A girl, young, pretty, but above all, gifted
with an al, of adorable candor, lately presented
herself before a certain parish lawyer:

marry me in spite of himself How shall pro-

The gentleman Of the bar had, of course, a
sufficient elastic conscience. lie reflected a
moment, then being sure no third person over
heard him, replied unhesitatngly.
"Alademoisele, according to oUr law you al

slons alone with him, then you can 90 before d
judge and swear he is your lover"
"And that will suffice, Monsieur!"
"Yes, Mademoisel.e, with one further condi

"Well?'
"TLat you produce witnesses who will make

A fortnight afterwards the young person,
more naive and candid than ever. knocked dis
creetly at the door of her counsel's ROOM No
sooner was she within than she flung herself
into chair saying, that she mounted the stairs
so rapidly, and that emotion made her breath
less. Her counsel endeavored to reassure her,
and made her inhale Salts and even proposed
to release her garments.

A Terrible Death.

A master bricklayer, attached to the Stanton
Iron Works, in South Derbyshire, England
while effecting some repairs on the wall of a
furnace, was preciptated from his position, by
the giving Way of some bricks, into the middle
of a mass Of molten lead! The operatives who
saw him STOPPING with his hands and feet into
the red hot metal, could do nothing more than
pour vast quantities Of water upon the fire and
upon the person Of their unfortunate fellow
workman. When the heat Of the furnace was
somewhat subdued, so as to allow Of access to
the body, all that could be found Of the remains
was single shriyeled fragment of the trunk
two or three feet in length.

There is an Eastern tale of a magician who
discovered by his incantatons that the Phi
losopher's stone lay on the bank of a certain
river but was unable to determine its locality
more definitely He therefore strolled along
the bank with piece of iron, to which he ap
piled successfully all the pebbles he found
As one after another they produced no change
in the metal, he flung them into the stream
At last he hit upon the object ofhis search and
the iron became gold in his hand. But also
he had become SO accustomed to the "toucE
and 90" movement, that the real stone was
involuntary thrown into the river after the 9TH

the price of fuel derived from that source as 10 war
rant the conclusion that the day is not far distant
when the inhabitants of those States must look to
their coal mines alone for the supply of all fuel need

used or required for these purposes but It is
fact that the PEesent yearly tHeTcGss in suppiy OF ore
half million Of tons of coal does not meet the yearly
increasing demand for that description offuel upon
the Atlantic seaboard. And striking feature IN
regard the increase of supply in 1888 over that OF
1852 for the whole Atlantic seaboard IS that only
ouethrd of the entire increase of 100000 tons was

opinion that the demand for coal upon the Atlantic

100000 tons, and that 100000 tons of coal could be
dispossd of over and above the amount say 100000
