A Sad Story. , . Truth is' some times stranger'tliaa fic tion. A. caso happened in this city a few days ago, which forcibly illustrated 'the truth of the above maxim. Not very many moons ago a young lad j horn, reared 'and educated in the first; circle's Or Phila delphia - society, visited this cityv Her visit was a -triumph. She cauie, t.Le saw, etc. .. ; . Her face was lovely, she was graceful as" the fawn, commanding iu appearance, with the niost winning and elegant manners- accoinplialied in all things recoguizod as necessary to complete the education of a lady. She could sing with that accuracy and excellence which silenced the voice of criticism, and many have been thrilled to tbeir very souls by her touch on the piano and harp. -Above all she was intelligent beyond the ordiaary ran of women and not a few hearts in the higher walks of life in this city, at the very moment, acknowl edged with a sharp twinge of pain the in fluence she exerted in our midst a few short years ago. She returned to her home after a career as brilliant as belle ever made, and' before another reason she succumbed to the wiles eft he seducer; She disappeared suddenly from the haunts of her friends, and fashion knew its unfor tunate child no more forever Noneju,ew whither she had gone, and noue sought to know save those to whom she was dearer than life itself. ' ' . We will hot follow her through her fallen career sufSce it to say, she trod royally the halls of tins deuii-monde in N. York, Philadelphia, Uostou and 3altiaioie. A few weeks ago a random thot from one of her former friends hit its mark. She realized in a moment the depth to which she had fallen, the lisping she had been taught in childhood poured back like a torrent upun her memory, and she had re course to a priest in the holy Catholic Chuich for guidance and advice. She disposed of all her clothes, tinsel and jewelry, purchased an entire outfit suitable to a convent, and came to Ualti-mt-re with the intention of devoting the remnant of a misspent life to the God who gave it. She reached the' President-street Depot, it was raining hard ; "sle was drenched to the skin ; she succeeded after some delay in getting a carriage ; drove to a house of disrepute sho formerly frequen ted ; waa received with tenderness and cared for with the utmost solicitude by its unfortunate occupants. She announced to tl:c-m her intentions, but their care slackened not. For four weary weeks one room in a den of infamy w:is made a temple of God. She -rayed fervaiitly that her hopes might be realized, but the Ruler of all things earthly, decreed otherwise. and a few even- c ,,.,i .i,... i wending its way through the streets rtf Baltimore, the saddest eihaps that ever left the city. Miss J P . once fashion's reigning belle, now a Magdalen indeed, was borne to her last renting place. The mourners were her spiritual advit-ers and her companions in ohanic, t j her to the las'. who clu" A Mathers' Love. The affectionate nature of a mother is exhibited in the luxuriant fondness and the keenest solicitude fur her children. To thein how careful, how watchful, how ten der, how assiduous to supply their every want and meet their thousand ticees:- ties. How fervently and ardently she prays for their prose: vation from the nu merous evils and contaminations of a world of temptation, sin and sorrow. How carefully she instructs them in their duties to God and their relations to their fellow men ; and with what affectionate adroitnes she teaches them to prefer honor to gain, dut- to caw, public to private interest, and God's works to man's inventions. With what solicitous care she bends the tender twig so as to incline the future tree to virtuous paths. When others, and even the lather grows weary in looking to their interest, the mother faints not. Z Her hands are ever ready to labor and her feet swift to meet their demands. . Though her pro geny become prodigals strong and valiant sinners and by shameful deeds and re peated crimes, heap untold sorrow upon her weary head, causing her heart to blead without intermission, still she clings to her offspring, weeps, prays and labors for his reformation and salvation. She still loves him with a love unknown to any save "a mother, and is ever ready to say, "I am not angry dearest boy, . - A mother' heart ha yearned for thee, A mother's prayer been offered up, . To the Eternal Throne, : : And though thou hast been wayward, boy - Ttlisguided by thy w ill, A mother's love i thine, my hoy, Thou art my darling stdl. Was love ever like hers? So pure, ardent, disinterested and God-like. Tax the mind, the whole energy of your being; call into action eloquence and persuasion, let them do their utmost, andstill the halfuf that love can never be told. So God-like in its nature, it baffles every attempt at descrip tion. Happy the man who has a mother to love. . - An old couple came before a Justice of the Peace in New Orleans to be mar ried, and the ceremony was preceded by the following dialogue ; Wby, Rosa, you ain't going to marry that old lunatic, are von ?" asked : the Justice. "Ycs," to be sure, why not 'f "He'll kill you in less than a week." "May be so, sir,, but 1 enn'tbelp it." "Why not?" Oh! Because sirif I don't get married I'll die of grief; and if I do get married I'll be so glad I'll be ready to die." - Ax old woman of Koshkonong, Wis consin, who lost a goose two ynars ago, through the vindictiveness of an ameteur sportsman, has commenced suit for dam ccs in the sum of $80. She calculates that if the slain fowl had lived, and tinlied in accordauee with natural mul laws. the sale of the flesh and feathers of its de scendants would bring her the designated sum in greenbacks, C. Pakkiiukst, a young clerk, wlro eloped about a year ago with the wife of bis employer, a wealthy merchant of Phil adelphia, was found last week by dectives, enjoying a sort of Arcadian felicity with the guilty fair one, near Cherokee, Iowa, and carried back to Philadelphia to be tried for grand larceny. . , 'j , Miss Adelaide Philipsis giving concerts iii the Hastens States with Levy, the cor net player, Boscowitz, the pianist, and p new tenor named Leon!, who is a war fugitive from Pari. ; i''jjoDfiRn' A.UAZOXl , Ttie VTonien of the German Army. -! hj i, ii' -.-: . -)-.' mi :..

