A IvIGIITIlOUS JCDGltEXT. Judge Smith of Xew Orleans, has recently de livered air -extra judicial, but seemingly righteous decision. . James Cazentre, who has a wife and several children, courted Maggie Kern's younger sister, assuming the name of Joe Wagner, and represent ing himself as a single man. "When the older sister heard that hewas a married man, and was going about among Lis friends boasting of his conquest, she lav iu wait for him, threw lime or flour in" his fucej and then 'knocked hitn dowu. The gay deceiver applied for an order of arrest, but the judge discharged the assailaat with these words: "You have done just what you should do. As for this man, I have seen much of Luiuau meanness, but I nev er iu uiy life have seen o much meanness iu one of God's make. There is a man who" assumes a name and represents hi m sents himself j as. a single man, to make love to an unprotected young lady, and w hen her sister discovers that he is a fraud she punishes him herself, because she has no one else to do it for her. lie Las the impudence to call iu a court of justice and ask for redress. I I am sorry that the law does not permit? me to punish hiia as he ought to be. If you had beat him more severely ho would have got just what he deserved." .lie who confers a favor should at once forget it if he is not to show a sordid, un generous spirit. To remind a man of a kindness done to him, and to talk of it, is little different from reproach. Individuality is everywhere to be spared and respected as-the root of everything good Indiscretion, rashness, falsehood, levity aud malic produce each other. . ' -- J XJX II I rilII 1" - v -X FALLING FROM A BALLOON. Glade Springs, in this conntv, was on Monday thronged by Virginia farmers from all parts of the surrounding country, to witness the balloon ascension. Accord- "nA)t0 anno"ncementj the traveling show of Prof. II. Hoffman made its appearance and prepared for exhibition. Their lare lion furnace was put to work, and the bal loon hoisted over it by means of two poles on; either side forty feet Ligh. The bab oon was inflated by means of wood and ke:osene oil, with a small quantity of gas oline added. Mr. Hainniy the aeronant, eatdf "a want mere gas this time." Two puits more of oil were put in, and when exhausted, the damper to the furnace was shut down; then he jumped into his posi tion, and like an arrow the great air ship shot upward, carrying its human freight dangling at its end. It had asceuded some 300 feet, and while the actor was performing on a horizontal bar, hanging by ibis feet with his head dowj waviug a handkerchief to the nervous audience be low, the patched and dilapidated canvass split from bottom to top with a report that was heard miles away. Xo sooner had the gas escaped than the balloon collapsed and came shooting down as swiftly as -it had darted up. The aeronaut saw his situation, and quick as lightning regained his i handhold, and began a lnanoeuvre to dodge -a telegraph w ire and post toward Avlnch he was falling. This he succeed ed in doing, striking the ground with ter rible force, which bounced him up to be caught and pressed by the balloon. All of this was t he work of a moment. The crowd was literally paralvzed, women sickening and fainting, and" men unable, in their horror, to move. The companions of the unfortunate man stood riveted to the ground, and not until some citizens under took to move the canvass did they stir. The man was found to be alive and con scious, but dreadfully bruised and man gled. He was calm and cool, and describ ed his feelings as, descending, he saw and felt death staring him in the face. He wa taken to the hotel, where both Mr. ami Mrs. Thompson did all in their power to llielieve his sutferings. At II J o'clock P. M. he paid the penalty of death for his recklessness. His name is Frank Hainur, from Warren, Ohio. Abingdon (Ya.) Standard.' STRANGE EXCOUXTER WITH A DEEli. A young man in Texas recently met with a novel and exciting adventnrc with a deer. He tells the story in a letter to a friend as follows: This "morning I was sauntering along the banks of your roman tic: stream, and, iu the absence of a gun, was enjoying a little hunt with my pistol and a hatchet, which I had flung iu my belt. Turning around the stream I saw a short distance in advance two deers standing in the edge of the stream. . I quietly crept up aud taking careful aim fired, wounding the largest of the two somewUere in the leg. At the crack of my old pistol the deer made a spring for deep water, and I, in the flush of excite ment (my first case of genuine "buck fe ver") made a leap into the stream in pur suit of my prize. Strange as it may seem, 1 reached the plunging animal, grasped hold x)f the tail, and hung there for dear life. The dear, more ! frightened thau hurl, now commenced a frantic voyage of discovery, trying to discover what style of rearing and plunging was best calculated to free itself from the firm grasp of my muscular hand. It swam into deep water and into suullow water, across the stream, up stream and down the Btreatn, but to no -r i . purpose. x could sometimes touch bottom and sometimes couldn't, but I held on all the; same. The deer tried to kick me off, but being m the water, the force of its kicking did not avail much. After towing me all over the stream, and down about a quarter of a mile, the deer seemed to resolve on a new style of tactics. It every little while made a fran tic elibrt to turn about and fight me with its front feet and horns, and I had to do some tall swimming around the' circle to prevent the accomplishment of its design. After it had tried this repeatedly, I struck an idea that as eoon as we struck bot tom again, and where I thought I could 2"et a footiu?. to court this turnincr around . ' o l-Uiotion of the deer and kill the animal with my little hatchet. As we went sail ing along through a deep channel I suc ceeded iu getting my hatchet out of my belt, and we soon struck a bar, where we both found good footing. The deer had no sooner touched bottom than it made a turn on me again, and I, letting up on the tail, allowed it to turn and tome for me, and a it did so I delivered aSvell poised blow that laid it out. You can well imagine what a blow it must have been wLea I had drank about three fourths of a quart of fresh milk before starting on the expedition. After getting my breath a little, I dragged my fine prize ashore, and went back to change my clothes and get a team to take it borne. I think that Li ust lv claim the clianinion' belt until some fellow actually catches a deer in his hat "Lovely Obscurity" for Woiiex. The proposition to admit women to a voice in the election of vestrymen eeems to have met with no favor in the Illinois Episcopal Convention lately, the subject having been laid on the table indefinitely. The fair sex in the church in that State is thereby rele gated to what Mr. Canon Knowles called "that lovely obscurity which the true soul alone can appreciate and to the congenial occupation of "rearing babies for the glory of God." If the ladies ever have a vote and Canon Knowles ever becomes a can didate for Bishop, ,he'll be sorry he made that speech. A EOW AT THE LYCEOI.

