In giving a shor sketch of the late
Tammie Hogg, of ( reenlaw, we propose
simply to delineate is character with the
thief a few illustra we incidents, which
waste desirous of reventtng from going
in. oblivion. .
Tammie Hog be onged to the class of
innocents, and was ne of the gentlest of
hislind ; to usle a familiar tihrase, 'he
would harm,neither man or beast. The
only thing *pr* hing annoyance he
Wee ever known! to . :. guilty of was Valls•
ing some childree, ith whom he was in
daily contact, to cr ,, by giving them a
grip or sctueeze. T is he did occasional-
ly, seemingly to enjoy their crying.
This, however, iay be set down to the
sense of fun or 4ive8ioni Ohich eren in-
nocents often el' pla . Tammie was sent
to school at th4 u ual age, and, as was
to be expected, nad slow progress, but
ultimately learn d. read the bible tol-
erably
however, 6 c apter or verse, but
erably' well, h. • not the slightest
rod as if all wee o • e continuous para-
grapb. His poser.•f memory was re-
markable. He 4oui repeat from mem-
ory, without paiae or mistake, a great
number of the sal ee s or Paraphrases—
some of which he h. 0 learned when at
school, and othes nder the training of
his svortby aunt a d till the last his re-
collection of theia as unimpaired.
In Tamniie's 81h • 0 lboy days, the giv-
ing of recitations 0y scholars was com-
mon, and `femme, ot to be behind,gave
recitations too with n accuracy equal to
those of the butt hese he would often
give in after life at t e request of friends.
There was a gre t d al of the charming
ludicrous in the s le • nity of manner and
monotony of to e i which the recita-
tions were der ver d. The title and
author of the pi ce ere sure to be 'yen,
and in the same on as the rendering of
the piece itself. Ta le mie's sense of rev-
erence Was grea b et often ludicrously
misplaced. No ma ter, whether he was
about -to recite t e ' Laird of Cockpen"
or the " Assy an Came Down," he
svoulcl take off hi 0 0 nnet, pass his hands
through his hai b nd his eyes on the
ground, and, re in n that .position until
done.
The most rem a ka lepointsin Tam mie's

ed coat. trimmed wi h a number of shin-
ing brass buttons, o which he was
gularly proud, mold a large old fashioned
blue Scotch bonnet. The brass buttons

heart, and he- was
continually afraic 1 st anti:thing should
happen -to themt; the smallest child
could make km un by crying. "I'll cut
off your buttons, animie." Tammie as-
pired to be tho girt- a great weather
prophet. He w4ts continually prognos-
ticating a change f weather, and on the
- most sunshiny 4ar in sumruer he would
stop a passer b and exclaim, " D'ye
think it'Et gaun to rain the day, man !"
Another favorite performance was to
stop an acquainta ce and looking up to
the sky, ejaculate "1 wanner if it's gaun
to be blue snaw he day." When the
railway was laiclt to Greenlaw and the
, train ran, Tarnmi considered it a sort of
: new and wonderful animal, and could
' never afterward b persuaded to change
his opinion. Wh n the train came into
the station Tammie would mount a stone
dyke, and after ivaaching intently the
operation ot takin in water at the tank,
would. say, as he umped down "She'
unco droughty th day." He was of a
singularly happy nd contented disposi-
tion, -and whatev r happened he was
ready to receive it with resignation, and
even to extract in tter of congratulation
from it. He hap ened once to have a
very sore foot, an L on being condoled

Tammie was posse ed of much religious

with such ex ressio 8 as "Washed in

of their real meaningrhe understood, who
can say ? Perhaps snch as he are more
complete miracles of grace than those who
in the possession of eeason can exercise a(
more intelligent fait. Tammie would
sometin3es ask, " D'ke think get to
Heaven? I neither lir, nor swear." These
vices being associated in his mind with
exclnsion from that place. Ater his
brother George died, he would soinetimes
say, h Georclie's laid in the kirkyard noo,
but hell riae again, and we'll a' rise
again." After the eath of an uncle he
spoke of the great w ite throne and the
judgment, and askei if his uncle and
Geordie would bdthe e, and if they would
be on theright band nnd if he himself
would be on the righ hand, and be quot-

Home Thoughts.
Self -r Hance is the main spring of thrift
and en rprise. Instead of waiting, as
Mieawb4r did, for "something to turn
up," ex rt your own energies, and turn
up some hing yourself. .
If our self-denial costs us nothing, it
would t4ach us little. A caustic writer
says, "The power of self-delusion is
Heaven' 1 blessing to fool's."
It nee a long head to control a long
tangu e.
If yoi pride yourself on saying what
you like you*will often be mortified by
hearing vbat you don't like.
How ixiny thoughts we waste—how
much c re and anxiety we expend in
forming tans to Meet emergencies that
never oc ur !
Never be "behind time." "1 have
noticed, 'said Napoleon, " tbat it is the
quartera of hours that decide thelate_of
battles.
It is 1 tter to buy good counsel cheap
than rei ntanee dear..
Peoph may tell you of your being un-
fit for so e peculiar occupation in lite;
brit twee them not; whatsoever honest
employ ei ent you follow with 'weever-
ance au' assiduity, will be found fit for
you, an. will be your support in youth
and com ort in age.
"A ge. ed word hi an easy obligation;
but not to speak. ill requires only our
silence, 'Inch costs us nothing."
th worldfy struggle, pasaive en-
durance is no less useful than active
energy.
No bae quality or vice carries its ap-
propria punishment along with it more
surely t an heartlessness.
Did He Propqse ?
It vitta midnight. The young man had
farewe1l4d himself out, and Etneline had
locked the door, and was untying her
shoes, when her mother came down
stairs with a bed quilt around her, and
said:
" Wa ted to creep up -stairs without
my hea ng you, eh? Didn't you think I
knew it was an hour after midnight, did
you?
The gi 1 had no reply, and the mother
continue :
"Did ie propose. this -time ?"
" Wh — mother!" exclaimed the
danghte
"You can • 'why, mother' all you want
to, but d n't I know that he has been
coming I ere the last year? Don't I know
that you ve burned up at least four tons
of coal c urting around here ?"
The girl got her shoes off, and the
mother s ood in the stair door and asked:
Eme ine, have you got any grit ?"
"1 gu 88 80."
"1 gu ss you haven't. I just wish
that a fe ler with false teeth and a mole
on his c rin would come sparking me.
Do you now what would happen, Em-
eline ?"
" Wel , tell you. He'd come t�

mansione a goat jumping for sunflower
