May is now in tbo western part of Ontario end lavoriug to soonro a complete representation of our manufacturing and agricultural interests at the International Exhibition nt Paris next year. We hope an effort will be made to have Ingersoll aud the Connty of Oxford properly repre­ sented. In Loudon ho has met with very gratifying success in bis canvass for exhibi­ tors. More than thirty in Hamilton have promised to put in an appearance. In L »ndon, more than twenty. In St. Catharines, about twelve, and in Brantford fifteen, with others in proportion. In general the people greatly appreciate the efforts made by the Government in. con­ nection with the Exhibition at Philadelphia and in Australia, aud are the more induced to come forward for what promises to be tbo fnes ant, for Canadians, the most valuable of them all. Tbo English cata­ logue will not only give a description of Cani la. but of avety city, town and village from nhio i any exhibitors come, and will also show the character and extent of the manufaeturiug industries in each, aa well as the facilities of production aud shipping p*sseesed by each single produoer. It is also proposed to interest the different agricultural societies in the country to col­ lect specimens on ths stalk of the different coreaU grown in Canada, in order to shew the number of grains on each head, and the character and quality of the straw. In short, nothing will be spared to m ,ke the exhibition of Canadian products, a thor­ oughly vffeetive one, and it will bo to their profit, as well as to their honor, if all Canadian manufacturers and producers go as heartily into the work of preparation as many have already done.

Fire hundred insane and idiotic people ara utterly uncared for. Some of tho county alms houses are dis­gusting dens, of filth and prostitution sick­ ening to contemplate. In tho Allegheny Co. nlm< house the saneand insane are indiscriminately associated without regard to sex. An epileptic colored girl had three children, t wo born in theuline house. In Anno, Arundel County, A'ms House,the white inmates live in unrestricted con­ cubinage. Ono insane woman has had thres illegitimate children iu the aimsLouse. The Baitimero County Alms House is fearfully overcrowded. Tlu* inmates arc flecpiniug iu tho bath rooms aud waterclosets. Carolina County Aims House is a mock­ery of charity and a misery of pollution. One woman boro two and another six chil­ dren in tbo institution.The colored department was worso than * l>'l»l!b’- L Oi'o wmll room were five women, two children, several cats aud dogs,and other living things. In tho Cecil County Alms II -ns* the sexes so easily mingle that several illegiti­mate births have oceunod. Ono idiotic woman, herself born in the Alms House, gave birth to six children.Tho Washington County Alms Honso is a common nuisance, more sickening and revolting than the others.The exposure will probably cause a re­ formation of these horrible barbarities.

It appears thata man named John Hogg,in the employ of Joseph Relinger, firmer and drover, at Little Germany, lately fell in love with a maid-6ervant who formerlylived at Ucliuger'r. He was not successfulin his wooiug, and lacking courage to press it farther enlisted the employers wife on his side to plead hiscauvo with the young Inly.This it appears had no effect, for a short time ago Anthony Relinger, brother of Joseph, married the girl ami settled quiet­ly down to domestic life in the township of Wilmot. The hired man Hogg broodedover the affair a good dcnl and finallymust have ct ino to the conclusion that he bad been duped by Ida advocate, Mn, Rel­ inger. He vowed vengeance and bi led histime, and when Saturday, the 4th inst., camo round, n grand opportunity presented itself, ns his employer had gone to NewYork and Mrs. Relinger was out in the woods picking berries. He entera.l thebouts and with an nxe smashed everythingin it, ripped np all tbo clothing ho could find and buttered a gold watch to pieces, besides battering some twenty-dolUr goldpiices.out of all shape. After this he killed a couple of cows, and was proceeding tofire the barn when some parties appeared on the scene and took him into custody. The value of the property destroyed is about 81.000. The time occupied in per­forming the work of destruction was about three hours. Hogg was afterwards brought before a Magistrate, who committed himto stand his trial for destroying property.— Quelph Mercury.

