Thus with all the Coras. They goon pining for princes that never coma; marrying all sort of people instead; and, dying, give way to u fresh race of Coras, who follow in their mamma’s footsteps with a disregard of experience that savors of the sublime. One of the sweetest of kvattiiiig-pluccs is Happy Valley. It is romantic and coni lortable at ouce. There is delightful bathing, rowing, sailing, and fishing in the lake itself, and the shady groves that line its shores sre cool nn;l green and mysterious, und suggestive of dryads and nymphs anil fail ies pud things. That is, if you happen to bo of a poetic turn of mind. If not, they only suggest flirta tions, _ I will not further expatinto upon the delights of Happy Valley, list it should be fancied that I have lots for sale in the vicinity, whereas I have none anywhere— not even a burial lot; and that, I believe, is the common lot, of all. Neither did Cora Depqytter have any raid testate to dispose of, lmt she thought just as I df> and passed much of the time every sum mer m the fair demesnes ting lie smilingly adjacent, to the Happy Valley l’avdion. Notwithstanding tho round of pleasures fn which she every Stimmor ' took prohii nent part she could not stifle her inward and continuous yearning for the music of a princely voice, the glance of devotion from princely eye* thfoiufleh of a pfineoly hand in the dance, and the sweet envy of all maidens who had to go priuoolei* through life. She sighed a great dealt and began to timik.tUo greak wnrid 11 hard/irtiroinawtio sort* m ha zn^algement] Of course, you and I know better. I never wrote a romance yet half so wonder ful as the simplest life would make were it truly told. The only trouble is that the simplest life cannot bo truly told. It seems easy, but you try it ouce ! Though there was no prince among the Pavilion boarders, there was a poet. Ar thur Bayne was there. It is barely possi ble that Cora might have falh n m love with him; there is something very Hue and hyfslatiu—pardon the expression—in a young lady’s idea of a poet. But then Arthur Bayne was altogether different from her ideal. Ho knew the world too well to believe in its hollowness. Ho had found it iu feet a very round, hard, and stubborn sort of thing. I notice that men who hove really been shaken up a bit in the merry-go-round we call life are not apt to preserve the outside show of senti- j luentalisui to any great extent We all start off, some time or another, with our longhair, our turn-down collars, our sta ble suits, our brigand hats, and our little hidden Borrows; but when wo have cut our ey< -t.e:h and learned something about other folks’ trouble we always come bank to reason, to plaid neektic*, to stove-pipe - hVts and the barber. Arthur was too matter of fact for Cora and she too sentim< uUil for him from any hymeneal point of view, yet they somehow became very excellent friends. Oneeveu iug they sat on th shore of the little lake together. Cora was gazing at the moon, of comae. Khe was one of that kind. She had lieen telling Arthur wliat kind of a hero she had imagined for her heart-his tory, and descrilied the prince with his melting eyes and musical voice, his gen erous nature and .magnificent air, his mild melancholy and inexhaustible affec tion, his irreproachable morals and aris tocratic birth. Arthur listened with due gravity until she had finished. “Why don’t you take me?” he asked. “I am uot very rich, but then poverty isromsutio. 1 can’t play the giutar, but I know a fellow who is splendid On the i banjo. As lor a fine antique fnmlv, my I father was Mr. Bavne, son of Old Bayue; 1 I believe lu; newer went to State prison.” “Now, Arthur, you ore top bad ! You ; make fun of everything, ’ “Well, to be serious, child, you’ll never find your prince.” “And why not ?” “Because"they don’t make ’em. Most men are tolerably human, and humanity in not perfection. If a man has no other mini I vices he is sure to chew tobacco, write poetry, os keep a dog. We are fair but frail, we men." “Ah. Mr. Bayne ! what a world it is ! I : wish there might tie some place where one might go and hide away and dream in IjH'aae." . • I •'TlUre is, and lam 'going there now. I refer to my bed.” The next morning the belles of Happy Valley VMM iu a twUtigr. Thp late train the p4*fct befoiw had bronght anew young man, aud young men were not a drug at the Pavilion, The new comer had taken the flneet suite in the establishment, and a great pile of trunks with his initials stood in the yestubute, where the wore jealously regnrded by the other young men. heartbroken with thooonciousness of possessing tUrt a single trunk, and that, perhaps, a small one. When it became known that the unknown was really on the piazza, smoking a cigar, allsont* ofdipki nmCifdrtmriihhViffs vrbre resorted to to gets fair sight of him on Ilia part of She young ladies. Cora Depoyster denounced it as an inhibition of brazen ill-breeding in others. As for herself, she only stood at the window, which commanded the piazza, nod scrutinized him through an opera glass. Montgomery Hmythe—-tor snch was the name which appeared on the register—ln three days* time found himself a favorite with tho ladies. He was of tho conven tional tyjwi of magnificence—the block haired, black-eyed, red-cheeked style, j with small feet, dyed mnstaclie. and eye- ] glasses. In the matter of scarfs and neck ties, with tho jewelled pins thereto devoted he was tiufylgorgeons. If a man has tl e leiist taint of vulgarity let him beware fo his neck.

