The Von Stella -eau fueuily tie one of the oldest and. nicest illustrioue of Saxeny, Their fine estate, desceuded from generation to generation, is situated on the bordera of Dresdext, the Capital of the pro- vince. Years ago the tioble Count von Steinman'A' mau of traclitioual iron will, had an oaly son. The son waa sent to Berlin to be educated. While thews, and about the close of Ms eol- legiate year, he fell a victini to the Owens de -very pretty but poor shopkeeper's daugh- ter. They were married secretly and Ife re - Paired, feerful of the result, to bit Saxon home te ask forgiveness, The Count von _Steinman was enraged. He hadfoced upon a noble wife for his on, It was the same old story. The son received a curse and was disinherited. He returned to Berlin, emigrated with his lovely but lowly wife to America, and located in Milwaukee, Wis. There he prospered and died twelve or fourteen years ago worth $300,000. His will made his noble mother, for whom he always felt the tenderest regard, the execut- rix of his estate, which was bequeathed to his only daughter, then a beautiful little dark-haired, black-eyed girl of 11, The re. suit a the widow's correspondence with the Countess von Steinman upon the death of her sou was that the daughter left Milwaukee to make her home with her grandmother in the castle on the banks of the Elbe. The old Count had died. She was royally received and entertained befittine her rank, The American girl soon tired of the conventional and ceremonious life of the nobility and be- fore three years passed. by fled to the sea- coast one night and took passage for Amer- ica. Mother and daughter were united in Milwaukee. Her description of their meet- ing was affecting in the extreme. Enough had been retained from the father's fortune to support them comfortably. The girl soon became surrounded with visitors. Her mother insisted on her marrying a German. She loved a young Milwaukee painter, and the heiress of vast Saxon estates, the lovely daughter of the humble widow, became Mrs. August Bartsh: Bartsh's merits seems to have existed chiefly in his good looks and pure blood. The mother died, the remainder of the small fortune was exhausted in idle- ness, and Bartsh lived afterwards on his wife's laber over the washtub for their daily bread. Once she virote to the Countess, her grandmother, who now lives alone in the castle on the .Elbe, for aid. Twenty-five dollars was returned, but since then the aged Countess has remained silent. She was greatly enraged at her grandchild's flight. Christina followed her indigent husband to Detroit. Here he has worked some at his trade. The bloom has faded from her cheeks and the light has left her eye. They have lately been forced to sell their furni- ture to supply the necessaries of life and to move into a veritable garret at No. 517 Mc- Dougall avenue, one of the poorest sections of the city. There, in response to a call, a city physician found them to -day, sitting with a board across their laps for a teble eating bread and cheese. Another heir of the house of Von Steinman will be born. Efforts will be made to effect a econciliation be- tween Mrs. Bartsh and the aged Countess, who lost trace of them when they left Mil- waukee, Roach Remembered Him. An intimate friend of John Roach the great ship -builder, told this of him at the time of his assignment: "At 22 he had & wife THE RESCUE OP BM It Wati Too Horrible a Thou0SA They were out sleigh•riding together and Twelve Yeara ago, Dr, Emile an Austrian physichiu, who had entered the Turkish army, a* eargeon, was tent from Cairo to joie Garden Pasha, then Governor of the 4ptreoreptieusg, go trietesoleugtieta, gnIinateedi; and. an ecomplished lingeiet, bent en adding /African dialects to his knowledge a many of the lenguages of Europe and some of Asia, Gordoe foetid Emin Effeodi not wily an eiceelleet SurgeoloGeneral, but