Incorporated. in iOur lerothei• Tongue, Whose Origin Some of Its Might Not be Able to IndloateOilthantl. There is an old, a very old talo told of a venerable lady, who, atter sexing the play of Hamlet for the first time, said "It is a very good play, as plays go, but it is intuit) up of quotations,'-' This good dame, although she was probably un- aware of it, was acknowledging, in a roundabout way, perhaps, the indebted- ness Of our language t0 our national tbardl; phrases, sentences, and sometimes whole. Imes from his writings, have been crystallized, as it were, Jute colloquial English, and there are probably more quotations drawn from the works of Shakespeare than from those of any other aut hors, ancient or modern. It is not, however, with quotations which aro used as quotations, and are consequently dignified with inverted commas, that we propose to deal, but rather with some of those phrases which by constant use have become iucorporat- ocl in our mother -tongue, whose origin some of us blight not be able to indioate offhand, or which by popular error have boon wrongly assigned to this or that 'welter. For instance, Ham Weller ("Pick- wick Wawa") did not originate the ex- pression "wheels within wheels," as funny suppose; ho used it, truly, but the idea is from tbo bible (Ezekiel, ib). Another biblical expression, which would hardly be recognized as such at ilrst sight, is "the skin of any teeth" (job, xix., 20). We aro inciebtod to Cer- vantes for the proverb, "Honesty is the best policy" ("Don Quixote," part ii., chapter 33), while the fatuous phrase "diamond cut diamond" is d no to ]ford, the author of The Lover's Melancholy (act L, scone i.) Although Sheridan's well-known character "Mrs. Malaprop" slid "own the soft impeachment" (The Rivals, act V., scene 8), we must credit Shakespeare with the origin of the say-, ing that "comparisons are odorous" (so frequently attributed to that estimable lady), as ho puts those words La the mouth of Dogberry, (Mace Ado About Nothing, act III., scent v.). Ben Jonson (Tale of a Tub, Net IV., seeno iii.) and Butler ("Hudibras;" part I., canto i., line 321.) both "suiell a rat;" and to Tus- ser, the author of ''Five Hundred Points of Good Husbandry," the truism "better late than never" is due. The great Napoleon unty sneeringly havo called us a "nation of shop -keeper,;" tune nation buutiquiere), and have expressed the opinion that "Providence is on the sido of the big battalions" ; but the first is borrowed from Adam Smith (''Wealth of Nations." vol. 11., published in 1775, when Napoloe.0 was a child), and the second is a plagiarism from Voltaire's letter to M. le Riche, dated February 6, 1770 ("Dieu est toujours pour los gros betaillons"). "Though I say it as I shouldn't" is used in sli;rtly altered form by Beaumont and lamellar, and eftuiwa eas quoted by Colley Libber and Folding. Kinin Cluteles H. was of opin- ion that a parliamentary debate in his time was "as good as a play." (It would bo interesting to know what his merry Majesty would think of 001 legislators' of to -clay.) For "murder will out" wo roust turn to Geoffrey Chaucer, who in itis quaint spelling tells lis '1lordro wol ant'' (`The .tonnes Proestos Tale," lino 11,00e). When we say we will "leave no stone anti -timed " we are quoting the answer' of the Delphic oracle to the in- quiry of Polyeratos aas to' the best moans ur diecovurill g the treasure eaasure buried on the field of Pl at ae a by ldar.loniu To "make a virtue of necessity" is from Chaucer ("Knightes `Tale," line 8014), but the Phrase is usod also by Rabelais, Shakes- peare and Dryden.. Few people, and surely no Scotsman, will require t0 be ronaiucleci that Burns is responsible for "durance vile" and "Some woo short lour ayont the twal," or fail to acquiesce in his quotation (from Popo), "An honest roan's the noblest work of God;" but they would less easily recognize Spenser's "Faerio Qnoene„ (Book I1I, canto i., stauz 117) as the source of "through thick and thin"—an expression,- however, which is to be found in ninny subsegnen twriters. Shaakespeare and Swift both bid us ``tell the truth and shame the devil ;" and a dozen authors—Shakesptlarc, Spenser and Chau- cer among them—hasto to assure us that ".All that ;litters is