"How 1 Won my Wife. a doctor's stort." Jessie ITnle was tbe merriest, happiest, moit frovokiug of Eves Uiut over existed at least thought bo though perhaps 1 was not an impartial judgO, as I muot cotil'i'ss I was deeply io love ; aod ia fuct I don't believe I could remember of a time when I was not io love with her. It certainly wM not when a youngster of twelve when I took her under my speciul enre, feeling prouder of BlJ curly headed chargo than I could now of a im'.je of gold; nor when a tall awkward boy of sixteen, I first ventured to uak for her company homo from church ; or still later, when after four yoars' absence, 1 returned to my native town, and set up as a surgeon in the house where Dr. Moore's name had been since my earliest recollection. Oak Place was a remarkable place, or else the good people felt a little afraid of trusting their lives in the bunds of such a young scapegrace as they had known me to be, for my horse and gig found mora employment in carrying Jessie Hale to ride than in any more profitable business; and it is certain more of my time was spent io Mr Utile's pleasant parlor than iu either study or practice of medicine. Some of the neighbors silily remarked that I must hare;) very sick putient to occasion such frequent visits ; and I was certain that if I hud no patients (here, all the patieuce I ever hud wus required there at times, fur of all the tautulizing little wi etches that ever fascinated and provoked a fellow until he could not have told whether he was iu the body or out of it Jessie llule was tbe worst. And there was 1 William Tremaine standiog six feet in my stockings, big enough to have known better, that is sure, led about by that little elf, coming and goinjf at every heck aud call, as if I were a great simpleton, as in truth 1 must bave been, for after playing "yours most devotedly" for six months, I wag no nearer wiouing than at first.Open-hearted and candid she was on every other subject; but just let me speak of lore or marriage, aod I might as well talk to a stone wall for all the sense 1 could get from her1 No matter how cautiously I might approach the subject, the was alwavs ready witli some oil hand auswer, as far from what I wanted as the equator from the polos, until 1 was most in despair, but more eager after every failure. , "All is fair in love or war," or at least I thought so, and resolved to try the result of stutegy on iny willful little lady love. ' Une Hue inoriiniff, as we were abont start ing for a rido da horseback, as I was assisting Miss Jessie into the saddlp, her horse commenced rearing and kicking at an alarming rate : or course the jugged bars of iron I had cautiously inserted beneath the saddle had notbiog to do with it Ky the time she wag fairly seated he had become perfectly unmanageable, throwing her violently from the sad dle ; of course I caught her before she reached the ground. No sooner was she in safety than I staggered back against the fence, my right arm banging helplessly by my side. It took nicely, for Jessie was beside me ia a moment. . 'O, Will,' she said pitcously, 'that terrible horse bus broken yonr arm, and what willyoo do T Poor Will I poor Will I' ( How like a rascal I felt at the sight of her distress: but I was not going to give up then : so I answered with a terrible groan 'It is nothing, dear Jessie : I would suffer a thousand times more to feel that I bad saved your precious life.' 'But oh, I am so sorry I what can be done for you t' she said in inch touching; accents thot I half ropented, . . , . , 'The end justifies the means, I thought. The enl accomplished certainly did. My au swer was to a tow mini voice, as u 1 was just dying ;. . i . Only tell me that yoo love me, Jessie, darling ; it will sooth my pain more than anything else ID the world.' And then, like a great simpleton that I was, I pat that arm right round her, and never discovered my mutuke until she sprang sud denly away from mfl. 