A Brant Fanner See
in England.
T Ae Lady Visits Brantford.
Discovered.
A widower, who resides itt what part
of .Brant we shall not preeisely state,
sailed foi• England about hree years
ago, as he himself styled i, "to visit
- the scenes of his boyhood and regale
himself amoag his friends aiid acquaint-
ances there," but popular report de-
clared that he had gone to that coun-
try in quest of a wife, and this really
proved te be the truth. After a some-
what sto nay voyage, in early autumn
he lande at Liverpool, and was soon
aro.ong his relatives in his nativeparish.
Once there he representedi himself as
being a wealthy land owner, or, in other
words, 4' a gentleraan farmer from
Canada." This self -appropriated cog-
nomen, together with a cl sely fitting
suit of Superfine black cl

at least two year*. This Wa a serious
blo-w to the well concocted plans of the
wealthy`Canadian, but there being no
alternative, he calmly submitted to the
force of j circumstances. Although he
carefully, 'concealed the fact from every
one, he had with him but a limited

the gentleman returnedto his adopt°

kept up between the parties, when ou

The truth being he did not want th

for a lady to travel so far alone on the
railway cars. Something in. the tone of
the letter and the strange request
caused, for. the first time, a feeling of
suspicion to Cross thelady's mind. So,
without cOmPlying with the request,
she sat -sail for Canada at once, deter-
mined to know the worst. After a
comparatively short voyage, she landed
at the ancient capital, then got on board
the railway cars, and in due course
reached her destination, a flourishing
hamlet in this county. Here she be-
gan. to make enquiries regarding the
hero of mill tale, and was exceedingly
surprised to hear that he was the father
of a large family of grown up children
and the owner of a small farm incum-
bered with a heavy mortgage. Desiring

FEMININE CURIOSITY,
However, she employed her informant
to drive her out in the country that she
might see the gentleman's estate, the
value of which be had frequently boast-
ed, when in the old country. But
whenthe unsightly log house and the
kindred surroundings were pointed out
to'her as the mansion and possessions
of her intended husband she, for the
first time realized the true depths of
the deception which had been practised
on. her. And when she recognized the
gentleman himself, clad in a blouse aud
overalls, engaged in the rather un °-
mantic occupation of
DRESSING A DEAD Ione
which was suspended by the hind. r
legs to a polo near the house, her dis-
gest was complete, and turning awcy
sie requested the man to chive h r
back to thea-ailway Ptotion. She then
took the first train for Brae tford, aad

her departure astonished her friends ill

and when they heard her stofy they all

to a child long before it is, itself 6,b1e to
a 'culate ; but soon after it , is able to
articu1ate the faculty of abstracting
qualities and classifying objects by the
aid of signs begins its course of deVel-
opment. Thus, tor instance, I have
lately seen a child !who belongs to one
of the best living ohservers, and who is
just beginning tol speak: This child
called a duck quack," and by special
association it also called the water
"quack." By an' appreciation of the
resembla.nce of qualities, it next extend-
ed the term " quack " to denote all
birds and insects on the one hand, and
all fluid substances on the other. Last-
ly, by a still more delicate appreciation
of resemblance, the child eventually
called all coins "quack," because on
the back of a French sou it had once
seen the representation of an eagle.
Hence to this child the sign " quack,"
from having originally had a very
specialized meaning, became more and
more extended in its signification, until
it now serves to designate such appar-
ently different objects as "fly," "wine,"
and "shilling." And, as in this pro-
cess we have the initiation of the , logic
of signs, so we have in it the potenti-
ality of the most abstract thought. Ac-
cordingly, soon after a child begins to
speak, we find that reason of a proper-
ly human kind begins to be developed.
—The Nineteenth Century. ,
The Tailors at -the Haymarket.
The drollest disturbance that ever
took place within the walls of a theatre
happened at the Haymarket in 1805.
Years previous, Foote had produced a
that house a burlesque piece, the autho
of which was never known, entitled
g "The Tailors; or, a Tragedy for Warm
Weather." The satire of the piece gave
great umbrage to the craft after which
it was called. In the year above named
Dowton announced its revival for his
benefit. The bills were scarcely issued
when he received a letter requesting
him to change the play, as it was highly'
er offensive to the trade, and promisine if
'he would do so he should be aseured of
ti, full house. Dowton took no notice of
this communication, upon which the
knights of the needle waxed wroth,
called a meeting, and swore they would
oppose him With might and main.
Menacing epistles now ponred in upon
him, in which he Was informed that
17,000 tailors would attend the theatre
to hoot down the play. One who sid.
ene
t himself " Death" wrote to the proprie-
' tors to say that L0,0O0 more could be
nausteredif neceseary. Dowton laughed
g at these threats, and persisted in his
prograinnae. But when the night came
s he Soon discovered they were not idle
e ones. The brotherhood had contrived
e- to monopolize not only every seat in the
t gallery save two, but total every ether
• part of the house. DoWton's appear -
e ance waa the signal for the uproar to
v begin ; a pair of shears were thrown at
_, him; he offered £20 to any persomwhe
,
would point out the man who threw
✓ them. His offer, was received with a
d
yell. and. a shower of other missiles,
y Not a word would the andience listen
• to ; in vain did he now offer to change
_ the piece to The Village Lawyer ;"
t they would .accept no compromise, and
the uproar within was echoed by a
crowd without who could not gain ad-
mittance. The riot now became so vio-
lent that it was necessary to send for a
magistrate and a force of constables ;
these were powerless against the im-
mense number of the rioters. This vic-
tory over the law rendered them more
„daring :and furious than ever; fears be-
- gan to be entertained for the safety of
the building and the, lives of the actors.
A troop of Life Guards was sent for;
this "quickly settled /th matter; there
was a general stampede but not before
16 had been captured in their flight.—

With regarc'b to children, it is to be ex-

is, as it were, a condensed epitome of
the order in ,which these faculties were

Fashionable Slang '31 England.
The fashionable slang now in use in
England has received; attention from
Mr. Charles Mackay, in a recent num-
her of Social Notes. He says: _
"Two words derived:from the stables
are constantly heard. from the mouths of
men who may have studied. at Oxford
or Ca abridge, who may :_iold commis-
sions in the army or uavy, or be high in.
the civil service of the Crown, or who
may 4therwise rank honorably in the
estim laden of the world and of society.
These words are 'groom' and 'form.' A
fashionable newspaper, nt ted for its ex-
cellent carricatures of the notables of
the day, writes of a lady whose name
shall not be repeated, " S le is fair and
Plendid, and has a profusion of hair
vhict she grooms in the olainest wav,
at fringe." Look :Lt that little

how nicely she is groomed.' ' Form '
