Romance in Real Life.
Yolo Mail January 28.
Eleven years ago Jacob Wi fiber
came to a certain farm ltouse iu Yo
lo county, and applied for work,
stating that be bad just arrived
from Ohio, and was so reduced in
purse that he was obliged to de
perd on manual labor for a subsis
tence until something offered. lie
was quito well educ. Cid, in appear
ance was altogether more propo
sessittg Ilian tlio average Cdifornia
laborer. The farmer to whom ho
applieic gave employment, his du
ties being to do odd j >L>a about tho
place, and also to assist the wo mi u
fo'Ks about the house. Those la ; -
ter,consisted of tho farmer's wife
and a daughter about tw lva yetrs
old, who was exceedingly pretty,
and a great fa.orito in the neigh
borhood. Young Wilber romain
ocl on tbe firm a year, and during
the time became very much attach
ed to the little girl, so much so Unit
when ho left lie kissed her good
by, told her when ho got rich he
would come back and claim her
for his little wito. To this agree
ment she laughingly assented, and
her affianced departed for other
scenes. Subsequently the father of
our heroine sold vut. Ins farm and
moved with his family to Washing
ton territory, whore he bccamo a
permanent resident. After two or 3
years relume 1 to his home in Obi i,
and one year ago Ins father died,
leaving su estate wort over SIOO,OOO
to which our hero was solo heir.
No sooner had he come into pus
session of his patrimony than lie set,
out for California to find and claim
tis his hndo who had given him tlio
parting promise ton yoats ago. Ho
was not long in ascertaining her
wlieteabouts, and lost no time in
paying a visit to her at homo near
the Columbia. That the ineeth g
was mutually agreeable is evi. ceil
by tho fact that the happy eouj le
now Mr amt Mrs Jacob Widber.
passed through Woodh'itd yester
day, en nmto to Ohio, via the
Southern l’acifio
Tho Boy.
An exchange says a boy will
tramp tii7 milos in one day on a
rabbit hunt and bo limber'in tlio
evening; when, if you ask Ifm to
g,u across the shoot, iiud borrow
Jour's two itrctrrnigßr, ho will be
as stiff us a mo L block. Of course
be will. And he will go swim,
ming all day and stay iu the water
three hours at a time, and splash
and dive and paddle and puff, and
tho next morning he will feel that
an unmeasured insult has bee t of
fered him when he is told by . hi.s
mother to wash his face carefully
so as’not to leave (he score of the
ebbiand flow so plain to be seen un
der the gill". And he will wander
around a dry creeic bed all tlio al
ternoon piling up a pebble fort and
nearly tlio off when bin big sister
wants him to please pick up a bask
et of chips for the p rlor stove; and
he’ll spend tho biggest part of tho
day trying to corner a stray male
or a bare-backed horse for a ride
and feel that all life’s cnarms h ive
fled when it comes time to drito
the cows, home, and he’ll turn a ten
acre lot upside down for ten inches
of angle worms, and wish for the
voioolcss tomb when tho garden
needs his attention. But all the
same, when ym want a friend who
will stand by you and sympathize
with you and be tru , to you in all
Kinds of weather enlist on one of
those same boys.

English as thy Speech of the
Future.
The success of the English speak
ing poople tis c/lonists and their
superior prolificness are riot the only
reasons for thinking that the Eng.
lisli tongue is destined to dominate
the world, Tho flexibility and
terseness of the English lan
guage his ma le it the language of
international telegraphy, and from
statistics just e Jleoied it appears
to be tbogreat newspaper language.
In other word*, it about equally di
vides the newspapers of the world
with all other tongues combined.
The total number of newspapers
and periodicals now published is
given II P Hubbard's forthcoming
Newspaper and Bank Directory of

with 12,400, the two together ma

Hever.il years ago a Metnodist n.mister

‘Hut Qod Almighty hasn't bad a jib iu

A sensible contemporary says,
Let tho frost help you. He means
that you shall plow up the soil, and
lot the freeze sot at liberty the

or freeze, you know, is the very best

A Case of Charity-
Detroit Free Presc.
One o p Detroi’s Millionaires was
w ilking homeward yesterday when he
encountered a lame man with a greasy
paper in his hand. As the pa : r came
to a halt the lame man said ;
Will you do me the favor to read
this paper?
Can’t do ft left my glasses at home,
was the reply.
Then I will state the contents to
you.
No us--*, no use. I’m so deaf that
I couldn’t catch more than one word
out of three.
I’m a poor man with a wooden leg,
sir,
Ves, 1 see, I see. Lots of poor men
have no wooden legs. You arc lucky,
sir, and 1 congratulate you. Must
have cost you fifty dollars, and I pre
sume it is a nice leg?
If you had any clothe, sir?
Yes, but I haven't.
Or old hoots?
I'm wearing mp old hoots, you
see. You are just six months too
early to got 'em.
Nor I either, Wo are cleaning

Old Saws Re-Set.
A greedy man Grd hates. A
great mark is soonest hit. A hasty
man never wants woe. A hungry
man is an angry man. A groat 6hip
must bavo deep water. A great
reputation is a great charge. A
guilty conscience needs no aeeuser.
A happy, heart makes a happy vis
ago. A handful of trade is a hand
ful of trade is a handful ol gold. A
jest driven far brings home bate.
A great m n’s foolish sayings pass
for wiso onos, A band-saw is a
good thing, but not to shavo with,
A joKe never gains an enemy, tut
often loses a friend, A joyful even
ing may iollow a sorrowful morn
ing. A great man and and a gre il
rfver aro often ill neighbors. A
handful of common senseis worth a
bushel of learnihg.
Albany News and Advertiser; The cry
throughout this whole section is hard
limes. No one has any money. There
is a large ntimber of people within the
corporate limits of our (own who are
scarcely making enough to Jive on.
Titnes are duller in Albany to-day than
they were list .Inly, ami.we fear that ma
ny will suffci this surmner ior the want
of something to eat. People will have to
rent cheap houses wear common clothes,
ami curtail expea.es in every possible
manner. Should the farmers make s
good croo this yem, they may save them
selves; shonid tle-y fail they will be fore
ed to turn their land and stock over to
new own; r- . and bid their old homes a
long and final farewell, and seek new
homes in other dimes. The prospec's at
priHcp are indeed gloomy, but wc shall
live in hopes if we die in despair,
