AUTUMN WOODS.
'Ere In the northern pate,
The nun mer lr< sses ot the trtes are Ron >,
The woods of autumn, all around our vale,
Have put their glory on.
The mountains that untold.
In their wide sweep, the colored landscape round,
Beem group# of glam kings in purple and in gold,
'lhat guard the enchanted ground.
I roam the woods that crown
The upland, w here the mingled splendors glow ,
Where the gay company of trees lock down
On the gre* u fields below.
My steps are not alone
lu these bright walks; the sweet southwest,at play.
Flies, ties'ling, where the painted leaves are Etrewn
Along the- winding way.
And far In heaven, the while,
The sun, that seeds the gab- to wander here.
Tours out on the lair earth his <piiet smile

Where now the solemn shade
Verdure and bloom where many branches me - ,

Come the strange raysphe for* Bt depths arebrlghl;
Their sunny colored foliage in the breeze,
Twinkles like beams of light.
The rivulet, late unseen, (run,
Where, flickering through the shrubs, its waters
Shines with (he image of Its golden screen,
Aud glimmerings of the suu.
But ’neath yon (trimson tree
Lever to listening maid night breathe his flame,
Nor mark, within its roseate canopy,
Her blush of maiden shame.
Oh, Autumn I why so soon
Depart the hues that make th<- forest glad;
Thy gent'e wind and thy fair sunny noon,
Aud leave thee wild and sad ?
Ali 1 ’twere a lot too blest
Forever lu thy colored shades to stray;
Amid the kisses of the suit southwest.
To roam and dream for aye.
And leave the vain, low strife [er;

KIT! V CIiAIIJ.
•'lsn't Hunt Agnes a funny woman,” in
quired Kitty Clair oi lier mother, as fcho
held up a large envelope, which enclosed
a beautiful gold-edged letter sheet, all fine
ly written over; “and what do you suppose
the letter is about, niolhei? I may as
tell you at once, for I know you never be
tray my confidence.”
We will therelore insert it for the spe
cial benefit of our young friends similarly
situated, hut who, it may be, are in quest
of tfie same advice:
“Deab Kitti —You ask me my opinion
respecting accepting the offer ot Mr. Stock

him. before 1 begin to reply. The minu
tenesswith which you hive described hi
person and address, together with some
little conversational sallies which you l ave
furnished ns illustiating ms and good hu
mor, all told mo the state ot your heart.
So to begin, with a person who sees only
the brilliant parts of one’s character, who
feels that nobody ever was coin parable with
him; nay more, to talk over matters which
have been incorporated in your Lours oi
silence and midnight meditations, while
your thoughts have bi-en skimming over
the indistinct realities of a future home,
over which the lord ot your affection pres
ides supreme, until at length wrapt in
dreamy forgetfulness the pleasant images
have a full realization in disturbed slum
bers, where a fairy land is foreshadowed—
f repeat it, to advise with such a person,
is no difficult task.
“But you must remember, my dear
niece, Mr. Stockton is but a man. Ho un
doubtedly has a human heart, and you im
agine him possessed ol a lively imagina
tion, which will always keep you in a cheer
ful frame ot mind. Ten •chances to one,
Kitty, marriage will dispel such an illu
sion. Just suppose yourself thrown in some
ot the irritating bramble paths oflife

company in the parlor, and a few country
cousins in the chambers, and perchance
your present adviser in some ante-room;
your chore girl knows nothing about spit

you arc thrown on your own resources,
and pride and ambition are both tjevereh
tixed. Your husband, it maybe, brings
home a particular friend to dineon this
unlucky dy. The magic spell Oi court
is dissolved. He demands a more nutri
tious diet now. Can you steer through
such a blast and keep your self-poss ssion,
and be both cook and mistress in such an
emergency? Ii not, I beg you to consider
such a case beforehand,
“Again, in married life other perplex

upon some favorite project which not at

“Other days of disquietude may arise.
Sometimes your idol may seem dull and
tacitnre; no efforts ot yours can always dis

a moody temperament, which ends in a
‘natural way sometimes he may have en

and his conduct may sadly vex and puzzle
you; perchance the fond appellations and

