I am not superstitious--not very ; but
how could a real child be out in the prai
rie in such anight, at such an hour ? It
rnirht be more than human.
The bit of a coward that hides itself in
most rnen showed itself to me then, and
I was half inclined to run away, but once
more I heaid that cry, and said I :
"If any man's child is hereabouts, An
thony Hunt is not the man to let it die,"
I searched again. At last I bethought
me of a hollow under the hill, and groped
that way. Sore enough, I found a , little
dripping thing that moaned and sobbed
as I took it in my arms. I called my
horse, and the, beast came to me, and I
mounted, and tucked the little - soaked
thing under my coat as well as I could,
promising to take it to mammy. It seem
ed tired to death, and pretty soon cried
itself to sleep against my bosom. '
It had slept there overman hour when I
saw my.windo ws. There were lights in

them for my sake ; ; but. when I got into

Death of an Opium Eater.
The Coroner held an imput yrteiiay
over the bodv of Mrs. Ksther Wallace,
w ife of Robert C
Wul'lace, the comedian, !
who died from the e fleets of iijuor and
a lrequeut u?e of opium. A lew years
ago hc was a happy wife and mother,
with friends and relative ar uml her, and
moving in good societv. She was then a
hand&ome, intelligent woman. Her hus
band was an actor, receiving a fair salary,
and they lived genteelly. In time he
became addicted to drink, aud her hus
band, on returning J . from
intox1caVio"n;,' p'r;c by VS?019. to
induce her to abandon 4f evil practice,
and being thrown out of a situation, he
left thn eitv. and his wifT; was compelled
to take care of herself and her child, a
smart, intelligent gin, nq. . .
L. ... 1 f j-
old The despATe supjiort if she had
made acifficient strength of mind to
posfiflb the wine-cup, but when her htis-
ti!ind left her she became reekle.i and
drank for the purpose of drowning her
rrow. The life she led impaired her
health, and to ease tLe pangs of bodily
pain, as well as to oothe her sorrow, she
usei opium daily, increasing the quanti
ty with the increase of her cravincr lor the
drug. In a small room, on an obscure
street 6he lived a miserable life, losing :vU
self-respect and energy. The neighbors
helped her in her distress, hut she made
no effort to help' herelf. Several times
a day she would send her little girl out
to purchase whisky and opium. For the
last two weeks she was unable to leave
her bed. Her neighbors induced Dr
Pettigrew to call and see her, and two
ladies visited her and rendered her some
assistance. The room in which she was
lying was in a shockingly filthy condi
tion, and emitted such a iekening smell
that complaints were made to the police.
Two policemen visited her, and some of
the neighbors cleaned up the room. On
Monday night she was found dead in her
ped. bhe has a brother and sister living
in the city, both of whom are respectable
but not wealthy. The little girl stated
that her father was cipected here soon,
and that he had an engagement to play
at DeBar's next fall. Her brother took
charge of the body, and will have it de
cently interred. St Louis Democrat,

The Christian Gentleman
A modern writer thus describes the
Christian gentleman :
M He is above a mean thing. Ho can
not stoop to a mean fraud, lie invades
do secret in the keeping of another. He
betrays no secrets confided to his own
keeping. He never struts in borrowed
plumage. He never takes selfish advant
age of our mistakes. He uses no ignoble
weapons in controversy, lie never stabs
in the dark. He is ashamed of innuen
does. He is not one thine to a man's
face and another behind his pack. If by
accident he comes in possession of his
neighbor's counsels, he passes upon them
an act of instant oblivion. He bears
sealed packages without tampering with
the wax. Papers not meant for his eye,
whether they flutter at bis window or he
open before him in unguarded exposure;
i
.Yo :i
are acnd to him He invade no pma

chant's clerk in the j beginning of his suc

Bordentown, N. J.t August 10. X. X.
The Earth oca Mother. Year by
year, if we lead true lives, we grow more
and more into recognition of a something
in Nature which, because we do not
know Nature's owniarne for it, we call
a soul. Summer byj summer, we grow
more tender in our touch of the flowers,
more reverent in listening to their voices,
more impressed with wonder, whether
there be not in them a heart closely al
lied to our own. We find that no man
show why a plant may not feel pain in
being uprooted, or thst the moss may not
know that we are in gnef, when we bury
our faces in its bosom to hide our tears.
We find that all things minister to us,
when we leave our hoases and seek help
in the air ; and thus, finally, a little be
fore the Earth is ready to fold us for the
