As Oliver Cromwell on 'the anniver- sary of his greatest vicfory Jollowed iis darling daughter to the grave, so in the humblest and most unpretend- ing life there has been a commingl- ing of gladness and gloom, of triumph and despair.

Atitimmel fruit so sharply chases the summer -harvest, and the snow of the white blossoms of springtime oome so soon after the snows of winter. It is a remark so often Made that it fails to make any impression and the plati- tude that, calls forth no reply, "How -rapidly time goes." Every century is a big wheel of -•ears, which makes a hundred revolu- tions and breaks down. , Every year is a big Wheel of months and makes 1 2 revolutions and then ceases.

There is no - 1 lung more vexatious to any 01 e than r. to tell , a story when. people 0,e not attending.'They may be whi poring on some other sabject, or the are preoccupied. One cannot tell a story effectually unless there are go d lie- • tellers. Well, that, which in my text! is called the "tale that is tol " has - plenty of listeners. There is n such thing as being alone. God listens, and the air is full of spiritual ntelli- gences all listening, aild the world listens to the story of our life some hoping it will be successful, others hoping it will be a failin.e.

The general was roundly abusing the British Government, and ended with am attack °upon the Q ueen AI; the next station _the "fire-eater" got off to stretchliis lege, and Mr. Kingsford followed him.. Walking up to the general, he said, "Site you have said !some nasty things about iny Queen, and I will just give you three minutes to apologize." The Yankee tried to ;pooh, pooh the whole thing, but Kingsford, 3,vatch in band; sternly told • him he meant business, and there was only a min - lite more of grace. The general, see- ing how the game went, apologized handsomely. There were .several spectators of this scene, and one of them sometime „after told Mr. McDonald, the Mon- treal tobacco millionaire. Ile was delighted at the patriotic story, and ,Kingsford became his closes E friend. When the historian died Mr, McDon- ald settled an annuity.on his family and followed it up by endowing the Well-known Kingsford chair. Old English Pewter..