Mr. Stockton bo that in alter life, when

‘ Yours, affectionately,
Emma Agnes."
Kitty Clair was no philosopher; yet the
vholesome reasoning of her aunt was duly
heeded. Her marriage was postponed un
til she bad sufficiently digested (he con
tents. of the above letter; and their practi
cal bearings may be better comprehended
by a letter Irom Mr. Stockton, dated two
year.-, alter marriage. It was addressed to
i near friend, who was consulting him
respecting the expediency of being mar
ried:
“I can only speak, my friend, as it re
cards myself. I have never for an hour
regretted my alliance; for I know I have
secured a princely treasure, and this as
set lion ta not the enthusiastic burst of a
passionate man, during the honeymoon.
We have been placed in most Irvine exi
gences since our wedding day. Failure,
sickness, bereavement, and changes of e.u
uiu xpccted character have fallen to our lot;
but my dear Kitty has borne them liko an
experienced Christian matron. In days of
depression she has been my sunlight; in
hours of sickness she bus faithfully and 0,
how cheerfully, glided about like a noise
less angel; and when worldly blight has
forced us to a more simple style of living,
how readily she has conformed to the
change mailing herself the rainbow amidst
the passing showers. Yet, the refinement
of t.er character has always been her
chief attraction. She never felt her dig
nity lowered by merely submitting to con
form to circumstances; mistress alike of
the kitchen and the drawing room; loved
by her domestics, and, a perfect example of
sweetness of temper at all times. Now 7 ,
could you find such another being, I would
aeoominend you, without hesitation, to
marry. Rut gold must be tried, to learn
its purity—with your cautious reserve, you
may hesitate too long, and find the ‘crooked
slick’ at last. Come to our fireside, and
test the reality of what I have written.”
In Kitty Clair, how much have modern
young ladies to encourage them. By rea
sonable attention to that maiden’s letter,
they too, can make a homo as the Stock
ton’s. But bo assured there is some labor
in accomplishment. It is not secured by
buying the beat treatises on cooking or
hiring the nicest laundry woman; orsim
piy directions to professed cooks; there
must Lo a personal supervision. And
though sometimes the feet may be weary
in the service, and the hands soiled by oc
lu’ labor, yet depend on it, yon are only
by such process strengthening the bonds
of low iu the affections of every worthy
i husband.

From the Utah Gospel.
Mbs Laura Claire, the beautiful daughter
ot Prof. Ignaz Claire, the astronomer, has,
it lias b en well known for some time, been
engaged to Mr. Alfred Vivian, the young
writer, author of “Hell and Heaven
Which Will You Have?” “Think and Be
, ent, ’ “Prayers tor the Sinners,’’ and oth
er beautiful tracts, which have given him
quite a reputation; but for some reason or
other it has been suspected there was a
coolness between them. Still, Miss Claire
loved him devotedly, and the preparations
tor the wedding were going on.
In the meanwhile Mr. Joseph Morton, a
young gentleman of this city, had fallen
desperately in love with Miss Claire, and
refused to be denied admittance to the
house, although Professor Claire had sev
eral times ordered him out. He, when
treated thus, declared mysteriouelv that
he knew certain secrets about Miss Claire,
and if she did not marry him he would re
peat them. He demanded to see her
alone. This she finally consented to, and,
after a long interview- he departed, stating
ho would return the next day. To this
she .stailed and said: “Yes, I shall always
be glad to see yon.”
These words were repeated by one of the
servants to Mr. Vivian when he came that
evening, and h asked his affianced what
they meant Sue said, “Nothing.” After
a while he said. ‘ Do you love this Mortou?”
Miss Claire laughed and said, “ Don’t be a
fool, Alfred.” “Then you refuse to au
swery he said. She frowned. “You know
1 love you,” she answered; “and if you ask
me any more silly questions, I shall be
angry.” Mr. Vivian left shortly after, ap
pearing much displeased.
The next morning Mr. Morton came.—
The servants noticed that Miss Claire was
deadly pale, but she received him quite
cordially. “You must have some wine,”
she said. “Of course,” he replied; “with
you.” He took a glass and drank it. Soon
after he departed, but before ho had walk
ed three blocks he fell to the ground, and
was picked up dead! A post-mortem exam
ination revealed that he had been poisoned.
Miss Claire was arrested. She sent tor
Vivian. ‘Do you believe me guilty?” she
linked. “I haw nothing to say,” he replied;
“I am, and have been lor a month, engaged
to be married to a gay lady in this city, and
it is not right that I should be seen with
you.”
Iho young lady uttered a piercing
scream. “Oh, Alfred,” she shrieked, “I
did it for your sake—l loved you— he
could have prevented our marriage. Oh,
Alfred, do not desert me—save me—save
me!” Mr. Vivian tore himself away, and
would have quitted the ceil, when Miss
Claire placed herself with her back against
the door. “Look I’’ she said; and before
ho could prevent it, she had drawn a dag
ger. and stubbing herself, foil dying at his
t ct. “I forgive you, Hove yon,” she mur
mured, and her eyes closed forever.

