[Written for The Exposrroad Well friends once more I greet you alf, And hope you are all well, - 1 come again in rythmie strain, My annual tale to tell. Alone I stand in a shadowy land T,00king out o'er a boundlcsi sea And through the shadowy mists behold A visionsthat is to be: 'Tis a boundless sea whose restless waves Roll ever on and on, And break on an Island's pebbly shore, In my vision to me shown. On the shore of the' Isle, a countless throng-, Marching onward, ever, I see -; Who gather the pebbles, which all are pearls, And cast them into the sea ; And the waves roil on, and the shore recedes, And the multitude melts away, Till the Isle with its pebbly shore is gone, And the rirwaves holdeth-swa.y. And this is al- vision interpreted.: The world th the countless throng And the pearls that they east in the mighty sea Are the years -as they pass along, And the-fadino- shore is the Shore of Time And the vision shall truthful be, For the waves that roll are Oblivien's waves, And the sea is Eternity. . Gaieties. . —Those:who knew most are generally the best listeners, and the most anxious to know- more. —At a Sunday school class the teacher asked a borwhat Lot Would. do when his wife had been turned into a pillar of alt? "He would gang an' look for a fresh ane," was the answer. --Conversation between two women in a town in Ayrshire—" Weel, woman, rin sorry to hear your son was killed in Egypt." "Ay, woman, he was shot through the head behin' the ear." " Wee, it' a guid's mercy he wisna shot through the e'e or he wid 'a' been blinded." —Tramp (with specially prepared story addressing gentleman who is known to be good for a sixpence at the very least) —"Oh, sir! I dinna drin-k or smoke, or mak' oily bad use o' my siller " •Gentleman interrupting him)— " You'll need the less of it then; here's a penny." —A boy who was brought up at a farm was sent to a drapers' shop for a yard of satin. 1Vhen he reached the shop he forgot the name, so he said— " What's the ither name forby the devil ?" "The dell." " Ay, but it's the ither name." " Satins" "Ay, that's the name, gie's a yaird o' him." —An old man in Clackmannanshire named Willie Adamson had a daughter married. When a neighbor asked What was the name of his son-in-law he an- swered—" Dad, I dinna mind. It's no Falkirk, nor it's no Stirling, nor it's no. Ferth, but he's ca'd for a horse market." His name was Kinross. ---A tanner who was fond of a dram was looking one morning to see if the road was clear, when his master appear- ed round the corner, and the following conversation took place: Master— " Well, John, was you looking for me?" John—"*Deed was I; but I wasna want- ing to see ye." --" Why so late !" said a schoolmas- ter to a little urchin, as he entered the room on a cold, slippery morning. "Why, sir," replied the boy, "T would take one step forward, and slide back two.- "Indeed !" said the teacher; " then how did you get here at all if that was the case ?' "Oh," said the boy, acratching his head on finding himself caught, "1 turned round and walked the other way." —A few months ago. Professor Fife, Aberdeen, presented.to the Established Kirk, Carmyllie, a harmonium. A Carmillie ploughman's wife went to church to hear it. Immediately when the blessing was said she hurried out in rise her young child at home should be out ot temper. In the afternoon a neighbor asked her how she liked the music. She said—" I liked it brawly, hut the best o' it was to come when I left, for juist as I cam' oot at the door they began to play 'Pop Goes the Weasel.' ' —Keeping the Fast Day. --By the march dyke, at the extreme point of the two farms which the dyke divided, stood two shepherds, the one on this side, the other on the other side of the dyke. It was also the boundary of two parishes. On this particular day it was the Fast - Day in one parish, while not in the ether. The time the two were " crack- ing the shepherd's _dog on the Fast - !)ay side broke away among the sheep.

