PARK BEMJAMTN, JR., BCRTBNEB FOR OCTOBER. "The prisoners fetch V shrieked the captain bold, A pirate captain full fierce was he With a big mustache and beard three days old, For he never would shave when he went to sea. "Drag forth the crew of that merchant bark. Throats must be gashed ere the moon grow pale." The pirate ship in the midnight dark, Fitfully rocked to the rising gale. "S blood r yelled the captain. '"S blood and s'd death ! Daggers and gore ! am I not obeyed !" Grinding his fangs as he paused for breath, He savagely 'round with a handspike laid. But on never a soul did his wild blows fall, For the night was dark and he couldn't see; Besides, on that deck was no one at all, Why was this thus? Why should such things be? A horrible laugh o'er the tempest pealed, O'er the wet waves seething, dark and vexed, A hideous howl as the pirate reeled, Clutched by (Continued In our next) OBSERVATIONS, Edison can invent as much as he pleases and not be called a liar.

Palmer, of Illinois, a former Republican, and more recently the Liberal who was so Imposed upon by the Eliza Pinks ton affair, has become a pronounced Democrat Springfield Republican : Now let Kearney howl a fresh howl against the "leprous Chinese." The Chinese residents of San Francisco have raised $1,200 for the yellow fever sufferers. At a large hotel In Scarborough it Is said the landlord loses as many as fourteen hundred nap kins a year by reason of the guests putting them in their pockets in mistake for pockethankerchiefs. It seems to be a serious question with RepubUcan sheets whether the Nationals are to swallow the Democrats or the Republicans. Judging from the way things look in Pennsylvania and some other States, the Republicans are to be the swallowed party. Louisville has a child revivalist who is only four years old, and a negress. She can neither read nor write, yet is able to repeat almost any passage In the Bible with astonishing accuracy. Her success as an exhorter is very great, she creating a perfect furore wherever she goes. Mrs. Augusta Evans Wilson lives in a pretty coun try house near Mobile, surrounded by books, pic tures and flowers. She is described as the most charming talker in the South, and as the possessor of a broad open brow, straight brown hair, earnest eyes and expressive mouth. Pensacola, Fla., chicken thieves are entitled to the blue ribbon for their Ingenuity. A party of them surround a house, and proceed to get up a flrstrclass serenade. While the musical portion of the gang thus entertain the family, the rest steal around to the chicken coop, and bag their prey. East Liverpool, Ohio, Is warmed and Ughted by its natural gas wells. The gas gives a flame that almost rivals the electric light in brilliancy, and It costs so little that the lamps in the city streets are kept burning day and night It is used in private houses and factories alike, and cooks a steak or heats a furnace. A servant girl in one of the summer cottages re cently bumed In Lenox, Mass., carefully, gathered $7,000 worth of jewelry in her apron and started down stairs. Before getting out she remembered that her own money was in her room in the attic, and so threw away the contents of her apron and rushed back to save $100. A Scotch clergyman has pointed out a remarka ble misprint occurring in all editions of Shakes peare's works, and never before noticed, by which the bard is made to say: "Sermons In stones, books in the running brooks, and good In every thing," when what he really said was undoubtedly "Sermons in nooks, stones in the running dtooks, and good hi everything.'' Brief News Items. The drv eroods house of E. S. Jaffrav & Co.. of New York, has been robbed of about $1,000 worth of goods during the past month or two, by two boys em ployed in the store in conspiracy with receivers of stolen goods. The Navv Department has received from Lieut. Commander Kells, at New Orleans, a copy of his letter denouncing Senator Kellogg, accompanied with ex planatory remarks denying that he was drunk when he wrote it, and denying generally the charges Kellogg made against him. An anneal is made from Nashville, Tenn., to the bar associations of the United States for donations to a fund for the support and education of the or phan children of the late Butler P.