EGYPT,
Americans in the Service -Their Posi

Habits and Vitus.
Cairo Correspondents of t!.e New York Herald.
We are pleasantly situated bere, and are
tr ated by our noble Viceroy with great
kindness and consideration, and are all
busily engaged in our various departments
organizing and giving tLem a system.
Heretofore all has been confusion. Oar
reports have been most favorably received,
and doubtless will be adopted. We hope
to be, and no doubt will ho, ot service to
this country, and in a short time make the
army of Egypt the beat little army in the
world.
I have never seen such material. The
soldiers ae the finest looking men I have
ever seen, well-behaved and subordinate.
They would chaig* the gates of darkness.
1 am pleased to say the American officers
are very popular with the soldiers and peo
ple. Wo have had quite a hot summer. It
we had come out in the tall instead of the
spring, it would have been better, as the
heat has greatly exhausted us.
With regard to the American officers
here. General C. I*. Stone is Chief of
Stall, General A. W. Reynold-- is Quar
termaster, Commissary, and I'.vymaster-
General, General Luring is Inspector
General of all the infantry. General Sibley
is Inspector General of Artillery, Colonel
Rhett is Chief of Ordnance. Colonel Keii
nou is inchirgc of the coast defenses, Col.
F. A. Reynolds is Colonel of light artillery,
but at present is acting as Assistant In
spector General; Zeniior is Inspector of
Cavalry, Gt ncral Mott, who had that posi
tion, having been tianstVrred to the staff
of the Viceroy. While 1 am writing,
a regiment of infantry is just pass
ing. Their movements are like clock
work. I have visited most of the
places ol interest, and am much pleased
with id I I have seen. There is always
something going on which interests us in
the way of fetes and amusements. lam
told the winter here is tin most delightful.
The Viceroy expends 1 irge sums of money
to amuse his people. Wo have one ot the
finest opera houses in the world. The
Viceroy’ pays all < xperises, and has the best
performers in Europe engaged. Ho will
have none but the best and the prettiest
women as performers. His balls are mag
nificent. We are all excited just now on
the war question in Europe.
Tho Viceroy in a Prince ot gicat ability,
and foresaw the trouble now existing in
Europe. He had many French officers in
his service, hut ho knew that when the
Emperor wanted his subjects they would
be demanded and would have to go. Such
has been the case, and the I'leuch are now
leaving Egypt. The Viceroy has employed
American officers of distinction, on whom
he can rely. Of cou.se, they are acting
independently of the United States, though
in their contract they are not required or
expected to . erve in any way against tho
United States. The kindness of the Vice
roy and his ministers is very
marked his American pets, while
they, in turn,are exerting every nerve to de
serve Lis good opinion. All the court have
returned to Ca ro for the winter, which is
expected to bo very gay and delightful.
The Viceroy Is the richest Prince on this
side of the water, and is more liberal than
Princes generally are. He is beloved by
his people, and rides out like a private
gentleman, without tear. A.s he passes
every one stops and salutes him, which he
returns like an old soldier. Ho is about
45 years old, handsome, and speaks sev
eral languages. He has given his Ameri
cans several dinners, and is anxious they
should bring out their families this fall.
The Viceroy reads tho American news
papers. He is one of tho most progressive
men of the age.
Peat.
From tho Philadelphia Ledger.
The day is not very distant when the
manufacture ot p<jat will almost, if not in
deed quite, rival the coal mining interests
of the coumry. All the tests which have
been made of peat confirm its great use
fulness, and wherever pioperiy made, it
must replace the wood, soon to be too
scarce to burn, where people do not like
coal dust and smoke. The deposits of
peat seem to be as general and as exten
sive as those of coal in the land, and much
may be expected from them. A company
called tho “Central” has begun to make
peat in Connecticut, three miles north of
Meriden, on the H rtford and New
Haven Hail road. and the railroad,
which has been paying nine
dollars a ton for coal, contracts to take
all the peat the works can make, paying sf G
per ton, for a fuel which trial proves will do
service ton for ton with coal. The Grand
Trunk Railroad of Canada has long used
peat in preference to coal, as cheaper, and
as free from smoke and cinders. The
Hartford and New Haven Road tested it
thoroughly in their shops, tounderics, and
locomotives, before adopting it. August
20, their engine Dragon made the run ot
the road, with eighteen loaded freight cars
in twenty minutes less than schedule time.
The Pr sident of the Central Company is