Bhe wus in love.niter prince fiiulinmbc, ' As'the (lays wore bn tills reg'nl person developed. He gave suppers in his room j to the young bloods, and organized picnic parties iu the woods thereabout which ! made the. belles of the Pavilion quite miig-ralde With happiness. To Cora’s intense delight he mode her in some sort the central figure in these last charming gjfuirs,, aiyl. Uylsl profound oonsiUtatious \ri(h her concerning the details. They thus became associated in a certain degree before the public eye, and when rumor whispered au engagmeut, Cora did little triore tffaft blush and stammer a denial that souuded ever so much like a confir mation. blmgqvo lK'Qiiif up to ft sort of blind .AdJ-lwan Montgomery Brnythe. Bhe made a prince of him first and put all trust in him afterward. He told her of his ancient filthily; of Ilia late father, Judge Dewey, twice United Bbites Senator, and son of Commodore Hmythe, of the war ,of 1612. The eommodore’s father, lie 8 irts GetuYiVSmythe, of revolnt'obnry fame, and brother to Governor Hmythe of one of the colonies under George HI. He tallied of the magnificent old country seat his father had li ft him, with its picture-gallery full of the portraits of the old worthies just mentioned and their wives; all uniforms and bfocadfis and gold braid and luces; of tho long drawing rooms, the grand dining-lmll, tho library, the grounds -all in true baronial stylo, till Cora, rich and luxuriously reared ns •he wus begnn to look up to him ns a being uf au ultogeUier iligurcutunil higher sphere. .Qyie clay they look a walk in the grove itrfherrude of the Pavilidn. !t Wus tho rinsing up of tho season, and the next day there was to be a general exodus of the Happy. Vallily boarders to their homes. Cora felt that the deed i, e menu nt had arrived; and it laid. The hitherto pent up devotion of Montgomery Hmythe found vent at last in a declaration and a proposition. He vowed his love in a perfectly princely style, and having been accepted with a good many blushes and tears, jnst ns is tho case in all well-written novels, he informed her that letters just receive from his confidential agent in Eu ropa eoiuiVrHed’hjm to start immediately for Paris and hfghd her to marry him at once without waiting to go through the form of asking the permission of her gransire or consulting her friends. Was ho not monfgomery Hmythe ? and who cimld'pOKSilily object to such an alliance ? It is very possible that Cora might have consented, so infatuated was she with her priuoe, but she hail read that the regular thing was to demand time for considera tion, so she postponed her decision, which really was already made, until evening. As they ranched the piazza, lie lazily tapping his glooay hoot with his bamlioo, and she very tremulous and very happy, a thickset pock-marked individual, with black, heavy whiskers and a glazed cap, came down tho steps and, nodding to Hmytlwv, said t < “I’d like to say a private word to you, young man.” Montgomery Hmythe suddenly stopped tapping his boot and, turning pale, looked sharply at the stranger. A slight vibra tion of that person’s eyelid nun W him turn still paler, and without word lie walked several steps away from tho Pavilion. The stout man then slowly drew a large poeket-book from his breast, favored Hmythe with a view of certain documents therein contained, immediately after which lie Baid aloud: "You’its my prisoner, sir, iu the name of the law !” Cora felt like fainting, but her curiosity was more tbau a match for her weakness. Smythe looked toward her, laughed a little, gasping laugh, and tried to say that this ridiculous mistake could be easily ex plained. "Let this person explain it, then,” said porn, t rembling all over. "Why, yon see, miss," said the stout man, "I’m a detective officer, and I’ve been laying for this young gentleman some time. 1 have his photograph here, miss, if you’d like to see it.” And he produced a carte tie risi/e the very twin of one (’era bad but that mo ment stowed away among her treasures. "There ain’t any mistake about him, is there ?” said tho detective, grimly. "But for what—for what is he—is--is he —arrested ?" faltered the poor girl. “Why, miss, you see, he left California too suddenly, with all tho spare cash