Sud denly, in the midst of one of the scenes. wuue a Jirs. u. (.urs. Brongham) was on the stae, looking over her part and mak ing clajrm to something 'more in her line,' a Quakerish dressed gentleman arose in V ..fill. . 0 . . i no mmuie oi tne parquet, or 'pit as it was then called, and. bidding mi a ,tf..,. umbrella, addressed tho 6tage aud the house somewhat as follows: 'That w oman looks, for al! tho world, like Clementina! ner voice is very like the form the same.' Aud then with emphasis, 'It U my wife!' At the same time he made his way toward the footlights, cry-incr loudlv: '( Ioiiio riff that stage, thou miserable woman.' Of course uproar ensued. I, William was in the gallery, tho iersonification of a fire laddie, me 'Jkiose' of tho day, red-shirted, soap-locked and noisv. It was mv n.-irt to give the old gentleman to understand w ith the 'young 'ooman' on the Ktae, I'd 'lam his bald head into a iellv.and I proceeded then and there to go down and do it. Meanwhile all sorts of encourag ing; and discouraging cries wero to be heard among the audience: 'Go it, Broad brim!' 'Sit down!' 'Police!' 'Shame!' 'Put him out,' and so on. The actors ou the stage were of course unable to proceed on account of the uproar, while joor Mrs. Ii , the cause of the commoticu, was apparently in a stato- of affright. The supposed irate husband and the red-shirt-ed defender reached the footlights about the same time, where supposable police ineu collared and dragged them on the 6tage. Then the usual semicircle was formed and tho epilogue spoken. It was only at this juncture that the audience re cognized Mr. Brougham as the indignant Quaker, Mrs. li.l as Lid wife, the police men as memliers of the company, the ac cessories in the pit as 'supers,' and Mose as me Billy. The piece Lad a eplcudid run for those days, because every one who had been 'sold' brought somebody else to be fsold' again.

A Lesson ox Discipline. Daredevil Skobelelf, who ! blames nobody, but ac cepts defeat as the "will of God," is the most popular of the Russian heroes. His force was on the extreme left of Schakotf ski's division in the first disastrous attack npon Plevna. When Lis battalion of in fantry was nnder the tiro, of the twelve guns defending that portion of the Turk ish line, the soldiers shouted "charge!" and began rushing forward. SkobelefT ordered a halt; lines were formed with the precision of a dress parade, and the com mand was given, "Carry arms !" "Present arms!" When tho liuo was at a "Pre sent," the ehells began to fall among them. Skoheleff then asked thein if they did not think "they presented a ridiculous spec tacle in, that position under fire." They replied that they did. Tbeu he assured them that Le would keep them there until the nexfdav uuless thev Dromised to keen order in ranks and await the command of their oflicers, mstead of yelling and charg ing on their own account. The men as sured him that they saw the force of his remarks. They were then led forward and behaved splendidly during the whole action.

TLc ar rangements were unlike anything of tLe kind in this coaatry, aud as I have uerer seen or Leard any w rilten or verbal de scription of them, lcrhaps it will not I uninteresting to know that on the north mJo of the i-in are or Place La Bourne (Kx change ipnare), iu the row uf fine, M-to-rey buildings, iLcre is a large Louc, over wLic'u is the cigti "Bureau des Journaax." Here I Lave often entered atil found to the left of a large room a number of dcks, at each one of w Lu-L is ktatt-l a tuao.

You hand in your ad vertisement to iLis or tLat repreentaUve, who counts tho Lumber of words at.d U lis yoa wLat you Lavo to pay. TLc amount is always paid before tLc person leaves the room. Just iu tho rear tf this long row of det-ks and men thcro is a platform some two feet abovo the liojr, end ou this is a long desk, and at certain distances from each other is parted a table of each journal and there is a man who represents each journal. This is tLe literary department; here you hand iu your commuuicution with your name, and so it is published. Pvcn the editorials Lave the names of the au thors. I am speaking of a i-erwd, pre vious to the present republic.! There are very few words exchanged. As you en ter every man looks up to fcee uhich jour nal yoa wish to Lave business with.