How Did That Come ? rPotorahnnr TndAT-AnrjeaLl president of the Richmond, Fredencks- receiving 4,811 votes as against 2,181 for Mr. John M. Robinson. The stock of Mr. Moncure Robinson was voted tp ADVICE TO HUSBA5DS. What is Sauce for the Goose is Sauce for the Gander, From the Burlington Hawkeye. The world is full of "advice to wives," and even that eheap commodity by courtesy addressed "to married people, is mostly one-sided and intended for the ears of the weaker sex only. We ean scarcely pick up a paper without read ing the oft reiterated injunction to "al ways meet him with a smile," (whatev er may be his delinquencies) ; to be "al ways neatly dressed, (whatever work on hand) ; to "never complain to Mm," (whatever the weight of your cares), and all the rest of if, which everybody knows so well. For the sake of a more evenly balanced state of things, let us administer a little of the same dose to the other side of the house, on the old principle that "what is sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander." Husbands should always appear be fore their wives in a neat and becom ing attire. Remember that was one of your chief attractions during courtship. A man is not at all beautiful en disha bile, and how can you expect to retain a woman's love if you suddenly drop all the blandishments that won it? Husbands, be neat. Never come to breakfast with your hair looking like a "fig tree shaken by a mighty wind," or soiled collar and necktie all awry. Nev er lounge about of a late hour in the evening, in stocking feet, sans coat and vest and with sloucny suspenders. Had she chanced to see you thus in courting days it would have taken a vast amount of romance out of her, depend upon it. Suppose your circumstances in life are such that you must assist in doing the "morning chores," then steal to your room betore she has seen you and there change the working coat for the dress ing gown, polish your boots and make yourself presentable, that no suggestion of the barn-yard may accompany you to the breakfast-table. The look of fond regard that will surely greet you from behind the fragrant coffee-pot will be a sufficient reward. Never wear a clouded or angry coun tenance in the presence of your wife. No matter what the cares and annoy ances of the day have been ; before her you should be all sunshine. Thus you will make her happy and forget your own troubles. In Tier own sphere she has petty vexations to bear that would break the spirit of any man alive. Don't add the burden of yours too. If the children are noisy or peevish, quiet and amuse them with as much tact as possible, in order that you dis turb not their mother, who, in the even ing, should find that rest and tranquility that will prepare her for the duties of another day. j Above all, allow no impa tient word to arise to your lips should your wife object to spending money on such selfish gratifications as expensive and choice cigars, while she is econo mizing in many little ways. Though you may think her in the wrong, you had better be ruled by her wishes, as thus you avoid future unpleasantness. If you wish to be a true companion of your wire, don t allow yourself to degen erate into a mere drudge and money- catcher. Keep your intellect refreshed bv reading good books ; read the things she reads and repeat to her the news, both political and general, that you have gleaned in the world, outside her sphere. $ear in mina tnat many overtaxea wives are mere bundles of nerves, so to speak, and subject to a thousand and one irritations that enter not into a man's philosophy to even comprehend; therefore write it in your heart and prove it in youar daily conversation that a "soft answer turneth away wrath, but grievous words stir up anger." m i The Acme of Refined Cruelty. N. Y. Times. "f-i Ti o A ol vit otto fl-rnnrli'f A m criran reporter uaapproached and unapproach able in what is called, though not very accurately, enterprise. But from ac counts in the Berlin journals the Ger man reporter surpasses him in certain ways in this his favorite quality. They represent that reporters were sent to Leipsic immediately after the execution of Hoedel to observe the effect of the sad tidings upon his mother and step-father. This is an extreme point wnicn, nappny, we have not reached. The American reporter would, if possible, have " inter viewed" the doomed man and every body else connected with the attempted assassination. He would also have chronicled with every detail the last sentences of the beheading. But the culprit once deadf he would have pur sued his investigations no further. He certainly would not have dreamed of dasMng off 130 or 140 miles to see how therelatives of the executed man bore his death. This is a refinement of cru elty yet unattained, and it is scarcely to be hoped that we shall attain it. Such " enterprise," however, may prove con tagious here. We may before long have reporters describing the play of feature and the exact manner of Mrs. Simpson after she has learned that Simpson has eloped with another woman. "We may be told how the widow and all the kin dred of a hanged murderer bore them selves when they beheld the body. It mav become a part of Jenkins' business to hide himself and watch the counten ances of the mother and tather ot Mrs. Brown while thev discuss Brown's gross neglect and frequent abuse of their daughter. In fact, there is no end of the unpleasant ramifications to which the German fashion may give rise. If reporting is to take in all the kinlolk or a man or woman who happens to be come for the nonce an object of public interest, it will be much like the old Chinese law which condemned not only the criminal to death, but all the branch es, direct and collateral, ot his tamny. mm i w .A Novel Suit.