of the proprietor of the Pacific Hotel—thirty thousand dollars—and a matter of five thousand dothu'* more in jewelry, belong ing t<! the boarders of the house.” "But, Sir. Smythe " "Smythe ! that ain’t his name, miss. He’s plain Bill Higgins, fancy bar keeper of tho Pacific. I’m very sorry for you, miss. I don’t s’poso you had nny idea who you were with. Good morning.” She looked nt Montgomery Smythe, but lie did not raise his eyes, nor open his mouth. Plainly, the detective had told the truth. She turned to tho hotel. Happily t e who e affair had esc pln tee. Montgomery Smytlie was luioady on his way to the depot, arm in arm witli the stout man, and as they turned a bend in the road Cora took a last, sad, farewell look at her prince. The shock made her seriously ill, aud when she recovered the 1 nonsense was pretty thoroughly washed j out of her. j Arthur Bayne was not the man to tri- I omph over the full of any oue. On tho contrary, ho was too generous, and when i the people begun to make remarks about j this unfortunate episode in Cora’s exis tence he married her himself to shut their i mouths. The Matrimonial Knot in Japan. An honest couple have a marriageable daughter, and the latter is acquainted with a fine young fellow who would be a capital match, if only lie possessed the necessary means of making his lady-love and her jiarents the indispensable wed ding presents, and of keeping-open house for a week. One fine evening, the father and mother returning from tho bath, find tire house empty —the daughter gone. They make inquiries in the neighborhood; no one has seen her, hut the neighbor* hasten to offer their services in seeking her, together with her distracted pareuts. They accept the offer and head a solemn procession, which goes from street to street, to the lover’s door. In vain does he, hidden behind his panels, turn a deaf ear; he is nt length obliged to yield to the importunities of the besieging crowd; lie opens the door, and the young girl, drowned in tours, throws herself at the feet of her parents who threatened to curse her. Then conies the intervention of charita ble friends deeply moved by this spectacle; the softening of tne mother; the proud and inexorable attitude of the father; the 1 combined eloquence of the mnltiln.le eraple.yed to soften his heart; the lover’s | endless protestations of his resolution to [ become the best of sons-in-law. At j lsngth the father yields hi* resistance is overcome, he raises his kneelingdaughter, jiardons her lover, und calls him son-in - law. Then, almost as if by enchantment cups of saki (an intoxicating liquor made from rice) circulate through the assembly; ; everybody site down upon tho mats, the two culprits are placed in the centre of the circle, large bowls of saki are handed to them, and when emptied, the marriage is recognized, and declared to be validly j contracted in the presence of a sufficient | number of witnesses, and it is registered next day by the proper officer without nny difficulty. War Horse*. These intoresing animals, when hit in battle, stop, tremble in every muscle, and groan deeply,'while their eyes show deep astonishment. During the battle of Water loo, some of the horses as they lay upon the ground having recovered from the first ag ony of their wounds, fell to eating the grass about them, thus surrounding themselves with a circle of bare ground, the limited extent of which showed their weakness. Others were observed quietly grazing on the field, between the two hostile lines, their riders having been shot off their backs; and the balls flying over their heads and the tumult behind, before, and around them, caused no interruption to the usual instinct of their nature. It was also ob served that when a charge of cavalry went past near to nny of thestray horses already mentioned, they would set off, form them selves in the rear of their mounted com panions, and though without riders, gal lop strenuously along with the rest, not stopping dr flinching when the fatal shock with the enemy took place. At the battle of Kirk,in 1745, Major MacDonald having unhorsed an English officer, took posses sion of his horse, which wus very beauti ful, and immediately mounted it. When the English cavalry fled the horse ran away