Literary Note.
With ita next number Harper 1
Young People begins ita third rob
ume. Tlio two years of tliis periodi
cal’s gro vtli have lifted it from a vig<
orous infancy to a robust youth. The
aim of ita publishers has been to make
Harper’s Young People attractive
without being sensational, and to
this end they have secured the servi
ces ofa high class ol writers and ar-
tiats. This fact baa been recognised
by the Chautauqua 'Young People’s
Union* which lias included this illus
trated weekly among the works which
the members of the Union are re
quired to read■ The author of ’Toby
Tyior’ will contribute to the new vol»
ume of Harper's Young People a
story called ‘Mr Stubbs’ Brother.'
The boys and the girls who have read
‘Toby Tyler’ need not be told who
‘MV. Stubbs’ is, and they are sure to
welcome bis brother with open arms.
An Armed Comp.
Uuelin is a captured city. From
the London journals we learn that it
contains over 5,000 soldiers—cavalry,
artillery and infantry—besides about
2,000 police, who are soldiers in all
but. name, being armed with rifles,
swords and revolvers. There are
1,000 horses and sixteen guns. Every
sentinel is provided with twenty
rounds of ball cartridge. TroopB in
garrison ore confined to barracks,
ready to torn out at a moment’s no
tice. Five military magistrates,and
three civil magistrates have been
dally apuointed, and the city
been divided into three districts, for
the more prompt administration of
justice. Ail these arrangements ins
dicate the serious state ot afiairs and
the strong resolution of the govern-
raeut '
Oaror non-Ison’s lin.le.
It being rumored that Carter Har
rison, Mayor of Chicego, was about to
bsoome a blushing bridegroom, a re
porter ventured to interview him on
the ddioate subject, and received the
fnftrwing reply.:
*1 don’t know which most to ad
mire, your cheek or your question.
The former is the most brilliant that
I ever saw. To your qnestioo I reply,
yes, sir, I am; I've got a bride and 1
am going to kick to her until I’m
forced to be divorced. She has more
sterling energy, more grand worth,
and withal a brow on which sits a
coronet of stars. Bolemon, in all bis
glory, was not arrayed liko unto here
I am wedded to her and I will be true
to her until my dying day. My brid.
is the city of Chicago."
A Magnanimous Woman.
Chicago Tribune.
’Twas a terrible moment. She was
evidently drowning, while the crowd
on shore stood helpless and horrified.
At this juncturo some one yelled out,
‘Ob, tor a boat 1’ But there was no
boat within ten miles. The suspense
became awful, and the sun sank into
the misty bosom of the west like a
bloody pumpkin. Ail at once a fe
male voioe was beard above, the roar
of the breakers. ‘Never mind the
boat, take one of my shoes.’ It wps
the voice of a heroia Chicago woman,
and the applause that greeted it was
heard three hundred miles at sea.

Or. O. ROBINSON & CO.,
It is said that the south is kept
poor because the people raise nothing
for themselves, or next to nothing,
and wo suspect there is a good deal
of yuth in this. We go in for bis
crops ot ootton, and sell it at a good
price, but it takee all, and more, than
it bring! to buy bur supplies for rai
sing the next crop. Whereas, if we
grow our own broad and meat and
make our own shoes, hoes, furniture
and oiothing, the big crops of cotton
and tobacco would be all clear gain.
