"Hadn't you better leave the door unfastened, Ellen?" said my husband, as I turned the key in the lock, then put it in my pocket. " I don't know" I said, doubtfully then, after 41 moment's hesitation, " no, think it had better be fastened. The' children might get out and run down to the gate -at the foot of the meadow to play, and it is but a step from there to the ereek." Iltema.de no reply, but stooped down and -looked at some part of the harness 'with a slightly perplexed air. " What is the matter now ?" I asked, with some asperity. The truth is, my husband. belongs to 'that numerous class of individuals swhose motto is, never do to -day what ayou can put off tillto-rnorrow ; while I, -ean the contrary, was prompt and de- ecided. With me, to will and. to do 'were synonymous, and had little mercy for such a failing, "I fancy this little piece of twine will 'bring us through this time, and. I will • certainly mend it to -morrow," he replied • as 1 .tlimbed into the old-fashioned ' waggon. _ The harness being adjusted to his satisfaction if not mine, he seated him- self beside [me, and, nodding a, last good-bye to the little faces pressed against the window -pane, we drove off. Our cottage was situated in a ;little valley lying to the southwest of what was at that time the village of Lanoy, in Canada,. A hill of considerable height stood between us and the village on our side -a verdure -clad, gently rising elope, on the other a more abrupt des- cent, with a rather circuitous road winding past little cottages ,azid farm- houses of more or less pretensions. Our present errand was to the shop te•-which we carried our produce and received. in exchange groceries, clothes, etc. Our load consisted in part of a basket of eggs, consequently we were obliged to drive rather more slowly than usual. I left, as I had often done • I TheBreakfast of ',a Lond_oner. s THE HURON EXPOSITOR. Grace, sitting with her ba At to the stove, and her attention entarely absorb- ed by the pictures in the family bible, did not see it until Rthe eei,New- foundland dog, who hail been quietly. dozing by hrside attracted her notice by his evident exteasiiims, after which he sprang through the window, fortu- nately taking the .sash with him, and, running at. full speed to the nearest house, seon returned with some of its inmate& In the meantime, Grace, after letting - down the two elder children through the window, which was only about 1- four feet from the ground, took the ( baby from. the cradle, and was prepared to follow when ,the neighbors arrived. The house being old, and built, as most houses usually sae, of the most combus- tible materialse notwithstanding 11 efforts, soon became a blackened, smok- ing attin. '43tie evening, about a year afterwards as we sat in our new house, built on the •site of the old one, but more oommodi- sous and comfortable in every respect, remarked,— • The fire has benefited us in at least one way, for unless the old. house had been actually consumed,.we shout never have had the new one." " I have-feltthe benefit of it in •an- other way," Said: my husband gravely. " It has taught me never to put off do- ing anything•which should be time at once until more convenient season.'

Then, suffocated by the si oke, and overpowered by excitement I fell fainti-ig to the floor.

