A wise cavalry ollicer keeps a
sharp eye upon the horses of his
command, as the SUOCedd of the en-
gagement may depend upon their
good condition. A sergeant was
out of piltieuco with 1411 awkward re-
cruit. " Never approach the horses
from behind without speaking 1"

kick yon in that thick head of yours,
and the end of it will be that we
shall have nothing but lame horses

The will of the earl of Pembroke,
of the English civilwat• notoriety,
dues not portray a mind exactly in
the state it should be, when he
proceeds to say : "As regards my

nay Lord Fairfax, that when Crom-
well and hie council take away his
commission he may atill have some
horses to command, Above all,

One of the curiosities of the
House of Commous, very rarely
seen., was Erle Drax, for' many
years m3nlher for a Dorsetshire
borough. Once, at a general elec•
Lion, on the day previous to the
nomination he put out the, follow-
ing address to his constituents .
".Electors of Wareham—I under-
stand that some evil -disposed person
has been circulating a report that
I
wish my tenants and other persons
dependent upon me to vote accord-
ing to their conscience. This is a
dastardly lie, calculated to injure
me. I have no wish of the sort. L
wish that these persons shall vote
for me."
Eating one's words is a very
common shying, and here is a
practical illustration of the proverb.
A few years ago a quarto volume
was published in St. Petersburg in
favor of the liberties of the people,
and the author taken into custody.
After being tried in a summary
way, the production was determined
to be a libel, and the writer con-
demned to "eat his own words." A
scaffold was erected, the book
nes separated from its binding, and
every leaf rolled up. The author
was then served with them leaf by
leaf, and was obliged to swallow
them on pain of the knout. When
the medical gentlemen were of
opinion that he had had enough,
he was conducted back to the prison,
and the business resumed the two
following days. After three hearty
but unpleasant meals, every loaf of
the book was s4allowed.

In a recent book of memoirs we
find this entainingglimpse of Lord
Normanby and his theory of the in.

line dress upon the female sex :
"Meeting hit" one day at dii ner• at
Pulham, the subject of women's ap-
preciation of aristocratic simplicity
came up. The ladies, of course,
declared that there was nothing
they admired so much. After list
ening for some time Lord Norinan-
by said : 'I totally disagree with
you ; I believe that women have no
appreciation of simplicity in dress
nor in anything else. I , believe
that the more a man bedizens him-
self with velvet, satins, gold chains,
rings on hie fingers, and varnished
boots the more they admire him.

began to throw the contents of his
apartments in the court -yard below.

pieces of furniture followed, while

Almost simultaneously with his
appearance at the window the aston-
ished crowd noticed a bright light in
the appartnient. The drapery had
been fired by hire. In a few mins
utes the whole place was ablaze.
This created a new diversion, and a
hasty suu)lllOns was sent to the fire

he commenced a final fusilade from
the window. Bottles and glasses
were fired with all the force of which
he was capable ; and they were ins
terepereell with bullets. Suddenly
the noise ceased, anis on `hie the po-
lice took courage to et0rm the apart-
ment which, during all thin time had
continued to burn. They started
upstairs to cut open the doors, when
suddenly most heartrending shrieks
were hoard from the courtyard.

Gan, In one hand he clutched the
rifle which had done such deadly exe-

Old Lord Forr4Ien, the Scotch
judge, died in 1727. Dr. Clerk,
who attended his lordship to the
last, calling ou his patient the day
he died, was admitted by the judge's
old eerva11t and cleric, David Reed.

Dr. 1}Tekerie, Hungarian minis•

in the habit of spending his Situ-
days.His onlypiece of luggage on
these occasions consists of a hand bag,
which never contains anything but
the regulation bottle, four bendker-
chiefs and a traveling -cap. Return-
ing one Mouday to the capital the
minister met a friend, a gentlemen
named Von Fischer, who was carry-
ing a bag exactly the counterpart of
his excellency's valise. Herr von
Fischer smiled a thoughtful smile
as he notices the similarity of the
bags and whispered to the minister :

