A pig, so fat that he could hardly move, once lolling indolently in its sty,1 saw a poor, half starved rat, that, with much. timid alertness, stole from its hiding place, and, after seizing one of the many grains of corn that' lay scattered around, quickly escaped with his prize, and with very much the air of a beggar who had_asked for something to eat, and then run away, ashamed to be seen, "You poor creature," grunted the pia, " ijvhat a life you leads half-starved an% half frozen! Behold me, now! Here I am-sa person of consequence,carefully fed and attended to, with every morn- ing fresh sweet straw thrown to me to make my bed soft and. warm. As for you poor creature, it is only at the risk of your life, by constant labor and struggles with your fellow creatures, and. even by beggary, to speak of noth- ing worse, that you can contrive to live at all." "Please to recollect," said th ia rat as he paused. for a moment at the mouth of his hole, when you heap your pity upon me that you receive favors and benefits not on account of the love yelir master bears you, nor on account of your own worthiness, but because of the use he intends making of you when he has fattened you up to his liking. As for me I den't live in constant fear of the butcher knife, and I think it is. likely that I shall keep my place in the world, poor as it is, much longer lhan yon will keep yours." . A Friend in Need.. A gentleman was telling a few day since of a remark that General Grant Made, vihich is a key remark to his character in some respects. A quiet investigation among the leading Repub- licans in Congress had developed a ring of robbers --among the officeholders appointed by President Grant, who had a little system by which they were getting away with • the national funds in an exceeding lively and harmonious manner. All the facts were laid. before Grant, and he pullect his cigar out long enough to remark that he was satisfied with the evidence of their knavery .and would attend to the matter. A. week passed away and the Republicans be- came nervous and. anxious, expecting an explosien in Congress every day through the discovery of the matter by the Democrats. At last they went to the President again, and urged im- mediate action for the sake of the CO Cal try, and the party. "Are -you not satisfied of their rascality?" was asked one day. ° "I am," said Grant, "but those men are friends of mine and appointees of " But you don't propbse to stand by them on that account when you know they are in the wrong ?" said the gentle- man. 'Mr. ," replied Grant slowly pulling out his cigar, "any man can stand by his friend when, he • is right. The test of -true friendship is to stand by his friend when he is wrong." And the "friends" were allowed to resign quietly, one after another, with- out exposure or dishonor. ' Several old timers in the' coint room testified to the bad character o the dead man.

Wieland, auditor of hake comity, Minnesota, writes: " YeSterda,y after- noon, while little August Burr, aged seven years, was playing with his sisters—oue five years old and the other three and one-half—near his father's house, an enormous eagle pounced down upon them, throwing the two girls to the ground. It immediately at- tacked the younger one, grasping one of the child's arms with the claws of one foot, while the claws of the Wiper foot were deeply buried in the child!s fa4e; apd it attempted to carry the child, ff, but was prevented by her struggl s.

Two of my neighbors have dogs of this kind, and they both make very safe and affectionate playmates. One of the collies is owned by a relative, and my children romp and play with it until they are tired.. Appleton's Cyclo- pedia, speaking of the collie dogs, says: "At the head of domestic canines of temperate Europe stands the shepherd. dog; its sagacity, fidelity and courage are not exceeded by those of any species of dogs." I have had:clogs of almo• st every de- scription, and consider them all good. Every large dog has a naturally chival- rous feeling toward little children, but for faithfulness, uniform good temper, patience and beauty, nothing :can ex- cel the English mastiff. I have had one for two years; he has been con- iitantly with the children, and I have never known hin3 to give them a, cross look. I have seen five or six children rolling over him at once, and -he has accepted their -very rough attentions with perfect good nature. When tired of their play- he would simply walk with a stately tread to another part of the room or grounds. Of course, any deg who is to he the companion of chil- dren must be brought up with them. He must be admitted. to the family life, not kept too much outside. ,Even with very small' children the mastiff is desirable, for he seems to realize his ewn strength and size, and to use special caution in approaching them:— Counti-y Gentleman. Stealing a Tombstone. A Remarkable Case in a Nevada COurt. William Beggs was arraigned before justice Cary,' of Carson, yesterday, charged with, grand larceny, in stealing a tornbstone from the cemetery. The tombstone was exhibited to the jury. It reads: , "Saered to the memory of W. Bogg- stdine. Died J'an. 3, 1856. A kind's Boggs acknowledged frankly that be had taken the tombstone. The- uanie on it was so near like his own that, by filling up the -superfluous letters with plaster of paris, he could use it himself itt cs.se hel•died. • ; The CoThrt—You have the appearance of being a veri healthy man. Why do you expect to the? Boggs—I'm going to Bodie to start in business, and— The Court—Oh, I see. But even if you die, as I have no doubt you will, why do you steal another man's tomb- • stone ?" Do you: really think it's the correct thing. s - Boggs—If man has had the use of a tombstone since 1656, it strikes me he's gat his . money's worth. 131eside, this stoue,,was a lie all over.

