Rum and Politics.

In Conway, N. H., lived an old fellow
named Spangle, who was one of the bluest
kind of Democrats, toe nails, eyebrows
and all, and to have intimated liz Span
gle's hearing that he could for momeat
have rendered "aid and comfort to the
opposite party, would have subjected the
rash intimator to the danger of kick at
least 1t was during the last Presidential
campaign that the Wings occupied a small
school house one evening for political
meeting, one of their great guns" hav-
ing come up from Concord to help them
That self-same evening Spangle had
taken a tremendous load of "bricks" into
his hat, and, all-unconscious of his inabil-
ity to bear up under the weight with
clear understanding, he wandered off in
the direction of the school house. He saw
the lights, and he heard the speaker,
and the idea that religious services were
being performed took SO firm hold up
on his mind that he could not refrain
from entering. Spangle had deal O.
religion in his heart, and whilom be had
"spoken in meeting" and always was he
warm and ardent in his ejaculatory re-
sponses during prayer and exhortation.
When Spangle entered, on the present
occasion, the speaker had dug the grave
of Democracy, and he was just beginning
to shove into it the whole party; but the
"bricks" in Spangle's hathad so thumped
and josiled his brain, and their dust had
so bedimmed his sight, that he yet Ia
bored under the highly consoling, but
yet erroneous, impression that he was to
a areligious meeting
The so-called Democracy of our land
is only fit for the devil and his angelsW
thundered the speaker.
Amep =, responded Spangle, over
whose mind the word deriI had sent
sort of quickening influence.
Democracy has found its grave !"
roared the spouter, in thunder tones,
God be pfdisel;" calculated Spang e,
vainly endeavoring to turn his eyes to-
wards where he Supposed the ceiling to
be- ....
The speaker didn't understand the
joke, so he kept on with his speech, but
his audience saw through the matter at
once, and, as Spangle still continued his
fervent, heart felt responses, they lost
most of the political food which was be-
ing SO lavishly spread before them.
Spangle still indulges occasionally, but
never when there is Whig meeting to
be held in the vicinity any time within a
week.-Carpet Bag.

Propriely of Speech.

You should be quite as anxious to talk
with propriety as YOU are to think, work,
sing, paint, or write according to the
most correct rules.
Always selectwords calculated to con-
vey an exact impression of your mean
ing.
Let'your articulation be easy, clear,
correct in accent, and suited in tone and
emphasis to your discourse.
Avoid muttering, mouthing, stutter-
ing, droning, cultural, nasal, or lisping
pronunciation.
Let your speech be neither too loud
nor too low (; but adjusted to the ear of
your companion. Try to prevent the
necessity of any person crying "wbatl"
WHAT"
Beware of such vulgar interpretations
as "you know" "I'll tell you what"
"Im blamed if it amt"
Learn when to use and when to omit
the aspirate h. This is an indispensable
mark of good education.
Pay strict regard to the rules of gram
mar even in private conversation. Ifyou
can not understand these rules, learn
them, whatever may be yOnr age or sta
tion.
Though you should always speak pleas
antly, do not mix your conversation with
loud bursts of laughter.
Never indulge in uncommon words, or
in Latin or French phrases, but choose
the best understood terms to express
your meaning.
Above all, let your conversation be in
tellectual, graceful, chaste, discreet, edify-
ing, and profitable.

0a Movy.-Money was first used by
Abraham, who bought tomb at Macpelah
for Sarah, with 80 pieces of silver, :, ,l39
years before Christ. 1t was made at
Argos e94 years before Christ. Silver
was coined at Rome 269 years before
Christ. Prior to this period brass money
was used there. Britain used coin %
years before Christ. .s
Money increased eighteen times its
value between 1890, and 1910, and twelve
times its value between 1880 and 1900.
Silver has increased thirty times its
value since the Norman conquest. A
pound then. was three times the quantity,
and ten times the value in purchasing
any commodity. Bank, signifying lit
orally Bench, from the custom of Italian
merchants, exposing money to lend on a
baaaco or 6ench was commenced about the

III a poisoning ease at Chilli has procured
disqualification of some interesting facts
respecting the. arsenic-eaters OF Lower
Austria and Syria. In both these prov
inces it appears to be common custom
among the peasantry to consume every
morning small portion of the deadly
poison, IN the same manner as the Eas-
tern world consumes opium. DR.. Tschu
di, the well-known traveller, publishes
an account of several cases which have
come to his knowledge 8 The habit does
not seem to be SO pernicious in its results
as that of opium eating. Its commenc-
ed by taking very small dose, say some
what less than half grain, every morn
ing. which is gradually increased to two
or three grains. The case of hale old
farmer is mentioned, whose morning whet
of arsenic reached the incredible quaint
ity offour grains. The effect it produces
is very curious. The arsenic eaters grow
fat and ruddy, so much SO that the prac-
tice is adopted by lovers of both sexes
in order to please their sweethearts. 1t
relieves the lungs and head very much
when mounting steep hills and entering
