The scene of the first act is laid in the vicinity of New Rochelle, where a re-idonce was purchased Inst season by a wealthy young business man of this city. He hail ouly been eighteen months a Benedict, and his marital life was nearly perfect. In addition to his wife, his household in cluded the housekeeper, a widow, and her daughter, the housemaid. So fur aa known, the widow was not one of the sort against whom the elder Weber warned Weller, junior,— Her sin ;f sin it be, was that she was ttm mother of a very saucy, handsome and somewhat bee-thinking daughter. This daughter tad many admirers, and, as a matter of fact, she bad a habit of meeting at least one of her lovers hy appointment in Naw York. She corresponded with her lover, and for the add roes of her letters she com bined her name with the last name cf her mistress. So long as she was careful to receive ail letters for the family, in person, no trouble resulted. But one fatal day the master of the house was detained in the morniug later than usual, and happened to be at ihe door when the postman came. What was this? A letter directed in a bold but masculine hand to Miss Lucy Austin. What did it men?— Was ids wife ma.-querading as an un married woman, with a change „f her Hist name ? Iu a suOden fit of jeal ous torror he t re the letter open, The writer asked tier to meet him at Mal lard’. at >wu o’clock (hat afternoon.— The demon had entered his soul, but he decided to wait till the appended uour, ai.d then conlroti her in the piesence <d hei paramour. Assurance oecame doubtiy sure when, on bid ding in wii good- 1 ye for the day, she asked >iui tor some money, as she was going o town to do some shopping- The wronged husband, a littie before two o’clock, entered Mail lard’s and took a secluded seat in toe rear. While waiting the coming of the faise wife and er lover, heengaged in conversation with one of the young women in at endanee. He pliel her with que tions as to the ladies who were in the habit of doming at that hour. To his horror he was informed i bore wa*> a lady who frequently met a gentleman at two o'clock. “Is tins the one?” he asked, tragic ally, pulling his wife’s photograph from his pocket “Oh, no,” was the reply, “this is not ttia one.” At this very instant his wife, as it by some strange futility, entered the place and soatan heiself at one end of the tables. She had been shopping was tired, and catne in for some light refreshment. Unable longer to contain himself, and toreetting tbe destroyer of his ojppine'9 had not yet appeared, he rushed forward to where his wife was sitting, rudely puked her from her sear, upbr.ided her in the incoherent ravings of a maniac, and then drag ged the terrified woman into the street, thiuet her into the carriage, or dered the bioferann to take her home, and lh' n stalked away meditating dire vengeance. That night when he went home his wile was gone. She had packed up b< r things and had gone home to he r mother, who is a pro i.in-nt lady liv ing on the West side In due course of time she brought suit for divorce on the greund of cru elty. Ho entered a counter suit, charging her with infidelity. He left his housekeeper and her daughter in charge of the house at New Rochel'e, uni! has been living in the city during the winter. A few days ago he had occasion to -visit his suburban establishment. It was a kind fate that sent him there. By a singular coincidence the postman came while he was there. There was a letter tc “Hist Lucy Austin,” in the same accursed hand as that which had ruined his life. What could it mean? He tore it open. The contents were almost a duplicate of the first. While he was still reading it the housemaid picked up the entelope which had fal len from his hand. “That is my let ter!” she scieamed, suddenly suateh ing it from his hand. ‘ Your letter, miserable girl! Wbat do you mean ?” She could not speak from confusion but terrified beyond measure by his looks and words, she finally confessed she had been in the habit of meeting the writer of it at Maillard’s. “God forgive me !” he ejaculated, as he rushed wildly to the telegraph office, whence he sent a message to his wife, telling her the secret whs di vorcod. On the next train he flew to her at ms.— Neu> York Sun. Unb Toombs and ilie Yuukee. The New York Star relates the fol lowing incident whi -h it says occured just after Gen. Toombs made his great speech on slavery in Boston, on the 26th, of January, 1856: “One Cultus, a Boston man, thought hecould make thejoraor betray himself, and took occasion to approach him in ttie midst of a great crowd at the Rev- ere house, so as to have witnesses. ‘‘You are Senator Toombs,’’ he said. “I am,” said the great Bob. “I have no doubt your ouiinent po sition will compel you to give a true answer to a question, even if it should criminate yiur section?” “Try me,” said Bob. with a twinkle in his eyes. “Sir,” said the long-faced and long haired philanthropist, “I am informed that in Georgia, your own state, t..ey ac'ually work u< gres to the plow in thepla'eof horses, and I rely upon you to substantiate or contra ict it.” Toombs said: “I will answer you Yankee fashion, by asking you anoth- j er question: “Do you know what a likely negro man or boy costs?” “Oh, yes,” said Philo. “I am in formed of your dreadful customs, and the ptice of human blood is from j S9OO to $1,500.” “Will you take Hi,ooo as fair?” said Toombs. “Yes sir,” said the mas in search of his brother. “Well,” said Toombs, “a fair plow team is two mules, with us. How many negro meti would you think it would take to do the work o! two good mules? The m m pondered. He said; “1 should say about ten to a mule, or twenty to a team.” Toombs said: “A mule