'wonltln t a little branny anil water do as well, Mr. Tremaine ?' she said archly. There don't seem to be any bouog broken, the injury was internal, I should think.' . .. Wouldu 1 1 bave sold myself for a sixpence? But there was no help for it ; so I had to own to the trick, and went borne wishing I had broken my arm or neck, I didn't caro much which. ; After (hat for a while, I was rather by of a love subject, for I did not funcy hearing of my lust attempt : but 'out of tbe abundance of tke heart the mouth sjieaketh,' and my heart was so full "of love for Jessie Bale, that I could not force my tongne to keep alienee very lona. , Bo one morning after loans'- ing id my study until I was tired of everything, myself in particular, I went over the way, rwsolved that the mutter' should bo de cided before 1. returned. Jessie wag sitting by the purlur window, busily sewing and bumming some merry tune to herself, wheu I entered. She was looking prettier than ever, I thought ; aud I found it terrible hard work to talk on common place subjects' When my life was to full or the one so imnortitnt to me. At last I broke iu upon some of her care less uoosenre with Why in the world, Jessie, don't yon say whether yon love mo' or no f What is the iige of keeninsj a Mlow in suswnne forever t I Wlieve you do in fact I know you do.' ' Here was I again makitg a simpleton of myself, I might have knowu ho never would bave told me alter that, but I did not under. Stand womankind as well then us I bave since. 'Ob, yon do know then, do you t" sho said coollyi with a merry twinkle in her eye, 'Then of course there Id uo need of toy telling yoli.' 'AO, 1 did not mcun it, Jessie,' I paid penl tently. 'l!ut do you love me T Will you answer me yes or no I 'Yes or uo,' she answered demurely. '0h Jessie Hale,' I exclaimed impatiently. 'Ton will drive me crnsy.' A terrible misfortune, surely,' she said with a laugh, throwing down her work and step ping through the low window upon the lawn, Now Will, I will tell you what I will do if yon will promise never to plague me again about this.' .. . .. 'I will promise anything,, if you will ouly give me an honest answer,' I said eagerly. . 'Well then, if you catch me before I roach the elm tree, 1 will give you a candid answer upon my honor. thumped my head agalusl the window sash, and away I went over the green sward with ten times more eagerness than I ever displayed io playiug catch in my boyhood duyB. A very dignified proceeding, truly, for a staid surgeon. All the gossips in that place would have held up their bauds in pious horror bud thoy seen mt then ; but I did not care il the whole world saw me, so intont was I on catching that flying gypsy, and cutch her I did before sbe was bait way to tbe old elm. Tfow for the answer,' I suid eagerly, 'Oh, but can't you wait until I get my breatu,' drawing it in qmcK, spasmodic jerks like some dilapidated old steam engine. 'Let me see, what was it I promised to tell you ?' 'Whether you love mft.or not, you provoking little wretch 1' 1 said, fairly out of pa. tience. 'Now look hero, Mr. Will, if you dou't stop calling me names, I won't tell you at all, though perhaps that is love talk Is it f Will, I promised, you say. ... , 'Of courso you did, so don't bo all day about it.' r 'If you hurry me I can't speak at all, for it will tuke me some time to think over the ob jects of my love to see whether you are among them. Let me sec beginning to count her nngera there s (Jhloe, aud Priuce though be hurt your arm, you know is two and old lirinillo is tnreo, and w utcli is lour, and let me see there is Mr. William Tremaine, is five.' I dou't think I stopped to thank her for thut answer, and if my return to the parlor was not as rapid as my exit, it was certainly mora dignified. I hud taken my hat and was out of Lh'3 gate befoit Jcjsie bad reached the house, ' I went home ia no enviable stato of micd, resolving that I near her aguiu. liut by the time I had reached my study, my auger cooled considerably, and I sut down in my arm chair and began to thiuk of any plan, Just as I had doue a hundred times before, how I could outwit this provoking little elf. Have her I would, but how T that was the question. 'A letter for you, sir,' cried out a boy at tho door. : ' I took tho lettor and tore it open. I was ton much occupied with my thoughts to care what its coutents were, but the first few lines fixed my attention, it was from an uncle of mine, a surgeon iu a flourishing city, muking a very advantageous offer if I would come and take his pluce. This was just the situation I had been wautiug for years, and I hailed it with delight now. 