggie has been playing The Orioket, and its hold on tho public has not waned even now. Other performances of Maggie* are var iously admired. The most prominent of these are Jane Eyre and The Pearl of Savoy, a dramatic version of Linda di Ohamonnix, but Tho Orioket chirps forever. Maggie is married and to her first beau—the sweetheart who lost his heart to her sweetly many years ago. The third engagement Maggie ever played in her life was at Cleveland, and on the first night of her engagement there came to the thoater tho young, man whose destiny to win her for his wife Snd brighten her household with lovely children.

Terrible Tragedy. The pilots of Hell Gate and Long Island Sound gave a clambake at City Island last week to the congressmen and other distinguished persons residing during the summer on the Sound. Among the oompany was Signor Vianni, said to be of the suite of Oount Corti, the Italian minister. After the clam bake and the oampany had enjo themselves making speeches and sii songs, SJt. Doremus tumounced that. Signer Vianni would give a recitation is imitation or Riston. Mr. Vianni took hia puaitiuu iu tho uoutiG o! the group, His voioo was dear and well controlled, his gesticulation highly chromatic; his limbs seemed to quiver With passion, while the expression of his fsoe was startling. He finished with the exclamation, in Italian: “God who judges all will judge this!" He then took a pistol from the outer pocket of his ooaL and, placing it to his temple^ find. He fell partly on his faoe and perfeotly motionless. The spectators exclaimed, wonderfull and applause oommenoed, when Doremus forward, exclaiming, “ Great the injured parts, and allays the imfiim mat ion almost instantly. A oase is re corded where a child fell backward into a bath tub of boiling wator, and was nearly flared fiom her neck to her hips. Her agonies were indescribable; bnt her clothing being gently removed, and the lime and oil preparation thiokly prepi spread over the injured surface, she was sound asleep in five minntes. Snbse- auently, f he parts were carefully washed with warm milk and water thieo times a day, the oil dressing renewed, and the little patient rapidly recovered. Though all the skin oame off she did no: have a scar. This remedy leaves no hard coat to dry on the sores, bat softens the parts and aids nature to repair the injury in the readiest and most expeditions manner. This mixture may be prooured in the drug stoies, but if not thus acoas- ble, slake a lump of quicklime in water, aud as soon as the water is olear, mix it with the oil and shake it well If the oase is urgent, ponr boiling water over the lime, and it will become clear in five minutes. The preparation may be kept bottled io the house, aod it will be as good six months old as when first made, A School-Girl's Pride A St. Louis exokange relatoa an in stance of the pride of a child who strug gled to keep up appearances, in a way that wa3 touching to witness. The hopelessness of the endeavor was pain fully made manifest to her by the well- meant action of her teacher; and the facts are these: Just before the close of the last see sion of the publio school in this city, an inoident took place whioh, as an illus tration, is more than tonohing. At one of the rohools numbers of the pupils were in the habit of bringing a lunch eon with them, which at noon they ate together. Among those who did not go home for dinner, the teacher in a partic alar room notioed a little girl who al ways sat looking wistfully at her play mates when they went out with their lunoheon, bat who never brought any herself. The child was always neatly but plainly olad, and one of the olosest of students in sohool hours. The odd action of the child’s lasted for soc e time, when, one day, the teaoher no ticed that the little thing had apparent ly brought her dinner. The noon honr eame, and the children took their din ner as u«ual and went out to eat it, the little girl referred to alone remaining in the room with her dinner wrapped up in paper on the desk before her. The teaoher advanced to theehiid-and asked her why she didn’t go oat to eat with the rest, at the same time putting out her hand toward the package on the desk. Quiok as thought tho girl elasped her hands over it and ex claimed, sobbing: “ Don’t touch it, teaoher; and don’t tell please! It’s only blocks! ” And that was the fact. Having no dinner to bring, and too proud to re veal the poverty of her family, the ohild had carefully wrapped up a num ber of small blocks in a paper and brought the package to present the ap pearance of a lunch 1 It was nothing, a mere rididons incident in school- life, bnt it was snffioient to make wiser and older hearts than hers sad. S ra the mtui ce of the liveB. After impressing u the enormity and cowari crime of whioh he had been found guilty, he dwelt upon the folly of carry ing concealed weapons. “ when a boy S ets his first pair of ‘gallasses’,” said is Judge, “he thinks he is getting to be a man; but, in a few years later, when he gets whisky in his belly, a K istol in his pocket, and the devil in is head, he is a fall grown man." Tais sentence was delivered in snob a way as to make the yonng man ashamed to hold up his head in Judge Johnson’s presence ever since. She Cured Him, Louauagc Thafz Plais. Njw York Tribnne. Ex-Gov. Hershel V. Johnson is Judge of this circuit, and it would be bard to say whether the whites or the blacks have the greatest respect for his upright ness of character or repose the more implicit confidence in the fairness of his judgment. The praotioe of carrying pistols, so prevalent among the yonng men in some parts of the South, and whioh has been the cause of more trouble than any other one thing, has been entirely broken up in this judioal circuit, Judge Johnson, in his At last she completely cured him. For months she had patiently endured the pangs so many thousands of wives are compelled to suffer. Almost every morning at breakfast the heartless hus band expressed the hope that he might live to see the day when he could get such coff-.e as he u&d to get at home; or sneh com bread as bis mother was wont to make and bake. At dinner the meat was overbaked in the range. To bo sure his mother used to roast the meat in an old-fashioned Datoh tin oven, and the piece was alwaye done to a turn—the last turn of tae revolving spit. Those days were forever gone. But he might and ought to get such a green apple pie with new cheese as his mother need to give him. At kngth the long suffering wife arose in her wrath, upset the table, sending the dishes and their contents dashing to bue carpet, strided over to her astonished thsband, an£ gave him a box on the ear whioh knooked him off his ohair,and remarked: “There’s a dip over the head, such as your mother used to give you when you was a boy.” Thereafter there was domestic peace aud quiet in that house, with never even an allusion' to the maternal cookery and oomforts of the bygone days.
