THE FIRST SPREE,

- Never was drunk bat once in my life, :"
said a chap III my, hearing, never mean
to be again" The street seemed to be
very steep, and | lifted my legs at every
step as if was getting up stairs. Several
cart wheels were making evolutions in nv
brain, and at one time | fancied that nv
head was large carving and turning es-
adjustment, the lathes of which | was
keeping IN motion with my own feet.
could not conceive what was the reason
that the town had turned into such an
enormous hill, and what made it worse.
was, ii seemed all the while growing high
er, and threatened to pitch over me. Stop,
stop, thought |, and I'll head this old hill
yet, or At least it shan't head me. SO |
turned round TO 90 down and get at the
bottom, but hang me if the town did not
turn round with me, heading me all the
time, and presenting a bluff in front of me.
Well, sure enough the ground flew up and
struck me or the forehead, and soon as
the stars cleared away | commenced
climbing with my hands and knees. The
next thing | saw was a big brick house
coming full split round the corner and
believe ii ran over me, for | don't remem-

ALLTGiTORSs NESTS,

They resemble, says Lyell, in his I" Sec
ond Visit TO America" haycocks, about
four feet high, and five in diameter at the
base, being constructed of grass and herb
age. First they deposite one layer Of eggs
on a floor Of mortar, and having covered
thls with second stratum of mud and
hefbage, eight inches thick lay another
sett OF egg upon that, and so on to the TOP,
there beng commonly from one to two
hundred eggs in a nest. With their tails
they then beat down round the nest the
dense grass and reeds five feet high. to
prevent the approach of unseen enemies.
The female watches her eggs until they
are all hatched by the heat of the sun. and
then takes her brood under her care. de-
lending them and providing for their sub
sislence. DIR. Luzcnberger, of New Or
leans, told me that he once packed up one
OF these nests, with the eggs, in box for
The Museum Of ST. Petersburg. but was
recommended before he closed il 10 see
that there was no danger of any of the
eggs being hatchcd on the voyage. On
opening one, young alligator walked out.
and was soon followed bv tae rest. about 4
hundred, which he fed in his house, where
they went up and down the stairs whin-
nlng and barking like young puppies.
They are voracious, yet their growth was
50 slow as to confirm him in the opinion
that individuals which have attained the
largest size are Of very great age. though
whether they live for three centuries. as
some pretend, must be decided by future

MY MOTHER DEAR,

There was place in childhood,
Which ! remember we'll
And there a voice of sweetest tone,
Bright fairy tales did tell
And gentle words and fond embrace
Were given with Joy to me,
When was in that happy place,
Upon my mothers knee
My mother dear
My gentle, gentle mother,
When fairy tales were ended,
" Good night' she softly said,
And kissed, and laid me down to sleep,
Within my tiny bed
And holy words she taught me there:
Methinks ] yet can see
Her angel eyes, as close knelt
Beside my mothers knee.
In the sickness Of my childhood,
The Perils Of my prime,
The sorrows of my ripper years,
The cares Of every time
When doubt or danger weighed me down
Then, pleading all for me,
1t was fervent prayer TO Heaven
That bent my mothers knee.

THE PORCELAIN MaysF.CTrRE.

The number of workmen EMPLOYED 10
finish one article of chinaware is almost
incredible; single cup IS said, from the
kneading Of the paste, to pass through
seventy hands before it is ready for sale ::
each individual, in its progress, performing
as little as he possibly can for the remu-
ncration he receives. The Chinese deco
rate the exterior OF their dwellings. and
their pleasure grounds, with enormous
pieces OF porcelain, both III the shape of
vases and figures; these are formed each
IN several pieces, and each piece or portion
IN mould; the paste IS first well pressed
into the moulds, which are then placed be-
fore fire for short time. to detach the
figures from their moulds; the various
portions are then united and cemehted to-
gcther, the joints are carefully smoothed off
by the chIsel, and are vanished and painted
over, after which they are imperceptibIe.
The designs traced upon their porcelain or
CHINA are very inferior, but the colors used
by the artists who paint these designs are
far superior to amy European coloring.-
The division Of labor in embcllishing and
painting the chnaware is equal to that en-
ploycd in the formation of it; one traces
figures, another flowers, third paints the
figures, and a fourth the fowers-in fact,
there Is an artist for delineating, and an
other for painting each particular object:
each goes on IN one beaten track, without
