On her wedding dav an Indiana girl wrote something, sealed ft fh an envelope and gave it to an Intimate friend. "If I am alive six months from now."* she said, "give this back to me unopened.

John Bright,. with his peace principles, should retain a place in the warlike cabinet of Great Britain during Its unnecessary war with Egypt. At last ho has resigned. "For Torty years," said Bright. "I have told mv countrymen that morals were the true basis of politics.

When a work girl breaks a needle or whalebone costirig less than half a cent, he lines her Ave cents; for breaking a two-cent bobbin, ten cents; for a drop of oil on the floor or work; and various sums for tardi­ ness and other misdemeanors, so that the cost of production must be consid­ erably lessened by this system. The souls of such men occupy a space In comparison with their bodies about as large as a grain of sand in a world of pl|nets. Were they rulers in Heaven, they would consign to eternal perdi­ tion anyone guilty of dropping a note in a celestial symphony. A WORD TO TNK FATTMHRFT. It will l»e nntioed that the Chicago dallies publish full and flattering re­ ports of crop prospers, particularly west of the Mississippi river, claiming rhnt the wheat In many places yield thirty bnshe)« or more to the acre, and that prospccts for other cereals are equally good. The tr«ie inwardness of this whole thing will he apparent when it is noticed that the statements come from the Rimvell ring, who have lands and bonds to sell, and It Is a barefaced scheme to sell their lands and bull their stocks. There are few tracts of land in Kansas where the soil is strong enough to produce thirty bushels of wheat *o the acre, and the largest yield they ever had or claimed previously was thirteen. In a year lik" this, when the corn prospect Is so poor and the main dependence is upon wheat and oats, such statements do great Injury to Illinois fannms by causing them to sell rln'jr products too »*henply. Our advice is for you to pay no attention to them, and sell only at remunerative prices, which, with patient waiting will surely come.--Anrora Herald.

The body of the young man named Cicero Dixon, son of a guard at the prison, who fell Jnto the Arkansas Riven below the Grand Cation-and was drowned about a week ago, was found to-day in the river opposite this city. Last night a Mexican named Jose Sancho dreamed that he saw the body in a certain place in the river. He started out to find it, and, on his way, was accosted by the City Marshal, who asked him if he was not going to work. The Mexican told the dream he had, and said he was going to find the bod}'. The Marshal tried to laugh him out of it. but^he Mexican went hts way. and. in a short time, returned as pale as a ghost, and said he had found the body in the place he had seen it in his sleep.
