BETTING BY PRoxY.-Just after the
State election in Pennsylvania, Mr. Smith,
warm Cass man, met his friend Mr.
Jones, an enthusiastic Taylor man.
"Jones," said Smith, ''the election Of
Johnson does not increase Taylor's chan
ces in Pennsylvania.
ayes it does,' answered Smith.
"l'll bet you hundred dollars that Cass
carries the state" cried Smith.
s'Done,' exclaimed Jones, "But," he
added, after moments hesitation, elf we
bet we lose our votes"
$50 we shall,' said Smith.
"I'll tell you what Jones cried, his
face Frightening up-"I'll tell you what
may be done. My wife shall call upon
your wife, and bet with her.
sGood,' said Smith.
Home went Jones.
my dear, Mrs Smith wants to bet a
hundred dollars with you that Cass will
carry Pennsylvania"
"Mrs Smith bet hundred dollars with
me - exclaimed the astonished lady.
ayes, and if you want TO bet, there is
the money. Go round this afternoon and
see her, put the stakes in the hand of a
lady lriend.'
The two ladies met, and the money was
deposited. On Thursday last when the
result was known, Jones told his wife to
go and draw the money she had won.-
The laly was not slow in obeying her hus-
band that time, and before an hour the two
hundred dollars, exchanged into halfeagles
were glittering through the intersticcs of
her beautiful purse.
When Jones came home at night, he
said to his wife:
"Well, my dear, did you getthe money!"
"Yes!" was the reply.
"I'll trouble you for it darling, if you
please"
"Trouble me for what 20
"For the money | won of Mr. Smith. !"
"You won? did you bet, Mr. Smith p
ono, no-that is-yes. I bet in fact,
though to save my vote: l made you the
agent" answered Jones with visible en-
barrassment.
81 cannot consent my dear husband, .
said the lady with great dignity, "to be a
PARTY in any violation or evasion of the
law. l cannot on your account-you
whose honor is so dear to me. And
shall therefore keep the money, in order
that | may still retain my respect for
law flowing, a law-honoring and law obey
ing husband. Dear Jones, kiss me-"
The lady was as good as her word, and
Jones discovered that in his attempt to
whip the devil round the stump, he had
lost a clean hundred.

An affecting incident is related by
Donegal paper. A few nights since, q
young boy and his sister returning from
Pettigo, homeward, had to cross moun-
tain. The night was dark and stormy,
and they lost their way. Next morning
both were found dead from the exposure.
The boy and girl lay side by side, the lat
ter with her arm round her brothers neck;
and her flannel petticoat, removed from
her own person, was wrapped round his
feet. Thus did the poor creature, perhaps
sacrifice her own life in vain effort 10
sustain that of her brothers..

At soiree in London, the conversation
turned upon literature. A Scotch gentle
man present was very enthusiastic upon
the subject of his eminent literary coun-
trymen, when an Englishrnan remarked,
II suppose you will call Milton Scotch
man next" He very drily replied, II cam
ma exactly say that but Milton was anon
of sic rare talent and astonishing genius,
that should be ma at all surprised to ken
that he was Scotchman."

We hear of a remarkable case of recti-
tude in humble lie. A lady in - street
gave to poor girl dress belonging TO
her daughter. When the daughter, who
was absent, returned, she told her mother
tina, the dress had in the pocket $40 bill
which had been given her to keep for him
by a younger brother. The next day the
girl to whom the dress was given came to
restore the money =; she had not dared to
show it to her parents for fear that their
poverty might induce them to retain it.
