A Dinner of Herbs. iyd Tseur New TSetween eight aud uine o'clock on a fine September morning, a young iuur riej couple stood together at the window of a charming little house pleasantly sits uated at Norwood. The neatly-appointed breakfast equip age had not been removed by the spruce maid servant, but the meal had conclud ed, and the master of the neat little cot tage was about to take his departure by j It ran thus Tlictu accidents u alw; t I'Or-S. 'Oh !"' sobbed poor Mrs. Denwillow, ''I've lost the beat husband my poor Kobcrt! AdiI I was so wicked to him! Oh ! ho !" "Law, no, if you please ma'am, master ain'tkilled. Here's a 'gram as Mr. Hodges said I was to give it to you. It ought to have come an hour and a half nro. but were delayed in the confusion. j Them 'grams always is delayed souac i how," added Ann, soliloquizingly. Lina seized the paper, and tore it open. train for the scene ot his daily labors Robert Dinwillow was only a solicitor's confidential clerk, at a salary of rather loss thru i the much-abused three hundred pounds per annum ; yet he contrived to find life very tolerable on the whole. He was a fine, honest-faced, stalwart person, about thirty two or thre, who loved his Oar LING, Don't he alarmed. Friijht" ful accident at Aeic Cross.

Don't wait dinner " In the iutcusc relief of her heart, Lina sobbed convulsively, and made an iuward vow never to be so petulant and exaticog iu future. In a mood ot mad penitence, .1 cin n n.l ' she sat upon the sofa. Ionian" hosts ot adored his pretty, spoilt, wilful, loving ! good resolutions, until the sound of cab- wife a bright-eyed, petulaut, chirping wheels full joytully on tier ears. little woman, ten years his junior. i The morning was spleudid ; the room i was cheerful, the servant-maid brisk and williug, and the egrs and rashers had been unexceptional, the coffee clear, the rolls crisp, and the butter, really butter. Yet for all that, as she stood amid the flowers in her bay-window herself in white dress and blue ribbons, the most attractive object there there was a sul len pout on Selina Den willow's pretty mouth that was not pleasant to see. "Come, dear, I must go in two min utes." said her husband. "I thiuk I shall be home early to-day. You prom ised me a roast leg of pork, you know "Aud you promised uic that gray moire antique at Swan and Edgar's" retorted the lady, sulkily. "But, Lina, dear, I had r.o notion moires were so expensive. Why, they wanted twenty guineas for it." In two minutes more 'Robert Denwil- low was in the parlor, clasping the peni tent little woman in his arms. 'Oh, Bob, dear, l'am so sorry! Aud I've been so frightened ! I'll never be so cross again : soboea sue. The husband stroked her fair hair ten : derly, but did not reply. He judged it ! better to let her tears have their course. At last he said ' -Well, dear, it's all right now, so let i us go to dinuer." 'Oh those poor people killed ! I could ; not eat any dinner." ! ''Nonsense, there were no people kill j ed ; only a score of broken arms and I legs." j "-Why," exclaimed the little woman, j in surprise, "Ann told me there were J seventeen persons killed." ! Robert Denwillow laughed, j 'These sort of things are always gross ly exaggerated," he said. "But come, I dinner odd : 1 dim t perceive "Well ! "Whv. it is the twelfth part of ; want my our whole year's income." ; the onions. "Bat if "it was to please me?" j "Oh, B-b, dear! sighed his wife, Tn rlA vm.