a valuable diploraate, to whom he intrueted several important missions. At Ueyoro, for example, whither lie had gone without escort, Dr. Ernie secured the frieuciship of King Karabega ; and it was this king, we may add, theigeye supplies to Emin in his recent etraite, as related by the brave Russian explorer De. junker, who made his way through Wadelai to Zanzibar, and thus brought the news that has aroused the world to sympathy for Emin, as formerly for leivinigston and for Gordon, and that has now sent HenryM, Stanley to the rescue. Gordon,lie,v. been promoted to be Governor-General. of all Soudan, made Emin in 187 SeGovernor of the Equatorial Provinces which after Gordon's departure had lapsed into disorder and discontent. Thider the vigorouti administration of Entin, who was reused to the rank of Bey, peace was re-es- tablished through his vast command, the destroyed stetions rebuilt, and the slave- I traders eecroaohing from the surrounding regions expelled; and whereas in 1878 he had found a deficit in these provinces of oparly $200,000 a year, by 1881 he had a surplus of $40,000 in the Treasury. This change was not ancomplished by ex- I eessive taxes, but by economy and executive skill. These African provinces, inhabited by , several millions,of people varying in customs, I dialects, and traits—some gentle and tract- able, and others fierce cannibals—are di- vided into 'districts, in each of which is a military station, 'usually surrounded by groups of native villages. Broad, straight ) streets are laid out at the station, earth- I works. built around it, and guards mounted on the parapet. Military disciplme is kept up in all its details and besides his few Egyptian soldiers Edin has for each station largeO force of natives. These, at least be- fore is late disasters, were well uniformed, and often armed with Remington rifles. Others go almost naked, and are provided with double.barrelled guns. These troops, fortunately for Emin in his present troubles, require only a little grain for food, and do nob grumble if their pay is in arrears. They are courageous, obedient, and trustworthy. Dragomans in each large village keep order and insure the payment of the taxes of grain, cattle, and ivory, which are resold to the traders to sopport the government. • Such are the provinces and the people that have occupied the life of Emin Bey, or rather Emin Pasha, since to this rank he has lately been raised. He is a tall, spare man, erect, with a resolute face, partly covered by a carefully trimmed black beard I and mustache. He has secured the devotion of the natives by unremitting efforts for their good. A part of the day is habitually devoted by him to hospital work. He has Millt good roads for the people, has had them instructed in making cloth, shoes, and wagons, and in training oxen to the yoke, and according to his friend, Dr. Fellein, who formed his acquaintance in Africa, and has since mado known many interesting de- tails of his life, it was Emile who introduced there the cultivation of cotton, coffee, rice, indigo, and wheat. Knowing that his people rely on him, and that to abandon his post is to let barbarism, war, and the slave -trade sweep over and engulf again the districts I he has made peaceful and prosperous, he has ' refused hitherto, as Gordon at Khartoom refused, that personal escape which has pro- bably always been possible to him, as it was to his companion Dr. Junkes. In the spring of 1882 Emin Bey went down the Nile to Khartoorn, to consult in regard to the Mahdi, who had begun his and two children. At this time he was a portentous career of conquest the previous slight slip of a fellow and did not weigh over year. Gerdon had already thrown up his 120 pounds. He became and was confined commend, disgusted with the lack of effi- to his bed until all of his moder tte savings cient support by the'government.

