J "DO IT (JI'IVK, ROUEES The NaUlui.mlal V. nlur. of Two K.fi lui by l<ovcr, ('anuelton has a notoriety for runaway nmtelics not poaMessed by any other town iu the Htate. Ho eoinmou is it to see a runaway couple on our streets, that new arrivals are only noticed when their love affairs present some peculiar, startling, or novel feature not possessed by an ordinary elopement. Kentucky damsels have learn ed thut when an obstinate papa says “no I” a trip to Cumielton will set all things right. East week a young Indy of Hancock coun ty was the happy possessor of two ardent and demonstrative lovers. Being uu ex ceedingly sweet looking girl, there was nothing so singular iu her having two lov ers, except that they were brothels. Knell claimed that tire little angel loved only himself, and that the other was regarded with only a sisterly affection. On last Hu inlay morning tho rivals met on Uie roail, each being bound for the admired one’s huuc to team liis fate. A dispute arose, and they repaired to tho shades of an aged ouk to settle which was to be the possessor of this sweet little four foot i specimen of blushing loveliness. While these brothers weitc settling their little difficulty in this true Kentucky style, j a neighboring youth, who had also fallen a j victim to tiie lady’s charms, was proposing !an elopement to Cuunelton, the tire tun j (been for Kentucky lovers. This modest ! request was granted, and the couple started, and, as they passed tho resilience of a favorite minister near Hawesvilie, lie was requested to come over in a short time |und perform the ceremony, while tiie lovers continued their way to onr town to procure the necessary “arms and ammuni tion” to enable the man of God to do his ddty with no fear of hereafters. They came over, got possession of the necessary papers, and started up Front street. When they arrived at Castleberry bridge, tliey found it undergoing repairs and a large portion of the floor taken up. At this san e moment they beheld a sight well cal culated to muko their youthful hearts cease their harmonious beatings, and for the moment they saw their bright dreams vanish, and their ardent hopes dashed to the ground. They beheld a crowd of per sons crossing over from iluwesville, com iug with a swift and steady stroke, which but too plainly betokened their business and their determined purpose. The al most bride and groom grasped for breath, and clung to each other with a grip which denoted that tliey never more wished to be parted, looked around to seo which way they could run with safety, cast a longing yet frightened looked through the bridge to the water, for below, stepped one step nearer, but before taking the fatal leap they cast one more imploring glance across tho bridge, and suw, to their intense delight, the smiling countenance of ’Hquire Paterson at tho other side. They immediately hallooed ncross, and asked him if lie could many them, quick ! at the same time pointing to tho approaching skiff in the rivar. The ’,Squire took in' the situation at a glance, and shim ted to them U> scud on their paper*. Tito young man hastily gathered a dornick, and tying the license to it with his handkerchief, threw,it over to the ’Squire talking rapidly all Hie time, and explaining their cause for speedy ac tion, while the young lady was urging both on to greater speed by crying nt the top of her voice: “Here they come ! They are all ready to land! Do it quick, Mr. ’Squire 1” The Squire asked their names, and, being somewhat hurried by the pe culiar situation, yelled at the top of his voice, and without stopping to take breath. “John and Mary you are married 1 pro nounce you man and wife ro help you (tod amen so lie it run quick and tell them that what God hath joined together let no man put asunder tie the dollar to that brick anil throw it over!” and then, as he wiped the perspiration from his dripping fore head, he Raid, in ft calmer tone, “It's all right now." The young couple tinned, prepared and expecting to meet au angry father and furious brothers, but saw only the minister and a few friends, who had Come over as requested, and who were much chagrined to find that they were u little too lute. WANTED TO BE RELIGIOUS. The clergyman at our church last Sun day, while indulging iu some figurative ex pressions in hia sermon, used the phrase, “Like the roe w hich leaps upon the moun tain— ’’referring, of course, to the scrip tural animal of that. name. As 1 was coin ing out of church a horny-handed and sun burned fellow-pilgrim stopped up to me and said: "See yer, stranger ! whnt'd yon think of that feller in the pulpit ?" "1 think he is a pretty fair sort of a ni.in; near-sighted, may be, and poor; but taking him altogether, good” “Well, see yer, stranger! I>’d yen 'bserve what ho said about the roc jumpin' on a mountain ? It'd you hear him say that, ?” “Yes. YY hat about it ?” “Well, look ayer, eap, of course lie was a jokin’, ivu’n’t be?” “Certainly ho was not." “See yer, now, you don’t mean to any he was a tryin’ to gag that down ns as fact ? lie don’t reely believe that no roe ever jumped on ft mountain, now does ho ?” “He does, of coure, and so do I. I know it.” “Well, look ayer, mister; I’am a mere