'Dut Jessie, thought could I leave ber V A moment's reflection showed me what was needed, for if sho really cared for me, my absence would make ber willing to acknowledge it. It did not take me long to make my arrangements, and before night they were all completed, and tbe next moruing I started for tho station, culling at Mrs. little's on tho way, to bid Jessie good bye. I could gee the little witch did not believe one word of the story I told her. 'I hope. Mr. Will, yon won't brook your arm on the train ; it would make it so bad for you,' sbe said with a queer smile, as I concluded.'And you not there to cure it,' I retorted. 'But, seriously, Jessie, I ain iu earnest now. It is probable I shall not see you again for years, for if I like the place I shall remain there.' . . Still she believed it so mo trick, for ber eyes suid plainly 'You cun't aheat me again.' And she said good bye as coolly as if it were only for a day. I went down the walk fueling much as I think Adam must liavo felt when he left Paradise, ulthough his Eve went with him aud I left miue behind. I was pleased with the place, and was not long in accepting my uncle's propos-iL I wrote to this effect to a lawyer, desiring hint to dispose of my property at Oak Place. I knew Jessie would hear of it, and it would give her to understand that I bad no intention of returning, determined that if I did not succeed this time, I would give her up forever, though my heart gave a quick throb of puin at tbe thought. It wus just at twilight of a pleasant September day when I reached Oak Place.' j)i-rect to Mr. Halo's I took my way, saying over to myself as I went, 'Now or never P Straight up tbe gravel walk and across the broad luwu I went, and iu tho dusky parlor unannounced. Dy the light I suw Jessie sitting on a sofa, hor head resting on a pillow. She was aloneoud bad not beard my step. Was she aloue T A quick sob answered me. That augurrf well for my success. In a moment I was kneeling beside, ber and raised her bowed head. 'Jossie, dour Jesse,' I said tenderly, scarcely knowing how she would ruceive it With a quick start and glad cry of surprise, ber bend was pillowed on my bosom. Oh, I am so glad to seo you, Will, yon told mo you would not return ; and I have been so lonoly without you.'' 'And I bavo been lonely, too, Jessie during,' I said. 'My home auywhere would always be lonely without you. Will you not go and share It with mer The answer wag very low, but I know it wag in the affirmative. . : , 'Will y oa become my wife next week J' : I was determined to make sure work now. , There wwsome hesitation, a few objectioug raied, but Anally I gained the same answer to that. . . The d I hurried to the drawing-room to gee tha old folks. There was considerable pleasure expressed at my unexpected ariival, and great surprise when my errand was made known, and a few tears and regrets from the mother at parting with Jessie, and hearty congratulations from the father, concluded by the -remark,- 'that just as likely as not- the would change ber mind while cbauging her dress.' I think I accomplished more in that hnl hoar than I ever did In twi,-e that length off tiuio before or giuce, for at its expiration I wad supremely happy. : And the lesnlt was that in a wen', I got tbe prettiest and best w.fe iu all New Knuland, ni;d What is belter alill, I think so now, though eh did gay, ten m'mntea, nfler tho ceremony I 'J ortver told yon I loved you, Will.' V And aha never bai to this duy.. Presentation. Camp JOrn 0. V. V. I., kkab Louis- ) viu.r, Kt., Juno 20'tb, 18G5. y Mb. Eblfoli ! Tho pooplo are woll aware the war is over, aud we would like them to learn a little of our proceedings wbilo remaining around Louisville, Some of our brave comrades now home on furlough would b9 glad to hoar of the procecedinjs during their ubfeuco,! huvo no doubt, although I cinuot give as full a detail as tucy migiit wisu to read. I shall ouly look to the interests of Company 0. . A few days since, their Captain, Joshua E. Clark, was presented with a magnificent gword aud belt, They "took him by surprise," The presentation Bpoecb. was delivered by Will II. Whitoman, which was quito olo nuent, and very appropriate to tho occa-1 sion. . Tho Captain returned bis thuuks ttndor some litt'e embarrassment. He is worthy of the presentation, and has been with his com pany at all times, and under all circumstances. He deserves all be bos received from them.