I should soou be iu the Bankruptcy Court." Lina tossed her golden head contempt uously. "Besides, what does my little wife want with such superb fabrics ?"' said her husband, laughing. "No, no, Liua. Leave moires to duchesses. 1 like you best in your white muslin. There, I must go! Give me a kiss, and don't forget the pork. Bye-bye ! You'll be bi tter tem pered when 1 come liou e, poppit." And whistliug cheerily, away hurried ' Robert Dcmvilluw to catch the train to London bridge. Like most of her eex, Lina could have j borne any uppositiiou better thau her husbaud's imperturbable good temper. She was out of humor, and she knew it. : Shc-wautcd to quarrel, and she would quarrel, and she couldn't, because it takes ; two parties to e quarrel, and her husband j had not afforded her the slightest exeu.-e for giving way to her ill-humor. No sooner was he fairly out of. sight than the little woman rang the bell furi ously. "Anu !" "Yes, ma'am.." "When the greengrocer calls, turnips and potatoes." "X es, ma am boiled mutton for diuner, The good fellow winced for a moment, but he comprehended in an instant how matters stood, and said, gently "Well, dearest, a certain grand old Book says, 'Better is a diuner of herbs where love is, than, " Lina kissed him impetuously. i "You are an angel, Robert a good, ' man and I am a weak, silly, wicked ! little thing!" "Not wicked, pet !' "Oh, Robert." she said, earnestly, as : hhc hung around his neck, "bear with me, aud forgive me !" "Forgive you, my darling !" said her husband, returning her caress. "Have we not all need of forbearance and for giveness '!" "Dinner's ready, please sir," cried Ann, euteriug, with a covert smile on her face. "Well, Ann," returned" her master, good -humoredly, and as if boiled mutton were his favorite dish, "I am hungry enough to do credit to your cooking." Little Mrs. Denwillow, with a feeling of intense shame, took her seat at the head of the table. Ann removed the covers. The boiled mutton, sadly over done, was there, it is true ; but opposite her master Anu had placed a splendid ruuiD-stake pie, which she had covered Hchmidt, 2-4 years of age. All of them had already had a ta.ste of Napoleonic humanity as galley slaves at Toulon aud Marseilles. Ou the way to the place of execution they called to citizens yho were looking mournfully on this murderous procession, to come along with them and see how a Prussian officer dies for his Fatherland. Arriving at the place designated for the execution the commanding officer made an effort to read again to the pris oners their sentence of death, but was emphatically interrupted by the priso ners who declared they cared nothing about hearing it. Leopold John then steppod forwarward and in a loud and firm voice exclaimed : "The God of Battles will visit you and your blood teeming Emperor in judgment hereafter: "Not forever will his golden eagle fly on to victory ! Not forever will his star of success shine resplendent, to light him on through blood to glory! No ! There is a fall in store for that eagle, aud a setting in darkness for that star, and here upon our graves one day the ban-, ner of our German Fatherland will wave to the breeze, and the black eagle proud ly rise to shelter our resting place beneath his pinions. Here our jrermaii brethren will one day plant our triumphant flag and with sword in hand drive back your haughty hosts over the Rhine. The time is not far distant when the proud walls of your Paris will tremble and crumble before" Prussian cannons." Tho words coming like the voice of a prophet from the grave, nlade a painful impression upon the soldiery charged with the exe cution. A scrgent advanced to blindfold the prisoners, but was disdainfully mo tioned away by Wedell, who informed him that a Prussian soldier never flinehes while looking an enemy in the face. "You can rob us with life of ajl we poss ess," said Wedell, "butnot of dying as becomes a true Prussian soldier, nor the love wc hold in our hearts for our noble country for which we have offered our life ! fintertaiu no fear that we will trem ble or falter only be sure that your net ves are steady aud that your aim is true." After these words they all embraced each other in a last farewell in life, aud taking oil their cravats bared their brests callm out to the soldiers to make sure ilUU till il X luaantu .