"That boy will break my heart ?" was the Vassionate exclamation of a restiect- able-looking woman'as, with an'atopeal- ing look, she, address,..._DA a strange gentle-, mel), Who passed by at the time. A large, overgrown boy, of more than lb years, had leaped over a fenee the moment be- fore, an& now. feeling himself beyond herreachstood laughing defiantly at his mother, who had undertaken to re- prove bun for sonae mean 'eonduot. With- out making reply, the stranger turned a severe loox upon the boy, which had the effect of cheeking his , mirth, and changing his color a little, and then ad- vancing to the rails and resting his arms upon them, related the following story, which might have been profitable to both his hearers:, i , "There is, perhaps, nothing more painful than to see children, and especial- ly large boys who ought to know better, uncivil and. disrespectful to their super- iors, but particularly so to their parents. When. I was a by myself, I regret to say, I fell i,uto the very same sad fault, for4 which I was not alone blameworthy: I was considered remarkably smart for my ye.ars, and my singularly wise say- ings and doings delighted admiring friends. I suppose I was looked upon by my parents as a young Solomon. They generally brought me into the par- lor for the express purpose of entertain- ing company. But I remember that I was wise enough to understand and mark well all the praises they heaped upon me. All my wisdom was gathered from my fiiends, and yet they gave me credit for originality in everything I said or did. By these aids I soon discovered my great importance, and this made me very impertioeut-a pest and a scourge to my parents. , "When I -had grown up to the age at which I ought to have been a pleasure to them, I was di obedient and sadly' dis- respectful. Wien I think of the irre- verance I was uilty of, and which they -tolerated in me 'for a moment, I felt to this day crimson witItahame. And if I -thought it could make amends ,for my youthful vile ess, I should like to under- goif now the fl ggings which I ought to have received then. 1 was permitted to call my father such slang names as 'governor,' 'the boss,' 'the old man,' 'John,' and, Such like, to his very face, and he heard. it good-naturedly and laughed. That most sacred of all names mother, was seldom applied to her -who loved me more than any other human being; I usually called her 'the old wo- man;' or 'Marr,' humorously, of course, and thought it looked well. "This bad training showed. on me everywhere else. At school, the teacher Waa. a firm man, a first-class disciplinar- ian,.ancl kept me in thy plaee well; but I disliked liam for what I styled his se- verity, and- behaved as disrespectfully and disobediently as I well dared. I was afraid of an open conflict with him, knowing that, in thatcase'I must have fared poorly. In secret, however, I did what I could to disaffect the other schol- ars and make them disrespectful. In this I succeeded admirably, especially among the larger boys. We could all plot mischief against him and, .,sneer at him behind his back. His rebuke made us angry and revengeful, and we con- soled oaraelves with the hope of paying him for it when we grew np. In the meantime we enjoyed. -ourselves delight- fully in making game of him, much to, the entertainment :of the scholars gen- erally. I was the piime mown- in these annoyances, and it never occurred to my mind that my heartless- conduct could, receive a sudden and unexpected check. "On one occasion he reproved me. Thinking myself master of the situation; I tossed my head in defiance;,, and sneer- ed contemptuously, looking for 'the ap- proval of my rude companions. But be- fore I had time to think what I was do- ing, the teacher made my ear ring with a blow of his open hand. I staggered a little, but instantly recovering myself, and shrugging my shoulders in contempt, dared him to repeat it. He commanded me to Nave the room; 'glad of the op- portunity, I went, and closing the , door with an impudent farewell, ended my school education. , "In Sunday school I was„even worse. I knew that my teacher had no means of enforcing his • instruction, except by moral suasion, ' I was irreverent; even in, the most sacred things. I turned my pious teacher's instruction into ridicule, to make the others -laugh. More than once I used bad language to his face, and. I ain now convinced that- he was a man of more than ordinary grace, or his tem- percould not ha-ve brooked my conduct for a moment. Yet, strange to say, I riever knew of his having made any ef- fort to obtain my removal out of his class. I think his prayers were answer- ed, however' by my suddenly leaving the place. Iwent to business and was there but a month when iny bad man- ners