known iu the Lake Superior copper re
gions, and tho inventor of its peculiar ma

K ing William's Officers.
From the Boston Journal.
A banker of Berlin, who is connected
with one of tho leading houses m New
York, is now in this city. Ti a reeled an
incident or two ol the King of Prussia
his officers which may be interesting just
now. He says that since tho battle ol
Sadowa every officer has been kept under
strict military rule, as if in camp. The
highest officers live in plain quarters, and
some of them occupy rooms m the third
and fourth stones of the plainest buildings
in Berlin. All extravagance and luxury
were forbidden; no one allowed to run iu
debt; every one required to live on his sal
ary, which is quite limited, and all are
under the eje of the King, ns if in camp.
King William himself sets an example.
The palace is occupied by officers ol state
for the transaction ot business. The
King’s quarters arc plain, humble, una
dorned, and would hardly suit the ambi
tion and pride o‘ a clerk iu Wall street.
Moltkc’s habits and style of living are
more simple than those of any officer iu
the army. Like a professor in a college,
he tramps his daily round of duty, visiting
every department of tho army, and in
structing the chief officers personally, and,
through these everv private in the army
is made perfect iu drill and discipline. By
this Spartan mode of life tho entire army
is kept iu a perfect state ot discipline, on
a perpetual war footing, and ready to
march at a moment's notice.
The Laboest Kitchen in the Would is
that (and the Liebig Beef Extract Company
Uruguay. It covers 20,000 square feet
o ground, and is divided into a number ot
comnartments, which are so constructed
with a view to their peculiar use. You
enter riiit a large, dark, cool hall, with
p-ved floor, where the meat is weighed and
conveyed through openings in the
wall to the cutting machines.
These are four in number, and
can cut up wo hundred young oxen
in an hour. From the cutting
machines the meat goes into twelve re
ceivers, where it is pressed by steam
power of seventy-five pounds to the square
inch. These twelve receivers are capable
of containing 12,000 pounds of meat each.
From these the meat, or rather the liquid
now. runs through pipes into receptacles
constructed for the purpose of separating
the fatty substance from the extract, and to
clear it. Lastly, it is raised by steam air
pumps into large coolers, filtered, and sub
sequently packed for transportation. The

