A 'dry goods: Clerk was syiowiug' a lady sonic parasols, recently., This clerk leas a good command of language, and knows'. how tit expatiate oil the good qualities`. and show the. hest point of goods, As to, picked up a, parasol from the lot on the counter and open - ea, it, he struck an attitude of ad - best .light would be had, he said Now there.: Isn't it lovely. Look at that silk., Particularlyobserve the quality,the finish, the general effect: Peel of it. Pass your hand over it. - No foolishness about that parasol, . is there 1' he said as bo handed it over 'to the laity, '`ain't it a' fe,iuty:'?'

A Scene to he Remembered. It was a bridal scene. ' The wine -cup passed from lip to lip. One gentleman, W o. th a ht himself cured of is drink- og h inhabits, refused. ' ' Can't you• pledge friendship in t social glass?' pleaded the bridegrodni:. ' ' I dare not, I cannot.'- 'Then the beautiful bride, with bewitch- ing smile and eyes that were brighter than the•ewela on her fingers, held_out the poison'to hips, saying, ' Surely'you will not iefese me 4' • The color mount- ed to his cheek. He •faltered. He yielded to ilio Circe' of the banquet.— The first taste fired Iris lust and • he ceased not' till 11h`t' was a sot again. . A. few years after, one :quiet .stammer's evening, a wretched' outcast reeled •in- to the open door. of pleasant home, when a ladywas just., drinking a glass of wine, allowing her. little one to sip. The vagabond 'sprang :forward' with: a maniac's frenzy, raised his arm, •dash- ed the cup to the floor, encl. shouted. —' Murder hinlif' you willf but not with that 1 Look at me. ypal made me what -I am: I was .respected and honored.

The openings have been made at points 600 4..,apart, and sufficient ore is in sight to make . the millions of dollars of our daddies. , ,The 'owners have gone far enougb,to know Ott there is a full acre of the .ore in the one solid body', -t}nd• acne ,conception ,Tinny be formed of the amazing richness of this discoveiy by a brief calculation'of its 'dimensions. A cubic foot weighs 170 pounds, and, as the ore lies, 12 'cubic' feet make a ton. There are .43,560 — "square feet in an acre,and the acre of ore, being three feet hi thicknessmakes kes 130,680 cubic feet, which with, t e[ve cubc to the ton, makes 10,000 ton, worth $1150 per ton, oe the enormous sum in aggregate of $2,500,000. The Crescent is another 'nine worked like a cool bed, the one lying horizontally in .the large room that has been opened; the roof being held up byheavy_timber with very stout caps and tugging poles.

This force is maintained without the use of animal. food, except by the miners who digthe coal and provide the fuel; and the force maintained in the Muscles is to the force generated by the product labor as. about 1 to 1,000. This Steam -power. is .equal to the working. force of 25,000,- 000 horses, and one. horse consumes three times as much feed as one. man' The steam -power therefore is equivalent to the saving of feed for 75,000,000 human beings. Again, three power. looms, attended by one man, produce daily seventy-eight pieces of cotton 'fa- bric, against font pieces produced by one hand -loom, worked by one Man, in the year 1800. This, of course, is but the merest outline of what is'acttOm plishecd by the tike of stearal power' end. • Iabor-saving machinery, • Ladled,' Dont Read Thirst The following paragraph is not in- tended for the ladies., We Call particu- lar attention to this' .fact• in order to avoid any nllsunderstanding that might any: O accident- allyarise if of• them should oldent- ally peritso'it.

My impression then is that the 'present showery moist.. term will continue until close upon the rnid- dle,of June, with, upon the whole cool weather, but occasionally a couple ei• more days of sultry beat. The latter half of June will be intensely warm, With but little rain. July' will enter: With intense heat, whieh will continue up to the neighborhood of the 15th.

The condition of the striking miners at Belleville, Ill., is deplorable. fifteen hundred are on the verge of starvation. In Dutch• Hollow and at Raib's Station hundreds of men, women and children walk:the streets begging for toed. The Miners ere desperate. and if a compro- mise is not effected serious trouble is anticipated,' Never in modern tinges has there been such a period of famine as in the last Ave years.