One night, when there wa.s scarcely a penny in the house, the physician came to see him, and after examining him said: John Roach, you should know the truth. You must die. Your lungs are hopelessly affected. I tell you this so that if you can make any provision for your wife and children you will yet have time.' Roach was ip despair. He saw absolutely no hope for him in the future. He did not fear death, but the thought of leaving his wife and children to a destitute, poverty- stricken life pierced him to the heart. He prayed all night that he might live. In the night a vision came to him. It seemed as if he were looking directly into heaven, and from that abode of happiness came a prom- ise him that he would live. The next day a fellow workman came to see him. The workman was going West. "He came to see John Roach, he thought, for the last time. He bent over him and kissed him good -by before he went away. After his departure John Roach found that he had left under his pillow his week's wages in the very envelope given at the works. John Roach did not die. Vi7ith the , modest help _of his friend he got a start. ' Thirty-three years after he was walking down Broadway when he saw the back of a plainly dressed man whose figure seemed familiar to him. He was moved with some spirit or desire to speak to this man. He stopped him and said 'I do not kuow your name, but I ought to know it. What ie it!' The ma,n gave it. It was the name of the workingman who befriended him on his dying bed. Said Roach : 'Do you know me?' 'No. I am John Roach,' was his reply, the ship -builder." Yes, I have heard of you in the newspapers, but you I must excuse me I have in hand a very pressing matter df busmen." Wait a mo- ment,' said Mr. Roach. Did you ever know another John Roach?' ' Yes, but he died some thirty odd years ago." No, he didn't I am that Itame John Roach,' was the ship -builder's reply. "The man was very much astonished, but he again made a move to pass on, as he was ?reseed for time. But Mr. Roach made t his friend had a mall shop and instructed to return to his provinces and de- fend himself the best he could. Son after he Was shut off from communication with the outer world for three years. It is now known, from letters sent by him throu h missionaries in Ugenda to Zanzibar, that e was gradually forced to relinpish outlying stations, but iu the main had held out vig- orously with his handful of Egyptians and his negro forces against the Soudan rebels and the cohorts of the slave -dealers, Yield- ing ground only on compulsion, he at the last accounts was at Wadelai, near Albert Lake. There he had established friendlyre- lations with Karabega, King of Unyoro ; but when a recent report came that M'wan- ga, the fierce and powerful Ring of Uganda, had invaded Unyoro, and killed 10,000 of its people, apprehension for Emin revived. It will now be seen how many interests combine in the plan to rescue this brave and I accomplished man. There is first, human sympathy. To that is added a scientific motive, for Dr. Emin has been devoting his leisure for years to most valuable studies of the country and people. There is the goes - tion of the destruction of the slave -trade, one purpose for which, under Sir Samuel ' Baker and General Gordon, Egypt annexed their vast domains. Finally, there is the saving of civilization and commerce of this fertile and promising region, although this ' consideration has practically barred the goverinnerit aid which England desired to lend to the Stanley relief expedition, lest sbe should be accused of seeking only to plant herself in these equatorial provinces under cover of relieving Einin Pasha. Pri- vate enterprise and Egyptian government aid, however, have been adequate. On February 3, 1887, Stanley, whci was generally recognised as best fitted for the task, started from Cairo to Zanzibar oh the relief expedition. Four roads lay before him—one straight through the hostile Ugan- da, country; feeond through the Masia country ; a third, more southerly, by the shores of Lake Alexandra; a fourth by the Congo. Whatever the choice, the hearty good wishes of millions will attend the ex- pedition of rescue. The British Square. ina.st,03 and tell what his business was.

A Stem -Winder, Stiggins was passing a watchmaker's establishment, and looking in the window he noticed a very pretty girl at the counter, "Ha I" he solilocjuised, "I'll go in and take a look at her under some pretext or other." He entered, and was waited on by the young lady's father. "What can I do for you ?" "1 want to get a key for my watch," he staminered, feasting his eyes on the young lady. " Let me see your watch," said the watch- maker. As if in a dream, he took out his watch. The watchmaker extuninecl it, and said with surprise: "Why your watch is a stem-winder." He don't remember how he got out, but he does remember that the young lady snorted audibly. He Wanted an 'orse.

BY AN 1:4-1tEillllL, dlPees ospy firet f tinwlieinh le tn t eer be ieyd t ap°411 tft701414 and the first days of April, 1882.