-5 uciin. ijuii un our noble country, our German Father land !" rent the air with one voice, and Fleming, throwing up his cap command ed "Fire !" A volley of sixty-six musk ets rattled forth their murderous lead upon them, and ten heroic men were no more. The smoke clearing away display' cd the eleventh man still standing mo tionless as a statue. It was young Wed ell, his right arm shattered by his side. His brother pierced by twelve bullets lj"iug- dead by his side. The command ing Geueral Lamoine stepped forward from the ranks and advancing towards the prisoner said : "Pardon !"' "Pardon !" exclaimed young Wedell, "Pardon ! I ask no pardon sir; a Prussian asks no favors from a Frenchman ! Am I meaner than my comrades here welteriTig in their blood? Cowardly braggarts, I. thought you better marksmen ! Here is my heart shoot like Prussians, and look mo in the eye like men !" A section of twelve men were ordered forward from the reserve. In a firm voice Wedell commanded "Fire" and he had joined his'comradts. And when the butcher calls, a leg of j oyer, to produce the greater effect when mutton-for boiling.". And there was a malicious twinkle iu Mrs. Den willow's eyes. Ann opened hcj mouth with astonish ment. "Lor, ma'am, I thought master said something about roast pork." "Never mind what your master said " "But, ma'am," remonstrated Ann, boldly, "master cau't bear boiled mutton, and I've got the ouious for the stuffing." "Put on your bonnet immediately, Anu," returned her mistress, with stern dignity, "and go to the Italian ware house, and order a bottle of capers." And with a look of dismay Aon van ished. "Oh, my ! ain't she a tartar!" n ut tered she, as she quitted. Mrs. Denwillow watched her servant close the door, and then smiled triumph antly. "There !" exclaimed she, in such a tone as Alexauder the Great might have adopted after a decisive victory ; "there ! think I've doue it now." Five e'clock approached the Deuwil low's usual dinner-hour. The boiling mutton- began to give signs aud tokens of its presence in the house, and Lina'c favorite little dog sniffed the savory odor in the passages, and slobbered anticipating1- "Dear me ! I wish Robert would come," thought little Mrs. Denwillow. "The mutton will be boiled to rags." A quarter past five half past but uo master ot the bouse grew exceedingly angry. "How dare he tease "me she asked herself. - It must be owned that there is nothing in all the world so trying as waiting for an cxpecteTl person who does not come ; and she had this additional incen tive to anger, that she had intended to play her husband a trick, and it seemed - as if he were turning the tables on her. She thought of serving up dinner she was fond of boiled mutton but then she would iose her anticipated laugh ; and besides, ber wifely instincts revolted from such a piece of selfishness as" that. Six half past nearly seven, and no Robert Denwillow ! The little woman's anger had all gone. She was now serious ly alarmed. TLrice had she descended to the kitchen, to confer with Ann, each time less angrily and more anxiously, and she was already thinking of paying her . servant another x'mt, when Ann herself, with a hasty and unceremonious knock, entered the parlor. The girl looked flur ried and alarmed. ; "Oh, if you please, ma'am, you're not to be frightened, but Mr. Hodges, the station-master, has sent up "to say as there's a accident on the Hue !" "What?" screamed Lina, pale as death, and with an awful sinking of the heart. , ,S; "A Crystal Palace train bave ran into tfce four thirty, please, ma'am, and sev enteen persons are killed, and many weuaded. It's nearJNew Cross, ma'am. disclosed. Lina cast a grateful glance at her servant, whilst Robert Denwillow said "This is famous ! But how is it, Anu? I thought boiled mutton- " "Well, sir," said Ann, with a gratified emile, and a sly glance at her mistress, "I thought, as master don't like mutton, aud the butcher's boy had a fine steak on his tray, I'd make a pie on my own 'sponsibility." "You have done quite rightly, Ann," said her mistress, "and show good sense." Surely a merrier "diuner of herbs" never was than that, seasoned as it was by a renewal of love and confidence between the married couple. Mrs. Den willow often spoke of it afterwards as the commencement of a long aud happy life. The Execution of the Officers of Schill's Corps. iorincoming. Lima like this?" TRANSLATED FKOM THE FRENCH. The history of the German war for independence irom freneti rule, passes silently by the shameful event took place iu the Fortress of which ccst the lives of eleven a young soldiers as ever breathed, this time but few particulars have which Wcsel, brave Up to come before the public relative to this bloody tragedy. An old veteran of Sehill's Corps, Dr. Purch, Regimental Physician at Potsdam, pcihaps the only noWliving eye- witness of the bloody drama at Wcsel, describes the execution of those young officers as follows : .Early on a dreary Autumn day, Octo ber 16, 1808, orders were received from Napoleon, ordering the immediate exe cution of the eleven youug Prussian members of Sehill's Corps, then held as prisoners of war in the fortress of Wesel. Preparations were immediately made for the carrying into effect the orders re ceived and the execution took place at one o'clock on the same afternoon. Early in the morning the gates leading to the city were closed ; the guard reinforced and orders issued prohibiting all gather ings of citizens iu tho streets. With drums beatiug, a large detachment of troops took up its line of march from the citadel to the place of execution. The