Uy this time he had worked himself up to the neeea*arv pitch, and rushed to the bed-room to re duce tbe curly haired cuss to mince meat.

For two month*she suffered intensely from a fever brought on by the injuries to her back, and it was throe months before ,lic could aitnp. But when she had recover ed from the fever she wns unable to walk tare by the aid of crutche*. The broken leg was useless anil uerer ceased lo psiu her. It was swollen from the lues to the knee and waa colored a dark purple. The circulation wa* alnio-t stopped, and the leg and foot InTaine cold. The f-iot was bent out of position so that only the toes touched the floor. Tla- fainily physician exhausted his akill upon it, and after several month* ret*“d to doctor it, believing that only a higher power could heal it Instead of medicine lie resorted to prayer. At last Mr*. Thurston her self ceased lo work ti ith it, and she Mo commenced to prar for ft* re storation. One doctor said ft must b- cut off or it would mortify, or eU“ wither away and die. If the limb wa* cut off iic dcrired to pur chase it for scientific purpose*. About tliia time alie was taken nick with “iphtlieria. ami her step-son came from Rockland to to take care of her. One day he wa* telling her of a lame man down En*t who was healed l>v the prayer* of Fred Mc- Kenny, evangelist from Portland. Both determined at once to pray for the restoration of the impotent imb, and both kont their determi nation. That night the foot wns so had that even tho drawing of n sheet over it gnvc her intense psiu. In the morning tho foot, anklo and log were iu all things like tho other and a* strong. Several hours af terwards, n* her son went to her bedside to give her the medicine, ■he thought flashed upon him: If God healed the foot can ito not also euro her of this disease ? So he did not give her the medicine, hut went and kneeled down at n sofa in.front of her bed and there silently pray ed : “Oh Lord! make her" every whit whole.” Immediately his mother, though looking et him when ho knelt, dropped off to sleep and dreamed that the room was full of ponple,all exclaiming: “You are made every whif whole.” In a abort timo she awoke, and, in at tempting to tell her drcain found that she waa indeed every whit whole. That morning she rose up and drtoaed bene f, and on tho fol lowing Sabbath attended church. Hunky F. Tiiu.ist&n. Training ol Dnnghtern. Perhaps one of the most lament able errors of the present day is tho manner in which girls aro trained. While proud ami happy parents aro desirons that their daughters bo ac complished iu music, drawing, painting, and tho languages, they seem totally to ignore the most nec essary art ot housekeeping and homo mnking, or imagine the knowledge of such to bu degrading. We know of no more pitiable object than a young wife, placed at the hoed of her husband’s home, utter ly ignorant of Iter duties as its mis tress. Trials, well calculated to make her life miserable, await her, and many of the unuappy marriage* of which wo know anu hear, have their origin in just each causes; for while men are loving and indulgent they are selfish, and but Tew have sufficient self-denial to bear patient ly the mistakes that interfere so ma terially with their comforts. A girl who baa been raised in a well-regulated and orderly house hold, cannot understand the misfor tunes of such wives as we speak, it is not only a knowledge of house keeping which is so essential to the well-being of a family, but it is equally necessary to bo thoroughly acquainted with tbe art of home- making. It don not do far tht wife and mother to limit her efforts to tho wants only—physical, mental and moral—of the family; she must un derstand how to keep her house rlean and orderly; when and by what mcatis her house became filled with impure air. She must know what kinds of food are easiest di gested, which kind are nutritous. This, of conrse, demands some knowledge of philosophy and chem istry. Then, too, she must under stand tmw to make clothing suitable for wittier and anmnier. In short, a good wife and mother must be familiar with the science of health and the laws of hygine. Many person* imagine that money ill do away with all theso trials and inconveuienoes. Till* Is all a mistake. Money will not work; ft only pars for having it doue, and