costs from SIOO to $l5O A team S3OO. Your negro team will cost just $20,000. The man gave an angry j m of hia hat over ns ears, and went out ejacu lating, "I might have known it was 0 lie.” The Ispkkad of Intid: lity. —The great excitement at ttie North at the present time is over the question of eternal punishment. Beecher takes the ground against eternal punish ment and attempts to prove that the Bible only intends limited punishment. Rev. De Witt Talmage and other orthodox j reachers cite many passa geß from the scriptures showing that the meaning intended is nothing else than an endless and eternal punish ment. To show how rife is the spirit of atheism, R. J. Ingersoll, an open and avowel infidel, is lecturing in New York to immense audiences. He ridicules the Bible and scounts foe idea of fulure punishment in any shape. Crowds, una le to gain ad* mission to his lectures, are turned Bway every time he has anappointmeiit to speak. Ch.istians are justly alarmed a" the rapid spread of false and fallacious doctrins throughou the land. Th- human mind is naturally too skeptical anyhow, and the sacro ligious utterance of Ingersoll and such mt-n are woi king much harm.— Southern Home. Worm Rail Fences The rails should be 10 feet long; the base should be from 5 foet 6 to 5 feet 10 inches, laid to the tip of the rail; always tun up hi)! ; six stakes is enough (three on each side) to run anywhere, by moving up the two hindmost, as required. Buch a fence requires 5 rai's to the yard, or 500 to every 100 yards. By this rule JKdu may alwis tell how many rails will he re quired to fence any piece of land.— Step it all ronnd One square acre, or 70 yards on every side, will require 1,400 rails; four aores w 11 take ’/.SO© .rails; sixteen scree 5,600, and so on. Th number of rails to each acre will deeiease until, at about 50 miles square, it will only require one rail to ; each acre, and at 200 miles square one rail will fence 3£ acres. Old-fie'd pine rails will last about seven years; poles, four years. All kinds of sap timhor is nearly on an equality. Some heart timber will last longer than oth ers—chestnut, for example; that will last always “for daddy tried it twice.” He Was Auxin, to Wed. Tho afternoon S6rvic n had ended, and tho congregation was arranging themselves for the benediction, when tho parson descended from the pnl| it to the desk below, and said, iu a tmloi, clear voice : “Those wishing to be united in the holy bonds of matrimony wil 1 now please come forward.” A deep stillness instantly fell over the congregation, broken only by the rustling of the silk, as some pretty 1 girl or excited matron changed her : position to catch the first view of the I couple to be married. No one, how ! ever, arose, or seemed in tho least in | caned to rise. Whereupon the wor i thy clergyraau deeming the first not ice unheard or misunders.ood, re [ peatpd: “Let tnose wishing to be united in the holy bonds of matrimouy naw come foi ward.” Still no one stirred. The silence became almost audible, and a painful sense of awkwardm ss among those present was felt, when a young man, ■\ ho%ccupied a vacant seat in the broad aisle during the service, slowly arose and deliberately walked to the foot of the alter. He was good look ing and well dressed, but no female accompanied him. When he arrived within a respectful distance of the clergyman he paused, and with a rev erent bow stepped to one side of the j aisle, but neither said anything, nor i seemed at all d'seonoerted at the idea j of being married alone. The clergyman looked anxious'y around for the biide, who, he sup posed, was yet to arrive, and at length remarked to the young man, in an undertone: “The young lady, sir, is dilatory.” “Yes, sir ” “Had you uot better defer the cer emony?” “I think not.” # “Do yeu suppose she will be here sot ti ?” “I, sit?” said the young man; “how should I know ot the lauy’s move ments?” A few moments were allowed to elapse iu this unpieasint state of ex pectancy, when tho clergyman renew- ed his intorrngations. ‘Did the lady prom : se to attend at the pcesent hour, sir?” “Wfiat lady ?” •‘Why, the lady, to be sure, that you are waiting here foi ?” “I did no* hear her say anything about it,” was the unsatisfactory re sponse. “Then, sir, may I ask you why you are here, and for what purpose you thus trifle in the sanctuary of the Most High?” -aid the somewhat en raged clerical. “I came, sir, simply because you invited ad 'hose wishing to be united in the holly bonds of matrimony to step foi ward, and l happened to en t rt'in such a wish. lam sorry to have misunderstood you, sir, and I wish you a very good day.” The benediction was uttered in a solemnity of tone very little in accor dance wi-h tlia twitching of the fac ial nerves, and when, after the church was olosed, the story got amongst the congregation, more than one gill re gretted that the young man who real ly wished -0 he uuired in the holy bonds of matrimony had been obliged to depart without a wife ♦•*- t “•'uiallel Case.” Yesterday a ragged shivering mid dlo-aged man ca led at a house oil Sibley street and asked for fond, But the lady of 'he bouse called out: “Why don’t you work for youi food?” ‘I uroui’d if I knew where Icmld . find work” lie promply replied. “There’s place down town where you can saw wood and earn your dinner” she continued. That seemed to stick hrn for half a minute hut he finally said with great solemnity: “Madam let me state a puallel eise - There is a place in Heaveu for you but , you don’t want to die till you are driven right to it.” She pondered over his philosophy for a few seconds and then called to the cook to pass ont half a loaf of j bread and some meat. — Detroi 1 Eree Preto.