But if a cow has eaten bad food, or has taken impure water, it is well to know how to handle the milk so as to re­ ceive the least injury. These odors, I claim, are principally held in the water of the milk, and just as long as tbo milk remains warm enough to throw off vapor, these odors are notioable; and as soon as a thin layer of cream forms on the surface, these odors must pass through it and become more or less imprisoned in the cream and And their way into the churn. I find the bi«t method of setting milk is to cool it as quickly as possible below tbo point of evaporation, and sufficiently low to obtain the cream in a few hours; then the butter even in the hottest weather, will be all one pan desire." business (fafrs.Co m m ercial A secret told Hoard up Ilk* gold tkeett Banttfaetdrii When a man has confessedly excelled in - M y brandt of industry it is always well for others Crig-tged in a similar occupation, to ’e re the principles and method by adhering to which his saooess has been secured. At the late Centennial Exposition, Mr. Thomas Bdlantyne, as our readers have had ample 1 opportunity of learning, obtained the prem­ ium for the best cheese on exhibition, and at the last meeting of the American Dairymen s Association he briefly described the principles which he is acoostomed to observe in manu­ facturing the article. AU of these have, from J time to time, been entered and illustrated inart at large In these columns, and yet as a pithy reminder it may be well to repeat them in Wife words of the successful competitor. He said :— "The first thing necessary in order to make fine cheese is to have the milk in proper condi tion at the commencement of the process of , taannfactotw. And here it is very difficult to lay down rule* that can be applied in all cases to reception of the milk at tho factory, nod no. >wo factories receive it exactly the flame way. Some receive it once a day, and others twice. Some factorymen draw it themaelvea or see to the drawing, and have the ears of the cows, while in other cases tho patron* draw their own milk, but whatever plant* adopted, it is absolutely no rosary that -tK* wiilk should always be in good condition when it reaches tho factory. To accomplish this the futorymen and a'l connected therewith musts*, to it that their arrangements are such that proper attention to cleanliness is preserv­ ed UiroughouL Unless the pans nnd uten­ sil* are properly and regularly washed, *cour- *1 and ecaldod, a reaUy fine cheese cannot be wiMtnfxe tn red- Having then the first requi- site, milk in proper condition, we aro ready for the process ot manufacture. In tho first part of tho season it is very de­ sirable that the cheese be made to ripen early the sooner the better. How ia this to be done? By Hiring rennet very freely. In tho early part of the season we use sufficient to cause it to coagulate in 25 or 30 minutes, and draw off the whey at the approach of the slightest acidity, allowing the curd to faU to the bottom of the vat, salt slightly and generally observe the plan used in the cheddar process. Wc do not regard the keeping qualities so much, at this season, but desire to have it ready early for the market. When the season is advanc* cd we use a smaller quantity of rennet; only sufficient to cause coagulation in 40 minutes, drawing off the whey on the approach of tho slightest aridity, and packing the curd at the aids of the vat. The greatest question is to know tho requi­ site anridlty, This can only be acquired by ex- perieno*. Eaohfractical cheese-maker must . find for himself what is necessary to make a ■ aelid, clean ehecse. lu the summer season we use a smaller quan­ tity of rennet end a larger quantity of salt, •ay 2j lb*. <rf salt to 1,000 lb*, of milk, in the Spring never using more thin 2 or If lbs. Of the cheese that reaches th* early market de­ fect***, a great proportion of it may be trace- able to the fact that rennet was not used in sufficient qoanticio*. Another great cauHo of imperfect early cheese is defective curing room*. It is absolutely necessary to keep up a proper temperature. In the spring it re­ quire* to be higher than in the Fall. A tem- psratar* ot 65 degrees will bo n-ccetary in the Fall, and 85 degrees in the spring. The milk in th* Fall contains more butter than in Spring. From my observation* and experi­ ment* during the past tws years, I have come to (he cundiuiun that a good deal of the worst cheese dee* not come from bad milk, but from eareleaaneM in stirring the curd during the rwskhtg process. Whil* the heat is being sqppUad the card falls to the bottom of the pan, when Che tsmperature is greater than btood boat, and coming tn contact with the bottom, i» somewhat wilted or scorched, and this give* the taste ef toasted cheese, I have not tit* slightest doubt that in most cases strong eherse is produced from that cause. It is very Important that the heat should be gradually and regularly applied, th* water being Aired to from 8? to 84 and 56 degrees, duri.tg which the stirring should he carefully kept up, The heating process shauld be com- plrted in from cue hour to buur and a half. r In th* Spring whaa the temperature of th* McCAUCHKY A WALSH.

(TADW^CK.In«er»nll, July C, 1877. ISO A correspondent in Canada writes to u», requesting information upon certain portions of the process of cheese manufacture. It v.ould require too much of our space to answer all th^questions. Wc select such m we have room for, and -would refer him for further information to such books as Willard’* Practical Dairy Husbandry and Arnold’* American Dairying. The first question is, “ Do you know ol anything added to the coloring that wil brighten the cheese f The question is rathci indefinite, but the writer’s idea is evidently to get at the method of making his cheese ai bright and handsome as possible. Wc pre tamo that his coloring substance is nnnatti in some shape,/bat being now generally ac ceptcd as the best coloring agent known There are several preparations made from this, such as annatto paste, annatto-inc, &c.; but our advice would bo to prepare the coloi for yourself, directly from the seed. In that way you wiU avoid all danger of an intermix ture of impure foreign substances, which s many of tho preparations contain ; and which while of no earthly advantage to the coloi are sometimes dangerous to the cheese and its consumers. Tho coloring ‘matter should h mixed thoroughly with the milk before th rennet is put in. After tbo whey has be: drawn off, the exposure to the air is what set the color ; and the more slowly the work i carried on at this stage of the process, th brighter arid handsomer will be tbo color < the cheese when it has reached maturity. Another question, as nearly as wc can g< at its meaning, is this :—'• Would you a< vise me to run off my whey as soon a1 thoroughly cooked, and pack the curd at th side of the vat J" By putting it in this shap we combine two of our correspondent's quer iea into one. Now, it depends upon the kind of cheese you desire to make, whether y< would pack it in this way or not If, as v suppose, you intend to’ follow flic ChediL plan, then it is proper to pack your curd ; described, but not as soon as it is cookc When your materials have all become hcat< to an even temperature, you should then tur off the heat arid permit the whey to stan upon the curd for a short time, without stin ing, in order to allow the particles of buttei which may be floating in the whey, to scttl upon the curd. Then introduce the sypho and draw off tho whey, and pack your cur in a miss at the side of the vat, which nr ■ be slightly tipped to allow the whey to dra ’ off from the curd. t Tho last question for which wc have spa f is, ” What is the neatest method of band? t ing The method now generally pursued 1 to place the bandage inside the hoop, and th > fill-in with the curd. By this means t > cheese is made to adhere firmly to the bar t age, while the latter is tilled out to as to l smooth and even in appearance. The pl ‘ mentioned by our correspondent is v< ? crude and old-fashioned, and is entirely d , continued among modern dairymen. 0 We shguld be pleased to receive cominn 0 cations from any one interested in dairy m ters, and will always hold our columns op • for intelligent information or criticism of < • isting plans and fact*.—Utica Herald.