I defy him to prove it by any of my sayings or (halite, and give names in full, but the highway man will think we have a par- ticular dislike for him if he cannot ac- complish his object in spite of us, and it is too often the case in other things. My remarks were based on Enquirers frata other Townships wanting to know avho the debaters were, as they were so •--often published, and I still maintain there are none capable of discussing Commercial Union without a practical knowledge of the business of the differ- ent Provinces. " Dhon Uno says whiskers are no sign of intelligeuce but the very reverse. Well, they are a sign of a Male Being, and some after scrap- ing and shaving for years to' a whisker, are still a " Dhoti U,no.' He says to join the Reform Club and I • might have hitelligenoe. Of course, any fool would be deemed intelligent if she joined e Reform Club, but at the last eleotions the members of this club- call- ed others falsifiers and fools and their debates are mostly political and of course, whether affirmative or negative, their leanings are the sane way. If it was a Farmers' Club and discussed the various modes of farming and tillage with experithents it would benefit the people to take part. He says I have the talent for making myself disagree- able. Well I will be agreeable for once and give "Dhon Uno," and the young man he says I have the dislike for, for I do not know either, a chance to de- bate on Free Trade and Protection. They to take Free Trade and choose the time and place and you, Mr. Editor, to publish all the names in full for two weeks before. They can take one half or one hour each and give me half the time occupied by both, and speak as often as they like on the same con- ditions, and I will leave it to the audience to say by a vote who has the intelligence or the cobwebs. If " Dhon Uno " does not accept this I request him to sign over his own name that his last was a malicious and intentional false- hood or elsa I will be compelled to find his name.—NATIONAL POLICY. Josh ,Billings on Marriage., History holds its tung as to who the pair was who first put on the silken har- • ness, and promised to work it kind thru thick and thins up.,hill and down, and on the level, swim, drown, or flote. But whoever tha wuz, tha must hay made a good thing of it, or so many of their posterity would not has; harnessed up since and drove out. There is a great moral grip to mar- riages—it is the mortar that holds them together. But there ain't but darn phew foaks who could set down and givea good written_ opinyun why on arth tha coine to did it. There is a great proof that it is one of them natural kind of accidents that muSt happen jist as birds fly out of the nest when tha have feathers enuff, without being able to tell, why. &ins marry for buty, and never dis- cover their mistake; this is lucky. Sum marry for money., and don't see it. - Sum marry for pedigree, and feel big for six months, then very sensibly come to the conclusion that pedigree is no bet- ter than skim milk. • Sum marry bekaws tha hav been hist - ed sumwhere else; this is a Cross match, a bay and a sorrel; pride may make it endurable. Suni Marry for love without a cent in their pockets nor a friend in the world, nor, a drop of pedigree. This -looks desperate, but it is the strength of the game. If marrying for love ain't a success, then matrimony is a ded beat. -Sum marry bekaws tha think wimmin will be scarce next year,, and live tew wonder how the crop holds out. Sum marry to get rid of themselves, and discover that the game was one that two could piay at and neither win. Sum marry the second time to get even, and find it a, gambling game, the more they put down the less they take up. I Sam marry to be happy, and missing it, wondea where all the happiness goes to whesi it dies. SUM' marry they can't , tell why, and live they can't tell how, Almost everybody gets married, and it is a good joke. Some think it over carefully fust, and then set down and marry. Both ways are right if they hit the mark. Sum marry rakes to convert them. This is a little risky, and it takes a smart missionary to do it. Sum marry coquettes. This is like buying a poor farm heavily mortgaged and working the balance of your days to clear off the mortgage. alaaried life has its chances, and this is justh,vhaa gives it flavor. Everybody_ loves to fool with chalices because every- body expects to win. But I am author- ized to state that everybody don't win. But, after,all, married life is . full as certain as the dry goods business. No man can-telLexactly. where he will fetch up when he catches calico. No man can tell what calico has a mind to do. - Calico don't always know herself. Dry goods of all kinds is the child of ci rc u ms tan cea. Sum never marry, but this is just the t same with another name to it. The man who stands on the bank shiv- ering and dassentis more apt to catch cold than he who pitches his head fust in the river. Marry ydung is my motto. I have tried it, and I know what I am talking about. If anybody asks you why you got married, say you don't recollect. $500 Reward.

Only a few of the above nan ed symptoms are likely to be present in any one. case at onetime, or in one stage of the dis- ease.

No dis- ease's so common, more deceptive and danger- ous. less understood or more unsuccessfully treated by physicians.

In dress and manners as well, they are duplicates. Nevertheless, one is convivial and the other abstemious. Dial drinks too much and Ben not at all. When Dan entered the Mirrored grog shoo, tbe other day, he was unsteady. - His inebriety was quite visible. In each panel of a big screen at the doorway is fixed a long glass and the whole con- struction is so set that mirror re- flecting mirror, the i'man who en- ters sees himself going in a- contrary direction. It is startling, as perhaps the reader knows, to come across your counterfeit presentment unexpectedly and very clearly; but here the ingenious arrangement makes yon walk right past yourself in a most puzzling way. Well, Dan was not astounded in that manner, but to see what he thought was Ben coming out from the bar. "Ah, there !" he cried; and, then seeing that his supposed cousin was .palpably intoxicated, he confidentially added,- "better get home, Ben.