Novarla City Transcript. At Bodie Mono county on Thursday afternoon Jack Braslan and a mao named > Blair, who have for some time partnership m their business of mining and prospecting, met in the bar-room of Pollock’s boaiding house and commenced an aegry dispute con \ earning the terms of a certain location 1 they had recently made. They were ! both under the influence of liquor, | Braslan more so than Blair. After quarreling for some time, Braslan ex* claimed that he was “chief,” which claim Bmir disputed, saying be was willing to fight him at any disianc® from a'handknchief iengih to forty paces. This challenge Braslan whose pistol aod belt were lying on :be floor a short distance from him, accepted, asking for time to “heel himself, which he proceeded to do by buckling on his belt. The two men went out in the street, appearing more pleasant ly disposed towards one another than they had been at any other time during the day. Placing themse’ves At less than eight feet apart, at a giv en signal from one they both fired effectively Blair b-ing struck in the shoulder and Braslan in thesuje. After the first shot they both Aired rapidly until their revolvers each a six-shooter had been entirely emptied. After the smoko of the twelve rapidly fired shots cleared away both men appeared rid dled with shot, blood from their wounds crimsoning the snow at every atip they took. Neither seemed to have been satisfied with the result, each started for a fresh pistol. Braslan re turned to the bar room and Blair start ed around the comer of the house, where be secured anothei pistol from an acquaintance with which he teturn ed to the bar room and shot Braslan in the abdomen, inflicting a wound of which Braslan died in about fifteen minutes After firing the last shot BUir fell to the floor from the loss o blood. He was moved to the cabin of a frieud when upon examination he was found to have boen shot in four differ nt places. How to I'.coiioimzu in Drugs* The New York Timet has discover ed a way to save drug bills, which ia commended as worthy a trial theso close iifijbS! “A Rhode Island lady who was in the habit of taking large quantities of linctu eof iron, found great benefit from the medicine, but also incured large bills at the apothecary’?, which her husband found it rather difficult to meet. Instead of brutally outtiag off her medicinal supplies, this ingeni ous and humane man conceived the plan of manufacturing-tincture ofiron in the secrecy of his own wood shed. He therefore procured a pail, placed in it two pounds of old iron nails, three diachma of iron barrel hoops and four scruples of misce laneous iron. To this he added one gatirn of acquaptira, an l stirred the mixture with a pitch fork three time a dav for a week. At the end of that time tie drow off the water with a siphon, placed it in pint bottles, and labeled it ‘Tinct-ferri- Use as directed.” His wile took this home made tincture without any suspicion that it was not purchased at the apothecary's, and derived all the bene* fit from it which she had derived trom the apothecary’s, own tincture. Al though she had beeu afflicted for sev eral months with extreme weakness, her strength revived under tbe influ ence of the tincture to such an extent that at the end of three weeks, when she accidentally caught her husband in the act of filling Iter bottle from the pail in tbe wood shed, she was Able io iift a heavy pitchfork, and, after wield ing it with great vigor for ten minutes, to assist the hired man in dragging her husband into the house' whereshe subsequently applied arnica and blown paper to near’y two-thirds of bis et* tire surface.” The lesson was the parable about the tares and the wtaert, and the father asked ths son : “VV bat ia a tare?” “You had ’em!” “Johnny, what do you mean?” asked the anxious patent. “Why, last week, wh-m you didn’t come home for three days,” said Johnny. “I heard mother tell aunt Susan you were on a tare.” Juhnuy was itamediately sent to bel.
