VALUE OF PRECISION IN DEscRIPrToS.-The
quotes story which may serve to elucidste
this:-
The Mayor of False having one night run
foul Of a citizen Of good town of Falise-in
those days there was neither gas nor oil
lamps-the mayer gave orders next morning
that no citizen should GO out at night withou,
a lantern. The following night the Mayor,
going his wonted rounds, ran against the same
citizen:
"You haven't read the ordinances, you stu.
pid sollow," said the Mayor, in a passion.
eyes, have" said the Norman, sand there
is my lantern"
"But there's no candle in it," rejoined the
Mayor.
"rhc ordinance said nothing about that
replied the scrubulous citizen.
The next day appeared a new ordinance
cnjoining the citizens to put candles in their
lanterns. At nightfall. the Mayor anxious
TO see whether his orders were obeyed, wen,
his accustomed rounds again, and once more
run foul of the luckless bourgeois.
81 have you this iime,", said the Mayor in q
fury. "you hsve no lantern"
Excuse me, here it ISL
"But no candle it."
10 ! but have, and here it is" and out OF
the lantern he pulled candle unlighted.
"But it isn't lighted" resumed the exasper
ated Mayor.
"You said nothing about lighting the can
dies" quickly rejoined the bourgeois.
So another. ordinance had to be issued, en-.
joining the citizens to light the candles i.
their lanterns.

armed himself with a revolver and went in

Of the Lady Pike. Capt. T. fired at and
missed Frame the first shot. He then fired
second time, which took effect In Archie's

Pretty THoUGHrs.-What is crime! A
wre,ched vagabond travelling from place to
place in fruitless endeavor to escape from JUS
tice, who is constantly engaged in hot pursuit:
q foe for virtue and happiness, though at times
the companion of poor innocence, which 10 too
often made to euffer for the guilty.
What is thought! A fountain from which
flows all good and evil intentions-a mental
fuid, electrical in the force and rapidity Of
movements, silently flowing unseen within its
own secret avenue; yet it is the controlling
power Of all animated matter, and the chief
main.spring of all our actions.
What 10 happiness! A butterfly that roves
from flower to flower in the vast garden of
existence, and which is eagerly pursued by the
multitude in vain hope Of obtaining the prize
yet il continually eludes their grasp.
What is fashion! A beautiful envelope for
mortality. presenting gittering and polished
exterior, the appearance Of which gives no
certain indication of the real value of what lie
contained therein.
What is wit! A sparkling beverage that is
highly exhiliarating and agreeable when par
taken at the expense Of Others; but when used
at our own cost it becomes bitter and un-
pleasant.
What is knowledge! A key that unravels
all mysteries, which unlocks the entrance,
and discovers new, unseen, and untrcdden
paths in the hitherto unexplodcd field Of sci.
ence and literature.

DoS'T WoRK.-The Logansport Qndana)
Journal thus speaks of the practical working
Of the new liquor law in that region:
"The Indiana law, there at last, has caused
more drinking than ever. More whisky ia
drank than at any previous time within our
recollection. More rows occur, and more wo-
men and children are abused by drunken men
than ever before.
"Whisky is bought by the gallon by large
number OF people, and peddled out to small
circles ofcustomers at private houses, withou,
any possible hindrance from the law.
"Men get drunk and remain so longer than
wadtheir habit before-it was now big drunk
or none. 1t works like bad law"