were directedlowards my employer. He told rae.quietlylthat I might go home to my father; I went. I tried several other places with a similar unhappy re- sult -unhappy for me; happy for my employers. "I had now grown up to be a young man, and knew that I was losing my time, that I could never be worth any in the world. In weeks of de- spondency I had time to reflect. I saw that I had been turned out of school for my insubordination ; that I had been disrespectful to pay Sabbath school teacher, though he desired my 'best in- terests ; that my ill -breeding had turned me out of three or four situations, and prevented me from even occupying oth- ers. _ I next saw that if' 1 ever expected to do well, I must govern my temper, suppress my inenfferable pride, which had developed by -this time into impu- dence and practise obedience and re- spectfulness to my superiors. The dis- grace of having been turned out of sever- al situations, to the certain knowledge of my acquaintances, mortified.me.. To friends I exPlained, when opportunity afforded, that it was not my fault, but that of tyrannical masters ; but no use; they had their own opinion, which was a correct one. My ill fortune had its good effect upon rip. After the exercise of patience and practice of self -culture for a long time I succeeded in obtaining another sitnaticin. When entering npon it, I made up my mind to try better con- duct, aad, be asyespectful as possible to all around me? .1 was able to keep my place this time, and learned that steadi- ness, honesty; and respectfulness to su- periors, were indispensable to a young man's success. "Young man," he continued, "if yon wish ever to prosper in the world, you must begin by obeying the Fourth qom- mandment, which is, 'Honor thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.' If you neglect this, take care that you come not under the 'nurse. which declares that 'The eye that mocketh at his father, and despiseth to 'ohey his nother, the ravens of he Valley shall pick it out, and the Soung eagles shall eat it out.' Y. Observer. - AMOS'S Bookkeeper. We asked Amos how his boy was get. ting on at school. "Pleg take dat boy ; I done tuck him -way from dat school.' "Why; what for ? " "Uh, .oh ! •he wus gittin"mos' too smart down dar wid dat book-larnin'. 'Twon't do fer some niggers ter Ih3 too egikatid. "Why not; Amos ?" . "Well, sah. jess take dat boy, frin- stancp.

Ten Minutes in a ;Police Station. From 10:50to 111P. M. last night three persons entered one of the city police stations, very much under the in- fluence of liquor. The first was a micidle aged clerk -holding a very responsible '.position. His face was flushed, his nose the color of old port and his Ives staring from their sockets. He stated that he had. been robbed of some $40 odd. in his hotel, but was unable to give any information_as to howl he lost it. The second was a little man, about 46 years of age, who staggered in, sat down on a form, made himself perfectly at home and chatted to the officer in quite a pleasant way. He was, at one time, a promising clerk in a bank, but, ere long, was discharged for irregularity at his duties, brought on by excessive drink- ing. He afterwards Bemired a position in a merchant's office, which he was compelled to Nave for the same cause. He became gradually broken down in health, was forsaken by his friends, and as was the case last night, is now not unfrequently compelled to seek a`night's shelter in the police cells. The third was a 'female, who was earried into the station helplessly intoxicated. The mention of "a drink" by one of the con- stables caused her tongue to loosen, and in a thick, shrieky tone, she attempted to convey the information that she had been grieyously assaulted. The "drink" -of ,eold water -offered her by the policeman was, after tasting, rejected, and slie was carried into one of the cells piteously bemoaning her fate. She is the widow of -a very respectable me- chanic, and at the time of his death en- tered the service of a lady in this city, but was discharged for a similar reason for which she was arrested. -.Montreal .Heralct. 