When a simple soldier in the Hoyal Body Guard of Madrid, he awoke one morning, the 2Slh of December, 1833, to find him self the chosen husband of her Majesty, Maria Christina Ferdinanda, of the Two Sicilies, Queen Kegent of Spain, who, just twt) months before, had become the widow of Ferdinand VII. The story goes that he was on duty at the palace when the voting widow passed and turned in her tracks to regard, his handsome face and manly form. She was charming in her widow's weeds ; he returned her ga.e with modest yet ar dent longing. In that moment, it is said, the young soldier's sovereign had felt for him that strange, invincible, penetrating sensation which tlie contemporaries of Louis XV. were accustomed to call "the thunder bolt of love." Such a love, or such a ca price, can overcome all obstacles and the idiMin.des in this case were of no suu.d im portance. It took Maria-Christina nine years to get the man to whom she had thus iriven her left hand recognized as her royal consort, and it was not until the 13th of Oc tober, 1844 that she could get the marriage officially recognized and accepted by the Church. Her daughter, Queen Isabella 11., ad then been twelve months the actual sovereign of Spam. ISo better proot is need ed tt show that the caprice of a lonely Winter had turned into a firm and abiding love, and it was generally remarked that - . 1 1 Queen Christina had become a belter and a nobler woman since her marriage with tin simple soldier of the Guards. At this ume ... a f 1 1 : i the soldier ot lortune louini nis loriune made. On the celebration of his legitimate m!iiriarc he was created Duke of Itianzares - . Chevalier of tlie "Golden IMeeee, aim d as a Prince and grandee ot .... 1 1 . 1 Spam. The day belore, no was simpiy Fernando Munoz. In this life story we have quite romance enough, without trying to exaggerate the details, as many writers have tfone, by trying to make out that Fernando Munoz was a peasant born, ami the son ot a muleteer. Such was not the case. The body-guard in Spain, as in France under the ancient monarchy, was recruited from among gentlemen of ancient families, of distinguished manners, and of superior education and courtly training. The hero in this case came of a very old and honorable family. The legend which represents him as the son of a mule-driver, who did not know how to read or write, is ti romantic exaggeration, which has no foundation in fact. J. S.

SMITH vv rOKBbS. 1 An Enterprisin.? Coroner. Butcher, when we knew him, was Coro ner up m Williamsport. Business that winter was dreadful dull. No body died suddenly or was drowned, or murdered, ami Butcher not only had nothing to do, J (IT 1. but Ire made no fees, and was poor as ait Whitman's poet r v. Suddenly a mania tor committing suicide by immsou seemeu i break out among the people. Mrs. brown fed herself with strvchnine: both the Smith girls stuffed themselves with arsenic ; Aleck Jones took a dose of laudanum; Johnson's colored rirl swallowed some bug poison, and Mrs. Murphy's little son ate four boxes of phosphorous matches. These tragic events occurred at intervals of a few days, and in each case noooner were the facts discovered than Dr. lltimm was at once on hand with his stomach pump. He empted Mrs. Brown all of a sudden ; he pumped out the Smith girls; he tore the laudanum out of Jones; he separated the poison from the colored girl, and he nearly turned .Mrs. Murphy s boy wrong side out. All ot tneni recovered. The coroner viewed tnese pro ceedings with regret. He went to bunim and suggested that he would give 100 it the doctor would close out his pump, ami $50 dollars more if he would go out. of town for three or four weeks. I he coroner said 1 he did not wish to seem importunate or 00 trusive, but was tired of having doctors meddle with his business. Then Dr. Butnni affirmed that he would not only not sell and not leave town, but when the next poison- 11 111 . . - lnnr case occurriMt lie wouui nuy a sivam . . . -i engine, attach it to the machine, ami pump the patient throughout the unending ages of all eternity if he wanted to. That night Butcher bribed the doctor s boy to bring 1.5m tb iiiinm for a few minutes. Then he rubbed some nitro glycerin around the end of the piston and sent it back. The next day Mary Jane M'Guire took oxalic acid. Tlie doctor came: he inserted the appa ratus down her throat and plunged the pis ton down. A snap, a shriek, a loud explo imi and Marv Jane, oh ! where was she? Kortv-seven nieces of her were found, and thev nicked no twelve fragments of the doctor, so the coroner had a chance for fifty- nine inquests, the fees of which enabled him to buv a barrel of flour, get his wagon tix-A -nwl Av, bis wife a oink silk dress.

How- to Make a Mustard Plaster How many people are there who, reajly know how to make a mustard phister? Not one in a hundred, at the most, perhaps, ami yet mustard plasters are used in every family, and physicians prescribe their ap plication, never telling any hotly how to, make them, for the simple reason that thpt doctors themselves do not know, a, a rulp. The ordinary way is to mix the miistardt with water, tempering it with a little flour, but such a plaster as that makes it simply aborcdnable. IJefore it has half dojio itHfc. work it begins t blister the patient, tuy leaves him finally with a painful, flayed spot, after having produced far less effect in a beneficial "way than was. intended. Now, a mustard plaster should never maka a blister at all. If a blister is wanted, thero. are other plasters far better than, inustartl, for the purpose. When you make a mus tard plaster, then, use no water whatever, but. mix the mustard with the while, of an egg, and the result will be a plaster that wirpMiaw" perfectly, but will not produce a blister, even upon the skin of an infant, no matter how long it is allowed to remain," upon the part. For this we have tho word ot an old and eminent physician, as well aa. our own experience. Hearth ami Home, . It Fat Folks and Thin Folks.