not gold.", From Byron (a much -quoted author) wo learn that "Truth is stranger than fiction" Iron Jaun, ' canto xlv.,stanza 10i),aud in the same poem wo trod "The tocsin of the soul—the dinner bell" (panto v., stanzaa'19). "Procrastination is the thief of -time" occurs in Young's "Night Thoughts" :(night I., 11n0 393). "Fresh woods and pastures now," is Milton's (' lyeides," lino 193); so also is the phrase that olcl1nan cloquent,'' that Peas been so frequently applied to Mr. Gladstone (`'Sunnots"-To the Lady 11aa •aloe Lay). Shakespeare makes r,llosteas Quickly" Say that bwniy "John Falstaff" has "eaten her out of house and home" (Henry IV., part IL, aot II., scene 1.'), and wo have the unimpeachable authority of tho 8111110 great .writer for stating that "the devil can guoto (cite) Scripture for his purpose" (Merchant of •cameo, art I.., scene iii. ). .ancien . an- nonncis that ''11101) are but chiloran of ca larger growth" (All for Lovr, NOV IV., 600110 L ), and bids us remember "delays are dangerous" (Tyrannis Love, act 1., scene 1. ). `'Cver the 111115 and. far away" is to bo found in Gay's Beggar's Opera (act I., scene 1.); and the song,, to whose welcome tune the dinner is tlsherod in at 1110St naval and militarymesses"Oh 1 the roast beef of 01d England." is from the pen or Henry Fielding, Gray's "Elegy 10 a Country Churchyard" is, perhaps, the most frequently Voted short poem in the language: it is like the old. lady's Hamlet, before referred to—"made up of cjaotations." 'SSrhere ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to bo wise," is felled lig another poem by the sane author ("On a distant prospect of Eton College," stanza 10). "Man wants but little hero below, Nor wants that little• Tong," inilst bo eredited to Oliver Goldsmith (''The Her- mit," stanza t3), but the salve idea is to bo round in Young's "1lg1it Thoughts' (night IV'., lino 11.8). ' Cis distance lends enchantment to the view" was written by Thomas Campbell ("Pleasures of Hope," part i., line 7), and Moat's "Endymion" coutaies the oft -quoted line, "A thing of beauty is a joy for- ever" (lino 1). To find the origin of the. phrase "To turn over a new ,leaf," we must refer to Middleton's "Anything for a Quiet Life" (apt I1I. , scone iii. ), and the title,of this same play, by the way, U S low la in our of chary conversation we frequently quote unoon- soiously, perhaps,) some of the best writers of times gone by. We will conclude with a short anecdote anent quotation. .Shakespeare has often been credited with knowing everything, and a Shakespearean enthusiast once stat- ed in company that somewhere or other in his writings a quotation could bo found suitable torevery subject, and for every condition and circumstance of life, and further challenged any one present to nano any two subjects for which an appropriate quotation could not bo met with. One of his hearers, thinking that probably Shakespeaito bad never had his photograph taken (would that ho had), or•sont a six-ponny "wire," named pho- tography anti the electric telegraph, both essentially children of the nineteenth century. The challenger replied for pho- tography, "Tho glorious sun stays in nis course and plays the alchemist" (King; John, act III., scone f: ); and for the elec., trio telegraph, "I'll put a girdle round the earth in forty minutes" (Midsummer Night's Dream, act IL, eeene i.). How far those quotations fulfil the conditions laid, down, we must'loave our readers to judge. t s;WEBS OF THE QUEEN. Some of. the,Thinzs She Could Do if She Chose to. - - It is generally believed in this country thee the English sovereigns are entirely without power. An English authority, however, says: "As a platter of fact, our sovereigns lavararely taken any active part in polities' since George III's time; but they could still do some very aston- ishing things if they chose. Tho Queen could dismiss every Tommy Atkins in Ota: army; from the Commander -in -Chief to the youngest drununor-boy. She could disband the navy in the same way, and sell all our ships, stores, and arsenals to the first customer that came along. Act • ing entirely on her own responsibility, she could declare war against any for- eign country, or make a present to any foreign power of any part