when the mistress it ignorant and incapable, much cannot bo expected from the servant*. We have teen well trained, competent housekeep ers take an indifferent cook or laun dress. and by patience, and occa sional directien ol affairs, have the work satisfactorily done; whilo on the other hand, we have known Ig norant and inexperienced mistresses to utterly fall in lrnving anything a comfort in her household when employing a good servant, for everv establishment must have a good Secretary of War Floyd. rc*olveil i<> give the lobby a cold shower liatli. lie tlicrcfiiVa -oflercd to In- &IUU.OOU that lie could put ou a mail line rroih Sacramento to Si. Joseph that should make tho dUtnnce— 1,930 mile*—infteti (iays.J 3 Thc bet wa* taken mid tlie 8th of April fixed upon ax tlie day for starting. Mr. Russell railed upon his partner ami general manager of business upon i’te plain*, Mr. A. B. Miller, now a citizen of Deuvcr, and stated what lie hail done, and asked if he could I erfo: in the feat. Miller replied * Y- s, sir; I will do ft, and do it by p-.ny express.” To accomplish thi* Mr. Miller purchased 300 of the fleetest hor-e* lie could find in the IVest, amt employed 125 men Eighty ot there nu-u were to be post rider*. These he selected with ref erence in their light weight and their known daring ami courage. It was very cs-ential that the lior*cs shounl be loaded as light as possible; there fare the lighter the tnnu the better. It was nccosiry that some portions uf the route should run at the rate of twenty miles an hour. The hor- *ea were stationed from ten to twen ty mile* apart, nml each rider uould be i-i-qu-rcd to ride sixty miles. For tho change of animal's mid the shifting of the mails two minutes, were allowed. Where there were no stage stations at proper distances tents sufficient to hold one man nml two horses were provided. Indiana would some time* give chase, but their cayusc ponies made hilt sorry show in their cbnsc after Miller’* thoroughbred*, many of which could make a siugle mile in n infinite and fifty seconds. All arrangements being complet ed,* signal gun on the sicamcr at Sacramento proclaimed the merid ian of April 8, 18fi0—the hour for a arting—when Border Ruffian, Mr. Miller’* privnte saddle-horse, with Billy Baker in llic saddle, bounded • way toward the loothillx of the sierra Nevada*, and made his ride -•f twenty miles in forty minutes. The snows were deep in the moun tains, amt one ridCr wns lost for several hours in a snow storm; and and after Hie Sail Lnko Valley was reached additional speed bccdnio necessary to roach St. Joseph on lime. From thcro on all went woll until tho i’latta was lobe crossed at Julcsburg. Tho rivur was up and mulling rapidly, but tho rider plunged, his horse into tho flood ■inly, how ever, to ntiro in the quick Hand and drown. The courier sue (■ceded in reaching the shore with Ids mall bag iu hand, and traveled leu miles on foot to reach tho next relay. Joliu Fry, a popular rider of his day, was lo make the finish. Ilo had sixty miles to ride, with six horses to do ft. When tlm last courier arrived at the sixty mile post out from St. Joseph, ho was one hour behind time. A heavy rain had set in and the roads were slip pery. Two hundred thousand dol lars might turn upon a single min ute. Fry had just thirty-live min utes in which to win. This waa the finish of the longest race, for the largest stakes ever run iu America. When the time for hi* arrival was nearly up, at least five thousand people stood upon the river bank with eye* torned towards the woods from which the horse and its rider should emerge into the open coun try. in tbe rear of Elwood—one mile from the finish. Tick, tick, went thousands of watches! The time waa uearly op! But seven min utes remained! Hark! asbontgoes up from tbe assembled multitude, “He comes! he comes!” The noble little mare, Sylph, tbe daughter of Little Arrow, darts like an arrow from tbe bow and makes the ran of tbe last mile in one minute and fifty seconds—landing upon the fer ry boat with five minutes and a frac tion to spare.

A mail from Missouri was just ahead of him, and inquired if there was aqy letter thcro for Zacbariah Burch. “Be yon the fellor?” queried tho postmaster. “I am.” “Oamcd Zacbariah, are ye?” “Yes, sir.”' “Too infernal long for this coun try.