with its captor, notwithstanding all his efforts to restrain him;nor did he stop until it was nt the head of tho regiment of which, apparently, its master was the com mander. The melancholy und at the same time ludicrous figure wliicli MacDonald presented when he thus saw himself the victim of his ambition to possess a fine horse, which ultimately cost him his life upon the scaffold, may be easily conceived. - —4- Seven—The Number of the Bible. On the seventh day God ended his work. On the seventh month Noah’s Ark touched tho ground. In seven days a dove was sent. Abraham pleaded seven times for Sodom. Jacob mourn and seven days h t Joseph. Jacob served seven years for Ba chel. And yet another seven years more. Jacob was pursued a seven days’ journey by Laban. Aplenty of seven years and a famine of seven years were foretold in Pharaoh’s dream, by seven fat anil seven loan beast, and seven ears of full nnd seven ears of blasted corn. On the seventh day of the seventh month the children of Israol fasted seven days uud remained seven days in their tents. Every seven years tho land rested. Every seven years the law was read to the people. In tho destruc tion of Jericho seven persons bore seven truwphets seven days; on the seventh day they surrounded the walls seven times, and at the end of the seventh round the walls fell. Solomon was seven years build ing the temple, and fasted seven days at its dedication. In tho tabernacle were seven lamps. The golden candlestick hnd seven branches. Naamon washed seven times in the river Jordan. Job's friends sat with him seven days and nights, and offered seven bullocks and seven rams for an atonement. Our .Savior spoke seven times from tho cross, on which he hung seven hours, and after his resurrection ap peared seven times. In the Revelations we read of seven churches, seven candlesticks, seven stars, seven trumphets, seven plagues, seven thunders, sevou rials, nnd a seven-headed monster. • A Truthful Boy. A good little boy but West undertook to come the G. Washington on his mother iu this way. He cut oft’ the oat’s head with the tra ditional little hatchet, and then hid the defunct feline in the meal barrel. When the old lady went for meal to make the “hoe cnke’ r for the frugal morning repast she discovered that cat and interviewed her little son. Hesnid: “I did it, mother, with my little hatchet, but I’ll be swizzled if I can tell you the whole truth about this little affair. ” Now most mothers would have kissed that Brave., truthful lad on his noble brow and kept rightou using the meal out of that barrel just the sumo; but this one didn't. She said, — “Come across my lap, my son; come across my lap.” He came, and for a while there rose a cloud of dust from the scat of his trousers that effectually hid the son from view, aud the old woman now sports goggles and is lavish iu the use of Petit’s eyqsalve. That good little boy had pepperedjtlic seat of his pants. Iu 1872 the value of commodities moved by railroads is estimated at over ten mil lions of dollars, and the gross receipts of railroads in moving tie same reached four hundred and seventy-three millions of dol lars. Senator Wiudom, of Minnesota, in his recent speech before the United States Senate, on the oheap transportation, ques tion, made the above startling statement. Sam Jones, lived up iu Orange County. Now, Sam was an enormous eater, and it happened that he was one day hauling a load of “shook” to the nenrest village, when his team was stuck iu a sand-hill, Well, did Sam fret and scold his oxen, or on load his team ? Not he. He very coolly took down his dinner from the load, sat down and ate it, when bis oxen startl'd off’ with the rest ot the load without fur \ ther trouble. ! Josh Billings says codfish is ns good as l lUI umbrella to keep one dry. A Bit of Western “Treason.” Tlie UuzeUe lias an article, the purport of which is that lor a man to stand np for the interests of the West and Houth against the aggressions of the East is to be guilty of treason. Well all we have to say in reply is, that if such he the case tho laud is full of traitors and treason is the best tiling going. The West asks nothing of the East hut justice, and that it lias never been able to The West has Always been a