Complimented freta divisiou headquarters, but I received this detail supposiug I might be wanted Da 0 clerk or something of that sort. I reported direet to Gen, Johnston, who received me kindly and mentioned, the names of officers who had reported favorably on my work as a =nit, He asked inc then itt o very se4°al11er4testman:rjlw aert41te1GaT'aiine la!pyl would not detail me or put me under any obligations to go, because of the daegers ot the serviee, amd. if I would. volunteer my re- ward would be prompt and liberal, I do not suppose any roan in the Confect - elute filerVice Would heve hesitated at tenth time, 1 caned myservices, was given very i aleer and coneise nstructions, and within two hours was out of camp. I entered the Federal line as a farmer, having a mule and cart and several bushels of onions and pota- toes to sell. Prentiss' diviiiion lay on both sides of the Corinth highgate, and before all my atuff was disposed of 1 had his strength within 100 men, and had discovered that he bad not even a rifle -pit an his front. Ati I had no trouble to enter the lines I went back up the country iota in the afternoon, steyed over night with a farmer'and next morning confronted the Federal picket with another load of provisions. During this day I covered most of McClernand's front, which was found as devoid of breastworks or ether defence as if war was unknown. I was at that time only Hi years old, and as I dressed as a gawk and used the manners and language of one, the soldiers had a great deal of fun at my expense. The inen had an abundance of provisions, and there were a dozen or more farmers hauling in stuff, and after the first day my sales were very dull. This didn't annoy me so much as the fact that some of the officers began to petition me very sherply and hints W,ere thrown out that loyalty required me to enroll my name in the Federal service. It was this latter suggestion that helped me into Sherman's lines. I replied to an officer in Prentiss' division—he was a captain in the Tenth Wisconsin Infantry—that I had an uncle under Sherman and that if I could find him I would enlist in the some company. As soon as the officer had withdrawn a corporal came up and wanted to know if I'd like to see Sherman. "G ive me a dozen onions and I'll write you 0pass which will take you right to his tent' I promptly closed the bargain and he withdrew to his tent for a few minutes and then returned with a military pass signed, if I remember correctly, by Gen, Peabody. It read "Pass the bearer of this to Gen. Sherman on important business." Between the camp -guards and the Federal out -posts were two or three farm houses, and at one of these I left the mule and cart and thus entered Sherman's camps. Some camps had sentinels out, and others had not. Sometimes no pass was required, and at others the forged document was unquestion- ed. As I moved only along the front I was several times directed how and where to reach the General's headquarters, but that was the last place I wanted to go. I put in two full days in his camps, and two more were spent in the divisions already named. Then, having discovered all that could be hoped for, I was ready to go out I returned to the farm -house for my uncle and cart, got them without question, although there was a military guard there, and when I drove through the picket the lieutenant in charge said he hoped I would call again. I did, but it was with Johns - ton's whole army. Outside of the questions put to me by the officers mentioned I met with no hindrance or anxiety, and I could have remained in the camps longer than I did had there been occasion for it. When I reported to General Johnston that the entire front of the Federals was unprotect- ed, and that I,hacl met with no patrols out- side of the pickets, he would not credit me until I had described the lay of the ground and given hint the names of various brigades and regiments. I had in my note -book the names of all the regiments but thresi in the three divisions, and every battery on the ground. His First Canoe Ride. Several years ago 1 and two others were hunting in Muskoka. One morning after a light fall of snow we got the track of a deer; and in crossing a narrow neck of land between two lakes, we came to an old In- dian birch bark canoe. S. was just out from England, end an Indian canoe was far mire interesting than hunting deer. Mac said, "say S., come along and leis have a ride in her 1" " No thank you," S. replied. "1 prefer something more substantial than that cockle shell before I leave terra firma, its a little too cold for a ducking." "Well, give es 0 hand to get her into the water," he replied. So we launched her. Mac got in and sat down on his marrow bones and S. with a long pole pushed him out into the lake clear of the bushes and fallen timber. Mac dipped his paddle deep and low into the water, when it became quite evident that he was a spring chicken nethe useof it, (the paddle, not the water). We watched and encooreged him until he became quite dex- terous in the management of his craft. His , spirits aroseavithin him and the la,ke arose' within the boat S. hinted that she scented to have considerably more ballast, and from appearances Mac began to think she had too much ballast, At any rate, he tinned and made for shore as fast as the lake within would let him, We ALM the boat settling down like an old. lady at a tea.splaeli. Mac's feet, in a wild endeavor to get into water, had crawled through the bottom of the cameo, and the lake, with a desire for vengeance, had crawled through the bole into the boat. We ran along a hemlock tree that had fallen ems, into the lake and callecl to hint to steer to. run werds us.