How the fire originated was 'a n stery which we ceuld never unravel. the place. ometimes Nature has -done so much t t it requires but little study to arrange the groxinds. Thereis where the prOprietor and his gardener should be in gaily consultation until the 'plans have been laid out to suit both. The owner should not be too stiff and. un- yielding in his notions, unless hie knowledge on the subject is good, nor should the •other be too obstinate. Dif- ferent persous have different ideas of the same matter, each from his own point of view, while almost anyone might suggest an alteration ; but it is only he who has studied and practiced the art that can lay out properly. Property may be often highly im- proved and increased in value by spend- ing a eomparatively small sum in case the i provement be judiciously carried out b a man of taste; while if done at rando , without proper judgment, it will be a botched. affair ut best. la When all this is accomplished and everything neat and orderly, then comes the proper keeping. It is sometimes difficult to make children and domes- tics kdep things in order, and without cleanliness and order the finest place will soon lose its impressive beauty. The eye of the proprietor must ever be watchful over the household and its de- pendents. Evefy broach against perfect order and cleanliness should be strictly pre- vented'. A place should be provided for everything, and everything kept in its projer place and nowhere else. Out- houses ehould be as convenient as pos- sible v ithout being in the way. One fact *evident: that the less trouble it takesto keep a place clean the cleaner it is ilikely to be kept. Perfect drainage should' be a prominent feature, for these is nothing more unsightly than a mud - puddle within the grounds ; besides, the seeds f disease are herein generated during hot weather. As ti the outbuildings, it must be 'borne in mind that to imitate the main buildieg in style and architecture to a certainextent will add harmony to .the place. Prophetic Dreams. A m n lin Hartford, Conn., says he saw al the incidents of the death .of Mme. Rolland, at Niagara F,aills, in a dreaniib n: efore it occued. In -support E of his ssertion, a correspondent of the Hartfo d Times sends the following.: " Seteral eearsago I was going on a journey. The night before I texpected to start I dreamed that when the car- riage came for rie in the morning, the driver was it young man whose lather was a friend of mine several years be- fore. I don't think I had seen or thought of him for years, and had. not the slightest idea what he was doing. I also clr4amed we were too late for the train. When I went down to -breakfast I told o le or two persons Dar dream. -I can ass re you I was astorhshed when the car iage came to find the driver was the per. on I had dreamed he would be. We got to the station in time to see the train na ving off. I have dreamed other dreams that came to pass, tut none as remark Lble as the one I have given. How ca I or any one else know that dreams are coming to pass until they do coni to pass ? I had another -ex- perienc that I think was singular. One nig t I heard two persons, who oc- cupied he room next to .mine, talking. I heard only three words •ef their con- versatio ; not enough to:. 'ye me any 11 idea what they were talki g about. The next day one of the per'ns told me what their conversation was, and I found 1 had dreamed it:all out. Will some one please el:plain ?" I' • Re uperating the Brain. An intelligent writer on this subject thinks the use of stimulants to fortify the exhausted brain an unwise measure. The best possible thing, he says, for a man to 4o. when he fails to carry any- thing t ough, is to go to bed. and sleep as long as he can. Thisis the only re- ettperati n of the brain power, the only actual recuperation of brain force ; be- cause during sleep the brain is in a state of rest, in a condition to receive appro- priate paiticles of nutriment from the blood, w lich take the place of those which li ve been consumed by previous labor, sal ce the very act of thinking burns up solid particles, -as every turn of the wheel or screw of the steamer is the result of the consumption by fire of fuel iu the furnace. The supply of con- sumed brain substance can only be had from nutritive particles in the blood, which w re obtained from the food eaten pr viously, and the brain is so constant d that it can best receive and appropri te to itself those nutritive par- ticles du peg the state of rest, of quiet and stillness of sleep. , No G -31d -Headed Canes in Heaven. At a Southern camp -meeting, held many years ago, says the Boston Tran- script,;were two ministers who were mu- tually'. antagonistic. One of them, Brother Davis, had a wooden leg, and, when he was especially wrought up, wohld emphasize every word by thump- ing it on the platform. During one of the sessioes of the camp -meeting, when the public' tent was orowded, and Broth- er Davis was exhorting with all his power, Brother Jones appeared with a gold -headed caue. Pointing his long, bony finger at him, Brother Davis ex- claimed,' Brother Jones, there'll be no gold headed canes in Heaven !" "No," said Brother Jones, angered by the sud- den attack, " and no wooden -legged preachers here, either." • A PEAL liTTLICISTI BATFT.--A. lady travelling in Syria and the Holy Land, gives a description of a Turkish bath. In the entrance hall are raised llen sheets, with towels around 1 di- vans,woocovered with cushions, where one wraps one- selein silk an the head. One then passes through six marble rooms, all with domed skylights, marble floora,.and a gutter cut in them to let the water off. The first is the cold room, the next warm, the third warmer, . and so on until one reaches a room where the heat is about 120 degrees, and where the operation com- mences.
