MAPPING IN THE CARS.

The car was full Of passengers,

For had just awakened from
An unrefreshing slumber,
When lady who sat facing mo,
Directly met my eye,
But turned away Immediately,
And smiled-I knew not why.
When youthful folks, who strangers are,
Are seated face to face,
In the silence of railroad car
A grave and formal place
Their wandering syes will sometimes m eel
BY some strange fascination,
And they cannot keep their faces str aight,
Though dying with vexation.
Simpletons there doubtless are,
Whose mouths are always stretching
But the guileless mirth of maidens' eyes
And dimpled checks is catching:
First she laughed and then laughed
couldn't say what at;
Then she looked grave and Hooked grav O.,
And then she laughed at that.
She endeavored TO repress her mirth,
But couldn't hold it half in,
For with face concealed behind book,
She almost died laug hing.
She pouted when she found her lips,
Determined on smile,
But twas very plain the pretty rogue
Was laughing all the while.
Thus happily the moments few, .
To me at least of course;
Though when she saw me smiling too,
1t made the matter worse.
md when at last left the car,
caught her laughing eye,
Aud had one more good grin before

And with feelings of regret;
Those brilliant eyes felt assured,
I never rcouId forget.
And when arrived, vaiisc in hand,
Ipaused, I can't tell why,
Before mirror on 4 stand,
And gazed with curious eye.
My cravat was turned half round or more,
And shocked was to find
That my hat was badly jammed before,
And the rim Turned up behind
Then while in hlste my room sought,
I swore along the stairs

The WEST POINT MGLrrARY ACADEMY
Some views presented in an extract from
Colonel Benton's forthcoming history,
which appear in the New York Post, up
on the subject of Military education, are
torcible and interesting. For nearly twen-
ty years he was at the head of the mill
tary committee in the United States SEN
ate, and is, therefore, officially familiar
with the defective organization Of the West
Point Academy. He shows the the pre-
sent system tends to make a
governmental instead Of national army +:

Senate, as ordinate branch of the 90

soldier into mercenary, and that It en-

clearly that, in all these particulars, the
administration of the academy has bean
changed since itreceived the counternancc
and appreciation of Washington. The
mischief of which he complains. he saws,
dates from the act of 1919. We are Glad
the subject has finally been brought be-
fore the country by one so competent to

THE CUrEsEss OF LAWYER

About ninety years ago, the celebra-
ted Counsellor Costello was in his ze-
NTH at the Irish bar, where he was un-
rivalled for acuteness and propensity to
brogue. His practice lay considerably in
the Criminal Courts, where by his inge-
nuity he enabled most deserving culprits
to eyadc the well earned punishment of

Newgate in a hurry, and in case of
great emergency. The safe or strong
box of Glendour IL Co., had been plum
dered to an immense amount. Suspicion
had fallen on the deputy cashier, who
was, in consequence, arrested and sent to
prison, inside of the walls of which he
was advised by his fellow prisoners whom
on his entrance he had conciliated by CO.

who, after a little hesitation. confessed
that he was able to pay the Counsellor a
thousand guineas if he procured his ac-

Counsellor took his leave.
Costello Immediately repaired to the
Crown office as it was then called in
Dublin, from which his client had been
committed. The sitting magistrate was
still on the bench.

the Counsellor as he entered-'is there