To-day when I ;looked at her useless feet, and shrunken hands, and deep hollow eyes, I seemed tobear a voice from far Jndeau hills : ‘bearye one another's burdens and Uncle Orme—I>fhi willing to bear Maud’s bur- jden jM'flio eud of my life. My shoulders have become accustomed to tho load they (havn carried fi r over seventeen years, and ,I will n<-t shift it to poor Maud's. I am | strong, she is pitiably feeble. I have | never known the blessing of a father’s love,have learned to do without it; she has no i other comfort, no other balm, and I will notrob hor of the little, God has left her. 1understand how mother feels, I cannot blame her; and while I know that her careand anxiety in this matter are chiefly on i my account, I could never respect, never < forgive myself, ,if to promote my own im- (portanco or interest I selfishly consented to beguar poor Maud. Siie cannot live long ; ] death has set a shadowy mark already (npon her weird eyes, and until they close (in tho peace of the grave, let us leave her , the name she seems so proud of. She pro­nounced it—Maud Ames Laurance,—as though it were a royal title. Let her bear . it. I can wait.’ (As Mr. Ciiesley watched tho pale gem- j like face, with its soft holy eyes full of a , resolution which he knew, nil the world ]could not shake, a rudden mist blurred her ,image, and taking her band, ho kissed her | forehead. 1' My noble child, if tho golden rule you | seek to practise, wero iu universal accepts- . tion and actualization, injustice, fraud, andcrime would overturn the bulwarks ot , morality and decency. When men violate the laws of God nnd man as CuthbertLanrance certainly has done, even religion ; ns well ns justice requires that this crime |shon'd bo punished ; although in nearly all ,such instances, the innocent suffer for tho ] sins of the guilty. Your mother owes it to ,you, to me, to -hcrs-lf, to society, to de- . maud recognition of her legal rights ; and J though 1 do not approve of all that she pro- ]poses (at least the manner of its accoinp- . lishment), I cannot censure her; and you, , dear child, for whose sake she has borneso much, should pause, before you judge , her harshly.’ j •God foi bid that I should! But oh tuncle ! it seems tn me something dreadful, (sacrilegious to het over before a multitude j of strangers those mournful miserable ,events, that ought to bo kept sacred. The thought of being present, is very painful to | me.']' None but Gen. Lanrance and his son will dream that it is more than a mere , romance. Notie but they can possiblyrecognize tlio scenes, nnd the audience can- , not’snspect that Minnie js acting her own (history. When a suit is instituted, it willprobably result in a recognition of the marriage, and thereupon a large alimonyMill be ginuted to your mother, who will at once apply fi>r a divorce. In tho pre- j sent condition of thsir financial affairs this ]cannot fail to beggar the Lnurancos, fi>r I hud a cable dripatcli this morning from Mr. I'ldma, intimating that thsstoc1; panic hadgrievously crippled several of Gen. Lnti- rances liest investments. This news will bo d'-liglitful to Minnie, but I see it dis­tresses you. Now Regina—regnant, listen to me. Whether you wish it or not. she jivill establish her claim, nnd she is right iudoing so. Now I wish to make n contract with you. Keep qniet, and if wofind that the Lanrnuces will really bo reduced to want, I will supply you with the funds necessary to provide a com­fortable homo for them, and shall give it to your father and little Maud. Minnie must not know of the matter, shewould never forgive us, nnd neither can I consent that your father should consider me ns his friend. But all that I have, mysweet girl, is yonre, nnd Laurance may feel indebted to his own repudiated childfor the gift. Is it a bargain ?’• Oh Uncle Orme ! How good and gen­ erous you are ? No wonder my heartwarmed to you the first time I ever saw you 1 How I love and thank you 1 My own noble uncle 1 Yon have no idea howearnestly I long for tho time when you and mother and I can settle down, some­ where, shut out from the world.that hasused us so badly,—and safe in our love, and confidence for, aud iu eaehkither.*She had thrown her arms around bisneck, and pressing her head against bis shoulder, looked at him with eyes full of hope and happiness.'