"Iwill dono-
thing of the kind," he said, and
when the two gentlomen arrived at
Pesti' depot the minister beckoned
to a cuetotu house official and said
"My friend desires to pay duty on a
lot of Turkish tobacco he has in his
bag." "His excellency is joking,"
cried the baron, who meanwhile had
changed bags with the minister.
"See, I have no contraband articles
about me," and he opened the bag
in proof of what he said. The min-
ister looked perplexed for a moment,
then he resolutely grabbed his
friend's bag and said to the official :
"Well, wastage me for the tobacco, but
be quick about it. I have no time
to lose." The official acted on the
suggestion, and the minister paid 3
florins and 50 pfnnige into the trea-
sury of his own department. Then
he jumped i11to a carriage and drove
off, shouting out his thanks to the
baron for his present of twenty
pounds of excellent tobacco.
HOW THEY DO IN "PAREE",
A Paris despatch says : A start•
ling tragedy was enacted Saturday
night at No. 46 Rue Jacob. Baron
de Plinval, who, though only twen,
ty•four years of age, has acquired a
reputation as a high roller, after
dinning with Mme. Mika, who
keeps a counter at the Universale
exhibition, went home. The baron's
father, seeing the person by whom
his son was accompanied and the
drunken condition of the pair, refus•
ed to admit them to his house.
They returned to the baron's apart-
ments in the Rue Jacob, and there
all of a sudden the baron appeared
to be seized with madness. With
the assistance of his frail compan-
ion he proceeded to pile the furni.

AN IDYLLIC SCENE.
A BEAUTIFUL MAIDEN FROM TIIE
NORSELAND.
In the immigrant quarter of the
Windsor street station, Montreal,
there were 130 Norwegians. Here
is a little grout, of mothers, with
their babies at their breasts, croon,
ing them to sleep, while at their feet
the older urchins sprawl, and sing
and gambol. There, in the west
end of the long, bare room is a
crowd of abont fifty, Itt the centre
is a fiddler. He playa something
which makes them impatient. Then
he strikes up a waltz. The eyes of
the girls light up now. Their feet
beat in sympathetic and delightful
accompaniment. They look longingly
at the brawny young fellows by
whom they are surrounded. But
these are too loutish and too shy.
They pt•etend to he unconscious of
the invitation. They smoke their
big wooden pipes etolidly. They
would like, but they fear to take
the pleasant bait of partners oflered
them by dozens of blue eyes. And
so they puff away, and look down
on the floor, and the fiddler scrapes
away on three strings, and the girls
pout a little, and the opportunity is
lost. Over yonder, it group of wo-
men and girls are haggling with the
caterer for a meal. The .present
caterer is a colored plan named
Brown, who is assisted by his three
daughters.
There is no common language be-
tween the parties. Mr. Brown has
to show the milk and the tea end
the bread before any understanding
can be accomplished. Big yellow -
haired giants aro aleepiltg on their
luggage. Others sit round a table
playing cards in perfect silence and
with countenances of extraordinary
solernnity. Here is a young woman
who walks up and down the room
alone. The admiring gaze of the
young men follow her. She is a
beauty, Her eyes are deet) violet,
her cheeks like blown wild roses,
and her hair a splendid mass of
gold. She knows she is pretty, and
she won't cheapen herself. When
she passes the young men take their
pipes out of their mouths and sum,

SEEING AND KNOWING.
An etuineut Lord Chief Justice,
who was trying a right of -way case,
had before him e. witness—an old
farmer who was proceeding to tell
the jury that he had "know-
e.d,the path for sixty yeer, and my
feyther tould I as he 'leered my
grandfeyther say—"
"Stop i" said the judge, "we
can't have any hearsay evidence
here."
"Not !" exclaimed Fanner Giles
"Then bow dost know who thy
feyther was'cept by hearsay !"
After the laughter had subsided
the judge said : "In courts of law
we can only be guided with what
you have seen with your own
eyes, and nothing more or less."
"Oh, that be blowed for a tale !"
replied the fernier. "I ha' a bile
on the hack of my neck, and I never
seed 'un, but I be prepared to swear
that he's there, dang 'un !"
This second triumph on the part
of the witness set in a torrent, of
learsay evidence about the footpath
which obtained weight with the jury,
albeit the judge told them it was not
testimony of any value, and the
farmers party wan.