I have taken time to authenticate a report which I heard for the first time on the evening of the last day of the convention. At "West Point, in a public speech, during your congressional campaign and in my absence, you sought for me a term of "reproach," and from your well filled vocabulary you selected the epithet of Jew 1 Had I served you to the extent of my ability in your recent political aspira tions, and your over-burdened heart had sought relief in some exhibition of unmeasured gratitude ; had you a wealth of gifts, and selected from your abund ance your richest offering to lay at my feet, you could not have distin guished me more gratefully nor honor ed me more highly than by proclaiming me a Jew. I am proud of my lineage and my race. In your severest censure you cannot name an act of my life which dishonors either, or which would mar the character of a Christian gentleman. I feel it an honor to be one of a race which persecution cannot crush whom prejudice has in vain endeavored to subdue who, despite the powers of man and the antagonism of the com bined governments of the world, pro tected Dy the hand of Deity, have burst the temporal bonds with which pre judice would have bound them, and, after nearly nineteen centuries of per-i secution, still survive as a nation and assert their manhood and intelligence, and give proof of "the divinity that Stirs within them," by having become a great factor in the government of man kind. "Would you honor me ? Call me Jew ! "Would you place in unenviable promi nence your unchristian prejudices and narrow bigotry ? Call me Jew! "Would you offer a living example of a man into whose educated mind tolera tion cannot enter ; on whose heart the spirit of liberty and the progress of American principles has made no im pression V You can find it illustrated in yourself. Your narrow and benighted, mind, pandering to the prejudices of your auditory, has attempted to taunt me by calling me a Jew one of that peculiar people at whose altars, according to the teachings of your theological masters, God chose that His Son should worship ! Strike out the nationality of Judea, and you would look in vain for Christ and His apostles. Strike out of sacred history the teachings of the Jews, and you would be as ignorant of God and the soul's immortal mission as you are of the duties and amenities of social life. I am not angered, but while I thank you for the opportunity which you have given me to reDuke a prejudice confined to a limited number, distinguished for their bigotry and sectarian feelings, of which you are a fit exemplar, I pity you for having been cast in a mould im pervious to the manly and liberal senti ments which distinguish the nineteenth century. You are not created without a pur pose; nature exhibits her beauties by the contrast of light and shade. Humanity illustrates its brighest and noblest ex amples by placing its most perfect mod els in juxtaposition with the meanest specimens ef mankind. So that you have the consolation of knowing that your mind has been thus deformed in the wisdom of the Great Architect, that you might serve as a shadow to bring forth in bold relief the bright tint of that beautiful picture of "religious tol eration" engrafted in the constitution of the United States by the wisdom of our fathers." R. J. Moses. Columbus, Ga., August 29, 1878. The Treatmeift to which Circus Children are Subjected. An insight of circus life is given by a Philadelphia lawsuit brought by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children. Three years ago Mrs Lucy Coles was left a widow with three children whom she made heroic efforts to support, but soon found herself in the depths of poverty. One of the chil dren was a pretty girl of 7. A friend suggested that she be taught to be a circus performer. A trainer of youth ful acrobats and riders was made her legal guardidn until she was 18. In re turn for her services she was to be fed and clothed and to have eleven quarters schooling during her apprenticeship. The trainer took the child and put her through rigorous training. The lessons were cruelly inculcated by the ringmas ter's riding-whip. She was taught to cap and ride bareback, to stand on one foot and hold the other out at a sign board angle with one hand, to pirouette, to lump through the paper-covered hoops, to squat with her legs at right angles with the body, and various other feats that are only acquired by long, hard practice. Her companions were four other little ones. She wept at first and made many blunders, but the fear of the lash soon forced her into an acquirement of the lessons. Then she was t;iken to a dancing master, who taught her jig steps and fancy poses. She was placed in the care of a woman who traveled with O'Brien's Circus, and with the troupe she made a tour through the country. The woman who had her in charge is said to have trav ersed the continent without paying fare for her, hiding her beneath her skirts by day. Lately she performed in Phila delphia, and her mother had her eyes opened to the real dangers to which she was subjected in her equestrian work. A Romance at a California Wedding. Miss "Warlake rejected one lover and married another. This was in Juanita, Cal., of which place she was regarded as the belle. The wedding brought togeth er all the fashionable folks ojt the place,in cluding Henry Barron, therejected suit er, who joined the rest in seemingly heartfelt congratulations of the bride. It was afterward remembered, however, that he acted like a man in a daze con duct at the time attributed to free drink- in cr of the beverage that formed a part of the refreshments. Just before the as semblage was about to disperse, Barron approached the bride, bearing two glass es of wine. He handed her one and drank the other himself, saying significantly, "Let us drink together once more, for the last time on earth." She was rather saddened by his words, but supposed that thev referred to the necessary end of their intercourse, and drank the wine. In half an hour both were dead. Barron had put poison in the wine.