Y'ou love Minnio aud me very much, I daresay, until tomelover steal* between us and lures you away.' Sbo hid her oonntenance against hisshoulder, and her words impressed him assingularly solemn and mournful. * I shall have no lover.

My hope of happiness centres in the one wordHoma I Wo all three have felt the bitter want of one, and I' deeire to make oursthat serene, holy, ideal Home, of which I have so long dreamed : "We will bear our Penates with ns ; their atrium—the beait.

Ha fell her grow cold, nnd in reply, shemerely pressed his fingers.' When I hold the curtain slightly aside, look into the second box immediately oppo­ site, where two gentlemen are sitting.They are your father and grandfather.' She leaned and looked, and how eagerly,how yearningly her eyes dwelt upon the handsome face, which still closely resem­ bled tho Cuthbert of College days, and theambrotype she had studied so carefully since her arfival in Paris.As she watched, her breathing became rapid, labored, her eyes filled, her face quivered uncontrollably, and she half rosefrom her scat, but Mr. Chesley held her back, and dropped the curtain. ‘ Oh uncle 1 How handsome, how refin­ed, bow noble-looking I Poor darling mother I how could she help giving himher l^eart ? In all my dreams and fancies, I never even hoped to find him such a man ! My father, my father I’She trembled so violently, that Mr. Chcs- loy said hastily: ‘ Compose yourself, or I shall be forcedto take you home, and your mother will be displeased ; for she particularly* desired that I would watch the effect of tho play onthose two meh opposite.' She loaned back, shut her eyes, andbravely endea voted to conquer her agitation, nnd luckily at this moment, the stage cur­ tain rose.By tho aid of photographs procured in America, and by dint of personal super­ vision and suggestions, Mra. Orme had sue-cosr fully nrra nged tho exact reproduction of certain localities; tho college, tho cam­ pus, the humble cottage of old Mrs. Ches­ley with its peculiar porch, whose column caps wero carved to represent dogs’ beads, the interior of a hospital, of as orphanasylum, and of tho library at tho Parson­ age. Leaning far back iu her chair, a proj* to gloomy and indescribably bitter reflections,as ho accustomed himself to tho contem­ plation ot tho fact that the beautiful wo­ man in whom bis own fickle waywardheart had become earnestly interested, would soil herself to the gray-lioarded manbeside him, Cuthbert gnawed his silkymoustache ; while his father watched with feverish impatience for the opening of theplay, and the sight of his enchantress. Tho curtain rose upon a group sitting unon a sward, before ths cottage door.Miunio Merlo in tho costumo of a very young girl, with her golden hair all hidden under a thick wig of dark curling locks,that straggled in childish disorder nruiiud her n»ck and shouldorx, while her sun-bon­net, the veritable groin nnd white ginghamof other Jays, lay nt her feet. Beside her a tall yonih—who represented Peleg Peter­son, in the garb of a carpenter, with a tool­ box on the ground, and in his hands a wooden doll, which ho was carving for thschild.In tho door of tho cottage sat tho grand­ mother knitting and nodding, with whitehair shining under her snowy cap border ;and while tho carpenter carved anil whistled an old-fashioned ditty, ‘Meet me by moon­ light alone,’ the girl in a quavering voiceattempted to accompany him. Minnie sat with her countenance turnedfully to tho audience, and when CuthbortLa trance's eyes full on tho cottage front,— nnd up mi the faoo under that cloud of <1 «rkelfish locks.—he caught hi* breath, and hi* eyes seemed almost starting from their sockets. His hands fell heavily <>n his fath­er's knee, and ho groaned audibly. Gen. L .tiranco turned and whispered : • For God's sake—what is tho matter ?Are yon ill ?’ There was no answer from the son, whotightened his clutch upon the oi l man'sknee, and watched breathlessly what was passing on thest ige.Tho scene was shifted, nnd now the whole f.icado of the college rose before him,with a picture in the foreground ; a tall handsome student, leaning against the trunk'of an ancient ehn. and talking to the | girl who sat on the turi, with a basket offreshly ironed shirts resting on the grass beside hor. The identical straw hat, winchCuthbert bad left behind him when sum­moned home, was upon tho student's head, aud as the timid shrinking girl glanced upshyly nt tier companion, Cuthbert Launiuco almost hissed tn his father's ear:• Great God I It is Minnie herself!’General Lauranco loosened tho curtain next tho audience, and as tho folds swept down, concealing somewhat tho figure ofhis son, he whispered : ' What do you mean ? Aro yon drankor mad ?'Cuthbert grasped his father’s hand, and murmured:‘ Don't j'ou know tho college ? This is Minnie yonder I' • Minnie ? My son what aib you ? Gohome, you are ill.' • I tell yon that it is Minnie Merle, so surely as there is a God afwivo us. Mrs.Orme—is Minnie—my Minnie 1 My wife ! She bos dramatized her own life I' ‘ Impossible, Cuthbert I You aro delir­ious, insane, You aro*—— • That woman yonder is my wife! Now I understand why such sweet memoriesthrilled mo when I saw her first in ‘Amy Robsart.’ The golden hair disguised her. Oh father 1* Tho blank dismay in Gen. Lanrance'ecountenance was succeeded by an expres­ sion of dread, as ho looked from bis son's blanched convulsed face, to that of tho ac­tress under the arching elms of the cam­ pus, tho horrible truth flashed upon him, like a lurid glimpse of Hades. Re strackbis hand against his forehead and his grizzled head sank on his bosom. All thatbad formerly perplexed him was hideously ! apparent, staningly clear ; aud he saw thoabyss to which she bad lured him, aud uu- ' derstood the motives that had promptedher. j After some moments he pushed bis seat beyond tho range of observation from theaudience, and beckoned bis sou to followhis example, bat Cuthbert stood leaning ’upon the back of his chair, with eyes 1 . riveted on the play. ’ The courtship, the clandestine meetings, ' ths interview in which Peleg itftruJe.lupon the lovers, the revelation to the grandmother, were accurately delineated,1 and in each scene the girl grew taller, bysome arrangement of the skirta, which > were at first very short, while she appeared1 in a sitting pasture. When the secret marriage was decided upon, and the paity left the cottage bynight, Cuthbert turned, rested one hand on bis father's shoulder, and as tho scene changed to the quiet Parsonage, he prouedheavily and muttered I ‘ Evon the very dress that she wore thatday 1 And—■there is the black agate 1 On her baud where [ put it I Don't you knowit? How she turns it I’ In tho tableau of the marriage cere­ mony, she had taken her position with re­ference to tie* locality of the box, and ae near it as possible, aud in tho glare of thefootlights, tho ring was clearly revealed.Inking bis lorgnettes Gen. Lauranco in­ spected tile white hand he had once kissedso rapturously, and by the aid of the lenses, he recognized the costly ring, thevalued heirloom for tho recovery of which bo bad offered five bundrod dollars. Had be still ch*nah«d a shadowy hope thatCuthbert was suffering from some ■ fearful dslueieu. tbs eight o< that aingnlar andfaial ring ntferlv overthrew tbs last linger­ ing veotego of doubt. Stunned, mteorabhi, dimly foreboding oouao ovorwbolaMng dte-nosteweoiU, bo sat in stony etillnooe, know­ ing that this was but th* prelude to somadire catastrophe. Whoa tfe telegram arrived and th* young buefend took bte tertde in his arms,tb* gtriiafa fam was lifted, and the paarion- ate Rteam of tfe dilating brows eyes sen*. and sou. Vowing to return very soon andclaim her, the husband tore himself away, and as he vanished through a sidedoor near the box, Minnie followed,stretched out her arms, and looking up full at its two tenants, she breathed her wildpassionate prayer which raug with indescriule pathos throughout the vast building: • My husband I My husbaud—do not,forsake me!’ Cuthbert put his hand over Ills eyes,and but for the voices on the stage, his shuddering groan would have been heard outside tho box. In the scene wherePelog’s advances were indignantly re­ pulsed, and liia threats to unleash thobloodhounds of slander, hunting her toiufnmy, wero full, developed, Cuthbert seemed to rouse himself from bis stupor,nnd a diffoteut expression crossed his fea­tures. Skilfully tho part ployed by Gon. Lnur-ance in bribing P«leg, and" returning the letters of the wretched wife, tho disgracefulthroats, the offer to buy up and cancol hor conjugal claims wero all presented. When tho grandmother departed, andtho cbild-wifo secretly made her way to New York, serting service that would secure her broad and still hopeful of horhusband’s ratiirn, Cuthbert grasped his fathers arm and hissed in his ear :• You deceived mo I You told mo sho went with that villain to California to hideher disgrace I’ Cowed and powerless, the old man sat, recognizing tho faithful portraiture of his own dark schemes in those early days oftho trouble, and growing numb with a vague prophetic dread that till foundationsof tho world wero crumbling away. His son suddenly drew bis chair a little forward nnd sat down, his elbow on hisknee, his bend on his hand ; his gnzo fixed on the woman, who bad contrived to re­ produce even the full, that caused her re­moval to tho hospital. Tho ensuing scene represented tho young mother, sitting on a cot in tho hospital,with a bnbo lying across her kneo, and tho storm of horror, hale, and defiance with which she spurned Peleg from her, callingon heaven to defend her nnd her baby, nnd denouncing tho treachery of Gen. Laur- aneo who ha I bribed Peterson to insultam! defame her. As ho was dragged from