of uhe Empire.. Site could mako every Ivan, woman and child in the countiv a peer of the realm with the right, in the case of males tvl.o are of age, to a spat in tho House of Lords. With a single word she could dismiss any Government that happened to bo in .power, and could, it is believed, pardon and liberate all the criminals in our jails. Those are a few of the things the Queen could do if she liked; but it is not necessary 00 say that Her Majesty never acts in natters of state except on the advice of the Government for the time being. AROUND THE CENTURY MARK. AIrs. Lucy Healy, of Charlestowu, R.I., has just completed her 99th year. She is a daughter of a revolutionary soldier. Mrs. Henry Delia, of Astoria, Ore., is over 100 years old, yet it is reported she can. walk five miles without experiencing undue fatigue. Hosea Brown of `lrildermere, Ore., is said to be the only survivor of the ever of 1812 on tile Pacific coast who draws a pen- sion. He is 101 years old. Israel D. Condit, of Milburn, N.J., who has just celebrated his 92nd birthday, is the only living charter member of the Alorris & Essex railroad. MarshalCanrobert, probably the old -est living holder of a baton, recently cele- bratedhisthepet of 36th birthday. He is hie aunt, time. Wilkinson, %elle i3 hale and hearty in her 102d year. Thomas Gormley, aged 104 years, was knaked down and had his shoulder brok- en by a horse car in New York recently. Notwithstanding Ms great see. Mr. Gorm- ley is said to be in such splendid health that he will recover from the accident. Elijah Bryan, of Nevada, Ito., who is now in his 95th year, as a youth helped to• defend the homes of the Missouri settlers against the raids of Black Hawk's war- ders. His family is related to that of Daniel Boone, and he owns an old flint- lock gun which was a faxorite with the frontiersman. LOOKOUT FOR BIRDIE. Hard -billed birds are those which live on seeds. Soft -billed birds do not live on seeds, but on insects and prepared food. Feed very little sweet stuffs, it spoils the digestion, and then the bird's health is gone. ..Hard -billed birds need little for food besides seed and occasionally a bit of let- tuce, apple or celery, Moulting cannot be called a disease since it is a natural process of providing the bird with new plumage. Clinton: The doctors in attendance upon Mr. Geo. Cooper removed about 50 shot from his hip. and on Monday closed up the wound caused by the late accident; it is anticipated that the wound will soon be entirely healed,. without any serious results following. Clinto' Town clerk Coats has an Irish fri._:ae overcoat which has seen active service for 19 years, and it is yet "almost as good as new." This coat certainly does not owe him anything, Mit he promises to lay it aside if he gets the appointment of Registrar.— New Era. Verna : Mr. W. MgAliister, the not- ed pig bleeder, was a very successful prize winner at tho fall fairs. He took 84 first prizes and 20 second pries, amnlluting to $90; and sold 8 pigs for $125, total $215, during the fair.

A complaint at this time is catarrh in same of its various forms. A slight cold develops the disease in the head. Droppings of corruption passing' into the lungs hring on consumption. The only way to cure this disease ie to puri- fy the blood. The most obstinate cases of catarrh yield to the the medicinal .powers of Hood's Sarsaparilla as if by magic, simply because it reaches the seat of•the cliseiase, and by purifying and vitalizing the blood, removes the cause. Not only does hood's Sarsap- arilia•do this but it gives renewed vig- or igor to the whole system, snaking it pos sible for good health to rein supreme.

Brussels: Alex, Baird islet with a serious accident on Monday afternoon, and was brought home in an insensible condition„suffering• from severe injur- ies to his head, and not until late at night did he recover consciousness. He says he had beea to the other side of Jamestown to deliver a headstone for Cochrane & Johnston in the light wagon, and as he was driving along quietly the wheel'got into a rut and ite wasthrown violently into the road'and remembers nothing more. Shortly af- ter he was picked dap and taken to the hotel at Jamestown, where the horse and'wagon had already arrived.