Recall the history only of JIargaretta Bobia. the beautiful Italian, of 1430. '. We could mention more than a docennaines from t,he German and French wars of the beginning of the present cen tury. The present war Las already re corded a number' of -oases, i-: A 'yonng wo man offered herself as a recruit at lireslau at the commencement of the present war. But was not accepted. ' On the' French side there is talk of a Parisian Amason Corps in the course of formation. Wheth er Eugenie will place herself at the head of her army when the danger is. greatest, a second Joan of Arc, remains to be seen. "In the first regiment of mounted chas seurs there is a Mademoiselle Novailles d'Albcrt. Baroness of Bernadotte, who serves in the ranks as a volunteer, and now fights like her comrades. At the bat tle of Woerth a French female sutler was captured with a chassepot in her hand, fighting desperately ngaiust the Prussians. McMahon is said toliavo quito a: number of female 'volunteers' in his headquarters,' and the Germans have made one good capture of hair pomade oud ladies', ward robes. Morals and military discipline are said by German correspondents to be alike m the rrench army, and that in the pur suit of pleasure the love of glory goes to Teufel. "Germany has decidedly stamped,.. the Amazonian spirit as unsuitable to the times. A Berlin operetta soubrcttc, Frau lein Minna Hansel, issued an address to the German women about a month ago, desiring to form a Berlin Free Corps of Anjazots. "She recognized the fact that women cannot fight m the ranks with men ; but fight recalling th Amazonian deeds of 1813 and 1814, 'thinks a number of women and maidens of the same way of thinking could he found to constitute an Amazon -Free Corps, which might be of great service" to the regular army, because a woman pos sesses certain jteculiarities of spirit and character of especial value in war, not possessed by men ; if such a mounted Am azon Free Corps stands at the disposition of a commanding general, to carry dis patches or similar information quickly from one place to another, and in case of need " uerraie " ousincis occupieu uv the enemy, tor example, on ttic cojists. ot : tne Aortu and ija.se saa, ic w;u oa oi greai- I . r- .. tf .

The Amazons of our day are not encased in soldier's armor , they may be seen in plain dress, their only .distinction being the red cross arm band. Xiie Old iTIaid of the Feriod. BY KANNY FERN. Ah I the modern old maid has her eye- teeth cut. She takes care of herself, in stead of her sister's nine children through mumps, and measles, and croup, andetyck-en-pox, and lang fever.' and leprosy, and what not.

Bos ton Times.. : - Eargrnllerd of Camels In Xevada. On a ranch 'v on the Carson river, eight miles below the mouth of Six-mile canyon, and about seventeen miles east of the city is to be seen a herd of twenty-six came is, all but two of which were bornd and raized in this State. But twoof the old herd of nine or ten brought here some years ago, are now living. It would seem that the original lot fell into the hands of Mexicans, who treated them very badly, overloading and abusing them. The. men who now hare them are Frenchmen, it seems, who had formerly some experience with caeiels in Europe. They find no difficulty n rear ing them, and can now show twenty-four fiue, healthy animals all of Washoe growth. The camel may now be said to be thorough ly acclimated . in this State. The owners of the heard find it no more difficult ' to breed and rear them than would be experi enced with the same number of goats or donkeys. .The ranch upon which they arc kept is sandy and sterile in tiie eSTremc, yet the animals feast and keep fat on such prickly shrubs and bitter weeds' as no other animal would toueh. When left to thenj selves, their great delight,-: after ailing themselves with the coarse herbage of the desert, is to lie and roll iu the hot sand.; ; They arc used to packing salt to thethilla on the river, from the marshes lying id the desert, some sixty miles to the eastward. They bare animals that easily pack 1,100 pound. ""' " . '-, ' i . i ingenuity of Rogues.

It was there all right, and he made sure of keeping it there by keeping his hand on ' it through the performance of the opera.-1; On 'coining: put what was his astonishment to find hi, watch gone. It had been taken in spite of his watchfulness. Reflecting that' a watch'so engraved could not well be 'dis posed of even in New Yoik, he advertised his loss in the next morning's papers, and added that a reward (100) would be paid for its recovery, and no questions asked. Before noon the bell rang, and a very ele gantly dressed roan; in appearance a per fect gentleman', inquired for the advertiser of a lost watch. '' ! '' "' 1 ; ' " ' Have you got it?" asked the'' doctor, quietly, v ; ' r ' "I have," coolly replied the stranger; "here it is I claim the reward."

" 'True,'" raid the Doctor.' but I only want to know how under Heaven you got that watch when I kept my hand on it all the time?" "Are you sure jou kept your band over it all the time?" "Yes positive." "Now, let me refresh your memory. Don't you remember, at one interesting stage of the performance, there was a'fly lit on j-our ear, and you raised 'our hand to brush it off?" "Yes; it is a fact." said the Doctor, "I do remember that." "Well, sir," said the elegant stranger, that was the time you lost your watch. I tickled the top of your ear with a straw, and you brushed off the supposed fly, and didn't notice when your hand went back that your watch was no longer there. Good -morning sir."
