"THRKR CHEERS FOR THE PRoTEs-

rAxr LADIES" On Sunday, recently.
during the high mass at twelve, in the
village of Clontarff, Ireland, three ladies
of the Protestant faith were obliged to
take shelter from heavy shower. The
officiating priest, knowing who they
we're, and wishing to appear respectful
to them, stopped down to his attendant
who was on his knees, and whispered to
him, " Three chairs for the Protestant
ladies' The clerk, who was rather an
ignorant man, stood up and shouted out
to the congregation, "'Three cheers for
the Protestant ladies !" which the con-
gregation Immediately took up, and
gave three hearty cheers, while The
clergyman stood dumb founded.

A SOCIAL BEAR.

The following curious circumstance,
which is said to be true in every par
ticular, is related in ''Lloyd's Scandi-
navian Adventures" -e
Two women, with four children, were
tending their cattle at shearing far
from home. It was the duty of one
woman to tend the cattle in, the forest,
while the other occupied herself with
household matters, and in looking after
the children. 1t so happened, however,
on the 23d Of last September that while
one Of the women, as usual, watch
ed the cattle, the other absented herself
for short time on visit to neighbours,
leaving the children altogether to them
selves. f
She had not been long away before
they perceived two large grown animals,
which they took to be cows, on the out
side Of the fence bordering the patch
Of pasture ground and contiguous to the.
hut. All children are curious and indif-
ferent in danger. Withou. considera-
ton, therefore, they climbed over the
fence, and made up to the creatures.
When the animals became aware of the
near approach of the children, the larg-
err of the two compelled the smaller
one to lie down at the foot of tall pine,
and then crouched by its side as if to
protect it from danger Whereupon
. ~ least of the children 1.-TWO years Of
fage) without hesitation toddled directly
up to the animals, and laid itself down
likewise, with its head resting on the
belly of the larger one, humming at the
same time some nursery song, as if re-
posing on its mothers lap r
The other children remained, the
while, quiet spectators Of the scene.
When, however, the Oldest had lain a
little while, it came to the conclusion
that it was not COW, but bear, AZ
was the fact, the child was toying with,
and she became sore afrighted. Mean
while, the infant who could not remain
long in the same position, presently rose
from his hairy couch, gathered some
blueberries growing hard by, and gave
them to his bedfellow, the bear, who
immedi ately ate them out of the babes
hand The child ext plucked sprig
from neighboring bush, and offered it
to the beast, which bit it in two, allow
ing the child to retain one half.

ONLY A CHILD.

ssWho is to be buried here ?" said [
to the sexton. "Only child, ma am -
Only child oh! had you ever
been mother-had you nightly pillow
ed that little golden head-had you
slept the sweeter for that little velvet
hand upon your breast--had you wait
ed for the first intelligent glance from
those blue eyes-had watched its slum-
bers, tracing the features of him who
stole your girlish heart away-had you
wept widows tear over its unconcious
head-had your desolate heart gained
courage from that little piping voice to
wrestle with the jostling crowd for dali
ly bread-had its loving smiles and pratt
ling words been sweet recompense for
such sad exposure-had the lonely flu
ture been frightened by the hope of
that young arm to lean upon, that bright
eye for your guiding star-had you new
er framed plan or known a hope or
fear, of which that child was not part.
If there was naught else on earth left
for you to love-if disease came, and
its eyes grew dim and food and rest,
and sleep were forgotten in your anx-
ious fears-if you paced the floor hour
by hour, with that fragile burden when
your very touch seemed to give COM
fort and healing to that little quivering
frame had the star of hope set at last
then, had you hung over its dying pill,
low, when the strong breast you could
have wept on was in the grave, where
your child was hastening-had you
caught alone, its last faint cry for ''help,"
you could not give; had its last!hutter-
ing sigh breathed out on your breast
Oh could you have said-'Tis only
child!

GETTING A BABY BY "HooK OR

little boy, two years old, the son Of Mr..
Pasback of Natchez, recently. He was

wife had been long married, were with