vanguard was formed by a troop of mounted men armed with carbines and ready to uake use of their arms at any moment. Following these came a de tachment of grenadiers, and then i-ixty-six cannonicrs for the execution, in whose midst the eleven prisoners marched with firm and steady pace, the irons still on, clashing and grating at every step. Their names were : Leopold Johns, aged 31 years ; Fer dinand Schmidt, 28 years of age ; Fcr dinand'Galle, 27 years af age ; Carl de Wedell, 23 years of age j .Albert de Wedell, 17 years pf . age ; . Adolph de Keller, 24 years of age; Constantino Gobiae, 25 years of age ; . Ernst de Fleming, 25 years of age ; Carl de Kuf fenbrink, 16 years of age; Frederick Felson, 16 years, of age ; Frederick j "It's Seji-ok Tw enty Minutes." i A good story is told of an English judge j visiting a penal institution, aud being j practically disposed, the learned judge philauthropieally trusted himseit on the treadmill, desiring the warden to set it in motion. The machine was according ly adjusted, and his lordship began to lift his feet. In a few minutes, however, the new hand had quite enough of it, and called to be released, but this was uot so easy. "Please, my lord," said the man, "you cau't get off. It's set for twenty minutes; that's the shortest time we can make it go." So the judge was in durance uutil his term expired- Sullivan count3, Ohio, is the home of Estclla Whitcomb, thirteen years of ago, and who for. three years past has for her own choice beeu engaged iu regulir farm work, in plowing, sowing, reaping, mowing aud harrowing, as well as driv ing and managing horses.

Paper The New York Tribune is eclipsing all other journals in the world in the extent and costliness of its European news. It has daily telegrams from the principal European capitals, and these letters it is said cost from 81,500 to $4,000 a day. In comparison our local journalism seems insignificant indeed. The Influence of the luititor. There .eems to be a great consump tion of brain power on the daily journal ism of America. It has been but a few months since intelligence of the sudden death of Henry J. Raymond, ot the New Yotk limes, shocked the reading public of Christendom. It has been but a few days since intelligence of the sudden death .of Charles H. Ray brought person al sorrow to ten thousand hearts, and feelings of profound regret to mauy of his couutrymen iu all portions of the republic. Both of these distinguished journalists died on the sunny side of fifty of over-work of the brain. Mr. Raymond stood at the head of his profession in the East ; Dr. Ray was confessedly its most eminent man in the Interior. The brain of ea.-h suddenly gave way, leaving physical natures which, with animating soul, might have lived vigorously on for years. Nor are these celebrated journalists the only oucs who have suffered similar fate, or to avoid it have abandoned jour nalism for other aud less exacting pur suits. Mr. Raymond, it is well known, prepared about as much matter on one noted day of his editorial life, as would make a volume of Bancroft's History of the United States. This condensation of year's work into days is not infrequent iu editorial life. It is not strange, there fore, that we all unexpectedly hear that the silver ord is loosened aud the pitcher broken at the fountain, aud that the mourners go about the streets, who, only yesterday, rejoiced with those who to day are gone. Meantime, what is the subtle though prodigious power that causes so many of our bet miuds to spend their lives iu productions whose life is like that of the morning dew, that appeareth for a little time and then " vanisheih away ? There are, doubtless, many things which make up this singular power, -this fascination, making newspaper life, to certain active minds, an irresistible charm. The priu cipal cause, however, is to be found, we think, iu the current influence of the editor. Consider the power of that ora tor, ureat aud skillful in his art, who should have an audieuce of fifty thousand or a hundred thousand perscms every day throughout the year. Consider how much greater would be his influence if by some means, these vast audiences could be doubled, trebled, quadrupled, enlarged twenty-fold, by some process for the conveyance of his main arguments to many audiences. Such actually is the influence of the editor of a great newspa per. A journal which has a circulation of twenty-five thousand, will be read by at least a hundred thousand persons. What is the voice of man, uttering even the eloquence of Demosthenes, to this ? But this is not all : The brilliant, ring ing editorials of such a writer as Dr. Ray find their way into journals, and before their power is exhausted, their voice has been heard by vast numbers of persons. Orator has never lived, clerical or lay, who, if he could have had such auditory as this, would not have talked himself to death between spring time and har vest. From an arfirte on the, late Dr. V.