1 1 - - Causes of War. A certain king sent to another king, saying, "Send me a blue pig with a black tail, or The other replied. "I have not got one and if I had On this weighty cause they went to war. After they had exhausted their armies andresources;and laid waste their kingdoms, they began to wish to make peace; but before this could be . done it was neceisary that the insulting language that led to the trouble should be explain- ed. "What could you mean," asked the -second king of the first, "by saying, 'Send me a blue pig With a black tail or else "Why," Said the other, "I meant a blue pig with a black -tail, or else some other colOr.. But what could you mean by saying, 'I have not got one, and if I had-?" "Why, of course, if I had I should have sent it." The explanation was satisfactory, and peace was accordingly concluded. The story of the two kings ought to serve as a lesson to us all. Most of the quarrels between individuals are quite as foolish as.the war of the blue pig with a 'black tail. Good. Advice -to Young Men by a Canadian Judge. Mr. Justice Burton, in charging the Grand Jury at the Kent Assizes, spoke as 1011ows on matters interesting to the citizens of London. His Lordship said : * * * VThere is too much reason to fear that the parties concerned in a most aqocious murder eommitted in an adjoining county, remain unconvicted from these causes, the Government officials having appeared upon the scene at a time when it was difficult to obtain reliable evidenbe ; but that case disclos- ed a state of things which is most dis- graceful to *the community in which we live. If crime is to be prevented, the true remedy is to be sought in destroying those infamous dens of iniquity in which it is propagated. Prevention, accerding to the old adage, is better than cure. In the vicinity of London there 'appears to be, with the knowledge of the authori- ties, a brothel of the very worst descrip- tion frequented by persons of both sexes of the most infamous and degraded char- acter. It i& notorious that the female who presides over this pluademonium,has been compelled to leave the city of Lon- - t d don, the suburbs of London the town of Sarnia, and has sought ap- parently a safe resting place in the vil- lage of Petersville, a suburb of London. It is notorious that numerous young men decoyed to this den of iniquity; have lost all sense of self-respect and become out- easts from society, and a more harrow- ing; and at the same time, a more dis- gusting acconnt than was given at the trial by one �f the inmates, a young girl of 19, wasj venture to say, never listen- ed. to in a aurt of justice. This my duty sitting here, with the. knowledge I have tr. thus aaquired, to impeach the "authori- ties of that locality for the ruin of many youths who have been deryed from the path of virtue, for the desolation of many previously happy homes and for the cern- Illif181011 of many a crime. From the en- quiries I have made I atm Convinced that the language I use is not a whit too strong, and I trust that this reference to it may induce the authorities not only tbere, but elsewhere throughout • the Province, to enforce the, suppression of /inch dens of infamy and iniquity, which are sapping- the foundation of society, and breeding ruin and eritile to an extent that it is lamentable to contemplate. If, gentlemen, your own locality suffers from any similar nuisances, I trust you will second my efforts to secure their suppres- sion ; 'Faciles descensus ayerni." You know not how soon one of your own children may be decoyed into these dens where they necessarily associate with the most degraded, and .when a false step is once taken, the return to the paths of virtue is difficult indeed." A New Way of Applying Mus- tard Plaster. A few evenings ago a medical man was called in to attend a patient, and thought it nee.essary to apply a mustard plaster. After having prepared the plaster he laid it en a Chair for a few minutes while he was engaged in compounding some other preparation.' A certain gentleman in the house, feel- ing a little tired, thought be Would take a seat, and not noticing that. the chalF .was already Occupied, sat down on the plaster. Having a light pair of trousers on, the mustard began to exercise its wonderful medicinal powers, Making one portion of his ., unmentionables rather warm; not knowing what was the occa- sion he changed chairs, but the next one was considerably warmer than the first and he made another move at the same time remarking: "1 wonder what is the matter with the chairs, they all seem to be hot 1" Walking about forsa little while and not experiencing any relief, he again seated himself, and still the plaster stuck to hirii like a trusty friend. A few min- utes elapsed and he said: "Doctor, don't you think it is rather close this evening ? I feel very warm." The doctor replied, " No, I don't feel uncomfortable." "Well," he said, "1 must go ont for a minute and get cooled off." But there was rio coolingfor him; the "evening" kept getting warmer, and he couldn't account for it in any way. The doctor changed his mind as re- garded applying the plaster, and forget- ting to put it away, went off without thinking about having left it on the chair and. it was not until 80Mt3 time after his departure that the gentleman discovered that he, in taking a seat, had unwittingly applied the plaster to his corduroys.
