pronounce his opinion on their faculties I and qualifications and much surprise was | expressed, particularly by the ladies, at the < accuracy of his verdicts. One individual, | however, stood aloof, annoying the rest of the party by his sneers at their credulity, and insulting the learned gentleman by ac- cusations of charlatanism. | will defy any man living said he, to infer the char acter and conduct of man from the organ ization of his skull.' The Doctor said mo- thing, but appeared considerably agitated. As if it were possible,' continued the stranger, for a mans thoughts to raise bosses upon bono '!
 'For your sake,' replied the physician, at length losing his patience, trust that it is not; for if phrenology have any pow CT to interpret the hand writing of the AL mighty, you are one of the greatest villains in existence thief and an assassin! A general outcry of indignation arose in the room. The stranger proposed the election of the learned physiologist through the window, when the uproar and consterna- ton were checked by the sudden entrance of the master of the hotel.
 Gentlemen said he, I am sorry to
 acquaint you that great criminal is har- boured among you. The police are at the
 door, having information that an individual
 concerned in robbery of plate, which was effected last night in neighbo uring town, has been dining at this ordinary a Every eye was turned upon the furious
 stranger, and in few minutes he was in the
 custody of the police, the stolen plate hav-
 ing been found concealed in his baggage.
 But what was the amazement of all present when he was detected by a gendarme as the celebrated Robert St. Clair, the accomplice of Dammas Dupin, executed for the mur- der of an innkeeper and his wife at Mont morencyg St. Clair, after escaping from the galIeys at Rochefort, and lurking in Piedmont, Switzerland, and Germany, had managed to cvade the pursuit of justice, by spreading report that be had been found murdered on the Turkish frontier. After some days of solitary confinement in the dungeons of Valence, he made the most ample confession, and was eventually tried, condemned, and guillotined. Weneed not add that the fame of the chronological Doctor has risen to the highest pitch in his native province.-Court Journal.
 T0 Apprent;ces.-The only way for young man to prepare himself for useful ness, is to devote himself to study during his leisure hours. First, be industrious in your business; never complain that you are obliged to work, go to it with alacrily and cheerfulness, and it will become hab- it which will make you respected and be- loved by your master or employer; make it your business to see and promote his in- terest by taking care of his you will learn to take care of your own.
 Young men of the present day are too fond of getting rid of work they seek for easy and lazy employments, and frequent ly turn out to be poor miserable vagabonds. You must avoid all wishes to live without labor; labor is blessing rather than a curse, it makes men healthy, and procures them food, clothing, and every other neces- sary thing, and frees them from temptation to be dishonest. ''>t

Chardcter.-We almost judge without sec ing of the nature of the vegetable by its flavor; and as that which is unsayory exciles our dis gust, so the agreeable always awakens our preference and esteem. The virtuOus are full as well known by the scent of their benevo- lencc, and deeds of noble enterprise-as they immediately inspire love and admiration in the hearts of all around them while the un- principled. the corrupt, and the licentlous are avoided instantly by persons of sound taste and purity like the smell of those noxious plants which wait disease and disgust wher- ever their scent is carried. They who would drink of the pure fountain itself must first empty from their goblet the impure liquor 1t contains. 3 So they who would partake of the living waters of intelligence and virtue, must first divest themselves of their pernicious er- TOTS. habits and ttachments, before they can be filed with the dispositions, the blessings the enjoyments of the truly great and excel lent in society.--N. Y. Star.
 Extracting Teeth.-A Russian Dentist who boasted the euphonins cognomen of" Shiau- ber- Kremlen- Krof." adopted the very simple method of saving the expense of instruments by making all his patients pronounce his name .-an operation which not only removed the afflicted tooth. but usually carried half doz- en of it's neis hbors along with it.
 4 Hermit There lives in Ludlow, fnid- way between the Factories and Three Riv- CTS, man who has spent twenty years in a hole dug in side hill. His name is Has, kell, and is called Friday, some suppose, because he came to that place on Friday 1; we think it as likely that the name was giv- en on account of some fancied resemblance between him and Robinson Crusoe's man. He wears his beard long, cultivates n small garden, and receives presents of provisions from the people in tic neighborhood, and ofmoney from travellers. He betook him- .selfthither to get rid of wife who proved a Xantippo to his peace. He is about 65 years old.- Westfeld Journal.
 An 0necdote to the konor of Phremolo- gy-An anecdote has recently been made know6 to the world, through the medium of one of the criminal tribunals of the con- tinent, which we are inclined to record a. mong what talented young friend once reproached us for terming the remarkable scoincidences of phrenology.
 During the autumn of the year 1880, a large assemblage of persons sat down to the table d'hoie of the chief hotel at Valence, in Dauphine; and the sort of desultory conversation ensued which usually takes place among the heterogeneous guests of public ordinaries. Among the most re- spectable of the company was an eminent physician of Lyons, who is well known to have devoted . considerable portion of his time to the study of the doctrines of Doc stofs Gall and Spurzheiln. Being known to several ofthe company, he was of course atSAckGd on the subject of his favori,e hobby, and he defended it with equal spir- it and good hnmor, Exhilarated by the repast. several persons present requested the Doctor, at the close of the dessert. to