A Slrange Story about Riclielieu’s Head
From the Now York Mill.
On the 15th of December, 1866, the re
mains of Cardinal Richelieu were to be re
interred with solemn ceremonies at the
Church of the Sarbonne, in Paris. Some
occasion occurred for opening the coffin,
when jt Was lound that the head was miss
ing. The fact was noised abroad; when,
suddenly the missing head turned up at
Biarritz, in the possession of one M. Annez
an ex-deputy, who presented it to the Em
peror-, enclosed in an elegant box covered
and lined with velvet. This very head
which once so proudly wore a cardinal’s
scarlet hat, and which enclosed the won
derful brain which had ruled both the king
and the Regent of France, tyrannized over
the queen, banished the queen mother,
and which instigated a long series ol
bloody wars and so ruthlessly persecuted
the Protestants of France the very head
rolled aside, unheeded, when in 17 ( J3 the
the Jacobins desecrated the aristocratic
tombs of (he church of the Sarbouue. But
the quiek eye of a tradesman, who was
upon the outskirts of the crowd, at 1 ;st
spied it out in the corner into which it had
rolled. Ho took it up. and by certain
signs recognizing it—which was not diffi
cult in view of the nalming process to
which it had been subjected —be split it in
two parts, the face being all thxt he cared
for, and kept it as a curiosity for many
yocrs, when he either sold or presented it
to Armez. And 224 years after Richelieu’s
death, the face was found to bo something
of the color of Acazou wood. The point
of the rn.se had been slightly flattened by
pressure, < n d the half-open mouth showed
two rows ol well-preserved and white teeth.
The moustache and imperial were scanty
but the historicprrffilei was m almost per
fect preservation. The Eav V v, lr had tin-,
remarkable head, or rather this remarka
ble half bead, aput to keep company with
the trunk, to which it rightfully belonged,
and the remains were re-interred with
great splendor.
FniK an a Medicine.
f lhe worst case of dyspepsia cau bo
cured without the least particle ot medi
cine, simply by eating nothing in which
lard is an ingredient, using butter sparing
ly, eating bread made ol unbolted Hour,
and making free use of fruits, especially
apples. In fact, most people would be
much better off if they ate meat not more
than once or twice a week, and used fruit
and vegetables instead. Pork and lard are
groat promoters of dyspepsia, and fevers
and billions diseases are fed by keeping
.up bodily heat of mid-winter through
June and July, August and September,
but never changing our diet from
the heavy meats of January.
An eminent French physician says
that the decrease of dyspepsia and bilious
affections in Puns is owing to tho increased
consumption of apples; a fruit, ho main
tains, which is an admirable preventive
and tonic, as well as a very nourishing and
easily digested article of food. The Pari
ians devour one hundred millions of them
every winter, and we do not doubt that
these statements are perfectly correct. In
fact, instances have come under our obser
vation where fresh fruit had an immediate
effect in checking bilious tendencies in in
dividuals, and wo have heard of whole dis
tricts where bilious diseases become preva
lent upon the failure of tho fruit crop.
Fruit growers may, therefore, count upon
a constantly increasing demand for tho
products of their orchards and gardens, as
tho health-giving properties of fruit be
come known.
Kansas City has a vocal dog, and this is
way he is described by a local reporter:
“ll would be utterly impossible to express
in words the force, the depth and variety
of this canine vocalism. It expresses ail
the modulation and modifications of human
distress. The plaintive wail ol suffering
infancy, tho groan of the strong man’s
agony, the moans of the sick and w ounded,
the stifled cry of the victim under the
grasp of the garroter, the shout of defi
ance, the scream of terror, tho yell ot de
spair, grief, rage, madness, nightmare,
delirium tremens, baffled ambition, disap
pointed love, defeat in elections, the ‘hum
mer's’ bacchanalian shout, tootuche, corns
on the toes, bedbugs, mosquitos, and all
the ills that flesh is heir to, are faithfully
delineated or vividly suggested by this
canine ventriloquist.”
French and American Flirting.—A