step-child, and the East has been a harsh and unnatural mother. It lias, opposed any extension of Western tcritory. It tried to give away the free navigation of the Mississippi und Ohio rivers to all countries for the comparatively contemptible privilege of a few Eastern fishermen catching fish and drying them on some of the British islands off the coast of Labrador. It al ways endeavored to maintain extensive Indian reservations in the West, which were not to be opened to white settlement. It has opposed liberal homestead laws, in order to delay population in the Western wilds. It has opposed tho organization of the Western Territories, and the ad mission of Western Htotes into the Union, because in the future they would be bar- ; riers to its encroachments. Tho tariffs have been of Eastern manu facture. The East has been protected; the West has p<iiil/or the protection.. The Atlantic coast has nearly all the appropri ations from the public treasury; the West ern rivers have been neglected. It is unconstitutional the East believes, to bike a snag ont of the Mississippi or the Ohio river. The Eastern ffsli-catcher has his fish free of duty;-tho Western pork or beef-packer pays a big duty upon the salt which he uses. The East owns tho gov ernment Imuils; the West pay the inter est. The East has the National Bunks, and the west pays for their circulation. The East has money to lend; the West has money to borrow. The East says money must be scarce, in order that the West shall pay an immense interest. Money is therefore made scarce to nccom modate them. Hix little Eastern Htates, having a population but a trifle more than Ohio, have twelve United Htates Senators to Ohio’s two. In order that the East may have this advantage forever this is the only section of the Constitution made by the East which it is forbidden us to clmuge, except with the unanimous consent of every State. In the distribution of political power, in its arrangement of tariffs cur rencies and internal improvements, we of the West have only known the East as a swindler and a thief. When it was ne eessnty to fight Groat Britain in behfilf of Eastern seamen, the West audJSouth hail to do it. The East cowardly slunk from the contest, and in its Hartford Conven tion plotted to secede from the Union and to annex itself to the territories of the enemies. The worst of it is that we hove many fools in the West who like tho writer in the Oatette, have taken sides against their own people, aud in other respects aided and sustained tho aggres sive robbers east of the Alleghany Moun tains.—Cincinnati Enquirer. A Puzzled Dutchman. One who does not believe in immersion for baptism was holding a protracted meet ing, and one night preached on the sub ject of baptism. In the course of his re marks he said sumo believe it necessary to go down into the water, and come ont of it.to be baptized. But this he claimed to be j a fallacy, for the preposition "into” of the Scriptures should be rendered differently, fi*r it does not ma#n if to at all times. “Moses,” ho said, ■'w.’ftre told, went np into the mountain, and the Saviour was tiken into a high mountain, etc. Now wo do io supjoie that either went into a : mountain, but unto it. So with g"iug down into the water; it simply means go ing down close by or near the water, and being baptized in the ordinary way by sprinkling or pouring.” He carried out this idea fully, and in due season and style closed his discourse; when an invitation was given for any one so disposed to arise and express bis thoughts. Quite a number of this brethren arose ami said they were glad they had been present ou this occa sion; that they wore well pleased with the sound sermon they had just heard,and felt their souls greatly blessed. Finally, a corpulent gentleman of Teutonic extrac tion. a stranger to ull, arose and broko n silence that was most painful, as follows: “Mister Breacher, I mli so glad I vash hero to-night, for 1 has lmd explained to my mint some dings dat I never could plief pefore.

Last Friday, while Lewis was working in a field, he was taken ill. Brother workmen assisted him to his home where he was seized with hydrophobia, raving, foaming at the mouth, and mani festing all the symptoms of that terrible disease.