ehild 'bout most things. I can swallcr a’most any ordinary lie. Ton kin stuff me full of owdacions falsehoods when I’m sufferin’ from ignorance. Hut you must excuse roe on this. Yes, sir, I sour on yon when you ask me to gorge myself with that kinder lie. I've bin ketehin’ shad an’ herrin’most all my life, and gettin’ the roes outov’em; but I never soon no roe that could git up an, git when you ono’t laid it down. I wanter be religions; I wanter do right and b -cove in preach ers, but when you ask me to b’leeve that ary shad roe ever bounced up a hill and frolicked around over the grass, my stuni niick goes again it. It's too much, stran gor; much too much.” Then I unfolded the matter to him and he went away comforted. —Max A deter, i A Warning To Boys. —A certain doctor, struck with the large number of boys un der fifteen years of age whom he observed smoking, was led to inquire into the effect the habit had upon the general health, lie took for his purpose thirty-eight, boys, aged from nine to fifteen, and carefully examined them. In twenty-seven of them he discovered injurious traces of the habit. In twenty-two there wore disorders of the circulation and digestion, palpitation of the heart, and a more or less marked taste for drink. In twelve there was frequent bleeding of the nose; they had disturbed sleep; and twelve had slight ulceration of the mucous membrane of the month, which disappeared on ceasing from the esc of tobacco for some days. The doctor treat ed them alt for weakness, but, with little effeot until the smoking was discontinued, when health and strength were soon re stored. Now. this is no “old woman’s tale,” us these facts are given on the au thority of the "British Medical Journal." WESTERN J IST It E. “Mariar Jane,” called Bijidt, of Detroit, as lie handed out a lone woman and led her around to the eliulk mark. "And Mariah was drunk," added his Honor in a sml voice; "forty-three years old, goiug rapidly to tho grave, and yet so drunk thut you had to do huuled down hereon u wheel-bemow.” “On a hand-cart, sir,” she corrected, showing considerable interest. “Well there is a difference between a hand-eart and a wheel-burrow,” be went on; “but it doesn’t make any difference iu this ease. Iu fact tho hand-cart was the easiest thing, in the world to draw you on, ami more small boys could gather around it. I will alter the eompiuiut to make it read ‘hand-eart,’ and now I want to know what you have to say about it ?” Tears came to her eyes, her corset gave a heave or two, atid she whispered: "1 wanted to go to tiie eircus ” "Ah 1 that touche* a tender chord," sighed tho court, as he loaned back and listened to tho music of the brass baud floating on the early morning air, and saw in imagination tho trick mule, tho ele phant and the rhinoceros ambling around the sawdust ring—admission tiifty cents. "Mariar,” he said, at last in a changed voice, “you’ll die iu three or four years ftiiyliow, and perhaps it’s just ns well to lot you go to the circus os to send you to tiie workhouse. Mayhap the growl of the sea-lion, the snarl of the tiger, tho warble of the ostrich, and the gymnastic exercises of the monkeys, together with the stiring air of‘Old Dan Tucker,’ as rendered by the band, may put thought of reformation into your head. Go aged female, and remember its fifty cents save every time ono crawls under the cunvas."— Detroit Tree Fret*. GOOD NIGHT. How tenderly and sweetly falls the gen tle "good night” into loving hearts, as members of a family separate and retire for the night. What myriads of hasty words and thoughtless uets, engendered in yiejuirfy and lmsipess of the day, are forever blotted out by its benign influ ence. Small token indeed; but it is the little courtesies that make up the sum of a happy home. It is only the little cour tesies thut cun so beautifully round off tho square corners in the homes of laboring men and women. The simple “I thank yon" for a favor received, will fill with happiness the heart of tiie. giver. True wealth is not counted by dollars and cents, but by the gratitude and affection of the heart. If a home be happy, it is of heaven the truest earthly symbol, if a home be happy, whether the owner possess a patch of ground of one or a thousand acres, they are iu tiie end wealthy beyond mathemati cal calculations. Then how much more lovingly are tho sable folds of night gathered around the happy homes;ii&tv much more Confidingly do its members repose tlu ir weary bodies l iu the care of Divine goodness, soothing I their overtaxed minds to the realities of a ! beautiful dreamland; awakened, refreshed and invigorated for the comiug day’s lu j ls>r, by having bid their loved ones an affectionate “good night." And if, dur ; ing this life we have faithfully attended to i all these little courtesies, these little souk needs, if we hnvo gnawled carefully all "GwV-s hearts” placed irfotir keeping, at the close of its brief, yet eventful day, how much easier to bid all onr deariy be loved ones a Huai “good night.” BtrtotDE erf ut Axranrr.ix Tha-ron in I'amh.—Tim Baris (MutHMionnel says an Amerieun doctor named Hunt, re-iding at 120 Hue d’Aboukir, committed suicide by cutting his throat with a razor.