This story of a spunky widow comes
from a local journal:
Mrs. Arnold is a widow in Malone, N.Y.,
who tills her farm with her own hands,
w hose barn was accidentally burned, a; and
who proposed to have anew one built. In
consequence of the advice ol a friend, she
vaiied from the usual custom. She sup
plied coffee, tea, and good eatables to the
who were to raise the frame—but
no wuisKjr ( .or.wqufiico of which was
that the men refused to go on r th the
‘ raising.” The circumstance was men
tioned in three of the local churches on
Sunday. Fifty men, women and children
visited the widow on Monday; ministers
and farmers became carpenters for the oc
casion. Within a few hours the barn was
complete, double-hoarded all around, and
roofed in.
A funny accident happened at a large
wedding in a neighboring city Home time
ago. The church wan crowded, and the
brilliant bridal party had just begun to
move up the aisle when suddenly every
light in the building went out. The gas
could not be lighted again, and the wed
ding had to be performed by the light ot a
solitary kerosene lamp placed on the lec
tern. The illumination was resumed for
tunately before the party left the church,
so that the bride and her attendant maid
ens were enabled to display th ir toilettes
once down the aisle, and were thus saved
from utter desperation.
Drunkenness in Russia.—“A curious
police regulation for the punishment of
intoxication exists in Russia. Persons
found drunk and incapable in the public
thoroughfares are taken into custody and
condemned to work tor a day at sweeping
the streets; consequently, well-dressed of
fenders are sometimes seen performing
their task, broom in hand.” It is added
to the above information that “This lesson
s intended for individuals who have not
ost all sense of shame.” It is not a hint

German Girls and the French Prisoners.
Berlin Gorresponden o Boston Advertise r.
It is worthy of remark that no distinc
tion cun be observed betweeb the treat
ment received by the wounded Germans
and the wounded Frenchmen. Indeed,
there has been considerable complaint that
prisoners received the most sympathy. A
recent editorial in the Madgeburg Dische
ZeituQg, one of the most “respectable
dailies” in Germany, which for the secrets
it exposes, and tor the delicate ironj' ■with
which it reproves some of the young Ger
man ladies lor the excessive pity they have
shown towards the gallant prisoners, is
decidely racy, it tells the story of a young
■ lady at the railway station in X., who car
ried six smoking cups ot coffee to a car
containing only prisoners. The German
guard who had helped capture them begg
ed a cup for himself, saying that he iiad
tasted nothing warm since he left
Saarbrncken. But she replied that it
was ordered only for the prisoners. Pre
tending to open the car door for her, he
knocked the waiter from her hand and
dashed the six cups of coffee upon the
pavement. The editor, evidently rejoic
ing over this act of the guard, discusses
the questions whether these young ladies
may not be permitted to gratify their
“false sentimentality,” the offspring of
uovel-readmg, and if they are to have ho
opportunity to display their little smatter
ing ot French, which they have acquired
with so much difficulty, and at the ex
pense of so much hard-earned mom y. In
answer to these questions the young ladies
are counselled to attend, tirst, to the
wounded, friend and foo alike; secondly,
to the noble victorious Germans, who have
put their own lives iu jeopardy in defense
of the fatherland; thirdly, to the French
prisoners not wounded; and, fourthly, il
anything should be left, and m rhaps it
would be unjust to say that ihe writer
deem* it unimportant whether anything

SouiPi medical men Insist that it is undignified to
advertise a remedy, however valuable it may be.
Queer reasoning this. It is like saying that an
article which the world nae Is should be hid In a
o.jrut r - that benefits and blessings may be (o wide
ly diffused—that the means of protecting and restor
ing health should be a close monopoly, and n> t
accessible to all. The argument is bad. It is
worse than that; it is inhuman. Suppose Hostet
ler's Stomach Hitters—an absolute specific ior dys
pepsia, biliousness and nervous debility ~ had never
been known beyond the repertoire of (he faculty,
what would have been the consequence ? Instead
of curing and invigorating millions, the good effects
of the preparation would have been confined to a
comparative few. There is the highest authority
for saying that light should not be hid uuder a
bushel; that whatever is '•xcelleut should be placed
as a city on a hill, whore all men can take cogni
zance of it. It is upon this principle that the
Hitters have been advertised and continue to be
advertised iu every newspaper of any prominence
iu the western hemisphere, and that the spon
taneous testimonials in its favor have been trans
lated into alt written languages. Thousands eui.y
perfect health to-day who would be languishlngon
beds of sickness if the newspapers had uot spread
t’lf truth wi'h regard tn this unequalled intngnrant awl
c reed're far and wide. Suppose profit hes been
reaped from this publicity. Is Mat any argument
against i ? If U e public health has been protect
ed; if lives have b-eti saved; if the feeble have been
strength’ n and and the sick restored, great good has
tmn accomplished; and who so moan as to grudge
to exertions thus directed their reward ? 6