tho department, vowing that neither slio nor her childshould be permitted to enjoy the name to which they ware entitled, tho feeble woman, shorn of her brown locks, nnd wearing a close cap, lifted her infant andwith streaming eyes implored heaven to defend it and its hapless mother from cruel persecution.In tJio wonderful power with'which she proclaimed her deathless loyalty to tho busband of her lovo, and her convictionthat God would interpose to shield his helpless child, the audience recognized thofervor and pathos of the rendition, and theapplause that greeted her, as she bowed sobbing over her baby,—told how thehearts of her hearers thrilled. Tho curtain fell, aud Cuthbert's oyos, gleaming like steel, turned to bis father'scountenance. • Is that true ? Dure you deny it ?’ Tho old man only star»J blankly at thecarpet on tho floor, nnd his son’s fingers closed like a vice around his arm. ' You have practised an infernal irnpos-tuio upon me ! Yon told mn sho followed him, and that the child was his.'' He said so.' Gen. Laurauco's voice was husky, nnd a grey hue had settled upon hi* features. • Yon paid him to proclaim that base—falsehood 1 You whom I trusted so fully. Father—where is toy child ?'No answer ; and the curtain rose on thofair young mother who earn* forward with her golden hair in full splandur.Involuntarily tho ntidu-nco testified their lecoguition of tho beautiful actress who now appeared for tho first time, looking nswhen she inndo hor debut, lung ago in young child dinging to her finger, toltcr-iug at her side, as she guided its steps, and hushed it iu her arms many mothersamong the spectator felt the tears rush totheir eyes. Walking with the infant crnd’.rd an her bosom, she passed twice across the stage,then paused beneath the box and tuurmur- el :• Papa's Laby — Papa's own preciousbaby !' and her splendid eyes hmm I with | tears locked—full, straight—into those ofher husband. It was the first time tliov had met dur­ ing tho evening, aud somethin,’ die snw in ;that quivering luce—m.ido bor heart ache t with the old numbing agony. Cuthbert 1 could scarcely restrain himself from leaping (down upon the stag**, and clasping her iu his arms ; but she moved away, and tho ) sorely smitten busbnnd bowed bis taco in 1his hand, luckily shielded from public view j by th? position iu which lie sat.Too dinner scene ensued, and the abrupt 1announcement of iho second marriage. The anguish and despair of the repudiated < wife wore portrayed, with a vividness, amarvellous eloquence, nnd passionate 1 fervor which surpassed all former exhibi­tions of her genius, nnd the people rose andapplauded, as audiences sometimes do, when a magnetic wave rolls from the heartand brain on the stage to those of the 1men and women who watch and listen, completely tn rapport. The life of the actress hogan, the straggleto provide for b*r child, the constant care to elude discovery, the application for legal advice, the statement of her helpless,new, the attempt to securo the licence; all were represented, nnd at last the meeting with her husband iu a theatre. Gradually the pathos melted away, shewas ths stern relentless outraged wife, in­ tent only upon revenge. She spared not even the interview in which the faithlesshusband sought her presence ; nnd as Cuthbert watched her, repealing the sen­ tences that bad so galled his pride, be askedhimself how tie Lnd failed to recognize his own wife ? tn the meeting with the child of the second marriage, her wild exultation, her impassioned invocation of Nemesis, was one of the most effective passages iu thedrama ; and it caused a shiver like a, ser­ pent to- creep over the body of the hither, who pitied so tenderly his afflicted Maud.As the scheme of saving her own daugh­ ter, by sacrificing herself inn nominal mar­ riage with the man she bated and loathedso intensely, developed itself, a perceptible chill fell upon the audience ; the unnatur­ al ness of the crime assorted itself.While she rendered almost literally, the interviews at Puzzuoli. and at Naples, Cuthbert glanced at his father, and saw apurplish flush steeling from neck to fore­ head, but the old man's eyes never quitted the floor. He seemed incapable of moving,gorgonized by the beautiful Medusa whose invectives against him were ec*thing, ter­ rible. > As the play approached its close, and the preparation for the marriage, even thedetails of the settlement were qnrrated, suspense reached its acme. Then earns the ;letters of reprieve, the delivereuc* from thebondage of Paterson's vindictive malice, the . power of establishing her claim, and whenebe wept her tbansgiving tor salvation,many wept iu sympathy; while Regina. . bone away in breathless admiration of1 her mother’s wendartul genius, sobbed un- , rostrainedly. When the letters < f Peterson, and of the ■ lawyer were read, mapping the line ofI prosecution far the recovery of the