USOAPI4 r't1NXal.A•', Toronto, $an. 7.—What perhaps may prove to be nlnrder is reported from the fourth Concession of Markham, two and n halt mites frail). Unionville, a station of the Grand Trunk, 20 miles east from Toronto. About 9 o'clock last night G'eorgo Ernest, aged 23, a farm laborer iu the employnieat of a Termer- named docking, took a double- barrelled gun and went to the boners of Mary l'hebs, a married woman, whose Husband has left her. When Ernest approached she was, stiveeping ou the 'Verandah. Ernest,` without any pre- liminary warning, said, "!wary, I am going to shoot yon," took aim and fired. The charge of slugs and buckshot en- tered the woman's side and thigh, Mrs. Prehs;acreamed,etaggered and fell. A man in the !solids, nerned Wilson, rushed out and tried to carry the wo- unded woman into the house. While he was doing this Ernest fired the re- maining barrel without,set. Ile then went tu,a,neighbor`a stable, saddled a horse, and.fled. He first went past Toronto to Weston, but returned 'to this city this afternoon, and declared the shooting was accilentel ; that he aimed the guu iu fun, and that it ac- cidentally went off. He consulted a lawyer as to what he should do it the promisee. and in the meantime County Constable Jones received a telegram to arrest the man, and ancaeeded in cap - taring -him while he was in the act of consulting his Iawyer. Tho authori- ties from Unionville are here to take him back to staud his trial. The wo- man is reported to bo dying, "THAT 'ERE TENNYSON." ( I'm kinder lookin' around for a book of poetry to give to my daughter on Christmas,' explained an oldish-. looking man the other day as a clerk iu a bookstore Dame forward to wait on him. Yes, sir. neve you any choice of poets.' Waal, I s'pose they are all 3f the • same piece,' replied the old man as he scanned the shelves. 'I don't know much about 'ern, but the gal she seems to think a heap of that 'ere chap named Tennymoon. Tennyson, you mean.' Waal I guess so, I ain't no band to remember names. D , you know any thing about this 'ere Teeny sou?' ' Why, he's one of the leasing poets.' Married man?' ' Yes.' 'Move around in putty good` society, does he? ever her he was not exactly straight?' Why, Mr. Tennyeon is supdosed to be a gentleman,' said the astonished clerk, 'though of course, 1 don't know about his private life.' Does he use any slang word in his verses?' • Of course not.' Anything about girls elopin' away front home with pirates and robbers?' Not a word,' The reason I'm a little partickler,' said the old man, 'is because my gal is rather on the romance. She's just dying to slope oft with sorne pirate, or be lugged oil` by some Iujun•killer, and .if that 'ere Tennysou is on the sloop I don '1 want his verses.' ' Oh, yon can be sure flint his poems are all right. They contaiu nothing but the purest sentiment.' Nether thing is, one of the gars in our neighborhood sent off after some one's poems, and;thet 'ore;pamplilet come nigh workin a heap of evil. There eras a sono iu it about the boy with n glass eye, and another about flii•tin ith a feller on the corner, and 1 can't- toll an'ttwill you what. 'Twarleu't a week afore cur Sarah begun to say she'd to 'collar ti bean,' and aslrin her mother not to ', ive her away,' aod all arch slang as tslat, I keep her chnrniu` butter front six in the merniu'till ten at night, and 3. guess it reformed her,bul I don't want to set her gnin' agin.' 'I nsinre yon tllat'l'ennyson's poems tyre alt right.' said the clerk. I'm goin' up to tho market n Lust now, and after dinner I'll call and 1 see tits boa. if there's a single Drool ed word in ilI 1 won't have it, for bein't gain' to .lave Sarahaddle' dow t'rom her chamber winder at midnigli to meetit brigand, acid if she ever tet] pia agin that I'm a kicker I'll bock its oars, even if she is going on 28l' WORLD OVER, The Hessian Government has spa $425,000 on the new court theatre Darmstadt, and a very handsome, co modious etruatttre is the result. Th former theatre was blirut in 1871. In the district of'VV'nitlai, in Rues wolves are making great ravages th year, and it is feared that the losses the peasants will surpase those of 187 The bill of slaughter for this year aloe in the above district includes 270 horse 854 colts, 1,658 sheep, 207 cows, 74 oaleets, and 295 goats and pigs, The Dutch Minister of the Coloni has received from the commauder•i chief at Atchin, in Northern Surnatr a report stating that the power of r sistauce of the natives may be °onside ,7d at an end, and that the authority the Dutch is re-establiehad in tb country, though the war is not co pietely terminated. Of the sit hundred Russian exile transported to the Island of Soghalie and who were on chipboard fully tw mouths, only three suffered by sea sick nese, acoordiug to the report of th captain to his Government, It won! be of interest to travellers to aeoertai what means were used by the oaptai to brine. about such a wonderful result Mr. Ruskiu hal long beef! retire averse to give the 'portrait painters ' chance. There are not many goo likeneesesof him extant. Oue, indeed is in the poseeesiou of Dr. Aoland, o Oxford, which was painted some sever and twenty years ago by a promisin young man by the name of Millais, o whom John Raskin once thought an predicted great • things. There is more recent portrait of him by Rich mond. Now he has consented to sit t flerkomer, A. R. A. The portrai. is to be sketched aubsequsntty by .th same hand, mud as 1Ir. Herkomsr is tnanter of that branch of art he may b expected to prod'1oe something particu- larly fine. Mr. Boehm, A. R. A., ha also been commissioned to execute bust of Mr. Ruskin. HOW BOYS MAY IN LIFE. It may be that yon are debarred fro! entering upon that business for which you believe yourself to be beat ndapled In that case, make the best chalets i your power. Apply your self' faithful] and earuostly to whatever yon may uu d"Drinks. Patient application sour times leads to great results. You emphasize the fact of your bein a poor boy, but this affords ni groun d of dieeouregemert. The Amerioen Pre silent, Andrew Johnson, did to leairn to read at d write until he wan twenty one. So numerous are simile cases that it almost seems as if poverty, inste•d of being a hindrance, were a positive help, ;,.Rich boys are often spoiled, and their energies+ sapped awl undermir:e•1 by luxurone habits ; the too free use of motley, and the lack of that discipline which comes from indig- 1 enee. As an element of success, great stress must be laid upon incorruptible integ rity, which of late years is too rarely found. A business man once said to a writer, "1 can find plenty of young men to work for me. What I want is an honest clerk, whom I eau implicitly trust." Scarcely a (Ray pasees in which some dr f �leation is not brought to light. Wide epread misery often resulted from the lax principles of some young man placed in a, position of trust. Let our young man resolve that he will live on bread and water rather than appropri- ate a penny that is not his own. A boy re a man who estahlls'•!'e a reputation for strict honesty will not remain long out of employment. Don't give up all your time to busi- ness. Reserve a part, if only an hour daily, for reading and mental improve- ment. Some hien prominent in bulli^ nese have found time for a wide and varied courso of reading, which made them agreeable and instructive compan- ions, Once at a dinner party an emin- ent clergyman made an incorrect his- torical alln�ion, and was at once set aright by a quiet merchant who sat be- side flim.