Tallolms, great oaks, and silvery baked Beeches grew closely, yet not so but that the sunbeams Bhot down between their brunches to the earth, and kissed into growth the seeds bidden in the brown mould. The ground, too, was broken and uneven. Here it rose into mossy hillocks, crowned with holly nud hawthorn, and garlanded with the purplish leaves and lilao blossoms of the grouud-ivy. There it sank into dells yellow with primroses, pink with wild flowers, and porfnnied with the tiny woodroof. Again it opened into glades green with short, thick tuif, and set with the broad leaves and white bells of tho valley lily, Happy animal lifov brightened the pleasaut spot. The nut- seeking squirrel leaped aim cnauervu, me timid rabbit bid himself ia the waving lern, the dIjtoou oooed, and tho nightingale sang. There also came the fairies to dunce oa the dewy swiwd. .. ; . . Unon the border of Ibis wood dwelt a little child, who was called Honeybel, on accouut of ber loving ways. ' There was nothing that she liked so much as to hunt for acorns, and gather byaciulhs and curious orchisos. One day she lell asleep under a group of eldors, which grew on the edgo of a glancing rill. Their spreudiug bloom arched her with its suow. aud their scent, in which lies a fairy spell, deepened her slumber. The sno went down. ; The, twilight followed. Then Mho stars came out, silently, one by one. All wag still, when a troop of fuiries went laughing by, and stumblod against the dreamer with a torch liko that of a rose leaf. " They screamed with fear, but at the moment, the moon came from behind a cloud, aed showed them tho closed eyes, the smiling lips, and the locked fingers still grasping u treasure of crimson buda. The Queeu sighed, and exclaimed "Why is she not of ns t Let us take her to tbe Fortunate Islands, which know neither cold nor tempests." . i : ' ' ' . "We will do so," answered hor husband. "Wo will do so," echoed hor little court There was but one way in which they accomplished this purpose, and that wag by means of a charmed liquid, which they kept carefully io their home amidst the sea. It was called the water of Oblivion, and a single drop washed tho post wholly from memory. If, however, the name of God were breathed in the faintest accents over tho sparkling cup, its power for evil vanished forever. While there, one of the fairy bund flew io quest of the magic draught, the rest sought to make Iloneybel forget ber evening prayer. - They transported her to the gay palaces filled with light and music Lovely forms danced around her, and she listened to pretty tales, or learned fairy games, or played with the flashing gems whicu were showered upon ber in dazzling numbers Bo tbe midnight came, the moment of fairy influence, and the messenger rsturnvd from her rapid flight, ot-fered her the diamond goblot which contained her fate. Weary, thirsty, and bewildered with tbe pleasures of tbe bonr. she lifted it to drink, then suddenly replaced it, she clasped her hands, and whispered, '! thank then, Pather." With thote words, a sorrowful wail went with a sobbing sound through the glittering ball; and jeweled pillar, aud shining dome, and merry dancers passed hr sight, and bo-bold sho wag safe beneath the elders in the gleam of the watchiug stars.

How It Feels to be Thrown oirtlie track. ; The Editor of the Mansfield Herald was on tho train that was throwu off the track on the Cleveland and Columbus road a fow days iuce, uud thus doscribeg tho sensation of such an affair; , , i , . . We wero aboard the cars at the limo, together with some other gentlemeu from this plnco, delegates to tho Stuto Convention. Iu all our ruilroad traveling, and we huve travel ed a good many miles, it was never our fortune to meet witb an accideut until now, and and the sensation cxpciiuuced was a decidedly new one. At e wore sleepiiig at the time, and were awakened by the cars passing ovor tbe ties. Instantly realizing the trouble, we braced ounelf in the seat awaiting the result. For an instaut the excitement was terrible, Tho screums of terror by the ludies, t he cries of the men, wus a scene never to be forgo'en. Somn tried to leave their seats, but others more collected, calmly awaited the result The excitomeut was nt its greater height when the cars commenced overturn. The thought of where wo would "bring up" was the first in our mind. We involuntarily bid good by to all things earthly, shut our eyes, and awnited the result of the "bringing up." Tho thought rup-idly passed through our mind that if were on a high embankment or an a bridge tho chances of life were very few; but if we wero on a level, there would not be much danger. All theso things passed in an instant, and it was a great relief when tho curs with a loud "tug," aunounced that they' had come to auchor.oud we found tho danger over, and that we were sound of life and limb. The passengers, however, lay around in a miscellaneous