, jir»' *"• Srw York U«r»M. • It is related of a Coni.w ticot wo-1 m in, --host husbaud died a sliorf time’iifro. Unit instead of lomiRitiK and lauguis >>u»f about until(mne one ask ed lier marry again, sbe |»lait.ly an nounced that she wanted n new hus band, and named the price ilint she wns ready to pay for a satisfactory ar ticle, Of course there were plenty ot applicants, and at least one of tin in met tli" widow’s views, for there was a wedding that very day. Thera is nothing romantic about this sort of match-making, but, on the other hand, there is no nonsense j about it. Iustend of listening to a j story so tender and ardent that she j could not have the heart to question the suitor’s fitness for the place to which he aspired, tbo widow adopted a mel hod that enabled her to talk sense beforo marriage, and learn what penalise there would be of a sentiment utiei ward. She did not consume a number of the best years of her iif> in wishing that one or another man would propose, but she ascertained, like a sensible woman, who was really in the market, and made her choice from those that were availuble. Sen timentalists may sneeriDgly say that the man married for money, hut will I they mention any other miiu who failed to do likewise when he had » chance ? The widow and her new husband began life with a distim i understanding, and without having had any lovers’ quarrels; let senti mental couples Bhow a better begin ning if they can. He Bought a Collin for Ills Wire, lint Filled It Himself, Some years ago there came to Cali fornia an ugod couple from Vermont They procured themselves a beautiful home within a few miles of Sacraiiien to City. The exemplary lifo they led caused them to always enjoy the con fidence, esteem and respect of all wli knew thorn. A few woiks since tl wife wns taken seriously ill. All that kind friends could do, and li host medical skill seemed to I nimble to stay the disease, ami In I life wiis despaired ’of The hiisbiuid, realizing that be would soon be i n.l< <1 upon to pay the last sad rites, uu.ll follow to the tomb nil that his heart bold most dear, began to pr.piii' himself for wlmt be supposed was n evitable. He came to the city, vnjte.i tbo cemetery and purchased the fin est lot tbat could bo obtained-- He then proceeded to an uudertiik. i's and purchased tbo best eusket that lie could find, nnd had it sent to his home. Ho spoko to a minister in re- gaid to the funeral service, selected tie- text from which be wished ih- fu neral sermon preached, and e.I the songs and requiems wi.n-h lie wished sung at her obseqni-s. T'-n divine and others renmrkeil t«> In (hat his preparations were mud- .wih undue hnste, nnd that it would b>i>k butter to wait until after the .lentil of his wife before rnnking these ■ui niige- iiieuts. Ho heeded not tl.. .1 advice, nor would he listen to then > i.treat ies. He said: “ She is going to die. Would to God there was, hut th. ru is no hope. For imiliv years ... have struggled aloug lit tong It lit. teg. iber, loved and cherished by each other.— I shall spare neither money nor pains to see tlmt sbe is de cently interred, and tbat her tomb shall he marked bv an everlasting monument.” Strange to sav, about the 1 line lie supposed his wit. would die -lie began to slowly rerow i. He ill :In* meantime became ill. .She grew rapidly better, and lie gradually became worse. In it couple . f weeks she entirely recovered, and I • died.

A splendid elevator, which cost about $40,000, and is the highest in the world, carried ns up. The elevator at the top supports on its four corner tubes the four cranes which lay the stone, if ne cessary, on the four sides at once. A little railroad brings iu the great blocks of stone, weighing from two to six tons apiece, and places them on the elevator, with a low car beneath the stone. The elevator is open, and I had to sit down and hug the stone to avoid dizziness and the terrible tumble down the stone shaft The elevator ascends very delib erately and smoothly, and will curry ten tons. As the monument is built up ward, the elevator is mortised into it, and continues to rise twenty feet at a time. The blocks of marble, seven feet long and two feet square, are set as easily os bricks in French limo and Portland cement. The block wo went up with was in its place in ten minutes. The walls at the bottom are fifteen feet thick, and at that point, U there were no cavity, would mako a solid shaft of stone thirty feet thick. At the point where they are now setting stone the walls are only seven feet thick, and at the top, 600 feet above the ground, will be only a foot and a half thick. The exterior, or facing of marble, is only four-sevenths of the present thickness. The lining, of Capo Ann 'unite, is join tod through at certain s; vith the marble to unite the two 4 stone more thoroughly. No hot wed for bolts nnd rivets anywh. . ; .eh mar ble stone, os described, when put into plooo has cost $76. The marble is quar ried about Bixty miles from the monu- pi P Tit, Tho 150 feet of the shaft finished nearly thirty years ago is miserable work compared to tho present, nnd the irreg ular stone of that period nru tho only suggestions of weakness alioiit tint edi fice. The monument ran be finishod in three years. It will have a lantern or cupola on tho top, of iron, fifty feet higher titan the masonry, making C50 feet in nil. Every foot of the shaft has been underpinned with a solid apron or platform of stone 100 feet square. At tho top thirteen men work constantly, quiet os pigeons in u barn-cote. Tho immense fort of stone at that great height is beautiful iu its symmetry, as largo as a comfortable dwelling. The view is already grand, comprising the whole District of Columbia and many miles of Virginia. The city looks like a mass of loose stones carelessly cast over the plain, with some toy public build- lugs lying between.— Was/ihiytou biter. CHILD y.ITVMK. Nay, have we not ourselves the re- ; membronce of a time, when, having j striven with ull the might of cm eliitd- nnture to overcome u defect or to do Borne good deed, we hungered for a Word of commendation and encourage ment, but we hungered in vatu. We possibly can evou now recall the pang which almost rent our hearts asunder when, instead of the recognition of our starving, we were rated on the manifes tation of auother and different fault.