wife’s 1 rights, the father slowly raised his eyes, 1 and looking drearily at hie son, muttered :1 * It M all over with no, Cuthbert. She 1 bu won, ws are rained- Let us go t borne.’He attempted to rise, but with a glare of mmgled wrath and ecorn, fate sou held him book.The llwt mmm was naohed; th* triumph­ ant viadieatioa of wife and child, the con­demnation o( the two who had oouspired to defraud th*m, the foroolo-ure of th*miartgagwe, the perury of lb* proud aristo­ crats. and Ua disgrace that ororwhelmei .fem.Finally th* second wife and affiieted cluW I cam* to crav* l«m*ucy. and th* busband with a malediction upon tho house that 1 caused hor wretchedness, the broken-bean- Ied woman retreated to the palatial home |she had nt last secured, and under its upas < shadow died in the arms of her daughter. ’ i Her play contained many passages which Inffosded her scope for the manifestntiou of iher extraordinary power, and at its close* tho people would not depart until she hod ;appeared in acknowledgement of their < plumlits. | Brilliantly beautiful she looked, with theglittering light of triumph in her largo I mesmeric oyes, a rich glow mantling her (cheeks, nnd rougeing her lips; while in i heavy folds tho black velvet robe swept I around her queenly figure. How stately, <elegant, unapproachable she seemed, to tho i man who loaned forward, gazing with all ihis heart in his eyes, upon tho wife of his youth, tho only woman ho had over really (loved ; now his most implacable foe. jTho audience dispersed, and Cuthbert and his father sat like those old Roman Senators, awaiting tho breaking ol thowave of snvago vengeance that was rolling in upon them.At length Gen. Lnnraneo struggled to his feet, and mechanically quitted the theatre, I followed by his son. Reaching the carriage,they entered, nnd Cuthbert ordered the | coachman to drive to Mrs. Orme’s hotel.'Not now! For God's sake—not to-night,’groaned the old man, • To-night, before another hour, this aw­ful imposture must bo confessed, aud reparation offered. I sinned against Minnio, but not prcmcditatedly. Y’ou deceived me.You mado mo believe her the foul, guilty thing you wished her. You interceptedher letters, you never let me know thut Ihad a child neglected and forsaken—and father, God may forgive yon, but I never can. My proud, lovely Minnio ! My ownwifeT Cuthbert buried his face in his hands, nnd his strong frame shook us ho picturedwhat bo might have been, contrasting it with tho hideous reality of bis loveless andmiserable marriage, with tho banker'sdaughter who threatened him with social disgrace.During that drive Gen. Lauranco felt ;that ho was approaching some offended and avenging Fury, that ho was driftingdown to ruin, powerless to lift his band nnd stay rven for nn instant tho fetal dssccnt ; that ho was gradually petrifying,and things seemed vague uml iutaugiblc.When they reached the hotel, they were ushered into the snlou, already brilliantlylighted as if in expectation of their arrival. {Cuthbert paced the fluor; bis father sank , into a chair, his bend reeling on the top of , bis caue. |Aft-.r n little while, the silk curtain nt stho lower eud of tho room was lifted, nnd ; Mrs. Orme camo slowly forward. HuWher lustrous eyes gleamed as sbo stood in ' the centre of the apartment, scorn, triumph, 1 hate, nil struggling for mastery in her beau- 1tiful face. ‘ Gentlemen, you have read the hand- ] writing on the wall. Do you come for ]defiance or capitulation. Gen. Lauranco lifted his head, but in­stantly dropped it on his bosom ; he seemedto hove nged suddenly, prematurely. Cuth­ bert advanced, stood close besido thewoman whoso gaze intensified as ho drew (near her, and suid brokenly ; ' Minnie I come merely to exoncrato my­self before God nnd man. Heaven is my witness that I never knew I had n child in America, until to-night, that until to-night1 believed you were in California living as the wife of that base vidian Peterson, whowrote, announcing himself your acceptedlover. From the dny I kissed you good­ bye—at the cottage, I never received a line,a word, a nnsrago from you. When Idoubted my father’s and I’etersou’s state­ ments concerning you, nu<l wrote, two let- 1 ters, ouo to tho President of the college, ouo to a residont professor, seeking some iuiormntiou of your whereabouts, iu order ,al least to visit you once more, when 1 be­ came twenty-one, both answered me that you had f Tfcitcd your name, had beenforsaken by your grandmother, nnd had gone away from the village aecoiu- piuied by Peterson, who was regardedns your favored lover. 1 ceased to doubt, | I believed you false. I know no better until to-night. Father, my honor demandsthat tho truth bo spoken at last. Wdl you corroborate my statement Palo and proud, he stood erect, and shesaw that a consciousnete of rectitude at least in purpose, sustained him.• Mrs. Orme '------began Gen. L wrance.'