manner, bonnets and bund boxes were badly smashed, but thero was no . serious damage. One of tho cars caught firo from tho lumps, but fortunately the flumes were" extinguished bofore much injury was done. After getting everybody aboard that portion of the train which did not meet with any accideut, tho train proceeded to Columbus. We might here add that although the sensation of being thrown overboard on a train of cars is a now one, we -bavo no desie to repeat it Not any more for us, thauk you. . . A Wisr Child that Knew his own Father. On the comer of Fifth avenue and Seventh street, while the Highland Regiment was passing, an extraordinary crowd, a little fellow of the tender ago of four summon rushed up to ope of its monitors, shouting, '-Hooray, daddy I hoorayl Give mo five cents!" The veteran, though he had never seen the urchin before, picked him up in his arms and kissed him, when his own wife, whom ho had not seen or heard from for over four years, pressed up to him and seined him by the hand. When the greeting natural to the occasion were over, judge of his astonishment to learn that he was indeed the father or the little boy whom be bcld in his arms, who bad been boru iu bis absence, and who now, by a strange and un accountable instinct, know his parent, though beholding him for the fust time. These cir cumstances created a lively iutorest among some ludies aud gentleman who were made acquainted them; the former took tho mother undor their protoction, aud gave the little one some peppermint candy, while the gentlemen look "pupa down to JJelmonicos ana there did the proper thiiig.T-.Vew York Tribune, July S. . . , , . Why Children Die. The mortality among children, ia our cities especially, is frightful, aud should eugago at once tbe attention of every parent in the lund . Dr. Hall, of the Journal of Health, gives us the following plain and stirring words upon this thome; , Tbe reason why children dio is because they aro not tukea care of. From the duy of their birth they are stuffed with food, choked with physic, sloshed with water, suffocated in hot rooms, steamed in bed-clothes. . So much for iu-doors. . When permitted to breuthe a breath of air, ouce a woek ia summer, and ouce or twice during the coldest months, only tho nose is permitted to peer into daylight. A little luter, they aro scut out with no clothes at all, as to the parts of the body which most need protectioui-bare legs, bare arms, bare necks, girted middles, with an inverted umbrella to collect tbe air and chill the other parts of tho body. A stout strong man goes onton a cold day with gloves and overcoat, woolen stockings and thick, double-soulcd boots, with cork between and rubbers over.. The samo duy, a child of throe years old, an infant iu flesh and blood, and bone and constitution,) goes out with soles as thiu as paper, cotton socks, neck bare an exposure which would disable the nurse, kill the mother in a fortnight, make the father an invalid for - weeks. And why? To harden them to a mode of dress which they are never expected to practice to accustom them to exposure which, a dozen years luter, would be considered downright foolery. To rear children thus for tbe slaughter pcu, and thon lay it to the Lord, is too bad. ' Hall I King Corn Several years ago a Gorman chemist started a little drug store in the npper part of this city. His means were narrow, and it was ouly by tho exercise of his national characteristic thrift that his family was enabled to keep tho wolf from the door, , The German was a man of culttire, and of a social turn. His shop soon became a gather-, ing pluce for Some of the most intelligeut men in the neighborhood, who were wont to con verso freely on business and other topics in his hearing. . . 1 Oue evening it chauced that two porsons engaged in distilling were discussing somo of the details of their processes, They united in lamenting tbe difficulty they experienced In getting rid of the saccharine matter in making whisky from maize. Could this bo cheaply accomplished, they expected a great addition to their gains. , , , . ' . The Teutonic mind is not always remarkable for prompt apprehension. But the intellect that sheds a joke, may be very quick at taking ahinti Within six months the German, by dint of sovere cxperirr ont, had so fnr perfected big processes i to produce from Indian corn a syrup equal to any 'in our market for all purposes, domestic uud manufacturing. During the last year the patent right for tbe process has been sold for a very largo sum to large sugar bouses iu this city, who have erected exteusive machinery lor tbe manulac. tiire, and subsold rights for several Western States at a price that has fully repaid their total outlay. .... .' The German, raised from indigence to affluence thus suddenly,: died a fow months afo, but the consequences of his discovery live in other hands and may prove of immense importance to the whole country. .V.
