As a man named Loney was passing the burying ground in a. rowboat about noon to-day he noticed that the grave had been disturbed. He rowed to the shore and found the lid of the Coffin on the ground beside the grave and the body gone. He immedi- ately gave the alarm. Word reached here about 2 o’clock, and Mr. John Purcell, brother of deceased, and your Correspondent drove down to the Point and found that the ghouis had re- moved all the earth from. the grave, tore the top otf the round box and removed the 11d from the coffin, which they threw to one side, and dragged the body from the grave to the rlver, where their boat ‘ was evidently anchored. __ A STOLE HIS BODY FOR RANSOM.

The pretty little servant was standing at the gate of her master’s villa in one of the coast towns in Scotland, and while she stood was not admiring the beauties of , nature so much as she was wondering I when it would please Providence to give l her a house of her own. She had a lover, \ but he was very, very backward, and she l was beginning to despair of ever hearing that question put to her which she longed to answer in the affirmative. Even as she stood and pondered her keen eye discern- ed the form of her lover walking along the ‘ road which skirted the beautiful bay. “ Well, Willie." she said, as the bashfull youth drew up and paused at the gate ; “what wind blew you here?" “Oh, I was just takin' a bit dauner," explained Willie; “an’ I was hauf thinkin’ ye micht be able to come wi’ meâ€"just a bit walk to to the ‘ point an’ back” “No, I canna gang wi’ ye > to the point the nicht, Willie," said the ‘ ' - - 1 L n her a house of Her own. but he was very, very was beginning to desp: - - A u- J “an’ I was hauf thinkm’ ye mlcht be ame to come wi’ meâ€"just a bit walk to to the point an’ back” “No, I canna gang wi’ ve to the point the nicht, Willie," said the girl, “for its no’ my nicht oot; but, ” “ What was ye gaun to say Jeanie?” ask- ed the youth. as she paused. “ But I was thinkin’ Willie” she continued, feeling now or never, “I was thinkin yeâ€"ye micht come to the point wi’ me some ‘nicht soon 1” In addressing a meeting at Dalbeattie the other night Mr. James Biggar of Chapleton said:â€"â€"“I met Henry George at the hotel after his lecture (at Stranraer), and I asked him whether, when he spoke of confiscating theland, he meant to allow anything for improvements.

The boy died from acute peritonitis. resulting from inflammation caused by his swallow ing an orange pit. Young Leek swallowed the pit while eating an orange at the resi- dence of his aunt a week ago. He ate the . orange in the morning and towards even- ing: complained of severe pains in his left . side. He continued in great agony until Thursday. when an operation was per- formed and the pit was found on the right side of the groin at the point where the large and small intestines meet. It had a sprout fully an inch long. The boy grew better after the operation, and it was thought that he would recover, when per- itonitis set in, resulting in his death. A minister, now in Glasgow, when labouring under the shadow of the Campsie Fells, had a somewhat unique experience. Having made one day a casual call on a widowed member of his flock, he was about to leave after a kindly conversation when she saidâ€"" Nay, nay; ye maun pray. Cannot have a minister leaving Without prayer 2" The worthy pastor complied ; but what was his astonishment to find on opening his eyes that his widowed friend had gone 1 As he waited. wondering, she a returned and exclaimedâ€"“ Ah! are ye ldune? The brass band was joost passin’ and I thocht I would like to see it, and 1 that I wad be back afore ye were finished!” ; To what practical account: the pastor I turned this new treatment of his minister- f ial functions is not said. The following anecdote of Jefferson is given by a friend who claims for him that he has been a comedian from the start. When a three-year-old child he was to play the infant in “ Pizarro,” in which his aunt, Mrs. Chapman, was playing the part of Cora. In this character, referring to the child, she says to her husband: Alonzo, “Sweet child, he will speak soon!” As she said this on the occasion of the infant Jefferson‘s first appearence, he, not at all ‘awed by the peculiarity of his situation, walked towards the footlights, and address- ing the leader of the ochestra, whom he knew, said, “ Green why7 don’t you play the fiddle?” This “break” in a scene, which is one of the most sentimental upon the stage, created a roar of laughter. If we cultivate firmness of principle and righteousness of character they will of themselves render us equal to all the changes of life which can possibly occur, and save us from being electrified or over- powered by any of them. The good ship- builder knows not where or when the storm may arise and the wind and waves beat against his vessel, but he remembers that they may come, and he strives to build that they may be steady and firm, pre- pared for every contingency and ready for whatever changes life may have in store for us. New Prayer-Book Revision, Several alterations will now have to be made in the marriage service. if it be permissible for the bride to omit, her promise to “ obey,” as is reported to have been the case last week, why should any undertaking “ to love." “ to honor,” “ to cherish,” and so forth remain in the text 1 With all this left out, a marriage, which, of course, will no longer be an ecclesias- tical rite. will hardly be a. very civil cere- mony. In course of time all the promises will be made either explicitly or implicitly conditional, the only question being what is the least possible obligation that can be ‘ incurred by both contracting parties at the smallest possible expenseâ€"Punch.