Minnio Lauranco I’Slio laughed derisively, and held up her fair slender band, exhibiting tho black ngato with its grinning skull lighted by theglow of tho largo radiant diamonds. ‘ Minnio- I never dreamed you were bis wife,—oh my God 1 how horrible it all is !’He seemed bewildered, and bis son ex­ claimed : • Who is responsible for the separationfrem my wife ? You father, or 1 ? • I'did it, my son. I meant it for the best. I naturally believed you had beenentrapped into a shameful alliance, and us any . tn i futilCT would have done, 1 was ready to credit the unfavorable estimatederived from the man Peterson. Hu told me that Minnie hud belonged to him until she nnd hor grandmnthor conceivedtho sclieiao of inveigling you into a secret marriage; nnd afterward he informed mo of tho birth et his child. I did not payhim to claim it, but when ho pronounced it his, I gave him money to pay tho ex­ penses of the two whom ho claimed to California ; and I supposed until to-nightthat both bad accompanied him. I did not manufacture statements, I only gladly credited them ; and believing all that mantold me, I felt justified in intercepting let-> ters addressed to you by tho woman whom he claimed ns mother of his child.Madam, du not blame Cuthbert. I did it all.' The abject wretchedness of bis mien disconcerted her; r ibbod her of half ofher Biiticipnled triumph. How could she exult in trampling npon n bruised worm which muds no nltorupt to crawl frombeneath her heel ? He sat, tho image of hopeless dejection, his hands crossed on the golihhead of his cane.Mrs. Orme walked to the end of the room, lifted the curtain, and at n signalRegina joined her. Clasping the girl's fingers firmly she led her forward, and when in front of the old man, she ex­ claimed : • Rene Laurance—Wood triumphs over malico, peijury aud bribery; whose is this child ? Is .she Merle, Peterson or Lau­rance ?’ eStanding before them, in a dress of some ' soft snowy shining fabric, neither silk norcrape, with white starry jusmiuss in her raven hair, and upon her bosom, Regina* .seemed some angelie visitant—sent to still * the strife of human passions, eo lovely and , pare was her coloriers face ; and as Gen.'

OneWay to Kil l off Insect *.—A meth­ od of exterminating the insect pest# which feed upon plant# ueeful to man, first sug­ gested by some of the agricultural sooietice of this country, has been brought forward for legislative support in Groat Britain.Most of the vegetable-feeding insect# arerestricted in their food to the kind of plant, aud that plant ie rarely perennial. If, then,it is reasoned, farmer* forboar throughout a wide district lo raise for one year the crop which is annually destroyed by theinsects, the food of the post cannot be found, and next year the crop can be culti­vated with increased profit. Combined action on jto part of tbe farmer* is esaec-tial to tbn^cess of this extermiusting pro­ cess. and hence tbe necessity of a law com­ pelling all within a givan area to de*istfrom producing an infected plant whoa called upon. Fixing for a Big Firk.—Woodstock, regardless of the numerous warnings which she ha* had, is notoriously deficient in proper and efficient fire protection. The Fire Brigade arc indignant at the dillatori- ncs* of th* authorities, and at a recent meeting passed tha following resolution,which was read st ths last meeting of tbo Town Council;—“Moved by Geo.Clarkson,seconded by D Ji^ld MoA tan, and resolved, that where** we, the officers and members of the Fire Brigade of tho Town of Wood-stock, have at various times brought before Council, by petition and otherwise, the in­ efficient aud nearly useless condition ofmost of tbo apparatus in our custody, and that honorable body ha* seen proper to refuse to grant ue the necessary appliancesto enable us to' work at fire* wilh success and to render the service attractive, and in view of the great falling off in member­ship consequent upon the prevent state of things, this Brigade views with regret theposition the Brigade is placed in and un­ less aa effort to supply tho necessary appa­ ratus is made at once, it will be impossiblefor the Brigade to exist as a whole.

As you hav# decided thdt I am a , jolly good fallow, I will try and mako it appear that I am one, allhough, ou tho evo of leaving you I do not foil quite a* jo’.ly ; about it as you might suppose. During tho short stay I huvo made hero there have been many ploasaut associations with which I hove been surrounded which I regret most exceedingly to have to sever. On coming hero in December, 1874, I en­ tered upon my duties with many misgiv­ ing,. Many of those duties w#ro of a very unpleasant nature, upon which it is un­ necessary to onfarg* at th# present tim-«, but I wa* much pleased with the manner in which you recevod mi, and it cornea from tho bifart when !• say that I am leaving Ingersoll with groat regret. I have spent may pleasant hours here, aud al- thouglrour duties as banker arc not always the ifiost agreeable you have made those dpiics as pleasant as possible by romeraber- ing that the managers of banks are nn (er the orders of tho powers that bo at headquar­ ters, and although my conduct may attimes have appeared to be harsh it was necessarily so in obodionce to orders. The banks very ofton know what is best far acommunity and they have to bo in a m>-a- snro restrictive in their policy for the gene­ral good. The depression of the country lately has been iu »nmi degree d ie to wild banking business. But ho was not goingto sermonize on this occasion. The chiir-' man had spoken of mo in a kindly manner aad of my <l»parlnr<> from amongst yon a«a resident. I shall ; 1 vays be glad to thi, k of this place a* tin light p’-nclty little town < f Ingersoll, nnd if yon are conservative1 in your business principles you wi’l no doubt prosper. My future duties with the hank will no doubt entail many visits to1 IngerRell and I shall always bo pleased to return to it. far I have spent innny very pleasant evenings here and shall look for­ward to doing so again. I like such a town as this. It da«>s not matter wlfalber or not yonr coat is of orthodox ent «r yourhat of tho latest stylo you can moot n friend nn l engage in Luriuess or pie’sure with him without ceremony. His familyalso regretted leaving Ingersoll for manv reason*. He said, however, that wo shouldfind hi* successor, Mr. Miller, a goodsqnaro business man nnd a thorough bank«r.