As a rule, says the Cineinuati Com - meircial, it is not safe to plagiarize ; but to this rule, as to most others, there are exceptions. A minister i; of Western New iYork had been accused of preach- ing heresy, and was brought before the Presbytery to account fo his offences. He asked permission to deliver before the Presbytery a carefu y prepared dis- course in which he woulil set forth the docrineS he held. Permission was given him, and at the appointed time the sermon was delivered. • At its close the members were called epon to pass Judgment -upon it. Some denounced it everal said it contained the rankest heresy, others considered it orthodox, aud a few wisely declined to express an pinion. Before the final vote was t keu the accused was Permitted to r4ia.ke a statement. He told them that t e sermon he had just pi:leached was o ie of Dr. Chalmers', and directed where it . could be found, and rem arised Alter that if they declared him a h retie ou the strength of it, they must d Glare the great Scotch ivine to be one too. Some of the brethren then got mad at the trick played upon them, but all concluded that the proceedings against the accused had better be dropped. Another case of justifiable plagiar- ism was that of an eminent minister who outwitted a brother minister equally eminent. No. 1 entered the church of No. 2 just as he was about to THE HURON EXPOSITOR. announce his text. No. 1 ilried to it near the door, but No. 2 sPiedl him, and invited -him to a. seat inthie pu pit.

So No. 2 removed his sermon from be- tween the leaves of the Bib13, placed it on a little shelf under the lpit, and took a seat in the cengregat n;Jo en- joy his friend's sermon. 1, as he rose•to preach, took the se ion from the shelf, and went througli 1 word for word,ino doubt greatly to t o edifica- tion of No. 2, who wrote it. Hunting. Wild G-eese th 0 en Shooting wild geese was, in the etjrly days of California, an imPort nt indus- try with those Men who hunt d for the market, and Was very attracit Ve to the few amateurs that indulged f the sport. Iu those days goose shoot ig was a profitable 1?usiness for the nter, and it was no Uncommon thing fo 4 skilful one toniake from §100 to 50 a day, even when'henbtained but f or or five shots (a shot in hunter's parlance meaning the discharge of bob barrels.) The system pursued by the market bun- ters in shooting the geese WAS as fol- : A docile ox was gendrrlilly select- ed by the hunter for his ttendant. Then, the geese were sougl t on the large open plains, where th y fed all through the day, going to water and re- turning morning and evening. The hunter marked a flock a half or three- quarters of a mile away, and then put his ox in motion, allowing him to feed as he went along, in order to make the geese reniaiii unconscious of the lurk- ing figure that moved ,behin4 the ox's body. Old goose hu.nters affirm. that these oxen seemed to take a delight in assisting the shooter to work up to his game. They would approae1i the geese in'an indirect way-, never goii straight toward them, and apparently eeding as they went along. It is also asserted that the geese used actuallyito -know, after being shot at once or 'twice, the hunter's oxen. As soon as the hunter got within Shot he discharged., both bar- rels, one at the geese on thegrpund, and the other as they rose, bagging from thirty to sixty geese. He either rested the gun on the ox's back or allowed him to pass on, and then raked them with his small cannon. The I gun used was generally a four -bore, aud- never less than six, weighing from fOurteen to eighteen pounds, and the cliarabe was from eight to ten drams of powder and two or three ounces of sh6t.

I had often read that in any case where an acid has taken the color from any fabric it may be restored by ammo- nia, but never have had oo'casion to test the fact until recently. Some days since !I accidentally spilled a can of tomatees on a new calico dress. The whole; front was pretty well deluged and in less than. three minutes I dis- covered_ that wherever the tomato had - touched it had taken out the color., hurried to take the dress dff, feeling quite discouraged, for it • was new and. pretty; and. I had intended making it last for some time as a morning work- ing dress. A. lucky thought of am- moniacame to • me, and as the dress seemed to get worse continually, I has- tily poured about a quart of warin water on a tablespoonful of ammonia, and dipped the whole frbnt in. I was in doubt as to the result, but thought to myself -1 It cannot look any worse and I can never wear it as it is.'; To my joy the first dip showed au improve- ment, and after a few moments in the ammonia a careful rinsing itt -clear watershowed. that the color. -Was 00/11- pletelylrestored. I dried a-ncl ironed it carefully, happy to find that looked as Well as ever, and am guild inclined to rejoice in my knowledge of theigood qualities of ammonia. - Errs's 0007/A.—Grateful and cemfort- ing.—"By a thorough knowledge of the. natural laws which govern. the opera-, tions of digestion and nntrition,,and. by a careful application of -the fine proper- ties of well selected cocoa, Mr. Epps has provided. our breakfast tables with a delicately flavored beverage, which may save .us many heavy doctors' bills.

THOMAS' EXCELSIOR ECLECTRIG OIL—WORTH TEN TIMES ITS WEIGHT IN Gonn.—Pain cannot stand where it Is used. It is the eheapest medicine ever made. One dose cares common sore throat. One bottle has cured bron- chitis. Fifty cents' worth has cured au old stand- ing cough. It positively aures catarrh, asthma, — and croup. Fifty cents; worth has cured crick in w e the back, and the same quantity lame back of 8 years' standing. The followiug are extracts from a few of the many letters that have been received from different parts of Canada, which, we think, should sufficiently satisfy the most skeptical: J. Collard, of Sparta, Ont., writes,1"Send me 6 dozen Dr. Thomas' Electric Oil, have sold all I had from yon,derufand w ant. m %roe naierwe ; nift speinarne s e twr ur ire ogn.,- have sold all the agent leit, it acts like' a charm' — it was slow at first, but takes splendid now."
